The world of prehospital medicine is constantly evolving, driven by new research, technological advancements, and a shared commitment to improving patient care and provider well-being. As EMS professionals, staying informed about these developments goes beyond a professional obligation; it is an opportunity to improve our practice, champion our profession, and ultimately make a greater impact on saving lives. In this article, we will explore some of the latest research findings that are reshaping our field, from workplace culture to cutting-edge technology.   The Culture of Care: Supporting EMS Providers Our work is demanding, both physically and emotionally, and the culture within our agencies plays a critical role in our well-being. A recent systematic review in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health revealed that many EMS providers avoid using organizational mental health services due to stigma and a perception that these programs lack genuine care. The study emphasizes the need for person-centered support and a cultural shift that normalizes seeking help as a sign of strength (Johnston et al., 2025). This cultural component also impacts retention. Another study in the same journal found that agencies with collaborative, team-oriented "clan" cultures had significantly lower turnover rates compared to those with rigid or chaotic structures. For leaders in EMS, fostering a supportive environment is not just about morale. It is a strategic imperative for retaining skilled clinicians (Kamholz et al., 2025).   Professional Recognition: Breaking Barriers Across the globe, paramedics are striving for recognition as integrated healthcare professionals. A qualitative study in BMC Health Services Research identified common barriers, including outdated legislation, inconsistent regulation, and insufficient funding. While the pandemic temporarily highlighted our capabilities, the momentum has waned. The study calls for targeted policy reforms and investments in education and leadership to solidify our role in the broader healthcare system (Feerick et al., 2025). Physical Demands and Injury Prevention The physical toll of our work is undeniable. A scoping review in Applied Ergonomics confirmed that musculoskeletal injuries, particularly to the back, are rampant in EMS. Tasks like handling stretchers and patient extractions are among the most strenuous. The review also highlighted fitness disparities, with male paramedics generally showing more strength but less flexibility than their female counterparts. These findings underscore the need for targeted injury prevention programs and realistic physical standards to keep us safe throughout our careers (Marsh et al., 2025).   Advancements in Cardiac Arrest Care When it comes to cardiac arrest, every second counts. A study in Resuscitation reinforced the value of bystander CPR, showing that dispatcher-assisted CPR significantly improves outcomes for untrained bystanders. For those with prior CPR training, acting independently yielded even better results. This highlights the importance of public CPR education alongside dispatcher support (Tagami et al., 2025). On the scene, our interventions matter immensely. Research in The Journal of Emergency Medicine found that for traumatic cardiac arrest patients, aggressive interventions like prehospital thoracostomy can be lifesaving (McWilliam et al., 2025). Meanwhile, a study in Critical Care Medicine revealed that extracorporeal CPR (ECPR) significantly improves outcomes for patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation, emphasizing the need for early transport to specialized centers.   The Role of Technology in EMS Technology is poised to revolutionize EMS, from dispatch to diagnosis. A study in The American Journal of Emergency Medicine demonstrated that large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT could prioritize ambulance requests with remarkable accuracy, aligning with expert paramedic decisions over 76 percent of the time. This proof of concept suggests that AI could one day enhance resource allocation in dispatch centers (Shekhar et al., 2025). On the diagnostic front, machine learning is opening new possibilities. For example, a study in Bioengineering showed that analyzing photoplethysmography waveforms could estimate blood loss in trauma patients, offering a non-invasive way to guide resuscitation (Gonzalez et al., 2025). Similarly, research in Medical Engineering & Physics explored using multidimensional data to differentiate ischemic from hemorrhagic strokes in the field, potentially enabling more targeted prehospital care (Alshehri et al., 2025).   Addressing Disparities in Care Equity in EMS is a cornerstone of our profession, yet recent studies highlight troubling disparities. Research in JAMA Network Open found that ambulance offload times were significantly longer in communities with higher proportions of Black residents (Zhou et al., 2025). Another study in JAMA Surgery revealed that Black and Asian trauma patients were less likely to receive helicopter transport compared to White patients. These findings are a call to action for all of us to examine our systems and biases to ensure equitable care for every patient (Mpody et al., 2025).   Looking Ahead The research discussed here represents just a fraction of the advancements shaping EMS today. From improving workplace culture and injury prevention to leveraging AI and addressing systemic inequities, these findings have real-world implications for our protocols, training, and advocacy efforts. As EMS professionals, we have a responsibility to stay informed and apply these insights to our practice.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial investigated the effect of a 7-day creatine monohydrate (CrM) loading phase (20 g/day) on physically active men. The study found that CrM improved subjective sleep quality (SSQ) compared to the placebo (PL). CrM was also associated with an earlier in-bed time. Additionally, after the loading phase, CrM enhanced cognitive performance on the Digit Cancellation Test (DCT) and reduced perceived muscle soreness. CrM also increased physical output during the 5 m shuttle run test (5mSRT), specifically boosting Total Distance (TD) and Best Distance (BD). However, CrM did not significantly affect objective sleep parameters (such as total sleep time, sleep efficiency, or sleep latency). CrM also did not significantly alter the fatigue index (FI) or rating of perceived exertion (RPE) during the exercise test. The researchers concluded that a short-term CrM loading protocol offers additional benefits beyond its traditional muscle-enhancing role⚠️ Disclaimers (Source-Compliant)• This information is for educational purposes only and should not be interpreted as medical advice.• The study discussed was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial conducted on a specific population (physically active men).• Further research may be needed to confirm these findings in other populations.• Always consult with a qualified healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet, supplement regimen, or treatment plan, especially if you have a medical condition or are taking medications.#CreatineMonohydrate #SleepQuality #CognitiveFunction #creatine #ErgogenicAids Ben Maaoui K, Delleli S, Mahdi N, et al.

The Song of Mary Magnificat Luke 1:46-55 My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Savior; * for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generations will call me blessed: * the Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is his Name. He has mercy on those who fear him * in every generation. He has shown the strength of his arm, * he has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones, * and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, * and the rich he has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel, * for he has remembered his promise of mercy, The promise he made to our fathers, * to Abraham and his children for ever.   Isaiah 35:1-10 The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad, the desert shall rejoice and blossom; like the crocus it shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the Lord, the majesty of our God. Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who are of a fearful heart, "Be strong, do not fear! Here is your God. He will come with vengeance, with terrible recompense. He will come and save you." Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped; then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the speechless sing for joy. For waters shall break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert; the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; the haunt of jackals shall become a swamp, the grass shall become reeds and rushes. A highway shall be there, and it shall be called the Holy Way; the unclean shall not travel on it, but it shall be for God's people; no traveler, not even fools, shall go astray. No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast come up on it; they shall not be found there, but the redeemed shall walk there. And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

When we feel like we are all alone we need to remember that Jesus will walk into the darkness of our lives and redeem us! Pastor Dan Hooper Jr. teaches us that God knows us better than anyone on the planet and better than ourselves.

Munaf Manji and SleepyJ talk NFL Player Props for week 13. Munaf Manji and SleepyJ break down NFL Week 13 player props, starting with quarterbacks. Sleepy takes Josh Allen over 238.5 passing yards against a weak Steelers pass defense that gives up 258 per game, expecting Allen to bounce back after a rough Week 12 and potentially post a huge ceiling game. Munaf backs Patrick Mahomes over 266.5 passing yards versus Dallas, citing the Chiefs' reliance on the pass, recent struggles establishing the run, returning receivers, and a vulnerable Cowboys pass defense; Mahomes has gone over this number in four of his last five. For running backs, Sleepy plays Patriots RB Travion Henderson over 68.5 rushing yards since he has taken control of the backfield and faces a poor Giants rush defense; Munaf agrees, noting Henderson's strong recent snap shares, Stevenson's fumbling issues, and the Giants allowing explosive production to multiple backs. At wide receiver, Sleepy targets Xavier Worthy over 38.5 receiving yards with KC likely to throw heavily and possibly seeing extra targets if Rice is limited; Munaf goes with Texans WR Nico Collins over 65.5, pointing to CJ Stroud's return, Collins' heavy target volume, and his massive history vs the Colts, with three straight games over 117 yards. For tight ends, they both attack the Bengals' league-worst TE defense, with Sleepy taking Mark Andrews over 37.5 and also recommending Isaiah Likely, noting that last week Henry and Hooper posted huge yardage; Munaf matches on Andrews and notes the Bengals allow 87 TE yards per game. For anytime TDs, Sleepy takes Saints RB Davon Neal at +290 with Kamara likely out and Neal seeing meaningful usage; Munaf mentions liking Xavier Worthy and CeeDee Lamb, plus chalkier options Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey. Their shared best bet is Saquon Barkley over 76.5 rushing yards vs the Bears, expecting Philadelphia to “reset” by leaning on the run after an embarrassing loss to Dallas; the Bears allow 156 rushing yards per game over the last three weeks, and Barkley can clear this with volume or a single explosive run. They close by promoting a Pregame promo code, wishing listeners a happy Thanksgiving, and stressing taking time with family before resuming the late-season grind. Learn more about your ad choices.

It is no secret that I love nine hole golf courses. And this week I got the pleasure of sitting down with Josh Beer, President of Hooper Golf Course, one of the best nine hole golf courses in the world. We chat through the history of the club, what the President of a course like Hooper actually does, and what makes Hooper special.

What if the way you've been taught to succeed is the very thing burning you out? In a world that glorifies overwork, perfectionism and endless productivity, it can feel almost radical to rest, slow down, or say “no”. But that is where your business freedom lies.  In this episode of the Pause Purpose Play podcast, Clinical Psychologist Michaela Thomas speaks with Jo Hooper, founder of the Me First Method, about the mental health impact of patriarchal and capitalist work cultures — and how to build a business that supports your wellbeing instead of sabotaging it. Jo shares her experience of hitting breaking point in the corporate world, navigating multiple breakdowns, and reshaping her life and business around rest, boundaries and ease. Together, they explore how to step away from hustle culture, value your time and energy, and give yourself the permission slaps you need to reclaim your life. You'll hear:  How patriarchal and capitalist structures fuel burnout  What meaningful, self-honouring boundaries actually look like  Why ease, rest and slowness are essential for long-term success  Practical ways to make your business easier to run  How to stop proving your worth through productivity This is an honest and compassionate conversation about redefining success on your own terms — and choosing spaciousness over self-sacrifice.

Sometimes when our lives feel like a dark storm we can feel like just giving up, but God is our light and is there for us. Pastor Dan reminds us that God is not just the source of the promise but the only one who can fulfill that promise!

Top Stories for November 8th Publish Date: November 8th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, November 8th and Happy Birthday to Margaret Mitchell I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Lawrenceville's Hooper-Renwick Themed Library earns Redevelopment Project of the Year honors Rick Case Bikes for Kids Accepting Bicycle Donations Gwinnett Tech boards earn statewide honors for exemplary leadership and governance All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Kia Mall of Georgia STORY 1: Lawrenceville's Hooper-Renwick Themed Library earns Redevelopment Project of the Year honors The Hooper-Renwick Themed Library in Lawrenceville just snagged the title of Medium Redevelopment Project of the Year at the Metro Atlanta Redevelopment Summit—and honestly, it’s well-deserved. This isn’t just a library. It’s a reimagining of the historic Hooper-Renwick School, once the only public school for Black students in Gwinnett County. Now, it’s a space that blends the past and present—a library, a museum, a place for storytelling and connection. The project preserves the school’s legacy while creating a vibrant community hub. STORY 2: Rick Case Bikes for Kids Accepting Bicycle Donations Got an old bike collecting dust? Rick Case Bikes for Kids is back, and they’re asking the community to help spread some holiday magic. Through Dec. 20, Rick Case dealerships are accepting gently used bicycles to give to kids who might not otherwise have one. For 44 years, this program has delivered over 122,000 bikes to children through groups like Boys & Girls Clubs, Habitat for Humanity, and local schools. “A first bike is unforgettable,” says Rita Case, CEO of Rick Case Automotive Group. “For many of these kids, it’s their first taste of freedom.” Drop-offs are easy—locations in Duluth and Roswell are open daily. STORY 3: Gwinnett Tech boards earn statewide honors for exemplary leadership and governance Gwinnett Technical College is having a moment—two big milestones worth celebrating. First, the Gwinnett Tech Foundation Board of Trustees was named a 2025 Role Model Board, a pretty big deal in the world of technical education. Why? Because it’s only given to boards that go above and beyond in leadership, advocacy, and making a real difference. And then there’s this: for the 16th year in a row, every single member of the Gwinnett Tech Board of Directors earned certification. Sixteen years! That’s dedication. “These achievements show just how committed our boards are to student success and workforce development,” said Dr. Glen Cannon, Gwinnett Tech’s president. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: Stolen trailer leads Gwinnett police to cache of guns and drugs in Doraville home What started as a stolen trailer report in Norcross turned into something much bigger—a stash of guns and drugs uncovered in Doraville, according to Gwinnett County police. It began on Oct. 30, when officers used Flock license plate readers to track the stolen trailer to a vehicle tied to Matthew Davis.

Some leaders coach the game. Others change it.Coach Tamisha Augustin is doing both.From her early days on co-ed YMCA courts to becoming the fearless head coach of Hampton University Women's Basketball, her story is a blueprint for grit, grace, and generational impact. With over two decades of experience — spanning high school, the G-League, and the NCAA — Coach Augustin has mastered the art of building culture, elevating players, and proving that excellence has no limits.Tamisha's journey began when she picked up a basketball at age five. Her family envisioned cheerleading; she envisioned greatness. By middle school she was running co-ed teams and making believers out of skeptics.That love carried her to Alabama A&M, where she became a four-year starter, captain, and leader on and off the floor. “It made me who I am,” she says — the woman who could fight through anything, on any court.Coach Augustin didn't plan to coach. With a biology degree and a master's in microbiology, she was on the road to dentistry — until a legend, Boo Williams, invited her to coach an AAU team of 14-year-olds.That was the moment.“This is God's order,” she says.From there, she climbed every rung of the basketball ladder — high-school gyms, college sidelines, and even the G-League. Her philosophy? If the door opens, walk through it — and make it better than you found it.Her time at the University of Arizona marked a defining chapter. As an assistant during the Wildcats' historic 2021 National Championship run, she witnessed firsthand how belief and chemistry create miracles.From Aari McDonald's iconic performances to that unforgettable win over UConn, Augustin soaked up lessons that still guide her today: trust the process, build team energy, and lead with heart.In 2022, she accepted the head-coaching role at her home-state HBCU, Hampton University — calling it a “God-ordained assignment.”This wasn't just a career move. It was a homecoming.“Hampton wins,” she declares. “We're here to continue that tradition.”Under her leadership, the Pirates shocked the basketball world with a comeback win over a Power Four program in her first season — rallying from 16 down in the third quarter. Her teams don't fold. They fight.Coach Augustin's vision extends beyond basketball. She's built partnerships like the Mielle Organics x Hampton WBB initiative, connecting players with internships, brand opportunities, and WNBA mentors.“We're not selling dreams,” she says. “We're making them happen.”At Hampton, academics, athletics, and character development all share the same spotlight — because she's not just building players, she's building women who lead.Hampton University isn't just a school — it's a movement.For athletes who want the full HBCU experience and the challenge of top-tier basketball, Coach Augustin's pitch is simple:“Whether you want to be a pro, a lawyer, or a doctor — we're preparing you for life after basketball.”Discipline. Effort. Consistency. Faith. That's the Hampton way.As the Pirates charge into a new era, Coach Tamisha Augustin stands at the center — leading with purpose, passion, and that unmistakable Hampton pride.This isn't just a program; it's a legacy in motion.So drop a

APOLOGIES FOR THE LATE DROP ON THIS ONE. STILL WORTH A LISTEN!!Welcome dear listener to the 19th episode of the 7th season of First State Kopites. I'm Paul and today I am joined by Daz. In a week where there have been so many hot takes we could probably have heated a major city through a nuclear winter. We've taken a couple of days to reflect with our review of Brentford 3, Liverpool 2.Part One  - Conceded from a throw in, a long ball and a penalty.Liverpool are terrible, the full backs are shit, Ibou is useless (2nd goal), Wirtz is too lightweight, Mac Allister is ‘broken' and the manager is clueless. Oh and ‘the League is gone'Comparisons with 2020-21 of course.OR they are actually 3rd in the League in xG (ahead of Arsenal) and the ball hasn't bounced their way - the xGA for the goals conceded outstrips the actual goals. Or is there no space for a cooler take?Serious point about the move to ‘shitball' - especially against us. More long balls in general in the league, but especially against us. Have we signed players to play the ‘old' way?The 9+ minutes it took to take their 10 throw ins. Other areas for potential concerns:Confidence (pass accuracy dropped from 88% in the 1st half to 77% in the 2nd), too much - woe is me?Duels and winning second balls - headed duels were about 50-50, we had an edge on overall duels,Integrating Wirtz and the other new players. Pre-season and a change of style.Interesting test case - with Hooper we had 68% possession and were given only one foul, they were given 3. 2nd half less possession, but the foul count was 6 to 7. Footnote - Jordan Henderson has learned how to pass - just another sign of the stupid dialogues that exist around LiverpoolPart Two - quick preview of Saturday:Aston Villa who have come back from their early season stumbles. Injuries, confidence, luck? I am concerned about the crowd, nervousness and the backdrop of a million hot takes.In passing - Crystal PalaceWe'll be back with a review of the Villa game.

This video is a conversation with Charlie Hooper-Williams, a composer, pianist, and software developer, who shares insights on his creative process, live performances, the classical music world, and the impact of AI on art.Key Discussion Points* Background and Work* Charlie Hooper-Williams is a composer, pianist, and software developer who was part of the team that created the music identification app, Shazam [00:02].* He defines his musical style as part of the "post-classical," "indie classical," or "neo-classical" movement, focusing on creating music that connects emotionally with the audience [02:48].* He studied piano performance as an undergraduate at Northwestern [03:11].* Live Performances and Technology* He currently performs solo on a portable acoustic piano and utilizes a unique live visual system that he coded himself [00:18].* The system listens to what he plays and creates real-time visuals ( [19:54] ) projected onto a screen and six light towers [19:06].* His shows vary, ranging from small, intimate village halls to large festivals like Glastonbury [25:50]. He also enjoys performing in movie theaters, utilizing the massive screen and quality sound [33:49].* The Creative Process* He discusses the idea that no art is wholly new; a composer is a "sum of everything you've ever heard and done and seen" [10:09]. The artist's job is to digest those influences so that the final product is truly their own [10:24].* He finds the process of writing music includes phases of feeling his work is "terrible" ( [06:07] ), a common experience for creatives, which is why he values creative peers and mentors [07:27].* The World of Classical Music* He believes that post-World War II academic music created a split by prioritizing music that was difficult and experimental over music that was entertaining and connected with a general audience [03:06:01].* He is excited by contemporary composers like Caroline Shaw, who are experimental but still "fun and exciting" [38:43].* AI in Music* He finds AI to be a helpful tool for things like summarizing and grant applications ( [43:25] ), but he maintains a strong critical judgment when using it [42:56].* He is not yet impressed by AI-generated music ( [45:40] ) and speculates that the future will see a split between easily-generated AI background music and human-made art that people actively listen to for the sake of human-to-human connection [46:32].RecommendationsCharlie Hooper-Williams recommends the following post-classical artists:* Nils Frahm [51:22]* Poppy Ackroyd* Olafur Arnalds* Max RichterYou can find his music and updates by searching his name or visiting his website, charliehooperwilliams.com [51:55].

Tobe Hooper's Salem's Lot From time to time movies slip through the cracks. Although Tobe Hooper's Salem's Lot is considered a television classic, it is a film that your movie podcaset host has somehow missed these 46 years. Adapted from Stephen King's 1975 best-seller, this 1979 adaptation features David Soul from TVs Starsky & Hutch, as well as future Mrs. Holly McClane, Bonnie Bedelia. What could have easily been a throw-away television mini-series, is instead a ground-breaking take on Vampires, Lust, and Small-Town Paranoia. Guided through the directorial lens of Mr. Hooper, shortly after the landmark Horror spectacle, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) and before Poltergeist (1982), Hooper elevates the material to a truly frightening and exciting experience. If you haven't seen this classic you owe it to yourself to make the time. Take a listen and let us know what you think. Questions, Comments, Complaints, and Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many Thanks.  For those of you who would like to donate to this undying labor of love, you can do so with a contribution at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/watchrickramos - Anything and Everything is appreciated, You Cheap Bastards.

In this episode of Vineyard Underground, Fritz welcomes Dustin Hooper, Vice President of Sales at Sunridge Nurseries, to take listeners behind the scenes of how grapevines are made. While growers see the final product when vines arrive at their vineyard, there's a fascinating process that begins long before planting — starting with certified mother vines and continuing through propagation, grafting, greenhouse production, and certification. Dustin shares his personal journey into the nursery business and offers an insider's perspective on the complexities of producing clean, reliable vines for commercial vineyards. Together, Fritz and Dustin explore the differences between own-rooted versus grafted vines, the pros and cons of dormant bare-root versus greenhouse formats, and innovations such as tall and medium-trained vines. They also cover critical topics like soil and water testing, rootstock selection, and how clones are chosen to fine-tune vineyard performance and wine style. A key part of the discussion is the rigorous certification process overseen by UC Davis Foundation Plant Services and state agencies to ensure vines are tested and free from major viruses before they ever reach a vineyard. Dustin emphasizes that selecting the right vine format, rootstock, and clone isn't just about availability — it's about long-term success, sustainability, and profitability. Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of the nursery side of viticulture and gain practical insights into how to make informed decisions when ordering vines for their vineyard. In this episode, you will hear: The difference between own-rooted and grafted vines, and when each is appropriate Pros and cons of dormant bare-root vs. greenhouse-grown vines How tall and medium-trained vines can help in specific planting scenarios Why rootstock and clone selection are critical to vineyard success The rigorous certification and testing process that protects growers from viruses Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

Send us a textJust when you thought October was safe again... it's another franchise!!This year, Pete is hunting for the sequels to one of the greatest movies of all time, Jaws! Somehow, this cinema classic got not only one, but three sequels. And one of them is even a requel, starting well before Halloween made that its defining feature.Jaws 2, from 1978, is a mix of the classic Jaws formula and the then-budding slasher genre. This one features a ton of teenagers stranded in a remote location getting picked off one by one. And this time, the vengeful shark even has a horribly scarred face like all the slasher greats.The Brody family returns from the first film, as does the slimy mayor of Amity. Somehow, the local government STILL does not take Chief Brody seriously when he cries shark. However, no Quint and no Hooper means this movie only has a third of the charm as its predecessor.Join us as we discuss new shark lore, how explosive a water ski can be, the comfortability of love-making in a boat, and whether fish can truly seek revenge.Grab your life preserver, load your harpoon gun, and most importantly, don't get too scared!

Kristina Hooper, chief market strategist at Man Group, says that investors need to "keep on dancing" while the music is playing, but she says the tunes are about to change or stop, with valuations setting the market up for a decline of up to 20 percent that could might take a while to get here but which could show up this year if the market has a bad reaction to the Federal Reserve cooling on rate cuts. She notes that the rate-cut cycle could cut short the current small-cap rally, contributing to a down or sideways period. Hooper isn't backing away from domestic markets, but says investors should rebalance portfolios and lean into the better valuations available in foreign markets. She's not the only one expecting the market to take a breather or more here, as Mike Passante, director of financial planning at Focused Wealth Management says that technical indicators show that the stock market may be hitting resistance levels now, which could lead to a small pullback as the market resets and refreshes itself. Passante says the market has room to rebound to levels that are slightly higher than today, but he notes any more significant gains this year would require a big increase in investors' animal spirits near year-end. In the Book Interview, Victoria Bateman discusses “Economica: A Global History of Women, Wealth, and Power,” and introduces us to some women whose roles helped to make the world rich but whose exploits have mostly been ignored or forgotten by history.

In October 1987, a visiting nurse walked into a Tyler, Texas duplex and discovered a scene of unimaginable violence. Fifty-seven-year-old Mary Hooper, confined to a wheelchair after a long battle with illness, had been bludgeoned to death. Just steps away, her longtime partner, sixty-two-year-old Emmett Lynch, was found beaten in the bathroom. Nothing in the home appeared disturbed. Valuables remained untouched. The only thing missing was Emmett's car—a gray 1977 Ford LTD he cherished and would never have willingly sold.When the car turned up more than 1,000 miles away in Prescott, Arizona, so did two suspects: Terry and Kathryn McMahan, former neighbors of the victims. What followed was one of the most expensive capital murder trials in Smith County history—filled with contradictions, unanswered questions, and ultimately, an acquittal.Decades later, the murders of Mary Hooper and Emmett Lynch remain unsolved. This episode explores the crime scene, the investigation that stretched across state lines, and the courtroom drama that left a grieving community with no justice.If you have any information about the murders of Mary Hooper and Emmett Lynch, please contact the Tyler Police Department at 903-531-1000 or Tyler / Smith County Crime-Stoppers at 903-597-2833.

There is a change happening right now and we need God Encounters more than ever. Pastor Hooper Sr. delivers an incredible message that you don't want to miss.

Ever wondered why so many home inspectors struggle when they try to break into commercial inspections? James Hooper, owner of Bridgetown Inspections and Oregon Commercial Inspections, reveals the stark reality: it's not just a bigger version of what you're already doing—it's an entirely different business requiring a complete professional transformation.Hooper's journey began like many others, juggling a full-time job at UPS while building his home inspection business. After receiving increasing inquiries for commercial work, he recognized the need for a dedicated approach, eventually establishing Oregon Commercial Inspections as a separate entity with its own professional identity. Now running five commercial inspections in a single week, he shares the critical lessons that made this transition successful.The conversation dives deep into why the typical home inspector approach fails in commercial settings. From professional appearance (no more shorts and untucked shirts) to sophisticated client communication systems, commercial clients expect business-level service at every touchpoint. As Hooper puts it, "It's not even a marketing edge—it's a completely different ballpark." When potential clients mention finding him specifically because "everyone else is just a home inspector," it highlights how crucial proper positioning is in this market.What truly sets successful commercial inspectors apart is their understanding of business beyond buildings. Hooper recommends studying various industries to understand client needs better—whether it's knowing what a brewery requires for operations or helping a client navigate triple net lease terms. This broader business acumen transforms an inspector from a vendor into a valuable resource that clients return to repeatedly.Want to elevate your inspection business into the commercial realm? Start by creating a separate professional brand, developing sophisticated communication processes, and investing in education through organizations like CCPIA. The commercial inspection industry is experiencing its "golden age," but only those who approach it with the seriousness and professionalism it demands will thrive.Check out our home inspection app at www.inspectortoolbelt.comNeed a home inspection website?

On this episode, Aaron and Derek discuss 1995's haunted machine film "The Mangler" directed by Tobe Hooper and based off the 1972 Stephen King short story. They talk about how Hooper combined his humorous horror sensibilities with King's insane creative energy and adding more to what is an otherwise direct adaptation of the short story. They also get into Hooper's use of lighting and set dressing, the not so subtle exploration of capitalism and lack of oversight consuming everything, and how Hooper as a director always "goes for it." Derek is doing a little dance! Aaron has a little bit of that machine in him. We are on PodBean, Apple Podcasts, Podchaser, Goodpods, Amazon Music, Spotify, iHeartRadio and CastBox.

There is no replacing Matt Serra. But when the champ can't make the show, it's never a bad idea to get another champ to fill in — and that's exactly what today's Unfiltered episode delivers with Forrest Griffin talking UFC 319 w/ guest callers Geoff Neal and Chase Hooper. First up, 11th-ranked welterweight Geoff Neal reflects on his inspiring journey from a life-threatening ICU stay in 2020 to competing at the highest level in the UFC. He breaks down his upcoming matchup with Carlos Prates and weighs in on whether “MMA math” applies when comparing each of their recent losses to Ian Machado Garry. Then, Chase Hooper — just 25 years old and already entering his 12th UFC fight — talks about taking on Alexander Hernandez, a dangerous striker with only one submission loss in 24 pro bouts. Usually on dad duty 50+ weeks a year, Chase shares how his locked-in fight-week mentality has brought out his best performances since moving up to 155 pounds. Having seen many of UFC 319's fighters up close in his role at the UFC Performance Institute, Forrest offers sharp analysis for a comprehensive breakdown of the sneaky-good matchups that round out Saturday's stacked card.
