Send us Fan MailPart Four of Buffalo Days details the intense encounters between the U.S. Army and 400 Native Americans and a regiment of "Buffalo Soldiers"—and the resilient Indigenous warriors of the Great Plains.The section also features a memorable account from Jim White, who shared a campfire story about the harsh realities of life on the plains. White's tale illustrated the unpredictable nature of the landscape and the constant threat to survival, grounding the historical military engagements in the personal, often harrowing experiences of those living through the era. This anecdote provides a humanizing perspective, contrasting the formal military history of the Buffalo Soldiers with the rugged, everyday existence of scouts and settlers in the American West.Support the showIf you'd like to buy one or more of our fully illustrated dime novel publications, you can click the link I've included. 

Here is the MIST study Courtney referenced; ⁠⁠Intranasal Treatments for Children With Sleep-Disordered Breathing: The MIST+ Randomized Clinical Trial | Trials | JAMA Pediatrics | JAMA Network⁠⁠The MIST (Medical vs Interventional Steroid for Sleep-Disordered Breathing) and MIST+ studies, conducted by researchers at the Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) and Monash University in Australia, investigated simple saline (salt water) nasal sprays as a first-line treatment for children with obstructive sleep-disordered breathing. Key FindingsSurgery-Sparing Solution: The trials found that nearly one in three (29.5%) children aged 3–12 improved with a saline spray alone, with their snoring and breathing symptoms completely resolving. Saline vs Steroids: The MIST studies discovered that a simple 0.9% saline nasal spray was just as effective as an anti-inflammatory steroid nasal spray in reducing symptoms. Reduced Need for Surgery: After 12 weeks of use, symptoms had resolved in half (50%) of the study cohort, potentially halving the number of children needing tonsil or adenoid removal surgery. Safe for Daily Use: Saline sprays and rinses are a safe, low-cost, and non-pharmacological treatment.Water Safety: If you or your child are preparing your own saline rinses at home (using a Neti pot or squeeze bottle), always use distilled, sterile, or previously boiled and cooled tap water to prevent dangerous infections.How They WorkSaline nasal sprays and rinses alleviate nasal congestion by mechanically flushing out allergens, irritants, and excess mucus. They also help to reduce inflammation in the nasal passages and improve the function of the respiratory mucosa. Safety & RecommendationsLink to T&A Natural Solutions Toolkit: ⁠⁠Tonsil & Adenoid Toolkit – Natural Relief & Airway Support⁠⁠Facebook Group for Parents: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1LScNKt1V1/⁠⁠Courtney's practice ⁠⁠https://www.functionalfaceomt.com⁠⁠Courtney's Facebook ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/functionalface.omt/⁠⁠Courtney's Instagram ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/functionalface/⁠⁠Dr Mahony's practice⁠⁠ https://www.fullfaceorthodontics.com.au⁠⁠Dr Mahony's Instagram ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/fullfaceorthodontics/⁠⁠Dr Mahony's Book ⁠⁠https://amzn.asia/d/04fBdCQM⁠⁠Dr Mahony's Australian Tour, where he is speaking to patrents, teachers, allied health professionals and doctors, on how to recognise early sign of sleep disorders in children, as well as how and when to intervene ⁠⁠https://www.derekmahony.com/events⁠⁠

Babies survive abortion every single day, and Robin Sertell is a living, breathing testimony. She survived not just one, but three, saline-infusion abortion attempts in the 1970s. In utero, the procedures that repeatedly tried to end her life failed, but they caused great health challenges for her during her childhood. Later, at just nine years old, she discovered that her mother had tried to abort her multiple times, but couldn't even process what her grandmother revealed to her. After years of ups and downs, Robin was able to forgive her mother for all of the abortion attempts, and today, Robin is a speaker, author, and founder and president of Montanans for Life. Her story highlights the gritty and uncomfortable truths about abortion and its devastating impact on human lives, along with the hope that more people will find forgiveness and become pro-life advocates. TAKEAWAYS The saline burns from the abortion attempts damaged Robin's newborn body and caused many problems during childhood There are thousands of abortion survivors in America today Robin was able to forgive her mother in her 20s, while pregnant with her own baby Roe v. Wade became the law of the land in 1973 and notably, Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022

As Michigan communities debate whether to welcome hyperscale data centers, the Research Council's #FactsMatter podcast sat down with Research Associate Eric Paul Dennis to unpack the facts behind the controversy. The discussion focused on Eric's recent paper, Data Centers in Michigan: Evaluation of Policy Controversies Regarding Hyperscale Data Center Development, which separates emotion from evidence and clarifies what these massive facilities mean for local economies, utilities, and residents. What Data Centers Are — and Why They're Suddenly Controversial Data centers have existed for decades, quietly powering email, websites, banking, and business operations. What's changed is scale. New AI-driven hyperscale centers are far larger, consume far more electricity, and are tied to technologies that already make many people uneasy. Dennis emphasized that concerns about AI and data centers should be treated separately: blocking a data center in Michigan will not slow the global development of AI. Economic Benefits: Big Construction Impact, Modest Long‑Term Jobs Hyperscale projects bring a surge of construction activity, often employing thousands of workers at premium wages. But once built, these facilities typically support only about 100 permanent jobs, far fewer than traditional manufacturing plants. Where they have the most lasting impact is in local tax revenue. In places like Saline Township, a single data center could more than double the township's property tax revenue, even with exemptions, while occupying only about 1% of the land. Communities often negotiate additional benefits, such as recreation funding, fire services, and farmland preservation. Electricity Demand: Huge Loads, But Not Necessarily Higher Rates A hyperscale center can draw 1–1.4 gigawatts—roughly the electricity used by one million people. Despite the eye-popping number, Dennis explained that these facilities connect directly to the regional transmission grid, not the local distribution system that serves homes. Michigan currently has excess generation capacity, and adding a large, steady customer can improve system efficiency. While parts of Virginia and Ohio saw temporary rate increases tied to rapid data-center growth, Michigan's grid operator has already adjusted its market rules, and recent capacity prices here have declined, not risen. Water Use: Highly Variable, Often Minimal Water use depends entirely on the cooling technology used. Many modern hyperscale centers, including the proposed Saline facility, use closed-loop cooling, which uses little water, like that of an office building. Older or different designs that use evaporative cooling can require millions of gallons per day, but such systems are becoming less common.

Chris Holman welcomes Kelley Kuhn, President & CEO, Michigan Nonprofit Association, Saline, MI. Welcome Kelley, remind the Michigan business community about MNA? Many people think of nonprofits as service organizations, but this new report focuses on economic impact. What should Michigan business leaders understand about the nonprofit sector's role in the state's economy? Nonprofits often work alongside government and the private sector. How do strong public-private partnerships help communities grow while also supporting economic development and workforce needs? The report highlights concerns about government shifting responsibilities to nonprofits without fully funding them. What challenges does that create, and why should the business community care? Volunteerism, charitable giving, and civic engagement are major themes in your policy work. How do those activities contribute to stronger local economies and healthier business environments? Looking ahead, what policy changes or investments would have the greatest impact on helping Michigan's nonprofit sector continue serving communities while also strengthening the state's economic competitiveness? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ The Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) asked Public Sector Consultants (PSC) to study and highlight the economic impact of nonprofits in Michigan. The new report finds that nonprofits play a key role in the state's well-being by providing important services like health care, education, human services, and the arts. They exist to help people and communities, not to make a profit. In addition to these services, nonprofits also support the economy by creating jobs, buying goods and services, and bringing in outside funding. This report shares data that shows just how important nonprofits are to Michigan's economy.

These MAGA Republicans claim they're "manly men," but they're really just insecure little Beta men. Pat talks about how whenever he shares social media posts about Michigan progressive Democratic Senate candidate, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, he gets bombarded by a rush of racist and Islamophobic comments by MAGA voters. But they're following MAGA Republicans in Congress, who have no issue spewing their hatred and racism against Arab-Americans. And a Michigan Republican voted with Democrats to end the Trump Regime's, and Israel's, War on Iran. 9:58-31:00: Line 5 Jeffrey Insko InterviewDr. Jeffrey Insko of The Current returns to the show as he shares some of the latest news surrounding the fight to close the Line 5 oil pipeline under the Straits of Mackinac. They also discuss how Line 5 has negatively impacted Michigan's environment and public health. And they cover how the Trump Regime is working with the Canadian owner of Line 5 to keep it open for years to come. 31:03-46:01: Whitmer & Data CentersIn this week's "Last Call," Pat gives his take on Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer's decision to heartily embrace hyper-scale data centers in Michigan. Gov. Whitmer declares the huge data center in Saline Twp. will be a long-term victory for Michigan. However, many working class Michiganders, as well as many Lansing Democrats, believe lining-up with the billionaire tech bro authoritarians will hurt Michigan in a number of ways. 46:01-48:24: EndingPlease, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can!leftoflansing@gmail.comLeft of Lansing is now on YouTube as well!Music provided by Wanderbeats.

Join Kate Stanton Melendez for an interview with local artist Isak Dove.    Isak Dove is a self-taught artist b. 1983 Saline, MI, currently based out of Savannah, GA. Most recently her work has been exhibited locally at Gallery 2424 and ARTS Southeast, and internationally at the Zurich Hochshule der Kunst (2025) and Material Gallery (2024) in Zurich, Switzerland.    An avid traveler, Dove often combines her love of journeying the world and her passion for making art, bringing her paints and brushes with her as she travels the globe. In 2024 she spent six weeks alone in the Peruvian countryside, painting fruits and the mountains. In 2018 she was a resident artist at the fantastical Helga's Folly in Kandy, Sri Lanka, and painted in the jungle alongside mischievous monkeys for a month. In 2012 she converted an old broken-down milk truck into a little studio - in an olive grove where the goats roamed, in a desert in the Middle East. That's where she alchemized the first "Goat Girl" into being (a character that appears in many of Dove's paintings).    These days Dove can most often be found locally, live painting in the beautiful Forsyth Park in downtown Savannah. She also dabbles in curating group shows, such as "The Surreal Soiree: A Group Show of Fantastical, Strange, and Uncanny Artworks", opening this week in the Cobra Room of Lone Wolf Lounge. The show features 25 local artists, & opens this Friday, June 5th from 5PM-10PM, as part of First Fridays in Starland.      See more of Isak Dove's work here:  https://www.instagram.com/isak_dove http://www.isakdove.com/paintings.html

The Space Show Presents Virtual Moon With Manny Pimenta & Philippe van NederveldeQuick Summary:This was a Space Show program featuring Manny Pimenta and Philip van Nedervelde presenting their Virtual Moon project, which aims to create a digital twin of the lunar surface for immersive virtual reality experiences. Manny explained that Virtual Moon began as Lunar Explorer over 20 years ago but was ahead of its time when consumer VR hardware wasn't available. The current project uses NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter data as its foundation and includes a working Apollo 11 landing simulation that can be experienced on VR headsets like Quest 2 and 3. Philip detailed their technical approach, which involves using AI and generative adversarial networks to upscale the LRO data to higher resolution and create photorealistic lunar terrain. The team demonstrated live reactions from users experiencing the VR simulation and discussed their plans for “One Giant Leap,” a new product release featuring multiple Apollo 11 mission vignettes including Armstrong's first steps on the moon and the lunar module's ascent. They also revealed their concept for “Selene City,” a large-scale lunar habitat designed to accommodate 5,000 people by 2045, which would serve as both an engineering simulation and potential resort destination. The discussion covered technical challenges including real-time rendering requirements and how they plan to address issues like unlit craters and lava tubes through lighting systems and future data upgrades.Detailed :SummaryThe meeting focused on demonstrating Virtual Moon, a virtual reality project that creates immersive lunar experiences. Manny introduced the project's history, explaining that it evolved from Lunar Explorer, which was created over 20 years ago when consumer VR hardware wasn't available. Philippe detailed the technical approach, describing how they use NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter data as a foundation and plan to enhance it using AI and generative adversarial networks to achieve higher resolution and accuracy comparable to Apollo mission photographs. The team encountered technical difficulties with screen sharing during the demonstration, preventing them from showing the actual VR content to the audience.Manny explained that Virtual Moon offers users the opportunity to own a piece of virtual lunar property, starting with 100 square meters free, with additional property available for purchase. He announced the upcoming release of the “One Giant Leap” Apollo 11 VR experience, priced at $15, with a $10 pre-order that includes 2,000 square meters of Virtual Moon property as a special promotion. Philippe clarified that the experience will be web-delivered and compatible with various VR headsets including Quest models and Pico headsets, with plans for a multi-user metaverse version of Virtual Moon.Philippe explained how the virtual moon mapping system will handle dark craters by using virtual headlights to illuminate elevation data, and mentioned that the system will be updatable with higher resolution data from other space agencies. He described a planned collaboration with a company developing an unmanned mission to explore lava tubes at Lacus Mortis, where robots equipped with lidar would provide real-time 3D scans that would be integrated into the virtual moon system. The team also discussed their existing Apollo 11 VR landing experience, which recreates the actual landing trajectory and maneuvers using historical telemetry data, and Dr. Kothari expressed interest in potentially using similar virtual mission simulations for his own lunar landing system designs.Manny and Philippe discussed plans for Virtual Moon, which will include a complete recreation of all moon missions with photorealistic 3D animations, serving both space enthusiasts and the professional space industry for mission planning and troubleshooting. They outlined future features including games like lunar racing and treasure hunts, as well as potential revenue streams from Hollywood studios using virtual lunar terrain for movie sets. The team is working on a new automated website version and has already received interest from potential investors including Dr. Kothari, with plans to expand to other celestial bodies like Mars in the future.The team demonstrated virtual reality experiences of the moon using Quest headsets, including a simulation of the Apollo 11 landing and a construction site on Malapert Mountain. Manny explained the concept of Saline, a planned large-scale lunar city designed to accommodate 5,000 people by 2045, which will serve as both a resort destination and an engineering simulation to prove the feasibility of building such a city. Dr. suggested connecting this plan with NASA's lunar base development timeline, particularly with Carlos Galan Garcia's work on lunar base phases, and Manny agreed to reach out to him for collaboration.Manny discussed the Virtual Moon project and announced the upcoming “One Giant Leap” release, which will build on the existing Apollo 11 VR landing experience with improved visual quality and additional content including a vignette of Neil Armstrong's first steps on the moon, a mini-game for landing the lunar module, and interactive laser experiments. Philippe provided details about the new features, explaining that users can experience the Apollo 11 landing, see the first steps on the moon through different viewpoints, attempt to land the Eagle, watch the historic rocket launch, and explore Tranquility Base as it would appear today. John Jossy suggested connecting with GRU space, a startup working on lunar hotels, as a potential collaboration opportunity.Philippe explained the technical aspects of simulating laser beams and real-time rendering in their Virtual Moon project, clarifying that they use pre-computed graphics played back as loops rather than performing physics calculations in real time. Manny discussed their Virtual Moon Ambassador program and plans for permanent exhibits in science museums, while also announcing upcoming newsletter updates and promotional opportunities including property ownership and VR headset pre-orders. The team addressed questions about language support, with Philippe confirming plans to implement support for 125 or more languages using AI, and discussed potential collaboration opportunities with Dr. Kothari and Philip Swan regarding mass driver concepts and Falcon Heavy simulations.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentNo program for Sunday, May 10, 2026 PT Due to Mothers Day.Guests: Dr. David LivingstonOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

Man convicted of making up 'disgusting' crime about Bloomfield Twp. official Saline native, MSU prof takes up 'Jeopardy!' challenge this week Ford stock surges as Morgan Stanley backs new battery storage venture

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: There has long been many questions about which IV fluid is best for ED resuscitation Multiple adult studies have shown no clear benefit of balanced fluid vs normal saline A large pediatric randomized clinical trial published in April compared balanced fluid vs normal saline in children with septic shock  The study included about 9,000 patients from 47 emergency departments in five countries Patients with septic shock were randomized to receive either balanced fluid or normal saline The primary outcome was adverse kidney event (death, dialysis, or persistent kidney dysfunction) at 30 days or hospital discharge Results showed no difference in any safety outcomes and no adverse events occurred The key takeaway is that early fluid resuscitation matters more than which crystalloid you choose   References Balamuth F, Weiss SL, Long E, et al.

Managing Dry Saline Land: Insights from the MSF Research Updates In this episode of the MSF Farm Talk podcast, Chris McDonough shares practical insights from a recent MSF Mallee Research Update in Victoria, exploring how growers can better manage dry saline land and improve crop establishment in challenging conditions. Chris explains how transient subsoil salinity can move to the soil surface during dry periods through capillary rise and evaporation, often making the top 5 cm significantly more saline than the layers below. The episode also unpacks how salinity impacts crops through osmotic stress and toxicity, reducing germination, emergence and plant survival. The discussion focuses on practical management strategies aimed at improving establishment and maintaining ground cover, including: Retaining surface cover such as straw or mulch Using opportunistic rainfall events to aid establishment Avoiding practices that bring saline clay to the surface Considering more salt-tolerant crop varieties This episode provides growers and advisers with practical considerations for protecting soil surfaces, improving resilience and managing productivity on saline-prone soils. Explore the Dry Saline Land project pages to learn more about identifying dry saline land, best-practice management approaches, and grower case studies.

Saline Township officials are now at the center of a growing recall movement tied to data centers. WWJ's Tony Ortiz and Tracey McCaskill have the afternoon's top news stories.

BUFFALO, NY — April 7, 2026 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 18 of Aging-US on March 26, 2026, titled “Effects of intravenous furosemide plus small-volume hypertonic saline solutions on inflammatory, remodelling markers and epigenetics signatures of patients with congestive acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF).” Led by first author Mario Daidone from University Hospital, Policlinico, Paolo Giaccone, and the University of Palermo, with corresponding author Antonino Tuttolomondo from University Hospital, Policlinico, Paolo Giaccone, and University of Palermo, the randomized trial compared i.v. furosemide plus small-volume hypertonic saline solution (HSS) with i.v. furosemide alone in patients with acute decompensated heart failure due to reduced ejection fraction. The study enrolled 200 subjects, randomly assigning 107 to furosemide plus HSS and 93 to furosemide alone. The authors found that patients treated with i.v. furosemide plus HSS showed lower increases in inflammatory and remodeling biomarkers after saline load, including IL-6, hsTnT, sST2, galectin-3, and NT-proBNP, and the intervention was associated with reduced miR181b expression compared with furosemide alone. These findings suggest that adding small-volume hypertonic saline to loop diuretic therapy may influence both circulating biomarkers and miRNA-related epigenetic signatures in acute heart failure. “Nevertheless, the possible effects of the i.v. furosemide + HSS treatment on natriuretic and inflammatory markers of heart failure deserve further confirmation, whereas the effects of this type of treatment on epigenetic signatures of pathologic mechanisms involved in the left ventricular dysfunction involved in AHF pathogenesis seem to be still not studied.” The authors note that this was a randomized trial in a specific ADHF population, so additional studies will be needed to confirm the durability of the biomarker changes, define the optimal patient groups, and determine whether these molecular effects translate into improved clinical outcomes. Future work may also clarify how the saline strategy interacts with cardiac remodeling and miRNA regulation in larger and more diverse heart failure cohorts.

So. It appears that we are missing an ENTIRE MONTH OF RECORDINGS. So quick recap. We returned to lady Valina and attended a party, Thotchke took Valina as a date, Daniel took Saline, and Tiwa took hobo Bryan. After the party we met up with Thorn and he sent us on a mission to steal documents from Minister Anket, but the fault may steal our memories.

If you've ever spent an entire day performing a version of yourself that felt nothing like the real you — holding it together at work, seeming calm when you're not, passing as organized — you already know something about masking. But knowing it and understanding it are two different things. Dr. Sharon Saline returns to help Pete and Nikki unpack what masking actually is: hiding traits, suppressing impulses, and overcompensating to appear more polished than you feel. It's a coping mechanism that can be useful, but for adults with ADHD, chronic masking carries real costs — increased anxiety, emotional exhaustion, a growing disconnect between who you show the world and who you actually are.One of the most important distinctions in this conversation is the difference between masking and presentation. We all show up differently in different contexts — there's a version of you at work, with close friends, with your partner. That's not masking; that's healthy. Masking is specifically about hiding, about a core sense of deficiency that says if people see the real me, they'll reject me. Sharon traces this directly to the social anxiety spectrum — and to the RSD, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome that so many with ADHD know intimately.So what does it look like in practice? Saying yes when you mean no. Staying quiet when you have something to say. Overpreparing to look like you know everything so no one discovers you feel like you know nothing. And at work, pretending you have it all under control when you're drowning — rather than simply asking for what you need. Sharon draws a crucial line between protective masking (I will never feel safe here) and productive masking (I don't feel comfortable yet) — and that distinction is where the path forward starts to open up.Lowering the mask isn't about tearing it off all at once. It's about identifying the patterns — the people and places where you've felt safe before — and using those as your guide. It's about noticing the physical sensation of safety when it shows up, and recognizing that you deserve spaces in your life where you don't have to perform in order to belong. Sharon also reminds us that for AuDHD people especially, masking has often been an essential survival tool, and that owning your challenges with honesty — and even humor — is ultimately far less exhausting than the alternative.Links & NotesDr. Sharon Saline — drsharonsaline.comSupport the Show on PatreonDig into the podcast Shownotes Database (00:00) - Welcome to Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast (01:58) - When Masking is a Strategy (03:18) - What is Masking? ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Welcome to Season 15 Episode 9 of the ParentingAces Podcast! This week, Lisa is joined by Tennis Parent and Entrepreneur, Jeremy Saline, to discuss the impetus behind On The RISE Tennis.Jeremy is the father of 4 children, the oldest of whom has fallen in love with tennis. As his daughter started improving and expressing the desire to play at higher and higher levels, Jeremy - like many of us - was hit by the rising costs associated with her development. He started projecting those costs over her remaining junior tennis years and realized the current model just isn't sustainable for most families out there."What if," he thought, "there were a way to bring junior players together as a team and share some of those costs? What if we could attract sponsors and donors to offset some of the expense?" And he got to work creating On The RISE Tennis.Jeremy applied for 501(c)3 status, pulled together a board made up of people in the tennis and non-profit worlds, and got to work.On the RISE Tennis identifies and nurtures junior athletes with the potential to compete at the highest levels. Its mission goes beyond the court, using tennis to teach discipline, self-confidence, resilience, leadership, and integrity through the RISE Individual Performance Program.The organization is committed to shaping well-rounded individuals by:Encouraging high-quality training and competitive opportunities to enhance tennis skillsPromoting the pursuit of strong academic achievementDeveloping leadership skills and building confidence both on and off the courtFostering a spirit of service and encouraging athletes to positively impact their communitiesCultivating the TEAM RISE culture, where athletes support one another and grow togetherIf you are interested in learning more about On The RISE Tennis and/or if your player would like to apply to be part of Team RISE, you can reach out to Jeremy at info@ontherisetennis.org. If you would like to support his efforts through a financial donation, you can do so via this link.

Some people do their best thinking on a walk. Me? I do my best thinking in the shower.   So I was thinking in the shower about how "The Most Interesting Man in the World" is back — yes, that guy, Jonathan Goldsmith, returning as the Dos Equis spokesperson after a ten-year hiatus, now with a funny "amnesia" twist and a whole lot of nostalgia. And while I do appreciate a sexy, wise older gentleman with an open collar and a "stay thirsty, my friends" vibe, my shower thoughts flowed to this thought: "Okay… but where is the campaign for "The Most Interesting WOMAN in the World?" Who the heck is SHE?  Because if we're being honest, she's probably not lounging around with a beer plotting her next adventure. She may be plotting but she's got a 'sh*tload of things to finish first before cracking open a beer or pouring a glass of wine or doing whatever relaxes her. So WHO IS SHE? By Jove I thought to myself, "The Most Interesting WOMAN in the World" is… WE!   WE meaning  – all the women over 50 (and there are plenty I tell ya!) with wisdom, passion and purpose —out there in the world 'still in the game', who've been there, done that, – and are still swinging against all odds most days. I was thinking, SHE likely has wrinkles, uses reading glasses, has a very busy brain, likely has a demanding job or business or demanding caretaking obligation. And most likely has a huge heart that still puts everyone else first. Hmmm. Sounds a lot like me. Sound like you? Or someone you know?  Oh - and she buys a boatload of stuff. Like Me. "The Most Interesting Woman in the World". Hmmm.  She's the woman who: might not have a giant social media following… but has massive word-of-mouth power buys everything for everybody (herself, the household, the kids, the grandkids, the nieces, the nephews… and probably the neighbor) is old-school but open to new things (especially if they promise better health, more energy, fewer annoyances or promise to make her look younger.) "The Most Interesting WOMAN in the World" Takes Risks!  Yes, she does! So who am I not to? Especially since I'm the one always pushing others to: "Risk It! or Regret It! I decided to RISK turning on my phone camera to record an opening segment of my radio show on 'video' as well as audio, so you could SEE what you usually don't when I do my live radio show. Yup, you can see how I talk with my hands and see the products I brought in from my house for 'show and tell' on the air that day. It was not a comfortable decision. I've been avoiding video. I do not love my looks these days, but I did it. And now I'm cool because I created a live radio show, that's partially on video, that's also a podcast, and has been turned into short media clips for other social media channels to drive back to the full video opening of my radio show on You Tube, that may encourage people to go and listen to the rest of the audio of my podcast - and maybe tune in live to the radio show. Full disclosure: All this effort did not burn a calorie. The live radio show is easy. I've been doing live radio so long I could do it in my sleep. It's all the other new pieces of the media pie - the audio /podcast /video/blog /social media puzzle, that takes quite an effort. I'll tell ya this much. AI filters are much cheaper than Botox, and figuring all this out was mentally exhausting. HOWEVER! "WE… "The Most Interesting Women In the World"  cannot stay interesting… if we do not embrace new knowledge and take new risks! Ok so …For fun I brought some products from my house to the radio studio that "The Most Interesting WOMAN in the World" might own for 'show and tell'.   Centrum Women 50+ MultiGummy (because we're doing our best to not fall apart like cheap patio furniture) Saline nasal spray (a product we somehow didn't grow up with but now feels like a household essential. Who knew. Right?) Lume deodorant 72-hour protection! (Once I got past the initial awkward TV commercial with the Founder focusing on where else this stuff can make me smell nice - I decided to just get on board for the 72 hours under my arms so I'd have one less thing to worry about - just in case I forgot.) A gadgety little YCZ Electric Massage Pro eye tool my daughter politely gave me as a gift to try and HELP me. (warm, glowy, red light-ish… fine fine we're trying new things!) Costco Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil (because it's a BIG bottle of quality olive oil that tastes great straight from my peeps back in Italy at a great price. If I'm going to "do better," I want food that tastes like it loves me back) Morning Kick by Chuck Norris (I took his quiz, got labeled a "rapid ager," and immediately decided I need Chuck to back me freakin up. I'm testing it and kinda love it) Also, because of the nonstop flow of information these days I always come across a lot of 'who knew' stuff I find out that I want to share. Like that dry roasted peanuts build your telomeres. Yup. Short telomeres equal short life. So, I stole my Dave's peanuts for show and tell. He now brags he's younger because he eats them, and now I have to eat them just to have my telomeres catch up. (I tell ya being interesting is a nonstop sport.) And because "The Most Interesting Woman in the World" is also likely starting to blow some body parts… I showed off a flyer featuring that great gal Evelyn the physical therapist from ProClinix who's been workin' on me helping to get me get back in the game! (which starts with me getting on and off the table). And because "The Most Interesting Woman in the World" also wants to have as much fun as possible before she's dead… I also discussed just how many companies are pitching me to come have fun with them. Like the  Royal Caribbean cruise line that begs me by email almost daily to sail away with them again, and again, and again. YES, YES,  "The Most Interesting Woman in the World" – The collective 'WE' – want to have more FUN!   We're open. Where are we going?  We're IN! Just can't be the same day we're already booked. Like on a day we have a Dr. or dentist appointment or are taking someone else to a Dr. or a dentist appt. Can't be on a day when a plumber is coming to the house or on a day when we have an appointment, meeting, a zoom, going to a kids sports event or when we're babysitting. Oh, or when we've got a hair appt. And it can't be anything that starts too late at night or requires us to drive far in bad weather.   Other than we're free. LOL   Here's what I touched on the rest of the show The "anti-marketing" protein bar that's winning the protein wars is simply DAVID and why some brands win without screaming. Apparently, a protein bar called David is crushing it, partly because it's doing the opposite of what every loud, neon, influencer-filled protein brand is doing. Simple subway ads. Tons of white space. A sleek package. No drama. And the numbers? Wild. The brand's buzz has been building like a cult favorite, with big fundraising and serious sales projections. I first tasted them at a National Women's Pickleball Foundation event and immediately understood the strategy: get it in people's mouths first — then they'll come looking for it later. (That's marketing.) Then I found our there's a New personality label: "Otrovert"  "Wait… is that me?" Otrovert (from "otro," meaning "other") is basically someone who can look extroverted and function socially just fine…but actually recharges best alone or in quieter settings. Observant, sensitive to group dynamics, craving real connection… and sometimes leaving a room feeling oddly separate. The takeaway? Pressure's off. You're allowed to be social AND need silence. You're allowed to shine AND need downtime. Be who you are. (I support this message.) Divorce rings are a thing (and yes, I have thoughts) And then—because my brain is a pinball machine—we hit a British Vogue trend: divorce ring parties. Women re-setting stones from old engagement rings into new jewelry to mark a fresh chapter. It's community, champagne, and a little "we're going to be okay." Whenever I speak of divorce, I always like to point out that divorce is painful. A broken dream. No matter who's fault it is. Even when it's necessary, it has a long emotional tail. So, if you're in that chapter: I hope you find your next "happily ever after," whatever that looks like. Also: Walking sharks. That's it. That's the sentence. ScienceDaily had me staring into the void with this headline: walking sharks that apparently break rules of reproduction without a measurable increase in energy use. Do I need this information? No. Did I share it anyway? Absolutely. Because that's what I do. Discover stuff and share it. Ozempic marketing, sweatpants history, and the courage to turn on the camera I also touched on: Novo Nordisk leaning into a "Get a Mac"-style ad throwback to clarify Ozempic's FDA-approved uses (marketing is getting very nostalgic lately) International Sweatpants Day, and the fact that sweatpants evolved from athletic wear to "I live here now" fashion (and yes, I did also mention the origins) And threading through all of it was my own little "new era" moment: I turned on a camera in the studio—even though I'm not exactly thrilled about it—because staying relevant means shifting with the times. It means blending wisdom with new tools, learning new stuff, and continuing to show up. Because "The Most Interesting Woman in the World" isn't one person. She's all of us. Especially those of us learning how not to let getting older get in the way of being us.   The Daily Toast (because I always end the show with a little sparkle) I closed with a quote I loved from Dr. Steve Maraboli: "There is nothing more rare, nor more beautiful, than a woman being unapologetically herself…" Amen, Dr. Maraboli. And my personal sign-off still stands: 'Someday' Has Arrived… It's Time to Roll! Onward! Debbie

Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, or CRSwNP, is a condition driven by ongoing inflammation. That is why treatment is not a one-time fix and why polyps can come back even after surgery. In this episode, Dr. Payel Gupta and Kortney are joined by Dr. Maeve O'Connor, a board-certified allergist and immunologist, to walk through CRSwNP treatment options. This episode is released around World Anosmia Day because loss of smell is one of the most frustrating and most common symptoms of CRSwNP, and one that treatment can actually help with. What we cover in this episode about nasal polyps treatment Nasal therapies as your base management: Saline rinses and nasal steroid sprays are the foundation of CRSwNP treatment. They need to be used consistently as part of your daily routine, not just when symptoms flare. Why nasal polyps keep coming back: CRSwNP is driven by ongoing inflammation, not just the polyps themselves, so removing them does not address the root cause. When surgery is the right choice: Sinus surgery can open blocked passages and help nasal sprays reach deeper into the sinuses, but works best as part of a long-term plan, not a one-time fix. What biologic medications actually do: Biologics target the underlying inflammation causing CRSwNP. Four are currently approved for CRSwNP: dupilumab, omalizumab, mepolizumab, and tezepelumab. Why follow-up care matters even when you feel better: Inflammation can return before symptoms become noticeable, so regular check-ins with your allergist or ENT are key to catching early signs of polyp regrowth.

In this episode of Better Edge, Akhil Narang, MD, associate professor of Cardiology at Northwestern Medicine, examines the phase 3 ENHANCE trial, which evaluates a novel syringe-mounted surfactant device designed to generate uniform microbubbles and reduce variability in saline contrast echocardiography. By improving right-heart opacification and the fidelity of right-to-left shunt detection, the device aims to improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce rates of non-diagnostic and repeat studies. Rooted in Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute's commitment to advancing translational imaging, this trial may improve both workflow efficiency and patient care.

Can you do better than Jay in today's edition of the Two Grand Slam?

No Sam today. Dusty shirt is maize; get it before we play MSU again. Things Discussed: Men's & Women's Basketball win at Breslin: 40 basketball wins. Jeremy Fears's instant karma for his dirty play. Impossible not to see all the extra stuff that guy does when you rewatch the games: yankbacks, pulldowns, more trips. Ira counted 80 yards in penalties and a targeting. MSU game: Brilliant defensive first half, all MSU could do consistently was get to the free throw line. Calling out their dirty play goes right to their heart because it's the best thing they can do. Going 2-3 zone out of halftime made good tactical sense but ball betrayed them a bit, good resilience to fight back. More tactics: Michigan was getting it down to Mara but he's not big enough on the block to make that. McKenney love: He's played his way to Michigan's best two—Burnett and Gayle are losing minutes to him. Anticipates screens, is big, and his midrange pullups are a good floor for possessions that help you against an elite defense. Really important for what this team needs to be going forward. Who's M's best draft pick? We'd take Morez. Who's the best five? Depends on opponent and context. Might not play Mara vs a 5-out team, can go three bigs against an MSU-like opponent. Who's the best team in the Big Ten? Illinois. They go to Breslin and host Michigan but the rest of their schedule are the mids Michigan already played, they got the best player in the league from the composite 250s in Wagler—worst scouting miss in history? Hope Underwood calls out MSU's assist lies so Wagler gets his laurels for his real assists. Michigan next year? Might only have to replace Yaxel (McKenney and Cason take Gayle and Burnett minutes), can go to the portal for a difference-maker and run it back. Penn State preview: They have Mingo back but Yuric played out of his mind last time and think he's not coming back from a 103-degree fever on Saturday to play like that again. Have a bunch of questionable guys tonight. Think University Park atmosphere is similar to Saline 7th Grade Middle School game. WEAR PINK (I can't; I don't have any). What's the reverse Dusty May for Izzo? Sing he's a jolly good fellow, or bring out the newspapers. Hockey: MSU series could be for the conference since Wisconsin is wilting and Penn State just lost McKenna to a bar fight. Michigan needs to get more than a split because MSU has Minnesota, Notre Dame, and Ohio State left, and Michigan still has to play the other contenders. Put me down for this: Mick Cronin is going to complain about Michigan buying players when he comes to Ann Arbor. Craig says he'll dog his own players.

Today we're talking about Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria—often referred to as RSD—a deeply emotional experience that affects so many individuals with ADHD and other forms of neurodivergence. My guest is Dr. Sharon Saline, a clinical psychologist who has spent over 30 years working with neurodivergent children, teens, adults, and families. In our conversation, Sharon breaks down what RSD is, how it shows up in daily life, and why understanding it can be such a game changer—for both kids and parents. We talk about the emotional and psychological impact of RSD, practical tools for managing it, and how to cultivate self-compassion and resilience in the face of painful rejection or criticism. Sharon also shares strategies for helping kids navigate social situations with more confidence and less overwhelm, and for supporting ourselves as parents along the way.

Brian From reflects on the emotional rollercoaster of sports fandom, Time Magazine’s Person of the Year, and why dark chocolate might help you live longer—even if he refuses to eat it. He explores the deeper spiritual challenge of Christmas: not consumerism or secularism, but our own boredom with the most astonishing story ever told. The episode closes with a sobering look at the Michigan football scandal as a reminder that sin always destroys—and the gospel always restores.

Rising salt levels in soil and water are destroying farmland worldwide, with 16.6 million square kilometers now salt-affected — an area roughly the size of South America Saline agriculture offers a powerful solution by using salt-tolerant crops, smart irrigation, and natural soil restoration methods to turn degraded land back into productive farmland Research shows countries like China, India, Pakistan, Argentina, and the U.S. have millions of acres suitable for saline farming, which could help feed hundreds of millions of people without relying on scarce freshwater Techniques such as gypsum treatment, drip irrigation, and phytoremediation — using plants themselves to absorb and redistribute salt — is helping restore soil fertility and protect food supplies These same principles apply beyond farms; by managing salt, adding organic matter, and choosing resilient plants, even home gardeners can help revive soil health and contribute to global food resilience

Breast implants have come a long way, and on this episode of Plastic Surgery Untold we're breaking it all down. From saline implants to today's 6th generation cohesive gel implants, the options available now are more versatile than ever. Each type comes with unique advantages, and the right choice depends on your body, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals. Saline implants offered safety and flexibility with volume adjustments, but also came with firmness and rippling. Fifth generation gummy bear implants introduced highly cohesive gel for softness and shape, reducing rippling and improving results. Now, the sixth generation implants build on this progress with 100% fill, progressive gels, and advanced shell technology, giving patients more natural results and surgeons greater control. At the end of the day, there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Some patients may benefit from the structure of 6th generation Motiva implants, while others may prefer a different option based on their anatomy or desired outcome. The key is finding what's best for you — and that's what we help patients decide every day. Key takeaways from this episode: Saline implants provided safety and flexibility, but were firmer with higher rippling. Fifth generation gummy bear implants brought softness, safety, and customization. Sixth generation implants combine natural movement with structure, helping address challenges like weight loss changes and rippling. Stay tuned to Plastic Surgery Untold for more insights as we explore the world of cosmetic surgery, the evolution of breast implants, and how technology continues to expand patient options.

We're bringing the heat with listeners' weird medical questions! Are the hot parts of the body the only Sweaty parts? Is spicy food spicier some days more than others?

Imagine your brain as a control room. On most days, the switches flick and the dials turn just as they should. But then something small—an unanswered text, a missed deadline, a critical glance—trips the wrong lever. Suddenly, that control room is submerged. The signals blur. The system floods.This week on Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast, Pete and Nikki sit down with two returning champions of clarity and compassion: Dr. Sharon Saline and Dr. Dodge Rea. Together, they unravel the hidden mechanics of emotional flooding—not as a character flaw, but as a neurological response shaped by fear, history, and a sometimes-overzealous amygdala.Through stories, science, and metaphor (including rogue trains and Wile E. Coyote's ill-fated cliff dives), they reveal what happens when the ADHD brain short-circuits under pressure—and what we can actually do about it. Along the way, you'll learn how shame disguises itself as control, how the body signals what the mind can't process, and why sometimes the most strategic thing you can do is… go to the bathroom.This is a conversation about reframing of the narrative so many ADHD adults carry with them: that being overwhelmed means being broken. It doesn't. It never did.Links & NotesLearn more about Dr. Sharon Saline: drsharonsaline.comLearn more about Dr. Dodge Rea: dodgerea.comSupport the Show on PatreonDig into the podcast Shownotes Database (00:00) - Welcome to The ADHD Podcast (00:57) - Support the Show: Become a Patron Today https://patreon.com/theadhdpodcast (02:38) - Emotional Flooding with Dr. Sharon Saline and Dr. Dodge Rea (21:35) - The Consequences (25:09) - Is Emotional Flooding a sort of Trance?
