Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Kamis, 12 Februari 2026Bacaan: "Jangan kamu menghakimi, supaya kamu tidak dihakimi." (Matius 7:1)Renungan: Suatu hari, di kereta api ada seorang anak gadis duduk di samping ibunya. Di dalam kereta, gadis itu memandang keluar jendela, dan tak henti-hentinya menyebut hal-hal yang ia lihat di sepanjang perjalanan dengan antusias. "Ma lihat, pohon-pohon itu. Wah, sawahnya benar-benar bagus ! Sungainya indah!" Di depan mereka duduk sepasang anak muda. Keduanya melihatnya dengan tatapan heran. Bagaimana tidak, untuk seukuran usianya, kelakuan anak gadis itu tampak begitu kekanak-kanakan dan berlebihan. Karena gadis tersebut terus saja menyebut hal-hal yang ia lihat, akhirnya salah satu dari anak muda itu mulai tidak tahan dan mengeluh kepada sang ibu. "Kenapa sih anak ibu lebay, sekali ? Masak, sungai, pohon, saja dibilang bagus? Norak! Kayak ga pernah lihat aja sebelumnya!" Si anak terdiam. Ibunya langsung menjawab, "Ya, anak saya ini memang sudah lama sekali tidak melihat hal-hal seperti ini. Beberapa tahun ini, matanya mengalami kebutaan, dan baru hari ini, setelah dioperasi seminggu yang lalu, penglihatannya kembali normal." Berapa banyak dari kita yang tanpa sadar juga bersikap demikian? Ketika melihat ada teman yang begitu bersemangat karena doanya dijawab, mungkin ada yang menilai bahwa ia berlebihan. Padahal, orang tidak tahu, berapa lama ia sudah menanti untuk jawaban doa itu. Saat pemilik Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg menikah dengan wanita yang parasnya biasa saja, banyak orang menilai bahwa pilihannya kurang tepat. Padahal, mereka tidak tahu dengan keadaan yang sebenarnya. Ya, orang hanya bisa menilai dari luar, cuma memerhatikan yang di permukaan saja. Mari kita belajar untuk tidak cepat menghakimi. Apa yang kita nilai benar, baik, salah, keliru atau tidak baik kadang-kadang faktanya tidak seperti yang kita pikirkan. Oleh sebab itu, berhati-hatilah sebelum bicara. Pikirkan dulu sebelum berucap dan menilai. Jika kita melakukannya, maka kita tidak akan menyinggung perasaan orang lain. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ajarilah aku agar tidak mudah menghakimi orang lain, karena apa yang kupikirkan belum tentu sama dengan apa yang terjadi sesungguhnya. Amin. (Dod).

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Senin, 5 Januari 2026Bacaan: "Setiap orang yang mendengar perkataan-Ku ini dan melakukannya, ia sama dengan orang yang bijaksana, yang mendirikan rumahnya di atas batu. Kemudian turunlah hujan dan datanglah banjir, lalu angin melanda rumah itu, tetapi rumah itu tidak rubuh sebab didirikan di atas batu. " (Matius 7:24-25)Renungan: Ada seorang dosen yang sangat pandai dan hebat dalam mengajar. Karena itu, berbagai universitas sering mengundangnya untuk mengajar. Suatu kali ia diundang mengajar di satu universitas yang ia belum pernah mengajar sebelumnya. Setelah menyelesaikan pekerjaannya, ia diantar sopirnya pergi ke universitas itu. Di tengah perjalanan ia iseng berkata kepada sopirnya, "Sebenarnya hari ini saya lelah sekali. Saya tidak ingin mengajar." Sopirnya berkata, "Bapak tidak usah mengajar sore ini, biar saya saja yang menggantikan Bapak." "Lho, kamu bisa gantiin saya?" tanya dosen tersebut. "Iya Pak. Saya kan sudah mengantar Bapak puluhan kali dan Bapak mengajar yang itu-itu juga, jadi saya sudah hafal Pak. Saya pasti bisa. Lagipula universitas itu belum tahu bagaimana wajah Bapak, jadi tidak perlu khawatir, Pak!" jawab sopir itu dengan yakinnya. Akhirnya dosen itu pun setuju. Lalu mereka bertukar tempat, dosen menyetir mobil dan sopir duduk di belakang layaknya seorang dosen. Tiba di universitas tersebut, sopir yang berlagak seperti dosen itu masuk kelas dan langsung mengajar. Sedangkan dosen yang asli mendengar dan melihat dari luar apa yang diajarkan oleh sopir itu. Dan ternyata, dengan mendengar puluhan kali saja, sopir itu betul-betul bisa mengajar persis dari A sampai Z. Namun di akhir perkuliahan timbul masalah, yaitu ketika sampai di sesi tanya jawab. Seorang mahasiswa bertanya, "Pak, bagaimana menerapkan apa yang Bapak ajarkan itu ke dalam kehidupan sehari-hari?" Sopir itu bingung karena ia tidak bisa menjawab. Tetapi ia tidak habis akal. "Wah, ini pertanyaan yang sangat mudah. Saking mudahnya sopir saya saja bisa menjawabnya!" Lalu ia memanggil "sopirnya". Akhirnya "sopirnya" itu dengan mudah menjawab pertanyaan tersebut dan pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang lainnya. Seperti sopir itu, orang bisa memiliki banyak pengetahuan tanpa tahu mempraktikkannya. Sebagai anak-anak Tuhan kita bisa juga seperti sopir ini yang tahu banyak kebenaran firman Tuhan, tetapi berhenti hanya sampai di pengetahuan saja, tanpa mempraktikkannya. Yesus berfirman, "Setiap orang yang mendengar perkataanku ini dan melakukannya, ia sama dengan orang yang bijaksana, yang mendirikan rumahnya di atas batu. Kemudian turunlah hujan dan datanglah banjir, lalu angin melanda rumah itu, tetapi rumah itu tidak rubuh sebab didirikan di atas batu." Perkataan ini diberikan oleh Yesus sebagai penutup dari khotbah di bukit. Oleh karena itu, mari kita menjadi orang yang bijaksana, yakni orang yang setelah mendengarkan firman Tuhan kemudian menjadi pelaku dari firman tersebut. Jauhkan diri dari menjadi orang bodoh, yang hanya mendengar tanpa mau melakukan. Keputusan ada di tangan kita masing-masing, mau menjadi orang bijak atau orang bodoh. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, aku ingin menjadi orang yang bijaksana, dengan menjadi pelaku dari setiap firman Tuhan yang aku dengar setiap hari. Amin. (Dod).

英語と日本語、「はっきり」の根本的な違い「英語は、単語同士を滑らかにつないで発音する（リンキング）のが良い」と聞いたことがあるかもしれません。しかし、「一語一句はっきりと発音した方が丁寧で通じやすいのでは？」と疑問に思いませんか？実は、英語の「はっきり」と日本語の「はっきり」は、根本的に方向性が異なります。

Hai Wonder Kids, kembali dalam renungan anak GKY Mangga Besar.Judul renungan hari ini adalah:BERUBAH SEPENUHNYAMari kita membaca Firman Tuhan dariROMA 12:2“Janganlah kamu menjadi serupa dengan dunia ini, tetapi berubahlah oleh pembaharuan budimu, sehingga kamu dapat membedakan manakah kehendak Allah: apa yang baik, yang berkenan kepada Allah dan yang sempurna.”Wonder Kids, coba bayangkan kamu punya HP lama yang jalannya lambat, kameranya buram, dan baterainya cepat habis. Lalu orang tuamu membelikan HP baru yang cepat, kameranya jernih, dan baterainya tahan lama. Wah, rasanya beda sekali kan? HP lama dan HP baru itu tidak sama, benar-benar berubah!Hidup kita juga begitu. Sebelum mengenal Yesus, kita seperti HP lama: penuh dosa, mudah marah, egois, dan tidak taat. Tapi ketika Roh Kudus bekerja, Dia tidak sekadar memperbaiki sedikit-sedikit, melainkan mengubah kita dari dalam. Kita menjadi manusia baru yang berpikir, berkata, dan bertindak sesuai kehendak Allah.Firman Tuhan mengingatkan, jangan meniru dunia ini. Dunia sering mengajarkan untuk mementingkan diri sendiri, mencari kesenangan tanpa peduli orang lain, atau mengejar popularitas. Tetapi kita diajak untuk berubah—dibaharui dalam pikiran, sehingga kita tahu apa yang benar dan berkenan kepada Tuhan.MARI KITA BERTUMBUH DI DALAM ANUGERAH TUHANWonder Kids, hari ini cobalah perhatikan satu kebiasaan lamamu yang tidak baik, misalnya mudah marah atau malas berdoa. Mintalah Tuhan Yesus mengubahnya. Percayalah, Roh Kudus sanggup menjadikanmu pribadi yang baru.Mari kita berdoaBapa, ubahkan pikiranku dan hatiku supaya aku tidak meniru dunia, tetapi hidup sesuai kehendak-Mu. Terima kasih karena Engkau bekerja dalam hidupku melalui Roh Kudus. Dalam nama Tuhan Yesus aku berdoa, Amin.Wonder Kids, TUHAN MENGUBAH KITA SEPENUHNYA, BUKAN SEDIKIT-Sedikit, SUPAYA HIDUP KITA MEMULIAKAN DIA. Tuhan Yesus memberkati.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan Sabtu, 25 Oktober 2025Bacaan: Yesaya 52:7 "Betapa indahnya kelihatan dari puncak bukit-bukit kedatangan pembawa berita, yang mengabarkan berita damai dan memberitakan kabar baik, yang mengabarkan berita selamat dan berkata kepada Sion: "Allahmu itu Raja!" Renungan: Lima belas tahun lalu tepatnya tanggal 25 Oktober 2010 setelah saya membeli handphone blackberry second, Tuhan menggerakkan saya untuk mengirim doa pagi untuk murid-murid, orang tua murid dan juga teman-teman yang juga memakai blackberry. Tujuan saya hanya sederhana, yaitu supaya saya dan mereka bisa meluangkan waktu beberapa menit untuk menyapa Tuhan. Setelah beberapa hari ada seorang murid yang memberikan komentar, "Pak Doddy, kenapa hanya doa pagi saja. Kenapa bapak gak buat satu paket, ada bacaan, renungan singkat dan doa singkat, sehingga kita bisa baca lengkap tiap hari." Kemudian saya pun memulai untuk mewujudkan usulan murid saya tersebut. Setiap hari dalam perjalan pulang pergi ke sekolah, di sekolah atau saat bertemu teman-teman, kalau ada kejadian menarik saya selalu tulis menjadi sebuah renungan harian yang saya beri nama "Kencan Dengan Tuhan". Terkadang kalau saya sedang kumpul dengan teman-teman dan kalau ada hal menarik, ada saja teman yang berkata, " Wah, hati-hati nih, besok bisa masuk Kencan Dengan Tuhan." Seiring berjalannya waktu saya pun mulai membeli buku-buku cerita singkat mengenai kehidupan yang menginspirasi dan sebagainya. Melalui kisah itu saya mengemas menjadi renungan singkat. Ternyata tanpa saya sadari ada banyak orang yang terberkati dengan renungan Kencan Dengan Tuhan. Banyak orang-orang baik hati yang Tuhan pilih menjadi kurir-kurir-Nya untuk juga menyebarkan renungan tersebut, sampai akhirnya pada tanggal 30 April 2021 melalui orang-orang yang baik, saya mendapatkan Rekor Indonesia Muri sebagai penulis naskah harian Kencan Dengan Tuhan. Tidak terasa hari ini sudah 15 tahun Kencan Dengan Tuhan menemani hari-hari banyak orang untuk memberi makanan bagi rohani mereka. Kita adalah kurir Tuhan. Sebagai kurir Tuhan yang baik, kita harus membawa sesuatu yang baik dalam diri kita. Sesuatu yang baik itu adalah firman Tuhan, bukan gosip, fitnah, cemoohan, berita dusta atau kata-kata yang menjatuhkan. Firman Tuhan akan menghibur, menguatkan dan menasihati orang, tetapi gosip dan "teman-temannya" tersebut akan menghancurkan orang. Sebagai kurir Tuhan yang baik, kita harus memastikan menjaga firman Tuhan itu hingga sampai kepada setiap orang. Kadang firman Tuhan ditolak gara-gara sang kurir yang berkelakuan buruk, sekalipun firman yang dibawanya adalah benar. Oleh sebab itu, mari, apa yang sudah ditanamkan dalam diri kita, yaitu karakter yang baik, kita wujudkan dalam sikap hidup dan perbuatan nyata sehari-hari. Saya sudah berusaha menjadi kurir Tuhan walau harus jatuh bangun. Kini saya mengajak kita semua yang setia membaca Kencan Dengan Tuhan, untuk juga menjadi kurir-kurir rohani sehingga banyak jiwa dibawa semakin dekat pada Tuhan. Terima kasih untuk kesetiaannya membaca renungan Kencan Dengan Tuhan selama 15 tahun ini. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, urapilah mulut, bibir, lidah dan suaraku dengan kuasa-Mu, agar setiap pemberitaan firman yang kusampaikan dapat diterima oleh setiap orang, sehingga mereka mendapatkan kelepasan, kesembuhan dan kelegaan. Perbaharui juga karakterku, agar melalui kehadiranku, nama-Mu semakin dimuliakan. Amin. (Dod).

Hey there! It's Michael here - and welcome back to another Happy English Sunday Speak. I'm here every Sunday with a quick one-point tip to help you speak English more naturally.Now, in American English, there's a special sound we make with the letter T. It's called the flap T, and it sounds kind of like a soft D sound. You'll hear it in words like better, water, and pretty. So instead of saying “BET-ter,” “WAH-ter,” and “PRIT-ty,” Americans usually say “BEH-der,” “WAH-der,”  and “PRI-dee.” This sound happens when the T comes between two vowel sounds — like the a and e in water, or the i and y in city. Let me give you some sentences to practice this:  “I feel better today.” → “I feel beh-der today.” “We had a pretty nice day in the city.” → We had a pri-dee nice day in the sih-dy.” “Can I get a glass of water?” → “Can I gedda glass of wah-der?”This flap T sound makes your English smoother and more natural — just like how most Americans really speak. Thanks for listening. And remember to like, follow, and subscribe so you won't miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week's Sunday Speak.

あなたの英語、会議でこんな風になっていませんか？海外のメンバーとの英語会議。あなたは自信を持って発言できていますか？（自信なさげにボソボソと…）「Ah, my opinion is…」（誰の耳にも届かず、議論は進んでいく）（勇気を出して意見を言ったのに…）「Yes, I'm not quite agreed with that idea.」「Sorry, you're what?」（簡単な単語すら通じず、何度も聞き返されて焦る）（相手の早口な英語に圧倒され、もはや何も言えない…）「Since there are no further comments, let's move on to the next topic.」「...Yes.」（結局、ただ頷くだけで会議が終わってしまった）せっかく海外で挑戦するチャンスを得て、内容のある良い意見を持っているのに、「話し方」や「発音」が原因で、あなたの価値が正当に評価されない。これは、非常にもったいないことです。しかし、ご安心ください。実は、たった3つのポイントを意識するだけで、あなたの英語の「信頼度」と「影響力」は劇的に変わります。この記事では、あなたのビジネスキャリアを加速させる「ネイティブに響く英語の話し方」を、具体的なトレーニング方法と共にご紹介します。なぜあなたの英語は「軽く」聞こえてしまうのか？3つの原因そもそも、なぜ私たちの英語はネイティブスピーカーに届きにくいのでしょうか。それは、単に文法や単語力の問題だけではありません。根本的な「音」の出し方に原因があります。原因①：日本語は「響かない声」、英語は「響かせる声」先日、私が参加した大学の授業での出来事です。留学生が大半を占める中、数少ない日本人学生が発表する場面がありました。内容は非常に興味深いものでしたが、彼らの声はマイクを使っているにもかかわらず、ざわめきの中に埋もれてしまいがちでした。一方で、留学生たちは地声でも驚くほど声が通ります。これは、日本語が主に口先で発声するのに対し、英語は喉の奥や胸、鼻腔などを共鳴させて「響かせる」言語であるという、根本的な発声法の違いから来ています。どんなに正しい文章を話していても、声が相手に届かなければ、存在しないのと同じになってしまいます。原因②：声が平坦で、重要な部分が伝わらない英語には特有のリズムと抑揚（ストレス）があります。しかし、私たちは全ての音を均一の長さと強さで発音してしまう癖があります。例えば、situation という単語。日本人は「シ・チュ・エ・ー・ショ・ン」と、全ての音節を同じように発音しがちです。しかし、ネイティブは si-tu-A-tion のように、「A」の音を最も強く、長く発音します。この「ストレス」を無視してしまうと、文章全体が平坦になり、どこが重要なのか全く伝わりません。結果として、相手はあなたの話を聞き取るのに多大なエネルギーを強いられ、「分かりにくい」「結局何が言いたいの？」という印象を持たれてしまうのです。原因③：自信のなさが声と姿勢に表れてしまう通じない経験が重なると、どうしても声は小さくなり、姿勢も猫背になりがちです。この「自信のなさ」は、たとえ流暢な英語を話したとしても、相手に即座に伝わります。話の内容以前に、**「この人に任せて大丈夫か？」「この意見は信頼できるのか？」**と、無意識のうちに相手を不安にさせてしまうのです。ビジネスの世界では、これは致命的なディスアドバンテージになりかねません。今回は、これら3つの不安を払拭し、あなたの意見に説得力を持たせるための具体的なトレーニングをご紹介します。実践！ネイティブに響く声を作る3つのトレーニングここからは、あなたの英語を劇的に変える3つの実践的なトレーニングです。ぜひ、声に出して試してみてください。トレーニング①：喉の奥から「響く声」を出せまず、英語を話すための土台となる「響く声」を手に入れましょう。ポイントは、喉をリラックスさせて開くことです。ステップあくびをするように、喉の奥を大きく開く感覚を掴みます。息を吸い込み、口蓋の奥の柔らかい部分（ソフトパレット）に息を当てるイメージを持ちます。喉の奥から、リラックスした深いため息をつくように「ハー」と声を出します。この感覚を掴んだら、実際に単語で練習してみましょう。実践練習hah~ hah~ hah~ hot (x3)It was very hot this summer.ha~ ha~ ha~ hand (x3)Add a handful of salt and pepper.口先ではなく、お腹から喉の奥を通って音が出ているのを感じられれば完璧です。トレーニング②：ストレスを意識し「リズム」を作れ次に、単語や文章に力強いリズムを生み出すトレーニングです。ストレスを置く音節は「強く・長く・高く」、それ以外は「弱く・短く・曖昧に」発音するのがコツです。大文字の部分にストレスを置いて、はっきりと違いを意識しながら発音してみましょう。実践練習MA-ma, MA-ma, MA-ma → MAster, MAster, MAsterIt's not easy to master it.WAH-wa, WAH-wa, WAH-wa → WAH-nted, WAH-nted, WAH-ntedThat's what I wanted to do.この強弱のリズムが、あなたの英語に生命を吹き込み、相手の耳に重要な情報がダイレクトに届くようになります。トレーニング③：堂々と話せ！自信は「声」が作るトレーニング①（響き）と②（リズム）が身につくと、驚くほどあなたの声は変わり、自然と自信に満ちた話し方ができるようになります。最後に、仕上げとして、自信に満ちたキャラクターになりきって話すトレーニングをしましょう。お手本は、海外ドラマ『SUITS』の伝説の弁護士、ハーヴィー・スペクターです。彼のセリフからは、一切の迷いが感じられません。下記のセリフを、彼のイメージで、力強く、そして堂々と発音してみてください。（カタカナはあくまで補助的なガイドです）実践練習 (ハーヴィー・スペクターになりきって)Harvey: Well, you go back to the witness's house,/wel, yoo gou bak tu thuh WIT-nes-iz haus/(いいから、もう一度証人の家に行け)Harvey: and you get her to testify again./an ju GEH-der tu TES-ti-fai uh-GEN/(そして、彼女にもう一度証言させるんだ)Mike: I tried. There's no way./ai TRAID, theirs NOU wei/(やりましたが、無理です)Harvey: There's ALWAYS a way./theirs AL-weiz uh WEI/(方法は必ずある)いかがでしょうか？声の出し方やリズムを変えるだけで、同じ言葉でも全く違う意味を持つように感じませんか？この「堂々とした態度」こそが、ビジネスの交渉や会議において、あなたを有利に導く武器となります。まとめ：あなたの声は、あなたの価値を証明する本日お伝えした3つのポイントを、もう一度振り返りましょう。喉の奥から声を出す → これにより、あなたの声が相手に物理的に届くようになります。長い音と短い音をはっきりさせる → これにより、あなたの話の重要なポイントが明確に伝わります。堂々と話す → ①と②の実践が、揺るぎない自信を生み出します。自信が見えないところに、チャンスは訪れません。それでは、冒頭のシーンを、この3つのポイントを実践してもう一度演じてみましょう。Before:（自信なさげに、平坦な声で）"I'm not quite agreed with that idea."After:（喉の奥から響かせ、"agreed"と"idea"にストレスを置いて、堂々と）"I'm not quite aGREED with that iDEa."いかがでしょうか？話している内容は全く同じでも、後者の方が圧倒的に説得力があり、信頼できるように聞こえませんか？これが、「ネイティブに響く話し方」の力です。今日から始まるあなたの英語は、もう誰にも「舐められる」ことはありません。トレーニングを続ければ、次回の英語会議では、あなたの意見が議論の中心になっているはずです。あなたのビジネスキャリアが、この「声」のトレーニングによって、さらに輝かしいものになることを心から願っています。

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Selasa, 9 September 2025Bacaan: "Janganlah kamu menjadi hamba uang dan cukupkanlah dirimu dengan apa yang ada padamu. Karena Allah telah berfirman: "Aku sekali-kali tidak akan membiarkan engkau dan Aku sekali-kali tidak akan meninggalkan engkau." (Ibrani 13:5)Renungan: Ada seekor anjing yang kelaparan menemukan sepotong daging yang lezat di atas tanah, ia bergegas menggondol daging itu dan berlari ke tempat tinggalnya. Ketika tiba di tepi sungai, ia harus melewati jembatan. la berjalan dengan sangat hati-hati, ketika sampai di tengah jembatan, tanpa sengaja la memandang ke sungai, dan begitu melihat ke sungai bukan main kagetnya. Ia melihat ada seekor anjing di sungai itu, menggondol sepotong daging yang besar dan sedang menatapnya. Dalam hati ia mulai berpikir, "Wah, daging yang digigitnya lebih besar dibanding daging saya ini. Jika saya sedikit lebih galak terhadapnya, siapa tahu mungkin ia akan melepaskan daging itu dan lari." Lalu, ia membuka moncongnya dan menggonggong dengan keras. Begitu ia membuka moncongnya, daging dalam gigitannya lalu tiba-tiba terjatuh ke sungai, menghancurkan tubuh anjing yang berada di sungai itu. Percikan air yang dalam menghancurkan semua mimpi si anjing yang rakus ini, dan ia baru menyadari bahwa ternyata anjing itu adalah bayangan dirinya dalam air. Lalu dengan sedih ia menangis, "Kalau tahu begini aku tidak akan sedemikian rakus, namun kini, saya harus menahan lapar lagi, ke mana aku harus mencari makan?" Banyak orang ingin bisa hidup dengan lebih baik atau harus mendapatkan lebih banyak. Tanpa disadari hal itu dapat mencelakakan kepentingan orang lain, karena ia tidak puas dengan apa yang sudah diperolehnya. Bahkan ada yang tak segan-segan merampas barang milik orang lain. Lantas apa yang hilang pada manusia yang rakus? Persaudaraan, persahabatan, hati nurani atau ketenangan hati. Ini semua merupakan harta benda yang paling berharga dalam kehidupan! Hargailah semua yang kita miliki, tidak memaksakan sesuatu yang tidak bisa diperoleh, jangan karena rakus lantas malah kehilangan sesuatu yang sudah ada. "Kalau memang milik kita, pasti akan kita miliki, kalau bukan jangan memaksakan kehendak." Orang yang tahu menikmati hidup apa adanya, itulah orang yang benar-benar kaya. Tuhan Yesus memberkati.Doa:Tuhan Yesus, aku bersyukur pada-Mu karena Engkau selalu ada untukku. Engkau senantiasa mencukupi semua kebutuhanku. Asal aku setia pada-Mu, maka banyak hal yang tidak pernah kupikirkan selalu Kau sediakan untukku. Ajarilah aku juga untuk mencukupkan diriku dengan apa yang ada padaku, agar jangan sampai kerakusan menguasaiku. Amin (Dod)

Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 581 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - Brian's video with Rick Beato, Exploding tubes, and the BOSS PX-1Richard is feverish with excitement about the new Rick Beato interview with David Gilmour whereas Brian and Blake are almost completely nonplussed. This somehow becomes a discussion about pork chops before the guys look at some controversial comments from another ex-member of Pink Floyd. Boss have released a new pedal, the PX-1, which is a 'plugin loader' pedal and the guys look into it and have some interesting views about why the Internet shouldn't be as mad as they are. Brian thinks it looks a bit like a LEGO pedal - but that may not be such a bad thing. Do you still use a Wah pedal? Brian sets forth the motion that nobody does any more. Brian also managed to nearly set fire to his barn when one of his amps went supernova and he tell us all about it. Richard has a new pedal day with a vintage classic and the guys nerd out about op-amps.

「曖昧母音が分からない、音声変化や脱落が聞き取れない」これらは全て「英語のリズム」を理解することで解決できます！トピック紹介皆さんこんにちは、発音ディレクターDr. Dです。英語の発音には日本語には存在しない様々な要素が含まれます。例えば、短く曖昧に発音される母音（曖昧母音）、音がつながるときに起こる音声変化、また音が脱落するリダクションなど。これらが原因でネイティブの発音が聞き取れないことが多いわけです。今回はこれらを全て「英語のリズム」を理解することによって解決していきたいと思います。発音記号通りに発音しない英語英語はスペルや、また発音記号通りに発音されないことが多々あります。これはフレーズ全体を滑らかにつないで発音するために、音を変化させているからです。例えば次の様なケースがあります。・母音の曖昧化（曖昧母音）He is at school/heez ut skool/Classify/kla suh fai/・単語同士をつなぐ（リンキング）Take away/tei kuh wei/Take that/tei(k) tha(t)/・Tの変化（音声変化）Get it on/ge di daan/I want to do/uh wah nuh doo/・音が脱落する（リダクション）One of those people is…/wuh nuh thouz/Probably/Praab li/こういった音の変化が起こり、しかも速く発音されると日本人にとってはなかなか簡単に聞き取ることはできません。なので、あらかじめこういった発音の変化を知って、自分でも発音できる様にしておくことで徐々にパターンが読める様になり、聞き取れる様になってきます。そのためにはまず、英語のリズムを先に理解しておくことで、これら音の変化のパターンを全て包括的に理解することができます。英語はリズムで話す言語まず第一に知っておかなければならないこと。英語は “Stress-Timed Language”と呼ばれており、これは「ストレスで拍をとる言語」だということです。拍というのはリズムの単位のことです。簡単にいうと、「タン・タン・タン」とリズムをとると、それは３拍ということになります。「I'm coming right away」と発音すると、３拍で発音したことになります。これが拍です。手拍子は手で拍を取る動作です。英語はストレスと呼ばれる強調する音節を、この「拍」で捉えます。「I'm coming right away」というフレーズだと「com, right, way」の部分がストレスとなります。ストレスは意味が強い言葉に置かれ、単語の中のストレスの位置は決まっています。例えば、awayは /uh wei/ と２音節で発音されますが、/wei/ の音節がストレスです。このようにストレスでリズムをとるように発音すると、強い音と弱い音が交互に発音される感じになり、フレーズで発音した時に「リズミカルな発音」が生まれるわけです。Where are you?/wer AR yuh/I'm coming right away./um KUH min RAI da WEI/I'll be there in a minute./ul BEE ther na MI nut/母音の曖昧化英語を発音する時は、ストレスで声を張ったら脱力して、声を張ったら脱力しての繰り返しです。HAH ha HAH ha HAHこの「ha」の弱い音が曖昧母音になります。I'm coming right away./um KUH min RAI da WEI/ストレスが置かれない音節が曖昧化する感じです。この母音は特定の母音の音とかではなく、ただの脱力した声です。曖昧母音のエクササイズこの曖昧母音を出す感覚を、リズムで発音することで感じとってみましょう。同じ母音を強弱で発音して「はっきりした母音」と「曖昧な母音」を交互に発音します。ルール１、全体を一息で発音ルール２、脱力しながら弱音へ向かう(1) TAH ka TAH ka TAH kaTalk about itI'd like to talk about it.(2) BAH ta BAH ta BAH taI bought itI bought a lot of bottles.どうですか？母音が曖昧化するネイティブの発音感覚が少し分かりましたか？単語同士をつなぐリンキングリンキングに関しても英語のリズムが深く関わっています。例えば「Take it out」と発音する時も、全体を一息で「Take(強) it(弱) out(強)」のように強弱のリズムで発音します。このように発音すると自然と音がリンクしませんか？Take it out/TEI kih DAU(t)/これをカタカナ発音で発音すると「Take(強) it(強) out(強)」となってしまい抑揚がなくなってしまいます。Tの変化（音声変化）そして滑らかな抑揚を描くために、引っかかりやすい音を軽く濁らせて発音することがあります。これの代表的なのがFlap Tと呼ばれる「Tの変化」です。「Take it out」と発音する時、it の /t/ が弱い /d/ の音に変化しています。そうすることで滑らかに音をつないでいるわけです。この時に舌の位置は /t/ のままですが、少し弱く濁らせて発音しています。リンキングのエクササイズこの音声変化には色んなパターンがありますが、感覚は全て同じで、流れを出来るだけ止めないように、弱く濁らせて発音した結果、少し音が変化しています。(1) Get it/GE dih/Get it out of your mind/GE di DAU duv yer MAIND/(2) Wanted/WAH neh/I wanted to do that/uh WAH ne duh DOO thut/音が脱落する（リダクション）さらに英語は音が変化するだけでなく、そもそも脱落してしまう発音もあります。これがリダクションと呼ばれる現象です。One of those people/WUH na thouz/** of の /f/ が脱落している **Probably/PRAAB li/** 連続する /b/ が1つになっている **結局、これも英語のリズムなんです。ストレスが置かれる音節で拍をとり、それ以外の部分はスムーズに流れるように、少し省略されているに過ぎません。リダクションのエクササイズストレス音節に挟まれた、弱い発音が省略される感覚を感じてみましょう。(1) How's it going?/HAU zi GOU in/** it の /t/, または it そのものが省略されている **(2) I'm going to go grab some food before we get going./uh ma na gou/** going の /g/ が直前の m に吸収されている **(3) Where did you get that?/WER ju GEH/** did you が同化して /ju/ になっている **(4) I want to catch them right away./uh wa na KYAch em/** them の /th/ が脱落している **まとめというわけで今回は日本人にとって英語の聞き取りにくい要素となる、母音の曖昧化、リンキングや音声変化、音の脱落などの例を取り上げました。これらは結局ストレスを置いてリズミカルに発音した場合、自然とそのようになるといった感覚なんですね。どれだけ省略しても、ストレスがしっかりとリズムの軸となり発音されているから通じ合えているわけです。日本語は全ての音節を平坦に発音する言語なので、このストレスを置いてリズミカルに発音する感覚を得ることはそう簡単ではないかも知れません。しかし、こういった仕組みを理解して発音練習を２、３ヶ月も繰り返していけば、きっと感覚が掴めてくるはずです。そしてこの感覚が分かるとネイティブ発音がより鮮明に聞こえる様になります。そうすると動画を真似るコピーイングやシャドーイングの練習がちゃんとできる様になります。もし、自分ではどうしようもなければ、ドクターDイングリッシュでトレーナーをつけて少しの間やってみてください。きっとブレイクスルーできるはずです。応援していますので頑張って！それではまた来週お会いしましょう！

English born guitarist Stephen Chesney grew up in a musical household in Essex not far from the Sonuus homebase of Cambridge in East Anglia. Picking up the guitar at age 6 has given him plenty of time to go through every bit of gear imaginable along the way.After moving to the United States in the mid 2000's, Stephen toured with a nationally touring act playing venues from House of Blues to Arenas and festivals across the US.In 2012 Stephen relocated to Los Angeles where he has jammed with the likes of drummer Chris Frazier (Steve vai/Whitesnake) vocalist Eric Dover (Slash's Snakepit/Jellyfish) Matt Laug (Christina Augilera/Alanis Morrisette/Slash) and more. However, most importantly he began work on his first solo effort, assembling a band fronted by Warrant/Cry of Love/Lynch Mob vocalist Robert Mason along with Ace Frehley/Brides of Destruction drummer Scot Coogan, Edgar Winter Band bassist Koko Powell, Slash/Loggins & Messina Sax player Jim Wheeler and Ray Charles' trumpet player Mitch Manker.Both live and in the studio, Stephen now uses the Sonuus Wahoo as his Wah of choice along with the i2M musicport to help compose, arrange and orchestrate various instrumentation for not only his songs, but other artists that he works along side as a producer such as Cee-Lo Green/2ne1 guitarist and songwriter Sharon Aguilar.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Jumat, 30 Mei 2025Bacaan: "Sebab kamu semua adalah anak-anak Allah karena iman di dalam Yesus Kristus." (Galatia 3:26) Renungan: Brian seorang anak laki-laki yang baru berumur 3,5 tahun, asyik menonton tv bersama ayahnya sambil menikmati makanan kecil. Brian memperhatikan betapa lahapnya sang ayah makan biskuit coklat. Sambil menggigit biskuit itu, sang ayah berkata, "Ayah sangat suka biskuit coklat ini, apalagi bila diminum dengan segelas susu. Wah sedap sekali!" Di dalam hati Brian berpikir, "Jika aku membuatkan segelas susu untuk ayah, ia pasti akan senang. Brian pun ke dapur. Tangannya membuka pintu lemari, tapi badannya terlalu pendek untuk bisa mencapai kotak susu yang diletakkan di rak atas. Dengan tenaga anak-anaknya ia menarik kursi mendekati lemari. Lantai pun penuh goresan bekas kaki kursi yang diseret dengan paksa. Dengan sedikit berjinjit, akhirnya tangannya menggapai kotak susu yang ada di rak lemari. Sekarang giliran mengambil gelas. Bunyi gelas-gelas yang beradu keras terdengar ketika ia mengambil sebuah gelas yang cukup besar. Sebuah gelas jatuh dan pecah, tapi Brian tidak peduli. Yang ada dalam pikirannya, "Aku mau membuat segelas susu untuk ayah." Brian merasa mungkin lebih leluasa membuat susu di lantai daripada di meja, maka ia pun meletakkan gelas di lantai, berikut kotak susu dan sedikit air dalam cangkir plastik. Sementara itu, ayahnya secara diam-diam memperhatikan semua yang Brian lakukan. la melihat goresan-goresan di lantai bekas kursi yang ditarik, pintu lemari yang masih terbuka lebar, pеcahan gelas yang berserakan di sana-sini, lantai yang basah dan susu yang tumpah di mana-mana. Akhirnya, Brian mengangkat gelas besar berisi penuh dengan susu sambil berteriak memanggil-manggil ayahnya. "Ayah, aku membawakan segelas susu untuk Ayah!" Lantai serta karpet yang diinjak kakinya meninggalkan bekas susu. Gelas yang diisi susu terlalu penuh itu menetes ke lantai, karpet bahkan sofa. Karena tidak menemukan sang ayah, Brian kembali ke dapur, berdiri di sana sambil memandang sekelilingnya. Matanya melihat dapur yang berantakan. Ia memandang tubuhnya, bajunya dan kakinya, semuanya basah karena tumpahan susu. Dengan mata yang penuh rasa bersalah ia memandang kepada ayahnya yang tiba-tiba berdiri di depannya. "Ayah pasti akan menghukumku," pikirnya. Tetapi ayahnya hanya tersenyum. Ayahnya tidak melihat ia sebagai seorang anak nakal yang telah membuat segalanya kotor dan berantakan, tetapi ia melihat seorang anak yang begitu dikasihinya dan anaknya itu sedang berusaha menyenangkan hati ayahnya. Tak peduli apa yang sudah Brian lakukan, sang ayah memeluknya seraya berkata, "Engkau adalah anakku." Bapa di Sorga mengasihi kita seperti ayah Brian yang mengasihi anaknya sepenuh hati. Meskipun di dalam usaha kita untuk mengasihi dan menyenangkan hati-Nya masih terdapat banyak kekurangan karena keterbatasan kita, namun Bapa di Sorga tidak langsung memvonis kita. la tetap menyebut kita "anakNya", dan menolong kita untuk menjadi lebih baik lagi. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, aku sungguh bersyukur karena Engkau mengasihiku sekalipun dalam keterbatasanku aku sering berbuat salah. Ampuni aku Yesus. Amin. (Dod).

Mirza Hadi Ruswa recounts in the preface of his novel, Umrao Jaan Ada, how he came to write the story of a courtesan from Lucknow.  His friend Munshi Ahmad Hussain had rented a floor in a chowk in Lucknow and this is where he organised mushairas for his friends. Next to his house lives a most mysterious woman who is never seen, but sometimes late at night she can be heard singing. Once at a mushaira hosted by Munshi, Ruswa recites a couplet and a soft voice from next door exclaims, “wah! Wah!”. The mysterious lady invites Ruswa to her home and turns out to be Umrao Jaan Ada who Ruswa had known many years ago. She then proceeds to narrate her story to Ruswa, which then became the famous novel, Umrao Jaan Ada. मिर्ज़ा हादी रुसवा अपने उपन्यास उमराव जान अदा की प्रस्तावना में बताते हैं कि कैसे उन्होंने लखनऊ की एक तवायफ़ की कहानी लिखी। उनके दोस्त मुंशी अहमद हुसैन ने लखनऊ के एक चौक में एक घर किराये पर लिया था। यहाँ वो अपने दोस्तों के लिए मुशायरे आयोजित करते थे। उनके घर के बगल में एक बहुत ही रहस्यमयी महिला रहती है जो कभी दिखाई नहीं देती, लेकिन कभी-कभी देर रात को उसे गाते हुए सुना जा सकता है। एक बार मुंशी द्वारा आयोजित एक मुशायरे में रुसवा एक शेर पढ़ते हैं और बगल के दरवाजे से एक धीमी आवाज़ में आवाज़ आती है, "वाह! वाह!"। रहस्यमयी महिला रुसवा को अपने घर बुलाती है और पता चलता है की वह उमराव जान अदा है जिसे रुसवा कई सालों पहले मिले थे। उमराव जान अपनी कहानी रुसवा को अपनी कहानी सुनाती है।कहानी बन जाती है उर्दू का पहला उपन्यास- उमराव जान अदा।

I haven't yet said this, but my intention with this and the previous three recordings was a hopscotch survey of Pacific Coast soundscapes. To recollect now, these have been Yoakam Point on the Oregon Coast, Copalis Ghost Forest on the Washington Coast, Keahou on the Big Island of Hawaii and now Preston Island in Crescent City, on the Northern California Coast.This reflection on Preston Island leads me to ponder sites along the lower Columbia River at length, for reasons which will soon reveal themselves.Preston Island is weird. For starters, it's not what anyone would call an island. You can walk right out onto its strange rocky surface from the mainland. The view from the island is breathtaking though, and I thought it made a better album cover than the island itself: The island is relatively flat, but also boulder-strewn and cracked. When I visited, it was foggy, and I felt like I was on the surface of another planet. Something about it seemed unnatural:It all clicked when I found this historical photo:Preston Island was carted off. It was mined down to a nub. Let's get our bearings. Here's an 1880's Crescent City map, and a modern satellite photo. (I guess cardinal north pointing up wasn't yet the rule.)On the map you'll see Preston Island clearly drawn as a landmass, and Hall's Bluff, appearing much less prominently than it does today. I outlined the locations on the satellite image. Here, all the rock contained in those geographical features was mined and dumped in the ocean to create the jetty you see on the upper right of the satellite image. They really moved mountains.This is what Preston Island used to look like, and here it is today, courtesy of Google Street View:Our soundwalk takes us from West 5th Street in Crescent City, over to the beach and up over what's now called Half Butte, to about where this old photo of Hall's Bluff (aka Lover's Rock) was taken in 1876. Look at the tiny figures on top for a sense of scale:The massive Lover's Rock headland, was also carted off to build the jetty. It's harder to match the original photo vantage point with Street View, but it's also just completely gone. But let's get back to Preston Island, that weird scab-land of a place. Let's take a closer look at it, because it gives our soundwalk such unique character about 17 minutes in. At a glance, it seems lifeless. A green hue, coming from chalky veins in the rock, adds to the otherworldliness of the landscape.Tide pools form on the perimeter, among the cracks and fissures in the rock substrate. It's here that I place my recording hat down and the soundscape is instantly transformed. The skitter of crabs and the capillary clicking sounds of tiny shellfish erupt to fill the high frequencies, while the surf sound is attenuated by the topography of the rocks.It's another world. A 2021 article in the Bandon Western World states, “Preston Island has a long history in Crescent City. Originally Preston Peak, the area was a sacred site for the Tolowa Nation.” It is not well known, but the Tolowa were the subject of the most persistent and possibly worst massacres of Native Americans in the USA, starting in 1853, in the Crescent City area. Now, I couldn't corroborate the name “Preston Peak”, but I have to admit I was not surprised to hear that a sacred place to Native Americans was destroyed. There have been others.Pillar RockConsider Pillar Rock (briefly “Pilot Rock”) in the Columbia River. Once a monolith upwards of 75 feet tall, it was dynamited and flattened at the 25 foot level to install a navigation light:The Chinookan name for the monolith was Talapus. A cannery built nearby in 1877 used a likeness similar to Talapus for its canned salmon label, Pillar Rock brand. The rock was dynamited by 1922 when, according to the shipping news, a red navigation light was established. Like Talapus, the spring Chinook fishery in the Columbia was a diminished remnant of what it once was when Pillar Rock Cannery suspended operations in 1947.In a surprising epilogue Pillar Rock is still an actively used trade mark today, in 2025. The company now fishes the waters of Alaska for wild Sockeye to fill the modern day tins.It's remarkable how Euro-Americans changed the landscape and practically wiped out the fishery, but the brand is the thing that perseveres. What does it say about us that this is the way things are?Let's consider the intriguing story of Mount Coffin, up the Columbia River about 40 river miles.Mount CoffinThe geological feature that was first described to the historical record by Lieutenant William R. Broughton in 1792, and given the name “Mount Coffin”, was a Chinookan canoe burial ground. It would have appeared much the same a half century later, when Charles Wilkes visited in 1841, but quite different than the 1900 image above. Imagine, if you will, thousands of dugout cedar canoes perched in the trees on the prominent outcrop, about five feet above ground, in varying states of decay, all with bows pointed more or less toward the ocean. Within these canoes lay the interned bodies of Chinookans of the Skilloot tribe, wrapped in cedar blankets with their belongings placed beside them. That scene came to a swift end in 1841.The U.S. Exploring Expedition, led by Charles Wilkes, camped on Mount Coffin in 1841. When the men accidentally let a campfire spread, it destroyed an estimated 3,000 burial canoes. The Chinookan Indians were distressed to discover that their burial site had been destroyed by the negligence of whites and, according to visiting artist Paul Kane, “would no doubt have sought revenge had they felt themselves strong enough to do so.” (Stealing from The Dead, Oregon Historical Quarterly)Many Upper Chinookan villages were by 1841 entirely depopulated following devastating waves of malaria in the early 1830's, so Paul Kane's observation rings true.Within a century this lowland was completely transformed. The largest lumber mill in the world was built upriver from Mount Coffin.Mount Coffin was completely dynamited and quarried, beginning in 1929. The site is a now home to a chemical plant. Flat as a pancake.Finally let's consider the monolith in the heart of the Columbia Gorge that few realize barely escaped dynamite. So we are told…Beacon RockTo the natives it was Che-che-op-tin. When Lewis & Clark mapped the area in 1805 it was referred to as “Beaten Rock” and on return a year later “Beacon Rock”. Later, the 1841 Wilkes Exploring Expedition labelled it “Castle Rock”, which stuck for the better part of a century. Since 1916, it's been Beacon Rock.Just west of Beacon Rock was a large village Captain Lewis in 1806 called Wah-clel-lah (a Watlala winter village):This village appears to be the winter station of the Wah-clel-lahs and Clahclellars…14 houses remain entire but are at this time but thinly inhabited, nine others appear to have been lately removed, and the traces of ten or twelve others of ancient date were to be seen in the rear of their present village. There was also another village at the very foot of beacon rock. Traces of it remained visible to the trained eye into the 1950's.“BIG BLAST WILL WRECK IT”“Castle Rock to Go” and “Whole Rock is Doomed” read the subheadings in a March 16th, 1906 article in The Oregonian. The article outlined how the owners, a coterie of eight businessmen including Dan Kerns, acting as the Columbia Construction Company, had already cut three 20 to 30 ft. tunnels under the southern aspect of the monolith in preparations to dynamite “the shoulder” of the rock and quarry the stone for building material, eventually removing it entirely. A Wikipedia entry states (without citation), “The United States Army Corps of Engineers planned to destroy the rock to supply material for the jetty at the mouth of the Columbia.” This appears to be incorrect. The Army Corps didn't have that plan. The Columbia Construction Company purported to have a plan to mine an initial two million tons for building material (possibly to include jetty material—there were no contracts) in 1906. Columbia jetty work began 20 years prior to that. The Columbia Construction Company was taken to court, and a jury sided with Portland & Seattle Railway, who argued the tunnels were part of an elaborate ruse to “claim damages from $100,000 to $500,000” from lost mining activity due to the rail line going through their intended quarry site. According to the plaintiffs, it was just a scheme to get the railway to pay dearly for the right of way. The jurors dashed that plan, stipulating a $5000 settlement. Was it an elaborate ruse? Or was the jury predisposed not to trust city businessmen? What was clear, according to The Oregonian, was that, “clergymen, leading citizens, women, teachers, and all classes in Portland and throughout the state were horrified as the proposed destruction of such a majestic landmark.” “I should judge Castle Rock contains 10 million tons of first class building stone,” Kerns said in 1906. Interestingly, that wouldn't have been enough for the massive Columbia jetty system, which ultimately required 13 million tons of rock, when competed in 1939, after half century of construction. Henry J. Biddle took ownership of Beacon Rock from the Columbia Construction Company in 1915, under the condition it would be preserved, and set about realizing his dream to build a trail to the summit.Henry J. Biddle purchased the rock in 1915 for $1 and during the next three years constructed a trail with 51 switchbacks, handrails and bridges. The three-quarter mile trail to the top, completed in April 1918, leads to views in all directions. (Wikipedia)Thanks for listening and reading. I'm thankful for your attention.

For my 2025 kickoff of Insider Interviews marketing luminaries Lou Paskalis and David Sable joined me for one of the most candid conversations on the media and ad world for an incredibly candid conversation on the media and ad world that cuts through what David famously coined as "digibabble" years ago. We moved from their personal passions (don't get David started on The Doors!) to how advertising evolved in the tech era... to its future, jam packed with opinions based on their decades of award-winning experience. (Lou, who previously ran global marketing at a couple of small brands you may have heard of, like Bank of America, American Express, and where I first met him, E.J. Gallo, is now the strategic mind behind news assessor Ad Fontes Media, The street cred of David - a top voice on LinkedIn, thanks in part to his terrific blog, "Imagine," stems from being former global CEO/Chairman of Y&R (now VMLY&R) and board member for a ton of big companies like American Eagle and Ethan Allen. He is now Vice-Chairman at the forward-thinking mid-size holdco, Stagwell, where Lou is also an advisor, I discovered!) What informs a lot of the conversation is David's explanation of how Stagwell flipped the traditional agency model on its head: Instead of buying up creative agencies, founder Mark Penn premise to build around tech."... We began by buying tech, aggregating tech and creating a tech platform. Then we went out and wrote in the creative pieces of business." But as David emphasized, "Tech leads the way for everything. But our model, which is the model that's working the best, is that tech is an enabler: Our job is to tell stories and to tell them well." Stories - and art itself, even using the most sophisticated tech and AI - is only a result of the information fed to it. David shares a beautiful analogy about what a Monet envisioned using different brushstrokes on, say, Water Lillies. We have to inform our models to consider "impressionism," just as we have to provide data for use. He says, "Data is a picture of what happened before. That's it. Now, I can interpret it, I can use it, I can I can create algorithms or models, but at the end of the day, data is a picture of what was. It can predict, and AI is going to be better at that, but that's all it is. So it's only as good as the data that it has." And don't get him started on OMNICHANNEL as a buzzword, either. The through line of this episode is to appeal to and follow the consumer. Not jam tech terms or "digibabble" down their throats. Unsurprisingly, Lou agrees, comparing ineffective presentations to Charlie Brown hearing his teacher: "Wah wah. Wah wah. Digital." His point when pitching the CFO could also apply to the consumer: "If you don't contextualize everything into the growth agenda, you might as well not go to the meetings. They don't care what we do, they care how what we do achieves growth." Be human, even in an AI world. That applies to retail, to advertising and, as we learn, the news media. The Future of News Perhaps most compelling was our discussion about the critical importance of news. Insider Interviews followers know this is a clarion call for Lou, which he focused on in his first appearance here last year. Now, backed by Stagwell's staggering study of 50,000 people, Lou shared a startling insight: "The ROI, or return on advertising -- ROAS, on news is higher than any other content vertical you can buy." Marketers are missing out on if they are "news-averse," based on some misguided perceptions about "brand suitability." "11% are self-identified as news junkies who only read or watch the news when they're consuming media. That's 11% more business for any marketer in America in 2025 who will achieve the growth agenda and win by reaching these very influential people." (To learn more, all Insider Interviews fans who are publishers are invited to apply to attend Stagwell's Future of News next meeting at 1WTC on January 2...

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 24, 2024 is: wassail • WAH-sul • verb To wassail is to sing carols (popular songs or ballads of religious joy) from house to house at Christmas; the verb is usually used in the phrase "go wassailing." As a noun, wassail can refer to (among other things) a hot drink that is made with wine, beer, or cider, as well as spices, sugar, and usually baked apples. Wassail is traditionally served in a large bowl especially at Christmastime. // Every year at Christmastime the magazine publishes a recipe for the traditional drink served to those who go wassailing and may appear at one's doorstep. See the entry > Examples: "As early as the 13th century, people in England would travel between houses to go wassailing and wish their neighbors well during the winter months." — The Cedar County (Missouri) Republican & Stockton Journal, 20 Dec. 2023 Did you know? This season, you might hear (or sing) the Christmas carol that begins, "Here we come a-wassailing / among the leaves so green." As is holiday tradition, you will wonder: what in the world is "a-wassailing?" In fact, wassailing is an old custom that goes back to the 1300s. The verb wassail comes from the noun wassail, which dates to the 1200s and was first used to refer to an Old English custom of hospitality. In medieval England, a courteous host would offer a cup to a guest and toast them with the salutation wæs hæil, or "be in good health." The guest would accept the cup and respond with drinc hæil, "drink in good health." Soon, wassail was also being applied to the party at which the wassail was offered, as well as the actual drink passed around. By the 1400s, it was used to refer specifically to a drink served at Christmastime. As the drink became associated with yuletide, wassailing itself changed. The meaning of the verb wassail as it shows up in the carol refers to going around, caroling, and wishing those you visit good health and holiday cheer.

Brenda McMorrow discusses mantra music and medicine songs. Brenda McMorrow is a Canadian Devotional Chant artist who is known for her unique and warmly embracing style of mantra music, in which she blends elements of acoustic folk, world rhythms, and ancient Indian chants with a sweetly introspective singer-songwriter's sensibility. Yoga Journal describes Brenda as having “a knack for expressing the deepest realizations in the sparsest lyrics”.  As spiritual teacher Ram Dass has said: “Brenda has a gift”, and her music has been touching people's hearts worldwide.Originally a folk/pop singer/songwriter, it was when Brenda participated in her first Sanskrit chant while attending a Yoga workshop in 2004, that she had a profound knowing her musical journey was leading her to places more expansive and heart-opening than she had ever imagined. Brenda remembers: “It was a very simple chant (Om Namah Shivaya), and at the time I had no idea what it signified: all I knew was that every cell in my body started vibrating, and I felt absolute joy”. While in India soon thereafter, Brenda began combining her own songwriting with ancient Sanskrit chants – and she has been flowing with this divine wave of Bhakti energy ever since. With 5 celebrated devotional chant albums, Brenda is a featured artist on White Swan Records, a Colorado label.. She has shared festival stages with Krishna Das and Snatam Kaur; has been accompanied by Grammy award winning cellist David Darling; has been a guest musician with esteemed Kirtan musicians Jai Uttal, Wah!, David Newman, Girish, Mirabai Ceiba, Jai Jagdeesh, Shantala and Dave Stringer; and has been invited to Bhakti Yoga festivals and events across North America, Europe and Asia.
