Episode Intro: Dear listeners of the Female Guides Requested Podcast, Happy Wednesday, and Happy Lunar New Year of the Snake! This is your host Ting Ting from Las Vegas. Today, we have Izzy Lazarus as our guest. I've known Izzy for a while, but it wasn't until last fall that I finally got to meet her in person when she came to Red Rock for her AMGA Rock Guide Exam. I knew I had to have her on the show. Izzy grew up in NYC, playing hockey, skateboarding, and finding a connection with the ocean. Her mountain pursuits began with a pre-orientation backpacking trip in the thick Vermont woods, and she's been hooked ever since. Courses in rock and ice climbing and outdoor leadership led her to work at the Colorado Outward Bound School after college. Izzy spent several years working multi-week climbing, mountaineering, backpacking, and backcountry skiing courses, both domestically and abroad. In 2017, she moved to the Tetons to work as an alpine and backcountry ski guide. Between Teton seasons, she traveled and worked in the Southwest desert region and various peaks in the Northwest and Cascades. Several years later, life took her back to Vermont to work for the UVM Outdoor Programs Dept and guide on the side. Izzy has a passion for adventure that is only surpassed by her love of education, teaching, building connections with people from around the world, and cooking! Izzy is a Certified Rock Guide, Assistant Splitboard Guide, and Apprentice Alpine Guide. We talked about Izzy's different transitions in life, from a big city to the great outdoors, from seasonal guiding to a full-time job. We discussed what ignited these transitions, how she managed the changes, and what she learned from her experiences. Izzy always seems to have a positive outlook on life and genuinely cares about the people around her, wanting to learn from them. Izzy's energy and positive attitude towards life are truly radiant. I had so much fun chatting with her, and I bet you'll enjoy our conversation too.

1st day at fertility clinic intern learns lesson in business..By thomas_dean. Subscribe & listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. When I arrived at the Western Avenue Fertility Clinic to begin my first shift at 4:30 AM, I was surprised to find the oversized closet that housed the locker room already abuzz. Although I, forewarned that I must undress and shower to enter the facility, had my auburn hair cut short, I was unprepared for the scene of women packed into the right side of the locker room. I was barely able to hear the security officer's directions over the din of high-pitched voices cackling. The dozen or so women, mostly 40ish or older, crammed in together, were busy undressing and stowing their clothes in lockers on their side of the room.Eek! I almost freaked out. I was a college intern in a fertility clinic. These women, paunches hanging, most of them twice my age, wouldn't their appearance discourage nubile young women from inseminating themselves? The ladies faced their lockers chatting among themselves oblivious to the naked men, on the other side of the room idly standing by. Game, I sighed, the game calls.Pushing my way through the bodies packed together, I nearly passed out from the bouquet of perfumes rising from half naked bodies before I reached my assigned locker. "The new girl?" asked the bare-chested lady to my right. "I'm `Rory, short for Aurora and that slut, she's," Rory pointed to the lady on my left who was bending over to remove her panties, "Astra short for Astarte."Forcing a smile, I tried not to stare at her shaven pubis.Smiling back at me, Astra explained, "My parents were into mythology. Astarte is the goddess of love. Appropriate for St Valentine's Day?" She paused. "As the daughter of the moon goddess, Astarte was granted the crescent moon for her symbol.""So," Rory exclaimed, "reporting in this early, you're caught between night and day." When I looked over my shoulder at the naked men, Rory assured me, "Oh, they're not in cock-blockers but still harmless."Shaking her head, Astra interjected, "It's the law. We have to live with.""During my time in school," I replied as I removed my top, "we needed accustom ourselves to undressing in front of drooling guys.""Ah, equality reigns," Rory sighed, "Allow me," Rory requested permission to unhook my bra, "Gender equality means the employer doesn't have to pay for separate locker rooms for men and women.""But, we can't fault our employer on that score," Astra interjected as she swept the unhooked bra off my shoulders and flung it in my locker, "You'll see Dr. Velour in here, bare to the bone, prancing to the showers before she does her rounds.""And you can feel her beady black eyes upon you whenever she's around," griped Rory."If you can't exclude men from the ladies' locker," I chuckled hobbled on one foot to remove my sneakers, "There is the hope real men might control the occasional perv."Raising her penciled eyebrows, Rory snickered, "Not to worry. These guys are more embarrassed than we are. We count on them remaining hypnotized by our beauty," she wiggled her body, "while we get ready for the herd to race, like cattle on the trail, for the shower.""Judging by swollen schlongs," I looked over my shoulder as I planted a hand on Rory's bare shoulder for balance to step out of my dungarees, "I might think not.""Actually, judging by their bulging eyes, we count on that," Rory snickered. Placing a hand on my bare shoulder, leaning into me to whisper, "We put a show in the shower for the guys. Just play along. It's fun to watch them react. Are you a-game?""A-game! Rub-A-Dub-Dub! Slinging soap in the shower," I nervously quipped, "should be good clean fun.""Huh!" Rory snorted, "just clean fun. Yeah.""Hurry, along," urged Astra, standing behind me, "the cleaning uniform, large frock and trousers, is the same for both—eh all sexes. We like to get the pants so that the guys are left in frocks sans culottes.""Think of it," Rory smiled, "it's the race for the pants in the battle of the sexes."Then Rory and Astra grabbed each of my arms. Out of the locker stepping onto the cold steel of the catwalk, I felt that same tingle that I felt earlier with Jerry. There's a certain excitement in racing naked stampeding like cattle. Could it be the exaltation of freedom, violating social norms? I wondered.On the passageway I melded into a herd of bare breasts bobbing and bare bubbly butts bouncing which bolted across the cold steel bridge toward the bright light radiating off the tiles of the shower.At the entrance to the shower, a tall thin girl named Doulchia in a two-piece reduced the stampeding cows to a line of contented calves, awaiting assignment to a spigot. "My task," Doulchia rang out an order in singsong as she arranged a line along the railing, "it is decreed, to corral the bare ass, make them pay heed."Running with the pack had an advantage. I didn't think. I didn't look at the others in the horde. Now, on edge, I nervously looked at the other women. All pubis were hairless.I restrained myself from shrieking when Rory grabbed my attention by gently rubbing my back. "Good," Rory told me, "you cut your hair short. It dries faster. Consider clipping your muff."Aghast, I struggled to thank her.Sorting out the dozens of naked women for use of a few showerheads, Doulchia rang out her rhyme, "The shower managed skillfully, for maximum efficiency, in planning activity, for rub-a-dub-dub with dignity, three heads fitted, under the same spigot."As I came up to Doulchia, Rory chided her, "putting your bottom in a thong took away two panels for ..""I lost two pockets," Doulchia cracked in a lyrical voice, "but I still have the sockets, to stow your deposits."I looked from Rory to Astra for a clue. "Ugh," Rory grunted, "Nurses and aides get first choice on the best customers anyway."I was pleased that Doulcia, the tall thin girl in charge of the shower, placed me under a spigot with my locker-mates, Rory and Astra. Pointing to a spigot, Doulchia intoned, "Rub-a-dub-dub, watch for the hubbub, three for a scrub."Three of us found ourselves under a spigot. "Hands up," Rory roared an order. Up to the mindless game of splashing around, I mechanically complied. As Rory lathered under my arms down my sides to my butt, she whispered, "We need to move quickly. We're caught between night and day. You have to handle Astra."Back turned to me, Astra raised her arms. Her shaven armpits had little nubbies where hair follicles had been removed. As I worked down her soft flesh, a sudden tingle up my spine inspired the remark, "electrostatic," I exclaimed, "yet so different from touching a man."I know what happened even though I can't explain why. My body took charge. I had never intended to have found my fingers roaming from the pillowy underside of her breasts down her stomach to the smooth flesh of her mound. In response, Astra, leaning backwards into my breasts, engaged me."Reverse," Rory abruptly ordered. We jumped in unison to about face. Snickering at the men, Rory muttered, "just watch the bouncing boobs."I tended to Rory as Astra caressed my breasts with a slick soapy fluid. Expanding circular motions probing downward from my nipples brought her fingers across my belly and lower abdomen to my vaginal lips. I moistened the ruby red rim of my mouth with my tongue. I had never been disloyal to Jerry from the time I met him. Why were my own greedy fingers probing Rory's vagina pulling her back into me? Was it just a game? I was close to cumming when Rory ordered, "Enough Rub-a-dub-dub. Show's over. Quick rinse off."With the sting of a swat on my wet butt, Rory assured me, "It's only a show." Invited to look over at the guys, I laughed. Their eyes transfixed, the guys stood by, schlongs effervescing. "Works all the time," Rory quipped as we passed by the guys to towel off, "Game set and match!"Claiming the cleaning uniform's pants, Astra chanted, "We get the pants," Astra laughed, "and the guys get the lacy underpants."Descending the long staircase into the sub-surface gym, Rory advised, "we usually don't have much in the gym besides spraying disinfectant, wiping down the equipment and mopping the floor.""Oops," Astra interjected, "not to forget cleaning Dr. Velour's office."As we wiped down the exercise equipment, Astra explained, "we usually don't find anything gross. Guys, whether employees or donors; must wear an athletic supporter in the gym. That should be sufficient to sop up any emissions.""Laundry," Rory smirked peering into a circular clothing bin and waiving off the stink, "has to deal with any ugh," her face contorted "man goo."Looking toward the pool with a look of disgust, Rory commented, "The guys swim nude in the pool. Fortunately, the guys in maintenance have to clean the slime over there."Returning to street level to pass through to clean the treatment rooms, we were required to strip and shower. "You may bemoan, Subject to inspection, at change of zone, More Rub-a-dub-dub, for your protection, crammed into the tub, to prevent infection.."Standing naked, shivering, arms criss-crossed over my breasts, I waited with Rory and Astra for assignment to a spigot. Ready to assign us to a spigot, Doulchia, pointing to a spigot, exclaimed, "to scrub, bacteria insidious, a good rub-a-dub-dub, fastidious."Rory held her palms out as if in question. To the unvoiced inquiry, Doulchia simply shook her head. A brazen look on her face, disbelief creeping into her voice, Rory pleaded, "nothin` on Valentine's Day?" Looking toward me, Doulchia nodded. Rory protested, "She's just got over the shock of a little rub-a-dub.""Damn!" Astra complained, "early bird men, cock unblocked, dangling free, are good tippers."Doulchia laughed, "Don't huff, some guys get a rush, from a muff, that is plush."After a quick shower, we donned frocks and thongs to enter the male treatment rooms. The room selected to begin looked like a normal medical treatment room, except Rory explained it had a hitching post, a simple pillar, 5' feet high by 2' feet wide in the center of the tiled floor instead of an examination table. "Fire plug shaped, the device simulates a man crunching a female against the wall. This is the Customer's prime choice of fantasy," Rory commented."Each room is equipped with a visor. Unlike the old-fashioned fertility clinics," Rory explained, "we don't hand out girly pictures. This shield," Rory held the visor, darkened like sunglasses as she wiped it with disinfectant, "draws the guy into the experience. It presents him with a vivid virtual sexual encounter.""Dr. Velour designed the device and scripted the fantasies herself," Astra interjected. "It's set for the introduction.""When the subject dons the visor, he's drawn into a different reality. His imagination overrides the intellect. The fantasy becomes a reality in his mind. Here try it out," Rory offered it to me. "We'll start cleaning up the room."As Rory nodded to Astra to begin spritzing the room with disinfectant, I hesitantly held the visor in my hands, undecided whether to put it on.Turning to me, Astra noted, "It's just like a video game, with the plus that you'll explore Dr. Velour's vision, a female spin on a male fantasy."I looked around the room. A pungent odor of disinfectant rose as Rory began to hum a gentle tune as pushed the mopped across the white tiled floor and Astra wiped down the table and cabinets."For the cause of research," I sighed as I tentatively donned the visor holding my hands at its edges ready to flip it off my head. The sounds of chatting passersby in the corridor faded away, along with Rory's sweet singsong and the swoosh of her mop and the pungent odor of an ammonia-based disinfectant.Veiled in the shield, I found myself alone in the examining room. On the visor I envisioned Doulchia. Her two-piece gone, a ghostly counterpart of Doulchia appeared in my vision clad in a starched white nurse's uniform enter the room with a tall carrot red topped naked male subject, thick red hair hung from almost every inch of the subject's body, except his freckled lower abdomen and butt. His schlong hung prominently against a fur free crotch and nuts.After securing the subject's feet to the floor in front of the post, then, donning gloves, Doulchia's ethereal presence reached into hitching post and pulled out a sleeve and secured the man's schlong. "A guy's imagination won't suffice," The specter of Doulchia's phantom explained, "to reach a level of excitation, requires a device, to provide physical stimulation."His schlong secured, Doulchia's spiritual presence, locking the red-haired man's arms around the pillar, noted "the pillar is a soft and rubbery, delightful to his touch, a cozy 91 degree,, tempting so much, drawing him into her clutch."The image in the visor of the subject hitched to the post faded away into swirls of green, yellow and red colors which settled into the apparition of a figure, a man perhaps, in an embrace with a fire-plug shaped pillar. Doulchia's voice as the swirling colors warmed from green to yellow and yellow to red and red to a deep crimson. "Thermographic images dazzle," Doulchia's illusion continued her lecture, "by the intensification, of the subject's arousal, with increasing stimulation."When the colors dissolved, the subject was gone. In front of me appeared Astra soft pale body bare but for a micro thong damming her love canal. The extra fat disappeared from her belly; her small breasts floated like globules on her chest; her nipples erect. To her right stood Rory, pendulous boobs, nude, her crotch hairless. On her left, were two males one with his genitalia wrapped up in the cock block; the other hanging free."But Rory and Astra shouldn't be here," I protested, "They're supposed to be cleaning."The apparition of Doulchia re-appeared in her nurse's uniform between Rory and Astra on her right and the men on her left. "Your co-workers about their task, Stand in contrast, to your fantasy, here we broadcast, only what you fancy.""What now?" I asked.Dulchia's phantasm smiled, "Sing a sweet song, for the pair you select, to entertain, playing ping pong, on the subject's brain.""Huh?" I was taken by surprise.The image of Doulchia chanted a clarification, "In your vision, time for a decision, a pair to cuddle, two by two division, your preference for a couple?"The question hung. I chose Rory and Astra—or the images of them to entertain the Red-haired subject.

In deze podcast gaan David Boerstra en Sanae Orchi diep in op de hedendaagse informatieoorlog, waarin feiten, gebeurtenissen en informatie doelbewust worden verdraaid om het gedrag van de bevolking te beïnvloeden. Te midden van een tijdperk waarin de waarheid gemakkelijk wordt vervormd, stellen ze de vraag: hoe vinden we nog de waarheid? Ze bespreken de eeuwenoude verdeel-en-heersstrategie en hoe we steeds vatbaarder worden door technologische ontwikkelingen.De rol van nieuwe (alternatieve) media wordt kritisch besproken, met aandacht voor de dunne lijn tussen informeren & beïnvloeden, bewust maken & programmeren. Hoe verhouden alternatieve media zich tot traditionele kanalen en hoe weten we zeker dat ze niet gewoon hetzelfde doen, maar dan vanuit een ander perspectief? Abonneer op dit kanaal om wekelijks op de hoogte te blijven van vergelijkbare boeiende inhoud!*****STEUN WIJSDOM!Waardeer je wat ik maak & bespreek?

Two weeks ago, we came from behind to beat Liverpool ahead of the international break, but a top-of-the-table clash was next on the horizon…" Original Piece by Jonathon Rogers: Invincibles this week: Chelsea nudge off top spot All quoted content uses ⁠arsenal.com⁠ as the source 

On this week's ClimateCast, Tom Heap is cooking up a storm in the kitchen.The food we eat is responsible for around a third of our emissions, so making diets greener couldn't be more essential to fight climate change. So how can consumers be nudged to make a change?Tom visits Sky's kitchen where they are labelling the carbon intensity of each dish alongside the menu they serve to their 30,000 employees. He also gets a tour of a restaurant without a bin.

In this week's episode, we dig a little deeper into the issue of "nudging," examining Cass Sunstein and Richard Thaler's idea of "libertarian paternalism," and how governments are using these tactics to manipulate their citizens.

Dave Berry is STILL not over Matt Dyson ditching him and want's to know when have you been ditched?

In a world where the internet saturates everything, where does the internet stop, and our human selves begin? Nudged and pushed by an endless stream of alerts, notifications and recommendations, our attention and money are pulled in directions that serve the interests of the platforms. The New York Times tech columnist Kevin Roose asks, are our personalities and thoughts our own, or are we becoming what the algorithms make us? Roose's keynote talk is followed by a conversation with UNSW Scientia Professor of AI, Toby Walsh.

WWIII  We are seriously on the brink of war w/ Russia and no one seems to be talking about it. Senator Rand Paul has been talking about it but he isn't very LOUD. Donald Trump however has been a massive mouthpiece for the anti-war w/ Russia movement. HEADLINE: U.S. Extends Troop Deployment in Romania, at Ukraine War's Doorstep by Lara Jakes  No matter what MSM tells you, the Russians have no want or need to go any further than Crimea. Those people ASKED and BEGGED Russia to come to their aid b/c Ukraine was bombing them for still speaking Russian and not being all in w/ Ukraine. There are around 4,000 U.S. soldiers with the 101st Airborne Division who have been stationed at the air base since last summer, including small groups of troops that frequently train right on Romania's border with Ukraine. Before that, there was a smaller contingent from the 82nd Airborne that was sent as part of a quick-response force after Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February. Hungarian Prime Minister says the West is definitely at war w/ Russia. The West is deluding itself on what it is actually doing here. One trillion dollars worth of damage on $120million GDP country. HEADLINE: EXCLUSIVE: Hunter Biden DID help secure millions in funding for US contractor in Ukraine specializing in deadly pathogen research, laptop emails reveal, raising more questions about the disgraced son of then vice president by Josh Boswell  This is why there will never be a serious investigation into Hunter Biden and Ukraine and his laptop. The Russian government held a press conference Thursday claiming that Hunter Biden helped finance a US military 'bioweapons' research program in Ukraine. Emails and correspondence obtained by Daily Mail from Hunter's abandoned laptop show the claims may well be true. Emails show Hunter helped secure millions of dollars of funding for Metabiota, a Department of Defense contractor specializing in research on pandemic-causing diseases. Defense of Democracy - in Ukraine - this is why we are there. He also introduced Metabiota to an allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas firm, Burisma, for a 'science project' involving high biosecurity level labs in Ukraine. The president's son and his colleagues invested $500,000 in Metabiota through their firm Rosemont Seneca Technology Partners.  HEADLINE: Is Anybody Telling The American People About The War? by Rod Dreher  To study a pathogen you must have the pathogen right? Who made the virus then that they were studying? Junkbond told us all of this in his series We Tested Them On Us -  Each time we developed a bioweapon, we would test them on Americans first then lie about it. AUDIO/VIDEO: Donald Trump on Ukraine - My personality kept us out of war. Putin would've never even gone in. Even now, I could save that in 24 hours. Brookings Institute - think tank - this institute should not exist unless they existed as a by definition as a Christian entity that chronicled war and promoted peace. Where are all the Presidents men? What about the 49 laboratories in Ukraine? Where are the MSM asking these tough questions? If this goes back to 2005 that means the Bush family is in on it. There is nothing that can be done outside of Divine Intervention.  Who is to say if we do Secede - they won't try to turn our little country into Ukraine? In the eyes of people getting some American Exceptionalism, we are responsible.  AUDIO/VIDEO: Pentagon Biological Weapons Program -  We are on the brink of war and no one cares. Not the average American and certainly not the average American politician.

Someone nudged me. My mother. I looked at her. She nodded ever so slightly. What did that mean? Had she discovered, from my expression, what I had been thinking? Did she know about the jewelry Gumma had left me? Had she, perhaps —  She nodded again, in the direction of the pulpit, and gave me a little nudge. The eulogy. Of course. The eulogy.     I got up. I mounted the pulpit in a fog. I looked around at the congregation of mourners. Who among these friends, relatives, and acquaintances knew the truth? Was I the only one? Or was I the last to know? I took my remarks from my pocket. I read them. I had written a little catalog of my grandmother's kindnesses, as I knew them. When I had written it, I had worried that it would be too much for me to read without breaking down. Now I found that I couldn't concentrate on it. I read, but I wasn't paying attention to what I was reading. My eyes were on the paper, but my mind was on the animated copulations of tiny ivory men and women.     Worse, I was getting excited — sexually. I was standing in the pulpit at my grandmother's funeral, reading her eulogy, and (out of sight of the mourners, thank God) clenching and relaxing my thighs, rotating my pelvis, twisting, and squirming, trying to shift my erection, which was thrust painfully up against the elastic band of my briefs, into a more comfortable position. Still reading, I reached into the side pocket of my pants, reached through the leg hole of my briefs, and pushed the tip of my penis out from under the elastic. That was better, but I was immediately seized by the fear that everyone had noticed, that they had been able to tell from some shift of my shoulders exactly what I had been doing. I scanned the congregation. They were sniffling and blubbering and dabbing their eyes and blowing their noses. I wondered whether my grandmother had imagined this moment and presented me with the problem of her eroticism as she might have presented me with one of the logical puzzles she enjoyed so much. She always wanted to make me think. She always warned me against taking things for granted, against the blindness of assumptions. Was she doing me another kindness, inviting me to solve her puzzle instead of mourning her? I wasn't sure whether to smile, or blush, or cry.     In the afternoon, after my grandmother had been buried, there was a buffet dinner at my parents' house. The afternoon passed. The crowd dwindled. My grandparents' closest friends and admirers remained through the afternoon, and on into the evening, drinking and telling stories. As the evening wore on, no one became more sentimental than my old high-school friend Mark Dorset, who, after a while, as if he'd been quite deliberately working up to a level of intoxication that would allow him to say what he had to say, took me aside and said that he had something to give me, a memento of my grandparents that he had had in his possession since my grandfather had died, three years before.     From his pocket he took what seemed to be a pocket watch. He pressed the stem, and the lid popped open. Inside were three tiny ivory figures, two women and a man, sexually entangled on a miniature bed. “Just look at that workmanship!” said Mark.     I did. Immediately, I could see that this was even better than any of the pieces my grandmother had given me. (I know now that the little trio was the best work they ever did.) In the carving of the figures, I was certain, I could recognize the work of my grandmother's hand, her fine eye, her loving touch, her sense of detail. In the smooth mechanical animation, I was certain I could recognize my grandfather's ingenuity, his fascination for the complex and puzzling, his love of impractical gadgets. I stared at the trio and their performance. My throat was tight. My eyes were wet. I was dumbfounded. I was grief-stricken. I was proud.     But I was also envious. Mark's initiation into my grandparents' secret had preceded mine. By three years. Why? Mark had a story, of course. I listened to him tell it, and while I listened I tried to wear the amused look of one who knows it all already, who has heard it all before. In truth, though, it was news to me, and it hurt to hear it from someone other than my grandparents. Why had they never told me? Why had they told Mark before me? My fear of the answers to those questions was one of the things that for so long kept me from writing this book.In Topical Guide 238, Mark Dorset considers Dorset, Mark from this episode.Have you missed an episode or two or several?You can begin reading at the beginning or you can catch up by visiting the archive or consulting the index to the Topical Guide.You can listen to the episodes on the Personal History podcast.

Hello, and welcome to Lechem Panim. It's good to have you with us today as we continue our study of the book of Acts together. But before we get into our passage today I'd like to first ask you if maybe at some time in your life you have fallen asleep at time or in a place you shouldn't have; and then maybe things got a little awkward? Nudged to Pray— At the Christian college I attended, in chapel on time, one of the students fell asleep during the preacher's message. And his buddy, noting that he was fast asleep, nudged him and said, “Hey, wake up. The preacher just called on you to pray.” And, startled awake and not yet coming to his full senses, the young man quickly stood up and began praying right there in front of several hundred other college students. Now imagine his embarrassment when he realized what had happened; and what his friend had done to him. I'm not sure they were friends after that. Now something very similar happens in our story today; only this time there are deadly consequences. And yet it gives God an extraordinary means of showing His power through the apostle Paul. Go ahead and look with me at chapter 20 of the book of Acts. You may remember from our episode last week how Paul and a group of pastors from various churches that he had helped plant are making their way towards Jerusalem with an offering for the church there. And they stop at the city of Troas, of which Luke writes in verse 6: and there we stayed seven days. And on Sunday they gather for a local evening worship service in a house likely belonging to one of the believers. They eat, have communion together, and then Paul begins teaching them. It says in… Acts 20:7 (LSB)— 7 And on the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began speaking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight. A Final Message— Now Paul knew that this would likely be his last meeting with these Christians here in Troas. And so, understandably, he preaches a longer sermon because he wants to make sure that he leaves them with as much as possible that can help them in the days ahead when they will no longer have him. And it is in the context of that prolonged message that something very unexpected happens. It says… Acts 20:8-9a (LSB)— 8 Now there were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered together. 9 And there was a young man named Eutychus sitting on the windowsill, sinking into a deep sleep. Young Man— Now the word used to describe Eutychus' age here in verse 9 (manias) [means a man from twenty-four to forty years of age.] However, the word in verse 12 (pais) means [a young child or youth. Dr. Howard Marshall, an eminent Greek scholar, says he was a “young lad of eight to fourteen years.] My son falls within that age range, and so this could have been him! Now [Since the word pais can mean “a servant,” Eutychus may have been a young man who was also a servant.] So he might very well have been weary from working hard that day. That coupled with the fact that it was late in the evening (and the possible stuffiness of the room) caused him to be very tired. Plus all those oil lamps (which is what they were) combined with a lot of people served to make the room nice and warm. It was most likely not because Paul's sermon was boring, as everyone else (including those who probably should have been watching Eutychus) seemed to be so engrossed, they don't even notice Eutychus falling asleep next to a window he could potentially fall out of. And poor Eutychus; he's trying his best to stay awake. [The tense of the Greek verb indicates that he was gradually overcome, not suddenly.] But he just can't stay awake. Now his name adds to the humor of the story because his name actually means [“lucky, fortunate.” {And so} The "many lamps" (v. 8) and long sermon likely led "Lucky" to seek air in the window {(where there was better ventilation and the cool air might help to keep him awake)}, but he fell asleep anyway]. It says in… Acts 20:9b (LSB)— And as Paul kept on talking, he sunk into that sleep and fell down from the third floor Falling Out— And so, no doubt leaning and then tipping out the window, Eutychus fell three stories to the ground below. Now I don't know if you've ever had a dream before where you are falling and you suddenly wake up. But it's terrifying!!! Well here Eutychus is, awakened by that sensation, and (to his horror) it's not a dream. He hits the ground and is killed. It says of him that he… Acts 20:9c (LSB)— fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead. All Dead, Or Just Mostly Dead— Now some of your translations may say “as dead”. And so the question obviously arises, was he completely dead or just mostly dead? Just recently I watched one of my favorite scenes in one of my family's favorite movies The Princess Bride. This scene came to my mind when I was reading this passage because in this scene a man who has died recently is being carried by his friends to somebody who they think  might be able to restore him to life; a miracle-worker by the name of Miracle Max. And when Miracle Max looks at him he says, “The good news is that he's not all-dead, just mostly dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all-dead.” What's the difference, one of the friends asks. “Well, if mostly dead, he's slightly alive. But with all-dead, there's really only one thing you can do.” What's that, asks the friend. “Go through his pockets and start looking for loose change.” All Dead— So was he “mostly dead” or “all dead”? Well, there is actually less room for misinterpretation in the Greek; as the Greek word is νεκρός, which in its adjectival form here means “dead/lifeless”. As a noun it would mean “a dead body/corpse”. And so he is picked up νεκρός/dead (not "as dead”). He has actually died. His life is in him— Now this story has a touch of humor because of the circumstances involved (and plus we know how it ends). But keep in mind what a horror this must have been to the boys mother and father, who were no doubt there; and even to Paul. I mean we don't know if it was the scream of somebody who say Eutychus fall or if it was the scream of Eutychus himself that alerted everyone. But when Paul realizes what has happened (maybe even seen it himself) he obviously stops teaching and (in horror) quickly runs down the stairs, which keep in mind ran outside the house. And it says… Acts 20:10 (LSB)— 10 But Paul went down and fell upon him, and after embracing him, he said, “Do not be troubled, for his life is in him.” Fell Upon— Now as I was reading Paul's response here “Do not be troubled, for his life is in him.”, I was really hearing him say, “Don't worry, he's not all-dead; he's only MOSTLY dead.” And so which is it? Is Paul lying or bending the truth a little? No, because before he says that, it says first that he went down and fell upon him. And that phraseology is key because remember God had also performed resurrections through Elijah and Elisha after they had fallen upon and embraced two young boys who had died. So Paul's falling upon Eutychus was the means through which God brought him back to life, after which Paul (seeing the boy alive) then cries out “Do not be troubled, for his life is in him.” Acts 20:11-12 (LSB)— 11 And when he had gone back up and had broken the bread and eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left. 12 And they took away the boy alive, and were not a little comforted. He kept preaching!— By the way, I love how Paul went right back to preaching. And I guarantee you Eutychus was now awake the whole time; partially because of what had happened, but also because when God brings you back to life, you come back refreshed, walking and leaping and praising Him. He had a lot to be thankful for. Sacred Spots— You know, sometimes you don't know what you are thankful for until you don't have it. Now this story has a happy ending because Eutychus lived to die another day (perhaps as an aged man after having live a rich and full life). We don't know. But can you imagine being his mom or his dad that day? You know, I often worry about my kids. I'm not a put-your-kid-in-a-bubble parent, but I am very protective of my kids. And almost every day I worry about them having a Eutychus moment; losing attention for that split second; that little blip of time that can end or forever change the course of their lives. And that's compounded by the fact that I know there's no Apostle Paul to bring them back if anything like that happens to them.     Our kids and I were in a car accident now about two years ago, right near their school. Another car (not watching) veered into us and hit us very hard; every airbag in the car deployed. Airbags came out of places I didn't even know airbags could be. The one that deployed just left of my head knocked my hearing out for a little while. And after impact I (ears ringing) turned to see my kids; and I saw the fear written all over their faces. And for months afterwards, often when I would drive through that spot (now extra-cautiously), I had this kind of gut-clenching, physical reaction. Now I know we are not to live in fear; and on the other side of that I have seen so many times how God has protected them, as He did then. But I am also aware of how quickly life can change. And whenever I go through that spot I feel this overwhelming gratitude for my kids' lives; and for my life too.     There is another spot that holds similar significance to me; and I know it does to you as well. It is the site of the cross. What a horrible place to be; at the foot of a cross. And yet was there that Jesus (in such a brief window of time) gave us back everything we might have lost; eternal life in fellowship with God. I don't know what your plans are this week, but I would like to encourage you to make time to give thanks to God for saving you in that sacred place. Like these early Christians did, orient yourself around a remembrance of what God has done for you in and through Jesus. Let's do so. Amen.

Why are we so vulnerable to misinformation?How do we make better choices?Do we react to the immediacy of information or the quality of that information?Turns out, immediacy carries the day.  Worse yet, if that misinformation confirms our previously held biases or beliefs, we are even more susceptible to its influence.It all has to do with Nudge Theory; a breakthrough in Behavioral Economics that was based on the pioneering research of  two Israeli psychologists:  Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky in the 1970's that examined why people make the choices that they do.Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein developed the human bahevior patterns discovered by Kahneman and Tversky and formed them into a cohesive theory that attempts to explain human decision making in a more complete way than other theories of choice-making.In 2017, Richard Thaler won the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences for Nudge Theory.Let's look at how we can use the best of what Nudge Theory has to offer to make sure we protect ourselves from misinformation and make the decisions that enhance the quality of our lives.Where to learn more:Thaler, Richard H. 2018.

After a slight break in action, we are pleased to announce that we are back with a special bonus episode (topic chose by our Producer Mark) before we begin our next band full-studio album discography next week. Bonus Episode #6 covers the topic of "Songs that Get the Blood Going" according to our hosts. This is not a "definitive" list of the most heart throbbing, adrenaline induced tunes out there. It is simply a "unique" selection of the Top 5 songs that each of our hosts decided on over the weeks leading up to the show. The criteria was this... each of us selected 10 songs that fit the criteria and then shared them so we could all listen in preparation. The only catch was, you didn't know which 5 made the cut until we were live on air. At that point, each member sold their spiel on why they picked these 5 before we each Loved, Flushed, Bought, Nudged, or Terminated each selection resulting in a consensual Top 5 list out of all of our 40 picks. We hope you enjoy! Tune in next week as we begin our next full band studio album discography.Available at https://lightthesky.net/podcasts/bonus-episodes/songs-that-get-the-blood-going/ and on all podcast streaming platforms (just search "Light the Sky Podcast.")Follow "Light the Sky Podcast" on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook to stay up-to-date with all things LTS.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lighttheskypodcast/Twitter: https://twitter.com/LighttheSkyPod1Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LightTheSkyPodcast/

Another chance to listen to an episode that asks whether we can change our ways. Drastic change is needed to limit the increase in global temperature caused by climate change. More than two-thirds of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide result from how we live our lives. But the behaviours that drive these emissions tend to be deeply habitual and hard to shift - the way we heat our homes, what we eat and how we travel to work.

In today's episode of the podcast we're exploring what it might look like if we not only ask God questions but listen for the questions He wants to answer with us.

Drastic change is needed to limit the increase in the global temperature caused by climate change. More than two-thirds of global greenhouse gas emissions come from how we live our lives. But the behaviours that drive these emissions tend to be deeply habitual and hard to shift - the way we heat our homes, what we eat and how we travel to work. And our behavioural good intentions all too often fail to translate into action. So our climate question this week is how we can be nudged, or even shoved, to change? Guests: Elisabeth Costa, senior director, Behavioural Insights Team Erik Thulin, behavioural science lead at the Centre for Behaviour and the Environment at Rare Professor Martine Visser, behavioural economist at the University of Cape Town Mo Allie, BBC reporter in Cape Town Presented by Graihagh Jackson and Neal Razzell Produced by Alex Lewis Researched by Zoe Gelber Edited by Emma Rippon And if you've got a climate question, then email the team: theclimatequestion@bbc.com

There's an old African proverb that says “If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together: An Average Man Takes a Not-So-Average Run Across America for Veterans. On July 6, 2012, Marine Corps veteran Jamie Summerlin dipped his feet into the Atlantic Ocean in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware after running 3,452 miles in 100 days. While Summerlin's inspiring transcontinental journey to honor U.S. veterans is finished and documented in his book Freedom Run,” his mission to honor veterans is not. Today, Summerlin works through Operation Welcome Home and other nonprofit organizations to provide support for veterans. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Nudged by the bulls, Indian markets ended marginally higher on the August F&O expiry day. The S&P BSE Sensex closed at 39,113, up 39 points while the Nifty ended 9 points higher at 11,559 after a touch-and-go moment with 11,600. Tracking muted global cues, markets, which closed in the green for a fifth consecutive session on August 27, failed to hold on to gains and closed flat but with a positive bias. The market was also nervous ahead of the Jackson Hole meeting and US-China trade tensions.

The sending of an Inter-Ministerial Central Team to the state of West Bengal seems to have changed the Mamata Banerjee government’s strategy against COVID-19. Deeptiman Tiwary, who writes on India’s internal security, and Ravik Bhattacharya, who covers West Bengal, join us to speak about the political battle over the team and how it may have brought some much needed transparency in the state’s handling of the pandemic.  Then, Shubhajit Roy, who covers India’s foreign affairs, joins us to talk about how India plans to bring back thousands of citizens who are stranded abroad.

What diminishes our capacity for civility? A nudge can. What is nudging? Julie explains that often we tactics are used against us by those in power to get us to act a certain way. We often only notice a nudge once it becomes a shove; she shows how this very sentiment is being used today in Australia, for our asylum seeker policy, the people on newstart, those who receive a pension and are caught up in the wider welfare system.

Payment innovation runs at multiple speeds. Changes in how a payment is initiated happen almost every day. Payments infrastructure change is a lot slower. But it’s happening. Nudged forward by the Federal Reserve’s Faster Payment Task Force, we are seeing the launch of the first entirely new payment system in decades. Called Real Time Payments (RTP) the new system switched its first real-time payment on November 13, 2017. Built entirely around the rich payment messaging standard ISO 20022, we have a system that can carry both payment instructions and meta-data about the payment. Data rich, essentially instant, bank-fased account to account push transactions could be a game changer. Join George and Steve Ledford, Senior Vice President, Product and Strategy, at The Clearing House (TCH) as they discuss the spread of real-time payment systems around the world and take a deep dive into RTP’s operation, rules, and use cases.

I often feel God's voice speak to me in the form of a nudge - that pulling of one's heart strings, a feeling of being compelled to perform a spontaneous act of kindness. If given the opportunity to rationalize the invitation, one can easily talk themselves out of following through for a whole host of reasons that sound quite rational. But why do we hesitate, questioning our Lord? Have we not yet learned that when He makes a request of us it is always for our higher good?This show is brought to you by Talk 4 Radio (http://www.talk4radio.com/) on the Talk 4 Media Network (http://www.talk4media.com/).
