    Time Outs: Helpful or harmful? Here's what the research says Pediatricians and researchers commonly recommend that parents use time outs when kids misbehave.  Time outs are promoted as an effective, evidence-based parenting strategy - although the real reason they're so highly recommended is that they cause less damage to children than hitting. But if we're already using respectful/gentle parenting strategies most of the time, could there be any benefit to adding time outs when our children don't comply with more gentle methods? This episode delves into the research on: Which children and families researchers think time outs are effective for (it's not the same group of children who are usually study participants!); The precise time out script that has been shown to be effective (and why it works); Whether time outs harm children or not (this is one of the biggest controversies in the Gentle Parenting world) If you've heard that time out is an effective strategy to gain children's cooperation but weren't sure whether it fits with your Gentle Parenting approach, this episode will help you to decide for yourself whether it's a good fit for you and your family.

    Nehemiah 1:1-11 The words of Nehemiah the son of Hacaliah. Now it happened in the month of Chislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in Susa the citadel, 2 that Hanani, one of my brothers, came with certain men from Judah. And I asked them concerning the Jews who escaped, who had survived the exile, and concerning Jerusalem. 3 And they said to me, “The remnant there in the province who had survived the exile is in great trouble and shame. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates are destroyed by fire.” 4 As soon as I heard these words I sat down and wept and mourned for days, and I continued fasting and praying before the God of heaven. 5 And I said, “O Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, 6 let your ear be attentive and your eyes open, to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for the people of Israel your servants, confessing the sins of the people of Israel, which we have sinned against you. Even I and my father's house have sinned. 7 We have acted very corruptly against you and have not kept the commandments, the statutes, and the rules that you commanded your servant Moses.8 Remember the word that you commanded your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the peoples, 9 but if you return to me and keep my commandments and do them, though your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven, from there I will gather them and bring them to the place that I have chosen, to make my name dwell there.' 10 They are your servants and your people, whom you have redeemed by your great power and by your strong hand. 11 O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of your servant, and to the prayer of your servants who delight to fear your name, and give success to your servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.” Now I was cupbearer to the king.

Staying power is as important as going out into the field. Recovery from failure is possible and necessary in ministry. Generosity should be extraordinary, not just token offerings. Unity in purpose and resources can lead to significant outcomes. Celebrating milestones helps to motivate and inspire further action. The church must support those who are struggling to recover.

    Welcome to Art Is... Season 6, Episode 7Episode Overview:From her roots in Ojai, California, artist Leslie Clark (Nomad Gal) shares her transformative 30-year journey that immersed her in the nomadic communities of Niger. Through candid conversation, Leslie reveals how her artistic path took her from the South of France through South America and Ethiopia, ultimately leading to Niger, where she spent 15 years living and painting with nomadic communities.Key Topics Covered:- Early artistic journey at art school and travels through France, Central & South America, and Ethiopia- Life-changing encounter with Niger's nomadic communities in 1993- Evolution of artistic practice through cultural immersion- Historical context of regions and communities, Niger/Libya after fall of Gaddafi- Founding and mission of the Nomad Foundation, beginning with the purchase of a single cow for $200 and evolving into an organization that has positively impacted tens of thousands of people - Building sustainable opportunities while preserving traditions, especially for midwives and traditional healthcare providers - Her personal transformation and experiences as a privileged minority - Navigating colonial legacy and cultural appropriation in art- Approach to respectful cultural exchange and representation- Building authentic relationships versus 'othering' communities- Her upcoming bookConclusion:Leslie's story embodies the transformative power of art and cultural exchange. Her adventurous spirit and deep connection to nomadic communities offer a refreshing perspective in our digitally saturated world. Through her forthcoming book and the Nomad Foundation's work, she continues to bridge worlds and create meaningful change. As she notes: "I am an artist/painter who has always traveled. When I first met the nomads in Niger in 1993, my life changed - it changed the way I painted and the way I looked at the world. Since then I have built a home in this adopted country where I spend part of every year and founded a non-profit called the Nomad Foundation which tries to bring opportunity to nomadic people while respecting their traditions." Her advice to young artists resonates with timeless wisdom: don't be afraid, and progress through small, incremental stepsSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/art-is/donations

    The Invention of Palestine: A Historical and Linguistic Narrative In this episode, we explore the historical and linguistic roots of the term "Palestine," ‎tracing its origins to the Roman designation "Syria Palaestina," given to the land of Israel by ‎Emperor Hadrian following the Bar Kokhba revolt. The name "Palaestina" was derived from ‎the ancient Philistines, with the term "Philistia" in Greek (Φυλιστίη) reflecting their ‎presence along the coastal regions of ancient Israel. We also examine the Hebrew ‎perspective: the word "Paleshtim" (‎פְּלִשְׁתִּים‎) in the Hebrew Bible refers to the Philistines, a ‎distinct people in the ancient land of Israel. The modern term "Palestine" in Hebrew, ‎‎"Filistin" (‎פְּלִשְׁתִּין‎), continues to evoke this connection. By looking at 19th-century travelers ‎like Mark Twain and Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, we show how the region was observed before ‎the Jewish return, challenging the notion that Palestine was ever solely an Arab land. The ‎episode highlights the enduring connection between the Jewish people and this land, both ‎historically and linguistically.

    Episode #102 - In this heartfelt episode of the Awakened Heart Podcast, I sit down with Brownell Landrum, a talented writer and storyteller whose nomadic lifestyle deeply influences her creative work. Brownell shares how she follows her intuition, guided by what she calls “traffic angels,” and the ways surrendering to life's flow has shaped her path.  Brownell is an author, inventor, songwriter, and explorer of metaphysical mysteries. In addition to being the host and executive producer of the Life is a Trip Reincarnation Stories Podcast and the author of The End  and the upcoming We Meet Again trilogy, she is the author of over a dozen books and screenplays ranging from nonfiction (Five Reasons Why Bad Things Happen) to fiction including The DUET stories novel series, children's books, and more. We dive into powerful themes like reincarnation, historical inspirations, and the impact of events like the Black Plague on her storytelling. Our conversation also touches on the magic of synchronicities, the deeper “why” behind life's challenges, and how spiritual beliefs influence her creativity and daily life. Join me as Brownell and I reflect on what it truly means to live with an awakened heart. Takeaways Brownell's nomadic lifestyle shapes her writing journey. Writing across genres allows for a unique exploration of themes. Traffic angels play a significant role in guiding life decisions. Surrendering to intuition can lead to profound experiences. Reincarnation is a central theme in Brownell's work. Historical characters enrich her storytelling. The Black Plague serves as a backdrop for exploring human experiences. Synchronicities can guide us toward our true path. Understanding the 'why' behind challenges can lead to healing. Sharing stories of reincarnation opens minds to new possibilities. Sound Bites "I had to surrender and let go." "Everything happens for a reason." "I want to learn through joy."

    Xue, Guisen, O. Felix Offodile, Rouzbeh Razavi, Dong-Heon Kwak, and Jose Benitez. "Addressing staffing challenges through improved planning: Demand-driven course schedule planning and instructor assignment in higher education." Decision Support Systems 187 (2024): 114345. This paper presents a novel decision support system (DSS) to address the University Course Timetabling Problem (UCTP). The solution decomposes the NP-complete UCTP into two sub-problems, allowing a structured approach to addressing the complexities inherent in the UCTP process. A mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model is proposed to integrate academic year course schedule planning and instructor assignment, accommodating various constraints to meet student demands. The model optimizes the number of course sections and strategically schedules instructors, aiming to reduce the number of new and distinct courses assigned to them. Historical data from an academic department encompassing multiple disciplines, including Computer Information Systems, Business Management, and Business Analytics, at a large public university in the U.S. is used to develop the model, and the results are compared with the actual course schedule and instructor assignment. The results demonstrate that the proposed DSS would result in a 14% reduction in the number of course sections offered, translating to approximately $130,000 in annual savings. Additionally, it could significantly reduce the number of new courses assigned to instructors by up to 81% and the number of distinct course sections assigned to them by 29%.

    Nathan Jones, the CEO of Xlear, global leader in creating natural, convenient, xylitol-based sinus and oral care products that support a healthy lifestyle.   Nathan was born in Kansas City and he spent his formative years in Idaho, in a small town where his father was the town doctor. Later, in a pursuit to provide needed support for the entire family of 14 kids, Nathan's parents made the decision to move to Michigan, and then Mexico City. When he was 16 years old, the family made another move, this time to Utah which is also where Nathan graduated from high school.   He attended college for a year, spent a year in active duty, and also went on a two-year mission with his church. Nathan moved back home in 1994 and started attending Utah Valley University. Later, he made a transition to Seattle where he attended school to become a commercial diver – he used skills from this education when he worked as a diver in oilfields in Louisiana between 1995 and 2000. Nathan then returned to Utah and founded Xlear in order to improve lives by spreading the message of Proactive Health.   Website: https://xlear.com/   Work With Me: Mineral Balancing HTMA Consultation: https://www.integrativethoughts.com/category/all-products  My Instagram: @integrativematt My Website: Integrativethoughts.com   Advertisements:   Viva Rays: Use Code ITP for a Discount https://vivarays.com/   Zeolite Labs Zeocharge: Use Code ITP for 10% off https://www.zeolitelabs.com/product-page/zeocharge?ref=ITP Magnesium Breakthrough: Use Code integrativethoughts10 for 10% OFF https://bioptimizers.com/shop/products/magnesium-breakthrough Just Thrive: Use Code ITP15 for 15% off https://justthrivehealth.com/discount/ITP15 Therasage: Use Code Coffman10 for 10% off https://www.therasage.com/discount/COFFMAN10?rfsn=6763480.4aed7f&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6763480.4aed7f   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction and Background 04:53 Understanding Xylitol and Its Origins 09:56 Fluoride vs. Xylitol: A Dental Debate 14:59 The Role of Xylitol in Oral Health 19:57 Nasal Hygiene and Mold Treatment 24:52 The Connection Between Oral Health and Systemic Illness 29:56 Xylitol's Impact on Maternal Health 34:59 Conclusion and Future Directions 37:06 Alternative Treatments and Protocols 39:28 The Role of Nasal Hygiene 43:11 Challenges with Regulatory Agencies 46:30 Historical Perspectives on Hygiene 54:58 Practical Applications of Nasal Hygiene Products   Takeaways: Xylitol is a natural sugar that helps prevent tooth decay. Fluoride's effectiveness in preventing tooth decay has significantly decreased over the years. Xylitol can reduce the incidence of respiratory infections. Maintaining a healthy oral microbiome is crucial for overall health. Nasal hygiene is important for preventing mold-related illnesses. Xylitol can help reduce preterm births by improving gut health. The dental industry often overlooks the bacterial causes of tooth decay. Xylitol can remineralize teeth when the mouth is at a neutral pH. Public health initiatives should promote xylitol for children's dental health. Xylitol's effectiveness is supported by numerous studies. The CDC had knowledge on how to treat COVID-19 early on. Saline irrigation was a recommended treatment for respiratory infections. Alternative treatments like xylitol and nasal hygiene can be effective. Regulatory agencies often hinder the sharing of beneficial health data. Historical figures in medicine faced ridicule for advocating hygiene practices. Nasal hygiene is crucial for preventing respiratory infections. Public health agencies need to improve their communication strategies. The effectiveness of treatments can be overshadowed by regulatory concerns. Education on hygiene practices is essential for public health. Innovative health solutions often face resistance from established institutions.   Summary: In this conversation, Matthew Coffman and Nate discuss the health benefits of xylitol, particularly in oral hygiene and nasal care. Nate shares his background in the health space, influenced by his father's research on xylitol's effectiveness against bacteria and viruses. They delve into the debate between fluoride and xylitol, highlighting the limitations of fluoride in addressing the root causes of tooth decay. The discussion also covers the importance of nasal hygiene, especially in relation to mold exposure, and the systemic health implications of oral health. They conclude with insights on xylitol's potential benefits for maternal health and the need for better public health initiatives. In this conversation, Matthew Coffman and Nate discuss the CDC's response to COVID-19, highlighting alternative treatments and the importance of nasal hygiene. They delve into the challenges posed by regulatory agencies like the FTC, and reflect on historical perspectives regarding hygiene practices in medicine. The discussion emphasizes practical applications of nasal hygiene products and the need for better public health communication.

He is also the author of Taboo: 10 Facts [You Can't Talk About] and Hate Crime Hoax: How the Left Is Selling a Fake Race War. His writing appears in a wide array of publications like Commentary, National Review and Quillette.  Razib and Reilly tackle the reality that over the last few decades the American education system has reoriented itself to teach values by slanting  a neutral historical narrative not specific to a particular viewpoint in the direction of what is  arguably distortion and misinformation. Perhaps the most egregious case of this is the narrative about slavery, making the institution a uniquely American sin when the reality is that until the 19th century it was a widespread practice across almost all societies. In fact, as Reilly points out, it was the West, and in particular Britain, that ended the practice across much of the world. An aspect of counterfactually reorienting the historical narrative for didactic purposes is that many educators have reinvented peoples and places to serve their own idealism; Native Americans for example have become repurposed into premodern environmentalist activists, even though their arrival in the New World over 10,000 years ago was indisputably associated with megafaunal extinction. Reilly shows that this pattern of reinterpreting and shading the past applies even to events within the lifetimes of the living. The various retellings of the “Red Scare” periods of American history after World War I and World War II obfuscate the reality that the US in the 20th century did have a Communist movement that infiltrated the professions and even the diplomatic corps; Joe McCarthy's excesses seem to have ended up justifying amnesia about a global political movement that transformed much of the world and had very real aims to take over the USA. Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me highlights that current attempts to retell history are not actually even liberal, but simply radical, and reflect the capture of education schools by Leftist activists since the 1970s. Rather than equipping children for the modern economy and expanding their understanding of the world, the regnant generation of educational practitioners seems intent on creating a cadre of 21st century radicals whose vague view of the past is rooted in ideology rather than any observable reality.
