Led by James Naughtie, this special episode of Bookclub celebrates the late Alasdair Gray's 1981 masterpiece, Lanark, at the Pitlochry Winter Words Festival, with the actor Alan Cumming, who is the voice of the new audiobook recently released by Canongate. Described by the author as 'a life in four books', Lanark follows the interwoven lives of Lanark and Duncan Thaw through the disintegrating cities of Unthank and Glasgow. The book has garnered widespread praise and critical acclaim for sitting realism and surrealism side by side and for daring to be experimental. The Guardian described the novel as "one of the landmarks of twentieth century fiction" while the Times Literary Supplement said it was "profoundly perceptive about the ways in which our society is destroying itself".This episode was recorded in front of a live audience at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre in February.Producer: Dominic Howell Editor: Gillian Wheelan This is a BBC Audio Scotland production.

A new center for the study of chronic infectious diseases aims to develop treatments for illnesses like Valley fever, tuberculosis, HIV, and Long COVID that disproportionately affect South Texas communities. Led by Dr. Barbara Taylor, the center seeks to attract top researchers and serve as a hub for clinical trials and community-focused care.

Robert Horry and the crew kick off Shoot Around episode 124 with jokes and impressions before jumping into a pop quiz: the only NBA player to win a scoring title, rebounding title, blocks title, Rookie of the Year, MVP, Defensive Player of the Year, an NBA championship, and an Olympic gold medal—revealed to be David Robinson. The conversation shifts to Spurs talk, with Horry pushing back on claims that he hates San Antonio, explaining his take on why he doesn’t have Wemby as his MVP and naming his MVP as “Brown,” while still praising the Spurs, Pop, and the 2005 championship team.   They discuss the Chicago Bears potentially moving about 25 miles south to Hammond, Indiana, while likely keeping the “Chicago Bears” name, comparing it to New York teams playing in New Jersey and noting Indiana’s willingness to fund a new stadium. The group also talks about which franchises should never move, highlighting the St. Louis Cardinals and San Diego Padres, and briefly noting the Braves’ move within the Atlanta area. In NBA rules talk, they react to Paul Pierce’s idea of an LED three-point line that turns on and off during games, calling it too gimmicky and better suited to celebrity or All-Star-style events.   The episode also covers UFL rule changes, including a four-point field goal for kicks over 60 yards and banning punts once a team crosses midfield, with the hosts debating whether the NFL might adopt similar ideas and joking about how it would affect Super Bowl squares. Off the court, they break down MLB Players Association executive director Tony Clark resigning after an internal investigation revealed an improper relationship with his sister-in-law, and they react to Mad Dog Russo’s defense while debating how personal life should intersect with employment consequences. They wrap with viral oddities and childhood stories: a 92-year-old woman with Alzheimer’s climbing a seven-foot nursing home gate in 24 seconds, a 12-year-old in North Carolina driving himself to school with a fictitious plate after missing the bus, and the hosts sharing the dumbest things they did as kids—stealing church money for cookies, kicking a hole through a bedroom door, and a messy food fight that led to “double dip” punishments.   00:00 Friday Cold Open 01:25 Wild Twitter Grab Bag 01:40 NBA Trivia Stumper 03:22 Spurs Fans Clapback 05:38 Bears Moving to Indiana 07:17 Teams That Shouldn’t Move 08:43 LED Three Point Line 10:01 UFL Rule Experiments 12:14 Tony Clark Scandal 15:21 92 Year Old Gate Escape 17:11 Kid Drives To School 19:11 Cookie Money Confession 20:42 Foot Through The Door 22:29 Epic Food Fight Fallout 23:46 Double Dip Whoopings

The rapid development and global deployment of mRNA vaccines for COVID-19 represented a landmark achievement in public health. However, the novel mechanism of these “genetic vaccines”—technically pro-drug gene therapies encased in lipid nanoparticles—has prompted ongoing scientific inquiry into their potential long-term effects. A comprehensive case report and review, titled “Exploring the potential link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations and cancer: A case report with a review of haematopoietic malignancies with insights into pathogenic mechanisms” published in Oncotarget by an international team of researchers investigates a consequential scientific question: whether there could be a link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and the development of haematopoietic cancers. Led by first author Patrizia Gentilini, along with corresponding author Panagis Polykretis of the “Allineare Sanità e Salute” Foundation and Independent Medical Scientific Commission (CMSi), Milano, the paper presents a detailed case study alongside a systematic review of existing literature. It does not claim to have proven a causal link, but instead argues that the convergence of clinical observations and proposed biological mechanisms warrants deeper, more urgent investigation.

BUFFALO, NY – February 25, 2026 – A new #editorial perspective was #published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on February 20, 2026, titled “CAR-T therapy: Trailblazing CAR(ing) in cancer treatment.” Led by Uzma Saqib — with corresponding author Krishnan Hajela from the School of Life Sciences, Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya — the perspective reviews recent clinical and translational advances in chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy and highlights both its promise and its remaining barriers. The piece synthesizes recent clinical advances in hematologic malignancies and emerging applications in solid tumors, while focusing attention on safety (for example, cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity), resistance, antigen specificity, and access disparities. The authors summarize the CAR-T workflow (leukapheresis → genetic modification and expansion → infusion) and note major recent clinical gains — including improved outcomes in leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma — that support wider adoption of cellular immunotherapy approaches. They emphasize that despite these advances, important clinical challenges remain, particularly for solid tumors, where antigen selection, tumor microenvironment, and T-cell trafficking limit efficacy. At the same time, the perspective highlights technological and clinical strategies under development to overcome these obstacles, including next-generation CAR designs and improved supportive-care protocols. “Despite its promise, CAR T-cell therapy faces several critical challenges.” The authors call out clear next steps for the field: (1) continued refinement of CAR constructs (dual-targeting, switchable/on-off systems, armored CARs) to improve specificity and reduce on-target/off-tumor toxicity; (2) improved management protocols and prophylactic measures to mitigate CRS and neurotoxicity; (3) expanded investigation of allogeneic or alternative CAR-T platforms to address manufacturing, cost, and access barriers; and (4) focused translational studies to improve T-cell trafficking and efficacy in solid tumors. They also highlight equity issues — socioeconomic and racial disparities that limit access to CAR-T — and urge that broad deployment plans include strategies to expand availability and affordability.

Your skin is not just a cosmetic surface. It's a living organ that responds to signals, and the right light signal can flip your biology into repair mode. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Get a discount from LYMA by using code ‘DAVE10' at: https://lyma.life/ In this episode, Host Dave Asprey goes to London to meet Lucy Goff, founder of LYMA, at the LYMA headquarters. Lucy and her scientific team engineered a rare kind of at-home cold laser that delivers precise 808nm light with deep penetration, without burning, cutting, or “damaging to rebuild.” Their work is backed by published research in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, and they've tested gene expression in human dermis, including a reported sixfold increase in SIRT1, a major longevity pathway. This is why you can trust this conversation. It's not vibes, it's engineering, biology, and data. Most “red light” products are basically glorified LEDs. They can be fine for the surface, but they do not deliver the kind of coherent, polarized, monochromatic light that your cells actually respond to in deep tissue. That matters because your mitochondria run the whole show. When mitochondria get a clean signal and more usable energy, your body suddenly has budget for repair, collagen, circulation, and recovery. That is the real mechanism behind anti-aging that does not rely on controlled injury. We get into how this kind of light hacking can change skin quality, muscle support under the skin, and even scars and fascia. We talk cartilage, knees, jowls, pigmentation, and the weird reality that you might not feel anything while it's working. Dave also shares his early biohacking experiments using light for brain optimization, including the time he overdid it and temporarily scrambled his speech. That story will make you respect the power of light as a biological tool. We also talk human performance and travel. Dave breaks down how he uses light management for sleep optimization and jet lag, and why controlling light is as important as controlling food, fasting, ketosis, and metabolism. There's also a practical angle here that most people miss: with AI, you can now take dense PubMed research and translate it into usable decisions without needing a PhD, which changes how fast you can learn, test, and personalize. If you care about longevity, neuroplasticity, recovery, and looking younger without trashing your tissue, this episode gives you a smarter way to think about lasers, supplements, nootropics, and the whole functional medicine stack. This is Smarter Not Harder biohacking, with a laser. You'll Learn: • Why LED “red light therapy” is not the same as laser-based mitochondrial activation • How coherent light influences mitochondria, collagen quality, and anti-aging repair • What gene expression changes like SIRT1 suggest about longevity signaling • How light may support brain optimization, circulation, and neuroplasticity • Why scars and fascia can disrupt performance, and how light can support remodeling • How Dave uses light and lifestyle hacking for sleep optimization, travel, and metabolism • How AI makes research-driven biohacking more accessible and more personal Thank you to our sponsors! • • • • Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

Welcome to Day 2804 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2804 – The Devil Never Made Him Do It – Luke 4:1-13 Putnam Church Message – 01/18/2026 Luke's Account of the Good News - “The Devil Never Made Him Do It.”    Last week investigated a prophet who was unmatched in all history, the forerunner of Jesus Christ, in a message titled “The Greatest Mortal Who Ever Died.” Today, we begin our study through the ministry of Jesus Christ in a message titled: “The Devil Never Made Him Do It.” Our Core verses for this week are Luke 4:1-13, found on page 1595 of your Pew Bibles. Follow along as I read. OPENING PRAYER Holy Father, we gather today in the name of Jesus, our victorious Savior. As we open Your Word, teach us to recognize temptation, to discern the lies of the enemy, and to cling to the truth that sets us free. Strengthen our hearts by Your Spirit, steady our minds by Your Scriptures, and shape our lives to reflect the obedience of Christ in the wilderness. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, now and forever. Amen. Today, we come to a moment in Luke's Gospel that occurs quietly, without crowds, without choirs of angels, without disciples watching in awe. There are no miracles, no sermons, no parables, and no healings. Instead, there is silence, sand, hunger, and a solitary battle in the wilderness. It is here that Jesus faces the enemy of our souls in a way no other human ever has — and He triumphs. And He does so not by leaning on His divine authority, but by walking in obedience as a human filled with and yielded to the Holy Spirit. Our preaching text this morning comes from Luke 4:1–13 (NLT). Luke writes: “Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River. He was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. Jesus ate nothing all that time and became very hungry.” (Luke 4:1–2) Luke wants us to see something right away: Jesus did not accidentally wander into temptation. He did not stumble into a spiritual ambush. He was led there. Led by whom? Led by the Spirit. And with that, Luke invites us into one of Scripture's most profound mysteries: God can lead His children into places of testing for the purpose of strengthening, purifying, and proving them. This is not new. Israel experienced the same. Moses reminded the people in Deuteronomy 8:2 (NLT): “Remember how the Lord your God led you through the wilderness for these forty years, humbling you and testing you…” Jesus is reliving the story of Israel — but where Israel failed, Jesus prevails.     Context: Between Baptism and Ministry Before we move further, we must notice the timing: Just before the wilderness comes the baptism. Just before the temptation comes the affirmation. Just before the war comes, the voice from heaven. In Luke 3, the heavens opened, the Spirit descended like a dove, and the Father declared: “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.” (3:22) Immediately after that, Jesus is taken to the desert. This pattern is familiar to anyone who has walked with God: Mountaintops are...

What if one of the biggest drivers of your productivity wasn't your calendar, your habits, or your willpower but the light around you?  In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Dr. Martin Moore-Ede, a world-leading expert in circadian biology and founder of the Circadian Light Research Center. Dr. Moore-Ede, known as "The Light Doctor," reveals a hidden productivity lever most of us overlook entirely: the light around us. We live in a world of artificial light, but not all light is created equal. Dr. Moore-Ede explains how modern LED and fluorescent lighting disrupt our internal biological clocks, leading to poor sleep, foggy thinking, weakened immune systems, and even long-term health risks. What begins as a conversation about light evolves into a fundamental discussion on human biology, explaining how the blue spectrum in everyday bulbs tells our brain it is daytime, halting vital repair processes, suppressing cancer-fighting melatonin, and throwing our entire system out of sync. Gerald and Dr. Moore-Ede explore practical, science-backed strategies to harness light for peak performance. Learn the four key pillars of a "healthy light diet," why morning outdoor time is non-negotiable, and how to choose evening lighting that will not sabotage your sleep. Discover how companies worldwide are using these principles to boost workforce productivity by over 30 percent, reduce errors, and improve safety. This episode shows how to work with your biology rather than against it. If you want to sharpen your focus, enhance your energy, sleep deeply, and unlock a new level of sustainable productivity, it starts with the light you see.   What We Discuss [00:00] Podcast introduction [01:17] Kiva non-profit spotlight [02:01] Guest introduction: Dr. Martin Moore-Ede [03:14] Personal interests: music preferences [04:37] Immediate productivity gains from healthy lighting [05:51] Dr. Moore-Ede's background and circadian research [07:05] Discovery of the brain's circadian clock [08:06] Modern lighting and health disruption [09:39] How circadian rhythms work [11:31] Health risks of nighttime light exposure [12:49] Choosing healthy lighting at home [14:00] How eyes detect light: rods, cones, and non-visual receptors [15:41] Daytime light exposure and longevity [17:08] Light's impact on productivity and sleep [18:36] Aging, well-being, and productivity [20:16] Types of light and their effects [22:58] Four key principles for healthy circadian practice [24:21] Practical home lighting adjustments [25:01] Lighting for focus and brainstorming [26:00] Lighting, stress, and 24/7 work culture [28:18] Workplace design innovations [31:03] Where to learn more: Dr. Moore-Ede's resources [32:30] Podcast wrap-up and closing remarks   Notable Quotes [04:49] These days people are inside, they're on their devices, and we are under lights that are actually rather unhealthy." – Dr. Martin Moore-Ede [05:07] "Light is not just for vision.

Im glad WLS has turned into minimum of 30 min of advertising. This isnt Unleashed. Get your shit right. PS. Jeremy is a cunt. Review: JackB 5 Squares! We Like Shooting reminds me of the best carp recipe ever created. Aaron is the giant Asian carp that jumped into your boat as you were cruising down the river. He just kinda crashes the party and breaks shit, but it's funny so you roll with it. Jerambe is the filet knife you use to carefully make 2 slits along either side of the carp's spine. No need to gut or scale the carp because it's better if it's alive Nick is the manure you roll into 1″ diameter balls and carefully place into the slits you carved. He's kind of unorthodox, but when he starts talking you wanna see where it goes. Shawn is the oven you set to 171 degrees and place the food in for 3.5 – 4 hours. He provides the structure and energy for all the magic to happen. And finally, Savage1r is the trash can that you throw the carp in after scooping out the filling. Because the balls shit will be the best tasting part of any carp recipe. Before we let you go – JOIN GUN OWNERS OF AMERICA We'd love if you supported the show, join Agency 171 at agency171.com.

Should Christians still tithe? And why do people lose their minds when a pastor wears a nice watch?In this episode, PF, Kenneth, and Esther tackle one of the most divisive topics in church culture — money, tithing, and what pastors actually deserve to earn.PF gets vulnerable about his own lifestyle, reveals he works 80 hours a week on 5 hours of sleep, and explains why he'll never apologize for owning a Rolex. The conversation digs into the theology behind tithing — Old Covenant law versus New Covenant freewill giving — and why so many Christians are confused about what the Bible actually teaches on the subject.PF breaks down why tithing was originally about food (not money), why Malachi 3:10 is the most misquoted verse in church, and what giving should actually look like for believers today.But this isn't just theology. The crew gets real about church operations — from a $50,000 emergency HVAC replacement to why pastors are among the most underpaid professionals in America. PF shares why pastoral suicide rates are alarming, and makes the case that the laborer is worthy of his wages.In this episode:• Why tithing as we know it isn't actually a New Testament command• PF's honest take on pastor compensation and lifestyle scrutiny• The $50K HVAC story: what it really costs to run a church• "Serving God is not a sentence of poverty" — why PF won't apologize• Old Covenant vs. New Covenant: what the Bible actually says about giving• Why pastors are underpaid, underloved, and burning outTIMESTAMPS00:00 - Cold Open: The Pastor's Tattoo Controversy02:00 - Introduction: Kenneth, Esther & PF04:00 - Should Christians Judge Their Pastors?07:00 - "Teachers Will Be Judged More Strictly" — James 3:110:00 - The Tithing Question: Old Covenant vs. New Covenant14:00 - Malachi 3:10: The Most Misquoted Verse in Church?18:00 - Tithing Was About Food, Not Money22:00 - New Testament Giving: Freewill, Not Mandatory26:00 - Why Do People Get Mad at What Pastors Own?30:00 - PF's Rolex: "I Work 80 Hours a Week on 5 Hours of Sleep"34:00 - "Serving God Is Not a Sentence of Poverty"37:00 - The $50,000 HVAC Story: What Running a Church Actually Costs40:00 - Why Pastors Commit Suicide: Underpaid and Underloved44:00 - The Laborer Is Worthy of His Wages47:00 - Prosperity Gospel vs. Honest Compensation50:00 - How Should Christians Give Today?53:00 - Closing Thoughts: Give Cheerfully, Not Under Compulsion

Send a textThis week, Heather and Vanessa interview Scott Zimmerman, an optical engineer and lighting innovator with over 35 years of experience in lighting and display technologies. Scott founded and operates NIRA Lighting, a company that develops energy-efficient LED lighting enhanced with near-infrared (NIR) light, mimicking the full spectrum of natural sunlight. This innovation addresses a key limitation of conventional LEDs, which lack the beneficial near-infrared wavelengths present in sunlight and incandescent bulbs. In this episode, Scott shares his work focusing on the health impacts of light, particularly how near-infrared energy supports mitochondrial function, boosts ATP production, and influences melatonin synthesis. Scott also shares about his research, often in collaboration with melatonin expert Professor Russel Reiter, which has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as Melatonin Research. He argues that modern indoor lighting designed for energy efficiency has inadvertently deprived humans of essential NIR light, contributing to health issues linked to circadian disruption and poor cellular energy. In our LED-toxic "modern" light environment, this is an indispensible episode with an incredible light-pioneer! If you're interested in exploring Scott Zimmerman's NIRA products and tools mentioned in this episode, you can use these links:code ENLIGHTENEDMOOD for a 10% discountORcode VANESSABALDWIN for 10% offSupport the showFind Heather:Book with HeatherHeather's Favorite Quantum Health ProductsHeather's Instagram Find Vanessa:Vanessa's Instagram Vanessa's Website Free Product Guide with Discount Codes Free Homeopathy at Home Guide

BUFFALO, NY — February 24, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on February 10, 2026, titled “Aging-associated mitochondrial circular RNAs.” Led by first author Hyejin Mun from the University of Oklahoma — with corresponding authors Je-Hyun Yoon from the University of Oklahoma and Young-Kook Kim from Chonnam National University Medical School — the study profiles mitochondrial circular RNAs in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) from young and old human cohorts and probes how mitochondrial circRNAs and the mitochondrial RNA-binding protein GRSF1 relate to mitochondrial metabolism and cellular senescence. Using total RNA sequencing of PBMCs from young and old donors and complementary cell-based experiments, the authors report that a large fraction of circular RNA junctions originates from the mitochondrial genome, with MT-RNR2 producing the most abundant circular junctions. They show that circMT-RNR2 levels are depleted in older cohorts and in replicative senescence of human fibroblasts, and that the mitochondria-localized RNA-binding protein GRSF1 interacts with both linear and circular MT-RNR2. Loss of GRSF1 reduced circMT-RNR2 levels, decreased mitochondrial TCA intermediates (fumarate and succinate), and accelerated cellular senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction — findings that link mitochondrial circRNAs to mitochondrial energetics and proliferative status in younger cells. “Taken together, our findings demonstrate the existence and possible function of circular MT-RNR2 during human aging and senescence, implicating its role in promoting the TCA cycle.” The authors note key limitations and outline next steps: clarifying the biogenesis mechanism of mitochondrial circular RNAs (including whether trans-splicing contributes), mapping direct interactions between mitochondrial transcripts and metabolic enzymes, and performing mechanistic studies (in vivo and in additional human cohorts) to test how circMT-RNR2 and GRSF1 influence mitochondrial energetics and organismal aging. These follow-ups will determine whether mitochondrial circular RNAs are actionable targets for modulating mitochondrial metabolism or delaying aspects of cellular aging.

Dr. Abby Borkowski answers top health questions from her Instagram community, focusing on nervous system regulation, gut health, and circadian rhythm optimization.Key HighlightsThe Nervous System & Gut HealthThe Stress Link: Stress triggers a "fight or flight" (sympathetic) state, which halts proper digestion.Root Cause: Most GI symptoms are manifestations of nervous system dysregulation.Lactose Intolerance: While Lactaid pills provide a temporary enzyme fix, the goal is healing the gut lining with L-glutamine, aloe vera, or bone broth.Functional Testing RecommendationsHormones: The DUTCH Test is the gold standard for hormone metabolism and liver detox.Microbiome: A GI Map or stool test is best for autoimmune and digestive concerns.Sleep & Stress HacksLight Exposure: View sunlight within one hour of waking to set a strong cortisol awakening response; this directly dictates your melatonin levels at night.Environment: Keep your room at 65°F or lower and swap LED bulbs for incandescent light at night.Movement Snacks: Take 5-minute movement breaks every two hours to flush stress during the workday.Targeted Health TipsHashimoto's: A gluten-free diet is a primary recommendation for managing this autoimmune condition.Estrogen Dominance: Symptoms like breast tenderness and heavy periods require liver and gut support to metabolize hormones properly.Working with Dr. AbbyInitial consultations last one hour and focus on connecting the dots between your history and current symptoms. Dr. Abby emphasizes that patients must be ready to do the work, as lifestyle implementation is more powerful than any supplement list.Follow Dr. Abby: @dr.abbyborkowski.

En mis viajes siempre me anima saber que puedo descubrir lugares increíbles para darme un chapuzón refrescante. ¿Quieres saber cuáles son las piscinas más bonitas del mundo?En Suiza hay un hotel cuya piscina aclimatada está al aire libre, rodeada de un inmenso paredón de picos nevados. Te quita el aliento, y no por el frío.En el Tíbet (prepárate!), en la ciudad de Lasa (a 3.657 metros de altura) hay un salón de baño con los azulejos revestidos de oro. Ese baño dorado es digno de la nobleza.Y en Swala, Tanzania, es posible nadar con la escenografía de la sabana africana. La diferencia es que todo es de verdad, incluso las jirafas que pasean las cebras que desfilan por ahí.Hay un hotel en Bali, Indonesia, que posee una piscina increíble cuyo borde. infinito se pierde en la selva de un valle cortado por ríos. Un enigmático clima tropical flota en el aire húmedo.En Tailandia hay una piscina que parece que salió de la primera plaga de Egipto. Es rojísima, pero no de sangre, sino de increíbles ladrillos rojizos. Algo muy diferente a lo que hayas visto alguna vez.¿Y en las Maldivas? Abre bien los ojos, porque de noche verás una piscina de lujo que está revestida con más de mil luces LED fluorescentes. Literalmente, tienes la sensación de estar nadando en las estrellas.Debo decir, sin embargo, que ninguna de estas piscinas paradisíacas se compara con el estanque de Siloé. Un mendigo ciego de nacimiento que se lavó los ojos en esas aguas ordinarias provocó todo un revuelo en Jerusalén. El hombre se refregó los ojos y vio su rostro reflejado en el agua por primera vez. Sus gritos se escucharon desde lejos, y eso enojó tanto a los fariseos que encontraron la manera de expulsar al exciego de la sociedad. Pero él se volvió a encontrar con Jesús al final del día y vio por primera vez al hombre-Dios más extraordinario del universo.¡Claro! Ni el oro ni las luces LED son capaces de convertir una piscina cualquiera en un recipiente del poder milagroso de Dios. Solo Cristo pudo y podrá hacer eso en tu vida. Jesús murió en una cruz para darnos vida eterna. Y eso no se compara a ninguna piscina digna de tarjeta postal que pueda haber en este mundo.¿Ya oraste para pedirle al Señor que haga un milagro en tu vida hoy? Él convertirá un estanque común en una piscina infinita. Y nadar solo será un detalle menor en medio de tanta bendición. ¿Estás preparado?

Welcome to Be Bold for Jesus MinistriesOur mission is to equip believers to live boldly for Christ with surrendered, lasting obedience, not faith that fades when the pressure lifts. Led by Lee and Jaclyn Arnold, we teach God's Word with clarity and conviction, calling people to authentic faith that endures beyond the crisis.Today's Message:“When Repentance Doesn't Last”Jeremiah 34:1–22In Jeremiah 34, Judah responds to crisis with promises—but when the pressure passes, obedience disappears. God makes it clear that temporary repentance and public vows mean nothing without wholehearted surrender.This message challenges performative faith and asks a searching question:Is our obedience situational—or truly surrendered?Key Takeaways:• God desires lasting faithfulness, not temporary obedience• True repentance is a direction, not a moment• You cannot claim God's blessing while resisting His authority• Jesus kept the covenant we could notToday's Reminder:God is not mocked, but He is merciful. Because Jesus bore the weight of our broken promises, we are free to walk in real forgiveness and lasting obedience.Choose faithfulness that lasts.Stay Connected:• Sunday Sermons – Live on Zoom & Facebook• Wednesday Bible Study – Interactive & in-depth• Daily Dose of Boldness – Daily encouragement from God's WordBe Bold for Jesus Conference 2026

Today we have Tomer Bar, VP of Security Research at SafeBreach Labs, discussing their work on "Prince of Persia: A Decade of Iranian Nation-State APT Campaign Activity under the Microscope". In this first installment of SafeBreach's deep dive into the Iranian-linked APT known as “Prince of Persia,” originally exposed by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42, researchers reveal that the group never truly went dark after 2022—but instead evolved. Led by Tomer, the investigation uncovers new variants of Foudre and Tonnerre malware, expanded campaign scale, active C2 infrastructure through late 2025, and a shift toward Telegram-based command-and-control. The research provides rare, sustained visibility into nearly a decade of Iranian nation-state cyber operations, offering fresh indicators of compromise and insight into how the group continues to refine its tooling, obfuscation, and targeting.

From Success to Significance: Claus Geissendoerfer on Effective Giving and Purposeful LeadershipIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge speaks with Claus Geissendoerfer, the Director of Programme & Change Management at Amstadd, about the profound shift from professional achievement to personal significance. Claus, an ambassador for the effective altruism movement, shares how his background in high-level change management helped him navigate his own midlife transition toward a life rooted in impact and data-driven philanthropy. Their conversation serves as a masterclass for high-achieving entrepreneurs who find themselves questioning the deeper meaning of their success and are seeking a rigorous, evidence-based approach to contribution and global change.Navigating the Transition from Consumption to ContributionFor many successful business leaders, reaching the peak of professional achievement can unexpectedly lead to a sense of stagnation rather than satisfaction. Claus explains that the traditional "midlife crisis" is often a mislabeled search for meaning, where the antidote is not further consumption but a deliberate shift toward contribution. This evolution requires a willingness to experiment relentlessly with new roles—such as coaching, mentoring, or serving as a non-executive director—to discover where one's skills can solve the world's most pressing problems. By applying the same growth mindset that built their businesses to their personal evolution, leaders can transform restlessness into a renewed sense of mission that extends far beyond the boardroom.True fulfillment is found at the intersection of continuous personal growth and measurable service to others. Claus advocates for a life of "lifelong learning" as a defensive strategy against the decline that comes with professional plateauing. Whether it is mastering the complex physics of sailing to unplug from digital distractions or exploring new professional competencies, staying in a state of active growth keeps an entrepreneur vibrant and prepared for the next stage of their legacy. This proactive approach to self-development ensures that a leader's transition into significance is built on a foundation of refined wisdom and high-level capability rather than a reactive escape from their current reality.Effective philanthropy, much like successful business management, requires a commitment to data and rigorous analysis over mere sentiment. Claus highlights the effective altruism movement, specifically through organizations like Giving What We Can, which encourages individuals to pledge a portion of their income to evidence-based charities. By focusing on cost-effectiveness—such as distributing malaria nets where a few thousand dollars can statistically save a human life—donors can ensure their generosity achieves the highest possible return on impact. This approach allows entrepreneurs to treat their giving with the same strategic discipline as their investments, moving philanthropy from a random act of kindness to a powerful tool for global systemic change.About Claus GeissendoerferClaus Geissendoerfer is the Director: Programme & Change Management at Amstadd and a passionate advocate for effective altruism. With extensive experience in navigating complex organizational changes, he now leverages his expertise to help individuals and organizations transition from traditional success models to lives of purpose, significance, and high-impact giving.About AmstaddAmstadd is a consultancy focused on program and change management, helping organizations navigate complex transitions and operational shifts. Led by experts like Claus, the firm emphasizes strategic discipline and effective leadership to drive sustainable growth and meaningful organizational evolution.Links mentioned in this episode:

Chronic disease isn't just caused by what you eat. In this video, uncover the indoor lighting dangers you probably don't know about! Find out how to stop circadian rhythm disruption, melatonin suppression, and other modern lighting health problems.Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/46POGyB0:00 Introduction: Artificial light health effects1:45 Lux explained2:50 Why indoor lighting is bad for your health4:36 Indoor lighting and melatonin suppression4:57 Indoor lighting and sleep7:44 How to improve sleep and reduce circadian rhythm disruptionLight affects the circadian system, which in turn influences your mood, metabolism, hormones, sleep, and more. The circadian rhythm is a clock controlled by light and dark signals. In our modern-day environment, the days are too dim and the nights are too bright. During the day, sunlight is filtered through glass, preventing exposure to UV and infrared light, and at night, we're exposed to LED lights, TVs, phones, and tablets. We're dealing with a lack of contrast! Historically, humans were exposed to significantly more light during the day and minimal light at night. Modern lighting leads to melatonin suppression and affects your sleep and cortisol levels. Most people are not getting the restful sleep that they need. This affects the metabolism, insulin, blood sugar, and mood. Research has shown that bright nighttime light exposure can increase your risk of type 2 diabetes. Increasing sunlight exposure alone can improve your blood sugar, while evening bright light exposure can worsen it. Constant lighting is even considered psychologically harmful. Humans have evolved with significantly more light contrast, so we're dealing with an ancestral mismatch. To restore your circadian rhythm and combat the harmful effects of indoor lighting, try the following:1. Make your days aggressively brightEnsure adequate sun exposure before noon, and avoid wearing sunglasses. 2. Make the night genuinely dark Turn off overhead lighting, use soft night-lights, and dim screens 3 hours before bed.3. Restore contrast Focus on bright light during the day and remove light sources from your room at night. Replace light bulbs with incandescent lights if possible. Addressing the problems with modern light is one of the easiest ways to improve sleep naturally and restore your circadian rhythm.

Here we are on the threshold of another Lenten season! Since the Paschal mystery is the culmination of the Lenten season, we are going to "begin with the end in mind" by exploring this great mystery of our faith and where it might be playing itself out in our own lives.  Relying on Fr. Ron Rolheiser's description in The Holy Longing, Ruth identifies the five movements of the Paschal mystery and the inner dynamics that can help us enter more fully into our own journey of suffering, death, burial, and transformation. This bonus episode is intended to usher you in to the Lenten season with purpose and thoughtfulness. Mentioned in the episode:  The Holy Longing by Ronald Rolheiser   Music Credit: Kingdom Come by Aaron Niequist Returning from Lent Music in Solitude There's still room to join us in our upcoming course, Theology that Shapes the Soul. Many Christian leaders have a well-formed theology of what they believe about God, but far less clarity about a theology of spiritual formation: how those beliefs shape the way we live and lead. Led by Ruth Haley Barton, Theology That Shapes the Soul is a six-week guided experience for leadership groups who want to engage a biblical, theological, and spiritual framework for Christian formation—not merely as abstract ideas, but as truth to be embodied within communities. The course begins on March 4, 2026. Find out more and register here.   We've started a Substack! This will be “a new home for reflection, conversation, and connection with our transforming community.” Our new Substack is called “On the Journey with the Transforming Center,” and it will include thoughtful reflections from Ruth Haley Barton and the Transforming Center team, as well as alumni and friends of the Transforming Center, occasional special video teachings and guided practices, and space to interact with our content and respond with how God is working in your life through the posts. This will also be the new home of all of our podcast patron content! There will be free and paid tiers. We'd love for you to join us over on Substack.   Support the podcast! During Lent we are providing paid Substack supporters guided practices to help them journey through Lent meaningfully. Led by members of our TC alumni community, these practices include a prayer of surrender, a scripture based breath prayer, a practice of holy naming and truth telling before God, a guided meditation of one of the Gospel accounts of Jesus' passion and more. Become a paid member of Substack today to receive these practices and so much more!   The Transforming Center exists to create space for God to strengthen leaders and transform communities. You are invited to join our next Transforming Community:® A Two-year Spiritual Formation Experience for Leaders.  Delivered in nine quarterly retreats, this practice-based learning opportunity is grounded in the conviction that the best thing you bring to leadership is your own transforming self!

Question of the Day

Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. This segment introduces the "Jesse Scouts," a Union special forces unit formed by John Frémont and named after his wife. Led by figures like John Charles Carpenter, these men wore Confederate disguises to infiltrate enemy lines. Despite their effectiveness as commandos, their lack of discipline led to friction with the regular Army. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. Richard Blazer leads the "Legion of Honor," a hunter-killer team using Jesse Scout tradecraft to fight Confederate partisans in West Virginia. Blazer employs detective work to track down the ruthless Thurman brothers, who attack Union supply lines in the rugged terrain of the Appalachians. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. A failed Union raid on Richmond carrying orders to kill Jefferson Davis prompts the Confederacy to escalate irregular warfare and political influence operations. As the Confederate Secret Service aids the Copperhead movement, author Herman Melville embeds with Union cavalry to witness the hunt for the elusive John Mosby. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. Confederate General Jubal Early threatens Washington, D.C., where Lincolnwitnesses the battle at Fort Stevens. Meanwhile, partisan leader John Mosby operates independently, capturing Union forces at Mount Zion Church. O'Donnell notes that better coordination between Early and Mosby could have endangered the capital. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. Grant orders total war in the Shenandoah Valley to crush Mosby's Rangers. Although Richard Blazer's scouts initially have success with Spencer carbines, they are eventually lured into a trap and annihilated by Mosby's men at Kabletown, where Blazer is captured by Ranger Lewis Powell. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. Lewis Powell, the Ranger who captured Blazer, is revealed to be a Confederate Secret Service operative working with John Wilkes Booth. Powell returns to Baltimore to aid in a plot to kidnap Lincoln, while Mosby deploys troops to secure a potential escape route for the conspirators. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. Harry Harrison Young takes command of the Jesse Scouts, serving as Sheridan'sstrategic eyes in Confederate uniforms. These daring scouts deceive enemy forces and carry messages through enemy lines, enabling Sheridan to move his army effectively to join Grant and trap Lee. Guest: Patrick K. O'Donnell. Robert E. Lee rejects the option of guerrilla warfare at Appomattox, choosing surrender to preserve the nation. Years later, former partisan John Singleton Mosby becomes close friends with U.S. Grant and joins the Republican Party, earning the enmity of many Southerners but symbolizing reconciliation. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. At Appomattox, Grant offers generous terms allowing Confederates to keep horses and sidearms. However, Lincoln does not immediately declare the war over; in his final speech, he focuses on the complex path to peace and suffrage, viewing the surrender as a step rather than a conclusion. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. Following Lincoln's assassination, General Sherman negotiates a surrender with Confederate General Johnston at Bennett Place. Sherman attempts to secure a comprehensive peace including civil matters, but officials in Washington, seeking stricter retribution, reject the terms as too generous, forcing a second, purely military surrender. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. While the Grand Review celebrates victory in Washington, General Sheridan is sent to the Texas border with 50,000 troops to counter French imperial ambitions in Mexico and suppress remaining Confederate resistance. Meanwhile, Confederate General Kirby Smith flees to Mexico rather than surrender his western forces. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. The government utilizes military tribunals to try Lincoln's assassins and Andersonville commandant Henry Wirz, arguing the war is ongoing. Prosecutors hope to pressure Wirz into implicating Jefferson Davis in prisoner atrocities to justify hanging the Confederate president, but Wirz refuses and is executed alone. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. Vorenberg discusses Richard Henry Dana's "Grasp of War" speech, which argued the war could not end until the victor secured guarantees against future conflict. This philosophy, demanding the enemy be held down, contrasted sharply with Lincoln's "let 'em up easy" wrestling metaphor, fueling Congressional debates over reconstruction. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. Vorenberg explains how President Johnson's racism and desire for a hasty peace alienated Congress. Johnson vetoed the Civil Rights and Freedman's Bureau Acts, arguing the war was over. Republicans, however, insisted war powers remained necessary to protect freedmen, leading them to override Johnson and unite against him. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. To undercut radicals, Johnson followed Seward's advice to declare the insurrection ended by executive proclamation in 1866. Vorenberg notes this "official" peace ignored realities like the New Orleans massacre. Simultaneously, Senator Doolittle was misled by General Carlton regarding the mistreatment of the Navajo at Bosque Redondo during his peace commission tour. Guest: Michael Vorenberg. General Grant found himself caught between a hostile President Johnson and Secretary Stanton. Vorenberg describes the disastrous "swing around the circle" tour, where Johnson used Grant'spopularity as a shield while making embarrassing speeches. Witnessing Johnson's behavior, Grant ultimately sided with Stanton, realizing the President was unworthy of his loyalty.
