Podcasts about Maintenance

Fixing the leaks, not just buying bigger mops. That’s the theme of the National Infrastructure Plan released today. It looks at 17 sectors covering central government, local authorities, and commercially regulated utilities. The 30-year outline sets out how New Zealand can improve the way it plans, funds, maintains, and delivers infrastructure... and guess what, it turns out we don’t do it very well. Each year we invest just over $20 billion on infrastructure, yet on a dollar-for-dollar basis we achieve less than many of our international peers. Today on The Front Page, New Zealand Infrastructure Commission Chief Executive Geoff Cooper will take us through this mammoth report. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.

De l'écriture littéraire à la maintenance aéronautique, le fossé peut sembler difficile à franchir. En 2008, à la demande d'Air France Industries, Daniel Picouly (Prix Renaudot 1999) a pourtant accepté de relever le défi. Fils d'un chaudronnier d'Air France, et élevé dans les parages d'Orly, l'écrivain, immergé dans l'entreprise d'aujourd'hui, s'est appuyé sur ses souvenirs pour donner « Sous les ailes de l'hippocampe », un texte à la fois sensible et didactique qui magnifie les métiers de la maintenance aéronautique moderne.Gérard Maoui en lit un extrait.Commander en ligne : Sous les ailes de l'hippocampeHébergé par Ausha.

What has changed since last year's State of the Nation (SONA) promises? At last year's SONA, water infrastructure was particularly framed as a national priority yet in parts of Johannesburg, the heart of South Africa's economy, and in municipalities across the country, taps still run dry. Treatment plants fail. Maintenance collapses. Phumi Mashigo, along with Dr Ferrial Adam from WaterCAN, a civic organisation focused on water accountability, look at how this all came to be and whether we can have hope that the dire situation will actually improve.

I don't think most women understand the concept of eating at maintenance calories vs maintaining their weight on deficit calories.If you're eating 1,400 to 1,600 calories and not losing weight, this episode is for you.One of the biggest misconceptions I hear from women in menopause is this:“I must be eating at maintenance because my weight isn't changing.”But maintaining your weight and eating at your true maintenance calories are two very different things.After years of chronic dieting, your metabolism adapts. Your body learns how to survive on fewer calories, fat loss stalls, energy drops, digestion slows, sleep suffers, and belly fat becomes harder to lose. Most women blame menopause, but what's really happening is an underfed metabolism.In this episode of Mastering Menopause, I break down:• The difference between maintenance calories and metabolic adaptation• Why eating more is often the first step to fat loss after 50• How chronic dieting downregulates your metabolism• Why the scale jumps when you increase calories (and why it's not fat gain)• How restoring calories helps reduce belly fat and improve energy• Why maintenance calories are the foundation for sustainable fat lossI also explain how I calculate true maintenance calories for my clients, why most women are not actually at maintenance, and why trying to diet harder on already low calories is exactly why fat loss has stopped working.This episode is especially for women who feel stuck, tired, frustrated, and afraid to eat more, even though what they're doing clearly isn't working.Your metabolism isn't broken, it's underfed.I also share details about my new 4-week Metabolic Fat Loss Accelerator, where we spend two weeks restoring metabolism at maintenance calories before moving into a strategic fat loss phase. This is the same process I use with my one-on-one clients, just in a faster, structured format.If you're ready to stop chronic dieting and start working with your metabolism instead of against it, this episode will give you clarity and direction.https://go.katalystfitness.net/fatloss-acceleratorThank you so much for listening, please share with a friend and subscribe so you don't miss an episode!If you want to see how we can help you on your journey, book a quick 10-15 minute call so we can chat about your goals!https://www.menopotmeltdown.com/quickchatnow Now accepting clients!

Send a textResolutions fade fast when they aren't backed by steady habits, so we're putting structure first: the simple difference between lead and lag indicators, and how that mindset keeps both your business and your house out of trouble. We walk through the weekly inputs that actually move the needle, from outreach and education to checklists that turn big goals into bite-size tasks you can repeat without thinking.Then we take that same lens to home ownership. Houses don't have warning lights, and thaw season can be brutal: one warm day after a deep freeze and suddenly sump pumps fail, downspouts disconnect, and gutters overflow right into the foundation. We break down the small, preventive moves that stop big messes: test the pump with a bucket, reconnect and extend downspouts, clean gutters, and make sure grading sends water away from the walls. None of it is expensive, but skipping it can flood a basement, short out equipment, and drain your budget.We also explain why a periodic maintenance inspection is worth its weight in peace of mind. Pros bring moisture meters, thermal imaging, and the experience to spot slow leaks in attics and crawl spaces before they become disasters. The findings become a practical honey-do list: prioritize essentials, schedule the rest, and build a two-year rhythm that includes radon testing whether or not you have a system. Along the way, we share why septic systems need predictable pumping, how to avoid wrecking a leach field, and how simple skills like caulking and patching get better with practice and save money for years.Ready to trade emergencies for a calm, low-drama home?

The founder and CEO of Savvy Aviation explains the need for on-condition maintenance for GA, the proper roles of aircraft owners and mechanics, his Inspection Authorization training course, and his new Aviation Masters podcast. In the news, American Airlines is under fire from pilots and flight attendants, AA's financial performance, the departure of AOPA’s CEO, a United Airlines lawsuit, and the Inspector General audit of air traffic controller training. Also, an Airplane Geeks host announces his new aviation podcast. Guest Mike Busch is the founder and CEO of Savvy Aviation, which provides aircraft owners, operators, and maintenance professionals with expert guidance grounded in data-driven, reliability-centered maintenance principles. Through maintenance management, education, and advocacy, Savvy helps the General Aviation community improve safety, reliability, and cost control. Mike Busch, Savvy Aviation founder and CEO. Mike argues that general aviation aircraft are often over-maintained, wasting both owners' time and money while straining already limited mechanic capacity. He believes the industry should shift its focus toward on-condition, or reliability-centered, maintenance. Mechanics, he says, need to be trained to think critically—not just follow the manufacturer's book. By applying reliability-centered maintenance and working on-condition, our existing mechanics could be more efficient. Mike also outlines what a healthy, collaborative relationship between owners and mechanics should look like. SavvyAviation has introduced the free, FAA-accepted SavvyCertified training course designed for mechanics studying for Inspection Authorization renewal. Mike reports that many aircraft owners signed up for the course and find it valuable. He also has a new podcast called Aviation Masters. Mike is a well-known aviation writer, teacher, aviation type club tech rep, aircraft-owner advocate, and entrepreneur. He assists aircraft owners with their maintenance problems through his lectures, articles, and books. Mike is a National Aviation Maintenance Technician of the Year and has previously appeared in Episode 446 (April 5, 2017) and in Episode 667 (August 25, 2021). Aviation News Allied Pilots Association Delivers Scathing Ultimatum to American Management In a letter to the American Airlines Group Board of Directors, the Allied Pilots Association (APA) Board of Directors says, “Our airline is on an underperforming path and has failed to define an identity or a strategy to correct course” and “…it is the result of persistent patterns of operational, cultural, and strategic shortcomings.” “For more than a year, APA has voiced concerns regarding management's ability to turn the corner. Management has been given repeated opportunities to articulate a credible strategy and demonstrate measurable improvement. Those opportunities have passed without meaningful change. Despite repeated assurances, the operation continues to struggle under predictable stressors, exposing systemic weaknesses in preparation, execution, and decision making. These consequences are shouldered by our customers and employees every day. “ “These failures have negatively impacted the financial performance of our company and frustrated all stakeholders, to include shareholders, for far too long.” “American is no longer best in class financially, operationally, or in customer service. The pilots of American want our company to win and dominate the competition, not just survive and compete. Our careers are intrinsically tied to the fate and performance of this once-great airline.” The Allied Pilots Association (APA) is the collective bargaining agent for American Airlines (AA)  pilots. Founded in 1963 and representing more than 16,000 pilots, the APA says it is the world’s largest independent pilots' union. “Shame On You”: American Airlines Flight Attendants Call for Shareholder Coup to Oust CEO Unlike the APA, the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA) is calling for American Airlines’ chief executive, Robert Isom, to step down. In an internal memo addressed to Isom, APFA Chicago O'Hare base president Justin Patterson says, “I would like to say, sleeping on floors is NOT normal. Shame on you for trying to normalize this inhumane treatment. Doing the same thing on repeat and expecting different results [is] the definition of insanity.”  Patterson asks, “Do you intend on running this airline with piss poor planning and posting minuscule profits again in 2026?” And “This company failed more than just the Flight Attendants… they failed everyone who works here. American Airlines failed our shareholders. They were derelict in their duties to our shareholders.” APFA is the official crew union that represents more than 28,000 AA flight attendants. Passengers Left Stunned By Miniature Tray Tables on American Airlines New Long-Haul A321XLR American Airlines flight attendant Heather Poole has posted on X photos of the new Economy cabin tray tables. Table depth is half what you'd normally expect from a tray table. A standard laptop will overhang the smaller tables, and the standard AA long-haul meal tray will as well. The table does not fold out or extend. Pressure mounts on American Airlines CEO as carrier lags rivals In 2025, Delta Air Lines posted $5 billion in net income with a 7.9% profit margin. United Airlines posted $3.3 billion in net income with a 5.7% margin. American Airlines made $111 million last year with a 0.2% margin. AOPA's Hiring a Crisis Communications Firm AOPA's board has reportedly hired a crisis‑management firm on a $250,000 retainer to handle intense backlash over the abrupt departure of CEO Darren Pleasance on February 4, 2026. Off-Duty FAA Inspector Claims He Got Lifetime Ban from United After He Pointed Out Alleged Safety Concerns Paul Asmus said that after a May 2022 flight where he pointed out his safety concerns, United removed him from the flight and gave him a lifetime travel ban. Asmus is suing United for $12.75 million in damages. The civil suit claims loss of wages, emotional distress, and punitive damages. Asmus, an FAA Inspector but off-duty, claims that he noticed a “torn seat-back pocket at his assigned seat,” which “impaired the ability to secure and access the emergency briefing card” and a passenger standing in the aisle while the aircraft pushed back from the gate. Asmus believed that he had an obligation to report the violations he observed and took photographs for an FAA report. Audit Initiated of Air Traffic Controller Training at the FAA Academy The U.S. Department of Transportation, Office of Inspector General announced the initiation of an audit. The Memorandum, Audit Announcement | Air Traffic Controller Training at the FAA Academy [PDF] (Project ID 26A3002A000), dated February 5, 2025, states that: “…the Academy is facing considerable challenges with training, including a shortage of qualified instructors, training capacity limitations, an outdated curriculum, and high training failure rates. Given the importance of increasing the number of certified controllers to safely manage the NAS, we are initiating this audit. The audit objectives will be to assess (1) FAA's efforts to address the Academy instructor shortages, training limitations, and trainee failure rates and (2) the Academy's progress with updating the air traffic controller training program curriculum.” The OIG plans to begin the audit “in the coming weeks.” The Office of Inspector General (OIG) works within the Department of Transportation (DOT) to promote the efficiency and effectiveness of DOT programs and operations and to detect and prevent waste, fraud, and abuse.  See the OIG Active Audits list.

Scripture reminds us that wisdom often begins with counting the cost. As the average age of a first-time homebuyer approaches 40, many people are asking an important and sincere question: Is now the right time to buy a home—or should we continue renting?That question usually reflects a desire to make a wise, lasting decision—one that supports long-term stability rather than undermining it. Before comparing monthly payments or imagining life in a new space, it's worth taking a clear-eyed look at what it truly costs to move from renting into homeownership.The Upfront Costs Many First-Time Buyers MissOne of the biggest surprises for first-time buyers is the sheer cost of getting into a home. The pre-approval and closing process involves numerous expenses, including appraisals, inspections, credit reports, earnest money, title searches, loan origination fees, and closing costs. Taken together, these can add up to thousands of dollars before move-in day ever arrives.For renters transitioning to homeownership, these costs are typically paid out of pocket. That's one reason many advisors encourage having close to 20% of the purchase price available—not only for a down payment, but to create margin for the entire process. This isn't about delaying dreams unnecessarily; it's about ensuring homeownership doesn't begin with financial strain.Many renters feel a growing weariness with paying rent month after month, especially compared with building equity. That desire for something tangible and lasting is understandable—but it's important to remember that rent is not wasted money.Rent pays for shelter, safety, maintenance, and predictability. It meets a real and ongoing need and, in that sense, pays for a valuable service. During certain seasons of life, that flexibility and stability can be a wise and intentional choice.Understanding What a Mortgage Really IncludesIt's also helpful to understand how a mortgage payment actually works. A typical payment includes principal, interest, property taxes, homeowner's insurance, and often private mortgage insurance if you own less than 20% of the home's value. In some cases, HOA fees are also added.In the early years of a traditional 30-year mortgage, a significant portion of each payment goes toward interest rather than reducing the loan balance. Thirty-year mortgages can still be wise—they keep payments manageable and allow flexibility if you want to make extra principal payments—but they are designed to be long-term loans. Early equity growth often comes more from market appreciation than from paying down the balance.Rising home prices can create fear about waiting too long, pushing buyers to act before they're ready. While market trends are worth paying attention to, they shouldn't be the deciding factor. A home should fit your current season of life and support your responsibilities and priorities—not stretch your finances or limit your ability to live and give faithfully.It also helps to release the pressure of finding a “forever home.” On average, first-time buyers stay in their homes seven to ten years. Career changes, growing families, and life transitions often make moving a natural part of the journey. The first home simply needs to perform well in the current season.Rising Costs Don't Disappear with OwnershipRising rents are another common frustration, especially when lease renewals result in higher monthly costs. But owning a home doesn't eliminate rising expenses. While a fixed-rate mortgage keeps principal and interest steady, property taxes and homeowner's insurance typically increase over time. Even after a mortgage is paid off, those costs remain.Maintenance is another reality worth considering. Once you own a home, repairs are your responsibility—roofs, plumbing, electrical systems, and heating or cooling issues can bring unexpected expenses. While insurance offers protection, deductibles and coverage limits often mean high out-of-pocket costs, and filing claims may lead to higher premiums later.Renting, by contrast, offers predictability. Repairs are the landlord's responsibility, which can provide stability during periods of debt reduction or saving. The phrase house poor exists for a reason. Buying before you're ready can strain budgets, limit generosity, and leave you feeling trapped rather than thankful.While homeownership can be a blessing, it's not a measure of faithfulness—and it isn't right for every situation. Sometimes, the wisest choice is to continue renting, patiently preparing for what comes next, and trusting that God's timing is often kinder than our urgency.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'd like to understand what an irrevocable trust is and how it works.I have $30,000 I'd like to invest outside of real estate. I won't need the money for about 10 years. Where would you recommend investing it?I took out high-interest loans to pay for my wife's dental work, but my hours have since been cut, and I've drained my savings. Is there a way to consolidate this into one lower-interest loan so my payments actually reduce the balance?About 25 years ago, I filed for bankruptcy for around $3,500 when I was struggling financially. I'm in a better place now and receive my ex-husband's Social Security. Is there any way—or reason—to repay that old debt?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)List of Faith-Based Investment FundsChristian Community Credit Union (CCCU) | AdelFiSoFi | Marcus | LightStream | Bankrate | NerdWalletCharles Schwab Intelligent Portfolios | FidelityOur Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful StewardshipWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

Welcome to your Midweek Motivation!This week, Gina is joined by the manager of the Weight Loss Program, Kim. Together, they remind listeners to start with a simple vibe check and get honest about how they're really doing, especially in the middle of a 91-day commitment to themselves. They unpack the difference between choices that truly bring joy and the habits or triggers that keep people reaching for “bites of bits,” encouraging self-awareness instead of guilt. With real talk about the damage diet culture has done and why sustainable change requires more than just following a food plan, they reinforce that weight loss is as much mental as it is physical.You can find the full video hosted at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ginalivymaintenanceandmindfulnessTo learn more about The Livy Method and our Maintenance & Mindfulness group, visit livymethod.com.

In this episode of Gov Tech Today, hosts Russell Lowery and Jennifer Saha dive into a new trend in government contracting: transforming maintenance and operations (M&O) into modernization opportunities. They examine how traditional M&O contracts are increasingly including system improvement requirements, effectively shifting from simple maintenance to significant technological upgrades. This approach allows government agencies to modernize within existing budgets, avoiding the complexities and scrutiny of new IT projects. The discussion also explores the balance between maintaining existing systems and leveraging M&O contracts for continuous modernization. 00:00 Introduction to Gov Tech Today00:24 Exploring Maintenance and Operations (M&O) Opportunities01:06 Shifting from Maintenance to Modernization01:50 Evaluating Contracting Processes and Budget Impacts04:41 Maximizing Value from M&O Contracts07:42 Vendor and Government Collaboration12:57 Final Thoughts and Future Directions

Episode OverviewMac Brown joins host Marvin Cash for this Casting Angles episode of The Articulate Fly, a fly fishing podcast focused on practical instruction and technique refinement. With winter weather keeping many anglers off the water across the mid-Atlantic and southern Appalachians, Mac and Marvin discuss how to use this downtime productively by organizing gear and preparing equipment for the upcoming season. The conversation covers essential off-season maintenance tasks including line cleaning, wader re-treating, fly box reorganization and boot cleat maintenance. Mac shares his custom tippet management system that prevents fumbling for tippet in freezing conditions and emphasizes the importance of getting fly weight systems dialed in before prime fishing returns. The discussion also touches on the transition from winter's deep freeze to early spring fishing opportunities, with Quill Gordon hatches beginning as early as mid-February on National Park streams and post-spawn streamer fishing on tailwaters like the South Holston and Watauga. This episode provides a comprehensive checklist for serious anglers to ensure their gear is ready when weather breaks and fishing conditions improve.Key TakeawaysHow to organize fly boxes by weight and technique during the off-season to streamline on-water efficiency when the season begins.Why washing and re-treating waders now prevents cutting into prime fishing time during peak spring hatches.How to create a reliable tippet management system using elastic and clear tubing so you never struggle to find the tippet end in cold conditions.When to expect the earliest hatches in the southern Appalachians, with Quill Gordons appearing in mid-February on National Park streams.Why the first warm day after extended cold spells consistently produces excellent fishing as water temperatures rise from the mid-30s.Techniques & Gear CoveredMac emphasizes moving away from traditional split shot systems because mashing lead onto tippet significantly weakens the tippet when wet, instead favoring organized weight systems built into flies. The discussion covers comprehensive line cleaning protocols for multiple setups, particularly for lake fishing applications where having several lines ready prevents last-minute scrambling. Mac details his custom tippet management method using elastic and clear tubing (similar to New Zealand strike indicator material) that keeps 2 inches of tippet exposed and prevents the frustrating search for the tippet end when fingers are numb. Boot maintenance receives attention with the recommendation to install fresh 5/8-inch sheet metal screws using an eighth-inch driver to maintain traction. The episode also addresses seasonal gear rotation, including moving chemical hand warmers, nitrile gloves and other cold weather gear in and out of fishing kits as conditions change.Locations & SpeciesThe episode references winter conditions across Charlotte, Swain County and western North Carolina, where snow and single-digit temperatures have kept guides off the water for nearly two weeks. Marvin mentions an upcoming post-spawn brown trout streamer trip on the South Holston and Watauga Rivers near Johnson City, taking advantage of warming trends with temperatures reaching 60 degrees. Mac discusses early-season opportunities on National Park streams in the Smokies, where Quill Gordon hatches begin in the second or third week of February—some of the earliest dry fly action in the country. The conversation also touches on Mac's

It stresses that while platforms provide tools, a successful SEO strategy relies on consistent effort and quality content.Impact of Google UpdatesListeners will learn about the real-world consequences of Google's algorithm changes, including the importance of continuous link building, content updates, and monitoring search engine results pages (SERPs).Website InfrastructureThe conversation covers the technical aspects of hosting and infrastructure, contrasting the self-hosted nature of WordPress with the managed hosting provided by Webflow. This includes considerations of scalability, performance, and DevOps.Analytics and TrackingThe importance of comprehensive analytics is highlighted, going beyond basic platform-specific metrics to include tracking AI mentions and utilizing tools like Google Search Console to gain a deeper understanding of website performance.Timestamps[00:00] Introduction: WordPress vs. Webflow[03:37] Google Algorithm Update Discussion with Ryan[07:00] SEO Strategy & The Importance of Backlinks[20:00] Comparing Platform-Specific Features[26:00] Hosting, Infrastructure, and Scalability[32:00] WordPress's Dominance in the Market[38:00] Technical Requirements and Maintenance[47:00] Integrating Email Marketing with Flowdesk[50:00] The Future of Analytics and AI Tracking[56:00] Best Practices for Website Development[72:30] Closing Remarks and Preview of Next EpisodeFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)1. Which platform is better for a beginner with no coding experience?Webflow is generally considered more beginner-friendly due to its visual editor and managed hosting, which simplifies the setup and maintenance process. WordPress, while powerful, has a steeper learning curve and requires more hands-on management of hosting, plugins, and security.2. Can I achieve good SEO results on both WordPress and Webflow?Yes, both platforms offer robust tools to implement a strong SEO strategy. The key to success is not the platform itself, but the consistent application of SEO best practices, such as creating high-quality content, building quality backlinks, and optimizing for relevant keywords.3. How important are plugins for a WordPress site?Plugins are essential for extending the functionality of a WordPress site. They can add features for SEO, e-commerce, security, and more. However, it is crucial to use well-coded plugins from reputable sources, as an excessive number of plugins or poorly-coded ones can slow down your website and create security vulnerabilities.4. What are the main cost differences between WordPress and Webflow?Webflow operates on a subscription model with different pricing tiers based on features and traffic. WordPress is open-source and free to use, but you will incur costs for hosting, domain registration, premium themes, and plugins. The total cost for a WordPress site can vary widely depending on your specific needs.5. What was the key takeaway from Ryan's experience with the Google update?The main lesson from Ryan's story is that SEO is an ongoing process. Relying on past success without continuous effort in link building, content creation, and technical updates can leave a website vulnerable to algorithm changes. It highlights the importance of staying proactive and adaptable in your SEO strategy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
