Story at-a-glance Scientific findings link prolonged high temperatures to increased aggression, poor decision-making, and reduced mental sharpness, all of which affect your safety, relationships, and productivity Opting for breathable fabrics like cotton or linen, wearing loose clothing, and choosing strategic colors will help regulate your body temperature and prevent overheating during hot days Experts recommend directly cooling large surface areas like your torso and limbs with water or ice, especially if you spend long hours outdoors or work in the heat Keeping your air conditioner's filters clean, clearing the surrounding area, and managing usage boosts its cooling efficiency, reduces your energy bills, and protects indoor air quality — especially for vulnerable individuals Staying hydrated is non-negotiable in hot weather — follow thirst cues, monitor your urine color, and consume water-rich fruits and electrolytes like coconut water to stay cool, energized, and resilient against dehydration

Jay and Kay debate the money loss and if it matters to a billionaire, that happens to be married.

Emma McKeon is an Olympic icon, an Australian swimming legend, and now a Swammer. At the Paris 2024 Olympics, McKeon became one of only 2 women in swimming to ever win 14 Olympic medals over her career, joining Katie Ledecky who accomplished the same feat at the same meet. SwimSwam caught up with McKeon after she had enjoyed some well-earned rest, recovery, and travel since Paris. The Aussie shared what her life has looked like since stepping away from swimming but also reflected on the leadup to her final meet. McKeon revealed that just 2-3 weeks out from Paris, she was contemplating not even going due to the severity of pain she was having in her shoulders. However, she was able to manage her injury through the Games and walk away with a gold, silver, and bronze, securing her legacy as one of the greatest Olympians ever.

Beer-logo'd golf bags. Old school MTV veejays. The Dead Guys of the Week — Brian Wilson and Sly Stone — and their place in music and pop culture history.Matt Zimmer and John Gaskins tried their best to kick around fun and breezy topics to avoid that dreaded summer buzz kill — The NCAA-House Settlement and where schools like SDSU and USD fit into it.But eventually, the hosts of the weekly "Nobody's Listening Anyway" podcast got down to busines at Gateway Lounge. What does this darn thing mean and what really matters to the college football fans of the Dakotas and the FCS?What's also exhausting and confusing is if SDSU, USD, and NDSU will opt in or not, and what the competitive advantages and disadvantages would immediately be no matter what that choice is.Over his ice cold Bud Light on tap, Zimmer — who, like most, is blurry-eyed from the deluge of reports and details about the Settlemen and what schools are doing about it — boils things down to the simplest and most straightforward of terms, including what SDSU football coach Dan Jackson makes of it.Also, what is the bigger picture of the Sioux Falls Storm in the wake of head coach Andre Fields's resignation this week? Is this a sign the team may never come back? Why and how did it lose its hold on both its league and the springtime sports fans of Sioux Falls?Also, some Twins Talk — Bailey Ober's injury, Buxton's boom, Wallner's emergence — and a few words about the University of Sioux Falls' new logo, which leads to the rabbit hole of SDSU and USD logos and sports team logos, in general.On the way out, a word about "Tacos and Tequila," the upcoming hip-hop festival at The Birdcage, and Matt's new pickup truck. And his way to drive a pickup.

In this episode, I sit down with my longtime friend Pat Flynn to explore the creative process… not from strategy, but from center. Pat and I talk about what it looks like to create without pressure to learn everything all at once, to unsubscribe from all the distractions without losing clarity, and to build something meaningful without needing to chase every bit of information calling for your attention. We explore how his newest book, Lean Learning, emerged not just as a productivity tool, but as a reflection of his own journey toward presence, freedom, and focused execution. This conversation isn't about hacks or hustle. It's about alignment. Trust. And the art of listening to your own inner knowing. If you've ever felt stuck between your ideas and your execution… If you've struggled with overthinking, perfectionism, or trying to learn too much… This episode may open a new door for you. Pat's honesty, clarity, and humility shine here. And I believe you'll walk away with not just insight, but peace. You can get Pat's book, Lean Learning, at leanlearningbook.com

Mike and Abe open up the show with some brief thoughts on the Braves 5-4 loss to the Nationals on Wednesday noting how the bullpen gave up four runs leading to the loss. They also share thoughts on how well Drake Baldwin continues to produce at the plate, supporting Mike's argument the Braves have to find a way to keep the young catcher in the lineup as opposed to opting for Sean Murphy, who continues to struggle. They then get into the Falcons schedule and share thoughts on how early their bye is at Week 5, both agreeing the early bye is not ideal.

Harry feels a lot of sympathy for Neville after learning what happened to his parents, and feels a new hatred for Voldemort and what he has cost people  For the first time, Harry is properly prepared for a task  Rita has changed her tune on Harry - he really should file a lawsuit  Hermione has a brainwave about Rita and of course, does not tell Harry and Ron anything  If a champion had been Muggle Born, would their family been able to come to Hogwarts? Molly tells Amos that Rita Skeeter is a liar but seemed to believe it when it was about Hermione....  Percy is taking the Mr Crouch news very hard There are some safety guidelines implemented for the Third Task - has opting out been an option this whole time?  Was the Third Task set up to be something Harry would excel at? Harry's initial reflect when Fleur is in trouble is to help, but then thinks about the competition Does it seem wrong that Fleur is the one who always seems to struggle in the tournament? It seems to further the bias of female characters that are generally more feminine are not taken seriously?  Fake Mood did not count on Cedric being such a good sport and Harry having empathy  Harry used all the traits of the houses within the tournament  This is where the series really changes - Harry is never the same after this point in the book  Snape Sucks count for Chapter 31:0 Email any thoughts, questions or feedback  potterrevisitedpodcast@gmail.com Music: Shelter Song by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow Us:  Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/potterrevisited Twitter https://twitter.com/potterevisited Instagram https://www.instagram.com/potterrevisited_/ Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4v2Xt0OIQ8_LCVYhKf2S5A TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@potterrevisited

Today's guest, Fly Anakin, is no stranger to delivering albums that leave a distinct imprint on the listener. As seen on past records like Frank that envelop you in dusty old soul records and introspection, and FlySiifu's that welcomed you into this record shop concept with two homies who enjoy trading bars over some sick jazz rap instrumentals. But on his latest album, (The) Forever Dream, Fly Anakin takes a noticeably different approach. Opting not to follow a distinct concept or theme, Frank traded pre-meditated forethought for a more free-wheeling approach, allowing for the album to reveal itself through fun studio sessions with the album's executive producer, Detroit legend Quelle Chris. The results of this approach were terrific, as this new album sees Fly Anakin operate with so much freedom, embracing new sounds and collaborators, resulting in an incredibly loose and dynamic album that manages to push all the right buttons, balancing spontaneity with expertly crafted cohesion. In this episode, we dive into how Frank's relationship with Quelle was formed, the effortlessly natural collaborative process creating this new album, and much more! The Plug (0:45). The Interview (2:44). Frank's feelings towards the release of (The) Forever Dream (4:58). Frank touring with his partner, bbymutha (7:09). The formation of Fly Anakin and Quelle Chris' relationship (11:48). What makes Quelle special as an artist and collaborator (16:50). How Quelle and Fly Anakin are ‘opposites' (22:27).

Alice (SO/SP 9w1 973) joins us for a profound and poetic exploration of the inner world of Nine — where the background environment can overshadow the self, and the longing isn't for pleasure, but for the peace of never having been born. We dive into the quiet ache for pre-conscious coziness, the hesitance to disturb reality with one's presence, and the existential ambivalence at the heart of Nine structure: Do I really want to exist? Alice reflects on the invisible toll of absorbing the world's energies, the disorienting effects of nightlife work, and the shattering aftermath of real connection gone silent. Her story is a journey of individuation and the slow integration of disparate parts of herself — from coming out as trans, to seeing herself mirrored in others' self-suppression, and ultimately, to saying yes to life.

Just when you thought you understood Local Services Ads (LSAs), Google changes the game. Gyi and Conrad sound the alarm on the latest shift in LSA terms—and this one's a doozy. Google now claims the right to tweak, repurpose, and plaster your ad content wherever it wants. Cool cool cool… unless you're a lawyer who cares about things like client confidentiality and ethics.   Is this a harmless update? A marketing landmine? Or just another “oops, didn't read the fine print” moment? The guys debate what opting in *really* means, how it could affect your firm, and why blind trust in Big Tech is looking less like a best practice and more like a liability.   Takeaways: Google's changing the rules on LSAs—again.   Your ad content? They can now modify and use it freely.   Ethics red flag: This could compromise client confidentiality.   Most lawyers have no idea this is happening.   Opting in might mean opening a can of worms.   Google's rollout? Vague at best.   Legal marketers are losing faith.   Ad performance and trust are both on the line.   Law firms must weigh ethical risks before opting in.   Transparency isn't optional—it's essential.   Chapters 00:00 – Breaking News: Google Drops LSA Bombshell 01:12 – What Google's New Data Policy Really Means 06:00 – The Opt-In Confusion (and Consequences) 11:00 – Google's Data Grab and Pricing Power Play 17:15 – AI, Ethics, and the Future of Legal Ads

Cooking oils are fundamental to culinary practices worldwide, bringing unique flavor, texture, and nutritional profile. The variety of cooking oils available today is vast, ranging from traditional options like olive oil and butter to more modern choices like avocado and coconut oil. One of the most widely recognized cooking oils is olive oil, particularly extra virgin olive oil. This oil is appreciated for its rich flavor and high monounsaturated fats, which are popular and support heart health by reducing harmful cholesterol levels. Olive oil is ideal for salad dressings, low to medium-heat cooking, and drizzling over finished dishes. However, its low smoke point makes it less suitable for high-heat methods like deep-frying. In contrast, refined olive oil has a higher smoke point and can handle more heat, though it lacks the robust flavor of its extra virgin counterpart. Another popular oil is coconut oil, which has gained a reputation for its unique composition of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). The body metabolizes these fats differently, potentially providing a quick energy source. Coconut oil is solid at room temperature and has a distinct tropical flavor, making it a favorite in baking and sautéing. However, its high saturated fat content has sparked debate among health experts, with some cautioning against excessive consumption due to potential links to increased cholesterol levels.Oils with high smoke points are essential for high-heat cooking methods like frying. With its mild flavor and impressive smoke point, Avocado oil is an excellent choice for searing, grilling, and roasting. It is also rich in monounsaturated fats and vitamin E, contributing to its heart-healthy profile. Similarly, peanut oil, commonly used in Asian cuisine, is another high-smoke-point oil that adds a nutty flavor to stir-fries and deep-fried dishes. Its stability at high temperatures makes it a reliable option for frying.Canola oil, derived from rapeseed, is another versatile option with a neutral taste and a moderate smoke point. It is low in saturated fat and contains a precious balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, making it a heart-healthy choice for baking, sautéing, and frying. Conversely, butter and ghee (clarified butter) are cherished for their rich, creamy flavors. Butter is a world staple in baking and other applications and adds depth to sauces and sautéed dishes, but its high saturated fat content should be used in moderation. With its lactose and casein removed, Ghee has a higher smoke point and is suitable for higher-heat cooking. It is also a key ingredient in many traditional Indian dishes.Seed oils, such as sunflower, safflower, and grapeseed oil, are often praised for their light flavors and high smoke points. These oils are typically high in polyunsaturated fats, particularly omega-6 fatty acids. Moderation in use and consumption is key when incorporating these oils into your diet. More importantly, continue to document yourself for better options.Health considerations are paramount when choosing cooking oils. Oils high in unsaturated fats, such as olive, avocado, and canola oil, are generally considered healthier due to their potential to improve cholesterol levels and drastically reduce The risk of heart disease. Trans fats, primarily found in partially hydrogenated oils, are particularly harmful and should be avoided altogether. They are linked to increased risks of heart disease and other chronic conditions. In addition to health, the environmental impact of oil production is an essential factor to consider. Palm oil, for instance, is widely used in processed foods and has a high smoke point, but its selection and production are often associated with deforestation and habitat destruction. Opting for sustainably sourced palm oil or alternative oils can help mitigate these tragic environmental concerns.Read the Complete text here.

It's time to remember who we truly are with my guest, Alec Zeck. Speaker, writer, and executive director of The Way Forward, Alec dismantles the illusion of control, exposing why true sovereignty comes from radical self-responsibility, not outsourcing power to corrupt institutions. We explore how decentralized systems can replace failing governance, from independent health networks to alternative education and security. Alec also challenges the germ theory fallacy, revealing why there's no direct evidence that viruses cause disease and how environmental toxins, stress, and EMFs impact health far more than we've been led to believe. This episode is a call to reclaim your power, question everything, and start building a world that actually works for us.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational purposes only and not intended for diagnosing or treating illnesses.

Welcome to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast, where we aim to offer you a fresh perspective on life.  Life, as we all know, is a precious gift intertwined with moments of pain - be it physical, emotional, mental, or relational. Let's face it, life's journey can feel like a bumpy ride with its fair share of sorrow and suffering. Sometimes, it just doesn't seem fair, right? But here, we keep it real. Our mission is to guide you towards healing for your wounds, hope in despair, intimacy in loneliness, and shelter from life's storms - ultimately leading you to a deeper connection with Jesus. Through all my years, one truth stands firm: God doesn't waste a thing - not our sorrows, not our wounds, not even our failures. Hello, I'm your host, Dennis Jernigan, thrilled yet slightly nervous to unveil today's song and, what I think is, its fascinating backstory. As I mentioned last week, my apprehension stems from the fact that while you're accustomed to hearing me share worship, ministry, and comforting songs inspired by Father God, today's song has a different origin. It draws inspiration from a trilogy of fantasy novels I penned for my children and grandchildren back in 2015. You might be wondering, "Why would a worship leader delve into the realm of fantasy?" To get the full scoop, tune in to the podcast episode titled "Song of Arolis." Intriguingly, the Lord used fantasy and myth to deepen my unwavering faith in Jesus Christ.  The featured song in this week's episode is "Ollieman's Song," originally crafted for the book "Captured" from The Chronicles of Bren Trilogy. "Captured" serves as my life story, narrated allegorically as a legacy for my descendants. While penning the books, I couldn't help but imagine how they would translate into a Disney movie. I managed to compose songs for the first two books but never quite got around to creating tunes for the final installment. That third book delves into my aspirations for my nine children, whose real-life tales are still unfolding - they will ultimately script their own melodies.  Before we delve further, I have fantastic news to share. You can access and even download the entire album dedicated to book one, "Captured - Songs For the Journey," completely free of charge at www.thechroniclesofbren.com. I urge you to immerse yourself in the "Captured" book before delving into the songs inspired by its key characters. This album aims to empower young men to rise above their setbacks, failures, and the deceitful whispers of the enemy, enabling them to embrace their true identity in God.  Today's spotlight is on "Ollieman's Song," a creation that found its way to me back in 2015 or 2016.In The Chronicles of Bren series, a prominent figure is a wise old owl named Ollieman. Wondering why? Well, during my childhood, our family owned an old  barn, crafted by my grandfather in the 1930s and 1940s, boasting a magnificent hay loft. Every year, like clockwork, this barn played host to majestic barn owls. Each spring, a new generation of owlets would hatch, fiercely guarded by their mother who would not tolerate any intrusion, warning us with menacing hisses if we dared to peek into their nest! Those owls became a recurring dream of mine, a reminder of the wonder of having our very own owl neighbors!  In the tale of "Captured," the owl symbolizes unwavering friendship and embodies true wisdom. Opting for an owl was a deliberate choice, considering the bird's reputation for wisdom in the western world, attributed to its distinct features like large, front-facing eyes, noiseless flight, and nocturnal activities. Owls seem to communicate only when essential, mirroring the sentiment of Proverbs 7:28 NKJV, which suggests that even a fool can appear wise by choosing silence and discernment. I aim to leave a legacy of wisdom for my family, recognizing the allure of petty self-centeredness. Genuine wisdom stems from adopting a positive outlook, akin to an owl soaring above, navigating darkness with clarity. It's crucial for us to commit to seeking true wisdom throughout our lives, fostering personal growth. If you notice a rhyme scheme in Ollie's dialogue, that's just my inner songwriter shining through.  In "Captured," I delve into my early longing for meaningful companionship, rooted in the desire to be truly understood. This quest led me to discover that connection in Jesus. "Ollieman's Song" exudes a cheerful vibe that might linger in your mind throughout the day - consider yourself warned if it becomes an earworm. Embrace it, enjoy it, and let the melody uplift your spirits. SONG God's Word explains love and friendship to  us in John 15:13 NKJV 13 which says "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.”  Ollieman the owl serves as a poignant representation of Jesus, encouraging us to gain a divine perspective on life's challenges. By aligning ourselves with God's vantage point, we unlock the pathway to genuine wisdom. May this insight guide you not only today but in the days that follow.   Before I say goodbye, let me share a few ways to keep up with me. I appreciate your presence on The Dennis Jernigan Podcast more than you know and I want you to know that.  For more on my journey, music, and updates, explore dennisjernigan.com.

I recommend delving into the book before immersing yourself in the character-inspired songs.   Thank you once again for being part of today's podcast. Always remember, you are cherished by God and by me.

Sometimes, the most powerful form of protest isn't about what you do, it's about what you don't do. The simplest way to fight back against a system that thrives on your consumption is to simply... opt out of it as much as humanly possible. It's going to be super inconvenient at first, but once you get the hang of it you'll realize the perks: it's better for the environment, better for your wallet, and a surprisingly powerful tool to weaponize in a capitalist society.And the best part? You don't have to do anything. In fact, the less you do, the better.Donate to Palestinian Children's Relief Fund::www.pcrf.netDonate to Mutual Aid Funds: https://www.folxhealth.com/library/mutual-aid-fundsGET AN OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR COOL CONTENT: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastOR BE A REAL GEM + TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastOR WATCH ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/juliemerica The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.
