Michael Kropf koreográfus, balettmester, az Osztrák Tánctanács elnöke, aki pályájának meghatározó évtizedeit Budapesten töltötte. Sőt, a magyar táncművészetben is sikerület történelmet írnia. Bécsben született, ott kezdett balettozni, majd a budapesti Állami Balettintézetben tanult tovább. Táncolt Münchenben, Győrben, a Magyar Állami Operaházban és Kanadában, Budapesten pedig húsz-huszonöt évet élt. Egy súlyos Achilles-sérülés után balettmester lett a Madách Színházban, később koreografálni kezdett. Sokan a Máté Péter emlékére készült kézpantomimból ismerték meg, később pedig körülbelül százhúsz televíziós műsort, valamint hasonló számú opera-, operett-, musical- és balettprodukció fűződött a munkájához. 1995-ben saját együttest alapított, amely később Budapest Balett néven működött, fellépett a Magyar Állami Operaházban és külföldön is. Később a bécsi Volksoper művészeti vezetőjeként, Essenben első balettmesterként, Badenben kilenc éven át balettigazgatóként dolgozott. 2023-ban Karl Musil-díjat kapott, majd az Osztrák Tánctanács elnökévé választották. Különleges történetekből sincs hiány. Műkorcsolyázókat, ritmikus gimnasztikázókat és még bokszolókat is tanított mozgásra, egyebek közt kedves kolléganőm, Kisó, vagyis Kiss Orsinak is ő az egykori balettmestere – akinek lényegében a mai találkozásunkat köszönhetjük. Budapesttel egyébként végig szoros maradt a kapcsolata. Itt él a lánya, van itt egy háza és gyakran hazajár. Ahogyan ő mondja, otthonról hazafelé tart, amikor Bécsből Budapestre érkezik. December 22-én a Volksoper ismét műsorra tűzi a Max und Moritz című balettet, amelynek egyik koreográfusa ő volt. A darabot korábban öt évadon át játszották, ötvenhárom előadással és telt házakkal. Magyarországon is készül új munkára, az Europaballettel és magyar balettnövendékekkel. A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S.

Rieder Gábor művészettörténész, kurátor, a K2 – Kieselbach Kortárs művészeti igazgatója, akivel Budapest új kortárs galériájáról és rögtön két nyitókiállításáról beszélgetünk. A Falk Miksa utca a magyar műkereskedelem egyik régi központja, most pedig egy új kortárs helyszínnel bővült. Gábor a Kieselbach „ikergalériájaként” beszél róla, mert két különböző hangulatú kiállítótérből áll: az egyik egy pincéből kialakított tér, a másik a fölötte lévő félemeleti lakás. A két helyszín egyszerre működik, így egymással párhuzamosan két egészen eltérő kortárs művészeti történetet tudnak bemutatni. Lent Batykó Róbert Cabin Crew című kiállítása rögtön az egyik legaktuálisabb kérdéshez nyúl. Mit kezd a festő a mesterséges intelligenciával? A művész repülőgépek biztonsági kártyáinak figuráit táplálta be a Midjourney egy korai változatába, majd a gép furcsa félreértéseiből, torz alakjaiból és hatujjú figuráiból indult tovább festőként. A sorozat azért is különleges, mert közben azt is megmutatja, milyen elképesztő sebességgel változott az AI képi világa néhányetlen év alatt.Fent egészen más időutazás vár. Az Új színfolt az elmúlt hetven év magyar képzőművészetén keresztül mesél arról, milyen hatása lehet egyetlen színnek. Keserü Ilona 1966-os elementáris pirosa mellett előkerül a Lufthansa kékje is, amely a hatvanas évek végének szürkébb Budapestjén Perneczky Géza számára szinte sokkoló vizuális élmény volt. A kiállítás innen jut el a fluoreszkáló festékeken át egészen a fényt szinte teljesen elnyelő ultrafeketéig. Gábor olyan kiállítási programot épít, ahol a látogató minden alkalommal más kérdéssel találkozhat. A K2 klasszikus művészistálló helyett kollaboratív rendszerben gondolkodik, és inkább egy kisebb kortárs művészeti intézményként szeretne működni, folyamatosan változó témákkal és alkotókkal.

Gallusz Niki színművész, énekesnővel a Barbra Streisand című új előadásról beszélgetünk. A darab október 7-én 19 órakor debütál a Spinoza Színházban, és ezzel indul a 24. Spinoza Zsidó Fesztivál. Niki Barbrát játssza, Tóth Enikő az édesanyját, a rendező Czeizel Gábor. A két szereplős előadás egy hosszú és sok feszültséggel terhelt anya-lánya kapcsolatból indul, és végigköveti, hogyan lett a tizennégy éves brooklyni lányból a világ egyik legismertebb énekes-színésznője. Az anyai kételyek és kritikák végigkísérik az útját, miközben Barbra már egészen fiatalon pontosan tudja, hogy mire készül. Nikihez különösen közel került ez a szerep. Tizenévesen ő is sok kritikát kapott a külsejére, később éppen azokból a jellegzetességekből lett karakter, amelyeket korábban hibának láttak benne. Streisand pályáját régóta figyeli, hallgatta a lemezeit, a próbák előtt dokumentumfilmeket nézett, és olyan figurát játszik, akinek ambícióját, munkabírását és szakmai megszállottságát belülről is érti. Közben sűrű időszakban van. Készül az új Spinoza-bemutatóra, futnak a Madách Színház előadásai, jönnek az Ők azok! koncertek Malek Andreával és Wolf Katival, a Sztárban Sztár élő adásai pedig szintén komoly felkészülést kérnek tőle. A Club 54 dalaihoz is rendszeresen visszatér, vagyis a prózai szereptől a musicalen és a popzenén át a televízióig most szinte minden egyszerre történik körülötte.

Lippai Marianna motivációs előadó, az ÉLETKEdv közösség alapítója és Dr. Csaba Adrienn író a jövőben Judyval hármasban állnak színpadra a „Megismered, ha megismered” című esten. Három nő, három nagyon különböző életút, és kilencven perc, amelyben jóval többet szeretnének megmutatni magukból annál, amit egy interjúból, egy könyvből vagy egy közösségi média-bejegyzésből meg lehet ismerni. Marianna tizennégy éve motivációs előadóként dolgozik, és saját életének egyik legsúlyosabb veszteségéből építette fel azt a munkát, amellyel azóta emberek ezreihez jut el. Kislányát, Dominikát tizenhárom éves korában veszítette el. Történetét A könnyek mosolya című könyvben mondta el, amelyet Adrienn írt meg. Azóta barátság is született közöttük, most pedig közösen lépnek tovább abból a történetből, amelyet az olvasók már ismerhetnek. Adrienn különleges helyzetben ül majd a színpadon. Íróként két olyan nő életét dolgozta fel könyvben, akik most mellette foglalnak helyet. Judy történetét először 2008-ban írta meg, később bővített kiadás is készült belőle, 2025-ben pedig Marianna életéről jelent meg A könnyek mosolya. Az érdi esten ezúttal ő is résztvevővé válik, és saját történeteiből, döntéseiből, kudarcairól és újrakezdéseiről is beszél majd. Az estek egyik fontos témája éppen az ítélkezés. Milyen könnyen mondunk véleményt valakiről egyetlen mondat, fénykép vagy videó alapján, miközben az életének túlnyomó részéről semmit sem tudunk. Innen született a cím is. Megismered, ha megismered. Marianna, Judy és Adrienn a nőiségről, a negyven fölötti életről, családról, munkáról, veszteségről, újrakezdésről és változásról beszélnek, sok humorral és olyan kérdésekkel is, amelyeket előre még egymással sem egyeztetnek.

Hornok Róbert a KultFészek Produkció alapítója és főszervezője, akivel az októberben induló új évadról és egy ötéves kulturális misszió történetéről beszélgetünk. Róbert és csapata pszichológiai, mentálhigiénés és ismeretterjesztő előadásokat visznek Fejér vármegye közönségéhez, olyan vendégekkel, akikért korábban sokaknak Budapestig kellett utazniuk. A KultFészek közönsége az évek alatt megtalálta és megszerette ezt a formát. Dr. Zacher Gábor, Dr. Csernus Imre, Dr. Almási Kitti, Müller Péter, Badár Sándor és Pál Feri atya is szerepelt már náluk, az új évadban pedig ismert visszatérők mellé új vendégek érkeznek. Október 9-én Vida Ágnes pszichológus nyitja az őszi szezont Pákozdon a kötődési stílusokról szóló előadásával, október 21-én Dr. Csernus Imre következik. Novemberben Soma Mamagésa és Berecz András is a KultFészek vendége lesz. Pákozd időközben valódi otthonává vált a rendezvénysorozatnak. A KultFészek Gárdonyból indult, később azonban új helyszínre volt szükségük, Pákozd pedig azonnal befogadta őket. Innen Székesfehérvár, a Velencei-tó környéke, sőt Budapest felől is érkeznek nézők, és a közönség jelentős része rendszeresen visszatér. Az egész mögött egy civil szervezet áll, amelyet hosszú ideje elsősorban maga a közönség tart életben. Róbert hét éve dolgozik az egyesületben, a KultFészek pedig öt éve működik. A teltház, a visszatérő nézők és az előadások után érkező személyes visszajelzések jelentik számára azt a visszaigazolást, amiért érdemes folytatni.

Bartha Erika a Szívfény alapítójat öbb mint harmincöt éve foglalkozik az általa képviselt energetikai módszerekkel, húsz éve tanít, szeptember 26-án pedig Budapesten, a Verdi Aquincum Hotelben mutatja be Az élet örömforrásai című első könyvét. Van, aki látnoknak tartja őt. Van, aki gyógyítónak. Mások egyenesen csodatévőként emlegetik, mert mindaz, amit tud, amit érzékel, és ahogyan másokra hat, messze túlmutat a hétköznapi magyarázatok világán. Képes úgy segíteni, hogy közben a másik ember saját öngyógyító erejét mozdítja meg. Könnyedén ráhangolódik bárkire, a testünkbe lát, olvas a rezgésekből, kapcsolatot tart a láthatón túli világgal, és úgy nyúl hozzá emberi sorsokhoz, hogy attól sokak életében egyszer csak helyére billen valami. Évtizedeken át úgy tanított és kezelt, hogy szájról szájra terjedt a híre, miközben alig kereste a nyilvánosságot. Rengeteg tanítványa lett, sokan külföldről is hazautaznak hozzá, a szegedi rendelőjében pedig jelenleg hatszáz fős várólista van. Vagyis lehetetlen bejutni hozzá.A könyvvel hosszú évtizedekig várt. Több kiadó és író is kereste korábban, ő azonban sokáig úgy érezte, hogy még nincs itt az ideje annak, hogy ilyen nyíltan beszéljen a saját életéről. Most hatvanegy évesen vállalta először, hogy könyvben mondja el, hogyan kapcsolódott gyerekkorától az Égi Mestereihez, hogyan alakult ki a Szívfény módszere, és milyen tanításokat adott tovább azoknak, akik az elmúlt évtizedekben hozzá fordultak. Az élet örömforrásai egyszerre személyes életút és spirituális tanításgyűjtemény. Erika az öngyógyító erőről, a test és a lélek kapcsolatáról, a veszteségekről, a megbocsátásról, a meditációról és az általa megtapasztalt energetikai munkáról ír benne. Ezek az állítások a saját spirituális szemléletéhez és módszeréhez tartoznak, ő pedig éppen azt hangsúlyozza, hogy senkitől sem vár feltétlen hitet, inkább azt szeretné megmutatni, milyen világban él és dolgozik.A szeptember 26-i budapesti könyvbemutató ingyenes lesz, Erika pedig azt mondja, akik régóta várnak a vele való találkozásra, most használják ki a lehetőséget Budapesten, a Verdi Aquincum Hotelben a minőségi közös időtöltéshez.

Senior reporter Richard Rennie says the passing of the Agricultural Compounds and Veterinary Medicines Amendment Bill with broad support is giving industry leaders confidence that the door will reopen to new tools to combat pests and diseases.

In this episode, I sit down with Matt Ragland to talk about the ideas behind my new book and why I believe most people have been sold the wrong vision of entrepreneurship. We discuss the difference between flashy startup culture and building real wealth through practical businesses, why sales is one of the most important skills you'll ever develop, and how confidence can be a greater advantage than intelligence. We also dive into delegation, hiring internationally, and how entrepreneurs can create leverage without taking on massive risk. Matt shares his experience building a digital business, and we explore why trading your time for money is often the fastest path to getting started before scaling into something bigger. Later, we talk about fear setting, decision making, writing a book, building a life around your values, and the importance of taking action before you feel ready. Whether you're starting your first business, growing a service company, or looking for a more practical approach to entrepreneurship, this conversation is packed with lessons from the trenches.

Welcome to The Turf Zone podcast. This episode features the article “Dig into Ground Pearls: Investigating Thresholds and Distributions of a Spreading Pest Complex” written by Lily Deeter, Peter Hertl, and Terri Billeisen. Ground pearls (Hemiptera: Margarodidae) are severe insect pests of warm season turfgrass in North Carolina and much of the southern United States, spanning from Florida to California. These scale insects feed on grass roots fluids, causing distinctive circular dead patches turfgrass and frustration in homeowners, superintendents, and sod producers. No currently registered insecticides have shown consistent control for ground pearls (Chong, 2018; Thomson et al, 2021), likely due to their wax-protected cyst, the immature nymph stage that feeds on plant roots with piercing-sucking mouthparts. In addition, their subterranean habit and ability to remain encysted for years under adverse conditions make management of this insect challenging. As an insect family with over 100 species, ground pearls cause damage beyond managed turfgrass. Additional affected crops include grapevines in South Africa, wheat and barley in the Middle East, and sugarcane in Australia (García Morales et al., 2016). Two distinct ground pearl species infest North Carolina turfgrass: Eumargarodes laingi, known as the “pink ground pearl,” and Dimargarodes meridionalis, which is orange in the adult female life stage. While E. laingi cysts are typically a dull brown, beige, or pink, the cysts of D. meridionalis are shiny yellow, orange, or white. In North Carolina, these two species occur both separately and together in mixed infestations. As part of my dissertation research at NC State, I am investigating the ground pearl species complex and using distribution and life staging specifics to inform management. Understanding species abundance and impact may influence control approaches including product selection or timing. Greenhouse trials are ongoing to investigate and establish damage thresholds in centipedegrass, the most susceptible turfgrass species to ground pearl damage. Adult female ground pearls were introduced to potted grass containers at different densities and species combinations. Time to damage incidence is recorded as females lay eggs and establish a new generation of cysts. Damaged surface area will be estimated by individual container images using ImageJ software that quantifies green pixelation in each image. Containers are photographed every other week in a photo tent to maintain consistent lighting. Results from this study will inform not only damage potential of each ground pearl species, but also the damage and tolerance thresholds when managing infestations. I am also actively collecting distribution data for both species within and beyond the state. Once believed to be a localized issue, ground pearl infestations have now spread across most of the Coastal Plain and well into the Piedmont. Infestations of D. meridionalis are typically found in mixed infestations with E. laingi along the coast, while E. laingi infestations are spreading west as far as Wake County. Distribution data is growing through collaboration with extension agents, homeowners, and the NC State Turfgrass Diagnostics Lab. While I continue to characterize impact in North Carolina, my research on ground pearls will also investigate new pesticide formulations and emergence cycles to improve product application timing. I am also studying the evolution of this pest family using phylogenomics. Results from this research will help refine management procedures for ground pearls in North Carolina turfgrass and beyond.

Tudod, nehéz úgy tenni, mintha semmi sem történt volna - mondta Gergely, miközben lassan felállt és a többiek felé fordult.En: "You know, it's difficult to pretend as if nothing happened," said Gergely, as he slowly stood up and turned towards the others.Hu: - De próbálkoznunk kell!En: "But we have to try!"Hu: - Zsófia válaszolt, mosolyogva, reménykedve.En: Zsófia responded, smiling, hopeful.Hu: - A család összetartása a legfontosabb.En: "The cohesion of the family is the most important."Hu: Ahogy a család lassan összegyűlt az étkezőasztal körül, végre megérkezett István is.En: As the family slowly gathered around the dining table, István finally arrived.Hu: Ő volt az, akit már évek óta nem láttak.En: He was the one they hadn't seen for years.Hu: Az ő távolmaradása mindig is terheket jelentett a családnak.En: His absence had always been a burden for the family.Hu: A fiatal sörényű István arcán kisebb mosollyal fogadta a testvéreket, de tekintetében ott bujkált valami titkos.En: The young, mane-haired István greeted his siblings with a slight smile, but there was something secretive hiding in his gaze.Hu: Az est folytatódott, a tányérok között az ízletes ételek illata terjengett, és a pohárköszöntők lassan oldották a feszültséget.En: The evening continued, and the scent of delicious food spread among the plates, while the toasts slowly eased the tension.Hu: Gergely azonban nem tudta elhessegetni a kérdéseket.En: However, Gergely couldn't shake off the questions.Hu: Elérkezett az idő a régi sérelmek feltárására.En: The time had come to uncover old grievances.Hu: Amikor az utolsó falatokat elhelyezték, és a csend leereszkedett az asztalra, Gergely megszólalt:- István, mi történt valójában?En: When the last bites were taken, and silence descended upon the table, Gergely spoke up: "István, what really happened?Hu: Miért távolodtál el ennyire?En: Why did you distance yourself so?"Hu: A szoba csendessé vált.En: The room fell silent.Hu: István lassan felnézett, kortyot ivott a borából, mielőtt beszélni kezdett.En: István slowly looked up, took a sip of his wine before he began to speak.Hu: Hangja halk, de határozott volt.En: His voice was quiet but determined.Hu: - Nem akartam elmenni.En: "I didn't want to leave.Hu: Volt valami, amit nem tudtál.En: There was something you didn't know.Hu: Titkok, amelyek akkor veszélyesnek tűntek.En: Secrets that seemed dangerous at the time.Hu: De most készen állok megosztani veletek.En: But now I'm ready to share them with you."Hu: István egy régi családi levelet húzott elő a zsebéből, és azok a lehullott levelek, amikről álmodott az őszi szél, valódi múlt indákat találtak a szavakban.En: István pulled out an old family letter from his pocket, and the fallen leaves he had dreamed of in the autumn wind found real roots in his words.Hu: A titok, amit régóta hordozott, nem volt más, mint egy tévedés, egy félreértés, amely az évek során fájdalmat és távolságot eredményezett.En: The secret he had been carrying for so long was nothing more than a mistake, a misunderstanding that over the years had resulted in pain and distance.Hu: A család értetlen hallgatta, de Zsófia már tudta, mit kell tennie.En: The family listened in bewilderment, but Zsófia already knew what needed to be done.Hu: - Még ha a múlt nem is tökéletes, együtt kell valamit építenünk a jövőre - mondta, megérintve Gergely kezét.En: "Even if the past isn't perfect, we have to build something together for the future," she said, touching Gergely's hand.Hu: Az este végére a távolság, ami közöttük volt, lassan kezdett elpárologni.En: By the end of the evening, the distance that had been between them began to slowly evaporate.Hu: Gergely felismerte, hogy a múlt sebei idővel gyógyulhatnak, ha a szándék és akarat megvan.En: Gergely recognized that past wounds can heal with time if the intention and will are present.Hu: A kapcsolatok új útra léptek, még ha törékenyek is voltak.En: Relationships embarked on a new path, even if they were fragile.Hu: A nappaliból kiszűrődő nevetés lassan újra betöltötte a házat, és a barna színű falevelek ismét csendesen suhantak a hűvös pesti éjszakában, reményt keltve egy megbékélt jövővel.En: Laughter filtered out from the living room, slowly filling the house once more, and the brown-colored leaves quietly swayed in the cool Pest night, instilling hope for a reconciled future.

From an old agricultural threat making a troubling return to new research that could change the way farmers manage pests, this week on *American Family Farmer*, host Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan (www.eastleighfarm.com) looks at a range of issues affecting farmers, families and rural communities. Doug begins with concerns surrounding the New World screwworm and the USDA's response, including funding aimed at prevention and efforts to expand sterile fly production—a longtime method of controlling the destructive pest. He examines questions surrounding funding, preparedness and what a potential outbreak could mean for American livestock producers.The conversation also turns to promising agricultural research involving hemp cannabinoids as natural pest deterrents. Doug speaks with horticulture expert Aaron Fields about the possibility of using compounds produced by hemp plants as alternatives to conventional chemical pesticides and what that research could eventually mean for growers.Doug also remembers the legacy of writer, farmer and rural advocate Wendell Berry and his decades of work championing family farms, local communities and agrarian values.Plus, the show takes a broader look at life beyond the farm, including growing concerns about smartphone dependence, screen time and what some researchers and health professionals describe as “digital dementia.” It's a wide-ranging look at agriculture, innovation and the forces shaping rural America today.

In this conversation with Justin, I share how building an audience online transformed my business career, from raising capital and finding investors to hiring world class talent and launching entirely new companies. We dive into the opportunities that came from being radically transparent online and why I chose to focus on building businesses instead of becoming a full time media personality. We also discuss how entrepreneurs should think about evaluating opportunities, why geography is still one of the most underrated business advantages, and how I approach starting, scaling, and shutting down companies. I break down the philosophy behind Sweaty Startups, choosing your competition, and why some of the best opportunities today are hiding in plain sight inside local markets. We finish with a conversation about personal branding, content creation, media leverage, and how writing, podcasting, and short form content have made me a better communicator, leader, and operator.

In this conversation with Craig, I break down the real lessons I've learned building businesses from the ground up. We talk about the early days of Storage Squad, the stress and chaos that came with scaling a hard business, and how those experiences shaped the way I think about entrepreneurship today. We dive into why sales is the most important skill in business, why execution matters more than ideas, and how I think about leverage, decision making, delegation, and finding real opportunities in "boring" businesses. I also share practical lessons on improving conversion rates, optimizing sales funnels, building trust with customers, and why most entrepreneurs are looking for complicated answers when the biggest wins usually come from mastering the basics. If you want to build wealth, become a better operator, and understand what actually drives successful companies behind the scenes, this episode is for you.

The Fall Pest Checklist Every Jasper GA Homeowner Should Follow When the leaves start changing across Pickens County and that crisp mountain air rolls off Sharptop Mountain, most of us look forward to cozy evenings, high school football, and lighting up the fireplace. Unfortunately, you and I aren’t the only ones looking for a warm, dry place to spend the winter. As temperatures drop across North Georgia, all sorts of critters—from field mice and roaches to stink bugs and spiders—start searching for shelter. If your house isn’t buttoned up, they'll decide your living room, attic, or crawlspace makes the perfect winter resort. Taking a few proactive steps now can save you a mountain of headaches later. Here is the straightforward fall pest checklist every Jasper homeowner should run through before the first hard freeze. 1. Seal Entry Points Around the Foundation and Siding Insects and rodents don’t need a wide-open door. A mouse can squeeze through a gap the size of a dime, and a stink bug needs only a hairline fracture. Inspect the perimeter: Walk around your foundation and look for cracks in mortar, gaps around plumbing pipes, or openings where electrical lines enter the home. Caulk and seal: Use silicone-based caulk for small gaps and steel wool backed by expanding foam around larger pipe penetrations (mice can chew right through standard spray foam, but steel wool stops them cold). Check the garage door: Ensure the bottom weatherstripping makes a tight seal against the concrete slab. 2. Inspect Crawlspaces, Basements, and Attics North Georgia homes frequently feature crawlspaces or unfinished basements, both of which are prime real estate for moisture and pests. Check crawlspace vents: Ensure screens are intact and undamaged by squirrels or raccoons. Monitor moisture levels: Excess dampness attracts camel crickets, silverfish, and termites. If your crawlspace stays damp, consider a vapor barrier or dehumidifier. Look up in the attic: Check gable vents and ridge caps for openings that bats, squirrels, or rodents could use for entry. 3. Clear the Perimeter and Manage Firewood What sits against your home’s exterior directly influences what gets inside. Stack firewood high and dry: Keep firewood racks at least 20 feet away from your foundation and elevated off the ground. Firewood piles harbor spiders, ants, and mice. Trim back branches: Cut back tree limbs and shrubs so they do not touch siding, rooflines, or gutters. Overhanging branches act as highways for rodents and ants. Clear leaf litter: Rake damp leaves away from the foundation wall to eliminate hiding spots for overwintering beetles and roaches. 4. Fortify Doors and Windows Check weatherstripping: If you can see daylight beneath exterior doors, replace the door sweep immediately. Fix torn screens: Repair tears in window screens before opening windows to catch the autumn breeze. Taking care of these basic maintenance items puts a strong physical barrier between your family and seasonal invaders. If you'd like an extra layer of defense with a preventative exterior perimeter barrier before the cold really sets in, our team at Faith Pest Control is always right down the road and ready to help. Stay warm, enjoy the mountain fall, and keep your home protected! The post The Fall Pest Checklist Every Jasper GA Homeowner Should Follow first appeared on Faith Pest Control.

The show has decided to give us a break from reexplainingthat Lego Hair and Pest are doing a competition to lose weight.  Instead, we watched Jinger and Jessa (in a totally not staged scene) asking their parents if they could do a fundraiser at a coffee shop for an orphanage in Guatemala. It's a big day for showing off Jinger's personality.  In the Dig, we look at the IBLP connection to Russian orphans.  We all know that a grifter is gonna grift, but learn how Billy G took advantage of turmoil in Russia, to indoctrinate and exploit children both there and here in the States.  If you would like to support the work that we do, head on over to www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug where you can buy us a coffee, if you would just like to support us in a one-off fashion.

Let the workout montage commence! Now, I would usually say that this episode had way too much Pest in it, but most of it is getting roasted by their new personal trainer. It makes it okay.  We watch as the kids plant seeds to do a little plant growing competition.In a longtime-coming dig, Whit gets into the Power Team! Do you have vague memories of some muscle-bound dudes in windbreakers and tank tops coming to your school and smashing cinder blocks, breaking handcuffs and ripping phone books?  Then you might have been there for a showcase of the Power Team. Hopefully, you didn't get swindled to give all your information to a church later that evening.  If you would like to support the work that we do, head on over to www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug where you can buy us a coffee, if you would just like to support us in a one-off fashion.

In this episode, Dan and Donnie break down why estate planning matters for pest and lawn business owners. With successful pest control companies potentially valued at 10 to 14 times EBITDA, the business can create a significant estate—and significant tax and succession challenges. The conversation covers federal estate tax exemptions, gifting strategies, revocable and irrevocable trusts, asset protection, probate, and ways business owners can structure their estates to protect their families and preserve the value they've worked so hard to create.    Hosts: Dan Gordon, PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists: https://pcobookkeepers.com/ Donnie Shelton, Triangle Home Services: https://trianglehomeservices.com/ Sponsors: Coalmarch: https://www.coalmarch.com/podcast PestSure: https://www.pestsure.com/ Voice for Pest: https://www.voiceforpest.com/podcast Forshaw: https://www.forshaw.com/ PestPac by WorkWave: https://www.pestpac.com/pmpindustryinsiders Peer Groups: https://www.pmpindustryinsider.com/peergroups Insiders Conference:  https://www.pmpindustryinsider.com/conference

In this conversation with Zuby, we talk about entrepreneurship, confidence, family, modern culture, AI, and why I believe so many people are looking at life the wrong way. I explain why optimism and self belief matter so much in business, how my parents shaped my mindset growing up, and why I think supportive families create an enormous advantage in life. We also get into the strange way modern culture treats "privilege" as something shameful instead of something parents should want to create for their children. We talk about relationships, marriage, having kids, and why so many major cities and modern cultures have become disconnected from family life. I share the story of why my wife and I left Boston, what changed when we became parents, and why I believe having children makes you grow as a person in ways nothing else can. We also dive into AI and the future of technology. I explain why I think people are massively overestimating how quickly AI will replace human beings, while also acknowledging some of the very real dangers around fake content, propaganda, and losing the ability to tell what's real online. At the core of this conversation is one belief: life is hard for everybody. The people who build meaningful lives are the ones who take responsibility, stay optimistic, build strong families, and keep moving forward anyway.

Here we are at the underwhelming payoff of last episode's cliffhanger.   We get to see the meeting with the doctor to go over Lego and Pest's medical exam results.  Neither one of them eats well, nor exercises, and the results are what you would expect. At the Pest Nest, they get a visit from ole Pecan Waller and the little lady he married, whatever-her-name-is.    In the Dig, we finally get to Priscilla Waller.  In typical Priscilla fashion, this Dig was planned before but kept getting pushed out of the way by other IBLP mens stories.  If you would like to support the work that we do, head on over to www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug where you can buy us a coffee, if you would just like to support us in a one-off fashion.

In this episode, Michael and Jake recap Laracon US Boston, from Malaysian food and an undefeated dodgeball run to Laraprom, the great nachos-with-rice debate, conference logistics, Aaron Francis stepping into Laravel's VP of Marketing and Community role, and a reminder to make room for silly software.Jake shares his work rebuilding Boom Party, the fast-paced Bomberman clone his team used to play after stand-up, along with hosting decisions and a creative workflow involving Claude, Gemini, and Suno.Michael closes things out with what was supposed to be an easy Pest 5 upgrade but turned into a much bigger test-suite adventure: converting old PHPUnit-style tests, untangling inheritance, tracking down mysterious parallel test failures, discovering the pain of stray exit statements, and ultimately getting repeat runs across an approximately 18,000-test suite down to just eight seconds.Show linksPomplamooseSpindriftIZZELaracon USAaron FrancisSidecarWhimsy-driven development by Christina MartinezBoom PartyFly.io

Most people think entrepreneurship is about big ideas, venture capital, and building the next tech unicorn. I don't see it that way. In this conversation, I break down why almost every business ends up looking the same at scale and why chasing passion is one of the worst ways to start. I talk about how I think about opportunity, why "boring" businesses win, and how geography can be your biggest advantage. We get into what it actually takes to build something real: hiring, firing, delegating, and making tough decisions. I explain how I approach leadership, how I think about incentivizing people, and why not everyone in your company should want to be the CEO. I also share how I evaluate businesses, what I look for in underserved markets, and why simple services like cleaning, moving, or fixing things can outperform flashy startups if you execute well. At the end of the day, this isn't about ideas. It's about execution, leverage, and putting yourself in a position to win over a long period of time.

  So, we are here again, at the recycled plot line of “Lego needs to lose weight”.  This time, we got Pest involved so we can see the mens show off how competitive they are. The whole episode lets us explore our new bingo square: “Who's a Big Man?”.  They suffer through 1 workout and a fitness test at the doctor.  This week we dig into the biblical way to grow plants- Dan Carlson's  “Sonic Bloom”.   It's a fascinating dig that weaves in storylines you can't foresee: Guinness World Records, the best whistler on the planet, and a good ole Billy G grift.  If you would like to support the work that we do, head on over to www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug where you can buy us a coffee, if you would just like to support us in a one-off fashion.

Chris Winters can tell you the truth about all of them.Electroculture has become a buzzword on Instagram, but almost everything circulating about it misses the actual mechanism. The people teaching it have never grown a paying crop with it, but Chris Winters has, for over a decade, on a working organic vegetable farm in Tennessee.Chris is the founder of The Fertile Current and a medical qigong doctor who spent his first years farming fighting nature, using blood meal, bone meal, and every conventional organic input, until a crisis of conscience forced him to rebuild his soil fertility from scratch with rock minerals, biochar, and antenna systems that collect atmospheric charge.What he found broke the story that most organic farmers accept as fact. Bigger yields. Longer harvest windows. Pest pressure dropping by 85%. His farm is now fully transitioning to research mode because the production side has started to feel almost too easy.We also get into radionics, weather modification, why Japanese beetles use their wings as an inner ear, and why he thinks the real fertility crisis is a power supply problem, in the soil and in us.You'll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[9:24] Your energetic connection to heaven and earth, and what fourth phase water reveals about Hadza hydration[31:31] How Chris's Nashville and Jamaica upbringing shaped his faith, and the beach hostage ordeal that followed[1:02:06] USDA organic labels don't matter, and the mistake of farming built on blood sacrifice[1:23:57] What electroculture actually is, and why the Instagram version gets it wrong[1:46:50] Cutting off the Strait of Hormuz symbolically means cutting off divine intelligence[2:03:45] How the antenna systems collect cations 15 feet up to power soil fertility[2:39:37] Why Japanese beetles vanish from low-voltage fields, and how bugs only attack already-weakened plants[3:05:14] How radionic field broadcasters power weather modification and Chris's training as a blind dowser[3:26:14] Medical Qigong, and why Chris pivoted his farm from vegetables to researchRelated The Way Forward Episodes:The 4th Phase of Water: The Blueprint for Biological Energy with Dr. Gerald Pollack | PodcastThought, Light & The Liquid Language of God with Veda Austin | PodcastPolarity Therapy, Dead Soil & Ayahuasca with Topher Gardner | PodcastThe Lies Modern Science Told Us About  Alchemy, Consciousness, & Quantum with Dr. Steven A.

I break down how I think about leverage and why relying on one person or one income source is the fastest way to stay stuck. We get into how I structure my businesses, how I make high impact decisions, and how I use systems, hiring, and global talent to scale faster than competitors. I also share my real thoughts on AI, where it actually adds value and where it's overhyped. And toward the end, I talk about how having a family made me a better operator, forced me to focus on what actually matters, and how I think about raising my kids and building a life beyond just business.   Grow your business:   https://sweatystartup.com/events   Book:   https://www.amazon.com/Sweaty-Startup-Doing-Boring-Things/dp/006338762X     Newsletter:   https://www.nickhuber.com/newsletter     My Companies:   Offshore recruiting – https://somewhere.com   Cost segregation – https://recostseg.com   Self storage – https://boltstorage.com   RE development – http://www.boltbuilders.com   Brokerage – https://nickhuber.com   Paid ads – https://adrhino.com   SEO – https://boldseo.com   Insurance – https://titanrisk.com   Pest control – https://spidexx.com     Sell a business:   http://nickhuber.com/sell     Buy a business:   https://www.nickhuber.com/buy     Invest with me:   http://nickhuber.com/invest     Social Profiles:   X – https://www.x.com/sweatystartup   Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/sweatystartup   TikTok – https://www.tiktok.com/404?fromUrl=/sweatystartup   LinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/sweatystartup     Podcasts:   The Sweaty Startup & The Nick Huber Show   https://open.spotify.com/show/7L5zQxijU81xq4SbVYNs81     Free PDF – How to analyze a self-storage deal:   https://sweatystartup.ck.page/79046c9b03
