Their heartbeat is strong, and brain connections are helping control those tiny limbs.Cool Fact: Baby's skin is coated in vernix caseosa, a protective creamy layer you'll see at birth. Plus, they're starting a sleep-wake cycle (which might not match yours!).What's Happening with YouPhysical Changes: Expect a sudden belly pop, round ligament pains, or painless Braxton Hicks contractions (check out Episode 105 for more on these vs. real labor).

In this powerful episode, I bring a passionate word about the urgency of passing the test—not just for ourselves, but for the generations coming after us. Drawing from the lives of Joshua, Caleb, and the Judges of Israel, Jaime unpacks how spiritual battles are won—or lost—based on our willingness to obey, endure, and teach. What you'll learn in this episode: Why your current struggle may be a test God has placed before youHow spiritual inheritance is passed—or squanderedThe danger of letting culture disciple your childrenWhy some battles stay until we learn to fightHow to raise sons and daughters who know how to win God isn't just calling you to survive your season. He's calling you to conquer—and to raise up warriors who know how to do the same.

Add your name and email to our friends of the show list, we'll never share it. Brian #1: Free-threaded Python no longer “experimental” as of Python 3.14 “PEP 779 ("Criteria for supported status for free-threaded Python") has been accepted, which means free-threaded Python is now a supported build!” - Hugo van Kemenade PEP 779 – Criteria for supported status for free-threaded Python As noted in the discussion of PEP 779, “The Steering Council (SC) approves PEP 779, with the effect of removing the “experimental” tag from the free-threaded build of Python 3.14.” We are in Phase II then. “We are confident that the project is on the right path, and we appreciate the continued dedication from everyone working to make free-threading ready for broader adoption across the Python community.” “Keep in mind that any decision to transition to Phase III, with free-threading as the default or sole build of Python is still undecided, and dependent on many factors both within CPython itself and the community. We leave that decision for the future.” How long will all this take? According to Thomas Wouters, a few years, at least: “In other words: it'll be a few years at least. It can't happen before 3.16 (because we won't have Stable ABI support until 15) and may well take longer.” Michael #2: typed-ffmpeg typed-ffmpeg offers a modern, Pythonic interface to FFmpeg, providing extensive support for complex filters with detailed typing and documentation. Inspired by ffmpeg-python, this package enhances functionality by addressing common limitations, such as lack of IDE integration and comprehensive typing, while also introducing new features like JSON serialization of filter graphs and automatic FFmpeg validation. Features : Zero Dependencies: Built purely with the Python standard library, ensuring maximum compatibility and security. User-Friendly: Simplifies the construction of filter graphs with an intuitive Pythonic interface. Comprehensive FFmpeg Filter Support: Out-of-the-box support for most FFmpeg filters, with IDE auto-completion. Integrated Documentation: In-line docstrings provide immediate reference for filter usage, reducing the need to consult external documentation. Robust Typing: Offers static and dynamic type checking, enhancing code reliability and development experience. Filter Graph Serialization: Enables saving and reloading of filter graphs in JSON format for ease of use and repeatability. Graph Visualization: Leverages graphviz for visual representation, aiding in understanding and debugging. Validation and Auto-correction: Assists in identifying and fixing errors within filter graphs. Input and Output Options Support: Provide a more comprehensive interface for input and output options, including support for additional codecs and formats. Partial Evaluation: Enhance the flexibility of filter graphs by enabling partial evaluation, allowing for modular construction and reuse. Media File Analysis: Built-in support for analyzing media files using FFmpeg's ffprobe utility, providing detailed metadata extraction with both dictionary and dataclass interfaces. Michael #3: pyleak Detect leaked asyncio tasks, threads, and event loop blocking with stack trace in Python. Inspired by goleak. Use as context managers or function dectorators When using no_task_leaks, you get detailed stack trace information showing exactly where leaked tasks are executing and where they were created. Even has great examples and a pytest plugin. Brian #4: Optimizing Test Execution: Running live_server Tests Last with pytest Tim Kamanin “When working with Django applications, it's common to have a mix of fast unit tests and slower end-to-end (E2E) tests that use pytest's live_server fixture and browser automation tools like Playwright or Selenium. ” Tim is running E2E tests last for Faster feedback from quick tests To not tie up resources early in the test suite. He did this with custom “e2e” marker Implementing a pytest_collection_modifyitems hook function to look for tests using the live_server fixture, and for them automatically add the e2e marker to those tests move those tests to the end The reason for the marker is to be able to Just run e2e tests with -m e2e Avoid running them sometimes with -m "not e2e" Cool small writeup. The technique works for any system that has some tests that are slower or resource bound based on a particular fixture or set of fixtures.

This episode of High Performance Health is a powerful reminder that the true path to longevity isn’t found in chasing supplement stacks or living to 160—it’s about becoming immune to aging by mastering the fundamentals. Angela sits down with Dr Jenna Macciochi, immunologist, author, and high-performance breathwork coach, to explore how chronic inflammation, lifestyle, mindset, and motherhood all shape our biological age far more than we realize. Dr Jenna's new book Immune to Age presents a revolutionary framework: understanding the immune system as a dynamic force through the seasons of life—from birth to old age. In this heartfelt, science-rich conversation, Jenna and Angela dive into everything from burnout and HRV to intuition, parenting, alcohol, and the myth of the perfect biohacking protocol. This is the longevity conversation every woman needs to hear. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Chronic Inflammation: The Silent Driver of Aging : The immune system's slow burn of inflammation is the root cause behind most chronic diseases and early aging. The Parenting Connection: Children phase-lock to their mother’s HRV—your emotional regulation teaches them how to regulate themselves. Burnout & Intuition: Ignoring your intuition and pushing through stress leads to burnout. Slowing down and listening is the real path to resilience. Longevity Isn’t Just About Data: Healthspan matters more than lifespan. Fancy tests are fun, but it’s the basics—food, movement, sleep, breath—that move the needle. Alcohol, Sleep & Energy: Giving up alcohol even temporarily can have a massive ripple effect on mood, energy, and parenting. Immune System Through the Life Course: From womb to old age, your immune system evolves—and it’s never too early or too late to care for it. TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS: 0:00 – Introduction 3:49 – Why healthspan matters more than lifespan 8:34 – Advice for working women juggling everything 12:15 – How meditation rewires stress and physiology 16:42 – Garbage time, HRV, and parenting insights 22:23 – Female intuition, hormones & relationships 29:10 – Jenna’s daily health and movement routine 34:28 – Alcohol and the “tiny experiment” approach 41:52 – Jenna’s new book: Immune to Age 49:37 – Cancer, inflammation & microbiome connection 59:24 – How to filter conflicting wellness advice 1:00:16 – Tests that matter (and those that don’t) VALUABLE RESOURCES Get a free snapshot of your health and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Join The High Performance Health Community Click here for discounts on all the products I personally use and recommend A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: LVLUP HEALTH: Slow aging, repair gut health boost collagen and recovery and more with LVLUP Health’s amazing products.

As Joseph's brothers return a second time for grain, we see Joe using some tests to reveal the true character of his brothers. It had been over 20 years since they sold him into slavery. Had they changed in that time? Curiously, the tests Joseph uses are similar to tests God uses in our lives—specifically the types of tests that reveal our hearts and show us where we need to grow. God often uses tests of sincerity, of jealousy, and of selflessness to reveal our character and help us grow.

Sometimes, marketing advice gets a little wild, and that's what makes this episode a must-listen. Jay Schwedelson is on a mission to shake you out of boring subject lines with A/B tests that are completely opposite. Think “you don't need this email” vs. “you absolutely need this email,” or "letting your inner guilt trip loose." You'll pick up plenty of unexpected ideas (and maybe rethink what “we need to talk” really means), plus get a peek into Jay's annual guys trip and his quest for the world's most embarrassing gag gifts.Best Moments:(01:32) Reverse psychology wins with “you don't need this email” pulling a 17 percent higher open rate(02:20) Humanity trumps robots when “a human with three cups of coffee wrote this” beats out AI(03:34) “Boom. Offer inside” vs. “Psst. Over here”—and the quiet approach steals the show(04:15) “We need to talk” outperforms “you left us no choice” by 19 percent(05:02) Passive-aggressive guilt pays off when “still ignoring us?” gets a 21 percent lift(06:01) “Not mad. Just disappointed” nails the parent-text vibe with a 12 percent higher open rate(06:32) “Fine. I'll open it” (the inner monologue test) crushes with a 26 percent boost(08:45) Jay's pool party humiliation story and the legend of the “I pee in pools” shirtDynamic DTNT sponsors and callouts

6,050 proved to be a wall for the SPX at the opening bell with the index pulling back from highs seen in the futures. Kevin Green analyzes the options activity surrounding the level and talks about why resistance is so strong. However, he adds that we likely won't see new lows due to the resurgence of market strength. One point of concern may come from the 10YR-3MO treasury spread, as Kevin points out its move can be bearish or bullish depending on the narrative it moves on.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Die «Kassensturz»-Reporterin deckt auf: Die teuren Produkte sind das Geld nicht wert, das abkassiert wird. «Finanzsanierer» – Wenn der Schuldenberg immer grösser wird Eine junge Frau plagen Steuerschulden von 20'000 Franken.

NBC senior correspondent Jay Gray joins Power & Politics from a confrontation between protesters and National Guard troops deployed by President Donald Trump in Los Angeles, as California's governor accuses Trump of the 'acts of a dictator.' Auditor General Karen Hogan says the estimated cost of Canada's F-35 fighter jet program has gone from $19 billion in 2022 to $27.7 billion in 2024, partly because the Defence Department relied on outdated information. Plus, a former Canadian ambassador to Saudi Arabia and an international affairs expert discuss whether Canada was right to invite controversial international players to the G7 summit next week.

Is manufacturing coming back to the US? ‘Gold Cards': How Trump Wants to Eliminate National Debt If previous statements from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick remain true, then the United States could roll out its “gold card” program soon—an unprecedented initiative to sell US residency to wealthy clients in order to raise revenue. To be sure, there has been much talk of these gold cards, but with no implementation to date. If it actually came to pass, the gold card program—or “Trump card,” as the president calls it—would be a novel revenue source for the United States. The idea first came to the forefront in February, when President Donald Trump proposed selling U.S. residency for $5 million a person to draw down the national debt. Predicting that they would begin selling cards in two weeks, Trump said in February, “If we sell 10 million, which is possible … that's $50 trillion. That means our debt is totally paid off, and we have $15 trillion above that.” Source: dailysignal.com   Political/Rights   https://twitter.com/CollinRugg/status/1931735913513853090   for being a biased reporter, calling ABC "one of the worst" outlets. https://twitter.com/StephenM/status/1931775606623994202 Mexico's President Eggs On Violent Insurrectionists in Los Angeles and Issues Threat Against America (VIDEO)   Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is egging on the violent protesters and lashing out at the Trump Administration for even trying to lay down the law.

Hosts Benny and Mayank engage in an in-depth discourse regarding the World Test Championship (WTC), welcoming back special guest Ben Brettell to lend his insights. The episode's primary focus revolves around the inherent flaws within the WTC's current structure, particularly its contrasting methodology compared to traditional Test rankings. We delve into the implications of such disparities and the overall excitement surrounding the impending Test summer in England, highlighted by the upcoming WTC final featuring Australia and South Africa. In our conversation, we reflect upon the significance of competitive integrity and the necessity for structural evolution within Test cricket to ensure its future relevance. Through this exchange, we aim to enrich our audience's understanding of the nuances and complexities underpinning Test cricket's landscape today.Takeaways: RCB's recent IPL victory is a monumental achievement after 18 years, finally bringing joy to their passionate fanbase. The disparity between the ICC Test rankings and the World Test Championship standings raises essential questions about their effectiveness. The World Test Championship is critiqued for its complexity. Many fans find it difficult to understand the qualification and ranking systems. Australia is favored to win the upcoming WTC final due to their strong form, although South Africa has the potential to cause an upset. The current WTC structure faces challenges in ensuring equal opportunities for all teams, particularly those with fewer matches against top-tier opponents. There is an ongoing debate regarding the future of Test cricket and potential adaptations, such as four-day Tests and day-night matches, to maintain its relevance.

Watch the full coverage of the live stream on The Emily D Baker YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/fyEtt02zOn8Day 28 of the Karen Read Retrial happened on June 6, 2025. Karen Read spoke to the media and suggested the case might go to the jury the following week. The judge denied the motion to have police procedure expert Michael Easter testify.Today we were all day with Dr. Daniel Wolfe, Direct of Accident Reconstruction at ARCCA. He tests conducted using a pressurized air cannon to fire a drinking glass at a car's tail light to simulate damage. ARCCA also purchased an "exemplar vehicle," a 2021 LX 570, to test damage to the tail light. ARCCA conducted tests to rebut Dr. Welcher's testimony. They tested to see if damage from a thrown rocks glass matched the damage to Karen Read's tail light, and compared that to damage from collisions with a test dummy arm and Resource Randy, a full body dummy. Tests were conducted using a crash test dummy with a hoodie similar to John O'Keefe's, and none of the tests damaged the hoodie. The most helpful part of Dr. Wolf's testimony was explaining the inner and outer plastic layers of the tail light, which helped understand the depth of the damage.RESOURCESWhat You Need to Know About the Retrial - https://youtu.be/89Jpa8vz1RQ Karen Read Retrial Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKOJlfL__9F027hlETVU-vo Karen Read Trial - 2024 - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsbUyvZas7gKUeCUzApgsEuQRXu5IXeTSThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/Podscribe - https://podscribe.com/privacy

Have you ever wondered whether your child really needs an allergy test? Or have you been tempted by those flashy direct-to-consumer kits, this conversation is a must-listen. Let's tackle the rise of at-home “food sensitivity” tests, the difference between IgE and IgG, and why a detailed history matters more than any panel of results.  In this episode, I'm joined once again by pediatric allergist Dr. Dave Stukus to break down what parents really need to know about allergy testing. From food allergies to seasonal sniffles, we dive into when testing is actually helpful—and when it leads to confusion, false positives, and unnecessary food restrictions.  We discuss:  Why most at-home food sensitivity tests are misleading—and what to do instead When allergy testing is truly helpful (and when it backfires) How to tell the difference between food allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities To connect with Dr. Dave Stukus follow him on Instagram @allergykidsdoc, check out all his resources at https://www.nationwidechildrens.org/find-a-doctor/profiles/david-r-stukus We'd like to know who is listening!

In this explosive episode, we delve into two massive unfolding scandals: the International Olympic Committee's alleged cover-up of male DNA test results for female boxing gold medalists, and a possible NATO-led escalation into direct conflict with Russia. From Olympic controversy involving Algerian boxer Imane Khelif and Chinese Taipei's Lin Yu-Ting, to leaked tests, censorship in the EU, and extradition threats—nothing is off limits. The episode then pivots to a chilling analysis of recent drone attacks deep inside Russian territory, reportedly carried out with NATO support.

In this episode, Stephanie Boyles-Griffin, Jessica Tegt, Steve Demarais, and Bronson Strickland discuss the complexities of urban deer management, exploring the challenges posed by growing deer populations in urban areas. While recreational hunting remains the most effective and practical tool for population control in most settings, an increasing number of circumstances—especially in urban and suburban areas—render it unfeasible. Stephanie and Jessica, both from the Botstiber Institute, outline non-lethal and alternative methods commonly used to manage deer in these environments and walk through the series of decisions required to evaluate which techniques are appropriate and how likely they are to succeed.  Below, Stephanie and Jessica have provided resources if you are interested in learning more.
