Paul McDonald and Wailer Giles engage in a detailed discussion about the film On A Clear Day, which tells a profound story of a man who is earnestly trying to figure out how to live his life better and find deeper meaning in a world that often feels broken. At the center of this narrative, a son longs deeply for his father's approval, desperately seeking validation and recognition. Conversely, a father yearns for his son's admiration and appreciation, creating a complex dynamic between them. Frank and Rob are both learning how to navigate and cope with their individual grief, yet they find themselves unable to give each other the support they truly need. Ultimately, transformation emerges as the pivotal miracle of the story, symbolizing hope and renewal amidst their struggles.QuestionsWhat are the moments that trigger you? What is the common bond between them?Where do you feel the pull to be resigned to complacency?How have you refused to be pulled into complacency?How are you different from when you were in high school/college?When did you do everything you could do, and still failed?When has someone spoken the hard truths to you?

In news from Ipswich and District Radio Club, WICEN volunteers will head out in the field for the Brisbane Trails Marathon on April 27. It's never too late to offer your services on the day. A minimum of 14 operators are required most with a 4WD and radio equipment to operate in a remote location. Ipswich WICEN also welcomes support from other amateurs in southeast Queensland. Please get in touch with Paul McDonald at VK4PMCPaul@outlook.com I'm John VK4JPM, Secretary of the Darling Downs Radio Club. The Management Committee is busy at work sorting out a few items that need to be addressed - we'll tell you about that at the next meeting, which will be on Monday 14 April. More about that in a second. The John Moyle Field Day was a heap of fun and thanks to all those who came along to help the club get into the history books. It will be a while before we know how we did, but in raw terms, we ran for six hours with four teams across 10, 15, 20 and 40 metres. Given the commercial nature of the site we were on, we also attracted a bit of attention from the public and had more than a few people come over to find out what we were doing. Explaining Amateur Radio to onlookers is one way to increase our numbers. We also had some underbubblers drop by for a squizz: there are members of our club who are on the road to a Foundation Licence, and what better way to get a feel for what structured operating is about than to watch a team of people calling "CQ Contest"? Thanks to Dougal, VK4EKA for being team captain and arranging the main setup - a centre-fed long-wire flown between trees; to Wayne VK4ARW with his quick-erect rotator dipole; and SAM VK4SAM with a most interesting multiband-vertical and an impressive ground plane. The Field Day also gave us a chance to shake out the club's self-contained trailer, designed quite effectively to operate in a mains-free environment. Fortunately, we had good sun and the batteries stayed nice and charged. Redcliffe & Districts Radio Club VK4RC -. Robert Thomson VK4TFN here. REDFEST 25 "Adventures on HF" at 9:00 am on the 12th of April. I'm looking forward to it. Our new venue is: The Deception Bay North State School, Old Bay Road, Deception Bay. Hello, I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and I've been thinking. One area of amateur radio that we don't see mentioned often is one that brought many people into the broader compass of “radio”. A lot of people, these days, associate the introduction of the Citizen's Band Radio Service as being the fillip that gave rise to the many new amateurs who entered via the then Novice licence. The value of Radio Australia to introducing our life and perspectives was well recognised as it had a non-partisan policy of providing news and information and it sought to help people in neighbouring countries. Weather reports, farming tips and English language lessons were all grist for the mill until a few years ago when the plug was pulled. As evidence of its effectiveness, shortly after closing its services several of the frequencies that RA used were adopted by one of the Asian Tigers as their own. In this past week, we have seen the current administration pull the plug on one of the most well-recognised international broadcasters when the USA locked staff out of the Voice of America studios and offices and placed the programming on automatic. My introduction to radio was strengthened by tuning around the dial and listening to these various broadcasters and finding other things like marine traffic, police networks and becoming intrigued by amateur radio, particularly 40m. From that I went on to join the WIA as an Associate Member, Short Wave Listener and eventually I became a full member. Shortwave is still with us and along with scanning of VHF and UHF, it makes a great introduction to the hobby of radio. I'm Geoff Emery VK4ZPP and that's what I think…. how about you?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we embark on our mission to explore the 2009 movie, Star Trek. In Spock and Kirk, we see the tension between two ways we deal with our own emotions. Spock tries to stuff and control his feelings, while Kirk embraces and lives for them. Both pursuits are flawed, and we need to understand two things. It's okay to feel, and we were made for more. Join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Did you prefer Star Wars or Star Trek? Why? Which character resonates with you and why? Spock, who experienced condescension and disregard? Or Kirk, who lived in the shadow of a hero? How do you try to be like your dad? How do you fight his influence on you? If you have siblings, how have you competed with your brothers and sisters? How have they competed with you? How has competition harmed your relationship with them? What no-win situations have you faced? Which decision did you make? How have you settled for a normal life? What does it mean to be dangerous for good? How have you been dangerous for nothing? How have you edited your memories? Your life? What ends up on the cutting room floor?

Join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. About Juan I'm Juan Velazquez, a social media content creator and travel consultant. My love for movies traces back to the dark bodegas in Newark, NJ, where back rooms were filled with VHS tapes for rent in the 80s – long before I mastered tying proper shoelaces, lol. My passion for film deepened at John Burroughs HS in Burbank, CA, and the Los Angeles County College complex by the Warner Bros. movie lot. There, I delved into filmmaking, fostering an appreciation for the art. Today, I indulge in watching, critiquing, and immersing myself in captivating stories on the silver screen. Occasionally, I'll quietly explore my secret hobby of putting pen to paper and crafting short stories.

Statement of Issues Presented for Review, from the Brief of Plaintiff—Appellee Enmax Corporation and Versant Power: 1. Whether the district court abused its discretion by preliminarily enjoining enforcement of 21-A M.R.S. § 1064 (the “Act”), which bars all campaign spending of a domestic corporation if 5% or more of its stock is owned by certain foreign entities or such a foreign entity directly or indirectly participates in its campaign-spending decisions, on the grounds that the Act facially violates the corporation's First Amendment rights. 2. Whether the district court abused its discretion in determining that the Act is expressly preempted by federal law as applied to federal elections when the Act's plain text does not limit its application to state elections. 3. Whether the district court's decision enjoining the Act should be affirmed on two alternative grounds left unaddressed by the district court: (i) the Act violates the United States Constitution's “dormant foreign commerce clause,” Article I, Section 8, Clause 3; and (ii) the Act, as applied to Versant Power, violates its rights under the First Amendment.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we have a special treat as we discuss Stand by Me. The main theme was the closing line—“I never had any friends like I had when I was 12. Does anyone?” This movie is rich with themes of friendship, the loss of innocence, and discovering our true identity. Don't be led by comfort and fear, but join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. For more information on the Jungle Discipleship School, visit https://www.junglediscipleshipschool.com. Questions How do you feel when someone invites themself over? What would it feel like to invite yourself over to a friend's house? What were your friends like when you were 12 (or around that age)? How would you describe them? You? Your relationship? How are your friends different today? How did shame and embarrassment grow during your adolescence? When was the last time you felt like “we knew exactly who we were, and exactly where we were going?” How does fear dominate your curiosity? How do you live in a war zone? How does that impact your ability to be vulnerable and sensitive to others? How were you betrayed during your adolescence/loss of innocence? How would you like to reinvent yourself? What has happened recently that felt overwhelming, or that was out of control? When was the last time you “did something” with a friend, more than just sitting and drinking coffee?

Braveheart is one of my favorite movies of all time. I think I watched it 10 times when it was still in the theaters. This was a really fun, deep conversation with Daniel Schwabauer.

This conversation with Sam Eldredge was one of the most fun conversations I've had at Men at the Movies, so I am pulling The Empire Strikes Back out of the mothballs for this month.  With so many options and themes we could've gone with, we focused on Luke's pursuit of identity.  He had accomplished everything he had dreamed of on Tattoine, but the more success he had, the more it pulled him from his true calling.  It took a supernatural intervention to get him where he needed to go. Never tell me the odds, and lets discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Where do you feel like Luke: adrift without a mentor, training on Dagobah, fighting a battle that's over your head, dealing with the unthinkable? How have you simplified your story into black and white?  Where should there be more gray? What do you tie your legacy to? What's the pinnacle of your existence?  How many decisions do you make?  How often are you doing what others tell you to do? Where do you feel like you're killing it?  How can success pull you away from your true identity? Where do you feel comfortable? What feels risky? Uncertain? Unready? What kind of man do you want to be? What battle do you engage in feeling unprepared? What past mistakes has God redeemed?  How has He created something beautiful from what you regret?

Today, I'm joined by two passionate triathletes, Lisa and Paul McDonald, to discuss his recent experience with the gruelling Ultraman Australia. Lisa was with him all the way and, as a member of the TNA, had the knowledge to equip him for success. Our conversation goes over the whole journey, from training and nutrition planning to the actual race and recovery. So, get ready for some actionable advice on optimising your performance in long-distance triathlons.  For those unfamiliar, Ultraman is no ordinary triathlon. It's split over three days: - Day 1: 10km Swim and 140km Bike Ride - Day 2: 281km Bike Ride - Day 3: 84.4km Double Marathon It's an event that challenges the mental and physical limits of even the most seasoned athletes. Paul explained he had a longtime interest in Ultraman but didn't believe he could achieve those distances at first. However, the more he was exposed to the event as he watched friends compete, the more he realised that these distances were indeed achievable. Going into the race, Paul's primary goal was simple: to have fun. Rather than stressing about achieving the best times, he wanted his focus to be on enjoying the experience.  This laid-back approach worked out well because Paul ended up finishing fifth overall, first in his age group, and was the first service member to cross the line with a total time of 26 hours, 38 minutes, and 49 seconds.   Nutrition was crucial for Paul's success, and that's where Lisa and I came into play. While we don't cover the Ultraman distance in the Triathlon Nutrition Academy, Lisa was able to use what she learned to craft a nutrition plan that could sustain Paul over the three-day event. Here are some of the key points from their approach: - Carbohydrate Targeting: Lisa focused heavily on carbohydrate intake, ensuring Paul stayed fuelled throughout each day. “Always aim higher than you think you need.” - Immediate and Aggressive Recovery Nutrition.: Lisa was there at the finish line each day with recovery meals, ensuring he was refuelling properly. This proactive approach allowed Paul to maintain his energy levels and muscle recovery for the subsequent stages - Avoiding Burnout: Paul's nutrition alternated between real foods (sandwiches, potato gems, bananas, dates) and sports nutrition products. This strategy wasn't just about fuelling but also about keeping meals palatable over three long days. - Flexible Nutrition: The ability to adjust your plan is key. When Paul struggled with his planned nutrition on Day Two, they switched to foods he could tolerate better while still meeting his nutritional targets.   The Importance of a Good CrewAnother significant element of Paul's success was his exceptional support crew, made up of close friends and family. Having experienced people who understood his needs sometimes before he did, took a lot of mental work off his shoulders. They managed everything from the nutritional handovers to emotional support seamlessly, ensuring Paul stayed on track.   So, what's next for Paul? He's eyeing a daunting 240-kilometre ultra-run in the Northern Territory. Lisa is, as always, ready to support him, eager for the next big adventure. And who knows? Maybe another Ultraman is in their future. For now, I hope their story is a powerful example of how proper planning and a well-rounded nutritional strategy can make the seemingly impossible, possible.   LINKS:   Check how well you're doing when it comes to your nutrition with our 50 step checklist to Triathlon Nutrition Mastery: dietitianapproved.com/checklist   Start working on your nutrition now with my Triathlon Nutrition Kickstart course: dietitianapproved.com/kickstart It's for you if you're a triathlete and you feel like you've got your training under control and you're ready to layer in your nutrition.

Coming up on this month's rerun selection, I pulled up Dune (part 1) from January of 2022.  One of the main themes is fear as a motivator.  What do you do when fear attacks, and threatens to take over?  How do you defeat it?  You've got to train, and prepare, even if you don't feel like it. It's in those moments of preparation that victory will be assured.  Questions What can I do now to prepare for the future ahead?  Family traditions? Meals? How can you discipline yourself now to prepare for the dreams God has given you? What obstacles keep you from putting in the preparation for what will come? What dreams do you have?  For your marriage?  For your children?  For work? For friendships?  What must be done today to create the vision you have for the future? What opposition do you face?  What are big ways your faith has been shaken?  How is it shaken in little things as well? Would anyone ask you about the hope you have, or the grouchiness?  What would you tell them? How can you develop the discipline of listening to God? What is your interpretation of the holidays?  Of the upcoming year?  How does God interpret these events? How do you fight for control in the middle of a storm? When was the last time you were angry?  What fear was behind the anger? What verse can be a mantra for you in times of stress and crisis?

Come with me if you want to live and let's discover God's truth in this movie. Resources "You are perfectly designed for this moment.

Welcome to the Men at the Movies rerun series. This conversation originally aired in June 2022, but it's Field of Dreams. It's timeless. In a vibrant life with God, He is always offering invitations to us.  But we must cultivate the conscious awareness to notice when He is speaking.  And when we embrace the risk and act on what he says, the story will always be better than we thought it would be.  So let's follow the voice and go the distance, and discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Where have you heard or experienced God's voice in your life? Where have you done something crazy that didn't make sense to anyone else? How did that turn out? How do you feel if you don't follow the voice? What bold moves God is inviting you to participate in? What are the small moves, the internal shifts, God is inviting you to engage in? What is God up to in your life? Where do you feel like your life is in a small story? Where do you feel fenced in?  Where do you try to make your life larger than it is right now?  When have you heard a voice that sounds like it might be reckless?

Coming up on the men at the movies podcast, we slay some dragons with Reign of Fire. If the dragons are symbols for sin, we see two flawed approaches. For Van Zandt, his life is obsessed with killing dragons and taking back territory in a legalistic manner. Quinn is always on defense and has a defeatist mentality. The problem with both perspectives is that they focus on the dragons, and not life. In the same way, we focus on sin when we should be focused on the Savior. It's time to kick out the squatters, and take some territory back this week on the Men at the Movies podcast. Questions Which approach to sin have you taken in your life? How have you seen one little decision snowball into “thousands” of regrets? Where do you feel helpless from sin? What territory has it taken? What would it look like to take territory back from the dragons in your life? How have you identified by your sin instead of your salvation?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we explore different archetypes of spiritual gifts in Encanto. Mirabel represents those of us who feel invisible, less gifted, and left out. Louisa and Isabel reveal the constant pressure our gifts can create—the pressure to always show up, always be perfect, and always say yes. In Bruno, we see how our gifts can even screw things up, be seen as unhelpful and unwanted. It's only when we learn to value the person over the performance that we can truly be a unified body of Christ. We don't talk about Bruno…but we will as we discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Which character do you resonate with? What are your gifts? How do you use them? What gift do you wish you had? What's behind that desire? How has your role defined your responsibility? Where do you feel left out of the family picture? Where do you feel invisible? Unappreciated? Where do you feel pressure to be perfect? To always show up?
