Mindset plays an important role in healing and long-term health. It challenges the idea that medications or treatments alone fix the body, pointing instead to how the body is built to heal itself when properly supported. Using examples like heartburn and stress-related gut issues, it shows how working with the body's natural design often leads to better results than just managing symptoms.Getting back to basics, supporting the body to function as it was made to, can restore balance and improve overall health. By reducing stress and correcting underlying imbalances, the body's own systems often have the ability to heal without relying on long-term medication.Highlights of the Podcast00:04 - The Healing Mindset01:58 - Heartburn and Misdiagnosis03:40 - The Role of Stress in Digestion05:02 - Why Acid Matters06:20 - The Danger of Disrupting Physiology07:52 - Treating Root Causes: Chemistry + Mindset09:33 - Proof Through Practice10:47 - Drugs vs. True Healing12:21 - Returning to Biological Design13:14 - Moving Forward and Website Changes
Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off the rest of your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed their travels in Florida, What the Oilers need to do to drag the Panthers back home, a tragic tale of Cowboy Chris and his cherished cowboy hat, and so much more.The guys started the Monday episode of Real Life mourning the loss of Chalmers cowboy hat. The hat has now paved its own path in life and perhaps will find its way to a new oilers fan who will give it a lovely new home. RIP. Moving along, the boys discussed their 5 day adventure in Florida. We're still unsure if they did more swimming in the pool or actual work. However, The trip was great and the Oilers managed to come through in game 4 and even up the series 2-2.Back in Edmonton for game 5 and we watched a result that we were definitely not looking for. If there's one thing we have learned from watching the Oilers over the past 2 cup runs is that they love a dramatic finish, which is exactly why the boys are confident in the teams ability to drag the panthers back to our city for game 7.Finally the boys wrapped up the podcast with some very tough hypotheticals and an inspiring pep talk from Chalmers. it's time to DIG IN.
There's a long-running philosophical argument about the conceivability of otherwise-normal people who are not conscious, aka “philosophical zombies”. This has spawned a shorter-running (only fifteen years!) rationalist sub-argument on the topic. The last time I checked its status was this post, which says: 1. Both Yudkowsky and Chalmers agree that humans possess “qualia”. 2. Chalmers argues that a superintelligent being which somewhow knew the positions of all particles in a large region of the Universe would need to be told as an additional fact that any humans (or other minds possessing qualia) in this region of space possess qualia – it could not deduce this from mere perfect physical knowledge of their constituent particles. Therefore, qualia are in some sense extra-physical. 3. Yudkowsky argues that such a being would notice that humans discuss at length the fact that they possess qualia, and their internal narratives also represent this fact. It is extraordinarily improbable that beings would behave in this manner if they did not actually possess qualia. Therefore an omniscient being would conclude that it is extremely likely that humans possess qualia. Therefore, qualia are not extra-physical. I want to re-open this (sorry!) by disagreeing with the bolded sentence. I think beings would talk about qualia - the “mysterious redness of red” and all that - even if we start by assuming they don't have it. I realize this is a surprising claim, but that's why it's interesting enough to re-open the argument over1. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/p-zombies-would-report-qualia
This takes a closer look at the difference between the people working in healthcare and the system they work within. It highlights the challenges many doctors and nurses face, not because they don't care, but because the larger medical system can sometimes stand in the way of real healing.It also explores how outdated guidelines, pharmaceutical influence, and government agencies shape the care people receive. There's a push to consider more natural, functional approaches to health and to think critically about where things could improve.Highlights of the Podcast00:04 – Respect for Medical Doctors01:30 – Sacrifices in the Profession03:07 – Defining the "Medical System"04:36 – Misinformation and COVID06:05 – The System is Failing Us07:27 – Profit Over Health09:02 – Where We Stand Today10:23 – Importance of Language & Communication11:53 – Fixing the Root Problem13:37 – Real-World Successes15:08 – Laying the Groundwork for Project Reforge16:12 – Censorship & Platform Recommendations

Forskare: Det viktigaste är inte infrastruktur eller fordonen utan förarbeteende. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Programmet sändes första gången 20250506.– Vad vi gjorde som aldrig gjorts förut är att vi gick ut på staden och fiskade efter olyckor, säger Marco Dozza som är professor i aktiv säkerhet och trafikantbeteende vid Chalmers tekniska högskola i Göteborg.Chalmersforskarna som har studerat detta med olyckor med elsparkcyklar har gjort det på ett nytt sätt. För att fiska efter elsparkcykelolyckor så utrustades ett antal elsparkcyklar med sensorer och kameror.– Sen väntade vi på att någon hyrde och åkte runt och om man väntar tillräckligt länge så kommer en kritisk händelse eller olycka att inträffa. Vi utrustade 17 elsparkcyklar och dokumenterade nästan 7 000 resor, säger Marco Dozza.Forskarna noterade 19 olyckor och 42 kritiska händelser där det var nära ögat, och med hjälp av kamerorna och information från sensorerna om bland annat hastighet och om hur fordonen manövrerade så kunde dom studera vad som hände precis innan och som kunde ligga bakom olyckan.Marco Dozza och kollegan som han gjort studien tillsammans med bedömer att var femte av dom säkerhetskritiska händelserna var avsiktlig, och i dom annorlunda normer för elsparkcykelkörning som han tror ligger bakom så finns också med att det här var just hyrda elsparkcyklar, då kan folk bry sig mindre om ifall fordonen blir skadade menar han. Men också i många av dom oavsiktliga olyckorna så är det vårdslös körning inblandad, eller åtminstone mindre trafiksäkert beteende, och då kan det ofta bero på dålig förståelse för och erfarenhet av det speciella med just elsparkcykeln som fordon enligt Marco Dozza.Reporter: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se
Central Station - Stories from Outback Australian Cattle Stations
This episode was recorded as part of a Centralian Land Management Association project - which they have kindly shared with our listeners The pioneering legacy of Charles and Cora Chalmers is well documented in the history books—but the story of the Chalmers family didn’t end there. In this episode, we hear from their grandson, Cameron Chalmers, who continues that legacy in his own remarkable way. Born and raised on the very land his grandfather once settled, Cameron enjoyed a childhood rich with freedom and adventure. Following in his family's footsteps, he embraced the pastoral life, eventually purchasing a station of his own with his wife on the edge of the Simpson Desert. Driven by a restless spirit, Cameron later ventured interstate to explore what the wider country had to offer. But, like many who feel the pull of home, he eventually found his way back to where it all began. To begin our conversation, I asked Cameron to share a bit about what he was like as a child. Red Centre Reflections is a Centralian Land Management Association project, supported by FRRR through funding from the Australian Government’s Future Drought Fund.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Monday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and is ready to help you kick off the rest of your workweek. On today's podcast, the guys discussed the Oilers' return to the Stanley Cup Final, Ryder's career in radio, their upcoming trip to Florida, and more.The guys kicked off the Monday episode of the Real Life podcast by welcoming Ryder from Play 107 to the show to help everyone get set for the Stanley Cup Final. Starting with a quick run through of Ryder's history in the city, and how it's been a remarkable journey for him to establish himself as a morning show host. Getting back to the Oilers, the guys started with a picture Wanye found of Tyler from Game 4 against the Stars, and how Yaremchuk lept skyward after Corey Perry scored to give the Oilers a 2-1 lead. They also touched on Liam's donair review after catching on Game 4, and how it was on one of the worst donairs he's ever had, but still ranks it as one of his favourites given the moment. Next up, we walked through what everyone is expecting from the Stanley Cup Final and how everyone is feeling bullish about the SCF rematch, despite the boys being up against a strong Florida Panthers opponent. That led Jay to recap his trip to London, where Oilers signs were everywhere, prompting him to bet on the Oilers' moneyline based on the signs the Universe was providing him. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a conversation about everyone's game day routine. Much like you've heard from Chalmers over the years, Ryder confessed that coaching his daughter's softball team is really getting in the way of his love for Oilers playoff hockey. For those fans with children, it's a battle everyone knows well, but it's definitely a common issue during the playoffs. (Apologies for audio issues with Bagged Milk's microphone at certain parts of the episode!)

Help us make this podcast better for you! Our quick listener survey is your chance to shape the next season: https://bit.ly/madeforuspod---What happens when women aren't considered in car safety design? For decades, crash test dummies have been modeled on the average male, but studies now show that women are more likely to be injured or killed in certain types of crashes. As the data mounts, so does the urgency to fix the gender gap in car safety.This week, we're joined by Emily Thomas, PhD, Associate Director of Automotive Safety at Consumer Reports, and Astrid Linder, Professor of Traffic Safety at the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute, who developed the world's first crash test dummy representing an average woman. Together, we'll explore what it will take to design truly inclusive and safe cars.The conversation covers:Why women face higher injury risks in car crashesWhat's involved in designing a female crash test dummyHow the shift to driverless cars presents a chance to correct past biases---ResourcesAstrid Linder's researchUniversity of Virginia study U.S. Government Accountability Office recommendations---About Professor Astrid LinderAstrid Linder is Professor of Traffic Safety at Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute, VTI, and an Adjunct Professor of Injury Prevention at Chalmers University.

Concussions are more common in female sports than people often think, especially in activities like soccer, volleyball, and basketball. A lot of these injuries come from falls and the way the head moves during impact, not just from direct hits. That's why building neck strength is so important it helps reduce the risk by slowing down head movement when athletes fall or get knocked around.Another simple way to support brain health is by adding creatine. It's been shown to help the brain recover faster after a concussion and can be a helpful supplement for active kids and teens. Along with regular strength training and good chiropractic care to keep the body aligned, these small steps can go a long way in protecting young athletes.Highlights of the Podcast00:04 – Female athletes and concussions01:30 – The key solution: Neck strength04:23 – Why female athletes get concussions05:30 – Creatine for brain protection07:34 – How to take creatine (practical tips)09:06 – ACL injury risk and pelvic alignment09:45 – Final takeaway

Traditional treatments helped a little, but nothing really worked until he tried ketamine therapy.Matt and Dr. Chalmers have an honest conversation about what the treatment was like, how it helped, and why it might be a good option for others dealing with similar struggles. It's a down-to-earth look at a tough topic, and a reminder that there are new ways to find relief and get your life back.If you're curious about real solutions for PTSD or just want to hear a genuine story of healing, this episode is worth a watch.Highlights of the Podcast00:00 – Introduction and Matt's Background03:21 – PTSD in First Responders06:31 – What PTSD Looked Like in His Life09:43 – Hypervigilance Explained13:16 – Life Collapsing Despite Time Off16:36 – Diagnosis and Seeking Help20:11 – Ketamine Treatment: A Breakthrough23:31 – Big Changes: Anger, Sleep, Family Life26:11 – Real-Life Markers of Change30:01 – Comparison: Ketamine vs. SGB Shot34:31 – Broader Impact and the Charity Effort38:51 – Encouraging Others to Seek Help42:11 – Closing: Hope, Support, and Next Steps
Parenting isn't about being perfect it's about being present. Sometimes we get so busy trying to provide or chase goals that we miss the small, everyday moments that really matter. Whether it's a quick chat before bed or a weekend outing, those simple times leave a lasting impact on our kids.This message is a gentle reminder to be more intentional with our time. Our children don't need us to have it all figured out they just need us there. At the end of the day, it's the connection we build that helps them grow into strong, confident adults.Highlights of the Podcast00:04 - Learning from patients of all ages01:00 - The hardest part of parenting: becoming irrelevant02:02 - Cherishing everyday moments03:40 - Missed memories are painful05:53 - Unlike health, time with kids can't be regained07:02 - Seek wisdom from experienced parents08:26 - What truly destroys people: time lost with kids09:44 - Don't give advice—share experience11:10 - “You spell love: T-I-M-E”12:39 - Think about life after they're gone13:48 - The role of community and passing it forward

Can eating too much protein really make you gain fat? This breaks down some common confusion around how the body uses protein, especially when carbs are limited. It looks at what actually happens during gluconeogenesis and why turning protein into fat isn't as straightforward as it might sound.It also touches on how things like fruit juice in your protein shake can affect your progress more than the protein itself. If you're trying to figure out the best way to fuel your body without adding unnecessary fat, this offers a helpful, down-to-earth breakdown.Highlights of the Podcast00:00 – Protein vs. Sugar Misconception01:40 – How the Body Actually Uses Protein03:33 – Insulin vs. Glucagon Regulation05:15 – The Cori Cycle & Energy Efficiency07:00 – What Actually Makes You Fat10:24 – Keto Diet Use Cases11:24 – Critique of Medical Establishment12:15 – Closing Remarks
Peptides can be a helpful tool for supporting skin health, healing, and overall wellness. Some types boost the body's natural growth hormone, which can improve collagen production, help with recovery after injuries or surgery, and support healthy joints and tissues. They're often used for anti-aging and can be a good option for people dealing with everyday aches or slow healing.There are also peptides that help with tanning, like Melanotan II, which can reduce the risk of sunburn for people who don't get much sun. Copper peptides (GHK-Cu) are used for hair growth and general skin support. GLP-1s may help with weight loss and resetting the body's systems, but they need to be used carefully to avoid long-term issues. Used the right way, peptides can be a great addition to a wellness routine.Highlights of the Podcast00:00 - Peptides for Anti-Aging & Healing01:00 - Injury Recovery with Peptides01:43 - Pre/Post-Surgery Healing Support04:10 - Melanotan II for Skin Tanning08:44 - Copper Peptides (GHK-Cu)09:40 - GLP-1 Agonists and Weight Loss Risks
Nothing is better than a fresh episode of the Real Life podcast to recap the weekend and start your week. On the Monday episode of Real Life, the guys discussed the Oilers' need for a win in Game 4, playoff shenanigans in the city, and much more.The boys kicked off the Monday episode of Real Life with a random collection of topics around the Oilers' second round matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights. After losing Game 3 in the most painful fashion imaginable, the pressure is on Edmonton to turn things around or risk losing the advantage they built by winning the first two matchups. Even though this isn't a must-win game in the literal sense, it certainly feels like it in the spiritual sense. Changing gears, producer Eli jumped onto the podcast to tell the story about our intern Padon getting kicked out of the Moss Pit for allegedly sneaking alcohol in. The problem with their theory, of course, is that Padon doesn't drink. Not only does he not drink alcohol, but the guy was wearing shorts and didn't have a bag of any type that would allow him even to try. Pivoting once again, Chalmers wanted to talk about banana cream pies after he crushed one over the weekend from Duchess Bake Shop. That led to a discussion about baking in general, including everyone's love of fresh bread with butter. Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a Game 4 preview ahead of Monday's game against Vegas, and how there are a couple of line combo changes that have people raising an eyebrow. Talking line combos led to some betting talk for our friends at bet365, before wrapping up with the podcast with another run of random topics.

The hosts debate the merits of shortening the pre-polling period, with Hong Kong Jack lamenting the decline of traditional Saturday voting.(00:06:06) Betting Blunders & Historic Results Labor's remarkable journey from $15 outsiders to $1.07 unbackable favourites to form government is reviewed. The episode highlights key historical markers:Anthony Albanese: The first Prime Minister re-elected since 2004.A significant Labor victory, with Albanese leading the first government in Australian political history to increase its majority in a second term.(00:09:17) Seat Swings, Mea Culpas & The Greens' Tumble The hosts reflect on their pre-election predictions against the reality of significant swings to Labor (e.g., a 10% swing in Bennelong). Labor is projected to win around 90 seats.The Greens: A tough election, with leader Adam Bandt likely to lose his seat in Melbourne. Zoe Daniel (Teal) is also in a precarious position in Goldstein. The Greens may lose Ryan back to the Liberals and potentially face no representation in the House of Representatives.(00:13:38) A UK Perspective & Labor's Resurgence Hong Kong Jack shares insights from the UK, where observers noted Labor's landslide and the "leaderless, rudderless, pointless" state of the Coalition. This challenges the narrative that incumbents always lose, citing recent Canadian and Australian results.(00:16:27) Liberal Campaign Catastrophe: A "Don't Do This" Case Study A deep dive into the Liberal Party's "dreadful campaign," marked by:The ill-conceived work-from-home policy, poorly communicated by Senator Jane Hume and lacking consultation.A string of policy backflips and poorly planned announcements (e.g., fuel excise cut, Melbourne airport rail funding announced at a winery).Peter Dutton has accepted responsibility for the campaign's failures.(00:22:46) Trump's Take & The Muted MAGA Effect Donald Trump's reaction to the Australian election (congratulating "Albert" while feigning ignorance of Dutton) is discussed. The hosts agree that MAGA influence was minimal, with Albanese's message of "kindness is not weakness" resonating more strongly.(00:25:13) The Liberal Party's Existential Crossroads A critical analysis of the Liberal Party's future, having lost traditional heartland seats and failed to broaden its appeal beyond an aging demographic.The danger of vacating the political centre and the flawed strategy of chasing a new "working-class" constituency.Hong Kong Jack draws parallels to Labor's wilderness years (1977, 1996), emphasizing the need for honest self-reflection for any chance of recovery.Labor's structural advantages: benefiting from Green preferences and a more unified progressive base compared to a fragmented right-wing, further diluted by entities like Clive Palmer's party.(00:39:58) Senate Snapshot: Stability Prevails An overview of the projected Senate makeup across the states:NSW & VIC: Likely Labor 3, Liberals 2, Greens 1.QLD: Labor 2, Libs 2, Greens 1, with One Nation's Malcolm Roberts likely re-elected.TAS: Jacqui Lambie expected to return.ACT: Independent David Pocock secures his quota alongside a Labor senator.Overall, the Senate composition is unlikely to see dramatic changes. David Pocock is commended for his diligent work.(00:42:25) Who Will Lead the Liberals? A Party in Search of Direction Speculation on the future leadership of the Liberal Party, with few obvious candidates emerging from a depleted frontbench. Dan Tehan is mentioned as a possible moderate caretaker, though the path back to government looks long and arduous.(00:45:58) Albanese: The New "Labor God" & Chalmers' Contribution Anthony Albanese is lauded for his historic achievement, with Jim Chalmers highlighted as a key performer and media operator for Labor, despite Hong Kong Jack's gentle ribbing about his lengthy essays.(00:48:56) Canadian Politics Upended: Liberals' Shock Comeback A look at the Canadian election, where the Liberals achieved a stunning turnaround, with Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre facing a potential seat loss. Donald Trump's inflammatory rhetoric towards Canada is seen as a contributing factor to this shift.(00:52:12) Vatican Watch: Speculating on the Next Pope With Pope Francis's papacy in its later stages, the hosts discuss potential successors. Italian cardinals like Pietro Parolin are frontrunners, but names from Africa and the Philippines also surface. Hong Kong Jack references Morris West's The Shoes of the Fisherman for insights into papal conclaves.(00:55:52) Sir Tony Blair on Net Zero & The Reality of Fossil Fuels Former UK PM Sir Tony Blair's call for a rethink of Net Zero policies due to cost implications is examined. Global fossil fuel consumption continues to rise (gas +2.7%, coal +1%, oil +0.8%), underscoring the challenge of the energy transition.(01:00:24) Trump's First 100 Days (Again): Low Approval, Tariff Troubles & Papal Attire Donald Trump's second term hits the 100-day mark with historically low approval ratings (39%). The economic impact of his tariffs is starting to bite (LA port imports down one-third, US economy shrinking). Adding to the unusual, Trump has been pictured in papal robes on the White House website, even expressing a desire to be Pope.(01:05:49) UK Political Fragmentation: Reform's Rise, Tories' Fall The UK's political landscape remains volatile. Recent local and by-election results project a national vote share that would see the Reform party at 30% and the Conservatives decimated to around 15% and potentially only five seats.(01:08:44) Germany Considers Banning Far-Right AFD Germany is contemplating a ban on the far-right AFD party, the largest single party in the Bundestag. The hosts discuss the problematic nature of banning popular political movements, arguing it often backfires.(01:11:21) Jay Rayner on Media: Mainstream vs. Social Food critic Jay Rayner's comments on the state of media are discussed, questioning the perceived universal informedness of mainstream journalists and acknowledging that both traditional and social media produce "rubbish."(01:15:29) AFL Round-Up: Carlton's Collapse, Collingwood-Geelong ClassicCarlton suffers a 10-goal drubbing by Adelaide, with Jack Silvani's absence keenly felt.Collingwood vs. Geelong is hailed as a "cracker" game, showcasing great skill and sportsmanship.Concerns are raised about key AFL games not being available on free-to-air television, potentially alienating younger fans.(01:22:18) Cricket News: Indian Prodigy & Vale "The Buzz" A 17-year-old Indian cricketer makes waves in the IPL with a century.

Are our efforts to help the poor always helpful, or could they sometimes do more harm than good?Today, we'll explore how short-term missions can genuinely reflect the heart of Christ and bring lasting change, without unintentionally hurting the very people we aim to serve. Dr. Brian Fikkert joins us for that conversation.Dr. Brian Fikkert is a Professor of Economics and Community Development and the Founder and President of the Chalmers Center for Economic Development at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. He is also the co-author of the book, Helping Without Hurting in Short-Term Missions.What Is Poverty—Really?Americans often define poverty materially—a lack of necessities, such as food, clean water, clothing, or shelter. As a result, short-term mission trips often center around distributing goods or completing construction projects. But when you ask materially poor individuals around the world what poverty means to them, they describe feelings of shame, helplessness, and a lack of dignity.This reveals a disconnect: while we view poverty as a lack of material possessions, those experiencing it often define it in relational, psychological, and spiritual terms. True poverty is brokenness in relationship—with God, self, others, and creation. That insight should transform how we approach short-term missions.Even the most well-intentioned trips can do harm. Why? Because those going on these trips may carry pride, believing they have the answers or that their culture holds superiority. In contrast, those in materially poor communities often struggle with inferiority. That combination can worsen the very sense of worthlessness we hope to alleviate.Rather than reinforcing this brokenness, we should pursue humility and listen more than we speak. The goal should not be to "fix" but to restore—to foster healthy relationships that reflect the image of God in all people.Presence Over ProjectsShort-term trips shouldn't be about what we accomplish but about who we become in relationship.If poverty is rooted in broken relationships, then the solution is to restore people to right relationships. And that doesn't come through handing out supplies or completing a checklist—it comes through deep, lasting community.That's why the local church is God's primary instrument of restoration. Mission teams should support these churches in a “backstage” role—serving quietly, praying faithfully, and encouraging leaders who are already embedded in the community. Sometimes the best thing you can do is babysit the pastor's children so he and his wife can enjoy a night out. That kind of support strengthens the long-term work far more than any single project ever could.The Sending Church's Role in Long-Term SuccessMany short-term trips blur the line between gospel and Western culture. But the gospel transcends culture—and so should we.Colossians 1 reminds us that Christ is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. That means He is already at work in every community, regardless of how impoverished it may seem. When mission teams enter a new culture, they should approach it reverently, as if stepping onto holy ground. There is beauty in every culture, and highlighting it can be healing. Simply asking, “What's good here?” affirms the image of God in others and begins the work of restoration.How can the sending church help ensure long-term success in missions?It's not about executing a flawless trip. It's about fostering enduring partnerships with local ministries. That includes showing up year after year, offering consistent prayer and support, and being safe spaces where local leaders can be authentic. Success is not measured by how much we build but by how deeply we walk with others through life.Fundraising as a Form of DiscipleshipShort-term mission fundraising can also be reframed. Young people often feel pressure to produce tangible results in exchange for financial support. But if the goal is to learn and grow, that's a worthy investment.Go as a learner and communicate that clearly to your supporters. When trips are part of a larger discipleship journey, they become valuable not only for those being served but also for the transformation of those who participate.Still, we must be wise stewards of God's resources. Many trips could be more effective if better embedded in a long-term process of learning and partnership.Short-term missions, when done right, can become powerful instruments of healing and restoration. But they must begin with a correct understanding of poverty and a humble willingness to be shaped by the journey.For churches preparing for trips this summer, Helping Without Hurting in Short-Term Missions is more than a resource—it's a reorientation of purpose.To explore Dr. Fikkert's work or find resources and group studies designed for churches, visit Chalmers.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I just bought a new SUV and was offered bi-weekly payments. Would it be advantageous to opt for this option over monthly payments to minimize interest?My mother passed away in October of last year, and my sister and I are going to sell her house probably next month. My question is, in Texas, there's no inheritance tax. But is there an inheritance tax federally?We have some friends who asked us to give them a letter of giftedness to help them buy a home. They're asking for $17,000, for which they have $17,000 in cash that they will exchange for our check immediately. We don't understand why they can't just use their own cash, and we're not sure if helping them would cause difficulties for us or them.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineThe Chalmers CenterHelping Without Hurting in Short-Term Missions by Brian Fikkert and Steve Corbett with Katie CasselberryWhen Helping Hurts: How to Alleviate Poverty Without Hurting the Poor... and Yourself by Steve Corbett and Brian FikkertWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Forskare: Det viktigaste är inte infrastruktur eller fordonen utan förarbeteende. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. – Vad vi gjorde som aldrig gjorts förut är att vi gick ut på staden och fiskade efter olyckor, säger Marco Dozza som är professor i aktiv säkerhet och trafikantbeteende vid Chalmers tekniska högskola i Göteborg. Chalmersforskarna som har studerat detta med olyckor med elsparkcyklar har gjort det på ett nytt sätt. För att fiska efter elsparkcykelolyckor så utrustades ett antal elsparkcyklar med sensorer och kameror.– Sen väntade vi på att någon hyrde och åkte runt och om man väntar tillräckligt länge så kommer en kritisk händelse eller olycka att inträffa. Vi utrustade 17 elsparkcyklar och dokumenterade nästan 7 000 resor, säger Marco Dozza. Forskarna noterade 19 olyckor och 42 kritiska händelser där det var nära ögat, och med hjälp av kamerorna och information från sensorerna om bland annat hastighet och om hur fordonen manövrerade så kunde dom studera vad som hände precis innan och som kunde ligga bakom olyckan.Marco Dozza och kollegan som han gjort studien tillsammans med bedömer att var femte av dom säkerhetskritiska händelserna var avsiktlig, och i dom annorlunda normer för elsparkcykelkörning som han tror ligger bakom så finns också med att det här var just hyrda elsparkcyklar, då kan folk bry sig mindre om ifall fordonen blir skadade menar han. Men också i många av dom oavsiktliga olyckorna så är det vårdslös körning inblandad, eller åtminstone mindre trafiksäkert beteende, och då kan det ofta bero på dålig förståelse för och erfarenhet av det speciella med just elsparkcykeln som fordon enligt Marco Dozza.Reporter: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se
Nothing is better than a fresh episode of the Real Life podcast to recap the weekend and start your week. On the Monday episode of Real Life, the guys discussed the Oilers' series win, what to expect from the Vegas Golden Knights, and much more.The boys were shorthanded for the Monday episode of Real Life, but Tyler, Chalmers, and Baggedmilk kicked off the podcast with a recap of their first round win over the Los Angeles Kings. While many of the pundits and experts felt this was the Kings' year to beat the Oilers finally, what actually happened was a fantastic display of resilience by an Edmonton crew that would not quit. As a result, the Kings announced that they've parted ways with Rob Blake as the team's GM only days after a fourth consecutive first-round exit.Looking ahead at the Vegas Golden Knights, Tyler walked the boys through what to expect from their second round matchup vs. the Vegas Golden Knights. While there's little doubt the Golden Knights are a fantastic hockey club, Tyler also singled out some areas where the Oilers could have an advantage over the team that knocked them out of the playoffs two years ago. Changing gears, the guys then looked back at the two Game 7s that happened over the weekend, and how both games had the wildest endings you could ever hope to see.Finally, the guys wrapped up the Monday episode of Real Life with a random collection of topics, including a look back at some of the stats from Oilers/Vegas from two years ago, depth scoring, tactics, and much more. Despite playing shorthanded for the Monday show, the boys worked through the hour with an array of topics that were all over the map.
Interview with Mark Chalmers, President & CEO of Energy Fuels Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/energy-fuels-nyseuuuu-what-us-automotives-want-7028Recording date: 2nd May 2025Energy Fuels is emerging as a standout player in the critical minerals sector, with its unique dual focus on uranium and rare earth elements production. The company recently demonstrated its operational capabilities by producing 151,400 pounds of uranium in April 2025 from its Pinyon Plane mine, achieving higher-than-expected grades of approximately 1.6%.Led by industry veteran Mark Chalmers, who brings 49 years of global uranium production experience, Energy Fuels has strategically positioned itself to capitalize on growing supply constraints in the uranium market. Chalmers offers a sobering assessment of the global uranium supply situation, noting that the best deposits worldwide are depleting while new discoveries remain limited, unpermitted, and undeveloped.The company's White Mesa Mill represents a significant competitive advantage, with the flexibility to switch between uranium and rare earth processing based on market conditions. This capability allows Energy Fuels to respond with unusual agility to customer demands and price fluctuations.Beyond current production, Energy Fuels is advancing multiple mining projects including Roca Honda in New Mexico, Bullfrog, and potential restarts at the La Sal Complex, Energy Queen, and Whirlwind mines. The company emphasizes "pounds above the ground" rather than just theoretical resources.Energy Fuels has positioned itself to potentially provide 50-100% of US demand for multiple critical minerals, aligning perfectly with governmental priorities for secure domestic supply chains. Despite strong federal support, regulatory and permitting challenges remain significant barriers to rapid industry expansion.Chalmers believes uranium prices must rise "well into the hundreds" per pound to incentivize new production and ensure long-term industry sustainability. With uranium currently trading around $70/lb and production costs at approximately $40/lb, Energy Fuels stands to benefit substantially from this anticipated price appreciation while executing its unique strategy in critical minerals.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/energy-fuelsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
The Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers is trying to reassure voters that a re-elected Labor Government wouldn't jeopardise the nation's prized Triple A credit rating.
Nothing is better than a fresh episode of the Real Life podcast to recap the weekend and start your week. On the Monday episode of Real Life, the guys discussed the Oilers' series comeback, Evan Bouchard's redemption, the NFL draft, and much more.The guys started the Monday episode of Real Life by looking at the Oilers' miraculous comeback in their first-round series against the Los Angeles Kings. While neither Games 3 nor 4 were masterpieces by Edmonton, the resilience they showed to come back on both nights was as extraordinary as it was concerning that they could keep doing it. As much as the comebacks were thrilling, wouldn't it be nice to have the boys find an early lead and be able to keep it for 60 minutes?Diving into the Game 4 win, the guys discussed the Oilers' comeback win and how Sunday's victory was as electric as it gets in the post-season. Starting with the way the Oilers got better as the game wore on, the guys wondered why it takes the boys being down by a goal or more before they're able to get themselves going.Changing gears, the guys looked at the NFL draft from this past weekend, and how the Cleveland Browns snagged Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round even though some people — his old man, specifically — were hyping him up as a top prospect. Since Jay is a massive Browns fan, everyone wanted to know whether or not he'd be purchasing a new jersey to celebrate his team's new toy. From there, Chalmers also let the boys know about a prank call involving Sanders and how the kid's dad ended up taking shrapnel as a result.

Thursday afternoon means a fresh episode of Real Life was recorded, edited, and ready to help you through the rest of your work week. On today's podcast, the guys discussed The Last of Us, Wednesday's Game 2 loss, where the Edmonton Oilers go from here, and much more.The guys kicked off the Thursday episode of Real Life with a conversation about anything other than the Edmonton Oilers. Instead, Chalmers ranted about The Last of Us after Wednesday's episode dropped a bombshell on viewers that our man did not see coming. Given that no one else on the podcast watches the show, the conversation didn't last more than a few seconds. If you're a fan of the show, however, you probably know what Chalmers was talking about.Changing gears, the boys got a second rant from Chalmers about the state of the Oilers. After dropping Game 2 more disappointingly than the first game, it was incredibly frustrating to watch a veteran team like this battle the details of their game as much as they are. Whether you're concerned with the goaltending, the defensive coverage, the lack of offence, or all of the above, there's little doubt that there are countless issues the Oilers need to sort out if they have any hope of getting back in the series.On a positive note, Tyler offered a few reasons why Oilers fans should be hopeful. As good as the Kings are at Crypto.com Arena, they are equally bad as the away team, which could give Edmonton an avenue to chip away at the deficit. As much as hoping for the best is part of the Oilersnation brand — Hope Will Never Die after all — it can be a battle when the team looks as down as they are right now, but the mission for Friday is to bring the good vibes anyway.
