Pool Pros text questions hereIt's the day after Christmas, and Rudy is not here to sing carols—he's here to correct one of the most common (and most expensive) field habits in pool service: measuring dry chemicals like you're baking cookies. The “two cups equals a pound” rule gets dragged into the sunlight, and then the episode pivots into a full chemistry fundamentals reset that separates pool-water reality from industrial-label marketing.Rudy breaks down the difference between “available chlorine” and “active strength,” explains why “stronger chlorine” is a myth once it hits the water, and connects that misunderstanding to overdosing, misapplied shock treatments, and combined chlorine problems that never seem to resolve. He also lays out the most overlooked concept in pool operations: oxidation and disinfection are not the same job, don't happen on the same timeline, and don't respond the same way to “just add more chlorine.”If you've ever heard “cal-hypo is stronger,” “it's almost as strong as chlorine gas,” or “hit it with 10x and it'll break,” this episode is your reset button.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeRudy digs into the stuff that gets repeated in the industry until it sounds true:Why “2 cups = 1 lb” is a trap A pound is weight. A cup is volume. Different products—even the same chemical at the same percentage—can take up very different space depending on bulk density, granule size, moisture, and how it packs in a scoop.The only responsible way to measure dry chems A scale is the gold standard. But if you're stuck doing field conversions, Rudy explains how to use the SDS to get the one number that matters: bulk density.The correct pounds-to-cups method (no guessing, no folklore) Rudy shows the logic: convert 1 lb to grams, convert grams to volume using bulk density, then convert that volume into cups. He also explains why SDS sheets often give ranges, and why that's a red flag for “one universal scoop.”Available chlorine vs. active strength Available chlorine is a comparison metric—industrial chemistry language. Active strength is concentration—how much product you need to hit a target ppm. Mixing these concepts is where dosing myths come from.The “chlorine identity” myth Once dissolved, product identity doesn't matter the way people talk about it. Pool water doesn't contain “liquid chlorine” or “cal-hypo chlorine.” It contains free chlorine species in equilibrium, governed mainly by pH (and heavily influenced by cyanuric acid in stabilized pools).Why oxidation ≠ disinfection (and why that matters) Disinfection is a biological kill/inactivation mechanism driven largely by hypochlorous acid. Oxidation is electron-transfer chemistry attacking ammonia, urea, sweat, and organics. They don't behave the same, and more chlorine doesn't magically turn slow oxidation into fast oxidation.Why shocking can make combined chlorine look worse Rudy explains how organic nitrogen doesn't “break clean” like ammonia-based breakpoint assumptions. Sometimes adding more chlorine increases chlorinated intermediates—so CC goes up before it goes down, or never resolves the way people expect.Cyanuric acid changes the gameWhere modern systems are headedNon-chlorine oxidizers (MPS) in plain English Support the showThank you so much for listening!

AFCON kicked off in Rabat, as Morocco opened with a 2-0 over Comoros in a game that featured an incredible overhead from Ayoub El Kaabi.Musa and Ryan begin there, before chatting about Kylian Mbappé, who equalled Cristiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid record for goals in a calendar year (05:28), as well as how impressive his time at the Bernabéu has been, despite getting off to a tricky start. Next up, it's Leeds' turn to get the props (18:32), after another great result, this time to Crystal Palace, that sees a great run from Daniel Farke's side continue. There's chat about the rest of the Premier League, including Aston Villa's win over Manchester United (24:07), wins for the top two, Liverpool's win at Spurs (33:37) and much more!From now until the end of December, you can get all the extra podcasts, ad-free, by signing up for a FREE membership at patreon.com/stadio.

In this powerful episode of The Chief Exchange, host Alec Wons sits down with Chief Reggie McKeithen, Health, Wellness, and Safety Chief of the Kansas City, Missouri Fire Department. With 17 years of service and a heart rooted in faith, Chief McKeithen shares his story of purpose, resilience, and transformation — from growing up in “Killer City” to reshaping the fire service through mental health, empowerment, and servant leadership. Chief McKeithen's wisdom runs deep: how journaling changed his life, why vulnerability is a form of courage, and what it truly means to serve with faith at the center. This episode is for anyone who's ever battled burnout, questioned their calling, or needed a reminder that new levels always come with new devils — but also new growth.
Matchday 17 was a weekend which started off with draws and then became a series of one-way results, some in emphatic fashion. Matt Clark (@MattClark_08) and Román De Arquer (@Aeroslavee) review it all.We start with the on-paper partidazo between Villarreal and Barcelona, which was unfortunately conditioned by a first half red card. The visitors won comfortably in the end to become Christmas number one, keeping Real Madrid four points back. Los Blancos had their own 2-0 victory on Saturday night against Sevilla, but left more doubts once again. The only real bright sparks were the form of Thibaut Courtois and Kylian Mbappé, who equalled Cristiano Ronaldo's club record for goals in a calendar year.Atleti won convincingly on the road to leave Girona in the danger zone, while Betis put four past Getafe to apply some pressure on Espanyol.In Part Two we discuss Elche returning to their best form and our concern for Rayo, who might be taking their eye off the ball domestically. The managerless sides played out a 1-1 draw, but Real Sociedad will really feel that it was two points dropped. Both clubs confirmed the appointments of their new coaches, so we evaluate their potential chances. Guillermo Almada has already begun life at Oviedo, but could not prevent the inevitable stalemate. We end by picking our moments of the year and wishing our listeners and subscribers at lllonline.substack.com a happy festive season. ¡¡Feliz Navidad!! Hosted on Acast.

Pausing to hear others builds ownership and strengthens accountability.Leaders share responsibility. Giving others a role in leading meetings and decisions creates confidence and momentum.Memorable quotes from Selena Rezvani“If your meetings are silent, your people are managing you.”“It's not your job to have all the answers.”“Leadership shows up in small, everyday moments.”Try This One Thing: The "First 5 Minutes" RuleThe Insight: If people are silent at the start of a meeting, they often stay silent until the end. Selena shares that research shows if someone speaks in the first 5 minutes, they are significantly more likely to contribute later.The Action: Open your next meeting by asking everyone to answer a simple, low-stakes prompt before you dive into the agenda.What to Say: "Everyone, we're here to talk about [Topic] today. Before we start, I want to hear from each of you: What is one word that comes to mind when you think of [Topic]?"Why It Works: It breaks the "lecture" dynamic immediately and signals that this is a space for participation, not just listening.Keep shining your light bright. The world needs you.About the GuestSelena Rezvani helps people show up, speak up, and shake up the way work gets done.

On this episode, Nick breaks down the simple truth that bullshit in the firehouse equals bullshit on the fireground. The habits, communication, discipline, and culture we allow inside the station show up when it counts most—during real emergencies. If we tolerate shortcuts, laziness, or poor preparation in quarters, it will translate into missed assignments, chaos, and safety risks at an incident.Nick talks culture, leadership, training, accountability, and mindset—and how small, everyday actions build big results. Strong crews build strong firegrounds. Weak firehouse habits become dangerous when lives are on the line. The solution? Clean up the nonsense, raise the standard, and stay ready.
“I like to solve problems, & I never give up.” – Martin Kenneth Lopez Most founders talk tough. Kenneth grew up in a place that required it. Lima, Peru — beautiful on the surface, unforgiving underneath. Corruption. Precarity. An environment built to break entrepreneurs. There's no help desk in a place like that. You either solve problems… or you get swallowed. That wiring became his operating system. So, when he launched his first company in his early 20s, he didn't seek the easy path — he sought a bigger arena. “Forget local,” he said. “I'm building for the U.S.” No connections. No warm introductions. Just hunger, a laptop, & LinkedIn. And his pitch wasn't polite — it was legendary: “Give me the project nobody wants. The ugly, neglected, impossible one. If I don't deliver, you don't pay me.” All the risk on him. All the upside for them. That's how a kid from Lima ended up solving Perl script nightmares for Bank of America… & earning a reputation as the one-man A-team you call when everyone else slinks away. Today at Equals 11, the stakes are higher — Salesforce chaos, global teams, stalled initiatives — but Kenneth's ethos hasn't budged: Run toward the hard. De-risk it for the client. Solve — don't whine. If you're the kind of person who gets stronger when the work gets messy, this episode is for you. Connect with him through Equals 11. Kenneth doesn't quote Churchill — he proves him right: “Difficulties mastered are opportunities won.”

Amy Harris of Clark County Matters argues that Portland's enforcement of its public camping ban — including dozens of arrests of individuals with open warrants — demonstrates the importance of pairing compassion with accountability.

Also, Congress passed a law requiring the DOJ to release the Epstein Files. What's next in this tangled political drama?

The totality of today's Economic Update is devoted to exploring (1) the multiple ways that capitalism imposes class warfare on its people, and (2) how class warfare shapes the capitalist system's impact on employers and employees. Specific examples show (1) what kind of class struggle is involved in tariffs such as those imposed by Trump, (2) how inflation exemplifies class war, and (3) how unemployment reflects and includes class war. A question addressed throughout today's program is "Why establish and maintain an economic system that produces and reproduces class war across its history?"

“I think if I'm gonna be remembered some way, it's for the way I've served & helped others.” – Jim Marascio Seven-year-old Jim dreamed big — Notre Dame quarterback, Heisman, NFL Hall of Fame. But he grew up in Augusta, ME, where you chose something steady & respectable. His parents were educators; the path was predictable. So, when it came time for a career, accounting felt “right.” Until he looked around & thought, “I can't imagine working with these people for the rest of my life!” So, he pivoted — to Computer Science, to late nights, to challenges that made him feel alive. Then came the moment that set his trajectory: the CEO of a global media distributor handed him a mandate & a budget — build the entire digital music platform from scratch. No roadmap. No safety rails. Just overheating servers & a cliff-steep learning curve. Jim didn't say yes for glory.

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed: How chaos leads to both risks and opportunities What contributes to financial uncertainty? Maximizing lifestyle and financial security Locking in guarantees Key Takeaways: Political chaos leads to both risks and opportunities in investments, especially regarding annuities. Market volatility and potential government actions (like new cryptocurrency regulation) create financial uncertainty. Evaluate your age, health, and risk to maximize lifestyle and financial security. Locking in contractual guarantees such as lifetime income and principal protection helps prepare for uncertainties. "Political chaos equals opportunity for locking things in. For contractual guarantees. You have opportunity for lifetime income guarantees." — Stan The Annuity Man Connect with The Annuity Man: Website: http://theannuityman.com/ Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!
On Monday's Mark Levin Show, the Democrat Party government shutdown is the best evidence why the government should never, for example, take over our healthcare system. It's not controlled by Democrat politicians (senators) abusing the filibuster rule to blackmail the country and do as much damage to the economy as possible to further government control of the economy and leftwing political agendas. Also, the U.S. air traffic control system and TSA should be privatized. It's unacceptable that our air traffic could come to a halt because air traffic controllers wouldn't show up for work during the shutdown. Later, the media is ignorant for mischaracterizing the pardoning of 77 people involved in challenging the 2020 election results as an attempt to overturn them. Challenging elections is a longstanding legal right, dating back to John Adams' era, and includes demanding recounts, lobbying state officials like the Secretary of State, and submitting alternative slates of electors to the Archivist of the United States to preserve potential wins. These actions are neither obstructive nor criminal. Afterward, Rep Chip Roy, who's running for Attorney General of Texas, calls in and explains that Texas is under attack by a network of radical Marxists and Islamists seeking to seize it from America. The nation is rooted in Judeo-Christian principles, the Constitution, and Western civilization, which directly conflict with Sharia law. He also explains that Democrats are exposing their scheme by admitting Biden's temporary COVID subsidies are essential for Obamacare to function, as even the Washington Post acknowledges it was never affordable. Finally, Tucker Carlson platformed a guest who downplayed Christian persecution in Nigeria and had previously represented an accused Nigerian figure involved in targeting Christians.

If you're experiencing conviction about some sin, it's an evidence that God loves you.
Send us a textWhat if the entire logic of the gospel hinges on one daring claim: God made every nation from one man? We take you to Athens with Paul and walk through Acts 17 to show how he introduces the “unknown God” by starting at the beginning—creation, purpose, and the reality of a literal Adam. Not as a symbol or a myth, but as the historical foundation for why sin is universal and why the grace of the last Adam, Jesus Christ, is necessary and sufficient.Together, we explore why “one blood” dismantles the false hierarchies that evolutionary thinking has too often reinforced, and how Scripture gives a better, richer account of human dignity and unity. We address the rising tide of theistic evolution inside the church, the interpretive maneuvers it requires, and the hidden cost to the gospel's coherence when Adam and Eve are reduced to archetypes. Along the way, we contrast what science can brilliantly explain—how—with what only revelation can disclose—why. From the blind men and the elephant to Homer's Odyssey, from Genesis to Romans and Corinthians, we connect cultural touchpoints to biblical clarity.We also widen the lens: God not only creates humanity; He controls history. Nations rise and fall on His timetable; borders shift under His sovereign hand. That doesn't excuse apathy—it anchors our hope. If you've wrestled with origins, human purpose, or the tension between mainstream science and Scripture, this conversation offers a thoughtful path forward: trust the God who speaks, who made us from one, and who remakes us in Christ into a new, redeemed people.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves big questions, and leave a review with your take on Adam, origins, and the gospel.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk They frame Kirk’s death as a political assassination, comparing it to historical killings of JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and Martin Luther King Jr. The hosts emphasize concerns about political violence, the dangers of polarization, and left-wing reactions online. They highlight messages of unity from unexpected voices on the left, such as Cenk Uygur, while contrasting that with those celebrating Kirk’s death. Persecution of Christians in Nigeria Cruz details violence by Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa, citing statistics of tens of thousands of Christians killed and thousands of churches destroyed. He introduces the Nigeria Religious Freedom Accountability Act of 2025, which seeks to: Classify Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” for religious freedom. Keep Boko Haram and ISIS-West Africa labeled as terrorist groups. Sanction Nigerian officials complicit in persecution. The discussion connects this to broader issues of U.S. foreign policy, criticizing past administrations (especially Obama and Biden) for not doing enough to defend persecuted Christians. Tucker Carlson’s controversial statements Carlson’s remarks about offering condolences to Osama bin Laden’s family, questioning Hamas’s designation as a terrorist group, and sympathetic portrayals of Russia and Iran are strongly criticized. Cruz and Ferguson accuse Carlson of moral relativism, equating his views with those of progressive politicians like Ilhan Omar or Rashida Tlaib. They reaffirm that groups like Hamas, al-Qaeda, and ISIS are terrorist organizations, citing both U.S. and international designations as well as historical attacks.
