Podcasts about Brittain

Brittain Jeane joins the podcast to discuss all things womanhood. We chat about fashion, building a personal brand, interior design, and homemaking as it relates to self-respect, being a woman of faith, and Biblical principles.

In this week's edition of Overdrive Radio, drop into our conversation with OOIDA Executive Vice President Lewie Pugh at the Mid-America Trucking Show. Pugh was fresh off a whirlwind round of a whole lot of other talking himself, including a MATS-opening breakfast panel discussion you heard here a couple weeks back, then prior to that on Wednesday the week of the truck show in the halls of Congress where he joined a panel of trucking and other industry reps to talk through significant issues ahead of the highway bill reauthorization due next year. Pugh made headlines for his urging of federal reps to get a handle on the scope of so-called “non-domiciled CDLs” issued to residents of foreign countries by states here in the U.S. for work OTR or in other industries on a temporary basis. It's an issue that's risen to prominence this year as attention to it has increased. It's but one of the issues Pugh addressed in Congressional testimony, likewise in what follows in the podcast, yet one we heard about also from trucker Teresa Brittain in the wake of MATS. English proficiency violations used to be treated by the Comercial Vehicle Safety Alliance of inspectors and industry as an out of service violation, yet when CVSA removed that out of service violation about a decade ago now, FMCSA subsequently relaxed guidance on how to enforce the violation itself. Paired with some DOT changes for states around non-domiciled CDLs that happened later, it seems to have gotten simpler for foreign country residents to come into the country to work over the road with a CDL. How many such people are working in the U.S. today? Nobody can really answer that question, as has been evident from Overdrive's Alex Lockie's ongoing reporting around the issue: https://www.overdriveonline.com/15741322/ Brittain flagged the importance of the English language proficiency regs, though, particularly when it comes to roadside inspections. She noted a conversation at MATS she herself had with Kentucky state truck enforcement about the issue. “How does any state law enforcement officer do an inspection on the truck if the driver cannot follow instructions to inspect it?” she asked. Inspectors told her essentially they can't inspect such an operator's truck, she said, “for their own safety. They told me they give 15 minutes after the initial request for the driver to contact their company and provide driver's license and required paperwork, then just let them go if the paperwork is compliant.” No inspection for the truck. Considering such dynamics, Terea Brittain then quipped, “Next inspection, I'm speaking Martian!” OOIDA along with some from the law enforcement community petitioned CVSA to return English proficiency to the out of service criteria, and CVSA's spring Workshop event is but one week away. Pugh noted owner-operators might stay tuned for any news on that front in the coming couple of weeks. Also in the podcast: RaceTrac Travel Centers Marketing Manager Nick LaFalce details growth in his company's mostly Southeast regional network of truck stops in what was once mainly just a fuel-stop network for automobile drivers. Since 2018, the RaceTrac company's been expanding high-flow diesel options and acquiring land to even add parking options within the network.

Psalm 118:1-29 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;     for his steadfast love endures forever! 2 Let Israel say,     “His steadfast love endures forever.” 3 Let the house of Aaron say,     “His steadfast love endures forever.” 4 Let those who fear the Lord say,     “His steadfast love endures forever.” 5 Out of my distress I called on the Lord;     the Lord answered me and set me free. 6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.     What can man do to me? 7 The Lord is on my side as my helper;     I shall look in triumph on those who hate me. 8 It is better to take refuge in the Lord     than to trust in man. 9 It is better to take refuge in the Lord     than to trust in princes. 10 All nations surrounded me;     in the name of the Lord I cut them off! 11 They surrounded me, surrounded me on every side;     in the name of the Lord I cut them off! 12 They surrounded me like bees;     they went out like a fire among thorns;     in the name of the Lord I cut them off! 13 I was pushed hard, so that I was falling,     but the Lord helped me. 14 The Lord is my strength and my song;     he has become my salvation. 15 Glad songs of salvation     are in the tents of the righteous: “The right hand of the Lord does valiantly, 16     the right hand of the Lord exalts,     the right hand of the Lord does valiantly!” 17 I shall not die, but I shall live,     and recount the deeds of the Lord. 18 The Lord has disciplined me severely,     but he has not given me over to death. 19 Open to me the gates of righteousness,     that I may enter through them     and give thanks to the Lord. 20 This is the gate of the Lord;     the righteous shall enter through it. 21 I thank you that you have answered me     and have become my salvation. 22 The stone that the builders rejected     has become the cornerstone. 23 This is the Lord‘s doing;     it is marvelous in our eyes. 24 This is the day that the Lord has made;     let us rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Save us, we pray, O Lord!     O Lord, we pray, give us success! 26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!     We bless you from the house of the Lord. 27 The Lord is God,     and he has made his light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords,     up to the horns of the altar! 28 You are my God, and I will give thanks to you;     you are my God; I will extol you. 29 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;     for his steadfast love endures forever!   Key Words: Cornerstone, Rejected, Steadfast Love, Refuge, Surrounded, Salvation, Good Keystone Verse: The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

On August 30, 2019, an experienced hiker set out along the steep, treacherous Z Trail on Hawaii's Big Island. When he failed to return, massive search efforts were stymied by thick jungles, towering cliffs, and sudden downpours—and no clues were ever found. Was it a tragic fall, or is something far more unsettling at work? Join us this week as we dive into one of Hawai‘i's most baffling, unsolved missing-person cases: the disappearance of Kyle Brittain.Learn more about Locations Unknown: https://linktr.ee/LocationsUnknownCheck out our other shows on the Unknown Media Network:Crime Off The GridOff The TrailsThe Peanut Butter and Mountains PodcastThe Weirdos We Know  Who Runs This ParkNew Patreon Shoutouts: Ellie Mae, Vanessa Gillam, Hannah Lauder, Leah Northrup, Matt Roses, Joelle Aikens, Annie Schmeckpeper, Kathy Cook.Want to help the show out and get even more Locations Unknown content!  For as little as $5 a month, you can become a Patron of Locations Unknown and get access to our episodes early, special members only episode, free swag, swag contests, and discounts to our Locations Unknown Store!  Become a Patron of the Locations Unknown Podcast by visiting our Patreon page.  (https://www.patreon.com/locationsunknown)  All our Patreon only content (Audio & Video) can now be accessed via Spotify.  (Active subscription to our Patreon channel is required.) -- Locations Unknown Subscriber Only Show | Podcast on Spotify  Want to call into the show and leave us a message?  Now you can!  Call 208-391-6913 and leave Locations Unknown a voice message and we may air it on a future message! View live recordings of the show on our YouTube channel: Locations Unknown - YouTubePresented by Unknown Media Group.Hosts: Mike Van de Bogert & Joe EratoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/locations-unknown--6183838/support.

pWotD Episode 2684: Linkin Park Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 540,248 views on Friday, 6 September 2024 our article of the day is Linkin Park.Linkin Park is an American rock band formed in Agoura Hills, California, in 1996. The band's current lineup consists of vocalist/rhythm guitarist/keyboardist Mike Shinoda, lead guitarist Brad Delson, DJ/turntablist Joe Hahn, bassist Dave Farrell, co-lead vocalist Emily Armstrong, and drummer Colin Brittain. The lineup for the band's first seven studio albums included lead vocalist Chester Bennington and drummer Rob Bourdon; following Bennington's suicide in July 2017, the band entered an indefinite hiatus. In September 2024, Linkin Park's reformation was announced along with the addition of Armstrong and Brittain.Categorized mainly as alternative rock and nu metal, Linkin Park's earlier music spanned a fusion of heavy metal and hip hop, while their later music features more electronica and pop elements. Linkin Park rose to international fame with their debut studio album, Hybrid Theory (2000), which became certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Released during the peak of the nu metal scene, the album's singles' heavy airplay on MTV led to the singles "One Step Closer", "Crawling", and "In the End" all charting highly on the US Mainstream Rock chart. The lattermost also crossed over to the number two spot on the nation's Billboard Hot 100. Their second album, Meteora (2003), continued the band's success. The band explored experimental sounds on their third album, Minutes to Midnight (2007). By the end of the decade, Linkin Park was among the most successful and popular rock acts.The band continued to explore a wider variation of musical types on their fourth album, A Thousand Suns (2010), layering their music with more electronic sounds. The band's fifth album, Living Things (2012), combined musical elements from all of their previous records. Their sixth album, The Hunting Party (2014), returned to a heavier rock sound, while their seventh album, One More Light (2017), was a substantially more pop-oriented record. Linkin Park is among both the best-selling bands of the 21st century and the world's best-selling music artists, having sold over 100 million records worldwide. They have won two Grammy Awards, six American Music Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, four MTV Video Music Awards, 10 MTV Europe Music Awards, and three World Music Awards. In 2003, MTV2 named Linkin Park the sixth-greatest band of the music video era and the third-best of the new millennium. Billboard ranked Linkin Park No. 19 on the Best Artists of the Decade list. In 2012, the band was voted as the greatest artist of the 2000s in a Bracket Madness poll on VH1. In 2014, the band was declared as "The Biggest Rock Band in the World Right Now" by Kerrang!.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:25 UTC on Saturday, 7 September 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Linkin Park on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Emma.

When the Enterprise comes across a fellow Starfleet ship, the Brittian, and everyone onboard is murdered, it's Picard and company's job to figure out why they all went bananas before the bananas happen to them! Well to figure this death-conudrum out (DEATH-UNDRUM), Picard actually doesn't do much, and Ri-dog neither. Luckily this high-falutin Galaxy-Class death trap comes with a robot because the Captain's got to hand over the wheel. Seems the crew on the Brittain killed each other save one mumbling Betazed who's the only one left alive (so this dude probably killed the last person -- right? They never talk about it!) It's not only Data but Deanna Troi doing the heavy lifting on this one -- I mean look at the cleavage when she's flying. Support your back counselor! --as she is the only one on the ship who can dream. But they ain't dreams, honey -- they're nightmares! The crew continues on a downward spiral as Bev and Diana take leadership roles while Picard gets his mind blown by a nightmare elevator accident and Riker gets snakes on his feet. Things ramp up when O'Brien becomes crankier than ever, and Whoopie pulls an automatic! Whoopie! Whoopie? At least this sister act get's to fire an actual laser! Can Diana communicate with the dream ship on the other side of the space rip thing in time? Can Picard put his trust in his android pal, Data -- yes, yes he can. Can Data show us that he can run this Galaxy Class bitch all by himself? Even more available at: https://tngeez.com

Blessed Moments on the Fifth Wednesday of the Lemma Apple Lenten Luncheon Series!

Blessed Moments on the Fifth Wednesday of the Lemma Apple Lenten Luncheon Series!

Stalking é um crime traiçoeiro. Ele pode ser difícil de definir e ainda mais difícil de provar. Muitas pessoas toleram aquela atenção indesejada de pretendentes mesmo não retribuindo aquele sentimento, porém nem sempre é claro quando a linha entre a paquera entusiástica e a perseguição ilegal foi ultrapassada. Cerca de uma em cada dez pessoas relatam ter sido perseguidas em algum momento das suas vidas, sendo as mulheres mais propensas do que os homens a serem vítimas. Os tipos de comportamentos que podem estabelecer o stalking podem variar de um pouco assustadores a totalmente violentos. Muitas vezes começando de forma branda e se transformando, quase que imperceptivelmente em algo aterrorizante. Nesse episódio vocês vão descobrir mais sobre Richard Brittain, ou como ele se denominava, o stalker benevolente. Bom, vcs já sabem né? Peguem o fone de ouvido, se acomodem e se preparem!! 

In this explainer episode, we've asked Helen Brittain, Clinical Lead for Rare Disease Diagnostics at Genomics England, to explain what a variant of uncertain significance is, in less than 10 minutes. You can also find a series of short videos explaining some of the common terms you might encounter about genomics on our YouTube channel. If you've got any questions, or have any other topics you'd like us to explain, feel free to contact us on info@genomicsengland.co.uk.   You can read the transcript below or download it here: https://files.genomicsengland.co.uk/documents/Podcast-transcripts/What-is-a-variant-of-uncertain-significance.docx  Naimah: What is a variant of uncertain significance? Today I'm joined by Helen Brittain, who's the clinical lead for rare disease diagnostics at Genomics England, to find out more. So first of all, Helen, before we dive into the topic, I'd like to go one step further back and ask you to explain what is a gene?  Helen: A gene is effectively a section of our DNA, which is our genetic code, and it contains an instruction, something important about how we grow, how we develop, how we function as a human. Humans in total have around 20,000 genes, which is our complete set of instructions, to tell us everything we need to know about ourselves.  Naimah: So, what are gene variants then, and do they all have an effect?  Helen: Variants are effectively differences within genes. So genes, like I said, are instructions, and they have a particular way that they're spelled out and structured, so that the body can understand them and make sense of that instruction. A variant is where there's something different about the way that that gene is spelled out or structured that could affect how it works, and basically a variant is a difference to what we expect to see.  Naimah: And do all of these have an effect?  Helen: So no, not all of them will have an effect. Some differences or variants within a gene may not affect the way it works at all, whereas others might alter that gene so significantly that it can't do its job anymore, and could be very significant for that person's health.  Naimah: And how do we find these gene variants?  Helen: Gene variants are exactly what we're looking for when we're trying to find a diagnosis for somebody. So, somebody with a rare condition is likely to have an underlying difference within their genes that would be the explanation for it. We're finding these through doing genetic testing or genomic testing, so looking at an individual gene, a series of genes, or even across someone's entire genetic code, through whole genome sequencing, and we find these variants through doing that testing.  Naimah: And this might be a good opportunity to mention our other Genomics 101 episode on genetic testing, if you'd like to find out some more information on that as well. So, moving on with the next question, how is a variant's significance determined?  Helen: Variants, as we say, come from the genetic tests we undertake, and there are a team of people who look at and try to determine what effect that variant might have on that person. This is the majority of the time the work done within the laboratory teams, through the clinical scientists, who have expertise in understanding the impact of variants within a gene, and they work together with other clinical representatives, like the clinician looking after the patient, to understand that patient's disease in as much detail as they can, to try to pull all of the information together and determine whether that variant is making a difference or not.   They would look at a lot of different pieces of information to try to work out, could this be the reason behind that person's genetic disorder? And that might be things like have we seen it before, can we predict the effect of that variant on the gene? And we have to understand how variants within that gene cause a condition to be able to match up against the variant that's seen, as to whether that would make sense for that individual. So, it's a lengthy process but an important one, to make sure that we've got the most accurate information about that variant, and the understanding about that in that person's health and development.  Naimah: So then, what would be a variant of uncertain significance?  Helen: So, the output of that clinical scientist's work looking at whether a variant is significant or not comes out into five categories, but three main groupings. What we're looking for obviously through doing genetic testing is to try to find a diagnosis for somebody, and a diagnosis would be a place where we are confident that that variant impacts on that gene and leads to the condition that that person is presenting with. So, that would be a diagnosis on one end of the spectrum of what we might find.   On the very other end of the spectrum are variants that don't make an effect on the gene, that would be benign. We would call those harmless variants, things that don't change the gene and wouldn't be expected to be associated with a condition.   And then, in life there's always a grey area, and the part in the middle, between being confident about a diagnosis on one end or being confident that that variant really doesn't impact the gene and is harmless. We have variants that we find that we do not yet understand, and that's basically because our knowledge as of when the variant is looked at is good, but it's not perfect. There could be more to learn about particular variants or particular conditions, but at the moment we just don't have enough information to be sure one way or the other. And that's really important, we've got to get it right, so we do have this grey area in the middle, which are the variants, differences in the gene, where the significance of them on that person is uncertain.  Naimah: How often do we find these variants of uncertain significance when we're trying to genetically diagnose patients?   Helen: They are relatively common for us to encounter, and that's for a number of reasons, I would say. I think that we know a lot about our genes, and our knowledge has come on leaps and bounds, and it's still improving at a rapid rate, but we don't know everything yet, so there will be areas where we haven't met a particular variant before, or we can't predict how it might affect that gene, or there's some uncertainty about it because we don't have full knowledge yet. So, it does happen relatively commonly, and it probably happens more commonly the more genes or the more information we're looking at. So a test looking across someone's genome, like whole genome sequencing, we're more likely to come across these things than if we're doing a very targeted test looking at one specific gene that we understand very well, for example.  Naimah: And how can knowing the significance of a gene variant be impactful for clinicians and the patient?  Helen: This is really important, knowing the significance of a variant is key. It's fundamental to genetic testing, because we are trying to make a confident diagnosis for somebody, and we have to get that right, because if we make a diagnosis in somebody there are lots of knock-on implications of how that information is used to inform the healthcare of the individual who has the condition, or maybe even to inform their family members, who could be at risk of the same condition. Obviously, we share our genetic information amongst our families, and so a genetic test might be used for a family member as a result of a diagnosis in one individual within their family.   And of course, in some situations, that might lead them into either needing screening for a particular condition that could happen, or being removed from screening if they don't have the genetic cause within their family. Equally, people might make choices surrounding whether to extend a family or reproductive choices around the knowledge of a genetic condition within a family. So you can see, the implications are huge. It's really important this is correct.   Naimah: And finally, I just wanted to ask, can we reclassify variants of uncertain significance?  Helen: Yes, there's real need to do this because people are wanting genetic diagnosis answers for understanding, and for all of the implications we just mentioned about why are diagnoses important. So yes, we can reclassify variants of uncertain significance, and that can happen in different ways. It's not always possible straight away, unfortunately. So, what we often need is time, and that is time to understand that variant a bit better, and that might be through seeing it again in other people, maybe who have the same pattern of health problems or same picture in terms of their rare disease, and we start to understand, okay, that might actually add up to suggest that that variant is affecting the way that gene is working. Or equally, we might see it in other people who don't have the same rare disorder, so we're starting to see, well actually, maybe it's harmless and it's just part of the natural genetic differences we all have.  The other way that we can understand variants of uncertain significance better would be through research, so for example researchers looking at designing studies to try to see if they can make a model, for example, with an animal who might have the same type of variant, and see if that causes an effect on their health, so learning specifically about that variant through research could also help. And there are things that clinicians also actively try to do, and this is why we work together with the clinical scientists is to understand, are there other people within the family with the same rare condition, and would it help to test them to see if they also share the same rare variant. And sometimes that can help, not always. So yes, we really want to try to reclassify variants of uncertain significance, and as far as possible, we will, but sometimes they do just need that time for us to build that bigger picture.  Naimah: That was Helen Brittain explaining variants of uncertain significant.

What drives Anna to work in climate action and sustainability within the wine industry? What does it mean to be voted as “the most intriguing environmentalist”? How did the global pandemic contribute to the worst moment in Anna's wine career? What was the impact of COVID-19 on consumer investment in sustainability and climate action? What was it like to put together the first climate and wine symposium? Is wine production bad for the environment? What does it mean for the wine industry to be a leader in soil-to-bottle sustainability? What are the biggest misconceptions about sustainability? Why did Anna create the six pillars of sustainable winegrowing leadership? How can you distinguish between sustainability, organic, and biodynamic practices? Why are there so many different organic certifications in the US? How can vineyards optimize irrigation systems and water use? What does it take to start dry farming? How can energy efficiency potentially produce cost savings for vineyards? What do wineries need to think about when it comes to waste management and supply chain emissions? Is it irresponsible for wineries to continue to use extremely heavy-weight bottles?   Key Takeaways Anna provides an excellent global view of wine's impact on the environment rather than just focusing narrowly or organic winemaking or sustainability. She gave us a clear definition on the differences between sustainable and organic winemaking. I think most people might assume that wine made organically is also farmed sustainably, but that's not always the case. She also presents clear and compelling facts such as that 40-50% of the emissions from a winery operation come from packaging and distribution alone.   Join me on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube Live Join the live-stream video of this conversation on Wed at 7 pm ET on Instagram Live Video, Facebook Live Video or YouTube Live Video.
