Podcasts about Buffer

In this episode, Jason breaks down a powerful concept inside the TACT Production System: using buffers in pace with the Remaining Buffer Ratio. Buffers are not contingency. They are intentional protection for specific phases of work and when used correctly, they eliminate rushing, pushing, and panic. The key is not whether you use buffers. The key is how responsibly you use them. Jason explains how the Remaining Buffer Ratio helps teams decide when to consume buffer and when to recover time another way  replacing traditional CPM tools like float reports, S-curves, and earned value metrics with something practical, visual, and flow-based. What you'll learn in this episode: The difference between schedule contingency and phase buffers. What the Remaining Buffer Ratio is and how to calculate it. Why buffers must be used in pace not all at once. How this KPI replaces slippage reports and float tracking. How to make buffer usage responsible and transparent. Are you managing buffers with intention… or reacting when it's too late?

It's Thursday, February 19th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark British preacher challenges buffer zones around abortion mills A preacher in Britain is challenging the country's abortion buffer zones which effectively censor the Bible. Officials arrested, charged, and convicted Stephen Green for holding a sign with a Bible verse near an abortion mill in 2023. The verse was Psalm 139:13 which says, “For You formed my inward parts; You knitted me together in my mother's womb.” Green stated, “As a Christian, I should be able to preach freely all over the land. Psalm 139 is about how we all belong to God from conception. Buffer zones and this conviction [are] a direct attack on the Bible and free speech.” Elon Musk endorsed new conservative political party in England Billionaire Elon Musk endorsed a new conservative political party in Britain last week. On Friday, Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe launched the Restore Britain Party. Musk shared the launch video on X which has received nearly 40 million views.  The party is devoted to ending mass immigration and the creeping Islamification of Britain. Rupert Lowe also stated the party will openly recognize the country's Christian heritage.  Listen. LOWE: “Restore Britain will openly recognize the Christian heritage that shaped this country's moral and civic foundation. (applause) Duty, restraint, forgiveness and, most importantly, fairness. These values created a high trust society. “Restore Britain will end the creeping Islamification of Britain. (applause)  Unfettered immigration from Islamic countries will end. (applause) Britain is a Christian country, and under Restore Britain government, it will remain a Christian country.” (applause) Church of England votes against blessing homosexual couples Last week, the Church of England  voted against proposals to allow blessing services for homosexual couples. The General Synod did not shut the door on the issue though, voting to investigate it in the future.  The move keeps the church from performing marriage services and blessing services for people living in unnatural relations. However, the Church of England's rules already allow blessing prayers within regular Sunday services for such couples.  Proverbs 25:26 says, “Like a muddied spring or a polluted fountain is a righteous man who gives way before the wicked.” Franklin Graham preached in world's southernmost city Evangelist Franklin Graham  preached in Ushuaia, Argentina. It's known as the southernmost city in the world. Listen. GRAHAM: “What makes Ushuaia so special are the people. We love the people. If you can't remember anything else tonight, remember this: God loves you. God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to take our sins. We deserve death. We're guilty of sin. “Bartimaeus had no hope. There are many of you here tonight. You have no hope. Now, Bartimaeus cried at the right time. Jesus was passing by. The Bible says that ‘God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but he should have everlasting life.' “Will you invite Christ into your heart? Will you trust Him? Come. Come to Jesus.” Hundreds of people turned to Christ through the evangelistic outreach event. Graham wrote on X, “We give God the glory for each one who responded to the invitation to repent of their sins and put their trust in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.” Eighty-two percent of South Americans identify as Roman Catholic, but evangelicalism has been growing in recent decades.    Graham also plans to visit Peru next month. 21 states challenge mail-order abortion kill pills In the United States, 21 states and 60 members of Congress are challenging mail-order abortion drugs. Louisiana initiated the case, challenging a Biden-era rule from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The rule removed the in-person dispensing requirement for the abortion drug mifepristone.  Erik Baptist with Alliance Defending Freedom stated, “The Biden FDA's unlawful authorization of mail-order abortion drugs was meant to be a loophole around states that choose to protect life.” 41-year-old mother Olympic bobsledder wins gold (audio Olympic theme song) American Olympic bobsledder Elana Meyers Taylor  won her first gold medal on Monday. The 41-year-old mother triumphed in the women's monobob event at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy.  She is now the oldest gold medalist in an individual Olympic event. After the victory, she said this on Instagram: “The moment we prayed for. Glory to God.” Norway has won the most gold medals Nearly 2,900 athletes from over 90 countries are competing in the 2026 Winter Olympics.  So far, Norway has won the most gold medals and the most medals overall. In the medal count, Norway is followed by Italy and the U.S. A podium finish can mean big prize money for athletes. A gold medalist from the U.S. can win $38,000. Athletes from Singapore can make the most for winning an individual event at $792,000.   Christian missionaries sharing Christ & Bibles in Olympic crowds And finally, Evangelicals are sharing the Gospel at the Winter Olympic Games this year. Hundreds of Southern Baptists alongside International Mission Board missionaries are joining the crowds to share Christ and distribute Bibles. Karen Herfurth is in Italy with a group from Mt. Zion Baptist Church in Huntsville, Alabama. She said, “This is a chance for Southern Baptists to reach more people and impact more lives! We may never know the difference this makes until we are in Heaven.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, February 19th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Maximize Your Reach: The Power of Repurposing ContentIn this episode, Scott Carson breaks down the "Rinse and Repeat" method, a marketing strategy used by global giants like McDonald's to stay top-of-mind with their audience. Many investors make the mistake of "one and done" marketing—posting a video or sending a letter once and giving up when they don't see immediate results. Scott argues that to truly scale a real estate or note investing business, you must embrace remarketing your content, pitch decks, and case studies to ensure you are seen by more than just the small percentage of followers reached by initial algorithms. By leveraging modern AI tools and strategic scheduling, you can turn a single piece of high-quality content into a continuous lead-generation machine.Key Topics Covered:The McDonald's Marketing Model: Scott explains how major brands run the same 30-second ad thousands of times a week to build brand recognition, contrasting this with the typical investor's "one and done" approach.The 15-Minute Pitch Deck: Learn why a concise, fifteen-minute pitch deck is your most powerful tool for raising capital and how to effectively "chum the water" to attract private investors.AI-Enhanced Repurposing: Discover how to use tools like Gemini to transform one video transcript into multiple SEO-rich blogs, descriptions, and social media posts, making AI think you have more content than you actually do.Strategic Scheduling and Re-streaming: Scott shares his personal workflow for using tools like Restream and Buffer to broadcast live content multiple times and rotate infographics daily to maintain a consistent presence.Leveraging YouTube Analytics: Insights into using your channel's "Audience" data to determine the optimal times for uploading and live-streaming to maximize engagement and algorithm favor.Success in raising capital and closing deals isn't just about creating content; it's about making sure that content is seen repeatedly by your target audience. Most sales are made after the fifth contact, yet most investors stop after the first. By applying the rinse and repeat method—tweaking titles, updating thumbnails, and rescheduling your best assets—you can build the credibility and recognition needed to dominate your local market. As Scott says, don't let your hard work fall on deaf ears; take action, use the tools available, and see you at the top.Watch the Original Video of this Episode HERE!Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!Love the show?

Jerry opens the show looking at the shifting landscape of Canadian retail with businesses struggling to stay afloat. Mike Kakuk joins Jerry to discuss Donald Trump’s threat to block the opening of the new Windsor–Detroit bridge. Branding expert Tony Chapman weighs in on the broader question: what’s really going on with Canadian retail? If you’re on vacation and something goes wrong getting home, how much buffer time do you give yourself before you return to work?

In this episode of Retire With Style, Alex and Wade discuss the nuances of the 4% rule and why it may be either too high or too low depending on factors such as inflation, portfolio diversification, market conditions, and individual circumstances. They explore how withdrawal rates work in practice, including the role of variable spending strategies and buffer assets in managing risk and improving retirement outcomes. The conversation emphasizes that determining an appropriate withdrawal rate requires a tailored approach rather than reliance on a single rule of thumb.   Takeaways The 4% rule may not be universally applicable due to varying international market conditions. Inflation significantly impacts withdrawal rates, especially in countries with hyperinflation. A longer retirement horizon may allow for higher withdrawal rates than the 4% rule suggests. Portfolio diversification can enhance returns and reduce volatility, potentially supporting higher withdrawal rates. Variable spending strategies can provide flexibility and adaptability in retirement income planning. Buffer assets can protect against market downturns and provide liquidity during retirement. Optimal withdrawal rates may exceed the 4% rule under certain conditions, allowing for a more comfortable lifestyle. Understanding the dynamics of withdrawal rates is crucial for effective retirement planning. The psychological aspect of spending and investing plays a significant role in retirement success. Tailoring withdrawal strategies to individual circumstances can lead to better financial outcomes.

De Dutch Grand Prix in Zandvoort rijdt dit jaar de laatste Formule 1-race en daarmee komt er een einde aan een bijzondere reeks op de kalender. De organisatie besloot om te stoppen na de editie van 2026, omdat de financiële risico's te groot werden. Nu komt er echter aan het licht dat er een groot deel van de financiële buffer, twintig miljoen euro, is uitgekeerd aan de aandeelhouders, waardoor de vraag rijst waarom men dan zo vroeg afscheid neemt.

Good morning, afternoon, and evening, everybody! Scott Carson here, still shaking off the flu but fired up to drop some serious knowledge. Remember those 4,200 distressed notes we talked about last week? Well, a fresh list of 3,000 more notes just landed on my desk – assets that didn't get bids the first time around! This isn't just about the deals (though there are plenty of cherry-pickable non-performing notes, REOs, and subject-to opportunities); it's about the marketing mindset you need to grab them!Too many of you are "Powder Puffs" when it comes to consistent marketing, thinking one post is enough. That's like watching a commercial once and buying the product forever – it doesn't work! It's time to learn how to rinse, repeat, and repost your way to being AI-searchable and attracting the deals and capital you deserve.Here's how to stop being a ghost and start being seen in 2026:The Second Chance Note Bonanza: Dive into the details of the remaining 3,000 distressed notes – including 355 severely non-performing assets and 119 REOs. Learn why these overlooked deals are ripe for the picking and how to make a strategic offer.The Consistency Commandment: Discover why daily, consistent posting is non-negotiable for real estate investors. Your content is only visible for a few hours; if you're not reposting, you're "nonexistent."Leverage Reposting Tools (Like Buffer.com): I'll show you how simple, often free, tools like Buffer.com allow you to schedule, clone, and endlessly repost your content across LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram, maximizing your visibility with minimal effort.Case Studies: Brian Dills' LinkedIn Playbook: See how fellow investor Brian Dills uses just 7 simple images, repurposed and reposted daily, to attract capital and deals – a perfect example of effective, consistent marketing.Be AI-Searchable: Outsmart the Algorithms: Learn why AI is changing how people find information and how being AI-searchable (via consistent, repurposed content on platforms like LinkedIn) is crucial for competing with the "Bigger Pockets and Zillows" of the world.Don't let "lazy assets" (yours, not the notes!) keep you from profiting in 2026. This is your chance to turn consistent marketing into consistent deal flow and capital. Remember, 80% of sales happen after the fifth contact. So, go out there, grab those deals, and for the love of God, keep posting!Watch the Original VIDEO HERE!Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!Love the show?

Good morning, afternoon, and good evening, investors! Scott Carson here, and if this episode hits a little hard, it's coming from a place of tough love! For too long, I've seen too many of you out there with "limited funds" (a thousand bucks, $18,000, or even zero!) trying to squeeze a square peg into a round hole, hoping a partial note deal will magically appear. Newsflash: a thousand bucks won't even buy you a decent partial, and all that effort for a "crappy deal" will eat your profits faster than a Texas heatwave!It's time for a come-to-Jesus meeting with that six-to-eight inches between your ears. That "mind block" is your biggest hurdle to success in real estate. If you want to own something, grow wealth, and actually invest, you need to raise private capital. And in 2026, it's not a suggestion; it's a non-negotiable. Stop waiting, stop wishing, and start doing.Here's your 5-pronged approach to getting off your lazy ass and raising capital in 2026:Social Media: Post Like Your Business Depends On It (Because It Does!): Pull your head out of your ass, even if you "hate Facebook." Post daily about deals, case studies, or properties you're evaluating across LinkedIn (easy connections!) and Facebook groups. Use tools like Buffer or Hootsuite if you're a "Powder Puff" too tired after work.Email Your Database (Yes, YOU Have One!): Whether it's 50 or 5,000, your email list is golden. Send regular emails (not just once a month!) about new deals, market insights, or just to say "hey." Remember, 80% of sales are made after the fifth contact – so keep hitting that send button!In-Person Networking: Ditch the Secret Agent Vibe: Get off your couch and hit your local Real Estate Investor Associations (REIAs) or BNI groups. You can't be a "secret agent" and expect to raise capital. Show up, talk to people, and build those connections.Target Self-Directed IRA Investors (They're Everywhere!): Learn to find SDIRA investors by searching county records for "Equity Trust" or other SDIRA companies. Send them postcards, letters, and multiple follow-ups. They have the money, you have the opportunities.Rinse and Repeat (Daily, Not Just When You Feel Like It): The most successful investors do these things again and again and again. Marketing for deals and money is a daily grind, not a weekly wish. If Warren Buffett markets to raise capital, so should you!Stop making excuses. If you hate your job, you owe it to yourself to spend 30 minutes to an hour daily on these activities. It's a small investment of time for a massive payoff. Otherwise, you'll get the same "lazy ass" results as last year. Your family, your goals, your "why" deserve more. So go out, take some action, and let's build you a river of private capital in 2026!Watch the Original VIDEO HERE!Book a Call With Scott HERE!Sign up for the next FREE One-Day Note Class HERE!Sign up for the WCN Membership HERE!Sign up for the next Note Buying For Dummies Workshop HERE!Love the show?

In this episode of the Inside EMS podcast, Chris and Kelly are joined by paramedic student April McKenzie — aka “April Anonymous” — for a deep dive into the buffer system and CO2 mapping. April's in the thick of paramedic school and like every good learner, she's asking “why?” — so the guys break down the physiology behind capnography, acid-base balance and the lungs-vs.-kidneys showdown that keeps our patients alive. Plus, they throw in old-school war stories, rant about naloxone misuse and admit that bicarb is no longer the go-to cardiac arrest drug. If you've ever tried to explain respiratory vs. metabolic acidosis in under 10 minutes, this episode is your cheat sheet. April will be back throughout the year with more student questions, so buckle up for the ongoing EMS education you didn't know you needed. Quotable takeaways “Just because you see somebody with signs and symptoms and the protocol says, do this; that's OK, but that just makes you a protocol paramedic.” “My friend Romy Duckworth calls [capnography] the MVP of vital signs, and that's a good way to remember it — MVP: Metabolism, Ventilation and Profusion. And it will tell you derangement about all three of those things very well once you're proficient at interpreting the waveforms.” “Basically, the buffer system is the body's way of keeping the pH stable. So, if we're blowing out, if we're having problems with respiratory acidosis — and let's talk about CDKA, where they're trying to blow off — it's the respiratory systems' way of making sure that we have homeostasis.” Enjoying Inside EMS?

At the beginning of the year, cartoonists Dave Kellett and Brad Guigar made their predictions for the coming year — and set goals for themselves. Now, as the year comes to a close, it's the brutally honest follow-up episode where they grade themselves — and sometimes discover that Past-Brad and Past-Dave were wildly optimistic. Or deluded. Or both.2025 PREDICTIONSDAVE: Business planning for cartoonists is gonna be filled with a lot of anxiety. Trump will be a chaos agent.BRAD: the “winners” of 2025 will be the cartoonists and businesses that help people *deal* with anxiety.DAVE: Bluesky will be at 50M users by the end of the year (we were at 23M when he made that prediction)BRAD: Substack: will gain in prominence. They're going to have a user base in the same league as Patreon, Kickstarter, or Twitter.DAVE: “We will all be playing reactionary, whack-a-mole with our life decisions in the first two years of the Trump administration.”BRAD: AI will start to gain a foothold among writers and artists, as an assistant to their writing or their process or their brainstorming. Dave concurred.

THE AUTONOMOUS MIDDLE CLASS AS THE REPUBLIC'S FOUNDATION Colleague Victor Davis Hanson. Victor Davis Hanson argues that a stable republic relies on an autonomous middle class, which serves as a buffer between the wealthy and the dependent poor. Drawing on classical history, he warns that modern policies are "hollowing out" this class, creating a peasantry dependent on the state for survival, illustrated by government campaigns depicting adults in a state of perpetual adolescence and reliance. He contends that high taxes and regulations in places like California are driving this productive class away, leaving behind a stratified society of the very rich and the subsidized poor. NUMBER 1

In part 2 of our Building Better Developers conversation with Mark Struczewski (Mister Productivity), we shift from foundational habits to the modern reality of our digital world. With smartphones, notifications, social media, and AI competing for every second of our attention, managing digital distractions has become one of the most important productivity skills of our time. Mark pulls back the curtain on how our devices keep us hooked—and offers practical, simple steps to regain control of our attention before the noise takes over. About Mark Struczewski Today, we're joined by Mark Struczewski—pronounced STRU-CHESS-KEY—better known as Mister Productivity. This Houston-based coach and host of the Mister Productivity™ Podcast, with over 1,340 episodes and thousands of downloads, equips busy professionals to crush overwhelm and reclaim focus. Drawing on his corporate grit and daily running discipline, Mark shares his proven 'Distraction Detox' framework to turn digital chaos into high-impact action. Please welcome Mark! Twitter/X, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, SnapChat Turning Off the Noise: First Steps in Managing Digital Distractions Mark starts with a surprisingly bold recommendation: turn off vibration mode—permanently. Even if your phone is "muted," vibration keeps your brain on high alert. Removing it creates true silence and removes the physical stimulus that pulls you out of focus. He also stresses the importance of auditing every app notification you have. Most people tap "Allow" without thinking, and developers take full advantage of that. Mark insists you go through each app and ask: Does this notification serve me? Or is it another distraction stealing my focus? In most cases, you'll turn off 90% of them. A Notification Is a Demand for Your Attention: If your phone decides what you do next, you're not in control—your apps are. Advanced Techniques for Managing Digital Distractions Beyond simple notification hygiene, we explore more powerful ways to reinforce boundaries. 1. Use Focus Modes Intentionally Newer smartphones allow you to block almost everything while allowing a short list of apps or people through. It turns your phone into a calmer, quieter version of itself—ideal for deep work. 2. Block Websites at the Router Level Michael shares how he blocks entire sites like Facebook or news apps from his entire home network. This prevents drifting into distraction, no matter which device he picks up. 3. Silence Individual Contacts If someone sends constant memes or random texts, you can mute their message sounds without blocking them. Messages still arrive, but they don't interrupt your work. These tools aren't "nanny features"—they're modern essentials for managing digital distractions in a tech-saturated world. Social Media Boundaries: Build the Muscle, Not the Habit One area where many people struggle is social media consumption. Mark shares that he only spends 3–4 intentional minutes on platforms like X or Instagram before moving on. How? He uses scheduling tools—Meta Business Suite, Buffer, TikTok Studio—to create content in batches and avoid the endless scroll. His rule is simple: Use social media as a tool, Not as a default habit. And if he's with people in person? The phone goes away—no exceptions. If someone picks up their phone mid-conversation, he stops talking or walks away. For Mark, presence is respect. True Focus Requires Presence: Being fully present strengthens your attention—even when you're not working. The AI Overload Problem We also explore a growing concern: the overuse of AI tools as substitutes for real thinking. Mark notes that people are starting to treat AI chatbots like best friends, therapists, or decision-makers. The risks include: Reduced mental engagement Outsourcing problem-solving Losing the ability to think deeply Feeling "validated" by an algorithm programmed to agree with you Studies show that too much AI reliance leads to dramatically lower cognitive activity, essentially putting the brain into a passive state. Managing digital distractions now includes managing AI—and knowing when to step away. Why One-on-One Coaching Works Best Mark explains that when it comes to overcoming distraction and productivity issues, individual coaching surpasses group settings. In groups, people hold back. They don't want coworkers or managers hearing their real struggles—especially when those struggles involve digital habits. One-on-one conversations create a safe space for honesty, clarity, and real change. He even offers a free Productivity Scorecard on his website to help people understand their strengths and weaknesses. But he emphasizes: awareness is only the first step. Improvement requires action. Ending the Day Right: A Shutdown Routine for Fewer Distractions Tomorrow Mark ends with one of his most powerful recommendations: a shutdown routine. This routine creates an intentional gap between screens and sleep—a crucial part of managing digital distractions at night. His routine includes: Turning off screens at a set time Listening to calming music Journaling a few final thoughts Reading a book Going to sleep with a quiet, settled mind A rested brain resists distraction better, thinks more clearly, and starts the next day stronger. Better Sleep = Better Focus: Managing digital distractions starts with how you unplug at night. Managing digital distractions isn't about rejecting technology—it's about using it on your terms. With the right boundaries, tools, and habits, you can reclaim your focus, protect your time, and build a healthier relationship with the digital world around you.

Ukraine as Buffer State — Mary Kissel — Kissel articulates core U.S. strategic interests in Ukraine beyond ideological commitments: Ukraine's role as a critical geographic buffer against Russian expansion into Western Europeand its status as a major agricultural producer essential for global food security and economic stability. Kissel defends U.S. diplomatic engagement with Syrian leader Al-Sharaa, arguing that countering Russian regional influence in Syriajustifies negotiating with new Damascus authorities. Kissel expresses skepticism regarding whether Al-Sharaa will fulfill counter-terrorism commitments following receipt of U.S. sanctions relief, highlighting the perennial tension between incentivizing behavioral change and verification of compliance. 1854 ODESSA

What Can You Actually Automate on LinkedIn (Without Getting Restricted)?This has been a huge topic lately, and for good reason.Many professionals want to save time, but they're unknowingly using tools that violate LinkedIn's user agreement.So let's clear this up once and for all.If you've ever wondered whether you can automate your LinkedIn activity, the short answer is: you really can't.The longer answer is that there are limited, compliant ways to simplify certain parts of your process.Here's what's off the table:❌ Automating connection requests❌ Automating messages❌ Automating likes, comments, or engagement❌ Scraping or exporting data from profilesThese are all major red flags for LinkedIn and can lead to account restrictions or even permanent bans.What is acceptable?✅ Scheduling your content, either directly on LinkedIn (which now allows up to 90 days in advance)✅ Using posting tools only for publishing content, not for engagement or outreachTools like Buffer, Hootsuite, or Canva can be used to pre-schedule posts across multiple platforms, but understand that connecting them to LinkedIn still carries some risk.If LinkedIn is your primary platform, it's always safest to use LinkedIn's own scheduling feature.The bottom line: LinkedIn rewards genuine activity, real conversations, authentic content, and consistent posting.Automating human connection defeats the purpose of being on the platform.Don't forget to download our FREE LinkedIn High-Impact Post Templates here: https://www.thetimetogrow.com/ecsposttemplates
