So who should actually pay on a date, and what are you meant to do when the bill arrives and someone suddenly gets a bit weird about it. This week’s Friday Drinks tackles a DM from someone newly back in the dating world who’s trying to work out whether she’s being too picky, or whether she’s just finally noticing the stuff she used to brush past, like the keeping score, the silence that feels like a test, and the little gold digger jokes that aren’t really jokes. We talk through what’s a fair preference, what’s an early warning sign, and how to be clear about your money values without turning dinner into a negotiation, and we asked the community what they think is normal early on because honestly the answers are revealing. We're also talking bridging loans, which always sound simple until you’re the one trying to buy before you sell and you realise how much of it comes down to timing, pressure, and having a plan if things don’t happen as quickly as you hoped. Victoria breaks down what they actually are, when they can make sense, and where the risk really sits, and as always we’ve got community money wins and broke tips that are both useful and unhinged at the same time.

In this episode of The Valley Today Community Health series, host Janet Michael talks with Dr. Kevin Volkema, a board-certified family medicine physician at Valley Health Primary Care Greenwood, about the critical importance of primary care. From Chicago Suburbs to the Shenandoah Valley Dr. Kevin Volkema's journey into medicine began with a simple nudge. Growing up in Wheaton, Illinois, just outside Chicago, he received encouragement from two unlikely sources during high school: his own primary care physician and his chemistry teacher. Both pulled the 16-year-old aside and suggested he consider a career in medicine. Initially, Dr. Volkema didn't think much of their advice. However, during his sophomore year at the University of Illinois, he decided to take a leap of faith. He earned his EMT license and began volunteering at a clinic for the uninsured. That experience changed everything. "I really, really enjoyed that year," Dr. Volkema recalls. "Most importantly, I enjoyed working at that clinic for the uninsured. That's really where the foundation grew of this appreciation for community health and community service and this grassroots effort of making change for individuals." Today, Dr. Volkema serves as a board-certified family medicine physician at Valley Health Primary Care Greenwood. He splits his time between patient care and his role as regional medical director, bringing both clinical expertise and administrative insight to the growing Winchester community. He moved to the area this past summer with his wife, a neonatologist at Valley Health, after completing a stint in Charlottesville where she finished her fellowship. The Power of One: Understanding Primary Care's Impact When most people think of healthcare, they envision dramatic scenes from television—emergency rooms, operating theaters, intensive care units. Yet Dr. Volkema emphasizes that this high-stakes, acute care represents only a fraction of actual healthcare delivery. "The reality is that's not the majority of health or the majority of healthcare," he explains. Primary care, by contrast, serves as the quarterback, the home base, the front door to the healthcare system. The statistics backing this claim are remarkable. According to a major study published in JAMA, just one primary care physician for every 10,000 people produces measurable effects: decreased mortality, reduced hospitalization rates, fewer emergency room visits, lower healthcare costs, and improved chronic disease management. "One person could affect 10,000 lives," Dr. Volkema emphasizes. "That's a pretty huge impact." More Than Just Availability: The Three A's of Primary Care Dr. Volkema shares wisdom from one of his mentors, who told him that patients care about three things when choosing a primary care physician: they want someone who is able, affable, and available. Fail on any of these three, and success becomes impossible. Increasingly, availability has become the biggest challenge. This explains why many people default to urgent care facilities—they're open when patients need them. Nevertheless, urgent care cannot replace the continuity and comprehensive oversight that primary care provides. Valley Health has recognized this critical need and made substantial investments in primary care infrastructure. The organization has built new clinics, including the Greenwood location where Dr. Volkema practices, remodeled existing facilities, and aggressively recruited physicians to serve the growing community. Building Relationships That Save Lives Primary care thrives on continuity. Dr. Volkema particularly enjoys seeing entire families—parents, grandparents, and children—because understanding family dynamics provides crucial context for individual health. "Who you live with, how you sleep, if you're stressed, if you are eating a healthy diet, if you exercise—those are gonna influence everything," he notes. "But if I don't even understand the basics about who you are as a person or how your life works, how am I supposed to help you with your chronic medical conditions?" This relationship-building extends beyond physical health. Surprisingly, primary care serves as the largest provider of mental health services in the United States. When people experience depression, anxiety, or grief, they typically turn to their primary care physician first—not because PCPs are psychiatrists, but because patients trust them. "We've built that relationship. We've put in the effort to develop that connection with them so that when things do arise, they feel comfortable talking with us," Dr. Volkema explains. The Four Horsemen: Preventing Chronic Disease Dr. Volkema frames chronic disease management around four pillars, sometimes called "the four horsemen": cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. Much of primary care's preventive focus centers on delaying or preventing these conditions from developing. Through lifestyle modifications and mindful attention to habits, patients can potentially push back diagnoses by a decade or more. Instead of developing a chronic condition at 55, thoughtful prevention might delay onset until 65 or 75. Importantly, Dr. Volkema stresses that it's never too late to start. Impressive research demonstrates that individuals 65 and older who begin exercise and weightlifting routines show measurable improvements in bone density, muscle mass, metabolic health, and overall function. "There's never a time that's too late to start," he assures patients of all ages. "It can always make a difference." Bridging the Gap Between Generalist and Specialist Primary care physicians sometimes face skepticism about their breadth of knowledge compared to specialists' depth. Dr. Volkema acknowledges this reality while highlighting two significant advantages primary care physicians possess. First, there's that crucial continuity of care. A specialist may know everything about one body system, but they lack the benefit of a 3-, 5-, or 15-year relationship with the patient. They don't understand the full context of someone's life, medical history, and individual circumstances. Second, primary care physicians identify and fill gaps in care. When Dr. Volkema sees patients who have only followed with specialists, he consistently discovers concerning omissions: missed cancer screenings, unknown medication interactions, and unassessed common medical conditions. "It's keeping an eye on all these different facets of an individual's life and an individual's care to make sure that there's not only a hyper fixation on one type of problem or one concern, and that all the other factors are still being addressed as well," he explains. Practical Access: Getting Care When You Need It Valley Health Primary Care Greenwood currently employs five providers—three physicians, one physician assistant, and one nurse practitioner. Three additional physicians will join the practice in 2026, with one starting in May and two more in July. All providers are accepting new patients, dispelling the common misconception that no one is taking new patients in the area. Patients can research providers at valleyhealthlink.com/primarycare or valleyhealthlink.com/findadoctor. The practice offers same-day appointments for urgent needs, though it's not a walk-in urgent care facility. Patients must call to schedule, but the practice holds multiple same-day slots specifically for this purpose. Additionally, a physician assistant dedicates her entire schedule to same-day patients, providing crucial access for both established and new patients. The Greenwood location also features a full-service lab open from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Any Valley Health patient can have blood drawn there, regardless of which Valley Health physician ordered the tests. This convenience factor has proven particularly valuable for patients who work in different areas than where they live. When to Seek Care: Earlier Is Better Dr. Volkema emphasizes the importance of seeking care early in an illness. Treatments for conditions like influenza work most effectively when started soon after symptom onset. Tamiflu, for example, provides maximum benefit when begun early in the disease course—the same principle that applies to COVID antivirals like Paxlovid. The practice offers same-day testing for strep throat, influenza, and COVID-19, with results available in 15 to 20 minutes. This rapid turnaround helps patients get appropriate treatment quickly, especially important during seasons when multiple viruses circulate simultaneously. For individuals with complex medical needs who require immediate primary care—perhaps after a hospitalization or recent move to the area—Valley Health operates a transition clinic on Amherst Street near the hospital. This clinic provides bridge care while patients establish with a long-term primary care physician. The Path Forward As Winchester's Greenwood area continues its explosive growth—transforming from farmland into a bustling commercial district—Valley Health's investment in primary care infrastructure positions the community for better health outcomes. Dr. Volkema's message remains clear and hopeful: primary care access exists in the Shenandoah Valley, providers are accepting new patients, and establishing that crucial relationship with a primary care physician represents one of the most impactful health decisions anyone can make. Whether you're managing chronic conditions, seeking preventive care, or simply need someone who knows your complete health story, the door to primary care stands open. The question isn't whether you can find a primary care physician—it's whether you'll take that first step toward better health. After all, as the research shows, one physician really can change 10,000 lives. Perhaps it's time to let them change yours.

Prefabrication only reaches its full potential when it's treated as a system, not a shortcut. In this episode of Bridging the Gap, we explore what it really takes to scale prefab beyond one-off projects and into a repeatable delivery model. The discussion dives into how standardization can unlock flexibility, why prefab strategy must be defined early, and how digital tools like BIM, automation, and emerging AI capabilities can enable more predictable outcomes. We also unpack one of the biggest challenges facing industrialized construction today: owning and managing data across the full lifecycle. If you're thinking about prefab as a long-term strategy—not just a construction tactic—this episode offers a grounded, practical perspective. You'll Learn: What “systematizing prefab” means beyond standardizing components Why repeatability is the key to scaling prefab successfully How early decisions shape prefab outcomes downstream Where digital tools truly add value in prefab workflows Why data ownership and lifecycle continuity remain major gaps How standardization can support customization rather than limit it   MEET OUR GUEST Our guest is a leader working at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and industrialized construction. With a background spanning marketing, IT, systems engineering, and modular delivery, he brings a unique perspective on how prefabrication can improve speed, quality, and predictability—especially in highly standardized environments like healthcare. His work focuses on building the process infrastructure required to make prefab repeatable, scalable, and digitally connected. TODD TAKES Prefab Only Scales When You Stop Treating It Like a Project Prefab falls short when it's approached as a one-off solution instead of an operating model. The real breakthroughs happen when organizations step back and think in terms of delivery strategy, repeatability, and long-term systems. When prefab becomes infrastructure rather than an experiment, speed, predictability, and quality follow. Standardization Doesn't Kill Flexibility, It Enables It There's a persistent myth that standardization leads to cookie-cutter outcomes. In reality, a strong standardized foundation creates more flexibility, not less. When the core system is consistent, teams can adapt interiors, workflows, and use cases to real-world needs without reinventing the wheel every time. Digital Tools Matter, But Ownership Matters More Construction has no shortage of powerful digital tools. The real gap is ownership and continuity of data across the lifecycle. Without clear responsibility for the digital thread from design through manufacturing and operations, handoffs break down and value gets lost. Technology enables scale, but systems thinking makes it sustainable.   More Resources  Thanks for listening! Please be sure to leave a rating and/or review and follow up our social accounts.

Construction doesn't solely rely on blueprints and hard hats; it also relies on curiosity, hands-on learning, and people who make the buildings come to life. For those who step into job sites, success is measured by attitude, adaptability, and willingness to ask questions. From building psychological safety to leveraging technology like robotics, the modern superintendent is constantly learning how to work smarter by balancing human expertise with innovation. Erin Saiki is a superintendent at DPR Construction who started her career pursuing civil engineering at UC Berkeley and discovered a passion for construction during a 2018 summer internship with DPR. After her graduation, Erin joined DPR as a project engineer but quickly realized her strengths and enthusiasm were better suited to the field rather than an office environment. Aligning herself with DPR's field engineer program, she moved to site leadership and has since progressed to become a superintendent.   Highlights [00:20] Erin path to construction leadership.  [02:31] The importance of hands-on field experience.

In "The Optym Advantage: Smarter Routing, Planning, and Decision Making", Joe Lynch and Shaman Ahuja, Deputy CEO of Optym, discuss how applied AI and optimization maximize fleet utilization and driver profitability. About Shaman Ahuja Shaman Ahuja is currently serving as the Deputy CEO of Optym, a company specializing in prepackaged software solutions. With a robust background in technology and product management, he has held various leadership positions within Optym, showcasing his ability to drive innovation and efficiency. He began his professional journey as an intern and has progressively climbed the ranks, demonstrating a strong commitment to his career growth. His educational foundation in Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University has equipped him with the skills necessary to excel in the competitive landscape of technology and his experience at firms like Goldman Sachs further underscores his capability and adaptability in high-pressure environments. He is passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex business challenges and is dedicated to fostering a culture of collaboration and excellence within his teams. About Optym Optym, Inc. is a global leader in optimization and applied AI solutions for the transportation and logistics industry. For more than two decades, Optym has partnered with some of the world's largest trucking, airline, and rail companies to solve their most complex operational challenges. Its flagship products—including LoadAi and RouteMax—empower carriers, brokers, and fleets to maximize efficiency, increase profitability, and make smarter, data-driven decisions. Backed by deep expertise in operations research, optimization science, and machine learning, Optym builds technology that turns real-world complexity into simple, actionable workflows. Key Takeaways: The Optym Advantage: Smarter Routing, Planning, and Decision Making In "The Optym Advantage: Smarter Routing, Planning, and Decision Making", Joe Lynch and Shaman Ahuja, Deputy CEO of Optym, discuss how applied AI and optimization maximize fleet utilization and driver profitability. Optimization vs. Standard Routing: Shaman clarifies that Optym is not a turn-by-turn navigation tool. While standard routing focuses on the best path from Point A to Point B, Optym's "Decision Support" focuses on load assignment. It determines which load a driver should take next, considering all drivers and constraints simultaneously to create a holistic weekly plan for the entire fleet. Targeting the "Enterprise" Complexity: The software is specifically designed for enterprise fleets, generally starting at 200 trucks. At this scale, manual planning on whiteboards becomes inefficient. Optym solves the "utilization problem"—ensuring trucks aren't sitting idle and drivers aren't wasting hours waiting at docks—by identifying "juice to squeeze" in large, complex networks. Strategy Pivot: From TMS to Integration: Originally, Optym built its own TMS (LoadOps) to ensure data quality. However, they realized large fleets are reluctant to switch TMS providers due to operational disruption. Optym pivoted to a "Killer App" layer that integrates directly with industry standards like Trimble and McLeod, acting as a specialized intelligence layer rather than a replacement for core systems. Advanced Operational Models: Relay and "Meet & Turn": A core feature of the software is optimizing complex maneuvers like Relays (handing off trailers between drivers) and Meet & Turns (two drivers meeting at a midpoint to swap loads). By automating these schedules, fleets can keep drivers within a specific radius, allowing them to be home every night while keeping the assets moving 24/7. Bridging the "Tribal Knowledge" Gap:The industry faces a crisis as veteran planners (who "know the network in their sleep") retire. Younger, tech-savvy employees expect modern interfaces. Optym's AI captures that "tribal knowledge" and turns it into data-driven suggestions, allowing a new hire to be as productive as a 30-year veteran within a week. Proven ROI and Efficiency Gains: Shaman shares a case study of a 900-truck fleet where Optym's pilot program covered the same amount of freight using 100 fewer drivers. This represents a nearly 20% reduction in driver costs. To lower the risk for new clients, Optym offers a 5x ROI guarantee, promising to generate $5 in value for every $1 spent. Enhancing Driver Lifestyle through Predictability: Beyond the math, the software addresses the "human" element of trucking. By using AI agents to reschedule appointments based on real-time ETAs and reducing wasted "dwell time" at shippers, Optym creates a more predictable schedule. This reduces the stress and sleep deprivation that contribute to the high health risks faced by long-haul drivers.

God's Love is in plain sight all around us, yet it seems so obscure. We may feel orphaned from homes where we once experienced spiritual vitality. Coercion and condemnation have left us on the streets looking for a better way. In John's gospel, Jesus' first words are, “What are you looking for?” and they're followed by an invitation to “come and see.” We aren't given certainty or a system to sell. We are invited to experience a common and awe-inspiring grace as we abide with Jesus. Where do people find transforming grace at Vox? What particular ways are we invited to embody Divine grace and invite others to experience this sustaining grace with us?  In this second week of our series, Eric Robinson looks at how the early believers were scattered across the Mediterranean to different cultures and how God's grace was powerfully present as they realized God was not static, but rather widening circles of mercy and belonging. Reflection Questions: What are the signs marking your journey? Wher is the last time you saw one? Who are the bicultural people in your life who might have seen the markers you missed?

Filmmaker Stephen Grayhm on Sheepdog: Honoring Veterans Through Authentic Storytelling In this episode of Oscar Mike Radio, I sit down with filmmaker Stephen Grayhm to talk about his powerful new movie, Sheepdog. The film explores the experiences of U.S. veterans, post-traumatic growth, and the importance of empathy in storytelling. Inspiration from Service and Legacy Stephen shared how his grandfather's WWII service and a chance encounter with a veteran profoundly influenced his work. Those moments sparked his mission to tell veterans' stories with honesty and respect, capturing both the pain and growth that come after service. Creating Sheepdog: Research and Responsibility Bringing Sheepdog to life took rigorous research and deep collaboration with real veterans and mental health professionals. Stephen and his team wanted to ensure the film accurately represents both communities — avoiding stereotypes while focusing on authentic emotion and human connection. Our conversation dives into what it means to tell these stories responsibly, how filmmakers can use empathy as a guiding principle, and why portrayal matters, especially when dealing with trauma and recovery. Bridging the Civilian–Military Divide At its heart, Sheepdog is about understanding, compassion, and connection. Stephen's vision is to bridge the gap between civilian and military communities through open, honest storytelling. By fostering empathy, he hopes to build a framework where people can engage in supportive conversations about veterans' healing journeys. A Mission that Continues This episode of Oscar Mike Radio celebrates more than just a movie — it's about the mission of storytelling as a form of service. Stephen's work reminds us that sharing the real stories behind those who served helps foster resilience, community, and dialogue that can heal divides. To learn more about Stephen's film, visit sheepdogthemovie.com. Thank you, Stephen, for joining me and for your dedication to honoring the voices of veterans everywhere.

Today on Bridging the Gap we'll put aside irrational fears and concentrate of a fear we'll all have if we're wise - a fear of God. As Lloyd reminded us yesterday, that doesn't mean we should tremble at the thought of God, and live in fear of what awful thing He's going to do to us if we sin.

In this episode, James Barclay, CEO of Passle, discusses how legal technology is evolving to solve a big challenge in the legal industry: cross-selling. James shares the journey of Passle—from its roots in the early internet gold rush to becoming a leading thought leadership platform for the Am Law 200. The conversation covers Passle's new AI-driven tool, CrossPitch, which helps attorneys overcome the "trust and awareness" barriers that prevent internal collaboration and revenue. James explains that while content marketing is essential for lawyers to showcase expertise, the real value lies in how that expertise is shared internally within a law firm. Research suggests that firms leave at least 10% of their revenue on the table due to ineffective cross-selling. To address this, Passle developed CrossPitch, an AI tool that analyzes attorney bios and firm-wide thought leadership to automate internal networking. Key Takeaways: The Problem of Silos: Large firms often suffer from a lack of awareness; attorneys in different offices or practice groups are often unaware of their colleagues' specific expertise. AI-Powered Matching: Cross Pitch reads a firm's thought leadership and matches it with the bios of attorneys whose clients would benefit from that specific knowledge. Data Visualization: The platform provides a "Cross-Selling Intelligence Map" to help managing partners visualize collaboration and identify "dark spots" where practice groups are not engaging.

Key Takeaways: Fleet Profitability Unleashed: The Optimal Dynamics Advantage In "Fleet Profitability Unleashed: The Optimal Dynamics Advantage", Joe Lynch and Zach Schuchart, Senior Vice President, Head of Sales at Optimal Dynamics, discuss how decades of academic research and advanced decision intelligence are being used to automate complex logistics and maximize carrier profitability. From Research to Reality: The Princeton Pedigree. Optimal Dynamics isn't just another tech startup; it is built on 40 years of academic research from Princeton University. This provides a level of scientific rigor and proprietary AI that differentiates their solutions from standard off-the-shelf logistics software. The Power of "Decision Intelligence". While many platforms focus on data visibility (showing you what is happening), Zach highlights the shift toward Decision Intelligence. This layer automates and optimizes the choice itself, helping carriers move from reactive management to proactive, data-driven execution. Bridging the Gap Between Planning and Execution. Leveraging Zach's 20+ years of experience at giants like UPS and XPO, the episode explores how traditional planning often fails when it hits the "real world." Optimal Dynamics focuses on creating dynamic plans that account for the inherent volatility in trucking operations. Leveraging High-Dimensional Artificial Intelligence. The core technology focuses on solving "high-dimensional" problems. Instead of looking at simple variables, the platform uses AI to process thousands of data points simultaneously—such as driver hours, fuel costs, and lane profitability—to find the "Optimal" solution. Automating the Complexities of Trucking. Automation isn't just about replacing manual tasks; it's about augmenting human capability. Zach discusses how their solutions allow sales and operations teams to evaluate complex scenarios in minutes rather than days, drastically reducing the "evaluation-to-action" cycle. Maximizing Profitability in Volatile Markets. In an industry with razor-thin margins, "Optimal Dynamics" means finding the most profitable way to move freight despite fluctuating market conditions. The platform helps fleets identify which loads to accept and how to route them to ensure maximum fleet utilization. Strategic Backing for Long-Term Transformation. The company's growth is fueled by marquee investors like Bessemer Venture Partners and Koch Disruptive Technologies. This level of backing underscores the industry's belief that Optimal Dynamics is a foundational player in the future of global logistics infrastructure.

In this episode of Policy Chats, Congressman Jay Obernolte joins host Dori Pham and guest co host Lloyd Levine for an in depth conversation on artificial intelligence policy, innovation, and democratic governance. Drawing on his background as a computer engineer, entrepreneur, former mayor, and state legislator, Congressman Obernolte explains how his technical training shapes his approach to federal policymaking on emerging technologies.As Chair of the House Subcommittee on Research and Technology, Congressman Obernolte walks listeners through how Congress is thinking about AI beyond headlines and hype. He breaks down key distinctions between generative and non generative AI, deterministic and non deterministic systems, and why focusing on outcomes rather than tools is central to effective regulation. Using real world examples from healthcare, transportation, and consumer protection, he explains how sector specific oversight can better manage risk while still supporting innovation.The discussion also explores the national and global dimensions of AI policy. Congressman Obernolte compares the United States approach with the European Union model, outlines the task force report he led on a federal AI framework, and explains the proposed hub and spoke system that coordinates sector regulators with shared technical standards. He addresses tensions between federal and state authority, arguing for clear national guardrails that preserve interstate commerce while allowing states to regulate AI use within sectors they already oversee.From a student perspective, Dori Pham raises questions about AI in education, productivity, and the future of work. The conversation turns to how lawmakers can set guardrails that protect the public from misuse without slowing innovation that could expand opportunity and economic growth for younger generations. The episode closes with reflections on bipartisan cooperation, public trust, and the challenge of misinformation in an AI driven world.Topics CoveredCongressman Obernolte's path from AI researcher to entrepreneur to federal policymakerWhat artificial intelligence means beyond generative modelsDeterministic versus non deterministic AI explained in plain languageSector specific regulation versus one size fits all approachesThe House AI Task Force report and proposed federal frameworkBalancing innovation with accountability and public safetyFederal and state roles in AI policy and interstate commerceAI and global competition with China and other nations

Send us a textEpisode 359: In this episode of The Heavy Duty Parts Report, Jamie Irvine speaks with Aaron Rivers, CEO of Emotiv Mobility, and Tim Kelly, the company's lead engineer, about their development of a hybrid power transfer case designed to modernize commercial vehicle electrification. Aaron explains how the idea emerged from recognizing the limitations of all‑electric commercial vehicles—especially in vocational applications where range, idle time, and auxiliary power needs make full electrification impractical. Tim breaks down how the system captures rotational energy from the transfer case to generate usable electric power, improving efficiency, reducing fuel and maintenance costs, and enabling new operational flexibility. The conversation explores engineering challenges, OEM interest, the importance of education in technology adoption, and the broader role commercial vehicles play in supporting society. The episode closes with a look at future enhancements and a call to recognize the critical role commercial vehicle innovation plays in global mobility.Links·         EmotivMobility.comSponsors of this EpisodeThe Hub Corp: Introducing the new standard in wheel-end protection: The Hub Corp's revolutionary XTRACTOR™.
