That Minnesota win was so good that the Hawkeye 4DT guys decided to take their own bye week. Have no fear, this week's episode jumps in the way back time machine (you know, like, 10 days ago) to recap Iowa's 41-3 domination of the Golden Gophers before turning full attention to this week's matchup against Oregon inside Kinnick Stadium. After scoring TDs in all three phases, the Hawkeyes entered the bye week on a roll and looking to get healthy, while the fans spent that time dreaming about some November and Kinnick magic against Puddles and the rest of the Ducks. Brian and Zach provide their 4DT breakdown of the Iowa football squad heading into meaningful November games - while many (most?) Iowa fans left the Hawks' playoff hopes for dead after the Indiana game, with four games left in the 2025 season, the guys look at what it will take for Iowa to finally break into the CFP discussion and find themselves in the 12-team tournament. Yeah, yeah - one game at a time . . . but no harm in dreaming big, right?  Hawkeye 4DT is weekly Iowa Hawkeyes matchup and team analysis. Brian & Zach break down opponent tendencies, scheme, personnel usage, and keys to the game—nothing else.

What if the way you label people is quietly eroding trust, connection, and collaboration in your workplace? Rosie unpacks a powerful truth many leaders overlook: when we define people by their roles, titles, or conditions, we strip away their humanity. Whether it's calling someone "a diabetic" or placing a CEO on a pedestal, these seemingly small habits can create distance and reinforce hierarchy. Rosie invites us to pause and shift our lens, and to see the person first.

Ever had a bizarre encounter with a complete stranger that left you questioning humanity? From mysterious pocket meat offered to pets to uncomfortable supermarket sniffers, this episode dives into those awkward, confusing, and sometimes concerning interactions we all experience with people we don't know. Hayley and Max kick things off with a hilarious story about a husband who allowed a stranger to feed "pocket beef" to their dogs—yes, actual roast beef carried in someone's pocket! This sparks a lively debate about trusting strangers around our pets and the unwritten rules of pocket food etiquette. The conversation then opens up to other strange encounters, including unwanted personal comments at supermarkets and overly affectionate dog huggers who don't respect boundaries.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Vision Jet owner Ken joins Max Trescott to recount an unforgettable five-day training adventure that bridged the gap between piston flying and turbine jet proficiency. As a longtime Cirrus SR22 pilot from the Boston area, Ken had spent nearly a decade flying for both business and family trips, rarely exceeding 300 nautical miles from home. When he decided to upgrade to a 2019 G2 Vision Jet, he wanted more than a checkout—he wanted a head start on mastering the airplane before tackling the Cirrus type rating course in Knoxville.   In this episode, Ken explains how his "pre-SOE" plan came together. After reaching out to Max, the two pilots scheduled nearly a week of flying to experience diverse weather, airports, and procedures. The goal: to learn the G3000 avionics, improve cockpit workflow, and build real-world familiarity before entering formal training. Their first day took them from Bedford, Massachusetts, to Burlington, Vermont, and then to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, where Max demonstrated how to safely cancel IFR and load a visual approach when haze and sun glare limited visibility. That night, while returning to Bedford, they learned the importance of aiming for runway aiming points—not the numbers—especially during night landings in jets. Day two brought a new challenge: deciding whether to fly west toward the Rockies or south toward better weather. A massive cold front made the decision easy, and the pair headed south instead. After a scenic leg along Long Island to Atlantic City, Ken received what Max called "the longest IFR clearance ever." Rather than manually entering the clearance into the G3000, Max showed how to import the flight plan directly from ForeFlight—a huge time-saver for managing long routes. That evening's destination was Greene County, Georgia (3J7), near Ken's in-laws' home at Lake Oconee. The stop held sentimental value: it was the same airport where Ken had first landed years earlier with his brand-new SR22. The next morning brought low fog and another teachable moment. When poor cell coverage prevented them from obtaining an IFR release, Max used the Vision Jet's SAT phone to call clearance delivery—a practical use for a feature many pilots overlook. Later that day, while practicing a VX climb—a maximum-performance takeoff used for steep departure gradients—Ken forgot to raise the landing gear, a common mistake during the high-workload maneuver. The oversight led to a discussion about better cues, timing, and division of tasks between pilots to avoid forgetting critical steps. They also discovered that one set of keys had been left in the cabin door—a harmless but memorable moment that required returning to the airport to retrieve them. From Georgia, they flew to Asheville, North Carolina, for real-world mountain experience, and then to John C. Tune Airport in Nashville. When ATC issued a last-minute vector, Max demonstrated how to safely "do nothing"—allowing the autopilot to intercept as planned instead of overcomplicating things. On day four, they returned to Boston. At night, controllers twice ignored their request for an ILS approach into Bedford, forcing a visual approach at higher altitude and steeper descent rates. Max explained why instrument approaches at night are always safer, and how overworked controllers sometimes inadvertently increase pilot workload. The final day offered a lighter tone: a short hop to Nantucket, one of Ken's favorite destinations. There, Max illustrated how adjusting throttle settings and altitude can drastically change fuel burn—saving nearly 18 gallons on a short leg by reducing power. Ken wrapped up by reflecting on what he gained from the experience: confidence, familiarity with the Vision Jet's systems, and a deeper appreciation for proactive learning. "I encourage other pilots to build their own syllabus," he said, "because flying with an instructor like Max before formal training was both incredibly valuable and a lot of fun." Whether you fly a Cirrus SR22 or aspire to own a Vision Jet, this episode is packed with insights about transition training, pre-type preparation, and real-world decision-making that can make any pilot safer and more capable.

The new Grá Macroom Gift Card for the town of Macroom and neighbouring villages listed on the Grá Macroom Gift Card has gone live following an official launch event at the Castle Hotel in Macroom on the 29th October. Backed by Macroom Business Association, the Grá Macroom Gift Card replaces the previous paper Macroom shopping voucher and extends its reach from the town to its surrounding villages in the Lee Valley region, benefiting 15,000 people and around 100 businesses. Available in both physical and digital formats, the new Grá Macroom Gift Card is part of the award winning Town & City Gift Card initiative, and the first of its kind in County Cork. Cards are available to buy online and in person from Killian Auctioneers Macroom, Cooney's Garage in Coachford, Connections in Macroom, Dromeys Centra in Ballymakeera and Daybreak in Ballingeary and can be spent with around 100 participating local businesses. The Grá Macroom Gift Card is eligible to be used with the Small Benefit Exemption that allows organisations to gift their people up to five small non-cash benefits, tax free, each year up to the value of €1,500. Organisations can avail of a new corporate ordering site, with physical cards delivered securely by post, or the ability to send digital cards on a day/time of the organisation's choosing. Irish owned chain Connections has stores across County Cork, including in Macroom. The Macroom store is both a location to buy the new Grá Macroom Gift Card and a business which accepts the card. David O'Leary is CEO and founder of Connections and said: "It's the right time for Macroom to have its own high-tech gift card because the paper vouchers were dated. The new Grá Macroom Gift Card, being a physical and digital card, is more streamlined and easy to use. Since the pandemic, we've moved from around 40% card payments to 70% card payments. The Grá Macroom Gift Card is something recipients will have in their pocket or digital wallet. "Coming up to Christmas, employers can buy the Grá Macroom Gift Card for their staff in bulk. It's an easy, efficient way to reward staff. Why would you give a Perx or One4All Gift Card, when you can keep it local with the Grá Macroom Gift Card, and ensure that spend stays in the local economy. It makes more sense. "The extension of the Grá Macroom Gift Card beyond Macroom to its neighbouring villages will bring the benefits of the initiative to more people." Restaurants, pubs and hotels also accept the new Grá Macroom Gift Card, such as third generation family-owned The Castle Hotel. Manager, Rory Buckley, said: "The Castle is a four star hotel with 56 bedrooms and a leisure club. The launch of the new gift card is a great move for Macroom. Every community wants money to circulate and keep spend local, and that's what the Grá Macroom Gift Card will do. We accept the card at the hotel, and I think in today's economy, a card that can be used to pay for annual leisure club membership, swimming lessons for the kids or on an ongoing basis to enjoy lunch out is a real positive, easing the cost of living. "The ease of purchase and use of the Grá Macroom Gift Card will also bolster tourism. With the card, people can enjoy a night away and a full experience of Macroom, spending over and above what's on the card as they enjoy Macroom and its surrounding villages. A former Macroom resident now living in Australia recently commented that they see the card as a great gift to give to family still living at home in Macroom. So as well as locking spend into Macroom, it'll bring new money in too." Third generation business Matt Murphy's Pharmacy in Macroom is part of the new card. Henry Murphy commented: "The pharmacy is a family run, third generation business that has been located in the centre of Macroom for over 100 years. We used to purchase the paper vouchers for our staff and this year, we'll be purchasing the new card. It's nice that there's the option of the physical or digital card, and I like the fact ...

SUGi creates pocket forests that breathe life into urban spaces. Founded in London and now operating in over 50 cities worldwide, SUGi uses the innovative Miyawaki method to transform small urban areas into thriving, biodiverse ecosystems. In a space the size of a tennis court, they can plant approximately 600 trees that grow rapidly, creating a mature forest in just a fraction of the time nature would typically require. Adrian Wong, UK Forest Lead, explains, "If nature did it naturally, it usually takes 150 to 500 years for a forest to mature. We supercharge that process." At the heart of SUGi's success is soil restoration. "Without a living, healthy soil, we can't do what we're doing," Adrian emphasises. They meticulously prepare urban sites by aerating the ground, introducing beneficial organisms like mycelium and worms, and creating a nutrient-rich environment that supports rapid growth and biodiversity. For me, as Adrian was telling us this, I felt this emphasis on creating a healthy environment for life to thrive, is similar to what we are trying to do with Biophilic Design inside our homes, hospitals, workplaces, creating healthy environments that enable all life to flourish. The impact is remarkable. Even in seemingly inhospitable urban locations, these micro forests attract diverse wildlife. At their South Bank forest, they've recorded an incredible range of species, including blue tits, green finches, and surprisingly, even tawny owls and peregrine falcons. Research is increasingly demonstrating the mental health benefits of these urban forests. A study with Oxford University is exploring how the volatile organic compounds released by trees can reduce anxiety and improve overall well-being. As Adrian puts it, "We're learning how to quantify the benefits that we know exist." Contrary to expectations, these forests require minimal maintenance. After initial care in the first three to four years, the forests become self-sustaining ecosystems. "Beyond that point, the forest looks after itself," Adrian explains. Adrian himself looks after over 30 forests on his own, which just proves that the method of planting is self-sustaining, affordable and there is no economic downside to scaling these across cities too. Just benefits. SUGi's approach addresses urban inequity by bringing green spaces to areas traditionally lacking natural environments. Their forests provide access to nature in communities that have been concrete bound, offering mental health benefits, educational opportunities, and a sense of community ownership. Everything which the Biophilia hypothesis encourages, and Biophilic Designers are aiming to create. "I would love to see a city that's part of nature, a city that's in nature," Adrian says at the end. This means integrating green spaces seamlessly into urban landscapes – from moss-covered walls to green roofs that provide habitat and food-growing opportunities. SUGi is always seeking collaborators. "Finding land is our biggest challenge," Adrian notes. Architects, city planners, and community leaders are invited to explore how micro forests can transform urban spaces. In just six years, SUGi has planted over 200 forests worldwide, proving that small spaces can create significant environmental and social change. If you have land which is calling out for a mini forest, please reach out directly to SUGi to collaborate. These pocket forests are more than just trees they are essential in our healing and connection in our urban landscapes. https://www.instagram.com/sugiproject/https://www.linkedin.com/company/sugiproject/posts/?feedView=allhttps://www.sugiproject.com/https://cdn.sanity.io/files/oyzyxja8/v2/913f3ee130ed408e418cd2b76a3e7bddf562c550.pdf He will be speaking at the biophilic design conference on: . A passion developed from his time travelling and observing how society benefits most when nature and humanity can coexist. He will be speaking about:Biodiversity & Belonging: why wild urban spaces matter.Every citizen deserves access to thriving, biodiverse nature. SUGi is a model of urban renewal rooted in ownership, pride, and shared responsibility. We transform urban spaces through hyper-local pocket forests. From climate resilience to improving mental health, we'll explore how wild urban spaces and nature connectedness can restore our sense of belonging — and how this, in turn, supports biodiversity and human well-being.

In 1989's MSG 0080: War in the Pocket, Zeon's Lt. Col Killing orders Col. Von Hellsing to nuke the Side 6 colony known as Libot after the Cyclops team failed to destroy the Federation's new prototype Gundam via conventional means.  As luck would have it, the Federation captured Von Hellsing's ship before the nukes could launch and spared Libot from annihilation.  In this episode, we discuss what might have happened if Killing's plan to nuke Libot was successful.  Brian sees this as an early version of Operation Stardust that inadvertently gives rise to a much earlier showdown between the Titans and Axis Zeon in the asteroid belt.  Isaac sees an occupied Zeon with its people forced to choose a side, with factions like the Crossbone Vanguard, the Zanscare Empire, and the Jupiter Empire rising earlier.  Plus, we wonder if AI and nanotech should qualify as WMDs; find out what happened to Lt. Col Killing; and argue about asteroid lasers and hot lava missiles!  Welcome to Alfred's Nightmare!

Turns out, all those push ups didn't do the BADgers any good as your Iowa Hawkeyes doubled-down on their impressive 32 point win in 2024 with an even more impressive encore in 2025, shutting out Wisconsin at Camp Randall for the first time since 1929, with a 37-0 road win! Join the Hawkeye 4DT guys as they return from Las Vegas (a little lighter in the wallet) to break down Iowa's complete dominance in Madison before turning their attention to the new look Penn State Nittany Lions. Brian and Zach break down what to expect from PSU when it comes to Iowa City without its long-term starting QB, Drew Allar, who is injured and out for the season, and without stalwart head coach, James Franklin, who was relieved of his HC duties earlier in the week after not only failing to find a way to win the “big one,” but also finding ways to lose multiple “little ones.” The only bad part is that the Hawks weren't the ones to show him the door!   Hawkeye 4DT is a weekly Iowa Hawkeyes matchup and team analysis.

Click/tap here to view the Sermon Reflection Guide. When David faced Goliath, he wasn't the strongest, tallest, or most experienced warrior on the battlefield. He wasn't even supposed to be there—he was just delivering supplies to his brothers. But David showed up. And when the moment came, he offered what he had: a sling, a few stones, and a heart confident in God. David didn't try to wear Saul's armor or fight with someone else's weapons. He knew who he was and trusted that God could use his own unique gifts and experiences for a greater purpose. What seemed small in the world's eyes became powerful in God's hands. The story reminds us that God isn't asking us to be someone else. He's asking us to show up with what we have—regardless of the odds. Our gifts, our stories, and our faith can all be used by God when we step forward in trust. Victory doesn't come from our strength but from our willingness to let God work through us.

professorjrod@gmail.comA tiny stick changed how we move information—and how attackers move too. We pull back the curtain on the USB flash drive's quiet takeover: why floppies and CD-Rs failed us, how flash memory and USB converged, and which teams across Singapore, Israel, and China raced to ship the first pocket drive that actually worked. From early 8 MB models that cost a small fortune to today's terabyte dual‑connector rockets, the arc is a crash course in convenience beating complexity.We go beyond the specs to the human story. The new sneaker net brought agility to classrooms, studios, and fieldwork long before cloud storage matured, and it still rules when bandwidth is scarce or privacy matters. But the same traits that made thumb drives beloved—small, portable, plug‑and‑play—made them dangerous. We unpack pivotal moments: Agent.BTZ breaching U.S. military networks, Stuxnet crossing air gaps to wreck centrifuges, a city's entire resident database riding unencrypted in a bag, a hotel compromised by parking‑lot bait, a campus locked by ransomware, and a firm undercut after careless copying. Each tale shows how curiosity, haste, and habit can turn a helpful tool into a vector for loss.We share the playbook that works: default to encryption (hardware or OS‑native), label and inventory every drive, whitelist trusted devices and block the rest, and train people to treat unknown USBs like untrusted code. We also map where flash still beats the cloud—air‑gapped labs, disaster zones, forensic chains, and anywhere “no third‑party server” is a requirement. If portability is power, prudence is the price. Listen to learn the origin myths, the price curves, the cultural shifts, and the simple habits that keep pocket power safe.Enjoyed the story and the takeaways?

C dans l'air l'invité du 9 octobre 2025 avec Gilles Kepel, professeur émérite des universités, spécialiste du Moyen-Orient, auteur du "Bouleversement du monde" (éditions Pocket), et de "Antiterrorisme, la traque des jihadistes"(éditions Plon).Un accord a été trouvé entre le Hamas et Israël pour un plan de paix à Gaza. Désormais, les deux camps doivent s'entendre pour procéder à des échanges d'otages israéliens et de prisonniers palestiniens, avant un retrait progressif des troupes israéliennes et un désarmement du Hamas. Mais le chemin est encore long.Pour Donald Trump, ce sont "les premières étapes vers une paix solide, durable et éternelle". Le président américain a annoncé, dans la nuit du mercredi 8 au jeudi 9 octobre, qu'Israël et le Hamas avaient "signé la première phase" de son plan de paix pour la bande de Gaza, presque intégralement détruite après deux ans d'offensive israélienne. L'accord a été conclu dans le cadre de pourparlers indirects en Egypte. L'annonce a suscité une vague d'espoir au Moyen-Orient et dans le monde, Emmanuel Macron disant son "espoir immense pour les otages et leurs familles, pour les Palestiniens de Gaza, pour la région", dans un message publié sur X dans lequel il "salue" les efforts diplomatiques et "appelle les parties à en respecter strictement les termes". Gilles Kepel, professeur émérite des universités et spécialiste du Moyen-Orient, est notre invité. Il nous expliquera ce que contient ce plan, et nous dira, selon lui quelles sont ses forces et ses éventuelles faiblesses. Il nous éclairera aussi sur les prochaines étapes, avant d'atteindre la "paix durable" promise par le président américain. Leur reste encore floue. Le plan prévoit notamment la mise en place d'une "gouvernance temporaire de transition avec un comité palestinien technocratique et apolitique", sous la supervision d'un "conseil de la paix" dirigé par Donald Trump et incluant l'ex-Premier ministre britannique Tony Blair.

In this episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B joined by super producer A-King and journalist Jayson Rodriguez unpack the powerful intersections between social media, mental health, and self-perception, exploring how digital culture shapes modern identity and relationships. The conversation opens with an introduction and book promotion [00:00], before delving into the “monster in our pockets” — the pervasive influence of social media on mental health and self-worth [00:51]. They reflect on their experiences at the Sheen Magazine Awards, discussing the pressure to remain professional while navigating the blurred lines between celebrity culture and authenticity [04:59]. The team examines the evolving role of journalists and content creators in an age driven by viral narratives and online engagement [09:44], while also addressing how generational perspectives on work and mental health have shifted over time [20:03]. From there, the conversation turns to knowing your worth in the job market and how financial security can impact self-esteem and boundaries [29:31], leading into a broader discussion about relationships, self-value, and social media’s effect on connection and trust [30:30–31:29]. The hosts emphasize the importance of therapy and emotional growth, particularly for those battling internalized expectations and societal pressures [37:11]. As the dialogue deepens, they challenge traditional notions of masculinity and the stigmas surrounding men’s mental health [48:48], before highlighting the value of long-term vision over quick success in both personal and professional life [58:18]. The latter part of the episode takes a reflective turn as Mandii and her team discuss the hypocrisy surrounding money, morality, and integrity in entertainment [59:46], sparking debate about accepting funding from controversial sources— specifically in light of the Saudi Arabia Comedy Festival controversy [01:05:01]. They explore the broader cultural implications of comedy, free speech, and ethics in global entertainment [01:11:35–01:19:31], ultimately concluding that true growth comes from aligning one’s actions with their values, regardless of public perception. This thought-provoking episode of Selective Ignorance offers an unfiltered look at how social media, money, and morality continue to shape modern consciousness — reminding listeners that integrity and balance remain the ultimate measures of success. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumps Follow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_podSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
