Mark A. Beck earned a BA in Business and Japanese Language from Pacific University and an MBA from Harvard Business School. Over his three-decade corporate career, he served in executive leadership at Corning Incorporated, as Executive Vice President at Danaher Corporation, and as President and CEO of JELD-WEN, guiding the company through its IPO. Today, Mark owns three manufacturing companies, co-chairs KDC/ONE, and serves as board chair for Accendra Health (formerly Owens & Minor) and IDEX Corporation. Passionate about servant leadership, he serves as faculty for the Adler Fellowship Program and has taught strategic leadership of innovation as a Visiting Professor of Practice at Cornell University. Adrienne and Mark have been married for 38 years. They reside in Matthews, North Carolina, and are the parents of five children and two grandchildren. Together, they navigated unique life blessings, including caring for their youngest son, Wesley, who was born with a rare health condition and expected to live only a few months. Wesley lived for 20 years through many miracles and Adrienne's devoted caregiving. Following his passing, Adrienne resumed her educational goals and is on track to earn her bachelor's degree later this year. Deeply committed to faith, family, and community, both Mark and Adrienne have spent years serving in Church leadership—Mark previously served as a stake president, and Adrienne as a stake Young Women president and two-time ward Primary president. Today, the couple serve side-by-side as branch president and YSA advisor for the Hemby Young Single Adult Branch in the greater Charlotte area. Beyond hosting regular home dinners and monthly “Friday Night Hangouts,” they pioneered a stake-wide mentorship program that connects young adults with community members to provide life guidance, career coaching, trade school support, and spiritual growth for the rising generation.

Solutions include rotating members out briefly to lead discussions, utilizing dedicated group messaging apps, and holding casual home gatherings. Navigating the New Sunday Schedule: The transition to shortened 25-minute class periods brings anxiety, but leaders emphasize using official Church materials and maintaining realistic expectations while finding a new operational rhythm. Evolving YSA Dating Dynamics: Modern single adults face significant challenges in finding marriage partners due to shifting cultural values, delayed timelines, and differing personal or political priorities. Power of Informal Gatherings: Organic, non-assigned home study groups (e.g., Come, Follow Me or General Conference review groups) build deeper ward unity, psychological safety, and ministering opportunities than structured Sunday classes alone. Building Ward Culture: Leadership is fundamentally about culture-building. Leaders must proactively address secular cultural influences and create intentional spaces for gospel-centered connection. Leadership Applications Organize Organic Home Gatherings: Encourage members or leaders to host low-pressure home study groups (such as an empty-nester Come, Follow Me night) with snacks and informal discussion to strengthen local relationships. Rotate Out-of-Room Teachers: Elders Quorum and Relief Society presidencies can arrange substitutes for primary teachers once a quarter to allow them to attend adult classes or lead a discussion. Streamline Group Communication: Implement digital communication tools (e.g., GroupMe or Discord) to share ward event links and keep members serving in auxiliary callings informed on adult quorum activities.

CardioNerds (Dr. Apoorva Gangavelli, Dr. Cory Sejo, and Dr. Joseph Kassab), discuss tricuspid regurgitation evaluation and management with Dr. Sunil Mankad. This episode was produced as part of the CardioNerds Academy curriculum by House Einthoven under the guidance of House Chief, Dr. Apoorva Gangavelli and Academy Program Director, Dr. Gurleen Kaur. A matching review article will be published in US Cardiology Review, the official journal of CardioNerds. This discussion was planned in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic Cardiovascular Board Review Course.  Audio editing by CardioNerds intern Emma Winakur.

Key Points: Tricuspid regurgitation is common and associated with increased mortality at every stage, regardless of etiology. Outcomes are worse with worsening severity, so accurate grading is critical. Etiology is critical to guide treatment decisions. Etiology includes primary vs secondary (atrial or ventricular) vs CIED-related TR. 3D echocardiography can be very helpful in determining TR etiology, especially in CIED-related TR. Diuresis with the goal of euvolemia is step one. Additionally, underlying contributory conditions (eg. pulmonary HTN, HFrEF, atrial fibrillation) should be addressed, if appropriate, and then TR severity reassessed. The choice between T-TEER and TTVR hinges on anatomy, RV function, pulmonary hypertension, and the ability to tolerate anticoagulation. T-TEER is generally first line in atrial functional TR with appropriate anatomy, in patients with poor RV function who cannot tolerate a sudden increase in RV afterload, or in patients who cannot tolerate the necessary anticoagulation with TTVR. TTVR is preferred with wide coaptation gaps and CIED-related TR. This is a team sport. Multidisciplinary discussions utilizing imaging (TTE/TEE, CT), risk scores (TRI-SCORE or TRIO), patient preference, and prior institutional experience are essential for the effective treatment of severe TR. Notes: What is the clinical importance of tricuspid regurgitation? TR is very common with approximately 4% of people over 75 having moderate or greater severity. TR (even mild) is associated with increased mortality. Those outcomes worsen as the TR severity worsens, and this phenomenon is independent of the mechanism of regurgitation. What is unique about the tricuspid valve compared to the other cardiac valves? It is at an anterior location which allows it to be imaged well with transthoracic echocardiography It is the largest valve and composed generally of 3 leaflets (but very often can have 4+ leaflets). Importantly, the RV is compliant and changes size and shape readily based on loading conditions. The TV annulus similarly changes size and shape based on hemodynamic conditions such as preload. What is a good framework for approaching the causes of tricuspid regurgitation? Determine the presence and define the severity of TR. Using TTE, we want to measure the right atrial size, the RV size, and any other concomitant valvular lesions.  Use TTE (2D and 3D) to characterize leaflet anatomy and characteristics. Subtypes of TR mechanisms (many times etiology is mixed). Primary: primary leaflet abnormality, occurs in ~10% of cases. Look for prolapse, flail, endocarditis, etc. Secondary/functional: leaflets normal but surrounding structures are abnormal. Atrial: RA and tricuspid annular dilation but normal RV size/shape, and can be related to arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation. Ventricular: RV dilated and/or dysfunctional with leaflet tethering. Can be related to pulmonary hypertension or primary RV disease. Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED): Related to device (usually pacemakers or ICD) interaction with TV leaflets. Includes perforation, entanglement in subvalvular apparatus, impingement, etc. 3D TTE particularly helpful to evaluate How do we grade TR severity? It is very important to grade the severity of TR, and this is generally done with echocardiography. There are both quantitative and qualitative methods which use Doppler and various equations to estimate TR severity. Current recommendations have expanded TR severity beyond mild/moderate/severe to include “massive” and “torrential” categories. The most important parameters measured/calculated are vena contracta width, regurgitant volume, regurgitant fraction, and effective regurgitant orifice area. Helpful qualitative metrics include hepatic venous flow reversal. When should additional studies beyond transthoracic echocardiography, such as transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), cardiac computed tomography (CT), and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) be pursued? TEE is particularly helpful if TTE views are poor. Since TEE is used during transcatheter intervention, a pre-procedure TEE to define anatomy, determine procedure candidacy, and plan for the procedure is critical.  CT is also helpful for procedure planning and has particular strengths in defining annulus size and geometry. A CT is required prior to transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR). MRI is helpful for measuring RV volumes and function, but is not generally used to assess TR severity.  What is the approach to the treatment for severe tricuspid regurgitation? The first step is to try to determine the etiology. For secondary TR, treating the underlying condition is indicated. For example, pulmonary vasodilators for pulmonary HTN or guideline therapy for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Diuretics are the mainstay for treatment, with the goal to obtain euvolemia. This may require inpatient admission to optimize volume status and medication regimen. Once reversible etiologies are addressed, if the patient is still symptomatic from TR, additional therapies can be considered. What is the role of right heart catheterizations (RHC) in patients with severe TR? RHC is very helpful for many reasons. We use it in TR to help determine volume status, cardiac output, and RV function. Additionally, identifying and characterizing pulmonary hypertension (with pulmonary artery pressures and calculating pulmonary vascular resistance) is an important factor when choosing future therapies.  With severe tricuspid regurgitation, when should we refer for intervention (either with surgery or transcatheter repair or replacement)? Once reversible etiologies are addressed and euvolemia has been achieved, if the patient is still symptomatic from TR despite aggressive medical optimization, additional therapies can be considered. Once euvolemic, a repeat TTE should be ordered to reassess the severity of the TR. Use calculators (for example, either the TRI-SCORE or TRIO score) to predict operative mortality for isolated TR surgery. What are our transcatheter treatment options in severe tricuspid regurgitation, and how do we choose between them? The primary approved transcatheter treatment options for severe TR include transcatheter tricuspid edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER) and transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR), of which the Edwards EVOQUE valve is the only one currently approved by the FDA. There are other TTVR device under investigation. These decisions should be made with a multi-disciplinary team including representation from cardiac imaging, interventional cardiology, and cardiothoracic surgery. Factors that go into the decision between T-TEER and TTVR include anatomy (annulus width, coaptation gap, leaflet length), RV reserve, pulmonary hypertension presence, ability to tolerate anticoagulation, patient preference, and institutional experience.  T-TEER is generally the first line with atrial functional and suitable anatomy. It is successful at reducing TR but does not generally eliminate it.  TTVR with EVOQUE is preferred in certain anatomic considerations like a large coaptation gap or when there is CIED-related TR (as this was excluded in T-TEER trials). Patients must be suitable for anticoagulation to receive TTVR as there is risk of leaflet thrombosis without it. If moderate/severe pulmonary hypertension is present, or there is poor RV function, TTVR may be avoided as the sudden elimination of TR causes a sudden increase in RV afterload which may not be tolerated. What is the role in advanced metrics for evaluating RV function? Advanced metrics like RV/PA coupling are under investigation but have not made it into the guidelines. The clinical utility is not yet known.  Assessing the RV function is important as stated above. Dr. Mankad prefers using 3D TTE to calculate an RVEF, or tracking RV longitudinal free wall strain. If you do encounter CIED-related TR, how do you treat it? Evaluate with TTE or TEE. 3D is very helpful to identify relative anatomy and leaflet-device interactions. There is no clear consensus about treatment if CIED-related TR is the primary mechanism of severe TR. If recently implanted, repositioning may be a valid option, but requires discussions with multiple teams including electrophysiology, advanced cardiac imaging, CT surgery, and interventional cardiology.

Vermont Public's Capital Bureau reporter shares his analysis on key primary results, winners Amanda Janoo and Gerald Malloy reflect on their victories and a look at some local votes that also took place on election day.

Hours after David Crowley won his primary for governor, he was touring the state with other Democrats calling for the party to come together.

Tony Castañeda is back as host of the Thursday edition of the 8 O'Clock Buzz.  He's joined by a fired-up Matt Rothschild, former Executive Director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, and Charley Preusser, editor of the Crawford County Independent, to talk about the recent Democratic primary in Wisconsin. Tony's guests think there was unfair meddling by the Democratic Party establishment with the defeat of Francesca Hong in the governor's race and Emily Berge in Wisconsin's 3rd Congressional District.  But Hong herself seems committed to helping fellow Democrats in the upcoming election Francesca's grass-roots campaign and message of expanded healthcare for all, a moratorium on data centers, breaking up big Ag, and an economic justice bill of rights was appealing to voters across the state.  And her graciousness in an excruciatingly close defeat is to be admired.  Hopefully David Crowley, the winning Democratic candidate, has taken notes.  The most surprising result of the primary election wasn't the razor-thin governor's race, but that fact that hundreds of thousands of voters seem to think that Trump acolyte, Tom Tiffany, is qualified to be the next governor of Wisconsin.  Now that's scary.

Thaddeus McCotter analyzes the Michigan Senate race between Mike Rogers and Abdul El-Sayed, a Rhodes Scholar supported by the far-left DSA. El-Sayed's primary victory over the Democratic establishment highlights the growing influence of "woke" ideology in college towns. While El-Sayed attempts to pivot to the center for the general election, his lack of a public voting record makes his true agenda difficult to pin down. McCotter suggests the race will test whether voters will reject the "Jacobin" manifestations of cancel culture and extreme progressive policies in favor of a more traditional candidate. (9)

Gary's cheapness reaches legendary status when he botches a simple breakfast order and refuses to apologize — and the crew lets him have it over a croissant vs. toast debate that somehow turns into an emotional moment. Then the news gets serious: deadly storms tear through the Midwest, a four-year-old is killed, and a primary night delivers two major upsets that could make history in two different states. The Trump administration is making a move on desegregation orders in Louisiana that has civil rights advocates alarmed, and other states could be next. In sports, the WNBA's distractions are back in the spotlight, Steph Curry is cementing his legacy, and a WNBA superstar just landed on the Wheaties box — but the crew has thoughts about which cereal Black folks actually eat. Brat closes out the Hot Spot with a former president adding podcast host and actor to his resume — and a clip from his HBO acting debut that involves a very funny boundary about sharing drinks. Plus, one of the most legendary groups in hip-hop history might finally be dropping new music after 30 years, and the healing process behind their reunion is something you'll want to hear.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's podcast, Charlie Sykes and Matt discuss:—Why DSA member and failed Wisconsin candidate Francesca Hong was an “absurdly bad candidate” (and why Bernie and AOC stayed away)— How Dems realized they were about to blow a winnable race and hand Wisconsin to an election-denier, so they voted for David Crowley, a candidate who had previously dropped out of the race— Charlie says there are three things every candidate must prove to voters (Hong went 0-for-3)— Matt says 2026 is largely “baked in the cake” as a blue-wave year driven by Trump fatigue, overreach, tariffs, ICE, etc. But! Dems better not take 2028 for granted.— An Independent / Centrist / Unity-Ticket surge has Katie Hobbs (Arizona Democratic governor) picking a Republican running mate, and David Jolly (former Republican Never Trumper congressman) picking a prominent Democrat as running mate in Florida.— Can we trust the polls?— Plus: Trump's catering-truck Air Force One escape, the independent/unity-ticket surge, Minnesota, Michigan, and more.— And MUCH more!Subscribe to Matt Lewis on Substack: https://mattklewis.substack.com/Support Matt Lewis at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mattlewisFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MattLewisDCTwitter: https://twitter.com/mattklewisInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattlewisreels/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVhSMpjOzydlnxm5TDcYn0A– Who is Matt Lewis? –Matt K.

Most Americans checked out for August. Paul Rieckhoff didn't. From a beach house on Long Island, he cuts a fast, urgent episode to hit what the corporate media won't touch: today is primary day in Connecticut, Minnesota, Vermont, and Wisconsin, and across those four states 21 of 22 U.S. House races are effectively decided before November ever arrives. Connecticut is the sharpest example — the only fully closed primary this week — where 935,892 unaffiliated voters, the largest voting bloc in the state, are legally barred from casting a ballot in the election that will actually pick their representatives. Paul breaks down the numbers town by town, names the 129,563 Connecticut veterans caught in that lockout, and explains why so many of them refuse to join a party on principle — the same principle they swore an oath to defend. Then he pivots to Montana, where Democrat Alani Bankhead just blew past the 5 p.m. deadline to drop out, guaranteeing she'll split the anti-Republican vote and torpedo independent veteran Seth Bodnar's shot at an incumbent Trump rubber-stamper. It's a rigged two-party system on full display in a single news cycle — and a reminder that nobody else is counting these voters, so we will. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Check the IVA overview of Washington State's primary this week.  -Millions of American veterans are being locked out of primary elections in the country they served.
