Lynnell breaks down the Commanders' offensive struggles in their Monday Night Football loss to the Chiefs, saying the unit simply didn't do enough to win.

Change doesn't fail because people are stubborn; it fails because the rollout forgets how humans actually change. In this HRchat episode, Bill Banham sits down with Georgie Cooke, Learning and Change Strategist co-founder of Lima Delta, to unpack why so many transformations lose steam and how to design plans that stick. From status quo bias and risk aversion to the quiet power of team norms, Georgie explains the psychology that shapes every initiative and shows how to turn insight into action.Tune in to hear a clear breakdown of the Inspire, Train, Sustain framework and why sequence matters. Inspire builds urgency with a story that balances opportunity with the cost of staying the same. Train turns ideas into decisions through scenario-based practice and feedback that builds real capability. Sustain locks in new habits with aligned processes, incentives, communities of practice, and ongoing communication that respects the forgetting curve. We walk through a global engineering case study where leadership behavior shifted from vision on slides to norms in daily work—town halls and toolbox talks, a custom self-assessment, scenario learning, leadership labs, mentoring, and performance systems all pulling in the same direction.Managers are the hinge that determines whether culture moves or snaps back. Georgie, a speaker at the November 12th Disrupt London summit, shares how to equip them as a distinct audience: early access, practical tools for local contexts, and clear expectations for the first 90 days. Bill and Georgie also explore how to align company values with local realities, making the “why” personal to each team. If you're leading HR, transformation, or people development, you'll leave with concrete steps to diagnose resistance, tailor messages, and build environments where the right behavior is the easy behavior.If this episode sparks ideas for your own rollout, follow along and share your biggest challenge.

Lamentations 3:25 The LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.1. Waiting isn't WASTED.WAITING on God is a NORMAL part of the Christian life.Waiting can be NORMAL and PAINFUL at the same time.Psalm 13:1 “How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?”Psalm 13:5 But I trust in your unfailing love. 2. While you're WAITING, God is WORKING.God is developing your COMPETENCY — so you can HANDLE what'snext.Don't mistake God's PROTECTION for His REJECTION.God is developing your CHARACTER — so you can SUSTAIN what's next.Psalm 130:5 I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope.God is developing your DEPENDENCE — so you TRUST HIM MORE than you trust you.Matthew 5:3 MSG “You're blessed when you're at the end of your rope. With less of you, there's more of God.”3. God's DELAYS are not God's DENIALS.2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise… He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

Thank you to the folks at Sustain (https://sustainoss.org/) for providing the hosting account for CHAOSSCast! CHAOSScast – Episode 121 In this episode of the CHAOSScast, host Alice Sowerby sits down with Andrew Nesbitt and Damián Vicino to discuss the formation and objectives of the new Package Metadata Working Group within the CHAOSS community. They discuss the complex issues surrounding package manager metadata, its interoperability challenges, and how the working group aims to address these through mapping and standardization efforts. They also touch upon the importance of these efforts for various stakeholders, including developers, researchers, and tool builders. The conversation highlights both the immediate and long-term goals of the group and provides information on how interested individuals can get involved. Hit download now to hear more! [00:00:26] Introductions from Alice, Andrew, and Damián. [00:02:36] Damián explains how the Package Metadata Working Group started. [00:04:33] Andrew shares his experience building mappings across multiple package registries and how differing field names, schema structures, and metadata definitions complicate consistency. [00:10:21] Alice asks about the group's short and long term objectives and Andrew outlines some immediate goals. [00:14:52] Damián elaborates on challenges in semantics and timelines. He emphasizes that even identically names fields may carry different meanings and shares an example. [00:18:46] Alice summarizes Damián's point saying the group's role is to provide guidance and analysis rather than enforce standards, helping maintainers make informed metadata decisions. [00:19:25] Andrew adds that most package managers evolve independently without referencing past ones. The working group's documentation aims to prevent repeated mistakes and guide new ecosystems toward interoperable designs. [00:23:06] Damián notes that modern software projects often depend on multiple ecosystems, making license tracking and dependency management exponentially harder without interoperability. [00:25:02] Andrew explains how researchers waste time rebuilding metadata mapping from scratch across ecosystems and having unified references would accelerate research and tool development. [00:27:58] Damián discusses how better metadata could support academic credit and funding by enabling easier citation and recognition of open source contributions tied to research projects. [00:29:39] How can you get involved? Damián invites package manager developers and metadata tool builders to join, and Andrew encourages anyone working with SBOMs or package metadata tools to contribute war stories, mapping, or research use cases. [00:33:01] Andrew mentions all the places you can join in on the meetings and to share where you are interested in working on. Value Adds (Picks) of the week: [00:35:25] Alice's pick is apples. [00:36:17] Damián's pick is hockey. [00:37:04] Andrew's pick is puppy training.

Last week, we talked about the key UX topics you need to educate your organization on. But education is just the foundation. Today we're diving into something equally crucial, boosting your influence and perception of UX within your organization.Changing your organization's culture to be more user-centric isn't a sprint. It's a marathon. I've learned this the hard way more times than I'd like to admit.When I first started trying to shift organizational thinking toward UX, I thought I could bulldoze through resistance with compelling presentations and undeniable data. That approach went about as well as trying to change the weather by shouting at clouds.The reality is that cultural change in organizations is genuinely challenging, and there are solid reasons why.Why organizational change feels impossibleMost organizations have what I call "change paralysis." The longer a company has existed, the more entrenched its current culture becomes. It's like trying to redirect a river that's been flowing the same way for decades. Possible, but requiring patience and strategy.The existing culture often directly clashes with user-centric thinking. I've seen companies where the quarterly targets obsession makes it nearly impossible to talk about long-term benefits like customer lifetime value or loyalty. These benefits take months or years to materialize, but if your leadership team only thinks in 90-day cycles, you're fighting an uphill battle.There's also a fundamental lack of understanding about UX value. Many organizations simply don't have a clear vision of how UX delivers business benefits. Without that foundation, any attempt at culture change feels like pushing against a wall.The art of culture hackingWhat we're really doing is hacking the organization's culture, reshaping it to foster behaviors that align with user experience values. This isn't about being sneaky. It's about being smart.Here's what I've learned works.Be subtle, not forceful. While you could try to force change through authority (if you have it), it rarely sticks long-term. The more forcefully you push, the more resistance you'll encounter. Think gentle river, not battering ram.Make incremental changes. If you're being subtle, you can't rush things. I constantly monitor what's working and what isn't, then adapt accordingly. Give people time to adopt changes before moving to the next thing. Otherwise, you'll overwhelm everyone and lose momentum.Sustain the effort. I've seen too many organizations start cultural changes with great enthusiasm, only to watch them fizzle out. Consistent, incremental improvement over a prolonged period is what creates lasting impact.Managing your expectationsDon't expect quick results, and don't despise small beginnings. At first, it feels like pushing a giant snowball. Exhausting and seemingly pointless. But once you build momentum, change happens faster and faster.The challenging part is that you're likely doing this culture hacking work on top of your regular responsibilities. It's demanding, especially at the start. Sometimes you need to step back from individual projects to focus on building that crucial momentum for change.Your next stepLook at your organization this week and identify one small, subtle change you could make that nudges toward user-centric thinking. Maybe it's asking one different question in a meeting, sharing one customer insight in a team chat, or suggesting one small process tweak.Start there. Culture change isn't about grand gestures. It's about consistent, thoughtful pressure applied in the right direction over time.What's the smallest change you could make this week that would plant a seed for user-centric thinking?Next week, we'll dive deeper into the specific techniques of culture hacking. The practical strategies for shaping a UX-friendly organization from within. I'll share the tactical approaches that actually work to create lasting cultural change.

Send us a textA Hall of Fame coach with 500+ wins doesn't hang around by accident. Coach Mike Shade of Gahanna Lincoln High School (OH) opens the dugout door to 41 years of lessons: why relationships anchor a program, how practice—not pep talks—decides results, and what “all in” really means for player standards, culture, and accountability. We trace his journey from early assistant days to a sustained run in the OCC's gauntlet, where weekly battles sharpen teams for the state tournament.We dig into his non-negotiables—character, effort, and being a great teammate—and how he delivers tough feedback without leaving players in the doghouse. Mike shares how the game has evolved around travel ball and shifting norms, yet still revolves around three outs, three strikes, and a pre‑pitch plan. You'll hear why he respects umpires who hustle and prepare, and how empowering energetic assistants keeps a veteran staff fresh. Off the field, a simple tradition—his wife's annual senior pasta dinner—reveals how small, consistent acts turn a roster into a family.The stories are the heart: an unforgettable 3–2, bases‑loaded walk‑off that still gives chills, Evan White's first-base artistry that later earned a Gold Glove, and the all-time trio he'd choose to ride with—Bench behind the plate, Gibson or Koufax on the hill, and Mickey Mantle in the box. If you coach, play, or simply love baseball, you'll leave with a blueprint for sustainable success: teach clean fundamentals, correct fast and lift faster, respect the craft, and trust your people when the season shrinks to a single pitch.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a coach or parent who cares about culture, and leave a quick review so more baseball people can find us.Join the Baseball Coaches Unplugged podcast where an experienced baseball coach delves into the world of high school and travel baseball, offering insights on high school baseball coaching, leadership skills, hitting skills, pitching strategy, defensive skills, and overall baseball strategy, while also covering high school and college baseball, recruiting tips, youth and travel baseball, and fostering a winning mentality and attitude in baseball players through strong baseball leadership and mentality.Support the show Follow: Twitter | Instagram @Athlete1Podcast Website - https://www.athlete1.net Sponsor: The Netting Professionals https://www.nettingpros.com

Longer term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes and subject to greater volatility than those with shorter maturities. High yield and unrated debt securities are at a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds and may be less liquid, which may increase volatility.

According to San Francisco workers, the hustle culture of the pre-pandemic days has returned in the form of long working days and weekends at the office. So called “996 work”, which originates from China's tech scene, is a work schedule that starts at 9 a.m. and ends at 9 p.m., six days a week. The hustle isn't new to Silicon Valley, but the hyper-competitive AI tech race and the fact that some employers are making 996 mandatory for its staff, or using it as a recruitment filter, could lead to uncharted territory. We talk about the origins of 996, the grind culture of Silicon Valley, and whether or not this trend is going to stick. Guests: Carolyn Chen, associate professor of Ethnic Studies at UC Berkeley and co-director, Berkeley Center for the Study of Religion. Author, "Work Pray Code: When Work Becomes Religion in Silicon Valley" Lora Kelley, Journalist and writer covering tech and work Ara Kharazian , economist at Ramp, a tech company focused on financial automation Learn more about your ad choices.

It's been said that in the Fruit of the Spirit list, all of them collectively, practically define the nature of Christ. Even David the Shepherd knew his Messiah was coming. Remember what he said about following his loving God? He said, “Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life!”We instinctively know what goodness is. It's a kind touch, a gentle word, a gift that was unexpected.Micah 6:8 says, “He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?”And in life, we understand the distinction between good and evil. These two—always warring with each other. The key thing to remember in this conflict is that God is good, and infinitely stronger than evil. That's important to remember as we see injustice.What did Micah tell us? That goodness is wrapped up in the choices we make: oppose injustice, love what is kind, and be humble. The truth is, all of us have been given so much good by our good God that it should be second nature to model that for those we meet in our journey.Let's pray.Lord, thank you for your sweet goodness. Sustain us with that goodness for the journey. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Dr Clark continues the series on the Lord's Supper, Nourish and Sustain. This series explores what the Supper is, why it was instituted, how it has been understood in the history of the church, what Scripture says, how we should understand it, and practice it. The Lord's Supper is one of the two sacraments instituted by our Lord Jesus Christ. A sacrament is a sign and seal of Holy Spirit-given benefits. Where baptism is the sign and seal of initiation into Christ-confessing covenant community, the Lord's Supper is the sign and seal of renewal and personal appropriation of the benefits promised in the covenant of grace. Tragically, since the mid-ninth century at least, holy communion, which is intended to bring Christ's people together, has often been a source of division. Perhaps worse, however, for much of the last one hundred fifty years, the Supper has been much neglected among evangelicals. In this episode, Dr. Clark concludes the series Nourish and Sustain by sketching out a biblical and historical case for weekly observance of the Lord's Supper.

HEADLINE: Why Republicans Struggle to Cut Spending GUEST NAME: Adam Michel SUMMARY: John Batchelor speaks with Adam Michel arguing Republicans excel at selling tax cuts but fail to sell spending cuts, which are mathematically necessary to sustain tax cuts. Both taxes and spending distort incentives. Michel contends that spending cuts are not austerity but reforms that improve lives, referencing how 1990s welfare reforms helped people exit poverty.

Clinical psychologist Annia Raja discusses her article "Why more physicians are quietly starting therapy." Annia explains how growing numbers of physicians are turning to therapy—not because they are failing, but because they are recognizing they cannot carry the weight of medicine alone. She outlines cultural shifts that are breaking down the "invincible doctor" myth, from generational openness to the impact of the pandemic, and highlights what doctors are really seeking in therapy: depth, safety, and understanding. Annia also emphasizes why quiet participation still matters, how therapy can be an investment in career longevity, and how these changes benefit both physicians and patients. Listeners will take away insights into how therapy is reshaping medical culture and why healing the healers is essential for the future of care. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

On this edition of the Wisconsin Sports Game Review podcast, Charlie covers off on the Milwaukee Brewers Game 1 win over the Chicago Cubs, then talks about the NFL Week 5 slate through the lens of the Green Bay Packers. The podcast begins with Charlie discussing why the Milwaukee Brewers needed a game like Saturday. He goes over the other hot start from the bye team (Toronto) and wonders if the Brewers can do the same. He hands out Golden Kegs for the Brewers' win against the Cubs. Who played the worst? Who played the best? He also does a little NFL analysis and declares that no one is scary in either conference, which bodes well for the Green Bay Packers.

Christopher B. Zeichmann, scholar of religion and antiquity, joined me in an enlightening discussion about his new book, Radical Antiquity: Free Love Zoroastrians, Farming Pirates, and Ancient Uprisings, released through Pluto Press. We take an uncommon ground-level tour through the ancient Graeco-Roman world. Instead of viewing this period and place through the myopic lens of the elites of these societies—the so-called Great Men of History—Zeichmann impresses upon us the radical forms of democracy that were being practiced and the peoples that were practicing them during this period. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/christopher-zeichmann // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast
