Why Science Is Pointing Back to God. Dr. Stephen Meyer. ACU Saturday Series. For decades, we've been told that science and faith are incompatible that the more we understand the universe, the less room there is for God. In this interview, we explore the latest discoveries in cosmology, physics, and biology from the Big Bang to DNA and how they reveal a universe that looks designed. What if modern science isn't disproving God, but actually pointing us back to Him?

Don and Tom highlight what may be today's biggest stock market bargain: small-cap value stocks, which have drastically underperformed large-cap growth and now appear poised for long-term reversion to the mean. They explain why chasing big winners like Nvidia and Apple could backfire, and why broad diversification with a tilt toward small and value still makes sense. Callers get help with tax drag from old mutual funds, switching from expensive active funds to ETFs, household asset allocation, Roth conversions, and whether to sell a large single-stock inheritance. The show wraps with a well-deserved swipe at Jordan Belfort's shameless self-promotion. 0:05 Don kicks things off with a musical flashback: The Who's “Bargain” sets the tone for a segment on what may be today's biggest investing bargain—small value stocks. 2:00 The S&P 500 has averaged 13.2% annually since 2014; small caps lag at 7.2%. Investors are fleeing small-cap ETFs just as they may be poised for reversion to the mean. 3:30 The top five stocks in the S&P 500 are now five times larger than the entire Russell 2000. That kind of imbalance can't last forever. 5:08 Historically, small-cap value has outperformed large growth by ~4% annually over 100 years—yet most investors are overexposed to U.S. large-cap growth. 8:08 Instead of market timing, build a balanced portfolio based on your risk tolerance. Consider overweighting small and value, but don't ditch large caps entirely. 9:23 Even the worst year for small caps (2008, -34%) wasn't as bad as the S&P's peak-to-trough crash (-57%). Diversification isn't just smart—it's safer. 10:23 For equity allocation: a 1/3 split between large U.S., small U.S., and international may be simple, but effective. 11:59 Eugene from Baltimore has a $5M+ portfolio generating massive taxable income. Don and Tom recommend municipal bonds and more tax-efficient ETFs. 17:45 Mutual fund to ETF conversions (like those offered by Vanguard and Dimensional) could reduce Eugene's tax bill without triggering capital gains. 22:43 BJ from San Antonio holds a pricey Invesco fund (SMMIX) full of big tech—essentially a closet index fund with an 0.85% fee. Time to switch to low-cost, diversified ETFs. 25:38 Vanguard's VUG offers the same exposure with more holdings and a 0.04% fee—plus it's transparent, predictable, and consistent. 28:43 Ron in Lakeland wonders if he should copy his wife's ETFs. If your household has a unified asset allocation plan, identical holdings across accounts are fine. 31:27 Jerry from Lacey, WA asks whether to keep doing Roth conversions or start Social Security now. Don and Tom advise continuing tax-efficient conversions, possibly up to the 22% bracket, but not beyond. Also watch out for income thresholds that affect benefits like the $6K tax rebate. 35:46 Sherry (dropped call) inherited $4M in Microsoft. Diversify! But do it with a tax strategy and professional help. 36:49 Don reacts to a nauseating LinkedIn post by Jordan Belfort, reminding us that glorifying financial predators only feeds industry corruption.

Don and Tom dive into the new “big, beautiful” tax bill with humor and skepticism, covering changes to Social Security taxation, tips and overtime exemptions, expanded SALT deductions, and the controversial $1,000 baby bonus. They also tackle listener questions on Roth vs. IRA asset protection, portfolio rebalancing confusion, and lazy robo-advisory allocations. Bonus: helium speculation, trade school love, and a jab at politicians who pander. 0:04 Intro: “Dearly beloved…” it's tax time 1:10 Overview of the “Big Beautiful Bill” and $4T impact 1:25 Tips and OT tax exemptions starting in 2025 2:09 Social Security tax break: $6K per person if under income limits 3:28 Standard deduction and new child tax credits 4:13 $1,000 newborn savings account—free government money 5:17 SALT deduction expanded to $40K for four years 6:44 Property and sales tax deductions clarified 7:48 Guilt over tax breaks? Try a Roth gift for the grandkids 8:27 The “kid account” vs. 529 plans vs. UGMA 10:58 Trade school > AI: real jobs that can't be outsourced 12:42 Don rants on political pandering in the bill 13:47 Listener Q1: 401(k) rollover and asset protection in Washington 16:17 IRA protections state-by-state 16:52 Listener Q2: Does rebalancing mean switching investments? 18:34 Rebalancing means returning to plan, not chasing trends 20:04 Show plug: Owen Wilson's helium speculation on “Stick” 21:28 Listener Q3: Is this Vanguard robo-portfolio too lazy? 22:47 Why it's impossible to rebalance between Roth and IRA accounts 23:58 Listener Q4: What's really inside DFAW? Core 1 vs. Core 2 27:26 Core 2 = more small/value tilt; DFAW ≈ AVGE 28:26 Expense ratio difference between DFAW and AVGE is negligible Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This episode brings the trio—Burso, Fitzy, and Joe—back together for a mix of trail-running prep, personal stories, and absolute chaos. With Joe signed up to run the first 19km leg of the Surf Coast Trail Marathon (while still recovering from Influenza A), and his mate Chris doing the second leg, the episode dives into the unfiltered realities of amateur endurance sports: the motivation, the gear, the setbacks, and the questionable preparation.There's no shortage of friendly roasting and classic Fitzy shade as the boys cover everything from text message ghosting, to accidental podium finishes, to toe trauma. Joe admits to doing “almost zero prep” for this race, aside from a solid pasta meal and packing some emergency Skittles. He reflects on the brutal Wilson's Prom Marathon, where dehydration and searing granite heat saw him sheltering under a tree for 15 minutes before walking the final 6K—only to discover he'd placed on the podium due to mass DNFs.Open-ended questions this episode answers:Can you run a trail marathon without training and still have fun—or even place?What's more important—running tech or snacks?Why do your toenails always betray you when the running gets tough?Can banter, resilience, and a bit of stubbornness carry you through a cold 19km?The episode also explores the infamous Surf Coast Century, the appeal of team-based endurance events, and the possibility of putting together veteran teams for bigger challenges. Fitzy, ever the pragmatist, gives gear tips while shaming everyone's Strava usage. Meanwhile, Joe's story about getting his best half-marathon time after stepping off a submarine becomes one of the many “how the hell did that happen?” moments.But it's not all running. From Burso being taunted by an 11-year-old parkrun assassin, to Fitzy's blackened toenails, and heated arm-wrestle rivalries with tattooed authors, there's no shortage of off-track stories that make this episode a rollercoaster of laughs and relatable chaos.
“The AI-powered enterprise is here—and it demands a network that can keep up.” — Aruna Ravichandran, SVP, Cisco In a conversation recorded live at Cisco Live 2025 in San Diego, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sat down with Aruna Ravichandran, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Cisco's Enterprise Connectivity and Collaboration division. The discussion centered on Cisco's major announcements aimed at future-proofing enterprise networks to meet the growing demands of AI, automation, and increasing security threats. Ravichandran explained that Cisco is preparing for a massive transformation in the global workforce—one where AI agents will soon outnumber human workers. With billions of devices and agents expected to be actively communicating, Cisco predicts massive increases in both east-west and north-south traffic, pushing legacy networks to their limits. To meet this challenge, Cisco launched a suite of new solutions including: AI Canvas: A collaborative dashboard powered by a Cisco-trained large language model (LLM), offering cross-domain data visibility, telemetry integration, and AI-driven diagnostics. Integrated with a conversational AI assistant, it enables NetOps teams to resolve complex network issues in seconds instead of days.

In this milestone episode, host Trace Blackmore welcomes John Caloritis of the Metro Group and current President of the Association of Water Technologies (AWT). Together, they explore the strategic evolution of AWT and announce an exciting new partnership that officially makes Scaling UP! H2O the association's podcast partner. This conversation is a rare behind-the-scenes look into how AWT operates, from board decisions to training initiatives, and what the future holds for water treatment professionals who want to lead, grow, and make an impact. Behind the Boardroom: How AWT Operates at the Top John Caloritis gives a full picture of how the AWT Board of Directors functions—including the nomination and election process, board roles, and the important presence of a supplier representative. He also unpacks the quarterly rhythm of board meetings and explains how day-to-day operations are managed by dedicated staff in Rockville, MD. This section highlights the association's emphasis on structured leadership and professional governance—insights crucial for members considering future leadership roles. Building Momentum: Strategic Planning, Committees, and New Metrics From selecting future convention cities to refining AWT's strategic plan, John walks us through the latest developments discussed in the May 2025 board meeting. A major shift includes revisiting governance documents, some untouched for 20 years, and implementing board performance metrics tied directly to AWT's goals. Additionally, John outlines the role of the new Committee Town Hall and how it strengthens the feedback loop between committees and the board—a must-know for engaged members. Training the Industry: What's New in AWT Technical Education AWT continues to invest in elevating its training programs. John details the launch of the new intermediate water treatment course, improvements in wastewater and sales training, and plans for more hands-on and flexible formats. Frisco, TX remains the training hub—with a refreshed schedule aimed at reaching more professionals year-round. This section underscores AWT's commitment to equipping water treaters with practical, career-advancing education. Advocacy, Certification, and Expanding Global Reach From ANSI accreditation for the Certified Water Technologist (CWT) designation to expanding relationships with global organizations like the UK Water Management Society, AWT is positioning itself as a global authority. John also shares how new tools like Quorum software are enhancing regulatory insight at the state and federal level, helping members stay ahead of legislation that affects their work. Charity and Collaboration: The Bigger Mission John shares how AWT's alignment with World Vision is driving charitable impact—most recently through service projects in Swannanoa, NC and participation in the global 6K for Water. He also introduces a promising new partnership with the American Boiler Manufacturers Association (ABMA), emphasizing the need for joint standards and shared technical knowledge Growing Together: Committees, Mentorship, and New Membership Models John and Trace emphasize the importance of committee participation and unveil initiatives like the mentor-mentee program (via the Women of Water Committee) and the onboarding support provided by Young Professionals. AWT's new Individual Membership model also opens doors for more professionals to join and engage with the association regardless of company affiliation. A Historic Partnership: Scaling UP! H2O Becomes the Official AWT Podcast In a powerful announcement, John and Trace reveal that the Scaling UP! H2O Podcast is now the official podcast of AWT. This partnership will allow both organizations to expand their reach, spotlight committee efforts, and communicate more effectively with the broader water treatment community.

Jason discusses real estate investing, highlighting current market conditions where a slight home sales increase is overshadowed by affordability issues due to higher mortgage rates. He argues that the "in irons" market, characterized by modest price appreciation, benefits rental property owners through steady cash flow and increasing rents due to limited buyer activity. He emphasizes real estate as a multidimensional asset and cautions against non-direct investing, citing risks of fraud, incompetence, and excessive management fees, using a Starbucks CEO's compensation as an example. He promotes direct investment for greater control and wealth building. For today's episode, Jason sits down for an interview with Vince Rodriguez of RE Social podcast. Jason discusses real estate investment strategies, cautioning against relying solely on appreciation in cyclical markets like California due to unpredictable downturns and low cash flow. He advocates for investing in linear markets offering sustainable, long-term growth and consistent cash flow. Jason's company, Empowered Investor, teaches conservative buy-and-hold strategies for turnkey rental properties in vetted markets, emphasizing remote self-management for increased profitability and control. He highlights the benefits of single-family homes as a proven and simple investment.

George Kirby has been shut down from throwing activities with shoulder inflammation; how much is it a concern at this point in the year? Brian Woo had 6K in 2.1 IP last night, Wyman and Bob talk about what makes him so great and why he’s poised for a big season. They talk about the big money being spent by the A’s and a busy 24 hours for the Commanders in Take 2. They talk about comments made by the Seahawks GM during yesterday's John Schneider show. And they talk about the Mariner that they think will have the biggest impact with an improved season this year.
When a single corporate client paid me over $10K for one project — and $6K of that was digital calligraphy — I knew I had to pull back the curtain on this game-changing skill!While I would describe myself as a pen-and-paper calligrapher, digitized calligraphy has become a necessary add-on to most of my commissions. Of course, most of my clients initially contact me seeking handmade original pieces – but whether they want to duplicate my work numerous times, use it on their website for branding, or frankly I myself don't want to write the SAME PHRASE thousands of times, I need to be able to generate a digitized version of my work (and save SO MUCH TIME in the process!).So how do I go about doing that? Good question! In this episode of The Shinah Show, I'm breaking down:The “tech side” of calligraphy, how to digitize your work, and what tools you need to do itThe vast number of projects you can create with digital calligraphy (and how it can open up soooo many more revenue streams for you)How I've priced my digital work over the years, and what key factors should dictate what you charge for your workIf you have ever wondered if learning how to digitize your calligraphy is worth adding to your skillset, I hope this episode will show you how many doors this talent will open for you!Interested in learning how to add style to your calligraphy and capture corporate clients?
