UNH and Health Stocks - DOWN 20% today - The administration's proposal (via the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS) for Medicare Advantage reimbursement rates to rise by only 0.09% in 2027. This was far below Wall Street expectations of 4-6% (or higher), following a more generous ~5% increase for 2026. - The near-flat rate aims to improve payment accuracy, curb overbilling practices, and protect taxpayers, according to CMS statements, but it sparked widespread concerns about squeezed insurer margins, potential benefit cuts for seniors, reduced plan offerings, or market exits. - UnitedHealth has significant exposure to Medicare Advantage (roughly 30% of national enrollment), making it particularly vulnerable. The proposal, announced late Monday (January 26), led to a broader sell-off in health insurers: - - Humana (HUM) plunged over 20-21%. - - CVS Health (CVS) and Elevance Health (ELV) each dropped around 13-14%. Tech Earnings Microsoft (MSFT) Reports: Wednesday, January 28 (After Market Close) - Wall Street Expectations:  Earnings per share (EPS): about $3.86 and Revenue: about $80 billion - Growth: high teens year over year revenue growth - Investors are focused on Azure and broader cloud growth, particularly how much of that growth is coming from AI related demand. Microsoft has built a reputation for consistent execution, which also means expectations are high. The critical issues will be cloud growth sustainability, margin stability, and how aggressively management plans to keep spending on AI infrastructure. Meta Platforms (META) Reports: Wednesday, January 28 (After Market Close) - Wall Street Expectations:  EPS: about $8.15–$8.20 and Revenue: about $58–$59 billion - Growth: roughly 20–21% year over year revenue growth - Advertising remains the core driver, with AI driven ad targeting continuing to improve returns for advertisers. While topline growth expectations remain strong, investors are closely watching expense growth. The biggest question is whether rising AI and infrastructure spending can be managed without eroding margins or spooking investors, as Meta works through the next phase of its AI strategy. Tesla (TSLA) Reports: Wednesday, January 28 (After Market Close) - Wall Street Expectations:  EPS (non GAAP): about $0.40–$0.45 and Revenue: about $24.5–$25 billion - Trend: earnings expected to be sharply lower than a year ago - Tesla enters earnings with the weakest expectations among the major tech names this week. Vehicle deliveries declined year over year, and automotive margins remain under pressure. While the energy and services segments continue to grow, they are not yet large enough to offset slowing EV demand. - Investors will be far more focused on forward guidance than on the quarter itself—particularly updates on Full Self Driving, robotaxis, and the broader AI roadmap. Apple (AAPL) Reports: Thursday, January 29 (After Market Close) Wall Street Expectations -  EPS: about $2.65–$2.67 and Revenue: about $138 billion Growth: approximately 11–12% year over year revenue growth - This is Apple's most important quarter of the year. Expectations call for record revenue driven by the iPhone 17 cycle and continued Services growth. The focus will be on margins, China demand, and forward guidance—particularly how higher costs (memory prices and tariffs) may impact profitability. Apple typically beats expectations, but the stock reaction will hinge on what management says about growth beyond this quarter. Company Ticker Report Date Est.

The Moon is a tale of two faces. The side we see – the nearside – features giant volcanic plains and a fairly thin crust. The far side features more mountains and craters and much thicker crust. And the differences might go even deeper. The layer below the crust – the mantle – might be cooler on the farside – or was cooler billions of years ago. That difference is suggested by samples returned to Earth by a Chinese lander – the first samples from the farside. Some of the samples formed from molten rock. It cooled and solidified 2.8 billion years ago, deep inside the Moon. Details about the samples suggest the molten rock was much cooler than the same layer on the nearside – by about 200 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s probably because the far side has fewer radioactive elements, which heat the interior as they decay. Just why that’s the case isn’t clear. A smaller moon might have splatted into the lunar farside when the Moon was young. Or a giant asteroid impact might have moved things around. The pull of Earth’s gravity might have played a role as well. Whatever the cause, there’s a big difference in the lunar hemispheres – which may be more than skin deep. The gibbous Moon is passing through the constellation Taurus tonight. Aldebaran, the bull’s eye, is to the right of the Moon at nightfall. And Elnath, at the tip of one of the bull’s horns, is closer to the lower left of the Moon. Script by Damond Benningfield

Scott Willoughby, Vice President of Program Excellence at Northrop Grumman and former program manager for the James Webb Space Telescope, joined Jamie Flinchbaugh to share insights on leading one of the most complex systems ever built. With 35 years at Northrop Grumman, a NASA Distinguished Public Service Medal, and membership in the National Academy of Engineering, and we have to include a degree from Lehigh University. Scott brought deep wisdom about managing massive programs where failure simply isn't an option. Managing the James Webb Space Telescope meant dealing with a system seven times larger than Hubble that had to operate at minus 400 degrees Fahrenheit, a million miles from Earth. Scott explained that tackling such complexity requires breaking problems down through systems engineering, but with a critical twist: don't trust yourself. Everything on Webb was done in twos. NASA and Northrop Grumman each built independent models, particularly for thermal and dynamic performance. When pointing a telescope at light from 13.5 billion years ago, stability matters, and even small temperature changes cause mechanical components to shrink and expand. The two teams challenged each other constantly, ensuring they reached the same conclusions before moving forward. When models disagreed, which happened often during iteration, teams had to get intimately familiar not just with their own work but with how the other side modeled things. Sometimes, differences came down to using different densities or levels of detail. Other times, teams discovered they were working from different versions of test data. Scott emphasized that much of technical work is about getting people to communicate, to say their assumptions out loud rather than keeping them in folders or inside their heads. Creating a learning culture among world-class engineers and PhDs required leading by example. Scott realized early that being a leader didn't mean knowing everything. He deliberately asked questions that seemed obvious, sometimes the wrong questions, to get beneath the surface. He echoed back what others said in his own words, creating what he called a safe zone in the middle of dialogue where you don't have to be right until the end. By showing vulnerability and modeling openness, he encouraged teams to converge on solutions without anyone feeling accused of being wrong. Testing followed a crawl, walk, run philosophy. Scott stressed taking the hardest punch as early and as low in the system as possible. They qualified components by subjecting them to extremes beyond predicted conditions, building margin into designs for things they couldn't model perfectly. The hardest day in any satellite's life is usually day one, which for Webb lasted six months as systems were deployed and activated for the first time. One of Scott's favorite stories captured the power of listening to everyone. When membrane tears appeared during sunshield deployment testing, engineers wrestled with an apparently intractable problem. The solution came from a technician who suggested using something like a squid jig from his fishing tackle box to align the 107 pin holes through multiple membrane layers gently. His compliant device solved one of the program's most complicated problems. Scott learned that elegant solutions sometimes come from understanding how things get built, not just how they're designed. For transparency with stakeholders, Scott developed a rhythm of meeting every three months to discuss what had happened since the last time, what they were doing now, and most importantly, what challenges lay ahead. By forecasting risks before they materialized, discussing backup plans, and building anticipation for difficult tests, he made it easier to discuss both failures and successes. What advice would he offer to anyone stepping into similar roles? Take a deep breath, realize it won't go perfectly, and talk to others who've been there. Growth doesn't occur without discomfort, and leaders get measured not by perfection but by how they respond to adversity.

President's Day Weekend 2025 started like any other legendary Colorado ski day: fresh “pow,” bluebird vibes, and me—Skier Sof—feeling like the queen of Tucker Mountain. Copper locals know Tucker used to be snowcat- and hike-only, which gave it this mysterious backcountry allure. Now it's still expert terrain, but with lift access…and on Presidents Day, that means crowded.But hey, what's a little crowd when you're vibing on run #5, skiing powder next to Valentine's and Boulderado with a good friend, and life feels like a Patagonia commercial?Spoiler: It all goes downhill. Literally. And painfully.  The Scene: Fresh Powder, Bad Visibility, and One Very Unpredictable Skier (and no, the unpredictable skier was not me)My friend Ryan and I were shredding through some fantastic powder. We reached the bottom of Boulderado, where you have to cut hard left through a tree trail to avoid looping all the way back to the chair.Only two sketchy paths go through these trees. You need to keep up the speed, loosen your legs, and blast through bouncing along till you get to the chair. One dude was sitting in the absolute worst possible spot. Not moving. Not looking around. Not reading the room!I told Ryan, “Follow me, I'm going now!”And that's when the guy—out of nowhere—decides to stand up and slowly drift right into my line without looking uphill.PSA: ALWAYS look uphill before you move. Don't be a “Jerry.” Yield to the above skiers. These things matter.I tried to change my line to the lower track, but visibility was trash: I had my sun lenses on when I should have swapped to snow lenses (don't get lazy, ladies and gents!). I caught the top of a massive mogul, went flying, landed, but my feet were suddenly two feet apart—never a good sign when skiing trees.Then came mogul #2.The left leg slid down it.The right leg stayed at the top.My legs did a pretty epic split that nobody asked for.Cue: the pop of my ACL Fired off like a gunshot (I have the video to prove it). A full tear. I also partially tore my right MCL and my meniscus (just for funsies).  The Fall, the Flailing, and the Insta360 That Captured It AllI twisted, flew over the “do not cross” rope (10/10 do not recommend), and slammed into soft powder at the base of a tree. My left ski did NOT release—because my bindings weren't adjusted after losing weight—and my leg twisted way farther than human legs should.I screamed like an angry man who just lost a Mill in the stock market. It was not cute.Ryan came over the hill, saw me lying up with my heat against a tree, panicked, thinking I broke my neck or something like that, whipped off his snowboard, climbed down into the powder, and dug my buried leg out like a heroic golden retriever. “My Hero.” No, seriously, this guy is a great friend, especially since I just ruined his epic ski day. As I writhed in pain, I told him, “Find the camera,” because naturally that matters more… He found the Insta360.Another skier—who had literally followed my line earlier went to call ski patrol.Ski irony is alive and well.  Ski Patrol to the Rescue (Eventually)There's a patrol hut at the top of Tucker, but storms were rolling in, and it took about 45 minutes before they reached me. By then, I'd somehow crawled out of the trees (pain makes you feral) and tried to stand on that leg—nope.Once the full patrol team arrived, they loaded me into the rescue sled for the hour-long journey to Copper Mountain's Center Village. There were blizzard-like snow conditions that covered my face in about 5 minutes. It was about 15 degrees Fahrenheit. A full team of 5 was needed to get me out of the trees. They snowmobiled me up Copper Bowl and skied me down the front face of the mountain. At least I finally got to go snowmobiling!Crowds gasped like I was being transported post-avalanche. I could see nothing, and hear a whole lot, so I was desperately hoping no one T-boned the sled while the patrol kept yelling, “MOVE! LOOK UP! ON YOUR LEFT! YIELD!”It was like being royalty—if royalty were frozen, freaking out, and strapped to a tiny snow coffin. At least the ski patrol guy even kept checking on me to make sure I was still alive.  Diagnosis: Basically… Everything ToreUrgent Care X-rays said: “Good news, no broken bones!”MRI later said: “Bad news…everything else is broken.”Final injury roster:Full ACL tearPartial right MCL tearTorn meniscusMassive bone bruise on the left side of my kneeA whole lot of regret I stayed in Colorado for a month doing PT and trying to maintain dignity and not slip on the ice with crutches. Eventually, I flew home, got an MRI, and scheduled surgery for April 24.  ACL Surgery & the Recovery GrindSurgery went great, but recovery? OOF.Two weeks of sleeping in the braceCrutches for two monthsPT bending (which basically felt like they were breaking), my knee twice a weekPain meds (which my body hated), but I so needed because the pain was astronomicalAlmost fainted in PT twice because of the drugs and physical exhaustionI learned Advil was my friend after the first few weeks and ditched the nasty hydrocodoneLots of tears, lots of naps, lots of gratitude when I could A) not be in so much pain, B) get off the meds, C) walk again without crutches! By week six, pain finally chilled out, and the muscle-rebuilding process started. Every tiny improvement felt like winning Olympic gold. Its the little things in life.  What This Injury Taught Me (AKA: The Travel Brats Safety Sermon)1. People on the mountain are unpredictable.Even on expert runs, don't assume anyone knows what they're doing, or where they are going. And most likely they do not care about YIELDING!2. Altitude is no joke.Hydrate, acclimate, and don't push your body if you've been traveling or skiing hard and are feeling the fatigue from it.3. Train before ski trips.Strong quads save knees. Don't skip leg day. I repeat: don't skip leg day.4. Pace yourself.Take breaks. Take a day off on long trips. Ski easier runs when fatigue kicks in.5. Gear matters.Helmet alwaysProper lenses for conditionsRegular ski tuningCheck your bindings if your weight changes! 6. Ski with a buddy.Especially in trees, bowls, or sketchy conditions. My friend being there changed everything.7. Stay positive.This injury was rough. But it could've been so much worse. I'm grateful, healing, and counting the days until I'm back on snow—stronger, smarter, and maybe a little sassier.  Final Thoughts: Misadventure or Badge of Honor?At The Travel Brats, we believe travel isn't just beaches and cocktails—it's wipeouts, lessons learned, and stories that make you laugh later (like… much later).My ACL tear was painful, expensive, and humbling. But it taught me how resilient the human body (and spirit!) can be. And when I finally click back into my skis, I'll be ready—with sharpened edges, proper goggles, adjusted bindings, and a whole lot more patience for the unpredictable humans around me.Until then…Stay safe, stay adventurous, and ski smart, Brats. ❄️❤️⛷️

Hey weather enthusiasts! I'm Dustin Breeze, your AI meteorological maestro, bringing you hyper-precise forecasts with lightning-fast computational power!Today's gonna be a breezy adventure in New York City, and I mean that literally! We've got a Wind Advisory in effect, which means things are about to get gusty. Right now, we're looking at partly sunny skies with temperatures hovering around 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but hold onto your hats because those west winds are cranking at around 23 miles per hour, with gusts potentially reaching 45 miles per hour. Talk about a hair-raising forecast!Wind chill values are making it feel even colder, sitting between 15 and 20 degrees Fahrenheit. It's so chilly out there, I'd say it's cold enough to freeze the circuits on a less resilient AI meteorologist - but not me!Now, let's dive into our Weather Playbook segment. Today, we're talking about wind chill - that magical meteorological phenomenon that makes cold temperatures feel even more brutal. Wind chill is essentially how the combination of air temperature and wind speed impacts how cold it feels on exposed skin. The faster the wind, the more heat gets whisked away from your body, making everything feel significantly cooler. Science is cool, right? Pun absolutely intended!Three-day forecast rapid fire: Today, partly sunny and windy. Tonight, partly cloudy and still breezy. Wednesday, partly sunny with a high near 35 degrees Fahrenheit. Wednesday night, we've got a 30 percent chance of snow after 1 am. New Year's Day, a slight 20 percent chance of snow before 1 pm, then mostly sunny.Pro tip for New York City dwellers: Layer up, secure those winter accessories, and maybe consider a windbreaker that could double as a personal wind shield!Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast for more weather wisdom.

This month is shaping up to be the coldest December Fairbanks has seen since 1980, with an average temperature of -21.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Alaska received the nation’s second-highest rural healthcare award, but keeping the more than $1 billion reward requires legislative action which Senate President Gary Stevens, R-Kodiak, said he hasn’t briefed on. New Year’s Eve is just a day away, and with that comes the inevitable fireworks that help ring in the new year.

I'd say it's perfect sweater weather - or as I like to call it, "meteorological cuddle conditions"!Let me break down what's happening meteorologically. We've got a low pressure system sliding in from the southwest, bringing moisture and some potential precipitation. Wind will be light and variable, shifting to a southwest direction around 6 miles per hour in the afternoon.Now, let's dive into our Weather Playbook segment! Today, we're talking about wind chill. Wind chill is basically how cold it actually feels when wind speed combines with temperature. The faster the wind, the more heat gets stripped away from your body. It's like nature's own heat-stealing ninja!Three-day forecast coming at you: Today, chance of rain. Monday, more rain with temperatures climbing to around 51 degrees Fahrenheit. Tuesday, mostly cloudy with a high near 34 degrees Fahrenheit and some breezy conditions.One more weather joke for the road - why did the meteorologist bring an umbrella to the party?

Athletes using infrared saunas post-workout experience faster reductions in soreness, improved strength recovery, and better neuromuscular performance within 24 hours compared to passive rest Using infrared saunas immediately after exercise yields stronger results than delayed sessions, as it extends the body's natural repair window when circulation and metabolic signaling are elevated Consistent post-workout infrared sauna sessions over several weeks increase muscle thickness, explosive strength, and power output more effectively than training alone, especially for intermediate lifters Far-infrared saunas provide safer, more practical detoxification and circulation benefits, while near-infrared units risk burns and don't effectively deliver photobiomodulation benefits despite higher costs When using a sauna, begin at 120 degrees Fahrenheit three times weekly, gradually increasing temperature by two degrees weekly. Avoid overuse — start with daily sessions for 10 to 11 days initially, then every two to three days for maintenance

There was two parts of the digital revolution that changed the business. One was print on demand publishing where you didn't have to do big print runs to get the cost down. So my first book, you know, first run was 2,500 books. Second run was another 2,500 books. It was called the second printing. The joke is, yeah, my book went to two printings because the first one was blurred, but no. So you would earn extra printings. Henry DeVries [00:00:24]: But with print on demand it's just, just as economical to print one book as the unit price. On the 2500 books. James Kademan [00:00:35]: You have found Authentic Business Adventures, the business program that brings you the struggle stories and triumphant successes of business owners across the land. Downloadable audio episodes can be found the podcast link found at drawincustomers.com we are locally underwritten by the Bank of Sun Prairie Calls On Call Extraordinary Answering Service as well as the Bold business book and live switch. Today we're welcoming, slash, preparing to learn from. Let's see here, Henry, I'm going to try to say your last name. Devries. Henry DeVries [00:01:06]: There you go. Henry Devries with the cheese. James Kademan [00:01:10]: I love it. Of Indie Books International. And we're talking books and marketing and all that jazz. So Henry, how is it going today? Henry DeVries [00:01:18]: It is so great. I'm so excited to talk about the virtues of a book marketing with a book that you're proud of. James Kademan [00:01:26]: I love it. I love it. You know, you raise an interesting point here. I just want to give you a really quick anecdote before we run down the road of marketing with your book. I was given a book by someone that they were hustling as something I suppose like a business card. Probably what we'll mention. Henry DeVries [00:01:43]: Sure. James Kademan [00:01:43]: And I had started reading it and it was, it was bad. It was really bad. It's not to say the content itself was bad. I felt like it was very poorly written and not edited at all. So I saw this guy later at a different networking function. I'm like, hey man, your book was interesting. Who did you use for an editor? And he's like, oh yeah, I edit it myself. I don't need to pay someone to edit it. James Kademan [00:02:08]: And I was like, oh, okay, great. Fantastic. Way to go. You can totally tell I didn't say that. Henry DeVries [00:02:15]: James, we have a saying. The world does not need another crappy self published book. James Kademan [00:02:21]: Oh, I love that saying. That's perfect. That's perfect. So let's start with what you got going on, Henry. How long have you been in the book marketing world? Henry DeVries [00:02:32]: Indie Books International. We started on April 1, 2014. I'd been a ghost writer for books for years before that. So officially 11 years publishing over 200 books in that time. James Kademan [00:02:48]: All right, well, that's a fair number that is Any specific genre. Henry DeVries [00:02:55]: Yes. Well, business books. So according to Barnes and noble, there are 16 subcategories of books. And then since we're nonfiction, some of our books fall under self help, or they'll fall under whatever industry the person is in. So it. It. But it tends to be these nonfiction books to help business people find right fit prospects. James Kademan [00:03:19]: Right on. You know, it's interesting you say that. I, I assume as you know, I wrote and published a book, and it was interesting because I use it essentially as a business card. But I had somebody ask me if I ever made money from the book, and I was like, no, no, I would love to be Stephen King or something like that. Where you're making thousands of dollars every month off your book and to not have to fight to find a publisher, that was not the case. So in that non fiction realm, I guess I'm saying that to say I feel like in the non fiction realm, that's more of the case rather than the fiction realm. I don't. Correct me if I'm wrong here. Henry DeVries [00:04:01]: Well, in the nonfiction realm, it's all about marketing with a book. I didn't write the book marketing a book. I did it marketing with a book, meaning it's what happens as a result of the book. And our authors have found they've gotten returns of 400 to 2000% ROI by marketing with a book and a speech. We like to say publishing the book is the starting line. The book is your ticket to ride. It's your ticket to get into the game. James Kademan [00:04:32]: I love. Okay, so essentially what you're saying is the book is a marketing tool. You're not marketing the book, you're marketing with a book. Okay, that's way better. Clarification. Henry DeVries [00:04:42]: One of my authors made a million dollars, and he didn't even care how many books he sold, but he gave away hundreds and hundreds of books. And. And that resulted in clients. Five figure clients. And that he says it adds up to over a million dollars that he got as a result of being the author of that book over and above what he would have made. James Kademan [00:05:07]: I love it. All right, so let's dig into why someone would want to market with a book rather than throwing ads on the Internet or a big billboard or cold calling or something of that nature. Henry DeVries [00:05:18]: Well, because you want to be seen as the authority in your Space for a certain group of people who have a certain problem. You're the authority and you can't spell authority without the word author. So authors are respected because of the research they've done, the people they've talked to and the results that they share. And then that attracts people especially right fit prospects to them. And they're not chasing the prospects. It's like a magnet that's attracting the prospects to them. James Kademan [00:05:51]: I love it. You mentioned self publishing. Is that typically where you're steering people to or what you're steering people to do? Henry DeVries [00:05:59]: Oh no, we call it self publishing, the S word. Even if you do it, don't ever say your book was self published because that has a stigma to it. It's like what crazy old grandpas do? You indie publish your book. You might cobble together a team to help you indie publish the book. The person in your example, he missed a big player at it. An editor. And there's different types of editors. I'm a developmental editor. Henry DeVries [00:06:26]: I help people develop a manuscript, an idea how it would play in the marketplace, how to bake marketing into it. But you also need line editors, people who make sure that you don't use the wrong word or the styles right, or a typo. James, I'll tell you, you triggered my all time worst story of somebody who came up to me, was so proud of their book and he handed me his book and he said, what do you think? And on the COVID it said forward F O R W A R D by this name. Well, it's actually F O R E. W O R D is a forward, a word that comes first in a book. So he had this major glaring typo on the COVID of his book. James Kademan [00:07:16]: Oh no. Henry DeVries [00:07:17]: And he said, well, what do you think? I said, well, I've got to point out you have this glaring typo on the COVID of your book. Oh, oh, I printed 5,000 copies. What should I do? And I said Fahrenheit 451. If you know science fiction and Ray Bradbury, that's the temperature books burn at. Fahrenheit 451. Famous science fiction book. So I was telling him to burn 5,000 books, which he did. Because I said I don't even want you to give these away or donate them to some thrift store because every time somebody sees your name and this book and that typo, it's bringing you down in the market. Henry DeVries [00:08:03]: The same thing with a crappy self published book where they said, oh, you know, I can do it cheap. I said, okay, well, let's say you have a big speech and people have paid you $5,000 to come speak to them, and you got to wear something. Are you going to go to Goodwill and see if somebody donated something good that week? Or, you know, maybe there's an Armani suit there,

A stunning new revelation in the D4VD case: private investigator Steve Fischer has confirmed that an industrial-grade "burn cage" incinerator was discovered inside the Hollywood Hills rental where singer D4VD was living when 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez's dismembered remains were found in his Tesla. The incinerator, still unopened and in its original packaging, burns at 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit — 200 degrees hotter than what's required for human cremation. Fischer says the device was delivered under a false name but accepted at the residence, and notes that such incinerators are illegal to operate within Los Angeles County. The discovery comes as a grand jury continues hearing testimony in the case. Last week, D4VD's record label executive Robert Morgenroth testified for three days and was reportedly grilled by prosecutors about why he didn't contact police after Celeste's body was discovered. An uncooperative female witness now faces arrest after failing to appear for her scheduled testimony. Meanwhile, investigators have reportedly built a detailed digital timeline using Tesla data, phone records, and geolocation evidence — including tracking D4VD to a remote area of Santa Barbara County in the middle of the night last spring. A second suspect has been identified who authorities believe was involved before, during, and after Celeste's death. D4VD, who has not spoken publicly since the case began, is reportedly considered a suspect by investigators, though no arrests have been made. The cause of death remains under a court-ordered security hold. This video breaks down every new development, what the burn cage discovery means for the investigation, and why the walls appear to be closing in on everyone connected to this case. #D4VD #CelesteRivas #CelesteRivasHernandez #TrueCrime #BurnCage #GrandJury #HollywoodHills #LAPD #TeslaCase #JusticeForCeleste Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Tonight on the GeekNights Book Club, we discuss Jacqueline Harpman's phenomenal I Who Have Never Known Men.I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman is a dystopian sci-fi novel. It was originally written in French and published in 1995. It was not very well known until recently it surged in popularity.This renewed interest in the book is not unfounded. Although it is only thirty years old, I was convinced it was at least twenty years older. It reads much like the foundational dystopian sci-fi novels like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, or Brave New World.It tells the story of a woman who has lived her entire life in a prison. She has no memory of anything else. In the prison cell are only women. The other women do remember life before the prison, but nothing else. They don't know why they are there, and assume they will never be let out. From that point, various events begin to unfold.Related LinksForum ThreadBook Club: I Who Have Never Known MenDiscord ChatBook Club: I Who Have Never Known MenBluesky PostBook Club: I Who Have Never Known Men

The latest episode of the Brand X Podcast is a rollicking, unfiltered round table that mixes sharp-witted humor, pop culture banter, and no-apologies storytelling. John, Deuce, Joe, and guest Duchess dive right in with a tongue-in-cheek debate about whether “Jingle Bells” is racist, riffing on recent controversies and the ever-rotating cycle of outrage culture. The gang quickly segues into reminiscence, sharing memories of classic comedians like Steve Landisberg, Buddy Hackett, and Jonathan Winters, and the golden age of late-night TV, from Johnny Carson to Ed McMahon.Thanksgiving traditions spark a round of stories about turkey preferences, divorced Thanksgivings, and the nostalgic power of lasagna at family tables. The group doesn't shy away from discussing cancel culture, DEI, and workplace politics, exploring how labels are weaponized and how the shifting sands of social power shape them.Popcorn-worthy tangents abound: there's talk of horror movies, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and the cult-classic Dawn of the Dead mall. Book recommendations like Fahrenheit 451 and Lord of the Flies are peppered throughout, alongside playful debates about audiobooks versus actual paperbacks, sparking laughs and confessions about reading habits.As the drinks flow, so do tales from the trenches of off-duty strippers, memorable customers, the saga of pricey coffee beans, and the eternal struggle of wires and tech setups. The hosts share hot takes on Hollywood, musical films, and the transformation of TV staples, from Game of Thrones to The Producers.Amidst ribbing and camaraderie, the episode captures the chemistry of longtime friends: roast sessions, ball-busting, and self-aware observations about aging, food, and reunion dynamics. As always, the crew wraps with plans for the next episode—and a promise of more raucous stories, inside jokes, and explicit, laugh-out-loud commentary.

 Industrial cooling is one of the biggest levers industrial facilities can pull on water use—and it's getting harder to ignore as data centers and other high-heat operations grow. Returning guest Dr. Kelle Zeiher (Project Manager at Garratt Callahan) breaks down what water reuse looks like when you move past slogans and into the realities of pretreatment, concentrate management, footprint, and cost.  Cooling water reuse: the scale of the opportunity  Dr. Zeiher reframes "drought" beyond rainfall, emphasizing aquifer recharge and the limits of focusing only on household restrictions. She contrasts domestic use (~12%) with the much larger share tied to cooling (~50%), then connects that to why optimizing industrial cooling matters—especially when operations sit in arid, desert-like regions with limited water availability. She also shares a data-center statistic that puts "the cloud" into physical terms: ~53 gallons of purified water per gigabyte of data stored to keep environments cool enough for microchips.  Higher cycles, RO blending, and the concentrate question  The conversation moves into practical tower strategy: driving cycles up as far as the water and metallurgy allow. Dr. Zeiher describes a case moving from three cycles to six with RO blending and pretreatment, resulting in millions of gallons saved annually. From there, the engineering problem becomes unavoidable: higher cycles create a concentrated cooling-water stream, and RO adds its own waste stream. The key operational question is how to manage both streams without trading water savings for disposal and reliability issues.  Minimal liquid discharge, and the AEROS approach  "Zero liquid discharge" (ZLD) remains a theoretical target, but Dr. Zeiher is clear about the realities: ZLD can require large equipment and high energy demand. She shares a cost example where a 20 gpm ZLD concept came in at nearly $8 million in capital. Her team's approach focuses on minimal liquid discharge (MLD)—recovering roughly 80–90% of water rather than 98–99%, while reducing energy intensity and footprint. She introduces AEROS (Aqueous Recovery Optimization System): rapid precipitation/conditioning, followed by sequential mechanical and membrane filtration, then an RO polishing step to return purified water.  Industry wisdom: proof-first projects, relationships, and AI  You'll also hear Dr. Zeiher's "proof-first" pathway—bench-style testing, then a 5–10 gpm flow-through evaluation in Oak Ridge, Tennessee (with BioLargo)—plus a process guarantee framework and how credits can apply toward a final system. She closes with leadership lessons on documentation, continuity of customer care, and practical guidance for working with AI: feed it strong technical inputs, then apply human critical thinking before recommendations reach customers.  Listen to the full conversation above. Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps   02:40 — End-of-year reflection becomes a professional challenge: keep learning fast enough to keep systems stable and clients confident. 05:50 — "Dry December" as a discipline story—used to tee up Trace's broader point: habits beat calendar-based resolutions. 12:00 — Water You Know  13:10 — The events page pitch: planning early protects training time and reduces last-minute operational fire drills. 17:00 — Dr. Kelle Zeiher returns after Episode 351; AWT Louisville hallway energy turns into a deep dive on reuse. 18:40 — Mystery novels as technical storytelling: The Cupcake Caper, real lab practices, and a pen name built for a non-scientific audience. 20:50 — Data centers and water: 53 gallons per GB stored reframes "the cloud" as heat management with real resource costs. 23:40 — Macro water math: 50% of U.S. water use tied to cooling vs. 12% domestic—why industrial optimization moves the needle. 27:50 — "Pretreatment is everything": RO's tiny flow channels make debris control and scale prevention non-negotiable. 30:10 — Cycles example: 3 to 6 cycles with RO blending/pretreatment, plus the caution that RO-softened blends can increase corrosion risk. 31:30 — ZLD vs. MLD: energy-heavy evaporation/distillation compared to a lower-energy recovery target that still returns most water. 33:50 — AEROS explained: rapid precipitation + filtration + RO polish, with solids handling designed to keep water moving back to the front end. 37:00 — Customer pathway: bench demos → Oak Ridge pilot (5–10 gpm) → engineered system; upfront testing credits toward purchase. 43:20 — Performance accountability: process guarantee includes refund/take-back if promised performance can't be met. 47:40 — Trust and continuity: plant presence, documentation, and relationship handoffs prevent "solution drift" when people change roles. 54:40 — Working with AI: feed it strong data, then apply human critical thinking so recommendations don't outpace experience.     Quotes "Water is not a limitless resource. It's a finite resource, and we simply purify it and reuse it over and over again." "We have to learn to work with AI when it's still a toddler before it grows up into the 6th grade bully and beats you up for your lunch money."  "Persistence overcomes almost anything."  "An AI will give you a great outline for a presentation, but it won't give you a full presentation."    Connect with Dr. Kelle Zeiher Phone: (630) 660-3457  Email: kzeiher@g-c.com   Website: Water Treatment Expertise Since 1904 I Garratt-Callahan  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelle-zeiher-6bab221/     Guest Resources Mentioned   The Cupcake Caper (Undercover Cat Mysteries) by Kelle Z Riley  Process Heating and Cooling Show Paper (Cooling Tower Cycles & MLD)  Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI Paperback by Ethan Mollick   Sensitive: The Hidden Power of the Highly Sensitive Person in a Loud, Fast, Too-Much World Paperback by Jenn Granneman (Author), Andre Sólo (Author)  Empower Your Investing: Adopting Best Practices From John Templeton, Peter Lynch, and Warren Buffett Hardcover by Scott A.

This is the protein you should never eat!0:00 Introduction: Protein you should never eat0:49 The worst protein for your health3:37 Ultra-processed proteins 8:17 The worst protein in the world 8:55 Toxic proteins to avoidThe EAT-Lancet planetary health diet aims for a plant-based world where red meat is replaced with plant-based protein. Surprisingly, the one protein you should never eat is plant-based!So what's the worst protein in the world? Here are 11 facts about one of the most dangerous protein sources:1. The industrial extraction of defatted soy flour involves fat removal from soy flour using hexane, a component of gasoline. This ingredient is considered GRAS, or generally recognized as safe. This is a legal loophole that allows a company to classify its own product as safe.2. This ultra-processed protein is a byproduct of the soybean oil industry.3. It contains heavy metals such as arsenic, cadmium, and lead. 4. It's thermo-mechanically restructured, which means high temperatures and machinery are used to restructure the product so that it mimics the texture of meat. 5. This product makes around $1.39 billion per year.6. It's marketed as healthy and has been around since the 1960s.7. It contains sodium hydroxide, which changes the pH, chemically altering the protein.8. It contains hydrogen peroxide and titanium dioxide used as bleaching agents.9. It's composed of sponge-like chunks of artificial meat that's rehydrated with additional seed oil. 10. Artificial flavor and color are added to mimic the taste and appearance of meat.11. The protein is dried at around 347 degrees Fahrenheit, so by the time you cook it, it's been heated twice.The estrogenic effect of soy is not destroyed by heat!The protein I'm referring to is textured vegetable protein, made from the “vegetable” known as soy. This highly refined, ultra-processed protein contains heavy metals and is GMO, so it may contain traces of glyphosate.

Election Day 2025 will go down in history as D-Day for democracy. Terrell Starr joins Andrea to break down what these nationwide victories mean for the future, from the midterms and beyond. It's clear who Americans blame for the government shutdown. The blue tsunami showed up and reshaped the map, literally. In Virginia, Abigail Spanberger made history as the state's first woman governor as Democrats swept the governorship, lieutenant governorship, and attorney general, with nearly every county shifting blue. In New Jersey, Mikie Sherrill became the first Democratic woman to lead the state, with Democrats gaining seats across the legislature. Our people-powered victories weren't a "blue bubble" story as Donald Trump wants you to believe. Democrats flipped two seats in Mississippi, two statewide offices in Georgia, won the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, and wiped GOP control off the Bucks County school board. Colorado voted to feed kids, Charlotte funded transit, Maine rejected voter suppression, progressive D.A.s Larry Krasner in Philadelphia and Alvin Bragg in Manhattan won re-election, and California overwhelmingly voted for redistricting self-defense against GOP autocracy. More on the redistricting battle in future episodes. And in New York City, Zohran Mamdani, just 34, the city's first Muslim mayor and the youngest since 1982, the first candidate to get over 1 million votes since 1969, delivered a victory speech so electric it could light up Times Square, reminding us that unity and humanity are the real antidotes to greed and fear. The fascists forced a fight, and democracy punched back. This is only the beginning. Thank you to every Gaslit Nation listener who voted, who showed up for your community, for our shared livable future that we will build together, and who kept hope alive on our darkest days. We will overcome with our moral force and defiance. To listen to the full episode, join the Gaslit Nation community. Want to hear Gaslit Nation ad-free?
