Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) are often called molecular chaperones. These crucial proteins spring into action when cells are under threat from environmental stressors, toxins, inflammation, and oxidative stress. Join us as we uncover how heat shock proteins function as the cell’s microscopic repair crew. Discover how this fundamental biological mechanism not only protects our cells from daily stresses but also holds promising clues to treating age-related illnesses like cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Today on The Lab Report: 3:50 Heat shock proteins and cellular health 8:05 Types of cellular stress 9:30 Specific functions of HSPs 11:00 Metaphors are fun 13:05 How were these discovered? 14:00 Different than cold shock proteins 16:00 Clinical associations in disease 19:15 Naturally increasing your HSPs 21:25 Drug development and implications Subscribe, Rate, & Review The Lab Report Thanks for tuning in to this week’s episode of The Lab Report, presented by Genova Diagnostics, with your hosts Michael Chapman and Patti Devers.

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 43 minutesSynopsis: This evening (9/18/25), in our Thursday night Pirkei Avos shiur for women, we took up the first of two mishnayos in our perek about the relationship between Olam ha'Zeh and Olam ha'Ba. At first, we thought the mishnah was obvious. Then, after learning through four meforshim, we found ourselves with eight points that needed to be explained. Despite my coming to shiur with only a few answers, together we managed to come up with explanations for all eight points AND answer all our questions! If you're interested in a refreshing take on this topic, I have a feeling this will hit the spot.-----מקורות:אבות ד:טזרש"ירמב"םרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר המדע, הלכות תשובה ג:א-ב; ח:ב,ז; ט:א; י:ארמב"ם - שמונה פרקים: פרק במאיריספורנו-----The Torah Content for the month of September is sponsored by Meir Areman in loving memory of his grandmother, Esther Chasha bas Meir Gedalya, who recently passed away on the 25th of Av.

On Prophecy Radio episode #141, Karen and Kristen discuss the latest Percy Jackson and the Olympians news that they can find, including some minor casting they've overlooked, and some Rick Riordan Presents books and authors to make note of. We also breakdown The Red Pyramid chapters 35 and 36. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:16:25) Karen gets us caught up on her trip to New Orleans for her writing convention, as well as all the fun activities she found to do around town. Kristen has decidedly less to update on, but she's happy about some downtime in the middle of a busy September. No big official casting notices, but a couple things to keep in mind. The actor credited as Kronos in season 1: Will they show up as Kronos later, too? A camper credited as 'Sarah' is played by Threnody Tsai. Just in case that comes in handy later. Karen reached out on Insta to see if anyone could think of what season 3 characters we might still see cast. Grizzlymike718 reminded us about Apollo, Dr. Thorne, and Atlas. (As well as a few more very minor characters) Afantastyfanatic added in Oceanus and Rachel Elizabeth Dare. Final reminder that you can pick up your copy of A Court of the Dead VERY soon! It Lurks in the Night by Sarah Dass will arrive on January 27, 2026. The paperback for Serwa Boateng's Guide to Saving the World by Roseanne A. Brown comes out on April 7, 2026 We have a host of books being published in the next year from RRP authors via other publishing channels as well. A good variety of adult, fantasy, and even a little horror thrown in.   The Red Pyramid discussion (00:38:05) Let's get started with our The Red Pyramid chapter 35 discussion. First up: the mini-recap. Sadie's ba travels to London where she seems some truly disturbing visions and is confronted by the truth that Carter would probably make a better ruler than her. Rude. Zia wakes Sadie to have a quick heart to heart with the boys away. Sadie puts her foot in her mouth for a second. Zia and Sadie are still at odds over what exactly is going on with Amos. Sadie makes a very specifically worded promise to Zia. Time for favorite scenes and favorite lines. And moving right along, it's time to discuss The Red Pyramid chapter 36. Our little group moves into the peace and calm of the eye of Set's storm. Time to get a little cloudy! How best to sabotage an Egyptian chaos agent from finishing his power pyramid. Why don't you contribute something helpful to the planning, Amos?! Zia is back in magical action (just a little light on the power at the moment) Amos' grand gestures are getting a little unremarkable these days. Karen is a little obsessed with all the red in that throne pyramid. From coffin to foot rest: poor Osiris. Real Amos is looking out, the other Amos is revealing something we all saw coming and didn't in equal measure. Favorite scenes and favorite lines from chapter 36. A quick bit of feedback where we wish a listener a very happy trip to see Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro on tour! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 142, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 37 and 38, as well as get you up to date on more Percy Jackson and Rick Riordan news.

Metaphor Mastery: Unlock the Secret Language of Influence Imagine unlocking a hidden superpower in your everyday conversations—one that turns ordinary words into irresistible forces of persuasion, capable of swaying opinions, closing deals, and inspiring action like never before. Metaphors are powerful tools for shaping minds and hearts. Whether you're a salesperson pitching your next big idea, or a leader motivating your team, this show equips you with the secrets to influence effortlessly.   At the core of metaphor mastery lies the understanding that metaphors bridge the abstract and the concrete, making complex ideas feel tangible and relatable. Think of a metaphor as a mental shortcut: instead of explaining a difficult concept in dry terms, you paint a vivid picture that sticks in the listener's mind.  For example, rather than saying "business is competitive," try "business is a battlefield," instantly evoking strategy, rivals, and victory. Metaphors resonate on an emotional level, drawing from real-world applications like marketing, where brands like Apple position their products as "revolutionary tools" to spark desire. Why Are Metaphors So Influential? 1. Makes Ideas Relatable Metaphors turn vague concepts into clear, everyday images, helping customers understand product value quickly. Example: "Our CRM is like your business's nervous system, linking everything smoothly." 2. Cuts Through Jargon Metaphors simplify tech terms by comparing them to familiar things, speeding up decisions. Example: "Our cloud storage is an endless filing cabinet in the sky—no physical clutter." 3. Boosts Retention Metaphors make pitches stick in minds longer than plain facts, improving recall. Example: Apple's "1,000 songs in your pocket" made the iPod's portability unforgettable. 4. Handles Objections Metaphors reframe issues as positives, reducing pushback without arguing. Example: "Our consulting is like planting an oak tree—a small start for long-term strength." Ready to wield the secret language that has powered history's greatest influencers? "Metaphor Mastery - Unlock the Secret Language of Influence" podcast is your gateway to persuasion power.  Don't let your words fall flat and start mastering metaphors to maximize your influence today!

Where do you look for the meaning of words? Dictionaries, I guess? Word meanings are not to be found in dictionaries; words meanings are found in metaphors. All language is metaphorical, and we don't just speak metaphorically, we live by our metaphors.  In this podcast, David and Nippin compare a handful of metaphors in Banking and Maritime. Through this comparison they realise that words don't just create worlds, but they also create divides between worldviews. Too often, we miss a crucial point in organising - you cannot organise me and I will never become part of your organisation if we don't share the same worldview. Such is the power of metaphors.

Weapons! Children as weapons! Metaphors! Themes! These are all the things that Zach Cregger's new movie Weapons (2025) has! But is it a good movie? Does it live up to the anticipation of its excellent marketing and follow-up to Barbarian (2022)? Lastly, where does it exist amongst the current horror film zeitgeist in 2025? What is the horror movie zeitgeist in 2025? How do we view it as casual fans of the genre? Do I have any more questions to write here? Of course I do....like where do babies come from?

In a recent show, I referred to Emily Hanford as the Alexa App of reading instruction. This was a metaphor, a common literary device in which one makes a comparison without using the words ‘like' or ‘as'. It creates an image. When we say America is a melting pot, we don't literally mean there's a big pot bubbling somewhere. Metaphors create images and communicate things that lists of words cannot. Recently, somebody took great umbrage of my use of metaphor. This was selective umbrage. If you want to take umbrage at something, take umbrage at the money wasted to pay for commercial products and services. Take umbrage at over-crowed classrooms and poor teaching conditions. Take umbrage at low teacher pay and lack of legitimate professional development opportunities. Take umbrage at tax cuts that make tuition costs rise. Take umbrage when the public cannot afford to go to our public colleges and universities. Take umbrage at the lack of health care, food insecurity, and mass shootings.

The Theological Metaphors of Marx (Duke UP, 2024) by Enrique Dussel – A Conversation with Camilo Pérez-Bustillo and Eduardo Mendieta In The Theological Metaphors of Marx, Enrique Dussel provides a groundbreaking combination of Marxology, theology, and ethical theory. Dussel shows that Marx unveils the theology of capitalism in his critique of commodity fetishization. Capitalism constitutes an idolatry of the commodity that undergirds the capitalist expropriation of labor. Dussel examines Marx's early writings on religion and fetishism and proceeds through what Dussel refers to as the four major drafts of Capital, ultimately situating Marx's philosophical, economic, ethical, and historical insights in relation to the theological problems of his time. Dussel notes a shift in Marx's underlying theological schema from a political critique of the state to an economic critique of the commodity fetish as the Devil, or anti-God, of modernity. Marx's thought, impact, and influence cannot be fully understood without Dussel's historic reinterpretation of the theological origins and implications of Marx's critiques of political economy and politics.

Series: Parables & Metaphors in Luke — Preacher: Ben Alesse

Here's the panel discussion of Socratic Dialogue on the Future of AI and Immersive Technology with Alvin Wang Graylin, Kent Bye, Louis Rosenberg, Leslie Shannon that was recorded on the main stage of Augmented World Expo on Thursday, June 12, 2025 at Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, CA. See more context in the rough transcript below, and you can watch the original video here. Here's some other relevant episodes that I've done recently in preparation for this debate on AI: #1563: Deconstructing AI Hype with “The AI Con” Authors Emily M.

Music: Fatality

Here's my interview with Keiichi Matsuda, Designer and Director of Liquid City, that was conducted on Thursday, June 12, 2025 at Augmented World Expo in Long Beach, CA. In the introduction, I read through Matsuda's essay titled "Gods" (also uploaded here) where he explores the idea that AI should be more like pets and polytheistic and animistic familiars rather than the more monotheistic approach where there's one true AI God represented by one of Big Tech's omniscient and all-powerful AI systems. This approach has lead Matsuda to developing a system of what he calls "parabrains" that is an interface for AI agents that goes beyond the narrative scripting capabilities that he was exploring in inworld.ai with his project MeetWol that I covered previously at AWE 2023. A lot of Matsuda's ideas were also explored in the speculative fiction short film called Agents that was produced in collaboration with what was a the time Niantic Labs and is now Niantic Spatial (check out my interview with Niantic Spatial at AWE 2025 for more on how they're using Matsuda's Parabrains system).

You've heard me talk about educational content quite a bit and how it shouldn't be 100% of the content you put out there. But it does play an important role in your messaging when you do need to teach, like in webinars or a percentage of your social media content. For my students, many get frustrated because the audience doesn't understand the value of what's being taught, or they get a great response to the quality of the content… but no buyers. Is it the same for you? In this episode of the podcast, I'm revealing how to teach in your content so your followers and audience will take action. Listen in and discover how to become a better teacher, the art of teaching with story and metaphor, ways to come up with powerful stories, tons of examples for you to hear and consider for your business, and secrets to next level presentations and more buyers. And, of course, I'll share what's going on in your audience's mind so you know exactly where they are and how to help them get to the next stage, whether it's joining a challenge or buying your course.
