Shawn Howarth, President and CEO of Excellon Resources (TSXV:EXN) (OTC:EXNRF)(FRA:E4X2), joins us to outline all the development work building towards mill pre-commissioning and trial mining ramp up into production over the next few quarters at their flagship Mallay silver-lead-zinc mine, located in the Cerro de Pasco area of Peru. We then review the value proposition and optionality across their other 3 projects: Tres Cerros, Kilgore, and Silver City.    Mallay Development Highlights:   Mill ready for pre-commissioning. All critical refurbishment and wet commissioning milestones completed; bulk-sample campaign targeted for June 2026. ~15,000 tonnes stockpiled from Isguiz vein and Footwall Zone. Surface stockpile provides representative feed for the pre-commissioning bulk-sample campaign. Infill drilling informing updated restart planning. Results from the ~2,500-metre program are being integrated into the geological model; the Company expects to have an updated restart plan and schedule in early Q3/26. Drilling underway to test mineralized extensions: Two rigs active at site targeting extensions of the Isguiz system at depth, the Pierina gold target and Mallay Deeps — a downhole electromagnetics ("DHEM") exploration target; a third rig is expected at Shafra in June. Operational team strengthened. New Operations Manager appointed at Mallay; technical capacity expanded in the resource modelling, mine planning, and contract management areas. Dewatering of the 400-ramp advanced. Rehabilitation of the 400-ramp is now underway, providing access to Isguiz below the 4090 level.   The work completed over the last several months, includes finishing the mill refurbishment, assay lab upgrades, completion of the initial infill drill program and the expansion to three drill rigs.   This positions the Company to begin testing the process plant in a measured way. Shawn outlines that their operations team is treating June as a bulk-sample exercise, which is designed to validate metallurgy, grades, recoveries, and concentrate quality.   There will then be a steady commissioning of the mill via underground mining and surface stockpiles for the second half of the year, ramping up towards nameplate capacity at 600 tpd by year end.   There is also an systematic exploration program underway with the goal of further resource definition and expansion testing extensions of the Isguiz system at depth, the Pierina gold target, and the exploring along the broader Shafra Zone.  With current silver prices materially above the US$30/oz assumptions used in their February 2026 Mineral Resource Estimate, they believe there are footwall areas and expansion areas that can convert into economic ore and then come into the future mine plan.   In 2025, Excellon secured an off-take agreements with Glencore for their lead and zinc concentrates, Shawn outlined that their internal studies project a run-rate of 600 tonnes per day of production, producing approximately 2-2.5 million silver equivalent ounces per year, and with a target All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) of US$17 per AgEq ounce.  They are also open to eventual expansion of the plant once more mineral resource growth and data comes back in from all the drilling underway and on tap for the for the foreseeable future.   The Tres Cerros Project is a highly prospective gold-silver exploration project approximately five kilometers northwest of the Mallay Mine. The project's prime area of interest is a 2.5 kilometer by 500 meter corridor of gold-silver mineralization and coincident IP/resistivity anomalies, indicative of a bulk tonnage, high sulfidation epithermal system.  Numerous historical grab samples were taken across the 2.5 kilometer fault, which are being analyzed to determine further follow-up exploration work.   Kilgore, is an advanced gold project in Idaho with over 1 million ounces of gold delineated in all categories, and the Company is considering bringing in a JV partner to assist with moving this project forward in exploration and further derisking.   Silver City, a high-grade epithermal silver district in Saxony, Germany, with a long history of almost 800 years of silver production.  Shawn has stated publicly that they are looking at spinning out this asset into a new European-focused silver exploration vehicle. There was just $2million raised in the private holding company for data compilation and for presenting the market with a more defined value proposition and drill program.   Click here to follow the latest news from Excellon Resources   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

The Chairman Of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, throws more light on this in this insightful message titled "Seek The Peace And Prosperity Of The Nation " at the Commissioning of the newly-built Executive Ward for the Suhum Government Hospital. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode: 4 national leaders discuss the future of Homecare, Tech and Fair Funding and Commissioning and present opportunity to truly value the sector's workforce. They call on the new Health and Social Care Secretary to really understand the contribution homecare makes to our nation.   "Homecare's time has come. There are three shifts that the government talks about, from hospital to community, treatment to prevention, Analogue to digital. All of those three are precisely where homecare sits"

Notes Matthew 28:16-20 Genesis 1:1-2:4A Exploring the profound themes of the Great Commission and Genesis 1, this episode delves into the nature of faith, doubt, and the ongoing work of creation. Join us as we unpack the theological depths of Matthew 28 and Genesis 1, emphasizing community, God's authority, and intrinsic goodness.

Pastor Matt opens by grounding the sermon in a universal truth from Romans 3:23, which says, "For everyone has sinned. We all fall short of God's glorious standard." From that foundation, he introduces the big idea of the message: Jesus transforms sinners and then sends them on mission — He starts working in you, then works through you. Turning to Acts 9:1-18, Pastor Matt walks through the stunning conversion of Saul, a man who was not merely indifferent to Jesus but was actively "breathing threats and murder" against His followers. On the road to Damascus, Jesus confronted Saul with a blinding light and a piercing question — "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?" — and in that moment, everything changed. From this passage, Pastor Matt draws three lessons: Jesus confronts us in our direction, Jesus interrupts us with His presence, and Jesus redefines our purpose. The sermon takes a meaningful turn as Pastor Matt connects Saul's story to a present-day celebration — the graduation of Jacob and Katie Willoughby from the Antioch Project, a five-year vocational ministry training program. Just as Saul spent years being trained and prepared before God deployed him fully into his calling, Jacob and Katie have spent five years in deep study, mentorship, hands-on ministry, and character development. Their work with Christian Impact — a college ministry they launched in Fort Worth, Texas — is already bearing fruit, with students coming to faith and growing in their walks with God. Pastor Matt closes with a challenge to the entire congregation: everyone has a calling, everyone has a next step, and no one ever fully arrives on this side of eternity.

Jesus tells his disciples to go, therefore and make disciples of all nations. He is commissioning them and us to evangelize the world. The disciples do not immediately follow this command as they are not yet ready to do so, but once they receive the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, they immediately follow through on this great commissioning listen to my homily to learn more.

In this special episode of the REIT Report, Bridget Bray, director of partnerships at Power TakeOff, joins Nareit's Jessica Long, senior vice president of environmental stewardship and sustainability, to discuss how the company delivers utility-funded Virtual Commissioning (VCx) programs across the United States. She shares how the firm works with commercial real estate owners to improve net operating income and increase asset value by identifying and rectifying energy waste through analysis of utility smart meter data. She explains how Virtual Commissioning is distinct from traditional retro-commissioning programs—it requires no on-site visits, no hardware installation, and no contracts with building owners. The service is free for building owners and is funded directly by utility partners.Power TakeOff partners with nearly 30 utilities across the country to deliver utility-funded Virtual Commissioning (see map for details). Bray shares details on how Power TakeOff's team of experienced energy advisors analyzes smart meter data remotely to identify abnormalities in energy usage patterns and, through virtual consultations with property managers, facilities managers, or on-site engineers, provides personalized recommendations to optimize existing building systems and controls. 

Technical teams are conducting 24-hour systems testing at the hospital site to ensure full functionality, supported by a senior health consultant overseeing the transition of services.

You were never meant to just sit on the sidelines. Pastor Fred walks through Acts 13:1-5 and 20:17-24, showing how the Holy Spirit calls, equips, and sends us to live on mission, raising up leaders to serve and reach others in everyday life.

Damien Janssen and Daniel Hollett share their stories as Damien is commissioned to be the Chair of the Church Board, and Daniel is commissioned to be Chair of the FCC Council.

If you've ever been on a project where "commissioning" meant checking a few points and signing off, you've seen the problem firsthand.   Confusion between functional testing and commissioning shows up everywhere and it quietly impacts project outcomes, budgets, and your credibility.   In this episode, you'll start to see where the lines actually are and why understanding them changes how you show up on every job. This isn't about definitions. It's about protecting your work, setting expectations, and delivering buildings that actually perform.   Topics Covered Why functional testing and commissioning get mixed up on real projects Where responsibilities break down between contractors and commissioning agents How scope confusion impacts cost, timelines, and accountability The role you play in educating owners and project teams Why positioning commissioning correctly builds long-term trust   If you want to speak confidently with owners, GCs, and design teams, this is a conversation you need to hear.

What do you do with your ordinary, everyday life as you go out into the world? In this chapel service, President Hoekstra charges graduating seniors to take what they've learned - both in academics and in Scripture - and carry it into their daily walk, so that others may be drawn to Jesus through the way we live out our faith.

And subscribe to Rosemary’s “Engineering with Rosie” YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! There is a story unfolding across this industry right now. It is a story of two worlds. One world is closing its doors. The other is throwing them wide open. Let us start in New Jersey. EEW American Offshore Structures filed for Chapter Eleven bankruptcy on April eighth. This was the first monopile manufacturing facility ever built in the United States. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy announced a two hundred fifty million dollar investment in the Paulsboro Marine Terminal back in twenty twenty. It was called the largest industrial offshore wind investment in the country at the time. At full buildout… five hundred thousand square feet of production space. More than one hundred monopiles per year. Five hundred workers. They even built the first American-made monopile… for Orsted’s Ocean Wind project. It weighed three million pounds. It measured three hundred feet long. Then Orsted canceled Ocean Wind One and Two. Then Shell pulled out of Atlantic Shores. Without contracted work… workers disassembled and recycled finished monopiles for scrap. Federal policy shifts removed the pipeline of future projects. A landlord eviction filing followed. And then… Chapter Eleven. That is a two hundred fifty million dollar facility… with nowhere left to go. Now stay with us. Because just offshore… another American offshore wind story is fighting for its life. Vineyard Wind… the sixty-two turbine project fifteen miles south of Martha’s Vineyard… filed suit in Massachusetts against GE Renewables. GE Vernova says Vineyard Wind owes it three hundred million dollars for work already performed… and it wants to walk away at the end of April. Vineyard Wind says not so fast. The developer says GE still owes five hundred forty-five million dollars for what it calls inexcusably poor performance after a catastrophic turbine blade collapse in July of twenty twenty-four. Fiberglass blade fragments washed onto Nantucket beaches during peak tourist season. Sixty-eight of seventy-two blades had to be removed and replaced. That set the project back nearly two years. Construction did reach completion in March… making Vineyard Wind the first offshore project to finish under the current administration. But now the only contractor capable of completing the remaining work… wants out. A court hearing was scheduled for Thursday. And now… look eastward. Something similar is playing out in Korea. European offshore wind companies are exiting the Korean market one by one. Corio Generation, a British firm owned by Macquarie, disbanded its Korean unit and pulled out of joint projects in Busan and Ulsan. Germany’s RWE quit offshore wind projects in Taean and Sinan counties. Vestas postponed its turbine factory in Mokpo… indefinitely. Equinor began reducing its Korean workforce. Shell exited the Korean offshore market entirely in twenty twenty-four. These companies point to worsening global profitability… and Korean government policies they say favor domestic companies over firms with greater experience. Korea had a target of three gigawatts of offshore wind by twenty thirty. That goal is now in serious doubt. But here is where the story turns. Not every market is closing its door. Eight thousand miles from New Jersey… in the Sunshine State of Queensland, Australia… the final forty-one turbines just arrived at the Wambo wind project. Cubico Sustainable Investments and Stanwell are building a five hundred six megawatt project on the Darling Downs. Stage One… two hundred fifty-two megawatts… already feeding the Queensland grid. Stage Two deliveries are now complete. Commissioning and full operations are on track for the end of twenty twenty-six. And up in Ontario, Canada… the province just approved fourteen new wind and solar projects totaling more than thirteen hundred megawatts. The average price… eight point eight cents per kilowatt hour. Compare that to twenty-one point four cents for some proposed nuclear projects… and more than thirty-two cents for certain new reactor designs. Contracts run for twenty years, with all projects online before twenty thirty. So let us step back. In New Jersey… the first American monopile factory files for bankruptcy. Off Massachusetts… a completed offshore wind farm fights to keep its contractor. In Korea… European developers pack their bags. But in Australia… turbines arrive on schedule. And in Canada… wind power undercuts nuclear at the meter. The wind energy industry is not in retreat. It is choosing its battlegrounds. And where the conditions are right… the blades are turning. And now you know… the rest of the story. That is the state of the wind industry for the 13th of April, twenty twenty-six. Join us for the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast tomorrow.

Celebrating Resurrection Power: A Journey from Gethsemane to Victory In this special Easter episode of the Gospel on the Radio talk show, Pastor Jack King reflects on the life, ministry, and ultimate triumph of Jesus Christ. Drawing from the Gospels, specifically the direct accounts in the book of Mark, Pastor Jack illustrates how Jesus' ministry of hope and healing was designed to establish a "Church Triumphant" that stands against the kingdom of darkness. He discusses the spiritual weight of the Garden of Gethsemane, the human frailty of the disciples, and the profound reality that the resurrection was not just a historical event, but a victory that continues to offer hope to the brokenhearted today. -- The significance of the resurrection as the primary reason the church gathers on the first day of the week. -- A look at the ministry of Jesus through the Gospel of Mark, highlighting His use of the Word to defeat temptation. -- The "Commissioning" of the church in Matthew 16 and its historical role in pushing back spiritual darkness. -- The Triumphant Entry on Palm Sunday and the cleansing of the Temple as a restoration of true worship. -- The intense spiritual battle in Gethsemane where Jesus submitted His will to the Father for the redemption of mankind. -- A personal reflection on the beauty of the old hymns and the unchanging power of the "Old Rugged Cross." Scriptures for Further Study -- Matthew 16:18 -- Matthew 26:36-46 -- Mark 1:12-13 -- Luke 4:18-19 -- John 11:1-44 -- John 12:12-13 This is episode 1271. ******* This is the radio program with the music removed.

Session 12 - The call and commissioning (Vanessa Dalais) by Eglise La Cité

In this episode of Finding Freedom, host John Odermatt sits down with Jeremy Stalnecker, former US Marine Corps infantry officer, combat veteran, and executive director of Mighty Oaks Foundation. Jeremy shares his journey from leading Marines during the 2003 invasion of Iraq to struggling with identity loss after leaving the military, and ultimately finding purpose through faith-based veteran support work. The conversation explores how military service creates a deeply ingrained identity that can leave veterans lost when they transition to civilian life, often leading to anger, isolation, and even suicidal thoughts. Jeremy explains how Mighty Oaks Foundation addresses the root cause—identity crisis—rather than just treating symptoms, helping over 7,000 veterans, first responders, and their spouses rebuild their lives on a foundation of faith and purpose. The discussion covers leadership principles from Jeremy's book "Leadership by Design," emphasizing that true leadership is about serving others and helping them reach their potential, not about rank or authority. Jeremy advocates for a holistic approach to veteran care that combines clinical therapies with spiritual foundation, arguing that without clarity on identity and purpose, other interventions fall short. The episode concludes with information on how Mighty Oaks provides free five-day programs and ongoing aftercare to help those struggling with post-traumatic stress and transition challenges.

This episode is a live recording of Jason Vallotton's message at Bethel Church on November 30, 2025—a raw, clarifying teaching on God's Plan for Forming Men, shared in the context of the upcoming BraveCo Rite of Passage Event in Jacksonville February 28, 2026.God has a blueprint for forming men who carry strength, humility, and responsibility into their homes, marriages, and work. That blueprint is both simple and demanding—formed, filled, and finished—and it unfolds through the stages of calling, testing, equipping, and commissioning.In this message, Jason unpacks why being made from dust matters, why being filled with the Spirit is non-negotiable, and why testing isn't punishment but refinement. Marriage becomes a mirror. Work becomes a training ground. Feedback becomes the tool that confronts ego head-on. Equipping looks like delayed gratification—showing up when you don't feel like it, choosing peace over pride, and learning to carry responsibility without collapsing under it. Commissioning comes when failure is no longer hidden, but redeemed into testimony that helps other men walk free.The turning point is mentorship. Jesus didn't say, “Follow me and figure it out.” He said, “Follow me, and I will make you.” Jason brings this home through the powerful rite-of-passage story of Caleb, a young man born with club feet who completed a brutal course because a tribe refused to let him walk alone. This is the heart behind BraveCo: men formed in community, forged through challenge, and released with clarity and purpose.This episode is a call to movement—not theory. You'll hear a practical vision for how men can get connected, equipped, challenged, and sent, and why identity is forged best in brotherhood. Great men aren't born. They're built—together.Next StepsSubscribe so you don't miss future conversationsShare this episode with a man who needs brotherhoodLeave a review to help others find the podcastAnd we'd love to hear from you: Where are you in the journey—calling, testing, equipping, or commissioning?PatreonIf you've enjoyed this podcast, would you consider financially supporting the show?

In this short podcast episode, Bryan breaks down the differences between a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) and an electronic expansion valve (EEV). He highlights their strengths and weaknesses. In the basic refrigerant circuit, the metering device drops the pressure. TXVs and EEVs are both metering devices that cause the liquid refrigerant to drop in pressure and become a liquid-vapor mixture; they control evaporator feeding and maintain a constant superheat. TXVs achieve this by mechanical means; the bulb responds to suction line temperature and evaporator pressure at the valve. They are self-contained and easy to diagnose with basic refrigeration measurements. However, they are prone to mechanical failures, including clogged orifices and screens, cracked capillary tubes, and powerhead leaks. Installation errors are also easy to make, and TXVs can hunt in low-load conditions. Overall, failures are often mechanical and refrigerant-related. They win in the simplicity department. EEVs receive inputs from sensors and modulate in response to those digital signals. They have a wider modulation range and maintain stable control in low-superheat applications, and they do well in conditions with highly variable loads or where coordination across multiple coils is required. EEVs come in two types: stepper motor (small, discrete steps) and PWM (controlled solenoid valves). Stepper-style EEVs excel at fine positioning, and PWM-style EEVs are in applications that require a more robust valve (like CO2 refrigeration). EEV failures are often electromechanical or related to sensor control. They win in the controllability department. There is no "best" metering device; they merely have different strengths that make them better suited to different applications. However, EEVs are the future due to the greater degree of controllability we will need in newer equipment. Commissioning and airflow are also crucial for getting the most out of both metering device types in terms of longevity and reliability.   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

With the rapid rise of AI workloads, data centers are being built with higher power density, stricter reliability expectations, and cooling technologies that are evolving faster than most teams can adapt. As a result, these facilities aren't just getting bigger—they're becoming harder to operate, harder to staff, and far less forgiving when something goes wrong. Global electricity demand from data centers is projected to reach approximately 945 terawatt-hours by 2030, driven by sustained annual growth of around 15% through the end of the decade. Yet industry research shows data center workforce development is failing to keep pace, leaving operators short on experienced talent just as systems grow more complex. between rapid infrastructure expansion and the discipline and training required to support it—has become one of the industry's most pressing risks.So as direct liquid cooling moves from “future” to “field reality,” do we have the commissioning rigor—and the trained technicians—to keep these sites safe, consistent, and online?That's the core theme in this episode of Straight Outta Crumpton, hosted by Greg Crumpton, featuring Jay Kallsen, Commissioning and Customer Manager at Impact Cx and co-founder of Method Xperts. Together, they unpack what commissioning really means, why the next wave of data center growth is fundamentally a people-and-process problem, and how standardized training could unlock faster, safer adoption of liquid cooling at scale.What you'll learn...Commissioning vs. “it turns on”: Jay explains commissioning as verifying that equipment and systems operate as designed—not merely at startup, but across real-world sequences, tolerances, and failover conditions that operations will depend on.Why “pathways” beat pep talks: Both emphasize that people aren't afraid of hard work—they're afraid of dead-end work. Creating visible pathways (training, mentoring, on-ramps) is the backbone of effective data center workforce development, especially as systems become more complex.Liquid cooling needs a common foundation: Jay argues that the industry lacks a shared baseline for what a “liquid cooling technician” even is. The opportunity is to build foundational knowledge first, then train the OEM-specific nuances—so field service can scale without silos.Jay Kallsen is a mission-critical infrastructure professional with deep experience across data center operations, commissioning, and liquid cooling, beginning his career as a union electrician (IBEW Local 22) and advancing through hands-on roles at CBRE, Schneider Electric, and Google. At Google and later hyperscale and colocation operators, he led and supported mega-data center commissioning, cooling retrofits, direct liquid cooling pilots, and portfolio-level operational standardization, bridging construction, commissioning, and live operations. Today, as Commissioning and Customer Manager at Impact Cx and co-founder of Method Xperts, he focuses on workforce training, curriculum development, and liquid-cooling enablement, translating real-world operational knowledge into scalable industry solutions.

Happy Monday everyone Henrik Andersen has seen a lot of failed auctions. The Vestas chief executive watched subsidy-free tenders collapse in Germany… France… the Netherlands… even his home country of Denmark. Developers wouldn’t bid. The risk was too high. But this week… Andersen stood before investors with different news. The UK’s AR7 delivered eight point four gigawatts. A record. Eight projects approved… including two floaters. Denmark and eight North Sea nations committed to one hundred gigawatts. And Germany’s onshore auction pipeline… is finally moving. Andersen sent thanks directly to Ed Miliband… Britain’s Energy Minister. “Now it’s starting to work.” … The difference? Bilateral CfDs. After watching zero-subsidy models fail across Europe… governments returned to revenue stabilization. Strike prices developers can actually finance. Andersen believes the industry should learn from these auction designs… before repeating old mistakes. Steen Brødbæk at Semco Maritime agrees. Projects are maturing. Suppliers… can finally earn a living. … Vestas identified three priority markets in their annual report. Germany for onshore. North America. And Australia. The drivers? Energy security concerns. Data center load growth. And the AI electricity surge that every grid operator is scrambling to model. As for Chinese OEMs entering European tenders? Andersen would be surprised. “You should never be surprised by anything these days,” he said. “But in this case… I would actually be surprised.” … Down in Western Australia… Warradarge is proving his point about mature markets. Four of thirty additional turbines are now vertical. When the expansion completes… eighty-one machines will generate two hundred eighty-three megawatts. The state’s largest wind farm. Owned by Bright Energy Investments… a joint venture between Synergy and Potentia. One hundred twenty workers at peak construction. And critically… the state is building transmission to match. Clean Energy Link North… the largest grid upgrade in Western Australia in more than a decade… will unlock capacity in the South West Interconnected System. Generation AND grid… moving together. That’s how you hit a 2030 coal exit. … Meanwhile in Taranaki… New Zealand… Vestas secured a twenty-six megawatt order with a twenty-year service agreement. Hiringa Energy is integrating wind with green hydrogen production at scale… serving transport… industry… and agriculture. Turbine delivery begins Q1 this year. Commissioning… Q2 twenty-twenty-seven. One of New Zealand’s first large-scale wind-to-hydrogen projects. The electrolyzer economics are finally penciling. … But you can’t install offshore turbines without vessels. And South Korea just solved a bottleneck. Hanwha Ocean won a three hundred eighty-five million pound contract… to build a WTIV capable of fifteen-megawatt class installations. Korea’s first vessel at that scale. Delivery… early twenty-twenty-eight. Korea expects twenty-five gigawatts of offshore capacity by 2035. They’re not waiting for European vessel contractors. They’re building their own supply chain. Hanwha has now delivered four WTIVs globally. … Not everyone is celebrating. At Siemens Energy… activist investor Ananym Capital is pushing to spin off Siemens Gamesa. CEO Christian Bruch calls the idea reasonable. But timing matters. The wind division must stabilize first. Bruch believes offshore wind can follow the same recovery path as the grid business… which went from crisis… to profitability. Turnaround before transaction. … So, last week we had: CfDs reviving European auctions. Australia building generation AND transmission together. New Zealand coupling wind with hydrogen. Korea investing in installation vessel capacity. And Siemens… working to fix its turbine business before any restructuring. Different geographies. Same lesson. The projects that succeed… are the ones where policy… supply chain… and capital… finally align. … And that is the state of the wind industry for the 9th of February 2026. Join us tomorrow for the Uptime wind energy podcast.

In this episode, Mickey sits down with CPT Taylor Scroggins—company commander (Bravo 1108) and member of the Integrated Primary Prevention Workforce (IPPW). They talk ASVAB origin stories, choosing an MOS with intention, what ROTC and Advanced Camp really look like, and how being proactive (instead of reactive) can change everything—from range safety to career progression to unit readiness. What you'll hear in this episode A range-day story that shows what “real leadership” looks like when safety standards matter CPT Scroggins' ASVAB experience: scoring a 61, not studying, and getting recruited straight out of JROTC How she chose 31B (Military Police): “Show me the full list of jobs I qualify for” MP training realities (yes—spray and taser) and what Guard-life as an MP actually felt like ROTC explained: SMP (Simultaneous Membership Program), skipping early years, and the real cadence of classes + labs Advanced Camp at Fort Knox: what happens, what people struggle with, and how ROTC programs can set cadets up to fail Commissioning traditions (first salute) and why her grandfather was an unforgettable part of her story Leadership fast-track: going straight to XO because of officer shortages—and doing the work even when it's “unrated” Being sent to an FSC (Forward Support Company) and still getting stuck as “acting XO” Deployment to Germany supporting the mission training Ukrainians (CPT Scroggins in SPO / logistics support) The career “binder” strategy: KD positions, broadening assignments, promotion points, and having a plan A wild moment: getting offered a TAC job… and walking out as the new S4 instead MDMP under pressure: solving a real statewide readiness problem with a tiny, brand-new staff IPPW explained: using D-IoX survey data to identify risk/protective factors and intervene before issues escalate Why intentionality keeps showing up in her story—from MOS selection to command Key takeaways Don't let someone else pick your career for you—start with the full list, then decide. The earlier you get intentional, the more leverage you have with opportunities later. Great leaders keep standards (like safety) even when it's inconvenient. Prevention work matters: improving climate and connectedness can reduce risks before they become incidents.

Opinion journalism on Russia has become a high-stakes enterprise since the start of the full-scale war in Ukraine, shaped by audiences sharply divided by politics and geography. At the center of these pressures are editors tasked with deciding which arguments deserve a platform, how much context readers need, and what constitutes responsible discourse. Few desks confront these challenges more directly than the opinion section of The Moscow Times. Against that backdrop, The Naked Pravda spoke with Charlie Hancock, the outlet's opinion editor, about how the job has changed in recent years. In the interview, Hancock describes her path into Russia-focused journalism, the unexpected editorial challenges that emerged early in the war, and the debates that now shape opinion writing on Russia. She also discusses navigating legal and political constraints, handling reader criticism, and balancing sharply divergent viewpoints while maintaining editorial coherence — and her own sanity.
