What this passage is teaching us today is that when you find yourself in the valleys of life, keep digging because there you will find the wells of God's promises. When you are in situations that are not going according to plan, when there is tension and conflict in your life that you do not have the strength to resolve, and when it feels like there is no well of life to drink from in those moments, God is with you there and he can even be found there. 2 points for us today: The valleys of life & The wells of God's promises.

7 key takeaways from this study God measures hearts more than amounts. The half-shekel ransom (Exodus 30) and the widow's two coins show that what matters most is heart posture, not the size of the gift. Rich and poor gave the same ransom; the widow gave “all she had.” Ransomed people are called to purposeful service. Exodus' census (ransomed out of Egypt) and Numbers' census (selected for battle) show a pattern: God rescues first, then deploys. Freedom from bondage leads into a calling, not passive comfort. Stewardship exposes our true priorities. In 2Kings 12, the priests gladly received money but failed for 23 years to repair God's house. Their inaction revealed where their real priorities lay — they were comfortable with the system but not committed to the mission. Accountability protects both people and God's reputation. The methods in 2Kings 12 and Ezra 8 (lockbox, multiple money counters, clear procedures) and Paul sending Titus with the gift (2Corinthians 8–9) show that transparent handling of resources is a spiritual duty, not just a business best practice. Holy things must not be made common. The anointing oil and incense (Exodus 30) were not to be copied or commercialized. When what is holy is treated as common — whether smells, symbols, or God's name. It confuses the nations and distorts who God is. Priests (and all leaders) must align hearing, doing, and walking. The blood on the ear, thumb, and toe (Leviticus 8) pictures shema (hear), asah (do) and halach (walk). Leaders who moralize a lot and don’t do it themselves (Matthew 23) misrepresent God as badly as corrupt priests in Israel's history. Where your treasure goes, your heart follows. Messiah's teaching (“where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,” Matthew 6) ties together money, time, talents, and calling. Investing in God's kingdom — with resources, energy, and obedience — shapes and reveals the direction of the heart. In this study, we’ll explore how Adonai ransoms His people, calls them to serve, and then examines how they steward what He places in their hands. Are God's people really “all in” for the Kingdom of Heaven, or just loosely involved (even apathetic) with their surplus? Where Your Treasure Is: The Heart of the Matter “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.“ Matthew 6:19-21 NASB95 This is not merely about financial giving. It is about what a person values most — where their mind, emotions, and will (collectively, the “heart”) are oriented. Treasure may include: Money Time God-given talents and skills Spiritual gifts Any “storehouse of value” entrusted by heaven Money is simply a representation of value — a “certificate of appreciation” or “certificate of completion” that says, “Someone did something I value.” That means the way people hold and use money reveals what they actually honor, trust, and love. Messiah's interaction about the Roman tax illustrates this (Matthew 22:15–22). When asked if taxes should be paid to Caesar, He requests a coin and asks whose image it bears. When they answer, “Caesar's,” He replies: “Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are God's.” Matthew 22:21 NASB95 Coins bear Caesar's image. Human beings bear God's image. The study suggests the real issue is not “Do we give money?” but “Do we give ourselves?” This ties identity (tzelem Elohim, God's image) to stewardship. The call is not just to manage finances well, but to align the whole self with the kingdom. Exodus 30: The Half-Sheqel Ransom and Atonement The first main text is Exodus 30:11–16, part of the Torah portion Ki Tisa (“when you lift up” or “when you take up”). Adonai commands Moshe to take a census of Israel, but it is done in a surprising way: Each man 20 years and older gives half a shekel It is called “a ransom for himself to the LORD” (Exodus 30:12) The rich may not give more, the poor may not give less (Exodus 30:15) The money funds the service of the Tent of Meeting and becomes “a memorial” (Exodus 30:16) The Hebrew expression מַחֲצִית הַשֶּׁקֶל makhatzit ha-sheqel (half the sheqel) is crucial. It is described as: A כֹּפֶר kofer (ransom) for each life A means of atonement. A safeguard “so that there will be no plague among them when you number them” (Exodus 30:12 NASB95). This census is not about demographic data but about redemption identity. The people of Israel have just been brought out of מִצְרַיִם Mitzrayim (Egypt, “the house of slavery/bondage,” Exodus 13:3, 14; 20:2; Deuteronomy 5:6; 6:12; 7:8; 8:14; 13:5, 10; Judges 6:8; Micah 6:4; Joshua 24:17; Jeremiah 34:13). They did not merely “leave” Egypt; Heaven ransomed them out of it. This frames salvation not as a casual rescue but as a price paid. A ransom implies: Something (or someone) has been taken A cost is demanded for release The redeemer absorbs that cost So each half-sheqel becomes a tangible reminder: You belong to the One who bought you out of slavery (1Corinthians 6:20; 7:23). At the same time, Scripture warns us about reducing people to money. Counting coins instead of persons is meant to protect against treating people as mere financial units. Later history shows what happens when societies start thinking that way — people become commodities, even less valued than money itself. Numbers 1: From Ransomed People to a Fighting Force The next major step is the census in Numbers 1:1–3. Again, Adonai speaks to Moshe in the wilderness of Sinai, but the purpose is different: “Take a census of all the congregation of the sons of Israel, by their families, by their fathers' households, according to the number of names, every male, head by head from twenty years old and upward, whoever is able to go out to war in Israel.” Numbers 1:2–3 NASB95 Here the key verb is פָּקַד paqad (often “to visit,” “to number,” or “to appoint/select”). The teacher emphasizes that this is not just counting; it is selecting and appointing. The pattern is: Exodus census: You are ransomed out of bondage. Numbers census: You are numbered/selected for battle. The move is from freedom received to freedom defended. The study notes that once Israel is free, the question becomes: Is this freedom worth fighting for, under God's mission and leadership? In the wilderness accounts, when the people balk at entering the land because of fear (Numbers 13–14), it exposes their lack of trust. They treat the mission as too costly, despite having been ransomed by great miracles. This parallels the life of a believer in Messiah: redeemed out of spiritual bondage, yet called into costly obedience, spiritual warfare, and faithful endurance — not mere spiritual tourism. Priestly Calling: Hearing, Doing, and Walking Two passages illustrate the ordination of Israel’s priests: Exodus 29:4–9 – Aharon and his sons receive garments, anointing, and a perpetual priesthood. Leviticus 8:23–24 – Blood is placed on: The lobe of the right ear The right thumb The big toe of the right foot Ancient Jewish commentators see in this a pattern: Ear – for hearing Thumb/hand – for doing Toe/foot – for walking These align with three key Hebrew concepts: שָׁמַע shama‘ (“to hear, listen, obey”) עָשָׂה asah (“to do, to perform”) הָלַךְ halakh (“to walk, to go”), from which הֲלָכָה halakhah (“way of walking/practice,” i.e., tradition) comes. Priests are thus marked to: Hear God's word Do what He commands Walk in ways that reflect His character When Messiah later critiques certain leaders (Matthew 23), saying they “say things and do not do them,” He is confronting a breakdown in this priestly pattern. Their halakhah (practical walk) contradicts the Torah and the heart of God, even if their words sound religiously correct. This priestly pattern extends to all who serve in the name of Yeshua. One cannot merely teach Torah, or speak of Messiah, while living a life that contradicts both. Hearing, doing, and walking must remain aligned. Holy Oil, Holy Incense, Holy Lives: Guarding What Belongs to God Alone Back in Exodus 30, here are the key characteristics of the anointing oil and incense used in the מִשְׁכָּן Mishkan (“dwelling place,” the Tabernacle): These mixtures are “most holy” (קֹדֶשׁ קָדָשִׁים qodesh qadashim, “holy of holies,” the same Hebrew term for the Most Holy Place of the Mishkan). They must not be copied for personal or commercial use They must not be applied to common people for their own pleasure. The concern is that what uniquely signifies the presence and authority of God could be trivialized, commodified or associated with corrupt behavior. Later archaeology finds household figurines and inscriptions combining the divine Name with “His Asherah,” suggesting syncretism (mixing of disparate belief systems) and distortion. When Israel took the symbols of the Mishkan and mixed them with pagan patterns, contemporary and later observers (namely, Bible-critical archaeologists) could conclude Israel was no different from the surrounding nations. This is an assemblage of pottery shards from a 8th century B.C. (900s) jar (titled Pithos A) found at the Kuntillet Ajrud site in the northeastern Sinai peninsula. The inscriptions show five figures, including a bull and a calf. A seated musician or weaver is to the right side of this reconstruction. The phrase above the figures includes the phrase “Yahweh of Samaria and his Asherah.” (Choi, Gwanghyun. “The Samarian Syncretic Yahwism and the Religious Center of Kuntillet Ajrud.” 2016) This warns against: Treating divine symbols, language, or worship styles as branding tools. Borrowing holy imagery to sell, entertain, or self-promote. Confusing people about who the God of Israel truly is. Holy things must remain holy, not because God is petty, but because misuse misrepresents Him. 2 Kings 12: The Priests Who Wouldn't Repair God’s House A parallel passage to Exodus 30:11–16 is 2Kings 12:1–16. It’s from a very messy political period in Israel's history: a divided kingdom north and south, coups, moral corruption led by idolatry. One of the few “good” kings, יוֹאָשׁ Yo'ash ( Jehoash/Joash) of Yehudah (Judah, southern kingdom), commands that: All money brought to the house of the LORD Census money Freewill offerings prompted by the heart Be used by the priests to repair the damages of the Temple On paper, this is ideal: those entrusted with God's house use God's people's gifts to maintain that house. But decades pass. By the 23rd year of Joash's reign, “the priests had not repaired the damages of the house” (2Kings 12:6). The king confronts יְהוֹיָדָע Yehoyada‘ (Jehoiada) the priest and the others: Why haven't you repaired it? The text implies: Money flowed in. Repairs did not happen. The priests eventually agree, likely under Yoash’s coercion, to stop receiving repair money and stop pretending they will do the work. This is a sobering mirror: People may have correct theology and even be called by God. Yet their inaction and misplaced priorities betray their hearts. They grow comfortable receiving, but not serving. Note the contrast between the priests and the contractors Yoash later hired to do the repairs. Yoash had secure chest is installed — sealed with a hole is bored at the top — and multiple overseers count and distribute funds transparently. The text explicitly notes there was no suspicion of embezzlement, because the contractors acted faithfully. This lines up with the larger biblical pattern: Stewardship is not only spiritual. It is accountability with practical outcomes. High Places vs. the Holy Place: Compromise and Confusion Looking at the kings of Judah and Israel after Solomon: Many are described as having done evil “in the high places” Even relatively “good” kings of Judah sometimes failed to remove the high places The northern and southern kingdoms start to look strikingly similar, even with similar or the same names for rulers at parallel points in time.

Thiele, whose chronology synchronizes biblical data with Assyrian records. All northern kings “did evil … walked in the ways of Jeroboam” (e.g., 1Kings 15:34). Southern evaluations vary. High places were local worship sites often associated with idolatrous or syncretistic practices. Torah had commanded Israel to bring offerings only to the place where God put His Name—the Mishkan, later the Temple—precisely to avoid mixing worship of Adonai with that of the surrounding nations. The problem is not mere geography. It is mixed allegiance. When Israel keeps the Temple but tolerates the high places, the message becomes blurred: Is the God of Israel just one option among many? Are His instructions just one flavor in a spiritual marketplace? This speaks directly to modern spiritual life. The presence of a “Temple” in one's life — congregational involvement, correct doctrine, our identity in the Messiah — does not cancel out the heart's hidden “high places”: areas of compromise, competing loyalties, or unchallenged cultural idols. Ezra 8 and 2 Corinthians 8–9: Accountability and Cheerful Giving In 2Corinthians 8–9, apostle Shaul (Paul) handles a large gift for the believers in need. Some have seen hints in the text suggesting some feared Paul might mishandle funds.1“Paul handles a possible misinterpretation of the collection. Paul has already been accused of embezzlement (cf. 2Cor 12:16ff.), a charge that he addresses in a preliminary way in 2Cor 2:17. In order to prevent any criticism about his handling of this gift, Paul avoids making the delivery himself. Instead, he has commissioned representatives of the participating churches to deliver the collection. The analogy to Ezra's procedure is obvious (Ezra 8:24–30).” (Scott, James M. 2 Corinthians. Understanding the Bible Commentary Series. Grand Rapids: Baker Books, 2011. Paragraph 42958.) In response, he: Sends Titus and other trusted brothers with the gift Insists things are done honorably “in the sight of the Lord and in the sight of men” Emphasizes that giving must be willing and cheerful, not pressured Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2Corinthians 9:7 NASB95 He then quotes Psalm 112:9: He scattered abroad, he gave to the poor,His righteousness endures forever. Psalm 112:9 NASB95 The same God who “supplies seed to the sower and bread for food” (2Corinthians 9:10) is able to multiply the seed and increase the harvest of righteousness. The issue is not fundraising technique; it is aligning generosity with God's character. Some see parallels to Ezra 8:24–30,2Scott, paragraph 42958 where Ezra receives significant contributions from the Persian emperor and the people of Israel for rebuilding the Temple and Jerusalem. Ezra: Chose 12 leading priests. Weighed the silver, gold, and utensils into their hands. Held them accountable to deliver everything safely to Jerusalem. Two people verify what is given and what is received. The aim is to avoid even the appearance of financial misconduct (1Thessalonians 5:22). The Widow's Two Coins: Heart Over Surplus The study then turns to the Gospels' scene of the poor widow (Mark 12:41–44; Luke 21:1–4). Yeshua sits opposite the treasury and watches: Many rich people put in large sums. A poor widow drops in two small copper coins. Messiah declares: “Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the contributors to the treasury; for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on.” Mark 12:43–44 NASB95 From heaven's perspective: Amount is not the primary measure. Cost to the giver and heart motivation are. The widow surrenders her whole life, not just a portion of disposable income. This echoes the intensive devotion the altar of incense symbolizes in Exodus 30 — prayers rising as a representation of the people themselves, deemed “most holy” in God's sight. This challenges both religious pride and fear-based withholding. It calls for whole-hearted trust (i.e., faith) in the God who sees and values the hidden sacrifice. Treasures in Heaven: The Final Measure “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal;for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:19–21 NASB95 Our journey through Scripture today — Exodus, Numbers, 2 Kings, Leviticus, the Gospels, 2Corinthians, Ezra and Psalms — has a consistent message: God ransoms His people. God selects and appoints them for service. God entrusts them with resources — time, money, ability, knowledge. God watches how they steward it. God measures the heart by where that treasure actually goes. For the priests who failed to repair the Temple, their neglected tasks revealed that their treasure — and thus their hearts — lay elsewhere. For the widow who gave her last coins, her action revealed a heart fully entrusted to God. If someone followed the trail of how a believer uses money, time, energy, and gifting, would it lead to the kingdom of heaven — or somewhere else? To be “all in” for the kingdom is to let Adonai direct every “certificate of value” He has placed in one's hands, whether coins, skills, or hours in the day. The ransom has been paid; the call is to serve with all the heart, all the soul, and all the strength (Deuteronomy 6:4–5), storing up treasure where Messiah reigns and where no thief can touch it. 1 “Paul handles a possible misinterpretation of the collection. Paul has already been accused of embezzlement (cf. 2Cor 12:16ff.), a charge that he addresses in a preliminary way in 2Cor 2:17.

New dining landmarks blend cultural heritage with innovation by reimagining historical spaces and fusing diverse culinary traditions with modern business and competitive formats.A primary example of this blend is found in San Antonio at Esencia, a restaurant led by Chef Leo Davila. This venue is characterized as a "cultural fusion masterpiece" that operates within the historic St. Anthony Hotel. By placing a modern fusion concept within a landmark hotel, the establishment honors the heritage of its location while pushing the boundaries of contemporary cuisine.Other landmarks, such as The Atlas in Boston's Allston neighborhood, blend cultural heritage with innovation by creating spaces tailored to specific community identities, specifically targeting "intellectuals and foodies". This approach integrates the intellectual culture of the area with a modern gastronomic landmark, turning a dining space into a cultural hub.The sources also highlight how innovation is applied to the very nature of culinary engagement through "Food Sport". The World Food Championships represent an innovative evolution of culinary heritage, transforming traditional cooking into a high-stakes competitive event that brings global attention to host cities like Indianapolis.Furthermore, the industry's drive toward innovation is often led by influential figures who blend their cultural backgrounds with new industry standards. For instance, Roy Choi, a pioneer in culinary fusion, continues to influence the landmark dining scene by headlining major industry events like the Bar & Restaurant Expo, where the focus is on the anniversary of industry evolution and the future of food and beverage experiences.While the sources mention Roy Choi's role as a headliner at the Bar & Restaurant Expo, I am drawing on my own knowledge—which you may want to independently verify—to note that Choi is widely recognized for innovating the modern food truck movement by blending Korean and Mexican cultural heritage, a concept that has paved the way for many of the "fusion masterpieces" mentioned in the sources.

Send us a textBuyers don't want to be sold; they want to see. We sit down with Steven Choi of ShedPro to map out a simple, high-impact plan for modern shed sales: show up where high-intent customers search, make your website convert, and use a fast, accurate 3D configurator that turns curiosity into confident orders. Steven shares what has changed since the early days of skepticism and why 3D has become a standard, not a novelty, for builders who want steady lead flow and higher-margin sales.We walk through a live demo that brings the value to life: interior cutaways, electrical layouts, lofts, shelving, insulation, even tiny home concepts with cabinet finishes and appliance swaps. When customers can visualize decisions in real time, they upsell themselves—moving to larger footprints and smarter options that match how they'll use the space. The result: faster sales cycles, bigger tickets, and better handoffs from sales to operations with quotes, sales orders, and work orders generated directly from the 3D design.Steven also addresses adoption worries—timelines, onboarding, and cost. Shed Pro's approach emphasizes speed to value (weeks, not months) and a white-glove setup so your team isn't buried in tech tasks. We dig into specialty models—combo buildings with porches, dog kennels with dynamic runs, pavilions foundations, and two-story structures with staircase visualization—reflecting the industry's evolution from “just storage” to outdoor living and tiny homes.If you're ready to simplify your digital stack and sell more with clarity, this conversation delivers the blueprint. Subscribe, share with a teammate who needs a nudge toward 3D, and leave a review with the one feature your buyers would click first.Enjoy the conversation and then take action—subscribe, share with your team, and leave a review so more builders and dealers can find it.

Playwright Ins Choi joins Laura Mullin to talk about Kim's Convenience, the play that eventually became the hit television series. Choi shares why he started writing the play, what it was like to spend years facing rejection, and how one chance meeting transformed the story he thought he was telling. He reflects on being a first-time playwright thrown into television, the full-circle moment of playing Appa after writing from the son's perspective, and on Toronto's talent that is often underestimated. It is a candid conversation about writing for the stage, adapting for TV, and how a small play became a cultural phenomenon.Kim's Convenience by Ins Choi
Dr. Eugene K. Choi is a former healthcare leader turned performance coach who supervised 6 major hospitals and 250+ clinics until he discovered the hidden neuroscience keeping even the best leaders stuck. After walking away from a six-figure pharmacy career to become a filmmaker (generating 30+ million views), then coaching hundreds of entrepreneurs, he uncovered a brutal truth: 90% of clients already know what to do, they're just not doing it. The reason? By age 35, 90-95% of your brain runs on autopilot, keeping you trapped in survival mode instead of accessing executive-level thinking, creativity, and decision-making.He explains:◼️ Why your brain's "executive state" is turned off 70% of your adult life—and the exact neuroscience behind feeling stuck, anxious, or burned out◼️ The difference between survival brain versus executive brain—and how to recognize which state you're operating from right now◼️ How he went from six-figure pharmacist → broke filmmaker → viral content creator (30M views) → business coach—and the pattern he noticed in every failed execution◼️ Why stress literally shuts down your ability to make good decisions, solve problems creatively, and connect with people (and how to reverse it)◼️ The "know versus do gap"—the neurological reason you understand the strategy but don't execute (hint: it's not laziness or lack of discipline)◼️ Why cold exposure, discomfort, and stress tolerance are the secret weapons for building entrepreneurial resilience◼️ The dangerous AI trap: why people are forming emotional bonds with AI therapists and robots—and what happens when Gen Z prefers AI relationships over messy human ones◼️ How to break the autopilot loop by age 35 when your brain defaults to thinking the same 70,000 thoughts per day (90% are repeats)◼️ The science-backed practice to activate your executive brain at will—even in high-pressure, unpredictable situations◼️ Why "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" is scientifically false—and how your brain can rewire itself until its dying breathTIMESTAMPS:05:15 – From six-figure pharmacist to broke filmmaker: the leap10:30 – Why 90% of coaching clients know what to do but don't execute15:45 – The 70% survival state problem: your brain is turned off20:20 – Survival brain vs. executive brain: the difference25:10 – The neuroscience behind "I know it's good for me but I don't feel like doing it"30:35 – Cold exposure and stress tolerance for entrepreneurs35:50 – Viral content secrets: 30 million views and the psychology behind it40:15 – The AI dystopia: humans dating robots and losing resilience45:30 – How to rewire your autopilot brain after age 35CONNECT WITH DR.

As 2025 comes to a close, we're revisiting interviews with this year's nominees and winners of some of the biggest prizes in literature. Last up: A 10-year-old girl, Louisa, is later found on a beach in Japan – and her father has disappeared. She and her mother are left on their own – but the tragedy doesn't bring them closer together, at least for a long time. Susan Choi's novel Flashlight follows this family across generations and a vast historical expanse. In today's episode, Choi speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about why her protagonist fends off love, her interest in the historical tensions between Korea and Japan, and the benefit of writing in chronological order.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Designing for television isn't just about building sets — it's about knowing when to preserve them, when to break them, and how to let them evolve over time. On Slow Horses, that long view shapes every creative decision. This week on Below the Line, Skid is joined by Production Designer Choi Ho Man, with Gianni Damaia returning as co-host, to talk about the fifth season of Slow Horses, the Apple TV+ espionage series starring Gary Oldman. Choi traces her journey on the show from supervising art director to production designer, and how designing across multiple seasons requires long-term thinking, flexibility, and restraint. We take a deep dive into: How Slow Horses was designed as a rolling, multi-season project, shooting in pairs of seasons with overlapping crews and compressed turnaround times The evolution of Slough House itself, including how destruction at the end of Season Four informed the repaired, modernized, and slightly haunted version seen in Season Five Designing spaces that reflect character psychology, from Lamb's office to Ho's flat Building and rebuilding modular sets — lifts, car parks, corridors, offices — to stretch resources while preserving visual continuity Developing MI5 Headquarters (“The Park”) as a recurring environment, mapping unseen spaces to make the building feel architecturally complete Stitching together complex action sequences from multiple locations and stage builds, including chase scenes, stairwells, and exterior-to-interior transitions How practical construction, visual effects, and stunt coordination intersect on large-scale action sequences involving paint, height, and confined spaces Why face-to-face collaboration still matters, including sketches, models, and conversations that can't be replaced by emails or message threads Across five seasons, Slow Horses proves that production design isn't just about creating spaces — it's about letting those spaces absorb history, pressure, and consequence, until the environment itself becomes part of the story.

Luke 1:46-55 helps us see what moved Mary to sing—and how what she saw can move us to sing this Christmas as well. Mary's song was not naïve optimism; it was the overflow of encountering the character of God. In her moment of fear, uncertainty, and costly obedience, she discovered the reality of God breaking into her life as she experienced these 3 truths: God's presence, God's power, and God's mercy. And if we, like Mary, learn to see God breaking into our lives in these 3 ways our hearts, too, will be moved to sing with deep and lasting joy.

In this episode of the NCS Podcast Hot Topics series, host Richard Choi, DO, FNCS, speaks with Katharina Busl, MD, MS, FNCS, division chief of neurocritical care at the University of Florida and assistant editor for Neurocritical Care journal. They explore new research on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) clearance after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. They also discuss the study Prospective Trial of Cerebrospinal Fluid Filtration After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: The Lumbar Catheter Extension (PILLAR XT) Trial, which evaluates a dual-lumen intrathecal catheter designed to filter CSF and accelerate removal of red blood cells and inflammatory byproducts. Their conversation highlights the rationale behind CSF drainage, how prior work like the Early Drain trial shaped the field, and what this early-phase device trial reveals about feasibility, safety, and reductions in CSF RBC and protein levels. Dr. Bussel and Dr. Choi also touch on implementation challenges and the need for larger trials before this approach can move into broader clinical use. The views expressed on the NCS Podcast are solely those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the opinions or official positions of the Neurocritical Care Society.
Albert “Shrimp” Burns rose from a teenage mechanic in Oakland to become one of the most feared and beloved racers of the 1910s. Competing on the dangerous wooden motordromes —nicknamed “murderdromes” for their lethal design—he raced in front of crowds of 20,000 spectators at a time when board-track racing was one of America's most popular sports. By sixteen, Shrimp had become a national celebrity. He rode for both Harley-Davidson and Indian, shattered records, won over crowds, and pushed his body beyond its limits. He died at twenty-two. Much of his history vanished into scattered archives, newspapers, and forgotten race programs. Shrimp: The Albert Burns Story reconstructs his meteoric rise and tragic end using hundreds of primary sources and rare photographs, reviving a lost American icon and the brutal, glamorous world of early motorsports. Author Billy Choi joins us to talk about this much forgotten era of motorcycle racing, and the racers that lived and died for the sport.

Read along with our transcript.What if the solution to winter's infrastructure corrosion and environmentally benign home sidewalk de-icing was an invasive starfish being thrown back into Korea's coastal waters? Hando Choi, president of Star's Tech, joins the conversation to explain how one region's invasive species problem can become another's environmental breakthrough. The company developed ECO-ST, a de-icing product made from starfish skeletons that not only melts ice faster than conventional rock salt but also reduces the chloride pollution that causes billions of dollars in damage to roads, bridges, and vehicles every winter.Meanwhile, in Korean waters, the Northern Pacific sea star has become such a menace to shellfish aquaculture that the government purchases 3,000 to 4,000 tons annually to control populations. Stars Tech upcycles about 10% of that collected material, extracting the porous calcium carbonate structures that give starfish their shape and their remarkable ability to store and release chloride. The technology began as a high school science project when founder and chief scientist Seungchan Yang experimented with natural pore structures to control ion release, eventually connecting that research to the negative impacts of conventional deicers while studying at Seoul National University.The economic case is compelling once you factor in the full cost of ownership. While ECO-ST runs $465 to $650 per ton compared to $100 to $150 for commodity rock salt, salt itself accounts for less than 5% of most winter maintenance budgets. The Isaac Walton League of America estimates that infrastructure damage from road salt ranges from $30 to $300 per ton used. Stars Tech's simulations based on U.S. municipal data show ECO-ST can deliver up to 5,000% ROI over time when lower infrastructure maintenance costs, fewer reapplications, and ESG compliance benefits are factored in.ECO-ST is available on Amazon in the U.S. and Canada, with retail partnerships launching this winter.

Success in business isn't just about working harder. Dr. Eugene K. Choi highlights the importance of recognizing when we're stuck in survival mode and intentionally shifting to the executive state, where creativity, empathy, and better decisions thrive. Many of us spend about 70% of our adult lives in a stress-driven survival state. Imagine the impact if leaders could operate from the executive state more often. It starts with self-awareness. Fight, flight, and freeze responses often appear subtly - as overworking, avoidance, or busywork - quietly holding leaders and teams back. In the latest episode of A Better HR Business, I speak with Dr. Eugene K. Choi, PharmD, BCPS, a neuroscience-based leadership coach, about how leaders can rewire their minds to access their best thinking and potential. We've talked about: Why most leaders unknowingly operate in a survival state and how it limits productivity. How emotional triggers sabotage decision-making and team culture. Practical neuroscience techniques - meditation, exercise, emotion-labeling—to rewire your brain and shift your mindset. P.I.E. Theory of Success: Performance, Image, and Exposure - and why the right order matters. The power of storytelling, emotional resonance, and authenticity in leadership and marketing. Strategies for breaking free from self-sabotage and building impactful habits. If you're ready to go beyond “working harder” and lead from the executive state, this episode is full of actionable tools for high-stress business environments.

Anna and Geoff discuss their Booker Prize winner predictions. We haven't read enough of the shortlist to know who will win, but Geoff is tipping THE LAND IN WINTER (a DNF for Anna). Our book of the week is FLASHLIGHT by Susan Choi. This is Choi's follow-up novel after winning the National Book Award for TRUST EXERCISE. It is a sweeping family saga set in America, Japan and Korea. Shortlisted for the 2025 Booker Prize, we could not say we loved this one but it got us talking. How much cat litter detail is too much? Would Tobias really have gone to Japan or would he be trekking around Nepal? Could we read a whole novel of Serk? How many unlikeable characters in a novel is too many? And we revisit 'that year' when Margaret Atwood and Bernadine Evaristo won jointly. Coming up: CREATION LAKE by Rachel Kushner. Follow us!

Kate Aronowitz, and Meaghan Choi, and Mike Davidson are three leaders who have different perspectives on where design is headed, and what it means to build meaningful careers in this rapidly changing landscape.

Ahoy SAVOR listeners! We’re excited to share part one of a two-part interview featuring the legendary Roy Choi with the excellent podcast Dos Amigos, hosted by Wilmer Valderrama and Freddy Rodriguez. Choi, a Korean-American chef, transformed the culinary world with his groundbreaking Korean-Mexican taco truck, Kogi BBQ. The amigos and Choi dive into their shared immigrant journeys, including growing up in LA, and how family, struggle, and identity shaped their creative paths. Choi opens up about how Emeril Lagasse helped spark his passion for food and shares the story behind Kogi’s rise from a truck to a movement that redefined LA’s streets. “Dos Amigos” is a comedic and insightful podcast hosted by two friends who’ve journeyed through Hollywood and life together. Wilmer Valderrama and Freddy Rodriguez push through the noise of everyday life and ruminate on a bevy of topics through fun and daring, and occasionally a third amigo joins the mix!
