Today, Hunter sat down with Dr. Shameka Stewart, a juvenile forensic speech language pathologist. While speech language pathologists have long been around, Dr. Stewart is the first person to take the field and apply it to juvenile forensics. The promise of the field was on display as she served as an expert witness for the defense team during the trial of Nikolas Cruz. For those in the criminal defense community, this under utilized forensic science could prove to be one of the most important pieces of evidence against guilt or during mitigation.     Guests: Dr. Shameka Stewart, Juvenile Forensic Speech Language Pathologist     Resources: Contact Dr. Stewart https://www.juvforensicslp.com/ Linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-stewart-032b5a96 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/drjuvenile_forensicslp/ Twitter https://twitter.com/drsstanford1     Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN

Detours are always unexpected and often lead to shame or blame or paralysis. What if God was using the detours in our life to develop us in order to fully realize His will for our lives? Series Description As humans, we often experience highs and lows in life. Rarely are we able to comprehend God's ultimate purposes and sovereignty in our lives. Especially as we navigate the highs and lows. The Bible often answers our lack of understanding not with “why,” but with “who.” The story of Joseph, in the book of Genesis, is a story of extreme highs and lows. Through his story, we get glimpses of the why behind his highs and lows, but more importantly, we're reminded of WHO is with when we experience highs and lows. In this series, we're going to grapple with the will of God and how in the seemingly uncertain moments of life we can be assured of His presence.

One of my first jobs was as a lifeguard at Alta Canyon Swimming Pool. To earn extra cash, I taught swim lessons. I also worked at Dry Cleaners, a yogurt shop, a pharmaceutical company, and about three other companies/careers before starting the Adaption Institute. One of my favorite things to do at the Adaption Institute when it was just starting was coaching people in their careers. I learned so much from hearing people's stories and experiences. There is something great about getting the advice of someone who has “been there and done that.” My combined experience with those of over 3,000 people I have worked with over the years has come to you in this podcast.

The Word Before Work
I rarely cry. But I weep over this obscure passage.

Sign-up for my free 20-day devotional, The Word Before Work Foundations, at http://TWBWFoundations.com--Series: Wisdom for Work from DavidDevotional: 2 of 7[King David] asked, “Is there no one still alive from the house of Saul to whom I can show God's kindness?” Ziba answered the king, “There is still a son of Jonathan; he is lame in both feet.”...When Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he bowed down to pay him honor. David said, “Mephibosheth!” “At your service,” he replied. “Don't be afraid,” David said to him, “for I will surely show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table.” Mephibosheth bowed down and said, “What is your servant, that you should notice a dead dog like me?”...So Mephibosheth ate at David's table like one of the king's sons. (2 Samuel 9:3,6-8,11)I don't cry much, but I have wept over this passage numerous times. Why? Because I think it's one of the best pictures we have in Scripture of Christ-like love.By the world's standards, Mephibosheth would have been the least likely person David would have shown kindness to for three reasons.First, Mephibosheth was David's enemy, at least by extension. When David asked if there was anyone “from the house of Saul,” that he could show kindness to, his courtiers would have been flabbergasted. I can imagine them saying, “You want to show love to one of Saul's descendants? The guy who used to hurl spears at you while you innocently played a harp? That Saul, David!?”Second, Mephibosheth was a social outcast, due to being “lame in both feet.” In David's day, the crippled and disabled were not looked upon with compassion. They were kept at arm's length—outside the temple, palace, and social circles of the day. Which is why Mephibosheth was stunned to learn that David would even “notice a dead dog” like him.Third, Mephibosheth was unable to repay David's kindness. He had nothing to offer the king in return because of his social position.For those reasons, David's announcement that he wanted to show kindness to Mephibosheth would have made absolutely no sense to the world. But it makes all the sense in the world once you understand the motivation behind David's kindness.In today's passage, David didn't ask who he could show kindness to, but who he could show “God's kindness” to. The Hebrew word there is hesed, and it is the same word David used to describe the kindness God had shown him in Psalm 86:12-13: “I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart…For great is your love (hesed) toward me.”You see, David understood that were it not for the hesed love God had shown him, he would be God's enemy; he would be a social outcast; he would be poor. David was amazed by grace. And that is why he is intent on sharing God's lovingkindness with others—especially enemies, outcasts, and the poor like Mephibosheth.I pray the same would be even more true of you and me because we have seen God's hesed in the ultimate. Christ died for us when we were his enemies; when we were Eden's outcasts; when we were spiritually bankrupt. And so, we are called to go and do likewise, laying down our lives for the Mephibosheths we live and work with.Who is a Mephibosheth you can share God's kindness with today? Maybe it's an enemy, competitor, or a co-worker who's competing against you for the same job. Maybe it's a socially awkward team member who has quietly become an outsider. Maybe it's an intern who is unlikely to ever repay you for serving them and their career.Whoever just came to mind, commit to showing that person God's hesed love today.

Vikings 1st & SKOL: A Minnesota Vikings podcast

Welcome to another engaging episode of The Real Forno Show with your host, Tyler Forness. Our focus? Your favorite team - the Minnesota Vikings! We're going all-in on the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, dissecting the strategies that the team might employ and the players they might be eyeing. The Minnesota Vikings are primed to make some big moves this year. They're seriously considering trading up for a quarterback. Even if that doesn't happen, it's still highly probable that they'll select one. But who could it be? We're delving into the potential picks and their chances at success. The truth is, not every quarterback is going to hit the mark. It's a matter of probability. Rarely do more than two quarterbacks hit in an NFL draft cycle. When that does happen, it's reminiscent of the 2004 NFL draft. As we inch closer to the draft, we've been looking at why each of the six likely options for the Vikings at quarterback could succeed. But what about the reasons why they might fail? We're examining six standout prospects: Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, J.J. McCarthy, Michael Penix Jr, Bo Nix, and Spencer Rattler. Each of these players has a path to success, but what hurdles could they encounter on their journey? We'll be discussing their strengths, their potential weaknesses, and the challenges they might face in the NFL. This is not a conversation you want to miss. So join us on this journey as we break it all down, providing you with informed and engaging content about your beloved Vikings.

We look back at our highlights from the '23-'24 figure skating season, talk about the World's exhibition gala, conjecture on possible retirements and team changes, examine the state of figure skating and FS fandom, and hand out our season-end Gold in Our Hearts awards.   The 2023-2024 figure skating season is over — now what?! Before we settle into the off-season, let's recap some of the best moments of the season and dig into some thoughts on what's to come in the sport we love. Whether it was the Quad God Ilia Malinin claiming his first World title in World Record fashion, or the volatile rise of Adam Siao Him Fa, it's easy to see why the men's discipline has been probably the most exciting of the season. The men from Japan alone proved they could have a competition as compelling as the World Championships with their two top men — the glorious Shoma Uno and sublime Yuma Kagiyama — leading a field of so many medal contenders its sad to see any get left off the World team. Now that we're halfway through the Olympic quadrennial, things are about to get even more interesting — and more serious for everyone. What may we see next year? Maybe the first quint? It's very possible. Outside of the men's division, though, it's been a great if unpredictable season for the women. Queen Kaori Sakamoto's three-peat World victory was historic and not surprising, but many of the other women seemed to struggle to find their consistency this year. However, the rise of Ava Marie Ziegler from the United States, Hana Yoshida from Japan, and Nina Pinzarrone of Belgium lit up the sport and gave us some enthusiasm for the future. Also, after such an up and down year, it was heart-warming to see Isabeau Levito fight for her first World silver and remind us all that she's a force in this sport. The dance discipline held true to its standard of being the most predictable, with the same top teams from last season remaining on top. However, we saw some hints that a changing of the guard may soon be on the horizon. For all our love of Chock & Bates, admiration of Gilles & Poirier, and awe at Guignard & Fabbri, we're slowly starting to see a shift in Ice Dance that may lift teams like Lajoie & Lagha, Fear & Gibson, and maybe even Carreira & Ponomarenko to the podium. How that will rollout over the next season is TBD, but it'll be interesting to watch. Last but NEVER least, the pairs discipline saw the biggest emotional moment of the season with Deanna Stellato-Dudek & Maxime Deschamps finishing the season is storybook fashion by winning their first World title on home ice. Rarely have we seen a moment in the sport as inspiring as this one, and it will be remembered for years to come. That said — outside of them, Japan's Riku Miura & Ryuchi Kihara, Germany's Minerva Fabienne Hase & Nikita Volodin, and several other notable top teams — the pairs discipline is where we hope to see the most improvement going into next year. There are many teams with potential, but few making big strides. We hope to see bigger and better — and just more — from them next season. All in all, its been a great ride this year — and we cannot wait to see what you all have in store for us this fall!

I feel like culture today fixates on the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Its the thing that makes a headline a headline. Something tragic. Or something feel-good. Rarely, are we given the whole of it. It's polarizing, really, when you don't see the whole picture. It's a trap that grabs attention and brands our thoughts with a narrative; good or bad.  I would even hazard to say it's not much different from the versions of Jesus the world proclaims. Over the last few months I keep considering the picture of the Lion and the Lamb. Scripture is full of references to both. Jesus, of course, is both. His nature is complex, intricate, and deeper than human minds can comprehend. This is what got me thinking about the days of Jesus. Despite being depicted in countless movies and cartoons and shows.. we forget: He was an actual person in history with real stories and encounters. These are canonized forever in what we now call the Bible.  But here's the thing; the Jesus that people knew and experienced in Bible times is different than how we perceive Him today. And to be fair, those people really only had half of the story. The Jesus we so often hear about today is the gentle lamb. He is mercy and peace and grace and love. All of this is true… But this is NOT what the people of Jesus' time were expecting. It's actually fascinating to me because the people of Jesus' time were actually expecting Him to come as a conqueror. A reigning king. A roaring Lion.  At the time, there was only (what we know as) the Old Testament. In fact, the life and death of Jesus ushers in what we now call the New Testament! It was even prophesied in Jeremiah 31:31 .And this prophecy was fulfilled with the death and resurrection of Jesus. The New Testament makes it clear in Matthew 26:28. When you think of it in this way, about how the culture of that day was familiar with the prophecies it makes sense. It makes sense that they missed it. They were expecting the Lion of the tribe of Judah. Genesis 49:10 prophecied.  Right from the start, we get a picture of The Messiah who comes to reign! Later on we see in 2 Samuel 7:12-13. I feel like today's culture has it totally flip flopped. Today's culture (and I hate to say it but sometimes even the Church) prefers to talk about the Lamb version of Christ. It's true. It's part of his character and nature. But guys, there's a whole other piece. It's the part the Jews were looking for thousands of years ago. And indeed, when Jesus returns, it will be as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. He will come with eyes of fire and feet of bronze. He will come with a double edge sword meant to CORRECT us as well as bless us. The fact is, Jesus the Messiah will return for His bride. He will return to cleanse the earth and make it new. He will return to reign. He won't be returning to affirm how we feel about truth and morality. Those things have already been defined. He will be returning to establish His kingdom in the manner God always intended. It will be restored, redeemed, and made perfect.  Jesus is coming back as the Lion. He already came as the Lamb. His life and death met every promise and will meet the ones left unfulfilled upon His return.  Don't make the mistake of thinking He loves us and tolerates all that we feel like doing. Sin separates us from God. And Jesus will return to destroy that which separates us from our Father. Don't live in fear of this but instead, understand we serve a God who loves us enough to correct and rebuke. One who loves us enough to convict and purify the things in us that keep us from deeper intimacy. Let's not be like the people of Biblical times who Missed it. Let's see God for who He is in the whole picture. Lion and Lamb. Sacrifice and Savior. Servant King who laid it down for us to return again, and restore what Satan stole. Rejoice as we continue ahead, knowing the battle is won, and we have only to be ready for His return..

How old is too old to run the country? Donald Trump will turn 78 in June. The incumbent Joseph Biden will turn 82 shortly after the November election. Biden is already the oldest president in U.S. history, succeeding Trump who had been the oldest (70) at inauguration in 2017. Rarely have age and mental fitness been such prominent issues in a presidential campaign. But past candidates for the White House successfully dealt with questions about their health and wits. Dwight Eisenhower, then in his mid-60s, suffered a major heart attack the year before he won re-election in 1956. Ronald Reagan faced questions about his age as early as the mid-1970s. Getting old can be either an asset or liability depending on the candidate, as can youth. JFK, Clinton, and Obama all parried accusations they lacked the experience to handle the job. In this episode, presidential historian Lindsay Chervinsky tells us which politicians handled the age question the best -- and how they did it.

On today's episode, we dive into the reasons you should find numerous products to test as well as some strategies for doing exactly that.     Here are 10 Reasons you should build a strong foundation as quickly as possible 1. Hard to find averages when going ASIN by ASIN Book of biz leads to Averages leads to predictability. Increasing profits and decreasing expenses is much more impactful on a book of business than on a few ASINs. 2. Diversity A solid foundation allows for branching out while maintaining revenues. There are so many different categories and subs that we will never run out of new areas to source in. 3. IPI Score A foundational book of business helps you understand the metrics that make up the IPI Score Helps keep level inventory numbers. 4. Anything can happen to any ASIN When you have only a few ASINs, anything that happens to any ASIN can really hurt. When there are more ASINs, the overall impact is smaller. 5  Keeps risk low Spreading your risk over many different listings can make the risk of losing all much lower and the chances of profiting overall much higher. 6. Easier to outsource Putting together a foundational book of business makes it much easier to compile standard operating procedures and best practices. When you outsource, it is much easier to hand that off. 7.  Economies of Scale AKA Critical Mass   Helps with inbound transportation, purchasing supplies, paying contractors, justifying expenses and subscriptions 8.  Account Health Rating New sellers all start with a score of 200 and anything less than 200 is Any policy adherence issues deduct points from your score. Increase score by 4 points for every 200 successful sales in a rolling 180-day period. Riskiest time is when trying to build that first 200 sales so get it done as quickly as possible. 9.  Lifting of restrictions How many stories have we heard about sellers who had things ungated and they didn't even know? They were just open one day. This is what happens when you focus on working with what you have available to you. 10. Make more money! Isn't this why we're all here? Let's make some car payments, some house payments Let's bring moms and dads home!

God that spoke to Moses is "Yahweh," unfolding everything around him. But, the question was: will reality unfold what this voice spoke to him? What if things go wrong? What if Moses was deluded, or mistaken, or deceived?How Moses, and people who hear God speak to them, find out whether what they hear is true--whether God really is speaking with them--is actually a step-by-step process. Rarely do we make some heroic leap of faith, at least at the start. We embark on that journey, one step at a time. And sometimes, the first step can be very, very small.But, the question that reality confronts us with--question that God asks--is "What will it take for you to take that step?

All in a Homeschool Day | Charlotte Mason homeschooling | discipleship | intentional parenting

Do you remember when your children were young and how what they wanted to be when they grew up changed every few months? They were exploring their world and discovering new interests. Somewhere along the way, we started to believe that we had to choose one career path and stick to it. But let's be real for a minute. If you went to college, how many of you graduated from college with the major you started with? More recently, how often have you changed your homeschool curriculum because something just wasn't working? Rarely do we know exactly what we want and take a straight path to get there! Changing what we use for the sake of our children seems okay, but it's not okay for us to change our minds.I commented recently to a friend that it feels like I am a toddler exploring the world again or a college student trying to decide what her major should be. It's scary, confusing, and makes me a little dizzy! But it's okay. It's a part of the process of discerning where God is calling me to serve next. In this episode, I am sharing my journey of re-discovery of who I am and what I want to be when I grow up, umm, I mean when I finish my current calling of being a homeschool mom. Along the way, I'll share three important truths I learned.

America's Mayor Rudy Giuliani says Judge McAfee is trying to play both sides against the middle. In allowing Fani Willis to stay on the case, he left several issues unresolved. Willis admitted she took money from her campaign and Giuliani says that's a crime in the state of Georgia. We're going to trial against the former President of the United States with a DA who has an unresolved, serious felony. She also committed perjury approximately five times in her testimony which would have put most people in prison. Giuliani wants to know how we ended up with the three worst prosecutors in America? And every one of them is a Democrat, not even a single Independent. Judge McAfee knows this is an important case of international importance. Having once worked for Willis, he and his wife also donated to her campaign. You should recuse yourself if you're an honest judge. Fulton Co. Georgia is like New York, Chicago and Philadelphia, all run by the crooked Democrat machine. Giuliani became puzzled and disappointed in Bill Barr when he had Hunter Biden's laptop and didn't realize the imperative to examine it fully. Rarely does a prosecutor get a piece of evidence like this. It was the main focal point of the bag man, explaining why and what he's been doing for the corrupt family business. It was self incriminating and Giuliani has never seen a more damaging piece of evidence in his career as a lawyer. You have to realize it implicates a possible future President of the United States of America. Barr could have investigated before Joe was even nominated. Instead, he watched Joe lie on television calling it Russian disinformation. You have to come forward if you're the Attorney General. It wasn't just lying, it involved our national security. These bribes were coming from our biggest enemy, China. Giuliani says there was no explanation for Barr other than something corrupt was going on. They had something on him because he changed. He went from being a boy scout to a cover-up artist.GUEST: RUDY GIULIANI, AMERICA'S MAYORSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A mystery dog illness that spread across the U.S. last year and can lead to serious or fatal respiratory problems is still under investigation, but cases are starting to slow, experts say. The illness, which started to spread more widely in the summer and fall of 2023, causes coughing, sneezing and fatigue, among other symptoms, and can progress quickly to pneumonia. The dogs suspected to have it test negative for all of the typical causes of respiratory symptoms and often don't respond to treatment. In a statement to TODAY.com, the American Veterinary Medical Association says that based on "conversations with various sources ... the number of cases are declining," adding that an "ebb and flow" of respiratory illness in dogs over the course of the year is common, similar to cold and flu season in humans. The statement also explains that the U.S. Department of Agriculture has so far not seen that the rise in respiratory illness in dogs is linked to a new virus or bacteria. A statement from the Animal and Plant Inspection Service, part of the USDA, confirms to TODAY.com that the state-led testing that the agency is helping coordinate "has not indicated the presence of a novel pathogen or single infectious cause among these cases." Numerous veterinary diagnostic labs across the country are investigating the outbreak, from Oregon to Kansas to New Hampshire. The APHIS spokesperson adds that the illness is not regulated by APHIS and therefore the branch doesn't have data on case numbers. The Oregon Veterinary Medical Association also shared in an Feb. 14, 2024, update that "cases seem to be waning, if not back to normal," citing veterinarian Dr. Scott Weese's Worms and Germs blog. At last count, at least 19 states had reported cases of the illness, according to various expert groups. The AVMA explained in an earlier statement that the mystery dog illness is difficult to track because there's no national surveillance system. In November 2023, veterinarians in critical care settings told TODAY.com that they'd seen dozens of cases since the fall. Late last year, multiple groups — including the Colorado and Oregon departments of agriculture, the AVMA, the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health — issued warnings about the mystery illness in dogs. “We don't know what is causing this situation, where dogs are presenting at veterinarians with what private veterinarians would call kennel cough,” Rhode Island's state veterinarian Dr. Scott Marshall told NBC affiliate WJAR. “What's different about this situation is that dogs are presenting with little bit more severe signs, not responding to usual treatments, and unfortunately had a small number, still a number, of dogs that have succumbed to them.” “It seems to happen very, very quickly — to go from this cough that's just won't go away ... and then all of a sudden they develop this pneumonia,” Dr. Lindsey Ganzer, veterinarian and CEO at North Springs Veterinary Referral Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, told TODAY.com. She said she treated over a dozen dogs with what she believes is the condition between October and November 2023. If your dog develops a cough, do not panic, the AVMA advises. But stay vigilant about its progression and your pet's overall health, and contact your vet right away if anything seems off. What is the mystery dog illness? Dogs with this mystery illness usually have coughing, sneezing, eye or nose discharge, are abnormally tired, and do not test positive for any common causes of canine respiratory illness, the Oregon Department of Agriculture noted in a Nov. 9 press release. Typically, dogs with respiratory illnesses have a cough for seven to 10 days, but some vets saw an uptick in dogs with coughs lasting weeks to months that don't respond to treatment, the Colorado Department of Agriculture said in a Nov. 22 statement. One of the distinguishing characteristics of this mystery illness outbreak was the high number of dogs who developed pneumonia. One Colorado vet, Dr. Michael Lappin, director of the Center for Companion Animal Studies at the Colorado State University School of Veterinary Medicine, told NBC News the number of canine pneumonia cases in the state rose by 50% between September and November 2023 compared to 2022. Marshall estimated that Rhode Island saw at least 35 cases of the mystery respiratory illness, but it's hard to know exactly how many because not all cases are reported. Dogs are most likely to contract it by being in close contact with numerous other dogs — so places like doggy day care, dog parks, groomers or boarding kennels, Ganzer said. The illness seems to affect dogs regardless of age, size or breed, though dogs with snort snouts, like bulldogs and pugs, may be at higher risk. Between mid-August and mid-November, the Oregon Department of Agriculture received reports of over 200 cases of the illness from veterinarians in the state but has had no additional cases to report since. A Dec. 1 statement from the Washington Department of Agriculture said the state has received 16 reports of unusual canine respiratory disease. Two cases were confirmed as such. The Colorado Department of Agriculture also shared in November that veterinarians in the state were seeing "double the number of cases than what is typically seen during a canine infectious respiratory disease outbreak."   The Wisconsin State Journal reported that between late October and December, clinics around the state saw six to 12 cases each, according to Dr. Keith Poulsen, director of the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at University of Wisconin-Madison. Dr. Amanda Cavanagh, head of urgent care services at Colorado State University James L. Voss Veterinary Teaching Hospital, in Fort Collins, Colorado, told TODAY.com that this past summer she started seeing cases of dogs with coughs lasting several weeks or longer, and the trend continued into the fall. She estimated her caseload of coughing dogs doubled from October to November. While dogs with a contagious cough are common in veterinary settings, Cavanagh noted that she normally sees cases decrease in the fall as temperatures drop and fewer dogs are gathering at parks. "But this year, the spike has stayed high," she explains. In its original press release, the Oregon Department of Agriculture noted that the illness can progress in three ways: Mild to moderate cough for six to eight weeks or longer that either doesn't respond to antibiotics or only responds a little Chronic pneumonia that doesn't respond to antibiotics Severe pneumonia that "often leads to poor outcomes in as little as 24 to 36 hours" Cavanagh witnessed all three scenarios play out at her hospital. Last fall, she said she saw more dogs than usual with a long-lasting upper respiratory infection who then developed pneumonia from a secondary bacterial infection. Of the dogs she treated, she said most who developed pneumonia responded to antibiotics, and many with the long-lasting cough recovered with time and never got pneumonia. But of those who developed the severe pneumonia, some died or had to be euthanized. "That really bad pneumonia, historically, is very, very rare. Maybe I would see one case a year," but last fall alone, Cavanagh saw a "handful," she said. How many dogs have died from the mystery illness? Because most states are not tracking case numbers, it's not known exactly how many dogs have died from the illness. The Oregon Department of Agriculture tells TODAY.com that it does not know how many dogs have died from the illness in the state. However, it is confirmed that some dogs in the U.S. have died from the mystery illness. The Colorado Department of Agriculture said in a statement that "in rare cases, the canine patients progress quickly from pneumonia to death." Colorado State University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biological Sciences also said the illness has resulted in "some fatalities." Ganzer and Cavanagh both have had several canine patients die from what they believe to be the condition. Rhode Island Veterinary Medical Association President Shelly Pancoast told WJAR that she's seen five to 10 dogs die from the mystery illness. “We still don't have a great handle on how exactly we should be treating these dogs,” Pancoast said. “A vast majority of them are making full recovery, it's just unlike anything we've seen in previous years with kennel cough." What states have the mystery dog illness? According to various expert groups, cases that match the description of the mystery dog illness have been reported, officially or anecdotally, in: Colorado California Florida Georgia Idaho Illinois Indiana Maine Maryland Massachusetts New Hampshire Nevada Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Tennessee Vermont Washington Wisconsin This above list of states comes from the AVMA, the Tennessee Veterinary Medical Association, the Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine and the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at University of Wisconsin-Madison. Mystery dog illness 2023 symptoms Symptoms of the mystery dog illness include: Coughing that doesn't get better on its own after a week or so Sneezing Nasal or eye discharge Red eyes Lethargy Trouble breathing, especially from the stomach Blue or purple gums (due to not getting enough oxygen) Related: What does coughing in a dog sound like? Vet explains in viral video Signs of coughing in dogs For many dog owners, the signs of coughing can be difficult to recognize, Dr. Michele Forbes, Dr. Michele Forbes, owner of Compassionate Care Hospital in Ann Arbor, Michigan, says. "Rarely do (dog owners) identify a cough until it becomes an overt problem and it's clearly coming from the chest,” Forbes explained in a now-viral TikTok. As a result of owners not noticing coughing or confusing it for something else, like throat-clearing or gagging, some dogs are arriving at vet facilities in more advanced stages of the condition, which can make it more difficult to treat, Forbes told TODAY.com. Some tips to help identify signs of coughing in dogs: The sound dogs make when they're choking can be confused for coughing. Some dogs sound like they're honking, kind of like a goose. Coughing can also sound like the dog is gagging or clearing its throat. The chest may heave or the abdomen may move while the dog is coughing. For some dogs, it looks like they're trying to cough up a hair ball and they may produce some liquid. A wet cough may produce a gargling sound. If a dog is coughing a lot, they may end up vomiting, which dog owners often confuse for a gastrointestinal issue. Reverse-sneezing can be confused for coughing but it's not usually a reason to call the vet unless it's paired with actual coughing, nasal discharge or any other concerning symptoms. When to see the vet for the mystery dog illness Other signs that your dog should see the vet, per the AVMA, include: Lingering cough Weakness Loss of appetite Difficulty breathing Worsening of illness Cough that is sufficiently severe that it causes the dog to vomit or makes it hard for the animal to breathe Tips to prevent mystery dog illness from vets Dogs are most likely to contract the illness when in close contact with other dogs, so previous guidance was to keep dogs away from other dogs. But case rates have essentially returned to normal, Weese noted in his blog. To keep your dog safe and healthy overall, the AVMA recommends keeping up to date with vaccinations. "While the existing vaccines may not specifically target this unknown infection, maintaining overall health through routine vaccinations can help support a dog's immune system in combating various infections," it said. The AVMA stressed the following vaccines: Bordetella, Adenovirus type 2, and parainfluenza combined with the injectable influenza H3N2 vaccine. Be sure to give your dog two weeks after vaccination before interacting with other dogs so they can build up immunity. If your dog is sick, consult a vet as soon as possible, as early testing can help with treatment, and keep the dog away from other dogs to avoid spreading the illness, experts advise. While it's unlikely a humans can get sick with the respiratory illness, because the cause is still unknown, the AVMA suggests thoroughly washing hands after handling any dogs. Caroline Kee contributed reporting.

What is Your Biggest Challenge? – PTC 483

OVERCOMING YOUR CHALLENGE What is your biggest challenge? I asked that recently to podcasters on my email list. On this episode, I'll help you through a few of them. DO THE WORK Whatever your challenge, do the little work daily to build your foundation. Country artist Chris Young is a great example. The first time Chris Young came to town was around 2009. He played in the radio station conference room to about 20 people. This was shortly after he was the winner of the 4th season of the TV show "Nashville Star" in 2006. The next time here in town, he played to a small club with a few other artists for a few hundred people. Over the next few years, Chris returned to town as the opening act for a variety of other artists. Each time he played to a few more people than the last. Finally in 2019, Chris came to town to headline his own show for about 5,000 people. He has done that a few other times since then. Here is a guy that got great exposure on a television singing competition with a big audience. He has put in the consistent and methodical work over time to get where he is today. Other artists on the singing shows don't make it, because they haven't put in the work to create the relationship over time. Just look at the winners of American Idol, like Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Taylor Hicks and Jordin Sparks. They didn't put in the work. Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson have been working for years to get where they are today even after their American Idol start. You can't create a relationship in 20 weeks of a tv season. It takes years. Do the work. Get rich slowly. Whatever your challenge, give it time. Let's look at a few of these questions. THE DOWNLOADS CHALLENGE I'm trying all the things to increase downloads. I send out a weekly email and post on social media. I also mention my podcast when it's applicable on music teacher Facebook groups. I've been a guest on a few podcasts. I guess my biggest challenge is not knowing what else I can do to grow downloads. They are increasing but very slowly. Maybe that's normal? Thanks, - Jeanette Yes, Jeanette, that is normal. I know we don't like to hear that it takes time. But, it takes time. Rarely will you see your downloads grow at a huge rate unless you get in front of a large pool of your ideal clients. Greg Payne is one of my clients. He hosts the Cool Grandpa podcast. As he was growing his podcast, he was able to get mentioned in an article in the New York Times. Who reads the New York Times? Typically a lot of people who are grandparents. Greg doubled his downloads overnight. Getting into the New York Times isn't something we can do everyday. However, you can find other influencers who speak to your ideal clients. Those influencers make great partners. To find the influencers who have the attention of your ideal target listener, begin by defining your listener. You can do that quickly and easily by downloading my Ideal Target Listener Worksheet here: www.podcasttalentcoach.com/listener. Keep working both sides of the growth equation. First, keep your current listeners coming back. Your email and social media tactics will help remind your fans to listen. Then, find those new ideal clients and invite them into your world. Get them on your email list, so you can email them as well. The podcast interviews you are doing should help. Let's find other areas to ramp it up. Above all else, create great content, share yourself, and be consistent. THE GUEST CHALLENGE My biggest challenge is getting the guests to share the episode. - Kate This is another common challenge, Kate. We can't expect our guest to share, but it is always great when they do. There are two things you can do. First, select better guests. Next, make it incredibly easy for them. Let's talk about better guests. Dave Jackson at the School of Podcasting is a great guest. When he is interviewed on a podcast, he will play a clip of that interview on his own show. Dave will give a shout out to the host of the show. He will also tell people where to find it. He is a great guest. If you want guests to share your episode, find guests that share episodes. If you see someone mentioning they were interviewed on a podcast, get those people as guests. They know how to share. When you book your guests, let them know up front before the interview that you would appreciate if they would share the assets you send them. Make the expectations clear from the start. MAKE IT EASY Next, make it easy for your guest to share. I was on a call with a client this week. She was telling me her guests weren't sharing the episodes as much as she would like. She told me that when the episode is published, her team sends the guest a link to a folder containing all the graphics and assets along with a link to the show. They then ask the guest to share. The guest has to do too much work in this scenario. As a guest, I need to sift through the graphics, write an email, craft a social post, determine which asset to post, and link to the episode. To make it easier for the guest, write the email for them. Craft the social post for them. Make is as easy as possible with as few steps as possible. Tag your guest in your social posts and ask them to repost it. You are much more likely to get your guest to share if you make it super easy. But at the end of the day, not every guest will share. These steps should help you get a few more to spread the word. THE COURAGE CHALLENGE My biggest barrier is lack of courage to put myself out there. - Leah Impostor Syndrome is real, Leah. We all struggle with it a bit. Regardless of what we are doing, we want people to like us. It's natural. When we understand that there will always be someone who doesn't like what we do, it makes it much easier to do it anyway. We were discussing this the other day with my coach. He was talking about the importance of celebrating our wins. When we review and celebrate our wins, it puts our minds in the right space to do what needs to be done. Franklin D. Roosevelt said, "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the assessment that something else is more important than fear." Nelson Mandela said, "I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it." Having the courage to do anything is recognizing the fear is there and then taking action anyway. I find it most helpful to have a written list of successes and feedback from others. Many people have sent me great reviews and testimonials. But like many people, one negative comment can derail everything. That list of positive feedback can help me get and stay in the right frame of mind regardless of what others say. People want what you have, Leah. Take action in spite of the fear. BUILDING A COMMUNITY Learning to build an interactive community around the podcast is my biggest challenge. - Dot Community comes from relationships. Are you sharing yourself on the podcast to build those friendships? Make real connections. When you share yourself, you will find other will tend to share themselves with you. Over time, you community will grow. Next, give listeners a reason to engage along with a benefit of engagement. What's in it for them? Finally, make it easy for them to engage. Tell them exactly what you want your listener to do. On a recent coaching call, my client told me their podcast was not generating any feedback or response. I listened to the podcast to review it. When I got to the end, the host said, "You can email me at the email address, and follow me on social media." Why would I email you? Remember the last time you ran into an old friend? You caught up and had a good chat. When it ended, one of you said, "I'll give you a call sometime." Has "sometime" ever come? I doubt it. You have no reason to call, so the call never happens. We all tell ourselves we need to do a better job staying in touch with our friends. Then we realize a year has passed since we last talked. If you want your listeners to engage, give them a real reason to engage. I have a free resource that will help you. It is called "75 Ways To Drive Engagement With Your Podcast". You can download it for free at http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/engage. THE STRATEGY CHALLENGE I'd love to have a strategy in place before I launch, then I know what I'm aiming for! - Ruth Don't let perfection prevent you from starting. If you wait for all the lights to turn green before you step on the gas, you'll never move. On the other hand, having a strategy is wise decision. Start with the end in mind. What do you hope to accomplish with your podcast? Be specific. Let's say you want to grow your coaching business with the podcast. How do people become clients? That might be your discovery call. How do people get to the discovery call? That could be through your lead magnet. Maybe you're a life coach and your free resource is "6 Steps to a Successful Life". When people download your lead magnet, they discover the six steps. You then invite them on a call to see how to implement the six steps. Next, we need to determine how people get your lead magnet. We promote the lead magnet on the podcast. But, we must also create content that drives demand for the lead magnet. Create great content that shows your listeners what is possible when they take the six steps. You might interview people who have done it. You could take a deep dive into one of the steps. The content should demonstrate why people need to take the six steps. Get listeners to envision the transformation. Finally, you need to block out time on your calendar each week to record the show. Treat that block of time with respect. Be consistent. Now you have a strategy. So, let's get started. You can refine the strategy as you go along. But you can't refine anything until you start. THE PODCAST NAME How do you choose a podcast name? How can you verify that that name is not already in use? Is it necessary to trademark your podcast name? Sincerely, - Gordon This is a really gray area, Gordon. Let's take each part separately. The purpose of the podcast name is to get people to think the show looks interesting and might be for them. The Gordon Show doesn't tell me anything about the content or make me think the show might be for me. It would take a lot of marketing and explanation to get that across. You also don't want to be too cool for the room with a show nobody understands. Shows like More Perfect and The Drive really tell us nothing. More Perfect is an NPR podcast about stories from the Supreme Court of the United States. Could you have guessed that? The Drive is about maximizing longevity, including physical, cognitive and emotional health. I was thinking football. On the other hand, it is pretty clear what Your Money Briefing and Secrets of Wealthy Women are all about. The name of your show should make people think the show is for them. ALREADY IN USE Is your name already in use? Google is the easiest way to determine that. There are many podcasts that use the same name. I searched for the Money Magic podcast. Here is the list I found. The Money Magic Podcast with Vangile Makwakwa Money Magic with Patrick von Finanzzauber The Money Magic Podcast with Brady Wade The Magic, Money and Marketing Podcast with Jennifer Donovan Practical Money Magic with Audrey Heesch Magic Internet Money with Brad Mills Mindset, Money, & Magic with Nadeen Martinez Money & Magic with the Witchy Bookkeeper Love Money Magic with Christy Teloh Those are just 9 that are close. There are a ton of other varieties. When choosing a name, be unique to help you get discovered in search. See if your show name is available for purchase as a website URL. That's a good place to start. TRADEMARK WITH FIREMARK Finally, is it necessary to trademark your podcast name? No, it's not necessary. Yes, it is beneficial. A trademark can help you protect your intellectual property. It can also save you from someone else suing you for using their intellectual property if they were to obtain the trademark. There are plenty of benefits to getting the trademark. But it isn't required. Keep in mind that having a trademark and defending a trademark are two different things. Once you have the trademark, you must prevent others from using it. That may sometimes include legal fees. If you don't defend the trademark consistently, it can be difficult to defend if the time comes. That's why many big businesses go after little guys infringing on a trademark. You need to defend it against every use or put an agreement in place that allows for the use by others. I am no legal expert. Consult an attorney before making any decisions. If you want solid podcast legal advice, see my buddy Gordon Firemark. He is the Podcast Lawyer™. You can find Gordon at http://www.gordonfiremark.com. Tell him I sent you over.

Jesus Passes the Test for Us

Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. — Matthew 4:1 Since the beginning, human beings have failed God's test. In Eden, Satan asked, “Did God say . . . ?” and then misquoted God's words. Adam and Eve responded by questioning the word of God and then doing what seemed right in their own eyes. So do we. Jesus, the Son of God, came to live among us as a human being. And, in his case, the Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness to be tempted. There Satan made some suggestions that sounded rather reasonable—“have something to eat; show your power; fall into the arms of God.” Jesus responded to each temptation with a quote from the Scriptures. Rather than twisting God's words, he said, in effect, “No, I live by the Word of God.” This is still our challenge as well. Will we live by God's Word, or will we do what seems right in our own eyes? Like Adam and Eve, we are experts at twisting God's words to suit our own purposes. We lie, we lust, we get angry, we are greedy, we gossip—and so on. Rarely does a day pass in which we don't yield to some temptation. We need to rely on the only one who passed the test. Jesus was “tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin” (Hebrews 4:15). What's more, Jesus also laid down his life to pay the price for our sin—so that we can live forever with God. What a Savior! Father, forgive us, for Jesus' sake, when we fail to live your way when we are tempted. Lord Jesus, thank you for living faithfully and giving your life for our sake. Amen.

In this episode, the complex relationship between social media and mental well-being is explored. While social media offers benefits like reconnection and access to information, it also comes with challenges. The positive impacts include enhanced social connections, access to resources, a platform for self-expression, and community building. However, there are negative aspects such as comparison and self-esteem issues, cyberbullying and online harassment, information overload and misinformation, digital addiction and screen time, and privacy and data security concerns. It is important to be aware of the pros and cons of social media, set boundaries, and fill our feeds with uplifting and positive accounts. Additionally, being mindful of mindless scrolling and its impact on other areas of life like exercise, family interaction, and sleep is crucial. .....................................................................................

If you can relate to any of this, then this episode is for you. I'm Lisa, and this is rising strong mental health and resilience, where we focus on awareness, hope, tools and resiliency. We now drop two episodes every week, including a powerful interview with mental health experts or inspiring guests and a quickie deep dive episode. Thanks for following and listening. Now let's dive into the pros and cons of social media on our mental health. In today's digital age, social media has become an integral part of our daily lives. It shapes how we connect, communicate and consume information. While social media offers numerous benefits, it also comes with its fair share of challenges, especially when it comes to our mental health. In this episode, we'll explore the complex relationships between social media and mental well being, examining both the positive and negative impacts it can have on us. So what are the benefits? I think it's safe to say that social media has reconnected us on some levels. It's enhanced our social connections. Social media facilitates connections with friends, families, communities and all around the world. I bet you anyone who's listening right now knows of someone that they've reconnected with. Maybe it was someone you went to school with years ago, or maybe it's a cousin. These connections can help us maintain relationships, share experiences, and receive support and encouragement at any hour of the day, regardless of location, even if it's the middle of the night. There's usually somebody online somewhere. I just want to quickly share a story about my own experience with social media and social connections. Now, most of you know by now that in 2015, we lost our daughter Katie in a car accident. And while grief is not an uncommon thing, it's certainly not something that everyone feels comfortable talking about. So I did find a fair amount of support online in specific groups that were made for grief and in my case, grieving mothers. So it was very helpful until it became unhelpful, and I'm going to talk about that in a few minutes. Another benefit of social media is the access it gives us to information and resources. Social media can provide access to a wealth of information, educational content, and on so many topics, including mental health, wellness, self care, for example. If you're looking how to meditate or journal, you will find helpful resources and groups to help you do that same thing with fitness and yoga. If you're learning how to run a ten k or you're learning how to do yoga. You can find all of that online. Another benefit is that social media is a platform for expression and creativity. Social media platforms serve as creative outlets for self expression, allowing individuals to share their talents, passions and perspectives through photos and videos and writing and art. The creative dog and cat videos are my personal favorite, but I've also followed accounts that have helped me learn how to paint on glasses and paint canvases. Use the search bar in your favorite social media platform to help you find creative activities that you're interested in. And another benefit is community building and advocacy. It's kind of like what we're doing right here. But social media can help us foster communities, can raise awareness and mobilize support for social causes, activism and advocacy. So these are all benefits. And as I said, we're going to talk about some of the negative aspects of social media as well. The first thing that I want to mention, unfortunately, I think affects our teens and our young adults perhaps more than any other group, although I have been impacted by it myself, and that is comparison and self esteem issues. The impact of social media on self esteem and mental well being, including the tendency for users to engage in upward social comparison and experiencing feelings of inadequacy or envy, is very common. As I said, I find myself falling into this as well, thinking, oh, look at that couple out on another date night or look at their fancy holiday. I think we all compare everyone's highlights to our own low points. And don't get me started on all those filters on the photos. How many times have you met someone in real life and thought to yourself, oh, you don't look anything like your profile picture? Rarely do we see untouched photos on social media anymore. Be aware of that one. Another negative aspect, and this one drives me crazy. Cyberbullying and online harassment unfortunately, the prevalence of cyberbullying, harassment and online abuse on social media is getting worse, which has serious consequences for the victim's mental health, leading to increased stress, anxiety and depression. Now, remember earlier when I said that social media was good for me at the earlier stages of my grief? And it was good until it wasn't? Well, my story ends in a bullying story. As you can imagine, everyone grieves differently, as they should. We're all unique snowflakes. But there was one time when I was expressing the fact. Well, there was more than one time. There were a few times that I was expressing the fact that I truly, truly believed that we can carry joy and grief and pain at the same time, and that I chose to look for joy in my life and that I believed that living with joy as much as I can honors my daughter in heaven. And that's my opinion. I don't necessarily think that everyone has to think that way, but I wrote it somewhere in a grief Facebook group and I actually was bullied for that and to the point where I actually thought that my opinions were wrong and that I was doing my grief wrong and it was horrible. So that is one thing to be careful of is the bullying. Another negative aspect is information overload and misinformation. Now I think we really saw a lot of this during COVID but this can include the spread of false or misleading content related to health, politics, current events which can contribute to confusion and anxiety. And I think we've all seen in recent years how this confusion and misinformation can break relationships down and act as a huge divider in our society. Yet another negative aspect is digital addiction and screen time. More and more we are seeing digital addiction and excessive screen time associated with social media use, including the potential for compulsive behaviors, decreased productivity, and disrupted sleep patterns, all which can negatively impact mental and emotional well being. Parents, this is tough territory to negotiate with your kids, but it is a worthwhile conversation if you can. It's best for all of us to charge our devices outside the bedroom. And last but not least, I'm not going to dive into it too much, but I think we can all agree that a negative aspect of social media is privacy and data security concerns. So in summary, there are pros and cons of social media in regard to mental health. So awareness is key. Setting boundaries with ourselves is important. Before following someone or responding, check in with yourself. Is this someone who is helping me feel better or is it someone who's hindering my mental well being? Delete the accounts that make you feel worse or annoy you. Aim to fill your feed with uplifting and positive accounts. I did a little housekeeping activity myself and deleted a lot of accounts that just weren't aligned. It felt really good actually. Set timers and be cognizant of mindless scrolling. And what it's keeping you from is the mindless scrolling. Keeping you from exercising, interacting with your family, getting to bed at a reasonable time. Just be aware and make good decisions.

In this conversation, we explore three practices that will help you thrive in the toughest negotiations. And no surprise — the biggest obstacle in getting what we want is almost always ourselves. Key Points We need more conflict, not less. The best decisions often emerge from a negotiation. The biggest obstacle in negotiation is ourselves. Pauses and silence prevent us from reacting without thinking. Zoom in to examine the interests that are behind your stated positions. This often elicits meaningful steps. Rarely are conflicts about surface issues. Uncovering your deeper motivations will help you approach negotiation more productively. Negotiation doesn't only happen at one table. Zoom out to at least two other tables: the internal negotiations of both sides.
