SEPPHORIS AND THE HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF MARY'S LIFE Colleague James Tabor. Tabor identifies Sepphoris, a Roman capital near Nazareth, as Mary's birthplace. He reimagines Jesus and Joseph as "tektons" (builders) working in this urban center rather than simple carpenters. This proximity meant Mary witnessed Romanbrutality and the city's destruction, influencing her family's spiritual views on the Kingdom of God. NUMBER 1

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, a listener named Stevie shares a chilling firsthand encounter from Rock Creek, Maryland, where unexplained Bigfoot-like whooping sounds echoed through dense woods late at night—so close that his former Marine stepfather stepped outside with a gun and later installed security cameras around the home.The sounds erupted near Rock Creek Park, just minutes from Washington DC, an area surrounded by neighborhoods, highways, and urban development. Multiple witnesses heard the same vocalizations, including neighbors and reacting dogs throughout the area.Stevie also recounts an earlier unexplained experience from Colorado's Grand Mesa, where something silently removed food from a campsite cooler and carefully arranged cans on a picnic table—behavior that didn't match known wildlife.

A new trend is emerging across Chinese cities, where young people explore abandoned factories, unfinished buildings, and closed hospitals. They document these journeys online under labels like“urban ruins exploration,” championing a distinct“ruins aesthetics.”However, this popular pursuit is not without real danger. It raises urgent questions about safety, the pressures driving the trend, and what happens in spaces that exist beyond the reach of everyday oversight. / Is the "swag gap" killing relationships (14:41)?

Mental health is an important part of our overall health, but many people confront barriers that keep them from accessing the mental health care they need. A program in Boston aims to  address mental health disparities by disrupting traditional health care models. The Boston Emergency Services Team, or BEST, is led by Dr. David Henderson, chief of psychiatry at Boston Medical Center.  BEST brings together mental health providers, community resources, law enforcement, and the judicial system to deliver care to people in need of mental health services. Henderson says bringing mental health providers alongside police responding to calls for service for mental health needs has helped reduce the number of people with mental illness ending up in jails and prisons. “The criminal justice system has, by default, become one of the largest mental health systems … around the country as well,” Henderson says. “People with mental illness are in jails and prisons, at a percentage that they really should not be.” In a conversation that first published in 2024, Henderson speaks with Movement Is Life's Hadiya Green about what it takes to ensure people in need of mental health services get the help they need, why it's important to train providers to recognize unconscious biases, and what it means to provide trauma-informed and culturally sensitive care.

Welcome back to Architecture 5 10 20! I'm your host, Guy Geier, Managing Partner of FXCollaborative Architects in New York. My guests for this podcast are pioneers and visionaries shaping the future of the built environment across various disciplines. Join me in exploring their remarkable journeys, discovering how they reach their current heights, and envisioning what lies ahead in the next 5, 10, and 20 years. For this episode, I am joined by Architecture 2030's C.E.O., Vincent Martinez. We talk about two decades of work taking on carbon emissions in the built environment, with Vince sharing the story of how he got involved with Architecture 2030 nearly two decades ago, stepping into a movement which recognized buildings as a central driver of climate change. We explore how efforts have been made to help architects and designers understand the full scope of operational emissions and how simple, low-cost design strategies can make a huge difference. Vincent walks us through how the conversation around climate in architecture has evolved, and we talk about operational energy, passive and active systems, electrification, and renewable power as well as why the transition of the energy grid is just as important as what happens inside the building itself. He also shares insights into embodied carbon and explains how certain high-impact materials such as steel, concrete, aluminum contribute significantly to emissions, touching upon why demand-side strategies are becoming such essential tools for the industry. We also talk about some global trends, from Europe to developing regions, and discuss how the lessons learned in the U.S. can inform a worldwide effort. Vincent explains initiatives such as SHIFT that push us to rethink modern architecture and planning so that design is both culturally rooted and climate-responsive. We also talk about the growing idea of sufficiency - how designers can achieve outcomes with fewer resources and how operational and embodied carbon reduction can go in tandem with creating spaces that people actually want and need. Vincent and I, in addition, reflect on the past twenty years of progress – what has worked, where challenges remain, and how the future of climate-conscious design is expanding beyond individual buildings to whole cities, infrastructure, and planning systems! For anyone interested in the intersection of design, climate action, and the real-world power of architecture, this conversation with Vincent is definitely one that you will not want to miss! Time stamps: [01:36] - Hear how Vincent trained as a civil engineer and joined Architecture 2030 almost twenty years ago. [02:53] - Ed's research revealed that architecture causes 40% of carbon emissions, inspiring the 2030 Challenge. [06:19] - Architecture 2030 first explained full climate impacts, reframing design as a practical, demand-side solution. [07:59] - Hear how Vincent's focus evolved from operational energy to whole-life carbon. [10:34] - Vincent discusses how energy efficiency and electrification are cost-effective. [13:03] - Vincent explains how historical projections overestimated electricity needs, but renewable strategies replaced coal without new nuclear plants. [15:13] - Global building growth raises embodied carbon even as operational emissions decline with efficiency and renewables. [18:55] - High-impact materials create emissions right from the start which is why we need smarter sourcing and less material use [20:54] - Urban infill and renovation tend to reuse embodied carbon, reducing emissions without building more than we need. [23:11] - Hear how SHIFT reassesses modern architecture. [25:22] - Vincent links architecture to local culture, climate, and human-focused design. [26:53] - Vincent argues that sufficiency reduces resource use through thoughtful design, balancing equity, needs, and planetary limits. [29:50] - Vincent explains how early operational emission strategies prove how design can expand buildings while cutting energy and emissions. [32:46] - Climate solutions need to combine mitigation, adaptation, and human-centered outcomes. [35:50] - Design leadership is so important for achieving zero-carbon buildings and broader built environment progress.

Low resource settings require much innovation and streamlining resources to meet set goals. With healthcare becoming more commercial and profit driven, missional healthcare in low resource settings faces many challenges. Sustainability is a big question with people finance , and equipment scarce and hard to come by. Missional models of healthcare often run into hurdles of sustainability, longevity and relevance even as healthcare slowly turns into business. In this setting of multifactorial challenges and increasing compliances how can missional healthcare be relevant and sustainable? Many saints of God have committed their lives to fulfil this great commission in some of the most underserved and unreached areas of the world. With the birth of Emmanuel Hospital Association (EHA) a different model of missional healthcare emerged in India. Over the last 55 years of its existence, EHA has shown that through all the challenges, this may be one of the ways to sustain missional healthcare in areas of need. With increasing divide between the rich and poor, overwhelmed government systems, a ruthless insurance system, and high end corporate healthcare, it is still possible for missional healthcare to provide low cost, high quality, technologically advanced care to people in need while remaining sustainable. We bring lessons from India and our experience with Emmanuel Hospital Association over the last 3 decades.

A listener asked me a question recently about how to approach operating a coffee shop in a rural setting versus a larger city. After a short exchange over email I decided it was some thing that we should probably chat about here on the show. After all, specialty coffee shops are popping up more and more in suburban and rural settings, and there may be some key distinctions to consider. Today we will be talking about some different differences between the two settings and how you as a professional or an operator manager or owner can approach hospitality and business in each of these settings in a way that best serves the people in those communities. We will also talk about the limits of those differences and turn to how they are not too dissimilar, and give you a frame work that will help you ask the right questions before making decisions around menu, style, and approach.       KEYS TO THE SHOP ALSO OFFERS 1:1 CONSULTING AND COACHING!

The OECD Report for Regional Policy for Greece Post-2020 (https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/regional-policy-for-greece-post-2020_cedf09a5-en.html) revealed that 32% of the population lives in predominantly rural regions which is significantly higher than the OECD average share of rural population which is around 25%. Of those living in predominantly rural regions (~3.4 million people), roughly 3 million live in remote rural regions meaning Greece has one of the largest shares in this demographic among OECD countries. Recorded live from the OECD Rural Development Conference in Rio de Janeiro, Greek officials Vasiliki Pantelopoulou (Secretary-General of the Partnership Agreement) and Christos Kyrkoglou (General Director of Monitoring and Implementation) explain Greece's approach to rural urban development under the European Union's Cohesion Policy and the role of Integrated Territorial Investments (ITIs). They describe their respective roles in coordinating and implementing programmes financed through the Partnership Agreement, stressing the importance of integrating urban and rural policies. Sit back, relax and take a listen! Vasiliki Pantelopoulou is a lawyer and a Member of Athens Bar Association. She graduated from School of Law of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and holds two postgraduate degrees (LL.M. in Commercial and Business Law from East Anglia University, U.K., and MSc in Business Administration for Law Practitioners from Alba Graduate Business School, The American College of Greece, Greece). She is a Member of the Board of the Hellenic Development Bank. She has worked for twenty years as an in-house lawyer at STASY – Urban Rail Transport S.A., specialized in the field of public procurement (Law 4412/2016). Since April 2023, she has been the Director of Legal Services at Metavasi S.A. – Hellenic Company for Just Transition S.A. She is a Member of investing Committees such as EQUIFUND I & II, TEPIX III Loan Fund and others. Christos Kyrkoglou is the General Director of Monitoring and Implementation for the ESPA, which operate under the Secretary General.

Kändisarna Karl-Bertil Jonsson och Hajen fyller 50 år i jul och vi går till botten med deras betydelse. Och så tar vi tempen på Bildsköne Bengtsson! Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Urban Björstadius får rysningar när Karl-Bertil Jonsson varje år återvänder på julafton. Vi försöker förstå varför.Och så går vi på djupet med vithajens kulturhistoria med anledning av att det nu gått 50 år sedan filmen Hajen hade Sverigepremiär. Marinbiologen David Bernvi har forskat om vithajar hela sitt liv och berättar om varelsen som satt skräck i oss sedan antiken, om världens första hajnät i Kroatien och hur filmen Hajen påverkat en art på ett förödande sätt.Och så lär vi känna julkalenderns Bildsköne Bengtsson, som i verkligheten var en av en av 1900-talets svenska gentlemannaskurkar. Och Bildsköne förresten - vad kommer sig namnet av och vilka andra märkliga historiska tillnamn är Urban och Tobias favoriter?

My guest today has created some of the most beautiful houses in America. Perhaps I am biased, because if I ever build my own house, I know that Tom Kundig will design it. If he agrees Over the course of his four-decade career, he has built museums, wineries, universities, foundations, retail andcommercial buildings. But the touchstone of his work, and for what he became known, is the single-family house. His houses reflect his passion for the mountains, for the natural world, and for fine art. The private house to him, reflectthe sense of humanity in architecture.If to Le Corbusier the house was a machine to live in, toTom Kundig the house is a sculpture to live in and a place to experiment. His houses are also strongly connected to the landscape and to the surrounding nature in the most organic way, whether it is in an urban fabric or a house in the countryside. Urban or rural, his houses are a reflection of their place.Now that his new and comprehensive monograph—the definitive collection of his 462 residential works —has been published, it is time to explore what makes Tom Kundig's houses so magical, memorable, and beautiful.

Matt Faircloth interviews Lindsay Greene about how the Brooklyn Navy Yard evolved from a historic shipyard into a modern 300-acre industrial ecosystem that now houses 550+ businesses. Lindsay explains the Yard's transformation—from 1800s wooden-ship buildings to today's mix of TV/film soundstages, food manufacturers, tech incubators, and light industrial tenants—while highlighting its deep legacy as a hub of jobs, innovation, and opportunity. She walks Matt through how public-private partnerships power their redevelopment model, including layered capital stacks, long-term ground leases, and collaborative fit-out financing. Finally, she outlines the Yard's future plans for new multi-story industrial buildings, mid-scale manufacturing space, and opportunities for private developers or investors who want to partner on underutilized sites.
