Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: May 06, 2024This episode of Weird Darkness moves chronologically through ten of history's most frequently cited UFO encounters, opening with a 1947 debris field on a New Mexico ranch and closing with a 2004 Navy radar encounter off the California coast.In July 1947, rancher William "Mac" Brazel discovers unusual metallic debris scattered across the Foster homestead north of Roswell, New Mexico, and reports it to Sheriff George Wilcox, who alerts the Roswell Army Air Field. Intelligence officer Major Jesse Marcel collects the material, and on July 8th the RAAF issues a press release announcing the recovery of a "flying disc." The story runs in newspapers nationwide before General Roger Ramey holds a press conference the next day identifying the debris as a weather balloon. The retraction does little to end the speculation; decades later, ufologists raise claims of recovered alien bodies and a government cover-up, and in 1994 the Air Force publishes "Case Closed: Final Report on the Roswell Crash," attributing the debris to the classified high-altitude balloon program Project Mogul.From there, the episode moves to April 6th, 1966, when more than two hundred students, teachers, and residents near Westall High School in the Melbourne suburb of Westall, Australia, watch a gray, saucer-shaped craft descend, hover for roughly twenty minutes, and shoot skyward at high speed after a second object appears to intercept it. Students who walk into the nearby field known as The Grange afterward find circular patches of flattened grass. Australian authorities attribute the sighting to a weather balloon, an explanation many witnesses reject, and researcher Shane Ryan later interviews dozens of them for the documentary "Westall '66: A Suburban UFO Mystery."Next comes the Pascagoula Abduction: shipyard coworkers Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker are fishing on the Pascagoula River in Mississippi on the night of October 11th, 1973, when a whirring oval craft with flashing lights hovers roughly forty feet above them and three robotic, wrinkled-skinned beings pull them aboard for what they describe as a twenty-minute physical examination. The men report the encounter to the local sheriff's office, which secretly records their conversation while leaving them alone in a room, capturing Hickson's visible distress rather than any hint of a hoax. Both men pass polygraph tests and undergo hypnosis, and UFO researchers J. Allen Hynek and James Harder investigate the case and find no evidence of fabrication.A similar pattern surfaces three years later in Maine, where twin brothers Jack and Jim Weiner and fellow art students Chuck Rak and Charlie Foltz are camping on Eagle Lake in the Allagash wilderness in August 1976 when a glowing orb appears to follow their canoe. After Charlie Foltz signals it with a flashlight, the light expands and engulfs the group, and the men find themselves back at a campsite fire that has burned down to embers with no memory of the intervening time. Years later, recurring nightmares send the four men to psychiatrist and UFO researcher Dr. Raymond Fowler, whose hypnotic regression sessions produce matching accounts of grey-alien medical examinations aboard a craft, a story that eventually reaches national audiences through "Unsolved Mysteries" and multiple books.Military personnel take center

Key Points Gamification in medical education can deeply engage learners and improve clinical skills. Rapid Sequence alternates between game blocks, where learners act in clinical scenarios, and teaching blocks, where insights are shared. True expertise is about developing effective cognitive strategies, not just accumulating knowledge. Building mental models involves not just learning, but practicing decision-making in complex environments. The learning environment should foster psychological safety and encourage growth through reflection and feedback. REBEL Rundown Introduction Welcome back to Rebel MIND, the podcast where we sharpen the person behind the practitioner. MIND stands for Mastering Internal Negativity during Difficulty. This series emphasizes productivity, provider performance, and team optimization to ensure we are at our best during high-pressure situations. In this episode, we introduce an innovative teaching tool called Rapid Sequence, aimed at revolutionizing how clinicians learn critical care through gamified experiences. With host Dr. Mark Ramzy, we invite Drs. Sarah Crager, and Ryan Ernst, to explore what it takes to become an expert and how gamification can transform learning in the medical field. Cognitive Question What does it truly mean to be an expert in emergency and critical care medicine? What Is Rapid Sequence?? It’s a gamified clinical case simulation tool consisting of different “blocks” where you have individual learners that can work through cases in non-multiple choice format. You’re basically working on shifts, seeing multiple patients with your team.There’s a cast of characters, interruptions, distractions, and you enter orders just like you would as if you were on shift, and then the cases advance to see the outcome of your decisions, good or badFor more information check it out the Rapid Sequence website here. Use the following Promo Code: REBEL2026 at checkout page to receive a 20% off couponFigure 1: Screenshot from Rapid Sequence showing the initial dashboard Learning Must Be An Active Not Passive Process An important part of the process when acquiring new skills or information is making it an active processIt is not just passively listening, but actively participating, providing answers that aren’t multiple choice, and then responding to the outcomeThis provides the engagement, and increases both the comprehension and retainability of new conceptsWhen you then apply those same concepts in future times of questioning (or in Rapid Sequence's case “Blocks”) it helps expedite active recall through spaced repetition How This Applies to the Emergency Department or ICU? In high-stakes environments like the ED or ICU, clinicians must make fast, informed decisions often without complete data. Rapid Sequence provides a simulated space where clinicians can make mistakes without risk to real patients, receive feedback, and build the cognitive resilience needed for actual shifts, mirroring the chaotic nature of these departments. Immediate Action Steps for Your Next Shift **Embrace Gamified Learning**: Engage with or seek out platforms like Rapid Sequence that offer a practice ground for real-world medical scenarios.**Develop Mental Models**: Start by breaking down complex cases into mental models that you can refer back to during your shift. **Prioritize Feedback and Reflection**: After each shift, allocate time to reflect on decisions and seek peer feedback to refine your cognitive strategies.**Foster a Safe Learning Environment**: Encourage open discussions in your team where all members can express uncertainties and learn from one another. Conclusion Embracing innovative teaching methodologies such as gamification can lead to significant improvements in clinical education and practice. By integrating tools like Rapid Sequence in training, healthcare professionals can not only enhance their skills but also foster a culture of continuous learning and psychological safety. Clinical Bottom Line Effective medical education isn’t about rote memorization—it’s about developing the ability to think critically and adapt rapidly in ever-changing environments. Gamified tools offer an engaging path to achieve true expertise, ensuring clinicians are well-equipped to provide the best patient care possible.

Zur Firmenwebseite: Watson Nutrition ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Redaktionelle Anmerkungen Zum Thema intuitive Ernährung und langfristige Gewichtsabnahme – ab 00:18:08 Intuitive Ernährung ist nicht grundsätzlich „größtenteils unerforscht“. Es liegen systematische Übersichtsarbeiten vor, insbesondere zu Essverhalten, Körperbild und psychischem Wohlbefinden. Begrenzter ist die Evidenz dafür, dass intuitive Ernährung langfristig zu einer relevanten Gewichtsabnahme oder automatisch zum Normalgewicht führt. Auch die Aussage, dass nach fünf Jahren über 90 Prozent der Menschen wieder ihr Ausgangsgewicht erreichen oder darüber liegen, ist in dieser Allgemeingültigkeit nicht ausreichend belegt. Gewichtszunahmen nach Diäten sind häufig, die Ergebnisse unterscheiden sich aber je nach Intervention, Personengruppe und Nachbetreuung deutlich. Zum Einfluss von Alkohol auf die Muskelproteinsynthese – ab 00:27:33 Die im Podcast genannten 10 bis 20 Prozent stimmen nicht mit der vermutlich gemeinten Studie überein. Nach einer sehr hohen Alkoholzufuhr von 1,5 Gramm pro Kilogramm Körpergewicht war die Muskelproteinsynthese trotz Proteinzufuhr etwa 24 Prozent und bei Alkohol plus Kohlenhydraten etwa 37 Prozent geringer. Untersucht wurde die kurzfristige Muskelproteinsynthese, nicht der langfristige Muskelaufbau. Ein einzelnes Bier macht eine Trainingseinheit dennoch nicht wertlos. Zum Zusammenhang zwischen Schlafmangel und Energieaufnahme – ab 01:33:50 Die genannten 300 bis 400 zusätzlichen Kilokalorien beziehen sich nicht auf jede einzelne Stunde Schlafmangel. Eine Meta-Analyse zeigte unter experimentell verkürzten Schlafbedingungen im Durchschnitt eine etwa 385 Kilokalorien höhere tägliche Energieaufnahme als unter normalen Schlafbedingungen. Zum Einfluss von Hormonen auf das Abnehmen – ab 01:50:36 Hormone sind nicht lediglich eine Folge des Lebensstils. Besonders während der Menopause können hormonelle Veränderungen Körperzusammensetzung, Fettverteilung, Appetit und möglicherweise den Energieverbrauch beeinflussen. Sie setzen die Energiebilanz jedoch nicht außer Kraft, können die Gewichtskontrolle aber erschweren. Quellenverzeichnis Al Khatib, H. K., Harding, S. V., Darzi, J., & Pot, G. K. (2017).

Wade has completely reshaped the abortion access landscape in America.“There's this irony that's actually happened,” says Dr. Angel Foster, an abortion provider and researcher. “Tragically, 33 to 40 percent of women of reproductive age now have less of a right to an abortion. But access for many people has increased.” Foster is the founder of the Massachusetts Medication Abortion Access Project, a clinic whose work is one major player in why abortions are up. Massachusetts and almost half the states in the US have passed shield laws that legally protect abortion providers. The one Foster operates under allows her to prescribe abortion pills to patients in states with abortion bans. And while the battleground may be shifting as medication abortions grow more common, the war is far from over. This week on Reveal, we explore post-Roe America through the eyes of three women with three very different missions: Foster, who offers medication abortions nationwide; a courier who risks arrest to stockpile abortion pills for an uncertain future; and a conservative activist whose life's work is trying to stop them both.

Creating a Family: Talk about Infertility, Adoption & Foster Care
Drop us some Fan Mail. Thanks!Question: Our adopted son is almost 4 months old and perfectly healthy. He eats well, sleeps well, and seems to be hitting his milestones just fine. We know that he was exposed to cocaine during pregnancy, but he was born only three weeks early, which is still full-term. He had a healthy birth weight, he was not suffering from withdrawal in the hospital, and he has checked out as perfectly healthy at all of his pediatrician visits so far. My question is, does the lack of negative effects of cocaine in these early months of his life give us any indication of whether or not he will have learning difficulties or development issues due to the cocaine when he reaches school age? I am curious whether there is any research showing that a lack of symptoms at a young age following prenatal exposure indicates fewer symptoms at an older age.

En este episodio os cuento mis impresiones después de ver la nueva película de Spider-Man protagonizada por Tom Holland, esta vez en 3D. La experiencia me ha dejado sensaciones encontradas: por un lado, la película me ha parecido espectacular, pero el 3D no me ha convencido. Las gafas me resultaron algo incómodas y creo que oscurecen bastante la imagen, haciendo que se pierda parte de la calidad visual.También hablo de la historia, que me ha parecido muy emotiva y, en algunos momentos, bastante triste. Ver cómo el protagonista ya no es recordado por las personas que más quiere le da un toque muy diferente a la saga.Después del cine tocó cena en Foster's Hollywood con mis hijos, aunque después de haberse puesto las botas con los nachos con queso en el cine apenas tenían hambre. Al final terminé pidiendo una pechuga que acabó siendo la comida del día siguiente.Un episodio tranquilo, grabado mientras doy un paseo, compartiendo una opinión sincera sobre la película y alguna anécdota de la tarde.✅ Suscríbete al canal:https://www.youtube.com/@laopiniondemarm

Seventy episodes in, and we've marked it with one of the most remarkable conversations we've had!Michelle Carr first joined us back in Episode 48, sitting firmly on the other side of the fence. A welder by trade, dog enthusiast by nature, deep into ethology, breed history and genetics...she came on to make the case for racing.Then she reflected. Listened back. Started examining her arguments, going right through the stewards' reports, the economics and the research, until she'd written a full piece of her own:
Andrew Golden joins the show to explain why he believes Washington should keep Foster Griffin at the deadline.

In part 2 of this episode of The Phoenix Cast, Violence Prevention Educator Cassandra Carmona-Wayman (she/hers/ella) continues her conversation with reproductive health advocate Cristina Ponce (she/hers) about Abortion Access, Reproductive Coercion, and Survivor Autonomy. Cristina shares her abortion story and shares her lived experiences with these topics. We also unpack how shifting laws, financial barriers, and crisis pregnancy centers impact survivor autonomy and safety. We highlight practical resources like abortion funds, doulas, travel support, and trusted clinic locators. We also break down myths about medication abortion and centering abortion as both healthcare and a crucial safety option for survivors of violence.Content warnings: discussion of abortion (including personal and self-managed abortion stories), reproductive coercion, intimate partner and interpersonal violence, sexual violence (including rape and sexual coercion), pregnancy-related homicide risk, and anti-abortion harassment/misinformation.Additionally:We discuss healthcare clinics and abortion providers near the Denver Metro area. Please be aware of clinics that misrepresent their services and can appear misleading to patients in need of care. Some “crisis pregnancy centers” near campus and in Denver are not medical clinics and may offer misleading or incomplete information about abortion and pregnancy options. When you can, seek licensed providers or clinics that clearly offer full-spectrum reproductive healthcare, and remember you can reach out to the Phoenix Center at Auraria for confidential support and accurate referrals.Sources and Resources mentioned in the episode:American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

What separates an average automotive salesperson from someone capable of selling more than 40 cars per month? "The more you familiarize yourself with the customer, the more you're going to be able to use that for yourself to build your business as a car salesman." - Josh MacPhee In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley sits down with Josh MacPhee, a top-performing sales consultant at McDonald Buick GMC Cadillac in Moncton, Canada, who sold an incredible 326 vehicles in only his second year in the automotive industry and went on to achieve a 40-car month. Josh reveals the mindset, daily habits, customer-service strategies, and modern tools that helped him rapidly build a powerful client base. From relentless follow-up and constant availability to using social media as a relationship-building engine, his approach challenges the traditional way many sales professionals operate. "Be kind, be honest, really help people, and care about what they're trying to accomplish in buying a vehicle from you." - Josh MacPhee You'll also hear how Josh transformed his experience working in a skateboard shop into a thriving automotive career, multiplied his results far beyond industry averages, and created relationships that continue producing business long after the initial sale. Whether you are brand-new to the showroom or an experienced salesperson looking to break through a performance plateau, this episode delivers practical strategies you can immediately adapt to generate more conversations, strengthen customer loyalty, and sell more vehicles. The numbers are impressive, but the process behind them is where the real value lives. Listen now to discover what Josh does differently. Key Takeaways: ✅ Building strong customer relationships and offering exceptional service are central to achieving consistent high sales figures. ✅ Utilizing social media platforms such as Facebook and Facebook Marketplace can significantly increase referral-based sales. ✅ Regular and effective follow-up is critical in maintaining customer interest and converting leads into sales. ✅ Working closely with managers and leveraging their expertise can help refine sales techniques and improve results. ✅ Embracing technology and community engagement can create additional pathways to expand a personal brand and reach in automotive sales. About Josh MacPhee Josh MacPhee is a dynamic and successful automotive sales consultant at McDonald Buick GMC Cadillac in Moncton, Canada. With a notable track record of selling 326 units in his second full year and achieving a remarkable 40-car month, Josh has swiftly risen as an influential figure in car sales. Prior to his career in the automotive industry, Josh honed his customer service skills by working at a retail skateboard shop, where he was responsible for cultivating customer relations and building sales initiatives. His commitment to customer service, strategic use of social media for networking, and relentless follow-up tactics are key elements of his sales approach, enabling him to far exceed the national sales averages within his industry. Josh continues to push boundaries and set new records in automotive sales by constantly evolving and adapting his strategies. Embracing the Grind: How Relentless Follow-Up and Customer Service Revolutionize Car Sales Key Takeaways: Emphasize the importance of continuous growth and development, even in challenging markets. Foster a relentless commitment to customer service and follow-up. Leverage technology and team dynamics to excel in sales performance. Relentless Customer Service and Follow-Up in Car Sales In the competitive world of car sales, consistency is key. Josh MacPhee's story illustrates how relentless follow-up and exemplary customer service can create extraordinary success in an environment where most salespeople average less than ten cars monthly. The approach is simple yet profound: make it easy for the customer and be accessible, whether on weekends, late at night, or even during holidays. MacPhee, a sales consultant at McDonald Buick GMC Cadillac in Moncton, Canada, credits his success to these values. "I just talk so much and create such a personal level with my conversations that they want to come back," explains MacPhee. His willingness to take calls late a night and work during off-hours underscores a broader principle: in a performance-based industry, accessibility can set you apart from competitors. This dedication to being available whenever the customer needs support leaves a lasting impact, evidenced by customers who choose him because he's consistently available and knowledgeable. "You wasted no time to get back to me and talk to me the whole time you were off on vacation," a customer reportedly said, highlighting trust and reliability as cornerstones of MacPhee's successful strategy. Building a Sales Network through Referrals and Community Engagement Effective car sales extend beyond the dealership floor—into community networking and robust referral systems. For MacPhee, referrals significantly contribute to his sales numbers. "We offer $200 for a referral," he states, a small investment when aiming for a fruitful long-lasting business relationship. Beyond financial incentives, MacPhee emphasizes relationship-building by engaging customers on social media platforms like Facebook, maintaining the connection long after the initial sale. Moreover, MacPhee leverages local insights and community relationships. "If it's legit, think about this: why the hell would you not want to incentivize somebody?" he argues, stressing the value of forging lasting connections within the community. Understanding local relevance, he primes his sales strategy by ensuring his presence is acknowledged beyond the transactional relationship, positioning himself as a reliable advisor in the community. By fostering deep ties, both digital and personal, MacPhee's strategy aligns with broader community-focused practices that drive sustained success. His approach taps into a natural cycle—prioritize existing relationships to expand business, maximizing opportunities for referral-based prospects in a strategy that feeds itself. Harnessing Technology and Team Dynamics In an era where technology plays a transformative role, integrating modern tools into traditional sales processes offers a distinct advantage. However, at McDonald Buick GMC Cadillac, MacPhee sees a fusion of personal effort and minimal tech dependence. "Artificial intelligence? What do you mean?" Queries MacPhee, indicating an opportunity for technological advancement that complements his human-centric approach. Still, the power of a cohesive work environment shouldn't be underestimated. Through collaboration with managers and peers, he builds a reservoir of sales knowledge and refined tactics. Allying with mentors and learning actively, MacPhee draws from a collective base of expertise that deepens individual knowledge, especially for complex negotiations. "It's important because you're getting a second person in to talk," MacPhee shares, emphasizing the value of team-based sales processes. Such environments promote skill sharing and adaptive learning, as colleagues become resources rather than competitors. Thus, success grows not only from independent initiative but from thriving in a supportive team context. Josh MacPhee's story champions the idea that diligence, customer engagement, and a strategic approach to relationships can transcend the industry norm, catapulting sales beyond expected metrics. Insights from his journey reveal that relentless dedication to customers and collaborative learning environments can redefine success. Though not overly reliant on modern technology, salespeople like MacPhee showcase the power of grinding hard, building a network, and making each customer interaction meaningful. Through this lens, car sales emerge not as a routine job, but as a dynamic business driven by personalities who exceed boundaries through sheer tenacity and astute connection-making.

When you hear the words “foster care” what do you think about? Or more importantly, who do you think about? The child? The social worker? The birth parents? Foster parents? If it sounds complicated, you're right.. So what can you do to help change a complicated situation into a blessing? On this week's show, Kurt and Chad welcome three men who have been involved in the foster care process. They give a father's perspective on how society (including those in the church) have either intentionally or unintentionally turned a blind eye toward a problem that effects so many. There are 437,000 kids in foster care in the US. 25% have had parents rights terminated. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)

Conrad Black disputes Prime Minister Mark Carney's characterization of Canada as a "middle power," arguing the term is obsolete for a G7 nation with a larger economy than Russia. He critiques Carney's attempt to foster ties with China, noting China's "tatters" economy and history of disregarding trade agreements. Black maintains that Canada should prioritize its vital relationship with the U.S. while embracing a more ambitious and patriotic view of its global influence. (15)
