Industrial water work rewards people who can move between precision and practicality. Katie Holliday brings both. She started as a lab chemist, then transitioned into field service with Apex Water and Process, where much of her work supports healthcare facilities and high-accountability programs. Lab habits that protect your tools and your data Katie describes the first surprise of field work: a central plant is "very dirty," and the job demands good technique without chasing lab-level perfection. She shares a couple of simple practices that prevent expensive problems. Use proper lab wipes on glassware instead of shirts or paper towels, which can scratch surfaces and compromise readings. Keep pH probes wet with the correct storage solution, because once they dry out, they often stop working. Healthcare water: SPD work and Legionella prevention About 90% of Katie's accounts are healthcare. She defines SPD as the sterile processing department and explains why expectations shift compared to boilers and cooling towers. SPD work is cleaner, more controlled, and typically includes additional components such as endotoxin filtration and UV. It also involves more testing and stricter standards that tie directly to patient safety. Alongside SPD, she emphasizes Legionella prevention as a constant priority, from cooling towers (including secondary disinfection) to domestic water, because facilities want to reduce risk to patients. Water chemistry reality check: Phoenix versus "everywhere else" Katie explains how Arizona water changes the operating window. She notes high hardness and high chlorides, which can limit cycles of concentration and force conservative targets compared with places like Atlanta, where Trace describes running much higher cycles. The takeaway for experienced pros is familiar: operating limits are local, and "what good looks like" depends on the incoming water and the constraints that matter most at that site. Mentorship, representation, and field readiness systems Katie shares what it meant to be the first woman account manager hire in a long-running operation, and her advice is practical: recruit intentionally, then train people in the field, not from the sidelines. She credits her mentor, Bernie Peacock, for accelerating her learning curve, and she now passes that on by responding fast, following through, and providing steady backup to newer teammates. She also describes how she built mechanical confidence, using manuals, YouTube, phone video, and a OneNote playbook that captures account contacts, access details, sampling points, and "where things are" notes for clean coverage when someone else is on-site.

Rare earth elements are crucial for defence, auto and electronic industries and have become a geopolitical battleground. China controls 95 percent of the world's supply, thanks to cheap labour, vast deposits and lax environmental regulations. But a young French-American scientist has developed a groundbreaking process for recovering rare earths from neon light bulbs, and potentially other electronic appliances, paving the way for the recycling of these essential metals.

Many leaders reach a point in their career where something feels slightly "off" — even when, on paper, everything looks successful. In this episode, Gerrit Pelzer shares his personal professional journey: from studying chemistry and earning a PhD, through senior leadership roles in the chemical industry (including several years as an expat in Thailand), to eventually becoming an executive coach.Rather than telling a story for its own sake, this conversation uses Gerrit's journey as a case study for leadership reflection. Together, Martin and Gerrit explore what leaders can learn from moments of dissonance, gradual realization, and the courage to take inventory when a role no longer feels aligned.Key themes explored in this episode include:Why career change is rarely driven by a single "aha moment," but by many small signals that form a bigger picture over timeThe difference between being competent at a job and feeling genuinely fulfilled by itHow comfort, habit, and external success can quietly become a prisonThe importance of listening to recurring patterns: what people come to you for, what you're naturally good at, and where your energy goesWhy reflection — not action — is often what senior leaders need mostThe episode also revisits Daniel H. Pink's concept of motivation, focusing on autonomy, mastery, and purpose, and how these factors played out very differently in Gerrit's corporate career versus his work as a coach. (For a deeper dive, listen to our earlier episode on motivation at work.)If you sense that something in your professional life may need adjustment — without necessarily knowing what — the episode offers practical reflection questions and structured ways to explore next steps. One of these is the GAPS Grid, a tool frequently used in coaching to examine passion, abilities, and how others perceive your strengths. (We explore the GAPS Grid in detail in a dedicated earlier episode.)This episode is especially relevant for senior leaders who:Feel successful but not fully engagedAre questioning long-held career assumptionsWant to reflect more deeply on alignment, purpose, and directionAre considering change — but are unsure how to come to a clear and well-founded decisionRather than offering quick answers, the conversation invites you to slow down, reflect honestly, and face questions head-on — trusting that clarity often emerges through exploration over time.About Second CrackMore information about us and our work is available on our website: secondcrackleadership.com.

Today on Consuming the Craft, I welcomed Adam Bachman, the head production distiller and manager at The Chemist. We dove deep into the craft of distilling, from Adam's 11+ years of commercial experience in the industry to the evolution of American single malt whiskey. Adam shared stories from his early days building stills (legally for essential oils!), his academic path through biochemistry at Clemson, and how he transitioned through South Carolina's changing landscape of craft distilleries. We tasted some truly unique spirits and beers, including a locally smoked single malt and an oat whiskey, while discussing the challenges and creative opportunities in the world of craft distillation. Adam Bachman is recognized for his hands-on expertise in distilling whiskey, gin, and liqueurs, with a strong background in biochemistry and a minor in chemistry. He spent six years at 6 and 20 Distillery before moving to Asheville to join The Chemist, where he's helped ramp up whiskey programs, develop new recipes like the limited-edition rye, and recently barrel a small batch peated whiskey. Adam approaches distilling as both art and science, with a passion for experimenting with malts, grains, and local ingredients, and a deep appreciation for how changing techniques shape the identity of each spirit. "Getting second opinions is huge. I always try to get second opinions from the other guys working with us." ~Adam Bachman Today on Consuming the Craft:· Adam has over a decade of legal, commercial distilling experience and is responsible for spirit production at The Chemist. · His background in biochemistry directly informs his craft, providing unique perspectives and technical skills in distilling. · The Chemist uses traditional copper pot stills with direct flame; the techniques and nuances are vastly different from hybrid steam systems. · Chemist has evolved from a primarily gin-focused operation to a distillery with robust whiskey and rye programs, with Adam leading recipe development. · Adam's approach to whiskey includes blending different grains and experimenting with malts to create spirits with depth and complexity, notably in their limited rye and upcoming peated whiskey. · Tasting and understanding barrel-aging is a skill built over years, requiring constant monitoring, collaboration, and experience. · The growth of American single malt whiskey is opening up new creative possibilities; it's a rapidly growing category with endless flavor options. · Adam is also exploring non-alcoholic spirit development, navigating the unique sensory and shelf-life challenges in that emerging market.

What if most cannabis extracts are missing the point?In our last episode from Spain, Kirk visits with hemp innovator Peter Vermeul to explore stabilized, full-spectrum extracts that preserve cannabinoids like CBDA, THCA, terpenes, cannflavins and flavonoids—without heat or harsh solvents. Peter's road from developing hemp strains and his proprietary extraction technique for cannabis medicine was inspired by a family member with cancer, conversations with the legendary Professor Raphael Mechoulam and his extensive plant knowledge from his less than legal days. Now his extracts help people with Tourette's Syndrome, Parkinson's, epilepsy and many other conditions.Peter explains why cannabinoid acids matter, how legality shapes innovation, and why inconsistency with Spanish regulations is driving him to relocate to Suriname to build his dream cannabis-based medical clinic.Listen now to discover why the real power of cannabis may lie in what extraction usually destroys.Transcripts, papers and so much more at: reefermed.ca

In this episode, podcast co-hosts Dr. Dwight Stoll and Dr. James Grinias talk with Professor Kelly Hines. Dr. Hines is an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Georgia in Athens. She received her B.S. degree in Chemistry from the University of Florida, and then completed the Ph.D. in Chemistry at Vanderbilt University. Her doctoral studies focused on monitoring biomolecular signatures of disease via ion mobility and mass spectrometry techniques, and then she moved on to post-doctoral experiences at two different institutions. The first stop was at the metabolomics resource core at the Mayo Clinic, and the second stop was in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Washington School of Pharmacy. Kelly has won several awards in the field of chemical analysis, including recognition as a Female Role Model in Analytical Chemistry by Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, as an Emerging Investigator by the Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, an ASMS Research Award (which is one of the top honors that young investigators in MS can receive), and very recently was named as the Chemist of the Year by the Northeast Georgia Section of the American Chemical Society. In a wide-ranging conversation, we discuss the early origins of Kelly's interest in science rooted in her opportunity to explore the plant nursery managed by her father, and then her turn from civil engineering to analytical chemistry inspired by an early undergraduate course “Chemistry for Engineers”. We discuss Hines' recent and ongoing work involving the use of ion mobility mass spectrometry (IMS-MS), with pre-separation using chromatography when appropriate, for multi-omics studies, aimed at deeper understanding of the biochemistry of organisms at the metabolite level. We also discuss Kelly's positive experiences developing peer networks through regular attendance at conferences, particularly the American Society for Mass Spectrometry (ASMS) annual meeting, experiences in her second post-doctoral position that inspired her to pursue an academic position, and her approach to mentoring graduate students who show up in her laboratory with diverse backgrounds, interests, and abilities.
In the past century, a gardener named Peter Vermeul became known for growing top shelf cannabis in Holland. He grew organic black market weed from clones supplying Britain for premium prices. In the early 2000s, Peter's perspective on cannabis changed due to family illness. About this time, he acquired seeds for the Charlotte's Web strain from the Stanley Brothers which started his journey of creating CBD rich cultivars. Today, his proprietary strains are used throughout the world as medicine by more than just family. In this episode we start to tell the story of how this marijuana gardener becomes a cannabis chemist and how he learned to put the essence of a plant into the bottle.Transcripts, papers and so much more at: reefermed.ca

Tamburro, and his associate, Attorney Lindsay Chen, who focuses her practice on estate planning. This episode was recorded live at Caveau in Boston, Massachusetts, prior to our Boston Connect event. Dale and Lindsay's firm is based in Belmont, MA, a suburb just outside the city. Dale shares his journey from chemist to attorney, and Lindsay discusses her background as an MIT-trained engineer - two very different beginnings that ultimately led to rewarding careers in the legal profession. We explore how their former professions shaped their analytical thinking, client-centered approach, and the way they solve complex estate planning challenges. Dale is known for being highly approachable, dedicating significant time to educating seniors on the importance of proper estate planning, while Lindsay brings a fresh perspective working with a younger demographic. Together, their complementary strengths form a partnership focused on delivering exceptional service to their clients. This episode highlights how unconventional pathways can translate into excellence in law - and how both Dale and Lindsay found purpose and happiness through serving their clients.

The Scented Secrets of Time: How to Use the Memory Palace to Master Essential Oil History 101 (w/ Grandpa Bill & Adah)Welcome to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour! In this week's double-feature, my granddaughter Adah and I tackle Essential Oils History 101—but we aren't just reading dates. We are building a powerful new wing in Adah's Mnemonic Memory Palace to make 6,500 years of aromatic history stick forever.The true power of essential oils isn't found in a recent fad; it's rooted in ancient, global healing systems. We track the evolution of aromatic use through four essential stops:The Pharaoh's Roll (4500 BC, Egypt): Our Memory Palace journey begins at the Front Door where we use the Major System code 45 (R-L / Roll). We picture a Pharaoh rolling a giant stone of Lapis Lazuli. This image encodes the earliest ritual and embalming use of essential oils like Frankincense and Myrrh.The Distiller's Toast (10th/11th Century, Avicenna): Next, in the Kitchen, we honor the man who revolutionized oil purity: Avicenna. Our mnemonic shows him toasting (code 10 / D-S) his hands over a fire and tending to a giant Distiller (code 11 / D-T). This is the birthplace of modern distillation!The Chemist's Tip (1928, Gattefossé): Moving to the Study Desk, we encounter René-Maurice Gattefossé (pronounced Gah-teh-foh-say), who coined "aromatherapy" in 1928. To remember the date, we visualize Gattefossé in a panic, tipping (code 19) a beaker of lavender onto a Navy (code 28) uniform. Accident turned to discovery!The Doctor's Roar (WWII, Dr. Valnet): Our final stop on the Balcony brings us to Dr. Valnet. During the 1940s, he successfully used oils to treat wounded soldiers. Valnet is roaring (code 44 / R-R) at a giant Radio (code 44) to share his findings with the world.Whether you're a college student like Adah or a fellow "Silver Streaker" looking to sharpen your cognitive edge, the Magnetic Memory Method works. Tune into the podcast for the deep healing wisdom and watch the YouTube video to see the PAO system brought to life!Listen to the full episode on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour, and watch the visual mnemonic demonstration on YouTube @billholt8792!Why History Matters to Holistic HealthMaster the MemoryEssential oils 101-Our journey begins not with modern labs, but with the cradle of civilization, tracing the use of aromatic materials back nearly 6,500 years.
2/4: This file covers Fred Hoyle's academic career and the emergence of major cosmological debate. Hoyle earned his Cambridge PhD in 1939, originally wanting to be a chemist. During WWII, he worked on secret radar projects. Meeting astronomer Walter Baade proved pivotal; Baade proposed that Population 2 stars exploded as supernovae, distributing elements to newer stars. This inspired Hoyle's 1946 seminal paper on stellar nucleosynthesis, explaining how elements from hydrogen to uranium form in stars. Cosmological theories crystallized into competing camps: the Big Bang (from Friedmann and Lemaître's "primeval atom") versus Steady State theory. Einstein had written early steady state concepts but discarded them. Gamow supported the Big Bang, proposing all elements were created in the hot early universe. Early universe age estimates varied wildly between 2-10 billion years, far short of the accepted 13.8 billion years. Flashes of Creation: George Gamow, Fred Hoyle, and the Great Big Bang Debate, by Paul Halpern

Did you know that murder mystery writer Agatha Christie had a background in chemistry? In about half of her stories, the murder is committed using poison—something she was very, very familiar with. She had even trained in apothecaries to mix prescriptions by hand before she became a novelist. Chemist-turned-author Kathryn Harkup wrote about them in her new book, V is for Venom: Agatha Christie's Chemicals of Death. Harkup talks with Host Flora Lichtman about the science of poisons, why they're so popular in whodunnits, and how to get away with murder (in fiction writing, of course).Guest: Kathryn Harkup is a former chemist and author of V is for Venom: Agatha Christie's Chemicals of Death.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.
