FRANKOPAN8.mp3 - Unsustainable Modern Consumption and the Need for Knowledge Professor Peter Frankopan | The Earth Transformed: An Untold History This segment addresses modern civilization's unsustainable consumption. One cotton shirt requires 2,700 liters of fresh water—equivalent to two and a half years of drinking water for one person. The global fashion industry accounts for 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions. Global food waste is immense, with 930 million tons wasted annually, often due to consumer demands for "perfect" produce. Advanced civilization is described as brittle, relying on constant luck, and when failures occur, the most vulnerable suffer disproportionately. The author concludes that education is crucial to provide the knowledge necessary to understand these resource cycles and implement sustainable practices.
What does it really take to succeed in life—God's way? Brother Duane teaches the four foundational truths that shape every story of success. In part 2 of "Four Keys to Every Success Story", Duane shares how sacrifice and experience develop strength, maturity, and success that lasts—both in life and in your walk with God. According to Romans 12 and Philippians 3, transformation starts with surrender and the renewal of your mind. True success requires letting go of anything that hinders God's purpose and trusting Him through every experience, both good and bad. Even in failure, God can bring beauty from ashes and turn mistakes into lessons that lead to growth. These principles reveal that success in God's Kingdom isn't just about achievement—it's about character, perseverance, and allowing His wisdom to shape every part of your life.
Discussion QuestionsSermon Overview Not all who are interested in Jesus are disciples of Jesus (v. 25)Digging Deeper Read Luke 14:25-351. What does Jesus mean when he says in verse 26 that to follow him means hating our family? What other passages in the Bible can help bring clarity?2. Are there any dynamics within your family that can, at times, make it challenging to put Jesus first? How do you typically handle those situations? 3. Verse 27 teaches us that to be a disciple of Jesus involves a willingness to take on the death of self-denial. What are some of the things you might otherwise say yes to, but now say no to, in order that you might say yes to Christ? 4. What is the gain of following Jesus?5. In verse 33, Jesus tells us that renouncing all that we have is a requirement for being his disciple. What does this mean? What does this look like for you? 6. To trust Jesus as our Savior and our Lord means there is nothing he does not have the right to ask of us. Is there anything that comes to mind you really hope Jesus does not ask you to give up? If so, share. How can you determine if that thing is being held on too tightly in light of Jesus? 7. “There is nothing Jesus calls us to in this passage that he hasn't already done for us.” What does that mean? Do you find encouragement from this? How so?8. Think about how you talk about the Christian life to others. How is that similar or different from Jesus' description here?Prayer
Watch this episode on YouTube here.From China's stranglehold on critical minerals to the coming AI power crunch, energy is no longer a domestic policy issue — it's the front line of global power.To discuss how America's new National Energy Dominance Council is built to weaponize oil, gas, coal, and nuclear as tools of statecraft — and why abandoning them hands Beijing and Moscow the keys to the century — host Cliff May is joined by his FDD colleague, Rich Goldberg. Rich, a Navy intelligence officer turned senior National Security Council official, helped conceive and stand up the White House's new Energy Council.
Local and tribal governments will now get an advanced notice before state wildlife officials relocate bears into their area, under a new state law that went into effect this week.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover Trump's viral sombrero memes targeting Democrats, the Pentagon's crackdown on leaks, fresh warnings for U.S. farmers and ranchers, the massive energy demands of AI, the arrest of Nord Stream saboteurs, Ukraine's push for Tomahawk missiles, Chinese mafia violence in Italy, Trump's Gaza peace deal, and even a rare case of good news about China's green energy trash. From mariachi memes to missile wars and mafia battles, today's brief connects the headlines shaping America and the world. Trump's Sombrero Memes Spark Outrage: The White House posted AI videos mocking Democrats with sombreros and mustaches as they demanded $1 trillion for health care, part of which would go to migrants. VP JD Vance shrugged, saying, “Hakeem Jeffries said it was racist… but I honestly don't even know what that means.” GOP commentators called the memes “politically genius” for using humor to spotlight taxpayer costs. Pentagon Orders Polygraphs to Stop Leaks: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth now requires NDAs and random polygraph tests for all staff and contractors to crack down on leaks. Bryan cautions that “polygraphs are tools, not an oracle,” recalling how his first CIA test flagged him for feeling guilty about stealing junior high concession stand quarters. Screwworm Outbreak Worsens in Mexico: Cases jumped 32 percent in September to 6,700, including 5,000 in cattle. Ranchers warn the deadly parasite could soon hit Texas and drive beef prices higher. Bryan urges, “Stock up now.” Farmers and Trump Clash Over Argentina Soybeans: After Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent bailed out President Milei, Argentina sold $7 billion in soybeans to China, undercutting U.S. farmers. Trump promised a bailout using tariff funds, but Democrats are blocking the deal. Bryan calls it “a Mexican standoff” with farmers caught in the middle. AI Revolution Requires 44 New Nuclear Reactors: The IEEE reports U.S. AI demand will equal the output of 44 new nuclear power plants within five years. Russia remains the top uranium supplier. Trump is expanding coal leases and equity stakes in mineral and energy companies, while Bryan slams Silicon Valley's AGI obsession: “Give me a little buddy I can train each day… not a know-it-all chatbot filled with junk data.” Nord Stream Saboteur Arrested in Ukraine Plot: German officials detained a Ukrainian tied to the 2022 pipeline bombing, allegedly ordered by General Valery Zaluzhny. Defense may argue the sabotage was a legitimate act of war. Ukraine Pushes for Tomahawk Missiles: Trump leans toward sending 1,500-mile Tomahawks for “kind-for-kind” strikes. Putin warned it would make America a direct combatant, with U.S. CIA and Special Forces bases likely targets. Bryan warns Russia could also strike from Mexico or use saboteurs posing as asylum seekers. Chinese Mafia Wars in Italy: Gun battles erupt in Prato as Chinese gangs fight over the $115 million hanger market for Italy's fast fashion industry. The city's Chinese population exploded from 500 in 1990 to 40,000 today, fueling Beijing-backed mafia influence. Hamas Has Hours to Accept Trump's Gaza Plan: Qatar, Turkey, and Egypt told Hamas to accept Trump's deal or lose support. Turkey may gain F-35 jets and Egypt may see Trump pause recognition of Somaliland in return. Bryan says, “We are on a knife's edge… pray for peace.” China Finds a Use for Dirty Green Energy Trash: Beijing is planting old wind turbine blades in the Gobi Desert to block sand dunes, creating a “New Great Wall of China.” Bryan admits, “It makes me sad to report it, but this one actually works.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Trump sombrero memes Hakeem Jeffries, JD Vance sombrero quote, Pete Hegseth Pentagon polygraph leaks, screwworm outbreak Mexico Texas beef, Argentina soybeans Milei China sales, Trump tariff farmer bailout, AI nuclear power IEEE report, Trump mineral wars coal leases, Nord Stream pipeline sabotage Zaluzhny, Ukraine Tomahawk missile request Trump, Putin warns U.S. combatant, Chinese mafia Prato Italy fast fashion, Trump Gaza peace plan Hamas Qatar Turkey Egypt, China wind turbine blades Gobi Desert

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross was interviewed by Rich Brooks to debunk the myth that content marketing ends when you press publish. Together, they explore the essential strategies behind effective content distribution, including Ross's powerful framework: Repurpose, Remix, and Reshare. From leveraging AI tools like Distribution.ai to embracing video in B2B content strategy, this conversation is packed with actionable insights to help your content reach the audience it deserves. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The Real Work Starts After “Publish” - Publishing is not the final step—it's the starting line. - Measure not by how often you publish but by how many people you reach and engage. - Most content dies in obscurity because it's never distributed effectively. 2. What is Content Distribution, Really? - The process of ensuring your content is discovered by the right audience. - Requires deep audience and channel research to deliver content in the right format at the right place. - It's about strategy, not just amplification. 3. The Three R's Framework: Repurpose, Remix, Reshare - Repurpose: Turn one content asset (e.g. webinar) into blog posts, newsletters, eBooks. - Remix: Reformat – video into audio, cut clips for social media. - Reshare: Continuously circulate evergreen content; don't assume one post is enough. - Modernize and refresh content similar to how Disney reboots classic stories. 4. Should You Lead with Video, Audio, or Text? - Best: Video – it's the most repurposable and personal format, even in B2B. - Next: Audio – podcasting creates parasocial relationships and trust. - Last: Text – still valuable, but easier to fake and less engaging. - Embrace the format that aligns with your strength—but don't ignore video if you're serious about future visibility. 5. Using AI To Scale Content Distribution - AI is an accelerant: great marketers get greater, fast. - AI tools like Distribution.ai help apply your brand voice and create promotional content at scale. - Human review is still critical—AI is great, but human nuance still wins. 6. SEO Is Not Dead - "SEO is dead" is a myth. Search has evolved, not vanished. - Think beyond Google: people search on LinkedIn, Reddit, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram. - Optimize for discovery wherever your audience is searching.

Think military divorce means automatically splitting everythign 50/50 and going to court? Wrong on both counts! Certified Divorce Financial Anaylst David Smith reveals what most military families get wrong and what it costs them! In today's episode, we'll discuss the complex financial and logistical aspects of military divorce, covering everything from pension division to healthcare benefits, tax implications, and emotional support strategies. Key Topics Jurisdiction & Legal Considerations Multiple state options for filing (voting state, property ownership state, driver's license state, tax filing state) Importance of consulting with an attorney early to determine proper jurisdiction Each state has different rules, formulas, and processes JAG office can provide consultation but cannot represent service members in divorce proceedings Types of Divorce Processes Four main options: DIY without professionals, mediation, collaborative divorce, litigation Court is NOT the only option Out-of-court processes (mediation, collaborative) are often more cost-effective, private, and less stressful Consulting attorneys vs. representing attorneys - different roles and costs Military Pension Division Division is not the only option - can use offsetting with other assets Must determine what portion is "marital" vs. "separate" property Not all pension components are divisible (e.g., VA disability) Requires a Military Retirement Pay Division Order through DFAS Differences between active duty, reservist, and guard member pensions Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) Critical considerations: Only ONE SBP beneficiary can be named Previous spouses from earlier marriages may already occupy the "SBP chair" Premium costs must be negotiated Former spouse can be SBP beneficiary even without receiving pension payments Time-sensitive: Required forms must be submitted within specific timeframe or rights are lost Cannot be automatically transferred - requires proper paperwork TRICARE Benefits Courts CANNOT order TRICARE coverage - falls under federal rules Key rules: 20-20-20 (full benefits for life), 20-20-15 (transitional benefits) Based on: length of marriage, service member's creditable years, overlap period COBRA-like option available if don't meet other rules GI Bill Transfer Must be transferred WHILE married - cannot go to former spouse after divorce Service member can rescind the transfer Can be transferred to children as alternative Settlement agreement language is critical to protect this benefit Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) Multiple TSPs possible (civilian federal employee spouse, reservist who went active duty) Pre-tax and Roth portions have different tax consequences Must account for outstanding loans Requires Retirement Benefits Court Order (different from pension division order) Not always split - can use offset method with other assets Other Unique Military Assets to Consider Military leave - has monetary value on LES Credit card points and miles - can be worth $30,000-$40,000 USAA Subscriber Savings Account Pets - especially valuable show animals Life insurance policies Tax Implications Filing status changes Tax bracket shifts Capital gains considerations when dividing assets Pre-tax accounts (traditional IRA, 401k) vs. post-tax accounts have different real values Child tax credits and claiming dependents Early withdrawal penalties Marital vs. Separate Property Separate property: assets brought into marriage, inheritances, gifts (if kept separate and not commingled) Marital property: everything accumulated during marriage Characterization process is essential before division discussions Financial Mistakes to Avoid Making verbal agreements before completing full financial inventory Not understanding tax consequences of asset division Overlooking hidden assets (leave balance, points/miles, etc.) Rushing decisions - most divorce decisions have no do-overs Not considering pre-tax vs. post-tax asset values Misclassifying assets as marital or separate Practical First Steps Learn about all four divorce process options If abuse is present, seek legal counsel immediately Open credit card and bank account in your own name Create timeline of important dates and duty stations Gather supporting documents (tax returns, bank statements) in cloud storage Document account numbers, login credentials, passwords Consider consulting with CDFA before hiring representing attorney Supporting Someone Through Divorce Listen deeply and empathetically Avoid projecting your own divorce experience onto theirs Don't rush them into decisions Offer practical help (childcare, meals, house cleaning) Point them to resources (counselors, family services, professionals) Give them breathing room Key Takeaways Divorce in the military involves unique complexities beyond civilian divorces Court is not the only option - consider mediation or collaborative processes Complete financial inventory BEFORE making division decisions Everything accumulated during marriage is generally marital property Professional guidance (CDFA, attorney consultation) is an investment, not just a cost Most divorce decisions are final with no do-overs -

We slow down our study of this minor prophet to explore how Micah 6:1-8 helps us understand not only what God requires of us, but also to marvel at what God has done for us. In this poetic courtroom scene, we realize that what was at stake in the lives of God's people long ago is still an urgent matter for us today.

Speed & EfficiencyAI Underwriting:Processes applications in seconds to minutes.1.Can instantly pull data from multiple sources (credit reports, bank statements, income verification, property valuations, etc.).Ideal for high-volume, standardized cases.Human Underwriter:Takes hours to days, depending on complexity.Manually reviews documents, contacts third parties, and applies professional judgment.Slower, especially for complex or edge cases.2. Data HandlingAI:Uses algorithms and machine learning to analyze massive datasets.Can detect patterns humans might miss (e.g., spending behavior, alternative data like utility payments, even digital footprints in some markets).Human:Relies on traditional documentation (pay stubs, tax returns, appraisals).Limited by human bandwidth—can't process as much raw data at once.3. Consistency & BiasAI:Decisions are consistent with its rules and training data.However, if the data it's trained on is biased, the system can replicate or even amplify those biases.Human:Brings subjective judgment. Can weigh special circumstances that don't fit a neat rule.Risk of inconsistency—two underwriters might interpret the same file differently.May have unconscious bias, but also flexibility to override rigid criteria.4. Risk AssessmentAI:Excels at quantifiable risks (credit scores, loan-to-value ratios, historical claim data).Weak at unstructured or nuanced factors (e.g., a borrower with an unusual income stream, or a claim with unclear circumstances).Human:Strong at contextual judgment—understanding unique borrower situations, exceptions, or “gray areas.”Can pick up on red flags that an algorithm might miss (e.g., forged documents, conflicting information).5. Regulation & AccountabilityAI:Regulators are still catching up. Requires transparency in decision-making (explainable AI).Hard to appeal an AI decision if it can't explain its reasoning clearly.Human:Provides a clear chain of accountability—borrower can request explanations or escalate.Easier for compliance teams to audit decision-making.6. Cost & ScalabilityAI:Scales cheaply—one system can process thousands of applications simultaneously.Lower ongoing labor costs once implemented.Human:Labor-intensive, costs grow with volume.Better suited for complex, high-value, or unusual cases rather than mass processing.✅ Bottom line:AI underwriting is best for speed, scale, and straightforward cases.Human underwriters are best for nuanced judgment, exceptions, and handling edge cases.Most modern institutions use a hybrid model: AI handles the bulk of simple files, while humans step in for complex or flagged cases.tune in and learn https://www.ddamortgage.com/blogdidier malagies nmls#212566dda mortgage nmls#324329 Support the show

Pillars and Practices // Celebrating and Remembering Romans 12:15 (ESV)“Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep.” To Do this Requires a Willingness to Enter Intimacy and Connectedness. Philippians 4:12-13 (NIV)“I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NIV)“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.” Celebrating and Remembering Go Hand in Hand Psalm 103:1-18, 22 (NLT) A Psalm of DavidLet all that I am praise the Lord;with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. Let all that I am praise the Lord;may I never forget the good things he does for me. He forgives all my sinsand heals all my diseases. He redeems me from deathand crowns me with love and tender mercies. He fills my life with good things.My youth is renewed like the eagle's! The Lord gives righteousnessand justice to all who are treated unfairly. He revealed his character to Mosesand his deeds to the people of Israel. The Lord is compassionate and merciful,slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. He will not constantly accuse us,nor remain angry forever. He does not punish us for all our sins;he does not deal harshly with us, as we deserve. For his unfailing love toward those who fear himis as great as the height of the heavens above the earth. He has removed our sins as far from usas the east is from the west. The Lord is like a father to his children,tender and compassionate to those who fear him. For he knows how weak we are;he remembers we are only dust. Our days on earth are like grass;like wildflowers, we bloom and die. The wind blows, and we are gone—as though we had never been here. But the love of the Lord remains foreverwith those who fear him. His salvation extends to the children's children of those who are faithful to his covenant,of those who obey his commandments! Praise the Lord, everything he has created,everything in all his kingdom.Let all that I am praise the Lord.

Sunday Morning Service with Pastor Mike Shoaf
Never short sell an immeasurably more God.Never underestimate the power of a simple prayer offered on behalf of a complex situation.Never dismiss the impact of obedience (disobedience).Never be afraid of the repercussions of telling the truth in love. One of those repercussions is freedom.When in the dark always ask for more of God. You need Him more than answers, advice or direction.Change always requires change.A desire for change is common, actual change is elusive. Spiritual change always has spiritual opposition. Newton's Law of Motion #1 An object at rest will stay at rest, and an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction, unless acted upon by a net external force. Application: People tend to stay in the same spiritual and physical spot until the pain of staying exceeds the “pain” required in changing. On the positive side, spiritual momentum is also difficult to stop.Newton's Law of Motion #2 The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. Application: Surrender/Repentance is a powerful force and spiritual change requires it.Fallen man is not simply an imperfect creature who needs improvement: he is a rebel who must lay down his arms. C.S. Lewis.Newton's Law of Motion #3 For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Application: We pose the greatest threat to Satan's kingdom when we gain spiritual strength, a spiritual family and spiritual momentum. Salvation is the act of freedom and life. Sotiera & Sozo = Deliverance, rescue, freedom, wholeness. Acts 4:8-13 (NIV) 8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: “Rulers and elders of the people! 9 If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame and are being asked how he was healed, 10 then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. 11 Jesus is “‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.'(Psalm 118:22) 12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”13 When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.Salvation being found in no one else other than Jesus, is a non-starter in a relative truth culture. Salvation is the most inclusive offer known to mankind. Salvation has no racial, gender, political, economic or geographic or educational qualifications. BUT salvation has only one gate – Jesus. Sin is a separator, Jesus is a connector. John 3:16 (NIV) 16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Part of Satan's deception around salvation is, you don't deserve this and you will be rejected.Justification is a legal action of setting right. Romans 10:9,10 (NIV) 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.With our repentance, surrender and confession, we are cleansed (saved) of all of our sins and the sin barrier between us and God is gone – this is a loving fatherly act. God now declares us justified – in right legal standing, penalty of our sin paid, free! This is His Just Judge “side” of God. Love can't exist without challenge. Salvation = Changed Relationship Justification = Changed StatusSanctification is the act of setting apart. The Hebrew root for sanctification means “set apart” and “brightness”. The difference between salvation, justification and sanctification is we play a more integrated role in our sanctification. While God does all three, sanctification is an ongoing process that requires our cooperation and continual surrender. Sanctification is an ongoing process of change. 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 (NIV) As for other matters, brothers and sisters, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus. 3 It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable, 5 not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God; 6 and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister. The Lord will punish all those who commit such sins, as we told you and warned you before. 7 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 8 Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit.“how to live” points to an ongoing process. “more and more” is an ongoing advancement. Romans 7 & 8 deserves a slow readSalvation = Changed Relationship. Justification = Changed Status. Sanctification = Changed LivingRomans 12:1-2 (NIV) Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.The Process of Change…Respond in offering yourself in worship. Offer your whole selfThe more you hold onto yourself, the less you can hold onto God.Stop the conforming. Stopping Starves. Starved things die. Reject cultures attempt to squeeze you into their mold.Start the transforming. The fuel of spiritual transformation is spiritual mind renewal. The Word challenges and changes your thinking. The Truth of God's word is the only force strong enough for transformation. The best case for change is to hear/see and offer testimonies of change. Revelation 12:11(NIV) They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. Let's celebrate some triumphing with some testimony. John 11:43b-44 (NIV) 43 When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.”To exit death, you have to respond to Jesus' call to life. Once alive, ditch the dead stuff. Undeniable life comes with unavoidable backlash. Life QuestionsIs Jesus calling you out of a grave, today? Come forth!What dead stuff do you need to ditch? Ask for help and participate in stripping off the dead stuff that doesn't match the living God.Don't be afraid to live the life of Christ in dead circles. Everybody needs this life.

'When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have carried out the Lord 's instructions.” But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?” Saul answered, “The soldiers brought them from the Amalekites; they spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we totally destroyed the rest.” But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord ? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. ' 1 Samuel 15:13-15,22

At the Women Ignite Success Summit 2025 in Kingston, Jamaica, I was so honored to share what God had been doing in my life during that season. From the journey of motherhood to the deep wrestle of unanswered prayers, I've learned what it means to lay everything at His feet and allow Him to search my heart.In this message, I open up about surrender, obedience, forgiveness, and the miracle of God transforming us from the inside out. I share how His holiness has changed me, why intimacy with Him is the greatest miracle we can ever know, and what it truly means to give Him all of ourselves as a living sacrifice.If you've ever wrestled with control, struggled with letting go of bitterness, or longed for God to meet you in a deeper way, this message is for you.Share this with someone who needs the reminder that God isn't after just part of your heart, He's after all of it. And when you give Him everything, you will find freedom, healing, and joy in His presence.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Are we getting too self-focused in marriage? In this episode, we unpack the cultural messages that push hyper-individualism (“fill your cup first”) and show why great marriages are actually built on mutual care, not solo self-care. We talk about healthy vs. overcorrected boundaries, why prosocial actions (doing good for your partner) boost your own mood, how to shift from short-term impulses to a long-term family vision, and practical ways to “out-love” each other in daily life. What you'll learn from this episode: The trap of “me first” and how it quietly erodes connection Mutual care vs. self-care (and why you can't get to 100% alone) Boundaries that protect vs. boundaries that avoid A neuroscience-backed reason to give more (and feel better) How shared vision → shared sacrifice → shared joy Simple ways to prioritize your partner without losing yourself If this helped, drop a comment with your biggest takeaway, hit

In this podcast, Thomas Domville walks through Apple's new Adaptive Power mode in iOS, explaining what it does, which devices support it, what trade-offs to expect, and how to turn it on. You'll learn how the system uses on-device intelligence to detect unusually power-hungry apps or tasks and gently throttle performance to extend battery life—plus how this differs from the traditional Low Power Mode.What is Adaptive Power?An AI-assisted battery feature that watches for apps or tasks using more CPU/battery than usual and automatically makes performance adjustments (e.g., slightly dimming the display or allowing some activities to take longer) to reduce drain.It's conservative compared to Low Power Mode—only intervenes when something is actually hogging resources, so the phone behaves normally most of the time.Trade-offs: When Adaptive Power kicks in, you may notice subtle slowdowns (emails/messages can arrive a bit slower; animations feel slightly less snappy; display may dim a touch).Device support: Requires newer, AI-capable iPhone models (as referenced in the show).Key points & takeawaysSet-and-forget: Once enabled, it only activates when needed—otherwise your phone runs as usual.Notifications available: You can enable an Adaptive Power notification so you know when it's actively managing performance.Works alongside Low Power Mode: Low Power Mode remains the more aggressive option; Adaptive Power is a lighter-touch, smarter layer for everyday use.How to enable Adaptive PowerOpen Settings.Double Tap Battery.Double Tap Power Mode (near the bottom of the screen).Toggle Adaptive PowerOn.(Optional) Turn on Adaptive Power Notifications to be alerted when it activates.(Optional) Use Low Power Mode when you want a stronger, system-wide battery-saving profile (iOS will typically prompt you around 20% battery).VoiceOver tips (from the demo)In Settings, navigate by swiping right until you reach Battery, then double-tap.On the Battery screen, you can four-finger tap near the bottom to quickly reach elements closer to the end of the list, then flick left/right to Power Mode.Toggle Adaptive Power and Adaptive Power Notifications with a double-tap.When to use whichAdaptive Power: Daily driver—great for automatic, gentle savings without constantly changing how your phone feels.Low Power Mode: Use when you need maximum battery conservation (travel days, long events, low-battery emergencies).TranscriptDisclaimer: This transcript was generated by AI Note Taker – VoicePen, an AI-powered transcription app. It is not edited or formatted, and…
Crrow777 “The Calliope (meaning “beautiful-voiced”) crashed to the ground”. And through the decades, so did the complexity and higher-minded nature of what “music” once was, and could be again. Whether you pronounce her name Cal I-O-Pee, or Cally Ope, she was one of nine Muses, whose name was later applied to a steam-driven (gas) musical (more...)
