Host Jeremy C. Park talks with Melody Webber, Manager of Enrollment and Community Engagement at Freedom Preparatory Academy, who highlights the mission and efforts of the tuition-free charter school network in Memphis, Tennessee and Birmingham, Alabama, that prepares all students in grades Pre-K through 12 to excel in college and in life.During the interview, Melody shares how Freedom Preparatory Academy was founded by Roblin Webb in 2009, and how it has grown from a single 6th-grade class to now serving over 2,000 students across five schools in Memphis, Tennessee (2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school) and 1 elementary school in Birmingham, Alabama in the heart of the Titusville community. Freedom Preparatory Academy's Memphis schools are in the Westwood/Whitehaven area. Melody talks about the school's expansion into Birmingham in 2024, their focus on educating the whole student, and some of their unique characteristics, including flexibility with setting start and end times to help parents with children at each of their schools, professional development for staff each Wednesday, and a requirement for high school students to complete 100 hours of community service. Melody also highlights some of the school's academic achievements, partnerships with organizations like Wellchild and UT Health Science Center for student and family support, and its commitment to character development and leadership opportunities for students.Melody explains the enrollment process for Freedom Prep charter schools, where returning families complete enrollment first, followed by new applications processed within 24-48 hours. She outlines how seats are awarded on a first-come-first-serve basis and how families receive email notifications about acceptance or waitlist status with parent meetings being required before the first day. Melody, who previously taught 7th-8th grade math and later high school, shared her perspective on the school's strengths and her experience watching students progress from 7th to 11th grade, then graduation.Melody discusses the importance of building relationships with families and providing support through parent-led workshops and community engagement at their schools. They emphasized the need to treat students as individuals rather than numbers, offering opportunities for academic, psychological, and extracurricular growth. She highlights the ripple effect of Freedom Prep's impact on the community, preparing students to become future leaders in various fields.Melody wraps up discussing Freedom Prep's community engagement initiatives, including open houses, tours, registration help nights, workshops, literacy and math nights at their campuses. She explains that the school seeks partnerships to offer additional family-focused programs like first-time homebuyer and budgeting classes. Weber provides multiple ways for interested parties to learn more and get involved, including visiting their website freedomprep.org, following them on social media, or contacting her directly at (901) 538-9500 ext. 60276 or (901) 498-1849.Visit https://freedomprep.org to learn more about Freedom Preparatory Academy.

We never intended to buy a house in FL, but this month we ended up with a new home for the motorhome at our RV resort in Titusville, FL. We explain the decision and details in this month's episode as move ahead on buying this new abode in FL. The sale is not final until mid-May, so we headed North to Chicago just in time to leave on our next adventure, a cruise in Tahiti and Hawaii. The weather being what it is, the MH needed to be winterized while it sits in the cold in Chicago., We'll not be taking it to its new home until November (2025) due to our upcoming Alaska adventure which starts in July.

Welcome to the Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States podcast, where we share inspiring stories, practical tips, and the unpredictable nature of life on the water. In this episode, hosted by Bela Musits and co-hosted by Mike Wasserman, we dive into the adventurous journey of Mike Malekoff as he recounts his trip from Georgia to the Florida Keys. This podcast captures the essence of his experience, highlighting the importance of flexibility, planning, and embracing the unexpected.### The Journey Begins: From Vermont to the Florida KeysMike Malekoff's journey started long before he set sail for the Florida Keys. After sailing from Vermont to the Bahamas and eventually settling in Georgia, Mike planned a celebratory trip to the Keys following his recovery from prostate cancer. The trip was meticulously scheduled for early January, with reservations in the Keys for February and a planned return to Georgia afterward.### The Challenges of Scheduling and WeatherOne of the biggest takeaways from Mike's experience is the challenge of adhering to schedules while cruising on a sailboat. Despite careful planning, the unpredictable nature of weather and other unforeseen circumstances can significantly impact the journey. Mike's trip, which began on January 10th, was planned to be a 10-day voyage with a 10-day buffer. However, cold weather, snow in Georgia and Florida, and strong winds delayed their departure and reduced their buffer days.### Navigating the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW)To avoid rough seas, Mike and his crew traveled the ICW to St. Augustine, which took longer than expected. They encountered a supermoon that affected tides and caused shallow areas, leading to additional stops to avoid grounding. The journey continued to New Smyrna, where they faced a leaking head and had to manage with their second head.### Mechanical Issues and Weather DelaysMechanical issues further complicated the trip. In Titusville, a water connection snapped off, leaving them without a working bathroom. Finding parts for a 2005 boat proved difficult, and they spent days waiting for replacements, which eliminated their buffer time. Bad weather and northerly winds affecting offshore currents forced them to wait for calmer seas.### The Decision to ReturnRealizing that crossing to the Keys would be difficult and facing expensive marina reservations, Mike decided to cancel the trip and return to Georgia. The journey back was not without its challenges, including sea fog and rough seas, but they navigated safely using a chart plotter and compass.### Lessons Learned: Flexibility and AttitudeMike's trip, described as an adventure rather than a vacation, underscores the importance of flexibility and a positive attitude in sailing. Despite the hurdles, there were enjoyable moments, such as watching a rocket launch in Titusville and surfing alongside dolphins. The experience highlighted the need for backup plans, the challenges of securing marina reservations, and the unpredictability of buffer days.### Embracing the JourneyThe podcast emphasizes that the journey itself is the reward, and focusing solely on the destination can turn an adventure into an ordeal. Experienced sailors understand the challenges and setbacks, while new sailors should be prepared for the unexpected. The importance of planning with flexibility, carrying spare parts, and enjoying the journey cannot be overstated.Thank you for joining us on this episode of Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States. We hope you found Mike's story inspiring and informative. If you have any questions or would like to share your own sailing experiences, please email us at sailingtheeast@gmail.com. Don't forget to share the podcast and stay tuned for more exciting episodes as we prepare for spring boating.Happy sailing!Bela and Mike

I den stora berättelsen om människan intar väven en avgörande plats. Maria Küchen följer den ut i rymden, ner i jorden och in i skriften. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Ursprungligen publicerad 2021-04-06.Varje gång jag använder mina ärvda kökshanddukar föreställer jag mig min farmor och hennes tillvaro som småbrukare i ett svunnet Sverige. I början av förra seklet vävde hon handdukarna för hand. Det samtidigt lena och sträva linnet vibrerar av en tyst berättelse. De är en text som aldrig skrevs, de bär på en röst som inte hörs.Det latinska ordet textus betyder både ”text” och ”textil”. På grekiska har ordet hýfos samma tvetydighet. Det läser jag i Jesper Svenbros essäbok ”Myrstigar” från 1999, där han avsöker skrift och läsning i antikens Grekland.En hellenistisk dikt som Svenbro citerar presenterar sig själv som hýfos leptón. Det betyder både ”fin väv” och ”subtil text”. Bilden av texten som väv är med andra ord mycket gammal. Men hur är det med väven som text? Kan vävda tyger, precis som den skrivna litteraturen, påtagligt härbärgera berättelser?Jag möter väven som text i min farmors handdukar, och i poeten Burcu Sahins dikter, i hennes debutbok ”Broderier” från 2018. ”Vi ärver tunga tyger i turkos” står det, ”en symaskin / viknålar / blekta garnnystan / ryggen som sårbarhet, skydd”.Meterlånga gardiner och sidenöverkast, sjalar, lapptäcken, innehållet i linneskåpet – alla dessa textilier i Burcu Sahins poesi bär på berättelser om mödrar och döttrar, hårt arbete, flykt, migration, kärlek och sorg.I essän ”Tyst text” i tidskriften Ord och bild, fortsätter Sahin att konkret avsöka sin mors och mormors textilier som kunskapsbärare. ”Jag rörde vid tyget och trådarna. Jag betraktade stygnen” skriver hon. ”Jag förstod med tiden att även min mors och mormors handarbeten var en källa till kunskap; stygn och mönster som kunde dechiffreras. Jag började föreställa mig ett språk som gick att känna, fibrer och fingertoppar, bortom det talade och skrivna.”Textiliernas berättelse, vävens språk, är tyst text om kvinnors arbete. I andrahandsbutiker för välgörande ändamål finns ofta drivor av sådana textilier, sådan text, som säljs mycket billigt – förmödrars handarbeten ur skänkta dödsbon, kökslinne, sänglinne, grytlappar.Text, väv och minne är intimt länkade till varandra. Ibland blir detta extra påtagligt, som i den tidiga rymdfartens repminnen, rope memories.Core rope memory användes på 1960-talet i Nasas första Mars-sonder och i månfärdernas datorer. Mjukvaruprogrammet skrevs på den tekniska högskolan MIT och vävdes sedan, bokstavligen, av erfarna textilväverskor. Till minnesvävarna användes tunn koppartråd och magnetiska ringar.Det komplexa informationsflödet i datorer förmedlas binärt, med hjälp av enbart ettor och nollor. En koppartråd som träddes genom en ring i de tidiga rymdfärddatorernas minne representerade 1, en tråd som leddes förbi en ring representerade 0.Kvinnor vävde de tidiga rymdfärdernas minnen. Genom deras vävar av koppartråd och metallringar strömmade information – i blygsam mängd om man jämför med dagens datorer, men tillräckligt för att astronauter skulle kunna ta sig fyrtiotusen mil ut i rymden, ända till månen och tillbaka igen.Dessa minnesvävar av koppartråd och magneter tillhör redan det förflutna. De visas i museer och påminner om arkeologiska fynd. Tidiga textilier – tillverkade före det skrivna språket, före historien – kan se ut ungefär som ett rope memory i datorn på en tidig rymdfarkost.Arkeologiska textilfynd är inte lika vanliga som föremål av ben, lera och sten. Tyg multnar bort fortare, men kan bevaras mycket länge om omständigheterna är gynnsamma, som i torvdammen Windover pond i mellersta Floridas träskmarker.Dammen grävdes ut på 1980-talet i samband med ett bygge. Den ligger ett par hundra meter från motellet Space Shuttle Inn, i utkanten av staden Titusville nära Kennedy Space Center. Från Kennedy Space Center har NASA sedan 1960-talet sänt upp raketer med rymdfärjor, satelliter, sonder och månfarare. I Windover Pond återfanns kvarlevor av 167 ursprungliga invånare i det som långt senare skulle bli USA. Fynden var mer än sjutusen år gamla.De döda låg i fosterställning med huvudet västerut och ansiktet mot norr. De var svepta i tyg. Tretusenfemhundra år innan Egyptens pyramider byggdes, vävde dessa jägare och samlare på den amerikanska kontinenten textilier av palmblad – inte bara stora begravningssvepningar utan också mattor och väskor. Minst sju olika komplexa vävmetoder användes och det antyder att någon form av vävstol krävdes. Medan årtusendena gick, förvandlades deras textilarbeten i dammen sakta till torv.Tygerna i Windover vävdes långt före den skrivna historien, av människor som inte hade något skriftspråk. Textilierna är äldre än texten. Det är skriften som är en metafor för väven, snarare än tvärtom.Men relationen mellan text och textil är inte bara metaforisk. Den kan vara oerhört påtaglig, som i rymddatorernas repminnen och inkafolkets khipu-trådar. I sin essä berättar Sahin om khipu, ”ursprungligen ett slags skriftsystem som användes av inkabefolkningen före kolonieringen av Amerika.”En khipu”, skriver Burcu Sahin, ”bestod av färgade trådar, spunna eller flätade, av alpacka- eller lamahår. Trådarna hade numeriska värden och kodades i form av knutar i ett decimalsystem. Det sägs att när spanjorerna anlände till Amerika förstörde inkabefolkningen sina textilier för att förhindra att de hamnade i händerna på kolonisatörerna eftersom det var där de dokumenterade sin troslära och kunskap.”Den etymologiska relationen mellan textil och text finns i fler språk än grekiska och latin. Orden ”sutra” och "sutur", kirurgtråd, har samma rot i sanskrit. En sutra i den indiska klassiska litteraturen är en koncentrerad litterär form för undervisning i huvudsakligen muntliga traditioner, en skriven tråd att följa när stora mängder muntlig tradition memoreras.Den skrivna indiska sutran speglar något som egentligen primärt är muntligt. Och även i den arkaiska grekiska diktningen som Jesper Svenbro beskriver i ”Myrstigar”, är skriften egentligen sekundär. Dikten han citerar tycks av poeten själv ha uppfattats som en väv, ett spindelnät, som fångar rösten och dödar den. ”I denna metaforiska väv” skriver Svenbro, ”har rösten fastnat som en snara.”Inte bara Burcu Sahins förmödrars tyger är tysta texter, nät som har fångat och tystat en röst. Den skriva dikten i sig, är det också. Och även i de sjutusenåriga tygerna från Windover pond finns en tystnad, en tystad röst. Vilka var dessa människor? De talar inte längre, utom genom resterna av sina kroppar och textilier.Alla dessa trådar och tystnader, texter och fibrer, rymdfartens repminnen och ursprungsfolkens svepningar – de ingår i den stora texten om människan, en enorm mångskiftande väv i tid och rum. Också den här betraktelsen, den här rösten som har befriat sig själv ur den skrivna textens nät, ingår där som ett litet inslag, en av alla oräkneliga trådar.Maria Küchen, författare och kulturjournalist

Lots of RV activity for us this month. As with many of you, we had to hunker down early in the month due to extensive cold and snow in many parts of the country - including FL. Titusville was spared frozen precipitation, but it was cold. Our nearly annual trip to the Tampa RV Super show was a management disaster, but a display success. We explain this in full on the podcast. We managed to buy a few things at the vendor area, including a new Starlink Gen3 antenna (is it a dish, antenna or table?). I waited 3 days for it to be delivered from Starlink. Set-up was very easy and I had it working within minutes. We customized the installation as we explain in the episode. Beyond this we headed to Sebring FL for a refurbishment of 2 of our fogged windows. The end of the month brought us to Jetty park to watch others cruise from Port Canaveral. This campground has a great view of the ships entering and leaving on the weekly cruises to all parts of the caribbean.

Space Perspective, a Titusville, Florida company founded in 2018, was developed with the objective of selling trips to the stratosphere.And in a world of heavy investment in space exploration, it's the method that's unique: Space Perspective plans to use a craft called “Spaceship Neptune,” described as a crewed, pressurized gondola propelled by hydrogen.In the second half of 2024, the firm appeared to be on a positive trajectory. In September, the company completed its first uncrewed test. Funding from British billionaire and space enthusiast Richard Branson was revealed in October – as well as the fact that he would co-pilot the first crewed mission in 2025.

Resilience and Recon: The Inspiring Journey of Davey Lind In this week's Team Never Quit episode, Marcus and Melanie meet with Master Sergeant Davey Lind, a United States Marine, combat veteran, and motivational leadership speaker whose life story is a testament to resilience, courage, and the power of perseverance. Born and raised in Titusville, Pennsylvania, Davey embarked on his military journey immediately after high school, joining the Marine Corps in 1989. Over the years, he honed his skills and leadership as a Recon Marine, serving in pivotal roles from scout to team leader and participating in key operations, including Desert Storm, Operation Enduring Freedom, and the Iraq War. On June 14, 2007, Davey's life changed forever when a pressure plate IED in Iraq led to the loss of his legs below the knees. Incredibly, he took his first steps just two months after the injury and has continued to inspire others with his unyielding spirit and dedication to recovery and service. Today, Davey is a sought-after motivational speaker, sharing lessons learned from the battlefield and life, focusing on leadership, adaptability, and grit. He resides in Corona, California, with his wife Lisa and their four children, where he continues to make a difference in the private sector with his involvement with PXG Golf. It became a great outlet for him and something to look forward to. He is actively involved in helping veterans heal in the context of golf outings and they have made more friends and memories from various golf adventures. Join us as we dive into Davey's incredible journey, from the challenges of combat to overcoming life-altering injuries and emerging as a beacon of strength and inspiration.  In This Episode You Will Hear: • 35 in the Marine Corps, that's old. (14:04) • We were part of a surge in the summer of '07, and my vehicle struck and activated a pressure plate IED. This IED went off directly underneath me, and from that blast I became a double leg amputee. (15:02) • I rolled over on my back to try to use my left leg to push, and when I tried to do that, that's when I realized my left leg was gone. (24:50) • I'm married, I have kids, I have goals, and I was immediately aware of how challenging my life was gonna be. (25:17) • As a platoon sergeant, I was armed with both a rifle and pistol. That pistol was on my hip, and I had the conscious thought to end my life right there. I could do it before they could finish working on me. (25:33) • I had a very clear moment of calming, reflection of “everybody did their best.” I'm just gonna die here on the battlefield. (26:54) • My initial assessment was “You're gonna walk in about 10 months to a year. (33:32) • Being in a wheelchair, even as a gunny, is like the kids table at Thanksgiving. Nobody's talking to you; they're talking about you. (35:08) • There's a great relationship you have to have with your prosthetic doctor. The fit has to be tight, but not too tight. Then there's alignment. There's a lot that goes into it. (37:39) • Guys like me – a double leg amputee, I call guys that are single leg below the knee – we refer to that as a paper cut. (38:48) • Perspective is everything. (39:35) • I was able to retire though, which is important because I did a full 20 years, 6 months, and 3 days of active duty time. (46:15) • In 2018 I got one of the greatest phone calls I've ever received. Kevin Hudson from PXG called me and said, “We got a program going on - PXG Heroes. If I help you with this program, do you think you could golf a little bit more, and talk about the program, and introduce people to PXG. Would you be willing to do that? (48:19) • Golf is the only thing you can do competitively for the rest of your life. (62:45) • [Marcus] In the beginning you wonder why you got hit. You got hit so you can show people what it's like and stay up.

Finally back on the road in the RV, we travel to FL on a round about itinerary that included stops in Michigan, Ohio, South Carolina and Georgia before our final stop in Titusville, FL. September is a great weather month in these northerly states so we took advantage of fall (before the colors) to slowly drive south. A major stop along the way was in Gaffney. Not a tourist stop but an important MH stop for this is the home of Freightliner - the maker of our chassis. We found the important of letting the pros work on the MH as they performed our annual check-up and found several major problems - and solved them before they became issues. Expensive, yes, but worth it if it keeps from being stranded on the side of the road. We are getting ready for our Alaska adventure next summer so reliability of our Rig is very much on our mind. With a 12 year old MH, we never know what will go wrong, so we try to do as much preventative maintenance as possible. Florida proved to be its usual hot an humid with a hurricane thrown in for good measure. Our area was not impacted by the storm so we are feeling lucky this year. This months episode features a new cooking segment done by the copilot. She shares some ideas for maximizing the kitchen space in an RV.

After that comes super space memorabilia collector Bryan Edwards from Minnesota. Bryan discusses his unique path into space collecting. Learn about his father rubbing elbows with NASA personnel in Houston and how growing up in Houston fueled his passion for collecting space memorabilia. They then discuss everything from autographs to flown heat-shield lucites. Downsizing a bit, Bryan is moving to North Carolina shortly and -- teaser! -- there won't be a garage sale.  You will, however, hear some fun stories from the hey-day of the autograph shows, including a unique interaction with the Last Man to Walk on the Moon, Gene Cernan.

This week's "Staycation Destinations" feature took you on a radio tour of Edwin Drake's Well #1. It essentially became the birthplace of the modern petroleum industry. The Drake Well Museum and Park, with its indoor and outdoor exhibits, tells of this history. In this additional interview segment, Emily Weaver of the Friends of Drake Well Incorporated makes about 20 miles further south of Titusville, to another historic site in the Oil Creek Region.   In the 1860s, Pithole City sprung up and grew to a population of 15,000 as people flooded in there, in an oil-focused version of a gold rush. Weaver tells us more of that story, and describes what people can see at the Pithole visitors center (open seasonally on weekend).   Pithole City is operated as a tourist site in conjunction with the Drake Well Museum. If you haven't yet heard the primary episode of this week's Staycation, find that feature here among our news podcasts on FamilyLife.org.     "Staycation Destinations" on Family Life maps out unique opportunities for you to discover somewhere unique in New York or Pennsylvania, fairly close to home and fairly affordable. These Staycation features aire during the Noon Report and 5 O'Clock Report each Friday during the summer. You can hear the broadcast on the air and streaming online. You can also find our features on the Family Life Now mobile app, on FamilyLife.org, and search for "Family Life News" on most popular podcast compilations.  

It's "Staycation Destinations" on Family Life The last week of August marks the anniversary of a milestone that transformed northwest Pennsylvania -- and transformed the world. It was 1859, when "Colonel" Edwin Drake struck oil at his new well south of Titusville. As he and his team developed the infrastructure to drill, store and transport oil, the petroleum industry mushroomed. So did "oil boom" towns throughout the region. The Drake Well Museum & Park is at the site of that first well. It tells the story of this discovery which directly led to huge changes in the local economy, the world of transportation and so much more. Executive Director Emily Weaver tells us about this history and about what modern-day visitors to the site can see at the Drake Well. Visitor information about the museum and grounds are available at www.DrakeWell.org. There you can find for about the exhibits, history and upcoming events.       We also have separate podcast-only bonus content, as Emily Weaver gives us a radio tour of a town which went from almost nothing to a population of 15,000 --- back to almost nothing. The Friends of Drake Well historical organization has a twin attraction about 20 miles further south:  Pithole City. This extended interview has that story, and information about what visitors can see there too. The biggest annual event there happens in mid-Autumn, the Pithole Lantern Tour.

When the wind is just right, on a small beach in Titusville, Florida, horseshoe crabs crawl out of the water and onto the beach to lay their eggs. Jim and Colin joined up with two marine biologists—Bob Sluka who works with A Rocha, a Christian conservation organization and Margaret Miller, a coral biologist who works with SECORE International—and three A Rocha interns to survey the horseshoe crabs. That experience began an exploration into paying attention to many of the creatures that surround us, extending hospitality, and learning from the creatures, even from the ocean itself, about how we might better worship the creator of it all.  This episode was originally aired on April 27, 2023 Additional Resources: Learn about A Rocha Do your own nurdle hunt Atlantic Article about Synthetic alternatives to LAL Radiolab Episode about Horseshoe Crabs Join a conversation about this episode on the BioLogos Forum.

We're giving up on new ways to describe how busy it is now in the world of space-related news. Nonetheless, we still have a Starship Flight 3 recap, a look at the next (and last) Delta IV Heavy launch, and we also focus on the upcoming total solar eclipse. But first, in the News Roundup, even more, including: Crew 7 returns from the ISS; RocketLab's Electron booster launches the “Owl Night Long” mission for Japan-based Synspective; Japan-based Space One launch vehicle explodes during first launch; SpaceX's controversial land-swap deal in Texas; The White House releases NASA 2025 budget on the heels of the final fiscal year 2024 spending bill for NASA, NOAA and FAA; NASA network of small moon rovers gets ready for work on IM-2 mission; The Post-Delta-IV-Heavy Future of Launch Complex 37 Next, the team discusses some possible alternatives for the future of Space Launch Complex 37 on Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida. The USAF conducted a public hearing (both in-person and online, which Gene attended) to discuss the two options. One is for SpaceX to take over LC-37 and convert it for use by the Starship Super Heavy. The other is to establish a new LC-50, to be located between SpaceX's LC-40 and ULA's LC-41.  Charles Boyer from “Talk of Titusville” outlines the entire plan here.  How to Safely Enjoy the Upcoming Solar Eclipse Gene shares his previous solar eclipse viewing experiences and provides a few handy safety tips as well.   According to the site TimeandDate , the first sign of a partial eclipse in North America is to start at 15:42 UTC (that's 11:42 AM EDT) on April 8, 2024, and will end about 20:52 UTC or 4:52 PM EDT.  NASA has a good site as well if you are looking for when to look in your area, NASA's Eclipse Explorer can give you information about your town to see if you are in the path of totality. So can a moving map animation at greatamericaneclipse.com. And if you get rained out or clouded over? Never fear, NASA TV will be providing coverage. Starship Flight 3 Recap Finally, the team recaps their impressions of the third test flight of Starship Super Heavy. While both booster and ship were prematurely lost (which, by regulation, requires that SpaceX conduct another Mishap Investigation), there were a number of notable achievements to highlight on this test flight. There were a number of lowlights as well. We discuss it all.   Please be sure to let us know your thoughts on the topics we discuss. You can always reach us at mailbag@TalkingSpaceOnline.com.

It's the spring of 1858. Colonel Edwin Drake from New York is hired by the Seneca Oil Company to investigate suspected oil deposits in Titusville, Pennsylvania. While the existence of petroleum oil was known, there no considerable market for the material. After months of work, Drake had little to show for his efforts. Undeterred, Drake took out a $500 loan to continue his operation. Then, on August 27th 1859, Drake changed the world. While drilling on an island in Oil Creek at a depth of 69.5 feet, he had struck oil.The words - “They've struck oil!” – roared through the valley as crowds gathered to see the crude oil being hand pumped to the surface and into a bathtub. The Drake Well was the first commercial oil well in the United States. It led to the world's first oil boomThis monumental discovery would play a pivotal role in the birth of the American oil industry. The rural wooded area surrounding Oil Creek would go on to be used for searching for black gold that would fuel the industrial revolution.160-plus years after the discovery of oil, the property is now known as Oil Creek State Park. The park is a living museum, preserving the remnants of historic oil derricks, drill sites, and the remains of the industry that forever altered the course of American history. On this episode I speak with David Hallman.

In Episode 3 of #TheHersDay Thursday Podcast, we delve into a topic that affects countless women worldwide: menopause. Hosted by The 2Harks, this episode features an insightful conversation with Dr. Donna G. Ivery, a renowned expert in women's health. Menopause, often dubbed as the "silent transition," can bring about a myriad of physical, emotional, and psychological changes. Dr. Ivery sheds light on this natural phase of life, discussing common symptoms, misconceptions, and effective strategies for navigating through it. From hot flashes to mood swings, listeners gain valuable insights into understanding and managing menopause gracefully. Tune in as we embark on this enlightening journey through menopause, empowering women to embrace this significant life transition with confidence and resilience. Stay tuned for Part II, where we'll delve even deeper into this crucial topic. Dr. Donna G Ivery, MD has done all things women's health, delivering babies, rocking surgeries, and championing the cause for almost 30 years. Beginning with training in Atlanta, to the tropical islands of Maui, Hawaii, and St. Croix, to the lively streets of Portland, small towns in Georgia, and her homebase of Titusville, Florida, Dr Donna G MD has been a guiding light for over 50,000 women throughout her illustrious career. Dr Donna G MD started professional life as a biomedical engineering graduate of Johns Hopkins University and an employee of AT&T Bell Labs. She pivoted to medicine with medical school and residency training in Obstetrics & Gynecology at Emory in Atlanta, GA, marking the beginning of a remarkable career. Board-certified in Obstetrics & Gynecology since 1998 and certified in Integrative Holistic Medicine since 2014, she has seamlessly blended conventional and holistic approaches to provide comprehensive care to her patients. Beyond the accolades of a thriving clinical practice, Dr. Donna G MD shares a deeply personal narrative. She has been through the wringer at times in her life, too – exhausted, sick, overweight and feeling completely overwhelmed. Sound familiar? Yeah, Dr Donna G MD knows what it's like to hit the wall, be forced to change course, and figure out how to move forward. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis over 25 years ago and it reared its ugly head in 2019!! While struggling to recover, the COVID pandemic hit and life became a blur and a blessing. You see, Dr Donna G MD knows life without maternity leave and went back to work 3 ½ weeks after her c-section. COVID's silver lining gave her the bonding with her son that she missed postpartum! Great physicians and nurses along with great modern medicines all contributed to getting a grateful Dr Donna G MD back on her feet and functioning. So here's the scoop: Dr Donna G MD's mission in 2024 is to reach a million amazing women with the Message About Menopause. This book is a big part of reaching that goal! Why do something like this? Because so many women are completely unprepared for menopause. They don't know what to expect. They are afraid of what is happening to their body and their mind. They are confused about all of the information and mixed messages they see on the internet. Dr Donna G MD spent decades helping women, one by one, through their gynecologic issues, especially menopause. Some got information, some got hormones, some got herbal regimens, some got practical and nutritional advice and tips; they all got seen and heard and helped in a manner that resonated with their experience and needs. With five decades of life experience, she intimately understands the challenges women face – the struggle to be heard, believed, and helped. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theher-hdubbl/support

In June 2021, firearms maker Dark Storm Industries announced plans to relocate manufacturing from New York to Titusville, Florida. The company intended to build a new 25,000-square-foot headquarters and manufacturing plant in the Sunshine State, foreseeing a capital investment of approximately $3.2 million and 87 new jobs.However, Florida Today has reported that the company, which caters specifically to the AR platform modern sporting rifles, elected not to build a new facility and, as a result, will lose over $1 million in financial incentives.The report cited a 300% increase in the facility's construction costs and a “dramatic” rise in financing costs since the project's initiation, according to Dark Storm managing partner Edward Newman. In a letter to a local government economic program, Newman explained that these factors rendered the project “no longer economically viable.”Dark Storm planned to build the new plant on 9.8 acres that the company bought for $362,600 in 2021 at Spaceport Commerce Park. Dark Storm expected the facility to house manufacturing, warehousing and shipping operations and create 50 direct jobs with an average salary of $50,000. However, following higher construction costs, permit delays and increased interest rates on commercial loans, Dark Storm decided not to construct the new facility. Instead, the company opted to lease manufacturing space on nearby Merritt Island. The company will use the space until it finds a “suitable existing facility.”The county commission voted to repurchase the undeveloped area from Dark Storm for the original price and will now offer the land to other tenants. While Dark Storm got the money back spent on the land, it will still have to forfeit $1.08 million in economic incentives. The company will also lose a 10-year deal for a 100% break on county property taxes and a seven-year deal for a 70% break on city property taxes.Download and listen to the audio version below and click here to subscribe to the Today in Manufacturing podcast.

We don't normally think of Philadelphia as being an oil town, but the Point Breeze refinery in South Philadelphia, easily visible from the Pratt Bridge on your ride to the airport, dominated the skyline for many decades with its storage tanks and distilling towers.    Born in the middle of Pennsylvania's Titusville oil boom in the northwest corner of the state, J. Newton Pew established Sun Oil in 1890.    After its move to Philadelphia, Newton's sons Howard and Joe Jr. ran the company for decades and established a refinery at Marcus Hook and the Sun Shipbuilding Company in Chester.    The Pews are known today for their charitable contributions throughout the city.  The Pew Mausoleum at Laurel Hill West holds several generations of this prosperous philanthropic family.    Learn about oil, crude and refined, shipbuilding, philanthropy, and even some political intrigue in this month's episode of “All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories – Philadelphia and Oil” from wherever you listen to podcasts. 

Vinnie Nguyen and his wife, Phi Phi Lam, started their food truck, Pho Wheels, so that they could have more time to spend with their children. “The hours and restaurants are just really long,” Nguyen said. “You go in — opening, you've done everything — by the time you go home, it's almost midnight as well. I miss a lot of time with my children. I was a stay-at-home dad at the beginning when they were born for like five and a half years and when going back to the workforce, it just felt like I was missing a part of myself.” Nguyen has spent much of his life around restaurants. His family has been in the restaurant business and he has worked in a number of kitchens around Orlando, such as Umi Japanese Fusion in Winter Park and Hana Sushi in Altamonte Springs. “I just love how food makes people feel and any kind of a field that you're in it's really hard to try to please a lot of people,” he said. “But if you get the correct ingredients, the correct food, it makes people happy and that's our kind of occupation.” However, after spending time as a stay-at-home dad, Nguyen decided it was best to be his own boss. “If we don't make enough money, we'll just spend less money. So that's that's our scenario,” Nguyen said. “We're not as successful as some restaurants are but we do get to spend the most amount of time with our kids. We try to work during the time when they're at school so that when they come home, they don't even know that we left for work.” Even though Pho Wheels gives the couple the freedom to spend plenty of time with their children, it does still keep them busy. “We've been all the way to Winter Garden. We've been to Tampa, we serve a lot over in Titusville, in the Space Coast area, but most of the time we are headquartered in Winter Park and we serve a lot of the outer Orlando area — downtown a lot,” Nguyen said. Getting ready for each event also has the couple working long hours. “The prep time is a lot. We do wake up early, and we do stay up late, but those are the schedules that we picked so that we can have the time with our child. It is a lot different from a brick-and-mortar where you have enough water, enough electricity — so it does take a lot of adjustment,” Nguyen said. The couple serves a variety of Asian street food including Vietnamese dishes like pho, Korean fried chicken and even some sushi. So we just love that we're able to accommodate a lot of the Asian culture and a lot of different food for all our events,” Nguyen said. On the latest episode of Florida Foodie, Nguyen and his wife talk about what it is like to work together in their food truck. They also show off some of their favorite dishes.

16 de octubre de 1973: en ese día se tomó una decisión que cambió para siempre el cursode la historia. Los países productores de petróleo, en su mayoría árabes y agrupados bajo la OPEP, decidieron no exportar más petróleo a los países que habían apoyado a Israel en la guerra de Yom Kipur o Guerra de Octubre. Lo anterior se resume en una frase «la era del petróleo barato se acabó». Para entender la trascendencia de esa decisión les explicamos cómo nos convertimos a lo largo del siglo XX en sociedades dependientes del petróleo, el porqué la explotación de este recurso mantuvo extensas lógicas imperialistas, los mapas que el petróleo dibujó en las fronteras políticas además de los vínculos que tiene el 16 de octubre del 73 con la industria automotriz de hoy, las fortunas de los jeques árabes y la incómoda pero aún muy vigente dependencia petrolera. Así es como relatamos los 50 años de la llamada Crisis Energética o Crisis del Petróleo Notas del episodio: Empezamos con una pregunta ¿De dónde viene el petróleo? (y la respuesta no tiene que ver con dinosaurios) Los principales países productores de petróleo Titusville y la «Fiebre del petróleo» de Pensilvania La historia detrás del venezolano «padre de la OPEP» Un resumen de la guerra de Yom Kippur o Guerra de Octubre Causas, hechos y consecuencias de la Crisis del Petróleo de 1973 ¡Síguenos en nuestras Redes Sociales!

Whale Oil: The Original Energy Transition with Eric Jay Dolin In 1859, illumination throughout the major metropolises of the West was powered by whale oil. Whale oil was at the center of international trade (and trade disputes). Prices were at an all time high and great fortunes had been made. Yet, in that same year, Edwin Drake started the oil rush in Titusville, Pennsylvania…and every thing changed. Quickly. What lessons are there in this first energy transition in the modern era? In this episode we dig into the history of whaling and whale oil. Our guest is historian Eric Jay Dolan, author of Leviathan: A history of whaling in America. Eric takes us through the history of whale oil. A history of the first commodity cartels (they failed too), extraordinary entrepreneurs, boom and bust, environmental exploitation and Benjamin Franklin's taste for Spermaceti Candles.

When the wind is just right, on a small beach in Titusville, Florida, horseshoe crabs crawl out of the water and onto the beach to lay their eggs. Jim and Colin joined up with two marine biologists—Bob Sluka who works with A Rocha, a Christian conservation organization and Margaret Miller, a coral biologist who works with SECORE International—and three A Rocha interns to survey the horseshoe crabs. That experience began an exploration into paying attention to many of the creatures that surround us, extending hospitality, and learning from the creatures, even from the ocean itself, about how we might better worship the creator of it all.  Additional Resources: Learn about A Rocha Do your own nurdle hunt Atlantic Article about Synthetic alternatives to LAL Radiolab Episode about Horseshoe Crabs Join a conversation about this episode on the BioLogos Forum.
