In this episode, we detail the structure and function of the intestinal mucosal barrier, highlighting key roles that zinc plays in supporting various aspects of mucosal barrier integrity. We detail key anatomical features, including the mucus layer, epithelial cells, and tight junctions, before discussing zinc's physiological roles, its relationship with copper, and factors that can affect zinc levels. The discussion further details mechanistic features of zinc absorption as well as specialized forms such as zinc carnosine.Topics:1. Introduction - Overview of intestinal hyperpermeability and intestinal barrier function- Highlighting the role of zinc 2. Intestinal Barrier Anatomy - Four major layers: mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa, serosa- Mucosa subdivisions; focus on epithelium  3. The Mucus Layer  - Location over the epithelial surface- Composition: mucin-rich, secreted by goblet cells- Goblet cell mucin storage and expansion upon hydration- Functions: trapping pathogens, lubricating epithelium, housing molecules including secretory IgA- Small intestine mucus - Large intestine mucus 4. The Intestinal Epithelium - Monolayer of epithelial cells: enterocytes, goblet cells, and more- Tight junctions, paracellular transport - Continuous epithelial renewal 5. Introduction to Zinc - Zinc as a trace mineral required in minute quantities for numerous physiological processes - Second most abundant trace mineral after iron; majority stored in muscle and bone- Maintaining plasma and intracellular zinc concentrations within narrow range- Both deficiency and excess can disrupt biochemical processes 6. Zinc and Copper  - Zinc and copper as closely interconnected minerals- Zinc, copper, and metallothionein binding in enterocytes- Both high and low zinc can disrupt zinc-copper balance- Metallothionein as a cysteine-rich metal-binding protein  7. Factors Affecting Zinc Levels  - Multifactorial- Possible signs of low zinc status 8. Zinc Absorption  - Dietary sources- Primary absorption in small intestine - In the stomach: HCl and pepsin denature proteins and cleave peptide bonds, releasing zinc from protein complexes- Dietary zinc often bound within tertiary protein structure- Specialized transporters  9.

In this episode Ann talks with Margaret Morgan Grasselli and Elizabeth Savage about their new, massive book, Printing Colour 1700–1830: Histories, Techniques, Functions, and Receptions (Oxford: Oxford University Press and the British Academy, 2025). The book, coming in at nearly 450 pages with 350 illustrations, is a landmark study blowing open a new field of study in print history. It offers a deep dive into a rich period of invention, experimentation, and creativity surrounding color printing in Europe between two critically important developments: four-color separation printing around 1710, and chromolithography around 1830. In their conversation, they talk about various aspects of color printing as it applies to both fine art and utilitarian goods like security printing for paper notes, advertisements, fashion, and household goods. They talk about the historical significance and technical details of color printing, the role of women in the field, and the socio-political influences of that era. And they talk about managing such a huge project and the importance of this work as a foundational study that opens up new avenues for future research. Show me the images!!

An episode from Queanbeyan Bible Baptist Church (QBBC), a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located near Canberra, NSW Australia. What QBBC believes about the Holy Bible: That both verbal and plenary inspiration applies to the Scriptures known as the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament Canon.  That is, that God literally breathed His words and that every part of the Scriptures is the Word of God.  2 Timothy 3:16. We believe that God preserved His words as he promised to do. These words are preserved in the original languages of Hebrew and Greek exactly the way He intended them to be without need of addition or subtraction to any part of them. We also believe that the doctrine of inspiration is of no value without the doctrine of preservation.   We believe that the doctrine of inspiration is of no value without the doctrine of preservation. Therefore, the Authorized King James Version of 1611, is the perfect, preserved, inspired, infallible, inerrant Word of God for English speaking people. Simply, the Authorized King James Version is the Scriptures in English. It should be read, memorized, obeyed, and trusted as the very words of God as He intended them to be. The King James Bible is superior to any other version available and is the final authority in all matters. Exodus 24:3; Deuteronomy 6:6-9; 29:29; Joshua 1:8; Job 23:12; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; James 1:22.

By David Stephen Consciousness science research of present-day is irrelevant, because on the two biggest stages in brain science: psychiatry and neurology, nothing from consciousness research is useful or applicable. There is no buzz around consciousness science because there is nothing promising. Even AI sentience research - which would be important to superintelligence, artificial general intelligence [AGI], AI safety, AI alignment, energy efficiency for data centers, solving hallucinations and so forth - is trashed. To make progress in consciousness science, with all its likely usefulness, a team would have to completely ignore everything in the field today and start afresh. Anything borrowed from existing theories or philosophy or whatever would doom it. OpenAI could be that team, given their success in exploding attention heads. To begin research in consciousness or for AI sentience, it is possible to start from another successful application today: GLP-1. How will OpenAI impact on Consciousness and AI Sentience? There is a recent spotlight from the School of Public Health at Brown University, A turning point in addiction psychiatry?, stating that, "These are GLP-1 receptor agonists. They're not just peptides like exenatide. They bind to specific receptors in the brain, especially in areas tied to the reward system: the ventral tegmental area, nucleus accumbens, prefrontal cortex. These regions regulate dopamine and motivation. By targeting these receptors, the drugs blunt dopamine release and reduce reward signaling. That means people feel less driven to seek out food, alcohol or drugs. That's the crux of how these medications may help with cravings." What does it mean to not crave food? The question can be transplanted to, if there is a lesion, what does it mean to not feel pain from it? It could be possible to need food but not crave it. It is possible to be having a meal but not want more. It is possible there is a situation for pain, but to not feel that pain. How does the brain make these determinations? A simple description could be that there can be a function, but the measure of that function may not reach a certain threshold to bear attention. So, while some situations may require attention, if the measure for attention is not attained, it may not get it. How does this explain consciousness? Functions have attributes that measure them. It is the collection of these attributes that can be defined, conceptually, as consciousness. This explanation can be used to develop a test, or a standard to measure consciousness, in AI, non-human organisms and in humans. Questions of how functions are mechanized or how attributes come together can be theoretically explored. However, to narrow the objective for a standard, functions and attributes are targets. Language GLP-1s are as neuroscientific as anything can get. They are not philosophical or some disconnected theory of consciousness. If memory is a function and language is a subdivision of that function, what are the attributes that make language use possible? What attributes make language use seek outcomes of other functions - like emotions and feelings? Is language processed [much] differently from pain, pleasure, cravings or other subdivisions of feelings and emotions? For humans, language use can be conscious. Language - speaking, listening, reading, writing, signing, singing - can be in attention or less than attention. Language can be subjective [or self or individualized]. Language also carries intent [or control or some free will], in how it is done properly. These attributes, attention, less than attention [or say awareness], subjectivity [sense of existence, as a chatbot] and intent are all attributes that ChatGPT and other AI chatbots use. For language alone, as a subdivision of a function [memory], it is possible to develop a measure for AI sentience. All the noise about AI is not sentient or AI consciousness is not possible would have to present a counter ...

In the world of ceramics, temporary binders play a crucial role in improving the cohesion and workability of slips.These substances, often polymer-based, act on a chemical level by creating bonds between particles, increasing the mechanical strength of the mixture.In this episode, we explore what they are, how they work, and why they are essential in modern ceramic processes.

You're not alone.   In this eye-opening episode of The OCD Whisperer Podcast, host Kristina Orlova sits down with Juliet Gustafson , a Michigan-based OCD therapist and professor, to explore the often-misunderstood world of Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs)—like hair pulling (trichotillomania), skin picking, and nail biting. Far from mere "bad habits," these behaviors are complex disorders tied to emotions, sensory triggers, and even biology. Juliette breaks down the five key drivers behind BFRBs: sensory satisfaction, cognitive patterns, emotional states, motor habits, and environmental cues.   You'll learn how to distinguish between occasional grooming and compulsive behaviors, discover practical strategies for intervention (like replacement movements and awareness tools), and explore compassionate approaches to self-management. The episode also highlights vital resources, including the TLC Foundation, HabitAware's smart bracelets, and supportive communities like BFRB Changemakers.   Whether you're struggling with BFRBs or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers hope, clarity, and actionable steps to reclaim control—plus a reminder: healing is possible.   The 3 things you'll learn in  today's episode: Why BFRBs are more than habits—they're coping mechanisms. How to identify your personal triggers and replace harmful behaviors. Where to find support, tools, and expert-backed solutions. In This Episode [00:00] Introduction  [00:45] Juliette's academic and professional background [01:12] Defining body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs) [02:22] Recognizing BFRBs and their impact [03:28] Identifying and understanding BFRBs in yourself [04:19] Managing and exploring BFRBs [05:29] Functions and triggers of BFRBs [09:04] Replacing and modifying BFRB habits [10:58] Awareness and control in BFRBs [12:54] Intervening and self-compassion [13:44] Tools and resources for BFRBs [15:20] Additional BFRB resources and communities [17:27] Encouragement and self-kindness [18:28] The Fidget Podcast and more resources [18:28] OCD representation in media [19:23] Closing and podcast outro Our Guest Juliet Gustafson  is a licensed OCD therapist based in Michigan, a part-time professor at Wayne State University's School of Social Work, and co-host of the Intrusive Plots podcast, which explores OCD representation in film and TV. With a deep passion for helping people better understand and manage OCD and related conditions, Juliette brings both clinical expertise and lived experience into her work. Through therapy, advocacy, and education, she's helping break the stigma around misunderstood struggles like BFRBs.

Dive into the powerful "Flows and Functions" method—a practical, proven framework that breaks down your business into five key areas: lead generation, lead nurture, conversion, delivery, and retention. Learn how to pinpoint your biggest bottleneck and fix it strategically so you can scale sustainably and stop spinning your wheels. Packed with real-world insights and actionable tips, this episode will help you regain clarity, increase revenue, and build a business that flows.   “So when you use intuition on where should I be focused, do it alongside looking at the truth, looking at what's actually broken.”   Key points to focus on: Success Can Still Feel Chaotic Even during high-revenue months (like hitting $100K+), a business can feel overwhelming and unstable without systems and focus in place. The "Flows and Bottlenecks" Method is Essential Businesses have five core functions—lead generation, lead nurture, conversion, delivery, and retention—and identifying the weakest link (bottleneck) is key to sustainable growth. Diagnose Before You Act Most entrepreneurs fix what's easiest or most urgent, rather than what's actually broken. Using data and honest self-assessment is crucial to determining the real problem. Lead Nurture is Often Overlooked Many coaches think they need more leads, but often the issue lies in nurturing and converting existing leads more effectively—like optimizing email or content strategy. Let Data Guide, Not Emotions Don't let fear or ego dictate business priorities. Use intuition, but validate it with measurable insights to make smart, grounded decisions. Use the Project-Process-Person Framework Once the bottleneck is identified, tackle it using this trio: define a project, create a process around it, and assign the right person (including yourself) to execute or support it.     Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland

The extended leadership team (those just below the C-suite) often finds itself stuck between translating strategy and triaging dysfunction. They're tasked with cross-functional execution, but are rarely equipped, empowered, or aligned to pull it off. And in most organizations, this group is caught in a cycle of managing up, managing down, and managing chaos all around—with very little time or clarity left to lead. This week, Rodney and Sam take a closer look at what's really going on with extended leadership teams, why they matter so much, and what gets in their way. From power dynamics and peer competition to vertical incentives and missing cross-functional glue, they pull apart the system that makes this group so hard to organize—and so critical to transformation. They also share field-tested tactics that can turn this underutilized layer into an OS-upgrading powerhouse. -------------------------------- Let's work together: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.theready.com/working-together⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-sixth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by CSM Bill Gallant, the Command Sergeant Major of Ops Group (CSMOG). Today's guests are four seasoned infantry task force command sergeants major. CSM Lucas Young is the TF CSM for Task Force 2 (IN BN) with ten rotations as an Observer – Coach – Trainer and four rotations as a rotational training unit. CSM Bryan Jaragoske is the TF CSM for Brigade Command & Control (BDE HQ) with three rotations as an OCT and five rotations as RTU. CSM Edwards Cummings is the TF CSM for Task Force 3 (IN BN) with nineteen rotations as an OCT and four rotations as RTU. And CSM Robert Absher is the TF CSM for Task Force 1 (IN BN) with four rotations as an OCT and eight rotations as RTU. In this episode of ‘The Crucible,' the conversation centers on the evolving and enduring role of noncommissioned officers (NCOs) in infantry warfighting during large-scale combat operations (LSCO). The discussion highlights how NCOs are stepping up in planning processes—especially in course of action development—providing ground truth from the field, validating feasibility, and integrating fire and maneuver. NCOs' battlefield experience enables them to shape planning guidance, refine timelines, and ensure plans account for realistic sustainment, movement, and transition conditions. The panel underscores the importance of rehearsals and timelines, the application of fieldcraft, camouflage, deception, and understanding terrain—not just through mapping, but through hands-on analysis and feedback. The episode also explores how infantry NCOs are central to managing the fight during transitions, supporting fire planning, and leading security zone operations.   A recurring theme is the necessity of blending technological advancement with mastery of fundamentals. The speakers caution against overreliance on tech like ATACs or drones without maintaining proficiency in basic soldiering skills such as map and compass navigation or patrolling under load. The conversation moves through sustainment challenges, especially medical evacuation, logistics discipline, and terrain management, offering best practices like rehearsing casualty evacuation and involving junior leaders in sustainment planning. Ultimately, the discussion affirms that well-trained, thinking NCOs—those who know the commander's intent and can adapt when the plan breaks—are vital to combat effectiveness. Leadership, initiative, and the ability to bridge modernization with the realities of the battlefield form the cornerstone of successful infantry operations in LSCO.   Part of S03 “Lightfighter Lessons” series.   For additional information and insights from this episode, please check-out our Instagram page @the_jrtc_crucible_podcast.   Be sure to follow us on social media to keep up with the latest warfighting TTPs learned through the crucible that is the Joint Readiness Training Center.   Follow us by going to: https://linktr.ee/jrtc and then selecting your preferred podcast format.   Again, we'd like to thank our guests for participating.

In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Andrew Winkler explores the psychology behind decision-making and how personality type influences whether we act quickly or hesitate. Drawing from John Cleese's idea of the “last responsible moment,” Dr. Andy explains how people fall into two camps: those who feel pressure to decide quickly, and those who grow anxious if forced to decide too soon.By breaking down cognitive functions—like thinking, feeling, sensing, and intuition—Dr. Andy shows how each of us has unique strengths we either turn outward or inward. These preferences not only impact how we process decisions but also how we interact with the world. This episode brings clarity to the mechanics behind Myers-Briggs types and what it means to be a "judger" or a "perceiver" at your core.In this episode, you will learn:(00:30) – Why John Cleese's “last responsible moment” is a powerful lens for understanding decision-making(01:10) – How personality types influence whether you feel rushed or delayed when making decisions(02:00) – The four core cognitive functions and how they shape how we gather and evaluate information(03:10) – What it means to turn your strongest mental functions inward or outward—and how it affects your interactions(04:30) – Why your dominant extroverted function determines your decision-making comfort zone(05:40) – How all of this connects to the Myers-Briggs personality model—and what it means for real-life choicesLet's connect!linktr.ee/drprandy Hosted on Acast.

When it comes to successful interventions, knowing the “why” behind behaviors is key. As practitioners, we may have learned in school that there are four functions of behavior: escape, attention, tangible, and sensory. However, in practice, things aren't always so cut and dry. Here, we dive into the roles of antecedents, triggers, and functions so we can better understand what drives challenging behavior.In this conversation, we discuss setting events and how what comes right before a behavior helps us understand a learner's missing skills. We look at how to best determine the function of a behavior and how to teach appropriate replacement skills. We also discuss synthesized reinforcement, the importance of conducting a functional behavior assessment, and reinforcement strategies.

A Garden Chat with Don TitmusJoin Farmer Greg Peterson and Don Titmus, a horticulturist and permaculturist as they reflect on their 20-year friendship and shared journey in permaculture. They outline the fundamental principles of permaculture. They introduce the concepts from permaculture of elements, zones and stacking functions, where each element in a design performs multiple roles, using chickens as a primary example. They look at how zones and sectors work in permaculture design, emphasizing the importance of understanding the external elements and how they impact the property. Greg and Don also mention the Permaculture Design Course (PDC) they offer, tailored for different climatic regions, and encourage in-person attendance for enriched learning. They conclude by encouraging contributions to support their educational efforts and thank viewers for participating.Our Guest: Don grew up in London and at age 16 spent 4 years being trained in horticulture through an apprenticeship and a college course. From there he continued landscaping in his hometown until he moved to Arizona in 1981, where he worked in landscaping and then starting his own business in garden maintenance. In 2003 he attended a Permaculture Design Course, which was life-changing for Don.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explore how your sense of smell (olfaction), taste, and chemical sensing influence memory, alertness, focus, and even communication between people. I explain how these senses help us detect chemicals in the environment and respond to a variety of environmental cues. I discuss the connection between the olfactory system and cognitive performance, and I provide practical tools to enhance learning, sensory function, and brain health. Additionally, I examine how chemical signals exchanged between people subtly influence emotions, biology, and social bonds. Huberman Lab Essentials episodes are approximately 30 minutes long and focus on key science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials are released every Thursday, while full-length episodes continue to air every Monday. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

This week, Matt dismantles the myth that REM sleep only benefits the mind by revealing its profound importance for physical health. While deep sleep handles some repair, Matt details how REM is crucial for peak testosterone and growth hormone release, vital for muscle, bone, libido, tissue repair, and metabolism. He explains that REM's characteristic muscle paralysis (atonia) isn't just for safety; it fosters physical recovery by enabling deep muscle relaxation, boosting blood flow, lowering cortisol, and regulating inflammatory cytokines.Matt further explores how REM resets the body's thermostat, enhances cardiovascular health through heart rate variability, and improves lung function via unique breathing patterns. This vital stage also supports genital tissue health, significantly ramps up protein synthesis for muscle repair, and strengthens the immune system by promoting essential cells and cytokines. Matt concludes that protecting REM sleep is non-negotiable, as it serves as a cornerstone for both mental and essential physical restoration and function.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Matt will be the first to tell you that launching his sleep-related merchandise sales was incredibly smooth, thanks to our new sponsor Shopify and their integrated sales and inventory system.
