Modern biology often posits Darwinian evolution and natural selection as a settled explanation for the vast complexity of the natural world. Yet, looking closely at the nanoscale machinery inside the cell reveals molecular systems that seem to defy a gradual, evolutionary unfolding, says Michael Behe, professor of biochemistry at Lehigh University and author of “Darwin's Black Box,” “The Edge of Evolution,” and “Darwin Devolves.”“I was startled to see that a foundation concept of my worldview had no support; that it was all built on social considerations,” Behe says.Importantly, Behe points out that he is not rejecting Darwinian evolution in its entirety. Minor evolutionary adaptations are well-established, he says. But can Darwin's theory of evolution adequately explain the origin of complex biological mechanisms that require many interlocking components to function at all?Also, what do recent discoveries in molecular genetics reveal about the boundaries of natural evolution? And why is the scientific consensus on Darwin's theory far less unanimous than it appears?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Mens Room Question: What non-issue annoyed the hell out of you?

At the time of Washington Irving's death, he was the most famous and widely praised American writer of his or any other era. But his reputation soon dwindled, and today he's known primarily as the author of just two stories ("The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and "Rip Van Winkle"), while his groundbreaking works of history, biography, and essays are barely known. In this episode, Jacke talks to essayist Phillip Lopate about his book A Washington Irving Sketch Book: Reflections on an American Writer, in which Lopate pays tribute to the life and works of a nineteenth-century kindred spirit. Then Mike Palindrome turns the tables on Jacke, interviewing him about this summer's History of Literature Podcast Tour, in which Jacke, Emma, and a hearty band of guests journeyed together through literary England.

Gaius and Germanicus: The hosts close on the president's health and psyche, referencing the new book by senior New York Times correspondent Maggie Haberman and her colleague, which finds the eighty-year-old relatively healthy—minor hand bruising, blood-thinning aspirin—and fundamentally the same man, simply older, slower, and less articulate, aging traits Gaius admits sharing at seventy-eight. With no physical excuse, Germanicus argues the issues are "spiritual": the president has internalized his life as a literal "hero's journey," an Odysseus figure whose survival of the Butlerassassination attempt he embraces as personal "apotheosis"—a transcendental kingship Germanicus compares to Louis XIV and Alexander the Great. The public response is not anger but exhaustion at the predictable "lose, lose, lose"; citizens simply "turn the channel off." The decline into triteness is symbolized by the "Scrooge McDuck" gold obsession covering the Oval Office and the disputed five-story gold-gilded ballroom. The hosts find hope in Chief Justice John Roberts' ruling permitting the underground security hospital while blocking the gilded ballroom itself, referring it to the full court—the metaphor, Germanicus concludes, for how institutions will quietly contain the president's wildest excesses and let a gasping nation safely reach 2028.

You're probably familiar with this story from the beginning of Jesus' ministry: Luke 4:16-2016 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. 17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written,18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,     because he has anointed me     to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives     and recovering of sight to the blind,     to set at liberty those who are oppressed,19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”And then it says this20 And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. Very familiar story for a lot of us who have read the gospels. Made a lot of people unhappy, but it was a very positive message: the first time Jesus came, as you know, His purpose was to set people free. Free from the devil, free from their sicknesses, free from their sin.But did you know he didn't finish His sentence? He pulled open the book of Isaiah, started reading at chapter 61, and He stopped at a comma. Let's go look at the original words. Isaiah 61, starting at verse 1The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,     because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor;     he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives,     and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;2 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor,And that's where Jesus stopped reading, but here's what came next in the original passage:    and the day of vengeance of our GodThat was the part He left out. And why? Because that wasn't His mission in His first coming. The Day of Vengeance of Our God would be reserved for His Second Coming. And that's what I want to talk about today on the God and His Prophets podcast.Watch these episodes at my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LukeTaylorPodcastsNeed to get in touch with me?

You likely see this controversial tool as a novelty, but it is actually a legitimate medical workout for your health.Without regular blood flow and exercise, sensitive tissue can weaken, lose elasticity, and even shrink over time. In this episode, you will discover the clinical science behind the penis pump and why it serves as essential gym equipment for erectile function. You will also learn how proper usage can stimulate blood flow, prevent scar tissue, and improve size.Hit play now to uncover the exact protocols you need to optimize your performance and protect your long-term vitality.--------------Key TakeawaysAn FDA-approved penis pump functions as gym equipment to train and strengthen erectile tissue.Inactivity and a lack of regular blood flow cause penile muscle shrinkage and stiff scar tissue.Daily pumping protocols boost nitric oxide, improve nerve conduction, and treat erectile dysfunction.Consistent usage can safely add up to an inch in both length and girth over time.Dedicated schedules vary from twice daily for ED rehabilitation to three times weekly for general maintenance.Generous lubrication on both the shaft and the cylinder base ensures an airtight, safe seal.Pressing the cylinder firmly against the pubic bone creates proper vacuum suction.Pulling the scrotum downward prevents the testicles from getting drawn into the cylinder during use.A slow pumping pace should never exceed 10 mmHg on the pressure gauge.Minor initial discomfort is normal and improves quickly with consistent practice.--------------Resources mentioned:Modern Man CribMediterranean DietGood Morning Wood SmoothieRenew with Dr. Anne--------------Curious about how you can boost your bedroom game and build lasting confidence?

Send Steve a Text MessageMajor pentatonic and minor pentatonic get treated like separate skills, but that mindset slows down your playing. We break the whole thing down to one clean visual: a single pentatonic shape you can move anywhere on the neck, plus a simple way to find whether you are hearing the major sound or the minor sound.We start with a clear A minor pentatonic example, naming the five-note set and locking in the consistent fingering that makes the box so useful for guitar solos, blues phrasing, and rock licks. Then we flip the switch to major pentatonic without learning anything new: we slide the exact same shape down three frets and re-orient around the new root note inside the pattern. Same notes under your fingers, different tonal center, different vibe.Next we connect the dots with relative major and minor. A minor pentatonic equals C major pentatonic, F sharp minor equals A major, B minor equals D major, and the pattern continues across the fretboard. Once you can visualize that relationship and you know your sixth-string notes, you can choose the sound you want on purpose and land your phrases on the right root.If this helps, subscribe, share the episode with a guitar-playing friend, and leave a quick review so more players can find it. What key do you want to see mapped out next?Thanks for being here!! I will continue to do my best to bring you the best, most informative guitar discussions to help you along your guitar journey!

Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Garlick, Dr. Larson, Dr. Grabowski, and Mr. Thomas Lackey discuss the short, strange, and forgotten dialogue of HIppias Minor or "On the Lie."8 Questions on Hippias Minor Study GuideCheck Ascend out on X, YouTube, Facebook, and More!Plato's Hippias Minor is a short, strange dialogue with a traditional subtitle that cuts straight to the point: “On the Lie.” After the boastful sophist Hippias finishes a public speech ranking Achilles the best and Odysseus the most polytropos—the man of twists and turns—Socrates is drawn into a conversation that begins with Homer and ends in one of the deepest aporias of the early dialogues. What starts as a dispute over who is the better man, the straightforward Achilles or the wily Odysseus, quickly becomes a rigorous examination of voluntary versus involuntary wrongdoing, the nature of knowledge and power, and the unsettling claim that the man who does injustice on purpose is better than the one who does it by accident.Deacon and the guests work through the dialogue's sharp arguments and its surprising relevance. The conversation exposes the limits of treating virtue as mere knowledge plus power, raises the question of whether a just person might ever speak falsely for a good end, and serves as a genuine appetizer for the noble lie in the Republic. Come listen—and discover why even Socrates, at the end, cannot agree with himself.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Hippias Minor and its Context04:55 Setting the Scene: Hippias' Speech and Socrates' Role09:22 Hippias' Boasts and Socrates' Irony17:55 The Homeric Heroes: Achilles and Odysseus25:04 Knowledge, Power, and the Art of Lying36:15 The Distinction Between Capacity and Action44:53 The Nature of Truth and Falsehood in Socratic Dialogue46:43 Conclusion: What Socrates Reveals About Knowledge and Lies02:39 Socrates' questioning of Hippias and the nature of virtue04:55 The analogy of athletic competitions and the concept of justice07:57 Socrates' discussion on voluntary and involuntary actions12:05 The role of knowledge and capacity in moral actions15:34 Hippias' understanding of justice and its relation to power19:50 The concept of noble lies and pedagogical deception25:04 The absence of forms and gods in the dialogue30:14 The deeper meaning of Socratic ignorance and self-awareness34:54 The significance of the question: Is justice knowledge or power?39:51 Conclusion: What we learn about virtue, knowledge, and truthKeywordsPlato's Hippias Minor, Lesser Hippias, On the Lie, Hippias of Elis, Achilles and Odysseus, polytropos, voluntary and involuntary wrongdoing, voluntary liar, Socratic dialogue, aporetic dialogue, forgotten Platonic dialogues, noble lie, Republic, virtue is knowledge, knowledge and power, sophist, polymath, Eudicus, Embassy scene Iliad, teleology, Forms, Socratic irony, beneficial falsehood, Dr. Frank Grabowski, Dr. Brett Larson, Thomas Lackey, Ascend the Great Books Podcast, political philosophy, Allan Bloom, Roots of Political Philosophy.Next week we discuss Plato's Ion!

It's back-to-school szn, and while some kids are stressing over earlier wake-ups, this year's incoming medical students have a bigger question to answer: how do you train for a career that could still have you practicing medicine in the 2070s, when the tools of medicine are changing so rapidly?For our back-to-school episode, we sat down with Stanford University School of Medicine Dean Dr. Lloyd Minor to talk about how AI is already reshaping what future doctors learn and how they're taught, as well as what's still not working in American healthcare.We cover:What medical students are actually being taught about AI, and where Stanford still draws the lineWhy Stanford's tumor boards no longer start with humansThe surprising way Dr. Minor thinks AI could level the playing field in healthcare accessWhy the same AI tools helping patients feel more informed are also making them more anxiousThe counterintuitive reason new medical technology gets more expensive before it gets cheaperWhat's still standing in the way of a vision for precision medicine that's been decades in the makingAbout our guest:Lloyd B. Minor, MD, is a scientist, surgeon, and academic leader. He is the Carl and Elizabeth Naumann Dean of the Stanford University School of Medicine and Vice President for Medical Affairs at Stanford University. Dr. Minor also is a professor of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery and a professor of Bioengineering and of Neurobiology, by courtesy, at Stanford University.As dean, Dr. Minor has had an integral role in setting strategy for the clinical enterprise of Stanford Medicine, an academic medical center that includes the Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford Health Care, and Stanford Medicine Children's Health. With his leadership, Stanford Medicine leads the biomedical revolution in Precision Health. His book, “Discovering Precision Health,” describes this shift to more preventive, personalized health care and highlights how biomedical advances are dramatically improving our ability to treat and cure complex diseases. In 2021, Dr. Minor articulated and began realizing a bold vision to transform the future of life sciences at Stanford University and beyond – a multi-decade journey enabled by Precision Health.In August 2023, Dr. Minor was appointed Vice President for Medical Affairs to lead all matters related to health and medicine at Stanford University.Before Stanford, Dr. Minor was provost and senior vice president for academic affairs of Johns Hopkins University. Prior to this appointment in 2009, Dr. Minor served as the Andelot Professor and director (chair) of the Department of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery in the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and otolaryngologist-in-chief of The Johns Hopkins Hospital.With more than 160 published articles and chapters, Dr. Minor is an expert in balance and inner ear disorders perhaps best known for discovering superior canal dehiscence syndrome, a debilitating disorder characterized by sound- or pressure-induced dizziness. He subsequently developed a surgical procedure that corrects the problem and alleviates symptoms.In 2012, Dr. Minor was elected to the National Academy of Medicine.—

Last week, we covered what needs to happen before Jesus returns.The Jewish people must look on Him whom they pierced and mourn. Once you understand that, you understand this demonic hatred of the Jewish people. Now you understand the spirit behind antisemitism. Now you understand why there was a holocaust. But I have some really unpleasant news to share today from Bible prophecy: Zechariah 13 tells us there will be another. Another holocaust. And … it will be twice as bad as the first one. We will learn about that today on the God and His Prophets podcast.Watch these episodes at my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LukeTaylorPodcastsNeed to get in touch with me?

Mark A. Beck earned a BA in Business and Japanese Language from Pacific University and an MBA from Harvard Business School. Over his three-decade corporate career, he served in executive leadership at Corning Incorporated, as Executive Vice President at Danaher Corporation, and as President and CEO of JELD-WEN, guiding the company through its IPO. Today, Mark owns three manufacturing companies, co-chairs KDC/ONE, and serves as board chair for Accendra Health (formerly Owens & Minor) and IDEX Corporation. Passionate about servant leadership, he serves as faculty for the Adler Fellowship Program and has taught strategic leadership of innovation as a Visiting Professor of Practice at Cornell University. Adrienne and Mark have been married for 38 years. They reside in Matthews, North Carolina, and are the parents of five children and two grandchildren. Together, they navigated unique life blessings, including caring for their youngest son, Wesley, who was born with a rare health condition and expected to live only a few months. Wesley lived for 20 years through many miracles and Adrienne's devoted caregiving. Following his passing, Adrienne resumed her educational goals and is on track to earn her bachelor's degree later this year. Deeply committed to faith, family, and community, both Mark and Adrienne have spent years serving in Church leadership—Mark previously served as a stake president, and Adrienne as a stake Young Women president and two-time ward Primary president. Today, the couple serve side-by-side as branch president and YSA advisor for the Hemby Young Single Adult Branch in the greater Charlotte area. Beyond hosting regular home dinners and monthly “Friday Night Hangouts,” they pioneered a stake-wide mentorship program that connects young adults with community members to provide life guidance, career coaching, trade school support, and spiritual growth for the rising generation.

What does it mean to fear the Lord? Once we understand this, how do we cultivate fear of the Lord in our hearts so we live in fear of the Lord? Why is this so important? My friend, Alexandra Jensen, helps us comb through these questions as she shares her reflection of Psalm 128 with us. She points out many of the beautiful promises of God which are given to us as we live surrendered and in fear of the Lord. Alexandra and her family attend Battlecreek Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

We had the privilege of learning from Pastor Austin from Beloved Church this Sunday! He led us through the book of Malachi, reminding us of God's faithful love and His invitation to return to Him with our whole hearts. We were challenged to consider what we're giving to God and whether we're offering Him our best or simply what's left over. Ultimately, Malachi points us to Jesus, who meets us in our unfaithfulness and brings restoration through His grace.-----------Join us for service online or in-person in Grand Rapids every Sunday at 9AM & 10:45AM.Decided to follow Jesus?

The first verse of the Bible, we all know it: (Genesis 1:1)In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. It's 10 words in the English, 7 words in the Hebrew. BUT- did you know that there's an extra word in the Hebrew version of that verse which is not present in any English translation of Genesis 1:1? And that's because it's not a word.It says “in the beginning God”And then there's a word that's not really a word“Created the heavens and the earth”And this word which is not a word only shows up in two chapters of the Bible. Genesis chapter 1 and Zechariah chapter 12.So…what is the word that's not a word? You'll find out today on the God and His Prophets podcast.Watch these episodes at my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LukeTaylorPodcastsNeed to get in touch with me?

Host Scott Rettberg speaks with Aarhus University Associate Professor Christian Ulrik Andersen about autonomous AI imaging and his co-authored book, Objects of Interest and Necessity. They examine how fringe user communities, micro-models, and platforms like Civitai, AI Horde, and Hugging Face challenge big-tech dominance in generative AI. The conversation also delves into "minor tech" strategies, alternative infrastructures, and the role of digital art in rethinking our political and cultural relationship to technology.References Andersen, C.

In this episode of CoROM Conversations, Aebhric O'Kelly is joined by Dr Bill Vasios to discuss one of the most overlooked aspects of remote and austere medicine: the intelligent use of over-the-counter (OTC) medications in austere primary care.Rather than focusing on advanced equipment and prescription drugs, this discussion explores how a carefully selected collection of inexpensive, widely available medications can effectively manage many of the illnesses and injuries encountered in remote, expeditionary, humanitarian and disaster settings.The conversation emphasises clinical reasoning, careful assessment, conservative prescribing, and making the most of simple interventions before escalating treatment.Chapters00:00 – Introduction: Why OTC medicines matter in austere medicine02:22 – Traveller's diarrhoeaAssessmentOral rehydrationLoperamide: when to use it (and when not to)06:54 – Upper respiratory infectionsSymptom managementSalt-water garglesSaline spraysWhen antibiotics are unnecessary13:34 – Musculoskeletal injuriesPain packsDiclofenacPatient-guided pain managementRICE and the ice debate20:45 – Allergic rashes and contact dermatitisHydrocortisoneAntihistaminesOatmealRecognising anaphylaxis23:02 – Insect bites and stingsLocal treatmentCold therapyWhen to escalate care25:21 – DehydrationOral rehydrationIV versus oral fluidsHydration strategies in the field29:59 – Heat illnessCooling methodsField managementPreventing heat injury32:15 – Acid reflux in austere environmentsAntacidsGingerPractical management tips32:15 – Minor wound careIrrigationSoap versus antisepticsDakin's solutionAlcohol and iodinePractical wound cleaning36:45 – Building the ideal austere OTC medical kitEssential medicationsDressingsTapeWater purificationSplintsEpiPensMulti-use equipment41:20 – Final discussion, audience questions and wrap-upThe discussion concludes by assembling a practical remote medicine kit, including:Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS)ParacetamolIbuprofenLoperamideAntacidsOral antihistaminesHydrocortisone creamAntifungal creamTopical diclofenacZinc oxide tapeCohesive bandage (Coban/Vet Wrap)SalineSoapCling filmDressingsGauzeSunscreenWater purification equipmentSAM splintsEpiPenCompact medication organiser (FOLCA)Key Take-Home MessagesGood assessment should always precede medication.Oral hydration remains the cornerstone of treating dehydration.Many common conditions can be managed safely with inexpensive OTC medications.Every item carried should ideally have multiple uses.Patient education and involvement improve outcomes.Simple treatments, applied correctly, are often more effective than complicated ones.Featured SpeakersAebhric O'Kelly: Paramedic, educator and Rector of the College of Remote and Offshore Medicine.Dr Bill Vasios: Physician Associate, educator and specialist in austere and remote healthcare.Resources MentionedWorld Health Organization Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS)Wilderness Medical Society clinical practice guidelinesJoint Trauma System Clinical Practice Guidelines (JTS CPGs)Bristol Stool ChartOttawa Ankle RulesListen, Learn, DeployWhether you're preparing for an expedition, humanitarian mission, offshore deployment or remote clinic, this episode provides practical, evidence-informed advice on building a lightweight, effective medical kit capable of managing the conditions you are most likely to encounter.

Embedded earrings are a common pediatric emergency department presentation that can usually be managed quickly and safely without procedural sedation. This episode reviews why earrings become embedded, how to distinguish uncomplicated earlobe cases from higher-risk cartilage piercings, step-by-step removal techniques, pain control strategies, and appropriate wound care, antibiotics, and follow-up. Learning Objectives Recognize the evaluation and management of embedded earlobe earrings, including indications for local anesthesia, incision, and removal techniques. Differentiate uncomplicated earlobe piercings from cartilage piercings that require additional concern for perichondritis, Pseudomonas infection, and possible ENT consultation. Apply evidence-based post-procedure care, including appropriate wound management, antibiotic selection, and counseling to help prevent future embedded earrings. References Timm N, Iyer S.

As always, I'm your host, Brad Sobolewski. Today, we're continuing our new series on minor procedures. These are the procedures we perform all the time in pediatric emergency departments. They're not the subject of giant multicenter trials or big keynote lectures, but they are the procedures that families remember. If you make them quick, comfortable, and maybe even a little less scary, families and patients will remember that. And if the procedure turns into a wrestling match with three people trying to hold down a screaming child while you're searching for an earring backing, they're gonna remember that too. Today's topic is embedded earrings. A kid walks into the emergency department holding one ear. The earlobe is swollen and red, and the parent says, “I can't find their earring.” It didn't disappear. The ear basically swallowed it, and the parents almost always feel bad. They think they did something wrong or they waited too long. Honestly, this happens all the time. The first one can be a little intimidating because the hardware isn't always where you expect it to be, but after you've removed a few of these, you'll realize they're actually pretty straightforward. Most can be managed right in the emergency department or a well-resourced urgent care. One of the best studies on the topic actually came from Cincinnati Children's. Tim and Iyer reviewed over 100 children who presented to our emergency department with embedded earrings over about a four-and-a-half-year period. The median age was eight years, and about 60% of the children were younger than 10. That fits with most of our clinical experience. Younger children are more likely to sleep on new piercings, play with their earrings, forget the aftercare instructions, or simply not notice that the backing has become too tight. Nearly 90% of embedded earrings involve the earlobe rather than the cartilage, and in about two-thirds of patients, it wasn't the decorative front of the earring that got stuck, it was the posterior backing or clasp. That's helpful because I, um, almost always start looking on the back of the ear, ‘cause usually they've taken off the front. About one-third of children had evidence of a localized infection when they presented. Usually, that meant tenderness, erythema, swelling, and maybe a little purulent drainage or crusting around the piercing. Doesn't necessarily mean they need oral or systemic antibiotics, but it does mean they shouldn't wait another week hoping the earring somehow works itself out. So why does this happen? It's really a pressure injury. The backing gets tightened against the earlobe, either because it was applied too snugly when the ears were pierced or because the ear swells afterward and suddenly there's no room for the tissue to expand. That constant pressure decreases blood flow, produces local inflammation, and eventually the skin begins to grow around the earring hardware. Kids speed the whole process along by twisting the earrings, playing with them, sleeping on them, bumping them during play, and not cleaning the piercing consistently while it's healing. One thing that probably contributes as well is the spring-loaded ear piercing gun. These devices place the earring and immediately snap on the backing, and sometimes that backing ends up much tighter than it should be. If swelling develops over the next day or so, the backing can quickly become buried beneath the skin. It's one of the reasons I generally recommend families avoid piercing guns and instead use a method that leaves just a little room for post-procedure swelling. When these patients show up in the emergency department, they almost always complain of pain, swelling, redness, and tenderness around the piercing site. Sometimes there's drainage. Sometimes the parent says they can't unscrew the backing anymore. Sometimes they tell you they can feel the earring in the earlobe, but you can't actually see it. Now, I'll get to the procedure technique in just a minute. But before I start talking about that, I do wanna separate earlobe piercings from cartilage piercing, ‘cause they're really different problems. Once cartilage is involved, the stakes go up considerably. Cartilage has relatively poor blood supply, making it much more susceptible to perichondritis, chondritis, cartilage necrosis, and permanent cosmetic deformity. The bacteria may be different as well. We'll come back to that later. For now, though, let's stay with the earlobe because, frankly, that's where almost all of these procedures occur. All right. Before you start any procedure, you wanna have everything ready. So I'll have local anesthetic, so lidocaine or lidocaine with epi. Epi is totally fine in the earlobe. At least two mosquito hemostats, stuff to grab the earring, an 11 blade, gauze, saline, and a good light source. I think if there's any chance I'll need to make a small incision, I'll prep the ear before I do anything with, uh, betadine or chlorhexidine. Once the ear starts bleeding a little or the child starts moving around, everything gets just a little harder to see and grab. Absolutely bring your child life specialist if you've got them and someone to hold, like a medic or a PCA. One of the interesting things about the Cincinnati study is that none of the 100 children required procedural sedation. None. And honestly, that fits with my experience. The overwhelming majority of these can be managed with local anesthesia alone. For the earlobe, I usually perform a small field block using one percent lidocaine with epinephrine, using a twenty-seven or thirty-gauge needle. Epi is perfectly safe in the earlobe and gives you a little hemostasis while you're working. One thing I probably do differently from some people is I actually wait for the anesthetic to work a little longer. I don't just block and immediately start. I'll wait at least five minutes. Honestly, it's usually closer to seven to ten minutes. During that time, I'm talking with the family, keeping child life involved, making sure all my equipment is ready, and just letting everybody settle down a bit. Those extra few minutes make the whole procedure a lot easier. And again, this is pediatrics, so never underestimate distraction. You've got videos, music, you know, stuffed animal, a toy. Parents should be there holding the child's hand. You gotta coach the parents as well. And sometimes that's really all you need, a good block and some distraction. Of course, some kids do need more. For an anxious child, you can use intranasal midazolam or oral midazolam. If your department has nitrous oxide, this is a great procedure for it because it's usually pretty quick. You're often treating anxiety more than pain. I have used ketamine a handful of times, and not because something went wrong, but just because you have an extremely anxious child, and you're not gonna accomplish the procedure safely any other way. First, figure out what you can see and what you can feel. Sometimes both the decorative front and backing are still visible, but the ear is simply too swollen to separate them normally. Those are the easy ones. I'd grab each side with a mosquito hemostat, disengage the backing from the post, and remove the earring. More commonly, the backing is buried beneath the skin. The decorative front may still be attached, or the parents may have already removed it and left the backing sitting in the earlobe. I'll gently compress the earlobe from the front while looking at the back. That pressure tents the skin enough to expose a few millimeters of metal through the original piercing hole, and that may be all that I need to grab the backing and remove it. If you still can't see it, keep palpating. Usually, I can feel the hardware through the swollen tissue. Once you localize it, I'll make a tiny incision on the back of the earlobe directly over it. And when I say tiny, I mean tiny, like a couple millimeters, just enough to expose the metal. But don't be afraid of making that incision. It's honestly usually the difference between wrestling with the earring for ten minutes and having it out within sixty seconds. From there, the rest is pretty straightforward. Whether the front is buried, the backing is buried, or neither side is visible, I gently spread the tissue with a mosquito hemostat until the hardware comes into view. Notice that I said spread, not dissect. You're not hunting for the earring. You're simply opening the tissue until you see the hardware, enabling yourself to grab it. Once you can see metal, you're almost done. Hold one side steady and separate the backing from the post. Don't just grab one piece and pull because the whole earring will usually rotate within the earlobe instead of coming apart. I also keep gauze or a surgical towel underneath the ear while I'm working. The little backings seem to launch themselves across the room every single time you let go, and I'd rather catch one than spend five minutes looking under the stretcher. Occasionally, you'll inherit a child who's already had one or two unsuccessful attempts. Maybe the parents tried at home, maybe the pediatrician tried, maybe another emergency department tried. Every failed attempt makes the next one more difficult. If you're not making progress, ask yourself, “Am I pulling in the right direction? Do I actually know where the backing is, or am I just fishing for it? Would a tiny posterior incision solve this? Do I need another pair of hands or somebody more experienced?” Most of the time, changing your approach works better than just yanking harder. Once the earring's out, I always look at both pieces. Is the backing intact? Is the decorative front intact? Is the post complete? If something doesn't look right, especially when you compare it, hopefully, to the other earring that they brought or at least a picture of it, I'll go back and explore the wound. The last thing you want to do is leave a small piece of metal behind. Once I know everything is out, I put the earring and the backing into a specimen cup and hand it back to the family. They almost always appreciate getting the jewelry back, especially if it has sentimental value. Then I'll irrigate the wound with about one hundred to two hundred milliliters of saline. I'm not trying to pressure irrigate it like a contaminated laceration. I just want to wash away dry drainage, debris, and any small blood clots around the piercing tract. After that, I make sure the bleeding is stopped and that the earlobe still has good color and perfusion before the child leaves. One other question that comes up pretty often, should you close the incision? Most of the time, I don't. These are really small incisions, usually only a millimeter or two, and it's okay to allow them to heal by secondary intention. If there's any contamination or early infection, I don't want to trap that underneath a closed wound. Every once in a while, though, I'll have to make a larger incision, maybe because the backing was deeply embedded or it's larger or the tissue was particularly swollen. If that incision is more than two or three millimeters, I'll have a conversation with the family about the trade-off between cosmesis and infection risk. In some of those cases, I'll loosely approximate the incision with one or two absorbable sutures, something like 5-0 fast-absorbing gut. If I do that, I'll only close the incision I created. I still leave the original piercing tract open because I want any residual pus to have somewhere to go. That's also one of the advantages of making the incision on the back of the earlobe. If you decide to leave it open or even if you only loosely close part of it, any resulting scar is usually much less noticeable than it would be on the front. Whether I suture or not, I make sure we've got good hemostasis and that the earlobe still has good color and perfusion, and then I'll put some antibiotic ointment and a bandage on it and call it a day. Honestly, if there's no cellulitis, no abscess, and the child is otherwise healthy, I generally don't prescribe oral antibiotics. Topical antibiotic ointment and routine wound care are usually enough. Redness by itself does not equal infection. These ears are inflamed and swollen simply because the earring has been buried in the tissue. If there's expanding cellulitis, significant purulent drainage, an associated abscess, fever, or if the child is immunocompromised or has something like diabetes, then I'll start some oral antibiotics. My first choice is usually cephalexin because these are uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections caused by methicillin-sensitive staph or streptococci that cause common skin infections. If the kid has a history of MRSA, there's a high local prevalence of community-associated MRSA, the family's had MRSA, or the infection is frankly purulent, then I'll switch to clindamycin or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, depending on local resistance patterns. Let's come back to cartilage one more time. There, you're primarily worried about perichondritis, where Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the major pathogen. These patients usually warrant ENT involvement, and antibiotic selection changes substantially, often requiring antipseudomonal coverage. That's a separate entity from the routine embedded earlobe earring. Families will also ask, “Can we just put it back in?” Eh, not so fast, right? That piercing tract isn't really a piercing anymore. It's a wound. Let it heal completely. If they decide to pierce it again, I'd recommend choosing a slightly different location once everything is healed. You should also talk to families about how to keep this from happening again. Most of the time, this isn't because the family did something wrong. Sometimes it just happened. But there are a few things that probably would help. Avoid spring-loaded piercing guns if possible. Don't clamp the backing tightly against the earlobe. Leave just a little room for swelling. Keep new piercings clean while they're healing. And if they notice the backing start disappearing beneath the skin, don't wait several days hoping the swelling will go down and it'll just work itself out. These are much easier to remove when they're only partially embedded than when the skin has completely grown over the hardware. All right, a few take-home points. First, figure out which part of the earring is actually embedded before you start yanking on anything. Give your local anesthetic, lido with epi, time to work. I usually wait at least five minutes, but more often seven to ten. And most uncomplicated earlobe piercings don't need oral antibiotics after removal. And again, this was really an episode about earlobe embedded earrings. If you're dealing with cartilaginous piercings that get stuck or infected, think Pseudomonas, think perichondritis, and early ENT involvement. Honestly, I really enjoy this procedure. It's quick, it's satisfying, and families are incredibly appreciative when you're done. The ear looked terrible when they walked in, they thought their child might need surgery, and then 15 minutes later, they're walking out with a Band-Aid, their earring in a specimen cup, and the popsicle color of their choice. These are the fun procedures. So I hope you enjoyed this installment in our minor procedures series. I've already got several more procedures on my list, and I'll be working through them over time. If there's one that you'd like me to cover, let me know. As the kids would say, like, rate, and review. If you leave a review on your favorite podcast platform, it really does help other clinicians discover the show, which I appreciate because it helps teach more people good stuff.

The pectoralis minor is weird in all the best ways. It is a minor player in the shoulder world in much the same way a minor chord can change the entire feel of a song. Give Radiohead's "Creep" a listen, then queue up this episode, sit back, and discover why weird—in both music and anatomy—is so beautiful.

And I am not your typical massage therapist. After 20 years of experience and thousands of clients, I have learned that massage therapy is SO MUCH more than a relaxing experience at a spa. I see soft tissue as more than merely a physical element but a deeply complex, neurologically driven part of who you are. I use this knowledge to work WITH you—not ON you—to create change that works. This is the basis of my approach. As a massage therapist, I have worked in almost every capacity, including massage clinics, physical therapy clinics, chiropractor offices, spas, private practice, and teaching. I have learned incredible techniques and strategies from each of my experiences. In my 20 years as a massage therapist, I have never stopped growing. I currently have a private practice based out of Long Beach, California, where I also teach continuing education classes and occasionally work on my kids.

The Bible is not just a book about things that happened a long time ago. It's a book about things that still happen today. Human nature. Spiritual realities.

The Bible is a book about things that always happen.And prophecy is like that as well. Prophecy is not just about events that are going to happen someday in the future. Prophecy is about things that happen now, because the Bible is a book about things that always happen. You'll find out what that means today on the God and His Prophets podcast.Watch these episodes at my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LukeTaylorPodcastsNeed to get in touch with me?

Most people treat life insurance like the "broccoli of estate planning"—something they know is good for them, but usually avoid until it’s too late. In this episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt sits down with independent financial planner Joseph Warren to flip the script and reveal how life insurance acts as a vital funding vehicle, estate equalizer, and legal peace treaty for families and business owners alike. Together, Todd and Joseph pull back the curtain on the financial industry. Joseph shares his early career experiences at large insurance firms, exposing how quota-driven models and limited planning tools often lead to conflicted advice. They break down the critical questions you must ask your advisor to ensure they are serving your best interests rather than just chasing high-commission products. Main Topics Covered Navigating Financial Industry Conflicts: Why fee-biased or commission-driven setups lead to "wolf in sheep’s clothing" advice and how independent, coordinated planning between attorneys, CPAs, and planners creates true harmony. Life Insurance for Business Owners: Using life insurance as a "peace treaty" to fund buy-sell agreements, insure key employees, and equalize inheritances between children who work in the family business and those who do not. Protecting Minor Children & Special Needs Loved Ones: The legal traps of naming a minor child directly as a beneficiary and how pairing life insurance with revocable or supplemental needs trusts protects government benefits and avoids costly probate court guardianships. Sinners and Saints: A sobering look at the Texas "Slayer Statute" (where a murderer loses beneficiary rights), paired with an unexpected archaeological discovery regarding Saint Augustine. Land Rich, Cash Poor & Estate Tax Solutions: How Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts (ILITs) and "Crummey" letters allow high-net-worth families, farmers, and ranchers to pay heavy federal estate taxes without forcing a fire sale on family land. Key Takeaways The Buy-Sell "Peace Treaty": Life insurance gives remaining business partners the cash needed to buy out a deceased partner's shares, ensuring the family receives full financial value without having to manage a business they don't understand. Never Name a Minor as a Beneficiary: Insurance companies cannot pay policy proceeds directly to minors. Doing so forces the surviving parent into court to become a court-appointed guardian over their own child's money. Always route these funds through a properly drafted trust. Be Mindful of the Estate Tax Trap: Though life insurance payout is income-tax-free, the total death benefit is included in your gross estate for federal estate tax purposes unless structured through an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT). Buy Before You Need It: Life insurance must be purchased before tragedy strikes. Health changes can quickly disqualify you, making early, proactive planning the most affordable way to protect your family's future.

The Los Angeles Dodgers lost a game they might have suspected they'd have a hard time winning. Minor-leaguer Cole Irvin allowed six runs in six innings, and the LA offense wasn't able to overcome that much of a hole.

Figli e figlie non perdono la cittadinanza italiana se il genitore si è naturalizzato all'estero quando erano minorenni. Lo ha stabilito la Corte di Cassazione a Sezioni Unite, con una sentenza del 26 luglio. Ne parliamo con l'avvocato Alessia Comandini.

The Department of Health and Human Services has a vacancy in its top IT post. Clark Minor is no longer listed as the agency's chief information officer, per a webpage with the health department's IT leadership. Instead, David Hong, the principal deputy CIO, is now identified as the department's acting IT chief. It is unclear when the change to the webpage was made. HHS spokespeople did not immediately respond to FedScoop's requests for comment on the timing of Minor's departure as CIO. Per an agency source granted anonymity to speak more candidly, Minor gave notice to the secretary and is staying on as an advisor to help with the transition. Minor began at HHS as its chief technology officer in the early days of the second Trump administration, and was eventually tapped to replace Jennifer Wendel as CIO upon her departure. He has often been affiliated with the now-defunct Department of Government Efficiency organization. Before joining the department, Minor was global head of cloud at Palantir Technologies for over a decade, per his financial disclosure published by ProPublica. The United States and United Arab Emirates are setting up a new bilateral military crew that will hustle to integrate their forces' artificial intelligence capabilities, and deploy joint assets to monitor and enhance regional security. Task Force Talon Synapse is slated to soon be fully operational, U.S. Central Command announced Tuesday. Approximately 20 American and Emirati personnel with expertise in AI, data, cybersecurity and related technology areas will serve on the Abu Dhabi-based team. Centcom spokesperson Capt. Tim Hawkins told DefenseScoop: “We're working to sign the agreement in the weeks ahead.” The UAE shares maritime borders with Oman, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran. It's considered one of America's key strategic and geopolitical partners in the Middle East. The two nations' increasingly close cooperation over recent decades has been largely anchored by combined defense operations, major arms sales and the technological interoperability of their militaries.

Parenting teens has a way of surfacing everything we've been avoiding in our marriage. This week I'm talking with Shilo Minor about what happens when the connection thins out and you start feeling more like roommates than partners. We get into fawning, self-abandonment, boundaries that actually hold, and why the inner work is worth doing even when you're the only one doing it. If you love your person and still feel alone in the middle of the teen years, come listen. Guest bio: Shilo Minor is the founder of Your Real Life Love Story and the creator of the Real Love Method, a process that helps women build soul-satisfying marriages without couples therapy. Her heart is in guiding good women to break generational cycles of being emotionally neglected and taken for granted, so they can finally get the love, support, and affection they need from the partner they already chose.

Lindsay Clancy comes to court in a wheelchair, accompanied by nurses from Tewksbury State Hospital. She has a burst fracture of her C1 vertebra, a shattered thoracic and cervical spine, and every rib broken. The word the prosecution's opening statement used for part of her injuries was superficial.The state's case needs her to be a liar three times. She faked being sick. She staged the attempt. She invented the hallucinations after her lawyer coached her. Kevin Reddington's defense opening at Plymouth Superior Court went after all three, and this session wraps four clips from it.On the withholding charge: Reddington said she disclosed, and the prosecution's own first witness confirmed it under oath. Patrick Clancy testified she told him about intrusive thoughts and suicidal ideation months before the children died. On the staging charge: Reddington put photographs and a fracture list in front of the jury. A Jefferson fracture takes headfirst impact. On the coaching charge: a hospital staffer heard the voices before any defense lawyer was in the room.Also inside: the full prescription chart read name by name to the jury, the bipolar diagnosis that came after instead of during, and the DNR she signed — refusing to be brought back — which makes faking any of it structurally impossible.Support: Postpartum Support International, www.postpartum.net or 800-944-4773.

With her amazing new book, CAROUSEL: An Essay On Seeing (Yale University Press), Sarah Minor offers a multi-threaded exploration — lecture, memoir, and art criticism — of how we see and are seen, how our language changes with our vantage points, how all these screens are changing human consciousness (and physiology). We talk about the history of the panorama painting and how it presages today's phone-panopticon, the COVID-era constraints that sparked the book (and the other constraints she needs for writing), and how she struggled with a conventional literary nonfiction structure for Carousel after years of crafting visual essays, then found its shape and voice after a live reading. We get into the comfort of white space, the humor of the Bayeux Tapestry (not a tapestry), the benefits of having a mother who was a late-breaking medievalist, and what happened when a student heard her read from Carousel and asked, "How do you balance historical context with reader fatigue?" We talk about how (some) students prefer lectures over discussion and how she almost made it through college without reading a contemporary writer, her shadow-performance collaboration and why it's important to have artistic offshoots, and more.
