Do you have enough power available to run all the equipment you want to use on your boat? Here are some simple calculations to ensure you have all the power you need, when you need it. Summary New cruisers are often surprised by how much electricity it takes to live comfortably on a boat. But you won't be caught short if you know how to make a few simple calculations. Let's talk about calculating your boat's power needs. The key steps for 12-volt devices include: Finding the power draw of the equipment, which is usually found on the package. If the power draw is expressed in watts, convert it to amps. Multiply the number of amps by the number of hours you expect to use it. If you're looking at items that run on regular household current through your inverter, you'll need to estimate a bit. Multiply the number of amps it draws by ten to approximate the 12-volt draw once it runs through your inverter--round up. Once you know the power draw of the equipment you want to run, compare it against the battery capacity available to you.

Every pound a broiler chick puts on up to market distribution uses a gallon of water. Multiply that by the nearly 10 billion birds produced in the U.S. each year — predominantly in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic states — and that's a small lake's worth of H2O. Much of that is the byproduct of processing, and managing that nutrient- and solids-dense water sustainably and economically is a priority for the entire poultry supply chain. Auburn University's Brendan Higgins has been studying the options for nearly a decade, and has found that poultry processing water byproducts can be used boost crops — even lettuce, which is especially vulnerable to contamination. Mindful of the fact that every site is unique, he and his team have vetted several options for processors to consider, primarily using technology that's familiar to the industry and may already be at-hand. Higgins explains his research and its applications to the industry in this episode of MeatingPod.Listeners who are interesting in learning more should check out these papers written by Dr. Higgins and his team on the topic they have dubbed "PoultryPonics":https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960852425001932https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301479725005353https://pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.1021/acsestwater.4c00262
When disaster strikes, we often struggle with trust in ourselves, others, and God. Genesis 9 shows us how God meets Noah's family after the flood with a powerful covenant (or promise) that offers comfort and security. This covenant has four key aspects: its broad scope includes all creation, its security is permanent across generations, its singularity means it depends solely on God's faithfulness, and its seal (the rainbow) serves as a reminder of God's commitment. Through Jesus Christ, we experience an even greater covenant that offers security when our world falls apart, reminding us to find our comfort in God's faithfulness rather than our circumstances.Visit https://www.centralchurch.com to get involved with Central Church.

Please note that the 1st part is in English, and the 2nd part is in Malayalam starting 14:38 mark.Luke 12:48 – From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more.” വളരെ ലഭിച്ചവനോടു വളരെ ആവശ്യപ്പെടും; അധികം ഏറ്റുവാങ്ങിയവനോടു അധികം ചോദിക്കും.Every person is God's special creation. God has put some investment in every person in terms of talents in varying degrees. Every person is created with some talents. God knows everyone's talents. If we try to identify our talents, we can do so, especially if we ask God about it. If we don't do so, we are fooling ourselves. Other people can recognize our talents too. The ability to sing, dance, speak in public, act in public, teach others, be a leader etc. are talents useful to the world. There are other spiritual talents too. The willingness to pray and intercede for others, do charity to the poor, help others in their difficulties, love others as we love ourselves, guide others to the proper way they should go, counsel others who need help, share the pain of others, control our tongue, forgive others, humble ourselves etc. are some spiritual talents. God expects everyone who has talents to use it for their own wellbeing, for the benefit of others and for the glory of God.My name... Cicilysunny@gmail.com

Finding hope after disaster requires action, not just a change in attitude. Genesis 9 shows us how Noah moved forward after the flood by returning to God's original calling to multiply, remembering God's covenant, and recognizing that sin still exists in human nature. We're called to perpetuate God's image through investing in the next generation, project His image through exercising self-discipline and dominion in our lives, and protect His image through supporting justice. No matter what failures we've experienced, God offers us renewal and a fresh start when we return to our calling.Visit https://www.centralchurch.com to get involved with Central Church.
Jesus was remarkably intentional about investing in a few disciples- then commissioning them to Go make more disciples. So- The Way of Jesus has always expanded not just through addition- but through multiplication. In fact- The Real Goal of every Jesus Follower is to become a Multiplier of Jesus' hope and heartbeat in the world.

Contractor Success Map with Randal DeHart | Contractor Bookkeeping And Accounting Services
This Podcast Is Episode 645, And It's About Construction Estimates: Why Your Bids Should Spell Everything Out As a contractor, you've likely had this experience: you deliver a job estimate to a client, they accept, and you get to work. Everything goes smoothly—until halfway through the project when the client says, “Wait, I thought this included the backsplash,” or “I assumed cleanup was part of the price.” Suddenly, what you thought was a straightforward project turns into a debate about expectations. The client feels misled, you feel frustrated, and worst of all, your profit margin starts to shrink. The root problem? The estimate wasn't clear enough. In construction, your estimate is more than just a number—it's a roadmap. It tells your client what's included, what's not, and sets the financial foundation for your project. A vague or rushed estimate leads to misunderstandings, disputes, and, most importantly, lost profits. As construction bookkeeping specialists, we've seen time and again that contractors who take the time to create precise, detailed estimates consistently run more profitable jobs. Let's break down why your bids should spell everything out, and how doing so protects your bottom line. The Real Cost of Vague Estimates When your estimate is unclear, three things happen: 1. Scope Creep Becomes Inevitable If you don't define exactly what's included, clients will naturally assume more. Every “little” addition—a fixture change, extra paint coat, or a bit of demo—eats into your profit. Without a signed change order, you're essentially doing free work. 2. Client Trust Erodes A client who feels surprised by added charges won't just be upset—they'll question your integrity. Even if you're being fair, unclear estimates make you look unprofessional. 3. Cash Flow Suffers If you forget to include certain costs—like disposal fees, permits, or delivery—you'll end up covering them out of pocket. Multiply that over several jobs, and suddenly your bank account feels tight, even though you're “busy.” What Clear Estimates Do for Your Business A well-written estimate does more than avoid disputes; it also facilitates effective communication. It creates a foundation for profitability: Protects Your Profit Margin – By listing labor, materials, and extras, you ensure that nothing is forgotten and everything is accurately priced. Manages Client Expectations – Clients understand precisely what they're getting and what they're not. No surprises, no arguments. Improves Professional Reputation – A polished, detailed bid positions you as a contractor who runs a serious business. This often justifies higher pricing. Simplifies Bookkeeping & Job Costing – Clear estimates help you track actual vs. estimated costs, making future bids more accurate. What to Include in Every Estimate To protect your profit, your bids should cover more than just the basics. Here's what to spell out: 1. Scope of Work Detail exactly what work will be performed. For example: “Remove and replace 200 sq. ft. of flooring in the living room” is clearer than “Install flooring.” 2. Materials List the materials included, specifying the grade or brand when possible. If clients want upgrades, they'll know it costs more. 3. Labor Costs Break down labor separately from materials. This not only clarifies pricing but also helps if the client questions why the project costs what it does. 4. Timeline & Scheduling Provide an estimated start and completion date, along with notes on potential delays (e.g., permits, weather, client decisions). 5. Exclusions Spell out what is not included. For example, disposal, electrical, or painting, if not part of your scope. This protects you from assumptions. 6. Change Order Policy Include language like: “Any work not listed in this estimate will require a signed change order before proceeding.” This sets the expectation from the start. 7. Payment Terms Outline deposit requirements, progress payments, and final payment due dates. Clear payment terms support healthy cash flow. A Real-Life Example Let's say you bid on a bathroom remodel at $10,000. You wrote “install new tile floor” in your estimate. Halfway through, the client says they thought you were also retiling the shower walls. You now face a choice: Eat the cost and do it to keep the client happy (losing profit), or Argue that it wasn't included (damaging the relationship). If your estimate had said, “Install new tile floor, 200 sq. ft., client provides tile. Shower tile not included,” the expectation would be clear. Any additional work would require a signed change order. No profit lost. How Clear Estimates Make Bookkeeping Easier From a bookkeeping standpoint, detailed estimates are gold. Why? Because they give you a clear benchmark for job costing, you can compare what you estimated vs. what you actually spent on labor, materials, and subs. Over time, this data makes your bids sharper and your margins more reliable. Without detailed estimates, your books become guesswork. You'll never know which jobs are profitable and which ones are draining your resources. Tips for Creating Clear, Professional Estimates Use Templates – Don't start from scratch each time. A standard estimate template ensures you never forget important details. Leverage Software – Even basic estimating tools or accounting software can help automate calculations and keep everything organized. Don't Rush – Take the time to measure, calculate, and spell things out. A rushed estimate often leads to rushed profits. Review Before Sending – Double-check that labor, materials, and exclusions are listed clearly. Keep Copies – Always save a signed copy for your records. Final thoughts In construction, profit isn't just about how well you build—it's about how well you plan. A clear estimate isn't busywork; it's a tool that protects your bottom line, manages client expectations, and sets you apart as a professional. Every time you prepare a bid, ask yourself: If someone who knows nothing about construction read this, would they understand precisely what's included and what's not? If the answer is yes, you're on the right track. Remember: Clear estimates lead to clear profits. Don't leave your success up to chance—spell it out, every time.

In a world that mirrors the moral decay of Noah's time, we need an ark of refuge just as Noah did. Today, Jesus Christ serves as our ark, protecting us from judgment, gathering us as family, providing truth, and offering clarity in confusing times. The church reflects this ark imagery, giving us community when society seems to be falling apart. By entering this spiritual ark, we can endure societal corruption, enjoy God's grace, and experience a fresh start. Like Noah, our response should be worship and gratitude, inviting others to find the same refuge we've discovered in Christ.Visit https://www.centralchurch.com to get involved with Central Church.
Have you ever noticed how much time we spend measuring things in life? We keep track of promotions, paychecks, grades, likes, followers, even steps on our watches. Measuring isn't the problem, it's just that sometimes we're measuring the wrong things.That's exactly what Jesus addresses in Matthew 25. In His story of the talents, the Master doesn't reward the servant for results, fame, or accomplishments. He celebrates something else entirely. This Sunday we continued in our series MULTIPLY, looking at how we recalibrate our hearts to heaven's scoreboard and rediscover the joy of living faithfully with what God has placed in our hands in a message called, “What the Master Measures”.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).Connect to Captivate! - https://shorturl.at/nKxQuIf you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

This Day in Legal History: Final Draft of the US Constitution EngrossedOn September 16, 1787, the final draft of the United States Constitution was signed by the Constitutional Convention delegates in Philadelphia. Although the official signing date was September 17, the 16th was the day the finished document was ordered to be engrossed — meaning it was written in its final, formal script on parchment. This step marked the culmination of four months of intense debate, compromise, and drafting by delegates from twelve of the thirteen original states. The Constitution replaced the failing Articles of Confederation and established a stronger federal government with distinct executive, legislative, and judicial branches.Debates on September 16 included last-minute details such as how amendments could be proposed and the extent of federal power over the militia. The delegates had already resolved key issues like the Great Compromise (creating a bicameral legislature), the Electoral College, and the Three-Fifths Compromise regarding the counting of enslaved individuals for representation. One of the final acts on the 16th was the approval of the letter that would accompany the Constitution to Congress, urging ratification by the states.Though the Constitution would still need to be ratified by nine of the thirteen states, the events of September 16 set the stage for the formal adoption the following day. The engrossed copy would be signed on September 17 and later become the foundation of American law and governance.Maurene Comey, a former federal prosecutor and daughter of ex-FBI Director James Comey, has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over her sudden termination in July. She alleges that her firing was politically motivated, stemming from her father's adversarial relationship with Donald Trump. The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan federal court, names both the Justice Department and the Executive Office of the President as defendants and claims Comey was given no reason for her dismissal. According to the suit, Comey had received strong performance evaluations, including one in April signed by Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.Comey had played key roles in high-profile prosecutions, including the sex trafficking case against Ghislaine Maxwell and the recent conviction of Sean “Diddy” Combs on prostitution-related charges. She was fired just two weeks after the Combs trial ended. The email she received from DOJ human resources cited presidential authority under Article II but offered no specific explanation. When she asked Clayton about the decision, he allegedly said, “All I can say is it came from Washington.”The lawsuit challenges the administration's ability to remove career, non-political prosecutors and raises concerns about politicization of the Justice Department, particularly in cases involving Trump or his allies.Former federal prosecutor Maurene Comey sues Trump administration over firing | ReutersElon Musk's company X Corp has settled a trademark dispute with legal marketing firm X Social Media over the use of the “X” name. The case, filed in Florida federal court in October 2023, stemmed from Musk's rebranding of Twitter to X, which X Social Media claimed caused consumer confusion and financial harm. As part of the resolution, both parties asked the court to dismiss the case with prejudice, meaning it cannot be reopened. The founder of X Social Media, Jacob Malherbe, confirmed the settlement and announced the company will now operate under the name Mass Tort Ad Agency.The terms of the settlement were not disclosed, and X Corp did not issue a comment. The lawsuit was one of several Musk's company has faced over the “X” name, which is widely used and trademarked by numerous businesses, including Microsoft and Meta. In its defense, X Corp argued that many companies have long coexisted with similar “X” trademarks and accused X Social Media of trying to exploit the situation for profit. This settlement follows another earlier agreement in which X Corp resolved a separate trademark claim brought by the firm Multiply.The dismissal brings closure to a case that raised questions about branding overlap and trademark dilution in an increasingly crowded digital landscape.Musk's X Corp settles mass-tort ad agency's trademark lawsuit over 'X' name | ReutersTwo U.S. law firms, Bartlit Beck and Kaplan Fox & Kilsheimer, are requesting $85 million in legal fees after securing a $700 million settlement with Google over alleged antitrust violations tied to its Play Store. The settlement, which is still pending approval by U.S. District Judge James Donato, resolves claims that Google overcharged Android users by restricting app distribution and imposing excessive in-app transaction fees. Under the agreement, $630 million will go to a consumer fund, with another $70 million allocated to a state-managed fund shared by all 50 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.Consumers are expected to receive a minimum of $2, with additional compensation based on their Play Store spending from August 2016 to September 2023. Google also agreed to ease restrictions on app developers, allowing them to inform users about alternative payment methods and enabling easier direct app downloads from the web. The fee request amounts to approximately 13.5% of the consumer settlement fund, and the firms say they invested nearly 100,000 hours over more than three years.While Judge Donato previously raised concerns about the scope of the deal, no U.S. state has objected to the fee request so far. Google has not admitted any wrongdoing as part of the settlement, and users will still have the opportunity to raise objections before final approval.Lawyers behind $700 million Google settlement ask for $85 million fee award | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week looks at Norway's recent national election, which effectively became a referendum on one of the last remaining wealth taxes in Europe. Despite having a $2 trillion sovereign wealth fund and no immediate fiscal need for a wealth tax, Norwegians narrowly backed the Labour Party, signaling that voters still care about fairness in taxation—even when the government doesn't need the money. In a global landscape where wealth taxes have mostly disappeared, this was a small but potent victory for the principle of equity.I argued that this matters beyond Norway. Wealth taxes used to be common across Europe, but most were abandoned due to fears of capital flight and elite lobbying. That Norway held the line—even amid billionaire threats and a populist surge—suggests that wealth taxes can survive politically when fairness becomes a central electoral value. It also underscores that symbolic wins can shape broader policy debates by proving what's administratively and politically possible.In the U.S., we lack Norway's fiscal cushion, yet we've persistently avoided taxing wealth. Policymakers often justify this inaction with fears about capital mobility, but I question whether we're really more vulnerable to capital flight than Norway is. The deeper issue is political will. Americans have long treated wealth taxation as politically toxic and bureaucratically unworkable, but that may be more a product of narrative than necessity.Norway's voters showed that fairness can be enough to win—even narrowly. But I emphasize that such policies require ongoing public defense; they don't sustain themselves. If we continue dodging the issue in the U.S., we'll be doing so not from a place of strength, but from a place of illusion. If Norway can defend taxing wealth despite not needing to, we have no excuse not to even try.Norway Wealth Tax Victory Shows Visible Fairness Still Matters This is a public episode.

In this powerful message, we delve into the heart of discipleship and its vital role in our Christian walk. The key scripture, 2 Timothy 2, paints a vivid picture of spiritual multiplication. Just as Paul mentored Timothy, we're called to pour into others and help them grow in faith. This isn't just about gaining knowledge; it's about transformation through intentional relationships. The analogy of living stones from 1 Peter 2 reminds us that we're not meant to stand alone, but to be built together into God's spiritual house. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to consider: Who are we pouring into? Who's pouring into us? Our faith isn't meant to be static, but dynamic and ever-growing. In a world that desperately needs hope, we're reminded that our mission is critical. We're called not just to gather, but to be launched into the world, sharing the love and truth of Christ with those around us.
In Genesis 4-5, we witness the stark contrast between Cain's corrupted lineage and Seth's faithful line. While Cain's descendants pursued self-glorification through cities, achievements, and violence, Seth's line began to call upon the name of the Lord. This fundamental difference highlights our purpose: to reflect God's image in a corrupt world. Enoch exemplifies this by walking with God so faithfully that God took him directly. As Christians today, we're called to reflect Jesus in every aspect of our lives—at work, home, and in our communities—turning many from iniquity through our example and bringing God's peace wherever we go.
