Each day is a blessing to live in the magical land called life.
The machinist occupies a special place in industry. Using a set of mechanized tools, and drawing on years of experience and vibes, they take something from raw metal to finished form. Machining was part science, part magic. A respected craft that brought pride and a good living to its many practitioners. Then in the 1950s, a revolutionary new technology sought to replace the machinist's capabilities with a string of numbers. One Japanese company arose to take the fullest advantage of this trend. In today's video, the rise of Numerical Control, CNC, and Fanuc.

Numerical symbolism in the play: the number 23 and the theme of time. Leontes arrests Hermione despite his entire court telling him he is mistaken, throws her in prison. The psychology of a conspiracy theorist: “All's true that is mistrusted.”
In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I, Rachel Wortman, delve into a topic that quietly exhausts many of us in the realms of business, leadership, and ministry: the obsession with numbers. We often find ourselves fixated on revenue goals, follower counts, and growth metrics, which, while not inherently evil, can distract us from the life in Christ we are called to live. As I reflect on my own experiences, I share how I've noticed a troubling trend where we replace the concept of fruit-bearing with numerical figures. Instead of asking ourselves who we are becoming, we become preoccupied with what we are producing. This episode marks a pivotal moment for me as I celebrate reaching 20,000 downloads of the podcast, thanks to all of you who have supported and shared it.

[Slide 1] 2025 in Review 1.) [Slide 2] The challenges of 2025 a. Sickness i. Many sicknesses throughout the year are even still floating around. ii. Bouts of hand foot and mouth, the flu, fevers, sore throats, ear infections, and even some pesky allergies. iii. You need to be made of sterner stuff to live in MI I suppose. b. Physical issues i. Cancer battles are ongoing for some. ii. We had a couple broken bones iii. Weakness for some of our aging members iv. Back issues v. Sinus pressure vi. Tooth infections vii. Poison Ivy viii. Surgeries ix. Procedures x. And many doctor visits. c. Tragic Accidents i. We know of folks who have been involved in tragic accidents where people were injured. ii. Sometimes these accidents have changed people's lives forever. iii. Sometimes these accidents have stretched the limits of what it means to forgive and to love one another. d. Wars and Rumors of Wars i. The Russia Ukraine conflict continues ii. And the middle east of course. e. House hunting i. Many have moved to new locations and even new states and have been searching for somewhere to call their own. ii. Some have found homes for themselves – others are still looking diligently. f. Long trials i. Several have heard the word cancer uttered in their diagnosis this year. ii. Many have come through radiation or chemo or both. iii. Some among us took in family members who need constant care. iv. Kathy LaForest and her ongoing battle with cancer. v. Eric Beuaman's ongoing battle with congestive heart failure. vi.

Weather i. Much closer to normal weather this year. ii. We didn't have 1 single hurricane make landfall in the US. Which is somewhat astounding. iii. Although we didn't have a white Christmas this year we have already had a couple snow storms and even had the snow stick around for quite a while. b. Numerical blessings i. Baby Jaspir Bogen ii. Baby Everett Wegner iii. Baby Leah McCue iv. Baby Loretta McCue is coming in a few short weeks. c. My Fellow American i. Chris Steary passed his test to become a US citizen this year. ii. Congrats to him. d. Audio Visual Upgrades i. We were able to upgrade our computer, projector, and soundboard for our worship services. ii. This was already in the works, and providentially the Lord saw to it that it became abundantly obvious that it was necessary after we experienced some significant technical difficulties during the service. iii. We even had to go old school with an overhead projector one week. e. Missionary blessings i. We had Eric and Cherie Daum with us at the beginning of this year for a couple months. 1. They have since gone back to Asia Pacific, purchased land, built a house, and have moved in. 2. They are still learning the local language and getting ready for a language check very soon. 3. Of course, Bernie and Sue are going back to help for an entire month. ii. We had the Lundquist's join us this year for two weeks including our Lord's Supper catered meal. iii. We also were able to help send Lucy to Senegal - which we heard about this morning. What an amazing ministry. iv. Jordan and Emily experienced heartache this year when Emilly was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. After two surgeries it appears they have gotten all of the cancer out. They will test again in a few months. The blessing here is that we have had the opportunity to provide a home for them to live in as they struggle through this time. Praise the Lord. f. Spiritual Blessings i. 4 new professions of faith this year 1. Carrigan Golab 2. Sabreana Porter 3. Waylon McLeod 4. Amanda Jansen ii. 4 baptisms this year iii. 3 New Members were added iv. We began a new Jr. Church format this year, breaking into 3 groups instead of just two. Overall, the teachers have done an amazing job and it seems as though the kids are learning a good deal. v. We began a study bible distribution project last year with a goal of insuring that every father in the church had a LSB John MacArthur study bible. We are happy to announce that only 4 of those bibles remain and most of you are benefitting from one of them. vi. As a church we have also had the opportunity to be a blessing to other organizations. 1. Classical Conversations has entered its 7th year in using our church for its campus. 2. Michigan Karate for Christ began using our building at the beginning of this year to train its students in Kenpo Karate 3. The 4h Club Rustic Ramblers began using our building this year for its meetings as well. 4. We also had two non-member weddings. 5. These have all given us opportunities to be a light to our community. g. We as a church have received the blessing of teaching – LOTS of teaching praise the Lord! i. Basics class continued this year 1. First with the financial peace university, moderated by the Stearys. 2. Then with the Basics for the Christian life study led by both Nick Galante and myself. ii. Thursday Night Prayer Group 1. We meet at 6pm via the TEAMS app. 2. Most nights we pray over our congregation and our many needs and then discuss the sermon from the previous Sunday. iii. Youth Community. 1. We have been plodding along with Youth Community this year. 2. The families who attend find great benefit to the concentrated doses of spiritual truths our children are memorizing in the Baptist Catechism and comradery around other parents struggling to teach key doctrinal truths to their kids. iv. Foundations 1. We actually made quite a good deal of progress this past year in foundations. 2. We took what was originally a 4 year goal to study the entire bible and have crammed that into a 10 year (and counting) chronological study of the scriptures. 3. We have made it to King Josiah. 4. Still this year we have finished Isaiah, began Jeremiah, almost completed 2 Kings and 2 Chronicles and will finish up Nahum in the next few weeks. v. Preaching 1. We finally finished the book of Acts this year. 2. It only took us 2 and a half years and 100 sermons – but we made it. 3. We began our study of 1 and 2 Thessalonians, of which we've made it to almost chapter 3. 4. I also preached a Puritan sermon for Thanksgiving from Thomas Manton. vi. BSF 1. Although not affiliated with our church directly, Bible Study Fellowship has a long history of being a great way for people to gather and study the bible together. 2. Many of our church members are either leading or participating in BSF this year in their study of Ezekiel, Daniel, Ezra, and Esther. vii. There were several more bible studies and gatherings – most of which are a couple or few people who gather regularly to study the scriptures. h. Church finances held i. Even though we had a slight decrease in giving – we still met budget by spending less than we brought in. ii. This is in addition to doing some minor repairs to the parking lot and replacing much of our audio-visual equipment. i. Elders have been challenged this year i. I put this in the blessing category because it is indeed a blessing to see the Lord work through the plurality of qualified leaders He has given you for this church. ii. We have wrestled with questions this year, that we did not expect. iii. We have been baffled, confused, grieved, overjoyed, and frustrated. iv. We have wept together, tears of grief and tears of joy. v. We have laughed together. vi. We have even begun laying plans for developing future Elders. vii. Although no one ever said being an Elder would be easy – this year it was abundantly clear. viii. Pray for your Elders. I would guess that about 75% of our job is held in confidence and is never presented in any way to any of you. ix. Give your Elders the benefit of the doubt too. Should they say or do something that seems egregious… it probably has another explanation. If someone comes to you suggesting that the Elders are doing something crazy – perhaps you should either dismiss what they said or call an Elder up and get it straight from them. x. This year especially – let me remind you – we have labored for your souls. xi. Even if it seems like we don't get much done… know that you only see about 25% of what is happening around here. xii. Remember… we could always go slower.
Every thing is checks and balances.

Quick—which is more dangerous: the thing that kills 50,000 Americans every year, or the thing that kills 50? Your brain says the first one, obviously. The data says you're dead wrong. Heart disease kills 700,000 people annually, but you're not terrified of cheeseburgers. Shark attacks kill about 10 people worldwide per year, but millions of people are genuinely afraid of the ocean. Your brain can't do the math, so you worry about the wrong things and ignore the actual threats. And here's the kicker: The people selling you fear, products, and policies? They know your brain works this way. They're counting on it. You're not bad at math. You're operating with Stone Age hardware in an Information Age world. And that gap between your intuition and reality? It's being weaponized every single day. Let me show you how to fight back. What They're Exploiting Here's what's happening: You can instantly tell the difference between 3 apples and 30 apples. But a million and a billion? They both just feel like "really big." Research from the OECD found that numeracy skills are collapsing across developed countries. Over half of American adults can't work with numbers beyond a sixth-grade level. We've become a society that can calculate tips but can't spot when we're being lied to with statistics. And I'm going to be blunt: if you can't think proportionally in 2025, you're flying blind. Let's fix that right now. Translation: Make the Invisible Visible Okay, stop everything. I'm going to change how you see numbers forever. One million seconds is 11 days. Take a second, feel that. Eleven days ago—that's a million seconds. One billion seconds is 31 years. A billion seconds ago, it was 1994. Bill Clinton was president. The internet was just getting started. That's how far back you have to go. Now here's where it gets wild: One trillion seconds is 31,000 years. Thirty-one THOUSAND years. A trillion seconds ago, humans hadn't invented farming yet. We were hunter-gatherers painting on cave walls. So when you hear someone say "What's the difference between a billion and a trillion?"—the difference is the entire span of human civilization. This isn't trivia. This is the key to seeing through manipulation. Because when a politician throws around billions and trillions in the same sentence like they're comparable? Now you know—they're lying to your face, banking on you not understanding scale. The "Per What?" Weapon Here's the trick they use on you constantly, and once you see it, you can't unsee it. A supplement company advertises: "Our product reduces your risk by 50%!" Sounds incredible, right? Must buy immediately. But here's what they're not telling you: If your risk of something was 2 in 10,000, and now it's 1 in 10,000—that's technically a 50% reduction. But your actual risk only dropped by 0.01%. They just made almost nothing sound like everything. Or flip it around: "This causes a 200% increase in risk!" Terrifying! Except if your risk went from 1 in a million to 3 in a million, you're still almost certainly fine. This is how they play you. They show you percentages when absolute numbers would expose them. They show you raw numbers when rates would destroy their argument. Your defense? Three words: "Per what, exactly?" 50% of what baseline? 200% increase from what starting point? That denominator is where the truth hides. Once you start asking this, you'll see the manipulation everywhere. Let's Catch a Lie in Real Time Okay, let's do this together right now. I'm going to show you a real manipulation pattern I see constantly. Headline: "4 out of 5 dentists recommend our toothpaste!" Sounds pretty convincing, right? Let's apply what we just learned. First—per what? Four out of five of how many dentists? If they surveyed 10 dentists and 8 said yes, that's technically 80%, but it's meaningless. Second—what was the actual question? Turns out, they asked dentists to name ALL brands they'd recommend, not which ONE was best. So 80% mentioned this brand... along with seven other brands. Third—scale: There are 200,000 dentists in the US. They surveyed 150. That's 80% of 0.075% of all dentists. See how fast that falls apart? That's the power of asking "per what? The Exponential Trap This is where your intuition doesn't just fail—it catastrophically fails. And it's costing people everything. Grab a piece of paper. Fold it in half. Twice as thick, no big deal. Fold it again. Four times. Okay. Keep going. Most people think if you could fold it 42 times, maybe it'd be as tall as a building? No. It would reach the moon. From Earth. To the moon. That's exponential growth, and your brain cannot comprehend it. Here's why this matters in your actual life: You've got a credit card with $5,000 on it at 18% interest. You think "I'll just pay the minimum, I'll catch up eventually." Your brain treats this like a linear problem. It's not. It's exponential. That $5,000 becomes $10,000 faster than you can possibly imagine, and then $20,000, and suddenly you're drowning. Or retirement: Starting to save at 25 versus 35 doesn't feel like a huge difference. Ten years, whatever. But exponential growth means that ten-year head start could be worth 2-3 times more money when you're 65. When you hear "doubles every," "grows by X percent," or "compounds"—stop. Your intuition just became your enemy. Rapid Reality Checking You don't need a calculator to spot lies. You need a sanity check that takes ten seconds. I'm going to give you the fastest BS detector I know: Round brutally. 47 million becomes 50 million. 8.7% becomes 10%. Precision is the enemy of speed. Find the zeros. Is this thousands, millions, billions? Get the ballpark right first. Do the rough math. What's 7% of 50 million? Well, 10% is 5 million, so 7% is about 3.5 million. Done. Close enough to catch the lie. Smell test it. Someone claims a new app has a billion users after launching last month? That's one in eight humans on Earth. Really? I use this every single day now. News article, social media post, advertisement—ten seconds and I know if someone's lying to me. You're not trying to be exact. You're trying to be un-foolable. Don't Make These Mistakes Before we go further, let me save you from three traps I see people fall into. First: Don't become the conspiracy theorist who distrusts ALL numbers. Sometimes 50% really is 50%. The goal is healthy skepticism, not paranoid cynicism. Second: Don't weaponize this to win petty arguments. "Actually, you didn't do 50% of the dishes"—nobody likes that person. Third: Don't assume you're now immune to manipulation. These are tools, not shields. Stay humble. Smart people get fooled all the time—they just recover faster. Putting It All Together Let me show you how these four techniques work as a system. A tech company announces: "We've tripled our user base to 3 million, growing 200% annually, and reduced complaints by 90%!" Watch this: Scale check: 3 million users. In social media? That's tiny. Instagram has 2 billion. Context matters. Per what? Tripled from what starting point? If they went from 50,000 to 3 million, that's actually 60x growth—why understate it? And 90% reduction from how many complaints? Ten to one? Who cares. Exponential check: 200% annual growth is explosive... and unsustainable. What happens when they hit market saturation next quarter? Quick estimate: If they have 3 million users and the market is 300 million potential users, they've captured 1%. Still lots of room to grow—or lots of room for competitors. See how these stack? Your Turn—Right Now Okay, pause this video. Seriously, pause it. Open your news app or social media feed. Look at the first three posts with numbers in them. Now run them through the test: What's the scale? Per what? Is it exponential? Does it pass the smell test? I'll give you 60 seconds. Go. Done? Did you find manipulation? I bet you found at least one. Comment below what you discovered—I genuinely want to know what you're seeing out there. The Real Stakes Let me tell you what just happened. You learned five techniques. But you actually learned something bigger: You learned that your intuition about numbers is systematically broken, and people in power know it and exploit it. Remember the opening? The reason you're more afraid of sharks than heart disease isn't random. Media companies know fear drives clicks, and rare dramatic events trigger your brain differently than common statistical threats. So they show you the sharks, not the cheeseburgers. They're not smarter than you. They're just counting on you not checking the math. We're entering an era of AI-generated stats, algorithmic manipulation, and deepfake data. Your ability to think proportionally isn't just about making better decisions anymore. It's about knowing what's real. The people who can't tell a million from a billion will be led by people who can. And those people? They're fine with you staying confused. So what are you going to be—the one doing the math, or the one getting played? If you want to keep sharpening these skills, this is episode 7 in the Thinking 101 series.

Growing a healthy church isn't just about numbers. In fact, if you focus on numbers, you may up further away than when you started. It's about discipleship and faithfulness to the mission. So, how do you cultivate health no matter what size your church is.
The New Apostolic Reformation is a dangerous deception masquerading as revival, elevating human leaders and experiences above the authority of Scripture and leading many astray from true biblical faith.

In this second episode on understanding Kaddish from the Prayer Podcast series, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the ancient prayer's origins, composed in Aramaic by the Men of the Great Assembly during the Babylonian exile. Kaddish serves to bring "Hashem awareness" into the lower worlds, bypassing angelic interference since angels don't understand Aramaic. Originally just a half-Kaddish recited seven times daily by the prayer leader, it has expanded to include versions for mourners, siyum completions, and gravesides. The core purpose is Kiddush Hashem—sanctifying God's name—ranging from ultimate martyrdom (like Rebbe Akiva or Rabbi Elchanan Wasserman) to everyday acts of prioritizing God's will over personal desires, such as reciting Kaddish or making Kiddush on Shabbos.Kaddish acts as a spiritual elevator between the four kabbalistic worlds: Asiyah (action, morning blessings), Yetzirah (formation, Pesukei Dezimra), Beriah (creation, Shema blessings), and Atzilus (emanation, Amidah). It solidifies God's presence in each world before transitioning, with no Kaddish between Beriah and Atzilus to avoid interrupting redemption and prayer. Responding with full intent to "Amen, Yehei Shemei Rabba" can nullify heavenly decrees by restoring sanctity removed through sin. The prayer's structure magnifies God's name across all worlds, with congregational responses affirming redemption, peace, and Mashiach's arrival. Numerical symbolism abounds: four opening words reflect God's four-letter name, 10 words spell it out further, and 28 letters/words equal "koach" (strength), emphasizing empowerment through praise.Ultimately, Kaddish empowers every individual to achieve greatness by bringing godliness into daily life, congregations, and the world. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes retraining ourselves to respond with focus, turning routine recitations into acts of profound devotion. The episode concludes with a teaser for next week's dive into Pesukei Dezimra, the verses of praise that "prune" spiritual blockages._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #41) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

In this second episode on understanding Kaddish from the Prayer Podcast series, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the ancient prayer's origins, composed in Aramaic by the Men of the Great Assembly during the Babylonian exile. Kaddish serves to bring "Hashem awareness" into the lower worlds, bypassing angelic interference since angels don't understand Aramaic. Originally just a half-Kaddish recited seven times daily by the prayer leader, it has expanded to include versions for mourners, siyum completions, and gravesides. The core purpose is Kiddush Hashem—sanctifying God's name—ranging from ultimate martyrdom (like Rebbe Akiva or Rabbi Elchanan Wasserman) to everyday acts of prioritizing God's will over personal desires, such as reciting Kaddish or making Kiddush on Shabbos.Kaddish acts as a spiritual elevator between the four kabbalistic worlds: Asiyah (action, morning blessings), Yetzirah (formation, Pesukei Dezimra), Beriah (creation, Shema blessings), and Atzilus (emanation, Amidah). It solidifies God's presence in each world before transitioning, with no Kaddish between Beriah and Atzilus to avoid interrupting redemption and prayer. Responding with full intent to "Amen, Yehei Shemei Rabba" can nullify heavenly decrees by restoring sanctity removed through sin. The prayer's structure magnifies God's name across all worlds, with congregational responses affirming redemption, peace, and Mashiach's arrival. Numerical symbolism abounds: four opening words reflect God's four-letter name, 10 words spell it out further, and 28 letters/words equal "koach" (strength), emphasizing empowerment through praise.Ultimately, Kaddish empowers every individual to achieve greatness by bringing godliness into daily life, congregations, and the world. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes retraining ourselves to respond with focus, turning routine recitations into acts of profound devotion. The episode concludes with a teaser for next week's dive into Pesukei Dezimra, the verses of praise that "prune" spiritual blockages._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #41) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!

The program begins as an evening deprogram for May 7th, 2025, following a morning deprogram that discussed the "Hinton PSYOP". The host mentions that the morning topic will likely be discussed in greater detail in the evening.Critique of James O'Keefe and Alex Jones* The host references the James O'Keefe Media Group (formerly Project Veritas).* A major announcement from O'Keefe today was described as a "big day". O'Keefe announced he was "not inclined toward self-harm" and suggested he had "very significant impact" information to share.* Alex Jones reportedly "doubled down" on this, calling it "huge, groundbreaking," and suggesting the world would change.* The information revealed was reportedly about Prince Andrew being a "perv," which the host states was already known and "nothing new".* This announcement was deemed a "major nothing burger" with "no new information".* Alex Jones reportedly deleted his tweet about it, indicating an awareness that their audience was unhappy and did not get the "outrage bait" they were promised.* The host views James O'Keefe as a "phony" and "fake outside independent journalist" whose reveals are merely "political scandal and drama". Project Veritas is criticized for never discussing "crisis actors," "fakery," or "media fakery".* Following 2020, it became clear to the host that mainstream and independent media organizations are not interested in revealing the "truth about the world stage" but are instead "in it" and not there to disrupt it.* Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson recently discussed "The Lone Gunman" episode as a famous example of predictive programming for 9/11.IPS Insider Tabloid* Esteban suggests a trading card idea and having AI make a place for news.* The host discusses the purpose of the existing "IPS insider tabloid". Although underfunded, it's described as something easy to do and getting easier with templates and AI.* The tabloid is intended to be "the sheets, the hot sheets" akin to those in the movie "Men in Black".* To the public, it will look like a tabloid, but "to those in the know," it's where the "real information" is obtained.* This is directly compared to a scene in "Men in Black" where the characters get their leads from a tabloid called the "hot sheets". The host believes this meant to be ironic scene is "100% true".* The tabloids created by IPS will "absolutely be the truth about these events," sometimes showing that events are simply "influence operations".* Phone lines are open for those who want to call in.Critiques of Beliefs and Movements* The host criticizes "death clingers" or "corpse clutchers" who were previously problematic, particularly those who would react negatively ("clutching pearls") if someone questioned the truth of a death count.* The idea of being "anti-anti" is discussed. The host states that taking an "anti-position" (e.g., anti-mainstream) will always be fallacious and prevents having a point. This structural pattern is noted as something investigated with Perplexity AI.* Perplexity AI was asked if there is a correlation between "anti-vax position and anti-geoengineering".* It's described as inaccurate to call people "chemtrail cultists"; they are actually "anti-geoengineering".* Believers in chemtrails are referred to as "chemtrail believers," "chemtrail enthusiasts," "chemtrail proponents," "chemtrail fanatics," or "chemtrail extremists".* The host expresses frustration ("done with chemtrails") and describes "chemtrail Karenism" as "off the charts".* The host's "main takeaway" is that the chemtrail movement is a "controlled opposition movement" and that believers are "victims" of a "mind control campaign".* Those who claim to believe in chemtrails are told they should not fly on airplanes, as getting on a plane knowing about chemtrails is described as a "war crime". They should be on a "no-fly list".* Discussion includes "auto disbelief," where something seen on TV is immediately dismissed as fake or CGI without sufficient information.PSYOPs and Predictive Programming* The "Hinton PSYOP" is a key topic, involving Rodney Hinton Jr., who reportedly killed a cop after his son was killed by police.* Hinton Jr. is being "lauded as a hero" by fans of Anthony Carmelo and enemies of Shiloh Hendrix.* The name "Rodney Hinton Jr." made the host wonder if Rodney King was being brought up, suggesting the name is a "code tied into Rodney King".* Rumors circulating on Twitter suggest the younger Hinton was not stealing a car but missed a payment, and it was reported as stolen. The host doesn't think this rumor is true but notes the focus is on "what people believe" rather than truth.* The situation is seen as "manufactured outrage" and part of aligning PSYOPs.* Rodney Hinton Jr. is framed to look like Luigi Mangione in pictures, wearing an orange prison vest surrounded by cops, resembling Mangione's perp walk.* The Met Gala event is linked to this, having a theme of "civil rights fashion" and "civil rights icons". Colin Kaepernick's presence is noted due to his association with the national anthem controversy ("black out bowl") and perceived symbolism as an antagonist to Trump. His association with the "1619 thing," encoded in "Leave the World Behind," is highlighted.* The host is "leaning towards" a prediction by Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones that there will be an "incendiary event", possibly something like Patriot Front being attacked. This is part of a "pattern that's emerging".* The concept of "reading the curve" from "Leave the World Behind" is mentioned in relation to predicting events.* People are seen as prone to reacting to online content, compared to "MKUltra victims".* Timed and coordinated movie releases are discussed as "predictive programming" pertaining to current influence operations. Movies like "Final Destination Bloodline," "Mickey 17," and "Captain America" are mentioned as having "pertinent messaging" and "eerie coincidental timing" with events.* "Disease X" is discussed as a coming event, framed as a "mind virus" that will justify "shutting everything down" and lead to content restraint on the internet. The arguments will be similar to those used in 2020 for "public health". This is presented as something people are looking for and will "ask and beg for it to be locked down".Numbers, Codes, and Connections* Specific dates and numbers are highlighted for their significance and recurring appearance.* A caller, Jurassic Liars, notes that the killed police officer, Henderson, was born on June 11th. This date (6-11) is noted as the time stamp Trump was supposedly shot. This is seen as a "6-11 connection" and "proof positive" of a PSYOP hoax, also serving as "foreshadowing".* Trump returning to Butler, Pennsylvania, 84 days after his ear injury ("ear clipped"), doing a moment of silence at exactly 6:11, is seen as a significant clue.* The number 84 (or 48) is noted as a consistent code, appearing in "The Boys" episode "Assassination Run" (Season 4, Episode 8).* The date 6-14 is mentioned as Trump's birthday and the date Trump first came to Hamilton County, Ohio (where the officer died).* July 13th (7-13) is linked to the 1977 Manhattan blackouts, the 2019 Manhattan blackout (which affected 42,000 people from 42nd Street, 42 years later), and the movie "How It Ends" (Seattle destruction scenario).* Trump mentioning Alcatraz is linked to the fact that three convicts escaped Alcatraz on June 11th. This aligns with a theme of "three" seen in the JFK assassination (three hobos) and Masonic ritual (three assassins).* 6-11 is interpreted as "upside down 9-11," suggesting the source of the next event might be internal domestic extremists.* The number 42 is heavily encoded into the Space Needle: 42 meters wide at the UFO, 42-second ride to the top. It's also linked to Elvis's death at 42.* 42 is seen as consistently used in SpaceX and Blue Origin, dismissed by some as a "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" reference but viewed here as misdirection. Jeff Bezos' $42 million clock is mentioned as a code.* The Space Needle opened on 4/21, which is noted as the day the Pope died.* A simulation of a nuke off the coast of Seattle is said to cause a "42 foot tidal wave". The immigration bill being called Title 42 (sounding like tidal wave) is noted.* The Space Needle's Century Project renovation cost $100 million, linking to the number 100.* The Space Needle is interpreted as a "space age obelisk symbol," like the Washington Monument (Cleopatra's needle). It's also connected to a "mushroom cloud" symbol.* The predicted event in Seattle correlates with predictive programming suggesting a "mushroom cloud". The East Palestine, Ohio train derailment produced a mushroom cloud image.* The "chop zone" in Washington State (referencing the Elvis-head-shaped rock formation) and Cleveland (area code 216, linked to Oz/Emerald City) are discussed, with a repeated theme of a "break".Elvis Connections* Elvis is connected to several events and symbols.* Austin Metcalf, killed by Anthony Carmelo, is said to look like a younger Elvis in a certain picture.* Cynthia Erivo, playing the Wicked Witch in "Wicked" (whose birthday is Elvis's birthday) and having played Jesus Christ Superstar, is linked to the "Wizard of Oz thing" and the "Emerald City craft". Both the Wicked float and an Elvis Mississippi float were at the Rose Parade. Fires occurred where the Rose Parade was, seven days after Elvis's birthday.* The Space Needle has "so many Elvis connections".* Elvis's death at 42 is linked to the number 42 encoded into the Space Needle.* A horse named Needles won two out of three Triple Crown races the year Elvis "took the needle" (referencing drugs). Two out of three is connected to 666.* Elvis used the "Space Odyssey" theme (Also sprach Zarathustra) as his concert intro in the 70s. The writer of that song, Richard Strauss, was born on June 11th.* Trump used the same "Space Odyssey" theme during the eclipse.* The Space Odyssey theme connects Elvis, Bowie (possibly Space Oddity, needs double check), Mr. Satan, and the space program in a "mega ritual" about a "savior or Satan".* Kim Jong Un (Rocketman) was born on Elvis's birthday (1-8).* A rock formation in Washington State is said to look like Elvis's head profile looking west, called the "chops zone" during the pandemic. This area (King County) is potentially connected to the predicted major event.Other Predicted/Discussed Events* A prediction is reiterated about Trump getting a "head wound on August 4th in Ohio" and an event in Washington State on June 11th.* An upcoming event is expected about a month from May 7th, focusing on the Space Needle. This could be a "summer of love" like 2020.* The next predicted event is expected to be "bigger than 9-11".* The Kessler syndrome (cascading satellite collisions) is mentioned, linked to movie trailers showing space junk falling.* Trailers for "The New Avengers" (Thunderbolts), "28 Years Later," and "The Eternaut" are seen as predictive programming for space junk, lockdowns, deadly snowfall, and fallout.* Marilyn Manson's album release date (JFK death day 11/22) and video depicting the JFK assassination are discussed. His new song/cover "Something in the Air" is seen as reinforcing the idea of "incoming fallout".* A Seattle drill ("Great Washington Shakeout") is scheduled for October 16th at 10:16 a.m.. This is interpreted as a "dress rehearsal for a PSYOP".Discussion with Callers* Caller "Jurassic Liars" joins and shares details about the police officer killed in Ohio, including his birthday (June 11th) and name (Henderson), connecting it to the 6-11 code and Trump's prediction. Jurassic Liars also points out the Austin Metcalf/twin story and the potential Elvis connection.* The host directs people to Jurassic Liars' YouTube channel and adds it to the "hoax report".* Caller "Challenger Hoax" (also known as "Calm Down") joins and discusses the "Challenger Hoax Twins video".* The Challenger disaster is discussed as a potential "pre-planned ritualistic aerial immolation sacrifice ritual hoax".* William Cooper's interpretation of space shuttle names ("Columbian endeavor to discover Atlantis, Challenger will be destroyed") is mentioned.* Numerical correlations for the Challenger explosion (1 minute 13 seconds, 113th launch) and ties to the Apollo 1 disaster and Sir Francis Drake's death are noted.* A connection is made between astronaut Scooby's son (now head of Air Force) and Scooby's stepdad, noting a physical resemblance.* The teacher chosen for the Challenger mission is believed not to be random but part of a "backstory".* The space program is viewed as a "meta script," a story planned in advance.* The host mentions predicting in a 2020 book that Elon Musk would be involved in the "fiery demolition of the ISS".* The Skylab fall on 7/11/1979, potentially involving the number 42, is discussed.* QAnon is discussed again, with the caller naming early promoters (Tracy Beans, Defango, LTV) and the host suggesting they were "operatives, agents, propaganda mules" and "false flaggers" who think everything is real.* Lift the Veil (LTV) and Jaron are discussed in the context of Art Bell's Midnight in the Desert show, seen as a "hive of CIA agents, or feds or something" who "gate kept alternative thought". Jaron is noted for promoting Pizzagate and QAnon and having a Hollywood connection.* The host notes experiencing computer issues ("gremlin activity," screen turning blurry, crashing) which started after Jurassic Liars called, suggesting the powers that be don't want the discussion happening.Other Notes* The IPS uses minds.com to post links and receipts for the things they discuss. This is done so people can "fact check" them.* Efforts are made to verify connections, such as whether Mr. Beast is connected to Shiloh Hendricks.* The difficulty of discerning real backstories from fake ones created for individuals like CIA agents or those in witness protection is mentioned.* A discussion about a misleading edit related to Michelle Obama ("Big Mike") talking to Marlon Wayans is presented as an example of spreading conspiracy theories. Fact-checkers and community notes have reportedly confirmed it was a misleading edit.* There's a discussion about the deeper esoteric meaning behind events and symbols like Mr. Satan and Starman, linking them to "worship of fallen angels".* Competing satellite companies besides SpaceX are mentioned.The host concludes by thanking the callers and noting the fascinating connections discussed, especially regarding the Rodney Hinton situation. Despite computer issues, the stream ends with the host needing to leave for an appointment.Jewrassic Liars: This is a public episode.

Betsy Madden, San Jose State University Seismic hazard assessments currently depend on fault slip rates, the cumulative offset over many earthquakes along individual faults, to determine the probability of earthquakes of a certain magnitude over a certain time period and potential ground motions. Geologic fault slip rates are estimated by a combination of field and laboratory techniques. Such data can be generated synthetically with mechanical models that capture slip rate variations along complex, three-dimensional fault networks. I will discuss opportunities provided by these synthetic data, as well as integration of the results with dynamic rupture models of individual earthquakes.

She is the editor of Limits of the Numerical: The Abuses and Uses of Quantification. In this episode, we focus on Limits of the Numerical. We discuss what quantification is; whether quantitative data are precise, value-free, and objective; whether qualitative data are of inferior quality; and C. P. Snow's two cultures, and their social and political consequences. We talk about the limits and strengths of quantification, society's relationship to numerical data, and whether it is ethical to manipulate the public with numbers if they have good social effects. We discuss thick concepts, and why they present a challenge to science; the democratization of measurement; and pluralism in science. Throughout the interview, we explore the example of how we conceptualize and quantify wellbeing. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

John Rekoske, University of California San Diego Rapidly estimating the ground shaking produced by earthquakes in real-time, and from future earthquakes, are important challenges in seismology. Numerical simulations of seismic wave propagation can be used to estimate ground motion; however, they require large amounts of computing power and are too slow for real-time problems, even with modern supercomputers. Our aim is to develop a method using both high-performance computing and machine learning techniques to obtain a close approximation of simulated seismic wavefields that can be solved rapidly. This approach integrates physics into the source- and site-specific ground motion estimates used for real-time applications (e.g., earthquake early warning) as well as many-source problems (e.g., probabilistic seismic hazard analysis). Specifically, I will focus this talk on applying data-driven reduced-order models (ROMs) that are based on the interpolated proper orthogonal decomposition method. I will discuss our work using ROMs to (1) instantaneously generate peak ground velocity maps and (2) to rapidly generate three-component velocity seismograms for earthquakes in the greater Los Angeles area. The approach is flexible, in that it can generate 3D elastodynamic Green’s functions which we can use to simulate seismograms for complex kinematic earthquake rupture models. Lastly, I will show how this approach can provide accurate, near-real-time wavefields that could be used to rapidly inform about possible earthquake damage.
I chat to numerologist Chaz about the importance of knowing your numbers to better understand your purpose and the purpose of those around you. I loved learning about the complexities of my path and how best to navigate my destiny. I 100% recommend doing a chat or a google on your numbers as... the numbers never lie!

Speakers make a common mistake when seeking audience participation. They ask “HOW MANY of you…” That question needs a NUMERICAL response. Today Darren and Mark explain how to ask BETTER questions, and how to use the audience's non-verbal response to enhance their own experience. SNIPPETS: • How would you say it over coffee to one person • Use the language of a conversation • Respect the versatility of the word YOU' • Ask you-focused questions • Put the audience into your story • Tap into their world, and transport them into yours • Give the audience time to answer questions in their heads • Read the audience • Acknowledge their responses, even non-verbal • Take inventory of the questions that you ask • Ask yourself, “Is there a better way to ask that question?” • Speaking is dialogue, not monologue
Criteria B is Autism. Hans Aspergers called the children with the syndrome "little professors." This is Autism. Our routines and fixated interests. Autism gives us the ability to be comfortable within ourselves, and this accelerates our abilities, our Superpowers. How will society handle these so-called "differences" and the conflict within the so-called "normal" people?In this episode, we expand to real-life examples of Criteria B components and review some personal experiences.Dopamine Nation (Pleasure and Pain SeeSaw) https://www.annalembke.comhttps://www.templegrandin.com/templegrandinbooks.html(0:00) Intro; Autism is Criteria B, how will society handle "differences," those differences create conflict in others, stimulus-response, conflict, and comfort(4:44) Routines (B2) and Plans, Exact Planning, Plan versus Actual Time and Execution, Reality meets our Visualized Thinking; Pleasure and Pain SeeSaw; More Relationship Struggles Implicated by Criteria B,(9:01) Punctual- for others and ourselves; Bias yourself into Action; Understanding the need for Breaks; Others take the easy way out; get Sunlight for our Biology(12:34) Personal Experience and a Glimpse into an Autistic Thought; Traffic Spacing(16:33) Researching Items and Fixated Interests (B3); personal experience; Hans Aspergers and his Little Professors- This is Autism!(20:40) Other examples- Pant Sizes and Alpha instead of Numerical, Restaurant Rant, Never Underestimate a Human's Capacity to Think; Don't try to change Autism because it is offends you- offends your expectations and beliefs(23:12) Reviews and Ratings and Contact Information
Numerical growth is not promised to the church. But even when numbers decline, the Christian church clings to the promise that Jesus promised to build His church, and so He does.

DAY 258 CHALLENGE “Why do you claim that the biblical authors used a different level of precision than we do?” DEFENSE Approximations were more common because of the inability in the ancient world to accurately measure and record things (see Day 248). We can show Scripture uses many forms of approximation, including: Numerical approximations: For example, a basin in Solomon's temple is said to have a diameter of ten cubits and a circumference of thirty cubits (1 Kings 7:23; 2 Chron. 4:2), indicating the approximate value of π (pi) as 3 (see Day 197). Numerical approximations are also …
