https://jo.my/jld2xuExit Routes, Drills, and Emergency LightingEmergencies don't send calendar invites.A fire won't wait until everyone remembers the exit route. A severe storm won't pause while someone checks the location of the assembly point. Power can drop. Alarms can sound. People can panic. Fast. Dangerous. Preventable.That's why emergency preparedness matters during National Safety Month. It's not about checking a box. It's about making sure every person in the facility knows where to go, what to do, and how to help others move safely when seconds matter.A strong Safety Culture doesn't wait for an emergency to expose weak spots. It finds them early. It trains them. It fixes them before they cause someone to get hurt.Here are a few tips to assist you with National Safety Month, Week 1, Emergency Preparedness: Review exit routes before they're needed. Walk the facility and confirm that exit paths are clear, marked, and easy to follow. Don't assume everyone knows the way out. New employees, visitors, contractors, and temporary workers may need extra direction. Confirm assembly point locations. Make sure each crew member knows where to report after leaving the facility. The assembly point should be far enough from danger, easy to find, and clear of traffic or emergency response areas. Run “No-Notice” fire and weather drills. Planned drills help, but surprise drills show what people really know. Watch how the crew responds. Look for confusion, blocked paths, missed headcounts, and slow reactions. Check emergency lighting. If the power goes out, emergency lights become the guide rope. Test them on a regular schedule. Replace weak batteries, damaged units, and lights that don't cover key walkways, stairs, exits, or work areas. Use every drill as a teaching moment. Don't shame people for mistakes. Fix the gaps. Talk through what happened. Update procedures when needed. A drill that reveals a problem is doing its job. As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.Emergency preparedness works best before the smoke, sirens, wind, or darkness shows up. That's the whole point. You train on a normal day, so people can react on the worst day.This week, look at your facility with fresh eyes. Find the blocked exit. Check the weak light. Ask the employee who looks unsure. Then fix what needs fixing. Safety isn't paperwork. It's people going home because someone cared enough to prepare.Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time - have a great week, and STAY SAFE!

The hospital can be a harsh backdrop to many of life's most pivotal events. Alarms blare at inopportune times, rounding doctors intrude on delicate conversations, and vigilant nurses disrupt rare periods of rest. All the chaos can add to the stress of a patient's hospital stay and create an emotionally discordant experience — seemingly out of step with the profound grief, joy, or intimacy one might expect to accompany the weighty moments that happen in the hospital. In the face of this challenging environment, what can be done to connect patients to the emotional threads of their lives — to invite meaning during these critical times? The answer, at least in part, may lie in music. Our guest on this episode is Melanie Ambler, fourth-year medical student at Stanford and professional cellist. As an undergraduate at Brown, Melanie began researching the intersection of music and medicine. She then completed a Fulbright fellowship in France where her master's work centered on the effect of music on patients with dementia. Once she got to Stanford, Melanie and her cello Shelby got to work bringing music to hospitalized patients. In 2024, she founded Musical Rounds – a music and storytelling project for patients in palliative care. Over the course of our conversation, Melanie shares how her musical and medical journeys melded into one. We discuss the power of music to prompt reflection, draw out stories, and even transform the ugliness of the hospital into beauty. Best of all, Melanie plays for us live while sharing her early patient experiences that motivate her work at Musical Rounds — including the launch of her new Musical Rounds podcast.In this episode, you'll hear: 3:00 - How playing the cello became a central part of Melanie's life 13:45 - Melanie play a piece that showcases the beauty of the cello18:10 - How Melanie became interested in medicine27:10 - How Melanie merged music and medicine in her research and in the hospital 46:00 - Reflections on the power of music in the lives of physicians52:00 - How Melanie's non-profit organization Musical Rounds is working to provide patients moments of reflection through music and storytelling55:22 - A patient story that exemplifies the power of music at a patient's bedside If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

TekLab TK4 Compressor Oil Level Control, Kevin's in Georgia??--- Episode 521TechLab TK4 Oil Level Controls: Dongles, Alarms, and Why “Limit Injections” Can Kill a RackBrett and Kevin swap war stories from a sweltering Georgia service call where Kevin quickly solves a persistent comm issue caused by a fallen rod rubbing through and shorting a comm wire, while also noticing a dangerously supported main water line. Back home, they dig into TechLab oil level controls (TK4/TK1), rant about hard-to-find manufacturer documentation, and walk through setting up the Bluetooth dongle/software to communicate, view status, and manually cycle the solenoid to watch oil-fill timing. They highlight how the “limit injections” setting can stop refilling during an alarm and shut down a rack, discuss injection/monitoring timing tradeoffs for low vs. medium temp systems, and note the pressure differential setting doesn't appear to change timing automatically. They compare TechLab favorably to Kriwan, show teardown observations, and joke about laptops, metric screws, and oil-shower failures.

A new $1.776 billion Justice Department fund is raising big questions — about who could qualify and how the money might be used. The “anti-weaponization fund” stems from a settlement tied to a $10B lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump against the IRS. The DOJ says it's meant to compensate people who were unjustly targeted by Justice. But the details leave key questions unresolved. Could some January 6 defendants be eligible? What role will a commission play in deciding payouts? And what does this mean for the Justice Department's independence? USA TODAY Justice Correspondent Aysha Bagchi breaks down what we know — and what remains unclear.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

Here’s the truth:Your brain isn’t broken… it’s just overwhelmed. Whether you have ADHD or not, we’re all living in a world that’s busy, noisy, overstimulating—and expecting us to remember everything.

Donald Trump's war on Pope Leo is worsening. JD Vance warned that the Pope, who condemned Trump's war on religious grounds, should “be careful” in his theology. Mike Johnson dismissed the Pope's criticisms by bizarrely invoking Just War Doctrine, which Trump and Pete Hegseth are serially violating. All this reveals Trump to be demanding that his leading sycophants (even devoutly religious ones) place him above the Pope—and indeed that they recognize no higher allegiance than to the president. Meanwhile, The New York Times has an epic piece on his mental decline, which reports that many ex-allies are sounding the alarm, from Marjorie Taylor Greene to numerous top first-term advisers. We talked to former national security official Olivia Troye, who just announced a run for Congress. She recounts what she witnessed first-hand about Trump's unfitness, why his enablers are much worse this time around, and how his madness is now impacting Americans' everyday lives.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

A federal union is raising alarms about the Trump administration's planned reorganization of the Forest Service. The National Federation of Federal Employees warns that the agency's plan to move its headquarters to Utah and eliminate regional offices, will hurt the ability to effectively combat wildfires. The Forest Service reorganization will impact about 6,500 federal employees. Union officials say the relocations will almost certainly lead some of those employees to quit their jobs.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Middle East conflict raged on during our Easter break and George Osborne comes back to us with news from Washington and word from friends in high places, like incoming Fed Chair Kevin Warsh. He and Ed Balls discuss the failed peace talks from George's other mate, JD Vance, and where things go from here. They then weigh in on the UK's shifting tone towards the Trump administration, and why they're becoming more critical. It's aiding them for now, but will it come back to bite them? The ongoing defence spending dilemma also rears its head with Labour peer George Robertson openly critcising the Government. The pair predict this will come to be the biggest challenge for Rachel Reeves and the Treasury in this year's budget.Earlier this week the International Monetary Fund forecast that Britain would be one of the countries worst hit by the Iran war. Ed explains why he disagrees with this assessment, and how the Bank of England can avoid debilitating inflation. George cautions that Reeves is in a tough spot, and faces some unpopular choices should the IMF's forecast come to fruition. Finally, George sheds some light on emerging cybersecurity threats particularly Anthropic's Mythos model. Alarms are ringing in Washington over this model, with the new threats of AI on defence and security becoming clear. George highlights the risk and opportunity inherent in these technological innovations, and they call for regulation as these models become more and more advanced.We love hearing from you, so please don't forget to send all your EMQs to questions@politicalcurrency and make sure to include a voice note of your question.Thanks for listening.

On April 7, the AI firm Anthropic, which makes the popular Claude product, said that a new model it's been working on, Mythos, is so powerful at finding cybersecurity vulnerabilities that it would not release it publicly. Instead, the company said, it would share the model with tech firms that make the foundational critical software that are widely used across the economy. The initiative, known as Project Glasswing, has led to cybersecurity concerns at most firms, who must now contend with AI-enabled attackers using so-called “zero-day” exploits which are unknown even to a given piece of software's developers, and therefore are not patched through software updates. Mythos, Anthropic says, has already found — and enabled patches for — bugs over a decade old in software that has been intensely audited by humans and automated systems millions of times. The Hindu reported last week that the Union government and the Indian IT sector's main cybersecurity body are both studying the implications of Mythos.

299 - The Short-Term Rental Safety Mistakes That Could Destroy Your Business Your short-term rental could be one overlooked hazard away from a lawsuit, a tragedy, or the end of your investing career — and you probably don't even know it. In this eye-opening episode of REIGN, the Real Estate Investor Growth Network, host Jen Josey sits down with Justin Ford, Director of Safety and Certification Programs at Breezeway, to expose the hidden dangers that most STR hosts completely ignore. With nearly 30 years in the short-term rental industry, Justin reveals why over 80% of incidents have nothing to do with fire — and everything to do with what happens in the first hour your guest arrives. Justin shares the real story behind how a rusty hammock and a near-fatal injury launched the short-term rental industry's first-ever safety checklist, now used in 72 languages worldwide. From grill fires and appliance maintenance to pool drownings and fire pit hazards, this conversation is packed with practical, no-fluff guidance that every STR host and property manager needs. You'll learn why childproofing your rental could actually increase your liability, how documentation in platforms like Breezeway can protect you in court, and why safety is quickly becoming the most powerful marketing tool in the short-term rental space. Whether you own one cabin in the woods or manage hundreds of vacation rentals, this episode is your wake-up call. Regulations are tightening in markets like the Smoky Mountains, Palm Springs, and Maui — and the investors who get ahead of safety standards now will be worth significantly more when those rules hit their market. If you want to protect your guests, protect your assets, and build a rental business that actually lasts, this conversation is non-negotiable. 5 Powerful Takeaways Slips, trips, and falls cause over 80% of STR incidents — most happen within the first hour of arrival, meaning your walkway, lighting, and entry approach could be your biggest liability right now Fire extinguishers under the sink are a code-compliant mistake — Justin explains exactly where extinguishers should be mounted and why the placement most hosts use could cost them everything in an emergency Childproofing your rental actually increases your legal exposure — discover the counterintuitive reason why Justin warns hosts to never install outlet covers or attempt to make their property childproof Safety is your most underutilized marketing advantage — a survey found that 62% of people who have never stayed in an Airbnb cite safety as the reason, meaning hosts who lead with safety standards can convert a brand-new audience of guests Regulatory changes are coming to your market — STR safety codes already hitting Gatlinburg, Palm Springs, and New Orleans will eventually reach every market, and the investors who upgrade now will have properties worth tens of thousands more when compliance becomes mandatory About the Guest Justin Ford is the Director of Safety and Certification Programs at Breezeway and one of the most recognized voices in short-term rental safety globally. With nearly 30 years of experience in the vacation rental industry, Justin developed the STR industry's first safety checklist in 2014 — a resource now available in 72 languages and used by hosts and property managers around the world. A former U.S. Coast Guard serviceman and 15-year volunteer firefighter, Justin brings real-world emergency experience to an industry that desperately needs it. He has trained thousands of professionals across the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, and beyond, and currently serves on committees for the International Residential Code and the NFPA to help write safety standards specifically for short-term rentals. Justin's approach is practical, direct, and deeply human — because for him, safety is personal.

WORT 89.9FM Madison · “Slow Looking” Brings New Perspective to Art Elise Daugherty(Photo courtesy Elise Daugherty) We live in a world that values speed and efficiency above all.  The internet serves us thousands of bite-sized memes, which we quickly devour while doom-scrolling between Zoom meetings.  Alarms and calendar reminders rule our daily lives, with our phones constantly buzzing and chirping in our pockets to keep us on schedule.  AI-generated images pass by our eyes so quickly, that we fail to notice that people have too many fingers, or that famous buildings are duplicated in the skyline.  Elise Daugherty, Learning and Community Engagement Coordinator for the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art wants to give you a break from all that.  She's offering a series of events designed to encourage “slow looking,” or deliberate, meditative contemplation of works of art.  Elise joined the Monday Buzz on April 13, 2026.

In “Kim on a Whim,” Kim St. Onge spotlights a lawsuit against Yale New Haven Bridgeport Hospital after patient Connor Hilton died while being monitored by a telehealth ICU doctor instead of an on-site physician. The discussion examines the growing use of remote ICU models due to staffing shortages, rising costs, and hospital efficiency goals, while questioning whether virtual care can safely replace in-person medical judgment during critical emergencies. Marc Cox and Kim debate the risks, including delayed responses, increased burden on nurses, and hospitals prioritizing cost savings, ultimately warning that tele-ICU systems could expand nationwide despite serious concerns about patient safety and accountability.

https://jo.my/wdfmdhAvoiding Floor Blindness and Equipment AccidentsRoutine is a silent killer in any industrial facility. You walk the same paths every single day. You see the same racks and the same equipment. Eventually, your brain starts to tune out the small details. You stop seeing the forklift at the end of the aisle. You ignore the backup alarm. This is floor blindness. It's a trick your mind plays on you. One of the top priorities of a solid Safety Culture is breaking that cycle to keep everyone whole.Staying alert isn't just about following a handbook. It's about looking out for your friends and making sure you get home for dinner. When we get too comfortable, we get distracted. We stop paying attention to the space around us. High-volume zones change fast. A pallet might be in a new spot. A driver might be new on the job. You have to stay sharp to stay alive.Here are a few tips to assist you with Distraction Management & Pedestrian Safety (Identifying "Floor Blindness"): Break the Routine. Look at your work area with fresh eyes every hour. Look for new hazards or changes in the workflow. Don't let the scenery disappear. Use the 3-Foot Rule. Always keep at least three feet of clearance between you and any moving forklift. This gives the operator room to correct a mistake. It gives you a buffer. Space equals safety. Ditch the Distractions. Keep your phone in your locker or your pocket. Never look at a screen while walking through the facility. One second of looking down can lead to a lifetime of regret. Make Eye Contact. Never assume a driver sees you. Wait until you make eye contact with the operator before moving near their path. Give a wave. Wait for a nod. Listen for Alarms. Keep your ears open. Do not wear earbuds or headphones on the floor. You need to hear the horns and the sirens to know what is coming around the corner. As always, these are potential tips. Please be sure to follow the rules and regulations of your specific facility.Safety is a mindset that you carry every minute of the shift. It doesn't matter how many years you have on the clock. The floor doesn't care about your experience if you aren't paying attention. We want a culture where everyone watches each other's backs. If you see someone drifting into a danger zone, speak up. A quick shout can save a life.Think about why you work hard. It's for your family and your future. Don't let a moment of "floor blindness" take that away. Stay present. Stay focused. Treat every walk across the floor like it's your first time in the facility. That level of awareness is what separates a pro from a statistic.Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time - have a great week, and STAY SAFE!#Safety #SafetyCulture #StaySafe #SafetyFirst #SafetyTips #StayAlert #SafetyAwareness #WarehouseSafety #PedestrianSafety #FloorBlindness

In this episode, I sit down with Matthew McConaughey — Oscar-winning actor, author of the bestselling memoir Greenlights, and a man who thinks about fatherhood, legacy, and what it means to truly live with the same intensity he brings to everything else. This is not a conversation about Hollywood. It's about what it means to be a man and a father who doesn't half-ass the most important things in his life. Matthew opens up about his own father — a larger-than-life man who taught him three rules that shaped everything: don't say can't, don't hate, and don't lie. We get into the stories behind each of those lessons, the "don't half-ass it" moment when Matthew told his dad he wanted film school instead of law school, and what it takes for a father to recognize that his son has made up his mind — not asking permission, but declaring a direction. We also talk about Camilla, taking his kids everywhere he goes on set, and why three older actors all told him the same thing: they chose work over family time and would do it differently if they could. Then there's the passage from Greenlights that stopped Larry mid-workout — about living your legacy now, and the idea that most of us don't fly too close to the sun. We don't fly nearly high enough. Our alarms go off too early. This one is timeless.   Timeline Summary [0:00] Introduction to the Dad Edge mission and the movement to raise leaders of families and communities [1:02] Why this replay is one of the top ten episodes in Dad Edge history [2:18] What Matthew hoped would come from this conversation: waking men up to what being a dad really means [4:29] What brings Matthew joy: bringing people together and watching them build their own independent friendships [6:31] The role most relative to who he is as a husband and father — and why his family has always come with him on every job [8:52] Camilla's one condition before they started a family: "You go, we go" [11:02] Three older actors all said the same thing: they chose work over family, and they regret it [12:39] The 80% statistic: most of your one-on-one time with your kids is gone by the time they're 12 [14:00] Fatherhood is a verb — on screen time, saying no with love, and why the easy answer is almost always the wrong one [18:33] The birds and bees talk from his father: a lesson about respect for women that stuck word for word [20:34] Don't say can't — the lawnmower story and the lesson that there's always another way [21:57] Don't hate — saying "I hate you" at his own birthday party, and what happened next [22:28] Don't lie — the stolen pizza, four chances to tell the truth, and what Matthew actually remembers [24:10] "Don't half-ass it" — the film school conversation and what it means when a father hears conviction in his son's voice [28:04] His dad was alive for just five days into Matthew's first acting job — the first thing he committed to that wasn't a fad [30:55] How Matthew pursues Camilla in the middle of kids, career, and constant demands on his time [35:26] Why Matthew and Camilla go on dates every week — and what they tell the kids about why mom and dad go alone [35:43] The passage from Greenlights that stopped Larry in the gym: "Live my legacy now" [38:33] The inverted Icarus problem: most of us don't fly too close to the sun — our alarms go off way too early [41:59] The science in the rearview mirror — how everything connects, even the things that looked like mistakes [42:36] Ten years from now: what Matthew hopes to be celebrating with his family   Five Key Takeaways Fatherhood is a verb, not a label. It's not about helping make the baby — the work starts after. Teaching, shepherding, saying no, explaining why — that is the job. The three rules Matthew's father gave him — don't say can't, don't hate, don't lie — are not just household rules. They are the weapons a man needs to negotiate the world. When your child comes to you convicted — not asking permission, but declaring a direction — your job as a father is to recognize that and say "don't half-ass it." Most of us don't fly too close to the sun. Our alarms go off too early. We put a ceiling on our own potential before we've even started to soar. Your marriage needs intentional pursuit — even in the busiest seasons of parenting. It doesn't just hold itself.   Links & Resources Roommates to Soulmates Cohort & Preview Call: https://thedadedge.com/soulmates The Men's Forge: https://themensforge.com Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey: https://a.co/d/017KxpPw Episode Link & Resources (Episode 1458): https://thedadedge.com/1458   Closing If there's one message from this episode that stands out, it's this: stop waiting for the right moment to live your legacy — it's already happening right now. Matthew McConaughey's father gave him three rules, one five-second pause, and a standard he's been carrying ever since. Don't say can't. Don't hate. Don't lie. Don't half-ass it. The men whose kids will remember them the way Matthew remembers his dad are the ones who show up every day knowing that fatherhood is not a label you earn once. It's a verb you live out in a thousand small moments that add up to everything. If this episode hit you where it needed to, share it with a father who needs the reminder. Go out and live legendary.

Iran wants to talk now, but then again they claim that they don't want to talk.Let's wait to see what our media says about it.Think about it. Trump let's Iran know that he's been treating them with kid's gloves which is why he hasn't taken out their power grid, etc. I said this early on. Trump doesn't want to rebuild Iran, because he won't do it.Alarms are sounding all around Democrats and other Leftists, but they choose to ignore them.Or are they ignoring them? I think they recognize the alarms, but pretend not to notice them…I know that news can spin a lot of things, but reality exists all around. I know that you can become numb to certain experiences, so you don't see things through a clear perspective.They are like children growing up in a dysfunctional home only understands that dysfunction unless he or she is removed from it.Even then, it's still difficult to get the child to think differently.They want us thinking about Tucker Carlson, Owens, Bannon, and so on.

Just weeks after a clean bill of health, Giancarlo Stanton's shocking admission about his elbow pain has Yankees fans on edge. If he “can't open a bag of chips,” how can he swing a bat for a full season? Evan and Tiki react to Stanton's revealing quotes, Aaron Boone's defense of his toughness, and what this really means for the Yankees' lineup plans. Plus, the Yankees quietly add veteran Randal Grichuk to the mix. Is it simple bench depth, or a sign the team is bracing for Stanton to miss significant time? The conversation expands to Jason Domínguez, Spencer Jones, and whether this injury could fast-track the youth movement in the Bronx. Is Stanton being heroic… or is this a warning sign the Yankees can't ignore?

Jonathan Schanzer of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies sounds alarms on Iran, assessing the regime's threatening posture and capabilities as Tehran continues destabilizing activities across the Middle East.1863 NYC

Late one night, alone in an old villa that once functioned as a hotel, he heard footsteps where no one should have been. When three heavy knocks echoed through the massive wooden doors, the security camera showed nothing. No people. No cars. No movement at all. Just a street that felt… wrong. As if time itself had slipped.Instinct told him not to step outside.What followed were vivid dreams, a voice screaming for help in a language he barely remembered using, and repeated encounters suggesting the villa—and the street beyond it—weren't limited to one moment in time. Other students felt it too. Doors opened on their own. Alarms triggered without cause. People were frightened in separate rooms at the exact same moment.Some places don't let you pass through unnoticed. And some doors, once opened, don't lead where you expect.#RealGhostStories #TrueParanormal #HauntedPlaces #FlorenceItaly #HauntedItaly #ParanormalEncounter #Unexplained #GhostEncounter #TimeSlip #Otherworldly #HauntedBuildings #MidnightEncounters #ParanormalPodcast #TrueGhostStory #SomethingFollowedMe Love real ghost stories?
