Ever wondered why some teaching strategies just seem to click… while others fall flat?In this episode, we're joined by Lisa Riegel, who brings a fresh and fascinating perspective on how the brain really learns, and how we can use that knowledge to become more intentional, effective, and empowered educators.This conversation is packed with those “aha” moments that help you connect what you're already doing in the classroom with the science behind it. From understanding how repetition, emotion, and experience shape learning, to exploring what truly drives student engagement, Lisa helps us see teaching through a whole new lens.We also dive into the importance of creating safe, connected classroom environments where students are ready to learn, and why a stressed brain simply can't engage. Lisa shares practical, easy-to-implement strategies that support both student learning and teacher wellbeing, helping you work smarter, not harder.This is one of those episodes that will deepen your understanding, spark your curiosity, and leave you feeling inspired to reflect on your own practice.Key TakeawaysThe brain learns best through repetition, emotion, and meaningful experiencesEngagement goes beyond being “on-task” it's about connection, purpose, and understandingIntrinsic motivation is key to long-term learning and student ownershipCreating a sense of safety and belonging is essential for effective learningPractical, brain-aligned strategies can support focus, regulation, and productivity in the classroomLisa's 8C framework offers a powerful approach to building thriving, human-centred learning environmentsWhen we understand how the brain works, we can make small, intentional changes that have a big impactIf this episode sparked your curiosity, we'd love to hear from you!

Overpriced shop-bought sandwiches, underwhelming food from your work canteen or pricey local restaurants. If those are the alternatives, then it's unsurprising that many of us think leftovers make the perfect lunch. Leftovers are a good way to cut down on food waste. If you've cooked them yourself, then you can be sure what all the ingredients are and where they've come from. But how safe are leftovers? Could there be a danger lurking in your lunchbox?商店购买的三明治价格过高,工作食堂或当地昂贵餐馆的食物平淡无奇。 如果这些都是替代方案,那么我们中的许多人认为剩菜是完美的午餐就不足为奇了。 剩菜剩饭是减少食物浪费的好方法。 如果您自己煮过它们,那么您可以确定所有成分是什么以及它们来自哪里。 但剩菜有多安全呢? 你的午餐盒里是否潜藏着危险?It's not just you that loves your leftovers. The BBC's Trust Me, I'm a Doctor programme tells us that they are also great for bacteria like listeria, salmonella and campylobacter. They can nourish themselves on the food we love and multiply incredibly quickly. One campylobacter bacterium can multiply to 70,000 million bacteria in just 12 hours. Food poisoning caused by these bacteria usually makes people mildly unwell but can also cause more serious life-threatening illnesses. What do we need to think about to keep our leftovers safe?不只是你喜欢吃剩菜。 BBC 的“相信我,我是医生”节目告诉我们,它们对于李斯特菌、沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌等细菌也很有用。 它们可以靠我们喜爱的食物来滋养自己,并以惊人的速度繁殖。 一个弯曲杆菌可以在短短 12 小时内繁殖到 700 亿个细菌。 这些细菌引起的食物中毒通常会使人出现轻微不适,但也可能导致更严重的危及生命的疾病。 为了保证剩菜的安全,我们需要考虑什么?Temperature control is important to stop bacteria growing on your food. Food safety experts warn of a danger zone between 8C and 63C. At these temperatures bacteria can grow easily on your leftover food. Refrigerating your leftovers slows bacteria growth, and this is why experts recommend putting your leftover food in the fridge within two hours. You should also cover any food in the refrigerator because air can contain contaminants, and also, many pathogens need oxygen to grow. However, do remember that fridges only slow bacteria growth, not stop it, so most leftovers should only be left in the fridge for two days.温度控制对于阻止细菌在食物上生长非常重要。 食品安全专家警告说,8 摄氏度至 63 摄氏度之间存在危险区域。 在这样的温度下,细菌很容易在剩下的食物上生长。 冷藏剩菜可以减缓细菌的生长,这就是为什么专家建议在两小时内将剩菜放入冰箱的原因。 您还应该盖住冰箱中的所有食物,因为空气中可能含有污染物,而且许多病原体需要氧气才能生长。 但是,请记住,冰箱只能减缓细菌的生长,而不能阻止细菌的生长,因此大多数剩菜只能在冰箱中保存两天。Temperature is also important if you are reheating leftovers. Instructions often recommend heating food until it's piping hot or steaming hot throughout. Clinical microbiology lecturer Primrose Freestone recommends that ovens are set to at least 163C and that food's internal temperature should reach at least 74C. Other experts tell us that food heated in the microwave should be stirred halfway through the process so that it's cooked all the way through.如果您要重新加热剩菜,温度也很重要。 说明书通常建议加热食物,直到整个食物变得滚烫或热气腾腾。 临床微生物学讲师Primrose Freestone建议烤箱温度至少设置为163摄氏度,食物内部温度至少应达到74摄氏度。 其他专家告诉我们,用微波炉加热的食物应该在过程中途搅拌,以便完全煮熟。Leftovers can be an economical way to cut down on food waste. However, it's important that we store and reheat food carefully to make sure that it stays safe to eat.剩菜是减少食物浪费的一种经济方法。 然而,重要的是我们要小心储存和重新加热食物,以确保其食用安全。
Jana Švecová joins us this week! We've been trying to get this sorted for a while so glad it finally came together. Jana is a super impressive climber, and has climbed multiple 8C boulders (she climbed another one since we recorded this episode). We chat to her about those projects, coming back from injuries, her long term battle with Terranova, Czech climbing and we also run through some desert island boulders.

This week we had a great time chatting to Bruce Zou. Bruce is a very charismatic chap who is incredibly passionate about his climbing. He has climbed up to 8C and has also developed an affinity for climbing barefoot. His opinions about what climbing means to him and how they have changed were really interesting and we also talked about the pros and cons of grade chasing. Really enjoyable chat, some of the best bits are towards the end so I would encourage a full listen... To be honest I always encourage a full listen, unless it's just me and Aidan... Then just listen for as long as you can bear it I guess. If you're enjoying the podcast and would like to support us: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=70353823Support the show

A. Where does oneness BEGIN?▪ Key Word(s): they shall become one flesh: to come about, come to pass or to come into being as one flesh; to be established; to exist, remain, or continue; to stand, to be finished as one flesh.▪ Key Verse(s): Psalm 33:6-9B. How does oneness END? ▪ Key Word(s): Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted: because of your stubbornness, obstinacy and perversenessof heart; It indicates man's attitude toward God and His grace when he ought to have a willing and receptive heart; heart: mindset, the will, affections and conscience; Moses permitted: allowed, give leave.▪ Matthew 19:3-8C. How is oneness ACHIEVED?1. Pursue, develop, and maintain the ATTITUDE (mind|heart) of Christ.▪ Key Word(s): attitude: to feel, to think; to have an opinion of one's self; to be modest, not let one's opinion (though just) of himself exceed the bounds of modesty; to be of the same mind; agreed together, cherish the same views, or be harmonious.▪ Key Verse(s): Philippians 2:1-5.2. Do your best to AVOID a hard heart.▪ Key Word(s): store up: to gather; to accumulate riches; metaph. so to live from day to day as to increase either the bitterness or the happiness of one's consequent lot.▪ Key Verse(s): Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3:10-12; Matthew 7:3-5; Matthew 6:19-21; Proverbs 4:23 (NIV); Psalm 119:11

The dizzying variety of options, the amazing range of flavours, and for some of us, the sheer quantity that you can eat. It's easy to see the appeal of a buffet. It takes the stress out of choosing what to eat - just have it all! But are there risks that we need to think about? Food hygiene specialists suggest there might be.各种各样的选择,令人惊叹的风味范围,对于我们中的某些人来说,您可以吃的大量数量。 很容易看到自助餐的吸引力。 选择吃什么 - 只要全部吃东西! 但是,我们需要考虑的风险吗? 食品卫生专家建议可能会有。Restaurant and hotel buffets can be a food poisoning risk. The large number of different dishes and people serving themselves creates opportunities for cross-contamination. Microbes can be transferred from people to dishes, from dishes to people and from one dish to another. Even the air can transfer microbes to your food. It's easy to see how an entire buffet could end up contaminated. Food temperature creates another risk factor. It's easy for food to be kept lukewarm and in the danger zone between 8C and 63C where bacteria and other microbes grow and multiply easily.餐厅和酒店自助餐可能是食物中毒的风险。 大量不同的菜肴和为自己服务的人们创造了交叉污染的机会。 微生物可以从人转移到菜肴,从菜肴到人,从一道菜到另一种菜肴。 甚至空气也可以将微生物转移到您的食物中。 很容易看到整个自助餐最终如何污染。 食物温度会产生另一个危险因素。 食物很容易保持不冷热,并在8c至63c之间的危险区域,在那里细菌和其他微生物易于生长和繁殖。Restaurants that manage buffets well can reduce the risks. Hot food should be replaced after two hours and cold food after four. It's important that the old food is disposed of and that containers are not just topped up, allowing the older food to contaminate fresh items. Hot food should be kept above 63C, and cold food should be refrigerated.家管理自助餐的餐厅可以降低风险。 两个小时后,应在四个小时后更换热食品。 旧食物要处置,并且容器不仅要装满,而且允许较旧的食物污染新鲜物品,这一点很重要。 热食应保持在63℃以上,并应冷藏冷食。However, any attempts by hospitality businesses to reduce risks can easily be undone by careless clients. There are many ways that diners can unwittingly or thoughtlessly increase the risks. Tongs and ladles can be contaminated by those who do not wash their hands, or who reuse their plates when getting a second helping. Food on display can be contaminated by people using the wrong utensil or who accidentally drop the handles into bowls of food. That's before even mentioning those who cough or sneeze near the buffet.但是,款待业务降低风险的任何尝试都可以被粗心的客户轻松撤销。 食客可以通过多种方式不知不觉地增加风险。 那些不洗手,或者在获得第二次帮助时重复使用盘子的人可能会污染钳子和梯子。 使用错误的餐具或意外将手柄放入食物碗的人可能会污染展出的食物。 那是在提到那些在自助餐附近咳嗽或打喷嚏的人。So, to enjoy a buffet, while keeping the risks as low as possible, you should check to see that it is well-managed by the restaurant or hotel, that others are following good hygiene rules and that you do the same. Even so, a buffet is likely to be more risky than other types of restaurants.因此,要享受自助餐,同时保持风险尽可能低,您应该检查一下餐厅或酒店的管理良好,其他人正在遵守良好的卫生规则,并且您也这样做。 即便如此,自助餐可能比其他类型的餐馆更具风险。

Trevor Lister considers the short competition life of two cars intended to run at Indianapolis in 1950 that ended up in New Zealand six years later. In 1956 two brothers travelled to Italy intending to purchase a car to race back home. They returned with three: two Indy cars and a 1930s 6CM. The first part of this paper covers the modest race history of these cars in New Zealand. The second explores an identity policy that popped up while exploring the role of the engines in setting the Tipos and the individual identities of these cars. The policy did not set chassis numbers, nor even engine numbers. Rather it set out to describe the features of the engine as used on a particular car, for instance as applied to the 1938 8CTFs. The 8C part of the description tells us that these are 8 cylinder engines and the TF bit that these particular engines had fixed Cylinder Heads (Testa Fissa). Taken together we get an 8CTF car. But 8CTF is an engine description, not a car one, a conundrum to be explored in this presentation.

Joan Robinson Hill and her husband, Dr. John Hill, were the darlings of Houston's high society in the 1960s. Joan was a champion equestrian from one of Houston's wealthiest families, and John was a successful plastic surgeon with a love for classical music. They were young, attractive, and seemed to have it all—a picture-perfect couple moving through a world of horse shows, charity events, and fancy parties. But behind the scenes, things weren't as perfect as they seemed. Joan and John were opposites in many ways, and their differences caused tension from the start. To make matters worse, Joan's father, Ash Robinson, was a major presence in their lives. He was fiercely protective of Joan and had no problem getting involved in her marriage, which only added more strain. By 1969, the cracks in their relationship couldn't be ignored any longer.

The legendary, 500-hp Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black Series was never produced with a manual transmission. So, Derek had one built. === The Carmudgeon Show Sponsor, Vredestein Tires: https://www.vredestein.com/ Click here to join the Hagerty Driver's Club: https://bit.ly/Join-HDC-Cammisa-Rev === Derek Tam-Scott's company, OTS & Co., purchased a C209-chassis 2008 Mercedes CLK63 AMG Black Series for science/tax reasons and immediately sent it to Matt Kwiek of @kwiekclassics for a new Mercedes-sourced manual transmission swap. How does the legendary AMG M156 6.3-liter V-8 (which is actually 6.2 liters) work with a 6-speed manual? For science, Derek hired SCCA Hall of Fame race car driver Randy Pobst to set a lap time in both a stock, automatic CLK63 BS and a 6-speed swapped one. The Black Series is one of Jason Cammisa's favorite cars of all time. He attended its launch at Willow Springs raceway, where he struggled to keep up with an 80-year-old Denise McLuggage as she executed flawless and effortless laps in the exact same car. It's a fun story. The ‘mudgeons then briefly cover all the Black Series models: the R171 SLK55, C209 CLK63, R230 SL65, W204 C63, and SLS AMG. Is the CLK Black Series peak AMG? Derek compares the 6-speed swapped CLK to the fifth-gen Pontiac GTO and E39 BMW M5 Dinan S2. And the Carmudgeons discuss whether other collectible cars should also be manual-swapped, including the Lexus LFA, Alfa Romeo 4C and 8C, and the E60 M5. The boys also ponder if tearing out the OE tranny on the Black Series is a crime akin to that of the Sacrilege Motors 964 911 EV conversion. Which wasn't, actually, a crime. We end with a brief discussion of twin-engine cars: a half-Leaf half-motorcycle, a Twini (dual-engine Mini Cooper), DuRocco (twin-engine Scirocco), a pre-war Alfa, and a Citroen 2CV Safari. Plus, the van, Jynah, prepares for potentially slippery, wet and white conditions with a brand new set of Vredestein Wintrac Pros! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Whenever you're celebrating, a nice bottle of champagne feels like the best way to treat yourself and enjoy the moment. That's why so many people look for Champagne during the holiday season as they are celebrating with family and loved ones! In today's episode, I'm coving some of my top tips when shopping for champagne, serving champagne, and more! Grab your favorite glass of bubbly and hit play now! Today's episode is best enjoyed on my youtube channel: https://youtu.be/NG5rEz2kX1s ------ Sign up for The Wine CEO newsletter and get a free guide to Food & Wine Pairing: thewineceo.com Email: Sarah@thewineceo.com Instagram: @thewineceo ----- Top Tips: Temperature is key! Store your champagne around 42-45F so that you can serve it between 45-50F (6-8C). Glassware is important! If you don't have a tulip glass, use a white wine glass. Coupes and Flutes are not the best glass when enjoying Champagne. Champagne pairs well with almost any food! Don't age your wine - it's already at the perfect age. Be careful when opening your wine that the cork doesn't explode and hurt you or someone else. When shopping, plan to spend at least $60-$70+ and decide what sweetness level you want and if you are looking to try a larger house or a small grower/ producer. For info on these tips and more, watch the entire episode now!

He's climbed up to 8C on the boulders and he's competed for Great Britain at world cups so he's had a great deal of success in the sport. That said he's been really open and honest with this struggles when things aren't all going his way. He has the ability to really confront his flaws and talk openly about them, which I think is very rare and I hope what he says resonates with some of you.

What is our inner knowing? This week, Therapist Samantha Hardy describes why developing our inner knowing will not only build our outer confidence but lead to building trust within ourselves and nudge us toward new challenges. Inner knowing is more than just a "gut feeling," it feels right, true, steady, certain and stands in opposition to outer approval. Samantha dives into the difference between inner knowing and anxiety and how to delineate between the two, as well as how to tap into those feelings to identify both triggers and ways to propel ourselves. how family dynamics take you out of contact with your inner voice the 8C's: compassion, curiosity, clarity, creativity, calm, confidence, courage, and connectedness. What are you doing when you feel most confident, creative, and connected? What is that experience like? Where does it sit in your body? When we can more clearly hear our gut and trust in its voice, we can create lives more deeply in alignment with our bodies and hearts! Tune in to hear how you can develop a more confident, clear-minded, vulnerable you and build a more confident life. Sam Hardy is an Associate Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with the Chicago Center for Relationship Counseling. Originally born and raised in sunny Los Angeles, she graduated from the University of Southern California in 2020 with a major in Psychology and a double minor in Forensics and Criminality & Individuals, Societies, and Aging. While studying as a graduate student in Northwestern's Marriage and Family Therapy program, she loved working as a Graduate Assistant to her professional role model, Dr. Alexandra Solomon. After her June 2022 graduation, she has so enjoyed being in the therapeutic space with individuals, couples, and adult families facing a variety of challenges including anxiety, life transitions, difficult family relationships, communication concerns, aging difficulties, and trauma. When she isn't meeting with her therapy clients, she has also worked for the past six years as a portrait photographer.

Jonny Kydd has recently climbed an 8C called The World is Yours at Biblins cave. It took him multiple seasons and over 110 sessions. Not the sort of siege many of us would be willing to take on but Jonny has demonstrated incredible mental resilience and tenacity and when listening to him speak it's infectious. He's also a Lattice coach with a sports science background so is able to provide some great takeaways for all listeners. I really hope you enjoy!If you are enjoying the podcast and would like to help us to keep it going, please consider joining our Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/user?u=70353823Also, a massive thank-you to our Patroons and everybody who has been kind enough to leave us a review!
