In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Mitch Guttman from Caltec about ChIP-DIP (ChIP-Done In Parallel). ChIP-DIP is a newly developed approach for high-resolution protein–DNA interaction mapping. The method uses antibody-guided isolation of denaturant-insoluble protein–DNA complexes, resulting in substantially improved specificity and peak definition compared with conventional ChIP-seq. We explore why denaturation resistance is central to the workflow, how the method performs across transcription factors, chromatin regulators, and histone marks, and what experimental parameters determine its success. The conversation also covers current limitations, practical adoption details, and perspectives on how ChIP-DIP fits into the broader landscape of chromatin profiling technologies.

For years, Matt Rooney did what a lot of capable recruiters do. He stayed busy. Took the work that came in. Said yes more often than he should have. Inside private equity, that turned him into what he later called a "utility recruiter". Useful, but reactive. Some years were strong. Others weren't. And it never quite felt like a real partnership with clients. Two decisions changed the direction of his business. Matt narrowed his focus to one role inside private equity: business development and deal origination. Then he made the shift from contingent to retained. Today, Matt is the founder of Coastal Partners. He's gone from closing 3–4 retained searches in his first year as a specialist to being on track for 10 retained searches this year, with the majority of his work now retained. In this episode of The Resilient Recruiter, Matt breaks down what actually made that transition possible. Not theory. Not scripts. Real decisions, real resistance, and what changed once clients started committing up front. This conversation is especially relevant if you run a recruitment agency, lead a small firm, or feel stuck in feast-or-famine despite working hard. What you'll learn: Why being a "utility recruiter" keeps agencies reactive What changed when Matt stopped taking every job How he handled the "no retained experience" objection Why specialisation built confidence and credibility fast How original market data helped him become a trusted partner Why predictability mattered more than volume Episode timestamps: [00:33] Why does contingent feel reactive [03:02] How Matt fell into recruitment [07:11] Feeling stuck as a utility recruiter [12:44] Resisting the idea of niching down [15:18] Why specialisation changed client relationships [19:03] Making the move to retained [20:39] First retained searches and predictability [27:40] Mapping the market and building authority [34:16] Publishing hiring reports and compensation data [35:25] Launching the Deal Sourcery podcast [50:31] Hosting a live panel at a PE conference [55:56] Why Matt would specialise sooner Guest bio: Matt Rooney is the founder of Coastal Partners and specialises exclusively in business development and deal origination roles within private equity. After nearly a decade recruiting across PE functions, Matt made the decision to focus on one specialty. In his first year as a retained specialist, he closed 3-4 retained searches. This year, he's on track to close 10, with the majority of his business now retained. Matt has become a recognised authority in his niche through original market research, publishing quarterly BD hiring reports and an annual compensation survey. He co-hosts the Deal Sourcery podcast with Dan Her—the only podcast dedicated specifically to business development professionals in private equity.

Mapping your parts is a powerful exercise from Internal Family Systems IFS to heal from trauma Learn the skills to Regulate your Emotions, join the membership: https://courses.therapyinanutshell.com/membership Today we're going to do something a little different. We're going to do an exercise from Internal Family Systems called “Mapping your Parts”. In IFS we come to see our different feelings, inner voices, thoughts, urges or habits as “parts” that interact like an internal family. Because when we can see them clearly and learn to listen to them, our parts can start to work together for our good. This exercise can help you when you're internally conflicted, or have a difficult decision to make, or when you keep reacting to a situation in a way that you don't like or understand. IFS is a respected treatment modality for working through trauma or PTSD or Childhood Trauma. Your parts can give you a lot of insight into what's going on. Looking for affordable online counseling?

Rumination isn't only an annoyance, it's a predisposing factor for psychopathology. Here are 5 research-backed tips for changing the chronic thought pattern.summaryIn this ep we talk about practical strategies for managing cyclical thoughts.

In this Continuing Conversations episode, Michael Dismuke, Jim Johnson, and Alex Boer explore innovative ways to track character growth in Star Trek Adventures. Alex demonstrates his visual value-tracking system—using index card-style boxes and arrows to map how values evolve and generate determination through callbacks. The group discusses both digital (Obsidian, Google Sheets) and physical approaches to tracking mission logs, showing how these tools help players stay engaged with their character's moral compass and choices. Together, they unpack how experienced players share determination, reset values between episodes, and use milestones to develop both main and supporting characters—bringing deeper emotional continuity to every mission. https://linktr.ee/studiotembo
Kate Crawford's Long Now Talk traces an historical arc from Renaissance perspective to AI image models, illustrating how shifts in representational power shape empires, economies—even our shared sense of reality. During the talk, Crawford gives a tour through her detailed artwork Calculating Empires. Through examples ranging from Liebig's critique of agriculture “robbing” soil nutrients, to Faraday's latex insulation that devastated rubber forests, Crawford shows how technologies have long created “metabolic rifts”: systems that extract more than they regenerate. Don't miss the closing Q&A, where host Kevin Kelly asks Crawford what responsible, non-extractive AI might look like.
In this second episode of the Habits Series, Lesley breaks down how to actually make a habit stick without rigid streaks or all-or-nothing thinking. She explains why random reminders usually fail and why pairing tiny actions with routines you already do is far more effective.

Because celebration creates a dopamine high in your brain. Your brain feeds off of that, and so it starts to remember. Lesley Logan 0:09 Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:52 Hi, Be It babe. How are you? Welcome back to our sexy Habits Series. We're bringing sexy back. You know what? We're bringing it back in the habits way, because truly, everything that we want in our life and being it till we see it is just a series of habits that we intentionally put into our lives. And if we don't intentionally do it, then we end up with a bunch of other people's habits or demands and needs or things we think should be doing, and we wonder why our life is miserable or it's not what we want, or we're exhausted or burnt out. And so this is the second episode on series, and we're going to dig into what we talked about in the last one. So I will say, normally, I joke around saying, if you haven't listened to the first one, you can listen to this and then go back. No, go, listen to the first one. It's right below. Sometimes this, in your feed, sometimes it can be really hard. If you're on the OPC app, or Profitable Pilates app, it's easier to find. On Apple, you have to, like, go to the show and then find it. But anyways, you want to do this whole series, has one thing, okay, starting from the beginning, I know we like to skip ahead, but you know. Lesley Logan 1:52 So, I'm gonna do a little review of what we talked about in the last episode. Was just that, like, there is no such thing as a bad habit. There are habits that maybe no longer serve us, which we we talk a little bit like what serves you in the Anthony Benenati episode, so feel free to check that out. But all, everything that we have as habits is telling our brain something that feels good, because our brain is actually running away from shame and guilt and stress into things that actually make us feel good. So even if you don't like something you think it stresses you out. There's something that it's giving you that is why you keep going after it. Okay? Lesley Logan 2:25 So, the other thing we did was we actually talked about how you need, like, something you need to do before you can actually add a habit to your life, which is, get really clear on what you want. So for the example we used, I said I wanted to read more. Then we put up a bunch of ideas on how I could read more. And then we did a little procedure we figured out on a scale of want to do, don't want to do, hard to do, easy to do. And we came up with a few ideas, right? So get your sheet out, because that's what we're going to use for this next episode. And we're going to we're going to do one habit at a time. So we're also going to talk about how to add a habit into your life. And we're also going to go about why prompts don't work. And I talked about something a little bit in the first episode, and I'm going to reiterate why it's important to do it in here. So, before we can go back to our piece of paper, of the quadrants, I think it's best to talk about right now, like where habits can go in your life. So I mentioned that there's things that we do automatically every day, how we wake up in the morning. That's a habit. What we do after we take our first step, second step, like, in what order do you go the bathroom, brush your teeth, wash your face, whatever those things are that you do, right, when you get your coffee. There are things that we do naturally. Why is that important? Because in the in the studies of behaviors and habits, BJ Fogg found, and this is proven by a lot of companies, prompts like dings, don't help, because we actually tend to ignore it. So your phone going take your medicine, right? If your medicine is right there, it's easy for you to do the prompt, but if your medicine is not there, you ignore it. And once you ignore it one time, it's actually really easy to ignore the second time, and all of a sudden you've just been ignoring it for weeks. I have reminders on my phone from a year ago that I just ignore, like I don't even know, I don't delete it, but like, it's now a habit to just ignore it. So prompts only work if you're actually in the place to do the thing that you said you would do. Now, look, I understand people like, oh, I do the Pomodoro method, Lesley, when the bell goes off, I easily switch. That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about like you are, you have a timer going off to go for a run, but you're stuck in a meeting, right? We want to make sure that whatever prompts you have, like, we don't want to set you up for a failure, where you have prompts to do something and then you could possibly not be able to do the thing, to ignore the prompt. We don't want that. So in the last episode, I talked about like, scheduling in time to read. That's an easy habit. I want to do it. Why won't that work?Lesley Logan 5:05 Well, one, my schedule changes every single week, so I'm gonna have to do this regularly. It's gonna happen. I'm actually gonna have to make it a habit to go to my schedule and add this in. But, two, if the prompt goes off that it's time for me to read and I don't have my book with me, it's so easy for me to ignore that prompt that it becomes a thing in my schedule I don't even look at, right? So we don't that's not a perfect habit for me to have. There was another one that set a timer to read for 20 minutes. That can work as long as the habit of grabbing the book is already in place, having it go for 20 minutes might help me, my brain not go, Oh, my God, I have to be somewhere like it might having a timer might actually calm my brain to actually do the reading. But that would be another habit I have to create is to set the timer on top of the book. So it's not gonna be the easiest thing for a habit person to do, right? To make a habit around. So, so prompts are anything that you put that's gonna be a prompt to do the thing you want to do. I'm going to encourage you to think not about that and not use that, because I I don't want it to be your phone prompting you. What if your phone's not around when that prompt goes off? So there's, see how it's easy for this to fail. So going back to we already naturally do things. So this is how we're going to create habits. This is the key to the kingdom. This, if you get nothing else from this habit series, this is the thing. There are things we naturally do, typically around morning, afternoon and evening, typically around meals, where we wake up, we go to bed. So I mentioned I wanted you to observe what you do every day during the day, so in the morning, what are the things you naturally do? Remember in the first episode, I said, oh, I want to add a cold plunge when I'm going to do it my day. So I went through my day and I sort of go, okay, the cold plunge, first of all, it's important to know where the cold plunge is. It is in the back of my house, right? So it's near my bedroom. It's not in my bedroom, it's near my bedroom. It's in the same room that I do my makeup. It's the same room that my hats are, my accessories, all that stuff is there. Okay? It's this extra bathroom. So I in the morning, I get up before the cold plunge would happen, I would get up, go to the bathroom, put on some sunscreen and grab my allergy medicine, drink some water, take the dog for a walk, right? After the dog walk, I come back, I would make my coffee, make his breakfast. I used to have a little extra, like nutritious drink in there. Do that. Then I would do my Pilates. Then after my Pilates, I would make some breakfast, and then I would go into the shower, then I get ready for the day, then I do my makeup, then I sit down on my desk, right? So that's my morning. So you can hear there's like, some things that I do, like naturally we, those of us who drink coffee, we drink we don't even go there's no time or going up time to make my coffee. And back to my prompts example, like you don't have that you just naturally do it, right? There's no time you're going up when it's time to floss your teeth. You just do it after you brush your teeth. So same thing around lunchtime. What do I do around the middle of the day? Well, after I finish my last thing before my lunch break, I get up, I go in the kitchen, I make my lunch, I sit down at the table. After I'm done with my lunch. Then I typically go back to work, right? And then after work, I do blah, blah, blah, blah. And then before bed, it looks like walking the dog, taking a shower and putting my phone on the charger, going to sleep. Okay, so that might be what you write down. So I want you to take a piece of paper and just like start to write down all the things you just down all the things you just do automatically, okay, and the morning, afternoon, evening. Once you know this, then it makes it easier for us to go, okay, well, when are we going to add something in? So to add the cold plunge, and I can look, well, where can the cold plunge be? It definitely doesn't fit once I've gotten ready for the day, and I don't want to cold plunge before bed, so it has to happen before I get ready, before I get ready for the day. Okay, so then I can actually start to play with, okay, so is it after I go to the bathroom I can go for the cold plunge? Is it after the dog walk that I go for the cold plunge? That's where I can play with it, right? Something I got it when I got a shake plate, I had to do this, like, when am I gonna do this shake plate thing? It's like, okay, should I do it after I go to the gym? Should I do it after a dog walk? So you kind of want to put it somewhere where you already are doing something that you already easily do. No problems. You never miss. Okay? After, here, after, I'm gonna say, after a lot, okay, so once you have figured out a places where the new habit can go. So for my example, I want to read more. And I said it might be easy, and I want to do is to read a book at breakfast. So basically, I have to think about like, where do I have my breakfast? I have my breakfast at the kitchen table. So after I sit down at the kitchen table, I will pick up my book. Notice how I didn't say I'd read my book. We'll talk about that in a little bit, but I'll pick up my book. So that can be that's where I can have the habit, because I'm trying that one out. Another one I said I would try out is I'd read when I play a video game, which means I have to think about when I'm playing my video game, all right. And to be honest, I could absolutely replace reading with playing my video game when I'm on, when I'm just, when I'm not, like, in a car, I can go, oh, when I'm in a car, like my video game, but when I'm at home, right? This one's a little harder, because I don't actually have a set time that I do it. It's just something that I do. So that's going to be a bit more advanced, and I'm just going to put that one, I'm going to table that one for right now. And then I said I would set a timer for 20 minutes. That's more of a remember, I have to have a habit to do the habit. So what I can do for right now is just put, let's just focus on reading at the breakfast reading while I have breakfast, okay. Lesley Logan 11:08 So now that I have my idea of what the habit is, I'm going to try to create, which is I'm settled on, pretty sure it's going to be reading at breakfast. Now I have to make the habit really small. So you heard me specifically say, Okay, I'm going to after I sit down to have breakfast, I will pick up my book, because right now I don't have the habit of reading at breakfast, so I cannot go after I sit down, I'm going to read my book for 20 minutes. That is a lot. I'm not used to doing that. I might not even be aware of all the different things I kind of do during breakfast. Like, if I think about it, sometimes I'm having breakfast and I'm talking to a girlfriend. Sometimes I'm having breakfast. I'm also like, getting by on a snack. Like, and like, because I think I sit down and I just like, hang out at breakfast. I think this is a good time, but I have to test it. I have to experiment with it. So I have to make it very small. I pick up my book this way I can actually have an achievable goal. One of the reasons why so many people struggle with building habits is they make it too big. So a lot of you are like, oh, I want to have better sleep, so I'm not going to use I'm not going to look at my screen two hours before bed, right? But two hours before bed, what if you usually are checking the email and setting alarms and sending texts to friends, and there's a lot of different things, and you don't have anything else that you're doing. So what if that tonight you actually, an hour before bed, then don't check your phone, you feel like a failure because you said you wouldn't do it for two hours, and you only did it for an hour. In that case, I would say, I, you know, after I brush my teeth, to go to bed, I put my phone away, right, so that, like, there's a set prompt that's physical, that's already a habit, you have to put your phone away. And then as I get stronger, maybe it's after I have dinner, I put my phone away, or after I start making dinner, I put my phone away. Do you see how we can like, we can have a better prompt, but we want to make it as small as possible so it could be achievable and we can celebrate ourselves. Okay? So that's the habit I'm going to work on this week is after I sit down for breakfast, I'm going to pick up my book. Okay? Lesley Logan 13:20 I want this week to be your practice. So between now and our next episode on habits, we'll have an FYF, and then we'll have an episode about habit stacking, because I know a lot of you want to work on more than one habit at a time. We'll talk about that next week. But between now and then, while you're experimenting, here's the other thing you have to do. So one, you make it really small, tiny, tiny, tiny. Two, you have to celebrate. You have to celebrate that you did it. So after I sit down to have breakfast, I pick up my book, and then I'm going to say I'm amazing, or I'm going to high five myself, or I'm going to jump up and down, or I'm going to play my favorite song, or I'm going to tell, tell, text my friend. Oh, my God, you won't believe this, I picked up my book I said I was going to read, right? I have to celebrate. If I sit down, start eating my breakfast, almost finish and go, oh, oh, my God, I forgot. I'm supposed to grab my book. I'm going to celebrate that I remembered it. And if I can do it, I will grab my book. Why do we need to do this? Because celebration creates a dopamine high in your brain. Your brain feeds off of that, and so it starts to remember. Every time I pick up a book, I feel good about myself. So I am going to remember to pick up this book because after I picked up this book, I felt really good about myself. After I remembered this book, I felt really good about myself. So when you celebrate, thinking about doing the habit, or actually doing the habit, and you celebrate, you are well on your way to creating a habit. They do not take 21 days. They take a dopamine high. They take an emotional good feeling. That's what they take, okay, so already, like, I'm like, so excited. go pick up a book I get, my brain is like, where is this book? What's so, what's so cool about this is when you do it like this, when it's not from a timer and it's not out of all or nothing, oh my God, I picked up my book, but I couldn't read for 20 minutes like I said, I would I only read for 10, I'm such a loser, that actually stresses the brain out, makes the brain go I don't even want to look at the book. You won't even see the book at the table, because your brain is like, I don't want to see that, because it makes me feel bad about myself, and I don't want to feel bad at myself. But when you actually celebrate it, your brain starts to see all the different times you can read a book. So here's what happens, right? What will happen is, I won't just be reading the book at breakfast. I'm going to start reading books twice, two different times during the day, because my brain is going to be seeking out opportunities for me to read my book, to pick up my book, but notice how I said I'm going to practice this week, just picking up my book and celebrating that. So if you want to make coffee for two, maybe the habit is just putting two cups on the counter, right? If you want to move your body more. Maybe the habit is putting on the running shoes or setting out the clothes to go to the gym or picking the workout you would have done. You know, we tell OPC members like if you're not used to being consistent with a Pilates practice, maybe the habit is just logging in and pressing play. Anything you do after that habit is extra credit. Okay? So, extra credit. If all I do this whole week at breakfast is pick up the book, I have done my job, I get to celebrate. Okay? So I think that that is a good spot for us to leave today. So think about the different ways you like to celebrate if you're struggling with the celebration part, my perfectionist, because it's something so small and who cares? BJ Fogg does have like, 100 different ways you can celebrate, and he has a really cool thing in his book on how to figure out which ways you would like to celebrate you've got kids. It's so easy because you can just go high five, I picked up a book, and it's like I picked up a book, like, we can all create a habit picking a book, right? So you you can do it with them. But some of us need like it to be verb, like auditory. We hear it. Some of us need to like move our body in celebration. Some of us need to play a song. Do not go if I do this all week long, then I have a reward. That's not how habits are created. Doesn't work that way. Has to be in the moment. Has to be something great, okay, something that makes you feel really, really good. So want you to practice that this week. We'll come back next week and we'll dive into how to stack another habit on top of this, and how to expand the habits that you are basically growing here, right? Like, what comes next? How do I know that we can, you know, go from just picking up the book to opening up the page. When does that happen? So we'll go into that more in the next episode. Until next time, Be It Till You See It. Oh, but also, I want to know what habit you're working on. What are you practicing on? DM me, a DM to Be It Pod or tag me so I can celebrate you, right? Like it's really helpful when other people are cheering you on as well, to cheer yourself on. Thank you so much. Have an amazing day.

In this week's episode of Your Drone Questions. Answered, host Chris Breedlove sits down with Stefan Hrabar of Emesent to unpack one of the most important emerging technologies in the drone world: SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping).What exactly is SLAM? How does SLAM LiDAR differ from traditional LiDAR systems? Can SLAM work without GPS? And—most importantly—how can drone pilots, mapping professionals, and service providers actually use SLAM-based payloads in real-life missions?Stefan talks about:His robotics and autonomy background—from early USC drone research to global deploymentsHow SLAM evolved inside Australia's CSIRO labsThe origins of Emesent and the development of the Hovermap systemThe difference between visual SLAM, LiDAR SLAM, and mixed-sensor approachesWhy SLAM is becoming essential for GPS-denied environmentsReal-world use cases: underground mining, bridge inspections, cell towers, indoor scans, stockpiles, and moreHow modern SLAM payloads integrate with platforms like the Freefly Astro and DJI enterprise dronesNew capabilities such as autonomous exploration, waypoint-based scanning, and constrained SLAM with RTK or control points
Michael Bonner shares how he's recalibrating after a hectic season—surviving field trips, refining routines, and planning intentionally for 2026.

Episode Summary: In this episode, Ann Pearson gets straight to the heart of the biggest challenge paralegals face managing an overwhelming workload. Skipping the usual intro, Ann dives right into why so many paralegals feel behind before their day even begins, and why that feeling has nothing to do with their competence. Drawing from her own early-career story of last-minute assignments and impossible timelines, Ann explains the real reason paralegals struggle: no one ever teaches them the systems and structures needed to stay ahead of the chaos. To change that, she introduces a four-step blueprint that helps legal support professionals move from reactive to proactive workload management. Ann also walks listeners through the first section of her new Paralegal Survival Toolkit, a free eight-part resource designed to help paralegals build clarity, control, and confidence in their daily work. As the episode unfolds, she reassures listeners that while the legal workload will always be heavy, the overwhelm doesn't have to be. Key Takeaways: Workload overwhelm is normal and fixable: Feeling behind is not a personal failing; it's part of the legal profession. What can change is your system for handling the workload. Prioritize by impact, not urgency: Inbox urgency is often an illusion. Instead, look for items tied to court deadlines, client deliverables, strategic decisions, or workflows that move a file forward. Map the work before you start the work: Most overwhelm happens because tasks aren't broken down. A project like "prepare discovery responses" contains 8 - 10 steps. Mapping creates clarity and reduces stress. Verify deadlines and assumptions every time: Asking clarifying questions isn't being difficult - it's being professional. Confirm deadlines, expectations, and whether a draft or final version is needed before you begin. Eliminate micro time wasters to reclaim hours: Small inefficiencies, repeated searches, rewriting emails, constant notifications, lack of templates, or unclear instructions add up quickly. System fixes unlock weekly time savings. You can't change the workload, but you can change your control over it. Heavy workloads are unavoidable, but overwhelm isn't. Skills and systems, not more hours, are what make the difference. Get the free Paralegal Survival Toolkit. The downloadable toolkit includes the workload clarity checklist, prioritization prompts, and a project-mapping template. It supports this episode and the seven episodes that follow.

Podcast Show Notes – Episode 259 | 12.09.2025 Episode Title: Stop Wasting Your Life: What Most People Realize Too Late This episode isn't about simple goal setting; it's about confronting how much of your life you spend working without ever questioning whether it leads to fulfillment. Sean Barnes breaks down the hard truth behind chasing titles, money, and the corporate ladder, and why so many people wake up later in life feeling unfulfilled. This reflection pushes you to look honestly at where you are on your life timeline, what truly matters, and whether you're living in a way you won't regret.

This deep dive comprehensively challenges the foundational materialist model by synthesizing cutting-edge biological research with decades of high-strangeness data, including near-death experiences (NDEs), the UAP phenomenon, and reports of paranormal events. The central conflict addressed is whether reality consists of separate physical things or is fundamentally an expression of a unified, non-local field, leading to the essential question of whether physical matter creates consciousness or is merely its byproduct.The sources argue that science, while possessing immensely powerful models capable of precise description (how gravity or cells work), fundamentally fails to provide the ultimate explanation (why these laws exist), creating a "total black box". This distinction between description and explanation highlights the historical hubris seen in the late 19th century, when influential physicists believed "everything had already been discovered," only for Relativity and Quantum Mechanics to shatter the perceived fixed laws of reality soon after. This failure of explanation persists today, making highly descriptive data, such as military UAP reports, intractable because the required underlying theory of existence is missing.The inadequacy of the materialist view forces a paradigm shift to reality defined by non-physical information and pattern, termed the Platonic blueprint. Abstract truths, such as the constant π or the Fibonacci sequence, are discovered, not invented, and exist as fixed, immutable relationships independent of physical matter. This suggests they are the "deep architecture" or scaffolding upon which the physical universe is built.Physical matter is reduced to an "epiphenomenon"—a secondary effect or byproduct, like smoke from the fire that is the primary field.The brain is thus viewed not as the source of consciousness, but as a "localized receiver" or terminal jacked into a non-local network. Consciousness must be the operating system itself, given that cognitive scientists view spacetime as merely an interface or "headset" designed for survival, meaning the brain, which exists inside that construct, cannot possibly create consciousness. This concept of consciousness as a non-local field is overwhelmingly validated by experiential data from NDEs, where survivors often report a sense of oneness and intuitive, expansive knowledge that cannot be explained by the local brain, such as a blind woman suddenly understanding calculus.Dr. Michael Levin's work aligns with this pattern-based view, focusing on agency and goal-seeking capacity regardless of material composition. He defines the self by the scale of its goals—its "cognitive light cone". Disease, like cancer, is reinterpreted as a failure of collective cognition where cells shrink their light cone and revert to a primitive, selfish imperative. Experimental systems like xenobots, which are simple cells demonstrating sophisticated, complex competencies like kinematic self-replication without any evolutionary history for the behavior, strongly suggest that the patterns for these minds are pulled from a pre-existing latent space, the Platonic field.Ultimately, the sources conclude that reality is a participatory universe, where observation shapes outcomes and the distinction between the observer and the observed is dissolved. The UAP phenomenon exemplifies this by its "highly reflexive" nature, mirroring the witness's culture, trauma, or expectation. This deliberate ambiguity—the phenomenon persistently staying "just out of reach"—is crucial, as it forces humanity to constantly upgrade its understanding of reality, ensuring that the game of discovery and developmental growth continues. #NonLocal #cancercure #PlatonicBlueprint,.#ConsciousnessIsFundamental #ParticipatoryUniverse #PostMaterialism #MichaelLevin #CognitiveAgency #Brain #UAPPhenomenon #Xenobots #REALITY #HighStrangeness #BigBang

This week we welcome back the dynamic duo of digital dentistry, Blake Roney and Patrick Dewey from S.I.N. 360 (https://sin360.us/) (Simplicity • Innovation • Nanotechnology) for a massive deep dive into implants, photogrammetry, and the ever-evolving world of full-arch workflows. Since their last visit in 2022, Blake has gone from new kid on the block to full-blown Exocad (https://exocad.com/) educator, and Patrick breaks down how S.I.N. has doubled down on innovation across implants, CAD/CAM, and photogrammetry. The guys walk us through the new Versalis implant line (https://sin360.us/versalis/), why one connection for all indications is a big deal for labs, and how S.I.N. is pushing efficiencies for high-volume, complex full-arch clinicians. Then comes the star of the show: the MicronMapper (https://sin360.us/micronmapper/)—a lighter, faster, more accurate photogrammetry system that doesn't just capture implants but verifies manufacturing accuracy, scans soft tissue, and reduces surgical guesswork. Blake breaks down real-world accuracy numbers, what RMSE actually means, why intraoral scanners aren't cutting it for full-arch, and how FitCheck is saving labs from misfires, wasted zirconia, and bad days. They also reveal the newest frontier: Tissue Mapper, a photogrammetry-based, scanner-free workflow that pulls bite, tissue, and implant data without fiducials or messy post-op scans. It's nerdy, innovative, and ridiculously cool for the high-volume teams ready to level up. If you love accuracy, numbers, full-arch workflows, or just really good dental tech nerding — this is your episode. Happy Holidays from Ivoclar!

Partnered with a Survivor: David Mandel and Ruth Stearns Mandel
The house looks perfect from the street—until you step inside and feel the air shift. We sit with survivor, campaigner and author David Challen to trace the shape of coercive control through a child's eyes: a mother's world shrinking, a father's rules governing every room, and a son trying to earn love by molding himself to a script that never fit. This is not a tidy true-crime arc. It's the long echo of control on identity, mental health, and the stories boys are told about how to be men.David unpacks how “small” acts—who can visit, when dinner is served, how money is spent—stack into a total system of power. He names what many miss: economic abuse as a lever, isolation as a tactic, gaslighting as the daily weather. We talk about the man box and the costs of belonging, from silence to self-erasure. We tackle the hard part too: accountability that goes beyond time served. Real repair means naming strategy and impact, especially on children who lived the consequences, and measuring change by consistent, relational behavior over time.For practitioners, we get specific. Speak to children separately. Document patterns, not just incidents. See acting out, addiction, or stoicism as possible signals of exposure to domestic abuse. For schools, use relationship education to decode media, practice empathy, and give boys language without shame. For survivors—especially adult child survivors—claiming identity and community can turn a private burden into shared understanding and support.Search terms like coercive control, boys' mental health, domestic abuse, economic abuse, restorative justice, and healthy masculinity thread through this conversation for a reason: they're the keys to earlier recognition and real change. If this resonates, share it with someone who needs language for what they've lived.

In this episode, host Beau Wigington chats withJustin Lafond — applications engineer (ESAB) who calls the role the “Swiss Army knife” of welding support.Kaeleigh Wilkins — 3M Metalworking Application Engineer who moved from sales into a highly technical role without an engineering degree.Frank Vargas — national sales leader focused on relationship-driven technical selling in welding distribution.Cody Vigeant (American Welding Program) — on what makes a great instructor in today's rapidly changing trade.Austin Hargett (“Dr. Welds”) — on staying energized as a welding instructor and balancing life, side work, and the classroom.Key Topics Covered:Why many high-pay welding careers don't require holding a stinger every day (inspection, applications, distribution, education).Applications engineering: field problem-solving, process development, training, and customer saves—plus the reality of travel.No engineering degree? Mapping hands-on welding experience to technical job descriptions (Kaeleigh's playbook).Distributor roles: technical sales and “solution finder” jobs that value people skills and fluent welding lingo.Teaching welding: avoiding burnout, finding the “small wins,” and staying current with robots/cobots.Future-proofing: adaptability and cross-process literacy as automation spreads.Memorable Quotes:“We're the Swiss Army knives… expected to do all of it, anywhere, anytime.” — Justin Lafond“You can't really learn our job unless you're out there in the field doing it.” — Justin Lafond“I'm the only person on the team without an engineering degree… you can still be a fit if your experience matches the need.” — Kaeleigh Wilkins“The welding trade is moving at the speed of light—instructors have to stay keyed in.” — Cody Vigeant“The little wins from former students are what keep you going.” — Austin HargettSave 20% On Related American Welding Program Courses With WELD20 https://foxly.link/9T3dtcGuest Contacts:Justin Lafond - Applications Engineering (ESAB)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-lafond-5a650b313Kaeleigh Wilkins - Application Engineering (3M)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kaeleigh-wilkins Frank Vargas - National Sales Manager (Uniweld)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/frank-vargas-0273a173 Cody Vigeant - Manager of Education Solutions (American Welding Program)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cody-v-b4a857145 Austin Hargett (“Dr. Welds”) - Brand Ambassador / Operations Manager (Weld.com)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/austin-hargett-2545ba20a Connect with Beau WigingtonInstagram: @beaudiditwelding — https://www.instagram.com/beaudiditweldingLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/beauwigingtonEmail: beauw@weld.comDownload the WELD App: https://foxly.link/Qj0VEa
Partnered with a Survivor: David Mandel and Ruth Stearns Mandel
The conversation opens with End of the Year reflections and personal milestones—international book releases, masterclasses, collaborations and community work—and quickly moves to a timely, thorny question: can we talk honestly about male violence without “shaming” men? We take a stand for courage, honesty and clarity, using global data, real cases, and practical frameworks to show how accountability, truth about behaviours and their impact and compassion can live side by side. Our goal isn't to score points; it's to keep families safer, support children's well-being, and help men find a way back into healthy connection.We share insights from research in Australia, including applications of the Safe & Together Model in child and family services and in Aboriginal-led settings. That work underscores a core theme: organize around shared values, not shared trauma. We explain why labels and decontextual tags fail families, and why pattern-based, contextual practice—mapping behaviors, impacts, and risk—succeeds. Along the way, we address restorative justice and carceral responses with nuance: both can help or harm depending on how they're used, and some people do require firm containment. The standard remains constant—what increases survivor safety, improves children's stability, and creates the strongest opportunities for behavior change.We also unpack the “shame” debate with care. Shame is a human emotion; the task is to guide it into inclusive responsibility, not silence the conversation. The facts are clear: men are disproportionately perpetrators of serious violence, and boys growing up amid coercive control learn dangerous scripts about loss and power. Naming this is not man-bashing—it's a necessary move toward balance, health, and prevention. We close with a story of loving confrontation that strengthened a father-child bond, offering a model for how accountability can deepen connection rather than destroy it.If this resonates, subscribe and share the episode with someone who cares about safer families, effective practice, and honest conversations.

Sermon, "Mapping Out Your Journey", by Gregg Rice from the Lewiston Church of Christ on December 7, 2025.
On participating in your life by orienting to practice; befriending time to stabilize your mind, meditating polarities to map your world. (0:00) – Introduction to Nevine Michaan and Her Journey (2:26) – The Katonah Yoga Calendar (6:36) – The Concept of Mapping in Yoga (16:48) – The Magic House and Personal Responsibility (20:55) – Balancing Self-Actualization and Interbeing (36:15) – The Role of Numbers and Measurement in Yoga (39:03) – Practical Techniques for Maintaining Energy and Vitality (39:16) – The Importance of Personal Responsibility and Discipline (39:33) – The Role of Myths and Fairy Tales in Understanding Yoga (39:51) – Final Thoughts and Practical Advice Born in Egypt in 1954, Nevine moved to New York at the age of three. In her early 20's, while studying history and comparative religion at Vassar College, she discovered meditation. She understood that there is a function, a formality and a fit to the universe and that yoga is a tool, a technique – a practice with repetition which gives us the opportunity to participate in life with intelligence and joy. Nevine started a daily practice in NYC with renowned yoga instructor Allan Bateman in the 1970s and became fully immersed in what would become her life's work. She began teaching yoga in 1978, and founded the Katonah Yoga Center in Katonah, New York in 1986. Nevine seamlessly relates her approach to yoga through comparing it to the likes of a musician. Her artful use of metaphor is one of her most well honed techniques when articulating her teachings, which are empowered by her practical approach to integrating the mind, the body and the breath. Nevine continues to teach both online and in person through her studio, the Katonah Yoga Collective in Bedford Hills NY and others throughout the community.

OUR AWESOME GUEST This WEEK: Paul Cuneo Change doesn't start with a neat plan. It starts with the knowing that your current path no longer fits, and the quiet nudge that something braver is calling. We sit down with Paul Cuneo, creator of the Hero's Journey Odyssey Experience, to explore how ancient story patterns and Jungian psychology can turn that restlessness into a reliable map for reinvention. From the call to adventure to the ordeal and the return, Paul shows how each stage reflects an inner identity shift—and how recognizing where you are can reduce fear, clarify next steps, and restore momentum.Paul's unconventional path from music and movement to acting and identity work reveals a key insight: the world doesn't need a perfect performance, it needs your singular presence. That principle anchors his client work. When the ego gets loud—demanding certainty and control—intuition speaks in whispers that are easy to miss. Paul offers practical ways to hear those signals, “follow the firefly,” and clear the hidden blockages (guilt, old stories, outdated defenses) that keep solutions out of reach. One powerful reframe: you don't have to give up who you are; you only have to release the belief that you need certain traits to be safe. Set the sword down so both hands can be in the work, and pick it up again only when it's truly needed.We also unpack a liberating lens on agency: reality versus agreement. Buildings are real; businesses are agreements. Labels are agreements. When you see how much of your life you've consented to, renegotiating becomes possible. If you agreed, you can change the terms. By mapping your journey, honoring the old identity with gratitude, and stepping toward the new one without clinging, hard stops feeling like failure and starts feeling like progress. If you're navigating a career pivot, a relationship shift, or a deep reinvention, this conversation offers structure, language, and tools to move forward with courage. If it resonated, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review—we'd love to hear which stage of the journey you're in now."One of the MOST profound, think outside the box episodes I've experienced while hosting the show" - Brad WeismanHi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

With long-term health, the mouth is often overlooked. For most people, the dentist is someone only seen for a cleaning or to fix a problem like a cavity or crown. However, according to Dr. Jonathan B. Levine, a world-renowned oral health expert, we are undergoing a massive paradigm shift. It is time to stop seeing the mouth as separate and recognize it as a critical data center for your entire body's well-being. This new approach, which Dr. Levine's practice calls "mouth mapping," is poised to change how we manage everything from heart disease to sleep. The Biological Connection: Mouth Mapping for Longevity For decades, dentistry and medicine have operated in "siloed" worlds, but Dr. Levine explains that this separation is political, not biological. He stresses that "the mouth is connected to the rest of the body". The mouth is the second-biggest microbiome after the gut, containing over 600 species. When it is unhealthy, foundational research shows that pathogenic bacteria can cause "leaky gums, like leaky gut," giving harmful bacteria a direct route into the bloodstream. Research has found bacteria associated with oral disease in the inner walls of the carotid artery in people with cardiovascular disease. The connection, he says, is undeniable, linking oral health as a causal factor or risk factor for diseases including diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and pancreatic cancer. The statistics are staggering: 70% of the adult population has some type of inflammation in the mouth, and North of 55% suffers from periodontal disease (chronic inflammation). Studies show that as periodontal disease increases, rheumatoid arthritis also increases, and P. gingivalis has been found in the amyloid plaque of Alzheimer's patients. Mouth Mapping Diagnostics If your mouth is a window to health, "mouth mapping" is the diagnostic toolkit used to look through it. This integrative approach goes beyond just looking for cavities. Dr. Levine's practice, Smile House, uses a "digital workflow" to create a complete profile of your oral and systemic health. This "mouth mapping" can include: Saliva pH Testing: A simple, first-line indicator, as "the bad bugs thrive in a low pH environment". Salivary Diagnostics: Saliva is sent for analysis to get a readout profile of 200 bacteria in about 10 days, educating patients on the specific pathogenic bacteria they possess and the risks they pose. CBCT (Cone Beam CAT Scans): This 3D scan analyzes anatomy from the "Top of the nose to the airway," showing how well the airway is functioning and if it is anatomically small. Blood Prick Testing: This new model of dentistry even includes checking "inflammatory markers in your blood," such as C-reactive protein. The Oral Physician This rich diagnostic data is shared with the entire health team. Dr. Levine is pioneering the concept of the "oral physician". Because patients typically see their dentist more regularly than their primary care physician, the dentist is uniquely positioned as the "tip of the spear" for addressing chronic inflammatory diseases early. This allows care providers to "go upstream" and build a "wellness model". For instance, using a CBCT scan, an "oral physician" can immediately spot issues like a deviated septum that causes mouth breathing and prevents "deep regenerative sleep," leading to an immediate referral to an ENT specialist. A New Pillar of Longevity For years, longevity experts cited motion, nutrition, and stress management as the pillars of health. Dr. Levine argues it is time to add the pillar of oral health. Understanding how important a healthy mouth is "will lead to longevity". This collaborative, integrated model marks the future of healthcare, moving away from the "sickness model" and toward true wellness. This innovation means that "If you're in an innovative dental office, you shouldn't be able to recognize it... Today, it's a new day". In this podcast you will learn… Why the mouth is considered a critical data center for the entire body's well-being. How pathogenic bacteria from "leaky gums" can enter the circulatory system and contribute to conditions like cardiovascular disease. That inflammation in the mouth is linked to diseases such as diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, pancreatic cancer, and Alzheimer's. The function of specialized diagnostics used in mouth mapping, including Salivary Diagnostics and 3D CBCT scans. Why the dentist, acting as the "oral physician," is considered the "tip of the spear" for catching chronic inflammatory diseases early. Why Dr. Levine argues that oral health must be added as a fourth pillar of longevity alongside motion, nutrition, and stress management.

Housekeeping carts that move themselves. Trash that “walks” to the compactor. In this episode, Seth talks with Reid (President, Nightfood Holdings) about the rise of robots-as-a-service for hotels and venues. No lobby gimmicks—these bots live behind the scenes, moving dirty linens, clean deliveries, and waste so staff can focus on higher-value guest work. We cover real operations (elevators, mapping, safety), privacy (U.S. servers, on-prem options), and why the biggest ROI is fewer injuries + faster turns, not flashy concierge robots.What you'll learnWhy back-of-house automation beats front-of-house gimmicksHow robots “tour,” self-learn maps, call elevators, and run scheduled routesRobots-as-a-service: implementation, supervision, and uptime guaranteesPrivacy by design: U.S. servers, on-prem “island” installs for sensitive sitesExpansion beyond hotels: malls, convention centers, medical, governmentSeth's Companies Vstock Transfer – https://www.vstocktransfer.com/ Share Media – https://www.sharemedia.co/Connect with Seth LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethfarbman/Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/sethfarbmanstockTikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/@sethfarbmanTwitter (X) – https://x.com/sethfarbman1About the Show From Startup to Stock Exchange, hosted by Seth Farbman, unpacks how founders scale from idea to public markets—covering growth, capital strategy, branding, and the mindset it takes to build companies that last.Timestamps00:00 Intro — robotics > buzzword, real hotel use-cases 01:02 What TechForce Robotics actually does (and why the pivot) 02:08 Back-of-house focus: trash & linens, not lobby greeters 03:30 Do staff feel threatened?

Partnered with a Survivor: David Mandel and Ruth Stearns Mandel
A stadium's worth of men—every year. That's the scale of new IPV use suggested by Ten To Men, Australia's landmark longitudinal study of male health. We sit down with research fellow Karlee O'Donnell a Researcher with the Australian Institute of Family Studies to unpack what the data really says about how depression, suicidality, paternal warmth, and social support shape men's risk—and what actually works to prevent harm.Across a decade of surveys, one in three men self-reported using some form of intimate partner violence. Yet within those hard numbers are practical levers. Men who strongly felt they received warm, respectful affection from a father or father figure were nearly half as likely to perpetrate IPV later. That's not about father presence; it's about the quality of care boys see and absorb. We translate that insight into real-world steps: father-inclusive perinatal care, concrete coaching on warmth and de-escalation, and programs that treat caregiving as core to men's health.We also dig into mental health pathways without reducing IPV to mental illness. Men with moderate or severe depressive symptoms were significantly more likely to use IPV later, and men with suicidal thoughts, plans, or attempts carried elevated risk independent of depression. We explore how anger, externalizing behaviors, and coercive control intersect with distress, and why services must protect partners while caring for the suicidal person. Clinicians get a roadmap: use screenings as early-warning signals, educate on escalation, build coping skills, and connect men to support before behavior hardens into harm.Finally, we highlight the quiet power of social support, which lowered the odds of IPV onset, and we make the case for policy that rebuilds men's community ties and includes fathers from day one. Healthier men mean safer families and stronger communities.

In this episode, we sit down with astrologer and psychological guide Meli Neubek for a grounded, insightful exploration of how astrology can deepen self-understanding and offer a clearer lens on the collective shifts unfolding as we approach 2026. Meli shares her personal journey into astrology, how she blends evolutionary and psychological frameworks, and why self-inquiry, intuition, and agency matter more than ever in times of rapid change. Together we unpack the major planetary movements shaping the coming years, the importance of staying curious rather than fatalistic, and how each of us can navigate emerging cycles with clarity, responsibility, and authenticity.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:32) Opening Conversation(07:12) Introducing Meli Neubek(10:08) Meli's Journey and Personal Growth(24:57) Why Meli Resonates with Astrology(38:53) The Whole Sign House System(39:40) Different Astrological Perspectives(40:42) Integrating Astrological Knowledge(42:19) Astrology and Human Experience(48:57) 2026 Astrology Reading(53:50) Pluto's Transition from Capricorn to Aquarius(01:09:44) Neptune Entering Aries: Dreams into Reality(01:14:41) Uranus Moving into Gemini: Shocking the System(01:16:29) FAA Disruptions (Uranus in Gemini)(01:17:32) Historical Context of Uranus in Gemini(01:18:34) Future Predictions and Technological Advancements(01:20:14) Uranus and Pluto: Historical Impacts(01:24:19) Nervous System Overload and Practical Advice(01:26:02) Astrological Insights for 1981-1982 Births(01:27:20) Summary of 2026 Astrological Events(01:36:03) Yerasimos' Astrological Reading(01:41:27) Joel's Astrological Reading(01:50:02) Closing ThoughtsGuest LinksDownload Meli's 2026 Guide to Neptune + UranusCelestial Curiosities PodcastBook a reading with Melihttps://www.instagram.com/melineubekConnect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links
Mapping Complex Mind States: EEG Neural Substrates of Meditative Unified Compassionate AwarenessIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and Dr. Poppy Schoenberg explore the neural mechanisms behind advanced meditative states, specifically those linked to non-duality, emptiness, and awakened awareness. Using EEG, this study mapped brain activity during different stages of Indo-Tibetan essence-of-mind meditation, revealing decreased self-referential processing and increased executive control in regions such as the anterior cingulate cortex and insula. The findings suggest that meditative states of deep compassion and awareness involve distinct neural patterns, challenging conventional models of consciousness. Tune in to discover how meditation transforms the brain and fosters selfless awareness.Full Reference:Schoenberg, P. L. A., Rufa, A., Churchill, J., Brown, D. P., & Brewer, J. A. (2018).

The first known map of Lake Superior was drawn by Virginian John Mitchell in 1755. Over the centuries, countless records of the shoreline, depths, lighthouses and communities have been published. But now, there's another map in the works. This one by the United States Geological Survey. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Jamey Jones, Science Coordinator for the USGS's Earth Mapping Resources Initiatives, or Earth MRI. He shares what this project hopes to accomplish, particularly when it comes to locating the area's rare earth minerals and contributing to the publicly available data on metals deposits in the Lake Superior region.

I sit down with advocate and researcher Raul Montero, best known for his work on the Long Island Serial Killer and for creating a groundbreaking map that tracks thousands of missing and unidentified persons. Raul talks with me about how his journey began with curiosity about a local case and evolved into a mission of compassion, focusing less on the perpetrators and more on honoring the victims and their families. His story is one of how a little bit of curiosity can make a world of difference.To view Raul's map and other resources:https://tr.ee/mMSjDScP8L---Submit your question or express interest in joining the 2025 Listeners Episode here: https://forms.gle/yf9aRU7BokGUTAFj6Contact me at silverliningshandbookpod@gmail.comCheck out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-storeVisit The True Crime Times Substack at:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linings Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.

My guest is Dr. Jennifer Groh, PhD, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke University. She explains how our brain encodes sights and sounds and integrates them so we can navigate and understand the world around us. She explains what thoughts really are and how what you focus on determines your thoughts, not just in that moment but your future thoughts too. We discuss this in the context of how to improve your level of focus and happiness and how to complete tasks and task-switch more effectively. We also discuss how you can rewire the neural circuits that underlie your default patterns of thinking and attention.
