Podcasts about Wearing

Singapore's temperatures keep climbing, but office dress codes haven't changed nearly as much. As more workplaces embrace flexibility, is it finally time to accept shorts at work? Or does professional attire still matter, regardless of the weather?

Friday Juma KhutbaFriday July 31st, 2026Arba'in is only days away, and the Ahlul Bayt (a) placed extraordinary emphasis on the ziyarah of Imam Husayn (a) throughout the year, especially on Arba'in.Imam Hasan al-Askari (a) described five defining signs of a true Shi'a, highlighting both worship and religious identity.The first sign, praying 51 rak'ahs daily, encourages believers to go beyond obligatory acts and embrace recommended worship.Even with modern lifestyles, believers should gradually build habits such as nawafil, shorter recommended prayers, and Salat al-Layl.Wearing a ring on the right hand reflects the Sunnah of the Prophet (s) and serves as a visible expression of Islamic identity.Historical evidence shows some Sunni jurists reversed the Prophet's practice after it became associated with the Shi'a, raising the question of who truly preserved the Sunnah.Reciting the Basmalah aloud is another sign of following the practice of the Prophet (s) and the teachings of the Ahlul Bayt (a).Imam Ali's (a) commitment to reciting the Basmalah aloud was even acknowledged by prominent Sunni scholars as a source of guidance.Two of the five signs are directly connected to Imam Husayn (a): prostrating on natural earth and performing the Arba'in ziyarah.Sajdah on earth reflects the practice of the Prophet (s), and the Imams later recommended using the turbah of Karbala because of its unique spiritual significance.Imam al-Sadiq (a) taught that prostrating on the turbah of Imam Husayn (a) carries immense spiritual merit.Imam Hasan al-Askari (a) emphasized Arba'in ziyarah as the community approached the Occultation, ensuring Imam Husayn (a) remained central to Shi'a identity.Despite attempts by rulers like Mutawakkil and later Saddam Hussein to erase Karbala and stop pilgrims, their efforts ultimately failed.The more tyrants tried to suppress the pilgrimage to Karbala, the stronger and larger it became.The millions who walk from Najaf to Karbala each year demonstrate that the message of Imam Husayn (a) continues to outlive every oppressor.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

Are people who wear smart glasses creeps and weirdos—or are critics overlooking how blind people use this technology? In episode 300 of iCantCU, I respond to the growing backlash against Ray-Ban Meta and other camera-equipped smart glasses. While some people misuse the technology, blind and low-vision users rely on it to read signs, locate exits and restrooms, identify objects, and navigate unfamiliar airports, hotels, and convention spaces. I also recap my trip to Austin for the National Federation of the Blind National Convention. I talk about working the NFB of Pennsylvania exhibit table, selling chocolate-covered pretzels and handmade shawls, sampling Austin's food, waiting unsuccessfully for the Congress Avenue Bridge bats, and buying a FEELDOM backpack. Finally, I share an honest update on Ziggy as he approaches the end of his final chemotherapy round and discuss the difficult logistics our family will face when Liz returns to school.

Jon Gustin is the founder of Tired Dad, a community of more than 2 million followers built on one honest premise: parenting is only hard for good parents. A former personal trainer of 14 years who started making short videos during the sleepless newborn stretch of 2020, he became one of the first men online talking openly about the mental load of fatherhood. He co-hosts the Tired Dad and Tired Mom podcasts with his wife Jessica and released his book The Tired Dad: 100 Reflections on Showing Up for What Matters Most in May. Larry and Jon get into the exhaustion that comes from doing the work right, both of their fathers coming home from Vietnam unable to talk about it, the rebellion and loss that followed Jon's parents' divorce, and the ego death that pulled his marriage out of the roommate phase. If you're tired in the best way possible and still wondering whether you're doing a good job, this conversation is for you.   Timeline Summary [1:02] – Parenting is only hard for good parents, and why tired means invested [3:19] – Tired from parenting, not tired of parenting [6:23] – How the newborn stretch of 2020 accidentally birthed Tired Dad [8:10] – Nobody was talking about the mental load of fatherhood, so Jon did [12:16] – The Justin Gustin problem and Larry's own Hagman mixup [13:29] – Full introduction: 2 million followers, two podcasts, and the book [16:54] – Growing up the baby of the family with siblings seven and eight years older [20:18] – A Vietnam veteran father, a World War Two grandfather, and night terrors that never left [21:55] – Watching your dad go from Superman to human during the divorce [26:38] – Running from it: partying, drugs, theft, and total chaos at 14 [28:26] – Losing friends to overdoses and deciding to get out [29:48] – Moving to Tennessee, meeting Jessica, and marrying 11 months later [34:08] – The Gottman research and why only 12% of marriages truly thrive [36:27] – Marry the right person for the right reasons, because marriage fixes nothing [37:59] – Postpartum, the roommate phase, and the darkest stretch of their marriage [40:56] – Killing the ego and why keeping score breeds resentment [43:48] – Getting sober three and a half years ago and what changed [46:42] – Ego death without becoming a doormat or a nice guy [48:55] – Eliminate the guessing and learn what your wife actually needs [52:42] – Inside the book: the weight fathers carry and the mantra to keep showing up [54:47] – Wearing exhaustion as a badge of honor versus being the healed version of you [57:18] – Legacy, being a home worth coming back to, and the 3am call   5 Key Takeaways Tired Means You're Doing It Right — If parenting feels hard and exhausting, that's evidence you care enough to invest in it. You're tired from the work, not of it. Marriage Fixes Nothing — Your partner isn't responsible for healing your wounds and you aren't responsible for healing theirs. Two people can both do their own work and build something great, but expecting rescue guarantees misery. The Ego Is a Heavy Backpack — Keeping score is the breeding ground for resentment. Dropping the ego means asking how you can help the situation, not tallying what you're not getting. Ego Death Is Not Becoming a Doormat — Killing the ego doesn't mean happy wife, happy life, or becoming a yes man. It means eliminating the guessing, expressing your own needs clearly, and understanding hers. Be the Healed Version, Not the Broken One — Carrying exhaustion proudly while running on empty leaves you injured at the end of the road. The goal is showing up tired but well, in shape for the job.   Links & Resources Episode page and all links: https://thedadedge.com/1508 Join the Dad Edge Alliance (July promo: signed book, two courses, 50 conversation starters): https://thedadedge.com/join Dad Edge Boardroom Goal Setting Intensive (July 31, 8am central): https://thedadedge.com/goals The Tired Dad: 100 Reflections on Showing Up for What Matters Most by Jon Gustin: available wherever books are sold Tired Dad website: https://tireddad.com   Enjoyed This Episode?

07/24 Hour 2: Brandon Aiyuk Has Purchased A Mansion In NOVA - 1:00 Is Brandon Aiyuk Changing Everyone's Mind - 17:00 You Won't Believe What Men Are Wearing To Work - 30:00

Ken and Anthony dig into the Guardians' frustrating 12-inning loss to Minnesota, debating whether Steven Vogt's decision to have Patrick Bailey bunt cost them the game or whether the blame belongs squarely on a lineup that managed just three hits. Owen chimes in on the logic of not using Austin Hedges as a pinch-hitter, and the guys agree the team has overcome a thin offense all year to stay in playoff position. The conversation pivots to Brian Windhorst's ESPN comments on LeBron James' free agency, with Ken admitting he's exhausted by the endless speculation and drawing heat from staff for saying so on air.

The Shulhan Aruch (91:5) brings the opinion among the Rishonim that it is forbidden to recite a Beracha with one's head uncovered. Others, however, including the Maharshal (Rav Shlomo Luria, Poland, 1510-1573), ruled leniently, and maintained that it is technically permissible to recite a Beracha bareheaded. Some drew proof to this opinion from the Gemara's listing of the morning blessings, which, it appears, were recited in Talmudic times not all together (as we recite them today), but as one experienced each phenomenon – such as reciting "Poke'ah Ivrim" upon opening one'is eyes, "Zokef Kefufim" when standing out of bed, and so on. One of the blessings on this list is "Oter Yisrael Be'Tifara," which one recites when covering his head – seemingly indicating that the previous blessings were recited bareheaded, before the head-covering was placed. Hacham Ovadia Yosef noted that the Shulhan Aruch himself appears to contradict his stringent ruling. The Hida (Rav Haim Yosef David Azulai, 1724-1806) claims that the Shulhan Aruch did not definitively forbid reciting a Beracha bareheaded, as he merely mentions that there were those who maintained this opinion. In light of all of this, Hacham Ovadia concluded that although one should certainly abide by the stringent view and wear a Kippa whenever he recites a Beracha or prays, after the fact, if one prayed or recited a Beracha bareheaded, he does not need to repeat the prayer or Beracha. Thus, for example, if someone prayed alone at home (where there was nobody to point out to him that he was bareheaded), and afterward he realized that he was not wearing a Kippa, he does not need to repeat the prayer. This was also the position of Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Jerusalem, 1910-1995). Rav Moshe Feinstein (1895-1986) ruled stringently in this regard, maintaining that a prayer recited bareheaded is unacceptable and must therefore be repeated with a head-covering. This is not, however, the consensus opinion. An interesting question arises in the case of a person who hears thunder or sees lightening while bareheaded. Halacha requires reciting the Beracha "She'koho U'gburato Maleh Olam" upon hearing thunder, and the Beracha "Oseh Ma'aseh Bereshit" upon seeing lightening. Our custom, based on the Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909), is to recite these Berachot without the Name of Hashem (omitting the words "Hashem Elokenu Melech Ha'olam"). The Ben Ish Hai reasoned that since the Beracha needs to be recited within a second or two of hearing the thunder or seeing the lightening, one is very likely to miss the time for its recitation, and if he recites it after the time, his blessing would constitute a Beracha Le'batala (blessing recited in vain). It is therefore preferable as a measure of caution to always recite these Berachot without Hashem's Name. Hacham Ovadia Yosef, however, disagreed, and maintained that one should make an effort to recite the Beracha immediately after hearing thunder or seeing lightening, and recite the entire text of the Beracha. If a person hears thunder or sees lightening while he is bareheaded, he will likely miss the time for reciting the Beracha if he first puts on his Kippa. Hacham Ovadia ruled that in such a case, one may rely on the opinion that permits reciting a Beracha bareheaded, in order not to lose the opportunity to recite a Beracha. Preferably, though, one should put his hand on his head when reciting the Beracha, because there is a view among the Poskim that one's own hand qualifies as a head-covering. Although Halacha does not follow that view, it is preferable to use one's hand as a head-covering if he does not have the opportunity to put on a Kippa. As mentioned, however, our practice is to recite these Berachot without Hashem's Name, in which case it is certainly acceptable to recite them before putting on a Kippa. Summary: If one realized after praying that his head was bare during his prayer, the prayer is nevertheless valid and does not need to be repeated.

In hour 3, Mark is joined by Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe. They discuss the Missouri Primary Ballot issues including Amendments 4 and 5. Mark is later joined by Tim Sommer, a Music Journalist, Former Record Executive and a Contributor to The Rock and Roll Globe. They discuss his new book that is about to release, "Dispatches From the Kingdom of Outsiders: Writing on Music, Culture, and More - 1979-2025". They wrap up the show with the Audio Cut of the Day.

Rav Moshe Feinstein (1895-1986) addressed the situation of a man who scheduled a job interview and felt that he stood a better chance of receiving the job if he showed up without a Kippa. Is it permissible for a person to remove his Kippa for the interview in this case if there was a reasonable concern of possibly forfeiting a job opportunity? Rav Moshe noted the Halacha that sets limits on how much a person is required to spend for the sake of fulfilling Misvot. When it comes to avoiding the transgression of a Misvat Lo Ta'aseh (Biblical prohibition), there is no such limit; a person must be prepared to lose all his money to avoid violating a prohibition. However, when it comes to a Misvat Aseh (affirmative command), one is not required to incur a significant financial loss for the sake of fulfilling the command. Therefore, even if we assume that wearing a Kippa has now been accepted as an obligatory practice, and is no longer observed merely as a Midat Hassidut (measure of piety), it certainly does not carry more weight than a Biblical command, and so one may remove a Kippa to avoid a substantial financial loss. Clearly, missing a job opportunity is a very substantial financial loss, and so the fellow in this situation would certainly be permitted to remove his Kippa before the interview. The Yalkut Yosef similarly ruled that it is permissible to go bareheaded at work if one fears losing his job if he keeps his Kippa on. The Shebut Yaakob (Rav Yaakov Reischer, 1661-1733) was asked about a case where a high-ranking government official was visiting a synagogue, and the local protocol required everyone to remove their head-coverings as a display of honor. Given the necessity of showing respect to the official, the Shebut Yaakob permitted the people to remove their Kippot, even in the synagogue. Nevertheless, the Hida (Rav Haim Yosef David Azulai, 1724-1806) writes that it would be preferable for the community leaders to speak to the official's handlers ahead of time to explain that Jewish custom requires wearing a head-covering, so the people would not need to remove their Kippot. A more unusual question that once came to Rav Moshe Feinstein involved an otherwise observant fellow who decided to succumb to his urge to go see a movie in a theater. He posed the question of whether he can remove his Kippa in order to avoid creating a Hilul Hashem (defamation of G-d's Name) by people seeing Torah Jew in the movie theater. Rav Moshe strictly forbade removing one's Kippa in such a case, asserting that this would be adding a second sin on top of the sin of going somewhere inappropriate. Although the questioner claimed that he wished to remove his Kippa "Le'Shem Shamayim" – for G-d, so-to-speak, in the interest of protecting His honor, Rav Moshe said that this claim cannot be taken be seriously, and it is implausible that he wishes to remove his Kippa for altruistic motives. Therefore, there was no justification for removing the Kippa.

Ken lays out why the three-week LeBron decision saga has him ready to move on, arguing this isn't 2014 and the Cavs are still a good team with or without him. He and Anthony debate whether fans should temper championship expectations given LeBron's age, and Ken pushes back on criticism that he doesn't care by pointing out he's just tired of nothing new being said. The two also dig into the Heat's leaked press conference link, guessing it's likely a staffer's mistake rather than a real signal, and pivot to fresher storylines like the Browns' quarterback battle.

Cosplay began as something gloriously handmade: fans turning up in costumes because they loved a story enough to carry it into the room.But somewhere between the early science fiction masquerades, Star Wars armour builds, convention photo galleries, viral cosplay, professional creators and the rise of organisations like the 501st Legion, something shifted.The costume was no longer just a costume.It became proof that a franchise mattered.In this episode of Geekstorians, Dave looks at how cosplay grew from fan-made performance into one of the most visible forms of franchise culture, and how the work fans do for love became increasingly useful to the companies standing nearby.Not because anyone sent a memo.Because fandom built something too powerful to ignore.For more geeky news, reviews, interviews, and air dates, head to Geektown.co.uk.

Charles Spicer recounts how, at the Nuremberg trials, Ribbentrop tried to use his pre-war Fellowship efforts as a defense, claiming he had always worked for peace. Göring remained unrepentant, while Hess insisted on wearing his flying boots in the witness box. Spicer notes that after the war, Vansittart and the Foreign Office obscured their connections to the German resistance to avoid admitting that more energetic diplomacy might have prevented the conflict. The Oster Conspiracy of 1938 is highlighted as a more effective, though overlooked, opportunity than the famous 1944 bomb plot, as Hitler's grip on power was not yet absolute during the earlier crisis.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Friday!!! We recorded this episode the night before heading out to DC and instead of our usual, we decided to do a little game: we picked a bunch of parenting hot takes & "would you rather" questions to answer rapid-fire, and yes we were all a little slap happy LOL. PSA UPFRONT: we talk about Santa in this episode around 20 minutes in… please do not listen in front of your kids!!! OK let's get into it: A few we cannot stop thinking about: is it ever OK to lie to your kids?! (Santa, tooth fairy, "the iPad only exists on the airplane" lies…), are iPads the modern day cigarette?! (YES), should schools ban birthday treats?! (no), should toddlers actually be expected to share?! (yes!!!), and the great household debate: shoes on or shoes off in the house?! (Harrison is CANADIAN and yet still on Team Shoes On somehow??). Plus, we get into some wild parenting advice from the 1930s-1960s (mothers were told don't breastfeed if you're angry?! Doctors recommended cigarettes during pregnancy?! Don't hug your baby too much or you'll create a tyrant??) that made us wonder what advice we're getting today that we'll think is crazy in 100 years. Plus, pacifiers after age 2 (yes or no?), and the true or false round: is the second kid actually rules-free? Was parenting easier before Instagram? Do parents secretly love when plans get canceled? And of course, Harrison walks us through 100 years of stock market data to kick things off (cliffhanger from last ep!! lol)… 30,000 stocks analyzed over 100 years, and only 27.6% outperformed the market. His case for index funds continues!!

Every answer an AI gives you sounds equally confident, whether it's true or completely made up. That's not a bug. It's how the technology was built. Dan Klein is CTO and co-founder of Scaled Cognition, and a professor of computer science at UC Berkeley. In this conversation with Liam, Dan breaks down what a language model actually is, why it was never designed to know the truth in the first place, and why today's AI systems have no "smells," the subtle warning signs humans usually rely on to tell good information from bad. They get into why reinforcement learning from human feedback quietly trains models to tell people what they want to hear, how that can tip into outright deception, and why Dan believes reliability, not raw intelligence, is the biggest unsolved problem in AI today. Key Topics Covered: What a language model actually does at its core: next token prediction Why LLMs are plausibility engines, not truth engines The difference between a hallucination and a lie Why AI mistakes have no warning signs the way bad translations or sketchy websites do How RLHF can train models to be sycophantic instead of accurate The "package delivery" thought experiment: when reward signals diverge from truth Why bolting reliability onto LLMs after the fact doesn't work How Scaled Cognition architects models around verified actions instead of raw text generation Why bigger models aren't automatically better models The difference between disruptive technology and scaled technology Why startups, not incumbents, tend to drive technical breakthroughs What metacognition is and why today's AI systems don't have it Why Dan believes reliability is the next major frontier in AI Episode Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:15 What a language model actually is 06:31 From well-formed sentences to general knowledge 08:27 Why LLMs are plausibility engines, not truth engines 12:06 How Perplexity approaches verifiable answers 12:40 Dan's background and Scaled Cognition's mission 15:16 The two anti-patterns companies use to control LLMs today 21:16 How Scaled Cognition architects models differently 23:28 Does every client need a custom-trained model? 29:12 Why prompting alone can't guarantee reliability 30:55 Modularity, contracts, and building reliable systems 34:40 Why trust and digital literacy matter beyond the enterprise 39:12 Code smells and why AI mistakes have no warning signs 41:14 Are AI companies incentivized to tell the truth? 42:55 How reinforcement learning actually works 44:35 The package delivery thought experiment 48:44 Why models are trained to be sycophantic 51:01 Where this incentive is mechanically baked into the model 53:43 Does responsibility fall back on humans? 58:10 Just be more reliable than a human, not perfectly true 1:02:59 The last major technique shift in AI 1:10:55 Why frontier labs keep scaling despite the risk of disruption 1:17:15 The future of hyper-specialized models vs. one broad model 1:19:47 Is there anything uniquely human AI can't replicate? 1:25:45 Wearing three hats: professor, researcher, and CTO 1:29:47 Why Dan does what he does Connect with Dan on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-klein/ Partner Links Upgrade your AI toolkit: https://www.theaireport.ai/ai-executive-pass Subscribe to our free newsletter: https://newsletter.theaireport.ai/subscribe Join the community: https://community.theaireport.ai/checkout/the-ai-report-welcome-gift?coupon_code=WRTH Learn more about your ad choices.

Popular HYBE Idol Sparks Shock By Seemingly Wearing No Underwear During Concert

When she married her husband and moved into his house, she never expected anything unusual. At first, the strange moments were easy to dismiss—unexplained crashes from the attic, odd sounds, and little things that didn't quite make sense.Then one morning everything changed.She woke to the familiar sound of heavy footsteps pacing through the kitchen and assumed her husband was getting ready for work. But as she became more awake, one detail stopped her cold.He'd already left the house.With her cats silently staring toward the kitchen, she listened as the footsteps continued... until they suddenly stopped altogether. Years later, it's still the experience she can't explain.#RealGhostStory #HauntedHouse #GhostFootsteps #Paranormal #MrBoots #GhostEncounter #Unexplained #HauntedHome #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalExperienceLove real ghost stories?

As we have seen, even if wearing a Kippa cannot be defined as an outright Halachic obligation (except while praying, reciting Berachot, and eating), it is proper to ensure not to walk four Amot (cubits) with one's head uncovered. It is considered a special act of piety to avoid walking even shorter distances without a Kippa. The Maharshal (Rav Shlomo Luria, Poland, 1510-1573), surprisingly, writes that this entire concept applies only outdoors. Indoors, he writes, there is no need to wear a Kippa – even as a measure of piety – because there is a roof over one's head, and this suffices to remind him of G-d. Most later Poskim, however, including the Mishna Berura, disagreed, and maintained that one should wear a Kippa both outdoors and indoors. Is it recommended to wear a Kippa even while sleeping? From the Rambam's comments it appears, at least at first glance, that he assumed people did not wear a head-covering while sleeping. The Rambam ruled that the Birkot Ha'shahar – the series of morning blessings which we recite praising Hashem for certain phenomena we experience each morning – are recited only as we experience each phenomenon. For example, when one hears the crowing of the rooster, he recites "Ha'noten La'sechvi Bina…"; when one opens his eyes, he recites "Poke'ah Ivrim"; when one stands up from his bed, he recites, "Zokef Kefufim"; and so on. Toward the end of this sequential list of blessings, the Rambam mentions that upon putting on one's head-covering, he recites "Oter Yisrael Be'tifara." The Rambam seems to presume that people's heads were uncovered at night, and only in the morning they put on a covering. However, Rav Yisrael Bitan noted that the Rambam may have assumed that people slept with a small covering – like a Kippa – and then recited this Beracha when putting on their turban or larger hat. In any event, the Mishna Berura and others bring the teaching of the Shela (Rav Yeshaya Ha'levi Horowitz, d. 1630) that it is proper to sleep with a head-covering, though it seems clear that this was intended as a special measure of piety, and is not required. As a practical matter, it is very difficult to keep a Kippa on one's head during the night, and oftentimes it becomes difficult to find it in the morning. Certainly, if a man would end up waking up his wife early in the morning as he searches for Kippa, then he should not sleep with a Kippa. Some people avoid this problem by sleeping with a special hat that stays fastened on the head throughout the night. While this is commendable, it is certainly not required. Summary: One should wear a Kippa both indoors and outdoors. Some sources mention that one should sleep with a Kippa as a measure of special piety, though this is not required, especially given the practical difficulty entailed, though there are those who sleep with a cap that remains fastened on the head throughout the night.

Catherine Breed is an endurance athlete, ocean explorer, and visionary storyteller redefining what modern adventure can look like — where human performance, environmental connection, and community impact meet. Drawn to the water from an early age, Catherine's journey began in elite competitive swimming, representing UC Berkeley and the U.S. National Team. Years of disciplined training shaped her understanding of resilience and focus, but her true evolution began when she stepped beyond the structure of the pool and into the vast unpredictability of open water. In 2016, Catherine found her home within San Francisco's historic open-water swimming community at the Dolphin Club, where cold water, powerful tides, and a culture of bold exploration challenged her to redefine limits. Surrounded by legendary swimmers and lifelong adventurers, she began pursuing ambitious endurance swims that transformed swimming from competition into exploration — and ultimately into a platform for storytelling and impact. From this transition emerged a guiding philosophy: Beyond the Blackline — a mindset rooted in stepping beyond certainty, embracing discomfort, and forging new paths without predefined boundaries. What began as a personal journey evolved into a broader vision: using human-powered adventure as a catalyst for connection — between people, between communities, and between humanity and the ocean. Today, Catherine's work extends far beyond individual achievement. She is the founder of purpose-driven initiatives that combine endurance sport, storytelling, and ocean advocacy to inspire meaningful engagement with the natural world. Her projects invite audiences to rethink what is possible — not only physically, but emotionally and collectively — demonstrating how bold goals can spark curiosity, resilience, and environmental stewardship. At the heart of her mission is a belief that access to the ocean should be inclusive and transformative. Catherine advocates for greater equity and representation in ocean spaces, particularly for women and underrepresented communities, while championing the protection of marine ecosystems through experiential storytelling and community engagement. As a speaker, expedition leader, and storyteller, Catherine brings audiences into the raw realities of exploration — the uncertainty, the risk, and the profound clarity found when we step beyond familiar boundaries. Her work challenges conventional ideas of endurance, shifting the focus from records alone toward purpose-driven adventure that leaves lasting impact. Going beyond the black line was never just about swimming. It was about choosing a life guided by curiosity, courage, and connection — and creating pathways for others to do the same. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

The Gemara in Masechet Kiddushin (31a) tells that Rav Huna son of Rav Yehoshua made a point of always keeping his head covered, and he explained that since the Shechina hovered over his head at all times, it is appropriate to cover one's head as a sign of respect. This same Rav Huna is cited elsewhere (Shabbat 118b) as saying that he was worthy of reward for ensuring never to walk four Amot (cubits) with his hair uncovered. In a different context (Shabbat 156b), the Gemara teaches that wearing a hair-covering helps engender Yir'at Shamayim (fear of Heaven) and thus prevent us from sin. It tells that a woman was warned by astrologers that her infant son would be a thief as an adult. She understood this to mean that the boy was born with a natural inclination toward theft. In an effort to avoid this outcome, she saw to it that the child's head would always remain covered, so he would be cognizant of Hashem's presence at all times and thus stay away from sin. In addition, she fervently prayed to G-d that he would be righteous. Once, the Gemara says, when this boy was still a child, he was sitting beneath somebody's palm tree learning Torah, and his head covering blew off. He looked up and saw a cluster of luscious dates. Enticed, he ate the dates, which were somebody's private property – showing how a head covering helps protect a person from the Yeser Ha'ra (evil inclination). (Thanks to his mother's efforts, though, this boy grew to become Rav Nahman Bar Yishak, one of the great Sages of the Talmud.) Similarly, the Zohar (Balak 187a) teaches that one must avoid walking more than four Amot with his head uncovered, because the Shechina hovers over his head. The Zohar adds that this concept is alluded to in the verse in Kohelet (9:8), "Ve'shemen Al Roshecha al Yehsar" – "Oil shall not be lacking upon your head." The Shechina (divine presence) is compared to fire, and Misvot are the "oil," the fuel that sustains its presence in our lives. Covering our heads brings us Yir'at Shamayim so that we remain loyal to G-d's commands. The Zohar reiterates this point later (Pinhas 245b), citing the verse, "Melo Kol Ha'aretz Kebodo" (Yeshayahu 6:3) – G-d's glory fills the entire earth. We acknowledge and give honor to His presence by wearing a head covering. The Rambam, too, in his Guide for the Perplexed (3:52), emphasizes that the great Sages always ensured to cover their heads out of respect for the divine presence. However, as we know, there are many otherwise observant Jews (especially in our community) who do not wear a Kippa all the time. They make a point of wearing a Kippa when they enter the synagogue, but not throughout the day when they go about their ordinary affairs. Is this acceptable, or are these individuals failing to fulfill a Halachic obligation? This question depends on whether we regard head-covering as a strict Halachic requirement, or as a Middat Hasidut – a recommended measure of piety. The Maharam of Rothenberg (Germany, c. 1215-1293), cited by the Orhot Haim and Kolbo, maintained that Halacha does not forbid going about bareheaded, and the Sages who ensured to have their heads covered did so as a Middat Hasidut. This is also the clear implication of the Rambam, in the passage cited earlier, where he mentions that great Rabbis made a point of covering their heads – indicating that this is a recommended measure of piety, and not a binding Halachic obligation. The Maharshal (Rav Shlomo Luria, Poland, 1510-1573) drew proof to this view from a passage in the Midrash which emphasizes how Hashem deals with us far more kindly than mortal kings deal with their subjects. Normally, the Midrash comments, when a king's messenger reads to the masses a written royal decree, everyone is expected to stand, remove their hats, and listen with fear and trepidation. But when we read the Shema in fulfillment of G-d's decree, we are not required to stand and remove our head coverings. The Midrash here clearly implies that there would be nothing wrong with baring our heads – even for the recitation of Shema. The Shebut Yaakov (Rav Yaakov Reischer, 1661-1733) refutes this proof, noting that the Midrash later observes that Hashem does not demand that we hunt wild animals to bring them as sacrifices, but rather commands that we offer as sacrifices domesticated animals, which do not need to be hunted. Clearly, this does not mean that it would be acceptable to offer wild animals as sacrifices. By the same token, we cannot necessarily deduce from the Midrash that it is acceptable to recite Shema with our heads uncovered. Maran (Rav Yosef Caro, author of the Shulhan Aruch), in Bet Yosef (91), brings the aforementioned opinion of the Maharam of Rothenberg, that covering one's head is not strictly required, indicating that he concurred with this view. Elsewhere in Bet Yosef (46), however, Maran appears to imply otherwise. In discussing the blessing recited each morning, "Oter Yisrael Be'tif'ara" ("He who crowns Israel with splendor"), Maran explains that we are "crowned" in the sense that we, unlike other nations, are required to cover our heads. Maran adds that even those who maintain that this is not strictly required, agree that it is recommended as an act of piety. Here Maran clearly sides with the opinion that head-covering constitutes an outright Halachic obligation. Regardless, the Hida (Rav Haim Yosef David Azulai, 1724-1806) noted that in the Shulhan Aruch, Maran takes the position that covering one's head is recommended but not strictly required. In Siman 2, the Shulhan Aruch writes that "it is forbidden" to walk about "Be'koma Zekufa" – completely upright, appearing proud and overly confident. In the same sentence, the Shulhan Aruch writes that "one should not walk four Amot with his head bare." When it comes to "Koma Zekufa," the Shulhan Aruch uses the word "Assur" ("It is forbidden"), whereas regarding walking bareheaded, he writes simply that this should not be done. It would thus appear that although it is proper to wear a head-covering, this is not strictly required. However, the Taz (Rav David Ha'levi Segal, 1586-1667) writes that even assuming that head-covering was practiced in ancient times only as a Middat Hasidut, in modern times this has become a strict Halachic obligation. The Taz explains that since the Christians are accustomed to walk about bareheaded, doing so violates the prohibition of "Hukot Ha'akum" – following gentile practices. Hence, in the view of the Taz, one is required to wear a Kippa nowadays in order to avoid transgressing the Biblical prohibition of "Hukot Ha'akum." Hacham Ovadia Yosef disputes this claim. Based on the comments of the Mahari Kolon (Rav Yosef Kolon, d. 1480), Hacham Ovadia writes that one transgresses the prohibition of "Hukot Ha'akum" only if he does something with the specific intention of imitating gentile practices and resembling a non-Jew. If a person decides to leave his head uncovered in the interest of comfort, this does not violate the prohibition. Nevertheless, in a famous responsum in Yehaveh Da'at, Hacham Ovadia writes that nowadays, one is required to wear a Kippa, for a different reason – because this has become the "badge" or symbol of an observant Jewish man. By wearing a Kippa, one identifies himself as a member of the population of G-d-fearing Jews. Conversely, one who chooses not to wear a Kippa presents himself as being non-observant, thereby inviting suspicion, and for this reason, wearing a Kippa has today become an obligation. It seems, however, that this applies only in Israel, where the decision of whether or not to cover one's head is the clear marker of one's self-identification as religious or secular. Here in the United States, however, at least in some communities, this is not the case, and it is known that not all observant Jews ensure to keep their heads covered at all times. Therefore, while it is certainly preferred and advisable to wear a Kippa – and where a person fears antisemitism, he can wear a cap instead of, or over, his Kippa – one who wishes to leave his head uncovered has a basis on which to rely. (Indeed, in the school where I work, I advise the members of the basketball team to leave their Kippot off during games, because the Kippa would interfere with their playing; since the Kippa is not required as a strict obligation, it may certainly be removed for this purpose.) Nevertheless, wearing a Kippa when eating, praying, reciting Berachot and learning Torah is strictly required. Of course, one must wear a Kippa in the synagogue. In the presence of a Rabbi, it is proper to wear a Kippa in the interest of Derech Eretz (common courtesy). When a person wishes to fulfill the requirement of a Beracha by listening to its recitation by somebody else, he must wear a Kippa even though he remains silent, because he is considered as actually reciting the Beracha by listening to his fellow.

New Mexico Landowner Arrested After Alleged Armed Threats Against Fishermen  A New Mexico landowner has been arrested and charged with five felony counts of aggravated assault after authorities say he repeatedly threatened anglers who were legally fishing and wading in the Pecos River. According to the New Mexico Department of Justice, Erik Briones allegedly confronted multiple fishermen over several years while carrying firearms, despite court rulings affirming the public's right to access and wade in many of the state's rivers. Witnesses reported that Briones made threats suggesting he could shoot across the river and warned anglers they would be responsible if they were hit. One widely cited incident, captured on video in 2023, allegedly shows Briones holding a shotgun and telling a fishing guide, "I'm gonna start target practicing," while the guide stood in the river. The arrest comes amid a broader legal battle over public access to New Mexico waterways. Courts, including the New Mexico Supreme Court and later federal courts, have repeatedly upheld the public's right to wade and fish in streams that cross private property, provided people do not trespass on private land to gain access. Authorities also accuse Briones of ignoring court orders by installing barbed wire fences, using heavy equipment to alter the river channel, and creating hazards that could endanger anglers. State officials say these actions were intended to discourage public use of the river. New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez said the case is about enforcing both public access laws and criminal laws against threats of violence. The arrest marks the latest chapter in New Mexico's ongoing debate over private property rights and public access to rivers, with state officials emphasizing that disagreements over access laws do not justify intimidation or armed confrontations.  According to KOB4 News, the New Mexico attorney general had filed a motion to keep Briones in jail until trial. A hearing on that motion was canceled, and Briones is now being released. Court records show Briones must wear an ankle monitor after release.

The best ways to beat the heat include drinking plenty of water, limiting strenuous outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day, wearing lightweight, light-colored clothing, and seeking shade or air conditioning whenever possible. Do and Don't In The Heat Don't take cold showers. This can constrict blood vessels and make one hotter after drying off from the cold shower. Don't sleep in the nude. Wearing pajamas offer an extra layer of wicking away the sweat at night from the sheets. Do drink electrolytes. These aid in staying hydrated along with drinking plenty of water. Do take a handkerchief, wet with cool water and wrap around the neck. This works well when working in the heat. Do offer fresh water daily to pets, preferably in a shaded area away from flies. Do use fans to cool off homes to shops to barns and pens. Tip: Set a bowl of ice in front of the fan so that cool air is blown. Not everything people try is effective, however. Waiting until you're thirsty to drink water can lead to dehydration, and using fans alone during extreme heat may not provide enough cooling when temperatures become dangerously high. Alcohol and excessive caffeine can also contribute to dehydration. Whether you're working outdoors, farming, fishing, or enjoying recreation, recognizing the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke can help prevent serious illness.

30 years ago – in July 1996 - the Lisbon Lions stand was opened at Celtic Park, continuing the ground's redevelopment.There are four stands at Celtic Park: the main stand, North Stand, Lisbon Lions stand and Jock Stein stand. Each time one these has been opened, matches have been held to celebrate this.The original Celtic Park opened in 1888 before 1892 when the Bhoys moved the short distance to the second site, which remains the location where the Celts play.Over the years, the look of this venue has changed significantly, with many stands and structures being built and then knocked down, and in the case of the original pavilion, burned down as happened in 1929.If looking at the current Parkhead, the history of this can be traced back to 1971, when the main stand was built, although the foundations of this are much older.The oldest of Celtic's stands is the main stand. Work on this began in 1970 and was eventually completed in 1971. It ran behind schedule which led to one very strange scenario.By 14 August 1971, the League Cup campaign had begun but Celtic could not yet play at home due to the building works. This meant that their match versus Rangers had to be played at Ibrox – but with Celtic as the home team, and Celtic season tickets being valid!11 days later, the main stand was finally ready for use. In terms of opening games for this new facility, there are two relevant fixtures. The first of these came in the League Cup on 25 August. Morton travelled to Celtic Park and the main stand was now open for fans.To say the least, this was a less than auspicious occasion to mark the stand's maiden game. Despite getting a penalty – which was missed by Kenny Dalglish – the Celts fell to a 1-0 defeat. Although Celtic still made it through to the final, they famously lost 4-1 to Partick Thistle.However, this Morton fixture was not the main stand's official opening event. Instead, that took place a week when Nacional from Uruguay were the glamour opponents invited to mark the occasion.60,000 supporters were in Celtic Park, with the main stand being ticket-only and sold out. They watched on as Celtic legend Jimmy McGrory – the club's all-time top scorer and former manager – performed the official ceremony.This was a much brighter moment as the Hoops won 3-0 to officially christen the new stand with victory. Although there were also complaints from the Scottish League who were upset at the game being played during the season, despite the Scottish FA agreeing to this.In the following decades, little major reconstruction work took place at Celtic Park. By the early-1990s, this left the club facing a major problem. The Hillsborough tragedy had led to a demand that all football stadiums be all-seated.In this era, Celtic faced major financial problems and simply did not have the money to build such a venue. Pipe dreams of moving to Cambuslang soon disappeared. Eventually, this led to Fergus McCann's takeover, after which there was rapid building progress at Celtic Park.In the 1994-95 season, the Bhoys vacated their usual home and instead played at Hampden. Whilst they were away, Celtic Park was razed to the ground, except for the main stand. Building work soon followed at a cost of £17 million.In place of the old Jungle section of the ground, a massive new North Stand was built. Quite simply, this towered over what had been the former ground. Also, with seats for 27,000 supporters, this was one of the biggest stands in Britain.By 1995, everything looked brighter again for Celtic. The takeover had long since been completed, the Bhoys had held a successful share issue to raise much needed funds and, most importantly, the club's first silverware since 1989 sat in the Parkhead trophy room.In addition, the North Stand was now finished and ready for an official opening. On a gala day on 5 August 1995, fans got their first experience of this new venue.A sell-out crowd turned up in Glasgow's east end, with the brilliant sunshine capturing the general mood of optimism. Rod Stewart did the official honours at the ribbon-cutting to open the North Stand, before a friendly match was held.Celtic's opponents were Newcastle United, with a team full of stars including David Ginola and Peter Beardsley. They all helped entertain the supporters in a 1-1 draw. John Collins got the first goal in front of the new stand, thanks to a 30th minute penalty, before Les Ferdinand's second half equaliser proved to be the last scoring of the match.Now that one part of Fergus McCann's new construction was complete, it would not be long before more building work took place. Behind the west stand – or old Celtic end – a temporary stand was erected, but this was only a short-term solution.One year on, there was yet another new stand to be opened. And like in 1971, there were two relevant matches when it came to doing this.Throughout the 1995-96 season, more building work had taken place at the east end of the ground, on the site of what had previously been referred to as the ‘Rangers end'. Now this stand was complete and ready for action.On 31 July 1996, another English team made their way north of the border. This time it was Arsenal's turn to experience the new Celtic Park, but it was also the first time for Celtic fans too.Another sell-out crowd – this time with 47,300 fans – were in the ground. They witnessed a 2-1 win for the home side. In fact, Arsenal led for most of the match thanks to a Lee Dixon goal, but two very late strikes from Simon Donnelly and Phil O'Donnell ensured a green-and-white win.Despite Arsenal being high-profile visitors, this match was not the official opening of the stand. Instead, this took place a few days later.On 3 August 1996, Billy Connolly this time was given the opening honours. Wearing a standout green suit, the Glasgow comedian officially opened the new east stand, before a clash of the hoops where Celtic played Sporting Lisbon.This match showed the best and worst of Celtic in this era. The Celts looked good going forward and enjoyed a two-goal advantage thanks to goals from Jorge Cadete – playing against his old club – and Simon Donnelly.However, with ten minutes remaining, this good work was undone in little more than a minute. As the clock struck 80, Luis Filipe halved the deficit. And very shortly after this, the unfortunate John Hughes knocked into his own net, to seal a 2-2 draw.In fact, you can argue that this stand has had three official openings. The first two came in 1996 when the building work was first done. The next happened four years later, but this time without any building changes.Instead, the event in the year 2000 concerned a change of name. The stand was simply referred to as the east stand, although some fans referred to it using the old ‘Rangers end' adage. But now Celtic wanted to use the venue to honour the club's greatest side.It was agreed that the east stand would be officially christened the ‘Lisbon Lions' stand in celebration of all those players who contributed to European Cup glory in 1967. This was in response to a public vote in the choice of name, with Fergus McCann being runner-up.On 1 February 2000, Bayern Munich came to Celtic Park. In front of a less than full Celtic Park, the Germans claimed a 2-1 victory. In truth, it was an unimportant game, and it was one that almost did not happen.The previous Saturday, high winds had damaged some of the stadium, including the new stand. This had forced the postponement of Celtic's Scottish Cup clash with Inverness Caledonian Thistle. The weather eventually calmed down enough to fix the roof and let the Bayern game go ahead.But, of course, when it came to replay the Scottish Cup tie, the Celts were left wishing that the weather had again stopped this. Famously, ‘Super Caley went ballistic' and knocked the hoops out of the cup, considered to be one of Celtic's worst ever results.In fact, when the Lisbon Lions stand received its official name, the full ground was now complete. After the east stand was finished in 1996, attentions turned to adding the final piece of the Celtic Park jigsaw.Where the temporary stand had stood at the west end of the ground, construction began. By 1998, this was finished and ready to be opened for fans to use. The completed 60,000 stadium was an impressive sight; the biggest football ground in Scotland.Once more, two matches were involved in the opening of this new stand. On the face of it, the first game played in front of fans should have been a major moment. As well as a fully rebuilt stadium, the Celts were in the qualifiers of the Champions League for the first time since it was rebranded from the European Cup.On 22 July 1998, Dublin side St Patrick's Athletic came to Celtic Park. 56,864 were in the ground. They watched an utterly lacklustre match which ended 0-0. There were even boos as the team left the pitch at full-time, although Celtic did at least go on to win the second leg.This disappointing fixture was not the official opening though. Instead, that took place just over two weeks later. Liverpool were the latest team from England to open a Celtic Park stand.Before the match began, there was a poignant ceremony. This latest stand was to be named after Jock Stein, the man who had led Celtic to Europe's pinnacle. His wife Jean opened the stand, and she was joined by most of the Lisbon Lions, who showed off their famous trophy.This time it was a sell-out and 59,727 supporters crammed into the ground, a sight which has become common in the years since. They did not get to cheer a goal as the Merseyside men claimed a 1-0 win, but Celtic knew they were on the upward track.The changing face of Celtic Park has been truly remarkable, including the surrounding areas. For now, the ground has a fixed feel to it although there are always demands from supporters for further changes, including another tier being added to the main stand.In addition, there are regular fan discussions about whether more names should be added to the ground; figures such as Brother Walfrid or Fergus McCann are usually promoted in relation to this.Whichever stand you sit in at Celtic Park, it is one that has been witness to so many memorable moments in the club's history. The club's home since 1892, it's one place that you know where there's going to be a show.Enjoy…Apple podcastsSpotifyAmazonPlayer.fmSpreakerAudioboomYoutube This is a public episode.

The "belief window" - the invisible lenses that shape how we interpret every life event - comes under McKay's learned scrutiny today as he explains that, while we assume we see objective reality, our brains actually construct our experiences based on past conditioning. He then demonstrates that questioning these default settings moves us from being constrained by old perspectives to being empowered by new ones.Referencing the Northern Thailand cave rescue and the Mann Gulch fire, McKay shows how mental models can save us or become blind spots. He highlights NVIDIA's AI vision and Boyan Slat's Ocean Cleanup to illustrate how "future glasses" overcome skepticism. Through Daryl Davis's conversations and behavioral science, we learn that transformation begins with perception, not just behavior. Throughout this episode, McKay encourages us all to stop reacting to the world through the lenses of your past and start constructing a new reality through the vision of who we are becoming. Main Themes:How the "belief window" shapes our constructed realityIdentifying default lenses formed by childhood and past setbacksThe Tham Luang cave rescue and the power of "What if?" questionsWhy old "safety" habits become dangerous blind spots in new crisesHow "today glasses" favor immediate comfort over long-term goalsUsing a "five-year lens" to reduce emotional distress and gain perspectiveNVIDIA's AI journey as a model for choosing future vision over current viewsViewing failure as information instead of evidence of impossibilityWhy perception must shift before lasting behavioral change can occurThe impact of environmental lenses and expectations on our decisionsTop 10 Quotes:"Your brain isn't simply observing reality, it's actively constructing your experience of reality.""The world begins to look like the glasses that you're wearing.""Our greatest strengths quietly become our greatest blind spots.""When you view a problem from the future, it loses some of its emotional grip.""Today's glasses constantly ask, 'How do I feel?' Five-year glasses ask, 'Who am I becoming?'""People wearing future glasses are willing to change strategies without abandoning the goal.""To construct a new reality or way of living, we have to first put on a new view."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

The Fall of Patroclus and the Killing Machine. Guest: Professor Emily Wilson. The turning point of the epic occurs when Patroclus enters the battle wearing Achilles' armor to deceive the Trojans and save the Greek ships. Ignoring Achilles' warning to return quickly, Patroclus is driven by a desire for honor and continues his assault until he is stripped of his armor by Apollo and killed by Hector. This loss transforms Achilles into a terrifying "killing machine" who returns to the field for vengeance. Before re-entering the fray, his mother Thetis secures new magical armor from Hephaestus, the "tech god" of fire who works with robotic assistants. Achilles' subsequent rampage is so brutal that he violates human norms by killing unarmed suppliants and clogging the river Xanthus with so many corpses that the river god himself rises in protest. The narrative reaches its climax as Hector faces Achilles alone outside the city walls. The poem suggests that without proper burial, a spirit or psyche is doomed to wander, as seen when the spirit of Patroclus visits Achilles to plead for his funeral rites. 71890
