The Beacon City Council will continue a public hearing on Oct. 5 on amending the zoning code to allow hotels in the district bordering Fishkill Creek. The proposal arose this summer after the owner of the former Tioronda Hat Works Factory at 555 South Ave. said he plans to construct a hotel. Council members said on Monday (Sept. 21) that they are amenable to hotels in the district, which already permits bed-and-breakfasts and inns (defined as a hotel with 10 or fewer rooms). If the council adopts the zoning amendments, it must still approve a concept plan for any proposal in the district, including at the Hat Works site, before the Planning Board reviews construction details. The discussion veered into affordable housing after Gorton accused city officials of pushing hotels "down our throats because a developer wants to develop there now." She asked for a moratorium on building until the council decides whether to increase the percentage of below-market-rate units required of new developments. "Let's be honest about what we need," Gorton said. "We're saying we want affordable housing; we're saying we are about community. These hotels are not about community." The issue will be on an agenda in the coming months, Swanson said. Other council members did not voice support for a moratorium. The council talked Monday about whether a hotel should be part of a mixed-use development, including potentially requiring a residential component, but there was no consensus. The Fishkill Creek zoning allows single- and mixed-use development with at least 25 percent required to be commercial. The council continued its examination of short-term rental regulations on Monday, aiming to better enforce the requirement that hosts register their sites with the city. Changes being considered include (1) grandfathering previously registered accessory dwelling units but allowing no new ADUs to be used as STRs; (2) giving the building inspector enforcement flexibility in unusual situations, such as when a family member on active military duty had occupied an STR; and (3) increasing fines for noncompliant hosts. Instead of capping the number of STRs that can be registered, Building Inspector Bryan Murphy would be asked to report periodically on enforcement. Kyriacou said he has asked Airbnb to eliminate non-registered listings from its site but has not received a response. "I don't think we should do more than post a list of the registered ones and expect the rest to occur automatically," he said, adding that he wants the regulations to include a mechanism to "chase down a website that doesn't do it." The idea of requiring a waiting period before a new property owner could list an STR came up again, but City Attorney Christian Gates said that would likely be challenged in court. Sergei Krasikov noted that "we do allow people to represent our community at this table without an imposed amount of time they have to live in the community," referring to Kyriacou, who was elected to the City Council in 1993, a year after moving to Beacon. A public hearing will be held on Oct. 19. A public hearing on proposed parking restrictions on Tioronda Avenue will continue on Oct. 5. The changes would ban parking on the west side of Tioronda for 20 feet in both directions from its intersection with Van Nydeck Avenue and 25 feet north of its intersection with Vine Street. Parking would also be eliminated on the west side of Tioronda from Vine Street to Wolcott Avenue. On the east side of the street, there would be no parking from 140 feet from Main Street to Wolcott. The council tabled changes proposed on West Main Street until a mixed-use development there is occupied. Two other public hearings scheduled for Monday were postponed to Oct. 5. The first would increase penalties for violations of the city's zoning, fire prevention and building codes, including for noncompliant short-term rentals. The other is a proposal to allow mid-year salary increases for appointed employe...

So does Swanson need a haircut or not!?

In this special Athlete Highlight episode, we are back with Cub Swanson & Dr. Sohrab Gollogly - bringing together two sides of the surgical experience: the athlete who underwent surgery and the surgeon who performed it.Professional mixed martial artist and UFC Hall of Famer Cub Swanson joins his surgeon, orthopedic spine specialist Dr. Sohrab Gollogly, for a conversation about endoscopic spine surgery—from the athlete's perspective and the surgeon's point of view.In This Episode: Part TwoIn the next episode, we'll continue the discussion and shift our focus to postoperative recovery and return to play following endoscopic spine surgery.What does recovery look like for a professional fighter? When can an athlete begin training again? And what does it take to get back to the highest level of competition?Meet Our GuestsCub SwansonCub Swanson is a veteran professional mixed martial artist and one of the most respected featherweights of his generation.Swanson turned professional in 2004 and became a standout in the WEC before making his UFC debut in 2011. Known for his exciting and aggressive fighting style, he has faced many of the biggest names in MMA and has built a professional career spanning more than two decades.He was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame's Fight Wing in 2022.Outside the Octagon, Cub is a father of three and is passionate about mentoring the next generation of fighters and giving back to the sport that helped transform his life.Dr. Sohrab GolloglyDr. Sohrab Gollogly is a fellowship-trained, board-certified orthopedic spine surgeon with more than 20 years of experience treating spinal disorders.Based in Monterey, California, Dr. Gollogly specializes in minimally invasive and endoscopic spine surgery, with particular interests in motion preservation and avoiding unnecessary fusion surgery.He completed his medical training at the University of Washington, orthopedic surgery residency at the University of Utah, and advanced fellowship training in adult spine surgery in Lyon, France, as well as pediatric spine surgery in San Diego.Dr. Gollogly is also a founding member of the EndoSpine Academy at Balgrist University Hospital in Zurich, where he is involved in surgeon education and the advancement of endoscopic spine techniques.Why This Conversation MattersEndoscopic spine surgery continues to evolve, and for athletes, the potential advantages of minimally invasive approaches extend beyond the operating room.For a professional fighter, the goals may include more than relieving pain or treating a structural problem. Motion, strength, function, recovery time, and the ability to return to a high-demand sport all matter.By hearing directly from both the athlete and surgeon, this episode explores what happens when those goals intersect—and what the decision-making process looks like when the stakes are a professional career.The Sports Docs PodcastHosted by Dr. Ashley Bassett and Dr. Catherine LoganSubscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube to stay up to date on the latest in sports medicine.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving us a review or comment—it helps other sports medicine professionals and athletes find the show.Have feedback or a topic you'd like us to cover?Email: thesportsdocspod@gmail.comInstagram: @thesportsdocspod

News: Construction walls are up as a piece of Disney California Adventure history is coming down as the Paradise Gardens gazebo is removed. The structure originally opened in 2001 as Santa Rosa Seed and Supply in the park's former Bountiful Valley Farm area before being relocated to Paradise Gardens in 2011. Disney has not announced what will replace it, but construction walls suggest more changes could be on the way. – https://www.micechat.com/444728-disneyland-update-paradise-gardens-gazebo-shootin-exposition-mickey-souvenir-ticket/ Other construction continues across the Disneyland Resort, with walls and scaffolding visible in several areas. In Disneyland Park, refurbishment projects are underway in Adventureland, Rancho del Zocalo, Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree, and parts of Tomorrowland. At Disney California Adventure, exterior work continues on The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure, while the walkway between Avengers Campus and Cars Land has recently reopened after an extended closure. Downtown Disney remains a hub of activity as work continues on the future Porto's Bakery location, along with exterior refurbishments at several nearby shops and restaurants. – https://www.micechat.com/444728-disneyland-update-paradise-gardens-gazebo-shootin-exposition-mickey-souvenir-ticket/ New aerial photos show the four ticket booths in the Disneyland esplanade have been completely demolished. These booths are being removed to make way for the new pedestrian bridge that will cross Harbor Boulevard. The project will connect the esplanade to a future parking structure and transportation hub. The four recently removed booths join two others that were previously demolished, leaving only two ticket booths remaining in the esplanade area. Those two booths remain open, and guests can also purchase tickets in person at the Lost and Found booth. Demolition equipment remains on site as work continues. The new parking and transportation complex is planned for the current Cast Member parking lot and will include approximately 6,000 parking spaces, electric vehicle charging stations, rideshare and shuttle facilities, and security screening. The project is part of the broader DisneylandForward expansion initiative – https://wdwnt.com/2026/09/aerial-views-reveal-totality-of-ticket-booth-teardown-at-disneyland/ The Anaheim Ducks and Disneyland Resort are expanding their partnership. Beginning with the 2026-27 NHL season, the iconic Disneyland Resort logo will appear on both sides of Ducks players' helmets during regular season games, playoffs, and team practices.The partnership celebrates the team's Disney roots. The franchise was originally founded by The Walt Disney Company in 1993 as the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, inspired by the hit Disney film. The new sponsorship also includes arena signage, social media content, and a Disneyland-sponsored Ducks home game later this season. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disneyland-resort-logo-anaheim-ducks-helmets-2026-27/ After a two-month refurbishment, Disneyland's Frontierland Shootin' Exposition has officially reopened. The classic attraction closed in July for what turned out to be a refresh of the historic shooting gallery, including new paint, restored decorative elements, and polished rifles.The good news for fans is that the experience remains largely unchanged. The interactive Old West town, with more than 100 targets, is back in operation, and the price is still just 50 cents for approximately 25 shots. While Disneyland continues to preserve the 1957 attraction, Walt Disney World's version was removed in recent years. – https://www.micechat.com/444728-disneyland-update-paradise-gardens-gazebo-shootin-exposition-mickey-souvenir-ticket/ SnackChat: Beignet Day – https://www.micechat.com/444728-disneyland-update-paradise-gardens-gazebo-shootin-exposition-mickey-souvenir-ticket/ Discussion Topic: Disneyland Ambassador Connie Swanson Lane Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services -- the largest line item in our state's budget -- has seen a lot of change in recent years. The newest leader of that agency recognizes it, and wants to change the trajectory. "I am the sixth person in three years to be sitting in this job," Conner Swanson, who was appointed to the position by Gov. Kelly Armstrong on August 13, told us on this episode of Plain Talk. "So, I do understand to your point that there has been some turnover here and it is a big job. But I think the thing that I'm ready to bring is some stability for folks here." One of the first big hurdles he has to get over is meeting a call for 10% reductions in state budgets from the boss. Swanson said part of that will be a "back to basics" approach. "I think sometimes, in especially with this agency and how large it is, is people want us to be everything to everybody. And if you try to be everything to everybody, you're not good at much," he said. "So what we need to do is really focus on what are the core services that we need to provide." But even as there's a push to bring budgets down to something sustainable, there's also demand for services. A waitlist for a childcare program, the result of a dramatic underestimation in demand for it, was the subject of some consternation during the recent special legislative session, which ultimately didn't take the issue up. Swanson points out that the state has nearly quadrupled its outlays for childcare in recent years. "We have increased childcare funding since 2021. It was gone from about 30 million to now 115 million. So when we talk about this, we have increased the child care funding in the CCAP program by a lot and we have covered a lot of families," he said, referring to the Child Care Assistance Program. When pressed about the shortfall in meeting demand for child care assistance, Swanson said the shortfall is smaller than what's been reported -- $36 million instead of $100 million -- and that we need to zoom out a bit to consider our approach to the challenge. He argued that solving childcare requires looking beyond government subsidies to examine licensing regulations, ensuring government isn't being overly burdensome on providers while still protecting children and maintaining quality care. Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I assess the outcomes from the special session, discuss some crude comments from Democratic-NPL party chairman Adam Goldwyn, and take some feedback from a listener struggling with gambling addiction.

Nothing prepares you for another morning of daily comedy quite like sleeping through THREE alarms, which is exactly how Lern nearly started her day.That kicks off a very serious investigation into how everybody wakes up. Lern prefers a gradual approach, with increasingly aggressive alarms and songs like “Spooky.” Rizz and Rafe apparently prefer waking up like a nuclear submarine has just discovered an incoming torpedo. Moon wants something gentle enough that his heart doesn't immediately file for workers' comp.Which alarm actually works? Something soothing? “Eye of the Tiger”? “Smells Like Teen Spirit”? A drill sergeant screaming at you while beating trash cans together?Anything is better than accidentally incorporating your alarm into your dream and waking up ten minutes after you were supposed to be a functioning adult.But why bother waking up at all? Apparently AI might kill us by 2030.Rizz brings in warnings attributed to people who have worked inside the AI industry about self-improving artificial intelligence, the difficulty of controlling increasingly capable systems and the possibility that humanity could become collateral damage without AI ever needing to become “evil.” Think less Terminator intentionally hunting Sarah Connor and more humans becoming the anthill somebody paved over while building a highway.That launches Rizz, Lern, Moon and Rafe into a surprisingly deep debate about artificial intelligence, regulation, infrastructure, jobs, humanoid robots, technological progress and whether we should be optimistic about what comes next or start practicing our best Matrix battery impressions.Naturally, this leads directly into death.Because this is daily comedy, and apparently we have transitions now.If somebody handed you an envelope containing the exact date you'll die, would you open it? What about how you die? Would you want to know who attends your funeral? The biggest opportunity you unknowingly missed? Or who secretly has a crush on you?Everyone has a different answer until the crew lands on the most terrifying hypothetical imaginable: learning that you will eventually die by meatball.Do you stop eating meatballs forever? Does avoiding them even matter if fate has already decided? Does a waiter eventually drop a tray and launch your destiny directly into your mouth? Suddenly Rizz is spending the rest of his life looking over his shoulder while tiny meatballs roll ominously down the street behind him.The funeral discussion somehow gets even better when Rafe introduces the concept of a “coffin confessor” — someone hired before your death to attend your funeral and settle scores with people on your behalf. Rizz immediately sounds like a potential customer.Then everybody debates missed opportunities, secret crushes and Moon's claim that when a relationship is truly right, marriage doesn't necessarily have to be hard. Rafe quickly translates this into “get divorced today,” which is definitely not what Moon said but is much funnier for everyone else.Thankfully, National TV Dinner Day arrives before the relationship segment can destroy any actual marriages.The crew takes a nostalgia trip through Swanson fried chicken dinners, Banquet Salisbury steak, Hungry Man turkey dinners, Kid Cuisine, Stouffer's mac and cheese, Bagel Bites and the scorching brownie that somehow always had one renegade kernel of corn trapped inside it.That inspires perhaps the greatest terrible business idea in Rizz Show history: Stepfather's Pizza.Imagine a restaurant built around divorced-dad energy. TV dinners. Pizza. Old TVs at every booth playing MAS*H, Cheers, the Weather Channel and cheaply produced World War II documentaries. Dim lighting. Patchouli. Semi-folded laundry. Smoke alarms chirping because nobody replaced the battery.It's not a restaurant. It's an atmosphere of mild disappointment.The crew also celebrates the upcoming Cheesecake Factory location at West County Mall while trying to identify exactly what architectural theme Cheesecake Factory has been going for all these years. Egyptian? Greek? Mediterranean? Haunted Indiana Jones warehouse? The answer appears to be “yes.”From alarm-clock trauma to AI extinction, meatball destiny, funeral grudges, marriage debates and frozen Salisbury steak, this episode somehow turns existential dread into daily comedy — which is probably healthier than actually solving any of these problems.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Chuck Warren, co-host of Breaking Battlegrounds, heard every Saturday at 9 AM right here on 960 The Patriot, joins Seth in studio for the full hour. Boad Swanson, author of the newly-released book Great Souled Men: Reclaiming Aristotle’s Vision for Building Character and Virtue joins Chuck and Seth by phone to talk about why he wrote the book and his dream for a society that appreciates the virtues once again. Great Souled Men explores Aristotle's timeless principles and touches on the importance of virtues such as temperance, truthfulness, and ambition, which are essential for building strong character. The three gentlemen discuss how these values are often overlooked in modern society, leading to a lack of purpose and direction among young men.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Real Build Live, host Bill Reiman sits down with Duane Swanson of Raymond Building Supply (RBS) for an insightful conversation about what it really takes to build lasting success in the Southwest Florida construction industry.From the importance of strong builder-subcontractor relationships to the evolving responsibilities of today's trades, Bill and Duane share decades of experience working together and discuss how trust, communication, and accountability have shaped their long-term partnership.Whether you're a custom home builder, general contractor, subcontractor, supplier, or construction professional in Fort Myers, Naples, Cape Coral, Bonita Springs, Estero, Punta Gorda, Sarasota, or anywhere in Southwest Florida, this episode is packed with practical insights you can apply to your business.In this episode you'll learn:Why builder and subcontractor relationships matter more than everCurrent trends shaping the Southwest Florida construction marketThe evolving role and responsibilities of subcontractorsHow suppliers and builders create successful long-term partnershipsKeys to communication, accountability, and project successLessons learned from years of working together in SWFLRaymond Building Supply has been serving Florida's building industry since 1957, providing lumber, trusses, windows, doors, cabinetry, millwork, and building materials to contractors and builders throughout Southwest Florida.

In 1996, fresh out of high school, Ben Swanson teamed up with his older brother Chris and their friends Eric Weddle and Jonathan Cargill to start a record label. The label began in the Swanson's house. Their first release was that of fellow North Dakotan, June Panic, but the partnership that set them on their spiritual path was with Jason Molina of Songs: Ohia and, later, Magnolia Electric Co. Reliable legend has it that when the Secretly boys originally reached out to Molina, he told them they could put his music out on the condition that they show up at his performance in a NYC record store. Their subsequent road trip changed indie rock history. And it all started, and continues, right here in Bloomington, the town where everything is better than fine and nothing can go wrong.

Romey Swanson is the Executive Director of the Devils River Conservancy, and he wears a lot of other hats too—wildlife biologist, naturalist, writer, photographer, and a leader in just about every corner of the Texas conservation world. The Devils River is generally considered the most pristine stream in Texas, and maybe in the entire Southwest—remote, spring-fed, and held together entirely by private landowners. The county it runs through leads all 254 counties in Texas in privately conserved acres, and none of it was required by regulation. If you've ever wondered how conservation gets done in a place with almost no public land, Romey and his community have built a model worth paying attention to. Romey grew up in rural West Virginia as part of what he calls the last generation of feral children—turned loose outside with instructions to be home before dark, with the creek behind the house as his best friend. His family moved to Texas when he was in junior high, and like most teenagers, he traded all of that for sports and a social life. He was a first-generation college student headed toward sports medicine when he walked past a flyer at Texas State advertising a Wildlife Society meeting—free pizza and live animals. He went for the pizza, met a faculty advisor, and changed his major that week. I've known Romey for six or seven years, and we cover a lot of ground here—his early days filling deer feeders and checking bird nest boxes, why he says waiting tables taught him as much about this work as his degrees, and whether leadership can actually be taught. We get into the threats facing the Devils River—data centers, transmission lines, and energy projects that can undo decades of voluntary conservation—and his work with the mountain lion stakeholder group in Texas, which has some obvious parallels to the wolf situation here in Colorado. There's also a good stretch on his passion projects, including his owl research in the mountains of far West Texas, and why he decided to use social media to push out something positive instead of more conflict. We wrap up with a few book recommendations and his encouragement to all of us to just pay attention. I loved this conversation...

As Halloween season creeps closer, Terrifying & True begins the descent into darker stories with a special compilation of disappearances, ghost ships, lost colonies, missing people, wilderness mysteries, and unexplained cases that still haunt history.This is Vanished Without a Trace — a chilling collection of scary true stories about the places where people entered the dark and never came back.Inside this special Terrifying & True compilation:The Lost Colony of Roanoke — An entire English settlement vanishes from early America, leaving behind one haunting clue and centuries of theories. The Lost Franklin Expedition — A doomed Arctic voyage disappears into ice, starvation, fear, and one of exploration history's most disturbing mysteries. The Mary Celeste — A ship is found drifting across the Atlantic with its crew gone, its cargo intact, and no explanation that fully satisfies the imagination. The Disappearance of Angela Hammond — A late-night phone call turns into a terrifying missing-person case that still chills those who hear it. The Bennington Triangle — A quiet stretch of Vermont becomes linked to a series of strange disappearances, eerie folklore, and wilderness dread. Dyatlov Pass Mystery — Nine hikers die in the Ural Mountains under circumstances that have fueled decades of fear, investigation, and speculation. The Vanishing of Brandon Swanson — A young man disappears while speaking to his father on the phone, leaving behind one of modern true crime's most haunting unanswered questions. The Alaska Triangle — A massive wilderness region becomes infamous for vanished planes, missing travelers, strange legends, and stories that feel tailor-made for the Halloween season. Together, these stories form a journey through real mystery, dark history, eerie folklore, and the unsettling truth that sometimes the scariest thing is not finding a body, a killer, or a confession. Sometimes the scariest thing is finding nothing at all.

Then she meets Stella Swanson, the widow of one of the most notorious art dealers in the business. The Swansons move in a world where billionaires, oligarchs, and heads of state pay fortunes for masterpieces. Drawn in by their dazzling wealth and the pull of a dangerously charming grandson, Emma becomes both a player and a pawn in a family battle to protect their empire and conceal its crimes.In the late 1800s, the young widow Jo van Gogh inherits hundreds of paintings from her brother-in-law Vincent that the art world deems worthless. Determined to prove their genius, and to secure a future for herself and her young son, she becomes consumed by Vincent's legacy. As her devotion deepens, a vanished painting and a thwarted love affair leave her unsure who she can trust and how much of herself she's willing to lose in the process.From glittering auction houses to the idyllic canals of Amsterdam and the grand museums of Paris, the lives of these two women converge as Emma uncovers the Swanson family's darkest secrets and agrees to mastermind a daring heist inside the Musée d'Orsay. The stakes have never been higher, and these women refuse to be written out of history, no matter the cost.

Erica's dog Swanson needs to learn some manners!

Starting a microschool or other innovative learning environment is about far more than curriculum and community. Founders also have to navigate a maze of zoning rules, fire codes, occupancy limits, licensing questions, and other regulatory hurdles that can make or break their schools. In this guest-hosted episode of the LiberatED Podcast, Education Entrepreneurship Lab senior contributor and Baker Creek Academy founder, Denise Lever, talks with Lynn Swanson, Chief Counsel, Education at Stand Together, about the organization's Edupreneur Resource Center (ERC) and how it helps education entrepreneurs tackle legal and compliance challenges before they become major problems. Lynn explains the ERC's free resources—including microcourses, state-specific compliance guides, checklists, and personalized coaching—and shares practical advice for founders facing inspections, regulatory questions, or enforcement actions. She also discusses the most common compliance pitfalls, why facilities issues are often the biggest obstacle for new schools, and how entrepreneurs can stay informed as rules evolve. Whether you're launching a microschool, hybrid homeschool program, learning pod, or other education venture, this conversation offers actionable guidance to help you navigate the legal landscape with greater confidence. *** Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.

Episode 440: The Feud is back! Baseball Is Dead's Feud returns for another 2 vs. 2 battle, with a special guest joining the program to see if they can keep the guest's undefeated streak alive. Before the feud, the guys discuss the struggles of superstar Paul Skenes. Jay Hay and Dallas dive deep into the numbers on Skenes' pitches and break down the miraculous performance of Dansby Swanson. Swanson's rise from potential worst player in baseball to the best offensive player in recent weeks has baffled the guys and couldn't have come at a better time for the Chicago Cubs. The show wraps up with a fantastic interview with Guardians pitcher Joey Cantillo, who talks about his Hawaiian roots, the at-bats that have stuck with him, and the mindset of being part of a large prospect-haul trade. 00:00:00 - Shoutout Johnny  00:03:34 - What Is Going On With Paul Skenes? 00:17:23 - Dansby Swanson Resurgence  00:25:31 - Junior's Home Run Streak Continues  00:35:37 - Family Feud 01:03:04 - Award-Winning Nugs 01:05:57 - Joey Cantillo Joins BID!  01:30:50 - Final Thoughts NEW BID MERCH IS HERE: https://www.baseballisdead.com Trade $20 get $20 on Kalshi - https://app.kalshi.com/1r91/BID Sign Up For Our Patreon for more Baseball Is Dead Content! https://www.patreon.com/cw/BaseballisDead Upgrade your wallet today!

When thirty-four-year-old Shanann Watts missed a doctor's appointment on August 13, 2018, her friends reported her missing to the Frederick, Colorado Police. When officers searched the home, they found Shanann's car parked in the garage and her belongings—including her wallet, cell phone, and medication—were found in various spots around the house, but there was no sign of Shanann or the couple's two children anywhere. The next day, the FBI opened an investigation into the disappearance of Shanann, Bella and Celeste and Chris took to local television to give one of the most infamous and suspicious interviews of all time. He asked anyone with information about their whereabouts to come forward. The very next day however, Chris failed a polygraph exam and eventually confessed to murdering his wife, but he initially denied killing their children.
