Energy markets take center stage as crude oil, heating oil and RBOB grapple with major supply disruptions, refining constraints and an increasingly complicated geopolitical backdrop. On this episode of The Futures Rundown, Mark Longo welcomes back Brian Pieri, founder of Energy Rogue, for a deep dive into the wild action across the energy complex. Brian breaks down the disconnect between the physical and financial crude oil markets and explains why today's oil market feels like a volatile game of volleyball — with traders trying to keep crude in the air while waiting to see who eventually spikes it. They also explore the surge in heating oil and diesel, refining bottlenecks, RBOB, natural gas seasonality, LNG exports and the growing impact of AI-driven electricity demand. Plus, Mark and Brian run through the biggest weekly and year-to-date movers across futures, including energy, metals, agriculture and crypto. Then it's time for the Futures Free-for-All, with listener questions on USO vs. XLE, the challenges of futures-based energy ETFs, memories of crude oil's historic plunge below zero in 2020, and the outlook for nuclear power and uranium.
Floyd Moreland grew up in Illinois in a family with a very distinguished service record. He joined the U.S. Marine Corps when he was 21-years-old because he "wanted to fight with the best." Moreland hated Marine Corps boot camp but enjoyed advanced infantry training. He later pursued USMC Sea School and deployed from the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown during his first deployment in Vietnam.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Moreland walks us through an early assignment at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, just a few years after the Cuban Missile Crisis. He then takes on those Marine Detachment missions from the Yorktown and tells us what patrols in the jungles of Vietnam were like. And he shares his favorite part of that deployment - serving as part of the honor guard for actress and singer Ann-Margret when she came as part of a USO show.Then, Moreland describes his second tour, in which he saw a lot of combat near the DMZ - places like Con Thien, Cam Lo, "The Rockpile," and Dong Ha. He also details what it was like being surrounded by the enemy at Con Thien for 30 days.Finally, Moreland explains why he turned down a third tour of duty, the pain of being demonized in his own country, and why he would serve all over again.

September 11, 2001, changed Bob Ellis's life, just as it changed mine. Bob was working at the Pentagon that morning and had walked out of the building only minutes before Flight 77 struck the area where his meeting had taken place. You will hear how he immediately became part of the response, helping organize emergency supplies and support for those working at the Pentagon. We also compare our experiences from two different locations that day, Bob at the Pentagon and me at the World Trade Center with my guide dog Roselle. Twenty-five years later, our conversation is about more than remembering 9/11. It is about leadership, teamwork, service, controlling fear, and deciding what we do with the life we have been given. I believe Bob's story offers lessons we can all use when the unexpected happens. Highlights: 05:29-Bob shares how his early life and military support career shaped his path. 23:53-He recalls realizing the first World Trade Center strike was not an accident. 32:59-Bob describes being just 300 yards away when the Pentagon was hit. 37:00-He explains how he helped organize emergency relief supplies within hours. 1:03:54-Michael reflects on survival, fear, and the responsibility to move forward. 1:06:55-Bob shares the lasting life lessons he took from September 11.

Transcription Notes: Michael Hingson 00:00 Everyone, I am Michael Hingson, the host of Unstoppable Mindset. You've heard my voice for the last 471 episodes, but I'm calling you all out today and asking you to listen to this because we're going to make a special announcement now regarding the next four episodes, starting with 472. We're going to help commemorate the historic events of September 11, 2001. Yes, they're definitely historic, although not necessarily the most positive things that have ever happened. But as many of you may know, I was in the World Trade Center working on September 11, 2001, on the 78th floor of Tower One, and escaped with my guide dog. I've delivered a speech about that, which we put in the first episode of this podcast series back in August of 2021. But this Friday, episode 472 is going to have an updated speech that I delivered just a few years ago at the Marshfield, Missouri Cherry Blossom Festival. That festival is a yearly event celebrating different kinds of things that have happened in American history, and I was invited to come and speak, which I did. I'm going to put that speech up for you as episode 472. I think you'll find it enlightening. It'll teach you something about blindness and blind people. It'll tell you my story, and it'll give you some inspiration that I hope you will find helpful. Next Tuesday, september 8, Michelle Abraham is going to interview me. Michelle is with Amplify You, the company that does all of our back office stuff and helps me with the editing and other things regarding the podcast. Michelle owns her own podcast, and she is going to interview me about September 11th and other kinds of things relating to what I've learned and things that have happened over the past 25 years. She's also going to be putting this up on her podcast Amplify You, so you can find us in a lot of different places. On September 11th, I'm going to chat with Bob Ellis. Bob was in the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, and had literally just walked out the door of the Pentagon when the plane crashed into the Pentagon and did the things and the damage that it did, and of course generated all the things that occurred at the Pentagon. On the 15th of September, I'm going to come back and have a conversation with all of you about lessons that I've learned over the past 25 years, and just reminisce a little bit about all of that. While the podcast is occurring on September 11th, I will be actually in Kilgore, Texas, doing a speech about September 11th. So lots of things going on, I hope you listen to these episodes. I hope that you'll tell everyone that you can about them. I really enjoy all of the support that you've given us over the years, and we're going to continue to do things with Unstoppable Mindset. And of course, as always, if you'd like to come on or know anyone who would, please let us know. We're always looking for guests. Thanks very much. We'll see you on Friday with the first of these four episodes. What if the biggest thing holding you back isn't what's in front of you, but rather what you believe? Welcome to Unstoppable Mindset, where inclusion, diversity, and the unexpected meet. I'm your host, Michael Hingston, speaker, author, and advocate for inclusion and possibilities. This podcast explores how the beliefs we carry shape the way we live, lead, and connect with others. Each week, I talk with people who challenge assumptions, face adversity head-on, and show what's possible when we choose curiosity over fear. Together, we focus on mindset, resilience, and the small shifts that lead to meaningful change. Let's get started. Hi everyone, and welcome to another episode of Unstoppable Mindset. You are listening to us today, or at least I'm assuming you're listening just when this came out. But whenever you're listening, it is today, September 11th, 2026, which is needless to say, a special day. If you have kept up with my podcast from the beginning, you know that I worked in the World Trade Center on September 11th, and ever since then I've been a public speaker, traveling the world, talking about trust, teamwork, leadership, the human-animal bond, and a variety of things. But recently, I met Bob Ellis. Michael Hingson 04:40 Now, Bob, as it turns out, on September 11th worked at the Pentagon, and I have not ever really had the opportunity to talk with someone who was at the Pentagon, especially on September 11th. But we get to chat about that today, and Bob knows our rules, which are basically. He sent me a series of questions that he wants to cover, but we are doing this as a conversation, so we'll probably talk about a lot of the things that he specifically sent. But we can go any old way that Bob wants to go, so that's what we'll we'll make this really fun. And I'm really looking forward to having the opportunity to talk with Bob. So again, welcome to September 11th, and Bob, I want to welcome you to Unstoppable Mindset. We're really glad you're here, Bob Ellis 05:28 Michael. Thank you for inviting me. I know you you've inquired several times, and I've debated it, and and I was just holding it for the right time, and this is the right time-the 25th anniversary of the event. Michael Hingson 05:40 Yeah, it is, and and and as as we've said, if you find anybody who needs a a speaker to come in and speak, let me know. But but for now, we get to chat about you and and hear your story, which I think is the important thing. I think we'll probably talk about both of our stories in the course of the day, no doubt about it. But I really am glad that you are here and that you are able to to talk with us today and and and talk about things. So let's start the way I love to start with people. Let's start at the beginning. Tell me kind of about the early Bob growing up and so on. Let's start with that. Bob Ellis 06:17 Well, I I grew up in let's say grew up until I was four years old. I lived. I was born in Pensacola, Florida. Lived in the Panhandle. Mother and father got divorced, and we moved to Norfolk, Virginia. And it was just my my mother and I until I was 14 years old. And I found out about my dad and found some letters from him and insisted to go see him. And so, between 14 and 15, I made a couple of unauthorized attempts to to make my way to Florida. On the third attempt, I made it, and it was quite a surprise for my father. Ended up living with him and being my closest friend up until I had he had grandkids, we had kids, and so I lived and grew up in the Destin, Fort Worth, Fort Walton area. Went to work, and this is where the story begins. I went to work at Eglin Air Force Base as a as a janitor in a gas station for the Army Air Force Exchange Service, so that I could continue to play high school football and practice, was a great job. It was an opportunity to work with the military, be around the military, and I took great pride in that feeling that that that that while I I wanted to go into the air force and I wanted to fly jets, that opportunity just never presented itself because the Vietnam War was going on and they were banking pilots instead of taking pilots. Anyway, I I ended up staying with the Army Air Force Exchange Service for 34 years. I moved all over the world. I've seen the every AOR and every combat scenario since the Vietnam War. Not in the Vietnam War, but I was in the refugee program, helping with the resettlement back in 1972, 1973. Spent the rest of my career going wherever they sent me, and and and that was from Tokyo, Japan, to to Tuli, Greenland, to California, and ultimately to to Texas. Michael Hingson 08:30 I remember during the Vietnam War, someone called me one day. I was a student at UC Irvine, and there was a refugee camp fairly close to the university, and someone said, and someone said, "There's a blind young man at the sent at the refugee center, and we should go see him. And so we we bought a transistor radio for him and went out to visit with him and spent some time with him, and I never got to see him after that. But I hope I hope he did well. He he seemed like he was doing okay, but he was a little bit lost, needless to say, because it's a whole bunch of people. There are no a lot of people who knew much about blindness and blind people, but I would presume he did reasonably okay. I hope so, but that was the only time I specifically had an involvement with him or anyone at the refugee camps. Later, when I met my wife Karen, she lived, I think, a door down, and she and her parents lived a door down from a Vietnamese couple, and he was a tailor and actually made her wedding dress, which was kind of cool, and so we got to spend a fair amount of time with the Voo's, which was was good, but what's. Interesting for me now, with with now being well so many years later. In November, I will be going to do a speech in Hanoi, so I'm really looking forward to to going over there and and experiencing it. At least it'll be a little bit cooler then than it probably is now. So we'll see, but it'll be it'll be pretty enjoyable to go and again see a different a different part of the world, and I I think we'll be fine. At least that's that's that's the plan. Bob Ellis 10:34 That that that that tour that I had at Eglin Air Force Base with the refugees, will come back to to to 911 2001 and the experiences that I had at that refugee camp replicated in the Pentagon park and lot there in 911. So we'll get to that. I'll explain it further. Michael Hingson 10:56 Yeah, I'm sure it was a a great a great lesson. Where did you do college, or did you Bob Ellis 11:03 went to went to Duke University and the University and the University of Maryland? Michael Hingson 11:10 Okay. Well, at Bob Ellis 11:12 least much of it was correspondence as well, only because I was deployed for for so many years back to back, 17 moves in 34 years. Michael Hingson 11:22 Wow, Duke University. At least you didn't go to one of those other schools in North Carolina. Boy, talk about talk about rivalries and basketball. What a what a group down there. Bob Ellis 11:35 Oh, I know, I know. Michael Hingson 11:38 I once spoke in Kentucky, and the Wildcats were in the NCAA championship that year, and I was asked to speak at an event on the night of the championship. But I was told I had to end by 630. I could not go one second past 630 because the gym I was speaking in was going to clear out. Well, I ended in time so that at 630, what they said was absolutely true. That gym cleared out. Everybody went home to watch the game. Bob Ellis 12:09 That's that's sports. Michael Hingson 12:11 Not sports. It is, but it's okay. I I learned a lot down there and got to meet a number of people, and so it was it was a lot of fun to to do it, and then years later I was in North Carolina when NC State and UNC were playing to see who was going to go into the championship. So again, pretty interesting world, and and sports ruled everything then, so it's okay. It Bob Ellis 12:43 hasn't it hasn't changed at all because my my my daughter I got her graduate studies done at NC State, and it hasn't changed a bit. It's just I'll bet it's just crazy as it's when was 20 3040 years ago, Michael Hingson 12:58 and it shall ever be, won't it? Bob Ellis 13:01 Yeah, yeah. Her undergraduate degree was at University of Texas. This was my son's, and she went on to NC State, and and he went on to medical school in in Houston. Michael Hingson 13:16 Okay. Well, UC Irvine, when I was there, had the championship water polo team, but that's what we had. But they started basketball while I was there, although it wasn't anything huge. But a couple of years ago, they made it to the Sweet 16, and that was kind of fun for UC Irvine. One of these days, it'll go all the way. Bob Ellis 13:40 Yep. Michael Hingson 13:41 Well, anyway, so you you went to college, and and what did you major in? Bob Ellis 13:45 Political science. Michael Hingson 13:47 Okay, political science Bob Ellis 13:48 and business management. With a with my two aspirations, I wanted to. I really wanted to major in in aviation science, but that that wasn't offered. So that's political science and business science, business law. Michael Hingson 14:06 But you were working for the Army Air Force Exchange Service. What is that exactly? Bob Ellis 14:11 Yeah, it's a it's it's it's a non-appropriated funded Service provided all goods. I think of it as the the Walmart or the Target of of the civilian sector, except the Army Air Force Exchange Service has stored everything from stores, every business that you can think of therein, from stores to convenience stores to gas stations to beauty shops and barber shops to dining facilities, franchise Burger Kings, anything that a soldier and his family needs at the base or overseas or in the combat arena, where we were there with it, providing it. It's been a great career. Michael Hingson 14:59 Did you? Do you have any involvement with, especially here in the U.S. the the Randolph Sheppard programs, the blind vending stand operations at any of the facilities? Bob Ellis 15:09 Yep, sure did many many times. We're still working with it. There's there's some issues present right now under the Randolph Shepherd that they're looking at. I don't know what what's going to change, but yes, sir, we were very, very close to that. Michael Hingson 15:24 Yeah, I know there. The current government's looking at it; they want to scale a lot of it back, which would, I think, not be a good thing. I think there's a lot of reasons to keep it, but we'll see. We'll see. We'll see how it goes. But I, the closest I ever came to dealing with anything from AAES was I was invited to speak once at an organizational meeting of the National Property Managers Association in the military. Are you familiar with that? Bob Ellis 15:56 I am. Yes. Michael Hingson 15:57 And when I was asked to come, the Speakers Bureau didn't do a good research job because they told me, "Oh, it's the people who rent apartments and all that. When I got down to the to the event, I will say that the National Property Managers Association certainly serves a nice breakfast. But anyway, the conversation just didn't seem like what I what I was expecting. So I asked somebody, and they told me that the organization was the organization that had complete jurisdiction over anything physical that the government owned, and Bob Ellis 16:30 absolutely Michael Hingson 16:31 that that changed my grass. Sorry, Bob Ellis 16:34 right down to the grass, right down to the grass and the concrete. Michael Hingson 16:37 There you go. Well, it also changed my speech in 10 minutes, but it was fun. They invited me back the next year, so that was good. But it's it's fun when you're you're planning to do a particular speech, and suddenly it turns out it's got to change. It's good to have the flexibility to do that. But I'm I'm glad I had the opportunity to do it, and hopefully we'll have opportunities to do it again, but you have served a lot of different kinds of of services within AAES, and and I assume that's all worked out pretty well. Bob Ellis 17:14 That that worked out very well. Yep, I had I started at the bottom and and climbed as close to the top as I possibly could, but Michael Hingson 17:23 you eventually got the the highest medal that was available for civilians when you retired or after you retired. Bob Ellis 17:31 No, the highest award that I ever received was from my man over the Pentagon 911 support program, which was a nice medoris civilian award. Michael Hingson 17:46 Okay, where is your favorite place to live in the world? Or is that really easy to say? I mean, you've been all over the place and seen a lot of different kinds of places. Don't know how much you got to two of them, but anyway, Bob Ellis 18:00 it wasn't the two places that I that I went overseas, which was Japan and Greenland. Those were the longest tours of my life. Beautiful country in Japan, and and great facilities and support in tuning Greenland. But I would I would guess throughout the United States, I had a great assignment at the Army War College, and I had a great assignment at Travis Air Force Base here in Michael Hingson 18:26 California. Yeah, Bob Ellis 18:28 yeah. Michael Hingson 18:30 I've spoken. Bob Ellis 18:30 My son was born in Japan. He's dual citizen as a result on the Air Force Base, and my daughter was born in California. So it was a great time, mainly because the kids were younger and and and and we were in great climate areas. Michael Hingson 18:48 When people ask me what my favorite place in the United States is, I say everywhere. I I just enjoy meeting people wherever I go in the U.S. It's so many different cultures and customs and ways of doing things. It is so fun to to see all the different places and see how they are. People ask what I like, where I like outside the U.S. And so far, it's been New Zealand. I would say is probably the best, but Japan has to be up there too. I've really enjoyed being in Japan. I've been there a couple times, and I thoroughly enjoyed Bob Ellis 19:23 it. I, I had, I think the most the the greatest thing about the assignments was some of the people I I got to to meet in in my in my tours. One of them would be the Crown Prince of of Thailand, who who is now the king of Thailand, King Rama, got to meet him when he was a pilot, and supported him when when I was at Yokota Air Base, and multiple other celebrities. I I had the opportunity as a kid to attend the funeral. For Douglas MacArthur, and and his his memorial was right across the street in North Virginia from where my mother worked. And 20 years later, I had the opportunity to to meet mrs. Mcarthur, Jean MacArthur, at Gracie Mansion in New York, and I I I wrote protocol. I when it came time for her to to meet me and meet meet her, I got down on one knee and I held her hand and I said, "I want to tell you a little story, ma'am. And she said, "Well, certainly, absolutely. And I told her the story how when the general had died in in 1964, I was required by my my mother to go to the funeral, and the most fascinating person I'd ever seen in my life was herself, and she just got she just turned red. Well, long story short, I was at an army command at Fort Hamilton. The next day, the the group the the installation commander called me over to his office, very angry, but he wanted me to know that I was going to be the first civilian aide for the old lady, which was mrs. Mcarthur, and he had to take one of his lieutenants off. And I got to know the family and and the Mcarthurs as a result of that. So lots of opportunities, just absolutely amazing. 911, and we'll get to it. I got to meet President Bush momentarily, but I I got to meet him and have a short conversation. Michael Hingson 21:32 I got to meet him in 2005. We went to the Oval Office, and we were supposed to have a two minute photo op, but he kept wanting to interact. We ended up talking for about 15 minutes. He kept the Italian ambassador or prime minister waiting, but it was a was a great conversation. I very much enjoyed having the opportunity to meet with him. Bob Ellis 21:53 Yeah, he was remarkable. Michael Hingson 21:54 Yeah, in in so many ways.

Michael Hingson 22:33 So that's that's pretty cool. So as you were going around to all these different places, what would you say you were learning. Bob Ellis 22:41 I was learning business. I was learning relationships. I was learning marketing. Pretty much anything that you wanted to do as a general manager or a vice president, the exchanges let you do it. You know, until you got too far gone, and they they reel you back in. But I love being able to run multiple businesses on the installation, and and be accountable for them, and run them at a profit, and and at the end of the day, do great things for military families. Michael Hingson 23:16 Wow! So you um, you you've you've had a lot of challenges and and had to learn a lot of different things. Needless to say, but I would would think that you've you've been able to to keep a lot of that and use it. And you know we've referred to September 11 th, and so let's let's get to around that time. The first thing I would ask, and people have asked me, but you're in a better position in theory than I. Did you have any inkling that something like September 11th was going to happen? Bob Ellis 23:53 Well, actually, September 11th was was happening. I left for work about 4:30 in the morning. I lived out in the suburbs in Centerville, Virginia, and it was one of those days that you just wished you didn't have to go to work. It was the as the sun was coming up, it had a little cold breeze to it. The skies were blue. It was just one of those days that you just wanted to sit out in the yard and and relax or go bicycling, whatever. But I did my duty and I drove in to the Washington D.C. area and reported to my office on time, which was right around 5o'clock. My staff showed up around six and some at seven, and my secretary came in, and I don't know exactly what time it was, but it was shortly after, right around 9o'clock in Eastern Time, when the first airplane had hit the the trade center. Michael Hingson 24:49 Yeah, Bob Ellis 24:49 846-940-6846, Yes, right, 846. Yeah, and and so I I went in to look at the. The the television monitor standing there it was just her and I at the time and and and I said that's not an accident and she says how do you know that I said look at the skies that was an airliner they were talking about it was a little small private aviation well I'm a pilot I've been a pilot for 40 years 41 years I knew exactly, you know, that that where it was, what it was doing, and that wasn't a it wasn't an accident. And and my inkling was is that I was in a in rented space in Arlington, Virginia, because we had been moved out because the wedge that got attacked was the one that was still under construction. My office had not been completed there, and and I had a meeting in that wedge at 9o'clock that morning. And my secretary said to me, "You know, Bob, the Pentagon is next. And I paused for a minute and I looked at her and I said, "How in the world could you even imagine that, you know that that that's a fortress? Who would be crazy enough to attack the Pentagon? And she says, I I just I don't want you to go over, you know, just just just do it by phone, which I I probably could have done. And I said, No, I'm I'm going to go over there. If they're going if they're going to attack the Pentagon, I'm going to go down with it, and that was kind of my philosophy. So, in the back of my mind, seeing that airplane hit the Trade Center and her telling me that certainly made me wonder if it wasn't a possibility. Michael Hingson 26:33 So, you didn't. You don't think that anyone, and I've never heard of any such, but that anyone had any advance notice? There wasn't chatter. There wasn't anything that made people suspect what might be getting ready to happen. Bob Ellis 26:47 No, I I I think that is the the worst our country has ever been off guard. It reminds me of you know the the attack on Hawaii and that you know in in Pearl Harbor. We were completely unprepared, and I thought we were completely unprepared on 911. And in fact, after the attack, I knew we were unprepared when I saw the two jets fly over with no armament on the wings. So no, I don't think anybody had any idea. Michael Hingson 27:18 Well, the other side of it, and I've talked about this in in some talks I've given. I talk a lot about trust and teamwork, and like it or not, one of the things that I observe is you had 19 terrorists who functioned well enough as a team that they didn't talk about it. They didn't let anything come out. So no matter how much armament or whatever we might have had, I'm not sure whether we could have predicted that on September 11th, what occurred was going to happen. Bob Ellis 27:49 You know, all the indicators were there. You know, those those 19 trained at private airports, and they and during their training, it was it was reported multiple times that all they were interested in was taking off, not landing. I mean, first clue, you know. Okay. Why would you just be interested? He's taking off an airplane, and and I always found that very curious, and I'd heard it several times. That should have set alarm bells off. Should have. It didn't. Apparently, it did. Michael Hingson 28:20 Good point, and you know the the thing is though that, as as you pointed out, who would have thought that anybody would attack the Pentagon, the fortress that it was? Who Bob Ellis 28:33 yeah, Michael Hingson 28:33 who would have thought? So again, you can only go by what you got, and so nobody, I think, would have ever imagined that. Well, of course, the first plane hit the World Trade Center, and at first, people didn't really know what happened because there were really not very many people who who saw it. In fact, we only have the few photos that were taken by the French photographers who were there for something else, but then a little after nine, the second plane hit, and that changed the dynamic and changed the perspective a lot. Although a bunch of people who started seeing it on TV thought it was just a movie, and it wasn't true, but the second plane hitting changed the attitudes. I think for most people, and that's when people knew something was going on. Bob Ellis 29:24 Yeah, I didn't know anything about the second trade center. I had left my office in Crystal City, and I had headed to the Pentagon. And the meeting, the meeting that I had was with the Army Personnel Chief and several other folks. And as it turned out, that is exactly the window that the airplane flew into. That was ground zero for the for the for the target for the airplane going in just above the first floor for the Pentagon. So I didn't know anything. I was I was trapped at that point. I was trapped. Couldn't go um. Wouldn't go um. Didn't want to go um. And I had lived in New York City for five years, and I was my biggest. I was always impressed by the New York City Fire Department. I mean, they're they're just walking heroes if you've ever seen them. I mean, they were like they were like giants when you got next to them, and that they would they were just superhumans. And I always wondered upon the top floors how in the world you would get a fire put out at the top of the World Trade Center, and and I did not know until two days later when I made it home. That was my first question to my family: How did they get the the fire out at the top of the World Trade Center? And I and and it was repeated to me centers, and I said, What are you talking about? Centers in my family, and they said, "Bob, the World Trade Centers are gone. I said, "I don't understand. How could they be gone? And that was that. That was you know two days later that I found out about that. It was quite a shock to me to learn what it actually while I was on on the Pentagon mission. Michael Hingson 30:58 Well, when the first plane hit. Well, in the second plane, the firefighters were going up the stairs carrying all their equipment, and I had had had known about that and asked people, "Well, why are you or would you be carrying equipment? Because I met I I didn't meet the FDNY people ahead of the World Trade Center attacks, but I did meet with other people to learn about emergency preparedness and so on because I felt as the leader of an office, it was my job to know because I wasn't going to be able to read signs, and I love information, so I was trying to learn all I could, and they told me that where would if you if you had equipment stored in the in the towers, then people would go to it. Firefighters would go to it and get the the equipment. What floor do you put it on? Because no matter what floor you put it on, what if the fire broke out one floor below? You know, you can't get to the equipment. So the only way they could get up the stairs to fight the fires was to carry all of the equipment with them, yep, yep. Not enough is said about those guys in history. No, and I met a number of them coming up the stairs as we were going down, and they wanted to escort me down, and I didn't want them to do that because I knew they were a team, and I I pushed back pretty hard and said, no, you guys go up and we'll go down unless we can help you fight the fires, and they said no. The reason they eventually let me go down without any assistance was I had a friend with me who could see, and I said, "Look, David can see. Don't worry about us. And David and they turned to David and they said, "You're with him. And David said, "Yeah, leave him alone. He's fine. So we went on down, and they went up. I don't know whether the people we interacted with made it down or perished up above. It was about 10 after 10 after nine or so when we got to the 30th floor where we met them. So it was another hour and almost 20 minutes before the tower collapsed, but I don't know where the firefighters were, or how many people from the groups that we interacted with perished, or if they all made it out. I don't know, but Bob Ellis 33:12 yep, I I memorized all those numbers. You know, 189 between the airplane and the Pentagon, 200 injured, but 189. 189 total were 64 on the airplane, 125 in the Pentagon, and I'll never forget those numbers. Yeah, I'll never forget the time. I looked at my watch at 9:17, and and I have to tell you that on 9/11, I always sit very quietly until I get past 917, not 937. I'm sorry, 937. Michael Hingson 33:48 So Bob Ellis 33:48 in the morning. Michael Hingson 33:49 So, how close were you to where the plane came into the Pentagon? Bob Ellis 33:56 About 300 yards. When when it was clear that the meeting wasn't going to happen because the air traffic control system had been shut down. They released us to go back to our our offices, and I was going out the front door. I left about 930. It was supposed to start at nine 930. The generals said we'll just reconvene, and and I agreed. And from his office on on the south portico, I was walking out the front door. Literally, I heard the engines spool up. I had been in the AOR in rail combat munitions, and and I've heard cruise missiles, and and I could hear this one spinning up, and I thought it was a cruise missile, and so when it hit when it hit the building, it was just it was just a horrendous sound. But my first impression was to run to it to see what happened, what what what caused that, and there was nothing there. It was just four or five cars burning and smoke billowing out of the building. And and the the rest turned into a you know a rescue and a a recovery. Michael Hingson 35:08 AOR is what Bob Ellis 35:10 the area of responsibility. Michael Hingson 35:13 Okay, area of responsibility. Okay, Bob Ellis 35:16 yeah, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, wherever we are, it's it's N A O R, and that's your A O R. That's state. That's where you are. So that that's where I encountered first first and only live person coming out of the building, and which was a which was a really big surprise. But I knew that there was something that I I had to do, and and one of the things was to, if he needed assistance, getting him assistance. And there were several people. He was he was he was burned third degree burns over his whole body. He lived. I said one prayer was for him. And as it turned out, he became a a great ambassador. Turned out to be a great friend, and is actually back in the Pentagon to this day, just steps away from his old office as a civilian, went went back on a presidential appointment. Michael Hingson 36:09 So, you mentioned the general a while ago. Was did he survive? Bob Ellis 36:15 No, he was the he was the highest ranking person that we lost in in the entire encounter, and it was the entire office was just instantly vaporized. So he did not survive. Michael Hingson 36:33 Well, so you heard the engines revving up, and you went after you heard the explosion and so on. You went over to see what was going on, and then what did you do? Because it certainly had to be a major surprise and a shock by any standard. Bob Ellis 36:49 Yeah, I went that side of the building, saw the hole in the building, kind of convinced myself it was a cruise missile, but I never heard such a loud engine noise. As it turned out, it was it was two big engines off of a 757 200, and so I immediately tried to figure out you know what can I do? What should I do? Should I even be here? And that's when I saw the colonel coming out of the building, and I was able to walk with him and four others over to the the road, the Washington Boulevard that goes around the Pentagon, and and I sat down on the telephone pole, a light pole that the airplane hit going in. Now I'm a pilot, and and I have to tell you to take an airplane going at Mach point eight seven, and hit a target, hit the building, and not hitting the ground was just absolutely amazing to me. So as they got the colonel into an SUV and and and got him out of the the scene, I sat there. Just it was almost like a movie I was watching. The triage was being set up. The Pentagon was burning. The emergency services units were starting to show up, and we had very intermittent phone capability. And I had I had a a friend, my my the commander that I worked for in Dallas at the time. This secretary's husband was a bodyguard for Secretary Rumsfeld, and and Secretary Rumsfeld was actually carrying litter patients, carrying people out of the debris area and out of the offices. He was actually helping people, and he he realized that something needed to be done. So he gave Jerry a note, a piece of paper. We called them snowflakes, but it was a tablet, and he had listed what needed to be done and what needed to be done now. And Jerry found me sitting over there and gave me that that piece of paper, and it had everything listed on it. He wanted a a tactical field operation in place. He wanted it now, not yesterday. He wanted something in the interim, and it was to provide emergency relief supplies. So I I sat down on that telephone pole and I called our our local dist not local our largest distribution center in the world was down in Newport News, and I got the director on the phone and I said, I have an official order from you coming from the Secretary of Defense, and and don't override, don't just just follow my instructions until we can get to the commander at AFIS headquarters, and so I gave him the list. I just gave him the full list of things that we needed to get rolling, and I called another gentleman that was just across the river, the American Logistics Association, which owned all of the brokers and manufacturers, and I gave him a list of stuff that we needed now, like Gatorade boots. the The surface was over 2000 degrees, and the emergency service boots were melting almost upon contact. So I had I had 1000s, hundreds of 1000s of dollars of equipment. And supplies coming in, and we set up the USO tent, put everything in the USO tent. We raided all the stores in the in the Washington D.C. area. I was able to contact the region manager, and I told him, you know, what we needed to take it off the shelf, put it in the back seat of the cars, don't account for it, and get it to me. And that's what we did the entire first night was setting up the USO trailer, and the next morning I had two tactical field tractor trailers coming up the ramp just as the sun was coming up, and they were loaded with supplies, and that's what stayed in place for the next two months. Over $2 million worth of merchandise, emergency recovery type merchandise, everything from linens to the towels to eye wash, and and and we had to actually have some special boots made out of leather for the dogs because the dogs' feet were so it was it was quite an operation. We ended up well running within within 24 hours of the attack, Michael Hingson 41:04 why is it that you are able to stay pretty focused through all of this? Bob Ellis 41:08 I you know I you know I I've often asked that question. I wanted to go home. Alls I could think of is my kids, my wife. What what are they doing? What are they thinking? They're watching this on the news, and I had I had drifted over to which my car was very close, and it was taped off. The parking lot was taped off. It was a crime scene. There was no going anywhere. There was no transportation. If I wanted to walk 40 miles, I guess I could have, but because I couldn't go anywhere, I had to do something there on the scene, so that's that's that's what I did, and and it wasn't until the next day when the phone started working again, our two star in Dallas was able to get through to me on on my BlackBerry, and he wanted to know what the situation was, and and and I told him, and and he said, what what are we going to do? And I explained to him what we had done already, and he says, "How did you do all of that? I said, "I picked up the phone and I told him I was working for Secretary Rumsfeld, and this is the order. And and he says, "How are we going to pay for all of this? I said, "Sir, this is our finest hour. We're not. We're going to donate. These are all donating goods, and and it really was an interesting. I I just I just don't know. I was compelled. He he he ordered me on that second day to go home, and and I said I had no way to go home. And he said go to the motor pool. I'm going to call the motor pool. He had been the commander of the Air Force One Squadron, so he had a lot of connections in Washington, and he he got me a car, and I went home long enough to change clothes and and and to come back out. So it was it was just out of adrenaline, I think. Somebody had to do something, and and everything that I've told you here today is not written anywhere in history. I own every bit of what happened in in in that story, other than some of the people that were working there. Michael Hingson 43:07 What phone did you use that first day? You said you're you're it was the second day or the next day that you're phoned. So how were you able to communicate? Bob Ellis 43:17 We had Blackberries, and and until the networks got completely overrun, we were able to use it. And and so by the second third day, we we had pretty consistent communication, because the the the commander called me back that same morning, and and he said, you know, he said, how come you haven't been home? And I explained to him, and he says, "Will you do me one favor? And I said, "I would. He said, "Will you go back into the building? Said, "Sir, the building's on fire. He says, "Well, well, you get in the front, and I'm looking at it. He was looking at it on television, and the military clothing store was in the very front, within 100 feet, probably of that door that I went out of. And he says, "Would you see if our people survive, and if the store itself survived? It was sitting near the the area. I went in the store. I went into the building, into the burning building, and was able to look in the door, and I could see that the the room was full of smoke, and the door was locked. So I told him I would assume that our people made it out, alive and okay. And they say that was a, and they did, and they absolutely did. And in fact, everybody that that that that had any kind of supervisory capability around the Beltway, they volunteered to come over and work for me and and operating that facility for 2024 hours a day, seven days a week. Wow! So and not and not to shorten the the question, I wasn't there, but because of what I was doing in the in the Pentagon, my old homestead was at Fort Hamilton. Fort Hamilton picked up the same thing and went over to the Trade Center area, and they gave them a place to put a mobile. Food truck, and they brought supplies in and pretty much supported the firefighters and the and the and the police there. So so we had quite an operation going for a long time. Michael Hingson 45:11 Yeah, and and needed to, but it was interesting and commendable that in both places people were able to focus, and were able to carry out missions. I know at the World Trade Center when the two towers collapsed. Of course, it was it was unexpected, but we know now, of course, why they collapsed. It wasn't that the planes hit; it's that they were they were full of what 36,000 pounds of jet fuel each, and that exploding jet fuel is what damaged the infrastructure of the buildings to cause them to be able to collapse. But as well as at the Pentagon, but very quickly people were able to start to move and deal with issues and put procedures in place that were able to, I'm sure, keep more people from perishing and keep kept more people being able to focus throughout the whole the whole sequence of events. It it certainly was very scary, but it is something that that people like you were able to do. I know for me, the reason I was able to focus was because I had learned what to do in an emergency at the World Trade Center. I spent time with people and I learned how the whole building was structured, so I knew when the building tipped, why it tipped, and and things like that. You Bob Ellis 46:40 felt it. You you felt it. Michael Hingson 46:43 Oh yeah. Oh my god. We moved probably at least 20 feet, and then it came back, and oh my Speaker 2 46:48 god, it Michael Hingson 46:48 got vertical again. It got vertical again, and then a few seconds later, it dropped about six feet because the expansion joints went back to their normal configuration. But Bob Ellis 46:59 we uh we we knew from 937 till about 5o'clock that evening there would be no more survivors. It was over, and and and the dogs were getting depressed because they were they were they were not cadaver dogs. They were recovery dogs, and they were used to fight. And we we actually had ceremonies for the dogs every day, where we sewed flags onto their collars, and they had special water and special food. So they played a big, big role in morale, mine especially. Michael Hingson 47:33 And at the same time, I know people had to do drills to keep the dogs focused because they weren't able to find people, as you said, so they had to do things to give them something to find to keep them happy, which was was so important. Bob Ellis 47:50 Yeah, that we had two two tractor trailers lined up. It was just just two 300 feet from where you went into the damaged area of the Pentagon, and those dogs and their handlers would get up underneath those trailers and sleep, and they would play with the dogs. We actually had some carpets brought out, tarps brought out, and that's kind of where that was kind of their headquarters during 911. We had to make it up as we went along, and and the other interesting part of this story is in 1972 at the at the refugee camp, I was sleeping in the back of a van because there was just no way to go home. It was too it was too far to drive home to turn around and come back at 8o'clock the next morning, and I heard somebody knocking at the door, and and and I and I opened up the door, and it was a military colonel in uniform, and there was a civilian standing there with him. And he says, "Are you part of this operation? And I said, "Yes, sir, I am. He said, "Who are you with? And I said, "The Army Air Force Exchange Service. And and he says, "You're not provided any other facilities. This, I said, that was my choice. And as it turned out, I was speaking to Secretary Rumsfeld during his first administration as Secretary of Defense, and it was interesting that when he found out that what I did in in that program, I won the Indo Indo China Award for service, and then of course you you move ahead to to 2001, and we we knew each other. I had briefed him several times, and we we knew each other in the Pentagon. And that day, he knew that I would know what to do for the support role, and that's why he sent the letter up. And as it turned out, when he retired and and left the Pentagon, he was on a book tour, and and the the general secretary and myself got an invite to come to the book tour with him and and have lunch with him. And he handed me a book and he said, "I want you to have this, but I don't want you to open it up until you, Bob. I don't want you to open it up till you get home. I don't want you to give it to your wife. And and it was like this. Sure, I'm not not a problem, and so I got I got home. You know, this is this is 10 years later, and handed the book to her, and I said, "Open it up. I'm not wasn't allowed, and there's a nice thank you page on the front from Secretary Rums for allowing him to use me on 9/11, and you just you just that's the best reward that I could have ever ever expected. A guy that I just idolized to do that. Michael Hingson 50:26 When you got home, so you weren't able to talk to your wife before you got home, or did you ever get communication so you could call her? Bob Ellis 50:33 No, I didn't. I when I finally got the phone back up and running and got in the car. I had lost the battery, so I said, "I'm gonna be home in in an hour. I'll just be there. But General Wax called up, and she answered the phone. She went. She went sometime during that day and pulled the kids out of the private school, brought them home. She could see my car. It was a yellow SUV, and she could see it in the South parking lot in the news choppers going around. She said that was my car where my spot was, and General Wax got her on the phone and she and and she answered the phone and he said this is C J Wax and she thought that was the call. She thought that was it, and she alls I could do was drop to my knees and and and C J said and it's it's okay. I've ordered him to come home. He's all right. He's running. He's running a a program for us for for recovery. And if he's not there, he should be there shortly. And then by the time I got there, I got to the front step. I'm asking the question about the World Trade Center, how they got the fire out, and I was ordered that I could not go in the house because I smelled like smoke. So, so two minutes before that, I was the most important person in the world, and and then all of a sudden, I was I was back to Bob, and I wasn't going to wear that that suit in the house to to smoke it. So anyway, that's that's how she found out. He he called her up. I asked him. I think I asked him if he would get in touch with her at our last conversation, and he did. Michael Hingson 52:06 Soon after both towers collapsed, like a minute or so later, I called and got through to my wife Karen. I had talked with her before we left our office, and then when we got downstairs, I couldn't get through to her because the circuits were busy, and it was obvious that everyone we learned later was saying goodbye to loved ones, and so the circuits were busy. So after both towers collapsed, I was able to get through to her, and as I tell people, there were tears on both sides of the phone at the when that conversation started, but she was the first one who told us how two aircraft had been crashed into the World Trade Center towers, one to the Pentagon, and at that time, the fourth one was apparently still missing over Pennsylvania, and of course, then it crashed at Shanksville. Bob Ellis 52:52 I love it. Michael Hingson 52:54 Yeah, but we, you know, we talked, so she knew I was okay. Then a friend of ours, Tom Painter, who had been a friend of Karen's at high school out in California, but Tom, over the years, had ended up moving to New Jersey. He came down to stay with her, not knowing until he arrived whether I was in the office that day or out with a customer or what was going on. And of course, then she told him, and so he drove her to the train station to pick me up. When, when I got back out to Westfield, we went home. And you talk about with with dogs. We got in the house, and I took Roselle's harness off because I was going to take her out, and she would have none of it. She ran off, grabbed her favorite tug bone and started playing tug of war with my retired guide dog Linny, and I talked to the veterinarians at Guide Dogs for the Blind in San Rafael the next day, and they said, "Did anything threaten her? And I said, "No, not directly. And they said, "That's why she ran off because it was over. Nothing threatened her. Bob Ellis 53:58 Comfortable. Michael Hingson 53:59 She, they don't. Dogs don't do what if like we do, and so she was comfortable. She was happy. She wanted to play, and then then she did go out. But by the same token, the the whole point was that she was able to deal with with all of it and was able to to focus. Then we got her outside and and came back in, and she ate and and all that. But the the the thing is that she focused all day, and and she did a a wonderful job. And the reason that she focused and did so well was mainly because I worked at keeping her focus by telling her every chance I got. You're a good girl. What a good dog! Good dog. You're doing a great job. Keep going. I did that all the way down the stairs in the World Trade Center, and I was very deliberate about that because I knew she had to sense the fear and what was going on, and I wanted her to know that I was okay and I was going to be there for. Her, which is of course what teamwork and support is all about. You understand that very well. You you proved it in so many ways. I kept working with Roselle and kept her focused, and you know it all it all really went well. I still think one of the most relevant things for me in the World Trade Center. I went down the stairs with a guy named David Frank. David was from our corporate office in California, and David and I were going to be conducting sales seminars that day, teaching some resellers how to sell our products. And we got down to about the 50th floor, so David was there to talk about the the pricing and so on. I was going to do the majority of the presentation because I was going to be their technical contact, anyway, and we got to about the 50th floor, going down, and suddenly David said, "Mike, we're going to die. We're not going to make it out of here. And as I tell people, since I got a teaching credential, I had learned all about the secrets of how to yell at students. So I just said, "Stop it, David. If Roselle and I can go down these stairs, so can you. And he then immediately said that I brought him out of his spunk, and he told me that later as well. But what he told me was that he wanted to walk a floor below me on the stairs and shout up to me everything that he was seeing. He had to take his mind off of what was going on, and so he asked if I cared, and I said, "No, go ahead. That's what you need to do. That's fine. So I got like down to the 48th floor, and he yelled, "47th floor, Mike. All's clear here. Going on down. So we went down several floors that way. Eventually, I got to 45, and he was 44th floor. This is where the Port Authority cafeteria is not stopping. And the reason I mention it is because I think what David did is one of the unsung things that is so important from September 11th. He kept shouting up to me everything that he saw, but the reality is, anyone in the sound of his voice heard that there was someone who was okay going down the stairs, and he had to keep panic out of people's senses for so many individuals, because they just heard him, Mike, 43rd floor, all's good here. Going on down the stairs, all the way down the stairs. He had to have been able to keep so many people focused because he was able to keep his mind off of what was going on by shouting to me, and I think that that's so important, and so I'm. I always tell that story. I've been telling it for many years now because I want people to know what he did to keep so many people focused going down the stairs, and he had to have done that. Bob Ellis 57:31 Well, you know, I have. That's that's the first I've heard that, and and and and I read everything that I followed your story very closely, as well as the colonel who I was so close to, but there there are a couple of stories that are just never mentioned, not talked about, and one of them where we had to do every day. There was an update that the military gave the families an update as to what is happening, what was found, what was recovered, what to expect, and they would bring the kids in to listen to these brutal military briefings. I mean, just you know, these were these were soldiers, these were these were combat folks, and this is the way they briefed. And the therapy dogs were brought in, and there wasn't but about a dozen of them, and I will never forget not only the kids on the floor with the arms around those dogs, but some of the adults were as well. And I thought, what what a moment! That was the most touching moment of my entire life witnessing that. I mean, I could have done without it, but it was it was a very special moment. And then the the other thing that the world doesn't know about is on the second day, I got a I got a phone call from Secretary Rumsfeld's office that the VA was completely out of coffin flags. We had nothing in inventory to to cover the remains or the caskets for burial, and what could I do? And and right right from the Pentagon parking lot, I I called one of the buyers that bought American flags in Dallas, and then I asked her who do you get flags from, and she says it's American Flag Company. I'll give them credit for that, and and I said you need you need to get their entire inventory. We need to get it flown in, whatever expenses cover it, and get them here. The Pentagon doesn't have them, and New York doesn't have them. And those flags came in. They were they were there about that midnight that that that night. Now boxed up, thrown in the bag box, whatever tape they were bound, but everybody that came out later, you know, the recoveries as we got deeper into the debris, that had a had a flag that that came that came from us in the as well as at the Pentagon, and they put two very big special flags in there. I mean, like you see flying over a car dealer. And they hung that on the side of the Pentagon. And if you look at any of the any of the news willers of that time, it was on day two that flag was hanging that that came in with the rest of the other flags. So it was it was quite impressive. You never know what the next moment was going to bring you on you know from my side and and and can I meet the challenge? That was what I constantly worry about. How could I let any of this down? And I've got to do something. And and we were making it up as we went along. Michael Hingson 1:00:33 Yeah, that's all you could do. And so when I go back to Bob Ellis 1:00:37 to to this to this day, you know, we go back. They've got 184 markers. I don't know how many people attend it, but it's it's right in that zone, right outside the building, in that grassy area where they they they've made that memorial. And 184 people, to include I think two infants, are are memorialized there forever, which is very touching. It was a that was a hard place to go back to. Still was New York City when I went to it because I'd never I had never been 20 years 20 years yet 18 years before I ever went to to New York City to see the recovery there. I've never I've not been to the to the to the Pennsylvania field. I plan to go. I want to go. Just hadn't been convenient to get there, but but if I do that, I will have seen all all the sites. Michael Hingson 1:01:26 Yeah, I haven't been to Pennsylvania either. In 2017, I did make it to the World Trade Center Museum. In well, so we moved out of Westfield, and I moved back to California in late January, beginning of February of 2002, to work for Guide Dogs for the Blind and and speak from there. And traveled around and speak. Karen was there for a couple more months selling our home, and then she came out. But in May of 2002, Roselle was going to be honored by Hart's Mountain, the pet food and pet supply company. So, so we went back to New York, and while we were there, I met one of the police officers with with one of the service with one of the rescue dogs that that had been around the World Trade Center, and he arranged for us to get in a vehicle and drive down into the pit that was where the World Trade Center was, and they had built an artificial, well, a temporary road, and they were bringing things up, but we got to go down to what would have been the seventh sublevel, the bottom of the tower, and it was just a for me just imagining it standing in that dirt area in a hole seven stories deep and remembering what what it was like, and then in 2017 I went to the World Trade Center Museum and got to spend a little bit of time there, and of course everything had been rebuilt. The reflecting pool was there, and so on. But it was nothing like what I remembered from having been in the World Trade Center, and I walked around with someone who was able to be aware and describe what was where we were and what was above us, or what part of the building we were in as we walked through the complex. But of course, it was totally different. So it was it was such a strange feeling to experience all of that. But we did it, you know. And so now I've been to the museum, and actually there is a there's an animal exhibit in the basement, and Roselle's collar is is part of that exhibit. We donated that to oh Bob Ellis 1:03:50 really, oh really, oh God, I I was I was thinking that when I asked you that question earlier today, and I was thinking about that that has got to be remarkable, you know that that that's what touched me so much at the period. That the fact that the two of you were such a team, and I read everything that newspapers printed and watched. I guess there was some there was some CBS specials and so forth too, where you were interviewed, and it was it was just it was just absolutely amazing. Michael Hingson 1:04:21 Well, it is. you know, it is a an awe-inspiring sort of thing. And you know, people always say, you know, don't you feel guilty about surviving when so many people didn't? And and I said, no, I I didn't have any control over that. But what I do have control over is having been a survivor. What am I going to do about it? It's my responsibility to decide how I'm going to deal with moving forward after something like that. And of course, the opportunity opened to travel and speak, and so I've been doing it ever since. And I believe my job is. Is to educate people about what happened on September 11th, and let them know t

Al cumplirse un mes del terremoto que sacudió el occidente de Colombia, RFI recorrió varios municipios del norte del Valle del Cauca, entre ellos Roldanillo, Toro y El Águila. Entre viviendas destruidas, refugios improvisados y obras apenas iniciadas, los testimonios recogidos muestran que la reconstrucción avanza a ritmos muy desiguales y que, en muchos casos, depende de la solidaridad de familiares, vecinos y donantes. Reportaje de nuestra corresponsal en Cali, Carmen Andrea Rengifo. El 10 de agosto pasado, a las 7h34 de la mañana, la tierra se movió con fuerza. El epicentro del terremoto, de magnitud 7,4, fue en el municipio de San José del Palmar, en el departamento del Chocó. La sacudida atravesó el occidente colombiano y dejó más de 330 muertos. Estamos en Roldanillo, en el norte del Valle del Cauca. Ha pasado un mes desde el terremoto. En la fachada de la vivienda de Luz Mary Giusti Varela se lee un aviso que dice: "Uso restringido". A sus 78 años, Luz Mary está sacando con las manos los restos de su casa. “Qué íbamos a pensar que de la noche a la mañana íbamos a tener este inconveniente tan grave”, dice. Desde el terremoto duerme donde una hermana, pero vuelve todos los días para retirar escombros y recuperar lo que todavía puede salvar. “Desde el día del terremoto toda mi familia, mis sobrinos, me ayudaron a sacar todos los enseres y a llevarlos a cuatro casas de familiares. Luego hemos venido aquí poco a poco, sacando lo que nos ha ido quedando y tratando de retirar los escombros para aprovechar cuando viene el carro recolector de escombros”. Le preguntamos de donde sale ese carro. “Pues me imagino que el municipio”. Luego nos invita a entrar para ver las condiciones en que quedó mi casa. “No podemos habitarla. Esta pared se nos desploma hacia el lado de allá. Mire que está bien abierta”, dice señalando unas grietas. Cuando empezó a temblar, ella estaba adentro de su residencia. Mientras recorremos la vivienda, señala el lugar exacto donde se encontraba y el bloque que cayó a pocos pasos. “Yo me quedé en el marco de una puerta, aquí, en esta pieza. Me agarré así y alcancé a salir”. Luz Mary sigue entrando a una casa que oficialmente no puede habitar. Un ingeniero le explicó que la estructura podría repararse con columnas y vigas de amarre. La vivienda fue construida por su padre en 1952 y quedó para la familia. Solidaridad en San Pacho En San Pacho, corregimiento del municipio de Toro, nos encontramos con Bertha Oliva Bedoya, de 77 años. Camina despacio desde el fondo del galpón, apoyada en dos muletas. La artrosis le dificulta el andar. “Ella está discapacitada, pero no se queda quieta”, nos dice la vecina que nos conduce hasta ella. La mañana del 10 de agosto Bertha Oliva estaba atendiendo a sus gallinas, limpiando la cochera y poniendo agua a los animales. “Cuando empezó el terremoto escuché a los vecinos gritar. Yo estaba solita. Me agarré de un poste que había ahí. Menos mal el techo no tenía tejas, sino zinc. Cuando todo pasó vi el desastre: la casa de allá se cayó encima de la mía. Todo el techo cayó sobre el mío y mi casa se fue hacia el otro lado del cerco. Cuando miré, las paredes se tambaleaban”. Un mes después, el terreno de Bertha ya no luce como aquel primer día. Entre los restos de la antigua vivienda aparecen nuevas paredes y una cocina que todavía está en obra gris. “Mi hijo y muchas amistades vinieron a ayudarnos. Llegó una familia de Cali, vino mucha gente. Entre todos hicieron un combo. De Toro vinieron muchas amistades. Mi hijo trajo un maestro de obra de Pitalito, Huila, y a las carreras levantaron esto que ve aquí. En trece días levantaron todo”, dice. Pero esas primeras paredes no significan que la reconstrucción esté resuelta. Su hijo tuvo que volver a Pitalito y lo que falta depende ahora de materiales que la familia consiga fiados. Damos gracias a Dios porque la señora de la ferretería nos dio lo que necesitábamos. Nos dijo: "Me van pagando como puedan, de a millón o de a quinientos mil. Gracias a Dios nos facilitó todo para poder trabajar”, dice. Vallejuelo: promesas, pero sin fecha En Vallejuelo, otro corregimiento de Toro, Edinson Cañarte González camina entre los restos de la casa que construyó durante años. Tiene 76 años y se apoya en un bordón mientras nos invita a entrar. “Yo no puedo caminar mucho. Yo voy caminando lentamente”, dice. Mientras la prometida casa llega, Edinson ha tenido que resolver dónde dormir. Ensayó una noche en la vivienda de su hijo, pero no es una solución de largo plazo porque también está dañada y con las lluvias tuvieron que apuntalarla para evitar que se terminara de caer. Así que volvió a su terreno, donde apenas le levantaron un refugio provisional en el espacio que antes ocupaba su casa. “El alcalde ya ha venido dos veces a visitarme. Me dijo: ‘No se preocupe, le vamos a fabricar su casita'. La promesa está hecha, pero no sabe cuándo se la van a cumplir. Roldanillo, "buenos corazones" Muy cerca de allí, en Roldanillo, Consuelo Rojas Jiménez enfrenta otra incertidumbre. El albergue donde se refugia está por cerrar. Ella todavía no sabe dónde va a dormir después. Su casa quedó tan dañada que tuvieron que demolerla. Sus padres la habían levantado poco a poco, reuniendo materiales como podían. “Gracias a Dios han aparecido buenos corazones. Nos están regalando cemento y ladrillo. Ahora me siento más segura porque le van a poner columnas. Va a quedar mucho mejor”, confía. Las ayudas para la reconstrucción empiezan a llegar. Lo que Consuelo todavía no tiene es un lugar donde quedarse hasta que su casa vuelva a estar en pie. “Le pedimos el favor a cualquier persona que pueda ayudarnos. Anoche vino una prima y le dije: ‘Usted que anda en moto, avíseme si sabe de algún lugar'' Porque uno tiene que saber para dónde ir”. El Águila, hospital en ruinas, pero personal al frente De Roldanillo seguimos hacia el municipio de El Águila, en el extremo norte del Valle del Cauca. Allí el terremoto no solo golpeó viviendas, sino que también dejó en ruinas el Hospital San Rafael, el único centro asistencial del municipio y sus alrededores. Cuando el edificio empezó a moverse, pacientes y trabajadores salieron como pudieron. Una funcionaria quedó atrapada bajo un escritorio. Apenas terminó el sismo, dos compañeras regresaron al hospital, siguieron sus gritos y lograron rescatarla. No hubo muertos dentro del centro médico, pero el edificio ya no podía seguir funcionando. “Inmediatamente después del terremoto montamos un hospital de campaña. Sacamos las carpas de Misión Médica y las instalamos en el parque. Bomberos y Policía también ayudaron. Todo fue supremamente rápido. Sacábamos camillas, equipos y materiales, y los íbamos instalando en el parque para continuar la atención. Armamos una zona de urgencias y seguimos trabajando”, explica Olga Lucía Aguilar, la gerente del Hospital San Rafael. Con el paso de los días surgió otra tarea: encontrar dónde seguir atendiendo a los pacientes. La urgencia salió del parque y se trasladó a una construcción que había servido anteriormente como hospital. Otros servicios fueron repartidos entre locales, un puesto de salud y una casa. Un mes después, cerca de 60 trabajadores continúan distribuidos en tres lugares diferentes. “La terapia física va para uno de los locales de afuera. Citologías y programas de prevención están en uno de los cubículos. El laboratorio clínico toma las muestras aquí, aunque los análisis deben hacerse en otro sitio. Luego los resultados se entregan acá”, comenta Olga Lucía Aguilar. Cargando tejas a los 67 años En ese mismo municipio vive Amilbia Valle Gutiérrez. Tiene 67 años. La encontramos cargando tejas. Su casa creció al ritmo de lo que la familia podía conseguir: primero dos habitaciones, luego otra pieza y una pequeña cocina. El terremoto le arrancó el techo. Su esposo vive del jornal y desde entonces buena parte de sus días se van tratando de sostener lo que quedó. “Nos dicen que hay que esperar y esperar. Mi esposo fue a preguntar y le dijeron lo mismo, que hay que esperar. Y mire cuánto tiempo ha pasado. El terremoto fue el 10 de agosto y ya se cumplió el mes. Vivo con miedo de que se me moje la casita. Un señor noble me regaló un plástico y el otro lo compré con mucha dificultad”, dice. De regreso en Roldanillo, Luz Mary Justy sigue entrando a su casa para llenar recipientes con pedazos de pared, tierra y tejas. Los lleva hasta la calle y regresa por más. Una tarea que se ha tornado muy lenta por su edad. Tiene miedo de entrar, pero no se detiene. Le cuesta sostener el recipiente. Tiene 78 años y después del terremoto siente que está empezando de nuevo. “Nosotros no pensamos derribar la casa. Ya nos han dicho que tiene arreglo, que con una pared nueva y buenas vigas se puede salvar. Lo que pasa es que estas casas no tienen vigas de amarre, sino chonta”, explica. Un mes después, en el norte del departamento del Valle del Cauca, algunas paredes comienzan a levantarse. Otras casas siguen igual que el primer día de la tragedia. A unos la reconstrucción ya les llegó, a otros los dejó varados, contando los días bajo un plástico prestado.
Level Up – Especial Eterno Azul Este episodio es una guía pedagógica sobre el sistema de juego de Eterno Azul, un juego de aventura, picaresca y exploración disponible en Shadowlands. El autor detalla la mecánica fundamental del desafío, la gestión de riesgos, el uso estratégico de los bríos y cómo la Dirección de juego equilibra la narrativa mediante consecuencias y amenazas. El sistema se basa en el binomio riesgo-consecuencia, donde los jugadores asumen el control narrativo a través de la bravata y la gestión de recursos. Eterno azul Introducción y contexto del juego El autor presenta el 5º episodio especial dedicado a Eterno Azul. Se enfatiza que el juego busca ofrecer una experiencia donde los personajes se ganan la vida enfrentando peligros, tesoros y criaturas sobrenaturales. El concepto de Desafío La mecánica central es el desafío: una situación arriesgada con consecuencias potenciales. No todo requiere tirar dados; si una acción es común o está dominada, no hay necesidad de azar. La Dirección de juego determina cuándo la incertidumbre justifica esta mecánica. Construcción de la reserva de dados Para resolver un desafío, se forma una reserva de dados: Acciones: Se elige el dado correspondiente (d6 a d12). Señas: Se añade un dado (d8 a d12) si la seña es adecuada; si no, un d6. Ventaja : Se añade un d6 por cada fuente de ventaja (apoyo, herramientas, situaciones). Modificaciones : Se aplican aumentos o reducciones de tamaño de dado según las reglas. Resolución y lectura de resultados Éxito: Cada dado con 4+ otorga 1 éxito; 8+ otorga 2 éxitos. Comparación: El total de éxitos se compara con el valor de amenaza de la situación. El Sistema de Riesgo y Valor de Amenaza El riesgo mide la imprevisibilidad. Si los éxitos son menores o iguales al riesgo, el jugador logra su objetivo pero acepta una consecuencia impuesta por la Dirección de juego. Si los éxitos superan el riesgo, el objetivo se cumple sin consecuencias. La Bravata: El Arte de Arriesgarse La bravata permite proponer un objetivo extra a cambio de una consecuencia negociada, otorgando ventaja en la tirada. Si falla, el jugador enfrenta tanto la consecuencia de la Dirección de juego como la negociada. Condiciones y Desafíos Conjuntos Las condiciones funcionan como etiquetas con intensidad numérica (ej. “envenenado 3”). Los PNJ no tiran dados; sus acciones se canalizan a través de consecuencias o amenazas. El Poder de los Bríos Los bríos son el recurso narrativo de los buscadores (3 iniciales). Uso principal: Repetir todos los dados de un desafío. Usos avanzados: Mitigar consecuencias (dividir el daño a la mitad), introducir elementos narrativos consensuados o activar aptitudes específicas. Recuperación: Se recupera 1 al descansar si se está a cero, o al admitir la derrota voluntariamente (“liarla”) antes de un desafío. Progresión y futuros sistemas El autor aclara que los sistemas complejos (combate, navíos, magia con Verbos de poder arcano) derivan de estas reglas básicas. “La base de Eterno Azul es el riesgo y las consecuencias.” “El riesgo no es dificultad; cuanto más arriesgada es una acción, hay mayor probabilidad de que las cosas se salgan de madre, de que pase algo inesperado.” “Una bravata es una idea feliz, es un momento de atrevimiento y algo de estupidez en el que el personaje trata de hacer algo excepcional.” “La manera más habitual de recuperar bríos es liándola. Porque esto es eterno azul.” Música de Uppbeat: License code: DSJHNLFTIRWBKXPO Música de Youtube

In this episode the guys sit down with seven-time Mr. Olympia Phil Heath for a wide-ranging conversation covering the military, faith, bodybuilding and business. Phil shares stories from years of USO tours — including a trip to Guantanamo Bay with the Most Interesting Man in the World, drinking the ceremonial grog three times at a Medal of Honor ceremony, and training with Marines on base. He breaks down how being a hyper responder shaped his approach to PEDs (less is more), the problem with influencers recommending a gram of testosterone or 400-500mg of Trenbolone to beginners, why he believes GLP-1s are essentially cheating in competition prep, why he thinks no one in the open division is bringing diet face anymore, how barbell rows and training back twice a week transformed his physique, the mental shift from training angry to training joyful after his faith walk, his four and a half years of depression post-retirement, how he turned down Hollywood roles he felt were degrading, and his anticipation of becoming a father for the first time at 46. The guys also get into bodybuilding prize money history — from $100K and a Hummer in the early Arnold years to Arnold and the Olympia now bidding against each other toward $750K and beyond.

No episódio de hoje do Radar Médico, Juliana Karpinski, médica, jornalista e editora assistente de Carreira do Portal Afya, discute como a comunicação pode aumentar o envolvimento do paciente durante os atendimentos por telemedicina.A consulta virtual amplia o acesso ao cuidado, mas a distância física e as limitações da tela podem favorecer impessoalidade, ruídos de comunicação e menor adesão. Com base em uma revisão sistemática publicada no Journal of Medical Internet Research, o episódio apresenta estratégias para fortalecer o vínculo, melhorar a compreensão das orientações e estimular a participação ativa do paciente no próprio tratamento.
Hai mai provato a riportare le parole di qualcun altro e non sapevi quale tempo verbale usare? Non eri sicuro se servisse il congiuntivo o l'indicativo? Il discorso indiretto è uno degli argomenti più insidiosi della grammatica italiana e anche gli studenti avanzati commettono errori. In questo articolo scoprirai come riportare correttamente quello che qualcuno ha detto, ha chiesto o ha ordinato. 5 Errori da Evitare con il Discorso Indiretto Errore 1: Usare il Tempo Sbagliato per Riportare Notizie (al Passato) Partiamo dalle basi. Che cos'è il discorso indiretto? In pratica, è quando riporti le parole di qualcun altro senza citarle direttamente, cioè senza usare le virgolette. Per esempio: Discorso diretto: «Marco dice: "Ho fame."»Discorso indiretto: «Marco dice che ha fame.» Come puoi notare, abbiamo tolto le virgolette e abbiamo aggiunto che. Fin qui semplice. Il problema nasce quando il verbo introduttore – cioè il verbo che introduce le parole dell'altra persona – è al passato. Molti studenti fanno così: «Marco ha detto che ha fame.» «Marco ha detto che aveva fame.» Perché è sbagliato il primo? Perché quando il verbo introduttore è al passato (ha detto, disse, diceva...), bisogna fare la cosiddetta «trasformazione dei tempi». È come se tutto «scivolasse indietro nel tempo»: il presente diventa imperfetto, il passato prossimo diventa trapassato prossimo, e così via. Tabella: Trasformazione dei Tempi Verbali Discorso DirettoD. Indiretto (verbo al presente)D. Indiretto (verbo al passato)Presente«Studio italiano.»«Dice che studia italiano.»→ Imperfetto«Ha detto che studiava italiano.»Passato prossimo«Ho studiato.»«Dice che ha studiato.»→ Trapassato prossimo«Ha detto che aveva studiato.»Futuro semplice«Studierò domani.»«Dice che studierà domani.»→ Condizionale passato«Ha detto che avrebbe studiato il giorno dopo.»Futuro anteriore«Avrò finito per le 3.»«Dice che avrà finito per le 3.»→ Condizionale passato«Ha detto che avrebbe finito per le 3.»Imperfetto«Studiavo ogni sera.»«Dice che studiava ogni sera.»→ Imperfetto (non cambia!)«Ha detto che studiava ogni sera.»Condizionale presente«Studierei di più.»«Dice che studierebbe di più.»→ Condizionale passato«Ha detto che avrebbe studiato di più.»Congiuntivo presente«Credo che studi.»«Dice che crede che studi.»→ Congiuntivo imperfetto«Ha detto che credeva che studiasse.»Congiuntivo passato«Credo che abbia studiato.»«Dice che crede che abbia studiato.»→ Congiuntivo trapassato«Ha detto che credeva che avesse studiato.» Nota una cosa molto importante: l'imperfetto è l'unico tempo che non cambia. Resta uguale sia con il verbo introduttore al presente sia al passato. È una delle poche eccezioni che semplificano le cose. E nota anche un'altra cosa fondamentale: quando il verbo introduttore è al presente (dice che, racconta che...), non devi fare nessuna trasformazione dei tempi. La trasformazione si applica solo quando il verbo è al passato. Curiosità sull'Italiano Parlato Nell'italiano parlato, soprattutto nel linguaggio informale, molti italiani non rispettano sempre queste regole. Capita spesso di sentire «Ha detto che viene domani» al posto di «Ha detto che sarebbe venuto il giorno dopo.» Tuttavia, se vuoi parlare un italiano corretto, è consigliabile seguire la tabella. Errore 2: Non Usare DI + Infinito Un altro errore frequente riguarda la struttura della frase. Osserva queste due versioni di «Marco dice: "Vado al cinema."»: «Marco dice che lui va al cinema.» — grammaticalmente corretto, ma pesante «Marco dice di andare al cinema.» — molto più naturale! Quando il soggetto della frase principale è lo stesso della frase secondaria, in italiano si preferisce usare la struttura DI + infinito. Il motivo è che suona molto più naturale e meno ripetitivo. Anziché dire «Marco dice che lui va al cinema» ripetendo il soggetto, è più elegante e scorrevole dire «Marco dice di andare al cinema». Tabella: CHE + Indicativo vs DI + Infinito Soggetto diverso → CHE + verbo coniugatoStesso soggetto → DI + infinito«Marco dice che Maria va al cinema.»«Marco dice di andare al cinema.»«Luca ha detto che Giulia era stanca.»«Luca ha detto di essere stanco.»«Anna dice che Paolo ha ragione.»«Anna dice di avere ragione.»«Il prof ha detto che gli studenti devono studiare.»«Il prof ha detto di dover studiare.» (ambiguo!) Osserva l'ultimo esempio: «Il prof ha detto di dover studiare» è un po' ambiguo, perché potrebbe sembrare che sia il professore a dover studiare. In casi come questo, dove il significato potrebbe non essere chiaro, è meglio usare la forma completa con CHE: «Il prof ha detto che gli studenti devono studiare.» Attenzione: Infinito Presente e Passato Quando usi DI + infinito con il verbo introduttore al passato, l'infinito può essere presente o passato. Se l'azione riportata è anteriore rispetto al momento in cui è stata detta, usa l'infinito passato: «Marco ha detto di aver studiato tutta la notte.» Curiosità sull'Uso di DI + Infinito In realtà, l'uso di DI + infinito non è obbligatorio, ma è fortemente preferito dai madrelingua. Se dici «Marco dice che lui va al cinema», gli italiani ti capiranno, ma la frase risulterà poco naturale. Errore 3: Dimenticare il Congiuntivo per Riportare Domande Questo è un errore molto diffuso, comune anche tra i madrelingua. Quando riporti una domanda in modo indiretto, è necessario usare il congiuntivo. Vediamo perché: Domanda diretta: «Vieni alla festa?» «Mi ha chiesto se vengo alla festa.» «Mi ha chiesto se venissi alla festa.» Dopo espressioni come chiede se / ha chiesto se / voleva sapere se, il verbo che segue deve essere al congiuntivo (quando il verbo introduttore è al passato). Questo vale sia per le domande con risposta sì/no, sia per le domande aperte con parole interrogative come dove, quando, come, perché, eccetera. Un'altra cosa importante da ricordare: nel passaggio dal discorso diretto a quello indiretto, il punto interrogativo sparisce, perché non stai più facendo una domanda, ma stai riferendo che qualcuno ha fatto una domanda. Tabella: Come Riportare le Domande Domanda direttaVerbo al presenteVerbo al passato«Parli italiano?»«Chiede se parlo italiano.»«Ha chiesto se parlassi italiano.»«Sei andato al cinema?»«Chiede se sono andato al cinema.»«Ha chiesto se fossi andato al cinema.»«Dove abiti?»«Chiede dove abito.»«Ha chiesto dove abitassi.»«Quando arriverai?»«Chiede quando arriverò.»«Ha chiesto quando sarei arrivato/a.»«Che cosa hai fatto?»«Chiede che cosa ho fatto.»«Ha chiesto che cosa avessi fatto.» Come vedi, le parole interrogative (dove, quando, che cosa...) si mantengono anche nel discorso indiretto. L'unica differenza è che le domande con risposta sì/no vengono introdotte dalla parola SE: «Vieni alla festa?» → «Ha chiesto se venissi alla festa.» Nota anche che, come per l'Errore 1, quando il verbo introduttore è al presente (chiede se...), non c'è bisogno del congiuntivo: si usa normalmente l'indicativo. Il congiuntivo entra in gioco quando il verbo è al passato (ha chiesto se...). Hai notato la quarta riga della tabella? «Quando arriverai» non diventa congiuntivo, ma condizionale passato (sarei arrivato). Questo perché il futuro segue sempre la stessa regola che abbiamo visto nell'Errore 1: futuro → condizionale passato, sia nelle affermazioni sia nelle domande. Curiosità sull'Italiano Informale Nella lingua parlata informale, molti italiani usano l'indicativo anche dopo «ha chiesto se». Capita spesso di sentire «Mi ha chiesto se venivo». Non è scorretto in senso assoluto, ma il congiuntivo resta la forma più corretta e adatta a un registro curato. Errore 4: Non Usare il Congiuntivo per Riportare Ordini Come si riportano gli ordini o le richieste in modo indiretto? Anche in questo caso entra in gioco il congiuntivo. Ordine diretto: «Studia di più!» «Il professore ha detto che studio di più.» «Il professore ha detto che io studi di più.»; «Il professore mi ha detto di studiare di più.» Come puoi notare, per riportare ordini, richieste o consigli hai due possibilità: puoi usare CHE + congiuntivo oppure DI + infinito. Entrambe le forme sono corrette, ma hanno usi leggermente diversi. Tabella: Come Riportare Ordini e Richieste Ordine direttoCHE + congiuntivoDI + infinito«Studia di più!»«Ha detto che io studiassi di più.»«Mi ha detto di studiare di più.»«Non fumare!»«Ha detto che io non fumassi.»«Mi ha detto di non fumare.»«Venite subito!»«Ha detto che noi andassimo subito.»«Ci ha detto di andare subito.»«Sii gentile!»«Ha detto che io fossi gentile.»«Mi ha detto di essere gentile.» Nota che nella terza riga «venite» è diventato «andassimo» / «andare». Nel discorso indiretto, anche i verbi di movimento cambiano prospettiva: venire (verso chi parla) diventa andare (lontano da chi parla), proprio come «qui» diventa «lì». Si tratta di un cambiamento di punto di vista. DI + Infinito vs CHE + Congiuntivo nella Vita Quotidiana Nella vita di tutti i giorni, la forma con DI + infinito è di gran lunga la più usata perché è più semplice e diretta. La forma con CHE + congiuntivo è più formale e la troverai soprattutto nella lingua scritta o in contesti ufficiali. È comunque importante conoscerle entrambe per scegliere quella giusta a seconda della situazione. Attenzione alla Negazione Con la negazione, fai molta attenzione all'ordine delle parole. Il «non» va dopo «di» e prima dell'infinito: «Mi ha detto di non fumare.» L'errore tipico è dire «Mi ha detto non di fumare», che in italiano suona completamente sbagliato. Errore 5: Non Fare le Altre Trasformazioni A questo punto hai imparato a cambiare i tempi verbali, a usare DI + infinito, il congiuntivo per domande e ordini... ma manca ancora un pezzo importante. Nel discorso indiretto non cambiano solo i verbi: cambiano anche i prono
In an episode that is both unconventional and textbook for The Fear of God, we continue our examination of societal and individual deterioration by exploring Francis Ford Coppola's landmark 1979 film APOCALYPSE NOW (specifically, the version known as THE FINAL CUT).Apocalypse Now was loosely based on Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad and set in the Vietnam war. It tells the story of a mercenary soldier (Martin Sheen) who is tasked to travel deep into the heart of Cambodia to find and assassinate the rogue Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando). Along the way he encounters a parade of human experiences, from bloodthirsty militarists (Robert Duvall) and French expats to civilian casualties and an extravagant USO show. He will also inevitably confront the landscape of his own soul and be forced to face how shattered it has become through the addictive torment of war.We're joined by Father Josh Bowron to dig into the cinematic, spiritual, and cultural aspects of Coppola's astonishing film. We unpack the different ways our addictions to combat manifest; and we directly tackle the distortions that politics and power can create for the perspective of the Christian faith. It's one of our more bold and robust conversations, but also thoughtful and vulnerable. We really hope you'll join us and we hope you enjoy it.Patron Only Segment: Stump Reed3:56 - APOCALYPSE NOWSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This episode I am reading from Richard Dolan's book 'A History of USOs, Unidentified Submerged Objects: Volume 2: From 1970 to 1989' Unidentified Submerged Objects have long existed on the margins of UAP/UFO research, mentioned in passing, rarely examined in depth, and often set aside in favor of aerial encounters. Yet the historical record tells a different story. Reports of anomalous craft operating within Earth's oceans, lakes, and rivers are widespread, persistent, and in many cases difficult to dismiss. In this second volume of A History of USOs, historian Richard Dolan presents a detailed investigation of global cases from 1970 to 1989, a period marked by a noticeable rise in both the frequency and intensity of encounters. Drawing from military reports, civilian testimony, and archival research, the book assembles a body of evidence that spans continents and political systems, including repeated interactions involving both U.S. and Soviet naval forces. The events themselves are often striking in their specifics. Large objects moving beneath the surface without detectable propulsion. Craft emerging from the water and ascending into the air with controlled acceleration. Close encounters near shorelines, in open ocean, and in inland waterways, sometimes accompanied by equipment disruption, physiological effects, or gaps in perceived time. Many of these incidents involve trained observers operating in environments where misidentification carries consequences. The pattern that emerges is not confined to a single region or era. It appears across decades, across cultures, and across very different observational contexts. During the Cold War years in particular, increased human presence in the oceans, along with advances in sonar, surveillance, and submarine technology, brought more of these encounters into view. Even so, the capabilities described in these cases remain outside any publicly acknowledged technological framework. This volume places those encounters within their historical setting while examining the broader implications of a sustained, largely unacknowledged presence in the world's waters. It considers the possibility that these objects are not random intrusions, but part of an ongoing pattern of activity whose purpose remains unclear. The oceans cover most of this planet. Large portions of them remain unexplored. Whatever operates within them has had ample space to remain out of sight Bio For over twenty years, Richard Dolan has been one of the best known UFO researchers in the world. He is the author of several groundbreaking books in the field, opening up fresh ways of understanding this perplexing subject. His massive two-volume history, UFOs and the National Security State, has permanently altered our understanding of the history of UFOs and the government coverup. He is co-author of the classic book, “A.D. After Disclosure,” which opened up an entire conversation on how UFO Disclosure could actually take place and what that might mean for the world. His book “UFOs for the 21st Century Mind” remains the best single volume to discuss the full range of the UFO subject in all its complexity. His most recent book, “The Alien Agendas,” is another unique contribution to the subject, being one of the few attempts to analyze the beings behind the UFO phenomenon by examining the long history of our encounters with them. Aside from being one of ufology's most engaging writers, Richard has been in front of the camera and microphone for many years, and has spoken to audiences around the world. These days, Richard continues working on book projects while managing an active website, https://richarddolanmembers.com, which features fresh writing, video, and audio content by Richard every week. https://richarddolanmembers.com/ https://www.amazon.com/History-USOs-Unidentified-Submerged-Objects-ebook/dp/B0H1JTZ1GR https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcasthttps://simonbown.com/My new book, Aspects of Alien Abduction https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_ufo Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul. I am delighted to welcome this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, Comedian Jeff Nease. Listeners know that in addition to my passion for cruising, I am passionate about music and stand-up comedy. Accordingly, on The Joy of Cruising Podcast I love hosting performers from cruise ships, and Jeff has headlined on virtually every major cruise line, so I am excited to have a conversation with him. ‘Hilarious!' (Entertainment Today Magazine), “A high energy performer able to generate BIG laughs!” (Las Vegas Review Journal) and The Detroit Free Press simply declares “Jeff Nease makes us laugh!”. Observational, Conversational and often, Standing Ovational, Jeff Nease is there whenever ‘You Need Funny!' Jeff began his career in 1987. The performing ‘bug' bit while studying film and theater at the University of Toledo. Propelled by his love of the comedy albums of George Carlin, Steve Martin, Bill Cosby and Bob Newhart, it wasn't long before he found himself stepping on the stage of the local comedy venue ‘The Toledo Comedy Club'. He began to hone his craft anywhere he could find an audience: nightclubs, rock bars, colleges and lounges in and around his hometown in Northwest Ohio and Detroit, Michigan. Jeff applied his theater training as a founding member of the improvisational group ‘The Improvables'. This experience helped form the spontaneous element his show is known for. Jeff soon began touring comedy clubs and theaters in both the United States and Canada. New York to L.A., Vancouver to Nova Scotia. He became a finalist in the National Lampoon Laugh-Off, was seen on Television (A&E, PBS and Comedy Central) and opened up concerts for musical icons The Temptations and jazz great Najee. He also opened up for comedy stars Jim Carrey, Tim Allen and Ellen DeGeneres. Jeff also ventured out to sea. Today Jeff is currently one of the most sought-after comedians for the world's most popular cruise lines such as Royal Caribbean. He has performed around the world on vessels for Azamara, Celebrity Cruises, Cunard, Crystal Cruises, Holland America, Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruise Line, Regent Cruise Line, among others. Las Vegas became home for 14 years. Jeff performed at such iconic venues as The Riviera, MGM Grand, Tropicana, the Stardust, Rio and more. In addition to his nightclub work, Jeff performed for many of the various conventions and special events such as NAB (National Association of Broadcasters), COMDEX and CES (The Consumer Electronics Show). His corporate clients include Allstate, Taco Bell, The Royal Bank of Canada, USANA and Cannon. He is exceptionally proud to be accepted on the roster of performers for the USO. Today Jeff tours continually around the world. His greatest pride come from his three sons Jeffrey Jr., Patrick and Theodore.Do you have a dream car?

** NOTE: There is an occasional echo with Tim's audio that was only caught in postproduction, but the echo is mostly toward the end. I had it worked on for several hours, and improved it as much as possible. ~ Former Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet returns to Podcast UFO for an in-depth discussion of UAP, USO, ocean mysteries, government transparency, and the search for answers. Gallaudet clarifies his role on the newly formed UAP Science Advisory Council reporting to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, alongside Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb. He discusses the council's effort to obtain and analyze Pentagon UAP data, including reports involving possible anomalous objects detected by U.S. submarines. The conversation focuses heavily on undersea anomalies. Gallaudet describes reported encounters in which submarine crews detected objects moving at extraordinary speeds underwater, including one alleged sonar contact recorded at 80 knots. He explains why the oceans, much of which remain poorly explored, may be a logical place for elusive phenomena to operate beyond public observation. We also discuss metallic sphere reports, unreleased military video, the need for rigorous scientific study, artificial intelligence in UAP research, compartmentalization within government programs, and whether the public is finally moving closer to meaningful disclosure. Tim also talks about his new book, *Holding Fast in Heavy Seas*, a leadership memoir reflecting on his Navy career and his time leading NOAA through difficult political and scientific challenges. Could UAP represent advanced adversary technology, unknown engineering, or something genuinely non-human? Tim Gallaudet explains why either possibility deserves serious attention.**PLEASE NOTE: There is an occasional echo with Tim's audio that was not caught in production, but mostly toward the end.

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz delivers a deep breakdown of Toby Keith's iconic patriotic anthem “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American).”Analytic Dreamz examines the song's origins, written in just 20 minutes in late 2001 after the 9/11 attacks and the death of Keith's father, a Korean War veteran. Originally created for USO tours and military audiences, the track gained massive traction after Marines embraced it, leading to its commercial release in May 2002.The episode covers its chart dominance — No. 1 on Billboard Hot Country Songs, No. 25 on the Hot 100 — and enduring legacy, now 5× Platinum with over 342 million Spotify streams. Analytic Dreamz also explores its 2024–2026 revival following Keith's passing, viral moments, remixes, and its surge to No. 1 most-streamed song on Spotify U.S. during the 2026 Independence Day celebrations for America's 250th birthday.This segment unpacks the cultural impact, military connection, and why the song remains one of country music's most powerful and debated anthems more than two decades later.

What About an Arc de Healthcare? Trump's Destruction of Our Shared Symbols is an Attack on All of Us. World Cup Joy, Living in the New South, Friendly, Helpful Neighbors and Driving Across America. Henry Rollins doesn't do small talk. The punk icon, author, USO road dog, and longtime friend of the show returns from Nashville to deliver one of the most blistering hours we've recorded this year. He keeps dragging the conversation back to the number no cable network wants to sit with: 13 dead American service members, and countless wounded, from a war in Iran the president picked and can't justify. Rollins walks through what a USO trip actually sounds like — young troops telling him the mission is simply "get to D-FAC" — and asks the only question that matters from the resolute desk: how do I get every one of them home? From there it's a wide-open briefing on the state of the republic. Rollins on Tennessee's generational shift and the independents rising inside a red state. Rollins on Operation Ajax, the JCPOA, and why no previous president pulled this trigger. Rollins on a White House that paved over Jackie Kennedy's rose garden, demolished the East Wing, and put MMA behind a paywall on the people's lawn. And Rollins on what's still good — neighbors who shovel each other out, strangers who change your tire in the rain, and a country whose arc, even now, still bends toward better. If you're in the angry middle, this one will hit a nerve and put some fight back in you. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.
