Ray Dalio says he believes the economy is already on the edge of a full-blown recession already, and he's hardly alone. However, Dalio also told Meet The Press his main worry is that recession economy getting slammed by a crisis. While Mr. Dalio means persistently higher interest rates, we know that's not what the real markets are pricing even if ultimately this would lead to exactly what he's warning about.

The Boone County Recorder of Deeds office is a critical one that is often overlooked. You will visit Boone County Recorder of Deeds Bob Nolte's office when you get married, if you're refinancing a house, for some land transfers and for military discharge paperwork. Mr. Nolte joined host Fred Parry in-studio Saturday morning on 939 the Eagle's "CEO Roundtable". Mr. Nolte earned his bachelor's degree in history from New York State's Binghamton University and earned his master's degree in education administration from USC. He worked in the Mizzou Athletics department under then-Athletic Director Mike Alden in the compliance office and served as director of compliance too. Mr. Nolte praises Mr. Alden, describing him as a great leader and adding that he has a photographic memory with names. One of the issues Mr. Nolte raised awareness about during the interview is deed fraud, which he describes as "any type of transferring ownership illegally," He says it can take numerous different methods. While Mr. Nolte says there have been no examples of residential deed fraud in Boone County, he wants everyone to be aware of the issue and to know about it. Mr. Nolte brought up Graceland in Memphis. A woman from southern Missouri's Stone County pleaded guilty in February to federal charges for trying to defraud Elvis Presley's family of millions of dollars and to steal the family's ownership interest in Graceland in Memphis. Mr. Parry and Recorder of Deeds Nolte also discussed senior real estate applications and REAL ID during the interview. Starting in May, every air traveler 18 and older will be required to present a REAL ID-compliant driver's license or ID card or another ID form accepted by TSA to board federally-regulated domestic flights. Mr. Nolte also discussed the good working relationship that the various Boone County elected officials have:

President-elect Donald Trump yesterday sounded an alarm about a very serious threat to our national security and commercial interests arising from the current status of the strategic Panama Canal. While Mr. Trump cited concerns about Panama's exorbitant charges imposed on U.S. military and commercial shipping, he also directly addressed the question of who controls the waterway we built. And with good reason. In Panama, as in much of Latin America, the Chinese Communists have secured key real estate – usually under the pretense of business operations – that can be used to project power. Their ports at both ends of the Panama Canal could easily deny our warships' or others' transit, or even shut it down. It's high time this yawning problem – and the larger issue of hostile foreigners' penetration of our hemisphere – be front and center in our national security planning and operations. This is Frank Gaffney.
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – If we look at what Donald Trump has pledged to do, I hope we begin to realize that he cannot fulfill much of his agenda alone. He needs Congress to pass the tariffs and tax relief he is proposing. While Mr. Trump will have influence over Congress, remember that under his last administration, many in his own executive agencies worked against his agenda...

Missourians are casting ballots in November on Proposition A, which would increase Missouri's minimum wage in January to $13.75 per hour and would increase it to $15 an hour in 2026. The measure also adjusts the minimum wage based on changes in the Consumer Price Index each January starting in 2027, and it requires all employers to provide one hour of paid sick leave for every thirty hours worked. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri" to discuss the November election and Proposition A. While Mr. Faughn doesn't like Proposition A, he predicts it will pass statewide easily. Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry president Kara Corches, Missouri Restaurant Association head Buddy Lahl and other top business groups have called an 11 am press conference in Jefferson City to urge you to vote against Proposition A. They say it would make eating out and buying groceries more expensive. Columbia Pasta La Fata owner Michelle La Fata disagrees and supports Proposition A, saying it will help working people and businesses succeed together. She says she wants her employees to truly value the restaurant and says that starts with her valuing them:
On this episode Mr. Lockwood, Megan, and Alexis welcomed a special guest, Choir Co-President Ava Rasmussen. While Mr. Harman was under the weather, they played Red Cards/Green Cards, learned some true facts, and questioned everything. They also discussed Soda Shoppe which is coming up soon!
Missouri's November general election is six weeks from tomorrow. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri", telling listeners that the August primaries have been more exciting than the November election cycle thus far. While Mr. Faughn believes U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley (R) will be re-elected in November, he says Democratic challenger Lucas Kunce has made it a race. As for Missouri's gubernatorial race, Faughn expects GOP nominee Mike Kehoe (R), Missouri's lieutenant governor, to beat Democratic nominee Crystal Quade, the Missouri House Minority Leader from Springfield. During the show, Faughn discussed possible Cabinets for both gubernatorial candidates. He describes Leader Quade as a competent legislator who could do the job as governor but says she is still a longshot to win. But he says Leader Quade has positioned herself as a real alternative and that has helped her. As for Lt. Governor Kehoe, Mr. Faughn predicts that if Kehoe wins, he will pick Cabinet members who served with him in the Missouri Senate and people he knows from business. Faughn predicts Lt. Governor Kehoe would run Missouri like a business. Mr. Faughn also says there are many people who will be interested in the state Department of Agriculture (MDA) director's post, if Mr. Kehoe wins:
During Friday's session, emotional testimonies from the victims' families were anticipated, aiming to provide the jury with a deeper understanding of the devastating impact of Daybell's actions. These statements are critical as they contribute to the jury's decision on the appropriate sentence for Daybell. The courtroom heard first from Colby Ryan, Tylee's brother, who struggled through tears to convey his grief. "I will never get to see my sister grow up or achieve her dreams," he said. "She was robbed of her life, and we were robbed of her presence." Following Colby, Larry and Kay Woodcock, JJ Vallow's grandparents, took the stand. Larry's voice shook as he described the pain of losing JJ, saying, "JJ was a light in our lives, and that light was cruelly extinguished. We will never recover from this loss." As the day progressed, Tammy Daybell's family shared their anguish. Tammy's sister, Samantha Gwilliam, addressed the court with a mixture of sorrow and anger. "Tammy was a loving wife, mother, and sister. She deserved so much more than to be a victim of such betrayal and violence," Gwilliam stated. The prosecution highlighted the cold and calculated nature of Daybell's actions, urging the jury to consider the maximum penalty. "Chad Daybell's crimes were premeditated and heinous. The loss felt by these families is immeasurable," said Prosecutor Rob Wood. "Justice demands that he faces the severest consequences." Daybell's defense team sought to humanize their client, arguing that his life should be spared. "While Mr. Daybell has been convicted, he is still a father and has family who care about him. We ask the jury to consider life in prison without the possibility of parole," pleaded defense attorney John Prior. The jury's deliberation on whether Daybell should receive a life sentence or the death penalty is expected to be intense and potentially lengthy, given the gravity of the crimes and the emotional weight of the victim impact statements.

可以搜索公号【璐璐的英文小酒馆】或者添加【luluxjg】咨询课程or加入社群，查看文稿和其他精彩内容哦~ Hi, everyone. And welcome back to your favorite segment Sound of Musicals. 欢迎回来, 你们最喜欢的【曲外之音】. Hi, Oliver. Hello again.So last time we talked about The Sound of Music, 【音乐之声】. And today can I also propose another also feel-good happy musical?That sounds good to me. Yeah.So you remember in The Sound of Music, we talked about the main character Maria was a governess是一个家庭教师, but you know you said governess is kind of like a tutor and a nanny. But if I say to you the quintessential English nanny, who do you think of?I think we might be talking about Mary Poppins.Yes. Mary Poppins.Yes.Now Mary Poppins, this character is so well known and so popular. I think sometimes it also is used almost as a synonym as something British, when Americans make jokes and is like “you're such a Mary Poppins.” It's like you're so English. I've never heard that one before, but definitely Mary Poppins is very well known for kind of the British nurse and the English nurse of the time. And in this, I think it's again, it is a musical, but it's also a musical film. And in this one, unlike The Sound of Music where the musical was first and then the musical film, Mary Poppins is actually musical film first. And then much much later they made a musical like on stage musical. Ah. Did they? I didn't know that. Yeah. The musical film, I think most people probably just remember the Disney version of the musical film made in 1964. But the West End production of the actual Mary Poppins musical was not until 2004. Wow, so much later. Yeah. It's again, based on a book, based on a series of books, and you know, these two, there's something in common between Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music.Is there?Think about the main character, the main star of the film. Oh yes. It's Julie Andrews. She plays Maria and Mary Poppins.Yes. Oh. Yeah.So basically she won an Oscar for one of them and she won Golden Globe for the other. She won all the awards. Haha.Yeah. For these two Julie Andrews is amazing, like amazing musical actress. This actress, in general, she sings, she has such a beautiful voice. She does definitely. I talked us through The Sound of Music last time. Would you like to talk us through Mary Poppins now? Sure. And actually, before we get into the storyline, which is not complex at all, do you know that Mary Poppins, the translation, the translated name in Chinese, it has nothing to do with Mary Poppins. It's actually called欢乐满人间, which is a direct translation of like the world is filled with joy and laughter. I like that name. That's a very good title, hahaha. What a great translation. It's got joy and laughter in the title.Yeah.Ok. So the reason why in a lot of the American film or movie reference, this is seen as quintessentially English is because this film the story is set in London in 1910. So there's this family, Banks, Mr. and Mrs. Banks. So Mr. Banks actually works in a bank in finance a bit on the nose. Yeah, very much. Yeah. And like this Sound of Music, von Trapp, Mr. Banks is also very much, I would say, without any joy, very much hapless, very much focused on discipline, and it's basically a workaholic. And so Mr. And Mrs. Banks they come home to discover that their children's nanny has quit once again after the children Michael and Jane run away to find their missing kite. They have two kids, not seven. But these two kids, they're also not really unruly, but they just didn't really like the fact that they didn't really like these old timey, traditional nannies who are just all about discipline and no fun. So basically now Mr. Banks needed to find another nanny. While Mr. Banks wants a strict, no nonsense nanny, who can just basically teaches the kids discipline controls the kid. The children ask for like a kind sympathetic nice nanny.
The Columbia Police Department is currently 41 officers short, according to CPD assistant chief Jeremiah Hunter. Columbia Police Officers Association (CPOA) president Matt Nichols is concerned about that number and about staffing levels. Mr. Nichols joined us live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Mid-Missouri" this morning, telling listeners that one detective left the department because of the way the community is leaning. Mr. Nichols and CPOA are also disappointed because Columbia's city council has not allocated any federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) dollars as premium/hazard pay for law enforcement officers and other essential workers who were unable to work from home during the COVID pandemic. Mr. Nichols tells listeners that one-time money would help retain Columbia Police officers, as well as bus drivers and garbage collectors. Mayor Barbara Buffaloe has noted Columbia's city council approved a fiscal year 2024 budget in September that saw an across-the-board increase in pay, and an increase in starting salary for police officers. While Mr. Nichols acknowledges those two points, he says inflation has eaten a lot of that raise:

Episode 4.19: Hiring is tough – in the current climate, that's a given. And while there are strategies upon strategies on how to win this “war for talent”, not nearly enough is said on the absolute best way to win that war: which is simply to avoid job vacancies in the first place. Every employee you retain is a new hire you won't have to find – not to mention onboard, train and socially integrate into your team. Joining us today to help us better understand this challenge is Joey Coleman, the Founder and Chief Experience Composer for Design Symphony, perhaps best known for his Wall Street Journal Bestseller Never Lose a Customer Again. His latest book, Never Lose An Employee Again: The Simple Path to Remarkable Retention will be released later this summer. Here, he explains: The importance of retention, with regard to customers and employees; How loyalty interacts with retention - and what organizations commonly get wrong about loyalty; The eight phases of the journey to improve employee retention; and What you can do right now to improve employee retention in your own workplace! If you prefer to read along while you listen, we've done all the hard work for you! We listened back to this episode and took notes below, and access is free! Why Study Customer and Employee Retention? Retention is a prominent theme in Mr. Coleman's writing because of a human being's biological imperative of being predisposed towards “the chase, not the catch and retain.” Retention is also important to Mr. Coleman because he believes businesses focus too much on marketing and sales. His first book, Never Lose A Customer Again, provides a framework and methodology for enhancing customer retention for companies. Its cover uses the symbolism of a balloon, to illustrate a lack of retention in an organization. If customers aren't retained, they usually don't storm in and fire the business aggressively. It's instead like a balloon – a slow, quiet drift away. The same goes for employees, despite often having more notice. Employers can still be surprised or caught off-guard by an employee giving two weeks with (seemingly) no cues or signs. Examining retention allows individuals to think strategically, systematically, and intentionally about keeping customers and employees.

By signing up you agree to our terms How Loyalty Interacts With Employee Retention Loyalty and retention work hand in hand. Loyalty is the aspirational goal of retention. The organization will likely retain employees who feel loyal to the organization. What organizations get wrong about loyalty is that there is an expectation that it should be given instantly. There is no other situation or environment where individuals expect this to be the case. Mr. Coleman gives an example of a bad first date due to assumptions about loyalty. “We're sitting at the first date, and the waiter or waitress comes over to take our order. And before they've even taken our order, we're asking the other person, ‘so when do I get to meet your parents? I'm thinking this is going really well.' We wouldn't do that in our dating lives. And yet, when we bring on a new customer, or we bring on a new employee, our perspective is, ‘well, now they're in, right? They're going to stay unless something goes wrong.'” Understanding Never Lose An Employee Again Writing on Never Lose An Employee Again: The Simple Path to Remarkable Retention began before the pandemic. When the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted many lives in the United States, he asked his publisher to pump the brakes on writing his book. While Mr. Coleman wasn't afraid it would change the frameworks he built in his book, he knew it would likely change employee expectations of office c...
Pete Bigelow, Senior Reporter, Automotive News, joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss the changing landscape of mobility markets. The conversation begins with Pete discussing how the automotive industry is preparing for a potential economic recession and the impact that Tesla's price cuts are having on the market. The other major effect that Tesla is having on the market is the adoption of software-as-a-service in vehicles today.Tesla's FSD (Full Self-Driving) is highly profitable and it's success from an economic standpoint is changing global automakers in-vehicle software strategy.The business strategy behind it is very sound and enticing. – Pete BigelowNot all global automakers are feeling the Tesla pinch just yet. Ferrari with €1.38 billion in cash a 23% profit margin and no pension liabilities is currently over subscribed in terms of their order book. But looking to the future, Ferrari like all of the other global automakers will have to adapt to a world with autonomous vehicles. Personally owned autonomous vehicles are coming and Ferrari owners will want one. Will Ferrari listen to their customers and introduce an autonomous Ferrari at some point in the future? Grayson and Pete discuss the possibilities. Or could it be Mercedes-Benz that takes the plunge first introduces a personally owned autonomous vehicle?Over at VW under Oliver Blume, the company has been focused on IPOing their iconic brands starting with Porsche. Could a Lamborghini or Bentley IPO be next? Possibly. But what we do know is that under Mr. Blume's leadership, VW is unlocking value for shareholders.While Mr. Blume has taken a diligent approach to the VW brand IPOs, the autonomous vehicle industry over the last 24 months rushed into SPACs and IPOs with limited and sometimes no revenue. Now they are struggling as the reality of public markets begins to set in and Mr. Market does his job to paraphrase the famed investor Howard Marks.Everyone saw the EV SPAC succeeding and raising so much money that they did not want to be left out. It was fear of missing out, fear of missing out on that big burst of cash upfront and they thought they were going to make it through to the other side. Now that is very clearly flat not the case in a lot of places or it puts a lot of people in a very precarious position.– Pete BigelowThe autonomous vehicle companies that stayed private such as Cruise and Waymo are now in a position of greater strength as consolidation has begun to sweep the industry and certain competitors have ceased to exist. It's in this market that Cruise and Waymo along with Motional will be able to gain market share thanks in part to their strategic financial partners. Wrapping up the conversation, Pete shares his thoughts on how he sees mobility changing over the next decade.

On this episode our featured guest, Chirag Patel (RT, CT, MR, RRA), comes on to share the most current updates to the RA profession and scope of practice standards in his home state of New Jersey. He walks us through what that process looked like for him and where he would like to see the future of the RA profession to progress in New Jersey. Together we navigate the conversation through some of the hardships our profession has faced and what we are still working towards. We talk about the importance of state and national recognition and how this effected his decision on when to apply to a program and after graduating. Educational decisions care be some of the hardest to make and Mr. Patel offers advise for those who are looking to advance in our field. We take the time to speak about those in our field who have been advocating for our profession over the past several years and the importance of speaking up along side them. Finding that unified voice sometimes can be hard, we are so excited that more of us are finding it and coming together to make a difference in states like New Jersey. While Mr. Patel points out there is still some progress to be made, getting that foot in the door was such a great start! Toward the end we talk about MARCA and the importance of seeing this legislation through to its final process. MARCA is so important for our profession and the recognition of the RA. We are all here asking for the help to get us through to the finish line!
When the Enterprise is suddenly hurled 1,000 light years away from an unexplored planet, Captain Kirk and his landing party are left stranded on the planet's barren surface without food or water. While Mr. Spock leads the Enterprise back to its original position, Captain Kirk, Dr. McCoy and Lt. Sulu must find a way to survive while defending themselves against a mysterious woman whose touch means instant death. There's not much to say about "That Which Survives," except for how out of character Spock seems to be when it comes to his condescending treatment of the Bridge crew (the same can be said about Kirk's treatment of Sulu on the planet's surface). But regardless, "That Which Survives" overcomes these flaws to succeed as an entertaining-enough late-3rd Season episode, mostly thanks to the performance of guest star Lee Meriwether as the deadly planetary guard, Lorisa.

Sitting on a picturesque hill side in Waterloo, Illinois is Eagle Cliff Miles Cemetery. Land purchased by Stephen W Miles was donated to the community to use as a public cemetery. While Mr. Miles might have been wealthy in life it appears death was not so gracious to his fortune. After passing, the Miles family lost all their wealth causing a ripple affect to the cemetery. Standing vacant and almost forgotten, it became a hot spot for vandals. Oh...did we mention many visitors to the cemetery have experienced otherworldly happenings? Spooky spooky.Sources:https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/local/after-80-years-volunteers-stopping-vandalism-sacrifices-bone-stealing-at-waterloo-cemetery/63-605398516https://www.mckendree.edu/academics/scholars/issue14/oberto.htmhttps://www.onlyinyourstate.com/illinois/native-american-burial-site-il/https://www.gershphoto.com/eagle-cliff-cemetery-and-miles-mausoleum/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vC9ZMzuUMk&t=1117s
In this episode of the Revenue Builders podcast, Doug Holladay joins our hosts John Kaplan and John McMahon to discuss the importance of purpose as a leader. Doug has found meaning in his long and successful career spanning from Goldman Sachs to international government and now, higher education as an executive-in-residence at Georgetown University. In their conversation, you'll hear many of the lessons Doug shares in his MBA class on the importance of authenticity, purpose, and vulnerability in becoming a truly impactful leader - and feeling fulfilled while doing it.Additional Resources:Donate to Morehouse College: https://www.giving.morehouse.edu/s/Get Doug's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Rethinking-Success-Essential-Practices-Finding/dp/0062897888LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dougholladay/Website: https://www.dougholladay.com/5 Traits of Successful Leaders: https://forc.mx/3BrMkHhListen to More Revenue Builders: https://forc.mx/3bfW5Od HIGHLIGHTSKnow your purpose and where you can add valueWhy business leaders are lonely at the topOur point of connection is our brokennessEulogy virtues vs Resume virtuesThe difference between happiness and meaningLife changes when we bother knowing other people's storiesThe neuroscience behind gratitudeGUEST BIOThe career trajectory of Doug Holladay has been unique and varied with its blend of public service, finance and business, non-profit work, and more recently, teaching and journalism.J. Douglas Holladay is a co-founder of Park Avenue Equity Partners, L.P. with offices in New York, a private equity fund which makes equity investments in middle market operating companies. He is a co-founder and general partner in Elgin Capital Partners LP, a private equity partnership focused on domestic energy development. While Mr. Holladay continues as an active investor, the main focus of his time is on several not-for-profit efforts, including PathNorth, which helps business owners and CEOs define success more broadly, and ABC2 (Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure), working to find a cure for brain cancer. Additionally, he holds the Heinz Christian Prechter Executive in Residence position at Georgetown University where he teaches MBA students.QUOTESDoug on why many executives are lonely at the top: "The unintended consequences of success can be loneliness and disconnection. You can be the principal of a middle school or sheriff of a police force in a small town, and the same phenomenon is true there. Particularly with men; we're not taught. We don't have a language of the heart."Doug on the difference between happiness and meaning: "Happiness is correlated with externalities. I have a girlfriend. My son got into a good college. I did this, I did that. And that comes and goes. Sometimes we're happy about these things. Sometimes we're not. But meaning is what you want to go for. Meaning, you can be in the most god-awful situations and still find meaning."Doug on understanding people through their stories: "Everybody is what they're like because of the sum total of all the craziness and goodness that they've experienced in life. Once you understand that, it's powerful."Check out John McMahon's book here: https://www.amazon.com/Qualified-Sales-Leader-Proven-Lessons/dp/0578895064

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, under fire for partying during Covid-19 restrictions in his country, managed to defeat the no-confidence vote against his leadership on June 6. The margin – 211 votes in his favour to 148 against. While Mr. Johnson has survived a leadership challenge, nearly 40 per cent of Conservative Party MPs have no confidence in him. What does this mean for Mr. Johnson's future? Is “partygate” the only issue that is bothering Tory MPs and the electorate? What happens next?

Show Notes ● This week, Dr. Glenn Vo spoke with a fellow entrepreneur with an amazing mission: David Meltzer. ● David is one of Glenn's life coaches, but he's more than just a role model for Glenn—David is also a speaker, author, podcaster, attorney, sports agent, TV personality, and a philanthropist (just to name a few of the “roles” he plays). ● So, why does David go above and beyond to create so much value and produce so much content? Well, he has a purpose: to empower thousands of people—like you—with values and practices to effectuate happiness. ● In fact, David's life mission is to teach over one billion people to make a lot of money and help a lot of other people all while having fun. ● Call him what they will, but David isn't afraid to tell people the truth. And one truth he believes in is that while money may not buy happiness, it allows you to “shop” for it. He knows that if he can teach you to “shop” for the “right things” for the “right reasons,” then you will be happy. “Big Entrepreneur 3” Productivity tip for Entrepreneurs. Have an “unwinding routine.” For David, his “tomorrow” starts today. You'll spend a third of your life sleeping, after all, and most people go to bed only to wake up more tired the next morning. They'll then wonder why they lack productivity. A tool that has helped him as an Entrepreneur. Become a “student of your calendar.” By that, David means you ought to pay attention and give your “five levels of intention.” As an entrepreneur, you can beat people with math if you understand time. Start by taking the activities you have planned and the activities you don't have planned. Then take the activities you do get paid for and the activities you don't get paid for. Favorite Business/Philosophy Book and Why. Read Think and Grow Rich by Napolean Hill. David reads this classic on a daily basis. Why? First, it's bifocal of why human nature never changes: the 500 most successful people in the world weren't so different than you, Dave, or Glenn. Secondly, David sees himself as a more modern Napolean Hill. While Mr. Hill was able to interview 500 people over the course of his life about how they became financially successful, David is able to interview 20-25 people on a daily basis about how they become successful in their respective industries… And, on that note, David was blessed to be in the movie Think and Grow Rich: The Legacy as well as being featured in the book itself. Learning From the Past A significant mistake and what he learned from it. Believe it or not, one of David's biggest mistakes was misunderstanding how mistakes work. He thought that mistakes, failures, and setbacks aren't “protection and promotion” or opportunities to learn but, rather, are forms of punishment. Likewise, we feel like we're being punished when we don't get the job we want or get into the school we want or the relationship we want. But if we look at it omnisciently, all things may very well happen for a reason. If you could talk to your younger self for one minute, what would you say? Whether that younger version is 14, 24, or 34 years old—he'd tell him to ask for help. People limit themselves when they don't ask for help. Don't Stop Here! David shares his “four values” and “five daily practices” with every one of his clients—people like Glenn himself. And while everyone needs to learn their own values, David shared his: gratitude, forgiveness, accountability, and Faith. Interested in more? Just reach out to Dave on Instagram, Facebook, or LinkedIn. If you want it, he's got it. However, the best way to contact him is to email him directly at David@dmeltzer.com.

The audience will hear from a veteran of the financial services world, representing a technology-enabled 401(k) platform for SMBs, who is creating awareness and engagement for retirement around the country.April 1st is traditionally known as April Fool's Day, where jokes and pranks are expected. In recent years, it has also been referred to as 401(k) day. This is a tribute to one of the more popular employer-sponsored retirement plans, available for business owners and their employees. While Mr. T is famous for the catchphrase "I pity the fool," we don't want to pity SMBs that don't have a retirement plan in place yet. The idea is to better help them understand how to best take advantage of this vehicle, especially during a time when many states around the country are passing mandates that require businesses to offer a retirement plan to their employees. We are joined by Vinnie Allard, Director of Advisor National Accounts at Human Interest. Vinnie and his colleagues have been huge proponents of making 401(k) retirement planning easy and affordable for SMBs. Human Interest aims to sync business payroll, process contributions, handle the related compliance testing and IRS paperwork on behalf of SMBs. The goal is to take the hassle out of managing your company's 401(k), and that is no joke!Tune in for this pragmatic conversation at TalkRadio.nyc or watch the Facebook Livestream by Clicking Here.
“To see your heroes fail,” continues Loud, “is to learn something really important at the beginning of someone's career. Anybody can have a bomb. Anybody can flop. And to start out your career with a monumental flop, the way I did, boy do I appreciate a show that goes well and hits now!” We're speaking with a multi-hyphenate legend, here. “That need to be in the theatre, that yearning to be in a musical or to work on a musical and have that be your life is so powerful,” says Loud. “And it bites us at different times in our lives. I knew for six years old what I wanted to do with my life and I never waivered.” While Mr. Loud knew what he wanted, he still had to figure out how and where he belonged in the industry – which took him a few tried to make sure he was going down the right road. After his first Broadway musical, the legendary Merrily We Roll Along, flopped – he had to pivot. And now, in 2022, Mr. Loud continues to work with Parkinson's disease, still figuring out ways to pivot and continue to tell his stories. David Loud, famed Broadway music director, arranger, performer, and teacher continues the multi-hyphenate theatre artist legacy by adding author to his hyphens. His new book, Facing the Music, is now available for purchase. “I have always been a multi-hyphenate, I think,” says Loud. “I always found this niche for myself of the pianist who can say a few lines on stage. I've never quite fit into only one category. I love doing lots of different things in the theatre. I've always wanted to do everything in the theatre.” And now, theatre lovers everywhere can read about Mr. Loud's fantastic journey in show business. One can begin to understand what a multi-hyphenate's life was life before the word multi-hyphenate grew in popularity. “When we moved to New York to go into showbusiness – we were not graduates of musical theatre academies,” continues Loud. “We learned by doing and we learned from our friends and we learned by imitating and we went to auditions and we figured out what worked and what didn't work. We had to be self-starters in that way.” In this episode, we speak about our love for musical theatre, what it was really like to work with Stephen Sondheim, how multi-hyphenating stems out of need to be a part of any aspect of the theatre, his experience working on Merrily We Roll Along, casting choices that have excited us throughout the years, and the importance of failure. David Loud occupies a unique place in Broadway history. In addition to his distinguished career as one of Broadway's most respected music directors and arrangers, he originated three Broadway roles as an actor, including his appearance in the original cast of Stephen Sondheim's legendary failure (and cult classic) Merrily We Roll Along, directed by Harold Prince. In a career spanning several decades, he served as music director for the original Broadway productions of Ragtime, Curtains, Sondheim on Sondheim, The Visit, The Scottsboro Boys, A Class Act, The Look of Love, and Steel Pier, as well as revivals of She Loves Me, Company, and Sweeney Todd. He also appeared alongside Zoe Caldwell and Audra McDonald in Terrence McNally's Tony-winning play, Master Class. About Facing the Music – Musical Director and arranger David Loud, a legendary Broadway talent, recounts his wildly entertaining and deeply poignant trek through the wilderness of his childhood and the edge-of-your-seat drama of a career on, in, under, and around Broadway for decades. He reveals his struggle against the ravages of Parkinson's and triumphs repeatedly. This memoir is also a remarkable love letter to music. Loud is the 'Ted Lasso' of the theater business, ever the optimist. An inspiration to all! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is Dr. MaryAnn Diorio, novelist and life coach, welcoming you to another episode of Winning with the Word. Today is Monday, January 24, 2022, and this is Episode #4 of Series 2022. This episode is titled "Is Your Package Still Unwrapped?" Recently, I heard a wonderful gentleman by the name of Wallace Johnson make the following statement: "Don't die with your package still unwrapped!" His statement deeply resonated with me because it closely resembled a statement I often make, and that is, "Don't die without singing your song." While Mr. Johnson used the symbol of a package and I used the symbol of a song, we both meant the same thing: Don't leave this earth without fulfilling your God-given purpose! God created you ON purpose and FOR a purpose. But it is up to you to discover what that purpose is and, then, to fulfill it. If you don't intentionally look for your purpose, you run the risk of never discovering it. You run the risk of dying without unwrapping your package or without singing your song. What is the song God gave you to sing? Are you singing it? If not, why not? There are many reasons why people don't sing their songs. Here are a few of them: 1) Not knowing what their song is. How can you know what song you were created to sing? There is only one way I know to find out, and that is through Jesus Christ. He is the One Who created you, so He alone knows the song He created you to sing. When you establish a relationship with Jesus Christ, He will reveal to you the song He created you to sing. 2. Fear. You may know what song you were created to sing, but, for whatever reason, you're afraid of singing it. Maybe you're afraid of messing up. Maybe you're afraid of what people may think. Maybe you're afraid of being considered an imposter. Whatever the reason, fear is keeping you from singing your song. So, ask yourself this question: What do you fear more: taking the risk of singing your song while you are still on this earth, or leaving this earth without singing your song? 3. Unbelief: Maybe you doubt that you have a song to sing at all. Or maybe you don't think you're good enough to sing your song. One of my favorite quotes in life is, "Every master was once a disaster," first quoted by T. Harv Eker. No expert ever starts out an expert. Every expert had to learn how to be an expert. The Bible warns us in Zephaniah 4: 10 not to despise small beginnings. So start small. Believe that if God has called you to a certain purpose, He has equipped you to accomplish that purpose. And He will make good on His Word as long as you cooperate with Him by believing His Word. "Don't die with your package still unwrapped!" 4. Lack of knowledge to fulfill your purpose. Is lack of knowledge keeping you from fulfilling your life purpose? If so, don't let it. With today's technology, you can find the knowledge you need to accomplish God's purpose for your life. Pray, and God will send people your way to help you fulfill the destiny He gave you to fulfill. One of my great joys as a Certified Life Coach is helpi...

Creating A Business Culture to Better Serve Your Clients and Grow your Firm Welcome to episode 109 of the Grow Your Law Firm podcast, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode Ken sits down with Craig Goldenfarb and they talk about how creating a positive culture can better serve your clients and help to grow your business. While Mr. Goldenfarb is primarily occupied with building the teams that directly manage client cases, he is devoted to serving the legal needs of our “Critical Case” clients.

Nothing is ever normal at 19 Nocturne Boulevard. So when Olivia, our sultry announcer, decides to read the listeners a few of her favorite Xmas tales, things get a bit out of hand.

Do I sound like the type to offend with yet another rendition of A Christmas Carol?" **************************************************** A TRILOGY FOR CHRISTMAS Cast: Olivia SCRUTS Emily Wrackgarth Jos Wrackgarth Albert Grapp PC X36 Kipling Judlip Father Christmas THE FEAST Williams Mahamo ANNOUNCER The stories for tonight's show have been abridged and dramatized by Julie Hoverson OLIVIA Did you have any trouble finding it? Well sit right down. I want to read you my favorite Christmas stories. No, don't go! [disgusted] Oh, puh-lease! Do I seem the type to offend with yet another rendition of A Christmas Carol, or The night Before Christmas? Even the Velveteen Rabbit, which is a truly disturbing tale to any small child, is far too common for this house. MUSIC CREEPS IN OLIVIA Indulge me, won't you? I promise I won't disappoint. I have selected three of my most favorite Christmas tales to share with you, and even if one is a bit romantic and sentimental, well, you have to let me be girly sometimes, right? So - I'll get sentiment out of the way and move right into the more... meaty stories. The first story, then, is Scruts by Arnold Bennett MUSIC CHANGES OLIVIA Emily Wrackgarth stirred the Christmas pudding till her right arm began to ache. But she did not cease for that. SOUND KITCHEN, STIRRING OLIVIA She stirred on till her right arm grew so numb that it might have been the right arm of some girl at the other end of Bursley. And yet something deep down in her whispered EMILY [muttered] It is your right arm! And you can do what you like with it! OLIVIA She did what she liked with it. Relentlessly she kept it moving till it reasserted itself as the arm of Emily Wrackgarth, prickling and tingling as with red-hot needles in every tendon from wrist to elbow. And still Emily Wrackgarth hardened her heart. EMILY Mine. You are mine. OLIVIA Presently she saw the spoon no longer revolving, but wavering aimlessly in the midst of the basin. EMILY Ridiculous! This must be seen to! OLIVIA In the down of dark hairs that connected her eyebrows there was a marked deepening of that vertical cleft which, visible at all times, warned you that here was a young woman not to be trifled with. Her brain despatched to her hand a peremptory message—which miscarried. The spoon wabbled as though held by a baby. EMILY [exasperated noise] OLIVIA Emily knew that she herself as a baby had been carried into this very kitchen to stir the Christmas pudding. Year after year, as she grew up, she had been allowed to stir it "for luck." And those, she reflected, were the only cookery lessons she ever got. EMILY How like Mother! OLIVIA Mrs. Wrackgarth had died in the past year, of a complication of ailments. Emily still wore on her left shoulder that small tag of crape which is as far as the Five Towns go in the way of mourning. Her father had died in the year previous to that, of a still more curious and enthralling complication of ailments. Jos, his son, carried on the Wrackgarth Works, EMILY [interrupting] and I kept house for Jos. I with my own hand made this pudding. But for me, this pudding would not have been. Fantastic! Utterly incredible! OLIVIA [slightly miffed] And yet so it was. She was grown-up. She was mistress of the house. She could make or unmake puddings at will. And yet she was Emily Wrackgarth. Which was absurd. EMILY It is doubtful whether the people of southern England have even yet realised how much introspection there is going on all the time in the Five Towns. OLIVIA [ahem!] Emily was now stirring the pudding with her left hand. The ingredients had already been mingled indistinguishably in that rich, undulating mass of tawniness which proclaims perfection. But Emily was determined to give her left hand, not less than her right, what she called EMILY "a doing." OLIVIA Emily was like that. At mid-day, when her brother came home from the Works, she was still at it. EMILY Brought those scruts with you? JOS That's a fact. OLIVIA And he dipped his hand into the sagging pocket of his coat. It is perhaps necessary to explain what scruts are. In the daily output of every potbank there are a certain proportion of flawed vessels. These are cast aside by the foreman, EMILY with a lordly gesture, OLIVIA and in due course are hammered into fragments. These fragments, which are put to various uses, are called scruts; and one of the uses they are put to is a sentimental one. EMILY The dainty and luxurious Southerner looks to find in his Christmas pudding a wedding-ring, a gold thimble, a threepenny-bit, or the like. To such fal-lals the Five Towns would say fie. OLIVIA A Christmas pudding in the Five Towns contains nothing but suet, flour, lemon-peel, cinnamon, brandy, almonds, raisins—and two or three scruts. There is a world of poetry, beauty, romance, in scruts—though you have to have been brought up on them to appreciate it. Scruts have passed into the proverbial philosophy of the district. EMILY "Him's a pudden with more scruts than raisins to 'm" OLIVIA is a criticism not infrequently heard. It implies respect, even admiration. Of Emily Wrackgarth herself people often said, in reference to her likeness to her father, JOS "Her's a scrut o' th' owd basin." [realizing he cut in] Oh, Hmm. Pardon. OLIVIA Jos had emptied out from his pocket on to the table a good three dozen of scruts. EMILY I laid aside my spoon, rubbed the palms of my hands on the bib of my apron, and proceeded to finger these scruts with the air of a connoisseur, rejecting one after another. OLIVIA The pudding was a small one, designed merely for herself and Jos, with remainder to "the girl"; so that it could hardly accommodate more than two or three scruts. EMILY I knew well that one scrut is as good as another. Yet I did not want my brother to feel that anything selected by him would necessarily pass muster. OLIVIA For his benefit she ostentatiously wrinkled her nose. JOS By the by, you remember Albert Grapp? I've asked him to step over from Hanbridge and help eat our snack on Christmas Day. EMILY [incensed] You've asked that Mr. Grapp? JOS No objection, I hope? He's not a bad sort. And he's considered a bit of a ladies' man, you know. EMILY [incensed noise] SOUND CLATTER OF SCRUTS INTO BOWL OLIVIA Emily gathered up all the scruts and let them fall in a rattling shower on the exiguous pudding. Two or three fell wide of the basin. EMILY [vengefully] I made sure they all fit, too. JOS [alarmed] Steady on! What's that for? EMILY That's for your guest. And if you think you're going to palm me off on to him, or on to any other young fellow, you're a fool, Jos Wrackgarth! JOS I - I would never-- EMILY Don't think I don't know what you've been after, just of late. Cracking up one young sawny and then another on the chance of me marrying him! I never heard of such goings on. But here I am, and here I'll stay, as sure as my name's Emily Wrackgarth, Jos Wrackgarth! OLIVIA It is difficult to write calmly about Emily at this point. For her, in another age, ships would have been launched and cities besieged. But brothers are a race apart, and blind. It is a fact that Jos would have been glad to see his sister "settled" JOS [muttered] —preferably in one of the other four Towns. OLIVIA [chuckle] She took up the spoon and stirred vigorously. The scruts grated and squeaked together around the basin, while the pudding feebly wormed its way up among them. MUSIC CHANGES ALBERT [whispered] Is it me? Oh! [up] Albert Grapp, ladies' man though he was, was humble of heart. Nobody knew this but himself. OLIVIA Not one of his fellow clerks in Clither's Bank knew it. The general theory in Hanbridge was "Him's got a stiff opinion o' hisself." ALBERT But this arose from what was really a sign of humility in him. He made the most of himself. OLIVIA He had, for instance, a way of his own in the matter of dressing. He always wore a voluminous frock-coat, with a pair of neatly-striped vicuna trousers-- ALBERT --which he placed every night under his mattress, thus preserving in perfection the crease down the centre of each. OLIVIA He had two caps, one of blue serge, the other of shepherd's plaid. These he wore on alternate days. He wore them in a way of his own—well back from his forehead, so as not to hide his hair. OLIVIA On wet days he wore a mackintosh. This, as he did not yet possess a great-coat, he wore also, but with less glory, on cold days. ALBERT He had hoped there might be rain on Christmas morning. But there was no rain. [sigh, resigned] Like my luck. OLIVIA [whispered, urgent] Stop referring to yourself in the third person, no one else does. [back up] Since Jos Wrackgarth had introduced Albert to his sister at the Hanbridge Oddfellows' Biennial Hop, ALBERT when he -I- danced two quadrilles with her, OLIVIA --he had seen her but once. He had nodded to her, Five Towns fashion, and she had nodded back at him, but with a look that seemed to say-- EMILY You needn't nod next time you see me. I can get along well enough without your nods. ALBERT A frightening girl! And yet her brother had since told ...me... she seemed "a bit gone, like" on me! Impossible! He, Albert Grapp, make an impression on the brilliant Miss Wrackgarth! Yet she had sent him a verbal invite to spend Christmas in her own home. OLIVIA You're doing it again. ALBERT [oblivious, enchanted] And the time had come. He was on his way. Incredible that he should arrive! The tram must surely overturn, or be struck by lightning. And yet no! He arrived safely. OLIVIA [sigh] The small servant who opened the door gave him another verbal message from Miss Wrackgarth. [disapproving] Wipe your feet well on the mat. [narrating again] In obeying this order he experienced a thrill of satisfaction he could not account for. He must have stood shuffling his boots vigorously for a full minute. ALBERT This, he told himself, was life. He, Albert Grapp, was alive. And the world was full of other men, all alive; and yet, because they were not doing Miss Wrackgarth's bidding, none of them really lived. OLIVIA In the parlour he found Jos awaiting him. The table was laid for three. JOS So you're here, are you? OLIVIA Said the host, using the Five Towns formula. JOS Emily's in the kitchen. Happen she'll be here directly. ALBERT I hope she's tol-lol-ish? JOS She is. But don't you go saying that to her. She doesn't care about society airs and graces. You'll make no headway if you aren't blunt. ALBERT Oh, right you are. OLIVIA A moment later Emily joined them, still wearing her kitchen apron. EMILY So you're here, are you? OLIVIA She said, but did not shake hands. The servant had followed her in with the tray, and the next few seconds were occupied in the disposal of the beef and trimmings. The meal began, Emily carving. JOS [sigh] The main thought of a man less infatuated than Albert Grapp would have been "This girl can't cook. And she'll never learn to." The beef, instead of being red and brown, was pink and white. Uneatable beef! ALBERT [rapturizing] And yet he relished it more than anything he had ever tasted. This beef was her own handiwork. Thus it was because she had made it so.... [up] Happen I could do with a bit more, like. OLIVIA Emily hacked off the bit more and jerked it on to the plate he had held out to her. ALBERT Thanks! OLIVIA Only when the second course came on did he suspect that the meal was a calculated protest. This a Christmas pudding? The litter of fractured earthenware was hardly held together by the suet and raisins. ALBERT All his pride of manhood—and there was plenty of pride mixed up with Albert Grapp's humility—dictated a refusal to touch that pudding. Yet he soon found himself touching it, though gingerly, with spoon and fork. OLIVIA In the matter of dealing with scruts there are two schools—the old and the new. The old school pushes its head well over its plate and drops the scrut straight from its mouth. The new school emits the scrut into the fingers of its left hand and therewith deposits it on the rim of the plate. ALBERT Albert noticed that Emily was of the new school. OLIVIA Oh, I give up. ALBERT But might she not despise as affectation in him what came natural to herself? On the other hand, if he showed himself as a prop of the old school, might she not set her face the more stringently against him? OLIVIA The chances were that whichever course he took would be the wrong one. ALBERT It was then that he had an inspiration—an idea of the sort that comes to a man once in his life and finds him, likely as not, unable to put it into practice. OLIVIA Albert was not sure he could consummate this idea of his. He had indisputably fine teeth— JOS "a proper mouthful of grinders" OLIVIA in local phrase. But would they stand the strain he was going to impose on them? He could but try them. OLIVIA [con't] Without a sign of nervousness he raised his spoon, with one scrut in it, to his mouth. This scrut he put between two of his left-side molars, bit hard on it, and—eternity of that moment!—felt it and heard it snap in two. SOUND GRINDING, CRUNCHING ALBERT He was conscious that at sound of the percussion Emily started forward and stared at him. But he did not look at her. EMILY [amazed] That was none so dusty. [similar to "not too shabby"] OLIVIA Calmly, systematically, with gradually diminishing crackles, he reduced that scrut to powder, and washed the powder down with a sip of beer. SOUND DRINK OLIVIA While he dealt with the second scrut, he talked to Jos about the Borough Council's proposal to erect an electric power-station on the site of the old gas-works down Hillport way. ALBERT He was aware of a slight abrasion inside his left cheek. No matter. He must be more careful. OLIVIA There were six scruts still to be negotiated. ALBERT He knew that what he was doing was a thing grandiose, unique, epical; a history-making thing; a thing that would outlive marble and the gilded monuments of princes. Yet he kept his head. OLIVIA He did not hurry, nor did he dawdle. Scrut by scrut, he ground slowly but he ground exceeding small. ALBERT And while he did so he talked wisely and well. OLIVIA He passed from the power-station to a first edition he had picked up for sixpence in Liverpool, and thence to the Midland's proposal to drive a tunnel under the Knype Canal so as to link up the main-line with the Critchworth and Suddleford loop-line. JOS I was too amazed to put in a word, but sat merely gaping—a gape that merged by imperceptible degrees into a grin. Presently I ceased to watch our guest. I sat watching my sister. OLIVIA Not once did Albert himself glance in her direction. She was just a dim silhouette on the outskirts of his vision. ALBERT But there she was, unmoving, and he could feel the fixture of her unseen eyes. The time was at hand when he would have to meet those eyes. Would he flinch? Was he master of himself? GRINDING STOPS OLIVIA The last scrut was powder. No temporising! He jerked his glass to his mouth. ALBERT A moment later, holding out his plate to her, he looked Emily full in the eyes. They were Emily's eyes, but not hers alone. They were collective eyes—that was it! They were the eyes of stark, staring womanhood. OLIVIA Her face had been dead white, but now suddenly up from her throat, over her cheeks, through the down between her eyebrows, went a rush of colour, up over her temples, through the very parting of her hair. ALBERT [casual] Happen, I'll have a bit more, like. OLIVIA Emily flung her arms forward on the table and buried her face in them. EMILY [breaking into sobs] OLIVIA It was a gesture wild and meek. It was the gesture foreseen and yet incredible. It was recondite, inexplicable, and yet obvious. EMILY [aside, not teary] It was the only thing to be done—and yet, by gum, I had done it. [back to sobbing] OLIVIA Her brother had risen from his seat and was now at the door. JOS [pleased with himself] Think I'll step round to the Works, and see if they banked up that furnace aright. OLIVIA NOTE.—The author has in preparation a series of volumes dealing with the life of Albert and Emily Grapp. MUSIC BACK TO NEUTRAL OLIVIA Sweet romance, eh? Well, I've indulged my sentimental side, now how about some gritty policework? EMILY Hold up. You really think I'll get hitched over some fellow who sups pottery? OLIVIA That's how the story ends. And he's a good looking chap. EMILY And your accent is wretched. OLIVIA Go back to your story. EMILY Won't. OLIVIA Your story is over. Shut up. EMILY Can't make me - you're no better'n me - have ten toes and ten fingers just the same. OLIVIA I'll close the book, and then you'll be gone until someone else reads you - and you're far enough out of print, THAT won't happen any time soon. EMILY [annoyed, seething] Right. I'll sit here, then shall I? OLIVIA Don't care. Just keep quiet. [deep breath] My next tale is PC X-36, by Rudyard Kipling. JUDLIP Then it's collar 'im tight, In the name o' the Lawd! 'Ustle 'im, shake 'im till 'e's sick! Wot, 'e would, would 'e? Well, Then yer've got ter give 'im 'Ell, An' it's trunch, trunch, truncheon does the trick OLIVIA From police station ditties. EMILY Sounds like a donkey. OLIVIA Shh! KIPLING I had spent Christmas Eve at the Club, listening to a grand pow-wow between certain of the choicer sons of Adam. OLIVIA Hold on! I'm the one reading this story! KIPLING But I'm the narrator. EMILY Hear Hear. OLIVIA I'm the reader. You need to keep quiet. KIPLING You might have thought first before taking on a first person narrative, mightn't you? OLIVIA Well, I'll endeavor to sound like you. Now! Wait for your cue. [clears throat] Then Slushby had cut in. Slushby is one who writes to newspapers and is theirs obediently "HUMANITARIAN." When Slushby cuts in, men remember they have to be up early next morning. KIPLING Sharp round a corner on the way home, I collided with something firmer than the regulation pillar-box. OLIVIA [gritted teeth] I righted myself after the recoil and saw some stars that were very pretty indeed. Then I perceived the nature of the obstruction. KIPLING "Evening, Judlip," [quickly spitting out his descriptives] I said sweetly, when I had collected my hat from the gutter. "Have I broken the law, Judlip? If so, I'll go quiet." JUDLIP [Gruff] Time yer was in bed. Yer Ma'll be lookin' out for yer. KIPLING This from the friend -- OLIVIA Ahem! --of my bosom! It hurt. Many were the night-beats I had been privileged to walk with Judlip, imbibing curious lore that made glad the civilian heart of me. Seven whole 8x5 inch note-books had I pitmanised to the brim with Judlip. EMILY And now to be repulsed as one of the uninitiated! It hurt horrid. OLIVIA Don't you start in again! EMILY Hah! OLIVIA Don't! [back to the story] There is a thing called Dignity. Small boys sometimes stand on it. Then they have to be kicked. Then they get down, weeping. I don't stand on Dignity. KIPLING "What's wrong, Judlip?" I asked, more sweetly than ever. "Drawn a blank to-night?" JUDLIP Yuss. Drawn a blank blank blank. 'Avent 'ad so much as a kick at a lorst dorg. Christmas Eve ain't wot it was. KIPLING I felt for my note-book. JUDLIP Lawd! I remembers the time when the drunks and disorderlies down this street was as thick as flies on a fly-paper. One just picked 'em orf with one's finger and thumb. A bloomin' buffet, that's wot it wos. KIPLING "The night's yet young, Judlip," [quickly] I insinuated, with a jerk of my thumb at the flaring windows of the "Rat and Blood Hound." At that moment-- OLIVIA [Catching up] --the saloon-door swung open, emitting a man and woman who walked with linked arms and exceeding great care. EMILY [sarcastic] How sweet. OLIVIA Judlip eyed them longingly as they tacked up the street. Then he sighed. Now, when Judlip sighs the sound is like unto that which issues from the vent of a Crosby boiler when the cog-gauges are at 260 degrees. KIPLING "Come, Judlip!" I said. "Possess your soul in patience. You'll soon find someone to make an example of. Meanwhile"—I threw back my head and smacked my lips [he does] —"the usual, Judlip?" OLIVIA In another minute I emerged through the swing-door, bearing a furtive glass of that same "usual," and nipped down the mews where my friend was wont to await these little tokens of esteem. KIPLING "To the Majesty of the Law, Judlip!" OLIVIA When he had honoured the toast, I scooted back with the glass, leaving him wiping the beads off his beard-bristles. He was in his philosophic mood when I rejoined him at the corner. JUDLIP "Wot am I? [pronouncing] A bloomin' cypher. Wot's the sarjint? 'E's got the Inspector over 'im. Over above the Inspector there's the Sooprintendent. Over above 'im's the old red-tape-masticatin' Yard. Over above that there's the 'Ome Sec. Wot's 'e? A cypher, like me. Why? KIPLING Judlip looked up at the stars. JUDLIP Over above 'im's We Dunno Wot. Somethin' wot issues its horders an' regulations an' divisional injunctions, inscrootable like, but p'remptory; an' we 'as ter see as 'ow they're carried out, not arskin' no questions, but each man goin' about 'is dooty.' KIPLING "''Is dooty,'" said I, looking up from my note-book. "Yes, I've got that." JUDLIP Life ain't a bean-feast. It's a 'arsh reality. An' them as makes it a bean-feast 'as got to be 'arshly dealt with accordin'. That's wot the Force is put 'ere for from Above. Not as 'ow we ain't fallible. We makes our mistakes. An' when we makes 'em we sticks to 'em. For the honour o' the Force. Which same is the jool Britannia wears on 'er bosom as a charm against hanarchy. That's wot the brarsted old Beaks don't understand. Yer remember Smithers of our Div? KIPLING [takes breath, but is interupted] OLIVIA I remembered Smithers - well. As fine, upstanding, square-toed-- [hand over mouth] EMILY [Picking up quickly, but struggling slightly] bullet-headed, clean-living - go on! - son of a gun-- KIPLING Ta! --as ever perjured himself in the box. There was nothing of the softy about Smithers. I took off my billicock to Smithers' memory. JUDLIP Sacrificed to public opinion? Yuss, KIPLING Judlip paused at a front door, flashing his light down the slot of a two-grade Yale. JUDLIP Sacrificed to a parcel of screamin' old women wot ort ter 'ave gorn down on their knees an' thanked Gawd for such a protector. 'E'll be out in another 'alf year. JUDLIP Wot'll 'e do then, pore devil? Go a bust on 'is conduc' money an' throw in 'is lot with them same hexperts wot 'ad a 'oly terror of 'im. EMILY Then Judlip swore gently. KIPLING What should you do, O Great One, if ever it were your duty to apprehend him? JUDLIP Do? Why, yer blessed innocent, yer don't think I'd shirk a fair clean cop? Same time, I don't say as 'ow I wouldn't 'andle 'im tender like, for sake o' wot 'e wos. Likewise cos 'e'd be a stiff customer to tackle. Likewise 'cos— OLIVIA [muffled struggle] KIPLING He had broken off, and was peering fixedly upwards across the moonlit street. JUDLIP [drawn-out, hoarse whisper] Ullo! SOUND STRUGGLE OLIVIA [muffled, then deep breath] Back off! EMILY Hmph. [shrug] I made a good go. OLIVIA Striking an average between the direction of his eyes—for Judlip, when on the job, has a soul-stirring squint—I perceived someone in the act of emerging from a chimney-pot. Judlip's voice clove the silence. JUDLIP Wot are yer doin' hup there? OLIVIA The person addressed came to the edge of the parapet. KIPLING I saw then that he had a hoary white beard, a red ulster with the hood up, and what looked like a sack over his shoulder. OLIVIA He said something or other in a voice like a concertina that has been left out in the rain. EMILY [muttered] Not so very hard to pass it round, is it? JUDLIP I dessay. Just you come down, an' we'll see about that. OLIVIA The old man nodded and smiled. Then—as I hope to be saved—he came floating gently down through the moonlight, with the sack over his shoulder and a young fir-tree clasped to his chest. He alighted in a friendly manner on the curb beside us. EMILY Come along - let us have a go! KIPLING Judlip was the first to recover himself. Out went his right arm-- EMILY --and the airman was slung round by the scruff of the neck, spilling his sack in the road. KIPLING I made a bee-line for his shoulder-blades. Burglar or no burglar, he was the best airman out, and I was muchly desirous to know the precise nature of the apparatus under his ulster. OLIVIA Fine. Let's just keep it moving - A back-hander from Judlip's left caused me to hop quickly aside. The prisoner was squealing and whimpering. He didn't like the feel of Judlip's knuckles at his cervical vertebræ. JUDLIP Wot wos yer doin' hup there? EMILY asked Judlip, tightening the grip. SANTA CLAUS I'm S-Santa Claus, Sir. P-please, Sir, let me g-go.. KIPLING "Hold him," I shouted. "He's a German." JUDLIP It's my dooty ter caution yer that wotever yer say now may be used in hevidence against yer, yer old sinner. Pick up that there sack, an' come along o' me. EMILY The captive snivelled something about peace on earth, good will toward men. JUDLIP Yuss. That's in the Noo Testament, ain't it? The Noo Testament contains some uncommon nice readin' for old gents an' young ladies. But it ain't included in the librery o' the Force. We confine ourselves to the Old Testament — O-T, 'ot. An' 'ot you'll get it. Hup with that sack, an' quick march! OLIVIA I have seen worse attempts at a neck-wrench, but it was just not slippery enough for Judlip. EMILY And the kick that Judlip then let fly was a thing of beauty and a joy for ever. KIPLING "Frog's-march him!" I shrieked, dancing. "For the love of heaven, frog's-march him!" OLIVIA Trotting by Judlip's side to the Station, I reckoned it out that if Slushby had not been at the Club I should not have been here to see. ALL Which shows that even Slushbys are put into this world for a purpose. MUSIC CHANGES OLIVIA Oh, this is just getting silly. EMILY Only just? I should have said it's been a laugh for several miles. KIPLING D'you have some problem with a bit of a laugh? OLIVIA The third story I want to read is very serious. If this goes on, I won't be able to do it justice. EMILY What is it then? OLIVIA The Feast. By Joseph Conrad. KIPLING Conrad? He wrote a Christmas story? EMILY Who is this Conrad fellow? KIPLING Wrote something called heart of Darkness. OLIVIA Yes, yes, yes! Look, it's ruined now. I'm just going to give up and read The Night before Christmas. EMILY [disgusted noise] KIPLING That sentimental pap? OLIVIA [huffy] The mood is gone. EMILY AND KIPLING [whisper in the background] EMILY We might-- KIPLING Let me! EMILY I don't think so! [annoyed grunt] Look you! - um - I think we've not been introduced? OLIVIA [sulky] Olivia. EMILY Right. Olivia. Why not let us help read the story. We can do that well enough, can't we? KIPLING Certainly. OLIVIA And keep the comments to a minimum? KIPLING Well... EMILY I'll box his ears for you if he steps across the line. OLIVIA It's worth a try. MUSIC TURNS TROPICAL OLIVIA The hut in which slept the white man was on a clearing between the forest and the river. EMILY Silence, the silence murmurous and unquiet of a tropical night, brooded over the hut that, baked through by the sun, sweated a vapour beneath the cynical light of the stars. KIPLING Mahamo lay rigid and watchful at the hut's mouth. In his upturned eyes, and along the polished surface of his lean body black and immobile, the stars were reflected, creating an illusion of themselves who are illusions. OLIVIA The roofs of the congested trees, writhing in some kind of agony private and eternal, made tenebrous and shifty silhouettes against the sky, like shapes cut out of black paper by a maniac who pushes them with his thumb this way and that, irritably, on a concave surface of blue steel. EMILY Resin oozed unseen from the upper branches to the trunks swathed in creepers that clutched and interlocked with tendrils venomous, frantic and faint. KIPLING Down below, by force of habit, the lush herbage went through the farce of growth—that farce old and screaming, whose trite end is decomposition. [aside] Optimist, eh? Ouch! OLIVIA Ssh. Within the hut the form of the white man, corpulent and pale, was covered with a mosquito-net that was itself illusory like everything else, only more so. Flying squadrons of mosquitoes inside its meshes flickered and darted over him, working hard, but keeping silence so as not to excite him from sleep. EMILY [with distaste] Cohorts of yellow ants disputed him against cohorts of purple ants, the two kinds slaying one another in thousands. KIPLING [avid] The battle was undecided when suddenly, with no such warning as it gives in some parts of the world, the sun blazed up over the horizon, turning night into day, and the insects vanished back into their camps. OLIVIA The white man ground his knuckles into the corners of his eyes, emitting that snore final and querulous of a middle-aged man awakened rudely. With a gesture brusque but flaccid he plucked aside the net and peered around. EMILY The bales of cotton cloth, the beads, the brass wire, the bottles of rum, had not been spirited away in the night. So far so good. KIPLING The faithful servant of his employers was now at liberty to care for his own interests. He regarded himself, passing his hands over his skin. WILLIAMS [shouted] Hi! Mahamo! I've been eaten up. OLIVIA The islander, with one sinuous motion, sprang from the ground, through the mouth of the hut. Then, after a glance, he threw high his hands in thanks to such good and evil spirits as had charge of his concerns. In a tone half of reproach, half of apology, he murmured— MAHAMO You white men sometimes say strange things that deceive the heart. WILLIAMS Reach me that ammonia bottle, d'you hear? This is a pretty place you've brought me to! Christmas Day, too! Of all the —— But I suppose it seems all right to you, you heathen, to be here on Christmas Day? MAHAMO We are here on the day appointed, Mr. Williams. It is a feast-day of your people? OLIVIA Mr. Williams had lain back, with closed eyes, on his mat. Nostalgia was doing duty to him for imagination. EMILY He was wafted to a bedroom in Marylebone, where in honour of the Day he lay late dozing, with great contentment; outside, a slush of snow in the street, the sound of church-bells; from below a savour of especial cookery. [chuckles a bit] WILLIAMS Yes, it's a feast-day of my people. MAHAMO Of mine also. WILLIAMS [disinterested] Is it though? But they'll do business first? MAHAMO They must first do that. WILLIAMS And they'll bring their ivory with them? MAHAMO Every man will bring ivory. OLIVIA The islander answered with a smile gleaming and wide. WILLIAMS How soon'll they be here? MAHAMO Has not the sun risen? They are on their way. WILLIAMS Well, I hope they'll hurry. The sooner we're off this cursed island of yours the better. Take all those things out-- OLIVIA Mr. Williams added, pointing to the merchandise. WILLIAMS --and arrange them. Neatly, mind you! KIPLING In certain circumstances it is right that a man be humoured in trifles. Mahamo, having borne out the merchandise, arranged it very neatly. OLIVIA While Mr. Williams made his toilette, the sun and the forest, careless of the doings of white and black men alike, waged their warfare implacable and daily. The forest from its inmost depths sent forth perpetually its legions of shadows that fell dead in the instant of exposure to the enemy whose rays heroic and absurd its outposts annihilated. EMILY What's all this to do with Christmas? KIPLING Want me to cuff her one? OLIVIA It takes place on Christmas day - they already said that. EMILY But this is all jungle creepers and spooky shadows - and vermins. If there's one thing that doesn't come to my mind when I think of Christmas, it's ants and mosquitoes and such. KIPLING You should see some of the places I've been. OLIVIA Why don't we just finish the story? KIPLING There came from those inilluminable depths the equable rumour of myriads of winged things and crawling things newly roused to the task of killing and being killed. Thence detached itself, little by little, an insidious sound of a drum beaten. This sound drew more near. [aside] A-ha, I see where this is going. Drums in the distance are never a good sign. EMILY [huffy] Maybe I haven't traveled all over the great wide world, fellow, but even I can probably guess at that. DRUMS SNEAK IN OLIVIA Mr. Williams, issuing from the hut, heard it, and stood gaping towards it. WILLIAMS Is that them? MAHAMO That is they. OLIVIA The islander murmured, moving away towards the edge of the forest. EMILY Does he not notice? What sort of a dullard is he? [calling to williams] Do you have a gun? OLIVIA [exasperated sigh] KIPLING Calm down, it's just a story. EMILY Don't go telling me when to calm down! I just hate stories where stupid people do very stupid things - what possessed this fool to sail half round the world anyway? OLIVIA [resigned, trying to get it back on track] Sounds of chanting were a now audible accompaniment to the drum. WILLIAMS What's that they're singing? MAHAMO [off a bit] They sing of their business. WILLIAMS [shocked] Oh! I'd have thought they'd be singing of their feast. MAHAMO It is of their feast they sing. OLIVIA It has been stated that Mr. Williams was not imaginative. WILLIAMS Oh, I say--! OLIVIA Oh, no! You stay put! KIPLING [very knowingly] But a few years of life in climates alien and intemperate had disordered his nerves. There was that in the rhythms of the hymn which made bristle his flesh. EMILY Suddenly, when they were very near, the voices ceased, leaving a legacy of silence more sinister than themselves. And now the black spaces between the trees were relieved by bits of white that were the eyeballs and teeth of Mahamo's brethren. MAHAMO It was of their feast, it was of you, they sang. EMILY I knew it! KIPLING It was obvious. WILLIAMS Look here--! OLIVIA Cried Mr. Williams in his voice of a man not to be trifled with. WILLIAMS --Look here, if you've— SOUND JAVELIN HIT OLIVIA He was silenced by sight of what seemed to be a young sapling sprung up from the ground within a yard of him—a young sapling tremulous, with a root of steel. KIPLING Then a thread-like shadow skimmed the air, and another spear came impinging the ground within an inch of his feet. EMILY As he turned in his flight he saw the goods so neatly arranged at his orders, and there flashed through him, even in the thick of the spears, the thought that he would be a grave loss to his employers. OLIVIA This—for Mr. Williams was, not less than the goods, of a kind easily replaced—was an illusion. It was the last of Mr. Williams illusions. MOMENT OF SILENCE EMILY So what shall we do now? SOUND LARGE BOOK SHUTS DECISIVELY, CUTTING HER OFF OLIVIA Happy Holidays, all - wherever and whatever they may be. CLOSER OLIVIA Now that you know how to find us, you'll have to come back. Maybe next week? Don't be a stranger - we have enough of those already...

In the fourth installment of our miniseries "Sri Lanka: Debt, Development, and Democracy?", we interview incumbent State Minister of Regional Cooperation Tharaka Balasuriya to get the Government's take on economic diplomacy, U.S.-China, and the response to the United Nations Human Rights Council initiatives against Sri Lanka. Mr. Balasuriya, whose role is new and similar to that of a Deputy Foreign Minister with a regional focus, gives his take on the state of Sri Lankan foreign policy under the Rajapaksa Government, first discussing Sri Lanka's regional relations, highlighting ties with India. The State Minister disputes the notion that the Rajapaksa Government is 'pro-China', blames the previous government for the 99-year lease on the Hambantota Port, but does assert that China has been helpful to Sri Lanka's economic priorities. Balasuriya outlines why the Sri Lankan Government rejected the U.S. Millennium Challenge Compact (a proposed deal which was the subject of a visit to Sri Lanka by former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo a week before the 2020 Presidential Election), while asserting that U.S.-Sri Lankan relations are good, and asserting that Sri Lanka wants to maintain geopolitical neutrality. The State Minister rounds out the conversation with his response to initiatives by the United Nations Human Rights Council that have sought to bring about accountability with regards to the controversial ending of the Sri Lankan Civil War -- initiatives which were rejected on the day of our interview by Sri Lankan Foreign Minister G. L. Peiris, Mr. Balasuriya's immediate superior.While Mr. Balasuriya provides the Government's perspective on these key foreign policy issues, you can hear from other voices in the miniseries (and also hear A'ndre and Ryan's reactions to the interviews) via the links below:Episode 1: Journalist Uditha Jayasinghe on the State of Sri Lanka's Political and Economic LandscapeEpisode 2: Former Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe on U.S.-China, Domestic Governance, and Political TurmoilEpisode 3: Tamil National Alliance MP Shanakiyan Rasamanickam on Post-War Reconciliation and Political EnfranchisementEpisode 4: State Minister of Regional Cooperation Tharaka Balasuriya on Economic Diplomacy, U.S.-China, and the UNHRC
Upcoming Prime Video release “The Diabolical Schemes of Thadeus Jackson” by award-winning director Brandon Crowson is a new-age indie superhero movie that has already won several awards at prestigious film festivals. August 13, 2021: A new indie superhero movie is making big waves in the esteemed film festivals across the world. Titled “The Diabolical Schemes of Thadeus Jackson”, the movie has earned rave reviews from critics and has also won as many as 9 awards in 3 countries, including 3 best action/adventure film awards in various film festivals. The film will be released shortly on Prime Video in the coming month. “The Diabolical Schemes of Thadeus Jackson” is scheduled to have its Premiere on September 2, 2021, at the Parkway Theater, Minneapolis. Following the Premiere, the film will be officially released on Prime Video worldwide and DVD September 3, 2021. Tickets to the premiere are on sale now! The award-winning indie superhero film is directed by Minneapolis-based award-winning filmmaker Brandon Crowson, with Sean Simmons, Nathan Cade, and Madeline Fleming in major roles. Shot in the summer of 2018, the film was produced and organized as a profit sharing arrangement between Son Of A Crow Productions in Minneapolis, Green Screen Studios in St. Paul, and dozens of artists in the Twin Cities area- under the able leadership of writer-director-producer Brandon Crowson. “The Diabolical Schemes of Thadeus Jackson'' revolves around the story of Thadeus Jackson, played by Sean Simmons. Jackson plays the role of a former NSA Agent who is out on a mission to kill The Supremacist, Defender of Capitalism and The American Way, and is ready to risk it all to make the world a better place. Indie actor Nathan Cade portrays the role of The Supremacist here while Madeline Fleming dons the character of Madeline the Telekinetic. Speaking of the film, Crowson revealed that the movie was inspired by the ethos of strong protest against the ongoing oppression and brutality directed at people of color. Interestingly, the film comes with a unique approach towards the treatment of its hero and villain that has broken the stereotypical outlook towards “heroes” and “villains” in a film. The protagonist of the movie isn't a hero at all but a man seeking revenge against forces far more powerful than he is. On the other hand, the villain in the film is being reported by the media as a “superhero”, whose crimes have been inspired by specific instances of police brutality. “I was tired of going to Black Lives Matter protests that don't change anything- so I decided to channel my anger into my second film.”, stated Brandon when asked what inspired the film. There's a scene in the movie where The Supremacist chokes a black man to death while giving a long winded "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" speech. The character's last words are "I can't breathe." Per the statements of the award-winning director, that scene was supposed to be a nod to Eric Garner, whose last words were "I can't breathe”, when he was murdered by the NYPD in 2014. While Mr. Crowson was editing the climax of the film, George Floyd was killed by the Minneapolis Police 1.5 miles from Mr. Crowson's home. His last words also being, “I can't breathe.” “I made this film as a dark humored social commentary about various serious issues that have only gotten worse in the time it took me to edit the film. That's the America I live in.” “The Diabolical Schemes of Thadeus Jackson” had its theatrical world premiere on May 1, 2021, in Green Bay, Wisconsin, at the MLC Awards where it won the awards of Best Action/Adventure Film and Best of the Semester. Actor Joseph Gainer won Best Scene Stealing Actor while Actress Andi Hanson won Best Scene Stealing Actress at that same festival. The film has also won the award of Best Action Feature Film at Another Hole In The Head Presents: Warped Dimension, San Francisco's longest running genre film festival. It has further been acknowledged with the award of “Best Action Film” at the Spring Grove Caledonia Film Festival as well. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
“The object of a new year,” quipped G. K. Chesterton, “is not that we should have a new year, but that we should have a new soul.” While Mr. Chesterton probably had January 1st in mind, anyone in education—including students and parents—knows that the new year begins when school begins and our Wyoming Catholic College students are now in their second week of classes. A week ago Sunday, as our freshmen matriculated at Wyoming Catholic College, thus beginning a new year, President Glenn Arbery and Dean Kyle Washut had some words of wisdom and encouragement. Last week's podcast featured Dr. Arbery's thoughts. This week, we'll turn to Dean Washut as he discusses a distinctly Wyoming phenomenon all students has experience on their 21-day backpacking expedition: snow in August.
Brian Greenberg and Cameron Laghaeian argue the point that individually encrypting each entity in a database storing personal information is the only true way to stop ransomware attacks that have exfiltrated data and threaten to release it. While Mr. Backup likes the idea, there was a pretty heated discussion on this episode, because he believes that doing this will roll back all advancements in backup in the last twenty years. Thanks to an olive branch from Cameron, though, they may have come to a hybrid solution that makes both sides happy. This is a great episode with heated discussion and good news for companies trying to protect themselves from ransomware attacks that include exfiltration of data.
Mr. Mark Nixon is a beloved and longtime principal of Moccasin Elementary school. While Mr. Nixon isn't from the area originally, you'd never know it by the impact he's made on multiple generations of Bucks. After a unique start in education out West, Mr. Nixon applied for a job in Buchanan in 1986 and, having never heard of it before, wasn't sure what he was going to find when he moved his family here to become part of the community. It's a move that the whole town is glad he made, because he spent the next 30 plus years giving back to students, community organizations, and the school farm. In this episode we talk maple syrup, tractor mishaps, and his philosophy on what kids need.

Jeff Rasley, a committed philanthropist and social activist, joins T. J. O'Hara, host of Deconstructed, to discuss his new book, America's Existential Crisis: Our Inherited Obligation to Native Nations. Mr. Rasley, the author of 11 books, describes how he was drawn to examine the plight of Native Americans through two unique family ties as well as a visit to the Black Hills. Mr. Rasley's ancestry includes a relative who was in command of K Troop for the 7th Cavalry the day it participated in the Battle of Wounded Knee – one of the largest massacres in our Nation's military history. Meanwhile, his great, great-grandfather was establishing a warm relationship with the Potawatomi tribe, who presented him with a beautiful, beaded vest in gratitude for his helping them survive a particularly harsh winter. This paradox led Mr. Rasley to explore the challenges Native Americans have experienced since that time. He even visited the Black Hills and Wounded Knee to gain a personal perspective, and what he saw was alarming. What makes his book (and this interview) special is that Mr. Rasley doesn't just summarize what Native Americans have suffered, he offers solutions. He believes empathy isn't enough and that a better approach might be “gratitude tinged with regret” to acknowledge and address how we all have benefitted at the expense of Native Americans. Mr. Rasley discusses the concept of unjust enrichment as a basis for asserting a claim and how U.S. Courts have supported the enforceability of treaties that have been broken in the past. He also describes an approach to resolve past wrongs through principles of cultural sensitivity that he developed to help the residents of Basa (a remote village in Nepal) solve critical infrastructure issues that government efforts had failed to improve. He knows that the past cannot be changed, but he offers hope to improve the future. While Mr. Rasley recommends the formation of a Victims' Compensation Fund of some kind, he falls short of fully endorsing reparations. T. J. concludes the interview by reviewing elements of the Native American story that might stand in the way of a reparations argument while joining Mr. Rasley in his hope that we find a way to treat Native Americans with respect and ensure that they are provided with the equal opportunities they have been denied in the past. Many minorities have suffered inequities in the past. Native Americans may very well be at the top of that list. Listen to the interview to learn more.

What was the first toy ever advertised on television? It was Hasbro’s Mr. Potato Head and that commercial debuted way back in 1952. A lot has changed in our culture since then. And in an effort to keep up with our culture’s increased value on diversity and inclusion, the brand recently announced that the designation “Mister” is being dropped from the brand’s name. Hasbro says this is being done so that all people would feel welcome in the Potato head world. While Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head will still be sold, the company is displaying the titles less prominently on the packaging. The company will also debut a new Potato family pack that comes with two large bodies, one small body and forty-two accessories. Kids will be able to create their own types of potato families, including those with two moms or two dads. While it’s not popular these days to say that God’s good design for marriage is between one man and one woman, we must be actively pointing out kids to God’s design.
A Reading of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. - Letter from a Birmingham JailJoin us every Thursday of this Black History month to capture readings from the famous letter from Birmingham jail. Carl Jones, voiceover actor will be reading portions of the passionate letter that helps us to see the importance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s message and impact. So much of what he states in this letter is applicable for today as we wrestle again with the fight against racial injustice, Dr. King and his associates had some major approaches that we today can learn from and solve many issues that have already been faced before. We celebrate Dr. King and his legacy with his own words read aloud to be remember for years to come. The Words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr:"One of the basic points in your statement is that the action that I and my associates have taken in Birmingham is untimely. Some have asked: "Why didn't you give the new city administration time to act?" The only answer that I can give to this query is that the new Birmingham administration must be prodded about as much as the outgoing one, before it will act. We are sadly mistaken if we feel that the election of Albert Boutwell as mayor will bring the millennium to Birmingham. While Mr. Boutwell is a much more gentle person than Mr. Connor, they are both segregationists, dedicated to maintenance of the status quo. I have hope that Mr. Boutwell will be reasonable enough to see the futility of massive resistance to desegregation. But he will not see this without pressure from devotees of civil rights. My friends, I must say to you that we have not made a single gain in civil rights without determined legal and nonviolent pressure. Lamentably, it is an historical fact that privileged groups seldom give up their privileges voluntarily. Individuals may see the moral light and voluntarily give up their unjust posture; but, as Reinhold Niebuhr has reminded us, groups tend to be more immoral than individuals.We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. Frankly, I have yet to engage in a direct action campaign that was "well timed" in the view of those who have not suffered unduly from the disease of segregation. For years now I have heard the word "Wait!" It rings in the ear of every Negro with piercing familiarity. This "Wait" has almost always meant "Never." We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists, that "justice too long delayed is justice denied."Taken from full text from a "Letter from a Birmingham Jail: by Martin Luther King, Jr.Episodes Edited by: Juels N.

Faith, Family, And Fundamentals With Fran Podcast > Episode 37: Stand Back But Stand By > < Isaiah 9:6 advises us “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder…” Just remember, Jesus' shoulder bore the wound of the cross leading up to his crucifixion, and today, his shoulders bear the burden of the government over which He is the ‘Wonderful Counselor.' He who has the government upon His shoulder rules in the midst of His enemies. While Mr. Donald Trump has committed treason, God commands us to still love and pray for him. In the wise words of Delaware Representative, Lisa Blunt Rochester, “Love is not easy; not just some Pollyanna notion, but if you believe like I believe, Love each other, Love this country and above all else, Love God.” There remains a whole lot to be said, and even more to be done, for the healing of our government, and repairing of our Nation. However, loving God represents the beginning and the conclusion of the whole matter. Stand back and pray. Stand by, and watch God! < < “First Listen” Stream - Wednesdays At 9 PM ET – www.castropolis.net . .

Today on The Leaders' Brief - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was the latest high-profile name targeted by an unknown group of hackers who call themselves John Wick. While Mr. Modi's personal account, with 61.8 million followers, remained unaffected, the Twitter account of his official website, which has about 2.5 million followers, was hacked. Italy's Competition Authority (AGCM) said that it had started six investigations on Google Drive, Apple iCloud, and the Dropbox cloud storage service over complaints of unfair practices related to the collection of user data for commercial purposes. Latvian startup Lokalise, which provides a software-as-a-service product to help businesses improve workflow and processes when there is a need to update text in different languages, raises $6 million in funding.

On May 25, 2018, Indiana middle school teacher Jason Seaman tackled a student who had asked to be excused from class at Noblesville Middle School West, then returned with two handguns and opened fire. Seaman, who was wounded by gunfire and per accounts appears to be on his way to a “full” recovery and was released from the hospital shortly after the shooting. HERO. Jason Seaman is a hero. He arguably meets three of the four criteria set forth in the Merriam-Webster dictionary of: (1) an illustrious warrior; (2) a person admired for achievements and noble qualities; and (3) one who shows great courage. He put his life before those of his students and exercised discretion to engage the shooter as he deemed that he had an opportunity to either interrupt or terminate this situation. In this instance, his decision ended a potential rampage. RUN-HIDE-FIGHT. While Mr. Seaman's actions appear justified and validated by the outcome, they do, never-the-less, go against the frequently-recited school safety directive of “Run-Hide-Fight.” There are now two approaches to school safety in the United States. The first, and the one fueled by emotion over empiricism, is to fortify or fight the intruder. The second camp focuses on improving threat detection and threat reporting and lockdown drills that center getting behind a locked a door or concealing into the environment. Most school shootings conclude by 8-minutes after onset. It is also uncommon for the school shooter to blast his way into a locked interior room – instead opting to find an unlocked door or individuals in an open area. 10 YEARS AGO. A decade ago, few schools would have practiced or openly endorsed an unarmed adult confronting an armed gunman. The protocol was for the adult to bring students into a secured area and wait for the police to enter the building and neutralize or the shooter (or the shooter to take his own life). We also tend to operate too much on the sole shooter scenario – just saying. So, Jason Seaman tackles a school shooter and the argument for “arming teachers” and “swarming an intruder” receive a boost of “this is the right approach” and although it “worked” in this specific situation, is this an approach that will become the expectation for educators? APOTHEOSIS – POP CULTURE IS ALL ABOUT THE HERO. I want to preface this by stating I am not throwing shade onto Mr. Seaman. My oldest daughter is in middle school and I would be indebted to someone that intervened to try to save her life. Of no doing of his own, Jason Seaman has been raised to the level of a deity (AKA, apotheosis). Seaman was given a new car; he's received countless awards and will be a parade marshal. No doubt that a book deal and perhaps a movie will follow. He's famous. Everything that has and is happening with Mr. Seaman creates society's image for today's teacher. Society loves the hero – Batman, The Incredibles, Avengers, Captain America, etc. Just check the listings at your local box office. THE LASTING EFFECT OF THE TACKLE. Undoubtedly, more school districts will embrace an aggressive response to a school shooter. This will transfer into school safety trainings, which are already para-military in their design. DIRECT CAUSE vs. ROOT CAUSE. Mr. Seaman addressed a direct cause. The root cause of why this student brought handguns to school and fired upon others – the root cause of why this wasn't detected and then reported, will be countered with, “Does it really matter? The teacher took out the bad guy.” I conducted a search in Google Scholar with the terms “School Threat” + “Reporting”. Sadly, it returned only 14 results. FOLLOW DR.

The Swinging Lifestyle is supposed to be all about acceptance, the one place where you can feel safe being honest about who you are. Yet we contend there is significant bias in the swinging Lifestyle when it comes to Bisexuality. Many women tell us that if they don't put Bi or Bi-Curious in their profiles, they significantly less interest. Worse, many women tell us that, even if they say they are straight, they still feel pressure to play with other women, as if there is something wrong with them if they don't enjoy F/F play. But it's much worse on the side of men. While Mr. Tango is not Bi, many couples have told us that, if the man says in his profile that he is Bi or Bi curious, even though he may say that is completely optional, the number of couples willing to play with them plummets. We also give all manner of signals that, while women playing with women is expected and welcome and hot, no one in the LS wants to SEE a Bi man interacting with another man. Many clubs ban that activity in public rooms, and it's just understood in the LS that such play is not acceptable where others can see it (unless in a specially designated and segregated Bi Male Couples playroom.) We love that our Swinging Lifestyle is so open to everyone and every kink. But we feel like we need to talk about this bias, and yes, bigotry, in the Lifestyle that prides itself on being so open and accepting.

This week, we watched Mr. Deeds (2002). We tried to talk about it, too. We really did. While Mr. Deeds isn't an outwardly offensive movie, it has all the individual pieces that make it a terrible film. In talking about this film, we get a little distracted talking about movies that came out that same year. Like how did this come out the same year that Minority Report and The Bourne Identity? Speaking of...
Mr. Gershon Ben Keren is a Krav Maga instructor, author and school owner. Mr. Gershon Gen Keren - Episode 114 It really doesn't matter how you solve that problem, whether you solve that problem by picking up an improvised weapon, whether you solve that problem through de-escalation or you solve it through disengagement. Frequent listeners know that we try to bring on people from different martial arts. It's important to be a well-rounded martial artist, and part of that involves learning about the different perspectives that different martial artists have - especially those that train in less-common arts. While we've had a few guests on the show that trained in Krav Maga, none of them have defined themselves as Krav Maga practitioners. And until recently, I wasn't even aware of how old Krav Maga was. So, when Mr. Gershon Ben Keren came to my attention as Krav Maga practitioner who started training long before the current wave, he seemed the perfect candidate to have on the show. While Mr. Ben Keren isn't here to represent Krav Maga, being the first person steeped in that art on the show carried a bit of responsibility with it. I was very honest with him of this, but also let him know that the episode was about him and not his chosen art. I think we both did a good job of placing him first but also giving you some information on the history of the style, which was important in giving you context for our guest. I really enjoyed getting to know Mr. Ben Keren, and with his school only a few hours away, it's just a matter of time before I pop by for a visit. Let's welcome him to the show. whistlekick Shin Guards Today's featured product is our shin guard - without a doubt the best foam shin guards available.
