Staying the course as a Christian is not something you can do by yourself. As Paul sets out his vision for these fledgling believers, he urges them to pay close attention to their relationships. Listen in.

Welcome back to another edition of The ‘X' Zone Radio Show, coming to you from our broadcast center in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.My guest tonight is Doug Elwell, theologian, researcher, and the author of Planet X, The Sign of the Son of Man, and the End of the Age. Doug brings a unique blend of biblical scholarship and astronomical investigation to the controversial and often misunderstood subject of Planet X.Is there a hidden celestial body lurking in our solar system? Could it be the same “sign” referenced in ancient scripture that heralds the end of the age? Doug joins us to unravel the clues, connect ancient texts to modern science, and offer his take on what might be one of the most significant prophetic warnings of our time.Buckle up, ‘X' Zone Nation — we're heading into deep space, biblical prophecy, and the hidden history of Planet X.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

You can sign the letter here. The Trump administration has been retaliating against its critics, and people and groups with business before the administration have started laundering criticism through other sources with less need for goodwill. So I have been asked to share an open letter, which needs signatures from scientists, doctors, and healthcare professionals. The authors tell me (THIS IS NOT THE CONTENTS OF THE LETTER, IT'S THEIR EXPLANATION, TO ME, OF WHAT THE LETTER IS FOR): The NIH has spent at least $5 billion less of that money than Congress has appropriated to them, which is bad because medical research is good and we want more of it. In May, NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya told a room full of people that he would spend all the money by the end of the fiscal year. That is good news, because any money not spent by that point will disappear. The bad news is the fiscal year ends on September 30th and according to the American Association of Medical Colleges, “the true shortfall far exceeds $5 billion.” Our open letter requests that Dr. Bhattacharya do what he said he would and spend all the money by September 30th. We as the originators of the letter do not want to be named publicly because we are concerned about being the focal point for blame and retaliation. We would rather be members of a large crowd of signatories than be singled out as individuals to make an example of. Based on our understanding of current administration norms, we do not expect retaliation against private individuals who sign this letter. We are looking for signatures from scientists, doctors, and healthcare professionals. So if that is you, please sign here. If you want to help support the letter more broadly, email nihfundingletter@gmail.com. Our stretch goal is to have a thousand people sign the letter within the next two weeks. To hammer home (since many people failed to understand it) that this is not the contents of the letter, I am including the actual contents below: We, the undersigned scientists, doctors, and public health stakeholders, commend your commitment to spend all funds allocated to the NIH, as reported in The Washington Post. At the same time, we are concerned by reports that U.S. institutions received nearly $5 billion less in NIH awards over the past year. With less than one month to the end of the fiscal year, we submit this urgent request to ensure that your commitment is upheld. If you anticipate that all appropriated funds cannot be spent in time, we request a public disclosure of the barriers preventing the achievement of this crucial responsibility. We present this request in the spirit of the broad, bipartisan consensus in favor of spending appropriated NIH funds. In their July letter to the Office of Management and Budget, fourteen Republican senators, led by Senators Collins, Britt, and McConnell, forcefully argued that suspension of NIH funds “could threaten Americans' ability to access better treatments and limit our nation's leadership in biomedical science.” The case for investment in medical research transcends political divides as it serves our collective national interest. The return on investment from research is compelling. Synthesizing the empirical literature, economist Matt Clancy estimates that each public and private R&D dollar yields roughly $5.50 in GDP—and about $11 when broader benefits are counted. Every dollar of NIH funding not deployed represents lost opportunities for breakthrough treatments, missed chances to train the next generation of scientists, and diminished returns on America's innovation ecosystem. Spending these funds is also a competitiveness imperative as China attempts to transform itself from a low-end manufacturer to a high-tech research and innovation juggernaut. In 2024, the Chinese government increased its spending on science and technology by 10%, and the nation's total expenditure on research and development increased by 50% in nominal terms between 2020 and 2024. As China's number of clinical trials and new drug candidates begin to outpace the U.S., America cannot afford to allow biomedical research funding to go unspent. We respectfully ask that you ensure that NIH will obligate all FY25 funds by September 30, 2025, and, if that is not possible, that you address the scientific community to explain why and what must be done to ensure all appropriated funds are spent in FY26. We stand ready to support your efforts to preserve this vital national investment. https://readscottalexander.com/posts/acx-open-letter-to-the-nih

GDP Script/ Top Stories for August 7th Publish Date: August 7th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, August 7th and Happy birthday to Wayne Knight I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett commissioners narrowly OK grant funds for maternal health clinic A former Gwinnett student got into McConnell Middle School while carrying a knife Gwinnett Technical College police department achieves full state certification Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on peaches All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett commissioners narrowly OK grant funds for maternal health clinic Gwinnett County commissioners were split this week, narrowly approving a $450,000 grant for Georgia Wellness Group, a Lawrenceville maternal health clinic that’s sparked heated debate. Critics, mostly Democrats, have accused the clinic of being “anti-abortion” and linked it to Obria, a controversial organization. The 3-2 vote came after hours of back-and-forth. Commissioners Ben Ku and Kirkland Carden wanted the clinic removed from the funding plan, but others, like Jasper Watkins, pushed back hard. “This is not a fake clinic,” Watkins said. “They’re licensed, accredited, and provide critical care to hundreds of women.” Georgia Wellness insists it’s no longer tied to Obria and focuses on affordable prenatal care, STI testing, and maternal mental health. Still, tensions ran high, with local Democrats calling the clinic manipulative and unregulated. STORY 2: A former Gwinnett student got into McConnell Middle School while carrying a knife Two days into the school year, and Gwinnett County Public Schools is already dealing with a scary situation—a former student sneaking into McConnell Middle School with a knife. Principal Derico White told parents in a letter that the individual slipped in through a side door early Tuesday morning, before classes started. Thankfully, no students were inside yet. “Our staff acted quickly,” White wrote. “The person was escorted to the front office and taken into custody by police, who found a knife during a search. No threats were made, and no one was harmed.” This incident comes as GCPS is rolling out $19.3 million worth of weapons detection systems across its schools—a process that’s still underway. It’s unclear if McConnell had any devices installed yet. STORY 3: Gwinnett Technical College police department achieves full state certification Gwinnett Technical College’s police department just hit a major milestone: full state certification from the Georgia Law Enforcement Certification Program. It’s a big deal—kind of like the gold medal of public safety in Georgia. Getting there wasn’t easy. The department had to prove it meets over 100 professional standards, from ethical conduct to community engagement. “This is a testament to our police force’s dedication,” said Gwinnett Tech President Dr. Glen Cannon. “They’ve set the bar high for campus safety.” The certification process dug deep into policies, procedures, and day-to-day operations, ensuring the department is ready to handle the unique challenges of a college campus. This recognition isn’t just about a badge of honor—it’s about creating a safe, supportive space for students, staff, and faculty. Gwinnett Tech’s commitment to safety and integrity shines through, and now they’re part of an elite group of law enforcement agencies across Georgia. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 3 STORY 4: Another Gwinnett family is mourning loved one whose body was found on Bell Mountain Months after 19-year-old twins Qaadir and Naazir Lewis were found dead on Bell Mountain, another tragedy has struck the same spot. On July 19, Towns County deputies discovered the body of 38-year-old Norcross resident Phat Tan Bui inside his car in the mountain’s parking lot. His family had reported him missing just a day earlier, according to the GBI. Bui’s obituary describes him as someone with a “bright smile, adventurous spirit, and generous heart.” He loved skating and videography. His funeral was held over the weekend. The GBI says no foul play is suspected in either case, though Bui’s death is still under investigation. The Lewis twins’ deaths were ruled suicides, but their family and the NAACP have strongly disputed that, alleging foul play and even a cover-up. Bui’s family, however, is urging patience. “We’re still processing and waiting for answers,” his sister, wrote on Facebook. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Towns County Sheriff’s Office or the GBI. Tips can also be submitted anonymously online or through the “See Something, Send Something” app. STORY 5: Cirque du Soleil’s 'OVO' coming to Gas South Arena this weekend Lydia Harper’s journey to becoming artistic director for Cirque du Soleil wasn’t exactly slow—more like a whirlwind. “It was fast,” she laughed. “Big learning curve, but hey, I’m an acrobat. Climbing’s kind of my thing.” Now based in London, Harper will be in Duluth with Cirque’s “OVO” from Aug. 7–10 at Gas South Arena. The show, a vibrant, bug-themed spectacle, has dazzled 7 million people worldwide since its 2009 debut. Harper’s path started onstage—Chinese Pole, Double Cloud, Rope—you name it. She joined Cirque in 2015 as an acrobat for “TORUK,” then climbed the ranks: captain, coach, assistant director, and finally, artistic director two years ago. Her job? Everything on stage. Casting, choreography, rehearsals, even approving new elements. “We’ve got 53 artists from all over the world—it’s like running a tiny, chaotic ecosystem,” she said. Performing was her first love, but these days, she’s all about helping others shine. Touring isn’t easy—living out of a suitcase, missing family—but Harper finds magic in the chaos. Catch “OVO” in Duluth for five shows. Details at cirquedusoleil.com/ovo.

At the many events surrounding the Fancy Farm political picnic last weekend, U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell told the audience he was surprised that one of the candidates to replace him would slam him.“Surely this isn't true, but I've heard that one of the candidates running for my office wants to be different,” McConnell said. “Now, I'm wondering how you'd want to be different from the longest-serving Senate leader in American history. I'm wondering how you'd want to be different in supporting President Trump.”Nate Morris answered Sen. McConnell today speaking with Terry Meiners on WHAS.photo: Kentucky Lantern

This Day in Legal History: Switzerland's Federal CharterOn August 1, 1291, the seeds of what would become modern Switzerland were planted with the signing of the Federal Charter, or Bundesbrief, by the cantons of Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden. This wasn't the dramatic formation of a nation-state as we think of it today—it was three rural Alpine communities making a legal pact for mutual defense and cooperation in the face of growing Habsburg pressure. The document itself is barely over 300 words long, written in Latin, and mostly focuses on conflict resolution and how not to stab each other in the back (literally and figuratively). But make no mistake, this was a radical assertion of local legal autonomy during a time when imperial rule was the norm.The Federal Charter stands as an early example of federalism—three small political entities entering into a horizontal, legally binding agreement without ceding total sovereignty to a monarch or emperor. In legal terms, it was more covenant than constitution, but its emphasis on mutual aid, lawful arbitration, and collective security laid the groundwork for Switzerland's famously decentralized structure. The signatories agreed to resist foreign judges and unlawful acts of violence, a precursor to ideas we now enshrine in due process and the rule of law.This wasn't a flashy revolution. There were no declarations of independence or fiery speeches. Just some pragmatic legalese scratched onto parchment that said, in effect, “Let's have each other's backs, settle disputes fairly, and not get bossed around by some distant duke.” Over time, this unassuming agreement evolved into the Swiss model of federalism and neutrality that still defines the nation today. It's not just legal history—it's a reminder that even minimalist governance structures can have maximal staying power.Federal judges who issued rulings against Donald Trump's policies have come forward with disturbing accounts of harassment, threats, and violent intimidation. At a “Speak Up For Justice” event, five judges—including Chief U.S. District Judge John McConnell—described receiving death threats, being targets of “swatting” incidents, and even having pizzas delivered to their homes under the name of a murdered judge's son. McConnell, who blocked a major White House funding freeze earlier this year, disclosed that he received six credible death threats and over 400 hostile voicemails. One threat involved someone searching the dark web for his address, saying they wanted "Smith & Wesson to pay him a visit."Judge John Coughenour, who ruled against Trump's effort to limit birthright citizenship, recounted a terrifying police raid on his home due to a false murder report. The FBI later alerted him to a bomb threat. Despite being appointed by Republican President Reagan, Coughenour criticized political attacks on the judiciary as damaging to democratic institutions. The White House called the threats unacceptable and emphasized the importance of judicial safety. On the same day as the event, the Senate confirmed Trump's nominee Gadyaces Serralta to lead the U.S. Marshals Service, who pledged to prioritize judge protection.By mid-June, 408 threats against 297 judges had been logged in the fiscal year. Judge Esther Salas, whose son was murdered in 2020, praised the speaking judges for breaking their silence in defense of judicial independence.US judges recount death threats, 'swatting' after rulings against Trump | ReutersAccording to exclusive reporting done by Reuters, the U.S. State Department plans to allocate up to $7.85 million to support deportation operations in Costa Rica, marking a significant expansion of American-backed regional immigration enforcement. The funds, redirected from an economic development account, will be transferred to the Department of Homeland Security, which will coordinate with Costa Rican authorities to carry out deportations of migrants—especially those transiting through the country en route to the U.S.This arrangement resembles a 2024 Biden-era agreement with Panama, where the U.S. financed detention and deportation of migrants moving northward. The new Costa Rica program is framed as a capacity-building effort that will fund deportation logistics and training on asylum screening. Still, critics warn it could deny vulnerable populations fair access to asylum protections.The plan follows a Trump administration request earlier in the year for Costa Rica to accept 200 migrants from Africa, Asia, and Europe previously detained in the U.S. Many of them remain in Costa Rica, raising questions about long-term outcomes. Details on when deportations will begin or the final destination countries remain unclear.Officials have also acknowledged that some migrants are now traveling south through Costa Rica, fleeing northward crackdowns and the end of Biden's humanitarian parole options. The agreement does not require a direct connection between the migrant and the country to which they may be deported, a detail likely to fuel ongoing human rights concerns.Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has been visiting countries throughout Latin America to explore similar arrangements, suggesting this may be part of a broader regional deportation strategy under Trump's immigration policy.Exclusive: US plans to fund deportations from Costa Rica, document shows | ReutersThe U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit closely examined whether President Donald Trump overstepped his authority by using emergency powers to impose sweeping tariffs on foreign imports. The legal challenge, brought by 12 Democratic-led states and five small businesses, centers on Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA)—a 1977 law typically used for financial sanctions—to justify tariffs against countries like China, Canada, and Mexico. Judges on the panel, many of whom were appointed by Democratic presidents, expressed skepticism, with one noting the law “doesn't even say tariffs.”This is the first major appellate test of Trump's tariff authority, and it comes just as a deadline approaches for new tariff hikes. Trump has used tariffs aggressively in his second term as both an economic and geopolitical tool, citing trade imbalances and foreign inaction on fentanyl as justifications. The challengers argue that only Congress has the constitutional power to impose tariffs, not the president.While the court has allowed the tariffs to remain in place during the litigation, a final ruling could have major implications. A previous lower court decision had already questioned whether IEEPA allows for tariffs tied to longstanding trade deficits. Meanwhile, tariffs have become a significant revenue source, generating over $100 billion so far this fiscal year—money the administration may need after passing new tax cuts.The case won't affect tariffs enacted under other legal provisions, like those on steel and aluminum. Trump's legal team argues that restricting presidential tariff power would hinder trade negotiations. The president has recently secured agreements with the EU and Japan, and is currently working on deals with Mexico and others to avoid further tariff hikes.US appeals court scrutinizes Trump's use of tariffs as trade deadline looms | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, a composer of some note.This week's closing theme is a bright and confident slice of Mozart at his most charming: the Piano Concerto No. 19 in F major, K. 459, first movement, Allegro. Written in 1784 during a period of remarkable productivity, this concerto is one of the six that Mozart composed that year alone—each one displaying a different facet of his evolving style. No. 19 stands out for its buoyancy and rhythmic vitality; it's elegant without being self-serious, energetic but never frantic.Mozart, still in his late twenties, was performing regularly in Vienna, dazzling audiences with works that showcased both his pianistic skill and his compositional inventiveness. This piece was likely written for one of his own concerts, tailored to suit both his technical flair and his subtle wit. The Allegro opens with a playful orchestral theme, crisp and sunny, which soon gives way to the piano's entrance—graceful, witty, and full of character.There's a conversational quality to the movement: the orchestra tosses out ideas, the piano responds, elaborates, jokes, and dances. But beneath its lightheartedness lies Mozart's usual sophistication: unexpected harmonic turns, rhythmic displacements, and crisp motivic development keep the listener alert. The movement doesn't strive for drama or tragedy—it's pure Mozartian joy, rendered in tight musical logic and unfailing charm.As a closer, it offers an ideal farewell note: upbeat, clean, and full of clarity. You leave the room a little taller, a little lighter, like the music has tidied your thoughts and restored your sense of order. Mozart's No. 19 may not be the flashiest of his concertos, but it radiates something rarer: calm confidence, musical humor, and the sense that everything—at least for a few minutes—is exactly where it should be.Without further ado, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 19 in F major, K. 459, first movement, the Allegro.

This episode took a hard, surprising bend around the corner, careening headlong into one of the most interesting habitat concepts we've ever covered. Most farmers chase yield. Dr. mark McConnell helps them chase increased profits--while improving habitat for waterfowl and other wildlife. We dive deep into how landowners are using the Farm Bill, precision agricultural technology, and hard data to turn marginal acreage into waterfowl habitat without losing a cent. Whether you hunt, farm--or both--is loaded with information for finding dollars and sense in balancing habitat conservation in agricultural landscapes.    Visit the Legendary Brands That Make MOJO's Duck Season Somewhere Podcast Possible: MOJO Outdoors  Alberta Professional Outfitters Society Benelli Shotguns Bow and Arrow Outdoors Ducks Unlimited  Flash Back Decoys GetDucks.com HuntProof Premium Waterfowl App Inukshuk Professional Dog Food  Migra Ammunitions onX Maps  Use code GetDucks25 Sitka Gear Tom Beckbe USHuntList.com   Like what you heard?

Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers break down NBA Game 7. Best bets as always. The podcast episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview hosted by Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers dives into the upcoming NBA Finals Game 7 between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, focusing on Game 6 recap, player and team statistics, Game 7 historical trends, and predictions. Munaf begins by acknowledging the unexpected extension to Game 7, joking that rapper Drake may be responsible after placing a massive bet on the Thunder in Game 6. Mackenzie reflects on his incorrect prediction and credits Indiana's resilience, noting they've consistently defied expectations. In Game 6, the Pacers delivered a balanced team performance. Tyrese Halliburton, playing through injury, contributed 14 points and 5 assists in 23 minutes. Four starters reached double figures, while Obi Toppin scored 20 off the bench. TJ McConnell added 12 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists. The Thunder, in contrast, had a dismal shooting night, hitting only 8 of 30 from three-point range, with starters going 1 for 13. They managed just 91 points, their lowest of the season. Defensively, the Pacers adjusted from full-court pressure in Game 4 to a more strategic, trap-heavy defense in Game 6. Mackenzie compares McConnell's impact to J.J. Barea in 2011, praising Rick Carlisle's coaching and noting that he's achieved more with less than most NBA coaches. Munaf suggests Carlisle's legacy could be cemented with a second improbable championship, citing his 2011 win over Miami's Big Three. Looking at Game 7, the Thunder are favored by 7.5 points with a total of 214.5. Historical trends support a close contest: since 2002, 62% of Game 7s have gone under the total, with average victory margins at just 6.9 points. Of the past ten NBA Finals Game 7s, only one had a margin over 7.5. Munaf notes that OKC's strong home record and MVP-caliber season from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (SGA) bring added pressure, while Indiana is seen as playing with house money. Mackenzie believes the Thunder's legacy burden may weigh heavier on SGA than any player, contrasting Halliburton's low-risk, high-reward scenario. Referee influence, especially the likely assignment of Scott Foster, could shape the game. Foster is known for calling more fouls and previously officiated two Finals Game 7s, including the 2010 Celtics-Lakers game where LA shot 37 free throws. Munaf warns that if Foster is officiating, foul counts may spike. Both hosts back the Pacers +7.5 as their best bet. They emphasize Indiana's ability to stay within striking distance, citing the last four Finals teams that forced Game 7s after trailing 3–2 all won the title. Regarding props, Munaf favors Pascal Siakam's rebound over (7.5), noting consistent double-digit boards and high minutes. SGA and Caruso are tipped to exceed 2.5 combined steals and blocks, given the high-pressure context. Mackenzie leans under on Halliburton's 15.5 point line, which is near season-low, but suggests parlaying Halliburton overs with a Pacers win if expecting an upset. In closing, the hosts predict a tight, gritty Game 7 in line with NBA history. Both expect Indiana to cover and potentially win, citing momentum, strategic flexibility, and psychological freedom versus the high stakes confronting OKC. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Fri.'s No Dunks, the guys discuss the Pacers trouncing the Thunder to deliver a Game 7, Haliburton's strong effort despite the calf injury, SGA's sloppy play, McConnell sparking the team again, Siakam's monster dunk, James Johnson's ejection, and predictions for Sunday night's winner-take-all game. That, plus ugly kids, the Titan submersible, Wendy's chili, and more.

Rick Carlisle's decision to bench T.J. McConnell during crucial moments of the game is a monumental blunder. McConnell was a standout player for the Pacers in Game 5, yet Carlisle kept him off the court. Jason Whitlock will dissect this and other significant errors in American sports. Later, Steve Kim and Jay Skapinac will join the show to discuss the Doc Rivers controversy, Angel Reese's "mebounds" trademark, and Alexi Lalas criticizing U.S. players' lack of national pride.
