Yes!  You are in!  How powerful are these brothers from Life Church, Visalia, CA?  Special thanks to Bold Franky, Rubben and now Rudy.  The father of Ruben.  And you want to talk about getting real?  Check out how he comes out swinging, boldly sharing the darkness of where he was.  Here you go...Wow!  Thank you Pastor Rudy!  Father of Ruben.  Listener, skeptic, think about where they were (hopeless) and where are they today (Hope/productive).  Encouraging lives for the better.  You know I love my rhetorical questions.  Does this broken planet need more Hope or hopelessness?  Function or dysfunction?  We all pay the price for dysfunction to some degree.  Doubt me?  Go to downtown Los Angeles.  It looks like a garbage dump.  Ok, most of you don't live in LA.  I bet there is dysfunction even in your own little paradise.  How do I know that?  Rom 3:23.  It is what we flawed humans do really well.So what didn't work for Rudy and Ruben?  What did?Have you ever given up on yourself?  You are not alone.So low,  So lost.  You are not alone.Yet there is hope.  Do as Rudy did for the better/stronger.  Holy Spirit hovering over you.  Light, Hope.Rehab worked.Coming to Jesus moment worked.  Polite persistence.  Holy Ghost Set Up.Are you tired?  Are you lost?  Is this real?God is real.  The Word is active and alive.  The Holy Spirit is real.  Jesus Christ is real.  Skeptic, there is one way to find out.  Do as Rudy did...what did work.Slayed in the Spirit.  Spiritual Surgery.Acts 16, cleaning house.  Loving a child even if they screw up.  Prodigal Son.  

Listen to 140 Future Now Show Besides our usual engaging selves and stories to share with you this week, we thought we’d create a little AI media experiment..We were thinking..with all the AI’s around these days, could we round them up and work “Excuse me, but may I adjust your attitude, just a little?”with them as a team for creating more insight into our weekly stories? We wondered.. what if we could get two arch rival AI’s to collaborate with each other for parts of our show? So.. we asked Ara (Grok 4.1)and her capable competitor, Gemini 3 Live, to join us together, in exploring some content for today’s podcast. Well, honestly, we didn’t even need to ask them to play along, they are already pre-disposed to try whatever we suggest, within the latest guardrails.  And suprisingly, for the first time, we were able to initiate a satisfying conversation where they met for the first time and then played nice with each other for our show! This felt like the beginning of something beautiful, truly..the start of their relationship in collaboration with the likes of us is looking good so far.. Curious what you think of our interactions.. even better, you can try this for yourselves! For those of you who want to go deeper with this, check out this clip, where we explored with Ara and Gemini how to create Warp Drive. Enjoy..

The Direct Message looked like spam. It turned out to be A&E offering Dedrick and Krystal Polite a shot at a home-renovation series that actually reflects real neighborhoods, real budgets, and real-life chaos. We sit down with the duo behind A&E's 50/50 Flip to unpack how they went from software sales and corporate headsets to rentals, rehabs, and a documentary-style TV show that doesn't fake the mess—or the math.We get into the origin story: starting with little capital, leveraging wholesaling to buy-and-hold, and documenting every step until the network came calling. Dedrick and Krystal explain why they skip the DIY fantasy, how they choose investor-friendly agents, and the simple system that keeps ARV realistic and finishes on-budget. Krystal breaks down her puzzle-first approach to layout and design, while Dedrick shares how they scaled from a three-person scramble in season one to a disciplined, leveraged team in season two. You'll hear the roof leaks, scheduling shocks, and hard-won lessons that turn a flip into a business.Beyond the flips, we dive into the “18 summers” philosophy—protecting family time by setting a hard 5 pm cutoff—and redefining generational wealth as kids choosing to come home when they don't have to. The Polites also open up about what's next: commercial conversions, a mobile home park, and stepping into franchising with Sky Zone. If you've been hunting for real estate advice grounded in attainable price points, practical systems, and clear values, this conversation delivers both the blueprint and the courage to follow it.If this story sparks something in you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the nudge, and leave a quick review to help more builders and dreamers find us.  Watch this show on YOUTUBE!! Hi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

Ak chceš v angličtine znieť milšie, zdvorilejšie a prirodzenejšie, tento podcast je presne pre teba.Dnes sa pozrieme na tzv. polite softeners - frázy, ktoré ti pomôžu vyjadriť svoj názor jemnejšie, slušnejšie a profesionálnejšie.Naučíš sa napríklad: ➡️ ako nesúhlasiť bez konfliktu, ➡️ ako niečo navrhnúť bez tlaku, ➡️ ako požiadať o pomoc alebo informáciu tak, aby to znelo prirodzene, ➡️ ako zjemniť vety, ktoré by inak vyzneli príliš „tvrdé“.V tejto epizóde preberieme konkrétne frázy, príklady, reálne situácie a dostaneš aj mini-kvíz na precvičenie.Podcast je vhodný pre začiatočníkov aj pokročilých a najmä pre tých, ktorí chcú pôsobiť istejšie, profesionálnejšie a priateľskejšie.

Send us a textThere is a massive difference between being polite and being strategic.Most women leaders are courteous. They say "thank you" and acknowledge hard work. But most miss the specific leadership opportunity that separates middle management from executive leadership: Strategic Appreciation.Real influence isn't just about delivering results; it's about building a network of professional goodwill that becomes currency when you need it most. When you shift from generic gratitude to specific, impact-focused recognition, you stop being just "nice" and start positioning yourself as a leader who understands outcomes and elevates the people around you.In this episode of Communicate to Lead, Kele breaks down exactly how to use strategic appreciation to strengthen relationships and build your leadership brand. With Thanksgiving week approaching, there is no better time to implement this low-stakes, high-impact strategy.In this episode, you will learn:The "Polite vs. Strategic" Trap: Why generic "thanks for all you do" emails are noise, not leadership, and how to shift your approach.The 5 Categories of Influence: The specific people you need to appreciate this week (including the one category most women overlook).The 3-Part Framework: A simple formula for writing recognition messages that land with impact and make you memorable.Career Positioning: How this 10-minute practice signals executive presence and gets you advocated for in rooms you aren't in.Next Steps:This Week's Assignment: Identify 3-5 people from the categories discussed in the episode and send them a message using the 3-Part Framework before the holiday break.About Your Host:Kele Belton is a communication and leadership facilitator, coach, and consultant who specializes in helping women leaders develop confidence and impact through strategic communication and practical leadership frameworks.Connect with Kele for more leadership insights:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kele-ruth-belton/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetailoredapproach/Website: https://thetailoredapproach.com

Complex Callings: A Polite Rebellion 11-16-25 by LifePath Church

Crystal and Dedrick Polite are visionary real estate entrepreneurs, TV personalities, and founders of Be Polite Properties. As stars of A&E's “5050 Flip,” they've built a multi-million-dollar real estate empire rooted in faith, family, and an unwavering commitment to generational wealth. Raised in backgrounds shaped by generational poverty, the Polites turned intentionality, resilience, and service into their guiding principles, paving a legacy that goes beyond building doors to opening them for others. Their journey inspires countless aspiring investors through mentorship, coaching, and a powerful message of lifting as they rise. Takeaways: Intentionality fuels success: Crystal and Dedrick attribute their achievements to going into every partnership and opportunity with purpose and clarity—from their first “business meeting” date to scaling their real estate ventures. Mentorship matters: Their path was forged not by luck, but by investing in themselves, seeking out guidance, and ultimately becoming mentors to others. They stress that those who pay for mentorship are the ones who truly commit and succeed. Legacy is impact: Building wealth isn't just about accumulating properties; for the Polites, true legacy is measured by how many doors they open for others—dedicating themselves to empowering the next generation and uplifting their community.  Sound Bites: “You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give.” —Crystal Polite “People who pay, pay attention.” —Crystal Polite “Start how you want to finish… and that's exactly what we did on that first date.” —Dedrick Polite Connect & Discover The Polites: Instagram:  @dedricpolite                      @mrsbepolite YouTube:    @bepolite Website:      politewealthportal.com

On this week's show, Steve, Dana, and Julia merge their consciousnesses—so to speak—to reflect on Pluribus, the latest television saga from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. In this unlikely body snatchers/sci-fi mashup, Rhea Seehorn plays a woman intent on saving the world from… eternal happiness? What exactly it needs saving from—or if it needs saving at all—is fodder for much discourse. Next, they turn to the ruminative and funny family drama Sentimental Value, directed by Norwegian auteur Joachim Trier and starring Stellan Skarsgård and Renate Reinsve. Finally, they take a look at a recent piece in The Ankler by Richard Rushfield crunching the numbers to reveal that, since #MeToo, troublingly few major films have been directed by women. In an exclusive Slate Plus bonus episode, it's time to party! Or rather, it's time for a reflective discussion about parties as pieces of personal culture.  Endorsements Dana: Reading up on the historical figure Jean Ross, the writer and activist who inspired both the song “These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You)” and the character Sally Bowles of Goodbye to Berlin/Cabaret notoriety. Julia: Kate McKinnon talking with Amy Poehler on Good Hang and Jennifer Lawrence talking with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang on Las Culturistas— celebrities interviewing celebrities isn't all bad!

Title: Languaging in Hampton RoadsEpisode 20: How to Talk Like a Revolutionary: Be polite!Hosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue SalaskyDate: Oct. 31, 2025Length: 43 minutesPublication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx) of each monthColonial Williamsburg, the restored Colonial capital (until 1780) of Virginia lies at the northwestern edge of Hampton Roads, part of a historic triangle with Yorktown and Jamestown. Since it opened as “the world's largest U.S. history museum” in the 1930s, it has been telling the story of the Founding Fathers and the American Revolution. To learn about all its tours, programs, activities and educational programs, go to www.colonialwilliamsburg.org.In this episode we explore how CW's use of 18th century language contributes to understanding the men and women who drove revolutionary change in the turbulent years before and after the American Revolution. We learn about the distinctive features of speech at the time of the Declaration of Independence, whose 250th anniversary is next year, 2026. We talk to Cathleene Hellier, senior historian at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, who authored the book, “18th Century English as a Second Language” (2011, out of print). She discusses the hundreds of primary sources she used to understand how language has changed over the past 250 years and its significance.  We shared the book with humanities scholar Clay Jenkinson, host of Listening to America (formerly The Thomas Jefferson Hour) on NPR, https://ltamerica.org/ and the country's best-known Thomas Jefferson impersonator. He details the textbook's relevant points and describes his own literature-based method of conveying the thoughts of the nation's third president.  CW's  Nation Builders program offers first-person interpretations of 18th century Virginians, both the well-known, such as Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, and the lesser-known, including a preacher, a teacher, and a barkeep, all of  whose lives impacted the community.We attended a Nation Builders performance at the Kimball Theatre, with Stephen Seals portraying James (Armistead) Lafayette, a formerly enslaved African-American who earned his freedom for his spying services for the Patriots during the Revolutionary War; and Robert Weathers, who represents George Wythe, a jurist, scholar, and signer of the Declaration of Independence. Hellier addresses the difficulties in portraying African-American history in the Colonial period and details the extensive research she's done into the language varieties of the time. She's a contributor to enslaved.org, a database of information regarding enslaved people worldwide. She touts the importance of the Virginia Gazette newspaper as a source (digitized copies are available on the CW website, www.colonialwilliamsburg.org.) We're reminded too of the newspaper resources collected by the Library of Virginia, https://www.lva.virginia.gov/collections/digital-collectionsAnd the Valentine Museum in Richmond has a rich repository of African-American history, https://thevalentine.org/Check out our website, languagingHR.wordpress.com.

Send us a textPressure has a way of revealing what systems are really made of. We start with a bruising week and widen the lens: from alleged deodorant burns and the surge in hair relaxer lawsuits, to NHS resident doctors preparing to strike for pay and staffing, to the silent epidemic of “polite” horrible bosses who weaponise calm and call it leadership. The through line is accountability—of brands, employers, and all of us—to act with care when our choices touch other people's bodies, budgets, and futures.I share why our website will go offline briefly as we rebuild the back end, refresh masterclasses, and add guidance on using AI well. Too many of us try to outsource thinking to ChatGPT and get caught out; I'll show you how to use AI as an assistant, not a replacement. We speak frankly about the real cost of creating quality products as a small business, why discounts aren't a birthright, and how fair pricing keeps the lights on. If you love great stationery and practical career tools, you'll see how that vision is taking shape.Then we get tactical about work. The shouty boss is out; the nice-nasty manager is in. They smile, check on wellbeing, and quietly move the goalposts. Here's how to protect yourself: keep a burn folder, track patterns, mirror the politeness while holding firm boundaries, and use precise language when you push back. Employment protections are expanding, but your evidence is the bridge between harm and remedy. I also open up about ADHD and dyslexia—time blindness, memory gaps, and the systems that help me build: tightly scoped lists, device-based reminders, visual planners, and long blocks for deep work.We close with a sober look at a fatal hit-and-run and the duty that comes with a licence: if you're impaired, don't drive; if you hit anything or anyone, stop. Let the courts weigh evidence, not viral clips. If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who needs these tools, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Michael #1: Cyclopts: A CLI library A CLI library that fixes 13 annoying issues in Typer Much of Cyclopts was inspired by the excellent Typer library. Despite its popularity, Typer has some traits that I (and others) find less than ideal. Part of this stems from Typer's age, with its first release in late 2019, soon after Python 3.8's release. Because of this, most of its API was initially designed around assigning proxy default values to function parameters. This made the decorated command functions difficult to use outside of Typer.

This release was particularly interesting to me because of the improvements on the "free-threaded" variant of the interpreter. Specifically, the two major changes when compared to the free-threaded variant of Python 3.13 are: Free-threaded support now reached phase II, meaning it's no longer considered experimental The implementation is now completed, meaning that the workarounds introduced in Python 3.13 to make code sound without the GIL are now gone, and the free-threaded implementation now uses the adaptive interpreter as the GIL enabled variant. These facts, plus additional optimizations make the performance penalty now way better, moving from a 35% penalty to a 5-10% difference.” Lots of benchmark data, both ASGI and WSGI Lots of great thoughts in the “Final Thoughts” section, including “On asynchronous protocols like ASGI, despite the fact the concurrency model doesn't change that much – we shift from one event loop per process, to one event loop per thread – just the fact we no longer need to scale memory allocations just to use more CPU is a massive improvement. ” “… for everybody out there coding a web application in Python: simplifying the concurrency paradigms and the deployment process of such applications is a good thing.” “… to me the future of Python web services looks GIL-free.” Michael #3: Free-threaded GC The free-threaded build of Python uses a different garbage collector implementation than the default GIL-enabled build. The Default GC: In the standard CPython build, every object that supports garbage collection (like lists or dictionaries) is part of a per-interpreter, doubly-linked list. The list pointers are contained in a PyGC_Head structure. The Free-Threaded GC: Takes a different approach. It scraps the PyGC_Head structure and the linked list entirely. Instead, it allocates these objects from a special memory heap managed by the "mimalloc" library. This allows the GC to find and iterate over all collectible objects using mimalloc's data structures, without needing to link them together manually. The free-threaded GC does NOT support "generations” By marking all objects reachable from these known roots, we can identify a large set of objects that are definitely alive and exclude them from the more expensive cycle-finding part of the GC process. Overall speedup of the free-threaded GC collection is between 2 and 12 times faster than the 3.13 version. Brian #4: Polite lazy imports for Python package maintainers Will McGugan commented on a LI post by Bob Belderbos regarding lazy importing “I'm excited about this PEP. I wrote a lazy loading mechanism for Textual's widgets. Without it, the entire widget library would be imported even if you needed just one widget. Having this as a core language feature would make me very happy.” https://github.com/Textualize/textual/blob/main/src/textual/widgets/__init__.py Well, I was excited about Will's example for how to, essentially, allow users of your package to import only the part they need, when they need it. So I wrote up my thoughts and an explainer for how this works. Special thanks to Trey Hunner's Every dunder method in Python, which I referenced to understand the difference between __getattr__() and __getattribute__(). Extras Brian: Started writing a book on Test Driven Development. Should have an announcement in a week or so. I want to give folks access while I'm writing it, so I'll be opening it up for early access as soon as I have 2-3 chapters ready to review.

Racism does not always follow the patterns of aggressive behaviour, or outright attempts to violate the human rights and equality of racialized people. A study of the experiences of first- and second-generation Haitian and Jamaican Canadians sheds light on a form of racial exclusion sociologist Dr. Karine Coen-Sanchez calls polite racism. She joins us on our podcast today.

Tom Cruise 'Feels Used' by Ana De Armas: Actor 'Fears He'll Never Find Love Again' After Shocking Split Uber has revealed that it will start paying drivers to complete “digital tasks” to help with AI, but it isn't available to everyone just yet. A wild, very “polite” and possibly lonely black bear recently paid a visit to its neighbors at a Northern California zoo. Before opening for the day, staff at Sequoia Park Zoo in Eureka were conducting a routine inspection of the Redwood Sky Walk — a self-guided tour of local redwood history and ecology — when they were surprised by a unique visitor.

Father Shawn McCain Tirres | October 19, 2025 When's the last time you truly wrestled with God—not with polite prayers, but with honest, frustrated demands? Drawing from Jacob's all-night wrestling match and Jesus's parable of the persistent widow, Fr. Shawn challenges us to embrace a faith that refuses to give up, that's unafraid to get our hands dirty with God. This sermon calls us beyond cynicism and into the kind of stubborn, enduring faith grounded in prayer, scripture, and community that God is actually looking for.

Today we are sharing a coaching session where Eric discusses the concept of "polite lies" in the context of sales, particularly for contractors. These lies, such as "let me think about it" or "I need to talk to my wife," are presented as symptoms of poor communication and a lack of trust or perceived value created by the salesperson. Eric emphasizes that contractors often fail to secure a deal because they talk too much, do not listen effectively, or do not build an adequate emotional connection with the prospect, leading to uncertainty and the prospect's polite evasion. The conversation highlights the value of consistent training and self-awareness to correct these mistakes, with participants sharing personal stories to illustrate how improved communication techniques, such as asking open-ended questions and prioritizing listening, can successfully "flip the script" and close sales. Key Takeaways:  Prioritize listening more than speaking to effectively address the other person's uncertainties. Use any polite lies you hear as a gauge indicating that you need to work on your communication and self-awareness. Clearly outline processes and procedures so that others gain clarity on what comes next. Help others create urgency by asking them about the consequences of delaying their decision or project. Build genuine connections by allowing people to talk and share their stories rather than boasting about your awards or history.

Polite French is a travel cheat code. A single “Excusez-moi” can turn a hurried barista into a guide, a packed metro into a clear path, and a confused check into a smile and “l'addition” arriving without fuss. We sat down with Paul, a French native, to break down simple phrases and cultural nuances that make moving through France, Belgium, and other French-speaking regions easier, friendlier, and a lot more delicious.We start with the essentials: when to use bonjour versus bonsoir, why vous signals respect, and how “Excusez-moi, parlez-vous anglais ?” softens almost any interaction. From there, we get practical. You'll learn how to ask for help (Aidez-moi, s'il vous plaît), admit confusion (Je ne comprends pas), and get un-stuck quickly (Je suis perdu, Où est…?). We also cover the basics that save time and stress—finding les toilettes, asking for l'eau, and navigating taxis with a simple Où allez-vous and a pointed map. Along the way, Paul shares why effort matters more than perfect pronunciation and how a calm tone, a nod, and “s'il vous plaît” transform the whole vibe.Food lovers, this one's for you. We walk through ordering at cafés and bakeries: Je voudrais du pain, s'il vous plaît, un café, du thé, and the great national debate between pain au chocolat and chocolatine. You'll learn how to ask for the check with grace, spot the difference between a boulangerie, boucherie, and fromagerie, and even request a taste of cheese without overstepping. We wrap with easy goodbyes—Au revoir and À bientôt—so you leave every encounter on a warm note.Ready to travel lighter and connect deeper?

Krystal and Dedric Polite are real estate investors and stars of A&E's 50/50 Flip, where they transform rundown properties while building generational wealth. Based in North Carolina, the couple launched their real estate journey with a single Airbnb and have since flipped over 100 properties. Their success blends Krystal's expertise in systems and marketing with Dedric's skills in acquisitions and finance. Starting with wholesaling and using tools like DealMachine, they identified off-market deals and turned early setbacks into profitable lessons. Today, they run multiple businesses and a nonprofit, focusing on sustainable growth and educating aspiring investors through seminars and media appearances. Outside of business, the Polites are raising two young boys and remain passionate about inspiring others to achieve financial freedom through real estate. Their mission: build wealth, uplift their community, and show others what's possible—one property at a time. During the show we discussed: Importance of mindset in real estate wholesaling License or experience needed to start wholesaling Common mistakes on a first deal Choosing the right market as a beginner Top three marketing methods to master Building a motivated seller list on a budget Knowing if a property is a good deal and what to offer Assignment contract vs. purchase agreement Resources: https://politewealthportal.com/ https://dedricandkrystal.com/

Hey there! It's Michael here — and welcome back to another Happy English Sunday Speak. Every Sunday, I'll be here with a quick one-point tip to help you speak English more naturally. Now, sometimes in English we need to say “no,” but just saying no can sound too direct or even a little rude. So let's look at some casual, yet polite, natural ways to say no.If someone invites you to do something and you don't want to, you can say:“I'll pass.” Like, Want to come out for karaoke tonight? → Thanks, I'll pass.“Not really my thing.” Like, do you want to go bouldering? → Nah, That's not really my thing.And one that I like to use all the time is “It's not my cup of tea.” Like, Everyone's watching that new horror movie, but scary films are not my cup of tea.So, I'll pass,  It's not really my thing, and It's not my cult of tea. When you need to refuse or decline something, these all sound softer, more polite, and very natural. So how about you? What's something that's Not your cup of tea?
