Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Nit picky… the joke about the guy who has a friend who can always find fault in anything. He takes him duck hunting and when he shoots a duck he can't wait because his dog walks on water. There is no way this guy can say anything negative about his dog walking on water… but when the dog jumps out of the boat and walks on water, gets the duck, comes back… his friend just shrugs and says ‘its' to bad your dog doesn't know how to swim”. How many times I have posted something about Jesus only to have “so called Christian friends” get captious about it. What is that? Being captious can be more dangerous than it first appears because it erodes trust, cooperation, and even self-awareness over time. Here are the major dangers: Damaging Relationships Constantly pointing out faults—especially small or irrelevant ones—can alienate friends, family, and colleagues. People may avoid you to escape feeling judged. Destroying Collaboration In work or group settings, captiousness makes brainstorming and teamwork harder. Others may stop sharing ideas for fear of nitpicking or ridicule. Stifling Constructive Problem-Solving Instead of focusing on solutions, captious criticism fixates on flaws, which can halt progress or cause projects to stall. Creating a Hostile Atmosphere A captious approach can foster resentment and defensiveness in others, making any discussion tense and unproductive. Damaging Personal Reputation People may start to label you as “negative,” “hard to please,” or “argumentative,” which can harm credibility and opportunities. Self-Deception Because captiousness often feels like being “just thorough” or “detail-oriented,” the person may not realize they're sabotaging their own influence and relationships. Emotional Toll Continually looking for flaws trains the mind toward negativity, which can contribute to chronic dissatisfaction and even anxiety. If you want, I can also explain the subtle difference between captiousness and healthy critical thinking, since the line can get blurry. That's often where people unintentionally slip into it. Matthew 7:3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. Self-Examination Before Judgment Jesus emphasizes the importance of examining our own faults before pointing out the faults of others. This requires humility and honesty in assessing our spiritual condition. Hypocrisy in Judgment The metaphor of the speck and the beam highlights the danger of hypocrisy. We must be cautious not to judge others harshly while ignoring our own significant shortcomings. The Importance of Humility Recognizing our own imperfections fosters humility, which is essential in our relationships with others and in our walk with God. Restoration with Gentleness When addressing the faults of others, it should be done with a spirit of gentleness and love, aiming for restoration rather than condemnation. Community and Accountability This teaching encourages believers to foster a community where accountability is practiced with grace and understanding, promoting spiritual growth for all.

Send us a textThis conversation is the third segment of SurfingMASH's April discussion of drug development in memory of Stephen A. Harrison. In addition to co-hosts Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green, panelists include hepatologists and key opinion leaders Sven Francque and Naim Alkhouri. Louise starts the discussion by asking when a patient is metabolically and hepatically healthy instead of merely driving weight loss. She notes that basing therapy entirely on weight loss goals will breed failure and frustration while failing to address the actual pivotal goal of metabolic health. Sven agrees and notes how important this point is. Roger suggests that the benefit of weight loss is likely to become limited over time, which is why there is such excitement about GLP-glucagon combination therapies. Again, Sven concurs, noting that such knowledge and increasing drug class diversity will allow researchers to look at true, basic differences between agents instead of "small numerical differences."Jörn notes the importance of NITs in addressing these kinds of issues. Scanning is an effective method for measuring changes in liver fat; however, the academic community has developed surrogate NITs for specific physiological activities. As Sven notes, there is still a great deal of work to do here. That said, Jörn cites examples of large, NIT-based projects like the VCTE Study Group that have sufficient sample size to start building definitions around kilopascal levels. Louise shares her strong concern that many TE operators are not trained adequately to appreciate subtle clues that would tell an expert how an individual scan was providing misleading results. She notes that the increased demand for scanning, in this case TE, is going to drive a watering down of the qualifications and the skill of the user and the supervision level..." The discussion winds down with Sven agreeing with Louise and stating the need for sequential testing and Jörn citing EASL guidelines in stating that practices should provide and manage high-quality care to the best of their abilities.

00:00:00 - Surf's Up: Season 6 Episode 7Host Roger Green explains our recent vacation from publishing episodes, assures the audience that the podcast will continue weekly for months and years ahead, and discusses the episode's sections, covering the Global Think-Tank on Steatotic Liver Disease (SLD), the EASL patient screening activity and the increasing role of NITs in drug development. While introducing roundtable guests, he introduces first-time Surfer Dr. Kristina Curtis of the UK-based consultancy, Applied Behaviour Change.00:09:11 - Roundtable I: From the Global Think-Tank on SLDThis discussion starts with co-host Jörn Schattenberg discussing the history and evolution of the first four Global Think-Tanks as the focus shifts from educating medical professionals about liver disease to incorporating a broader group of stakeholders, including politicians and non-hepatologist MDs, to break down siloes and create wider awareness. Co-host Louise Campbell describes the breadth of stakeholders necessary to address this pandemic fully. She explains how her work with transient elastography and the MyLife365.me app constitutes a form of behavioral therapy. Jörn describes the test as a diagnostic and comments that the treatment is what health professionals do with the results. Kristina says that the behavioral change that results comes from well-delivered feedback. She describes "hybrid interventions, digital interventions with a human in the loop." Louise discusses results from the EASL late-breaker that support these findings and goes on to discuss the role AI can play in medical practices.00:23:50 - Newsmaker: Jose Willemse, Dutch Liver Patients Association This discussion covers two primary topics: (1) the Amsterdam screening activity that took place during EASL. Jose describes the phenomenal level of interest in this activity, in which hepatologists and APPs scanned 400 people per day for MASLD and MASH. Boosted by significant mass publicity in Amsterdam, the number of people seeking screening exceeded the 400/day quota, with some arriving in line hours before the scheduled start time and others traveling for hours to reach the site. Jose believes that with adequate publicity, efforts like these could be replicated around the world, but that the healthcare system lacks the necessary resources to do so. In terms of patient care, Jose emphasized the importance of sensitive yet frank conversations and helping patients appreciate the successes they are achieving. 00:53:45 - Roundtable II: NITs Increasing Role in Drug Development Sven Francque and Naim Alhouri joined Louise, Jörn and Roger for this roundtable, although Naim had dropped off by this time. The conversation starts with Louise noting that the goal of therapy is not simply to treat MASLD, but to achieve overall metabolic health, of which MASLD is a key component. Jörn states that we are on the path toward conducting clinical trials entirely with NITs as disease markers, which he describes as a "game changer" and Louise terms "exciting." She asks whether NITs can serve as the only trial surrogate. Jörn and Sven agree that we are not at that point yet, but we are headed in that direction. Jörn asserts that "nothing" will replace outcomes as the prerequisite for full approval and mentions the VCTE study group as demonstrating that a large NIT-based trial can prove effects on disease. Louise cautions that operator competency is a key, if overlooked, criterion for this kind of activity. Sven concurs and states that repeat measures are crucial in managing disease. Jörn notes that practices can serve as centers of care, but will need support from nutritionists and other professionals. 01:06:08 - Business ReportRoger highlights special September programming, indicates that new sponsors are on the way, and asks how many listeners find SurfingMASH on YouTube.
00:00-15:00: Off the CHarts with CNY basketball great Tyler Cavanaugh. We chat great CNY hoops career at Jamesville-Dewitt, winning the NIT in 2016, International vs. American basketball, his long relationship with Joe Jr., his growing family, golf/hoops differences, what the future holds and more.

In this week's coaching conversation, George Mason head coach Tony Skinn shares insights on defensive identity and competitive spirit.A key starter on the 2006 George Mason Final Four team and one of the best all-around guards in program history, Skinn returned to his alma mater after nearly a decade of work as a collegiate assistant coach.The 2025 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year, Skinn has put together arguably the best start to a coaching career in school history. He set new program bests for overall wins (47), league wins (24), overall winning percentage (.691) and league winning percentage (.667) for a Patriot coach over his first two campaigns. What's more, Skinn's 66.7 A-10 winning percentage is first amongst active league coaches over their first two seasons in the conference.This season, Skinn guided the Patriots to the best season in the program's A-10 history. The Patriots earned a share of their first-ever A-10 regular season title, tallied the program's first NIT victory since 2004 and notched a school record-tying 27 overall victories. The Green & Gold set a new school record for Atlantic 10 league victories (15) and started league play 12-1 for the first time in the program's 59-year history. The Patriots locked up a double bye in the A-10 Tournament for the first time and reached a conference title game for the first time since 2009.George Mason tallied a school-record 18 home victories in 2024-25. The Patriots also swept their A-10 home schedule (9-0) for the first time ever and won five-straight A-10 road games for the first time in program annals. The team's 11-game win streak from Jan. 8-Feb. 18 was the second longest in the nation at the time and was just the fourth 10+ game winning streak in school history.Prior to becoming the head coach of his alma mater, Skinn guided three different programs to the NCAA Tournament as an assistant at Louisiana Tech, Maryland, Ohio State, and Seton Hall.

Transcript:Ca: El sol començava a batre lleument entre els núvols sobre el monestir de Montserrat, envoltat de roques imponents i misteri.En: The sun began to gently beat between the clouds over the monestir de Montserrat, surrounded by imposing rocks and mystery.Ca: A prop de la festivitat de la Nit de Sant Joan, l'ambient al monestir estava ple de preparatius i superstició.En: Near the festival of the Nit de Sant Joan, the atmosphere at the monestir was full of preparations and superstition.Ca: Els seus passadissos ressonaven amb els murmuris dels visitants i els monjos, però un detall trencava la rutina: un dels llibres antics havia desaparegut.En: Its corridors resonated with the murmurs of visitors and monks, but one detail broke the routine: one of the ancient books had disappeared.Ca: Adrià, un historiador apassionat, va saber de l'incident pel nerviosisme de Martina, la bibliotecària del monestir.En: Adrià, a passionate historian, learned of the incident from Martina's nervousness, the librarian of the monestir.Ca: Martina era una dona forta i fidel a la seva feina.En: Martina was a strong woman, faithful to her work.Ca: La biblioteca era el seu regne, i la pèrdua del llibre l'angoixava molt.En: The library was her kingdom, and the loss of the book distressed her greatly.Ca: Adrià va decidir ajudar-la sense pensar-s'ho dues vegades.En: Adrià decided to help her without thinking twice.Ca: Volia trobar el llibre per preservar la seva història i demostrar les seves habilitats davant dels altres estudiosos.En: He wanted to find the book to preserve its history and demonstrate his skills to other scholars.Ca: Un dia, mentre estava revisant els registres, Adrià es va topar amb Júlia.En: One day, while reviewing the records, Adrià came across Júlia.Ca: Aquesta visitant misteriosa semblava saber més del que deia.En: This mysterious visitor seemed to know more than she let on.Ca: Tenia un aire enigmàtic i una calma sospitosa.En: She had an enigmatic aura and a suspicious calm.Ca: Adrià es preguntava si havia de confiar en ella o mantenir-se fidel al seu propi criteri.En: Adrià wondered whether he should trust her or remain faithful to his own judgment.Ca: La Nit de Sant Joan s'apropava i els habitants de Montserrat es tornaven reticents i supersticiosos, fent encara més difícil que Adrià trobés informació.En: As the Nit de Sant Joan approached, the inhabitants of Montserrat became reticent and superstitious, making it even more difficult for Adrià to find information.Ca: Una nit, Adrià va seguir un instint.En: One night, Adrià followed an instinct.Ca: Recordant un detall que Júlia havia mencionat, es va aventurar cap als arxius subterranis.En: Remembering a detail that Júlia had mentioned, he ventured into the underground archives.Ca: Allà, va descobrir un petit indici: una inscripció gairebé esborrada a una vella paret que suggeria l'existència d'una cambra amagada.En: There, he discovered a small clue: an almost erased inscription on an old wall that suggested the existence of a hidden chamber.Ca: Amb el cor ple d'adrenalina i precaució, Adrià va seguir la pista fins a una porta oculta sota una escala polsosa.En: With his heart full of adrenaline and caution, Adrià followed the trail to a hidden door beneath a dusty staircase.Ca: Va obrir la porta i va descobrir un espai senzill.En: He opened the door and discovered a simple space.Ca: Al centre, sota un feix de llum que s'escolava per una petita finestra, hi havia el llibre desaparegut.En: In the center, under a beam of light seeping through a small window, lay the missing book.Ca: I al seu costat, un passatge que connectava antigues llegendes locals amb el passat del monestir.En: And beside it, a passage that connected ancient local legends with the monestir's past.Ca: Aquell descobriment va unir Adrià i Martina com mai abans.En: That discovery united Adrià and Martina like never before.Ca: Junts, decidiren explorar les connexions entre el folklore i la història que vincaven Montserrat a la regió.En: Together, they decided to explore the connections between folklore and history that linked Montserrat to the region.Ca: Adrià, amb una confiança renovada, va sentir que finalment havia trobat el seu lloc al monestir.En: Adrià, with renewed confidence, felt he had finally found his place at the monestir.Ca: La seva passió per l'aventura havia obert la porta a una nova etapa de la seva vida, plena de descobertes i col·laboracions inesperades amb Martina.En: His passion for adventure had opened the door to a new stage in his life, filled with discoveries and unexpected collaborations with Martina.Ca: I en la quietud del monestir, el repic dels campanars assenyalava l'inici d'una nova història.En: And in

'Māyā-mṛgaṁ dayitayepsitam anvadhāvat' - Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu chases after the conditioned souls to embrace them and bring them back to Godhead. He'll take anybody back to God who wants to go. But Lord Nityānanda will even take those people who don't want to go. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Lord Nityānanda are the most merciful of all incarnations in the world. Even māyāvādīs with stone-like hearts, when they hear the names Nitāi and Gaura, begin to cry and dance in ecstasy. Let the whole world hear the sound of their Holy Names by going door to door, everywhere we go, every person we meet, give them an opportunity to take this train back home, back to Godhead. And already, if we listen very carefully, we can hear people who have been weeping in their apartments, lonely after hearing about Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu there's a sound vibration coming up. If we listen really carefully, we can hear it now: Gaura Kṛpā Hole he, Gaura Kṛpā Hole he, oh, for the mercy of Lord Caitanya! ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualmusic #soulfulmusic #gauranitai #kirtan #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

We're not going out to collect money, really. We're going out for our own purification, first and foremost. It's a high sādhana to go out into the great unknown and present the Vedic literatures to people. And it's also something that they really appreciate too, because frankly, life is really boring in the material world. Same things happen all the time, and people are sick and tired of it, and they're waiting for devotees to come door to door. In fact, Prabhupāda wrote in his poem "Vṛndāvane Bhajan," before he came to America, "The people are sitting in their homes, and they're looking out the window down the road, and they're wondering, "When are Nitāi and Gaurāṅga going to come and save me?" Did you know that that's what they're doing in their houses? ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
