How do you know what fly to use, and when to use it? Well, a lot of that knowledge comes from time on the water, and it depends on when and where you're fishing, since a lot of insects are only active at certain times of the year. But there is one fly that'll catch fish year-round, from the dead of winter, to the height of summer: the midge!  Midges are one of the main groups of aquatic insects that form the majority of a fish's diet. This week on Untangled, Spencer Durrant walks you through everything you need to know about these bugs. From their appearance, to their lifecycle, and how to fish them, you'll end this show ready to take advantage of midges.  You'll also learn about:  How to time it so that you're on the water for an epic, unforgettable hatch Tips for fishing small, brushy streams with a lot of depth changes How to gain confidence in your wading skills  LINKS FROM THE SHOW Get the FREE Year-Round Hatch Chart - CHECK IT OUT Join the VFC Online Community - CHECK IT OUT QUESTIONS FOR THE SHOW - SUBMIT HERE #LIVEREELLIFE MOMENT - SUBMIT HERE GEAR - 3 Packs of VFC Flies - CHECK THEM OUT VIDEO - Beginner's First Time Fly Fishing - CHECK IT OUT

If you've ever wondered why your dungeon feels less like a terrifying crawl through the dark and more like a grayscale video game, this episode shines a light on everything wrong—and weird—about darkvision. In this remastered and updated episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts revisit one of their most debated topics: how vision mechanics function in tabletop RPGs, especially Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder. They dive deep into how different systems handle lighting, visibility, and the ever-confusing rules around darkvision. The episode unpacks the practical and narrative implications of light and darkness on exploration, combat, and roleplay—while also poking fun at the sheer absurdity of adventurers who can see in total darkness but never think to bring a lantern. Whether you're a rules lawyer, a narrative-driven GM, or just someone who's tired of arguing over torches, this episode casts a light on what works, what doesn't, and how to make vision mechanics better at your table. Key Discussion Points: Darkvision is Overused Most fantasy races have darkvision, which undermines the significance of light sources and ambient visibility mechanics in dungeon crawls and wilderness travel. Darkness Isn't a Binary The hosts break down how various RPG systems treat “darkness” as either full concealment or simply a lighting condition—highlighting how this impacts realism and gameplay clarity. Low-Light Vision, Infrared, and Blindsight There's a whirlwind of different vision types across systems. The crew discusses how these interact with rules as written, and how easily they're misinterpreted or misused. Narrative Consequences of Light Lighting impacts tone, mood, and narrative. A well-placed torch can heighten suspense; a spell like Darkness can reshape a battlefield. Mechanical Consequences Fighting in dim light? You might have disadvantage. No vision in magical darkness? Better hope someone brought See Invisibility or Devil's Sight. The hosts detail how to make vision a tactical element again. The “Human Tax” Playing a human or other race without darkvision often feels like a penalty, rather than a tradeoff. The crew discusses how to rebalance the lighting meta to make non-darkvision races feel less punished. Solutions for GMs From clever dungeon design to creative lighting rules, the team suggests practical strategies for making light and darkness relevant again—without slowing down the game. The Meta Problem Darkvision often becomes an assumed default at many tables. The episode closes with a call to reevaluate assumptions and bring tension back to the dark. Key Takeaways: Darkvision is often poorly explained, inconsistently applied, and over-relied upon. Making light meaningful again requires buy-in from both players and GMs. Vision types beyond darkvision (like tremorsense or truesight) are powerful tools—but can be balance-breaking if unchecked. Lighting should be a storytelling element as well as a mechanical tool. Consider adding environmental challenges, magical lighting effects, and vision-blocking terrain to elevate encounters. Don't be afraid to reward clever lighting solutions or punish parties who ignore visibility as a tactical factor. A torchlit dungeon is more exciting than one where everyone sees perfectly in grayscale.

People in Lynn Lake, Manitoba are forced to leave their town because of an out-of-control wildfire -- just two weeks after they were allowed to return after fleeing another out-of-control wildfire.Our guest tells us what the passage of Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" -- with its deep cuts to Medicaid -- is likely to mean for millions of Americans with disabilities, including him. A Palestinian student was accepted to a Canadian university master's program, on scholarship -- but she can't leave Gaza City until Ottawa comes through with her student visa. And she's hardly the only one. A community in Newfoundland and Labrador got some good news this week: for the first time in decades, part of the town now has clean water coming out of their faucets. Cowbirds skip the hassles of hatching and rearing their young by leaving their eggs in other birds' nests. Now, new research shows how the cowbird chicks find their way back to their own kind -- after flipping their foster parents the bird.

The third of 4 Episodes with Outdoor Adventure Photographer Sergio Bolivian providing tips and advice to improve your adventure photography. Facebook   Twitter   Instagram Love the show? Subscribe,  rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter  HERE I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here:  rick@ricksaez.com Show Notes Ever tried hiking 12 miles with a 40-pound camera bag? Yeah... I did . . . Once. What Happened: I used to think the more gear I carried, the better photographer I'd be. Every lens, every filter, every tripod head—I looked like REI exploded on my back. But halfway up a steep ridge in the Sierra, gasping for breath, I thought my buddy Sergio—he carries two cameras, two lenses, zero sweat. Dude casually composes shots while I am usually auditioning for a Gatorade commercial. That's when it hit me. It's not about carrying everything. It's about seeing everything better—with less. Principle: Packing light isn't just about saving your spine. It forces you to become more intentional. To stop overthinking the gear and start trusting your eye. That's what makes your photography sharper—physically and creatively. Transition: Most outdoor photographers think they need the “perfect” gear setup to get “the shot.” But what if that mindset is actually what's holding you back? Lugging around unnecessary equipment, over-editing photos, relying on gear instead of instinct... sound familiar? That's why: That's why this week's episode with Sergio is a must-listen. He breaks down exactly how he shoots stunning landscapes with a lean kit, no filters, and a mindset honed from decades in the field. If you've been overpacking, overthinking, or just overwhelmed, this one's for you. Call to Action: Struggling to capture powerful images because your bag's heavy, your process is clunky, or you're stuck in gear paralysis?

Soft tissue surgeon Dr. Vanna Dickerson and veterinary student Gabriella Hansen join us to discuss their fascinating research on how ice packs affect blood flow in canine skin.For years, surgeons have cautioned against using ice after delicate skin procedures like flaps and grafts, believing it might compromise blood flow. However, this advice lacked scientific backing until now. Through precise measurements using laser speckle contrast imaging, Dr. Dickerson and Hansen discovered that ice application reduces skin perfusion by 10-15% compared to baseline - and surprisingly, in some dogs, blood flow remained decreased even 15 minutes after the ice was removed.This groundbreaking work confirms what many surgeons suspected but couldn't prove, giving veterinarians evidence-based guidance for post-operative care decisions. Dr. Dickerson and Hansen emphasize that ice remains valuable for pain control in most situations, but surgeons should exercise caution in cases where even small perfusion decreases could jeopardize healing. For pet owners, understanding these nuances helps explain why your veterinarian might specifically recommend for or against icing in different scenarios.Beyond the clinical findings, Dr. Dickerson and Hansen offer valuable insights for veterinary students interested in research, encouraging them to find mentors and emphasizing that meaningful studies don't require complex laboratory setups. Their work exemplifies how asking simple questions about everyday practices can lead to significant improvements in patient care. Listen now to discover how this common therapy affects your pet's healing and what questions still remain for future investigation.AJVR article: https://doi.org/10.2460/ajvr.25.01.0023INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ® OR AJVR ® ?

Imagine being a sophomore, leading the NASCAR points with Richard Petty, Darrell Waltrip and Cale Yarborough breathing down your neck. That was Dale Earnhardt's reality in May of 1980. He and the Osterlund Team are fresh off back-to-back wins in hot pursuit of more trophies, but the competition is heating up. The young outfit gets a lesson in stock car excellence from Buddy Baker and Waddell Wilson, as Dale has a rematch with the Gray Ghost at Talladega. After a quiet race at Nashville and an engine failure at Dover, things begin boiling over in the 2-car's garage.As the Cup Series returns home for World 600 weekend, there was a tension you could cut with a knife between team management and legendary crew chief Jake Elder. The decision is made to turn their focus away from their Cup program to run the Mello Yello 300 Late Model Sportsman race, and Jake declares he's had enough. To make matters worse, the weekend proves disastrous when a cut tire dashes Dale's hopes of a hometown victory and slashes his points lead in half. The next day, Dale and the Osterlund team get a harsh reminder of why they call Jake Elder: “Suitcase”.

On this episode of Managed Care Cast, The American Journal of Managed Care® speaks with Julia Lucaci, PharmD, MS, the senior director of global health economics and outcomes research at Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD), an international medical technology company. Her commentary, "Should Payers Incentivize Pharmacies to Blister-Package Chronic Medications?" argues that payers should consider offering higher reimbursement rates and/or preferred network status to pharmacies that dispense chronic medications in blister packs to enhance medication adherence and patient outcomes. During the conversation, Lucaci explores the widespread impact of medication nonadherence, the benefits and underutilization of blister packaging in the US, and strategies that could support broader adoption to improve chronic disease management and lower overall health care costs.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Jonathan Thomas, known on trail as Janis Joplin. Janis Joplin is a thru-hiker, FKT record holder, D1 collegiate track and field athlete, former news cameraman, Boston Marathon bombing survivor, CDT trail angel, and owner of Exotic Pax, an innovative, vest-style backpack for thru-hikers handmade in Chama, New Mexico. This episode covers a lot of ground, including the many times he's narrowly escaped death, what is was like growing up in New Orleans, being a D1 collegiate athlete, what brought him into the world of FKTs and how FKT athletes are more possessive over their records than they might lead on, what it's like to run an outfitter in a sleepy CDT town, and the inspiration and process that goes into his unique backpacks. We wrap the show with a reversal on the closure of a campground key to JMT and PCT hikers, our takes on who'd win in a fight between 100 men and one silverback gorilla, and the Triple Crown of items you geniously stash in many strategic locations.
