This week's Alpha Trader podcast features hosts Aaron Task and Stephen Alpher talking with Mark Dow, author of the Behavioral Macro Blog, and a former hedge fund manager. Among the topics covered: The China regulatory crackdown is clearly not good news for that country's tech names, and suggests not great relations between Beijing and D.C., but it need not be a headwind for additional records for the S&P 500 While it's entirely possible that we've already passed the peak growth phase of the current economic recovery, that doesn't mean solid growth won't continue for several more quarters or years. Along those same lines, Dow believes that inflation may have peaked as well A lot has been made about what the recent big drop in long-term Treasury yields might be saying, but Dow believes that price signals in the government bond market aren't what they used to be. Find out why Dow's explanation of the monetary policy transmission pipes. The Cliff's Notes: It's a closed system, i.e. the Fed's “printing” of money ends doesn't go into the economy, it stays in the Federal Reserve deposits of the banks. It's for this reason that those predicting the next great inflation keep getting it wrong.

News and Notes: It was a busy week! We talked about the Tatis extension, Justin Turner re-signing, Paxton returning to Seattle, other moves, as well as Realmuto's thumb and Bieber's Covid diagnosis. Guest Segment: We are joined by Dead Pull Hitter, Rob DiPietro and Razzball's Torres to break down relief pitchers. We each give one we are higher on than consensus, one we are lower on than consensus, and one who isn't the closer that we believe could become the closer. Question of the week: Which manager of all-time would you least want to get into a fight with?Game of the week by DMendy
WoHos!It's Australia week on the World of Horror Podcast!! Our all-watch this week is the 2005 slasher flick, "Wolf Creek". Mac watched the 2009 splatter film "The Loved Ones" and Mom watched the killer crocodile film, "Black Water". Which role did John Jarratt (Mick Taylor in Wolf Creek) turn down? Which role in a killer crocodile film did he accept? How many humans do crocodiles kill per year? How many alligator and crocodile films has Mac seen?Notes:It seems Mick Taylor was referring to war crimes the Australians committed in Vietnam and that he was a member of the ANZAC.Palindromes are words that have the same meaning backwards and forwards, such as noon and radar. "Semordinilaps" are words that have different meanings read backward and forward such as stressed/desserts, diaper/repaid or in the case of "Wolf Creek", Navithalim Mining Company (Ivan Milat), kind of.Crocodiles are not dinosaurs nor are they descended from dinosaurs. They are cousins of dinosaurs. Badass cousins.What did we get right? What do you want to fight us on? Aw, WoHo's, let's not fight!Some folks I missed in the Thanks and Refs Bit: Allen Hyde, The DiMattias and Quinn McLaughlin.Next week, our all watch is "Sint".

Notes:It's an impossible task to live the Christian life in our own strength! Paul's prayer for the Colossians was that they would learn to lean upon the Lord and His power to live out their Christian lives.
NOTES:It’s time for a little tough love. I’ve been thinking a lot about the situation we’re in right now. Unfortunately, I don’t think we can wait for things to return to normal or to get to the “new normal.” The new normal is here and will be here for the foreseeable future. Because of this, I think it’s important for couples to continue planning their weddings based on our current reality. Plan as if there will still be social-distancing guidelines in place. That should be your Plan A at the moment. If things open up and everyone is comfortable gathering in large groups and traveling to your wedding, then great. Then your Plan B can take place.As a planner, it’s better to plan for the worst and hope for the best. That definitely applies to the situation we’re in right now.
The 4 Phase Cycle Podcast with Zesty Ginger || Hormone Balance | Women's Health | Mindset
In today’s episode, Megan and Dr. Alex talk about DNRS (Dynamic Neural Retraining System) and other limbic system retraining programs. zestyginger.com/DNRS They share their experience with the program as well as how our current situation with the coronavirus is causing many of us to be in limbic system loops. This podcast episode is sponsored by Microbalance health products - The creator of EC3 Mold solution concentrate, laundry additive, Mold Screening Test Plates (and even EC3 candles to help reduce mold and mycotoxin levels in the indoor air!). Notes: It has been interesting to see the reaction to the coronavirus to people who are dealing with this kind of invisible thing that we feel threatened by. I think I would be in a different place right now if I didn’t have the tools from DNRS and have dealt with a similar type of thing with mold. And because of this, Dr. Alex and I wanted to share our experience with it and make you aware of it if it might be a good fit for you. I bet there is going to be a huge need for DNRS in the coming months, as many people are entering a highly reactive limbic system loop because they are in a place where they do not feel their environment is safe. Once this happens, we start to react to everything. Sounds, foods, supplements and the biggest trigger for many is smells and chemicals... For those of us who have dealt with mold, lyme, chronic pain, autoimmunity or right now in the midst of the cornovirus quarantine, you probably can relate to how strong chemicals, air fresheners, perfumed detergents and the link can really throw your body into a tailspin. Headaches, dizziness, brainfog to rashes. This is why we have partnered with a company like MicroBalance Health Products. Now, more than ever, we are trying to help people to understand the value of using EC3 in their homes as part of an overall mold and bacterial maintenance protocol to reduce fungal, viral, and bacterial antigens. We feel that using products that do not work against your body's natural defense mechanisms and trigger your limbic system is really important right now. is the way to go right now with COVID-19. It is a scary and uncertain time, but prevention should be the name of the game. According to the EPA, the protocol for using citric acid for disabling the Coronavirus you would spray or apply the EC3 Mold Solution to a surface and allow it to stay in contact for 5 minutes before wiping or could just allow it to air dry. Treat shoes before going inside, treat upholstered furniture, spray shopping bags, spray surfaces, spray the air. It is perfectly safe to breathe in.

This week, Chris and Brandon run down some of the best stuff they've found on YouTube. They also have an actual work topic from a listener suggestion: Most managers do one-on-one meetings, but they vary wildly in quality. What distinguishes a good "1:1 meeting" from a bad one? What do we wish our managers would ask?

Henry VI Part 2 deals with the immediate lead-up to the Wars of the Roses, with court intrigue and tons of backstabbing that results in the First Battle of St. Albans in 1455. Henry VI was an ineffectual king in the actual historical record, and Shakespeare's Henry is that to a 'T'---cuckolded by his wife and goaded into a civil war by his ill-seeming advisers, Henry's eventual downfall is telegraphed quite clearly in this play. He's surrounded by a cast of characters, from his various Dukes and Lords to his own wife, Queen Margaret, to his enemy Richard, Duke of York, to the rebel Jack Cade, who set wheels in motion toward their own separate goals that Henry could not stop on his best day. The lack of leadership from the throne leads to a power vacuum and shows the danger of "vaulting ambition" in the hands of men (and women) of loose morals. Our discussion today touches on the various characters, the source and types of power---be it from kings or "The Commons"--- and the violent nature of this installment, as well as the general strengths of this play (our favourite of the minor tetralogy). And then, in Marriage Counselling this episode, The Bicks debate the topic: Who is the protagonist, the hero, the "good guy" in Henry VI Part 2? Notes: It was not an Admiral from Star Wars that Lindsay thought Henry VI resembled; it was Grand Moff Tarkin. (Lindsay will commence with the cone of shame now...)

The law was given by Moses in the Old Testament. - God sent His Son in the New Testament full of grace and truth. We can’t do enough to please God. - If you trust in the law, there is striving and work, but in grace there is favor and rest. - No longer obligated to strive but privileged to rest. Perfect love cast out all fear. - Because you are saved, you will endure to the end.

Speaker: Vince Klassen and Josh Symonds I asked Josh, my co-speaker this week, if he'd ever hurt someone and he immediately told this story. "There is this lady I work with, she is a great lady and a good friend. One day we were all together with our friends and this lady was having a birthday. And someone asked, how old are you? And so she announced her age, '42'. And I said, 'You're only 42?!?' The room went completely silent and the subtext hanging in the room was 'you look way older than 42'. I remember her looking over at me, and her eyes met mine, and it was like I could see inside of her for a second and I saw the deep hurt my comment had caused..." How do you fix that?? Really, how do we fix things when we have hurt someone? And how do we know when we have fixed it? I think our spiritual ancestors knew something about this and we are going to explore that this week. Notes: It is neurologically impossible for partners to set the record straight. The unrelenting attempt at reconstruction of a traumatizing event is itself retraumatizing. In addition, intense and repeated dyadic dysregulation is traumatizing and leads to threat-related psychobiological reorganization within and between partners (Charney, 2004). Memory undergoes a reconsolidation process, whereby visual and auditory reactivating cues associated with earlier dysregulated events become reintegrated “into an ongoing perceptual and emotional experience and become part of a new memory” that is contextualized around fear and connected with inhibitory avoidance mechanisms (Charney, 2004, p. 207). Thus couples cannot adequately regulate by trying to reconstruct past events. Attempts at repair must also fail as long as both partners believe that recall of such events is possible. The therapist should instead attend to the dysregulation occurring in the here and now. - Stan Tatkin (Wired for Love) http://www.amazon.ca/Wired-Love-Understanding-Attachment-Relationship/dp/1608820580/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1457374606&sr=8-1&keywords=wired+for+love “The reparation offering seems at first glance to be restricted to offenses against the property of God, either his sancta or his name. It reflects, however, wider theological implications. The noun asam ‘reparation, reparation offering’ is related to the verb asam ‘feel guilt’, which predominates in this offering and in the purification offering as well. This fact bears ethical consequences. Expiation by sacrifice depends on two factors: the remorse of the worshiper (verb asam) and the reparation (noun asam) he brings both to man and God to rectify his wrong. This sacrifice, however, strikes even deeper ethical roots. If someone falsely denies under oath having defrauded his fellow, subsequently feels guilt and restores the embezzled property and pays a 20-percent fine, he is then eligible to request of his deity that his reparation offering serve to expiate his false oath. Here we see the Priestly legists in action, bending the sacrificial rules in order to foster the growth of individual conscience. They permit sacrificial expiation for a deliberate crime against God (knowingly taking a false oath) provided the person repents before he is apprehended. Thus they ordain that repentance converts an intentional sin into an unintentional one, thereby making it eligible for sacrificial expiation.
