CardioNerds (Dr. Jenna Skowronski [Heart Failure Council Chair], Dr. Shazli Khan, and Dr. Josh Longinow) are joined by renowned leaders in the field of AHFTC (Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology) and mechanical circulatory support, Dr. Jeff Teuteberg and Dr. Mani Daneshmand to continue the discussion of advanced heart failure therapies by taking a deep dive into the world of durable LVADs (Left Ventricular Assist Devices). In this episode, we will review the history of ventricular assist devices, the basics of LVAD function, selection criteria for LVAD therapy, and surgical nuances of LVAD implantation. Audio Editing by CardioNerds intern, Joshua Khorsandi. Enjoy this Circulation 2022 Paths to Discovery article to learn about the CardioNerds story, mission, and values.

Pearls There have been significant advances in the field of MCS/LVAD therapy since the first implanted LVAD in the 1960s, to the first FDA approved device in the early 2000's, to now the HM3 LVAD, with the most important change being a centrifugal flow/magnetically levitated design that led to minimized hemocompatibility-related adverse events (HRAE's) (MOMENTUM 3 trial comparing HM2 and HM3). The REMATCH trial in 2001 was a pivotal trial for LVAD therapy, demonstrating that in a population of patients with advanced HF (70% IV inotrope dependent), LVAD therapy significantly improved survival at both 1 and 2 years as compared to medical therapy alone. MOMENTUM 3 trial was a landmark trial for the HM3 device, showing that in a population of end stage HF patients (86% inotrope dependent, 32% INTERMACS 1-2, and 60% DT strategy), 5-year survival with HM3 was 58% and HM3 had lower HRAE's compared with HM2. There are both patient-specific factors and surgical considerations when it comes to candidacy for LVAD therapy. RV function prior to LVAD is a key determinant for success post-LVAD Many patients being considered for LVAD may not have robust RV function, however, predicting RV failure after LVAD is exceedingly difficult. In general, it doesn’t matter how bad the RV may look on imaging; we care more about the pre-LVAD hemodynamics (look at the PAPi and RA/wedge ratio). What happens in the OR may be the most important determinant of how the RV will do with the LVAD! Notes Notes drafted by Dr. Josh Longinow. 1. Historical background of heart pumps and LVADs LVAD Evolution FDA approval year 2001 2008 2012 2017 Pump HeartMate XVE HeartMate II Heartware HVAD HeartMate III Flow/Design Features Pulsatile Technology Continuous flow Axial design Continuous flow Centrifugal design Continuous flow Full MagLev + Centrifugal design The 1960's ushered in the first ‘LVADs', when the first air-powered ‘LVAD' was implanted. It kept the patient alive for four days before the patient expired. The first generation of LVADs were pulsatile pumps The first nationally recognized, FDA approved LVAD was the HeartMate XVE (late 1990s to early 2000s, REMATCH trial). The XVE pump used compressed air (pneumatically driven) to power the pump. Prior to the XVE, OHT was the standard of care for patients with advanced, end-stage heart failure. The second and third generations of LVADs were non-pulsatile, continuous flow devices and included the HVAD, HM2, and HM3 devices. MOMENTUM 3 was a landmark trial for the HM3 device, showing that in a population of sick patients with end stage HF (86% inotrope dependent, 32% INTERMACS 1-2, and 60% DT strategy), 5-year survival with HM3 was 58% and HM3 had lower HRAE's compared with HM2. The only pump that is currently FDA approved for implant is the HM3, although other pumps are in clinical trials (BrioVAD system, INNOVATE Trial). 2. What are LVADs, and how do they work? In simplest terms, the LVAD is a heart pump comprised of several key mechanistic components: Inflow cannula Mechanical pump Outflow cannula Driveline Controller/Power source The HM3 differs from its predecessors (HM2 and HVAD) in several key ways; HM3 is placed intrapericardial whereas the HM2 was placed pre-peritoneal. Perhaps most importantly, the HM3 is a fully magnetically levitated, centrifugal flow pump, whereas the HM2 is an axial flow device. Axial flow pumps are not magnetically levitated, leading to more friction produced between the ruby bearing's contact with the pump rotors, and higher rates of hemocompatibility related adverse events (HRAEs, i.e. pump thrombosis) and the HM2 was ultimately discontinued in favor of the HM3 (MOMENTUM 3 trial). 3. What do the terms ‘Destination Therapy' (DT) or ‘Bridge to Transplant' (BTT) mean when it comes to LVADs? When LVADs first came on the stage, EVERYONE was a BTT; these early pumps weren't designed for long term use (I.e. REMATCH Trial, Heartmate XVE) Destination therapy means the LVAD was placed in leu of transplant because there are contraindications to transplant REMATCH trial brought about the concept of “Destination therapy”, comparing outcomes in patients (with contraindications for transplant) who received an LVAD vs optimal medical therapy Bridge to transplant means we are placing the LVAD in a patient who may not be a transplant candidate at this moment in time (is too sick, or conversely, not sick enough), but may be down the line Bridge to recovery is another term used when the LVAD is being placed for a patient we think may have a recoverable cardiomyopathy 4. What are some factors we should consider when assessing a patient’s candidacy for LVAD, in general, and from a surgical perspective? Patient factors Older age might push us towards thinking LVAD rather than transplant In general, age > 70 is the cutoff for transplant, but this is not a hard cut off and varies institution to institution In general, think about things that help predict recovery after a major surgery; Frailty and Nutritional status are important, we try to optimize these prior to LVAD implant Right ventricular function remains the Achilles heel of LV support We know that needing temporary RV support post LVAD puts you on a different survival curve than patients who don’t need RVAD support Studies have not been able to successfully predict who will develop RV failure after LVAD implantation What happens in the time between when the patient goes to the OR and when they get back to the ICU is an important determinant who might develop RV failure post LVAD Surgical techniques such as implanting the HM3 in the intra-thoracic cavity, rather than intra-pericardial may help maintain LV/RV geometry to help optimize the RV post LVAD Surgical considerations for LVAD candidacy Small, hypertrophied LV: HM3 inflow cannula is small, but small hypertrophied ventricles tend towards chamber collapse during systole causing suction, needing to run slower with lower flow rates Chest size/diameter: pumps have gotten so small now, that for adults, these have become less of a consideration BMI: low BMI used to be more of a concern with the older pumps due to where they were placed, and the relative size of the pump itself, not so much now with the smaller HM 3 pumps Calcified LV apex: would increase risk of stroke, bleeding Driveline tunneling becomes a concern in the super obese population, higher risk for driveline infections (might tunnel these driveline's shorter, and to a less fatty region of the abdomen, could even tunnel out the thoracic cavity in the super obese to limit skin motion) 5. Is there a role for MCS (i.e. temporary LVAD such as Impella) in pre-habilitation of patients prior to LVAD surgery? The theory of being able to improve systemic perfusion, decongest the organs, and make the patient feel better prior to surgery makes sense, but becomes problematic due to the lack of a hard end point/time for prehabilitation which might risk delays in surgery More likely that it can lead to delay in the surgery, with less-than-optimal benefit; you don't want to prolong the wait for surgery and increase the risk for complications prior to surgery An Impella 5.5 is currently FDA approved for 2 weeks of support, not 2 months so timing is important to keep in mind It’s unlikely that you will take a patient and convert them from a malnourished, cachectic person in 2 weeks’ time 6. Is there a role for LVAD therapy in the younger patient population? Should we be thinking of LVAD up front for these patients, with the goal of transplanting down the line? Recovery may be more likely in certain populations, particularly younger females with smaller LV's; in those populations, perhaps bridge to recovery should be the focus, optimizing them on GDMT etc. The replacement of transplant, with MCS (LVAD) in young patients has become a topic of discussion, because these pumps have become better and better, with the thinking that an LVAD could bridge a patient for 10 years or so, and they could get a transplant later It is still a big unknown, but several concerns exist Patients who get LVADs might end up with complications that become contraindication to transplant down the line (stroke, sensitization etc) Patients and providers are more hesitant because of the more recent iteration for the UNOS criteria for OHT listing which no longer gives patients with an uncomplicated LVAD higher priority, and therefore they could end up waiting a longer time for a heart after undergoing LVAD References Rose EA, Gelijns AC, Moskowitz AJ, et al.

Pain can quietly shrink your world—your sleep, your mood, even your sense of future. In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, Dr. Christopher Lauria reframes pain as a signal worth listening to, not something to simply silence. This episode is for anyone living with chronic neck, back, or disc discomfort who feels stuck between “meds forever” and “surgery next.” You'll hear how a root-cause approach, patient education, and supportive technologies can help people explore options with more clarity and less fear. About the Guest: Dr. Christopher Lauria is the founder of Roanoke Disc Center and Lifestyle Chiropractic. He has spent nearly three decades helping people address chronic neck, back, and disc pain using non-surgical and integrative approaches. Episode Chapters: 05:20 — Pain as a warning sign, not the enemy 07:58 — Why people assume meds first, surgery last 09:27 — Chronic pain patterns: discs, degeneration, arthritis 11:29 — How pain impacts mood, energy, and relationships 13:02 — Spinal decompression: creating conditions to heal 14:05 — Class 4 laser therapy and tissue support 16:20 — Patience, plateaus, and trusting a longer healing arc Key Takeaways: Treat pain like a “check engine light”: investigate the cause before choosing a path. Ask your provider: “What's the diagnosis—and what's driving it?” Consider a plan that supports healing conditions, not just symptom relief. Expect recovery to take time; relief may come early, healing continues longer. Track mood/energy alongside pain—your nervous system is part of the story.

For years, MBA applicants have asked some version of the same question: "What job will I get after graduation?" It's understandable. Recruiting is a visible and important part of the MBA experience. But after decades working with business school graduates, Stacy Blackman has noticed something more interesting: the most meaningful MBA outcomes rarely follow a straight line. That's the premise behind Paths Less Traveled, a new B-Schooled podcast series launching this week. Each episode features conversations with MBA alumni whose careers evolved in unexpected directions over time. These aren't "first job after school" stories. They're about optionality, reinvention, and what happens when you treat the MBA as a long-term foundation rather than a short-term placement service. The series kicks off with Paul Earle, a Northwestern University Kellogg School of Management alum and Stacy's former classmate, who went on to found one of the fastest-growing emerging consumer brands in the U.S. His company, GOODLES, reimagines mac and cheese as a better-for-you product, and his current obsession is the Thrilled Cheese variety. But the conversation goes deeper than product launches. Paul reflects on what business school actually gave him: "I barely remember the technical classroom frameworks and methods and models. I vividly remember the friends I made and perspectives I gained and world I discovered. One of the best things I have ever done." It's a perspective that reframes what ROI on an MBA can actually look like, and one that applicants don't always encounter early in the process. If you've been thinking about the MBA primarily in terms of your first post-graduation role, this series is worth your time.
What makes for a good entrepreneur in today's start-up landscape? How do you work to scale and when is it right to go from bootstrapping to seeking funding? How are the roots of innovation now fundamentally different than the dot com era? Lori Rosenkopf is a Professor of Management and also the Vice Dean of Entrepreneurship at the Wharton School, San Francisco campus. She is also the author of the book Unstoppable Entrepreneurs: 7 Paths for Unleashing Successful Startups and Creating Value through Innovation. Greg and Lori discuss Lori's focus on Wharton's student and alumni entrepreneurial ecosystem, and she explains how entrepreneurship skills overlap with the innovation inside large organizations and universities. Lori describes seven entrepreneurial pathways and six “Rs” that reflect an entrepreneurial mindset, emphasizing that many successful entrepreneurs first build industry experience in standard careers rather than launching ventures immediately after school. Their conversation covers how Wharton's curriculum has evolved over time, adding majors and coursework in entrepreneurship, innovation, analytics, and now AI; experiential learning; venture pitching for credit. Greg asks how the Venture Acceleration Lab helps expose students to scaling alumni ventures. Lori and Greg discuss different stereotypes of entrepreneurs, and Lori touches on why alumni and industry-affiliation networks remain powerful, how innovation increasingly happens through ecosystems, partnerships, and acquisitions rather than in-house R&D, and the continuing importance of universities in basic science commercialization, including Penn's Pennovation initiative and strong biomedical startup activity. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: The stereotype of a unicorn founder 17:18: I think that we have grown accustomed to a stereotype, which is, let us name them out, college dropout. Young. Venture capital backed tech, unicorn, great personal and commercial wealth. And now we are depending on them for philanthropy. We can have a whole discussion just about whether that is a good thing or not. But that is sort of the image. Is there a way people can cultivate their resilience? 32:00: Resilience, it can come from being in love with your problem and wanting to solve that so deeply. Now it has to be a problem that enough of the marketplace shares that they are willing to think about your solution. But people who want to solve a problem are going to claim lots and lots of different ways to attack it. And this is what entrepreneurs are constantly dealing with, negative feedback and challenges. In many cases, it is very rare that companies of ventures first offering is something that everybody falls in love with. What has Lori learned about information diffusion over 30 years of research? 11:17: I think that as we have gone to where more digital products and services, that it gives us the opportunity to build up these bigger ecosystems where different parties are collaborating in a variety. So it might be as extreme as acquisitions. And that is not just happening when Apple, that is CPG companies are buying little startups where people have developed new grants that are cool. They are partnering in many cases, so they may not be a full on acquisition, but there will be a contractual set of arrangements and maybe a conformance to a standard, as well. So that has become more and more common, and the idea that any one firm can invent everything in house, I think it does feel a little bit passé, you know, like rate of change is getting quicker and quicker.

Milan chose the left, where streams reflected the sun's rays.Sr: "Можда ти знаш боље," смејала се Јелена, "али ја волим изазове!En: "Maybe you know better," Jelena laughed, "but I love challenges!"Sr: "Милан се смејао са њом, схвативши да разлика у мишљењима може бити пријатељска и лако решена.En: Milan laughed with her, realizing that differences in opinions can be friendly and easily resolved.Sr: "Можемо обоје истражити.En: "We can explore both.Sr: Несрећа неће ни нас преварити.En: Misfortune won't deceive us either."Sr: "Одлучише да заједно наставе, мењајући стазе како срце жели.En: They decided to continue together, changing paths as their hearts desired.Sr: Кроз забаву и разговор, њихова веза је јачала.En: Through fun and conversation, their bond strengthened.Sr: Милан је осетио нову сигурност, а Јелена је разумела шарм непромишљених сусрета.En: Milan felt a new confidence, and Jelena understood the charm of unplanned encounters.Sr: Када су стигли до краја стазе, посматрали су усидрени бродове на конгруенцији Саве и Дунава, осетивши смиреност и велику захвалност за дан који нису планирали и једно друго.En: When they reached the end of the path, they observed the moored boats at the confluence of the Sava and Danube, feeling calm and greatly thankful for a day they hadn't planned and for each other.Sr: Тихо, са много више самопоуздања него на почетку, Милан предложи:"Можемо наставити дружење.En: Quietly, with far more confidence than at the start, Milan suggested: "We can continue hanging out.Sr: Теби се свидео парк, а ја сам уживао у твојем друштву.En: You enjoyed the park, and I enjoyed your company."Sr: "Јелена климну главом, јер у овом дану, и у овом парку, нашли су нешто више од пуке шетње.En: Jelena nodded, because on this day, and in this park, they found more than just a stroll.Sr: Нашли су ново пријатељство.En: They found a new friendship.

In a world obsessed with self-discovery, many people cycle through different phases trying to figure out who they really are. The answer isn't found in fashion trends or self-help mantras, but in understanding one fundamental question: Who is your shepherd? Christianity isn't just a part of us—it IS us, as we are made in the image of God. When we truly make the Lord our shepherd, as described in Psalm 23, we surrender control and receive His complete provision, soul restoration, and guidance through life's valleys. This requires dying to ourselves daily and trusting God's leadership in every area of our lives. Our true identity is found not in worldly pursuits, but in Christ, who has carved our authentic name on a white stone that represents who we were created to be before any lies or trauma touched our lives.Prayers from sermon | The Path to Green Pastures:· The Lord Is My Shepherd…Declaration #1: The Lord is MY Shepherd. I give him all control and authority over my life. Forgive me for trying to take the lead when I should be following. Amen· I Have All That I Need – He let's me rest in green meadows; He leads me beside peaceful streams…Declaration #2: God, I thank you that your word says that you will supply all of my need according to your riches in glory. I have all that I need in Your care. Since you have been faithful to a thousand generations and because you are the same yesterday, today, and forever I can trust that you will be faithful to me and will never leave me or forsake me. Amen· He Restores My Soul/Leads in Paths of Righteousness…Declaration #3: God, I pray You restore my soul. Give me rest that only You can give. Lead me in pursuit of being more like You. I want more of You in my life.· Though I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Death I will fear no evil. Your rod and staff comfort me…Declaration #4: God, I know I am your child. I need You in my valley moments. I know these times will shape me. I know this is not meaningless. I trust You, even when I don't understand it. I know that I can't be separated from Your love. Amen· You Anoint My Head with Oil, My Cup Overflows, Surely Goodness & Mercy Shall Follow Me, I Shall Dwell in the House of the Lord Forever…Declaration #5: Dear Jesus. Forgive me of my sins. Come into my life and help me follow You. I believe that you died, and you were raised from the dead. I surrender myself to you. Lead me now, and into eternity. Amen.

In this podcast episode, Darlene Goehl joins ‘The Stream by AASHTO' to discuss the joint work of the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) with Texas Department of Transportation in building Monarch Flight Diverters or MFDs – a series of tall, mesh barriers placed along busy roads that motivate the butterflies to fly above the roadway, well above vehicles traveling on the highway below. Researchers have noted sharp declines in Monarch populations, specifically during their migration periods in the fall. In some years, researchers found that nearly 3 percent of the Monarch's fall migratory population were lost after being struck by vehicles traveling on roads; this number represents about half of the population decline in a given year. Goehl discusses the importance of monarch butterflies to the ecology and cultural symbology of the southern U.S. and northern Mexico, the role of transportation, and how TTI identifies “hot spots” for Monarch roadkill. From there, Goehl explains the implementation and feasibility of MFDs in Texas and how the project will fare into the future. This podcast series is part of the AASHTO Environmental Management technical service program operated by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials. It explores a wide array of environmental topics that affect state departments of transportation and the infrastructure programs they oversee.

We recently completed Chapter 6 of the Bhagavad Gita — a raw and honest moment where Arjuna admits, "My mind is more restless than the wind." But before we dive into Chapter 7 (where everything shifts), I want to pause and explore an important question that naturally arises right here: How do the yogic teachings on Ananda (bliss) compare to the Christian understanding of grace — and why do these two paths feel so different in the body? This episode is a bridge — between effort and surrender, empowerment and comfort, self-regulation and devotion — as we explore this question from a comparative, academic, and curious lens. This is not to prescribe belief, but to deepen understanding and set the stage for what's coming next in the Gita.
On this episode of Clemenz With a “Z,” I'm stepping outside my usual conversations about church and control and into something that's been quietly sitting with me for years: the way we define success for our kids. Every June, neighborhoods fill with yard signs celebrating college commitments, and I can't help but ask, where are the yard signs for future carpenters? In this episode, I reflect on my own high school experience with “two tracks,” the subtle tone that labeled one path as less than, what I saw later as a teacher, and why all of this ultimately comes down to purpose. Drawing on Viktor Frankl and even a surprising moment from Home Improvement, this conversation isn't anti-college, it's about dignity, meaning, and making room for every kind of intelligence. Because not every boy wants to build… but every boy deserves a world that believes he could.

In this episode of Creation's Paths, we sit with Jesus' stark warning that we cannot serve both God and Mammon. This is not a simplistic rejection of money, but a deeper unveiling of allegiance.

Unmade is a space for the woman who knows that in order to keep choosing her highest, most free, most abundant, most joyful timeline over and over she must also allow herself to be unmade.Hosted by Katy Stuart, spiritual business mentor and modern priestess, this show explores the intersection of high-level business strategy, wealth, identity, and ancient wisdom. It is for women who are building powerful, profitable businesses while also walking a path of deep spiritual remembrance. This podcast exists at the intersection of strategy, money, identity, and ancient wisdom. Here we explore what it truly means to unmake the versions of yourself that were shaped by conditioning, survival, expectation, and fear, so that you can become the woman you were always meant to be at a soul level.Inside Unmade, we speak about building wealth and legacy as a woman in a way that is cyclical, embodied, and deeply aligned. We explore feminine leadership, archetype, myth, and the reclamation of ancient priestess and witch lineages alongside highly strategic, grounded conversations about scaling a business, creating $20k to $100k months, and designing a life that feels expansive, beautiful, and free.You will hear conversations on topics such as identity and the spiral of becoming, the intersection of spirituality and high-level strategy, wealth, power, and feminine leadership, the Wheel of the Year and cyclical business, death and rebirth as catalysts for expansion, archetypes, mythology, and past-life remembrance, living and leading as a modern priestess in the world, and creating a life that feels like art.Unmade is for the woman who is no longer available for smallness, who is ready to step into her next era of power, visibility, and devotion to her work.You can join Katy in her year-long business + spirituality immersion here: THE EXPERIENCEHer highest-level Private + Mastermind Hybrid for women scaling to $20-$50k+months here: ATELIERPrivate mentorship: HEREOr find out more about how to join her in Paris: RENAISSANCE + VIP
Christianity doesn't do well with erotic love. The unease stems, in part, from the fact that the word “eros” doesn't appear in the New Testament. The lacuna means that points of reference for discussions about sex are typically inadequate and thin. Command stands in for clear thinking.Then, there is Saint Paul's remark: “marry if you must” (1 Cor 7:8-9). His ambivalence has resulted in sexual relationships being hidden in marriage, hoping that there, they do less harm than good. Lady Hillingdon's remark comes to mind, to lie back and think of England - the wit glossing oceans of suffering.That said, there are remarkable exceptions to the handwashing, of which, in the Christian West, the shining example is The Divine Comedy. Dante's understanding of the way romantic love can initiate a path to God is fearless, instructive and, because intrepid, transformative. We need it now for, as William Blake observed, “Our wars are wars of life & wounds of love.”For more on Mark and his book about Dante's Divine Comedy - www.markvernon.com

In the early 2000s, Sunil Nakrani felt stuck. Back then, websites crashed all the time. When Sunil noticed this, he decided he was going to fix the internet. But after nearly a year of studying the architecture of the web, he was no closer to an answer. In desperation, Sunil sent out a raft of cold emails to engineering professors. He hoped someone, anyone, could help him figure this out. Eventually, he learned that the internet could only be fixed if he paid attention to the humble honeybee. This is the story of the Honeybee Algorithm: How tech used honeybees to build the internet as we know it.Special thanks to John Bartholdi, John Vande Vate, Sammy Ramsey, James Marshall, Steve Strogatz, Duc Pham, and Heiko Hamann.We found out about this story thanks to our friends at AAAS, who run the one and only Golden Goose Awards. The award goes to government funded science that sounds trivial or bizarre, but goes on to change the world. The Honeybee Algorithm won a Golden Goose Award back in 2016 (https://www.goldengooseaward.org/01awardees/honey-bee-algorithm). Thank you to our friends there: Erin Heath, Gwendolyn Bogard, Valeria Sabate, Joanne Padron Carney, and Meredith Asbury.

CardioNerds (Dr. Ramy Doss, Dr. Kelly Arps, and Dr. Naima Maqsood) dive into the nuances of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation with Dr. Jon Piccini. They provide a high-yield overview of AF ablation, guiding listeners from patient selection through post-procedural management. We review appropriate candidacy for catheter ablation across AF phenotypes, key elements of pre-procedural evaluation including imaging and anticoagulation strategy, and the fundamental procedural steps with pulmonary vein isolation as the cornerstone. The discussion compares lesion set strategies in de novo ablation and reviews currently used energy sources—including radiofrequency, cryoablation, and pulsed-field ablation—highlighting differences in safety and efficacy. They also examine surgical and hybrid approaches for selected patients and outline essential components of post-ablation care, including rhythm monitoring, anticoagulation decisions, and management of complications. This episode integrates contemporary evidence with practical insights to support clinicians delivering comprehensive AF ablation care. Audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds intern Dr. Bhavya Shah. NOTE: This episode was recorded in March 2025. Since then, the OCEAN trial showed that among patients who had had successful catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation at least 1 year earlier and had risk factors for stroke, treatment with rivaroxaban did not result in a significantly lower incidence of a composite of stroke, systemic embolism, or new covert embolic stroke than treatment with aspirin.

Love and grief connect us to one other, but grief is a topic most people prefer to avoid. When someone is grieving it seems impossible to find the words needed to comfort them. We rush past condolences for fear of saying or doing the wrong thing. We are unwilling to simply sit alongside another and hold space for their pain. Most people are walking around with hearts full of grief that no one is willing to bear witness to, which makes the experience all the more lonely. And it's not just the grief of death that we carry, it's the grief that comes with life… Paths we didn't take, opportunities that passed us by, dreams tucked away and forgotten, words we failed to speak, harms we've see done to others… to live is to grieve. If we can learn to hold space for grief, we open our hearts to love and live more fully and fiercely. In order to do this, we must give grief a seat at the table. Are you willing to pull out a chair?

A @Christadelphians Video: Discussion: The Bible is a book ahead of its time in describing parts of the natural world. Scientific discoveries have endorsed the Bible facts. Some science 'facts' have been modified over time as later discoveries have shown earlier conclusions were wrong, and the Bible was always right. Talk concluded with a useful Q and A session.Is the Bible an outdated book of fables, exposed by modern science? Or does scientific discovery actually point toward the truth of Scripture? In this thought-provoking presentation, we explore the dynamic relationship between science and the Bible.We examine compelling examples where the Bible anticipated scientific discoveries, from ocean currents to the water cycle. The discussion reveals how science and faith are not enemies, but can be complementary ways of understanding our world. We also consider what happens when we place our faith entirely in human wisdom and what outstanding truths the Bible provides that science alone cannot.Join us for an insightful and expositional talk that strengthens the foundation for a faith built on both observation and revelation.

Margo is joined by Ashley Lohr, an artist, educator, and community builder based in Petersburg, Alaska—a small fishing island town where she has taught art for nearly two decades. Working across painting and enamel jewelry, Ashley has built a creative life rooted in place, curiosity, and long-term commitment. From sustaining robust school art programs to teaching workshops far beyond the classroom, her path is a testament to what can unfold when artists design lives that support both their work and their values. Ashley shares how moving to Alaska at 23 shaped her identity as both a teacher and artist, how she continues to grow her own practice alongside full-time teaching, and what she learned from intentionally stepping away during a self-created sabbatical. In this conversation, we discuss: Moving to Petersburg, Alaska for a teaching job—and how place can deeply shape creative alignment Teaching art in ways that feel authentic, expansive, and student-centered How Ashley builds, sustains, and evolves art programs within a school setting Maintaining a personal art practice alongside full-time teaching and family life Taking a self-designed sabbatical and what it revealed about community, creativity, and pace Teaching outside the classroom: workshops, travel, and non-gallery ways to share work Finding and proposing workshop opportunities—locally and farther afield Trusting a slow, steady creative path and allowing your work to change over time Connect with Ashley: Website: https://ashleylohrart.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/ashleylohrart Connect with Margo: Website: www.windowsillchats.com Instagram: @windowsillchats www.patreon.com/inthewindowsill https://www.yourtantaustudio.com/thefoundry
In a podcast recorded at ITEXPO / MSP EXPO, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Mike Ryan, CEO of SpiceX, about how low-code and no-code platforms are reshaping automation, integration, and revenue opportunities for MSPs and channel partners. The conversation focused on how SpiceX enables organizations to connect data, systems, and AI tools through visual workflow design rather than traditional software development. Ryan described SpiceX as a platform designed to remove complexity from integration and orchestration. “We make it stupid simple for an organization to connect and structure all of their data and then use drag-and-drop workflows to automate it,” he said. Built to be business-user friendly, the platform allows MSPs to design and deploy solutions without requiring deep coding expertise, accelerating time to value for both service providers and their customers. For MSPs, Ryan emphasized that the real opportunity lies in applying domain expertise rather than writing code. MSPs bring industry-specific knowledge—such as healthcare, background screening, or public sector workflows—and use SpiceX to build repeatable, branded solutions that can scale across multiple customers. According to Ryan, some partners have leveraged this approach to expand rapidly, even acquiring competitors by productizing their automation offerings. The discussion also touched on AI and the growing challenge of “shadow AI” inside organizations. Ryan noted that SpiceX enables MSPs and enterprises to safely connect approved AI tools into structured workflows, helping future-proof operations while maintaining control. As adoption accelerates, he positioned low-code automation as a practical way for MSPs, channel partners, and enterprises to turn complexity into scalable services and new revenue streams.

Story Transcript:Ca: Els primers raigs del sol es reflectien sobre les formes escarpades de la muntanya de Montserrat, pintant els cims amb una llum daurada.En: The first rays of the sun reflected off the rugged shapes of the Montserrate mountain, painting the peaks with a golden light.Ca: Pau, amb una motxilla a l'esquena, decidia aquell matí deixar enrere la solitud i unir-se a un grup de caminants.En: Pau, with a backpack on his back, decided that morning to leave solitude behind and join a group of hikers.Ca: Buscava una mica de pau interior i claredat en aquell indret màgic.En: He was looking for a bit of inner peace and clarity in that magical place.Ca: La feina, les presses de la ciutat, li pesaven a l'ànima.En: Work, the hustle and bustle of the city, weighed on his soul.Ca: Montserrat era el seu refugi.En: Montserrat was his refuge.Ca: Mentrestant, Aina, una ànima aventurera amb moltes ganes de descobrir món, es preparava per a la seva pròpia aventura.En: Meanwhile, Aina, an adventurous soul eager to discover the world, was preparing for her own adventure.Ca: Sempre havia cregut que els viatges es feien memorables gràcies a les persones que un trobava pel camí.En: She had always believed that journeys became memorable thanks to the people one met along the way.Ca: Així que aquella decisió d'apropar-se i parlar amb en Pau no va ser difícil, malgrat l'ombra de la seva última decepció.En: So the decision to approach and talk to Pau wasn't difficult, despite the shadow of her last disappointment.Ca: Durant el camí, el grup avançava pels camins serpentejants.En: Along the way, the group was advancing along the winding paths.Ca: Els pins verdes i el silenci, només interromput pel vent, creaven un ambient de calma.En: The green pines and the silence, only interrupted by the wind, created an atmosphere of calm.Ca: Pau escoltava les històries d'altres excursionistes, però pocs cops intervenia.En: Pau listened to the stories of other hikers, but rarely intervened.Ca: El passat pesava, i obrir-se a nous amics no era fàcil.En: The past weighed heavy, and opening up to new friends wasn't easy.Ca: Va ser quan el grup es deturava prop d'un vell monestir quan Aina va aprofitar per acostar-se a Pau.En: It was when the group stopped near an old monastery that Aina seized the opportunity to approach Pau.Ca: “Hola, sóc l'Aina,” va dir amb un somriure.En: "Hello, I'm Aina," she said with a smile.Ca: Pau, sorprès per l'energia d'ella, va respondre cordialment.En: Pau, surprised by her energy, responded cordially.Ca: Els primers instants van ser tímids, però Aina, amb la seva curiositat natural, va saber com trencar aquell gel.En: The first moments were shy, but Aina, with her natural curiosity, knew how to break the ice.Ca: Poc a poc, la confiança entre els dos es va fer més gran.En: Gradually, the trust between the two grew.Ca: A la tarda, mentre caminaven cap al cim per veure la posta, Aina va animar Pau a compartir les seves preocupacions.En: In the afternoon, as they were walking towards the summit to watch the sunset, Aina encouraged Pau to share his concerns.Ca: Ell, a contracor al principi, va començar a parlar.En: He, reluctantly at first, began to speak.Ca: Les paraules li sortien com un riu, sense pausa.En: The words came out like a river, without pause.Ca: Aina escoltava amb atenció, compartint també les seves pors de formar vincles que fossin efímers.En: Aina listened attentively, also sharing her fears about forming bonds that might be fleeting.Ca: Quan van arribar al cim, el sol es ponia majestuós darrere les muntanyes.En: When they reached the summit, the sun set majestically behind the mountains.Ca: Els colors càlids del capvespre cremaven els cims de Montserrat.En: The warm colors of the sunset set the peaks of Montserrat ablaze.Ca: Allà, a dalt, la mà d'Aina va trobar la de Pau.En: There, on top, Aina's hand found Pau's.Ca: Junt amb la bellesa del moment, van compartir les seves històries.En: Along with the beauty of the moment, they shared their stories.Ca: Van trobar punts comuns, revelacions interiors i, potser, un camí nou.En: They found common ground, inner revelations, and perhaps a new path.Ca: Després de baixar la muntanya, amb el fred intens de l'hivern acompanyant-los, Pau i Aina van acordar continuar en contacte.En: After descending the mountain, with the intense winter cold accompanying them, Pau and Aina agreed to stay in touch.Ca: Barcelona no semblava tan lluny, i unes hores van semblar res entre els seus plans futuristes.En: Barcelona didn't seem so far away, and a few hours felt like nothing amid their futuristic plans.Ca: En tornar a la seva rutina, tant Pau com Aina sabien que alguna cosa havia canviat.En: Returning to their routine, both Pau and Aina knew something had changed.Ca: Ell, més disposat a viure experiències noves i a establir connexions; ella, agraint la importància dels moments breus però profunds.En: He was more willing to live new experiences and make connections; she appreciated the importance of brief but profound moments.Ca: La muntanya de Montserrat els havia unit en una història que prometia ser més que un

Pearls The Denervated Heart: The donor heart is surgically severed from the autonomic nervous system, leading to a higher resting heart rate (90-110 bpm) due to loss of vagal tone. Because the heart relies on circulating catecholamines rather than neural input to increase heart rate, patients experience a delayed chronotropic response to exercise and stress. Importantly, because afferent pain fibers are severed, ischemia is often painless. Rejection Surveillance: Rejection is classified into Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR), which is T-cell mediated, and Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR), which is B-cell mediated. While endomyocardial biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis, non-invasive surveillance using gene-expression profiling (e.g., AlloMap) and donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is increasingly utilized to reduce the burden of invasive procedures. The Infection Timeline: The risk of infection follows a predictable timeline based on the intensity of immunosuppression. The first month is dominated by nosocomial infections. Months one through six are the peak for opportunistic infections (Cytomegalovirus, Pneumocystis, Toxoplasmosis) requiring prophylaxis. After six months, patients are primarily at risk for community-acquired pathogens, though late viral reactivation can occur. Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV): Unlike native coronary artery disease, CAV presents as diffuse, concentric intimal thickening that affects the entire length of the vessel, including the microvasculature. Due to denervation, patients rarely present with angina; instead, CAV manifests as unexplained heart failure, fatigue, or sudden cardiac death. Malignancy Risk: Long-term immunosuppression significantly increases the risk of malignancy. Skin cancers (squamous and basal cell) are the most common, followed by Post-Transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD), which is often driven by Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) reactivation. Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Patlolla 1. What are the unique physiological features of the transplanted heart? The hallmark of the transplanted heart is denervation. Because the autonomic nerve fibers are severed during harvest, the heart loses parasympathetic or vagal tone, resulting in a resting tachycardia (typically 90-110 bpm). The heart also loses the ability to mount a reflex tachycardia; thus, the heart rate response to exercise or hypovolemia relies on circulating catecholamines, which results in a slower “warm-up” and “cool-down” period during exertion. 2. What are the pillars of maintenance immunosuppression regimen? The triple drug maintenance regimen typically consists of: Calcineurin Inhibitor (CNI): Tacrolimus is preferred over cyclosporine. Key side effects include nephrotoxicity, hypertension, tremor, hyperkalemia, and hypomagnesemia. Antimetabolite: Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) inhibits lymphocyte proliferation. Key side effects include leukopenia and GI distress. Corticosteroids: Prednisone is used for maintenance but is often weaned to low doses or discontinued after the first year to mitigate metabolic side effects (diabetes, osteoporosis, weight gain). 3. How is rejection classified and diagnosed? Rejection is the immune system’s response to the foreign graft and is categorized by the arm of the immune system involved: Acute Cellular Rejection (ACR): Mediated by T-lymphocytes infiltrating the myocardium. It is graded from 1R (mild) to 3R (severe) based on the extent of infiltration and myocyte damage. Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR): Mediated by B-cells producing donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) that attack the graft endothelium. It is diagnosed via histology (capillary swelling) and immunofluorescence (C4d staining). Diagnosis has historically relied on endomyocardial biopsy. However, non-invasive tools are gaining traction. Gene Expression Profiling (GEP) assesses the expression of genes associated with immune activation to rule out rejection in low-risk patients. Donor-Derived Cell-Free DNA (dd-cfDNA) measures the fraction of donor DNA in the recipient’s blood. Elevated levels suggest graft injury which can occur in both ACR and AMR. 4. What is the timeline of infectious risk and how does it guide prophylaxis? Infectious risk correlates with the net state of immunosuppression. < 1 Month (Nosocomial): Risks include surgical site infections, catheter-associated infections, and aspiration pneumonia. 1 – 6 Months (Opportunistic): This is the period of peak immunosuppression. Patients are at risk for PJP, CMV, Toxoplasma, and fungal infections. Prophylaxis typically includes Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole (for PJP/Toxo) and Valganciclovir (for CMV, dependent on donor/recipient serostatus). > 6 Months (Community-Acquired): As immunosuppression is weaned, the risk profile shifts toward community-acquired respiratory viruses (Influenza, RSV) and pneumonias. However, patients with recurrent rejection requiring boosted immunosuppression remain at risk for opportunistic pathogens. 5. How does Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV) differ from native CAD? CAV is the leading cause of late graft failure. Unlike the focal, eccentric plaques seen in native atherosclerosis, CAV is an immunologically driven process causing diffuse, concentric intimal hyperplasia. It affects both epicardial vessels and the microvasculature. Because of this diffuse nature, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is often technically difficult and provides only temporary palliation. The only definitive treatment for severe CAV is re-transplantation. Surveillance is critical and is typically performed via annual coronary angiography, often using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to detect early intimal thickening before it is visible on the angiogram.

What do you do mentally when something hard hits your life?In this episode, Jerrad shares a real moment from his day—going from gratitude and joy to panic when his email was hacked and multiple problems hit at once. He reflects on two familiar mental paths many men walk: catastrophizing and numbing.But healing often means cutting a new path.Using a powerful backpacking metaphor, Jerrad explores how men can stop defaulting to fear and escape, and instead learn to walk the quieter, harder path of gospel truth.Practice for today:Ask yourself: When life gets hard, what are the well-worn paths in my mind—and are they leading me toward healing or away from it?Because strong families begin with healed men.
