Muscle cramps are frustrating, unpredictable, and often misunderstood. In this episode, Dina and Bob unpack three key contributors to muscle cramping, going beyond the usual “hydration and electrolytes” explanation. They share real-life athlete examples, explore the role of neuromuscular fatigue, and explain how terrain-specific training (or lack of it) can set athletes up for mid-race cramping. Whether you're a salty sweater, an over-reliant supplementer, or just confused by conflicting advice, this episode brings clarity to a common issue.-------Book a sweat sodium test with Dina in Boulder, Colorado, to learn whether your hydration and electrolyte strategies could be contributing to your muscle cramping. Alternatively, contact Dina to schedule a sweat sodium testing clinic for your training group onsite. Subscribe to our show to get the free weekly episodes and also check out the YouTube channel.You can also support the podcast, help us to remain 100% ad-free, and get access to exclusive bonus content and behind-the-scenes conversations with Bob and Dina.

Hello to all of you lovely listeners out there.From June 1st 2025, the Haunted UK Podcast will be making a few changes to how you can help support the show. In the past, Patreon would have been the goto option for so many, but after a series of incredibly damaging charges issued by companies such as Apple…mentioning no names…we decided to take a step back and have a think about how we could offer you, our fantastic listeners, the best possible alternative to those unnecessary charges.So, from the date already mentioned, the Haunted UK Podcast will not only be on Patreon, but we'll also now be on Kofi…and the price you see for the tier…is the price you'll pay…no charges…nothing hidden…no more, no less.Our three tiers will also be shrunk down to just two – SPOOKED @ £3.00 per month, our dip your toe in the water kinda tier – and POSSESSED @ just £7.00 per month, our top of the line tier. We've also decided to stop releasing our series Movie Haunts, simply because it just didn't seem to be popular to the wider audience.Another alteration will be to our series Talk Haunts, our interview-based spin off. We're not completely phasing it out, but we are going to pick and choose the times when we release these types of episodes…so that could be once every 3 months…or maybe every 6 months.With the time that we'll have clawed back from not doing these episodes, we'll be much more focused on doing what we feel we do best…releasing episodes about ghosts, hauntings, poltergeists…the paranormal…the supernatural…the unknown…the unexplained…and of course…your listeners' stories.These episodes will form the basis of our two tiers…more great content, but the type of content that we all know and love. And as with Patreon, if you love the community side of being a tier member, and that's what might be holding you back from joining Kofi or swapping from Patreon to Kofi…then don't worry…we've got you covered.We now have our Discord Server so, you can chat, message, video or voice call. You'll have automatic access to this when you sign up to either tier…but this server will also be available to existing and new Patreon members…we want to keep this community as connected and together as humanly possible.And to make our entire back catalogue more accessible to you on ko-fi, you'll also be given access to a cloud-based drive, where you'll find every single one of our episodes, all organised into easy to navigate folders.We can't wait to see you either on Patreon or Kofi, and if you're already an existing member of Patreon, then we simply can't thank each and every single one of you enough for all of your amazing support.So, with all of that said, if you want to take advantage of Ko-fi and sign up to a tier right now…then it's easy – go to Ko-fi.com/hauntedukpodcast, and you'll find us straight away. Alternatively, just type something like “haunted uk podcast on kofi' into a web browser, and you'll soon be on our page.So, until the next time…until the next episode…stay safe…and take care.Haunted UK Podcast Patreonko-fi.com/hauntedukpodcastWebsite: https://hauntedukpodcast.com/Instagram: Haunted UK PodcastTwitter/X: @hauntedukpodWe're also now on Facebook – please join us there!You can also find us on Tiktok here https://www.tiktok.com/@hauntedukpodcast

We were in Dallas last week and had a number of people come up to us after our sessions, workshops, or keynotes asking a variety of questions. A lot of those questions were around employees—how to find them, recruit them, hire them, and retain them. One of the biggest subsets of questions we heard was: do we hire for experience or do we hire for potential? In other words, do we hire somebody who's expensive, has been in the business a long time, and theoretically knows what they're doing? Or do we hire someone who's a little green behind the ears—maybe not as heavy on the investment side, but who will require a lot of internal training? It's a great question, and one I want to tackle today. This is Scott Beebe with Business on Purpose. I'm super excited to be able to help liberate you from chaos and help you make time for the things that matter most. Hang tight until the end—I'll give you a couple of resources I think will be really helpful for you. When you hire someone for your business, you have to understand that you're essentially entering into a relationship that's somewhat like a marriage. There's a long-term aspect to it. It's not actually marriage, but you get what I'm saying. That underscores the importance of approaching hiring with clarity—but it doesn't stop there. The onboarding process is equally crucial for setting the right tone and expectations when bringing on a new person. To ensure a smooth transition for new team members, I recommend implementing a documented, checklist-based onboarding system. This system should be detailed and structured—breaking down the first four weeks (or even eight to twelve weeks) into specific time blocks. For example, you might have a plan for Week 1, Day 1, Hour 1, followed by Week 1, Day 1, Hour 2, and so on. Now lest you think this is silly—we actually have a new team member starting tomorrow. At the time of this recording, they'll be coming in at 7:30 AM, and we've got their entire day lined out—not just tomorrow, but the next four weeks. We've extended that level of detail so we can give them great clarity from day one. Regardless of whether you're hiring for experience or for potential, if you have that kind of meticulous plan, it communicates a couple of things up front. First, it shows that your business has established procedures and expectations, and that you expect them to follow them—because you do. Second, it demonstrates that your organization values transparency over chaos and provides a structured environment for success. And finally, it sets the expectation that once onboarded, your new team member should maintain that level of precision and organization in their own work—especially when dealing with others in the business. When it comes to talent acquisition, you have two main options. Let's go back to that idea. You can pursue top-tier, experienced professionals, but be prepared for the associated cost, responsibilities, and investment. Hiring world-class talent often means you're buying the whole field—in other words, you're investing in the entire skill set and experience, which comes with a premium price tag, and sometimes, premium drama and the need for higher-level management. Alternatively, you can recruit individuals who may not have extensive experience but show a lot of potential—or have the right character. This can be effective if you've built a business with clear processes and systems. In that scenario, you're relying on your well-structured culture to shape and develop these hires into top-performing team members over time. Both strategies have their merits. The choice depends on your business's specific needs, your resources, your long-term goals, and your willingness as a leader. But whichever path you choose, remember that clarity in your procedures and expectations is key to successfully integrating new talent and fostering their growth within the organization. Now, just a little caveat—lest you think that if you're not highly structured but you bring in someone with experience, it'll all work out—remember this: it's still a lack of clarity that you're bringing them into. So don't expect their long-term experience to compensate for internal challenges. You've got to go back and invest in the purpose, people, process, and profit. If you want to read more about this, I've got a brand new book out called The Chaos Free Contractor. Now, if you happen not to be a contractor or someone who supports contractors—don't worry. Just replace “contractor” with your own business type, and everything will still apply. You'll enjoy it. Just go to our website, BusinessOnPurpose.com, or head to Amazon.com and grab a copy of The Chaos Free Contractor.   To check the health of your business, visit mybusinessonpurpose.com/healthy today!

Hosted by Dr. Sarah Hensley, Specialized Social Psychologist, Attachment Theory Expert, and Founder & CEO of The Love Doc Relationship Coaching Services with Co-host Raina Butcher, Owner/CEO of Joyful Consulting, LLC. Welcome to "The Love Doc Podcast" Season II, where Host Dr. Sarah Hensley and her co-host Raina Butcher dive deep into the intricacies of love, attraction, attachment, relationships, and self-awareness. Dr. Hensley brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to help listeners navigate the complexities of modern romance. In each episode, Dr. Hensley tackles burning questions about love, relationships, and the mind's complexities, drawing from her psychological research, real-life experiences, and her own individual expertise, to provide insightful perspectives and practical advice.Episode 1, Season II | “Attachment in the Sheets: How Each Style Navigates Sex & Intimacy”Welcome to Season II of The Love Doc Podcast with Dr. Sarah Hensley, kicking off with a powerful new series: Sex and Intimacy. In this opening episode, “Attachment in the Sheets,” Dr. Hensley dives headfirst into how our attachment styles show up behind closed doors — and why understanding these patterns can completely shift the way we experience sexual connection.Dr. Hensley begins by unpacking the anxious-preoccupied (AP) attachment style in the realm of sex. APs are often the chameleons of intimacy, hyper-attuned to their partner's needs and desires but rarely in touch with their own. Their deepest fear of abandonment can lead them to override personal boundaries, agree to things that don't feel good, or mold their sexual expression entirely around what they think their partner wants. This form of self-abandonment might feel like love or closeness in the moment, but it slowly erodes the AP's internal sense of safety and sexual autonomy.Next, the fearful-avoidant (FA) style takes center stage — a deeply complex and often contradictory experience in the bedroom. FAs may begin with high emotional awareness and sensitivity to their own needs and desires, but that clarity can quickly get hijacked by old patterns of fear of betrayal or fear of vulnerability. For some, especially after trust has been broken, physical intimacy becomes a place of shutdown. Others may still engage sexually, while emotionally checking out, using physical closeness to mask the deeper disconnection they feel inside.Lastly, Dr. Hensley explores the dismissive-avoidant (DA) style — often the most misunderstood when it comes to sex. For many DAs, sex becomes the one “acceptable” avenue for intimacy, even though emotional vulnerability remains off-limits. This creates a paradox: they may initiate or enjoy sex, but still struggle to feel safe, connected, or fully present. Alternatively, DAs may avoid sex entirely, perceiving it as another emotional demand or pressure they're unwilling — or feel unable — to meet.Throughout the episode, Dr. Hensley weaves in the science of what's happening in the body — including key hormonal responses that men and women experience during and after sex, such as the bonding power of oxytocin and the physiological patterns of stress and arousal. She emphasizes that without emotional safety and secure attachment, our sexual experiences can easily become performative, disconnected, or fraught with unmet needs.This episode is an invitation to reframe how we view sex — not just as an act, but as an emotional experience shaped by our history, attachment wiring, and our ability to feel seen, safe, and truly wanted. If you've ever wondered why intimacy can feel so difficult at times  — this episode is a must-listen.Tune in to "The Love Doc Podcast" every Tuesday morning for candid conversations, expert guidance, and a deeper understanding of life, love and relationships in the modern world.

Thinking about collecting Social Security while you're still working? It's a tempting option, but there are several crucial mistakes you'll want to avoid. Using real-life stories, I'm laying out the four big pitfalls, like earning over the social security limit, jeopardizing your health savings account, mishandling Medicare enrollment, and forgetting about tax withholding. These missteps can lead to unnecessary penalties, and so I want to give some actionable strategies to help you make the most of your benefits without unpleasant surprises.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] Four key factors to consider before collecting Social Security while you're still working. [06:04] Collecting benefits while working can affect HSA contributions. [07:40] Stop HSA contributions six months before enrolling in Medicare Part A to avoid penalties. [13:32] Enrolling in Medicare Part B while having employer insurance is unnecessary, as employer coverage remains primary. [14:33] Medigap timing and social security taxes. [15:21] Social Security is taxable income for most people, which means that you will owe income tax on that money. Choosing when and how to collect Social Security is complex, especially if you intend to keep working beyond age 62. While the prospect of “double-dipping” might seem appealing, several critical factors can impact your overall benefit, tax situation, and healthcare coverage. Here are the four big mistakes I often see: 1. Exceeding the Social Security Earnings Limit One of the biggest mistakes is not understanding the earnings limit set by Social Security for those who collect benefits before reaching their full retirement age (FRA). If you start taking benefits before your FRA, which currently ranges from 66 to 67 depending on your birth year, your benefits may be reduced if your annual earnings exceed a certain threshold. Before FRA: For every $2 you earn over this limit, Social Security will deduct $1 from your benefits. The year you reach FRA: The limit jumps to $62,160, but the calculation changes to $1 withheld for every $3 over the limit, and only the months before your birthday month are counted. After FRA, there is no longer an earnings cap; you can earn as much as you want without reducing your benefits. Failing to plan for these restrictions can lead to a surprise clawback, so calculate your annual income carefully if you plan to collect early. 2. Losing Eligibility to Contribute to an HSA If you're enrolled in a high-deductible health plan and are contributing to a Health Savings Account (HSA), be wary: Once you enroll for Social Security after age 65, you're automatically enrolled in Medicare Part A. By law, you cannot contribute to an HSA while on Medicare. To make matters more complex, Medicare Part A enrollment is retroactive up to six months, and any contributions made to your HSA during that period will be considered excess contributions, exposed to a 6% IRS penalty unless withdrawn in time. Before you trigger Social Security benefits, stop your HSA contributions (and your employer's) at least six months in advance to avoid penalties and the loss of valuable tax deductions. 3. Accidental Enrollment in Medicare Part B Some assume that enrolling in Medicare Part B is required or beneficial while they keep their employer coverage, but that's not always the case. If your employer has 20 or more employees and you're covered under their group health insurance, your employer's plan remains primary, and Medicare Part B is unnecessary and costly, with premiums starting at $185/month and higher for high earners. Enrolling in Part B during this period can limit your future ability to buy a Medigap policy with automatic acceptance (no health questions or exclusions for pre-existing conditions). Unless you're losing employer coverage, it's usually best to delay enrolling in Part B and carefully respond to any enrollment communications from Social Security. 4. Not Withholding Enough Taxes on Social Security Payments Social Security benefits are taxable for most retirees, especially if you're still working. You need to anticipate the added income and withhold sufficient federal (and potentially state) taxes to avoid underpayment penalties. You can file IRS Form W-4V to have Social Security withhold federal tax from each payment, choosing between 7%, 10%, 12%, and 22%. Alternatively, increase withholding at work or make estimated tax payments. Planning ahead ensures you won't face a large bill come tax time.

We concluded by raising a question on the approach taken by the majority of the meforshim, but were happily sidetracked by my favorite Rambam in Sefer Zera'im.

More and more people have been saying that we might have AGI (artificial general intelligence) before 2030. Is that really plausible? This article by Benjamin Todd looks into the cases for and against, and summarises the key things you need to know to understand the debate. You can see all the images and many footnotes in the original article on the 80,000 Hours website.In a nutshell:Four key factors are driving AI progress: larger base models, teaching models to reason, increasing models' thinking time, and building agent scaffolding for multi-step tasks. These are underpinned by increasing computational power to run and train AI systems, as well as increasing human capital going into algorithmic research.All of these drivers are set to continue until 2028 and perhaps until 2032.This means we should expect major further gains in AI performance. We don't know how large they'll be, but extrapolating recent trends on benchmarks suggests we'll reach systems with beyond-human performance in coding and scientific reasoning, and that can autonomously complete multi-week projects.Whether we call these systems 'AGI' or not, they could be sufficient to enable AI research itself, robotics, the technology industry, and scientific research to accelerate — leading to transformative impacts.Alternatively, AI might fail to overcome issues with ill-defined, high-context work over long time horizons and remain a tool (even if much improved compared to today).Increasing AI performance requires exponential growth in investment and the research workforce. At current rates, we will likely start to reach bottlenecks around 2030. Simplifying a bit, that means we'll likely either reach AGI by around 2030 or see progress slow significantly. Hybrid scenarios are also possible, but the next five years seem especially crucial.Chapters:Introduction (00:00:00)The case for AGI by 2030 (00:00:33)The article in a nutshell (00:04:04)Section 1: What's driven recent AI progress?

Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 13 minutesSynopsis: This past Thursday night (5/8/25), in lieu of our usual Thursday night Pirkei Avos shiur for women, we took up a topic in Parashas Kedoshim - arguably the most important mitzvah mentioned therein. Many people are familiar with R' Akiva's famous statement, "This is a great principle in the Torah." Fewer people are familiar with Ben Azzai's disagreement, and his identification of ANOTHER pasuk as an even GREATER principle. We analyzed this machlokess through the eyes of a little-known commentator: N.H. Wesseley. Even if you don't agree with our conclusions, you'll enjoy thinking about the questions!Note: After giving this shiur, I published a two-page article summarizing the entire analysis.

We find in Parashat Kedoshim (19:17) the command "Hochi'ah Tochi'ah Et Amitecha" – to reprimand one's fellow who acts improperly, so that he will improve his behavior. King Shlomo, in the Book of Mishleh (9:8), offers advice regarding the proper approach to the delicate topic of Tocheha – reprimanding and rebuking. He teaches, "Al Tochah Letz Pen Yisna'eka, Hochah Le'hacham Ve'ye'ehaveka" – "Do not reprimand the scoffer, lest he despise you; reprimand the wise, and he will love you." The simple meaning of this verse is that King Shlomo is telling us whom to criticize and whom not to criticize. The "Letz," the "scoffer," should not be expected to accept criticism, and so it is best not to criticize him. Many people are simply not receptive to criticism, as they assume they are always correct, and have little interest in hearing what others have to say. Their instinctive reaction to criticism is something to the effect of, "Who are you to talk?" "What do you know?" "Don't tell me what to do." The wise person, by contrast, understands that he has something to learn from all people, even those who are not necessarily as smart as he is. With wisdom comes the humility to recognize that all people, even the brightest and most successful, make mistakes and have more to learn. And so the wise person is open to constructive criticism, and willing to accept rebuke. Therefore, Shlomo tells us not to bother reprimanding the "Letz," the arrogant cynic, but to offer criticism to the wise person who is open to being corrected and advised. Rav Yaakov Kamenetsky (1891-1986) offered an additional explanation of this verse – suggesting that King Shlomo here teaches us not whom to reprimand, but how to reprimand. He is telling us that when we offer criticism, we should do so in a manner that makes the person feel like a wise person, and not like an evil "scoffer." Unfortunately, our instinct when giving criticism is to emphasize the severity of the misdeed, and how ashamed the person should feel for having committed such an act. This approach, while instinctive, is not only ineffective, but counterproductive. If we emphasize to the person the gravity of his wrongdoing, he is likely to either reject the criticism altogether, or simply despair. He will either not want to own up to the fact that he did something terrible, and thus dismiss the criticism, or he will acknowledge the severity of his bad behavior and decide that he's just bad and so there is no reason for him to try to improve. King Shlomo thus advises us, "Do not reprimand the scoffer" – do not criticize in a way that makes the person feel lowly. Instead, "…reprimand the wise" – make him feel important, wise and capable. The right way to criticize is by emphasizing to the individual his greatness, his vast potential, how much Hashem loves him and wants him to do the right thing, how much he is capable of achieving. If we criticize in a manner that makes the person feel "wise" and capable of greatness, then he will embrace the criticism, rather than reject it. This perhaps sheds new light on the continuation of the verse here in Parashat Kedoshim. After commanding, "Hochi'ah Tochi'ah Et Amitecha," the Torah adds, "Ve'lo Tisa Alav Het." This is commonly understood to mean, "and do not bear sin on his account," that is to say, if we fail to criticize, then we are held partially accountable for the person's continued misconduct. Alternatively, however, this could be read to mean, "Do not elevate the sin." When we reprimand, we should not emphasize the severity of the act, which will cause the person to despair. Rather than "elevate" the sin, we should instead elevate the person. We should emphasize not how bad the person behaved, but rather how good he is capable of behaving, how great he can become. This is a critical lesson relevant to education. When raising children or teaching students, the focus must be on building the child's self-esteem, making the child feel capable and helping him realize his potential. Rather than "elevate" the child's inevitable mistakes and failings, we must instead "elevate" his sense of self-worth, so he recognizes how great he can be and sets out to achieve that greatness.

After discussing the halachos and applications, as codified by the Rambam, we returned to our pasuk and learned the commentary of two Geronans: Rabbeinu Yonah and Rabbeinu Sheishes ben Yitzchak.

Instead of learning the next perek the way we usually do, entirely from the ground up, we started with the commentary of Sforno (and that of his student, R' Elia di Nola) and focused on THEIR approach. (I explain my reasons for doing this at the beginning of the shiur.) We finished their introduction and got a few pesukim in, and so far, it's exciting!

Welcome to Movie Mandates, a review show in which sibling cinephiles Andrew and Keleigh force each other to watch movies according to a monthly theme!  It's Ani-May, the month where we indulge in animated films from Japan!  Hey, did you see the one about the busty high school girls with the short skirts and gravity-defying, rainbow colored hair who save the world by piloting giant robots with the one male who's an insufferable loser but for some inexplicable reason his classmates, his homeroom teacher, his childhood friend, her mom, and his sister all want to jump his bones?  And there's a talking cat? Yeah, I guess that doesn't narrow it down.  I should have been more specific. Anyway, I mandated we watch something else.  A Silent Voice, is a about a guy who bullies a girl in grade school but feels bad about it and attempts to make amends years later.  Will she forgive him?  Should she forgive him?  Are there giant robots? 0:00 - Trivial Trivia 15:47 - A Silent Voice review 1:07:04 - Next episode's mandated movie We'll be back in two weeks with another mandated movie.  If you'd like to watch it, click here to find where it's streaming or available to rent.

Intermittent fasting (IF) is wellness cool again. Its benefits are celebrated widely on many a credible health podcast and it consistently trends on social media, described as an elixir to youth and offering benefits such as improved memory, blood sugar control, cardiovascular health, fat loss and autophagy. What's not to love? IF involves eating during specific time windows and there are various ways to practice this. The less-intense approach involves a 12-hour fast and 12-hour eating window, whereas, more hardened fasters might restrict their eating, to only 8, 6 or even 4 hours. Alternatively, you may also have heard of the 5:2 diet, popularised by the late Dr. Michael Mosley, where fasters eat ‘normally' for five days of the week, whilst fasting on the remaining two (limiting calories to less than 800 on the fasting days). Like most wellness practices, fasting is a tool. For some people it is life enhancing and for others not so. In this episode, I explore IF as a tool and how it can interlink with eating disorders and disordered eating. I hope that you find it helpful.   Harriet's Substack: https://substack.com/@theeatingdisordertherapist   Harriet Frew's current offers: - Online 10 Steps to Intuitive Eating Course https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/online-courses.html Online Breaking Free from Bulimia  https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/bulimia-nervosa-online-course.html Eating Disorders Training for Professionals https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/eating-disorders-training-with-harriet-frew.html Body Image Training for Professionals https://www.theeatingdisordertherapist.co.uk/body-image-training-with-harriet-frew.html

“Sound is life for me.” The latest installment of the Earth.fm podcast, Wind Is the Original Radio, finds curator Melissa Pons in conversation with sound recordist and expedition leader George Vlad. You can listen to and read George's work elsewhere on the site - and you may already have heard recordings of his in high-profile projects such as Dune: Part Two and Mufasa: The Lion King, as well as various documentaries, TV series, podcasts, and audiobooks. The love of George's life, as a recordist and collector of sounds, is to be among wildlife sounds, trying to understand them, and getting to share them. Though he confesses to being initially fastidious about avoiding anthropophony, he explains that he has become more understanding and flexible, given how reductive it is to imagine that nature is separate from humans (and vice versa): “We are moving forward, whether we like it or not; progress happens: people need to travel and use power tools.” However, though he has become more open to recording people, he draws a line at combustion engines. He also shares about his journey from being a sound designer, when he originally saw field recordings as purely “tools or assets”, with no appreciation for the ecosystems they originated from. However, informed by his experience of growing up in the Romanian countryside - which taught him the value of loving nature and of living with it rather than trying to control it - he subsequently came to appreciate and take enjoyment from their beauty. Additional topics addressed during the episode include: The “heavy question” of decolonising sound recording and working ethically as a recordist outside of one's home culture. And, how working respectfully with locals can provide information that, as an outsider, he wouldn't otherwise be privy to - but also the importance of choosing what to share, considering the importance of certain areas to Indigenous peoples “Being careful, being mindful, trying not to create tension and problems; this is just being a human, being a nice person, having common sense - it's not just about sound recording.” Where some recordists cause damage, ignore local taboos, or go chasing after animals, George has learned to be more mindful, preferring to work with passive-recording drop-rigs, which are not only easier for him, but less disruptive for wildlife Fellow recordists who see going back to camp and having a cup of tea as ‘cheating' and consider suffering to add value to the work. While George has taken part in extreme expeditions (for example, in Sumatra and Gabon), “It was tough; I got a bunch of diseases, and it was painful, and I had to come back and spend two months taking antibiotics and trying to get better - but that didn't make the sound recordings better.” Alternatively, sometimes you're in air-conditioned lodges and being driven around (where it's unsafe to walk) - but that this is equally valid. Being attracted to the 'extremeness' of the experiences is ultimately only a way of making everything about yourself, and “that's just focusing on the wrong aspect; the soundscapes and the sound recordings are more valuable than the effort you put in, or the leeches that suck your blood” Things that George is afraid of in the field - which turns out to not be a lot, something he puts down to being brought up around cats, which can transmit Toxoplasma gondii to humans: a parasitic infection which reduces fear responses and increases risk-taking. However, he does fear losing his kit on a job Memorable field-recording experiences, including “sleeping on the edge of an active volcano in Ethiopia, without having taken any precautions” against the silica suspended in its gaseous emissions, which can cut up the lungs like broken glass… On the advise of a geologist who turned out not to have any experience of volcanoes How to incorporate study and research into a busy practice - not a problem when you “find it hard not to read”, and when research fuels excitement about new destinations. Also: recommendations of books for burgeoning recordists - not just ones on the subject of field recording itself, but useful adjacent ones, like learning to drive off-road, climb trees, or take up photography How to support conservation - not only in the form of international NGOs like WWF, but also tiny three-person initiatives where donations more appreciably go further (as long as you check that they're doing what they say they're doing!). Plus, training others in sound recording, who can potentially continue to record in their local environments when itinerant recordists have moved on What George would like to see in the future of sound recording - not just for sound recordists to be properly compensated, but for this work to become established as an valued art form in its own right, with more courses, teachers, and the corresponding improvement in people's ability to listen and pay attention to the world around them. Plus! The importance of making jam, playing video games, and reading Jules Verne.

Jesus has been inviting two opposite responses. Some are enraged, plotting his destruction. Alternatively, crowds of raving fans are growing to the point that they are dangerous. This combination of polarization and popularity presents Jesus' disciples with a subtle temptation common to us all: to be less than candid about our identification with Jesus. What we do in response to this hesitation may well decide whether we deny Jesus before men. In Luke 12:1–12, Jesus breaks down the process of apostasy and points the way forward—literally: final judgment keeps us faithful to Jesus.

I attempted to convey a theory about Rashi which I realize might not be persuasive. Curious to hear what you think! We also spent a little time on the Meiri and Rashbatz. I'm just happy we emerged with some nice practical applications!-----מקורות:אבות ד:יגרמב"ם - ספר המצוות: עשה י"ארמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תלמוד תורה א:יארמב"ם - משנה תורה: הקדמה א,מב-מגרמב"ם - פירוש המשניות: הקדמהרש"ירבינו יונהמאירירשב"ץרש"י - דברים ו:ז-----The total cost of producing my five podcasts in 2024 came to $1,455—an expense I would have otherwise had to cover myself.

Still super annoying though. 0:00 - I accidentally ripped off my dentist 2:54 - Incredibly, YouTube manages to make its platform worse 8:10 - For next year's Oscars, the academy members will have to actually watch all the films in a category to vote 15:36 - TV shows. Do I prefer all episodes released at once? Or a more staggered release schedule? 29:38 - Folks are surprised the thing The Last Of Us Part II is most well known for happened on the show 39:40 - Andor's first three season 2 episodes are just as boring as season one's! 42:24 - Monster Hunter Wilds' first festival dropped this week and I'm quite enjoying it If you missed Saturday's live broadcast of Molehill Mountain, you can watch the video replay on YouTube.  Alternatively, you can catch audio versions of the show on iTunes.

​In the case of United States v. Sean Combs (Case No. 1:24-cr-00542-AS), the defense has filed a reply memorandum supporting their motion to suppress evidence obtained through search warrants executed at Combs' residences in Los Angeles and Miami, as well as his electronic accounts and devices. The defense argues that the government obtained these warrants by making false statements and omitting critical exculpatory evidence, thereby presenting a misleading portrayal of the facts to justify the searches. They contend that certain evidence, which suggested that participation in the alleged "Freak-Off" parties was voluntary and consensual, was intentionally excluded from the warrant applications. The defense asserts that this misconduct led to the issuance of overly broad warrants, allowing the seizure of extensive personal and digital records unrelated to the alleged offenses.Alternatively, the defense requests a Franks hearing to challenge the validity of the search warrants. A Franks hearing is warranted when a defendant makes a substantial preliminary showing that a false statement was knowingly and intentionally, or with reckless disregard for the truth, included in a warrant affidavit, and that the allegedly false statement is necessary to the finding of probable cause. The defense maintains that the government's alleged omissions and misrepresentations meet this standard, necessitating such a hearing. They emphasize that without the purportedly misleading information, the warrants would lack probable cause, rendering the seized evidence inadmissible.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:  gov.uscourts.nysd.628425.187.0.pdf

President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke yesterday about “trade, Iran, etc.” and are “on the same side on every issue.” Hopefully, that means no further extensions of the U.S.-Iranian disarmament negotiations past this weekend.  Otherwise, there's a real risk the mullahs will succeed in foreclosing the only outcome with a chance of precluding them from acquiring and probably using nuclear weapons – namely, their forcible removal from power. More time invites the regime in Tehran to declare it's acquired such weapons, transforming the calculus of contending with the threat it poses. Alternatively, more time allows Iran's Chinese and Russian allies, fresh from military exercises with an increasingly problematic Egypt – to increase their regional presence, arguably making an attack on the ayatollahs too risky. Therefore, Trump and Netanyahu must stop the Iranian nuclear threat, without further delay.                                        This is Frank Gaffney.  

Only two days remain until the NFL Draft! There's uncertainty about the Eagles' strategy at the 32nd pick. Will they trade their picks for a player, or consider moving up in the draft? Alternatively, could they choose to move back and gain additional picks from a team eager to draft in the first round? In baseball, the Phillies fell to the Mets last night, finishing 4-5. Aaron Nola remains without a victory at the start of the season.

True commitment is essential for overcoming limitations and achieving real transformation. So why is commitment an issue for so many of us?  We often commit out of FOMO or ego-driven pursuits - accomplishment, praise and accumulation.  Alternatively, when we commit to people and things that are aligned with our soul's journey, commitment brings support and ease, contrary to the fear of losing freedom. We're sharing the teachings, real-life stories and tactics to grab this week's gift of strength in commitment.Join us for the next episode of Weekly Energy Boost with @ElishevaBalas and @EitanYardeni.

If your head has been spinning since Donald Trump walked into the White House Rose Garden  and declared “Liberation Day” last Wednesday, we don't blame you. And not just because it was nauseating watching the stock market or your 401(k) crash down, but because it wasn't clear what exactly we were looking at.  As our guest today, economic historian and Free Press columnist Niall Ferguson, wrote in our pages last week:  "Depending on your worldview, you probably think Trump's tariff blitz is one of two things. Either a committed protectionist is trying to Make America Great Again by killing “globalism,” ending “forever wars,” and bringing manufacturing jobs back to the United States. Let's call this Project Minecraft. Alternatively, an unhinged demagogue is crashing both the world economy and the liberal international order, mainly to the advantage of authoritarian regimes…But here is what is actually happening: The American empire that came into existence after the failed autarky and isolationism of the 1930s is being broken up after 80 years. Despite Trump's imperial impulses—wanting to annex Greenland, calling for Canada to become the 51st state—he is engaged right now in a kind of wild decolonization project." Whether or not you agree with Niall's conclusion, there's no question that the real story here is not about the particular tariff rate for Cambodia or Taiwan; rather, it's fundamentally about reordering America's place in the world.  Over the past decade, there's been an intense debate over what role America should play on the world stage, in geopolitics, in trade, and in technology. Trump has made a very clear set of decisions on that question. And that's the case whether or not most Americans understand the consequences. So what are the consequences when the U.S. acts unilaterally to upend the global trading system? What is the outcome when the U.S. weaponizes its own economic power? What happens when the world order, as we know it, is upended? Will these actions embolden our adversaries, or weaken them? Will this ultimately make us poorer, or better off? Has the American empire reached its end? And, was this inevitable or self-inflicted?  One note: While Bari and Niall were recording this conversation, Trump announced a 90-day pause on the reciprocal tariffs. Notably, there's no pause on the tariffs for China. In fact, it went up to 125 percent. But the point remains. And the face-off between America and China has only heated up. What does that mean? Is the twenty-first century destined to be ours, or China's? All these questions and more with Free Press columnist Niall Ferguson.
