Many Reasons Are Given. There are many suppositions of why people go to hell. Included are reasons such as – they are not chosen by God. Unfortunately, they have committed just too many sins. These people also forgot to repent of their sins. Many times they forgot to read or even ignored the instructions to read God's word, the Holy Bible. Perhaps they have committed the unforgivable sin. They were never regular church attenders. Some of them have even gambled the family's money away. Their children went hungry because they drank too much strong drink or got high on drugs just once too often. Faulty thinking makes the list grow even longer. Most of those things quoted above are not good but they are not the main and only reason, why!
24.05.26 Faulty by default [Misu] by Maretul Har UK
In this candid team meeting, Bryan — a founder of Kalos Services and a veteran of residential HVAC — gathers his install crew to have an honest conversation about what goes wrong on the job. With summer around the corner and the workload about to spike, Bryan circles back to his roots in residential HVAC to lead a round-table discussion on the pain points his technicians face every single day. Rather than pointing fingers, he opens the floor for every team member to voice the specific frustrations that slow down their installs, and what emerges is a surprisingly consistent list: size and clearance problems, missing small materials, incomplete job photos, and last-minute schedule changes that leave crews scrambling before they even pull out of the shop. Bryan draws on his own humble origins as a one-man operation hauling equipment on a Gladiator trailer — doing installs, service calls, and waste runs all in the same day — to remind his team that chaos is not inevitable; it is the byproduct of poor process. He is refreshingly self-aware, admitting that he was a very bad installer who routinely showed up with equipment that did not fit the space. That honesty sets the tone for the entire session: this is not a lecture about accountability, but a collaborative problem-solving conversation about building repeatable systems that prevent the same mistakes from happening over and over again. As Bryan frames it, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result — and right now, the team is living that cycle. The heart of the session focuses on a three-phase planning framework: what should be done the night before a job, what should happen at the shop before the crew leaves, and what needs to occur during the first 30 minutes on-site. Bryan emphasizes that skipping proper measurements and job photos should carry the same weight as failing an inspection or leaving a refrigerant leak — because the downstream cost is just as real. He breaks down the two categories of mistakes that are truly unacceptable for any installer: refrigerant leaks from improper brazing, and water leaks from poorly executed drain lines. No amount of clean workmanship makes up for either of those failures, and he walks the crew through the non-negotiable steps — pressure testing and bubble solution on every single joint — that prevent them. Bryan wraps up by tying individual preparation habits to the bigger picture of company growth. He acknowledges that last-minute installs and mid-job equipment runs may never fully disappear, but that investing 15 minutes the evening before and 30 minutes on arrival creates a compounding tipping point effect — over time, the crew gains back hours, reduces surprises, and frees up the time that matters most: commissioning the system properly. Checklists, he argues, are not about turning skilled tradespeople into robots; they are about transferring institutional knowledge to the next generation of technicians and ensuring that nothing critical gets overlooked, no matter how many times you have done the job before. Topics Covered Common install-day problems surfaced in a round-table with the install crew Equipment size and clearance issues — why measurements matter before the truck leaves the shop The critical role of detailed job photos in preventing on-site surprises Missing small materials (wire nuts, spray foam, surge protectors, breakers) and how to stock proactively Scope and de-scope review: aligning the proposal with the homeowner before work begins Bryan's three-phase planning framework: the night before, at the shop, and on arrival Why refrigerant leaks and drain-line failures are the two non-negotiable mistakes to eliminate Pressure testing and bubble solution as a standard, every-joint practice The role of checklists in training new technicians and preserving institutional knowledge Handling last-minute installs and the logistics of getting equipment to the job site Condenser access obstacles — bushes, parking, property layout — and how to communicate with homeowners Faulty or missing parts out of the box and strategies for catching them early Panel rework and surprise platform rebuilds: planning for the unexpected How improved preparation leads to better commissioning time at the end of every job Building a culture of process over blame — poor planning is a system problem, not a people problem Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

India’s poor air is driving much needed investment away from the country. Synopsis: The Straits Times’ senior columnist Ravi Velloor distils 45 years of experience covering the Asian continent, with expert guests. There was a time when China was thought to have the world’s most polluted cities. However, Beijing’s sustained efforts have overturned that situation. Instead, when the question of polluted cities comes up, eyes turn to India now. According to the noted Harvard economist Gita Gopinath, a former top IMF official, poor air quality is driving investment away from India and is causing more damage to its economy than US President Donald Trump’s tariffs. There is enough policy experience, and scientific knowledge, to mitigate the situation. Indeed, India has within itself some of the world’s best scientific brains. The question is whether it has the political will to take the right measures, including pricing essential services such as water appropriately to curb overuse and wastage. In this wide-ranging conversation, host Ravi Velloor speaks with Chandran Nair, the Malaysian-born, founder and CEO of Hongkong-based Global Institute for Tomorrow on how India could take cues from China to fix its foul air and water. Mr Nair, a biochemical engineer who in 1994, set up the first foreign environment consultancy in China. He is also a frequent traveller to China and India. He is also a sceptic of the consumption-based growth model that he says is causing irreparable damage to the environment.

Faulty goods and services top of list of concerns for Irish consumers in 2025, for fifth year in a row Average of over €6k spent on the product or service consumers contacted the CCPC about 61% of consumers surveyed contacted the trader five or more times while trying to resolve their issue. CCPC consumer helpline report 2025 Faulty goods and services topped the list of concerns for Irish consumers for the fifth consecutive year, according to the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission's (CCPC) 2025 Consumer Helpline Report (attached). The report details key statistics and insights from consumers who contacted the CCPC consumer helpline in 2025, as well as the most-named traders. 42,791 consumers contacted the helpline, mostly by phone, email and webform Consumers spent an average of €6,292 on the product or service that they had an issue with 10,297 consumers were referred to the Small Claims Court for redress The CCPC's free online Money Tools were used 647,483 times There was a significant increase in the number of consumers contacting CCPC about an online purchase, up by 14% since 2024. Issues with home building or improvements were also up – by 12% – since 2024 (2,838 consumers). The biggest call driver was issues with cars, with 5,827 contacts about vehicles. The top traders named by consumers contacting the helpline included Ryanair, Rathwood and Currys. Grainne Griffin, CCPC Director of Communications said: "Last year the CCPC helpline saw an increase in calls about online purchases. When shopping online in Ireland and the rest of the EU, consumers have strong rights, including the right to send goods back, as long as they inform the trader within 14 days. "One fifth of all contacts to our helpline in 2025 related to an issue with faulty goods and services. It's important that consumers know their rights if they buy something that turns out to be faulty. Regardless of whether you had a warranty or a guarantee, it's up to the seller to resolve your issue, you shouldn't have to go back to the manufacturer." Putting your rights to work In October 2025, the CCPC began following up with consumers who contacted the CCPC helpline to find out what happened next. The first check-in with consumers was a minimum of four weeks after they contacted the helpline. At that stage, 96% of consumers had contacted the trader. 43% of respondents had reached a resolution, with 38% of those receiving a refund from the trader. There were still challenges for consumers with 16% reporting that they incurred costs and 61% contacting the trader five or more times while trying to resolve their issue. Home improvement help 2,838 consumers contacted the CCPC helpline about home building or improvements, an increase of 12% since 2024. Consumers reported spending an average of €14,597 on home building or improvements that they later found issues with. In November 2025, the CCPC published an open letter to traders that provide home maintenance, construction and improvement services to remind them of their obligations under consumer protection law. Grainne Griffin said: "Home improvements can be costly for consumers, especially if things go wrong. Check the references of contractors and if you can, physically review previous jobs that they have done. Make sure you get a written quote rather than an estimate and sign a contract. Having those will give you stronger rights in the event of a problem. "Every year, issues with home building and improvements are one of the biggest call drivers to our helpline. That's why we wrote to traders last year with clear guidelines on their responsibilities to consumers. Where traders are not following the law, the CCPC can take enforcement action." Product safety concerns Last year, 1,261 consumers contacted the CCPC with product safety concerns, with one particular report to the CCPC helpline from a concerned parent leading to the recall of 1,564 baby socks due to injury concerns.

The scientific, ethical, and legal challenges surrounding facial recognition technology, specifically focusing on racial bias and misidentification. A technical research paper details how algorithmic accuracy fluctuates based on demographics and image quality, emphasizing that systemic errors often intensify as tasks become more difficult. This theoretical framework is punctuated by the real-world case of Angela Lipps, a Tennessee grandmother wrongfully imprisoned for months after an AI error linked her to a crime in North Dakota. Other documented cases, such as those involving Harvey Murphy Jr. and Rite Aid, further illustrate the severe human costs and legal liabilities resulting from unreliable biometric matches. Together, the texts advocate for stricter regulatory oversight, independent corroboration, and enhanced training to prevent technology from overriding due process.

On a humid Kentucky night in July 1994, Trent DiGiuro, a rising star on the University of Kentucky offensive line, was sitting on his front porch just three days away from his 21st birthday. Without warning, a single rifle shot rang out from the darkness 100 yards away. Trent was gone before his friends even realized what the sound was. For six years, the case remained one of Lexington's most haunting mysteries. The breakthrough didn't come from a forensic lab or a high-speed chase, but from a secret whispered in a bar and a woman who had the courage to wear a wire. In this episode of True Crimecast, John and Jamie explore the life of the "big teddy bear" who walked onto the UK team and the wealthy, privileged peer who allegedly could never forgive a social slight. --For early, ad free episodes and monthly exclusive bonus content, join our Patreon!

Stephen Grootes speaks to Trudie Broekmann, consumer law expert about the implications of the landmark Van Niekerk v FirstRand ruling, which has reshaped consumer rights in vehicle finance. The judgement establishes that banks financing car purchases are not just lenders but can be regarded as the sellers, meaning consumers can hold them accountable for defects or misrepresentation. The ruling has already had real-world impact, as seen in the case of Busisiwe Baloyi, who is now positioned to overturn a previous court order and seek a refund after returning a defective vehicle, marking a significant shift in legal protection for car buyers in South Africa.

“Convicted on a Glance? The Case of Kenyon Clinton and the Cost of Faulty Identification”In this episode of Turning A Moment Into A Movement, we examine the case of Kenyon Clinton, a Michigan man convicted in a case that relied heavily on eyewitness identification — despite significant concerns raised by experts about the reliability of that identification.Court records show that Mr. Clinton has pursued relief for years, raising claims related to mistaken identification, ineffective assistance of counsel, and constitutional violations. An independent eyewitness expert later identified multiple risk factors associated with misidentification, including a masked suspect, delayed identification, and potentially suggestive procedures.Mr. Clinton also submitted to a polygraph examination indicating no deception when denying involvement. Despite these efforts, he remains incarcerated.This live conversation will explore:The dangers of faulty eyewitness testimonyHow wrongful convictions persist despite new evidenceThe barriers to post-conviction reliefWhy accountability in criminal justice matters long after trialWe will break down the legal history, the evidence raised, and the broader systemic questions his case presents.This is part of our ongoing series, Accountability in Action, where we examine what justice looks like when systems are challenged to review themselves.Guest: Dion Riggen ElFounder: Free People Free people, Advocate for the Wrongfully Convicted, Over Sentenced and Mentally FrailTurning A Moment Into A Movement Podcast MISSION:To bring awareness, organize, and create content that will be a resource that will aide families, communities, and those seeking Justice for WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS and Injustice. ...and advocating for Justice & Exoneration for GERARD HAYCRAFT. www.change.org/Justice4Gerardhttps://linktr.ee/turningamomentintoa...Turning A Moment Ino A Moment Team:-Jay Love Host: Founder and Creator of Turning A Moment Into A Movement, The Justice for Gerard Movement, to learn more about The Justice for Gerard Movement go to: www.change.org/Justice4GerardExecutive Board member of Michigan Coalition of Human Rights, G100 Prison Reforms & Reintegration Global Advisory Council Member-Trische' Duckworth: Executive Director/Founder of Survivors Speak, Founder/ Lead Consultant of Value Black Lives, Social Worker, Justice Advocate, Board member of Michigan Coalition of Human Rights,https://www.survivorsspeak.info
Continuing with the series, In View of His Mercies, we look at Hosea 8 & 9 and Pastor Dustin Clegg points out 3 things fro the text that we have to talk about so we can be true to ourselves:1) A God we "know" who doesn't know us.2) Reaping whirlwinds. (8:7) a. We should expect to reap after we sow. b. We should expect to reap what we sow. c. We should expect to reap more than we sow.3) A Gospel too good to recognize. (8:12 & 9:7)How do we respond to this today?Acknowledge we become like the thing or person that we worship.
In view of the mercies of God....... Today we continue in our study of the book of Hosea and as we look at chapters 6 and 7, Pastor Dustin Clegg offers 3 observations:1) Faithful love, not religious emotion. (6:4-11)2) Faithful love of God always translates to faithful love of others. (7:1-7)3) Politically charged religion is not the same as faithful love of Jesus. (7:8-18)How do we respond?
Kiwirail had to carry out emergency overnight repairs after finding faulty track works by contractors.
Continuing with our study of the book of Hosea and in view of the mercies of God we look at Wrong Diagnoses and Faulty Cures. Pastor Dustin Clegg walks us through Hosea 4:1 - 6:3 and gives us 5 observations:1) Hosea presents the case God has against the people. Then he works backwards in describing the 3 offenses in chapters 4 - 13. (4:1)2) False priests and the way they operate. (Mainly 4:8)3) When we step away from the knowledge of God, we lose protection against idolatry. (4)4) Faulty cures...BUT... Hosea 6:1-35) We always have room for repentance as long as Jesus is pursuing us.
A debate recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival at Church House, Westminster on Saturday 18 October 2025. ORIGINAL FESTIVAL INTRODUCTION In recent years, Britain has been rocked by several scandals where the public has been kept in the dark. Politicians and the authorities have indulged in obfuscation, denial, cover-ups and even possible collusion – all to avoid accountability or admit responsibility. As with previous scandals, it's often been grassroots campaigners, victims' groups and courageous journalists who have brought these issues to public attention. What was it like being a key player on the frontline of history in three of these recent scandals: rape gangs, the Post Office miscarriages of justice and gender self-ID in Scotland? Journalists Charlie Peters and Nick Wallis, and Susan Smith from campaign group For Women Scotland, tell their stories of activism, investigation and holding truth to power. GB News reporter Charlie Peters, presenter of the 2023 documentary, Grooming Gangs: Britain's Shame, has called it ‘the worst race-hate scandal and abuse scandal since the Second World War'. Meanwhile, Conservative MP Nick Timothy, writing in response to Sir Keir Starmer's announcement that he would – at last – commission a national inquiry on the back of recommendations in Baroness Casey's National Audit on Group-based Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (2025), stated: ‘Rape gangs are the biggest scandal of our generation.' The Post Office Horizon IT scandal stands out as another one of the UK's most significant miscarriages of justice. Faulty accounting software developed by Fujitsu led to the Post Office prosecuting over 900 subpostmasters for theft, fraud or false accounting, resulting in wrongful convictions, bankruptcies, imprisonments and even suicides. Nick Wallis, a freelance journalist, broadcaster and author, has been one of the leading figures in exposing and chronicling the scandal. For Women Scotland (FWS) is a women's rights advocacy group that was set up in 2018 to oppose the SNP's attempts to force gender self-identification through Holyrood. Even when the Gender Recognition Reform Bill was blocked by the Tory UK government, the then first minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon, continued to defend the policy. In a car-crash press conference, she famously refused to say whether double-rapist Adam Graham/Isla Bryson, who was initially sent to a female jail, was a man or a woman. The scandal caused a huge public outcry and has been partially blamed for Sturgeon's sudden resignation a few months later. The furore also forged For Women Scotland into a formidable campaign group that eventually won a famous victory in clarifying equality law at the Supreme Court. These scandals are only three of the many that have shocked our nation, alongside the Grenfell Tower fire, the Hillsborough tragedy, the infected-blood scandal and more. Are such scandals simply a feature of modern Britain? Do they, as many argue, implicate the state itself as negligent, incompetent and mired in the tendency to cover-up and collude? What can we learn from these brave journalists and campaigners who have stood at the frontline, challenged politicians and the authorities, and held them to account? SPEAKERS Charlie Peters GB News national reporter Susan Smith co-director, For Women Scotland; director, Beira's Place; contributor, The Women Who Wouldn't Wheesht Nick Wallis journalist, presenter, BBC Radio 4 series The Great Post Office Trial CHAIR Claire Fox director, Academy of Ideas; independent peer, House of Lords; author, I STILL Find That Offensive!

Unbilled utilities don't scream.They whisper and slowly drain your NOI while no one's looking.In today's Multifamily Operations Tip of the Day, Mike Brewer unpacks a silent but costly threat in property management: unbilled utilities.It's one of the easiest ways to bleed margin — and most teams won't notice until it's too late. Faulty meter reads. Sloppy allocation. Gaps in billing during unit turns. It all adds up. And here's the kicker: AI is your best defense.AI can run a real-time audit of your utility billing processes, flagging mismatches between usage and charges the moment they happen. That's not just efficient. That's smart income protection.But it gets better. We're entering an era where AI doesn't just observe, but acts. Real-time prevention. Autonomous corrections. And in 2026 and beyond, a new acronym will lead the charge: IF. Fair and accurate utility billing isn't just about recouping costs. It builds trust, promotes conservation, and protects your NOI. Precision is no longer optional — it's table stakes.If you're ready to stop invisible losses and start using AI to protect your portfolio's bottom line, like this video, subscribe, and share your utility billing best practices in the comments.Support comes from: https://www.365connect.com/?utm_campaign=mmnHosted by: https://www.multifamilymedianetwork.comPlus: why in-person events like RETCON https://retconference.com/ matter more now than ever.

It's a confusing cycle—wanting deep intimacy yet stumbling over old shame and protective patterns that keep you at arm's length from those who matter most. The echoes of our early relationships can linger, quietly shaping the way we trust, open up, and even interpret simple gestures of kindness. Left unspoken and unexplored, these internal beliefs can create barriers to the very closeness we long for. In this episode, listeners are invited to take a compassionate look at how shame and childhood experiences impact our sense of self and our present-day relationships. Through real-life examples and insights from trauma and nervous system work, you'll discover why you might struggle with receiving care, how protective behaviors like people-pleasing or withdrawal develop, and, most importantly, how healing and repair are possible within intimate partnerships. The conversation offers practical tools for recognizing these patterns, slowing down your reactions, and using curiosity and acceptance to gently shift toward deeper connection—with yourself and with others. Dr. Arielle Schwartz is a licensed psychologist and a leading voice in the healing of trauma. She is an internationally sought-after teacher and award winning author of eight books including The Post-Traumatic Growth Guidebook, Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma, and Applied Polyvagal Theory in Yoga. As the founder of the Center for Resilience Informed Therapy, she offers a mind-body approach to therapy for trauma and informational mental health and wellness updates through her writing, public speaking, social media presence, and blog. She believes that the journey of trauma recovery is an awakening of the spiritual heart. Episode Highlights 06:17 Uncovering attachment wounds and realizing childhood patterns in adulthood. 08:41 How shame and unworthiness show up in everyday relationship gestures. 10:59 The deep impact of relational trauma on trust and receiving love. 13:44 Cycles of childhood rejection and their lasting influence in relationships. 17:04 Understanding neuroception: Faulty safety cues and couple dynamics. 23:04 Common protective behaviors that mask shame and hinder true connection. 26:02 How longing to be authentically seen often leads to frustration and anger. 27:46 Facing shame: The role of curiosity, acceptance, and turning toward pain. 34:33 How slowing down and identifying underlying feelings in moments of reactivity allows for more vulnerable communication and understanding between partners. 37:03 Accessing and soothing shame through parts work and somatic awareness. 41:04 The power of presence: Attending to shame somatically and non-judgmentally. 42:57 Supporting partners in their activation: Invitations, patience, and repair. Your Check List of Actions to Take Start noticing moments when you feel unworthy or defensive in relationships, and pause to reflect on what's being activated inside you. Practice slowing down your reactions, even if just for a few seconds, to bring curiosity rather than judgment to your responses. When you notice shame or discomfort, try labeling it as just one part of yourself—remind yourself it doesn't define your entire being. Invite more acceptance for uncomfortable feelings by turning toward them with compassion instead of pushing them away. If you're in a reactive moment with a loved one, communicate with phrases like, "Can I run something by you?" or "The story I'm telling myself is…" to clarify your experience. Focus on building body awareness—notice where you feel tension, contraction, or the urge to hide, and gently stay present with it. When you notice a protective behavior like people-pleasing or withdrawing, ask yourself what underlying need or emotion might be driving it. In heated moments with your partner, offer supportive choices like, "How can I best support you right now?" instead of jumping into problem-solving or fixing.

Blood panel tests don't tell you what's going on at the cellular level in your body, and they also won't tell you how the body's energetic system is working. Dr. Alphonzo Monzo, ND is a biblical naturopathic doctor and expert on the natural rhythms and processes of the human body. He discusses the realities of modern healthcare - its roots in the synthetic petroleum industry, big banking, and the active squelching of naturopathic solutions. Dr. Monzo outlines the top reasons why disease ravages the body: nutritional deficiencies, toxicity, mental and emotional stress or trauma, spiritual lifestyle, and the energy systems in the body. How well the terrain of the body is doing, determines how well the body does if it's hit with an infection, Dr. Monzo declares. Bring your body back into balance by focusing on basic health and nutrition!TAKEAWAYSThe body needs at least 90 essential nutrients to function properlyLooking for the ROOT cause of disease or inflammation is a hallmark of wholistic healthcareMost medications are based on petroleum products or fossil fuelsFederal regulatory agencies came together at the turn of the century to stifle wholistic healthcare and create the “modern medicine” market

Gottman's research shows 69% of issues are perpetual (Gottman Institute).

The way you breathe directly determines how efficiently your body stabilizes your core, aligns your spine, and generates strength during movement Coordinating your breath with each lift or motion activates deep core muscles, improving posture, balance, and injury prevention while keeping your nervous system calm and focused Faulty breathing habits such as chest breathing or breath-holding restrict oxygen flow, tighten neck and back muscles, and reduce your power output and endurance Breathing too deeply or too often disrupts the natural balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide (CO2), narrowing blood vessels and lowering brain oxygen levels — the opposite of what most people intend when they "breathe deeply" Relearning to breathe lightly, rhythmically, and through your nose retrains your diaphragm, balances your CO2 levels, and builds both physical strength and mental stability for lasting energy and control
CRISPR-based gene editing has revolutionized modern biology, but these tools are unable to access the DNA that resides inside mitochondria. Researchers are eager to access and edit this DNA to understand more about the energy production and the mutations that can cause incurable mitochondrial diseases.Because CRISPR can't help with these problems, researchers have been looking for other ways to precisely edit the mitochrondrial genome. And the past few years have brought some success — if researchers can make editing safe and accurate enough, it could eventually be used to treat, and even cure, these genetic conditions.This is an audio version of our Feature: Faulty mitochondria cause deadly diseases — fixing them is about to get a lot easier Hosted on Acast.
