Pastor Jonathan Pyle.09-27-2026.PM
In this episode of The Systemic Way, we are joined by Dr Mairi Evans, Systemic Therapist, Social Worker and Clinical Director in the NHS, to explore autism, neurodivergence and the stories that shape how people are understood within families, services and wider society.Drawing on her doctoral research with mothers of autistic girls, Mairi explores the “aha moments” that can emerge through the diagnostic journey, and what changes once a diagnosis is given. We discuss the history and social construction of autism, the limitations of stereotypical and gendered understandings, and the difference between observed autism and the lived experience of being autistic.Mairi introduces the idea of “Oughtism” to explore the pressures placed on autistic people and their families to behave in particular ways. Through examples from family life, she considers how dominant ideas about what families “should” look like can create additional pressures, and how systemic therapists can help families develop their own ways of being together.The conversation also explores the relationship between autism and ADHD, the limitations of linear ideas of the spectrum, the double bind created by diagnosis and service systems, and the importance of holding both neurodivergence and the wider family context in mind.Throughout, Mairi brings together social constructionism, CMM and systemic thinking with a strong focus on lived experience. She argues for a shift away from seeing neurodivergence as specialist territory and towards making neuroinclusion “everybody's business”.We also consider what this might mean for systemic family therapy, including how curiosity, neuro-informed not-knowing, hypothesising and attention to family relationships can become part of everyday practice.A conversation about diagnosis, language, family life, service design and the possibilities for a more neuroinclusive systemic practice.Dr Mairi Evans is a Systemic Therapist and Social Worker with experience of working in social care, child and adolescent mental health, adult mental health, neurodevelopmental services and senior management in the NHS. Mairi has a professional doctorate in systemic practice, in which she focused on the diagnostic experience of autism for the mothers of autistic girls. Taking a social constructionist perspective and adopting the Co-ordinated Management of Meaning as a lens Mairi has explored the balance and relationship between co-constructed narratives (stories told) and lived experience (stories lived) for autistic people, their families and helping professionals. She has worked to connect theory to practice across health and social care organisations in order to promote connections, improve services and to reduce barriers to healthcare for autistic people and their families. As a Clinical Director in the NHS, Mairi has an interest in stories for change in wider NHS systems and the relationship between research narratives, commissioning decision makers, service providers and the individuals that seek support.Publications:Oughtism and Oughtistic Narratives in the Lives of Autistic People and their Families (gvsu.edu)Autism and Systemic Practice – Autism and Intersectionality: Implications for Systemic and Relational Psychotherapeutic Practice and Research (systemicautism.com)How do Mothers of Autistic Girls Perceive and Experience the Potential Affordances and Constraints of Diagnosis for their Daughters?

The Compendium Podcast: An Assembly of Fascinating and Intriguing Things
For 17 years, the Unabomber hid behind handmade bombs, false clues and the initials F.C. Then his need to explain himself gave the FBI the break it had been waiting for. Part Two turns from the bombing campaign to Ted Kaczynski himself. We trace the gifted, isolated child who entered Harvard at 16, the controversial psychological study led by Henry Murray, the anti-technology ideas that hardened into violent ideology, and the contradictions of his off-grid life in a tiny Montana cabin. When Industrial Society and Its Future was published, Ted's brother David recognised something chilling in its language. What followed was a covert investigation, an arrest built around a Forest Service ruse, a cabin packed with evidence and a legal battle over whether any of it could be used. Even with the case closing around him, Kaczynski fought the defence designed to save his life because it threatened the one thing he still wanted the world to respect: his ideas. Topics Included Ted Kaczynski's gifted but socially isolated childhood Henry Murray's controversial Harvard psychology study The private crisis Kaczynski called a turning point in his life Jacques Ellul and the roots of Kaczynski's anti-technology ideology The reality of living off-grid in the Montana cabin The manifesto and the linguistic clues that exposed him David Kaczynski's decision to contact the FBI The search warrant, mental-health dispute and guilty plea Resources and Further Reading Unabomber case history — FBI case archive and device timeline The Unabomber Case 25 Years Later — FBI account of the linguistic investigation Theodore Kaczynski Indicted in Sacramento — US Department of Justice indictment summary Unabomber Cabin — FBI artefact history and cabin evidence United States v.

Rodgers Responses – What did Aaron Rodgers say to the media today? ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Yet again, the Steelers are listing Joey Porter Jr. as ‘limited' in practice and not using the ‘back' as the reason. How is Peezy going to play this? Are both sides totally at fault here? Would it be smart for Porter to return to a game in which he has to face Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins? Poni wanted to feel better, so he flipped the conversation to what happened in Baltimore on Sunday – the Saints rallying from a multi-score deficit to beat the Ravens. Aditi was impressed by the Ravens, but said the Saints are definitely a team to look out for. What did Aditi make of the Aaron Rodgers shot taken at Mike McCarthy? Aditi pointed out that Brian Callahan has a relationship with Mason Rudolph, which could lead to the Giants calling the Steelers about a trade. Donny Football Debrief – What is Antonio Brown up to?

IntroductionThe episode opens with introductions of Dr. Jonas de Souza, Steve Martin, and Dr. Ben Wenner, who discuss their backgrounds and experiences in dairy nutrition. The panel outlines the key topics shaping modern dairy nutrition, including fresh cow management, nutrient utilization, amino acid balancing, and the industry's growing adoption of response-based nutrition models designed to improve biological and economic outcomes. (00:00 – 03:26)Fresh Cow Management in the Real WorldDrawing on both research and field experience, the panel discusses transition cow management, fresh pen logistics, cow flow, and the operational challenges producers face when trying to maintain intake and health during early lactation. The speakers emphasize that successful fresh cow programs depend on both sound nutrition and consistent management practices. (09:06 – 18:56)Why Academic Dairy Science Fails in Real-World OperationsOne of the most engaging conversations centers on the gap between controlled university research and commercial dairy production. The panel explains how labor, facilities, stocking density, cow comfort, and day-to-day management practices often influence outcomes as much as nutrition itself, reinforcing the need to translate research into practical, farm-ready recommendations. (09:06 – 16:06)Regional Differences in Dairy ManagementThe discussion explores how climate, labor availability, facility design, and production systems influence fresh cow performance across different regions. The speakers stress the importance of tailoring nutritional recommendations to each dairy rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. (18:56 – 24:06)Why Feeding Methionine to Fresh Dairy Cows Is So ComplicatedMethionine is one of the most studied amino acids in dairy nutrition, but applying recommendations in fresh cows remains challenging. The panel examines variable dry matter intake, energy balance, and the metabolic demands of early lactation that make amino acid balancing so complex. (16:11 – 24:04)Energy Supply, Fermentable Starch, and Dietary FatMuch of the discussion focuses on how energy drives production response. The panel discusses the relationship between fermentable starch, propionate production, nutrient partitioning, and milk production while examining how dietary fat and fatty acid profiles influence feed efficiency and performance. (24:06 – 31:39)Should You Feed Fat and Fatty Acids to Fresh Cows?The speakers evaluate the benefits and limitations of supplementing fat during the transition period, discussing how different fatty acid sources can impact energy balance, milk production, and fresh cow performance. (28:17 – 33:59)Amino Acids for Dairy Cows: Lysine, Methionine, or Histidine?As amino acid nutrition continues to evolve, the panel explores emerging research on amino acid balancing and discusses the roles of lysine, methionine, and histidine in supporting performance. Dr. de Souza reviews amino acid response models and essential amino acid targets while the panel shares practical perspectives from commercial dairy operations. (35:19 – 43:46)Response Curves, Digestibility, and Return on InvestmentThe conversation turns to nonlinear optimization, nutrient digestibility, response curves, and economic returns. The speakers explain how these tools can help nutritionists improve efficiency and profitability while making more informed feeding decisions. (42:07 – 55:14)The Surprising Truth About Palmitic Acid and Fiber DigestionThe panel explores how fatty acid profiles influence rumen function, fiber digestion, nutrient utilization, and production responses in high-producing dairy cows. The discussion highlights the complexity of balancing energy and fiber utilization while maximizing milk production and feed efficiency. (49:13 – 56:23)Final Insights and Future DirectionsThe discussion concludes with insights on body condition scoring, herd monitoring tools, tracer cows, protein sourcing, muscle mobilization, and the future of dairy nutrition. Dr. Jonas de Souza, Steve Martin, and Dr. Ben Wenner emphasize the importance of combining research findings with practical farm experience to maximize cow performance, feed efficiency, and profitability while continuing to refine amino acid and energy nutrition strategies for modern dairy herds.

@geoengineering1 interviews Claudia Elisabeth Wieners and Meike de Nooij about extratropical cyclones, the winter storm systems that drive much of the weather variability and many extreme wind and precipitation events in the midlatitudes, and how stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) could alter their tracks and associated weather extremes.They discuss what makes extratropical cyclones different from tropical cyclones, why SAI could affect storm tracks, and what their high-resolution modelling reveals about changes in the North Atlantic and North Pacific. The conversation explores why SAI is not simply an “undo button” for global warming, with regional shifts in storm tracks and different responses in precipitation and wind extremes even when global temperatures are brought closer to present-day levels.Claudia and Meike also discuss the uncertainties surrounding their findings, the need for further high-resolution modelling, and the broader challenges of assessing and governing SAI. They argue that governments and policymakers need to take SAI seriously by supporting rigorous research and considering how any future deployment should be carefully governed.Paper discussed: de Nooij, M., de Jong, J., Baatsen, M.

About our Guest: Mollie Campbell is a professional speaker, corporate trainer, and the Founder and CEO of Employers Against Domestic Abuse Alliance (The Alliance), a nationwide nonprofit organization dedicated to helping employers create workplaces where survivors of domestic abuse feel safe, seen, and supported. With more than 30 years of HR leadership experience spanning industries from healthcare to financial services, Mollie brings a rare combination of professional credibility and deeply personal insight to thetopic of domestic abuse in the workplace. As a survivor herself, she understands firsthand that the workplace can either be a lifeline for someone in crisis or a silent, complicit bystander. Through The Alliance's signature Safe Place Workplace Program, Mollie partners with employers to implement meaningful policy, train managers and HR professionals, and establish referral systems that connect employees with life-saving resources. Her work bridges the gap between HR policy and human compassion, making the business case for employer engagement while never losing sight of the individual lives at stake. Mollie was a speaker at the SHRM Annual Conference & Expo (Orlando, June 2026), the Oklahoma SHRM Annual State Conference (Tulsa, April 2026), and will be a speaker at the Southwest HR Conference (Fort Worth, October 2026), and the Arkansas SHRM HR Conference & Expo (Hot Springs, October 2026). She has also presented for a variety of professional associations, nonprofit organizations, and corporate audiences across the region. Her message is direct: domestic abuse costs U.S. employers $8.3 billion annually, and most affected employees never speak up because no one told them it was safe to. Mollie is on a mission to change that, one workplace at a time.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia. Today is Wednesday, Sept. 16, 2026. …and now for the rest of the stories…on today's daily304.com! #1 – From BUSINESS FACILITIES MAGAZINE – Why West Virginia? Business Facilities takes a closer look When companies decide where to invest, the questions are pretty straightforward: Is the site ready? Can we get the power? Can we find and keep the workforce? And can we get our product to market? Business Facilities recently put those questions to Christine Davies, Deputy Secretary of the West Virginia Division of Economic Development & Workforce Participation, for a national Q&A on the Mountain State's business advantages. Davies points to energy certainty, site readiness and workforce loyalty as key pieces of West Virginia's pitch. The state's targeted growth sectors include high-capacity data centers, advanced manufacturing and materials, and aerospace manufacturing and maintenance. Workforce programs include customized training grants, apprenticeship support and partnerships with West Virginia's community and technical colleges.

The resulting data are used by the Federal Reserve and others to better understand what's happening on Main Street. The West Virginia Small Business Development Center is a partner in this year's survey and is encouraging owners and key financial decision-makers of for-profit businesses to participate. Businesses currently operating, recently closed or preparing to launch can take part. Responses are confidential, and the survey takes about 12 minutes. Take the survey: https://fedreserveboard.gov1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_38k9xZy8ayEERue?orgID=20261020 #3 – From WV EXPLORER – Now THAT'S a big fish Tyler Harmon decided to take his son fishing on the Ohio River near Ravenswood and invited his father along. About 20 minutes after they started fishing, three generations of the Harmon family were sharing a boat with the heaviest blue catfish ever recorded in West Virginia. The fish weighed 72.75 pounds and measured 48.15 inches long, breaking a state weight record that had stood for less than four months. After the measurements, Harmon released the fish alive back into the Ohio River. There's an even bigger story behind the catch. Blue catfish had disappeared from West Virginia waters before the Division of Natural Resources began restoring the native species in the Ohio and Kanawha rivers in the early 2000s. Since then, the fishery has grown and state records have continued to fall.

Poni thinks Ben Roethlisberger should have a job as an analyst on CBS. We heard some comments from Aaron Rodgers after practice today. ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – We reacted in real time to the Steelers injury report, which included a new turn in the Joey Porter Jr. status. The Steelers listed Porter as ‘limited' with the note of ‘NIR/conditioning.' That tells everyone Porter is not hurt. How long can the Steelers claim Porter isn't conditioned enough to play? Aditi reminded us that in 2021, TJ Watt stepped on the field in Buffalo to start the season and was ready to go, which makes the conditioning aspect of this a little fishy. What is the Porter perception around the league? Aditi hasn't talked to Porter, so she can't say the price he is asking for. She has spoken to other teams, however, and none of them are jumping at the chance to trade for JPJ. Does Porter pass the eye test for other teams? How does this end? Could Porter bet on himself? We also reacted to Troy Fautanu not practicing today and Michael Pittman being limited. What are the rules with teams handling injuries? Aditi will be in Baltimore this weekend for Ravens-Saints and talked up Tyler Shough as a fun QB. Donny Football Debrief – There will be a Monday Night Football documentary centered around Dennis Miller, the Pittsburgh native and SNL star that joined the broadcast booth in the late 1990s.

Rodgers Responses – What did Aaron Rodgers say to the media today? 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Joey Porter Jr. was the only Steelers player listed on the injury report as a ‘limited' participant. Jeff said tomorrow is a bigger practice day because the team will be in pads. Jeff told us Porter took part in some individual drills today. How is the ramp-up period going for Porter as we get closer to Week 1? Jeff thinks the team is confident in Asante Samuel Jr. if he has to play substantial snaps on Sunday. Jeff expects Jaylen Warren to be the lead back, but Rico Dowdle will definitely see snaps. Jeff wouldn't be surprised if Germie Bernard overtakes Roman Wilson as WR3 sooner rather than later. Even though it goes against what Mike McCarthy has done historically, he thinks the Steelers will have more of a 2 TE offense. Jeff sees Jalen Ramsey moving all over the field. How much will Keeanu Benton play after his contract extension? Jeff feels like we will see a lot of the 3 edge rushers on the field at the same time. Will Eli Heidenreich get a helmet? Jeff has the Steelers finishing 9-8, but sneaking into the playoffs as the 7-seed. Donny Football Debrief – A fun draft before we kickoff the NFL season.
BUFFALO, NY – September 9, 2026 – A new #review was #published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on September 8, 2026, titled “Re-expression of MHC-I to treat CNS cancers.” The review examines emerging strategies to restore major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) expression in cancers of the central nervous system (CNS), with the goal of making these tumors more visible and vulnerable to immune attack. The review was authored by Arseniy E. Yuzhalin from the Sirius University of Science and Technology in Sochi, Russia. Malignant central nervous system (CNS) tumors such as glioblastoma and brain metastases are often immunologically “cold,” with limited T-cell infiltration and poor responses to immune checkpoint therapy. One important mechanism of immune escape is the reduction or loss of major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I), which normally displays tumor-associated antigens to cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. When MHC-I expression falls, cancer cells become less visible to immune surveillance. The review examines several strategies for restoring MHC-I expression. Epigenetic therapies, including histone deacetylase and DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, could potentially reverse epigenetic silencing of MHC-I genes, although blood-brain barrier penetration remains a major limitation in CNS cancers. A more direct approach could use adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors to deliver patient-specific HLA-A, HLA-B, or HLA-C genes or transcription factors such as NLRC5 that promote MHC-I expression. However, efficient tumor targeting, gene delivery, and control of the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment remain unresolved challenges. The review also highlights PCSK9 inhibition as a clinically relevant strategy. PCSK9 can promote MHC-I degradation, and a recent surgical-window trial tested the cholesterol-lowering drug evolocumab in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent glioma. A single preoperative dose showed measurable blood-brain barrier penetration, and tumors with higher drug concentrations displayed increased surface MHC-I expression, greater CD8+ T-cell infiltration, and enhanced cytotoxic activity. These findings provide proof-of-mechanism, although drug delivery into the brain remains a limiting factor.

Guest: Dr. Martin Prlic is a Professor in the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Division at Fred Hutch Cancer Center. He discusses the challenges of studying human immunology and how his lab uses advanced single-cell technologies to understand T cell responses across healthy, inflamed, and tumor tissues. He also explores the biology of tissue-resident T cells, how inflammation shapes their function, and immune cell interactions at the maternal-fetal interface.

Find high-quality antibodies and integrate them into your workflow! The Immunology Science Round Up lncRNA Regulates Gut Immunity – An IBD-associated long noncoding RNA promotes immune tolerance by enhancing regulatory T cell function and limiting inflammatory T cell responses. Trust in Research Antibodies – An investigation identified nearly 19,000 apparently manipulated antibody validation images across products sold by 15 research antibody vendors. Targeting Melanoma with mRNA – A Phase III trial found that a personalized mRNA neoantigen therapy combined with KEYTRUDA improved recurrence-free and distant metastasis-free survival compared with KEYTRUDA alone after melanoma surgery. Beyond Shingles Prevention – A recombinant shingles vaccine was associated with a lower long-term risk of several cardiovascular outcomes, supporting further studies of its potential cardioprotective effects. Engineering Myeloid Immunotherapy – Expandable granulocyte-monocyte progenitors provide a scalable platform for engineering macrophages that can target blood and solid tumors. CAR T Cells Meet Glioblastoma – Responses to CAR T cell therapy for glioblastoma are associated with the surrounding immune environment, with NK cells linked to response and regulatory T cells and suppressive myeloid cells linked to resistance.

According to reports, 33 ministers have been killed in Iran and hundreds detained or imprisoned. The church is emerging faithful while persecuted in Iran. Meanwhile, funds that were cut from USAID are now being offered to Christian organizations to help 2,500 hospitals and clinics in 12 countries, and other humanitarian needs will be managed with their oversight. Why? We look at the history of USAID, the fraud, and why Christians engaged in practical service are trusted.

Rodgers' Responses – What did Aaron Rodgers say to the media today? ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Aditi doesn't believe Joey Porter Jr. sitting out games would make the Steelers change their tradition of not negotiating contracts in-season. Aditi recalled what happened with Chris Jones and the Chiefs a few years ago. Aditi told us she will be doing Jets-Titans in Week 1. Aditi said there has to a showing of good faith from Porter to start the ball rolling on contract talks. Aditi was surprised by Elandon Roberts being cut because of what he brings to the locker room more than anything else. Did Aditi have any thoughts on Daejon Love, the guy that faked being a member of the 49ers and swindled several women out of money. Donny Football Debrief – We are ONE week away from the NFL kickoff.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we're switching gears a little. Instead of pitching yourself as a freelancer to land clients, we're talking about PR pitching, how to get your ideas, your expertise, and your story in front of journalists and media outlets.As a nurse writer, you're not just selling writing. You're building a personal brand and positioning yourself as an expert. Getting quoted in an article or featured in the media strengthens your portfolio and gives you something powerful to share on LinkedIn and across your website. It puts you in front of potential clients too.Pitching a journalist and pitching a potential client actually have a lot in common. You need to know exactly who you're talking to, give them a reason to care, make your value clear, and get past the fear of hitting send.My guest today is Zach Schleien, a fractional CMO, entrepreneur, and founder of Press Pitch AI. We talk about how to pitch yourself and your expertise, get noticed, and use PR as another tool for building authority as a freelance nurse writer.

Gestalt Language Processing (GLP) and Natural Language Acquisition (NLA) have become extraordinarily popular in speech-language pathology, particularly in conversations about autistic children who use echolalia. But what exactly is a "Gestalt Language Processor?" How would we know if someone is one? And perhaps most importantly, what does the research actually tell us about the claims and treatment recommendations associated with GLP and NLA? In this episode, I'm joined by speech-language pathologist Kathleen Oppenheimer, who has spent considerable time examining these questions through the lens of language science and psycholinguistics. Kathleen describes how she first encountered GLP and NLA on social media during the pandemic and why some of the claims she encountered immediately raised questions for her as someone trained in linguistics. We unpack the distinction between language production and language processing, and discuss why observing the words and phrases a child says cannot necessarily tell us how that child is processing language. We also explore an important nuance in this debate: Many practices commonly associated with NLA are quite reasonable—and in some cases very well aligned with established, evidence-based approaches. Following the child's lead, building strong therapeutic relationships, recognizing echolalia as meaningful communication, and honoring multiple forms of communication are all valuable practices. But those practices aren't unique to NLA. Kathleen contrasts NLA recommendations with research-supported approaches such as Enhanced Milieu Teaching, and explains why recommendations involving prompting, single-word models, verbs, and grammatical language input matter for language development. Along the way, we discuss: What GLP and NLA actually claim about language development. Why defining and reliably identifying a "Gestalt Language Processor" is more difficult than social media might suggest. The difference between what a child says and how researchers determine what a child is actually processing. What psycholinguistic methods such as the visual world paradigm can tell us about real-time language comprehension. Why echolalia can be meaningful communication without accepting the larger GLP/NLA framework. The substantial areas of common ground between NLA proponents and research-aligned language interventions. Why following a child's lead and honoring their communication does not require adopting NLA stages. How Enhanced Milieu Teaching differs from NLA-based intervention. Concerns about recommendations to avoid or delay modeling single words, verbs, and certain grammatical forms. What we know—and don't know—about the empirical evidence supporting GLP/NLA. How social media can turn nuanced clinical ideas into much broader claims. The potential costs of implementing unsupported interventions, even when those interventions appear benign. How clinicians can have productive conversations with colleagues and families who have embraced GLP/NLA. Why clear, jargon-free explanations of what we're doing in therapy—and why we're doing it—matter. One thing I especially appreciated about this conversation is that Kathleen doesn't approach this as a simple choice between being "for" or "against" GLP/NLA. Instead, she encourages us to pull apart the individual claims and practices, retain the components that are supported by evidence, and scrutinize those that aren't. For clinicians navigating an increasingly complicated landscape of research, social media, and rapidly spreading treatment approaches, I think that's an incredibly useful framework.
