What does success look like for you? We have so many people defining how to be successful that we need to pause and define it for ourselves. How to be successful. Is it defined, in your mind, by a bigger house, a bigger car, and a bigger bank account? This is how traditional success is typically defined. But for the work from home and homeschool mom, how to be successful looks completely different. The Instagram reels will try to tell us success looks like six figures, or a homestead, or perfect sourdough bread. But that also doesn't work for work from home and homeschool moms. It is time to go outside of the box and define how to be successful on our own terms. We need a definition that fits real life, not a polished fantasy. Show notes and links: https://lifeunboxed.blog/how-to-be-successful/ Grab your guide today!

Shawn Mahoney of NFPA's Technical Services team joins Drew for his fourth time on The Fire Protection Podcast, and this one covers a lot of ground before landing on a problem the industry keeps stepping over: construction-site fires. You've seen the headlines. A light wood-frame building goes up mid-construction, and the whole thing is gone, like the Denver complex that took a 238-unit building with it, or the South Park fire in North Carolina that killed two workers. Shawn's point is blunt: we already have the standard to prevent this. It's NFPA 241, the Standard for Safeguarding Construction, Alteration, and Demolition Operations, and it's been around since 1930. It's referenced by NFPA 1, NFPA 101, the IBC, and the IFC. "The biggest issue is people just aren't using it," Shawn says. The code isn't broken. Enforcement is. Drew and Shawn dig into why adoption is so piecemeal, what real enforcement looks like (Boston shuts a site down if the fire prevention program manager isn't there), the legislative push after the North Carolina fire, and what the Fire Prevention Program Manager actually has to do day to day. Before that, they preview the NFPA Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, including Drew's Tuesday session on AI and fire protection, how AI has reshaped the codes world through NFPA LiNK, CASI, and the new Notebooks feature, and why data centers and small nuclear reactors are creating fire-protection problems in towns that have never seen anything like them. Join Drew for Episode 96 for a real conversation about why the standards we already have only matter if someone enforces them. Topics covered: Inside the NFPA Conference & Expo in Las Vegas AI in fire protection: NFPA LiNK, CASI, and NFPA Insights LiNK Notebooks for codes, checklists, and impairment permits Data centers and small nuclear reactors as emerging fire risks Light wood-frame construction fires and why they're catastrophic NFPA 241 and the enforcement gap The Fire Prevention Program Manager role   Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 02:27 – Inside the NFPA Conference & Expo 05:35 – AI in Fire Protection 07:46 – Data Centers & Small Nuclear Reactors 09:13 – NFPA LiNK, CASI & NFPA Insights 12:00 – LiNK Notebooks 15:21 – NFPA 241: A Standard Since 1930 16:50 – Why Wood-Frame Construction Fires Are Catastrophic 19:07 – Referenced Everywhere, Enforced Almost Nowhere 20:36 – How Boston Enforces 241 25:54 – The Fire Prevention Program Manager Role 28:33 – Educational Videos & NFPA's YouTube Channels 30:23 – Conclusion

Movie tickets? Bought. Notebooks? Out. Butts? In seats. The Mandalorian and Grogu was the first theatrical release we had the opportunity to see during Growing Up Skywalker's run—and what a joy it was to see Star Wars on the big screen!This week, we're covering the first half of the movie, from opening credits to Embo's first appearance, and parsing themes of fatherhood, masculinity, and bread-and-circus blood sports. We discuss the strategic importance of this movie in giving movie-only fans a taste of the New Republic in its heyday. We also sing the praises of Rotta the Hutt (he who paints arenas with blood and sets the stage for a classic Mandalorian-style romp) and Zeb, who is only getting better with age.Next week, join us for the back half of The Mandalorian & Grogu!Timestamps:00:00:00 Who Are We?00:02:45 Plot Summary00:13:15 The New Republic and Subcontractor Reliance00:31:13 We Have Heart Eyes For Rotta the Hutt00:50:32 Zeb!00:57:43 Bae Watch01:04:03 Closing ThoughtsWant more Growing Up Skywalker?

Welcome to Episode 303 of the Spun Today Podcast—your home for honest conversations about writing, creativity, and the journeys that shape us. I'm your host, Tony Ortiz, and today we're releasing a truly special episode to honor World MS Day. In this heartfelt conversation, I sit down with my wife, Zoila Ortiz, to share her powerful story of living with multiple sclerosis. We dive deep into her first symptoms, the uncertainty of diagnosis, and the emotional and physical challenges that come with MS. Zoila walks us through her search for information, the importance—and dangers—of online self-diagnosis, and the strength found in community. Through candid discussion, Zoila offers an inside look at adapting to adversity, the rollercoaster of medications (Glatiramer by injection (Copaxone) and Fingolimod (Gilenya) to the current day infusion Rituximab which is a monoclonal antibody). We touched on clinical trials, and the vital role of support systems. She talks openly about how MS can impact confidence, independence, and daily routines—but also about how determination and a strong mindset can turn even the most daunting obstacles into new paths forward. We dig into the importance of raising awareness, supporting one another, and using our platforms to connect and inspire. Tune in for a conversation about resilience, empathy, and the healing power of storytelling—and learn how you, too, can advocate for others and yourself.   The Spun Today Podcast is a Podcast that is anchored in Writing, but unlimited in scope.  Give it a whirl.      Twitter: https://twitter.com/spuntoday  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spuntoday/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@spuntoday   Website: http://www.spuntoday.com/home  Newsletter: http://www.spuntoday.com/subscribe    Links referenced in this episode:      Follow Zoila: @melodyrosa2083   What is Multiple Sclerosis video from ASAP Science: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Naecv3h868c   To donate for MS research or partake in activities like Bike MS, Walk MS, or just to learn more, check out the National MS Society: http://www.nationalmssociety.org/     Jpmetz YouTube Page: https://www.youtube.com/@jpmetz     Get your Podcast Started Today! https://signup.libsyn.com/?promo_code=SPUN (Use Promo code SPUN and get up to 2-months of free service!)   Check out all the Spun Today Merch, and other ways to help support this show! https://www.spuntoday.com/support     Check out my Books Make Way for You – Tips for getting out of your own way ÁBRЕТЕ CAMINO: CONSEJOS PARA DEJAR DE SER TU PROPIO OBSTÁCULO (Spanish Edition) FRACTAL – A Time Travel Tale Melted Cold – A Collection of Short Stories   http://www.spuntoday.com/books/ (e-Book, Paperback and Hardcover are now available)   Fill out my Spun Today Questionnaire if you're passionate about your craft.  I'll share your insight and motivation on the Podcast: http://www.spuntoday.com/questionnaire/     Shop on Amazon using this link, to support the Podcast: https://amzn.to/4km592l      Shop on iTunes using this link, to support the Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewTop?genreId=38&id=27820&popId=42&uo=10   Shop at the Spun Today store for Mugs, Notebooks, T-Shirts and more: https://spuntoday-shop.fourthwall.com/   Music: https://www.purple-planet.com   Outro Background Music: https://www.bensound.com   Spun Today Logo by: https://www.naveendhanalak.com/   Sound effects are credited to: http://www.freesfx.co.uk   Listen on: ApplePodcasts | Spotify | Pocket Casts | YouTube | Website

Geek Pride Day kicks off an episode packed with the kind of tips you’ll actually use. You’ll learn why Shift+Tab is your fastest escape from a runaway numbered list, how holding the lower-left CarPlay button summons Siri, and why copy/paste (and drag-and-drop) between apps still beats exporting and re-importing every time. You’ll also get the real story on Comcast’s email migration (spoiler: it’s not mandatory), discover why the Screenshot app blows past Command-Shift-5 (and -4), and figure out how to shut down the fake browser notifications hijacking your Mac. Then it’s into the meaty stuff: whether those no-name fast chargers are quietly cooking your devices, and the brands the guys actually trust to plug in without worry. Public charging stations look innocent until they aren’t, so the crew breaks down power-only cables, data blockers, and the chillingly clever O.MG Cable from Hak5: Don’t Get Caught handing a stranger the keys to your iPhone over a free USB port. You’ll get strategies for sharing organized photo libraries with the non-Mac humans in your life, dock recommendations for driving external monitors from your laptop, and a stacked Cool Stuff Found run featuring Gifski for gorgeous animated GIFs, WhatCable.uk for decoding that mystery USB-C cable in your drawer, Talk For Me v3 piping text-to-speech into FaceTime calls, and free GigSky eSIM data for Visa Signature cardholders heading abroad.

You can homeschool, work, and eat in as small space. It just takes a little imagination to organize a small space. Your home is both a living space and a learning space, the line between chaos and calm gets blurry really fast. Whether you have a dedicated homeschool room or you are making magic happen in the corner of your kitchen, you can absolutely create a space that works. You can organize a small space to work for you. If you are buying the same book twice because you can't find it, or the quiz book disappears for months like it joined witness protection, then it is time to organize your small space. Your homeschool space should work for functionality, flexibility, and peace of mind. The good news? You don't need a bigger house. You just need a few genius strategies to organize a small space.Show notes and links: https://lifeunboxed.blog/organize-a-small-space/ Grab your guide today!

Welcome to another episode of Spun Today, where writing and creativity fuel our exploration of stories across media. I'm Tony Ortiz, your host, inviting you to view each topic through the lens of a writer's craft. In this episode, we dive deep into the writing lessons hidden within Black Mirror's "Eulogy," examining how memory shapes narrative and the power of withheld information. Then, we break down Mark Normand's razor-sharp Netflix special, "None Too Pleased," pulling out tools for punchy, impactful writing—whether you're crafting jokes or stories. And in our recurring GOATS DOING GOAT SHIT segment, we celebrate the creative generosity of Tyler Perry.

This episode of Alchemical Dialogues features host Henry Cretella in conversation with Micha-El (Alan Berkowitz) on the life and teachings of Paul Brunton, and the intersections of Sufism, Vedanta, and other contemplative traditions. The discussion begins with Henry describing how he first encountered Brunton's book The Short Path to Enlightenment, which he initially bought simply because of the title but left unread for years. Later, through engagement with Sufi practice and references to figures such as Ramana Maharshi and conversations within his spiritual circle, he returned to the book and found it deeply meaningful. Micha-El shares his background growing up in suburban New York in a non-religious Jewish family, where institutional religion felt empty and unengaging. During his time at Cornell University in 1969, amid political and social upheaval, he experienced an existential crisis. Feeling disillusioned with both activism and academic structures, he was directed to the American Brahmin Bookstore in Ithaca, associated with Anthony Damiani. There he encountered a comparative study of spiritual traditions, including Buddhism, Hinduism, Sufism, and Western mystical thought, all presented in a unified way. Through Damiani, Micha-El eventually encountered Paul Brunton and later met him personally several times in Switzerland and the United States. Brunton is described as someone who studied and synthesized many traditions and teachers, producing a body of work that includes A Search in Secret India and later The Notebooks of Paul Brunton, a large compilation of teachings organized into thematic categories. Micha-El emphasizes Brunton's approach as both experiential and investigative. Brunton did not present himself as a guru but as a researcher of consciousness. His work draws from direct encounters with teachers, texts, and his own inner experience. He was also interested in integrating scientific inquiry with mystical insight, emphasizing a “scientific attitude” toward spiritual experience. A central teaching discussed is Brunton's idea of “the quest,” which includes four aims: knowing the self, knowing the higher self (or Overself), knowing the universe, and understanding one's relation to the universe. This framework combines inner realization with understanding of the external world, including modern science, rather than rejecting it. The conversation also covers Brunton's distinctions between different levels of realization, including temporary “glimpses,” personal illumination, and what he called cosmic illumination. Micha-El explains that glimpses are often the initial experiences that draw people into spiritual seeking, but they are not the final stage. Meditation is described as a movement beyond thought into a deeper inner emptiness where thoughts cease. In this state, Brunton suggests, communication can occur at a subtler level than language or intellect. Henry connects this to contemplative practices in Sufism and Christianity, while Mikael relates it to similar ideas in Buddhism and Vedanta. A significant theme is the role of teachers. Brunton acknowledged that qualified teachers are rare but valuable, yet he did not require students to depend on one. Instead, he emphasized what he called an independent path, where individuals rely on inner guidance and serious study. Books, in this sense, can function as direct transmissions when deeply engaged. The discussion also addresses Brunton's skepticism toward spiritual organizations. He observed that many become entangled in ego, power, and institutional issues. While organizations may preserve teachings, he did not see them as essential for spiritual realization. Both Henry and Micha-El reflect on the difficulty of discerning authentic teachers, noting that seekers must rely on experience, patience, and discernment rather than idealized expectations. They also discuss Brunton's broader view of human development, moving from materialism to religion, then mysticism, and finally philosophy as a synthesis of intuition and intellect. The episode closes with reflections on Brunton's vision of a decentralized spiritual transmission: individuals working inwardly, often in isolation, yet forming a subtle collective of understanding through shared inquiry and practice.

Do you feel like you need a parenting guide for the real world? You know one that isn't full of ideas that no one will use, but a practical guide from parents who have done this thing well. Real world parenting isn't Instagram or Pinterest perfect.

Kids don't come with a parenting guide, but we can learn from those who are further ahead of us.  Parenting can feel like you are making decisions on the fly.

Yet, even in these hectic times you're showing up, adjusting, and figuring it out as you go. And that's exactly what this parenting guide is here to help you do. This is your official permission slip to ditch the idea of being perfect and embrace the real life, boots-on-the-ground version of parenting.Show notes and links: https://lifeunboxed.blog/parenting-guide/ Grab your guide today!

In this podcast Jon Westfall and I were joined by our long-time friend Steve Hughes, who returned to the show after a long period of heavy travel. I used the opening of the show to test a new Boya CM40 condenser microphone, comparing its sound quality to my MacBook's built-in mic, my 4K USB camera, and my AirPods. It is always fun to play with new toys.. I have become a massive fan of NotebookLM and the new notebooks feature within Google Gemini,. I recently fed hundreds of our podcast show notes and blog posts into a Gemini notebook to see how it handled the data. We discussed how this technology is becoming popular in academia as a tool for students to engage with material, though it poses a significant threat to the textbook industry by easily creating the same supplemental materials publishers charge for,. I've even been using it to build animated video presentations and conduct additional research, which are features included in the $20-a-month AI Pro subscription,. Our conversation turned toward the concept of "digital sovereignty," a movement in the European Union to reduce dependency on U.S. tech giants. We looked into the history of open-source office suites, from StarOffice to the current fragmentation of LibreOffice,. Interestingly, the EU is now looking toward "EuroOffice," a fork of OnlyOffice (which itself has roots in Latvian and Russian development) to replace Microsoft Office. Steve, Jon, and I debated whether this would be a cleaner transition than past attempts, especially as corporate customers grow increasingly annoyed with the "nickel and diming" of subscription services,. Jon and I revisited the "technology gap" we see in students who have grown up exclusively on Chromebooks. Many struggle with the basic concept of a file structure or how to actually download a file to a specific directory. My own daughter recently joked that Windows is for "old people," which signals a shift Microsoft should be wary of. However, Jon shared a positive note on the democratization of app development. He built a purpose-built fitness timer for his strength training in just 20 minutes using AI,. While this "one-two punch" of AI interviewing and coding is powerful, I cautioned against the "Microsoft Access problem"—the risk of non-programmers building mission-critical tools that lack documentation or error-checking,. On the hardware front, Jon shared his first impressions of the MCON controller, a slider-style mobile gaming device that features a built-in MagSafe stand. While the buttons are a bit small for some, its "pocketability" makes it a strong contender for travel,. Steve updated us on the Sea Otter Classic, essentially the "CES for bikes," highlighting new e-bike motors that are rejuvenating the industry,. We also touched on the EV market, specifically the Scout SUV and its move toward a range-extending motor. Steve even noted a great practical tip: using an EV as a reverse-load power source to keep a refrigerator running for up to two weeks during a blackout. Listen to the full podcast to hear Steve's story about meeting will.i.am at CES.

What if your AI assistant already knew your school handbook, your church's mission statement, your newsletter archives — and you never had to explain any of it again? That's the promise of AI workspaces, and in this episode Martin and Sallie break down how to put them to work in a ministry setting. The "big four" AI platforms — Claude, ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot — all offer some version of a persistent workspace where you can load documents, set instructions, and give your AI a running head start. Claude calls them Projects, Gemini calls them Gems, and Copilot offers Notebooks. Martin walks through how he uses these tools for WELSTech production, the WELS AI Task Force, the WELS strategic plan, and even Lutheran theology — and shares a memorable analogy: it's the difference between a substitute teacher and the one who built the lesson plans and knows the students. Practical use cases explored include principals loading staff handbooks and curriculum, pastors uploading text studies and constitution documents, and church council leaders organizing strategic planning materials. Sallie adds her own example using Copilot agents for data reporting with SQL — no more re-explaining context every time. The conversation wraps up with honest cautions: workspaces aren't set-it-and-forget-it, AI can still hallucinate, and human discernment remains essential. Sallie reminds listeners that a great companion document to any AI workspace you set up is the WELS AI Ethical Framework. Ministry Resource: The WELS AI Task Force has published an AI Ethical Framework, a Stewardship and Risk Assessment, and a Survey Summary — all available at welstech.wels.net/ai/. A feedback form is open for your input on these documents. Picks of the Week: Sallie: Epson EcoTank printer (model ET-2800) — nearly 3,000 prints on the original ink bottles, easy refills, and dramatically lower cost than cartridge printers Martin: Markdown Viewer (Chrome/Edge extension) — drag any .MD file into your browser and see it beautifully formatted, no extra software needed Community Feedback: The Center for Apologetics and Worldviews (ELS) is hosting their 8th Annual Summer Meetup on June 24–25 at Bethany Lutheran College, focused entirely on artificial intelligence and the Christian faith. Registration is free; a $10 lunch donation is suggested. Coming Up: WELSTech is moving to a new platform, and the show notes will also be available at welstech.wels.org. Stay tuned for updates! � welstech@wels.net | � welstech.wels.net WELSTech is the official technology podcast of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, exploring the intersection of technology and ministry since 2008.

Welcome back to the Spun Today Podcast! In this milestone 299th episode, host Tony Ortiz dives deep into the creative engines behind two unconventional, standout shows: "Shrinking" on Apple TV+ and "Tires" on Netflix. Through a writer's lens, Tony unpacks what makes these series resonate—not just as entertainment, but as studies in authentic storytelling, sharp dialogue, and the beautiful messiness of life. You'll get a writer's breakdown of how "Shrinking" navigates grief, healing, and messy relationships with a perfect blend of humor and raw honesty. Tony highlights takeaways on building layered characters, balancing tone, and allowing supporting roles to stand on their own. Then, it's over to "Tires," where he explores what happens when independent creators trust their voices, lean into imperfection, and deliver something refreshingly real. This episode isn't just about reviewing television; it's about celebrating the creative process—polish versus voice, character growth that feels real, and why sometimes the magic is found outside the system. Whether you're a fellow writer, a creative, or simply a fan of powerful storytelling, this episode is packed with motivational insights and actionable lessons to fuel your own projects. Get ready to be inspired to create, embrace the rough edges, and remember that sometimes the best stories are the ones that stay a little messy. Let's dive in!

You officially learned how to start a homeschool group as a non-profit organization. Or at least you have the tools and knowledge to know where to begin. Now it is time to put procedures in place, so the functioning of the homeschool group is smooth. Or at least as smooth as possible while you figure things out. Yes, you are going to have an idea of how you want your homeschool group to operate, and you will put those policies in place. But as you get into it, you will find that there are things you couldn't foresee or a better way to manage it, and then you will change it. And that's ok. Make these procedures easy enough to implement and flexible enough to change. Show notes and resource links:  https://lifeunboxed.blog/homeschool-group/ Find your tribe.

You drop into an iMessage quick tip and quickly branch into a whole toolkit for running your Apple life smarter. You learn faster ways to edit messages, how Slack's up-arrow muscle memory carries over, and why platforms limit your edit window. From there, the show rolls into clever NFC and QR workflows for appliance manuals, Time Machine fixes over SMB on Synology, and a deep dive on spam and email hygiene: Fastmail's undelete safety net, SaneBox's smart filtering, Apple Mail's categories, plus when to reach for SpamSieve or even your own chatbot to watch junk folders so you Don't Get Caught losing important mail. The crew also compares real‑world email providers, DNS setups (Cloudflare, Google, Quad9), and router‑level changes that stabilize your network.

Welcome to episode 297 of the Spun Today Podcast! I'm your host, Tony Ortiz, and in this free writing session, we're diving into the intersection of motivation, creativity, and the craft of writing. In this episode, I'll share my own writing journey, including detailed stats on how I've been keeping up with my writing goals—even amid holidays and life's curveballs. I'll talk about the process of revamping and self-publishing my first book, "Make Way for You," and discuss the labor—and breakthroughs—of translating it into Spanish using cutting-edge AI tools. You'll get a practical, behind-the-scenes look at modern self-publishing, from designing your own covers with new technologies to making your stories accessible in multiple languages. I'll also pass along an essential writing tip inspired by the age-old practice of keeping a commonplace book—a method that has fueled some of today's most prolific authors. Plus, we're diving into Omar El Akkad's powerful new book, "One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This." I'll unpack some of its most striking passages—not just for their social and political weight, but for the craft behind them—and extract actionable lessons for writers seeking resonance and precision. To round things out, I'll read one of my own reflective free writing pieces, exploring the balance between accomplishment and the creative hunger for what's next. So, whether you're looking for inspiration to start writing, tips to refine your creative practice, or simply a fresh perspective on the art of storytelling, this episode has something for every writer and creative thinker.

Resources mentioned in the show: https://lifeunboxed.blog/co-op-homeschool/ Homeschooling doesn't mean that you do everything alone. Co-op homeschool is a great way for families to get together and share what they are good at, things they like, and find support. Co-op homeschool is a great way to add enrichment classes to your homeschool, without adding one more thing to teach to your plate.  Homeschool co-ops give parents a break from teaching every subject. They give mom and kids a great outlet to socialize,  and provide opportunities for classes that are more fun in a group setting. And, I know what you're thinking. If this is a true co-op homeschool, what can I teach? Mom, you can teach a co-op homeschool class, it is fun, and I have ideas for you. Find your tribe.

You dig into the little things macOS quietly does for you, starting with the surprising truth about Clipboard History and why macOS 26 might feel slower than you’d expect. You explore ways to rein things in, from taming runaway apps to making better use of iPhone Mirroring and clever video capture tricks. Along the way, you're reminded that old hardware still has value if you give it purpose, and that blind trust in AI troubleshooting can lead you astray faster than it helps. This is where staying curious beats staying complacent, and where “Don't Get Caught” is more than a catchphrase. Then you move into the real-world problem solving that defines Mac Geek Gab: networking quirks that break expectations, WiFi settings that ignore reservations, and router updates that change the rules midstream. You also get clear, practical guidance on buying the right Mac, migrating only what you actually need, hunting down duplicate files, and reclaiming menu bar space from the notch. Even photo libraries get a reality check, helping you decide what truly needs to live inside Photos. It's a fast-moving episode packed with answers you can use immediately, designed to keep your setup efficient, intentional, and frustration-free. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1121 for Monday, December 22nd, 2025 December 22nd: International Day of Mathematics MGG Monthly Giveaway – Enter to win a copy of OpenIn!
