Starting this weekend the Milwaukee County Transit System will shorten some routes at the edges of its ridership area. Riders will also need to wait longer for their buses at some stops. That's because the Milwaukee County Transit System reduced service to some routes to help deal with a 14 million dollar budget deficit. You may remember that bus fares went up by 75 cents at the beginning of this year. To learn more about these most recent changes, WUWM education reporter Katherine Kokal is joined by Jesus Ochoa, the system's Director of Service Development.

Lawmakers are failing those who need the most help, according to advocates and people in recovery who gathered at the Statehouse Thursday. Lawmakers gave a final vote to a bill that will slightly change the state's alert system for when a child goes missing. Cell phones in the classroom have been a problem for years. Developers behind a proposed 130-acre data center on the southwest side of Marion County secured preliminary approval Thursday. Indiana voters will still have the same number of early voting days after a bill that would have reduced days failed to receive a necessary vote. Governor Mike Braun quickly signed legislation this afternoon to bring the Chicago Bears to Indiana shortly after the Indiana Senate gave its final approval 45 to 4.

Two words in a Los Angeles courtroom today. Not guilty. Entered by Nick Reiner's public defender as he sat slumped behind glass, charged with stabbing both of his parents to death.Rob Reiner. Michele Singer Reiner. Found in their bedroom with multiple stab wounds on the first night of Hanukkah. Their 32-year-old son arrested the same day, now facing two counts of first-degree murder with special circumstances.Today's plea triggered the expected outrage. But here's what most people don't understand: that plea wasn't a defense. It was a door. The real strategy hasn't been revealed yet.California's system requires defendants pursuing insanity defenses to enter dual pleas, triggering bifurcated trials where guilt and sanity are determined separately. Today was procedural. The psychiatric evaluations are ongoing. The defense is still deciding which path to take.Three options remain open. Full insanity under M'Naghten—proving Nick didn't know what he was doing or that it was wrong. Diminished actuality—using his documented schizoaffective disorder to challenge the premeditation required for first-degree murder. Or incompetence to stand trial—arguing he can't participate in his own defense right now.Legal experts are skeptical about full insanity. Nick was at a Christmas party hours before the killings, arguing with his father in front of witnesses. If you can argue, you're not legally insane.The more likely play? Reduced charges. Second-degree murder. Manslaughter. A different name for what happened, and different consequences.April 29th. Preliminary hearing.

In this episode of Develop This!, host Dennis Fraise sits down with Ron Kresha, Chief Financial Officer and founding member of Golden Shovel Agency, to explore the powerful — and often overlooked — role of community airports in economic development. Drawing from his professional expertise and personal passion for aviation, Ron makes a compelling case for why community airports must be viewed not as line-item expenses, but as anchor institutions that drive investment, healthcare access, business recruitment, and long-term growth. From general aviation to essential air service, airport marketing to emerging aviation technology, this episode delivers actionable insights for community and economic development leaders ready to elevate their local airport strategy. 1. Community Airports: Expense or Economic Engine? Ron challenges the common misconception that airports are financial drains. Instead, he reframes them as infrastructure investments that produce measurable ROI through: Business attraction and retention Corporate aviation access Site selection competitiveness Tourism and regional connectivity 2. The Critical Role of General Aviation While commercial flights often dominate the conversation, general aviation is a major contributor to local economies. Corporate aircraft, medical flights, flight training, agricultural aviation, and logistics operations all rely on well-maintained community airports. For many communities, general aviation is the real driver of economic activity. 3. Essential Air Service & Small Community Survival Ron highlights the importance of Essential Air Service (EAS) for rural and smaller communities. Reliable air connectivity supports: Healthcare access Executive travel Talent recruitment Emergency response 4. Airport Marketing & Community Engagement One of the strongest themes of the episode is airport awareness. Many residents — and even local leaders — don't fully understand what their airport contributes. Ron emphasizes proactive airport marketing, storytelling, and community engagement to bridge the knowledge gap. Airports must: Share economic impact data Highlight business users Showcase medical and emergency benefits Build pride and awareness locally 5. Avoiding the Vicious Cycle of Decline Underinvestment leads to reduced usage. Reduced usage leads to funding challenges. Funding challenges lead to further decline. Ron urges communities to: Maintain and modernize infrastructure Pursue airport funding opportunities Treat airports as strategic assets Align airport strategy with broader economic development plans 6. The Future of Aviation Technology Looking ahead, the conversation explores: Autonomous aircraft Advanced air mobility Emerging aviation technologies Increased efficiency in general aviation Communities that prepare now will be positioned to capitalize on the next evolution of aviation. Takeaways for Economic Development Professionals Community airports are anchor institutions — not optional amenities. Investment in airport infrastructure generates long-term economic returns. General aviation plays a larger role in local economies than many realize. Essential air service can determine whether small communities thrive or struggle. Airport engagement and marketing are essential to sustaining funding and support. Education and awareness campaigns can transform public perception. The future of aviation presents new opportunities for proactive communities.

Professor Ronan Hatfull literally wrote the book on the Reduced Shakespeare Company. His new book from Bloomsbury/Arden – Shakespeare in the Theatre: Reduced Shakespeare Company – is the very first full-length study to be published about the RSC. Focusing specifically on our Shakespearean reduction and adaptation, Ronan's book examines the origins and evolution of the company through the creation of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), The Reduced Shakespeare Radio Show, William Shakespeare's Long Lost First Play (abridged), and The Comedy of Hamlet! (a prequel). Ronan shares his methodology; how he wanted to make his book accessible to the general reader; how he learned that the RSC carries on the 17th-century tradition of “drolls”; how the RSC injected a bit of danger and the unexpected into Shakespeare and influenced various folks like the Q Brothers and Potted Potter creator Daniel Clarkson; and how for a limited time, Arden Shakespeare is offering to RSC fans a 35% discount on the hardcover edition of the book! (Length 24:54) The post Reduced Shakespeare Book appeared first on Reduced Shakespeare Company.

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into post-injury rehabilitation is transforming recovery paradigms by enabling personalized, adaptive, and efficient rehabilitation pathways tailored to individual patient needs. This podcast reviews the current advances in AI applications that facilitate assessment, monitoring, and optimization of rehabilitation programs following injuries. Through machine learning algorithms, wearable sensors, and predictive analytics, AI enhances the precision of therapy plans, tracks patient progress in real-time, and predicts recovery trajectories. The discussion includes the benefits of AI-driven rehabilitation, including improved functional outcomes, reduced recovery times, and increased patient engagement. It also addresses challenges such as data privacy, algorithmic bias, and integration with clinical workflows.  1. Transforming recovery paradigms Traditional post‑injury rehab relies on periodic in‑person assessments, therapist intuition, and standardized protocols that only partially account for individual variability. AI is shifting this model toward: Continuous, data‑driven care: Instead of snapshots in clinic, rehab can be informed by near real‑time streams of kinematic, physiological, and behavioral data from wearables, smart devices, and robot interfaces. Dynamic adaptation: Therapy intensity, task difficulty, and exercise selection can be automatically adjusted based on ongoing performance, fatigue, and recovery trends, rather than fixed schedules. Precision rehabilitation: Algorithms can identify which patients are likely to respond to specific interventions (e.g., constraint‑induced movement therapy vs robotics) and tailor plans accordingly. This moves rehabilitation from a "one‑size‑fits‑many" paradigm toward precision, context‑aware therapy, analogous to precision oncology but focused on function and participation. 2. Assessment, monitoring, and optimization AI for assessment Sensor‑based movement analysis: Machine learning models process accelerometer, IMU, EMG, and pressure data to quantify gait symmetry, joint kinematics, balance, and fine motor control with higher resolution than visual observation alone. Automated scoring: AI can approximate or support standardized scales (e.g., Fugl‑Meyer, Berg Balance Scale) by mapping sensor features or video-derived pose estimates to clinical scores, reducing inter‑rater variability and saving clinician time. Continuous monitoring Home and community tracking: Wearable and ambient sensors enable monitoring of daily steps, walking speed, arm use, posture, and adherence to exercises outside the clinic, feeding rich longitudinal datasets into AI models. Real‑time alerts: Algorithms can detect abnormal patterns—such as increased fall risk, reduced limb use, or signs of over‑exertion—and flag the clinician or adjust digital therapy content automatically. Optimization and decision support Predictive models: Using historical data, AI can forecast functional gains, plateau points, or risk of complications (e.g., falls, readmission), supporting individualized goal‑setting and resource allocation. Reinforcement learning and "digital twins": Emerging work in neurorehabilitation treats rehab as a sequential decision problem, using model‑based reinforcement learning and patient "digital twins" to recommend optimal timing, dosing, and progression of interventions over weeks to months.​ 3. Technologies: ML, wearables, analytics Machine learning algorithms: Supervised ML classifies movement quality (normal vs compensatory), detects exercise type from sensor streams, and estimates clinical scores. Unsupervised learning clusters patients into phenotypes (e.g., gait patterns after stroke), revealing subgroups that respond differently to certain therapies. Reinforcement learning and contextual bandits explore which therapy adjustments yield the best long‑term functional outcomes for a given individual.​ Wearable sensors and robotics: Inertial sensors, EMG, pressure insoles, and exoskeleton sensors capture high‑frequency movement and muscle activity data during training. Robotic devices (upper‑limb exoskeletons, gait trainers) coupled with AI can modulate assistance, resistance, or task difficulty in real time based on performance and predicted fatigue. Predictive and prescriptive analytics: Predictive analytics estimate trajectories (e.g., time to independent walking, expected upper‑limb function) to inform shared decisions with patients and families. Prescriptive analytics recommend therapy intensity, modality mix, and scheduling to maximize functional gains under resource constraints. 4. Benefits: outcomes, efficiency, engagement Improved functional outcomes: Studies report better motor recovery, gait quality, and ADL performance when AI‑assisted training is used—especially when robotics and intelligent feedback are involved. Reduced recovery time and resource use: More precise dosing and earlier identification of non‑responders can reduce ineffective sessions, shorten time to key milestones, and support safe earlier discharge with robust remote follow‑up. Increased adherence and engagement: AI‑driven digital rehab platforms use gamification, adaptive difficulty, and personalized feedback to keep patients engaged in home programs, improving adherence compared to static paper instructions. Support for clinicians: Instead of replacing therapists, AI can offload repetitive measurement tasks, highlight concerning trends, and offer data‑driven suggestions, allowing clinicians to focus on relational, motivational, and complex decision‑making aspects of care. 5. Challenges and ethical considerations Data privacy and security: Rehab AI often relies on continuous collection of sensitive motion, physiological, and sometimes audio/video data, raising questions about consent, storage, secondary use, and breach risk. Approaches like federated learning and on‑device processing are being explored to reduce centralization of identifiable data while still enabling model training. Algorithmic bias and fairness: If training data under‑represent older adults, women, certain racial/ethnic groups, or people with severe disability, AI models may misestimate performance or risk for those groups, potentially widening disparities in rehab access and outcomes. Ongoing auditing, diverse datasets, and participatory design with patients and clinicians are needed to ensure equitable performance. Integration with clinical workflows: Many AI tools are developed in research settings and are not yet seamlessly integrated into EHRs, scheduling systems, or therapist documentation workflows. Poorly integrated tools risk adding documentation burden or "alert fatigue," reducing adoption. Successful implementations co‑design interfaces with frontline therapists and physicians. Regulation, liability, and trust: It remains unclear in many jurisdictions how to regulate adaptive rehab algorithms (as medical devices, clinical decision support, or wellness tools) and who is liable when AI‑informed plans cause harm.​ Transparent, explainable models and clear communication to patients about the role of AI are critical for maintaining trust. 6. Case studies and emerging trends Remote and hybrid digital rehabilitation: AI‑driven platforms providing home‑based stroke, orthopedic, or Parkinson's rehab with clinician dashboards are improving adherence and extending care beyond brick‑and‑mortar clinics. Collaborative AI for precision neurorehabilitation: Frameworks combining patient‑clinician goal setting, digital twins, and reinforcement learning exemplify "collaborative AI" that augments rather than replaces therapists.​ Multimodal personalization: Integration of movement data, EMG, heart rate, sleep, and self‑reported pain/fatigue is enabling more nuanced adaptation to daily fluctuations in capacity. Conversational AI for education and coaching: Early work is assessing tools like ChatGPT as low‑risk supports for exercise education and motivation, though they are not yet precise enough to replace professional plan design AI is moving rehab toward patient‑centered, continuously adapting, and data‑rich care, but realizing this promise depends on addressing privacy, bias, workflow, and regulatory challenges in partnership with clinicians and patients.

What happens when a country shuts down every business immigration pathway precisely at the moment it needs entrepreneurs the most?Canada is staring down a $2 trillion crisis. With 75% of Canada's 1.2 million small business owners reportedly planning to exit within the next decade, Canada is facing a succession crisis. Whilst the solution seems obvious to attract new entrepreneurial talent to the country, Canada has instead systematically dismantled almost every route for them to enter.In this episode of Global Investment Voice, immigration expert Sam Bayat joins our host Mona Shah to explore the shocking closure, suspension, and redrafting of major federal business immigration programmes in Canada, at precisely the moment Canada needs entrepreneurs the most.The Federal Investor Programme? Terminated in 2014 after 70,000 fraudulent applications overwhelmed the system. Quebec's investor option? Reduced to single-digit applications after introducing mandatory B2 French proficiency. The innovative Start-Up Visa that once promised so much? Shut down in late 2025 under the weight of 42,000 applications and 35-year processing times.Sam discusses the systemic failures which ended these programmes, such as paper startups and widespread abuse of the system with virtually non-existent enforcement. Perhaps most damning is the maths. Canada needs 100,000 entrepreneurs in the next 20 years, but their current intake now is merely 500.Find out which pathways still exist for serious investors in 2026, what created the growing gap between political rhetoric and economic reality and whether the perfect storm of retiring Canadian business owners alongside closed immigration routes is disastrous or an unexpected opportunity.It's fair to say easy immigration to Canada is over. But has a more strategic game just begun? 

In this solo episode of Hustle Inspires Hustle, Alex Quin breaks down how money in the music industry hasn't disappeared—it has shifted. Traditional spending on radio, press, tours, and long-term artist development is shrinking, while budgets are moving toward platforms that already control daily attention, such as live streaming, creator networks, gaming, sports, and podcasting. He explains that time-based engagement now drives ROI, meaning artists and brands must compete for consistent attention rather than rely on legacy systems. The episode emphasizes that this isn't a collapse of music, but a reallocation of resources toward where audiences spend the most time.Episode Outline: [00:00:00] Introduction – The quiet shift changing money in music [00:00:28] Traditional music industry spending patterns [00:01:05] Reduced upfront artist development and cautious budgets [00:01:27] Where the money actually moved [00:01:52] Music competing for attention across platforms [00:02:24] Live streaming vs. music streaming explained [00:02:48] Drake and time-based cultural presence [00:03:15] Creator ecosystems attracting major budgets [00:03:34] Fewer development deals and shorter promo cycles [00:03:55] Offline impact: concerts, merch, and selective spending [00:04:18] Questions about leverage, time, and behavior [00:04:36] Final takeaway: It's a reallocation, not a collapse [00:04:44] Call to action and closingWisdom Nuggets:Attention Is the New Currency: Money follows behavior. If audiences are spending hours on live streams and creator platforms, that's where brands will invest. Cultural relevance now depends on time earned, not legacy status.Consistency Beats Tradition: Release cycles used to dominate marketing budgets. Now, consistent daily engagement outperforms one-time promotional pushes. Platforms that hold attention every day win long-term investment.Shorter Runways Demand Smarter Strategy: With fewer long-term development deals, artists must think like businesses. Ownership of audience and engagement metrics matter more than ever.Competition Is Broader Than Ever: Music is no longer competing only with other artists. It competes with gaming, live streamers, podcasts, and sports content for the same screen time.Reallocation Isn't Collapse: Industries evolve. When money shifts, it creates opportunity for those who adapt. The key question becomes: are you building behaviors that attract investment?Power Quotes"Music used to dominate cultural attention by default. Now it has to compete for it." - Alex Quin"Money hasn't left entertainment.

The hosts welcome back Mike Nolan for a conversation on Christian identity—why it matters today, how it appears in Scripture, and why it often doesn't move from head knowledge to lived experience. They discuss identity as something primarily imparted through prayer, encounter, and relationships with people living as beloved sons and daughters, rather than merely taught. They explore common obstacles like the orphan mindset, performance and success-based self-worth, shame, and problem-centered spirituality. Then they explain how God dismantles false identities through pruning, suffering, and seasons of desolation.  Finally, they reflect on the role of emotions in forming identity, clarify the difference between humility and low self-esteem, and emphasize that mission flows from relationship with God.

Should Britain move to a shorter working week? Would a three-day or four-day week make us healthier, more productive, and less miserable… or is it just the final stage of national decline dressed up as “wellbeing”?In this episode of Mark and Pete, we dive into the growing push for a reduced working week, inspired by countries like the Netherlands, where people seem to work fewer hours, take more time off, and still manage to run a nation that functions better than ours. Meanwhile, Britain clings to its proud tradition of overworking, underproducing, and pretending that exhaustion is a personality trait.We explore the real evidence behind four-day week trials, productivity studies, and why cutting hours can sometimes increase output. Spoiler: when people have less time, they waste less time. Fewer pointless meetings. Less email theatre. Less corporate box-ticking. More actual work.But we also ask the harder questions. Is the shorter working week only realistic for office workers with laptops and “hybrid schedules”? What about nurses, builders, shop staff, delivery drivers, and everyone else who can't simply log off and call it self-care? Is this reform… or just another perk for the middle class?We also tackle the cultural side of it: if people had more free time, would they invest it into family life, church, community, and rest?

How can we orient toward New Year's resolutions, so that we can show ourselves more compassion, flexibility and patience? What can we anchor into instead? How does this time of year support (or impede upon) our capacity to live a meaningful life?If you want greater balance in your relationships, clearer awareness, and more secure ⁠functioning overall, then keep reading. Here's what improves across your whole life when you go through the Meditation x Attachment Level Two program (which begins Feb 20th): ⁠https://www.mettagroup.org/meditation-x-attachment-level-two⁠

The February 13 edition of the AgNet News Hour wrapped up a powerful week of policy conversations with Part Two of the in-depth interview featuring Edward Ring, Director of Energy and Water Policy at the California Policy Center. While earlier discussions focused heavily on water, this episode zeroed in on energy, oil production, electricity pricing, and California's economic future, all through the lens of common-sense reform. Ring tackled a growing concern in California: refinery closures and the long-term outlook for in-state oil production. As refineries begin shutting down or repurposing to import refined gasoline instead of processing California crude, Ring warned that fuel prices are likely to remain high, and regions like Kern County could suffer economically. He emphasized that California produces some of the cleanest oil in the world yet continues to import crude and refined fuel from overseas, outsourcing environmental impact rather than solving it. The broader issue, Ring explained, is regulatory instability. Oil producers and refiners are hesitant to invest in long-term infrastructure if policy shifts every election cycle. Without consistent leadership and predictable rules, companies won't commit capital to projects that require 10–20 years to pay off. The result? Reduced in-state production and increased dependence on imports. But Ring struck a far more optimistic tone when the conversation turned to electricity. He predicted California is heading toward an era of energy abundance, driven not by mandates, but by innovation. He pointed to emerging technologies like small modular nuclear reactors and decentralized energy generation, including data centers generating surplus power and potentially even electric vehicles serving as mobile battery banks. Ring questioned why natural gas power plants are only operating about 28 percent of the time instead of providing consistent baseload power. If allowed to compete freely, he argued, electricity costs could fall dramatically. Abundant, affordable energy would unlock solutions across the board, from desalination and groundwater recharge to advanced water filtration and inter-basin transfers. The conversation also circled back to forestry and environmental management. Ring noted that reducing logging from historic levels has contributed to catastrophic wildfires and overgrown forests. Strategic thinning and responsible land management, he said, could improve forest health and potentially increase runoff from Sierra watersheds, boosting water supply while reducing fire risk. Throughout the interview, Ring repeatedly emphasized collaboration over conflict. Farmers, urban water agencies, and policymakers must unite behind an “all-of-the-above” strategy for water and energy infrastructure. Instead of fighting over scarcity, California could build toward abundance. As hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill highlighted, the takeaway was simple: California has the resources, oil, water, land, and innovation, but needs leadership willing to prioritize practicality over politics. In Ring's words, “We really could do it all.”

Guests: Chris Riegel and Jim McTague. Riegel and McTague discuss economic warning signs as high costs and consumer debt cause significant slowdowns and reduced foot traffic in the fast-food industry.

Many people are saying the same thing lately: “I'm overwhelmed by everything.”In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores what overwhelm actually is from a neuroscience perspective. Is it just busyness? Or is something deeper happening in the brain?Drawing from research on the amygdala, stress hormones, working memory, and executive function, Molly explains how overwhelm is not about volume alone. It is about perceived overload and a loss of prioritization. When the brain detects too many competing demands and not enough resources, it shifts from organizing to alarming.This episode also revisits a recent WisdomWednesday quote about replacing “I'm overwhelmed” with “I need to decide what matters most and go slow.” Molly clarifies why that statement is directionally true but not neurologically instant. She explains how language influences prediction, prediction shapes physiology, and physiology drives behavior.What You'll LearnWhy overwhelm is a perception of overload, not simply busynessHow the amygdala flags cognitive threatWhat happens to the prefrontal cortex under stressWhy everything feels urgent when executive function is compromisedThe difference between descriptive and prescriptive thoughtsHow repeating “I'm overwhelmed” reinforces neural prediction loopsWhy prioritization restores cognitive flexibilityHow cognitive reappraisal shifts neural activity over timeKey Concepts ExplainedPerceived Overload Overwhelm occurs when the brain interprets demands as exceeding available resources.Amygdala Activation When ambiguity, uncertainty, and competing priorities rise, the amygdala signals threat, increasing stress hormones like cortisol and norepinephrine.Executive Function The prefrontal cortex is responsible for planning, sequencing, prioritizing, and organizing. Under stress, its efficiency decreases.Descriptive vs Prescriptive Thinking Some thoughts label experience. Others shape future experience. Repeating “I'm overwhelmed” reinforces prediction patterns that sustain the feeling.Cognitive Reappraisal Research shows that reinterpreting a situation increases prefrontal cortex activity and decreases amygdala activation over time.Why Language MattersWhen you repeatedly say “I'm overwhelmed,” your brain begins scanning for confirming evidence. Increased vigilance raises stress. Stress reduces clarity. Reduced clarity reinforces overwhelm.Replacing that statement with a prioritizing phrase does not instantly shut down the alarm system. However, it recruits executive function and begins shifting neural activity toward organization and task-based thinking.Language guides prediction. Prediction guides physiology. Physiology guides behavior.Practical ReframeInstead of:“I'm overwhelmed.”Try:What matters most today?What is the next smallest step?What can wait?This is not positive thinking. It is restoring organizing capacity.Overwhelm signals that prioritization has collapsed. Prioritization is a skill that can be strengthened.Behavior Change ConnectionPeople often abandon habits when they feel overwhelmed, not because they lack discipline, but because executive function is compromised.You cannot build new neural pathways from a chronically alarmed state.Restoring order supports follow-through. ★ Support this podcast ★

One of the most common explanations patients hear when they don't feel well on thyroid medication is this: "You're not converting T4 to T3." In this episode of Thyroid Answers, Dr. Eric Balcavage explains why reduced T4-to-T3 conversion is usually not the problem—and why treating it as a defect often leads to aggressive thyroid medication strategies that stabilize labs but destabilize physiology. You'll learn: What T4-to-T3 "conversion" actually is—and why it's regulated, not broken Why clinicians often label symptoms as "poor conversion" How stress, inflammation, infection, sleep disruption, under-fueling, illness, excess T4, and even aging can intentionally reduce T3 production Why adding T3 often backfires and creates symptom volatility How to interpret thyroid labs in context instead of chasing "optimal" numbers Ande More ... This episode reframes reduced conversion as an adaptive signal, not a failure—and explains why true thyroid recovery depends on changing the conditions the body is responding to, not forcing output with medication.

In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Jeff Clark to the show. Jeff is the editor of Jeff Clark Trader, a newsletter focused on options trading. Using his decades' worth of experience, Jeff helps his subscribers profit from options regardless of the market environment.   Jeff kicks things off by stating how options trading can be a great way to invest. He says if you're responsible, you can reduce your risk and improve your upside in a trade. He then dissects a core rule of trading: maintaining discipline. Knowing how much capital you're willing to risk in a trade is the first step. Jeff says a common mistake folks make is putting all their money in without proper risk assessment. On the other hand, he warns that handling winners is equally important. Knowing when to take money out of winning trades can help you preserve your gains. (0:00)   Next, Jeff shares some of his personal rules and strategies. He provides two consistent rules that he uses in his trades. However, he also acknowledges that the market is constantly fluctuating and explains his strategies in a few different market scenarios. Jeff follows up by detailing how much money he's willing to risk in certain trades based on his portfolio. When the topic of AI is brought up, Jeff says that while it's great in analyzing data in the long term, he believes it can't predict how investors can react in the short term. (19:06)   Finally, Jeff emphasizes how investors won't know when a stock has peaked and when it has bottomed until long after the moment has passed. As a result, he warns against bottom fishing and thinking you're getting a good deal on a stock, because it just might keep sliding down. Additionally, he thinks that investors should be responsible with their money, especially the older they get. Making risky plays with retirement money is never a wise decision. Jeff then wraps things up by showing how to earn income by selling uncovered puts. (37:41)

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Sonja: Dr Cabral thank you so much for all of the wonderful education you have been sharing with us over the years to help us be healthier. My family and I greatly appreciate it along with so many others around the world! I am a 60 year old woman who was diagnosed with hemochromatosis about 2 and 1/2 years ago. Thanks to the minerals and metals test that I completed which raised a red flag on the iron level, I was able to get my doctor to do a ferritin blood test to find out that my level was at 725! Over the past couple of years, I have been working with a hematologist and getting therapeutic phlebotomies as needed. I eat clean, workout and have an overall healthy lifestyle with minimal alcohol consumption. I do a 7-Day Detox 3 to 4 times a year, daily DNS shake along with multiple Equilife supplements. My question to you is - if I was your aunt what protocols or recommendations would you have for me? I would love to reverse the diagnosis of hemochromatosis. In addition, what would be the ferritin range that you would recommend? My hematologist wants it as low as possible (around 30) however my energy is very low when it's at the levels that he desires. Thank you so much for everything that you do. Sonja      Peter: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks for the great work you do and your books! I'm generally in good health and currently not on any medications. For the past 2–3 years I've been very consistent with lifestyle habits: clean diet, training 5–6x/week (3x strength, 2x cardio, 1x HIIT), no alcohol, consistent sleep schedule, sauna ~3x/week, and daily bowel movements. Despite this, I've experienced low libido for several years. It fluctuates, but I haven't been able to identify clear triggers or improvements. A few years ago, blood work showed elevated prolactin. My doctor prescribed Dostinex (dopamine agonist), which resolved libido symptoms effectively, but felt too strong. I'd prefer to identify and address the underlying cause rather than suppress symptoms. Recent blood work again shows elevated prolactin and elevated SHBG. Free testosterone is low. Blood sugar is within range but not optimal given my lifestyle. LDL is also elevated. Primary symptoms • Low libido (low initial drive, rare or absent morning erections) • Skin issues for ~1.5 years (none prior): – Redness on chin and temples, flaring after meals and after B-complex supplements – Small forehead bumps resembling acne that appear and disappear within a day Secondary symptoms • Slightly flat mood • Low muscle gain relative to training effort • Occasional cold hands • Frequent urination (including at night) • Low evening energy • Reduced interest in socializing I've tried various supplements over time but without a clear framework or plan. I'm hoping you could share your thoughts on possible root causes and what testing or protocol you would prioritize. Thank you for your work and guidance! Best, Peter     Michelle: Hi Stephen, I've experienced sensitivity to Equilife's Florafilm & another brand of proteolytic enzymes (nausea & vomiting). I have no allergies and have never experienced a negative reaction to a supplement. I am in overall good health and not on any medication and was wondering what might be causing such a reaction? I tried taking just one of the capsules instead of two on an empty stomach and experienced similar side effects. Is this product by chance enteric coated? I read that could help prevent side effects. Lastly is there a product you could recommend in its place to help remove biofilms so that the Para Support protocol will continue to be most effective? I found a product that contains Bismuth Subnitrate, Alpha lipoic Acid and Black Cumin (Priority One Biolm). Would it be ok to take this product in place of the Florafilm? I have been taking just one capsule of it with no side effects (product recommends 2 capsules 4 days a week) or is there a better solution as I do want to do some other Equilife protocols and noticed they also contain the Florafilm product. I love your Podcast and Equilife products and disappointed this one doesn't work for me. Thank you for all you do!      Larissa: Hello Dr Cabral. My 4yrs old son is allergic to dogs, I suspect the saliva. When he pets a dog nothing happens but when a dog licks him or his hands and he touches his face, that area gets red and swollen within minutes. Is this common? Is it possible this will go away? Is there a way to test him for this and more importantly treat him for this? I've heard of the NAET protocol, do you recommend this? Appreciate any advice!         Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3656 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Focus areas: Pharmacy inflation projections Acute vs ambulatory care trends Provider-administered vs self-administered drugs Biosimilar therapeutic insights Dynamic pharmacy market forces shaping 2026–2030 Guests: Jeni Hayes, Senior Clinical Manager, Strategic Clinical Intelligence Heather Pace, Senior Clinical Manager, Ambulatory Care   01:09 — What Is the Spend Management Outlook (SMO)? Biannual Vizient publication projecting price trends across healthcare spend categories. Pharmacy headline: Inflation slightly lower than last edition Total spend still rising, driven by utilization growth and new technologies   01:49 — Top-Line Pharmacy Inflation Projection 2.84% projected drug inflation for purchases between July 2026 – June 2027. Down from 3.35% in the prior edition. Based on October 2024 – September 2025 wholesaler data. Heavily weighted toward highest-spend drugs. Contracted products show lower inflation; non-contract drugs still ~70% of spend.   02:45 — Inflation by Site of Care Acute Care 3.03% projected inflation Driven by: Sugammadex Kcentra Clotting factors Ambulatory Care 2.85% overall, but with key divergence: Provider-administered drugs: 3.35% Self-administered drugs: 2.43%   04:02 — Provider-Administered Drugs: What's Driving Growth Oncology infusions are the main drivers. Key agents: Keytruda Darzalex Faspro Continued growth due to: Expanded indications Increased outpatient infusion utilization Oncology split by site of care: Inpatient: High-cost CAR T (e.g., Yescarta) Outpatient: Infusions, bispecifics, emerging cellular therapies Emphasizes importance of site of care strategy.   05:14 — Self-Administered Drugs: Utilization Over Inflation Five key drivers: Autoimmune / inflammatory: Skyrizi, Dupixent, Rinvoq Diabetes / metabolic / weight loss: Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound Spend growth fueled by: Media exposure Expanded indications Increased patient demand Opportunity for: Retail & specialty pharmacy optimization Margin capture Patient support (adherence, counseling, benefits investigation)   06:45 — New Section: Dynamic Pharmacy Market Forces (2026–2030) Seven strategic forces influencing pharmacy practice: Growth in specialty and cell & gene therapies Expansion of value- and outcomes-based contracting Siteofcare shifts toward ambulatory and home Digital transformation & automation Supply assurance and resilience Expanded pharmacist clinical scope & workforce models Regulatory and policy efforts to lower drug prices 340B changes IRA Medicare Part D negotiations   09:37 — Practical Takeaways for Pharmacy Leaders Use 2.84% inflation as a baseline — then customize using Vizient Pharmacy Analytics. Leverage segmented views to prioritize: Acute vs ambulatory strategies Provider-administered vs self-administered drugs Identify top spend movers and align them with long-term market forces. Consider: Specialty pharmacy expansion Site of care optimization   10:48 — Biosimilar Therapeutic Insights: 2025 Recap Heather Pace highlights: Shift from biosimilar approval to active adoption management. Ustekinumab (Stelara) as defining example: Multiple biosimilars Uptake driven by payer and PBM strategy Utilization varies widely based on: Formulary design Benefit alignment Biosimilars now actively steered, not passively adopted.   11:50 — Why Stelara Was a Turning Point PBM-developed, private-label biosimilars drove adoption. Net cost and copay design outweighed: Interchangeability status Manufacturer differentiation Sets expectations for future biologic launches.   12:25 — Operational Impact for Health Systems Expect payer-specific product preferences. Frequent switching will become routine. Key considerations: Siteofcare mandates Product presentation Supply chain logistics Billing & reimbursement complexity Clinical barriers are decreasing; workflow flexibility is critical.   13:09 — What to Expect From Biosimilars in 2026 Faster adoption timelines Earlier payer-driven switching Fewer preferred products Less reliance on reference product trial periods   13:45 — Biosimilars With Major 2026 Impact Eylea — multiple launches expected post-litigation Xolair — expansion into asthma/allergy and retail specialty Perjeta — oncology pathway disruption expected late 2026 / early 2027   15:01 — 2025 Biosimilars Impacting 2026 Ustekinumab (Stelara): broader formulary shifts Denosumab (Prolia, Xgeva): full year of impact; all interchangeable Eculizumab (Soliris): first rare-disease biosimilar entry   15:58 — FDA Biosimilar Guidance to Watch Late-2025 FDA guidance: Reduced reliance on clinical efficacy trials Greater emphasis on analytical similarity Aims to: Reduce development cost Accelerate market entry   16:26 — Interchangeability: Where Things Are Headed Moving toward expectation that all biosimilars are interchangeable. Shifts responsibility to: Payers Health systems Pharmacists managing transitions and education   17:17 — Biggest Shift in the Biosimilar Landscape Faster launches Larger scale adoption Payer strategy more influential than timing of approval Success depends on: Formulary fit Channel alignment Operational simplicity   17:41 — Final Biosimilar Insight Biosimilar strategies must be molecule-specific. One-size-fits-all approaches are no longer effective.   18:13 — Final Thoughts on the SMO Inflation projections are a starting point. Leaders should: Focus on top spend drugs Understand siteofcare and specialty drivers Translate projections into actionable budgets   18:40 — Resources Winter 2026 Spend Management Outlook available on Vizient's SMO Hub.

You move fast in this episode, stacking Quick Tips that shave friction off your day almost immediately. You tell Siri to take notes on command, record audio directly inside Notes with native transcripts, and pull off smarter gestures in CarPlay Maps and iOS 26 Safari that feel hidden in plain sight. You tame the Camera side button, rename files faster from Finder and app toolbars, and generally remind yourself that small muscle-memory tweaks compound into real time saved. This is the kind of workflow polish that keeps you ahead instead of catching up. Then the conversation sharpens. You dig into why troubleshooting advice can be too eager to fix the wrong problem, unpack what “absolute mode” thinking really means, and react to Apple's acquisition moves and fresh AirTag releases. Listener questions take you into practical territory like grabbing a single frame from video, sharing iCloud calendars with Android users, and understanding how features get quietly “nerfed,” leading to Pilot Pete’s perfectly named Newly Effectuated Reduced Functionality. You wrap with Cool Stuff Found that spans Vision Pro accessories, immersive gaming, and travel-ready power. The throughline is clear: know what still works, notice what's been taken away, and adapt before it costs you time.

Michael Remis from Winnipeg Sports Talk joined the show to talk about the struggling Winnipeg Jets. The story of the season for the Jets has been depth scoring. Outside of their top line, it has looked bleak. When you can't score, you can't win games. How far will the selloff go at the trade deadline? Tune in now!

  The Masculinity We Inherited… And Why It Stops Working Most men didn't choose their model of masculinity. We absorbed it—through family, culture, locker rooms, workplaces, and silence. This episode was sparked by a long conversation between Andrew Huberman and therapist/author Terry Real about masculinity, emotional health, and relationships. What stood out wasn't a new, flashy idea—it was language. Language for something most men feel but don't always know how to name. This isn't a lecture. It's not political. It's three men thinking out loud about what works, what doesn't, and what might actually help. At AMG, the goal isn't perfection—it's practice. And we lead with curiosity over defensiveness. The Masculinity Model We Inherited Most of us were taught a version of masculinity that prizes: Stoicism Self-reliance Emotional restraint Vulnerability was framed—explicitly or implicitly—as weakness. The message wasn't always spoken, but it was clear: Handle it. Don't need too much. Don't feel too much. As Terry Real puts it (paraphrased): Avoiding vulnerability doesn't eliminate it—it follows you. What That Feels Like Internally For many men, this shows up physically before it shows up emotionally: A tight chest A clenched jaw Emotional narrowing And when emotions do surface, the vocabulary is limited. Most men were handed four options: fine, tired, stressed, or pissed. An AMG Practice Instead of defaulting to "I'm fine," practice naming what's actually there—even if it's clumsy at first. Reflection: What emotions felt unsafe or unwelcome growing up? The Cost No One Warned Us About The inherited model works—until it doesn't. Performance-based worth can drive achievement. But achievement delivers pleasure, not relational joy. Many men reach a confusing place where they are: Competent but disconnected Successful but quietly lonely Calm on the surface, angry underneath Anger often becomes the only "allowed" emotion because it still feels powerful. This isn't about becoming soft. It's about becoming more effective and more connected. At AMG, we don't just name behavior—we name cost. Reflection: Where has this model worked for you? Where has it quietly failed you? Redefining Strength What if vulnerability isn't a collapse—but a skill? Strength isn't the absence of discomfort. Strength is the capacity to stay present with it. This includes: Expressing needs clearly instead of controlling outcomes Naming truth without blame Allowing discomfort without shutting down Terry Real (paraphrased): Strength includes the capacity to identify and name our needs respectfully. Important Distinctions Oversharing vs. clean honesty Presence vs. emotional flooding Vulnerability vs. losing regulation Many men confuse control with strength—when in reality, control is often fear in disguise. Reflection: Where do you confuse control with strength? Relational Mindfulness & Healthy Distance Relational maturity isn't about reacting better—it's about noticing sooner. This means: Recognizing internal reactions before acting Taking space to regulate, not punish Returning to the relationship clean instead of armored Sometimes "I need space" quietly turns into a two-day blackout. That's not regulation—that's avoidance. At AMG, the practice is simple and demanding: Rest. Regulate. Return. When done well, you'll notice: A settling nervous system Reduced reactivity More honest connection Weekly Practice This week, notice one moment when you want to shut down or get defensive. Stay present 10 seconds longer than you normally would. No fixing. No explaining. Just presence. Reflection Questions What masculinity model did you inherit? Where is it costing you connection? What would strength-as-presence look like this week? What's Next In Episode 2, we'll explore: Ownership vs. self-blame Coping vs. numbing Brotherhood as a legitimate mental health strategy Because men don't heal in isolation—and they never have.  

In 2009, 246 people were victims of gun violence in Omaha, Nebraska. In 2022, that number was 121, reflective of a steady decline over more than a decade. That reduction in gun violence was the result of the work of Omaha 360, a persistent and consistent effort by organizations and leaders across the city who come together every week to share data, coordinate strategies, and respond to community needs. This work is paired with youth engagement, reentry services, and engagement with law enforcement agencies-supporting violence prevention from every angle.rnrnWillie Barney founded Omaha 360 through his work with the Empowerment Network, a community building initiative that has grown from an idea into a broad community-wide collaborative supporting efforts in education, workforce development, and housing. Douglas County, Nebraska's Sheriff's office was a key partner to the effort. Wayne Hudson--now Chief of Police in Shaker--helped to lead and support the work.rnrnMeanwhile, municipalities across Cuyahoga County have long sought to reduce gun violence. Recent years have seen emergency departments consistently reporting more than 300 gunshot wounds each year. And in 2025, County Executive Chris Ronayne appointed Myesha Watkins administrator of the county's Office of Violence Prevention, and the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas has recently created a new Violence Intervention Program.

If, like us, you grew up in the late 70's- 1990s, you were inundated with one new, and seemingly world-saving message. RECYCLE! Don't just throw things into the landfill; recycle what you use, reduce your use and reuse what you have! Unfortunately, Recycling Centers aren't just home to hard workers trying to help us make the world better. They are sometimes used to dispose of people. TodayI will be telling the stories of bodies found at Recycling Centers. Some accidental, some, like Stephanie Standen, were purposeful. Listener warning, as this will include the story of Baby Precious. A newborn, disposed of like garbage.To get started on your own newspapers.com journey, Go to Newspapers.com/Crime.

Cold weather worsens arthritis symptoms by thickening joint fluid, slowing blood flow, and tightening muscles, which amplifies pain and stiffness Drops in barometric pressure cause tendons and muscles to expand, adding extra pressure to already inflamed joints and increasing discomfort Reduced sunlight during winter lowers vitamin D levels, weakening bones and increasing inflammation, while inactivity further restricts circulation Eliminating seed oils, boosting vitamin K2, optimizing vitamin D, and sipping warm bone broth help reduce inflammation, strengthen cartilage, and restore flexibility Daily movement, heat therapy, and sunlight exposure keep joints lubricated, improve circulation, and help you stay active and pain-free all winter long

AN APOCALYPTIC WASTELAND AND THE PATH TO VICTORY Colleague James M. Scott. LeMay was relieved when reports indicated light opposition, validating his gamble. By dawn, 16 square miles of Tokyo were reduced to ash, and 105,000 people were dead—four times the toll of Dresden. The firebombing campaign continued against other major cities like Nagoya and Kobe, eventually running out of major targets and moving to smaller towns. By the time the atomic bomb was ready in July, LeMay had already destroyed much of Japan's industrial capacity. The atomic bomb was viewed by LeMay as merely a "big bang" that overshadowed his conventional success. NUMBER 7 1945 OKINAWA
