How to navigate the risks and opportunities when selling to farmers and Ag buyers Volatility is great for Ag salespeople, If they recognize the opportunity. If they can sort through the noise. Volatility is bad for Ag salespeople, If they fail to recognize the risk. If they ignore it and don't get in front of it. As salespeople, we love selling into a booming market.  However, in 35 years in agribusiness, there may have been maybe six years of this type of booming Ag economy.  The rest of those years, I would consider to be “volatile”.  Odds are high that you will spend the majority of your agribusiness career selling to customers who are having difficult times.  That's why you need to look at volatility through a different lens than your customers and, more importantly, differently than your competition.  Listen in as we discuss how you can learn to look at volatility differently and become more effective for your customers.

The Joan Barry Scandal and FBI OrchestrationChaplin's life took a tragic turn during a volatile relationship with an aspiring actress named Joan Barry, who once held him at gunpoint. Barry later claimed Chaplin was the father of her child, leading to a high-profile paternity suit and a Mann Act indictment for transporting her across state lines. Although blood tests definitively proved Chaplin was not the biological father, a California jury ruled against him, forcing him to pay 18 years of child support. Barry eventually claimed the FBI had fomented the case to destroy Chaplin's reputation, a campaign fueled by hostile gossip columnists like Hedda Hopper. Guest: Scott Eyman. (4/8)1908 LA

Most have been subjected to religious behavioral requirements. It may be a standard you set for yourself, or it may have come from church friends or other sources. Maybe even by misunderstandings within Bible verses. If you convince yourself you're doing a 'pretty good' job of keeping up by performing enough to think of yourself as a successful doer, your 'spiritual' and emotional confidence rises. Wander from it and you might start to wonder where you stand with God—and what you need to do to get back on track. The good news of the gospel of grace is that we *can* be confident and at peace ... but it's not based on our obedience or trying to be good enough with what *we* do. It is fully rooted in Jesus, His obedience, His blood, and a redemptive work He completed once, for all. Anything else will have the legal eagles swooping for an opportunity to bring the fish back to their nest. --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7

Get ready for this quick bonus segment of the 2026 Kentucky Derby Monster Podcast from In The Money Media with Peter Thomas Fornatale (PTF) joined by Eric DeCoster to talk about one of the also eligibles that drew into the race, Great White. After the sensational story of Rich Strike drawing into the Kentucky Derby from the also eligible list and scoring the largest upset of the race's history in the 2022 Kentucky Derby, PTF wanted to ensure that every horse on the also eligible list coming into Kentucky Derby 2026 had some analysis at the ready. Great White is a gelding by Volatile and is currently the second richest foal from Volatile behind the sprinter Faust. He's out of the Uncle Mo mare Kelly Bag, who raced a few times before hitting the breeding shed as a maiden. Distance will be a question mark for Great White, who will have many lengths to find after his fifth-place finish behind Further Ado in the 2026 Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland, which earned him just enough points to land into this lucky spot in the Kentucky Derby starting gate since he only accrued a handful of points with his win in the John Battaglia Memorial at Turfway Park. He's trained by John Ennis and slated to ride is Alex Achard.

A Volatile Picture: War and the Political Work of Photography in Sri Lanka (U Washington Press, 2026) by Dr. Vindhya Buthpitiya is a groundbreaking ethnography that explores how, in the context of Sri Lanka's protracted civil war and its turbulent aftermath, photography has become bound to the Tamil political imagination. From state-commissioned images meant to surveil and rebel documentation of armed resistance, to the fragile memorials created from identity photographs of the disappeared, A Volatile Picture traces the making and moving of images across borders, communities, and generations. Studio portraits, passport pictures, family albums, atrocity photography, social media posts, and more act not only as records of loss and horror but also as vital tools for protest, solidarity, and the realization of alternate political futures. Drawing on transnational archival and ethnographic encounters and long-term fieldwork in northern Sri Lanka, Dr. Buthpitiya situates photography as both a volatile medium and a political practice. Photographs emerge here as incendiary agents—simultaneously evidencing and triggering violence, sustaining memory, and inciting new visions of liberation.This is the first in-depth study of Tamil photographic practices in Sri Lanka, offering a major contribution to the anthropology of war, visual culture, and South Asian studies. Richly researched and deeply humane, A Volatile Picture demonstrates how, amid devastation and displacement, photographs continue to generate truths, solidarities, and hopes that resist erasure. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

What is next for corporate credit—investment-grade and high yield corporate bonds and leveraged loans—after a volatile first quarter? Credit fundamentals were sound coming into 2026, and while the U.S. economy has shown resilience, the path of energy prices and geopolitical risk continues to stay elevated. Tom Hauser, Head of Corporate Credit, and Dan Montegari, Head of Research for Corporate Credit, join Macro Markets to help us make sense of these dynamics and their potential impact on corporate credit portfolios and the outlook going forward.Related Content:Successful Investing Means Looking Through the NoiseAnne Walsh, CIO of Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, joins CNBC to discuss market dynamics amid geopolitical tensions and why private debt remains a good place to invest.Watch VideoSecond Quarter 2026 Fixed-Income Sector ViewsIdentifying relative value across the fixed-income market.Read 2Q26 Fixed Income Sector Views The Advantage of Investing in Real Assets and InfrastructureThe dynamic landscape of infrastructure investing has diverse opportunities across sectors and the risk-return spectrum.Read ReportInvesting involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. In general, the value of a fixed-income security falls when interest rates rise and rises when interest rates fall. Longer term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes and subject to greater volatility than those with shorter maturities. High yield and unrated debt securities are at a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds and may be less liquid, which may increase volatility. Private debt investments are generally considered illiquid and not quoted on any exchange; thus they are difficult to value. The process of valuing investments for which reliable market quotations are not available is based on inherent uncertainties and may not be accurate.

When the world's most famous dancer offered a young sailor a job as his assistant, Blue Robinson thought it was a joke at first. But what followed was the most fascinating and formative year of Blue's life.Simon 'Blue' Robinson grew up sailing and playing rugby on the idyllic island of Jersey, between England and France.In his 20s, he went further a field, first to London and then Blue started working on yachts sailing around the Caribbean.One evening at a restaurant in St Barts, Blue spotted a man whose face he recognised, and invited him on board the yacht the next day.That man was Rudolf Nureyev, hugely famous for his talents as a ballet dancer, his volatile temper, and for defecting from the Soviet Union.Nureyev took an immediate liking to Blue and spontaneously offered him a job as his assistant.The two next met months later, when Blue found himself side stage in Cleveland, Ohio, helping the legendary dancer undress, and preparing him a thermos of hot tea.This began an extraordinary and transformative year for Blue as the assistant, dresser, masseur, driver, cook, and trusted confidante of history's most iconic and legendary male ballet dancer.Blue's book, A Year with Rudolf Nureyev, is currently being turned into an audio book.He is still working as a writer, helping people write their private memoirs.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris.

In 2025, the clean energy market navigated a mix of shifting tariffs, evolving FEOC compliance rules, and uncertainty around tax policy. On the surface, it looked like a year defined by instability. And yet, capital continued to move. Total capital expenditures across the clean economy reached roughly $120 billion, with total financing activity exceeding $200 billion across the full stack of project capital. The transferable tax credit market scaled to about $42 billion, growing rapidly in just a few years. So why are the underlying dynamics so strong? In this episode, recorded live as part of a Frontier Forum, Stephen Lacey speaks with Alfred Johnson, CEO of Crux, and Katie Bays, Managing Director and Head of Research at Crux, about what actually happened beneath the surface of the market. They discuss how developers and investors navigated uncertainty, how financing structures evolved to provide more flexibility, and why underlying demand continued to pull capital into the sector. Read the full Crux market intelligence report. And watch the full video of the Frontier Forum here, which features even more depth on tax credit pricing, safe harbor strategies, evolving deal structures.
