Isaiah 51:1–2 instructs us to, "Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you." In this episode, David and Jo Ann Seely unpack their article "The Ten Tests of Abraham and Sarah," uncovering how Abraham and Sarah emerge as models of covenant discipleship. The Seelys explore how these tests developed in scriptural commentary, highlight Sarah's often-overlooked trials, and discuss connections to the Book of Abraham. From this episode, we can gain a deeper understanding of how ancient traditions can illuminate the covenant path and enrich our own discipleship.

Lern just got back from seeing Nine Inch Nails and apparently the lighting design deserves its own Grammy. We're talking gauze curtains, delayed shadows, industrial rave vibes, and Trent Reznor absolutely refusing to high-five Tim like a majestic goth gazelle sprinting through the crowd. It's concert chaos in the best possible way — from the DJ opener bleeding seamlessly into the show, to the setlist swaps that made the St. Louis crowd feel personally chosen.We break down the Peel It Back tour experience, including the “Frail into Reptile” moment that sent fans spiraling (in a good way), the zippers-per-capita record inside Enterprise Center, and the emotional high of being in the same airspace as your music heroes. Remember when just being in the same room as your favorite artist felt life-changing? Yeah, we went there. Hard.But because this is a comedy podcast and we cannot stay focused for more than 12 consecutive minutes, the conversation pivots into something much more responsible: inflation rage. Concert tickets, movie theaters, $15 waters, delivery apps, streaming services we barely use but refuse to cancel, and the emotional damage of a $12 Lion's Choice meal. Are we becoming our parents? Possibly. Are we mad about it? Absolutely.Then we spiral (again) into hypothetical chaos:$10 million but you lose 10 years of life?$50 million but you lose all your friends?$1 million but you're stuck in St. Louis forever?$500,000 but you can't complain for five years (so… impossible)?The answers are revealing. And slightly concerning.We also dive into the so-called “singles tax,” the surprising numbers behind OnlyFans income (sorry Scott), and the underdog effect — why being told you'll fail might actually be rocket fuel. It's part concert recap, part financial therapy session, part existential crisis — aka your favorite comedy podcast doing what it does best.Industrial rock. Inflation anger.

Have you been told you have low progesterone — and the solution was birth control, hormone therapy, or progesterone supplements — but no one could explain why your progesterone is low in the first place? Or maybe you've never had testing confirm it, but you're wondering if you may have low progesterone based on your symptoms — insomnia, anxiety, cycle issues, fertility struggles. Or maybe you've tried all. the. things. for low progesterone in women — supplements, birth control, natural treatments, cycle syncing — but nothing has actually changed… and you're left wondering what else there is to do? If you said "yes" to any of these, this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I'm taking conditions that are commonly labeled as root causes — and breaking down to you what their REAL root causes are. This is super powerful because understanding a fake vs. real root cause is the difference between healing from your symptoms permanently... or not. Today's topic: low progesterone. In this episode, I'm breaking down:The most common low progesterone signs and symptoms in womenWhy low progesterone isn't a root causeWhy birth control, IUDs, and even “natural” progesterone support miss the mark to healing your WHOLE bodyThe 6 real root causes quietly driving low progesteroneAnd the 5 tests you need to do find your specific root causes - and naturally bring progesterone back up And one more thing — for this entire Real Root Cause Series, I've created visual guides to help you see the big picture clearly. If you're a visual learner or want this laid out simply, head to betterbellytherapies.com/root to download the graphic that goes with this episode. Because when you stop trying to force progesterone up… and start removing what's suppressing it — that's when you start to see real, true, whole body transformation.

There were more than 70,000 cases of alleged drug use during pregnancy sent to law enforcement officials across 21 states over six years, including Oregon. As reported in The Marshall Project, these cases involved unreliable drug tests that show inaccurate results, are difficult to read or are simply wrong. In Oregon, and in 12 other states, welfare agencies automatically report any positive test result to authorities. Shoshana Walter is a staff writer for The Marshall Project and reported on this trend with Jill Castellano. Walter joins us to share more on these tests.

In this episode of The Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Ian Stones, co founder of Testhim, to talk about something that should be simple but still too often isn't. Testing men.We talk a lot in fertility about women's bodies, women's hormones, women's investigations. But male fertility accounts for around a third of infertility cases, and yet men are still frequently an afterthought.Ian and I explore when men should be tested, what those tests actually look like, why semen analysis is not always enough, and how men can advocate for themselves earlier in the process.If you are dealing with male factor infertility, recurrent loss, unexplained infertility, or you simply want to understand more about sperm health, this episode is for you.And if you are the partner trying to get a reluctant man to engage with this conversation, please share it.What we discuss in this episode:Why male fertility testing is often delayedWhen to start investigating male fertilityWhy semen analysis is only the starting pointThe role of sperm DNA fragmentation in recurrent miscarriageWhat a varicocele is and how it affects sperm qualityWhy testicular scans matterHow infections and oxidative stress impact sperm healthThe importance of seeing a male fertility specialist, not just a general urologistWhy lifestyle changes should happen at least three months before trying to conceiveThe impact of heat, cycling, tight underwear and hot tubsAlcohol, diet and BMI in sperm healthWhy men need to know their anatomy and check for lumps and changesThe emotional experience of male infertility and feeling like the spare partHow proactive testing could reduce repeated failed IVF cyclesWhat Testhim actually doesTesthim offers:Advanced male fertility testingA detailed male fertility questionnaire to build a personalised risk profileSperm DNA fragmentation testingOxidative stress testingTesticular ultrasound scansFollow up calls to explain results clearlyAccess to male fertility urology specialists across the UKMonthly male fertility support groupsA dedicated male fertility podcastTheir questionnaire...

In Episode 362 of the Mixing Music Podcast, hosts Dee Kei and Lu start with a wild weekend recap that includes long work hours, live sound chaos, and a massive rally in downtown Los Angeles. Dee Kei shares how he went from one gig to another while traffic was locked up, and even ended up unintentionally marching with a protest on the way to the next event. He describes the scale of the rally setup, including flying dozens of line arrays to cover an enormous crowd, and then later connects that experience to one of the core themes of the episode: fundamentals matter more than fancy gear.The main conversation is sparked by a viral-style audio story: a blind listening test where people could not reliably tell the difference between audio passed through standard copper wire, a banana, or wet mud. Dee Kei and Lu use the article as a jumping-off point to talk about how easy it is for audio culture to become obsessed with mysticism, status, and expensive objects rather than results. They point out that even when engineers care deeply about details, most listeners respond to vibe, emotion, and impact, not the mythology around cables, converters, or obscure technical flexes.From there, the episode expands into a bigger discussion about anti-intellectualism in the Zen sense, not anti-intelligence. The idea is that practical experience, experimentation, and real listening should take priority over rigid theories, cheat sheets, and secondhand rules. They talk about how knowing everything about a compressor on paper is not the same as using it well in context, and how taste and emotional translation are often more important than technical trivia. They connect this to why AI may automate some low-stakes, background-music needs, but will not fully replace the human judgment behind great mixing and music made for music's sake.The guys also get into the social side of the industry, including how insecurity can show up as a need to prove people wrong, and how being “the smartest person in the room” does not matter if you make everyone miserable. They share stories about people who are technically knowledgeable but communicate with a defensive, correcting energy that makes others want to exit the conversation. Dee Kei frames it as a lack of contentment and an obsession with being right instead of being useful.Later, they bring the conversation back to growth and practice: why daily reps matter, how to get better by accelerating mistake-making, and why it helps to mix for real people with opinions rather than only practicing in a vacuum. They talk about practical ways to practice recording and mixing when you do not have a studio, like using rehearsal spaces, booking an affordable studio day, or working with local bands in exchange for experience. Dee Kei also emphasizes a simple principle he has said before: if you want to get good, start mixing faster and start making decisive choices with intention.To close, they reflect on humility, responsibility, and long-term improvement, including an example of how top performers stay grounded under pressure, plus a nuanced comparison of how gratitude can be framed differently in American versus Japanese culture. The episode ends with a reminder to focus on the craft over the distractions, keep it fun, and keep learning.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!⁠SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBE⁠Join the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LU⁠HIRE JAMES⁠Find Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by ⁠Izotope⁠, ⁠Antares (Auto Tune)⁠, Sweetwater, ⁠Plugin Boutique⁠, ⁠Lauten Audio⁠, ⁠Filepass⁠, & ⁠Canva⁠The Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

Die Polizei kritisiert die mangelnde Kooperation bei Cyberbetrug. Experten fordern mehr Investitionen in den Kundenschutz

Anzeigen wegen Cyberbetrug haben sich seit 2020 mehr als verdoppelt. Schützen die Banken ihre Kunden zu wenig gegen Cyberbetrug? Polizei und ein Cybercrime-Experte kritisieren im «Kassensturz» die Banken. Ausserdem: Sommerpneus im Test. Und die Frage nach dem Recht am eigenen Bild. Cyberbetrug – Banken in der Kritik Die Zahl der Cyberbetrug-Anzeigen hat sich seit 2020 auf über 42'000 mehr als verdoppelt. «Kassensturz» zeigt das Beispiel von Chloé, die durch Cyberkriminelle 25'000 Franken verloren hat. Schützen die Banken ihre Kunden zu wenig vor Cyberbetrug? Die Polizei kritisiert die mangelnde Kooperation bei Cyberbetrug. Experten fordern mehr Investitionen in den Kundenschutz. In Grossbritannien sind Banken neu zur Entschädigung von Opfern verpflichtet. Die Betrugsfälle sind seitdem massiv zurückgegangen. Im Interview stellt sich die Schweizerische Bankiervereinigung den kritischen Fragen von «Kassensturz». Test Sommerpneus – Sicherheit hat ihren Preis Der neuste TCS-Sommerreifen-Test zeigt: Es gibt grosse Unterschiede bei den Pneus. Im Test werden 16 Reifenmodelle sowohl in puncto Fahrsicherheit als auch hinsichtlich der Umweltaspekte bewertet. Während Billigreifen deutliche Schwächen bei der Fahrsicherheit und beim Verschleiss aufweisen, überzeugen die Testsieger bei der Sicherheit – was lebensrettend sein kann. Ausserdem zeigt sich: Nicht nur die Sicherheit wird mit den richtigen Reifen erhöht, sondern auch der Treibstoff-Verbrauch reduziert. Ganz zur Freude des Portemonnaies. «Darf man das?» – Wann gilt das Recht am eigenen Bild? Ein Selfie vor dem Eiffelturm. Ein Foto am Bad-Bunny-Konzert. Eine Aufnahme an der Olma. Gänzlich allein ist man auf solchen Bildern eigentlich nie. Doch darf man solche Aufnahmen einfach veröffentlichen, zum Beispiel auf Social-Media-Kanälen, wenn im Hintergrund fremde Menschen klar erkennbar sind? «Kassensturz»-Rechtsexpertin Gabriela Baumgartner sagt, was gilt.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) A powerful winter storm has isolated New York City and hobbled transport networks, threatening to be among its worst on record, with 41 million people across the US East Coast facing blizzard conditions. The storm shut down the vast majority of flights out of the region’s largest airports on Monday, including in the New York area and in Boston. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani declared a state of emergency and closed streets, highways and bridges to most traffic after 9 p.m. Sunday until noon Monday. Major snowfall of as much as 30 inches is expected across the East Coast in some areas, with the heaviest set through Sunday night and into Monday morning, the National Weather Service said, making travel impossible.2) Senior US officials said President Trump’s tariff defeat at the Supreme Court won’t unravel deals negotiated with US partners as they sought to defend the administration’s assertive trade policies. Those deals — which the administration made with partners including China, the European Union, Japan and South Korea — remain in place, US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Sunday on CBS’s Face the Nation. He sought to separate those arrangements from the planned 15% global tariff Trump announced Saturday. Friction over the renewed uncertainty spilled out Sunday as the European Parliament’s trade chief said he’ll propose freezing the EU’s ratification of a trade deal with the US until the Trump administration clarifies its policy. In New Delhi, officials cited similar reasons for India postponing talks in the US this week on finalizing an interim trade deal. The US Supreme Court ruling that struck down Trump’s use of emergency authority to wield tariffs preceded his planned trip next month to China. Greer suggested that alternative US trade tools, including those involving investigations of other countries’ trade practices, would give the US leverage.3) The US and Iran are set to resume talks Thursday in Geneva, according to Omani mediators. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said he expects to meet US special envoy Steve Witkoff for the talks and reiterated that Iran won’t be pressured by a US military buildup in the region. Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi said on X that the US-Iran negotiations “are now set for Geneva this Thursday, with a positive push to go the extra mile towards finalizing the deal.” After talks last week, a US official said Iran was expected to return with proposals in two weeks to bridge remaining gaps. The US has orchestrated a massive military buildup in the Middle East including two aircraft carriers as President Trump presses Tehran for a new nuclear deal. Trump said on Friday he’s considering limited strikes on Iran, risking another destabilizing conflict.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Leon du Preez unveils the seven tests that qualify a believer for the double portion, exposing the difference between discipleship and true sonship. Drawing from the journey of Elijah and Elisha, he reveals that mantles do not fall on the casual but on the aligned. Sensitivity, separation, submission, pursuit, loyalty, spiritual sight, and alignment form the pathway into inheritance. The double portion is not mere increase, it is the firstborn blessing that rests on mature sons who can see, discern, and remain steadfast in lineage. This message calls the church out of transition and into identity, where revelation unlocks inheritance and alignment activates power.

Episode 213: HIV PrEP Review H. Nicole Magaña, medical student, reviews the history of PrEP and outlines the currently FDA-approved medications used for HIV prevention. Dr. Arreaza provides additional perspective on long-acting injectable options, including how quickly they begin to protect patients after initiation.   Written by Nicole Magana, MSIV, American University of the Caribbean. Comments and edits by Hector Arreaza, MD. You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice. Pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV. Previous episodes related to HIV:  -Episode 67, HIV history (September 2021) -Episode 68, HIV transmissibility (October 2021) -Episode 70 (October 2021), HIV prevention (including HIV Prep with oral medications) -Episode 98 (June 2022), we introduced Apretude, the first injectable for HIV PrEP. Apretude was approved in December 2021.  What is Pre-Exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)? Pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP, is the use of antiretroviral medications taken by individuals who are HIV-negative to prevent HIV acquisition. There are 30,000 new HIV infections annually in the US.  How effective is it? When taken as prescribed, PrEP is highly effective at reducing the risk of HIV transmission through sexual exposure and injection drug use. Patients who are adherent to PrEP can lower their risk of contracting HIV by 99%. The effectiveness of oral PrEP is highly adherence dependent. In trials with 70% adherence, the relative risk of HIV acquisition was 0.27, compared to 0.51 with 40-70% adherence and no significant benefit with adherence ≤40%. How does PrEP work? PrEP works by maintaining therapeutic drug levels in the bloodstream and in target tissues. If HIV exposure occurs, viral replication is inhibited, preventing the establishment of infection. Brief History of PrEP. The concept of PrEP originated from early animal studies demonstrating that antiretroviral medications could prevent retroviral transmission when administered before exposure. In 2010, the iPrEx trial showed that daily oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (known as Truvada) with emtricitabine significantly reduced HIV acquisition among men who have sex with men and transgender women. This was the first large clinical trial to demonstrate the effectiveness of PrEP. In 2012, the FDA approved oral Truvada, which is TDF/FTC (tenofovir disoproxil and emtricitabine) for HIV prevention. Since then, additional studies have expanded indications and introduced new formulations, including long-acting injectable options. Who Should Be Offered PrEP? PrEP should be considered for any HIV-negative individual at increased risk of HIV acquisition, including Men who have sex with men, transgender individuals, heterosexual men and women with an HIV-positive partner, individuals with recent bacterial sexually transmitted infections, people who inject drugs, individuals engaging in condomless sex with partners of unknown HIV status. Remember that PrEP should be offered in a nonjudgmental, patient-centered manner, make it a safe space to talk openly about prevention of HIV.  Available HIV PrEP Options. Daily Oral PrEP: There are 2 formulations of Tenofovir. There is Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)/ Truvada and Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)/ Descovy. Each is available in a tablet combined with Emtricitabine a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. Truvada: It is approved for all populations at risk through sexual exposure or injection drug use. Something to look out for before starting this medication is for pre-existing CKD. Do not give to patients who have an estimated glomerular filtration rate of less than 60 mL/min. (6) Descovy: This option is approved for men who have sex with men and transgender women but is not approved for individuals at risk through receptive vaginal sex. It has less impact on renal function and bone mineral density compared to Truvada. It can be used in moderately reduced kidney function (GFR between 30-60 mL/min). Truvada and Descovy are taken orally once a day.  After patients start taking these medications, when are they considered to be protected?  Nicole: With daily oral PrEP, guidelines differ with WHO and International Aids Society-USA stating it takes about 7 days, while CDC states 21 days to allow for adequate concentration in tissues (1). Adherence is critical for efficacy. Injectable HIV PrEP. In 2021, the FDA approved the first Injectable PrEP option Long-acting cabotegravir (CAB-LA)- known on the market as Apretude. Cabotegravir is an integrase strand transfer inhibitor administered as an intramuscular injection.Dosing consists of an initial injection, a second injection one month later, and then maintenance injections every two months (1). Another option is Lenacapavir (Yeztugo). The Yeztugo as a pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV in Oct 2024. Yeztugo is the first and only FDA-approved HIV prevention treatment that requires just two injections per year, offering a long-acting option for people who weigh at least 35kg. It is given as 2 injections every 6 months. First dose is given with 2 tablets on Day 1 and Day 2, then every 6 months 2 injections on the same day. Clinical trials, including HPTN 083 and HPTN 084, demonstrated that injectable cabotegravir is superior to daily oral PrEP in preventing HIV infection. This advantage is largely due to improved adherence rather than differences in intrinsic drug potency. There have been no head-to-head comparisons between Yeztugo and Apretude, but they are both very effective. Apretude starts protecting 7 days after the first dose, and Yeztugo starts protecting 2 hours after Day 2 (if patient takes the oral loading dose) or 3-4 weeks if no oral load is taken. Injectable PrEP is particularly beneficial for patients who struggle with daily pill adherence, have trouble swallowing pills, prefer a discreet option, have difficulty storing their medication or have renal or bone disease that limits the use of tenofovir-based regimens like Truvada and Descovy (6). In one unpublished report by Medline, patients who received Apretude had an increase in bone mineral density compared to those who received Truvada (1). Tests prior to starting PrEP. Before initiating PrEP, patients must be confirmed to be HIV-negative. Baseline evaluation includes HIV testing with a fourth-generation antigen/antibody assay, HIV RNA testing if acute infection is suspected, renal function testing for oral PrEP, Hepatitis B screening, sexually transmitted infection screening, and pregnancy testing when appropriate. PrEP should not be started in individuals with known or suspected acute HIV infection. Monitoring for patients on HIV PrEP. Monitoring typically includes HIV testing every 2 to 3 months, STI screening every 3 to 6 months, renal function monitoring for those on oral PrEP (tenofovir- based), ongoing adherence and risk-reduction counseling. And for injectable PrEP, adherence to the injection schedule is essential, as delayed dosing may increase the risk of resistance if HIV infection occurs. HIV PrEP is not a prevention for other STIs. Screening for STIs and counseling about prevention is essential. Breakthrough HIV infections on PrEP are rare and most often associated with poor adherence or delayed diagnosis. Truvada is more studied in all populations and is considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. There is less data regarding the injectable option in patients who are pregnant, may become pregnant, or whose primary risk factor is injection drug use (1). Injectable PrEP provides an important alternative for patients with chronic kidney disease and bone disease (1). Key Takeaway Pre-exposure prophylaxis is a safe, effective, and evidence-based strategy for HIV prevention. With both daily oral and long-acting injectable options available, PrEP can be individualized to meet patient needs. Normalizing PrEP discussions in clinical practice is essential to reducing new HIV infections and advancing public health goals.  Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

El sexto y último día de tests en Baréin nos ha dejado una jornada casi “definitiva” en cuanto a sensaciones de parrilla: mucho trabajo serio, simulaciones de carrera por todas partes y, al mismo tiempo, una bomba de fiabilidad que afecta de lleno a Aston Martin y a su nueva alianza con Honda. Todo esto, analizado a fondo en el último podcast de la semana, analizando el día y la pretemporada. Graves, muy graves problemas. Mientras la mayoría de equipos cerraban programas completos y empezaban a enseñar las mejores vueltas de toda la pretemporada, Aston Martin ha quedado prácticamente fuera de juego: solo seis vueltas en todo el día, un día condicionado por la avería de batería del día anterior y la falta de recambios. Mientras, en pista, el rodaje era muy alto en casi toda la parrilla. Haas (170) y Racing Bulls (165) encabezaron el kilometraje, con Williams (141), Audi (135), Ferrari (132), Mercedes (131) y Red Bull (124) también muy por encima del centenar. McLaren completó 113 giros, y Cadillac se quedó en 99. En ese contexto de normalidad productiva, el dato de Aston Martin no es una anécdota: es un síntoma grave en el peor momento posible, con el inicio de temporada a la vuelta de la esquina. En contraste, para el resto de equipos, la mañana transcurrió con el patrón habitual: aerodinámica al inicio (parrillas de sensores voluminosas en todos) y, después, una sucesión de tandas largas tipo stint de carrera en buena parte de la parrilla. Problemas reales también en otros equipos. Hubo también un incidente relevante: bandera roja por la parada del Mercedes, que dejó entrever problemas reales de unidad de potencia. Se habló de pérdida de presión y el equipo terminó sustituyendo la unidad, sin volver a salir durante buena parte de la mañana. Aun así, Mercedes logró recopilar trabajo valioso más adelante, con Russell firmando tandas largas a ritmo constante en 1:36, aunque sin conocer cargas de combustible. La tarde elevó el nivel. Tras tandas largas desde el inicio (12 a 17 vueltas en varios coches), llegó el tramo más “visible” de los tests: a hora y media del final aparecieron simulaciones de clasificación y vueltas de rendimiento, con los mejores tiempos de toda la pretemporada. Es la típica secuencia del penúltimo y último día: primero se consolida el ritmo de carrera y luego se busca el titular del crono. Lecturas de las simulaciones. En el apartado de simulaciones, el día dejó lecturas claras. Se vieron programas de carrera (no siempre completos) en pilotos como Antonelli antes de la bandera roja, Piastri, Ocon, Lindblad y Sainz. Y simulaciones más completas (o cercanas a serlo) en Pérez, Ocon y Leclerc. En las referencias publicadas, Ocon firmó un promedio mejor que Pérez (1:40.355 frente a una simulación interrumpida y más lenta), y por la tarde aparecieron más tandas largas “limpias” con Lindblad (1:40.694) y Bearman (1:40.307), cada uno con estrategias distintas de compuestos. Una historia de contrastes. Pero el foco real del día estuvo lejos del cronómetro: Honda revienta. El comunicado oficial confirmó que el problema de batería del AMR26 de Alonso obligó a cambiar por completo el plan: programa limitadísimo, solo tandas cortas, y todo ello por escasez de piezas de la unidad de potencia. En otras palabras: Aston Martin llega a Australia sin haber completado una simulación de carrera completa y, peor aún, con una incertidumbre directa sobre la fiabilidad. El temor no es solo “estar lejos en ritmo”; es, literalmente, si podrán completar la distancia de carrera en Melbourne sin volver a romper. El contraste es duro porque el coche no ha pasado desapercibido: el AMR26 se describía como un concepto radical, con potencial de desarrollo y con el factor Newey como argumento a medio plazo. Pero la realidad inmediata es que sin fiabilidad no hay aprendizaje, y sin kilómetros no hay correlación ni mejoras. La temporada puede ser una carrera de fondo, sí, pero las primeras carreras se pueden convertir en un calvario si el paquete no permite ni “ver la bandera a cuadros”. Nuevas soluciones. En paralelo al drama de Honda-Aston, la jornada también dejó titulares técnicos: Mercedes llevó a Baréin una solución llamativa en el alerón trasero, con dos pequeños perfiles anclados al último elemento que permiten trabajar en una zona reglamentaria poco explorada y ganar carga cuando el ala va cerrada. Red Bull, por su parte, siguió mostrando detalles de ingeniería fina (el “truco” del bargeboard en la bandeja de té), y Haas modificó el wakeboard en su proceso de evolución. Qué podemos esperar de la temporada 2026. Fuera de pista, el paddock mira ya cara a cara a 2026. La FIA y los equipos continúan evaluando la compleja gestión energética del nuevo reglamento, con pruebas específicas en Baréin: desde reducciones de potencia del MGU-K para entender su impacto en la recarga, hasta la exploración de soluciones como el “superclipping” a potencias elevadas. La idea de fondo es clara: evitar cambios radicales antes de tener una muestra suficiente de carreras, pero ser proactivos si el sistema obliga a concesiones excesivas en clasificación y, sobre todo, en circuitos poco favorables a recargar energía, como el propio Melbourne. Y como telón de fondo, la F1 también estudia ajustes de formato para animar los viernes, además de mantener el debate sobre aumentar el número de sprints y hasta repetir grandes eventos globales de presentación en futuras temporadas. Es decir: mientras el campeonato afina su producto, en la pista Baréin ya está separando a los que llegan preparados… de los que llegan con incendios internos. El sexto día, en resumen, nos ha dejado una pretemporada que se empieza a “sentenciar” por tendencia: arriba, los equipos capaces de completar programas largos y mostrar rendimiento; y abajo, un Aston Martin atrapado en la pesadilla que ninguna escudería puede permitirse en febrero: romper, no tener piezas y no rodar. En Fórmula 1, el primer rival es el reloj. Y Aston, de momento, ni siquiera está pudiendo correr contra él.

Today's show is part of our Community Spotlight Series, where we feature PassivePockets members who share hard-won lessons to help other LPs invest smarter. Christine Kwasny joins Chris Lopez to walk through a detailed retrospective on her syndication portfolio, what she thought she was buying, what actually happened, and what she'll do differently going forward. Christine started investing actively in 2008, building a Portland-area rental portfolio (single-family renovations that eventually grew into fourplexes). After moving abroad in 2013, she shifted into syndications in 2019–2020 but like many investors, she later found that several 2021–2022 vintage deals didn't play out the way pro formas suggested, which triggered a deep review of her entire process. In this conversation, Christine breaks down the biggest errors she sees investors make (including “set it and forget it”), how distributions can mask problems, how LPs can quietly fall down the capital stack, and how she used AI to analyze years of offering materials and quarterly reports across 30+ investments. She also shares her “Market Metronome” framework, a simple way to sanity-check underwriting assumptions against real historical ranges and market cycles. Key Takeaways “Passive is a tax and legal term, not a verb”: why syndications often require more scrutiny than owning your own rentals How distributions and quarterly reports can create false confidence—and what to look for in the core updates Capital stack drift: how mezz/preferred equity can change your risk even without a capital call Using AI to accelerate due diligence: summarizing OMs, tracking quarter-by-quarter changes, and stress-testing assumptions The “Market Metronome”: a practical way to pressure-test pro formas against historic highs/lows and cycle reality Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

With February being heart health month you may be thinking more about your specific signs or symptoms you may have been feeling. Here's the truth about the heart... Heart‑related symptoms often show up vaguely at first. Subtle palpitations during a meeting or increased heartrate at night when the house finally goes quiet and you are laying down trying to fall asleep. So you do what you know to do... make an appointment and share your concerns. Tests come back normal. Labs look fine. Yet the symptoms remain. This disconnect leaves many high‑achieving women anxious, confused, and questioning their body. From a holistic functional perspective, this is rarely a true heart failure issue...it's a stress‑driven physiology issue. Your stress may not be going away any time soon but you can help your body adapt better to the stress you are living through.  Stress is the root cause of your heart giving you the symptoms and signs it is giving you. Subtly at first and then more often as your body ramps up communication... aka starts yelling at you.  Bottom line, your body needs to feel safe to heal and recover especially from stress related fatigue conditions.  I pray this episode blesses you!

People don't ask me what my standards are, they test them. In this episode, I break down how these tests are usually subconscious and not even malicious, they're just human nature. The way I respond in those small moments teaches people exactly how to treat me going forward. My standards are not what I say or post, they are what I enforce in real time. If I don't hold the line, then I don't actually have standards. Show Notes: [01:34]#1 Tests start small, but they escalate quickly and quietly. [08:26]#2 Emotional reactions signal weak points.  [12:56]#3 Withdrawal is your final test and is your strongest one.   [18:22] Recap Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught. It is enforced. If you are operating in environments where hesitation costs money, authority, or leverage, the Power Presence Mastermind exists as a controlled setting for discipline, execution, and consequence-based decision-making. Details live here: http://PowerPresenceProtocol.com/Mastermind  This Masterclass is the public record of standards. Private enforcement happens elsewhere.
