There are two lions stalking the earth with opposite objectives, but they don't have equal power. Jesus has won total, complete, eternal, irreversible victory over Satan and the kingdom of darkness. The Lion of Judah has triumphed! In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict raging in the earth and how we can stand firm against the enemy by staying close to the Lion of Judah. We are not powerless or called to be spectators in this fight. We are invited to join the triumphal procession God has planned. Pastor Allen explains that the key to resisting the enemy and spending time in the presence of the Lion of Judah is praise, worship, and yielding our whole person to Jesus Christ—our strength, our intellect, our resources, our calendar, and our priorities. When we worship, it reframes our perception of ourselves and God, strengthening us to stand immovable and triumphant in our faith—even when we're confronted with the roar of the lion.

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication.

On pourrait croire l'histoire sortie d'un roman d'espionnage : A l'automne 1966, le romancier québécois, Hubert Aquin, est expulsé de Suisse. On lui oppose une population étrangère trop nombreuse sur le territoire. Arrivé quelques mois plus tôt pour s'établir durablement en Suisse, l'homme a surtout un passé qui pourrait contrarier les autorités : Ancien militant de l'indépendance du Québec passé dans la clandestinité. Jugé dans son pays, interné quelque temps en hôpital psychiatrique, il s'établit à Lausanne au printemps 1966 pour y vivre et y écrire. Alertées de sa présence, les polices cantonale et fédérale le surveillent et placent son téléphone sur écoute. Elles craignent qu'Hubert Aquin ne joue le rôle d'un agent de liaison entre les indépendantistes québécois et jurassiens. Ces-derniers sont très actifs cette année-là. Pour comprendre cet accueil épineux d'Hubert Aquin en Suisse, Pierre Jenny a rencontré Claude Hauser, professeur d'histoire contemporaine à l'Université de Fribourg et co-directeur du Centre suisse d'études sur le Québec et la francophonie. Il nous emmène au Canada, et plus précisément dans le Québec des années 1960 qui vit à l'heure de la Révolution tranquille. https://www.erudit.org/fr/revues/globe/2010-v13-n1-globe3916/044640ar.pdf

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Thank you for joining me today and following us throughout Project 23. If you would like to learn more about this project, click the link to discover more and partner with us. Our text today is Mark 13:32-37: “But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning— lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.” — Mark 13:32-37 The final words of Jesus in this chapter are gentle. But not casual. They aren't loud commands. They're more like a whisper in the dark: “Stay awake.” He doesn't say this once—He says it three times. Not because you need more information, but because you need more awareness. Jesus doesn't tell us the day or the hour. Not because he's hiding it. But the posture of readiness is better than a countdown clock. A master has gone away. Servants have been entrusted with a task. Each one has a role. And no one knows the exact hour of return. But he is returning. And Jesus doesn't want his people found sleeping, not distracted, disinterested, or disengaged. Not lulled to sleep by comfort, busyness, or pride. He wants us awake. Alert. Tuned in. Working, watching, and ready. What does it mean to stay awake? Here are five actions: It means tending your soul. It means choosing holiness over habit. It means letting the Word sharpen you and the Spirit soften you. It means living today like it matters, because it does. It means living tomorrow like it could be your last, because it might be. Jesus isn't trying to stir anxiety. He's stirring urgency. Because when He returns—and He will return—you won't be able to hit snooze. So wake up. Get in the Word. Cut out the compromise. Live like He's near. Because He is. #StayAwake, #Mark13, #JesusIsComing ASK THIS: Why do you think Jesus repeats “stay awake” three times? What areas of your spiritual life are growing dull? What daily rhythms can help you stay alert to Jesus' return? If Jesus returned today, what would He find you doing? DO THIS: Choose one habit today that's been putting your soul to sleep—and cut it off. Replace it with something that stirs spiritual alertness. PRAY THIS: Jesus, wake me up. If I've grown numb, shake me. If I've grown lazy, correct me. I don't want to be found asleep—I want to be found faithful. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Keep Me Burning."

This Podcast Is Episode 639, And It's About Pillar 3: Delivering Construction Projects Profitably A Construction Bookkeeper's Guide to Smarter Production for Small Contractors You've done the hard work: marketed your services, landed the job, and priced it to make a solid profit. But here's where a lot of small construction businesses lose money—even after doing everything right up to this point.   That moment is project execution—or what we in the business world call production.   As construction bookkeeping specialists, we've seen many jobs transition from profitable to painful simply because the contractor lacked systems in place to track costs, manage scope, or control labor once the work commenced.   Let's discuss Pillar 3: Delivering Projects Profitably, and how refining your production process can safeguard your profits, enhance your reputation, and alleviate stress.    Why "Doing the Work" Isn't Enough Many contractors assume that once the job starts, the hard part is over. But production is where the majority of the risk lives: Labor costs can balloon Materials may get wasted or delayed Clients can change their minds mid-project Subcontractors may not show up when they're supposed to Scope creep can kill your margins without you realizing it From a bookkeeper's point of view, this is when the numbers begin to go awry. Profitability doesn't just come from winning jobs—it comes from controlling how they're delivered. What "Delivering Profitably" Actually Means To deliver projects profitably, you need to finish the job: On budget On schedule With the client happy enough to pay (and refer you) It's not just about good craftsmanship. It's about project management. Whether you're a solo operator or have a small team, production needs structure. Fortunately, it doesn't need to be complicated. Where Small Contractors Lose Profit During Production Before we dive into solutions, let's look at where money is most often lost on the job site: 1. Untracked Labor If you don't know how many hours you or your crew are spending on a job, you can't compare it to your estimate. It's one of the most common profit-killers we see in the books. 2. Material Overruns Materials get lost, over-ordered, or wasted—especially if you're not reconciling purchases to job estimates. 3. Unbilled Change Orders Clients often add or alter project elements. If those changes aren't documented and billed, you're giving away free work. 4. Delays and Downtime Time is money. Waiting on materials, subs, or client decisions can derail your schedule and cost you future jobs. 5. Scope Creep "Can you just add this one little thing?" becomes a margin-eating monster when not adequately managed. Now, let's talk about how to prevent those losses and protect your bottom line. 7 Ways to Deliver Projects More Profitably 1. Start with a Clear Scope and Signed Agreement It may sound simple, but many contractors begin work without a detailed, signed agreement. You need: A detailed scope of work Payment milestones A change order policy Completion criteria This sets expectations and gives you leverage when things change (and they will). 2. Create a Simple Project Timeline Even a basic calendar or whiteboard showing: Job phases Material delivery dates Key milestones can help you stay on track and manage client expectations. Suppose you're using software like Buildertrend or Jobber, great. If not, even a shared Google Sheet can work. The goal is visibility. 3. Track Labor in Real Time You can't manage what you don't measure. Use time tracking tools (like ClockShark or QuickBooks Time), or even a shared text log, to record: Who worked For how long On which part of the job This allows you (and your bookkeeper) to identify when jobs are dragging and compare actual versus estimated hours. 4. Monitor Materials Closely Set up a simple system to: Track what materials were ordered Match receipts to jobs Avoid duplicate purchases If you have frequent material overruns, your bookkeeper can help you adjust future estimates and avoid surprises. 5. Enforce a Change Order Policy This one is HUGE. Every time a client asks for something outside the original scope, pause and issue a change order. Even a one-page form signed via email or a mobile app is sufficient. Change orders should: Define the change List any added costs or time Be signed before work continues When this is routine, you stop giving away "just one more thing" for free. 6. Communicate Early and Often Most client disputes happen when they're left in the dark. Set the standard for regular updates: A weekly progress email A shared photo log A short call every Friday This maintains high trust and prevents minor issues from escalating into unpaid invoices or negative reviews. 7. Review Project Profitability After Completion After every project, sit down with your bookkeeper (or even just your notes) and ask: What was the estimated vs. actual cost? Where did we exceed our budget or deadline? Did we bill for all extras? What should we do differently next time? This post-job review turns every project into a learning tool that improves your future estimates, planning, and pricing. Where Bookkeeping Supports Better Production As your construction bookkeeping specialists, we can help you: Track job costs accurately during the project Alert you when a job is going over budget Ensure change orders are captured and billed Break down labor and materials per project Provide job-by-job profit reports In short, good production data = good financial reporting. And when we work together, we can spot patterns that help you grow smarter.

Tribute podcast to the legendary coach John Wooden.  In the spirit of studying the Masters... this podcast is both a tribute and a structure for coaching excellence in both sport and business. John Robert Wooden was an American basketball coach and player. Nicknamed "the Wizard of Westwood", he won ten National Collegiate Athletic Association national championships in a 12-year period as head coach for the UCLA Bruins, including a record seven in a row.  Song Title: “The Pyramid of Success” (Inspired by John Wooden's Philosophy of Coaching) Verse 1 He never talked of winning, never chased the fame, But his teams lit the fire, and they changed the game. Ten banners hanging, but he'd always say, “It's giving your best that will show you the way.” Not the score, not the crowd, not the glory above, But the work, and the trust, and the game played with love. Chorus Build your life like a pyramid, brick by brick, Hard work and heart, that's the magic trick. Friendship and loyalty, spirit that won't rest, If you've done your very best, you've already passed the test. It's not about winning, but how you give your all, Stand tall, be true, and you'll never fall. Verse 2 Industrious hands, and a fire in your soul, Enthusiasm lifts you, and makes the dream whole. With self-control steady, and eyes wide awake, Alert to each moment, each choice that you make. Initiative calls — don't wait, take the shot, Intentness will carry you through what you're not. Chorus Build your life like a pyramid, brick by brick, Hard work and heart, that's the magic trick. Friendship and loyalty, spirit that won't rest, If you've done your very best, you've already passed the test. It's not about winning, but how you give your all, Stand tall, be true, and you'll never fall. Verse 3 (New Verse – Wooden's Motto & Definition) “Make each day your masterpiece,” the coach would say, “Success is peace of mind you find along the way. It's knowing deep inside, when the game is through, You became the best that you're capable to.” Not chasing applause, not fear of defeat, But the quiet pride of a job complete. Bridge Condition your mind, your body, your heart, Skill is the art where mastery starts. Team spirit's the soul — we all rise as one, When the battle gets tough, that's where greatness is won. Poise under pressure, and confidence deep, Competitive greatness — that's the climb you keep. Final Chorus Build your life like a pyramid, brick by brick, With faith and with grit, you'll make each moment stick. It's not about trophies, but the life that you live, The lessons you learn, the love that you give. Coach Wooden knew the truth, and he taught it well: Your best is the story that only you can tell. Outro So here's to the coach who showed us the way, That the score means nothing if your heart didn't play. Live with courage, with kindness, with success in your chest, For the only true victory… is giving your best.

Episode 197: Continuous Glucose MonitoringWritten by William Zeng, MSIII, and Chris Kim, MSIII. University of Southern California.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Will: IntroToday we're exploring Continuous Glucose Monitoring, or CGM. We'll break down what CGM is, who benefits, how to access it, options available for our patients, the pros and cons, and a few final reflections on where this technology is heading. Chris, So what is CGM?Chris:Continuous glucose monitoring refers to the use of a small wearable sensor placed just under the skin to track glucose levels in real time throughout the day and night. These sensors measure glucose in the interstitial fluid and transmit readings to a receiver or smartphone at regular intervals, allowing for 24/7 glucose trend tracking. Will:CGM has been shown to improve glycemic control, increase “time in range,” and reduce hypoglycemia. Let's review some evidence.Chris:A 2023 meta-analysis published in Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics reported a mean Hemoglobin A1c reduction of 0.43% across multiple trials. Will:In people with Type 1 diabetes, the IMPACT and DIAMOND studies showed sustained improvement in Hemoglobin A1c and hypoglycemia reduction over 6–12 months. CGM use in insulin-treated Type 2 diabetes patients also resulted in significant benefits, including reduced variability and fewer severe glucose excursions. Chris:Clinically and economically, CGMs help prevent long-term complications such as cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, and retinopathy. Chris, What patients specifically benefit the most from CGM?Will: CGMs are most commonly indicated for people with Type 1 diabetes and for those with Type 2 diabetes who are using intensive insulin regimens—typically defined as multiple daily injections or insulin pump therapy. Chris:And what are the qualifications in order to be covered by insurance?Will:In the United States, Medicare covers CGM as durable medical equipment for qualifying patients, and coverage requires a prescription, documentation of insulin use, and regular follow-up. Most major private insurers—including Blue Cross, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, and Kaiser—follow similar guidelines. Coverage is generally granted for patients with Type 1 diabetes or insulin-requiring Type 2 diabetes who monitor glucose at least four times daily or use an insulin pump. Chris:Some plans require demonstration of hypoglycemia unawareness or frequent glucose variability. For patients not on insulin, OTC CGMs may be an option, but coverage is typically not provided. That said, new FDA decisions are allowing over-the-counter access to CGMs like Abbott's FreeStyle Libre and Dexcom's Stelo, expanding availability for lifestyle or preventive purposes.Will:[There are a lot of products on the market. Which are the main products and how are they different?]Chris:The three main players in the CGM space are Dexcom, Abbott (FreeStyle Libre), and Senseonics (Eversense), each with unique offerings.Let's start with Dexcom. Dexcom G7 is a real-time CGM system approved for both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. It combines a sensor and transmitter into one compact wearable patch worn on the abdomen or upper arm for up to 10 days. It updates glucose readings every 5 minutes and connects directly to a smartphone or Apple Watch via Bluetooth. Dexcom also integrates with insulin pumps like Tandem's t:slim and the Omnipod 5. Data can be shared with providers through Dexcom Clarity, which integrates into electronic medical records (EMRs) like Epic. OTC access is not yet available for DEXCOM G7, but a new non-prescription product called Dexcom Stelo is being rolled out in 2025, targeting non-insulin-using Type 2 patients. Dexcom Stelo will also offer 15-day wear, smartphone integration, and factory calibration. The estimated OTC cost for Dexcom Stelo is expected to be around $99 for a 15-day sensor, or about $198/month.Will:$200! Abbott FreeStyle Libre comes in several versions. The Libre 2 offers 14-day wear and requires users to scan the sensor with their smartphone or reader to retrieve a glucose value. It has optional real-time alarms for high and low readings and transmits data to LibreView, which can integrate with most EMRs. Libre 3 is a real-time CGM with 1-minute interval updates, Bluetooth transmission, and a slimmer profile. Libre sensors are widely used in primary care and available OTC for non-insulin users. Libre 2 sensors cost approximately $70–$85 for a 14-day sensor, while Libre 3 is slightly higher, around $85–$100 per sensor—totaling about $140–$200/month out of pocket without insurance.Chris:Senseonics Eversense E3 is the only implantable CGM on the market. It involves a minor in-office procedure to insert the sensor under the skin of the upper arm, which lasts up to 180 days (and a newer version, Eversense 365, lasts up to one year). A removable transmitter worn on top of the skin sends data every 5 minutes to a mobile app and vibrates for alerts. It requires 1–2 calibrations per day using a traditional fingerstick meter. It integrates with Eversense DMS software for physician monitoring. The total cost for Eversense depends on the insertion procedure and insurance, but cash pay for the full 6-month system is estimated at $2,400–$3,000, or about $400–$500/month including follow-up visits.Will:Additional lower-cost CGMs such as the Medtrum A6 TouchCare are available internationally and in select U.S. pilot programs. These devices offer 14-day wear, smartphone syncing, and daily calibration, but are not yet FDA-approved for wide use and lack full EMR integration.Chris:In terms of performance and value, Dexcom G7 offers the most advanced real-time feedback and integration, making it ideal for those on insulin pumps or needing tight control. Will:FreeStyle Libre offers the best affordability and convenience, especially for non-insulin users or those who prefer not to deal with constant alerts. Eversense offers a niche but compelling option for people who want to avoid frequent sensor changes. Chris, [Are there any downsides or risks that patients should be aware of before trying out CGM?]Chris:CGMs are generally safe and well-tolerated, but they do have limitations. Dexcom G7 has a known failure mode where sensors sometimes fail prematurely, often before the full 10-day duration. Some users have reported “signal loss” errors or random disconnections, especially when switching between phone models or operating systems. There are occasional reports of inaccurate highs or lows due to compression during sleep or dehydration. Though the G7 is factory-calibrated, abrupt changes in hydration or blood flow can affect its readings.Will:FreeStyle Libre systems, particularly Libre 2, require the user to scan the sensor to retrieve data unless alerts are enabled. These devices may be affected by vitamin C (ascorbic acid), which can falsely elevate glucose readings, and they do not currently allow for automated insulin delivery integration. Some Libre 2 users have noted adhesive-related rashes or spontaneous detachment. Libre 3, while more advanced, still may lose Bluetooth connection intermittently, particularly if the phone is out of range or the app is not running in the background.Chris:Senseonics Eversense carries procedural risks due to its implantable nature. Minor scarring or infection at the insertion site has been reported. The transmitter must be worn during waking hours to provide alerts, and users report anxiety over losing the transmitter since data logging is interrupted without it. Calibration is still required, which adds to daily tasks. Additionally, the sensor does not communicate with insulin pumps or closed-loop systems.Will:All CGMs can cause mild skin irritation from adhesive, particularly in users with sensitive skin. Alert fatigue is another consideration, as frequent low- or high-glucose warnings may cause stress or lead users to silence notifications entirely. Finally, relying solely on CGM without periodic fingerstick confirmation in symptomatic scenarios can be a risk, especially during rapid glucose changes.Chris:Conclusion[***] Continuous glucose monitors have reshaped the way we manage diabetes, offering unprecedented insight into glucose trends, diet responses, and insulin timing. While CGMs are not flawless, the technology continues to evolve. Will: If your patient is on insulin or struggling with glucose variability, consider whether CGM is right for your patient. For those not using insulin, consider newer OTC options like FreeStyle Libre or Dexcom Stelo, which offer accessible entry points without the need for prescriptions. As AI integration, longer sensor life, and non-invasive monitoring enter the market, CGM will only become more useful.Dr Arreaza: Personal experience with CGMs. I do not have diabetes, but I have a strong family history of diabetes (including father, 2 grandmas, and about 15 uncles, aunts, and cousins.)I wanted to try it so I could teach my patients about CGM. My first experience was with Freestyle Libre 2: Pros: Painless placement, easy to use, scanning with phone was easier than fingersticks.Cons: Required some assembling to be placed, mild discomfort at night, and nighttime alarms.Dexcom G7:Pros: No need for scanning, feels more stable in your armCons: High readings (had to calibrate for a more accurate reading)Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss interoception, the brain's ability to sense and interpret signals from the body, which shapes our sense of self and underlies vital functions like focus, sleep, healing and emotions. I explain how the body communicates different types of information to the brain, influencing processes like digestion, heart rate and immune function. I also describe practical tools such as breathwork to regulate alertness, strategies to support gut health and reduce sugar cravings, and awareness practices to enhance interoception.

Ch. 14 - Time Past and Time Present from Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner DELHI HOT LIKE A KILN. I wandered through empty streets at midday making final connections. London like a plunge into ice water, only hours later. I stood shivering in the transit lounge, my thin wool shawl wrapped tight around my shoulders, my socks incongruous in Indian sandals, even more incongruous in white pajama clothes, amidst fur and leather coats, heavy sweaters and fat, flushed, liquor-stained faces. I was emaciated by comparison. Crash landing in Boston, hours late. Time sense destroyed. I slept last in Calcutta. A strange wakefulness haunted my body. Alert to ponderous events all around me, I followed my breath as a customs official began pawing through my bag. Suddenly he stopped and handed it back to me with an apologetic smile. I felt a rising thickness in my throat to get beyond that door. She would be waiting. At first she wasn't sure she could, but after letters back and forth, she'd finally agreed. ... by Eric Lerner 2025 34 minutes 47 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.

"I'm not afraid. It's the Wizard who should be afraid of me." We watched "Wicked" with our good Judy, Mitchell Anderson, and it was just as good as the first time we watched it! We knew we wanted to review this episode here on our show, and we thought there's no time like the present. Here we are, about halfway between the release of "Wicked" and her upcoming sequel, "Wicked: For Good," so we thought we'd take a look at what makes this movie work so darn well. Obviously, the casting of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande is on point, but the supporting cast - Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh, Bowen Yang, and company - are all so wonderful, especially under the direction of Jon M. Chu. Allowing so many of them to ad-lib and keeping those gems in the final cut is a genius stroke! We promise to keep the singing to a minimum, but whether we keep that promise is to be seen. Yes, we have some hot takes on the movie itself, but we talk about what's to come in "For Good,” our predictions on how that half of the story will be presented, as well as a couple of fun facts we dug up in our research. We may not be true theater gays at heart, but needless to say, we're "Wicked" gays now, and we will be acting as such. Alert your local all-night diner - we're coming in at 11 p.m. and causing an absolute scene like it's opening night of our high school musical!
