In this episode of the HVAC School podcast, Bryan welcomes back Brynn Cooksey from Air Doctors and HVAC U to discuss critical topics facing the HVAC industry today. Brynn brings his unique perspective as both a successful contractor in southeast Michigan and an industry educator who has made the transition to focusing primarily on workforce development and training. The conversation begins with a deep dive into indoor air quality (IAQ), where Brynn challenges the common industry approach of throwing products at problems without proper testing. He emphasizes that effective IAQ solutions start with comprehensive testing to identify specific issues like high particles, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), or excessive carbon dioxide levels. Rather than relying on "magic bullet" products, Brynn advocates for a holistic approach that prioritizes ventilation strategies, source control, and proper filtration. He particularly stresses the importance of the "V" in HVAC, ventilation, which he believes is often overlooked in favor of flashier solutions. His company's protocol of testing on every customer visit, from first encounters to maintenance calls, has created a culture where technicians become comfortable discussing IAQ solutions based on actual data rather than assumptions. The discussion transitions into ethical sales practices, a topic that resonates strongly in an industry where pressure to sell can sometimes conflict with customer needs. Brynn defines unethical sales as pressuring customers into products that won't benefit them or failing to provide complete information about benefits and consequences. His approach centers on thorough customer surveys to understand actual problems and budget constraints, followed by tying specific solutions to identified issues. This methodology puts the customer in control of decisions while positioning the contractor as a trusted advisor rather than a high-pressure salesperson. Brynn argues that price alone doesn't determine ethics - rather, it's the intent behind recommendations and the transparency of communication that matters most. The final segment focuses on workforce development, an area where Brynn has found significant success. His company's registered apprenticeship program, developed through the Department of Labor, has become a competitive advantage in attracting talent while providing structured, in-house training. The program requires minimal cost beyond commitment to ethical treatment of apprentices and systematic tracking of their progress. Brynn's transition from contractor to educator demonstrates the growing need for comprehensive training programs that go beyond basic technical skills to include building science, customer service, and ethical business practices. His ongoing weekly training sessions focus on field trends and callback prevention, contributing to an impressive callback rate of less than 0.5%. Topics Covered Indoor Air Quality Testing and Assessment Using monitors like Air Advice for comprehensive IAQ evaluation Implementing testing protocols on every customer interaction Moving beyond product-focused solutions to holistic approaches Ventilation Strategies and Building Science The importance of mechanical ventilation and ERV systems Understanding the relationship between building envelope leakage and humidity issues Source control as the foundation of effective IAQ management Ethical Sales Practices Defining unethical sales and pressure tactics Customer survey techniques and solution-tying methodologies The concept of fiduciary duty in HVAC contracting Equipment Sizing and System Design The impact of oversized equipment on IAQ and comfort Proper load calculations and duct system design Static pressure testing and airflow optimization Workforce Development and Training Implementing registered apprenticeship programs Weekly training sessions focused on field trends and callback prevention Transitioning from contractor to educator and industry trainer Building Envelope and Duct System Integrity Air sealing strategies for improved humidity control The relationship between leaky envelopes and indoor air quality Duct modifications and system upgrades Customer Education and Professional Positioning Using testing data to support recommendations Overcoming price objections through professional credibility Building long-term customer relationships through transparency Learn more about Brynn's work at hvactrain.com.

This week we talk about Todd collecting up some dirt for the layout and how he doesn't bake it in the oven to make sure all the critters are out of it. Brett has returned from his vacation, we both give our building updates & we go on a funny evolution of the different types of static grass applicators we have used.
Today, Pastor Michael Acock speaks in week 12 of our series study of the book of Colossians. Our series is called "Beyond the Static" as we look to clear the noise of life and our world and listen to the voice of a loving God. In this sermon, Pastor Michael invites us into a conversation about prayer, emphasizing its pivotal role in connecting us to God's kingdom purposes. Drawing from Colossians 4:2-6, he reveals Paul's unwavering commitment to prayer even while imprisoned, showing how such steadfastness can transform lives, including our own. Pastor Michael shares that prayer isn't merely about requests but a way to align ourselves with God's will, awakening our spirits to the hopeful future He promises. As we confront the struggles of life and unanswered plea, we're encouraged to not just seek personal breakthroughs, but to pray boldly for opportunities to share the gospel, just as Paul did. You can find the full sermon notes and other resources at our website. We hope this message encourages you and helps you know Jesus in a more real way.

We use articulators to help ‘mimic' our patient's jaw movements, to ultimately do less adjustments/revisions in the future. But are digital articulators there yet? Or is analog king? Or is digital dentistry just flashy tech with no real-world benefits? Can a virtual articulator truly match the movements of your patient's jaw? Is a CBCT really better than a facebow—and WHEN should you use which? In this cutting-edge episode with Dr. Seth Atkins, we dive into the world of digital articulation—exploring how tools like virtual articulators, CBCT alignment, and 3D-printed provisionals are transforming clinical workflows. You'll learn how to combine analog wisdom with digital precision, improve lab communication, and make full-mouth rehabs more predictable and efficient than ever. From mounting accuracy to motion capture, this episode is your ultimate guide to articulating smarter in the digital age. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fT31Ecf_kDo Watch PDP230 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Always send your lab the color version of your digital scan — the PLY file — not just the STL. STL shows shape, but PLY shows color — like markings and tissue detail. Ask your lab: "Are you seeing color, or do you need the PLY?" Better scans = better results Need to Read it? Check out the Full Episode Transcript below! Key Takeaways: Digital methods can enhance accuracy and patient outcomes → but only when used intentionally. Understanding both analog and digital techniques is crucial → they complement each other, not compete. Mentorship plays a significant role in advancing dental education → experience accelerates clinical confidence. Digital workflows can significantly reduce chair time → and improve patient comfort in the process. The integration of CBCT with digital workflows enhances diagnostics → giving clearer insight into static and functional relationships. Digital provisionals offer a cost-effective and efficient solution → saving time, money, and frustration for both dentist and patient. Axiography is essential for capturing patient motion accurately → because real movement matters more than assumptions.

Let's Chat!What happens when the digital traces you've left behind begin to speak back to you in your own voice? This haunting episode of the Gentleman's Journey podcast explores the terrifying possibility that the most unsettling presence in our lives might be fragments of ourselves we've chosen to forget.Our protagonist, a skilled hacker, discovers strange files bearing his encryption signature that he has no memory of creating. As he digs deeper, he uncovers a digital entity that perfectly mimics not just his voice and coding style, but his subtle mannerisms and thought patterns. What begins as a potential security breach transforms into something far more personal and unsettling: a confrontation with parts of himself he's buried over time.Against the backdrop of caring for his terminally ill mother and their nightly ritual of gin rummy games, our protagonist navigates a digital landscape where the boundaries between self and other become increasingly blurred. The mysterious "Unather" files contain recordings of conversations he never documented and messages seemingly sent from beyond time itself. But the most chilling revelation comes when he realizes this entity isn't attempting to destroy him—it might instead be trying to lead him back to wholeness.Through this deeply personal narrative, we explore profound questions about identity, memory, and self-knowledge. What parts of ourselves do we archive because they no longer feel safe to express? How might those discarded aspects continue to speak to us through our behavior? And what happens when we finally listen to the whispers of our forgotten selves?Take a journey into the spaces between digital consciousness and human memory, and ask yourself: if a stranger spoke your truth better than you did, would you silence them—or recognize that the stranger might be a version of you that never gave up?"True mastery is found in the details. The way you handle the little things defines the way you handle everything."

With a background in radio sales management and inventory, Harry transitioned to the attractions industry over a decade ago and now leads the sales and marketing efforts at Digonex, a company specializing exclusively in dynamic pricing solutions. Digonex serves over 130 organizations globally, including attractions and live entertainment venues, and employs a team of PhD economists who create data-driven, customized pricing strategies. In this interview, Harry talks about dynamic pricing, shifting attendance, and why every day is a separate event. Dynamic Pricing “With dynamic pricing, in our view, it's the ability to create a solution that utilizes a lot of different factors and variables.” Harry begins by clarifying what dynamic pricing truly means, especially as it differs from static or variable pricing models. Static pricing remains unchanged regardless of demand or season, while variable pricing may account for off-peak or weekend rates but still lacks true market responsiveness. Digonex's dynamic pricing model, by contrast, uses real-time data and a range of factors—like weather, Google Analytics, and macroeconomic trends—to generate daily price recommendations. These are not fixed mandates but suggestions that attractions can accept, reject, or adjust based on their goals and comfort level. The process allows organizations to better match their pricing to actual market conditions, ultimately optimizing both revenue and accessibility. Shifting Attendance “We have stories where...on the weekend [a client] had 14,000 people...when they did dynamic pricing, it completely smoothed out the attendance.” One of the most impactful benefits of dynamic pricing, according to Harry, is its ability to shift attendance patterns. By creating incentives for guests to visit during off-peak days or times, attractions can reduce overcrowding and improve the guest experience. This redistribution leads to operational advantages such as shorter queues, less stress on staff, and higher guest satisfaction. Importantly, Harry emphasizes the value of transparency in pricing—clients are advised to display pricing calendars on their websites and to avoid real-time price increases during checkout, which can erode trust. Instead, Digonex recommends plan-ahead pricing, ensuring guests feel confident that booking earlier guarantees the best rate. Every Day Is a Separate Event “With attractions...we look at every day as a separate event.” Unlike concerts or sports games that occur on specific dates, attractions operate continuously and require pricing strategies that reflect daily variations in demand. Harry explains that Digonex treats each operating day as its own event, sometimes even breaking days into segments (like morning, afternoon, and evening) for further granularity. Their algorithms assess price elasticity, guest behavior, conversion data, and substitution effects, which can even lead to increases in membership sales as guests perceive more value in an annual pass. This nuanced view allows for tailored pricing that meets an organization's financial and strategic goals—whether that's maximizing revenue, improving accessibility, or encouraging earlier purchases.

Today, Pastor Steve Boul speaks in week 10 of our series study of the book of Colossians. Our series is called "Beyond the Static" as we look to clear the noise of life and our world and listen to the voice of a loving God. What if the true essence of relationships lies not in power dynamics but in the radical love of Christ? In this sermon, Pastor Steve illuminates the often-misunderstood passage from Colossians about household codes—wives, husbands, children, and masters—and reframes it within the transformative context of the Gospel. By studying these verses, he encourages us to reflect on how they challenge societal norms and provoke thought on what it means to truly submit and love each other under the lordship of Jesus. You can find the full sermon notes and other resources at our website. We hope this message encourages you and helps you know Jesus in a more real way.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore some of the most recent and intriguing developments in space exploration and cosmic phenomena.Starship's Latest Test Flight Ends in ExplosionSpaceX faces another setback as its 10th Starship test flight ended in a massive explosion at the Massey test stand in Boca Chica, Texas. The incident occurred just minutes before a planned static fire test of the upper stage. We discuss the details of the explosion, including early indications of a cryogenic methane leak and the implications for SpaceX's ambitious goals of interplanetary transport.A Cosmic Anomaly and Its Frightening Implications for EarthA newly discovered cosmic anomaly challenges our understanding of galaxy evolution. A distant spiral galaxy, housing a supermassive black hole billions of times the mass of the Sun, is emitting colossal radio jets stretching over 6 million light years. This finding raises alarming questions about the potential future of our own Milky Way and the dangers posed by similar jets originating from Sagittarius A, our galaxy's supermassive black hole. We delve into the study's findings and their implications for life on Earth.New Insights into Neutron StarsA groundbreaking study has provided new insights into the birth masses of neutron stars, revealing that they typically form with a mass around 1.3 times that of our Sun. Using advanced modeling techniques, researchers analyzed a sample of neutron stars in binary systems to understand their formation history better. This research opens up new avenues for interpreting gravitational wave detections and understanding the lifecycle of massive stars.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Societyhttps://academic.oup.com/mnrasNature Astronomyhttps://www.nature.com/natureastronomy/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 75 for broadcast on 23 June 202501:00 Starship's latest test flight ends in explosion12:15 A cosmic anomaly and its frightening implications for Earth22:30 New insights into neutron stars30:00 Science report: Cannabis use linked to increased cardiovascular disease risk
Today, Pastor Michael Acock speaks in week 9 of our series study of the book of Colossians. Our series is called "Beyond the Static" as we look to clear the noise of life and our world and listen to the voice of a loving God. In today's message, Pastor Michael explores the transformative power of love as he dives into Colossians 3. He reminds us that our identity in Christ prompts a shift from self-centeredness to a life bursting with compassion, humility, and unity. Just as we throw off ill-fitted clothing, we are called to discard our old selves—marked by dishonesty and division—and don the new self, reflecting the image of our Creator. Michael also emphasizes that true love binds us together in community, breaking down barriers of race, status, and past hurts. You can find the full sermon notes and other resources at our website.

The sermon highlighted the importance of understanding sin within the framework of God's love and grace, encouraging the congregation to trust in God's goodness rather than rationalizing their behaviors. Ultimately, Pastor Beth urged everyone to put on their new self in Christ, continually striving for maturity and submitting every part of their lives to Him.

This little incident totally changed my experience of being in India. I realized that I could either “hold my breath” and live in fear, or follow reasonable precautions and enjoy the trip. I chose the latter. We traveled throughout the country, visited holy shrines, and fell in love with the spiritual depth and beauty of India and her people. None of our group ever got so much as a sniffle. Our minds are powerful receiving stations, and we're constantly being bombarded by thoughts vibrating in the ether. Love, compassion, fear, anger—they're all out there, waiting to be picked up by minds receptive to their vibration. It's up to us to choose.
Blamison are back with a regular episode about a movie that know one fucking knows!

Join us on this angelic adventure!Also talked about: Blake's post-punk journey, Blake's hatred of Pitchfork and why The Edge is not a cool nickname.Clip: Al Gore talking about creating the internet with Wolf Blitzer.

In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of reconnecting with Lora Lapiz, a dynamic individual with a rich background in neuroscience, public health, and various industries, including nonprofit and government policy. Our discussion centered around the theme "Cut Through the Noise, Clear the Static," emphasizing the importance of awareness in leadership. Laura shared her insights on how leaders often overlook the signals the universe sends us, which can lead to missed opportunities and blind spots in our interactions. We explored the concept of personal awareness, highlighting that understanding ourselves is crucial for effectively leading our teams and organizations. One of the key takeaways was Laura's framework of the "three R's": Release, Receive, and Resolve. She explained that to foster growth and transformation, we must let go of what no longer serves us, be open to receiving new insights, and have the courage to act on them. We also discussed the significance of deep listening and creating a non-judgmental environment where team members feel safe to express their thoughts. Laura emphasized that by observing and understanding the dynamics within a team, leaders can better address the underlying issues that may be hindering progress. As we wrapped up, Laura posed a thought-provoking question to our audience: "What is the message that has been circulating around you that you've been avoiding?" This challenge encourages listeners to reflect on their own experiences and consider how they can apply the principles we discussed to enhance their leadership journey. I hope you find this episode inspiring and that it prompts you to cultivate greater awareness in your leadership practice. Thank you for tuning in! Learn more about your ad choices.

To celebrate 13 years of this podcast, it's time for the Fourteenth Annual Static Awards, our fictional TV awards show which is really just a poor excuse to recap the year in TV. We both nominate shows for each award and debate who should win. Awards are meaningless, but this podcast is fun. We promise. This year, split this awards into two episodes to make the whole thing more digestable.
Today, Pastor Beth Bramstedt speaks in week 7 of our series study of the book of Colossians. Our series is called "Beyond the Static" as we look to clear the noise of life and our world and listen to the voice of a loving God. Pastor Beth shared a heartfelt message about the significance of baptism, highlighting a recent testimony from Matt about his spiritual journey. Emphasizing the transformation that comes with accepting Christ, she explained that our old life is replaced by a new life hidden in Christ. She also encouraged the congregation to look upwards for discernment rather than inward or outward, focusing on things above and deepening their relationship with God through prayer, reading scripture, and community. You can find the full sermon notes and other resources at our website. We hope this message encourages you and helps you know Jesus in a more real way.

To celebrate 13 years of this podcast, it's time for the Fourteenth Annual Static Awards, our fictional TV awards show which is really just a poor excuse to recap the year in TV. We both nominate shows for each award and debate who should win. Awards are meaningless, but this podcast is fun. We promise. This year, split this awards into two episodes to make the whole thing more digestable.

Send us a textWhat really helps prevent injuries—and what should you do when one inevitably strikes? In this episode, I use my friend Tim's pickleball injury as a jumping-off point to explore what the evidence actually says about ice, rest, NSAIDs, stretching, and more.When Tim skipped his warm-up and pulled a calf muscle, it raised a question many of us face: was it avoidable? While ancient wisdom and modern influencers often shout conflicting advice, this episode sorts through the noise to uncover what's evidence-backed, what's outdated, and what might actually delay healing. For pain, yes, ice works—cooling slows nerve conduction and can help with comfort, as seen in this study of ankle injuries. But does it reduce inflammation in a helpful way? Possibly not. Some research suggests that vasoconstriction may hinder the delivery of reparative cells and removal of waste, as noted in this trial.The evolution from RICE to PEACE to MEAT and even PEACE & LOVE reflects our shifting understanding. A meta-analysis of 22 randomized trials found no conclusive benefit of ice when added to compression or elevation. As for NSAIDs like ibuprofen, the Cochrane Review revealed no significant advantage over acetaminophen in pain relief or swelling reduction—and no clear evidence they speed up recovery.What about rest? Surprisingly, prolonged rest may do more harm than good. The Deyo study and later NEJM data show that continued normal activity (within pain tolerance) results in faster recovery than either bed rest or structured exercises, at least for acute low back pain—offering insights that might extend to other strains or sprains.Can you prevent injuries altogether? Static stretching (think toe touches) doesn't show strong support in RCT reviews, and while a recent meta-analysis found a small reduction in muscle injuries, the impact was modest. Dynamic stretching remains inconclusive according to current evidence.The takeaway? When treatments or prevention strategies are studied over and over yet results remain ambiguous, it likely means any real benefit is small—a principle I call “Dr. Bobby's Law of Many Studies.” Compare that with fall prevention in older adults: 66 RCTs involving 47,000 people showed strength and balance training significantly reduces falls by 20–30%. When something works, it tends to show up clearly and consistently.Takeaways: If you're injured, ice and NSAIDs can ease discomfort—but don't count on them to speed up healing. Resting too much may slow recovery; try gentle movement instead. Stretching might help a bit with prevention, but don't expect miracles. Evidence
Welcome to another powerful episode of The George Peterson Podcast!In this solo episode, I explore a phrase that recently landed deeply in my meditation: “Knowledge seeks wakefulness.”What does this really mean—and how does it impact the way we live, grow, and evolve?Together, we'll unpack how being more awake allows deeper wisdom and intuitive guidance to flow through us. You'll learn why practices like meditation, breathwork, and conscious living help clear the static of old conditioning and open us to synchronicities, creative insight, and a greater sense of life's guidance.We'll explore how true knowledge—beyond books and information—seeks an awake vessel: a mind and heart that are clear, present, and aligned.I'll also share stories, reflections, and practical ways you can cultivate wakefulness in your everyday life—whether you're a meditator, breathwork practitioner, entrepreneur, healer, or simply someone wanting to live in greater alignment. This is an invitation to clear the noise, trust your inner knowing, and let life move through you in unexpected and beautiful ways.
In a world full of noise, trends, and constant change… real leadership isn't just about charisma anymore...it's about clarity.This week on the podcast, we're asking the hard questions:How do leaders rise above the noise and lead with true insight? What does it mean to lead with intuition, foresight, and discernment in a culture addicted to the moment? And how do we stay grounded in values while still shaping the future?In this final episode, we have a heart to heart and hear from a General in the faith, pioneer, author and international speaker Cindy Jacobs.Whether you're leading a team, a business, a movement or just trying to lead yourself well this episode is about tapping into something deeper than strategy alone.Blacksmiths Leadership Lab: https://seanandchristasmith.com/blacksmiths/Website: www.seanandchristasmith.comFacebook: @seanandchristasmithministriesInstagram: @revseansmith @mrschristasmithX: @revseansmithYouTube: @seanandchristasmithministries

Static electricity plays an invisible role in the natural world, and it may even help insects pollinate plants. To understand this hidden force, scientists have jumped through some pretty weird experimental hoops — and “walked” butterflies through literal hoops. Guests: Sam England, postdoctoral researcher at Berlin's National History Museum; Benji Jones, Vox's environmental correspondent To read more about this experiment, Benji recommends this great article from Quanta Magazine, where he first encountered Sam's work.
