(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE). On November 24, 2002, a medieval catapult violently hurled willing human beings several stories high and into a net 100 feet away. Those who built the catapult and organized the stunt were inspired by a notorious group of misfits from the 1970s. This is the story of the Dangerous Sports Club and the 2004 manslaughter trial following the tragic killing of Kostydin "Dino" Yankov. *** MERCH STORE IS LIVE!

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this special episode, Peter takes a deep dive into obicetrapib, an investigational drug that has captured his attention and renewed interest in an entire class of therapies known as CETP inhibitors. He explains what obicetrapib is and how it works, revisits the history of CETP inhibitors and why earlier versions of these drugs failed—sometimes dramatically—and breaks down the key clinical trials designed to evaluate their impact on cardiovascular risk. Peter examines how obicetrapib influences major lipid biomarkers, including LDL cholesterol and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], and discusses emerging evidence from a study that explored the drug's effects on Alzheimer's-related blood biomarkers. He also highlights intriguing findings in individuals carrying the APOE4 allele and reflects on what these early results may mean for both cardiovascular disease prevention and potential implications for Alzheimer's risk, as well as how he is thinking about this therapy in the context of caring for his own patients. We discuss: Introducing obicetrapib: CETP inhibitor history, lipid biology, and early Alzheimer's biomarker signals in APOE4 carriers [2:15]; CETP biology explained: lipoproteins, reverse cholesterol transport, and how CETP inhibition alters HDL and LDL particles [5:15]; The early CETP inhibitor story: why raising HDL cholesterol alone failed to deliver cardiovascular protection [13:45]; The rise and fall of early CETP inhibitors: torcetrapib, dalcetrapib, evacetrapib, and anacetrapib [18:30]; Why obicetrapib may succeed where earlier CETP inhibitors failed [23:30]; The BROADWAY trial: obicetrapib's effects on LDL, ApoB, Lp(a), and residual cardiovascular risk [26:00]; Brain lipid metabolism and APOE4: how CETP inhibition may influence cholesterol transport in Alzheimer's disease [30:45]; Findings from the substudy of the BROADWAY trial which looked at changes in biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease [40:00]; Interpreting the BROADWAY Alzheimer's biomarker results: limitations, cautious optimism, and the need for a dedicated prevention trial [46:45]; Why Peter is optimistic about obicetrapib: cardiovascular benefits, Lp(a) reduction, and the path toward approval [50:00]; and More.

Patients may assume you're highly trained, but what they're often looking for first is reassurance that you genuinely care. In this episode of Everyday Oral Surgery, host Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes return guest Dr. Richard Akin, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon practicing in Louisiana, for a thoughtful conversation on the science of empathy in clinical care. Together, they explore how warmth and presence can shape patient trust even more than perceived competence, and how just a minute of focused listening can make a meaningful difference. They share simple ways to build connection, from using a patient's name and sitting at eye level to educating patients as equal partners in care. Dr. Akin also reflects on the emotional weight of this work, the risks of empathy fatigue, and how the right kind of connection may help ease burnout. He offers practical sustainability insights as well, including how adjusting your schedule and building autonomy can support a longer, healthier career. Tune in for a human-centered discussion on why empathy is so important for both patients and providers.Key Points From This Episode:The story behind the phrase “no one cares how much you know until they know how much you care” and how it applies to oral surgery.Why patients assume competence, but seek out signs of genuine care.How 90 seconds of focused listening matters more than prolonged distracted listening.Research on how patients rate warmth and benevolence higher than perceived competence.Ways that surgical bravado can block deeper connection and understanding.Findings on how patient compliance improves when they feel personally cared for.Helping patients feel like informed partners through education and clear choices.Simple connection tools, like using the patient's name and sitting at eye level.Lessons from Unreasonable Hospitality and the practice of truly seeing the patient.How emotional barriers and detachment can contribute to burnout in healthcare.Why the right kind of connection can help relieve clinician burnout.Scheduling and autonomy as keys to long-term energy and sustainability.How connection with patients can lower stress more than rushing through care.Reflections on the modern medical system and transcending transactional care to build more relational, trust-based patient connection.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Richard Akin — https://www.drakin.com/Dr. Richard Akin on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-akin-644aa932/Dr. Richard Akin email — rick@drakin.comFrom Tension to Trust: The Science of Connection in Healthcare (with Dr. Richard Akin) — ‘Empathy: The Human Connection to Patient Care' — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDDWvj_q-o8Unreasonable Hospitality — https://www.amazon.com/Unreasonable-Hospitality-Remarkable-Giving-People/dp/0593418573Being Mortal — https://www.amazon.com/Being-Mortal-Medicine-What-Matters-ebook/dp/B00JCW0BCYEveryday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant S

Scientists exposed mice to extremely powerful electric fields and discovered something unexpected: power frequency fields actually improved memory performance, while static fields had no effect. In this episode, I break down a fascinating comparative study that reveals how frequency matters as much as field strength when it comes to biological effects. The researchers used field strengths of thirty-five thousand volts per meter -- far stronger than typical environmental exposures -- and found cognitive enhancement rather than impairment. In This Episode Why power frequency fields enhanced mouse memory while static fields didn't What thirty-five thousand volts per meter means in real-world context How frequency characteristics affect biological systems differently Featured Study A comparative study on influences of static electric field and power frequency electric field on cognition in mice.

What really happens inside one of the most powerful companies in the world?This week, we sit down with Brian Boland, a former senior leader at Facebook (pre-Meta), who spent more than a decade helping build and scale Facebook and Instagram's advertising systems — and later testified in court about what he saw.Brian was in the courtroom for nearly five hours. In this candid conversation, he pulls back the curtain on:What it feels like to testify under oath against your former companyHow Meta's internal culture shifted after whistleblowers like Frances Haugen spoke outThe reality of Mark Zuckerberg's power inside the company — and why the board can't remove himHow algorithms are built, tested, and optimized — and why even engineers don't fully understand their long-term impactsWhether Meta is truly incentivized to limit teen usageThe truth about ad revenue from minorsHow accurate age-estimation technology really is — and why that mattersWhat whistleblowing actually costs the people who do itBrian doesn't call for the end of social media. In fact, he believes these platforms could be built to strengthen communities. But he's clear: the current incentives — profit, growth, daily active users — drive decisions that put engagement above safety.He also shares what he told executives, including Mark Zuckerberg, before he left — and the response he received.If you've ever wondered:Are these platforms intentionally habit-forming?Do they really know how young users are?Could they reduce harm if they wanted to?Why don't more insiders speak out?This episode is essential listening.It's a rare, inside look at how power, profit, algorithms, and accountability collide — and what it might actually take to force change.The Heat is On...Big Tech on Trial is an investigative mini-series by Scrolling 2 Death, in partnership with Heat Initiative.Video Editing expertly provided by Jacob Meade.Research mentioned in the episode: Social media platforms generate billions of dollars in revenue from U.S. youth: Findings from a simulated revenue model (Raffoul article)
Refinance Fee Savings: How to Lower Your Costs on Title, Appraisal, and CreditRefinancing your mortgage can be a smart move, potentially saving you thousands of dollars over the life of your loan. But let's be honest, the initial costs of refinancing - title fees, appraisals, credit reports, and surveys - can sometimes feel like a hurdle. What if we told you there were ways to significantly reduce, or even eliminate, some of those fees? At DDA Mortgage, we leverage our expertise and lender relationships to help you navigate the refinancing process and potentially save you money. A key to unlocking these savings lies in getting a solid "DU approval" - which we'll explain more about in this article. Get ready to learn how to potentially reduce your refinance costs and maximize your savings!Reduced Title Fees with a Desktop Underwriter (DU) Approval on Refinance LoansTitle fees are a necessary part of any real estate transaction, including refinances. They cover the cost of researching the property's history to ensure clear ownership and issuing title insurance to protect you and the lender. However, with a Desktop Underwriter (DU) approval, which is Fannie Mae's automated underwriting system, on your refinance, you could be eligible for a significant reduction in title fees. We're talking potential savings of up to $1,500! This applies to both rate/term refinances (lowering your interest rate or shortening your loan term) and cash-out refinances.Here's how it works: The DU system analyzes your financial information, credit history, and property details to assess the risk of the loan. If the system provides a strong approval, it indicates a lower risk for the lender. This can translate into reduced costs for certain services, including title insurance. At DDA Mortgage, we work closely with our title partners to negotiate the best possible rates for our clients, especially when we can leverage a favorable DU approval. If you're considering a refinance, understanding the potential for title fee reductions is crucial. Make sure to visit our refinancing page to learn more about how we can help!Why a DU Approval Matters for Title FeesLower Perceived Risk: A strong DU approval signals to the lender that you are a qualified borrower, reducing their perceived risk.Negotiating Power: This lower risk profile gives us more leverage to negotiate with title companies on your behalf.Streamlined Process: A smooth underwriting process can lead to faster closings and potentially lower costs.Potential Appraisal Waiver Savings with a DU ApprovalAppraisals are another significant expense in the refinance process. They involve a professional appraiser assessing the current market value of your property to ensure it aligns with the loan amount. However, in many cases, a DU approval can pave the way for an appraisal waiver, saving you hundreds of dollars.The DU system uses a vast database of property information and market trends to determine if an appraisal is necessary. If your property's characteristics and location align with their data and your loan request is deemed low-risk, the system may grant an appraisal waiver. This means you avoid the cost and hassle of scheduling and paying for an appraisal.It's important to note that appraisal waivers aren't guaranteed and depend on several factors, including your loan-to-value ratio, credit score, and property type. But, when available, they can significantly reduce your closing costs. Don't forget to contact us to determine if you can take advantage of an appraisal waiver for your refinance!https://www.ddamortgage.com/blogdidier malagies nmls#212566dda mortgage nmls#324329 Support the show

This episode of WarDocs features Dr. David Tate, a clinical neuropsychologist and lead author of the 2025 Military Medicine Article of the Year. The discussion centers on a groundbreaking study utilizing the LIMBIC-CENC cohort—a massive data set of over 3,000 participants—to investigate persistent brain changes in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Dr. Tate explains that traditional MRI scans often show normal results in patients with invisible symptoms because researchers often oversimplify patient groupings. By digging into more refined clinical characteristics, such as the mechanism of injury and number of exposures, his team identified unique physical signatures in the brain. Specifically, blast exposures were linked to changes in central white matter, while repetitive traumatic hits impacted more peripheral gray matter structures. The conversation highlights the critical importance of neuroimaging techniques like diffusion tensor imaging, which is more sensitive to structural white matter changes than standard hospital sequences. Dr. Tate emphasizes that these findings provide vital validation for service members and veterans, demonstrating that their ongoing symptoms are rooted in physical, biological changes rather than purely psychological or "imagined". For clinicians, the episode serves as a call to action to move beyond simplistic interpretations of "normal" imaging and to prioritize exhaustive injury histories that include the physics of every exposure event. By combining a deep dive into advanced neuroimaging with a focus on personalized medicine, this episode provides a comprehensive look at the future of TBI diagnosis and treatment. Listeners will learn how high-resolution volumetric data and detailed clinical info—including loss of consciousness and post-traumatic amnesia markers—are used to improve prognostic accuracy. Ultimately, Dr. Tate's work demonstrates that injury history matters even years later, pointing researchers and clinicians toward a more precise approach to studying and treating the diverse landscape of mild traumatic brain injuries in the military population. Chapters (00:00-01:30) Introduction to the 2025 Military Medicine Article of the Year (01:30-06:17) Dr. David Tate's Professional Background and Career Evolution (06:17-08:04) Understanding the LIMBIC-CENC Cohort and Consortium Research (08:04-12:44) Methodology: Advanced Neuroimaging and Detailed Clinical Variables (12:44-17:03) Key Findings: Heterogeneity of mTBI and Mechanism-Specific Signatures (17:03-22:15) The Bottom Line: Validating Veteran Experiences and Clinical Takeaways Chapter Summaries (00:00-01:30) Introduction to the 2025 Military Medicine Article of the Year MG(R) Jeff Clark introduces guest Dr. David Tate and recognizes his team for winning the 2025 Military Medicine Article of the Year. The article focuses on persistent MRI findings unique to blast and repetitive mild traumatic brain injury within the LIMBIC-CENC cohort. (01:30-06:17) Dr. David Tate's Professional Background and Career Evolution Dr. Tate shares his journey from growing up on a farm in Mississippi to becoming a leading researcher in academic neuropsychology. He discusses his mentorship under Erin Bigler and his favorite career experiences working directly with service members at Brooke Army Medical Center. (06:17-08:04) Understanding the LIMBIC-CENC Cohort and Consortium Research The discussion explores the advantages of using a large consortium dataset that includes over 3,000 participants across the United States. This prospective study enables leading scientists and clinicians to collaborate on well-characterized, long-term functional outcomes following brain injury. (08:04-12:44) Methodology: Advanced Neuroimaging and Detailed Clinical Variables Dr. Tate explains the use of high-resolution volumetric MRI data and diffusion tensor imaging to map brain structural connections. Researchers combined these images with a plethora of clinical data, including lifetime exposure histories, demographics, and specific injury markers like loss of consciousness. (12:44-17:03) Key Findings: Heterogeneity of mTBI and Mechanism-Specific Signatures The study reveals that mild TBI is extremely heterogeneous and simplistic group comparisons often obscure meaningful findings. Findings showed that blast exposures leave signatures in central white matter, while repetitive traumatic injuries more specifically affect gray matter structures. (17:03-22:15) The Bottom Line: Validating Veteran Experiences and Clinical Takeaways The bottom line is that persistent brain changes can be detected if clinicians look at the right variables and mechanism of injury. This research validates the lived experiences of veterans, proving their symptoms are not imagined and emphasizing the need for detailed injury histories. Article Reference Persistent MRI Findings Unique to Blast and Repetitive Mild TBI: Analysis of the CENC/LIMBIC Cohort Injury Characteristics Open Access David F Tate, PhD , Benjamin S C Wade, PhD , Carmen S Velez, MS , Erin D Bigler, PhD , Nicholas D Davenport, PhD , Emily L Dennis, PhD , Carrie Esopenko, PhD , Sidney R Hinds, MD , Jacob Kean, PhD , Eamonn Kennedy, PhD Military Medicine, Volume 189, Issue 9-10, September/October 2024, Pages e1938–e1946, https://doi.org/10.1093/milmed/usae031 Take Home Messages Heterogeneity of Mild TBI: Mild traumatic brain injury is not a single, uniform condition, and simplistic groupings can obscure meaningful characteristics of an injury. Clinicians must recognize that "if you've seen one mild TBI, you've seen one mild TBI," requiring a more personalized approach to diagnosis. Mechanism-Specific Signatures: The physical signature left on the brain depends heavily on the mechanism of injury, with blast exposures typically affecting central white matter and repetitive traumatic hits impacting peripheral gray matter. Understanding these distinctions helps explain why different patients experience different functional outcomes even with the same diagnosis. Sensitivity of Advanced Neuroimaging: Standard MRI sequences often fail to detect injuries in mTBI patients, but advanced techniques like diffusion tensor imaging are highly sensitive to structural white matter changes. Relying solely on basic imaging can lead to an over-simplistic interpretation that overlooks persistent brain changes. Validation of Lived Experiences: Research into persistent brain changes provides vital biological validation for veterans and service members who struggle with ongoing symptoms. These findings support the idea that invisible wounds have a physical basis and are not simply psychological or imagined. Importance of Detailed Injury Histories: For clinicians, the most critical takeaway is the necessity of capturing a detailed lifetime injury history, including the number of exposures and specific physics of each event. This detailed clinical information is essential for improving prognostic accuracy and understanding a patient's long-term health trajectory.

Microlearning may feel like “old news” in some markets, but the survey shows it's still emerging and powerful elsewhere. A reminder that L&D practices move at very different speeds across the world.

Retailers talk about UX. They talk about conversion. But too many still ship digital experiences that a huge part of the population simply can't use.In this episode of the Wonderful Retail Podcast, Marion Ranvier (Executive Director, @Contentsquare Foundation) explains why digital accessibility is not a marginal issue—and why it directly affects conversion, retention, brand trust, and revenue.Marion breaks down:The real scale of accessibility needs (and why the web still fails users)What “inaccessible checkout” actually looks like in the real worldWhy accessibility gaps are often execution problems, not “awareness” problemsHow to build a credible 90-day accessibility plan (audit → training → prioritization → transparency)What businesses can measure today to connect accessibility to ROIWhy inclusive design often becomes “standard UX” for everyone (the TV remote control example)Where AI + inclusive user testing can move accessibility forward—if foundations are accessible firstIf you build or manage ecommerce experiences, this is the episode that forces a hard question:What revenue are you losing because users can't complete your journey?Guest: Marion Ranvier — Executive Director, Contentsquare FoundationTopic: Digital accessibility, ecommerce checkout, compliance, UX execution, ROI, AI + inclusive testing00:00 — Why inaccessible websites lose audiences for good00:23 — Welcome + why inclusion must be part of digital thinking01:19 — The question: why should retailers care about inclusivity?01:40 — Who Marion is + what the Contentsquare Foundation does02:06 — The scale: disability worldwide + “80% of the web” problem02:35 — Ecommerce example: when “Add to bag” becomes unusable03:08 — Research: inaccessible checkout flows + minimum requirements04:19 — Why the Foundation exists + Marion's dyslexia and motivation05:08 — Turning awareness into action: mission pillars (education/research/advocacy)06:34 — Research partnership + studying real behavior (not assumptions)07:36 — Findings: zoom 200%+, keyboard navigation, longer time-to-click08:37 — Business impact: bounce rate, time on site, basket value09:34 — European Accessibility Act + where to start if you're behind10:01 — A practical 90-day plan: audit, training, prioritization11:32 — The seriousness signal: publish an accessibility statement12:25 — The hardest question: proving accessibility ROI14:01 — Inclusive design wins for everyone (TV remote control)14:54 — The future: AI potential + why accessibility must be built in16:24 — Include disabled users in testing + AI personas and insights17:18 — Closing thanks

In this episode we are talking about uncertainty and risk along with patient preferences for communication. Segment 1: The attitudes of individuals with or at risk of adult-onset genetic conditions on reproductive genetic testing: A systematic review Shanice Allen is a PhD student from the Sheffield Institute for Translational Neuroscience (SITraN) at the University of Sheffield. The aim of her research is exploring the attitudes and experiences of individuals with or at-risk of genetic MND on reproductive genetic testing, and explore how and if clinicians discuss these options with these individuals. This will help us identify any barriers to accessing reproductive services. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shanice-allen-9a89661a5/ In this segment we discuss: - The attitudes toward reproductive genetic testing in adult-onset genetic conditions. - Experiential knowledge and perceived disease severity in shaping reproductive decision-making. - Ethical themes including guilt, eugenics, and concerns about pregnancy termination. - Findings supporting more tailored, longitudinal genetic counseling approaches. Segment 2: Assessing patient communication preferences for reclassified variants of uncertain significance in a general genetics clinic Eden Brush, MS, CGC is a pediatric and inpatient genetic counselor in the Division of Clinical Genetics at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. She completed her graduate training at Columbia University as part of the class of 2024. She is passionate about rare disease advocacy, narrative medicine, and disability justice. In this segment we discuss: - Patient communication preferences for reclassified variants of uncertain significance (VUS) and patient-driven practice insights - Factors that emphasize the utility of shared responsibility, the need for standardized recontact systems, and the importance of equity-focused implementation strategies. - How VUS reclassification type impacted patient-preferred disclosure methods.

A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health
Wondering why your child struggles with focus, mood, or emotional outbursts? Could a gene be amplifying ADHD, anxiety, and dysregulation, increasing stress sensitivity? Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, creator of Regulation First Parenting™, shows parents how to decode behavior and calm the brain effectively.If you've tried everything and your child still melts down, struggles to focus, or seems stuck in fight-or-flight, you're not failing. You're not alone. In this episode, I dive into how a gene could be amplifying ADHD, anxiety, and dysregulation and, most importantly, what you can do to calm the brain and create real change.Why does my child seem more reactive than other kids, even with good parenting?When a child's nervous system is already under pressure, genetic factors can lower their stress tolerance. Genes like MTHFR don't cause attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety disorders, or emotional dysregulation—but they can amplify vulnerability when combined with chronic stress, genetic and environmental influences, and other risk factors.This matters because research shows ADHD and related psychiatric disorders have a complex genetic architecture involving multiple genes, gene–environment interactions, and socioeconomic factors.Key takeaways:Genes involved can affect detoxification, inflammation, and neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotoninStress exposure fills the “stress cup” fasterBehavior is communication—not a character flawReal-Life Example: Two kids have the same school day. One recovers quickly. The other melts down for hours. Same environment—different genetic susceptibility, highlighting how genetic and environmental influences shape responses to everyday stress.Could MTHFR really impact ADHD symptoms, anxiety, or emotional regulation?Yes—but not in the scary way social media makes it sound. MTHFR is one of many genetic variations affecting methylation, the process that helps the body clear stress hormones and inflammatory byproducts. When methylation is sluggish, the sympathetic nervous system stays activated longer, making recovery from stress more difficult.Findings suggest kids with ADHD symptom dimensions, obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety disorders, or major depressive disorder may struggle more with recovery after stress—especially when genetic and socioeconomic interplay, genetic and environmental influences, and other environmental risk factors pile up.What parents often notice:Heightened anxiety & emotional volatilitySlower recovery after meltdownsSensitivity to medications or supplementsThis doesn't change the ADHD diagnosis—but it helps explain why regulation takes more effort in some children, even with supportive parenting and structured routines.If you're tired of walking on eggshells or feeling like nothing works…Get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit and finally learn what to say and do in
SailGP has released its initial findings from its investigation into the high-speed collision between the Black Foils and Team France boats at this month's regatta in Auckland. Two sailors were hospitalised after the French and Kiwi boats collided at speeds approaching 90 kilometres an hour on day one of the SailGP event. Both boats sustained significant damage and are expected to be off the water for some time. Sports Editor Dana Johannsen spoke to Lisa Owen.

Join Digital Education Committee Vice-Chair and podcast host Tina Baykaner, MD, MPH, along with this week's guest contributors, Jackson J. Liang, DO and Edward P. Gerstenfeld, MD, MS, FHRS for this week's episode. This study evaluates the relationship between hospital ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation volume and post-procedural complications, examining whether institutional procedural experience influences patient outcomes. The authors analyze complication rates across centers with varying VT ablation volumes to assess potential volume–outcome associations. Findings from this work provide important insights into procedural risk, quality metrics, and the potential impact of case volume on VT ablation safety. Learning Objectives Describe the relationship between hospital VT ablation procedural volume and post-procedural complication rates. Identify patient, procedural, and institutional factors that may contribute to complications following ventricular tachycardia ablation. Discuss how volume–outcome findings can inform quality improvement initiatives, referral patterns, and procedural planning for VT ablation programs.

DOCKET ALERTS:Trump celebrated President's Day by filing a trademark for Donald J. Trump International Airport — just in time for Florida's move to rename Palm Beach International Airport in his honor. KA-CHING!In Colorado, a state judge ruled that throwing prisoners in solitary confinement as a penalty for refusing to work violates the state constitution's ban on involuntary servitude. It's a start!And in Philadelphia, Judge Cynthia Rufe ordered the Trump administration to restore an exhibit on the enslaved people who lived at President's House under George Washington: “Each person who visits the President's House and does not learn of the realities of founding-era slavery receives a false account of this country's history.”MAIN SHOW:In Minnesota, Judge Nancy Brasel ordered DHS to grant detainees in “holding rooms” at the Whipple Building in Minneapolis meaningful access to counsel. The ruling bars ICE from removing immigrants from the state for 72 hours after they are originally picked up. We'll discuss the cracks appearing between DHS, which ignores court orders, and DOJ, which has to show up in court and take the blame for it.In New York, Judge Lewis Kaplan issued a similar order in September with respect to temporary “holding rooms” on the 9th floor at 26 Federal Plaza in Manhattan, with additional requirements that DHS provide for detainees' hygiene, nutrition, and medical needs. The plaintiffs say ICE has not complied and moved for contempt. The City reports that DHS opened up new temporary detention facilities on the 10th floor, but claims the injunction doesn't apply there for, uh, REASONS.And we break down all the ways Republicans are trying to suppress the vote with the SAVE America Act, which solves the nonexistent problem of noncitizens voting illegally by imposing a series of restrictions on citizens registering and voting.In the subscriber bonus, we discuss a district court's decision in Massachusetts enjoining the Trump administration from deploying ICE in and around churches.

Peanuts cartoonist Charles Schulz makes it clear, "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.” Emmet Fox shares the key which is, “No matter how unattractive or how dangerous the road ahead may be, it is better than the road back. The road ahead may be veiled from sight—but you must teach yourself to regard the unknown as friendly. Remember that God is always on the road ahead.” We ought to always move forward with faith, the joyful expectancy that good fortune is in the cards. This attitude becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy, since it's the Universe's job to match our frequency. On this episode we share examples of how there is nothing to oppose our good and even if some unexpected problems should arise, maintaining a faithful attitude will set it right. Guest Cathy Norman motivates us to have fun using prayer, the alchemy of the mind, to transform our reality for the better. “After all, He's famous for great and unexpected acts. There is no end to his surprises.” Job 5:9 Follow Cathy Jean Norman: https://www.youtube.com/@CathyJeanNorman The Great Seal / The Symbolic Guide for Happy and Successful Living: https://a.co/d/0jc8w2mB Sermon on The Molehill / Spiritual Keys to Amazing Health, Wealth, and Prosperity: https://a.co/d/05dJHFYQ Join the Prospering Patreon Community: www.Patreon.com/FunniestThing

In this compelling episode of Unleashing Intuition Secrets, Michael Jaco speaks with retired U.S. Air Force Major Tom Haviland, who has spent years researching unusual fibrous clots reportedly observed in individuals following the global rollout of COVID-19 vaccines. Drawing from extensive surveys, field reports, and ongoing data collection, Tom shares what has been documented, why awareness of this issue has grown, and why he believes further independent investigation is critical. The conversation explores questions surrounding long-term health impacts, physiological responses, and the broader debate around vaccine safety and public health transparency. Tom also reflects on his stance regarding the military vaccine mandate and discusses the importance of informed consent, open scientific inquiry, and medical freedom. Michael and Tom examine the need for continued research, responsible dialogue, and accountability as society works to better understand the lasting health implications of the pandemic era. This episode provides insight into emerging findings, ongoing controversy, and the call for deeper investigation into public health data.

Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins Hidden Killers Live for comprehensive behavioral analysis of two major cases: the Nancy Guthrie abduction and the McKee/Tepe double homicide autopsy.Robin served as Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, training agents to detect deception and read human behavior in high-stakes situations. In this interview, he applies that expertise to cases dominating national headlines.The Guthrie case: An 84-year-old woman taken from her Tucson home. Ransom notes sent to media outlets demanding bitcoin. Details about the inside of her home and what she was wearing. What do these choices reveal about whoever did this? How do investigators assess family, staff, and witnesses when there are no named suspects? Robin explains how to separate grief from guilt—and what happens when false accusations circulate publicly.The McKee/Tepe autopsy: Sixteen gunshot wounds. Monique shot nine times, including once in the face at close range. Spencer shot seven times with defensive injuries suggesting he tried to shield his wife. What do the wound patterns tell us about the shooter's mental state? Was this rehearsed calculation or explosive rage?Robin examines the "wound collector" profile—someone who catalogs grievances for years before acting. The affidavit alleges McKee spent eight years threatening Monique, surveilling her family, and telling her she would "always be his wife." What sustains that obsession? What finally triggers action?McKee's phone went dark during the murder window. Stolen plates. Counter-forensic awareness. Can anything break someone who allegedly planned this for nearly a decade?Two cases.

The most sweeping evaluation of Dallas City Hall in its 48-year history is nearing the finish line, with the review's leader saying findings could be released publicly as early as Feb. 20. In other news, Dallas Police Department leadership placed the 52-year old Jaime Castro, who spent 27-years as a law enforcement officer and led the Dallas Police Association, on leave in November as part of a months-long investigation into a multi-vehicle crash in northwest Dallas that killed a pedestrian; Southwest Airlines' customers have taken to social media platforms to complain about things like lack of overhead bin space and not being allowed to switch seats, even when there are plenty open; and companies are moving away from fully remote work policies with hybrid setups gaining traction and return-to-office requirements emerging as the most common model. Nationally, 87% of jobs are now entirely in-office. Dallas showed similar findings with 85% fully in-office positions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In the final episode of this series, Casey Kozak discusses functional sensory loss. Show citation: Sonoo M. Abductor sign: a reliable new sign to detect unilateral non-organic paresis of the lower limb. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 2004;75(1):121-125. Show transcript: Welcome back to Neurology Minute. My name is Casey Kozak, and today we're finishing our discussion of functional neurological disorder and physical exam findings. We're going to now turn to functional sensory loss. But first, it's important to acknowledge that the subjective nature of sensory symptoms means that our physical exam tests will be less reliable than those used for functional weakness or movement disorders. Therefore, it's especially important that we as physicians listen carefully to the symptoms our patients are describing and remain aware of the potential for biases such as suggestion, when taking our histories. Nevertheless, there is certainly utility in physical exam tests as positive findings are present in many patients. We're going to discuss a few of these findings. The first is midline splitting, meaning that the patient's sensory loss has a clear edge at the midline of the body. For example, a patient may describe total sensory loss on the right side of their body, including their face, arm, and leg. And on testing, their sensory loss resolves in exactly the middle of their trunk. This is an unusual finding for sensory loss caused by central lesions, as the trunk is typically spared. The one exception to this rule, however, are thalamic lesions, which may be caused by stroke or mass effect, for example. While midline splitting is not a sensitive finding, it has a relatively high specificity if present. The second finding is splitting a vibration sense. This time, you will use your tuning fork to measure vibratory sensation across a bone that crosses midline, such as the frontal bone or the sternum. The sensation should be the same across the entire bone as vibration is perceived throughout bone conduction. Splitting a vibration, meaning there is loss of vibratory sensation on the numb side of the body is consistent with functional sensory loss because it defies its principle. Unlike midline splitting, however, splitting a vibration sense has been found to have a much lower specificity in testing. Finally, sensory deficits may be precisely demarcated by anatomical borders, such as the shoulder or the groin, which is incongruent with peripheral nerve distributions. Beyond these examples, there are many more findings that can suggest FND in patients experiencing motor, sensory, or even visual, gait, or cognitive symptoms. Functional neurological disorder is a challenging disorder, though our understanding of it is improving. If you haven't yet, I highly encourage you to check out the seven-part Neurology Minute series on FND by Jon Stone and Gabriela Gilmour, focusing on recent advances in diagnosis and treatment. With that, thank you for joining us.
