It's a story that sounds like sci-fi, and it's about to be literally hovering over our border. The USDA is building mass‐breeding facilities—dubbed ‘fly factories’—to raise and release sterile male New World screwworm flies along Texas and into southern Mexico. The aim? To combat a parasitic fly whose flesh-eating larvae can decimate cattle, pets, wildlife—even infect humans. Sterile insects mate with wild females, producing infertile eggs—an old tactic from the 1950s that succeeded in eradicating the pest decades ago. I don't like it! We ask important questions surrounding this government operation to Dr. Peter McCullough, the doctor best known of exposing deception surrounding government activities especially related to COVID. Why is the USDA sinking $29 million into two new fly operations—one in Hidalgo County, Texas (Moore Air Base) and another in southern Mexico by mid‑2026? Who benefits—and who’s uneasy? Ranchers applaud safeguarding livestock, but local residents and privacy watchdogs ask: can we trust government drones or crop-dusters dropping millions of lab-reared flies into night skies? When the government releases billions of sterile flies at dusk, are we getting cutting-edge pest management… or something more ominous lurking behind the science mask? The Wellness Company prides itself on pushing back against censorship and tyranny. It's why it has developed a series of prescription drug medical emergency kits including a parasite cleanse that prescribed directly to you and delivered to your door to use incase of an emergency.

When people think about healthcare marketing, they often picture numbers—safety stats, product specs and clinical data. But behind every hospital decision is a person who cares. A nurse focused on keeping patients safe. A doctor working for better outcomes. An administrator trying to build a healthier, more supportive environment. Healthcare is personal—and the marketing behind it should be too. That's what Episode 39 of the Brand Slam podcast is all about. Co-hosts Steve Rosa and Joe Kayata talk with Nuno Azeredo, Vice President of Global Marketing at Advanced Sterilization Products (ASP). Nuno has a unique background: he's worked on well-known consumer brands like Kleenex and held leadership roles in healthcare companies like Baxter and Hill-Rom. He understands both the heart and the science behind marketing. In this episode, Nuno shares how emotion plays a big role in healthcare marketing—even when you're selling something as technical as sterilization systems. It's easy to focus on features and facts, but the strongest brands connect with people. They speak to how a product helps real patients, real caregivers and real lives. Nuno also talks about the power of context—understanding where your customer is, what they're feeling and what they need in the moment. It's a powerful reminder for marketers: even in complex, technical industries, the best brands lead with empathy and real human connection. Interested in a particular topic or want to be a guest?

When most people think of hospitals, their minds go straight to doctors, nurses, and lifesaving procedures. Rarely do they consider the intricate world behind the scenes—especially the sterile processing departments that ensure every surgical instrument is safe and accounted for. In an era where precision and speed can impact patient outcomes, advancements in surgical instrument tracking technology are transforming the way these essential departments operate. The integration of tools like CensiTrac has revolutionized everything from locating misplaced sets to managing loaned equipment with photo documentation, increasing both accountability and efficiency. For professionals tasked with training new technicians, intuitive software has also become an unexpected ally—turning complex processes into teachable, repeatable routines. But the real story isn't just the technology; it's about the people leveraging it to build smoother workflows, create faster turnaround times, and offer better care. To hear from the frontline of this innovation, meet Sydney McWaters and Trey Sneed of Stillwater Medical Center, who share how ConCensis has reshaped their daily work in meaningful ways

Chelissa Gray, a Sterile Processing Technician at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi, describes CensiTrac as an essential part of her daily workflow. With CensiTrac, Gray and her team can track every surgical instrument from the moment it arrives in decontamination to when it's delivered back to the operating room, ensuring full visibility and accountability throughout the process.One of the features she values most is real-time productivity tracking, which allows technicians to measure and improve their performance continuously. This capability helps staff not only stay on top of their tasks but also push for higher standards each day.CensiTrac also helps reduce confusion between departments. When instruments are still in the OR or misplaced, the tracking system makes it easy to verify their location, helping eliminate blame and streamline communication between the OR and sterile processing.For Gray, the message is simple: CensiTrac works—and it makes a measurable difference in day-to-day operations.

Behind every successful surgical procedure lies an invisible backbone—sterile processing. Often overlooked, this critical department ensures that every instrument is clean, traceable, and ready at a moment's notice. As hospitals wrestle with efficiency, accountability, and staffing shortages, digital solutions like ConCensis are revolutionizing sterile workflows through real-time tracking and productivity tools. This isn't just about logistics—it's about empowering technicians with visibility and pride in their performance, transforming “just another task” into a data-driven mission.One technician who embodies this shift is Chelissa Gray, a Sterile Processing Technician at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, MS—hear how ConCensis has changed her daily work, and why she wouldn't go back.

In the quiet hum of hospital backrooms, sterile processing departments serve as the guardians of patient safety—meticulously cleaning, assembling, and sterilizing surgical instruments. Yet for years, many of these departments operated in a fog of manual logs, handwritten checklists, and guesswork that left too much room for error. Today, the shift to digital tracking and automation is transforming sterile processing into a precision-driven science. With systems like ConCensis, every instrument's journey—from decontamination to storage—is logged and traceable, ensuring accountability and enabling swift quality control interventions. The data-rich environment also empowers managers with insights into tray usage, inventory optimization, and staff productivity—turning what was once reactive work into a strategic advantage. While digital adoption may be painful up front, as with many hospital tech transitions, the downstream benefits in safety, efficiency, and peace of mind are impossible to ignore.For a firsthand account of this transformation, meet Brenda "Jan" Prudent, Sterile Processing Manager at Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center, who shares how technology has reshaped her department and why even the once-dreaded Decontam area is now embraced.

At the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, Nursing Manager Josh Meyer has seen measurable benefits from implementing CensiTrac's AI² functionality. The tool has become an integral part of how the department monitors quality, manages staffing, and improves daily operations.With AI², the team is able to track key quality metrics across sterile processing workflows. From detecting sharp items improperly placed in containers to identifying holes in blue wraps or missing instruments in trays, every detail is logged and analyzed. This granular data helps ensure that only properly prepared and fully compliant instrument sets are sent to the operating room.In addition to quality monitoring, the system provides valuable insights into staffing needs and productivity levels. Meyer and his team use this data to assess daily output and identify where staffing adjustments may be necessary to maintain performance standards.By leveraging the technology, the sterile processing team has strengthened its operational visibility, improved accountability, and enhanced the overall quality of surgical support services.

In the intricate choreography of modern healthcare, sterile processing may not be the most visible performance—but it's one of the most vital. Behind every successful surgery lies an army of professionals ensuring that every tool is flawlessly clean, complete, and ready for action. As hospitals face rising demands and tighter margins, the ability to track quality metrics and staffing productivity in real-time has become indispensable. Leveraging advanced technology like AI-powered analytics is no longer a luxury—it's a necessity to safeguard patient outcomes and improve operational efficiency.One leader who's pioneering this evolution in sterile processing is Josh Meyer, Nurse Manager at Mayo Clinic Rochester, who shares how tools like ConCensis are reshaping the frontline of surgical readiness.

In The Trump Code, investigative journalist Troy Anderson uncovers a shocking web of time travel theories, secret societies, and prophetic warnings that suggest Trump's presidency—and his fight against the deep state—was foretold. Did Trump's uncle really gain access to Nikola Tesla's classified research on time manipulation? Why do 19th-century novels eerily describe a “Baron Trump” guided by a mentor named “Don”? And could Trump's 2024 assassination attempt be part of an ancient biblical prophecy? Anderson pieces together suppressed technology, mysterious books, and the eerie timing of celestial events to argue that Trump isn't just a political force—he's part of something much bigger. Could The Trump Code hold the key to America's fate? GUEST: Troy Anderson is a Pulitzer Prize-nominated investigative journalist and #1 bestselling author specializing in prophecy, geopolitics, and the supernatural. His books, including The Babylon Code, Trumpocalypse, and The Military Guide to Armageddon, have captivated audiences worldwide. A former executive editor at Charisma magazine and reporter at the Los Angeles Daily News, he's a frequent guest on Newsmax, CBN, and other major outlets. As founder of Prophecy Investigators and co-host of Frontline, Anderson explores the intersection of faith, politics, and deep-state conspiracies, uncovering hidden truths about world events.

Welcome to the Part Time Pilot Audio Ground School Podcast! This podcast takes our free podcast to a whole new level by providing students with every single lesson included in the Part Time Pilot Private Pilot & IFR Ground Schools without a single Ad! On top of that, VIP podcast students get BONUS episodes like Mock Checkrides, Checkride Prep, Expert Interviews and more! The #1 reason student pilots never end up becoming a private pilot is NOT due to money. The real reason is actually deeper than that. Yes, flight training is expensive. But every student pilot knows this and budgets for it when they decide to do it. The actual #1 reason a student pilot fails is because they do not have a good, fundamental understanding of the private pilot knowledge they are meant to learn in ground school. You see when a student does not have a good grasp of this knowledge they get to a point in their flight training where their mind just can't keep up. They start making mistakes and having to redo lessons. And THAT is when it starts getting too expensive. This audio ground school is meant for the modern day student pilot... aka the part time student pilot. Let's face it, the majority of us have full time responsibilities on top of flight training. Whether it is a job, kids, family, school, etc. we all keep ourselves busy with the things that are important to us. And with today's economy we have to maintain that job just to pay for the training. The modern day student pilot is busy, on the go and always trying to find time throughout his or her day to stay up on their studies. The audio ground school allows them to consume high quality content while walking, running, working out, sitting in traffic, traveling, or even just a break from the boring FAR/AIM or ground school lecture. Did I meant high quality content? The audio ground school is taken straight out of the 5-star rated Part Time Pilot Online Ground School that has had over 2000 students take and pass their Private Pilot & IFR exams with only 2 total students failing the written. That's a 99.9% success rate! And the 2 that failed? We refunded their cost of ground school and helped them pass on their second attempt. We do this by keeping ground school engaging, fun, light and consumable. We have written lessons, videos, audio lessons, live video lessons, community chats, quizzes, practice tests, flash cards, study guides, eBooks and much more. Part Time Pilot was created to be a breath of fresh air for student pilots. To be that flight training provider that looks out for them and their needs. So that is just what we are doing with this podcast.   IFR Section 3 - Lesson 12: In this lesson, we review the Sterile Cockpit we care about as IFR pilots. We talk about what they are, what they are used for and why we use them. This is a key concept you should have learned in private pilot but if not, we will review it for you hear as it sets up the following lessons on IFR instrumentation.     Links mentioned in the episode: Private Pilot Online Ground School: PPL Ground School - Part Time Pilot Checkride Prep: PPL Checkride Prep - Part Time Pilot Ultimate Private Pilot Test Prep Book: Book on Amazon IFR Online Ground School: IFR Ground School – Part Time Pilot   PPL study group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/parttimepilot  IFR study group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/parttimepilotifr/   Recommended Products & Discounts:  https://parttimepilot.com/recommended-products-for-student-pilots/ 

Reviewing the article, “Why is the American Diet so Deadly?”

We live in a sterile and de-relationalized world. A large number of Gen Zers are on psychotropic drugs and are longing for relationships, but the modern church isn't putting relationships as a priority. As Christians, we need to follow Jesus' example of building and fostering relationships. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Kash Patel vows to reform FBI into "premier law enforcement agency", Reagan Airport's control tower understaffed, E.U. delegation warns Pakistan about human rights abuses) 2.

The sterile processing industry is on the brink of a revolution, driven by the power of artificial intelligence. As healthcare facilities seek to enhance efficiency, reduce risks, and optimize workflow, AI has emerged as a pivotal tool in supporting sterile processing professionals. Industry leader Hank Balch, co-founder and president of Healthcare HQ, is at the forefront of this transformation, advocating for AI's role as a critical ally rather than a replacement for human expertise.In this episode of the ConCensis podcast, host Amy Chodroff sat down with Balch to explore how AI is reshaping the sterile processing landscape. Their discussion provided valuable insights into the intersection of AI and SPD, highlighting both its potential and its limitations. The conversation covered:AI as a Supportive Tool, Not a Replacement: AI enhances sterile processing efficiency by assisting with tasks, but human professionals remain at the heart of critical decision-making and process improvements.Eliminating the “Dull, Dirty, and Dangerous” Tasks: AI is already being implemented to assist in removing repetitive, hazardous, and time-consuming responsibilities in sterile processing, improving efficiency and safety.Bridging the Knowledge Gap: AI platforms like ChatGPT are providing real-time solutions to common SPD challenges, from calculating Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) to identifying workflow inefficiencies.The Future of AI in Sterile Processing: While AI adoption in SPD is still in its early stages, its trajectory is undeniable. Professionals must decide whether to proactively integrate AI into their workflows or risk being left behind as the industry evolves.Balch's passion for innovation is evident as he encourages sterile processing professionals to embrace AI as a strategic partner. He emphasizes that while AI will never replace human expertise, it has the potential to significantly enhance decision-making, streamline processes, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.As the industry continues to navigate technological advancements, Balch leaves listeners with a call to action: adapt, explore, and lead the charge in integrating AI into sterile processing.

Children are a gift from God. Children have integrity and rights. With these key principles in mind, Fr. Mike reviews the Catechism's teachings about marriage, family, child bearing, sterility, and adoption. Because “a child is not something owed to one but is a gift”, we must protect the dignity of the child at the forefront of all decisions. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2373-2379. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/ciy Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
