Pakistan lost the series at Lord's. Then the actual news started.Vithushan Ehantharajah is joined by cricinfo senior editor Osman Samiuddin and Pakistan correspondent Danyal Rasool to unpack a fortnight that has moved well past "bad tour" and into something harder to watch — seven players called home mid-series, five uncapped replacements flown in, a head coach removed two Tests into a three-Test tour, and a selection committee issued show cause notices asking them to justify picking Pakistan's leading Test run-scorer.On the show:

SpaceX is looking to expand into Louisiana to build a new launch facility with multiple launch pads for its Starship spacecraft. Then, to walk on the moon, NASA needs new suits. So how do you test them?

On this week's episode, we share our first impressions of the 2026 Toyota BZ Woodland, a 375-hp all-wheel-drive EV that promises more space, extra ground clearance, and a little off-road attitude. But is the Woodland really built for the wilderness—or is it better thought of as a quick, practical electric station wagon? We discuss its surprising acceleration, EPA-rated range, cargo area, infotainment and controls, and overly sensitive driver-monitoring system. Plus, we answer an audience question about why cars don't have automatic rain-sensing rear wipers, which turned into a debate over whether cars really need rear windshield wipers at all.   Join CR at https://CR.org/joinviaYT to access our comprehensive ratings for items you use every day.

Markets are testing support after three straight days of selling, with technology and semiconductors leading the weakness. The S&P 500 is moving toward its 50-DMA as September seasonality, upcoming corporate buyback blackouts, and quarter-end repositioning add to downside risk. But this remains a normal market pullback, not a reason to panic. With volatility still unusually low and markets not yet deeply oversold, investors should keep the weakness in context. Now is the time to manage risk, take profits where appropriate, rebalance portfolio allocations, and raise some cash rather than make emotional decisions.

A low-flying plane was the least of Springbok fans worries (literally, it wasn't a big deal, calm down) as the Boks managed to close out a needlessly nervy second Test to keep the rivalry tour alive. Malcolm Marx was adjusting his brake foot like an anxious Airlink backseat pilot, while the Boks' kick-chase was the real air show on the day. What changed between the two Tests, and how do the boys see that playing out in Test 3? You'll have to listen to find out. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

Macro 'is getting a bit of a gut check today,' says Charles Schwab's Joe Mazzola, pointing to a steady climb in crude oil prices and Treasury yields as key drivers. He warns investors of a low VIX as something to mind amid all the geopolitical uncertainty and suggests hedging strategies as a way to protect portfolios. Joe tells investors to mind the S&P 500 (SPX) as well, believing a push below current levels will lead to a further flush.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

We all do it—the little "tests" we give our spouses without ever telling them they're being tested. Will he notice? Will she remember? Does he even see me? Does she even care? Maybe it's the party we planned, the extra hours we put in at work, or that new haircut or dress we're hoping they'll notice. We put in the effort…and then quietly wait to see if they pass the test. And when they don't? Well, let's just say it doesn't always go the way we hoped. So why do we do this? And is there a better way to get the connection and attention we're really longing for?

Can you take the mark of the beast by accident? Get it through an RFID chip? A vaccine? A barcode to buy and sell? It's a question that's kept believers concerned, especially with new technologies appearing. But most answers on the Internet start in the wrong place. Michael Rowntree starts in the Bible with Ezekiel and Deuteronomy.ABOUT THIS EPISODEMichael walks through Revelation 13:16–18, then follows it back to its Old Testament roots. His case: the mark of the beast was never a physical mark, but a spiritual insignia, a counterfeit of God's own seal. What it actually signifies is allegiance.Join Michael to understand:- Why Ezekiel 9 and Deuteronomy 6 hold the real key to interpreting Revelation 13:16–18- How the seal of God in Revelation 7:3 and 14:4 and the mark of the beast counterfeit each other- Why the mark speaks of allegiance, ownership, and protection, and why none of those happen to you by accident- A closer look at gematria, the practice of calculating 666 to pin down a specific antichrist, and why Michael thinks it falls short- What Michael believes it actually means to prepare for the mark of the beast today0:00 – Introduction1:11 – Revelation 13 Mark Text3:34 – Seal Context Revelation 6-77:55 – Ezekiel 9 Background10:00 – Deuteronomy 6 Background11:57 – Counterfeits in Revelation 1313:40 – Daniel 7 & the Four Beasts15:27 – Tests of Allegiance18:46 – Technology and the Mark20:20 – Decoding 66623:48 – The World Made Right25:21 – Hope in Revelation

Dead bedroom marriage and sexless relationship problems often trace back to shit tests men fail without realizing it, and this excerpt from Get Her to F*ck You Again breaks down why. Paul Bauer covers why shit tests intensify the longer a marriage goes on as men slip into complacency and lose the frame she originally married, why emotional stability determines whether you pass or fail, and why reacting defensively is the exact signal that kills attraction in a sexless marriage.➡️ Grab Get Her To F*ck You Again: https://mybook.to/GHTFYA

In this podcast, Rob and Shahrooz dive deep into the "Islamic Dilemma"—a popular Christian apologetic argument—and reframe it through the lens of progressive revelation and the Bahá'í Faith. They explore how subsequent religious dispensations often appear to contradict previous ones on the surface, creating "stumbling blocks" that test a believer's sincerity and spiritual insight. By drawing parallels with how Christianity challenged Judaism, how Buddhism interacted with Hinduism, and even how the Mosaic law differed from the time of Joseph, they argue that these "dilemmas" are a recurring divine pattern designed to challenge the intellect and the heart. Ultimately, the discussion emphasizes the need for empathy, independent investigation, and looking past surface-level contradictions to find the underlying unity and truth across religious traditions.Links:Podcast (apple): https://goo.gl/CM4TmVPodcast (android): https://goo.gl/ovLmpsPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/bridgingbeliefsFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/BridgingBeliefs9Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/bridgingbeliefs9/X:  https://x.com/BridgingBeliefsThe Official Bahá'í site:  http://www.bahai.org/No videos on this channel are monetized nor are for commercial purposes.Support the show

In this episode, we kick things off by examining the heated regulatory battle over the proposed mega-merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern. The Class I railroads are aggressively defending their application, telling the Surface Transportation Board that ⁠their filing contains extensive evidence demonstrating benefits for employees, customers and the broader economy⁠. The combined company promises new single-line service across more than eighty-eight thousand county-to-county lanes and the diversion of two point one million truckloads from highway to rail. Meanwhile, a brutal wave of financial distress is hitting the freight and logistics sector as ⁠at least twenty-one transportation companies filed for bankruptcy protection between late July and August twenty-fifth⁠. The filings range from single-truck carriers to massive national distributors with hundreds of millions in assets and liabilities, underscoring how financial hardship remains uneven across the freight economy as small trucking companies struggle alongside larger logistics businesses confronting debt loads and restructuring challenges. Finally, we explore how federal regulators are moving ahead with pilot programs that could fundamentally reshape how truck drivers manage their workdays. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration announced Thursday that ⁠it has completed pre-tests for its Flexible Sleeper Berth and Split Duty Period pilot programs⁠ and is reviewing results ahead of a planned full launch in twenty twenty-seven. The Split Duty Period pilot would allow participating drivers to pause the critical fourteen-hour driving window for up to three hours per day, effectively giving drivers more ability to wait out heavy traffic or severe weather. ⁠Follow the FreightWaves Today Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us Fan MailPart two of two. If you send a specimen to an outside lab and they bill you eighteen dollars for it, eighteen dollars is the most you can bill Medicare. Not your contracted rate. That is the anti-markup rule, and it is one of two things that quietly rewrite the math on in-office lab. What to pull first. Start from your last 90 days of reference lab orders, grouped by test name and CPT code. That is demand, not a projection. Then map each test to its PAMA rate from the CMS Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule, and check whether your commercial payers hold a separate lab fee schedule from your office visit schedule. Many do. How Medicare lab billing works. Medicare pays the lesser of your billed charge or the PAMA rate, and there is no negotiating it. Billing $45 against an approximately $18 rate pays approximately $18. The anti-markup rule then says that if you did not perform the test yourself under your own CLIA certificate, you cannot bill Medicare above what the reference lab charged you. And ordering provider enrollment matters, because lab bills under the ordering NPI directly and incident-to does not apply. The four costs that get underestimated. Reagent per reportable result, QC materials run daily whether or not you test a patient, proficiency testing for moderately complex, and staff time. That last one decides it: five to fifteen minutes per rapid test, which at twenty tests a day is $42 to $175 in daily labor. The honest ceiling. On rapid strep at a blended $19 with about $10.80 of variable cost, contribution margin is $8.20 a test and break-even is about 43 tests a month. A practice converting 126 of 180 referred strep tests clears roughly $681 a month from strep alone. A full waived menu at good volume might reach $3,000 to $6,000 a month. Real money, and a real compliance program. Three actions this week Have your billing team pull 90 days of send-out orders grouped by test name and CPT code. That single report is your demand baseline. Look up the current PAMA rate for every test on your candidate menu at the CMS Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule for your year and locality. Check how your send-out tests are currently being billed to Medicare against the anti-markup rule, before you model anything new. Episode breakdown Segment 1: what to pull before any revenue projection Segment 2: how Medicare lab billing actually works, three rules Segment 3: the business case model and a worked break-evenResources Practice Financial Health Dashboard for Physicians  eligibility.natrevmd.com/free-practice-financial-health-dashboard-for-physicians-natrevmd RECOVER Diagnostic  eligibility.natrevmd.com/recover-quiz-lp CMS Clinical Laboratory Fee Schedule  cms.gov/medicare/payment/fee-schedules/clinical-laboratory Trusted resources library  natrevmd.com/trusted-resources/ Part 1: EP207, should you bring lab testing in-house?

Investors are keeping a close eye on Jackson Hole for signals on the economic outlook and the path for rates. Our Chief U.S. economist Michael Gapen joins Global Head of Macro Strategy Matthew Hornbach to discuss whether markets get what they want—or what the Fed needs.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Matt Hornbach: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Matthew Hornbach, Global Head of Macro Strategy at Morgan Stanley. Michael Gapen: And I'm Michael Gapen, Chief U.S. Economist. Matt Hornbach: Today, we'll be discussing the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium and Chairman Warsh's opening remarks. It's Thursday, August 27th at 10am in New York. So, Mike, let's get right into it and talk about the upcoming opening remarks by Chairman Warsh at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium that will be delivered to the public at 10 am tomorrow, Friday. How are you thinking about what to expect from those opening remarks? Michael Gapen: Well, historically, and by historically, I mean in a post-2008-2009 world, Jackson Hole has been used, not every year, but frequently as a venue to communicate to markets. The longest gap on the Fed's meeting calendar is between the July and September meetings. So, Jackson Hole falls between that and provides a useful opportunity to communicate what might be coming. That's what's normally been done. Warsh has repeatedly stated he wants the Fed to talk less and communicate less and say less. So, I don't think we will see or hear, in this case, a lot about his views about how the economy is operating today and how monetary policy may be conducted into year-end. So, I don't think we'll hear a lot about, say, the December; the outlook for the economy from September to December, and what it might imply for interest rate policy or balance sheet policy. So, little in the way of near-term forward guidance. I do think, however, he did say in the July press conference that the venue would be good to tackle some of these big questions that he has talked about, that he's created these task forces for. So, whether it is the balance sheet or the inflation framework, or communication or AI and productivity or data quality and so forth. This would provide, I think, a reasonable opportunity for him to start talking about that. I don't think maybe we'll get a lot of conclusions. But I would look for commentary that's more in the question; or in the spirit of those big questions and less about the near-term conduct of policy.So maybe not what markets want, but this is what markets will get. Matt Hornbach: Just rewinding a bit, the conference itself is on a somewhat of a niche topic. What exactly is the conference about? And, in terms of the papers that get released at the conference, do you have any sense as to where they might be headed? Michael Gapen: So, the topic of this conference, the economic symposium, as you noted, is Financial Innovation: [its] Implications for [the] Payments [system] and [monetary] Policy. So, I would expect there to be a lot of sessions for things like central bank digital currencies or stable coins or Bitcoins. Near money type innovation that has happened in recent years, which leads to things like competition for deposits from the non-financial sector vis-a-vis the financial sector. So, a competition of near moneyness to money, if you will. Its implications for the interaction between the non-financial system and the financial system, competition for deposits. Does it create risks around financial disintermediation? And therefore, how might the regulatory environment and monetary policy work in that world? So little more, I'll call it, esoteric and maybe arm's length from the day-to-day conduct of policy. But I would look at the speeches probably in that vein. Deposit competition, financial market stability, and what kind of regulatory framework might you need to ensure we can still conduct policy effectively in that world. Matt Hornbach: Sounds like an exciting set of papers… Michael Gapen: Yes. Yes. Matt Hornbach: … for professors to read through. Michael Gapen: This is why they don't often leak the schedule too far in advance, right? We all might decide not to listen. Matt Hornbach: Indeed. Well, it is the end of August, and people are probably still on holiday here and there… Michael Gapen: I'm doing my best, but you called me in today. Matt Hornbach: Yeah, the least I could do. So, you did mention that this might be an opportunity for Chairman Warsh to maybe spotlight a bit these task forces and the topics that they're tackling, one of which is the inflation framework. And that word framework, I think, is important because the investors that we've been speaking with are frustrated that the Fed has not really laid out a framework – for monetary policymaking in this new era of Chairman Warsh, and his leadership at the Fed. So, I'm curious, if we're not going to get forward guidance on monetary policy and what will happen at the next meeting. And we're also not going to get much forward guidance on the framework that the Fed is using to decide on what to do with short-term interest rates. What are we meant to think about the framework? Michael Gapen: Yeah, I think ultimately, of course, we're going to need to know this, and this is what economists would refer to as the ‘difference between forward guidance and the "reaction function." So, the framework is really, you've got a set of tools, how do you intend to use them to achieve your objectives? A conventional Fed would say, "Well, if interest rates are low and inflation's too high, then we should raise rates," right? So high inflation brings high interest rates, low inflation brings low interest rates. All else equal, there's still the employment side of the mandate, of course. And the market had that view, at least initially, right? As we were in the June-July period and Warsh was talking hawkishly, the curve generally flattened. Expectations for front-end yields moved higher, and inflation-fighting credibility maybe kept the back end stable or brought the back end down. So, you could argue the markets looked at Warsh as maybe bringing a conventional reaction function and a conventional framework. But in the June and July FOMC meeting and in conversations with the press during the press conferences, Warsh – I don't want to say backtracked. He just didn't validate that and did say that we will achieve price stability. Didn't quite say how he would use the tools to do that. And even suggested maybe interest rates weren't the primary mechanism with which to influence, create, deliver price stability. So, the curve then steepened out. So, I think the market is wondering what Fed chair we have and what his reaction function is? And if inflation's running hot, is it an interest rate answer or is it a balance sheet answer? I'd also just add one last thing, Matt, is it makes a difference what the rest of the 18 people on the FOMC think. [Be]cause I think you would agree, and I'll put forward right now, I think they have a largely conventional view. Half of the committee thought it was time to raise rates in June. So, we have a balance between not knowing the chair's framework and having to intuit it. Or hope that we hear more. But then also knowing the other 18 who could band together and have greater voting power act in a largely conventional framework. I think that's the debate and the dilemma that we're all dealing with. Matt Hornbach: Yeah, I think investors, have certainly expressed frustration about the lack of guidance in any form or fashion. Perhaps with the exception of the balance sheet; we have a general idea that the balance sheet will be smaller in the future. And we have a sense from what Chairman Warsh has said in front of the House of Representatives during his semi-annual testimony that any changes would happen gradually over time. But, in terms of the pricing of the July meeting, and what happened at the July meeting, investors were very disappointed that the Fed did not go ahead and raise rates in July. Now, the market was only assigning about a one in three odds of a rate hike in July. And so, the fact that the Fed did not go ahead and raise interest rates in July was not a surprise in the sense of market pricing. But I do sense that investors were frustrated; that because they didn't get much forward guidance going into the July meeting, that the market might not have priced more probability on a July rate hike because the Fed, in fact, did not signal that they were leaning in that direction. But I see it as somewhat ironic because it seems to me, and I'd like to get your view on this. It seems to me that Chairman Warsh doesn't want to provide that type of specificity. He'd rather have the markets tell him what to do at an upcoming meeting, as opposed to him telling markets what to do at an upcoming meeting. How do you think about that? Michael Gapen: Oh, I think it's… [It] strains credibility to think that by saying nothing, you get the market's interpretation of the economy, data, and events – without the market thinking what the Fed thinks about it. I don't think that there's a world where you get the unvarnished market expectation independent of the Fed. So, I don't personally agree in the analogy of the market should play the ball and not the referee. The Fed is not a referee in markets. The Fed is a player in markets. Monetary policy acts through financial markets to achieve a set of financial conditions to deliver price stability and maximum employment. So, the Fed and markets are on the field at the same time. The Fed, in some ways, is the 800-pound gorilla on the field at the same time. So, everybody else on the field has to know what the gorilla is doing in order to do what they're supposed to do. Yes, there's always some circularity between Fed communication and market reaction to that. But I think that's natural and normal and important in making monetary policy effective – meaning it has to transmit through financial markets. And so, you could diminish the effectiveness of monetary policy if you don't tell the market what, at least what your framework is and what your reaction function is. And the tools that you intend to use and how you would intend to use them. Then the market could be an inefficient transmitter of monetary policy. So, I disagree with the notion that by saying less, the Fed learns more. But that's my view. I'm one of many. That's my opinion. The chair obviously has a different view. Matt Hornbach: Well, I can certainly understand not wanting to be the referee, especially after what we saw at the World Cup. There were a couple of games where the referee… Michael Gapen: And nobody likes the referee. At least half the people are upset with the referee. Matt Hornbach: Indeed. Okay. So, Mike, I think we're going to leave it there. Michael Gapen: Thanks for having me on, Matt. Matt Hornbach: And thanks for listening.

Donald Trump's approach to Iran has increasingly become a test of whether American economic power can still compel other countries to follow Washington's lead. His latest secondary sanctions strategy is based on a familiar idea: if direct pressure on Iran has failed to produce the desired political outcome, the United States can increase the pressure by targeting countries and companies that continue to do business with Tehran. The problem is that this strategy brings China directly into the confrontation—and China has considerable leverage of its own. Independent media has never been more important.

On this special episode of The BYC Podcast, Dylan Cleaver and ACC Head G Lane are joined by Black Caps Test Skipper and Great New Zealander Tom Latham (00:00)! Tom Latham opens up on Black Caps glory, dressing-room banter and a golf game that needs serious work. If anyone still thinks Tom Latham is one of New Zealand cricket's most understated stars, his latest appearance on The BYC Podcast only reinforces it. Fresh off a remarkable run that has seen the Black Caps conquer India away and win a Test series in England, the veteran opener and captain reflected on a golden era for New Zealand cricket with equal parts humility, humour and quiet confidence. Latham revealed he is potentially just five Tests away from reaching the coveted 100-Test milestone, a feat achieved by only a handful of New Zealand cricketers. When asked who he would choose to present his commemorative cap, his answer was a nostalgic one: childhood hero Brendon McCullum, along with other cricketing idols such as Adam Gilchrist and Mike Hussey, a controversial pick given his 100th Test may well come against Hussey and Gilchrist's countrymen at the MCG on Boxing Day. The conversation also revisited the Black Caps' memorable triumph in England, particularly the remarkable opening partnership between Latham and Devon Conway at Trent Bridge. Latham described the satisfaction of helping set the tone in a series-deciding Test and said the tour would likely become a benchmark for future New Zealand teams. But this wasn't all serious cricket discussion. One of the more entertaining chats came when Latham was asked who would be the worst person in the Black Caps dressing room to control the team playlist. The answer? Daryl Mitchell, whose music selections were apparently influenced a little too much by his young daughters messing with his playlist algorithm. Latham also revealed a different side to towering fast bowler Will O'Rourke, describing how the usually expressionless speedster became visibly fired up during the England tour. According to the skipper, that's not something opposing batters should enjoy seeing. Away from cricket, listeners also learn about Latham's childhood rugby ambitions (a former hooker who "retired" at 15), his first ever cricket bat (cut down by "Barry the Batman"), and why a player renowned for one of the finest straight drives in world cricket still can't consistently hit a golf drive down the middle. "Get me 100 metres out and I'm dynamite," he joked. "Get me off the tee and I'm a 36 handicap golfer."

A teacher came in for migraines and weight loss with a stack of leaky gut test results and a diagnosis that never fixed her. Shiv K. Goel is a board-certified internal medicine and functional medicine physician who argues that leaky gut is not a diagnosis but a physiological response, and that the upstream driver is often chronic stress and a dysregulated cortisol rhythm. This episode is based on his article "Why your leaky gut tests aren't fixing your symptoms," published on KevinMD. You will hear why a normal scope and an IBS label can still leave a patient uncured, why no single permeability test is reliable on its own, and why objective results still matter because they drive patient adherence. He explains why he reaches for sleep, stress reduction, and targeted support over a generic supplement stack, and why you should neither dismiss patients with normal labs nor over-order unvalidated panels. Press play to hear why the fix starts with the story behind the symptoms, not the next panel. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.
