Fulton Sheen gave the world and the Catholic Church profound preaching and wisdom. He stated that he intended to write a book about the demonic but never ended up completing this work. Fr Dave Tomaszycki has taken on the important task of compiling the writings of Blessed Fulton Sheen regarding the subject of the demonic, including archives of Fulton Sheen's writings, some never-before-seen, in preparation for this book that was never completed. In "On the Demonic," Sheen addresses the history of the demonic, how the devil manifested himself to Our Lord, how he has worked throughout the Church's history, and how the Anti-Christ will come in the end times.

In this episode of the "Point-of-Sale Finance" series, Jason Cover is joined by colleagues Erin Edwards and Simon Fleischmann from Troutman Pepper Locke's Consumer Financial Services practice to shift the lens from regulatory compliance to litigation risk. The conversation broadens the frame beyond Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) to the full point-of-sale credit ecosystem (Pay in 4 products, embedded installment loans, retail installment sales contracts, and private label retail cards), explaining why litigation risk turns less on how a product is marketed and more on what the consumer saw, what they were told, and what happened when something went wrong after checkout.The episode traces the impact of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's 2024 BNPL interpretive rule and its May 2025 withdrawal, making clear that regulatory retreat does not reduce exposure. Instead, it shifts the battleground to state statutes, private plaintiffs, and existing federal law. Simon and Erin then dig into Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) litigation on both ends: the front-end permissible purpose question when a credit report is pulled at checkout, and the back-end furnishing duties triggered when payments, refunds, and disputes are reported to credit bureaus. The discussion also covers the surge in pro se litigation, autopay and fee theories emerging as class actions under Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA), and the merchant-side risks around refund flows and dispute handoffs.The episode closes with a practical triage framework for managing point-of-sale litigation risk, including how to audit checkout scripts, preserve authorization and disclosure records, and structure merchant contracts to reflect operational reality — so that when a dispute arises, the evidence file is already built.

Please join us for the National Rosary Rally and Rosary Coast to Coast on Sunday, October 4! There is ONE primary answer to the problems and threats that we face in our world, and that is a strong relationship with God rooted in prayer! Bishop Joseph Coffey and Sister Dede Byrne join us and give some powerful insight on this topic. Some see prayer as a last resort after man has exhausted all he can do to address the problems we face. The attitude that can be summed up with the words "Well, all we can do is pray now." is not only a terrible attitude but it lacks truth. The truth of the matter is that prayer SHOULD be the FIRST thing we do and it should be what we do throughout every challenge, threat and problem that we are confronted with in life, especially with the problems we are seeing all around us right now. ------------------------------- Get MORE information on the Rosary Coast to Coast event HERE: https://rosarycoasttocoast.com/ -------------------------------- Buy the book First Line of Defense by Doug Barry & Daniel O'Connor HERE: https://ignatius.com/first-line-of-defense-fldfp/?cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&AID=15734493&PID=100357191&cjevent=d8410aea701111f181b400820a82b832 -------------------------------- Join the USGF Community HERE: http://joingraceforce.com/4ABL -------------------------------- CHECK OUT THE NEW USGF T-SHIRT - SALVE REGINA - HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/salve-regina-graphic-t-shirt-elegant-marian-devotional-tee?variant=48469575565506 -------------------------------- Get your ONE NATION UNDER GOD T-Shirt (several different colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/one-nation-under-god-t-shirt-american-flag-tee -------------------------------- Get the 250 YEARS STRONG T-Shirt (a variety of colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/1776-under-one-god-patriotic-t-shirt-250-years-strong?variant=47926345105602 -------------------------------- Get the world famous USGF HAT HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/us-grace-force-embroidered-baseball-cap?variant=47926654959810 -------------------------------- Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKZ9OefEJLEx1qYcBxgAFww/join -------------------------------- PATREON - Help support this podcast by becoming a US Grace Force PATRON here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=25398590 -------------------------------- Check out ROMAN CATHOLIC GEAR and get amazing Catholic gear for the battle of your life!

Welcome to The Turf Zone Podcast. This episode features the article “Landscape and Groundskeeping Safety – Managing the Industry’s Most Common Hazards” written by Michael E. Clem, Environmental, Health & Safety Consultant. Landscape and groundskeeping professionals face a unique combination of hazards every day. From operating powerful cutting equipment and handling chemicals to working outdoors in extreme temperatures, the job requires a constant focus on safety. While these risks are often viewed as part of the job, injuries and illnesses are not inevitable. Through proper training, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and effective workplace controls, employers and employees can significantly reduce the likelihood of serious incidents. The need for strong safety programs is supported by industry statistics. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), grounds maintenance workers experience approximately 189 injuries per 10,000 full-time employees, which is more than twice the injury rate for all occupations combined. NIOSH also reports that the fatal injury rate for grounds maintenance workers is about five times higher than the average rate across all industries. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Labor documented more than 1,000 work-related fatalities in the landscaping and groundskeeping industry between 2011 and 2021. These numbers reinforce the importance of addressing the hazards that workers encounter most frequently. Chemical Exposure: Knowledge is the First Line of Defense Chemical exposure is an everyday concern in landscape and groundskeeping operations. Employees regularly work with fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides, fuels, cleaners, and other products that can cause health problems if not handled correctly. Exposure can occur through skin contact, inhalation, accidental ingestion, or contact with the eyes. Depending on the chemical involved, workers may experience anything from minor irritation to serious respiratory issues or long-term health effects. Training plays a critical role in preventing chemical-related injuries and illnesses. Employees should receive Hazard Communication training and understand how to access and interpret Safety Data Sheets (SDS). The SDS provides valuable information about a product’s hazards, safe handling procedures, required PPE, storage requirements, and emergency response measures. Workers should never use a chemical product without first understanding the precautions outlined in both the SDS and the manufacturer’s label. Proper PPE is equally important. Chemical-resistant gloves, safety glasses or splash goggles, long sleeves, and protective clothing can significantly reduce exposure risks. When mixing concentrated chemicals or applying products that may generate airborne contaminants, additional protection such as face shields or respirators may be required. By combining training, SDS knowledge, and proper protective equipment, employees can safely perform chemical applications while minimizing health risks. Lacerations and Amputations: Preventing Life-Altering Injuries Many of the tools used in landscape work are designed to cut, trim, chop, or shred vegetation. While highly effective, equipment such as mowers, chainsaws, hedge trimmers, brush cutters, and wood chippers can cause severe lacerations and amputations within seconds. OSHA identifies moving machinery and cutting components as some of the most significant hazards faced by landscaping workers. Most serious injuries occur when workers attempt to clear debris, perform maintenance, or bypass machine guards while equipment is still energized. Preventing these incidents begins with comprehensive equipment training. Employees should be instructed on proper operating procedures, machine guarding requirements, pre-use inspections, and the importance of shutting equipment down before servicing or clearing jams. Supervisors should also ensure that workers understand the hazards associated with rotating blades and moving parts and follow manufacturer recommendations at all times. Appropriate PPE provides an additional layer of protection. Safety glasses, face shields, sturdy work boots, gloves, and long pants help protect workers from both direct contact hazards and flying debris. However, PPE is not a substitute for safe work practices. The most effective prevention strategy is ensuring that machine guards remain in place, equipment is maintained properly, and workers resist the temptation to take shortcuts that could result in permanent injury. Heat-Related Illness: A Growing Seasonal Threat For landscape and groundskeeping workers, summer temperatures can create dangerous conditions. Employees often spend long hours performing physically demanding tasks in direct sunlight, making them particularly vulnerable to heat stress and heat-related illness. NIOSH has identified grounds maintenance workers as a high-risk occupational group due to the combination of heavy physical activity and prolonged exposure to outdoor heat. Heat-related illnesses may begin with muscle cramps, fatigue, or excessive sweating, but can quickly progress to heat exhaustion and, in severe cases, heat stroke. Heat stroke is a medical emergency that can result in permanent injury or death if not treated immediately. Because symptoms may develop rapidly, workers and supervisors must be trained to recognize warning signs and know how to respond. Training should emphasize hydration, acclimatization for new or returning employees, and early symptom recognition. Workers should be encouraged to monitor one another and report signs of heat illness immediately. In addition to administrative controls such as water and rest breaks, employers can implement engineering and mechanical controls that help reduce heat exposure. Portable fans, shaded rest areas, misting stations, cooling trailers, and air-conditioned vehicles can provide valuable relief during hot weather. Cooling towels, cooling neck wraps, and cooling vests are also effective tools for helping workers regulate body temperature and maintain productivity throughout the day. When combined with lightweight, breathable clothing and adequate hydration, these controls create a comprehensive approach to heat-stress prevention and can significantly lower the likelihood of a heat-related emergency. Noise Exposure: Protecting Hearing for the Long Term Unlike many workplace injuries, hearing loss develops gradually and often goes unnoticed until the damage is permanent. Landscape equipment such as leaf blowers, chainsaws, chippers, string trimmers, and riding mowers can generate noise levels capable of damaging hearing after prolonged exposure. According to CDC and NIOSH data, approximately 22 million U.S. workers are exposed to potentially harmful occupational noise each year, and roughly one in five noise-exposed workers experiences material hearing impairment. Protecting workers from excessive noise begins with education. Employees should understand the effects of noise exposure, recognize symptoms such as ringing in the ears or muffled hearing, and know how to properly wear and maintain hearing protection devices. Hearing conservation training should emphasize that hearing loss caused by workplace noise is irreversible but entirely preventable. Employers can further reduce exposure through engineering controls, including purchasing quieter equipment and maintaining engines and mufflers to minimize unnecessary noise. Administrative controls, such as rotating employees between high-noise and lower-noise tasks, can also help limit exposure. When noise cannot be reduced to safe levels, hearing protection such as earplugs, earmuffs, or a combination of both becomes essential. Consistent use of hearing protection allows employees to preserve their hearing throughout their careers and well into retirement. Building a Safer Landscape Workforce Landscape and groundskeeping work will always present challenges, but a proactive approach to safety can dramatically reduce injuries and illnesses. Chemical exposure, lacerations and amputations, heat-related illness, and noise exposure remain among the industry’s most significant hazards, yet each can be effectively controlled through training, hazard awareness, PPE, and engineering solutions. When employees understand the risks, know how to access critical information such as SDSs, wear the proper protective equipment, and utilize workplace controls such as machine guards, cooling devices, and hearing protection, they are better equipped to perform their jobs safely. Safety is not simply a requirement of the job. It is a commitment to ensuring that every employee returns home healthy at the end of each workday. You have been listening to The Turf Zone Podcast.

The evidence is clear. We are seeing the warnings of the Blessed Mother unfold before our eyes. Fr Chris Alar talks about the signs of our times and exactly what heaven has said the answer to these serious threats to humanity and our Catholic faith is. We were created for such a time as this, and it is imperative that we respond to these dangers with dedication, commitment and zeal. -------------------------------- Join the HEALING LIFE'S HURTS Online Summit HERE: https://brcoalition.com/SUMMIT/ -------------------------------- Buy the book First Line of Defense by Doug Barry & Daniel O'Connor HERE: https://ignatius.com/first-line-of-defense-fldfp/?cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&AID=15734493&PID=100357191&cjevent=d8410aea701111f181b400820a82b832 -------------------------------- Join the USGF Community HERE: http://joingraceforce.com/4ABL -------------------------------- CHECK OUT THE NEW USGF T-SHIRT - SALVE REGINA - HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/salve-regina-graphic-t-shirt-elegant-marian-devotional-tee?variant=48469575565506 -------------------------------- Get your ONE NATION UNDER GOD T-Shirt (several different colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/one-nation-under-god-t-shirt-american-flag-tee -------------------------------- Get the 250 YEARS STRONG T-Shirt (a variety of colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/1776-under-one-god-patriotic-t-shirt-250-years-strong?variant=47926345105602 -------------------------------- Get the world famous USGF HAT HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/us-grace-force-embroidered-baseball-cap?variant=47926654959810 -------------------------------- Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKZ9OefEJLEx1qYcBxgAFww/join -------------------------------- PATREON - Help support this podcast by becoming a US Grace Force PATRON here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=25398590 -------------------------------- Check out ROMAN CATHOLIC GEAR and get amazing Catholic gear for the battle of your life!

Catholic author, evangelist and psychologist Dr. Carol Razza joins us to discuss the power and importance of the words that we speak to others, and of words that are spoken to us, and how we are allowing these words to shape our minds, our lives and our faith. Many people find themselves imprisoned by what they have grown up hearing spoken to them or by the way they have spoken to themselves. Truly listening to the truth of God's voice through HIS word, and letting it transform us, is more important than most people realize. But how do we do that and how do we help others do it? -------------------------------- Connect with Dr Carol Razza HERE: drcjr60@yahoo.com -------------------------------- Join the HEALING LIFE'S HURTS Online Summit HERE: https://brcoalition.com/SUMMIT/ -------------------------------- Buy the book First Line of Defense by Doug Barry & Daniel O'Connor HERE: https://ignatius.com/first-line-of-defense-fldfp/?cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&AID=15734493&PID=100357191&cjevent=d8410aea701111f181b400820a82b832 -------------------------------- Join the USGF Community HERE: http://joingraceforce.com/4ABL -------------------------------- CHECK OUT THE NEW USGF T-SHIRT - SALVE REGINA - HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/salve-regina-graphic-t-shirt-elegant-marian-devotional-tee?variant=48469575565506 -------------------------------- Get your ONE NATION UNDER GOD T-Shirt (several different colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/one-nation-under-god-t-shirt-american-flag-tee -------------------------------- Get the 250 YEARS STRONG T-Shirt (a variety of colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/1776-under-one-god-patriotic-t-shirt-250-years-strong?variant=47926345105602 -------------------------------- Get the world famous USGF HAT HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/us-grace-force-embroidered-baseball-cap?variant=47926654959810 -------------------------------- Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKZ9OefEJLEx1qYcBxgAFww/join -------------------------------- PATREON - Help support this podcast by becoming a US Grace Force PATRON here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=25398590 -------------------------------- Check out ROMAN CATHOLIC GEAR and get amazing Catholic gear for the battle of your life!

Everyone in this market is optimizing for the wrong thing. Consumers want the most weight loss for the cheapest price, and up to 40% of what they're losing is muscle.My guests this week are Nicholas Syhler, a former cardiologist who left his residency to work upstream of the heart attacks he was treating, and Paul Elsass, an exercise physiologist who spent years in startup land before landing on the one root cause nobody had solved. Their company, Embla, runs a coach-first GLP-1 program out of Copenhagen with peer-reviewed data on almost 5,000 patients showing 55% less medication and the same weight loss outcomes seen in clinical trials.We get into why the drug was never designed to shut off hunger, why members can sit on a quarter milligram of semaglutide for months instead of escalating every 30 days, and the claims data suggesting aggressive dosing is quietly driving up MSK spend. We also cover why they built the model around self-funded employers rather than direct-to-consumer, what one bundled price under $500 a month actually includes, and their plan to move from weight loss into full cardiometabolic care with deprescribing as the goal.If you're evaluating a GLP-1 strategy for 2027, this one reframes the question.

Covering you all as you rest tonight and asking God to show up on your behalf this week ! We need God daily and I pray you let tomorrow be the first day to a lifetime of you NO LONGER only praying to God when in need. But make it priority to commune with Him every single day!

Episode 207. Let's take a deeper look at medical school interviews and what interviewers are really evaluating beyond your ability to give the “right” answers.

What AI Knows Before You Draw the First LineAI site feasibility analysis is changing how architects evaluate land before design begins. In this episode of the EntreArchitect Podcast, Mark R. LePage talks with Gayathri (G3) Venkataraman, Founder and CEO of GeoProspex.ai, about how artificial intelligence is helping architects and developers make better decisions before the first line is drawn. Drawing on decades of AI leadership at Microsoft and DocuSign, G3 explains how practical AI tools can reduce uncertainty early in the design process.G3 shares how GeoProspex.ai combines proprietary AI models with trusted data sources to speed up site feasibility while protecting privacy and improving accuracy. She explains why architects should think of AI as a decision support tool rather than a replacement for professional judgment. As a result, teams can identify opportunities and risks in minutes instead of days.The conversation explores what AI means for the future of architecture, real estate, and construction. G3 discusses how firms can begin using AI today without changing everything at once. This episode offers practical insights for architects who want to work smarter, reduce project risk, and embrace new technology with confidence.This week at EntreArchitect Podcast, What AI Knows Before You Draw the First Line with Gayathri (G3) Venkataraman.

In today's episode, we spoke with Solange Peters, MD, PhD. Dr Peters is a full professor, and chair of medical oncology and the thoracic malignancies programme in the Department of Oncology at the University Hospital of Lausanne in Switzerland. In our exclusive interview, Dr Peters discussed the rationale for pairing antiangiogenic activity with checkpoint inhibition upfront in non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), rather than sequencing them. She noted that prior attempts to combine or sequence bevacizumab (Avastin) with checkpoint inhibitors yielded only modest signals, hampered by bevacizumab's long half-life and class-specific toxicities including bleeding risk that historically excluded patients with squamous cell carcinoma. By contrast, PD-L1/VEGF bispecifics such as pumitamig carry a significantly shorter half-life of approximately 5 to 6 days, resulting in a similar toxicity category but with lower rates of high-grade events and a broadened eligible population.She highlighted the mechanistic rationale for this combination, explaining that VEGF and PD-L1 co-targeting appears to remodel the tumor microenvironment cooperatively, bringing cancer cells into closer proximity with T cells. In the case of PD-L1/VEGF bispecifics, a macromolecular structure forms in the tumor microenvironment that leads to internalization of PD-L1, creating a dual blockade of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway beyond simple receptor occupancy.Dr Peters then discussed data presented at the 2026 ASCO Annual Meeting from the phase 2/3 ROSETTA Lung-02 trial (NCT06712316) evaluating pumitamig plus chemotherapy in the first-line setting. She described the activity observed across all PD-L1 expression strata, including in PD-L1–negative patients, who comprised up to 70% of the nonsquamous population and achieved response rates above 50% as particularly compelling. She also addressed the dose selection rationale, noting that the 1500-mg dose demonstrated the optimal pharmacodynamic activity and favorable risk-benefit profile for phase 3 advancement.Finally, Dr Peters offered broader perspective on the increasingly competitive PD-L1/VEGF bispecific landscape, including the parallel development of ivonescimab. She suggested that differences in clinical trial design including patient population, inclusion and exclusion criteria, and end point ambition may ultimately differentiate agents more than mechanism alone, and emphasized that global data will be essential to shaping regulatory and clinical practice decisions.

Exorcist, Fr Chad Ripperger, sits down and explains why we are seeing this intense rise in extremism in our modern times. From Socialism and communism to pronoun battles and the divisions in the family and the Church, there is more to this than you may realize. Fr. Ripperger also explains what the "antidote" to this really is and what the trajectory of all this is looking like. -------------------------------- Join the HEALING LIFE'S HURTS Online Summit HERE: https://brcoalition.com/SUMMIT/ -------------------------------- Buy the book First Line of Defense by Doug Barry & Daniel O'Connor HERE: https://ignatius.com/first-line-of-defense-fldfp/?cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&AID=15734493&PID=100357191&cjevent=d8410aea701111f181b400820a82b832 -------------------------------- Join the USGF Community HERE: http://joingraceforce.com/4ABL -------------------------------- CHECK OUT THE NEW USGF T-SHIRT - SALVE REGINA - HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/salve-regina-graphic-t-shirt-elegant-marian-devotional-tee -------------------------------- Get your ONE NATION UNDER GOD T-Shirt (several different colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/one-nation-under-god-t-shirt-american-flag-tee -------------------------------- Get the 250 YEARS STRONG T-Shirt (a variety of colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/1776-under-one-god-patriotic-t-shirt-250-years-strong?variant=47926345105602 -------------------------------- Get the world famous USGF HAT HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/us-grace-force-embroidered-baseball-cap?variant=47926654959810 -------------------------------- Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKZ9OefEJLEx1qYcBxgAFww/join -------------------------------- PATREON - Help support this podcast by becoming a US Grace Force PATRON here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=25398590 -------------------------------- Check out ROMAN CATHOLIC GEAR and get amazing Catholic gear for the battle of your life!

In today's episode, we spoke with Sara M. Tolaney, MD, MPH, about the FDA approval of sacituzumab govitecan plus pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa-pmph (Keytruda Qlex) for the first-line treatment of adult patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) whose tumors express PD-L1 as determined by an FDA-authorized test. Dr Tolaney is chief of the Division of Breast Oncology and associate director of the Susan F. Smith Center for Women's Cancers and a senior physician at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, as well as an associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts.This regulatory decision was backed by findings from the phase 3 ASCENT-04/KEYNOTE-D19 trial (NCT05382286), in which the median progression-free survival among patients in the sacituzumab govitecan arm was 11.2 months (95% CI, 9.3-16.7) vs 7.8 months (95% CI, 7.3-9.3) among patients who received physician's choice of chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab (HR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.51-0.84; P = .0009).In our exclusive interview, Dr Tolaney highlighted the significance of this approval, key data from ASCENT-04, and how the TNBC paradigm is shifting to accommodate this new regimen.

I sat down with Dr. Jordan Metzl, a sports-medicine physician who's convinced that the reason most of us can't stay consistent isn't discipline or knowledge, it's motivation, and he says you can actually engineer it by "lowering the cost to act." We get into exercise as a literal medicine that would beat almost any drug if it came in a pill, why fun is the real holy grail of compliance, and how movement can go head-to-head with antidepressants for everyday anxiety and depression. If you've been white-knuckling your way through willpower and losing, this one's going to change how you think about getting off the couch.

Send us Fan MailIn this double-blind randomized controlled trial, Adrianne and Nim examine whether norepinephrine outperforms dopamine as a first-line vasoactive agent in neonates with fluid-refractory septic shock. The primary outcome, shock reversal at 30 minutes, was not significantly different between groups, at 32 percent for norepinephrine and 46 percent for dopamine. Secondary outcomes including mortality, IVH, NEC, and need for additional vasoactive support were also similar. The episode critically examines the methodological limitations of the study, including unclear sepsis definitions, absence of echo phenotyping, and unusually high starting doses, and asks whether the field needs better tools before these questions can be properly answered.----Norepinephrine versus Dopamine for Septic Shock in Neonates: A Randomized Controlled Trial.Mazhari MYA, Priyadarshi M, Singh P, Chaurasia S, Basu S.J Pediatr. 2025 Jul;282:114599. doi: 10.1016/j.jpeds.2025.114599.

The attacks against the Catholic Church have always been, but in recent decades we have seen an increase in these attacks and a concerning rise in violence and persecution in different forms around the world. Daniel O'Connor joins us to break this down and discuss if Christians, especially men, are truly ready for what is happening and for what may be coming. -------------------------------- Buy the book First Line of Defense HERE: https://ignatius.com/first-line-of-defense-fldfp/?cjdata=MXxOfDB8WXww&AID=15734493&PID=100357191&cjevent=d8410aea701111f181b400820a82b832 -------------------------------- Join the USGF Community HERE: http://joingraceforce.com/4ABL -------------------------------- Get your ONE NATION UNDER GOD T-Shirt (several different colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/one-nation-under-god-t-shirt-american-flag-tee -------------------------------- Get the 250 YEARS STRONG T-Shirt (a variety of colors) HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/1776-under-one-god-patriotic-t-shirt-250-years-strong?variant=47926345105602 -------------------------------- Get the world famous USGF HAT HERE: https://ty19f5-gu.myshopify.com/products/us-grace-force-embroidered-baseball-cap?variant=47926654959810 -------------------------------- Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKZ9OefEJLEx1qYcBxgAFww/join -------------------------------- PATREON - Help support this podcast by becoming a US Grace Force PATRON here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=25398590 -------------------------------- Check out ROMAN CATHOLIC GEAR and get amazing Catholic gear for the battle of your life!

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology, University of Leeds, was joined at the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) 2026 annual congress in London by Laurence Duquenne, MD, a rheumatology researcher, Leeds Institute of Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Medicine, University of Leeds, an investigator on one of the meeting's standout studies to examine whether baseline naïve CD4+ T cell frequency can identify which newly diagnosed patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are unlikely to respond to methotrexate monotherapy, and whether adding a biologic at the outset can close that gap.Click here to watch the episode.

After assessing the current state of masculinity in our culture, they offer words of encouragement and wisdom on how to become a better and more Godly man. They encourage men to take responsibility and to take action both in their personal life and as leaders in their family. This requires preparedness, training, and spiritual as well as physical exercise. This uplifting discussion is a great source of encouragement for men who want to grow stronger and closer to God.   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

Episode 3024: Ryan Larson explains how honest, structured conversations about money can strengthen relationships and prevent financial conflict from becoming a long-term problem. By exploring financial history, debt, assets, future goals, and ongoing communication, couples can build trust, create shared plans, and approach finances as a team instead of adversaries. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://firstlinefin.com/how-to-have-the-money-talk-with-your-partner/ Quotes to ponder: "Money and finances are routinely sited as the number one topic couples fight about and one of the leading causes of divorce." "It's important to keep an open mind and be willing to compromise. The point isn't “my way or the highway,” it's “what works for us.”" "Remember, it's you two against the problem, not you two against each other."

In the depths of the Castle Eschatonica, the true beckonings called to the travelers of the Dragon Path. Led across the ether under divine shadow and holy light, to things that aren't, but which might yet be: New more peaceful lives. Freedom from obligation and duty. Different, more adventurous histories. A key to a door which itself beckons. The power to protect those they care for. Power for power's sake alone. With these behind them, the two groups re-emerge into the halls of the Castle. In the western wing, three figures push forward into the passageways of this transcendent fortress—Uncle Nicky, criminal turned chef; the terrapine Jonathan, inventor and—now—airship captain; and Antistrophe Landrace, the Ruinbringer, though he may not know it yet.  Meanwhile, to the east, an octet walks Eschatonica's twisting paths: Famed adventurer, and Jonathan's sister, Maebela; Veile Lyndelle, destined devotee of the Ennead; Elena Millefiori, Tesserae chanter and eager traveler; the youthful and curious Waylon of Spillaway Peaks; Renegade Hexcloak Caiomhe Wake; and finally, Brontë Adelvys, dissipated sixth scion of the First Line, along with his attendants, Efta and Zolfta Above them, watching with all nine eyes, is Gnova, once the God of Distant Color and Light, now the steward of this Castle. But they are not the only celestial being interested in Eschatonica. They saw Lucena's sunlight streamed across the ether towards their home. They watched as Caliginia's long shadow fell, finally, even here. Indeed, they dread how these gods now shake the diorama-like stability of Eschatonica, and how in doing so, they unknowingly have sent up a flare… Because she is coming, now. Indeed. She is almost here. This Week on Perpetua: Escape the Rumbling Castle! 01 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.06] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] Thanks to TheUnforgivenIII for pushing me to include a little more info in the NPCs & Monsters section! Still not giving it all away, because my goal isn't to take away all the mystery! But you should check TU3's strategy guide (in progress) for more combat focused tips! Windborne Hawk Traits: Agile, Lightweight, Droning Type: Hunter Construct Level: 10 Rank: Soldier Stats: DEX 10, INS 8, MIG 6, WLP 8  Attacks: Flechette Burst Special Abilities: Occult Dampener, Annoying Buzz, Flying Elemental Affinities: IMM: Poison | RES: Wind, Dark, Earth | VUL: Bolt, Ice, Light In-Game Description: A beautiful bird automaton that floats through the power of a dark wind. Despite being level 10 soldiers, these are one of the most dangerous enemies in the Castle Eschatonica. They are custom made to crush your casters (which according to DoomTreeAnne's lore document really lines up with their anti-Oracle purpose in Armidirge). Their Flechette Burst can tear through your party (especially characters without martial armor!!) and their Occult Dampener turn them into spell-devouring TANKS.   Starter Tip: Take. These. Down. Quick. Once their Dampener is up, they're that much harder to deal with. Windborne Turret Traits: Automatic, Threat-Finding, Defensive, Deployed Type: Hunter Construct Level: 10 Rank: Soldier Stats: DEX 8, INS 10, MIG 8, WLP 6  Attacks: Repeating Fire Special Abilities: None Elemental Affinities: IMM: Poison | RES: Wind, Dark, Earth | VUL: Bolt, Light In-Game Description: A hovering, bronze-clad weapon that scans for (and eliminates) targets Extremely straightforward enemies. They float in place (but AREN'T Flying enemies) and take a really strong shot at you every other turn (and it doesn't seem like they do much in the way of supporting the rest of their side).  Exploit that to keep their total attack Starter Tip: Focus them down, one at a time. Windborne Flower Traits: Automatic, Defensive, Deployed Type: Support Construct Level: 10 Rank: Soldier Stats: DEX 8, INS 8, MIG 8, WLP 8 Attacks: Shadow Cast Special Abilities: Barrier of Wind, Flying Elemental Affinities: IMM: Poison | RES: Wind, Dark, Earth | VUL: Bolt, Fire, Light In-Game Description: Like a bronze flower, this device unfurls its petals and emits a shielding over its allies. These are the de facto "clerics" of these Windborne automata. Their Barrier of Wind is super annoying (though it should be recognizable if you're doing a support Elene build!).  Starter Tip: While they don't do a lot of damage, their Shadow Cast ability can leave your party dazed, so be careful! Eaja, Windborne Hawkmaster Traits: Fierce, Quick, Determined, Principled Type: Sentinel Humanoid Rank: Champion (3) Stats: DEX ??, INS ??, MIG ??, WLP ??  Attacks: Unknown Special Abilities: Unknown Elemental Affinities: Unknown In-Game Description: A scout from the Windborne Church, one of the two major factions of Armidirge. Thankfully, you don't need to fight Eaja along with her automatons when you first bump into her, though if you're quick you can tackle her as an optional boss fight (which is really hard). Starter Tip: Leave her for later! Trust me.
