They explored the business case for caregiver support, effective strategies including flexible work arrangements and specialized benefits, and how employers can help families navigate health care complexities while retaining talent and boosting productivity. Watch the original Wednesdays with Woodward® webinar: https://institute.travelers.com/webinar-series/symposia-series/support-working-caregivers.  --- Visit the Travelers Institute® website: http://travelersinstitute.org/. Join the Travelers Institute® email list: https://travl.rs/488XJZM. Subscribe to the Travelers Institute® Podcast newsletter on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7328774828839100417.  Connect with Travelers Institute® President Joan Woodward on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joan-kois-woodward/. 

In addition to advocacy at home, including through efforts like the twinning program, a number of activists working on behalf of Soviet Jewry traveled to the USSR, arranging meetings with Jews living behind the Iron Curtain in an effort to provide support and gain access to information to bring back to the United States. The journey was dangerous, and entailed a great deal of risk as the KGB enacted tighter and tighter restrictions on foreign visitors, and looked at each traveler with intense suspicion. Narrated by Rebecca Naomi Jones and featuring Dr. Shaul Kelner, author of A Cold War Exodus: How American Activists Mobilized to Free Soviet Jews. Image: In October of 1985, American travelers Cheryl Pollman and Mark Werbner meet with the Pevzner family in Odessa, from the National Conference on Soviet Jewry Records, I-181.

You don't have to earn your Intuition. You don't have to perform spirituality. And you definitely don't have to be “consistent” to be Loved or Guided.In this episode, we're dismantling the myth that spiritual growth requires discipline—and exploring the deeper truth that while Love doesn't require devotion, devotion magnifies Love.You'll hear me share how my own intuition practice evolved over time: from rigid daily routines and spiritual guilt to a fluid, Love-led rhythm that feels alive and sustainable. I'll tell personal stories—from when I was a pastor working with postpartum moms, to moments in my women's circle, to the way I now approach my own daily connection with Spirit.If you've ever:Felt guilty for “falling off” your practice or not being consistent enoughLonged to feel closer to your Intuition but didn't know where to beginConfused structure with intimacy or discipline with devotionNeeded permission to rest, pause, or reconnect in your own way—then this episode will feel like a deep exhale.You'll walk away understanding:The real difference between discipline and devotionHow to build a relationship with your Intuition that's based on Love, not obligationWhy consistency doesn't mean doing the same thing every dayHow to recognize when Love is already speaking to you through ordinary lifeHow to release guilt and respond to the invitation of devotion when it arisesWhether you're in a quiet winter of the soul or a season of blooming creativity, this conversation will remind you that Love hasn't gone anywhere.Love doesn't need your discipline—but it delights in your attention.Mentioned in this episode:“The Wind, One Brilliant Day” and “Traveler, There Is No Path” by Antonio MachadoIf this episode resonates:Visit my newly updated website to explore 1:1 coaching openings for the end of 2025.

November 9, 2025; 7am: The Federal Aviation Administration ordered flight cuts to ease the workload of air traffic controllers, many of whom have been calling out because they're not getting paid during the government shutdown. There have already been over 3,500 flights cancelled, and thousands more being delayed. Randy Babbitt, pilot and Former FAA Administrator, joins “The Weekend” to discuss. For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnbcTikTok: @theweekendmsnbcTo listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.

The government shutdown has been record-setting in terms of its length. So, too, has been the time that many employees of the National Park Service have been furloughed without pay. How has the shutdown affected the parks, and how have the friends groups that support the parks responded? We're going to discuss that today with Chris Lenhertz from the Golden Gate Conservancy, Jacki Harp from Smokies Life, Eric Stiles from Friends of Acadia, and Cassius Cash from the Yosemite Conservancy.

In this episode of Mystery Theater, we delve into the sinister world crafted by Wilkie Collins, exploring a chilling tale titled "Shadows from the Grave." The story is introduced by our host, Hyman Brown, who sets the stage for an intriguing exploration of mortality and the supernatural. We meet Xavier Yardley Zenith, a young photographer who inherits a mysterious estate from his Uncle George, who ominously proclaims that he will die within a week.Uncle George's peculiar insistence on guarding his mausoleum raises the stakes as Xavier learns about the family secrets buried within the estate. As Xavier navigates his new life, the narrative takes a dark turn, unraveling the complexities of his uncle's death, underscored by a mysterious ghostly presence demanding resolution. The episode unfolds through Xavier's nightmarish visions of his uncle's ghost, urging him to seek a blessing for his unblessed grave, raising questions of guilt, a possible murder, and supernatural repercussions of familial ties.The atmospheric richness of the storytelling becomes palpable as we witness Xavier's struggle against unseen forces that challenge his understanding of reality. Throughout the episode, the tension escalates with every check on the mausoleum's locks and as Xavier grapples with his wife Catherine's growing distrust of the ancestral legacy that seems to haunt them. The listener is drawn into the murky depths of human emotions, fear of the unknown, and the morality entwined with death.Unknown Broadcast slips in with old-time radio horror, classic OTR ghost stories, and radio suspense, my dear. Draw closer—just enough to hear the dirt breathe.

“There is no experience of death, only the fear of it.” Albert Camus

Some riders are planners, while others seem to thrive amid chaos. Israel Gillette fits into that second group. He grew up in Tennessee, working in his father's cabinet shop, and somehow that evolved into a life that has taken him between Romania, racing, carpentry, and motorcycle riding across continents. When we featured him on the show in 2023, he'd already experienced his share of close calls — time in jail, a bond set at thirty thousand dollars, and a border crossing in South America that ended with gunfire. Yet he still said it was the best thing he'd ever done with his life. Adventure, stubbornness, and perhaps a bit of trouble have shaped both his riding and his way of life.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From July 2025. Today's 2 topics: - When Asteroid hunters discover a new object it is given a score ranging from 0 which means it is likely to be a distant main belt asteroid up to 100 which means that it is likely to come near to us. Each newly discovered asteroid which receives a score of 65 or greater is posted on the Minor Planet Center's Near Earth Object Confirmation Page so that telescopes around the world can track it to estimate it's size as well as to refine our knowledge of it's orbit around the Sun.   - The energy required to lift water, food, and construction materials from the Earth's surface is very expensive. Asteroids come relatively close to Earth and could provide space colonists with metals, carbon, water, and the other important ingredients of modern life. Most space rocks like most terrestrial rocks may be pretty and interesting but they are not a practical source of the materials humans use and need.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Welcome , we bring you the most extraordinary stories of the cosmos. In this special episode, we follow the awe-inspiring journey of 3I/ATLAS, a visitor from beyond our solar system.Imagine a lone icy traveler, born in a distant star-system billions of years ago, cast adrift into the vast interstellar sea — and now, by a stroke of cosmic fortune, wandering into our neighborhood. That's 3I/ATLAS. Discovered on July 1, 2025 by the survey team at the Asteroid Terrestrial‑Impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) in Chile, it entered our view from outside the Sun's grip — an object that will never orbit back. NASA Science+1This comet rides a hyperbolic trajectory, moving too fast and following an eccentric path impossible to keep bound by our Sun. Space+1 It is the third interstellar object ever observed passing through our solar system, after 2I/Borisov and 1I/ʻOumuamua. NASA Science+1Why does it matter? Because 3I/ATLAS is a messenger — a relic of another world, another time. Its icy nucleus, venting dust and gas as it warms toward the Sun, carries clues about the chemistry of star-systems beyond our own. Northeastern News+1In this episode, we'll explore:How 3I/ATLAS was discovered — the telescopes, the archives, the thrill of the unknown.What makes it unique: its interstellar origin, its icy heart, its high speed, and what the jets of gas tell us. Live Science+1Why scientists are watching it closely: what it can teach us about how planetary systems form, how materials travel between the stars, and how our own home might compare.The poetic nature of a one-time visitor: How it came from far beyond, will pass safely by, and then vanish back into the cosmic sea — almost like a passing guest at a grand gathering.As our narrator traverses the cold cosmic void, they invite listeners to feel the wonder of being part of the universe's grand narrative: that we are here, on a small blue planet, for the moment when an interstellar traveler graces our skies.So settle in, look up, and let yourself feel small and vast all at once — for 3I/ATLAS reminds us that the universe is far larger, far older, and far more mysterious than our daily lives let on.

What started as a nine-day motorcycle trip through Bosnia, Croatia and Slovenia took a sudden and serious turn. Riding the TET, Philipp Amann and his friends were well into their journey when one of the riders fell ill but insisted on continuing. When he made the decision to turn back, his friends chose to ride with him, unaware of how quickly his condition was deteriorating. It's a story about good intentions, missed signs, and the importance of recognizing when it's time to stop.

Players have been discussing a range of interesting topics such as: * strategy for shopping at fiber festivals, which was partially inspired by Rhinebeck but certainly applies to any festival * suggestions for patterns to use up mini-skeins  * recommendations for cruises * board game recommendations * how to balance manicures with crafting time * ideas for handmade gifts for someone going into memory care * and what to do when you've simply lost interest in a project   As usual, if you can't keep up--just jump in!     I also wandered over to the endzone dance thread today.

Then the Traveler explained to them that this is what the scriptures said must happen. As they reached their destination, the three of them sat down for a meal.
