In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier discussion on defining ‘done' in Agile – how to stay on Track and Avoid Scope Creep. They explain why “done” must mean more than “I finished coding,” and they show how a shared Definition of Done (DoD) keeps teams aligned and projects on schedule. What Does “Done” Really Mean? In Agile, “Done” extends beyond writing code. It often includes: Passing unit and integration tests Receiving QA approval Deploying to staging or production Updating documentation Securing acceptance sign-off Without a clear, documented DoD, each team member may interpret “done” differently. As a result, projects risk rework, delays, and frustration. “If we ask, ‘Is it done?' we should get a clear yes or no—no ‘sort of' or ‘almost.'” – Rob Broadhead Why Ambiguity Leads to Trouble Michael points out a common problem: a developer finishes their code, marks the ticket as done, and passes it to QA—only for testers to find gaps in the requirements. A login screen ticket might say “Allow users to log in with username and password.” But does that mean: Username is case-insensitive? Special characters are allowed? Do error messages display on failure? If these details aren't defined, both the developer and tester may interpret “done” differently, leading to frustration on all sides. The Link Between “Done” and Scope Creep Rob and Michael agree: unclear definitions open the door to scope creep. Without a firm DoD, features get stuck in an endless loop of revisions: Developers feel QA keeps moving the goalposts. QA feels developers aren't meeting the requirements. Clients think the delivered feature isn't what they expected. Over time, this erodes trust and pushes delivery dates further into the future. Lessons from the Field Michael contrasts two scenarios from his career that highlight the power of a strong Definition of Done. Before an acquisition, his team worked with a crystal-clear DoD. Every ticket had precise requirements, clear acceptance criteria, and well-defined testing steps. As a result, tasks finished on time, testing followed a predictable pattern, and rework was rare. The team knew exactly when work met the agreed standards, and stakeholders trusted that “done” truly meant done. After the acquisition, the situation changed dramatically. Tickets became vague and massive in scope, often resembling open-ended “make it work” directives. Multiple teams modified the same code simultaneously, resulting in merge conflicts, inconsistent results, and unpredictable delivery schedules. Without a clear DoD, developers, testers, and stakeholders all had different ideas of what completion looked like, and work frequently circled back for revisions. The difference between the two environments came down to one factor: a clear and enforceable Definition of done. In the first scenario, it acted as a shared contract for quality and completion. In the second, the lack of it created confusion, wasted effort, and missed deadlines. Building a Strong Definition of Done The hosts outline key components every DoD should include: Code complete and reviewed – Ensures quality and shared understanding. Automated tests passing – Reduces regressions. Documentation updated – Prevents future confusion. Deployment verified – Proves it works in the target environment. Acceptance criteria signed off – Confirms alignment with the original requirements. Pro Tip: Keep your tests fresh—don't just update them to pass without meeting the real requirement. Who Owns the DoD? One person doesn't own the DoD—it's a team responsibility. Product owners, Scrum Masters, and developers should collaborate to create and update it, reviewing it regularly to adapt to evolving project needs. Making “Done” Part of the Process Once defined, your DoD should be visible and integrated into your workflow: Add it to user stories during sprint planning. Track it in tools like Jira, Trello, or GitHub. Use workflow stages that match your DoD steps—coding, testing, review, deployment, and sign-off. Michael emphasizes that personal accountability matters just as much as team accountability. Great developers hold themselves to the DoD without needing reminders. Your Challenge: Define “Done” This Week If your team doesn't have a documented Definition of Done—or if it's been more than three months since you reviewed it—set aside time this week to: Write down your current DoD. Identify where ambiguity still exists. Get agreement from the entire team. Update your workflow so that every ticket must meet the DoD before it is closed. This single step can prevent months of wasted effort and ensure your work delivers exactly what's intended. The Bigger Picture A well-defined DoD is more than a checklist—it's your guardrail against wasted effort and shifting goals. It ensures the final product matches what the client truly needs, not just what was coded. Your Definition of Done is your “why” for each task—it keeps your work focused, aligned, and valuable.

In this groundbreaking episode of Menopause Mastery, Dr. Betty Murray sits down with Dr. Daved Rosensweet—a physician with 55 years of experience who has been fighting for women's hormone rights since before most of us were born—to break down the game-changing FDA meeting that happened last week. For the first time in decades, the FDA is considering removing the black box warning from estrogen that has terrorized women and doctors for over 20 years. Dr. Rosensweet calls it "the biggest healthcare mistake of our time," and he's not wrong—this false warning has kept millions of women from life-saving hormone therapy. But here's what the media isn't telling you: the science has ALWAYS shown that women on hormones have LESS risk of breast cancer, heart attack, and stroke than women who go untreated. Yes, you read that right—LESS risk, not more. Dr. Rosensweet and Dr. Betty dive deep into why compounding bioidentical hormones are the gold standard, how to find the right provider, and why every woman—regardless of age—deserves to investigate hormone therapy. They also tackle the controversial topic of testosterone for women and why it's not a "male hormone" but a human hormone essential for muscle preservation and brain health. What You'll Learn: -The real science behind hormone therapy and breast cancer risk -Why women who've HAD breast cancer are actually safer on hormones -The truth about compounding pharmacies vs. commercial hormones -Why symptom relief isn't enough—you need proper testing -How to find a qualified hormone specialist -Why it's never "too late" to start hormone therapy If you're tired of being scared away from the hormones your body desperately needs, this episode will give you the courage and knowledge to take back control of your health.  Links: Menrva Telemedicine: https://gethormonesnow.com/ FREE Hormone Quiz: https://bit.ly/3wNJOec Living Well Dallas: https://www.livingwelldallas.com/ Hormone Reset: https://hormonereset.net/ Betty Murray Website: https://www.bettymurray.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BettyAMurrayCN/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbettymurray/ Produced by Evolved Podcasting: https://www.evolvedpodcasting.com/   Connect with Dr. Betty Murray: Website: https://www.bettymurray.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BettyAMurrayCN/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bettymurray_phd/ Connect with Dr. Daved Rosensweet https://www.davedrosensweetmd.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/davedrosensweetmd/   Thank you for listening to Menopause Mastery.

This is the Progress Powering Tomorrow. Allen Hall: Jeremy, welcome back to the show. Thanks for having me. Well, the recent changes in the IRA bill are. Pushing a lot of projects forward very quickly at the moment, and as we're learning, there's a number of safe harbor blades sitting in yards and a rush to manufacture blades to get them up and meet the, uh, treasury department's criteria for, for being started, whatever that means. At the moment, I think we're gonna see a big question about the quality of the blades, and it seems to me. The cheapest time to quickly [00:01:00] look at your blaze before you start to hang them is while they're still on the ground. And to get some n DT experience out there to make sure that what you're hanging is appropriate. Are you starting to see that push quite yet? No, not not at  Jeremy Heinks: the level we'd like to see it. Um, as far as getting the inspections in, yeah, we have been seeing the push to get the, get these blades out. Uh, but, uh, the, the, the few that we have been able to get our eyes on aren't looking good. The quality definitely down. And we've just had a customer site come back with some, some findings that were surprising for a brand new blade that hasn't been the up tower yet and in use. So, um, it is much easier for us to get the, uh, technology and the personnel to a blade that's on the ground. It's cheaper, it's quicker. We can go through many, many more blades, uh, with inspections. Uh, it's just access is just easier. Always comes down to access.  Joel Saxum: That customer that you had there, like what was their [00:02:00]driver? Right? Did they feel the pain at some point in time? Did they, did they have suspicions of something not right? New factory? Like, I don't know. Why would some, why is someone picking that over someone? Not because like you said, overwhelmingly. The industry doesn't really do this. You know, even just getting visual inspections of blades on the ground before they get hung is tough sometimes with construction schedules and all these different things, moving parts. So you had someone that actually said, Hey, we want to NDT these blades. What was their driver behind that?  Jeremy Heinks: So we, uh, we had done a previous, uh, route of inspections on some older ative of theirs that were,  Speaker 5: um,  Jeremy Heinks: getting. Kinda along in the tooth, if you will. Uh, so they've added some experience. They saw what we could bring to the table as far as results and, and, and information and data on those blades. Uh, and it all turned out to be, um, pretty reliable. So, um, you know, we educated them on, you know, if you have new blades coming in or even use the blades coming in for replacement, that it's not a bad idea to get at least a, a sample it. And, uh, [00:03:00] basically that's what they call us in to do. They had some brand new blades come in. For some new turbines they're putting up. And, uh, they wanted the sampling. We did a sampling and the sample showed that, uh, they have an issue of these, these brand new blades.  Joel Saxum: So, okay, so what happens then? Right?

Amanda Giguere is the director of outreach for Colorado Shakespeare Festival and her research and work putting together touring productions of Shakespeare in schools has resulted in her new book Shakespeare & Violence Prevention. Amanda discusses how valuable this work is and how it began; addresses the counter-intuitive notion that Shakespeare – the author of such violent plays – can be so useful in this kind of work; how Twelfth Night is a perfect tool, even for elementary school students, and why Titus Andronicus really isn't; the importance of climate awareness; the vital distinction that it's not the “Shakespeare Prevention Program,” it's the “Violence Prevention Through Shakespeare Program;” and how violence, like heart disease, is preventable.

Table of Contents The Spark: Turning a Fun Idea into a Thriving Business What Makes Foam Parties So Popular? Behind the Scenes: How Bubble Bash Operates Safety First: Creating a Fun and Secure Environment Building Community: The Power of Local Networks Expanding the Fun: Beyond Kids' Parties Lessons in Entrepreneurship: Balancing Family, Passion, and Business Actionable Tips for Hosting a Memorable Foam or Bubble Party The Heart of Grayslake: Kindness, Connection, and Community How to Book Your Own Bubble Bash Experience 1. The Spark: Turning a Fun Idea into a Thriving Business Kori Pelikan's story is a classic example of how a simple, personal need can ignite a business idea. When planning her daughter's birthday, Kori wanted something unique. She discovered foam machines, bought one, and the party was such a hit that neighbors and friends immediately asked, “Can you do this for us?” Key Takeaways: Start with a personal need:** The best business ideas often come from solving your own problems. Test the waters:** Kori's first event was a low-risk trial that validated the concept. Listen to your audience:** Immediate positive feedback from guests signaled a real demand. Expert Advice:   If you're considering starting a business, look for opportunities in your own life. What do you wish existed? What gets people talking and asking for more? 2. What Makes Foam Parties So Popular? Foam parties aren't just a passing trend—they're a sensory, social, and safe way for kids (and adults!) to let loose. Kori notes that the laughter and joy are infectious, and the novelty never seems to wear off. Why Foam Parties Work: Universal appeal:** Kids of all ages love the tactile, immersive experience. Repeat business:** Many families and organizations book Bubble Bash year after year. Social media gold:** The visual spectacle makes for shareable, memorable photos. Pro Tip:   Capture candid moments and share them with your guests. Kori sends photos to families after events, creating lasting memories and organic marketing. 3. Behind the Scenes: How Bubble Bash Operates Running a foam party business is more than just turning on a machine. Kori's approach is professional, efficient, and community-focused. Logistics and Equipment Foam Cannons:** Kori owns two, allowing her to serve multiple events or larger crowds. Setup Needs:** Access to water and electricity is essential. Coordination with venues is key. Duration:** Most parties last about an hour—enough for high-energy fun, then a smooth transition to food or rest. Weather:** Rain doesn't stop the party; kids are already getting wet! Environmental and Safety Considerations Hypoallergenic Foam:** Safe for kids, pets, and lawns. Grass Care:** Kori rotates the foam area to prevent lawn damage. Clean-Up:** The foam dissipates naturally, leaving no mess behind. Actionable Advice: Always do a site check before the event to ensure access to utilities. Communicate clearly with hosts about what's needed for setup and teardown. Invest in quality, safe foam solutions from reputable suppliers. 4. Safety First: Creating a Fun and Secure Environment Safety is at the heart of every Bubble Bash event. Kori's background as a teacher shines through in her clear, consistent rules and her ability to manage groups of excited kids. Core Safety Rules No running or sliding:** Prevents slips and falls. No diving or cannonballing:** The foam isn't deep—remind kids it's not a pool! No sitting under the foam:** Ensures visibility and prevents accidental bumps. Implementation Rules Stand:** Kori sets up a visible sign at public events. Active Supervision:** She keeps a close eye on the crowd and gently reminds kids as needed. Inclusive Fun:** Even grandparents have joined in—one memorable guest navigated the foam with her walker! Expert Insight:   Safety doesn't have to kill the fun. Set expectations early, use positive language, and model the behavior you want to see. 5. Building Community: The Power of Local Networks Bubble Bash's success is rooted in community connections. Kori leverages local mom groups, Facebook communities, and word-of-mouth to grow her business. Strategies for Community Engagement Join local groups:** Participate in online forums and neighborhood networks. Collaborate, don't compete:** Kori often refers clients to other foam party businesses when she's booked, fostering goodwill. Support local events:** Bubble Bash is a fixture at Grayslake's Battle of the Bands, summer kickoffs, and more. Pro Tip:   Don't underestimate the power of grassroots marketing. Authentic relationships and community involvement build trust and loyalty. 6. Expanding the Fun: Beyond Kids' Parties While Bubble Bash is best known for children's events, Kori is open to new markets. Adult and Teen Events Glow-in-the-dark foam:** Black lights and colored foam create a nightclub vibe. College and community events:** There's untapped potential for older audiences. Rebranding:** Kori is considering a separate identity to appeal to non-kid markets. Actionable Advice: Survey your audience to gauge interest in new offerings. Experiment with themed events (e.g., “Foam Olympics” fundraisers). Adjust your branding and messaging to match the target demographic. 7. Lessons in Entrepreneurship: Balancing Family, Passion, and Business Kori's journey is a testament to the power of reinvention. After 20 years as a teacher, she pivoted to entrepreneurship during the pandemic, seeking flexibility and joy. Key Lessons Follow your happiness:** Don't let fear of judgment hold you back. Seasonal balance:** Bubble Bash is full-time from May to October, allowing Kori to “hibernate” and recharge in the off-season. Family first:** Kori proudly identifies as a mom above all, structuring her business around her children's needs. Expert Insight:   Entrepreneurship is about designing a life that fits your values. Don't be afraid to pivot, and keep your options open for future opportunities. 8. Actionable Tips for Hosting a Memorable Foam or Bubble Party Ready to bring the Bubble Bash experience to your next event? Here's how to make it unforgettable: Planning and Preparation Book early:** Summer weekends fill up fast. Choose the right location:** Flat, grassy areas work best; ensure access to water and power. Communicate with your host:** Share setup needs and safety rules in advance. During the Event Set clear rules:** Post them visibly and review with guests. Capture the moment:** Take candid photos and share them with families. Rotate the foam area:** Protect your lawn and keep the fun moving. After the Party Share your experience:** Post photos on social media and tag Bubble Bash. Give feedback:** Let Kori know what worked and what could be improved. Spread the word:** Word-of-mouth is the best marketing! 9. The Heart of Grayslake: Kindness, Connection, and Community At the end of our conversation, I shared a reminder that resonates with the spirit of Grayslake: you never know what someone else is going through. A simple act of kindness—a smile, a compliment, holding the door—can make all the difference. Let's keep Grayslake a place where: Neighbors support neighbors. Local businesses lift each other up. Every child (and adult!) gets a chance to play, laugh, and belong. 10. How to Book Your Own Bubble Bash Experience Ready to add some bubbly fun to your next event?

This episode reveals how fasting is the most powerful tool for preventing cardiovascular disease and reversing metabolic dysfunction that affects 88% of Americans. Dr. Scott and Tommy explain why fasting goes far beyond weight loss to address the root cause of heart disease: insulin resistance and dangerous blood sugar variability. Discover how consistent fasting protocols can dramatically reduce your risk when every 1% increase in A1C levels raises heart problems by 12%, major cardiovascular events by 8%, and heart-related kidney issues by 17%. Learn why diabetics with the highest blood sugar swings face 2.5 times higher heart disease risk - and how fasting flattens these dangerous glucose spikes. The hosts break down how fasting reverses metabolic syndrome (affecting 25% of the population) and helps the 70-80 million undiagnosed pre-diabetics who have normal A1C but dangerously high fasting insulin levels. Understand how fasting prevents the "rust on a bumper" effect of cardiovascular disease that develops slowly over decades. Get specific fasting strategies for reducing glycemic variability, controlling insulin spikes, and using intermittent fasting as cardiovascular protection. This episode reveals why monitoring fasting insulin during your fasting journey is more important than cholesterol panels, and how consistent fasting protocols reverse the inflammatory cascade leading to heart disease, stroke, and metabolic syndrome. Essential for anyone using fasting to prevent cardiovascular disease and optimize metabolic health for life. ⁠⁠⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠30% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

45. Are you craving this July 4th weekend like water after a drought? That sense of spaciousness you feel when you finally unplug—imagine having that every single week. Here's the hard truth: 59% of employees report feeling burned out very often or always (Gallup, 2024). The WHO found that working 55+ hours increases stroke risk by 35%. Our always-on culture is literally killing us—and traditional "solutions" aren't working.But what if instead of managing burnout after it happens, we could prevent it from ever taking root?As someone who job shared for nearly a decade starting when my daughter was 6 months old, I can tell you: job sharing doesn't just reduce burnout—it eliminates it completely. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly how job sharing flips the script on overwork culture.In Episode 45, you'll discover:5 ways job sharing prevents burnout before it startsHow I got 13 consecutive days off using only 3 vacation daysWhy job sharers perform 30% better than full-time employeesThe boundary accountability that keeps you actually off when you're offIf you're tired of glorifying overwork and ready to eliminate burnout instead of just managing it, job sharing might be your answer.

In this short but impactful solo episode, Andrew dives into a common misconception in training: that more is always better. If you—or someone you know—are training hard 6–7 days a week but not seeing the progress you expect, this episode is for you. Andrew explains why piling on more volume or sessions can actually stall your progress, especially when recovery and quality are overlooked.He breaks down the principles of general adaptation and supercompensation, reminding us that adaptation only happens when training is paired with adequate recovery. In today's world of well-rounded training programs, adding more often leads to redundancy and overlapping stressors that the body can't effectively adapt to. The solution? Focus on quality over quantity and make sure every session has purpose.Whether you're an athlete, coach, or serious about performance, this episode challenges you to reframe how you approach your workload. Progress doesn't come from doing more—it comes from doing better and recovering smarter. Tune in to hear Andrew's insights and apply them to elevate your training game. Enjoy the episode!

  Episode Overview Andy reads Chapter 1 from his new book, "The Inappropriate Guide to Buying An Engagement Ring" - a no-bullshit diamond and ring buying guide for guys who'd rather be anywhere else than a jewelry store. This episode covers the single most important piece of advice for buying an engagement ring without getting screwed over. Key Takeaways The Golden Rule: Find a jewelry store where you feel comfortable going. That's it. That's the secret. Why This Matters: Walking into most jewelry stores feels unnatural for guys Everything's behind glass, salespeople hover like vultures You suddenly don't know what to do with your hands It's a special kind of hell for men who've fallen in love Finding Your Unicorn Jewelry Store: Ask friends who actually know you and get your style Search for independent jewelers online Check their reviews, website, and social media Look for their vibe - stuffy/formal vs. laid back/approachable How to Find Your "Guy on the Inside" Three Methods: Email the store - Tell them you need help. If the response feels too formal or generic, move on. Call them - A good jeweler on the phone is like a good first date - there's either chemistry or there isn't. Walk in and get down to business - Most terrifying but nothing beats face-to-face. You'll know within 5 minutes if it's your place. What Your "Guy" Should Do Ask questions about her taste and what you want to give her Address your budget head-on (it's part of the equation) Guide you like that bartender who remembers your drink and steers you toward the good stuff Make you feel like a human being, not a walking wallet with commitment issues Andy's Controversial Advice When it feels right - buy it. Don't do the "I need to look around" dance that fear makes you think you have to do. When it clicks, it clicks. Pull the trigger and be done with it. Why this works: Saves weeks of second-guessing Prevents comparing minute details that won't matter in 5 years You don't need to become a diamond expert - you need someone you trust who does this for a living The Bottom Line Find a jewelry store where you don't feel like you're standing there with your zipper open (but check that before you go in, just to be safe). Connect with someone who speaks your language, not "diamond-ese." When it feels right, trust your gut and pull the trigger. About the Book "The Inappropriate Guide to Buying An Engagement Ring" is available on Amazon. Andy is creating an audio version while keeping the podcast going by reading chapters on the show. Warning: Contains raw language, unfiltered advice, and the kind of talk you'd get from your most honest friend after a few drinks.

This is the Progress Powering tomorrow. Allen Hall: Joe, welcome to the show.  Joseph Chacon: Thank you. I appreciate it.  Allen Hall: Well, I'm glad we connected, uh, through Jon Zalar, I believe, and we don't talk electrical power creation or what that. Kind of power we're creating and what the effect of that power is on systems downstream very often, uh, the Uptime podcast, because there's so many wind turbine issues, is mostly focused on mechanical problems. But we're finding that more and more problems may have an electrical origin. We wanted to get an expert in here that would be you to come help us on harmonics because there are requirements about harmonics.  Joseph Chacon: There are, uh, IEEE five 19 governs [00:01:00] the requirements for harmonics. At the point of common coupling. Allen Hall: That's correct. And your prior experiences with ge, which is now GE Renova down in South Carolina, that's correct. But you were involved, maybe give a brief description of the things you're working on because when electrical people talk, um, kind of gets lost in translation. You were knee deep, maybe waist deep, maybe eyeballs deep and electrical  Joseph Chacon: power at GE Renova? No, not, not knee deep, not weight deep, waist deep. I was baptized, completely immersed all the way in. I came shortly after the Enron acquisition. Um, I was one of the electrical engineering managers at the time. We had, uh, I think two or three at the time. Um, this was pretty early on. Uh, I got out of that because, uh, I'm, I like management, but I, I like electrical engineering, so I wanted to go back to being an individual contributor. Um, so I've touched just about [00:02:00] every electrical thing you can think of in a wind turbine. And also in solar  Joel Saxum: as well. You know, a little bit of a sidebar here 'cause I want, we want to definitely get into this deep technical conversation, but Joe, you touched on something that happens to people, right? You're a really good engineer, you've run a team, you've solved some problems. So now you get promoted to management, but you don't get to engineer as much anymore. So you get, like, you get, you start being leadership and like doing all these things, how to manage people, how to run a team, this, that, and that's great. We need that. The industry, every industry globally, we need to be able to do those things. But for engineers that have engineer at heart, and I'm, I'm also looking at you, Alan Hall. Uh, they, they wanna be able to engineer, right? They wanna be able to do stuff to make a difference to, to, to get hands on with a problem. So, so you, so you've done that though, right? That that's you, you are now, uh, Josh Shahan is, uh, pad LLC and  Joseph Chacon: pod is short for Padre, which is what my kids and grandchildren call me. They just shortened it from Padre to podge. 'cause saying two [00:03:00]syllables was too much and I liked it.  Joel Saxum: Yeah, I like that. Okay, so, so, so like we said, uh, you, you, you guys, you're getting deep into harmonics and other issues. You get called in by Solar Farms to solve problems and, and this is the thing Alan and I were kind of talking about off air a little bit is.

Allen Hall: ONYX Insight's ecoPITCH monitoring system has become crucial for wind farm operators facing blade root insert failures. These failures start invisibly but can end catastrophically with blades detaching completely. This week we speak with Forrest French Senior Project Engineer, and Martin McLarnon, sales Director for North America at ONYX Insight. Their ecoPITCH system detects dangerous movements before visible signs appear as Forest notes in the interview. By the time you can get a feeler gauge measurement, it's probably too late. So join us to discover how data-driven monitoring is helping operators make smarter maintenance decisions preventing million dollar disasters and keeping turbines spinning safely. Welcome to Uptime Spotlight, shining Light on Wind. Energy's brightest innovators. This is the progress powering tomorrow. Allen Hall: Martin and Forest. Welcome to the [00:01:00] show. Hello. How's it going? Thanks for letting us. Yeah, we're really interested to, to talk to you today just because there's so many blade root issues from pitch bearings and blade bushings or inserts as they're called sometimes, and a number of other issues. And when we talk to operators, what they tell us is, oh, we, you use ecoPITCH. And they love that system. But I want to, I wanna back up first and talk about what are some of the operators experiencing out there in the field And ecoPITCH system was originally developed to look at pitch bearing problems and forests. What are some of those pitch bearing problems you're seeing out in the field today? Forrest French: Yeah, so it, it, it's a funny story. It was originally developed for pitch bearing, uh, applications. Um, the industry as a whole started experiencing this root insert issue, so we were able to, we were kind of in a perfect position, right? It was, it was a, it was a [00:02:00] really serendipitous thing that we, we had just developed this product and we could easily pivot. To measure both the pitch bearing and this root insert issue. Uh, the, the pitch bearing issues are admittedly the, the more difficult, uh, issue, right? To measure. Um, there's, there's some, some great opportunities for value and there's also some really good challenges to come along with that. Um, pitch bearings, uh, they, they don't rotate quickly. Right. Uh, when, when we talk about typical CMS typical vibration monitoring, you're looking at a very, very fast rotating, uh, shaft or bearing, et cetera, and you're able to pick up on those frequencies as they revolve. You don't get that with a pitch bearing. It's a very slow moving, uh, slewing bearing. Um, so picking up. Noise through vibration can be very difficult, uh, because again, you don't get that frequency of that [00:03:00] rotation, so you're left with nothing but uh, a bunch of noise. Right. And you're hoping that that noise floor is low enough that you might capture a bit of crunching of cage material or anything like that? Right. The alternative in what, in what we use ecoPITCH for is it's very simple. We, we point a an inductive displacement sensor right at the pitch bearing itself. Typically the inner ring, depending on the type of turbine. And what we're looking for is any kind of slop or displace...

Benjamin Netanyahu's government may have announced plans to intensify its Gaza offensive and call up thousands of reservists – but "many Israelis, and especially the IDF top brass, are actually hoping that President [Donald] Trump will again intervene and reach some kind of deal," Haaretz senior security analyst Amos Harel said on the Haaretz Podcast. Pressure from the American president will be the only way Netanyahu can resist the "huge political pressure to proceed" with the escalation and a long-term military presence in Gaza placed on him by far-right ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, Harel said. "Unless Trump decides to intervene, we might be facing a massive military operation, and in my view, that would be a disaster." Speaking with podcast host Allison Kaplan Sommer, Harel assessed the war's multiple fronts in Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran, emphasizing that in nearly every case, the will – and whims – of the U.S. president plays a decisive role. "It's quite clear that Trump is less interested than before and talks less about the Palestinian conflict and the Gaza Riviera idea – it may be because he fears failure there. He seems to prefer to invest his time and efforts in the Saudis, Emiratis, and Qataris who are offering him trillions of dollars in deals in weapons or technology. This is what Trump is focused on."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Dr Steve and Drew talk about burnout. You might be doing everything right, eating well, exercising, chasing your goals, but if you're subluxated, you'll never truly fire on all cylinders. When your body is clear, everything shifts: your energy rises, your mind sharpens, your vibrancy returns, and you start seeing life through a whole new lens. There's a big difference between feeling tired and being completely burned out. Subluxation keeps your body starved for life, holding you back from your full potential.

Forgiveness is for you and not them. Is it? Maybe. On one hand it is, as forgiveness is something that we do because we submit to God and understand that he forgives us daily so we forgive so that we don't hold on to things. But is there another step to take? Why do we stop there? As we represent Christ, his grace and mercy…forgiveness actually is for the other person too. Today we're talking about forgiveness, reconciliation and the pride that prevents us from doing both. A new episode starts now.
