Send us a textAcoustic inspection stands as a silent sentinel in semiconductor manufacturing, detecting microscopic defects that could lead to catastrophic failures in high-value applications. Bryan Schackmuth, Senior Product Line Manager at Nordson Test and Inspection, reveals how this technology has evolved from laboratory tools to production-line essentials.When ultrasound encounters even the tiniest air gap—we're talking hundreds of angstroms—it reflects completely, making acoustic imaging uniquely powerful for evaluating bonds between materials. While optical inspection shows surface defects and X-ray reveals density variations, acoustic inspection peers between layers, identifying delamination and other hidden flaws that might otherwise escape detection until field failure.The challenges of advanced packaging have driven significant innovation in acoustic inspection technology. As manufacturers stack more die, create complex interconnects, and push toward heterogeneous integration, the value of each wafer increases dramatically. Nordson's SpinSam system represents a breakthrough in this space, replacing traditional raster scanning with a rotational approach that achieves 41 wafers per hour—eight times faster than previous generation technology—while maintaining resolution down to 10 microns.Beyond pure speed, the system's spinning scan technology offers unique advantages for edge inspection where defects are more common due to coefficient of thermal expansion effects. The modular design allows maintenance on individual scanners while others continue operating, maximizing uptime in production environments. Most exciting is the integration of AI and machine learning for defect detection, moving beyond simple thresholds to analyze complex multilayer images simultaneously.Want to see how your inspection strategies might benefit from these advances? Check out Nordson's SpinSam technology at nordson.com and discover how acoustic inspection is helping manufacturers achieve higher yields and more reliable products in today's most demanding semiconductor applications.Support the showBecome a sustaining member!

How did the New Testament come to be? The ancient writings that comprise the New Testament are critical for understanding the life, teachings, and impact of Jesus of Nazareth, all of which are central to Christianity. But how were these texts circulated, collected, and given their canonical status? Is the New Testament a trustworthy source for learning about Jesus and the early church? New Testament scholar Charles L. Quarles will join us to address the most pressing questions regarding the study of New Testament texts, their transmission, and their collection into the canon.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What's the first step in building a smart, reliable operation? Hint: It's not AI. In this episode of Reliability Radio, we're joined by Jeff Kinard from Prometheus Group, who drops hard-earned wisdom on what actually moves the needle. From baseline data to data governance and building trust between tech and people—it's all about doing the blocking and tackling before you throw deep.

What's the real value of reliability in your organisation?It's a simple question—but one that's often overlooked before businesses jump into big investments in technology or strategy. And yet, it's the question that sits at the heart of effective asset management.Over the years, working closely with a wide range of organisations, we've seen a common pattern: many skip the most important first step—getting crystal clear on what reliability actually means for their business. Without that alignment, even the best condition monitoring tools or maintenance strategies can miss the mark.In this episode, we talk about how to build a strong business case for reliability—one that really connects with leadership and drives decisions. We also unpack why Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is such a powerful metric. It gives a full-picture view by balancing availability, performance, and quality—essential ingredients for any reliability programme. Measuring these before you start sets the stage to show true financial impact down the line.Here's a stat worth paying attention to: about 80% of equipment failures are preventable. But prevention doesn't start with gadgets—it starts with understanding. Too often, companies rush into solutions without first figuring out why their assets are failing in the first place. We share a real-life example of a site that almost spent a fortune on sensors that would've only covered 20% of their critical equipment. A solid assessment saved them from a costly misstep.The real game-changer? It's not tech—it's people. Awareness and training spark the kind of cultural shift that keeps reliability efforts alive and thriving. When everyone—from the shop floor to the boardroom—understands their role in keeping things running, that's when real transformation happens.Whether you're just getting started or trying to breathe new life into an existing programme, this episode lays out a roadmap to make reliability a true business driver—not just a technical checkbox.Tune in now and learn how to ignite your organisation's reliability journey.Support the show

Bill Kanasky, Jr., Ph.D. continues discussing the importance of validity and reliability in jury research and specifically talks about the use of the clopening in jury research. The clopening is a combined opening and closing statement - basically a summary presentation of the case. The issue with the clopening is that it impacts your validity and reliability because jurors don't hear clopenings in a real trial so any feedback collected is skewed. Also, in order to get the most accurate data in jury research, you have to measure immediately after the presented stimulus/information. For example, if you want feedback on your opening, you must measure immediately after the delivery of the opening. If you want feedback on a witness, the measurement must come immediately after the mock jurors hear from that witness. Waiting to gather feedback until all witnesses have been shown will not provide an accurate measurement. The most scientifically sound methodology for conducting jury research is to take measurements immediately after completing delivery of each piece of content that you want feedback on. Any other process for data collection will compromise your validity.  Watch the video of this episode: https://www.courtroomsciences.com/r/ZBE

Bill Kanasky, Jr., Ph.D. describes the scientific concepts of validity and reliability in research and why they are individually and collectively so important when conducting jury research. The question that validity helps answer is: are you measuring what you think you are measuring? Bill gives examples of how you can limit or improve your validity through witnesses and presentations in jury research. It's critically important to secure a clean read in your research and Bill explains how to achieve that.  Reliability in research refers to the consistency and repeatability of a measurement, so that if the same process is repeated under the same conditions, it should yield similar results. Having reliability in your data means you can count on the results and increases confidence in the findings to better guide decision-making on your case.

Jeremy Au discussed how pitching, trust, and fundraising work. He explained that pitching is about expressing a future others can believe in, not just raising money. He shared how traction builds trust, why capital must be chosen carefully, and how great founders turn investor interest into leverage. Drawing on examples like Rewind.ai and BenchSci, he laid out what separates good pitches from great businesses. Pitch to clarify thinking: Saying your plan out loud invites feedback and sharpens your logic.Traction builds trust, not slides: Focus on customer milestones first—VCs only glance at decks.Trust is built, not assumed: Show credibility, deliver reliably, be warm, and care beyond yourself.Keep small promises: Reliability grows when you do what you say, even with tiny tasks.Say yes to help: Accepting offers like coffee builds closeness and rapport.

In this second part of the conversation, Mark O'Malley returns to discuss with co-host Michael Barnard grid reliability and the evolving challenges of integrating renewable energy.The conversation examines successful examples from Germany, Denmark, and Ireland, highlighting Ireland's unique position as a synchronous island. Texas also emerges as a case study, demonstrating how increased wind and solar capacity has contributed to improved grid stability. While these examples show progress, the discussion underscores the importance of balancing reliability standards with cost-effectiveness and exploring solutions such as flexible supply chains and industrial demand response to manage renewable intermittency.The episode delves into the state of research on power system transformation. While planning methodologies for renewables are well understood, gaps remain in implementation and data availability. Inverter-based resources (IBRs) are making strides, but their seamless integration into the grid remains a work in progress. High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) technology has proven effective, but its interaction with AC systems requires further study. The need for improved models is evident, as utilities and grid operators require greater confidence before deploying new technologies. However, commercial realities often hinder investment in specialized power system analysis tools, further complicating the transition.A key topic is the Global Power System Transformation Consortium (GPST), which is working toward becoming a legal entity capable of managing resources and funding. The initiative aims to support system operators worldwide in implementing cutting-edge research and solutions, requiring significant financial backing. Estimates suggest that $2 billion will be needed for global implementation, with an additional $500 million required for research and demonstrations. Despite these financial hurdles, progress is being made, as developers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) recognize the economic benefits of supporting GPST.Beyond funding, the industry faces another pressing challenge—an acute shortage of highly skilled power system professionals. While the demand for expertise is growing exponentially, talent production is increasing at a much slower pace. Bridging this gap will require targeted strategies to develop a new generation of engineers and researchers, ensuring that the power sector can keep up with the accelerating energy transition.Action items from this episode include reaching out to Mark O'Malley to explore GPST funding opportunities and developing strategies to scale up the production of skilled professionals in the power sector.        

Lee talks about the critical factors that contribute to career success, encapsulated in the concept of PI: Performance, Image, and Exposure. Lee emphasises that while performance accounts for only 10% of success, image and exposure play significantly larger roles, at 30% and 60% respectively. He discusses the importance of personal, product, and professional branding, urging listeners to consider how they present themselves and their teams. Through real-world examples and insights from conversations with change practitioners, Lee highlights the necessity of aligning branding efforts and increasing visibility to foster trust and credibility within organisations. This episode serves as a guide for individuals and teams looking to enhance their impact and recognition in their professional environments. KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding PI for Career Success: Career success is influenced by three factors: Performance (10%), Image (30%), and Exposure (60%). While performance is essential, image and exposure play a more significant role in how individuals are perceived and recognised in their careers. Three Brand Perspectives: When considering career and team success, it's important to evaluate from three brand perspectives: personal brand (individuals), product brand (the services or products offered), and professional brand (the team or organisation). Each aspect should align to create a cohesive identity. Authenticity in Exposure: Exposure should be authentic to the individual or team. Engaging in social media or other platforms should reflect one's true self rather than conforming to external expectations. There are various ways to increase exposure that align with personal values. Building Trust through Reliability and Credibility: Trust is built through demonstrating reliability (performance), credibility (image), and intimacy (exposure). Ensuring that these elements are present can enhance relationships and foster a positive reputation within an organisation. Importance of Branding and Communication: Change teams should actively manage their image and exposure. This includes having a clear team identity, consistent branding, and effective communication strategies to ensure that their contributions are recognised and valued within the organisation. BEST MOMENTS "10% of career success is down to performance, 30% down to the image that you have, and 60% down to your exposure." "You need to think about performance, image, and exposure to ensure that many people have an opportunity to understand who you are, how you help, and what you do." "Far too many change people believe that just by doing a good job, people will recognise what they're doing. But unfortunately, that doesn't work." "If you can get others to build connection with you first, then you've got a far greater chance of having a successful change team." "You want to make the team stand the test of time, and it comes down to not just doing a good job."

The 100th episode of the mucked up my self-care podcast certainly aligned with our vision and realities. From technical hiccups to sick children in the background, our 100th episode celebration embodied everything the Mucked Up My Self Care Podcast stands for – real, interrupted, and beautifully imperfect self-care. Join hosts Jill and Linda as they reflect on their two-year journey, sharing vulnerable moments and profound revelations that have shaped not just their podcast, but their approach to motherhood, entrepreneurship, and self-care.Key TakeawaysSelf-care doesn't require perfection. Through 100 episodes and nearly 40 hours of recorded conversations, Jill and Linda have discovered that self-care isn't about yoga retreats and spa days. It's about finding small moments throughout your day – even while picking up dog poop barefoot in the grass – and embracing the interruptions rather than fighting against them.We're all "born" alongside our children. As Jill beautifully reflected, "I was born at the same time that my son was born as a mom." Each new phase of motherhood requires a rebirth, learning to process emotions and prioritize ourselves in entirely new ways. This perspective gives us permission to be beginners again and again.Creating your village is essential work. The podcast itself has become a form of community care, bridging the gap for mothers seeking connection. As one listener noted, "It took a while to create a village because I couldn't find a village." This shared experience of searching for and building support systems validates the struggle many mothers face.Reliability comes in unexpected forms. Despite the chaos of life with children, recording 100 episodes across 677 days has become a source of reliability and self-care for both hosts. Their weekly conversations have fostered friendship, accountability, and a space to prioritize themselves amid the demands of motherhood and entrepreneurship.Our approach to self-care evolves. From basic needs like showering in the early postpartum days to embracing "rage vacuuming" as a legitimate form of emotional release, the hosts have expanded their definition of self-care. These evolving perspectives remind us that self-care looks different in different seasons.Keep Unstucking Your Muck!As we celebrate this milestone, we invite you to join our self-care village for the next 100 episodes. Whether you're a first-time listener or have been with us since episode one, there's a place for you in this conversation about messy, interrupted, imperfect self-care.Connect with us on social media to share your self-care wins and struggles. Remember, as we've learned over these 100 episodes, there are no rules – it's okay to muck it up rather than get it right.Email us muckedupmyselfcare@gmail.comConnect with Jill www.mamaoutspoken.comConnect with Linda www.conversationsforgrowth.comHeard in 30+ countries and counting – thank you for making our podcast part of your self-care journey!
