Erika Lucas spent years inside private equity and venture capital, the rooms that decide who gets funded in America. Then she left to build what goes around them. In this episode, she tells Saadia Khan exactly what investors say about founders once they've walked out. Erika was born in Chihuahua, Mexico, and came to rural Oklahoma at 13 with her mother and sister, speaking no English. She went back. She built a career in Mexico, returned to the U.S., ran foreign direct investment for the State of Oklahoma, became a private equity partner—and then walked away to co-found StitchCrew, which has brought capital and networks to hundreds of founders the system overlooks. She also founded VEST, a peer network for women professionals, and VEST Her Ventures, a fund backing women-led companies in the care economy. Her TEDx talk, America's Trillion Dollar Blindspot, argues the money in this country is pointed the wrong way. She and Saadia get into the part most founder conversations skip: not how to pitch better, but who is on the other side of the table and why they keep writing checks to people who look like them. Erika's advice to founders is not what you'd expect from a former VC; she'd rather talk you out of raising venture at all.

First up on the podcast, ScienceInsider Editor Jocelyn Kaiser joins host Sarah Crespi for the latest science policy news. The two discuss recent grant cancellations by the U.S. National Institutes of Health and the likelihood that the agency will spend its budget by the end of its fiscal year on 30 September. Next on the show, crew aboard spacecraft that enter deep space are likely to be exposed to a radiation source we don't often encounter on Earth's surface: high-speed protons coming from solar storms or cosmic rays. So to protect astronauts, researchers are using plastics to defend against this dangerous form of radiation. Jordan Houri, lead scientist for space exploration at StemRad, talks about testing the protective capabilities of specially designed vests aboard NASA's Artemis I mission.

San Ignacio de Loyola Lc 14,25-33 14,25 Junto con Jesús iba un gran gentío, y él, dándose vuelta, les dijo: 14,26 «Cualquiera que venga a mí y no me ame más que a su padre y a su madre, a su mujer y a sus hijos, a sus hermanos y hermanas, y hasta a su propia vida, no puede ser mi discípulo. 14,27 El que no carga con su cruz y me sigue, no puede ser mi discípulo. 14,28 ¿Quién de ustedes, si quiere edificar una torre, no se sienta primero a calcular los gastos, para ver si tiene con qué terminarla? 14,29 No sea que una vez puestos los cimientos, no pueda acabar y todos los que lo vean se rían de él, diciendo: 14,30 'Este comenzó a edificar y no pudo terminar'. 14,31 ¿Y qué rey, cuando sale en campaña contra otro, no se sienta antes a considerar si con diez mil hombres puede enfrentar al que viene contra él con veinte mil? 14,32 Por el contrario, mientras el otro rey está todavía lejos, envía una embajada para negociar la paz. 14,33 De la misma manera, cualquiera de ustedes que no renuncie a todo lo que posee, no puede ser mi discípulo. «Todo para mayor Gloria de Dios» San Ignacio nació en 1491 en el castillo de Loyola, en Guipúzcoa, norte de España, cerca de los montes Pirineos que están en el límite con Francia. Su padre Bertrán De Loyola y su madre Marina Sáenz, de familias muy distinguidas, tuvieron once hijos: ocho varones y tres mujeres. El más joven de todos fue Ignacio. El nombre que le pusieron en el bautismo fue Iñigo. Entró a la carrera militar, pero en 1521, a la edad de 30 años, siendo ya capitán, fue gravemente herido mientras defendía el Castillo de Pamplona. Al ser herido su jefe, la guarnición del castillo capituló ante el ejército francés. Los vencedores lo enviaron a su Castillo de Loyola a que fuera tratado de su herida. Le hicieron tres operaciones en la rodilla, dolorosísimas, y sin anestesia; pero no permitió que lo atasen ni que nadie lo sostuviera. Durante las operaciones no prorrumpió ni una queja. Los médicos se admiraban. Para que la pierna operada no le quedara más corta le amarraron unas pesas al pie y así estuvo por semanas con el pie en alto, soportando semejante peso. Sin embargo quedó cojo para toda la vida. A pesar de esto Ignacio tuvo durante toda su vida un modo muy elegante y fino para tratar a toda clase de personas. Lo había aprendido en la Corte en su niñez. Mientras estaba en convalecencia pidió que le llevaran novelas de caballería, llenas de narraciones inventadas e imaginarias. Pero su hermana le dijo que no tenía más libros que «La vida de Cristo» y el «Año Cristiano», o sea la historia del santo de cada día. Y le sucedió un caso muy especial. Antes, mientras leía novelas y narraciones inventadas, en el momento sentía satisfacción pero después quedaba con un sentimiento horrible de tristeza y frustración. En cambio ahora al leer la vida de Cristo y las Vidas de los santos sentía una alegría inmensa que le duraba por días y días. Esto lo fue impresionando profundamente. Y mientras leía las historias de los grandes santos pensaba: «¿Y por qué no tratar de imitarlos? Si ellos pudieron llegar a ese grado de espiritualidad, ¿por qué no lo voy a lograr yo? ¿Por qué no tratar de ser como San Francisco, Santo Domingo, etc.? Estos hombres estaban hechos del mismo barro que yo. ¿Por qué no esforzarme por llegar al grado que ellos alcanzaron?». Y después se iba a cumplir en él aquello que decía Jesús: «Dichosos los que tienen un gran deseo de ser santos, porque su deseo se cumplirá» (Mt. 5,6), y aquella sentencia de los psicólogos: «Cuidado con lo que deseas, porque lo conseguirás». Mientras se proponía seriamente convertirse, una noche se le apareció Nuestra Señora con su Hijo Santísimo. La visión lo consoló inmensamente. Desde entonces se propuso no dedicarse a servir a gobernantes de la tierra sino al Rey del cielo. Apenas terminó su convalecencia se fue en peregrinación al famoso Santuario de la Virgen de Monserrat. Allí tomó el serio propósito de dedicarse a hacer penitencia por sus pecados. Cambió sus lujosos vestidos por los de un pordiosero, se consagró a la Virgen Santísima e hizo confesión general de toda su vida. Y se fue a un pueblecito llamado Manresa, a 15 kilómetros de Monserrat a orar y hacer penitencia, allí estuvo un año. Cerca de Manresa había una cueva y en ella se encerraba a dedicarse a la oración y a la meditación. Allá se le ocurrió la idea de los Ejercicios Espiritales, que tanto bien iban a hacer a la humanidad. Después de unos días en los cuales sentía mucho gozo y consuelo en la oración, empezó a sentir aburrimiento y cansancio por todo lo que fuera espiritual. A esta crisis de desgano la llaman los sabios "la noche oscura del alma". Es un estado dificultoso que cada uno tiene que pasar para que se convenza de que los consuelos que siente en la oración no se los merece, sino que son un regalo gratuito de Dios. Luego le llegó otra enfermedad espiritual muy fastidiosa: los escrúpulos. O sea el imaginarse que todo es pecado. Esto casi lo lleva a la desesperación. Pero iba anotando lo que le sucedía y lo que sentía y estos datos le proporcionaron después mucha habildad para poder dirigir espiritualmente a otros convertidos y según sus propias experiencias poderles enseñar el camino de la santidad. Allí orando en Manresa adquirió lo que se llama "Discreción de espíritus", que consiste en saber determinar qué es lo que le sucede a cada alma y cuáles son los consejos que más necesita, y saber distinguir lo bueno de lo malo. A un amigo suyo le decía después: "En una hora de oración en Manresa aprendí más a dirigir almas, que todo lo que hubiera podido aprender asistiendo a universidades". En 1523 se fue en peregrinación a Jerusalén, pidiendo limosna por el camino. Todavía era muy impulsivo y un día casi ataca a espada a uno que hablaba mal de la religión. Por eso le aconsejaron que no se quedara en Tierra Santa donde había muchos enemigos del catolicismo. Después fue adquiriendo gran bondad y paciencia. A los 33 años empezó como estudiante de colegio en Barcelona, España. Sus compañeros de estudio eran mucho más jóvenes que él y se burlaban mucho. El toleraba todo con admirable paciencia. De todo lo que estudiaba tomaba pretexto para elevar su alma a Dios y adorarlo. Después pasó a la Universidad de Alcalá. Vestía muy pobremente y vivía de limosna. Reunía niños para enseñarles religión; hacía reuniones de gente sencilla para tratar temas de espiritualidad, y convertía pecadores hablandoles amablemente de lo importante que es salvar el alma. Lo acusaron injustamente ante la autoridad religiosa y estuvo dos meses en la cárcel. Después lo declararon inocente, pero había gente que lo perseguía. El consideraba todos estos sufrimientos como un medio que Dios le proporcionaba para que fuera pagando sus pecados. Y exclamaba: "No hay en la ciudad tantas cárceles ni tantos tormentos como los que yo deseo sufrir por amor a Jesucristo". Se fue a Paris a estudiar en su famosa Universidad de La Sorbona. Allá formó un grupo con seis compañeros que se han hecho famosos porque con ellos fundó la Compañía de Jesús. Ellos son: Pedro Fabro, Francisco Javier, Laínez, Salnerón, Simón Rodríguez y Nicolás Bobadilla. Recibieron doctorado en aquella universidad y daban muy buen ejemplo a todos. Los siete hicieron votos o juramentos de ser puros, obedientes y pobres, el día 15 de Agosto de 1534, fiesta de la Asunción de María. Se comprometieron a estar siempre a las órdenes del Sumo Pontífice para que él los emplease en lo que mejor le pareciera para la gloria de Dios. Se fueron a Roma y el Papa Pablo III les recibió muy bien y les dio permiso de ser ordenados sacerdotes. Ignacio, que se había cambiado por ese nombre su nombre antiguo de Íñigo, esperó un año desde el día de su ordenación hasta el día de la celebración de su primera misa, para prepararse lo mejor posible a celebrarla con todo fervor. San Ignacio de Loyola se dedicó en Roma a predicar Ejercicios Espirituales y a catequizar al pueblo. Sus compañeros se dedicaron a dictar clases en universidades y colegios y a dar conferencias espirituales a toda clase de personas. Se propusieron como principal oficio enseñar la religión a la gente. En 1540 el Papa Pablo III aprobó su comunidad llamada "Compañía de Jesús" o "Jesuitas". El Superior General de la nueva comunidad fue San Ignacio hasta su muerte. En Roma pasó todo el resto de su vida. Era tanto el deseo que tenía de salvar almas que exclamaba: "Estaría dispuesto a perder todo lo que tengo, y hasta que se acabara mi comunidad, con tal de salvar el alma de un pecador". Fundó casas de su congregación en España y Portugal. Envió a San Francisco Javier a evangelizar el Asia. De los jesuitas que envió a Inglaterra, 22 murieron martirizados por los protestantes. Sus dos grandes amigos Laínez y Salmerón fueron famosos sabios que dirigieron el Concilio de Trento. A San Pedro Canisio lo envió a Alemania y este santo llegó a ser el más célebre catequista de aquél país. Recibió como religioso jesuita a San Francisco de Borja que era rico político, gobernador, en España. San Ignacio escribió más de 6 mil cartas dando consejos espirituales. El Colegio que San Ignacio fundó en Roma llegó a ser modelo en el cual se inspiraron muchísimos colegios más y ahora se ha convertido en la célebre Universidad Gregoriana. Los jesuitas fundados por San Ignacio llegaron a ser los más sabios adversarios de los protestantes y combatieron y detuvieron en todas partes al protestantismo. Les recomendaba que tuvieran mansedumbre y gran respeto hacia el adversario pero que se presentaran muy instruidos para combatirlos. El deseaba que el apóstol católico fuera muy instruido. El libro más famoso de San Ignacio de Loyola se titula: «Ejercicios Espirituales» y es lo mejor que se ha escrito acerca de como hacer bien los santos ejercicios. En todo el mundo es leído y practicado este maravilloso libro. Duró 15 años escribiéndolo. Su lema era: "Todo para mayor gloria de Dios". Y a ello dirigía todas sus acciones, palabras y pensamientos: A que Dios fuera más conocido, más amado y mejor obedecido. En los 15 años que San Ignacio de Loyola dirigió a la Compañía de Jesús, esta pasó de siete socios a más de mil. A todos y cada uno trataba de formarlos muy bien espiritualmente. Como casi cada año se enfermaba y después volvía a obtener la curación, cuando le vino la última enfermedad nadie se imaginó que se iba a morir, y murió subitamente el 31 de julio de 1556 a la edad de 65 años. En 1622 el Papa lo declaró Santo y después Pío XI lo declaró Patrono de los Ejercicios Espirituales en todo el mundo. Su comunidad de Jesuitas es la más numerosa en la Iglesia Católica.

Should I wear a weight vest?

In episode 294 of the Fit Father Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with Brent Yates, founder of AION, to break down the real science behind weighted vest training — and why adding load, compression, and heat to your daily walks and workouts could be one of the smartest longevity moves a man over 40 can make. Dr. Anthony speaks from personal experience, having worn the AION vest daily on his morning walks with his dog Luna and during bodyweight training sessions, noticing more calorie burn, more sweat, and a genuine upgrade in workout quality without changing anything else.Brent's story is compelling on its own. At 60, he was competing professionally in long drive golf contests when he tore his supraspinatus, underwent surgery, and watched 15 pounds of hard-earned muscle disappear while 15 pounds of belly fat took its place. Frustrated by every weighted vest on the market — all of which hurt his body or compromised his movement — he built his own. What emerged was a patented three-in-one system: compression for blood flow and recovery, thermogenic heat trapping for calorie burn, and fractional load distributed across nearly 45% of the body.The data backs it up. AION's research shows the vest gets you into Zone 2 cardio 50% faster than wearing a t-shirt, with 20% higher heart rates and 18% more calories burned during the same workout. Brent also shares his mindset framework for comeback after injury — a powerful message for any man over 40 who feels like he's starting over physically. If you want to do more with less, train smarter as you age, and build a tool into your daily life that keeps working even when you're walking the dog or playing pickleball, this episode delivers.Rate & Review – If this episode helped you think differently about how you train and recover after 40, please take a minute to rate and review the Fit Father Project Podcast.

Politica actuală se mișcă mult mai repede decât algoritmul oricărui feed de știri, iar dacă nu urmărești atent fiecare mutare de pe scenă, riști să pierzi definitiv contextul marilor decizii. În acest nou episod, ne propunem să privim dincolo de declarațiile oficiale și să analizăm ce se întâmplă, de fapt, în culisele tensionate ale negocierilor de culise. Pe măsură ce alianțele tradiționale se destramă sub presiunea orgoliilor, opțiunea unei guvernări minoritare pare să devină o realitate din ce în ce mai probabilă pentru lunile următoare. Nu ne interesează deloc scandalul steril sau declarațiile zgomotoase de la televizor, ci ne concentrăm exclusiv pe mecanismele subtile de putere care schimbă regulile jocului politic în timp real. Această abordare este esențială, deoarece compromisurile făcute acum în spatele ușilor închise ne vor afecta direct viața de zi cu zi și buzunarele, indiferent dacă alegem sau nu să deschidem televizorul. Într-un peisaj atât de fluid și imprevizibil, simplul rol de spectator pasiv nu mai este o opțiune viabilă pentru o societate care își dorește stabilitate economică. În fața tuturor acestor culise și strategii de supraviețuire parlamentară, tu cum vezi viitorul pe termen lung și cine crezi că va deține, de fapt, controlul? IGDLCC înseamnă Informații Gratis despre Lucruri care Costă! Totul ne costă dar mai ales timpul așa că am făcut această serie pentru a mă informa și educa alături de invitați din domeniile mele de interes. Te invit alături de mine în această călătorie. Mi-am propus să mă facă mai informat și mai adaptat la schimbările care vin. Sper să o facă și pentru tine.

Hello Interactors,Welcome to summer where Interplace turns its attention to physical geography and the environment. It's already a crazy El Niño — thanks in large part to global warming — and the United States is having a big birthday. How might these be related and what to do about it?What follows is not a celebration or a condemnation, but more of a reckoning. I look at what was built, what was deliberately forgotten, and what is now continually arriving, season by season, in forms of weather the founders could not have imagined.Although Alexander Humboldt — one of the world's most famous scientists at the time — did warn Jefferson of the effects of human-induced climate change in 1804. He based his prediction on changes he observed in forests and water systems as a result of mono-crops and industrial “steam and gas”. Jefferson ignored him.BUILDING, BURNING, BILLOWING BACKOn this momentous 250th Fourth of July, when the world is experiencing record level extreme weather events, let's reflect on how over the last 250 years the United States helped build, extract, and then burn the material and political conditions that made climate change possible. From the beginning, it tied itself to land, extraction, mobility, and expansion. Over time those commitments became an energy system built on coal, oil, gas, highways, suburbs, industrial agriculture, and a development model that treated nature as an inexhaustible storehouse. That legacy is now legible in the atmosphere itself. Let's light a Roman Candle in celebration!Even before the 4th of July fireworks celebrations create another nationwide 42% average increase in fine particulate matter (Seidel, et al., 2015), the United States bears the single largest share of cumulative historical CO₂ emissions of any nation . We represent roughly 20 percent of the global total since 1850 contributing approximately 0.2°C of warming to date (Carbon Brief, 2021; UNEP, 2023). To represent four percent of the world's current population and be responsible for nearly a fifth of its cumulative warming is not a coincidence of geography or fake news. It is the outcome of deliberate choices about how a republic would be organized, energized, and expanded across two and a half centuries.The United States has long imagined freedom in spatial terms: movement, property, settlement, mastery, frontier, and circulation. Those abstract ideals were made real through land theft and remade landscapes, as well as through infrastructure built in significant part by African and African American enslaved labor. Each step along the way depended on ever-greater throughput of energy, labor, and material. In that sense, the country's history is also a history of how thought became organized around extraction and exploitation, until those thoughts and actions themselves became a kind of common sense. But by the late nineteenth century and early twentieth centuries increased industrialization meant emissions grew. They surged during the postwar era and peaked in the early 2000s — a trajectory that maps almost exactly onto the spatial project of suburban expansion, highway construction, and fossil-fuel-dependent agriculture (Climate Change Tracker, 2024). Two-thirds of the country's cumulative warming impact derives from fossil CO₂ alone. The built environment of American freedom is as inseparable from the chemical footprint it left behind as a firecracker's scattered debris and carbon residue.This leaves us with a climate crisis that is not just the result of a few bad policy choices in the late twentieth century. We exist in a cumulative outcome of a long national project that normalized combustion as prosperity and treated atmospheric consequence as some distant abstraction. Kind of like turning up the radio to drowned out the sound of your car making a funny noise. The federal state government played a central role in this process. Not only through direct policy and subsidies, but through the development of roads, ports, power systems, agricultural regimes, and military logistics that expanded the scale of fossil dependence at every scale of national life.The fossil fuel industry understood this trajectory earlier than the public was permitted to know. A systematic analysis published in Science found that ExxonMobil's own scientists accurately projected and skillfully modeled global warming due to fossil fuel burning from as early as 1977. These projections are consistent with subsequent observations. And yet, for decades, the company publicly pushed doubt and denial (Supran, Rahmstorf, & Oreskes, 2023). Consequently, what America projects as “economic growth”, fueled enormously by the fossil fuel industry, is embedded not only in a collective national memory but in the scientific record.The irony is that America's confidence in its own permanence rested on a false sense of geography. The landscape seemed stable because the costs were displaced in the form of upstream mining, downstream pollution, hidden emissions, imported and exported harm, and deferred climate effects. The effects on the atmosphere made that displacement impossible to sustain. The ‘progress' that had been scattered across space and time returns as heat, drought, fire, flood, and increasingly volatile weather. We built a world in which the rewards of extraction were immediate while the penalties were delayed. Call it what you will — the climate crisis is just the debt of delay, dressed as disaster.KNOWING, NEGLECTING, NEUTERING KNOWLEDGEThe USA did not simply keep burning and expanding on autopilot. By the late twentieth century, it had also begun to lose the institutional capacity to understand what its own trajectory meant. The problem was no longer that the 1970's scientific picture Exxon had already portrayed was absent. The evidence was clear. By the early 1990s the United States had ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and formally accepted the goal of returning greenhouse-gas emissions to 1990 levels by the end of the decade.The barrier to progress was not ignorance, but a degraded relationship between knowledge and power. This was engineered in part by more fossil fuel industry campaigns to sow doubt about science it privately accepted. Historians of science Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway documented how a loose-knit network of industry-connected scientists ran effective campaigns to mislead the public on issues from tobacco to climate change. They exploited the media's tendency toward false balance and keeping controversy alive long after scientific consensus had been reached (Oreskes & Conway, 2010). The strategy was to make certainty seem uncertain, and it worked. For decades, political inaction persisted through every window of action that may have helped.By the mid-1990s, climate change had become legible enough for federal institutions to name, study, and plan around, but the machinery of governance was being bent in the opposite direction. Newt Gingrich and the Republicans who rose with him may not have invented anti-government politics, but they weaponized it. Curiously, through pro-governmental politics. While their rhetoric promised efficiency and modernization, in practice it often meant cutting staffs, weakening committees, abolishing subcommittees, and treating the legislature less as a site of deliberation than as a theater of permanent combat. After all, their own staffers affectionately referred to Gingrich and his wrecking crew as ‘jihadists' — even as those same politicians promulgated and attached that term as a slur toward Muslims. One of the most consequential acts of this period was the 1995 defunding of the Office of Technology Assessment. This was a bipartisan, independent body that had produced over 750 reports on complex scientific and technical questions since 1974, including major studies on energy policy, environmental risk, and the long-range consequences of atmospheric change. Gingrich had vowed to kill the OTA during his 1994 election campaign. He kept his promise, and with it eliminated one of Congress's primary mechanisms for converting scientific knowledge into durable legislative capacity (Wikipedia, Office of Technology Assessment; AAAS Science, 2019).A legislature cannot respond intelligently to a long-range atmospheric crisis if it has stripped away the very mechanisms designed to synthesize evidence, test assumptions, and tackle complex questions over time. What replaced deliberations mediated by experts was a vacuum quickly filled by industry lobbyists — the same industry that, amongst themselves, knew exactly what Gingrich was doing. Research on institutional dynamics in climate governance consistently finds that fragmented policy, weak intergovernmental coordination, and the erosion of technical capacity are among the most significant barriers to effective long-range climate action (Jaisridhar et al., 2025; Birchall, Bonnett, & Kehler, 2023).The thinning of Congress's own cognitive infrastructure in 1995 was a bureaucratic adjustment that disabled the country's capacity to govern on topics beyond the timescales and dimensions of a single administration. The political system was becoming less capable of converting recognition into sustained action precisely as the need for that conversion became most urgent. The United States not only helped create the conditions for warming but undermined its own capacity to govern the effects warming created. The atmosphere was warming and so was the willful weakening of the world's most powerful potential partner in planetary protection.CASCADES, CRISES, AND COMING TO TERMSWhat follows is not simply a warmer world, but a less legible and actionable one. Once a political system weakens its own capacity to think long-term, it becomes ill-equipped to face a future that arrives not as a single rupture but as a cascade of self-reinforcing disruptions. We've all experienced or read about hotter summers, fire, more erratic rainfall, stressed coasts, shifting storm tracks, and weather that no longer behaves as the old seasonal calendar once did. Anthropogenic warming is already increasing variability in frequency and severity of weather systems. This in turn can alter local precipitation variability, storm behavior, and the climatic conditions on which seasonal expectations have long depended (Robinson, 2021; Wang et al., 2017; Scher & Messori, 2019). In several regions, climate change is expected not only to shift average conditions but to change seasonal predictability itself — especially for rainfall — making the future harder to read through the calendars and risk assumptions modeled and built from the past (Le et al., 2023; Delsole et al., 2014).Even now, the atmosphere offers a live demonstration of this instability. On June 11, 2026, NOAA officially declared that El Niño has arrived — with a 63 percent probability of reaching “very strong” intensity, defined as sea surface temperature anomalies of at least +2°C in the equatorial Pacific. This would rank it among the largest events in the historical record (NOAA, 2026). What makes 2026 categorically different from prior super events is not just its projected intensity but its baseline. This El Niño begins from the warmest ocean temperatures in human history, layered onto anthropogenic warming that has already pushed the planet to 1.55°C above preindustrial levels.As one paper argued in April, the El Niño is the accelerant; the fuel was already stacked (Hansen et al., 2026). The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has placed an 86 percent probability on at least one year between 2026 and 2030 surpassing 2024 as the warmest on record, with 2027 — when El Niño's thermal lag typically produces its most extreme global signals — as the most likely candidate (WMO, 2026).When that variability is layered onto long-term warming, the result is not just discomfort but a deeper erosion of climatic predictability. ENSO — the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, the coupled ocean-atmosphere system that drives El Niño's periodic warming and its counterpart La Niña's cooling across the tropical Pacific — is not a new phenomenon, but its behavior is changing. Model evidence indicates that ENSO-related rainfall variability is likely to intensify and shift eastward under greenhouse warming, creating more severe and sometimes novel climate conditions across the terrestrial tropics (Cai et al., 2021; Rifai, Li, & Malhi, 2019). The question is no longer whether the climate will change, but how many of the social and political structures built on climatic regularity can survive that change.Climate change is often presented as a technical or environmental problem to be solved. Especially amidst a culture of pervasive techno-optimism. But climate change is way more fundamental than this. It's a reordering of the relationship between how we need to think and the geography in which we exist. This includes political geography and a reordering of political imagination as it relates to physical geography. The old originally envisioned republic of the USA assumed that land could be mastered, seasons could be predicted, and institutions could absorb shock without losing coherence. Those assumptions no longer hold.The old assumption that infrastructure could be planned around stationary baselines is increasingly at odds with the evidence. We can already see how energy systems show measurable vulnerability to climatic uncertainty and extremes. Modeled systems evidence declines in reliability and large performance gaps when future weather variation is not adequately incorporated into planning (Perera et al., 2020; Ouyang et al., 2023).As a result, the challenge ahead is not adaptation to these changes in the narrow sense, but reconstruction of our relationship to them in the broad sense. This may seem impossible in today's American political system, but truly Democratic societies will need stronger scientific institutions, more durable legislative capacity, and trustworthy public agencies able to interpret risk before disaster becomes routine. They will need not only infrastructure, but intelligence. Embodied intelligence — embodied engagement with physical and social environments rather than as a purely singular-brain augmented by LLM computation. This includes a renewed ability to gather, preserve, and act on knowledge over long horizons.The literature on adaptation governance is clear that resilience depends on organizational learning, intergovernmental collaboration, inclusive planning, and long-term institutional capacity. Short-term, reactive, market or donor-driven interventions that respond to emergencies without building the durable frameworks that prevent them won't work (Birchall et al., 2026; Rahman & Islam, 2024). What this means practically is the reconstitution of the kind of congressional expertise that was dismantled in 1995. We need not merely revive the OTA but to imagine a broader democratic intelligence infrastructure capable of thinking on the timescales that climate change demands — decades, generations, and centuries. Without that, climate change will continue to be experienced as a succession of emergency, political, or market conditions rather than as a governable transformation.We can do this. After all, a country that once imagined itself through movement, expansion, and mastery made a certain kind of freedom seem natural. A new kind of freedom can be made to seem natural too. But right now our current system returns prosperity for many — but heat, flood, instability, and constraint for all. What was built now must be lived within — good and bad — while what was extracted must now live in the atmosphere — all bad. What gets burned today, will burn more later. The political order that was built through extraction, combustion, and territorial expansion must confront the atmospheric and hydrological consequences of those choices.That confrontation will only intensify. Past century's cumulative emissions have already committed the planet to changes that will outlast any government, living generation, or institution that exists. Including you and me. The next 250 years will belong less to societies that imagine escape than to those that can build the institutional intelligence, infrastructural redundancy, and long-term public capacity required to inhabit a less legible and hospitable climate (Ouyang et al., 2023; Jaisridhar et al., 2025).So, as you watch the rocket's red glare and bombs bursting in air — sending even more smoke, chemicals and debris everywhere — know the flag will still be there. But to endure, it must repair an institution to be once again knowledgeable and fair.ReferencesBirchall, S. J., Villeneuve, K., Rose, D., Baran, N. N., & Adams, S. (2026).

Some weight you choose to carry. Some weight life straps on you.In this Behind the Brain, I get honest about a stretch where just looking okay took everything I had. New to Florida, knowing almost nobody, an out-of-towner who couldn't even react to things the way I used to back home — I was performing "fine" everywhere: with my roommate, at the crab shop, with customers — while inside I was isolating and reaching for all the wrong things to cope. Then the weight got real: I lost one of my closest friends, lost my dog of five years, and got knocked down alone in a place that still didn't feel like mine.This is the story of what it costs to carry a vest nobody else can see — and how my mom showing up for her birthday quietly handed me the thing that started making it lighter. It's not a clean victory. It's not "home" yet. But it's honest. If you're carrying your own invisible weight right now, this one's for you.

In this episode of Masters of Risk, host Stewart Webster sits down with Karan Sood, Co-Founder and CEO of Vest, to challenge one of the most widely accepted principles in investing: diversification. Karan introduces the concept of "outcomes-based investing" and explains how Vest is leveraging derivatives to engineer defined outcome ETFs—investment strategies that explicitly shape risk and return profiles. By capping upside, buffering downside, and stabilizing income, these products aim to give investors something markets rarely offer: predictability. Drawing on his deep experience in structured products and options-based strategies, Karan breaks down how derivatives can function as a form of "insurance" within portfolios—transferring risk rather than simply spreading it. He also explores the hidden fragility beneath modern portfolios, arguing that traditional diversification may create a false sense of security in a world where correlations spike precisely when protection is needed most. Together, Stewart and Karan unpack the structural risks embedded in today's markets—from concentration within major indices to the growing illusion of diversification—and discuss why investors may be overcrowding the very strategies they believe mitigate risk. A thought-provoking conversation for asset managers, risk professionals, and financial advisors seeking to rethink portfolio construction, challenge long-held assumptions, and build more resilient investment strategies in an increasingly interconnected market.

She saw the commercial — the one with the Red Cross volunteer in the red vest, hugging someone, handing over a blanket — and told her husband, "When I retire, I want to be that person." On this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael continues her year-long Red Cross series with Deb Fleming, Executive Director of the Greater Shenandoah Valley Chapter, who brings along volunteer Jill Johnson — a retired teacher who has now been deployed five times (three nationally, two locally) and is on standby for another deployment as the conversation is happening. Jill walks through the surprisingly simple sign-up process at redcross.org, how the certifications stack (sheltering, feeding, and more), and the dual paths she's chosen: Prepare with Pedro, a K-2 disaster preparedness program she teaches in local schools, churches, and scout groups, alongside national deployments to Hurricane Ian in Fort Myers, the Southern California floods and mudslides, and Hurricane Helene in Asheville. She shares what it actually looks like inside a shelter — bearded dragons, dancing parrots, Tide trucks doing laundry, FEMA tents holding a thousand people for dinner — and why the Red Cross changed its pet policy after recognizing that families won't evacuate without their animals. Plus: Deb's good news that the chapter has already hit its volunteer recruitment goals for the year because so many people stepped up in unexpected ways. ABOUT THE GREATER SHENANDOAH VALLEY CHAPTER The American Red Cross Greater Shenandoah Valley Chapter serves the region with disaster response, blood services, military family support, health and safety education, and community preparedness programs. The chapter has met its 2026 volunteer recruitment goals — including a recent reduction in target numbers based on how well the local chapter has performed. ABOUT PREPARE WITH PEDRO A free Red Cross disaster preparedness program designed for children in grades K-2. The program uses books, videos, songs, and hands-on activities to teach kids the basics of home fire safety — including escape plans, meeting places, smoke alarm checks, the "get low and go" technique for smoke, and coping/breathing exercises that apply to disasters and everyday stressful moments. Available free to classrooms, scout groups, church groups, and any setting with children. Schools and groups can request a visit through their local Red Cross chapter. WAYS TO VOLUNTEER (THERE'S MORE THAN YOU THINK) • Direct disaster response — sheltering, feeding (local and national deployments, two-week commitments) • Disaster preparedness education — Prepare with Pedro, hands-only CPR, home fire safety • Smoke alarm installation in partnership with local fire departments • Behind-the-scenes — logistics, supply, planning, weather tracking, government operations coordination • Blood services support • Military family support (armed forces programs) • Local events and community outreach • Set your own schedule — volunteer as much or as little as your life allows LINKS & RESOURCES • Sign up to volunteer: redcross.org → click "Volunteer"  THE VALLEY TODAY with Janet Michael — A decade of conversations.

Malul Vânăt / A River's Gaze, primul film din trilogia despre iubire în mediul rural, semnat de regizoarea Andreea Cristina Borțun și primul proiect românesc susținut de actorul american de origine română Sebastian Stan se lansează în premieră națională la TIFF 2026 în cadrul Zilelor Filmului Românesc. Filmul este o dramă antropologică ce adoptă o abordare aproape unică în cinemaul românesc: distribuția este formată în proporție de peste 60% din actori neprofesioniști din satele unde Andreea Cristina Borțun a realizat documentarea pe teren timp de șase ani (2017–2022), iar filmările s-au desfășurat pe durata a patru anotimpuri, pentru a surprinde ciclul naturii și al vieții rurale. Am discutat cu Andreea Borțun despre dramaturgia elastică care a stat la baza construcției filmului Malul vânăt și a protagonistei sale, Lavinia, o mamă singură care se luptă pentru a oferi o viață mai bună fiului ei de 14 ani, Dani, într-un sat din sudul României. Pe fondul migrației spre Vest și al transformărilor sociale, visul Laviniei de a renova casa lor și de a trăi o viață liberă de constrângerile pe care comunitatea sa i le impune.

Un sonido metálico imposible de identificar llevó a dos niños a cruzar un puente en un parque de la Isla de Wight, Inglaterra, y encontrarse cara a cara con algo que jamás pudieron explicar.  Medía casi dos metros, tenía la piel blanca como papel, ojos en forma de triángulo azul y antenas saliendo de la cabeza, las muñecas y los tobillos. Vestía como un payaso grotesco y se movía dando saltos antinaturales, como si la gravedad no funcionara igual para él. La criatura los condujo hasta una extraña cabaña oculta cerca del lago, donde les dijo llamarse “Sam” y aseguró ser “un fantasma… de una manera extraña”.  Durante horas, los niños convivieron con aquel ser imposible, mientras los adultos alrededor parecían incapaces de verlo. Décadas después, el caso del “Payaso Fantasma de Sandown” sigue siendo uno de los encuentros paranormales más desconcertantes y absurdos de la historia moderna.

Joined on episode 356 by firefighter/paramedic and founder of VEST First Responder LLC, the one and only Jake Hecht!!!! Tuesday, May 26th8 PM CSTFrom high school history teacher to pro MMA fighter (3× UFC veteran) and now firefighter, Jake turned a violent patient encounter into a mission, dedicating his career to protecting those who protect others.  As a former Army Combatives Instructor and former Lead Defensive Tactics Instructor for the Columbia, Missouri Police Department, Jake has now trained more than 3,000 firefighters and EMS providers across 10 states on practical, field-tested workplace violence survival. On this episode we're digging into:  How VEST was born from real calls and why there's virtually no standardized training for violent patient encounters in fire/EMS . Why most de-escalation talk is empty buzzwords and exactly where the line is before physical options kick in. Common admin objections and the culture that treats getting assaulted as “part of the job”.We will also discuss the reporting platform that Jake built to stop sweeping these incidents under the rug - www.firstresponderviolence.com Of coure, we can always count on the live audience to bring the heat with their questions. It is what continues to make the Scrap the absolute best. We go wherever the conversation takes us. Episode 356 made possible by our incredible sponsors:  SnapTite Hose & FireStation Furniture

Ken Timmins, commodity trader at American International Forest Products and host of the Component Connection podcast, stops by to explain what actually happens on a 55-person lumber trading floor -and how he got hired by eating donuts in a sweater vest on zero hours of sleep. Ken breaks down the three pillars of trading (market analyst, sales, hard work), why lumber is more emotional than a third-grade cafeteria, and why freight costs are staying elevated even if oil comes off. He also shares that 2026 has been a surprisingly strong market - running longer than almost anyone predicted - and drops enough food analogies to make you genuinely hungry by the end. Logs to lumber is potatoes to french fries.

Deși pare că situația din Iran s-a ameliorat temporar, războiul ne-a arătat cât de dependente sunt, de fapt, statele europene de petrolul și gazele din Asia de Vest. Totodată, au fost reluate discuțiile despre necesitatea tranziției energetice, de la combustibilii fosili și alte surse poluante, la surse regenerabile, precum cele solare, eoliene sau hidroelectrice.Nu și în România, unde, de câțiva ani, politicienii se încăpățânează să caute alternative mai puțin sustenabile pentru asigurarea independenței și suveranității energetice.Răzvan și Vlad analizează, în acest episod din „Politică la minut by Recorder”, cât de dificilă este, de fapt, tranziția energetică și care va fi soarta Europei, prinsă la mijloc între doi giganți: petrostatul american și electrostatul chinezesc.Invitată: Ana Otilia Nuțu, analistă de politici publice în energie și infrastructură, companii publice și autorități de reglementare.

(00:00-19:40) Doug got a fade from Jerry The Barber. Clothes made out of human hair. Plowhawk forgot to hit aux. The Kings ripped Doug's heart out and put it back in last night. A scuffle for eighth. Doug can't get past the hair vests. Maybe some TMA merch made out of hair. Congrats to the March Listener of the Month, Gooner Reloaded. What's your favorite Joe Pesci movie.(19:48-51:53) Fun tie-ins. Jackson, our resident gigolo. Bull for hire. Masyn Winn with the walk-off hit and then a little car accident. This show is like the Statue of Liberty. Should we do a show from the moon? Old school takes. Still yearning for navy caps. Blues season on life support. QFTA today and anything goes.(52:03-1:41:24) We may have a hit on our hands with this Navy Caps on the Road. Maybe we should shoot a movie video for it. Can we get Courtney to play it on The Arch? Breaking down the Final Four. Mr. Lix chiming in on the phone lines and he's got some airport questions. People walking sideways down the aisle. Dirty kitchens. Purchasing Cheryl Dilcher's entire catalog. Some Cardinal talk. Talkin' Jake. Close your eyes and think bull, what do you see? Oven mitts to run the bases.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You're already walking… but somehow, you've convinced yourself it's "not enough." So now you're side-eyeing a weighted vest… thinking this is the thing that's finally going to make it work. Because this is exactly how women end up with a closet full of "I should be using this" fitness equipment. I brought in Kayla Girgen to cut through the nonsense, and we cover: rucking vs. weighted vests (spoiler: it's not about which one looks cooler) how to start without turning this into a whole production the biggest mistake women make — and yes, it's probably yours too why you keep thinking you need to do more… when you don't Here's the part nobody wants to hear: You don't need a harder workout. You need one you'll actually do… consistently. Some days that's a weighted walk. Some days it's just a walk. Both count. If this episode called you out (just a little): Take the "Is Your Metabolism Tired AF?" quiz Because you're not inconsistent… you're just trying to push in a season that needs you to chill a bit.
