SummaryThe latest episode of the Startup Junkies podcast shines a spotlight on the enduring legacy and forward-thinking strategies of ACC Capital (formerly Arkansas Capital Corporation). Host Caleb Talley, joined by Jeff Amerine, welcomes Sam Walls, who shares the rich history and impact of ACC in Arkansas's entrepreneurial ecosystem.From its inception in the 1950s, ACC played a pivotal role in driving economic development and entrepreneurship in a state once plagued by poverty and limited capital. Sam details how ACC, born out of the vision of leaders like Winthrop Rockefeller, became a “third leg” in supporting capital needs, working alongside the state and private sector to bring manufacturing to Arkansas. Over the decades, ACC expanded its services, from pioneering SBA and USDA-guaranteed lending to launching Arkansas's first in-state SBIC venture capital fund and leading initiatives like the Governor's Cup business plan competition.Additionally, the episode highlights ACC's bold leap into the federal EB-5 immigrant investor program, which contributed nearly six hundred million dollars to transformative projects like Big River Steel in Mississippi County. For those passionate about economic development, this episode is an inspiring look at how steady vision and adaptability can create lasting impact.

Persistent prayer reveals the heart of God as a loving Father. While we often want instant answers, God uses seasons of waiting to grow our trust and draw us closer to Him, always giving us what we truly need. Instead of giving up when answers feel delayed, we are invited to come to Him with boldness, persistence, and faith. So how do we wait well, and pray in season?

Attending a conference, a woman noticed that her friend—the day’s presenter—didn’t look well. She approached the presenter, who replied, “I’m going to get through this presentation. If I don’t feel better in the morning, I’ll go to the doctor.” The woman didn’t forget about the presenter’s promise. And although she had to leave the conference early, she asked another friend to check on her. In the morning, there was a knock at the presenter’s hotel door. The second friend had come to drive her to the hospital. There was no backing out and—fortunately—she was given life-saving treatments in time. The persistence of friends apparently helped to save her life. Persistent friends can be a blessing, just like the men in Mark 2. They’d apparently heard about the healing power of Jesus and that He’d come to their town (v. 1). The people clamored to Christ and there was “no room left” for the men to get their paralyzed friend to Him (v. 2). They didn’t let a crowd stop them from getting their friend the help he needed, however: “They made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered . . . the man” (v. 4) to Christ who healed him (vv. 11-12). Let’s bring the needs of others to Jesus through persistent prayer. And as He provides what we need, let’s strive to help and love them well.

Alisa is on fire with a message that's resonating with so many: understanding and finding peace with both food noise—the mental chatter around eating—and body noise—the persistent thoughts about how we look and show up in the world. In this episode, she breaks down why these inner messages exist, how they connect to deeper feelings of safety, and what it takes to respond with awareness, truth, and grace. What You'll Learn: What food noise really is: Persistent mental chatter about food that can feel overwhelming. Why it exists: Not all food noise is bad! Hunger is actually a gift—a signal from your body to nourish yourself. The 7 forms of hunger: From true, homeostatic hunger to emotional, social, environmental, habitual, survival, and reward hunger. Understanding which is which can help you respond with awareness rather than guilt. The connection to safety: Increased food noise often points to a deeper sense of insecurity or loss of safety. Body noise: Continual thoughts about our appearance and how we look, and why awareness is the first step in responding differently. Soul work: How sin and brokenness in our world have disrupted our connection to God, ourselves, and others, and why body and food struggles often show up the moment we feel "something is wrong" with our bodies. Hope in community: RW+ offers a space to explore, process, and grow together. Scripture Highlight: Genesis 3:9 reminds us that God seeks us even in our brokenness—and invites us into healing, not shame.

Affordability may be the defining word of 2026. After years of elevated inflation, a housing affordability crisis, and signs of softness in the labor market, many Americans are feeling squeezed—and looking for answers. You can expect this issue to loom large at the polls in November. That's why state and federal lawmakers should confront one of the central drivers of this “unaffordable” economy: fiscal irresponsibility. Persistent overspending helps fuel inflation and adds uncertainty that holds back growth. It's time to get serious about sustainable budgeting and pro-growth policies that expand opportunity—so Americans can find well-paid jobs, secure affordable housing, and afford daily life again.In today's This Week's Economy, I take an honest look at the latest economic data—even where it challenges media narratives. We'll also examine the risks of a rising push for social media bans and why energy abundance is essential to powering our technological future.Let's dive in!

The Nations Are Commanded to PraisePsalm 117:1–2Praise is not invitation, it is command.Refusal to acknowledge Yahuah is not neutrality, it is insubordination.His mercy toward Israel is public witness to the world, and His truth does not expire.2. Covenant Categories and Fear of YahuahPsalm 118:1–4Israel.House of Aaron.Those who fear Yahuah.Covenant identity is defined, not assumed.Fear distinguishes the loyal from the indifferent.3. Trust in Yahuah or Functional IdolatryPsalm 118:5–9“It is better to trust in Yahuah than to put confidence in man.”Trust reveals allegiance.Persistent confidence in man over Yahuah becomes functional idolatry.Deliverance confirms ownership.4. Correction, Not AbandonmentPsalm 118:15–18Yahuah chastens but does not immediately give over to destruction.Correction is mercy.But correction despised invites removal.5. The Gate of Righteousness and Restricted AccessPsalm 118:19–21Entrance is not automatic.“The righteous shall enter.”Access belongs to the aligned, not the self-justified.6. The Rejected Stone and Divine VerdictPsalm 118:22–23The stone rejected by builders becomes the cornerstone.Rejection by men does not cancel Yahuah's decree.Those who reject what He establishes remove themselves from the structure.7.

Why is abundant global capital is not translating into stronger productive investment, and what role the G20 can play in shaping a more resilient and sustainable capital flows framework in an increasingly fragmented global economy?Global finance has demonstrated considerable resilience despite persistent economic uncertainty, geopolitical tension and worsening debt dynamics. Capital flows and investment remain central to economic performance - particularly in emerging and developing economies.Yet assets held by non-bank financial institutions have expanded rapidly, reaching an estimated US$250 trillion, around 400% of GDP in advanced economies. At the same time, real investment as a share of GDP across many emerging and advanced economies has stagnated or declined since the 2008 global financial crisis.Persistent frictions, coordination failures and mispriced risk continue to constrain capital mobilisation for productivity-enhancing investment. Closing this gap is critical for long-term growth and sustainable development.If capital is abundant, why is productive investment lagging? And in an increasingly fragmented global economy, what role can the G20 play in shaping a more resilient and sustainable capital flows framework?GuestsSara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODI GlobalAli Cakiroglou, Director of Emerging Markets Research, HSBCMarcello Carvalho, Former Global Chief Economist, BNP ParibasPhyllis Papadavid, Senior Research Fellow, International Economic Development Group, ODI GlobalRelated resourcesTowards a G20 framework for capital flows to EMDEs: informing the UK Presidency (Expert comment, ODI Global)The case for a G20 liquidity shield amid geoeconomic fragmentation (Expert comment, ODI Global)

Nursing education programs across the US continue to face ongoing shortages of nursing faculty. This study examined salary differences between nursing faculty and other nurses using 2022 National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses data and identified specific factors contributing to these disparities. The adjusted annual salary of nursing faculty was $18,346 less than staff nurses, $19,863 less than charge nurses, and $27,526 less than front-line managers. Persistent salary disparities between nursing faculty and other nursing roles discourage nurses from pursuing academic careers. This article is OPEN Access: download the article and share widely.

Cross-posted to LessWrong.Summary History's most destructive ideologies—like Nazism, totalitarian communism, and religious fundamentalism—exhibited remarkably similar characteristics: epistemic and moral certainty extreme tribalism dividing humanity into a sacred “us” and an evil “them” a willingness to use whatever means necessary, including brutal violence. Such ideological fanaticism was a major driver of eight of the ten greatest atrocities since 1800, including the Taiping Rebellion, World War II, and the regimes of Stalin, Mao, and Hitler. We focus on ideological fanaticism over related concepts like totalitarianism partly because it better captures terminal preferences, which plausibly matter most as we approach superintelligent AI and technological maturity. Ideological fanaticism is considerably less influential than in the past, controlling only a small fraction of world GDP. Yet at least hundreds of millions still hold fanatical views, many regimes exhibit concerning ideological tendencies, and the past two decades have seen widespread democratic backsliding. The long-term influence of ideological fanaticism is uncertain. Fanaticism faces many disadvantages including a weak starting position, poor epistemics, and difficulty assembling broad coalitions. But it benefits from greater willingness to use extreme measures, fervent mass followings, and a historical tendency to survive and even thrive amid technological and societal upheaval. Beyond complete victory or defeat, multipolarity may [...] ---Outline:(00:16) Summary(05:19) What do we mean by ideological fanaticism?(08:40) I.

In this episode, we tackle one of the most frustrating and under-discussed parts of ACL rehab: your quad is still smaller months later, and you're wondering if something is wrong. I break down what the research actually shows about quadriceps muscle mass before surgery, immediately after, and even years down the road. We walk through why atrophy starts earlier than most people realize, why surgery creates a second drop, and why full visual symmetry is not guaranteed within 9–12 months. You'll also hear real-world examples from elite athletes, and why even world-class pros with top-tier resources don't always regain identical quad size quickly. We unpack graft type differences, genetics, programming mistakes, and the biological realities that shape muscle recovery. Most importantly, I explain why muscle size and strength are not a perfect one-to-one match using a simple “cup” analogy. Bigger muscle increases potential capacity, but performance depends on more than just volume. If you've been staring at your leg wondering why it still looks different, this episode gives you clarity, normalization, and practical direction on how to approach hypertrophy the right way.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

As cell and gene therapies continue to deliver promising clinical results, manufacturing remains one of the biggest barriers to broader commercialization. Persistent challenges around cost, complexity, labor intensity, and vein-to-vein timelines—particularly for autologous CAR-T therapies—are limiting the industry's ability to scale beyond niche and last-line indications. Addressing these constraints will be critical if CGTs are to move earlier in treatment paradigms and reach more patients globally. In this episode of Off Script, we spoke with Jon Ellis, CEO of Trenchant BioSystems, about the current state of cell and gene therapy manufacturing and where the industry must go next. The conversation explores why traditional centralized manufacturing models are struggling to scale, how automation and digital batch records can significantly compress manufacturing timelines, and how emerging platforms are rethinking cell recovery, analytics integration, and starting material strategies.

In a culture that often treats prayer as a transaction, Jesus invites us into something deeper: persistent prayer as a way of life. Drawing from Luke 11, scripture reframes persistence not as wearing God down, but as remaining with a loving Father who eagerly gives the Holy Spirit to his children. Persistent prayer is less about controlling outcomes and more about growing in intimacy, surrender, and attentiveness to God's presence. As we keep asking, seeking, and knocking, we are formed into people who know God, trust his goodness, and live attuned to the Spirit.

Have you ever prayed with confi dence one day and felt discouraged the next, wondering why nothing seems to change?

Our lives are marked by our priorities, so what we do first communicates something so significant in our lives. The first four words of the Bible, found in Genesis 1:1, say, “In the beginning God…” These words should be our life's motto as they communicate that God came, and should come, before everything else. In this series, we explore how to put God first in prayer, and how to make prayer a priority in our lives.

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) reads an essay about the business of check cashing, a misunderstood industry. He explains why cashing a check is actually a "new credit extension" where the bank bets on both the writer and the payee, and why profit-maximizing institutions often decline to bank individuals who represent even a "material risk" of a single bounced check. From the manual "rituals" of endorsement to the way fintechs like Ingo Money and Cash App use persistent identity to narrow the risk envelope, Patrick examines the technical and social reasons why some people pay to access their own wages, others don't, and whether we can do anything about that.–Full transcript available here: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/check-cashing/–Presenting Sponsor: Mercury Complex Systems is presented by Mercury—radically better banking for founders.

In this Follow-Up episode, Dr. Mona revisits one of the most stressful early parenting experiences, an inconsolable newborn. She breaks down what colic actually means, why the label is often misunderstood, and how to tell the difference between normal newborn fussiness and signs that need medical attention. The goal is not to dismiss crying, but to give parents a framework so they feel informed instead of brushed off. Dr. Mona walks through what's happening developmentally in those early weeks, why many babies hit a fussy peak around 6 weeks, and how to run a calm mental checklist at 2 a.m. She also covers red flags that deserve a pediatric visit, from fever to poor feeding to blood in the stool. Most importantly, this episode centers parents. Fussiness is common, phases pass, and support matters. You are not failing if your baby cries and you can't fix it instantly. You are learning your baby in real time. Key takeaways ✔️ Colic is a real pattern of crying, but it should never replace a thoughtful medical check ✔️ Most newborn fussiness peaks between 2 to 8 weeks and improves with time ✔️ Wet diapers, weight gain, and periods of calm are reassuring signs ✔️ Fever in a baby under 2 months always deserves a call to your pediatrician ✔️ Persistent crying with poor feeding, major spit up, or blood in stool needs evaluation ✔️ Not all crying is hunger, babies also cry from overstimulation and adjustment ✔️ Newborns are not spoiled by being held and comforted ✔️ Parents need pauses too, caring for yourself helps you care for your baby Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

Still looking. Hosted by Steve Nerlich. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Is there anything new on Planet 9? Well, not really and there is some growing skepticism about whether it's really there. Nonetheless, its original proponents, Mike Brown and Konstantin Batygin, still stick to their guns on the matter, though both agree Planet 9's existence must be considered speculative until it is actually observed.   Dear Cheap Astronomy – Is Nemesis really out there? Continuing the theme of hypothetical solar system bodies, Nemesis was proposed to be a small, dim and hence difficult to spot companion star of the Sun. Its existence was proposed in 1984 on the basis of a perceived 27 million year cycle in mass extinction events, where anything cyclical gets people thinking about orbits – and with a 27-million-year periodicity, you need a pretty big orbit.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
