Redoubling Works or Effort: A Lesson on Faith in God's Timing by Autumn Dickson There is a verse in this week's readings that always jumps out to me. It came at a time when I was praying about what I needed to do. I had started my blog, and then a while later, I found […] The post Come, Follow Me with FAIR – Doctrine and Covenants 125–128 – Part 2 – Autumn Dickson appeared first on FAIR.
Ep. 396 Twins Untangled: The Data Behind Safe Twin Birth with Dr. Stu In this week's episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with Dr. Stu Fischbein to unpack the truth about twin births, and it's probably not what your provider has told you. They dive into why C-sections have become the default for twins in the U.S. (hint: it's not because it's safer), and how our medical system continues to over-manage what can often be a normal variation of birth. Dr. Stu breaks down what's really happening with rising twin pregnancies, how assisted reproductive technology plays a role, and why evidence still supports vaginal twin births when handled by skilled providers. You'll hear them talk about: How to find a provider who's actually experienced with vaginal twin births The real deal on ECVs, breech twins, and what “mono-mono” and “mono-di” really mean How to advocate for your birth plan even when you're having multiples If you're expecting twins, or just want to understand how broken our twin birth system has become, this episode is your blueprint for making informed, confident choices and protecting your power in the birth room. 00:00 Introduction to Twin Births 01:07 Welcome to The Birth Lounge Podcast 01:14 Black Friday Sale Announcement 02:29 The Birth Lounge Overview 09:52 Special Guest: Dr. Stu Fischbein 10:21 Challenges and Misconceptions About Twin Births 11:25 Dr. Stu's Background and Expertise 12:48 Navigating Twin Births in the Medical System 14:15 The Importance of Informed Consent 15:51 Current Landscape of Twin Births 20:49 Training and Skills in Obstetrics 35:34 Risks and Realities of Twin Births 57:29 Legislation and Training in Midwifery 59:07 Economic Incentives in Birth Practices 01:00:16 Personal Experience with Baby Gear 01:03:31 Cost Analysis of C-Sections vs. Vaginal Births 01:04:50 Hospital Policies and C-Section Rates 01:08:44 Historical Perspective on Birth Practices 01:14:08 Twin Births: Hospital vs. Home 01:20:30 Challenges in Breech Deliveries 01:24:27 External Cephalic Version (ECV) Insights 01:30:42 Timing and Risks in Twin Deliveries 01:40:07 Final Thoughts and Advice for Expecting Mothers Guest Bio: Stuart J.

In this episode of She Lives Purposefully, I'm opening up about a season that's very real for me right now — a season of waiting, uncertainty, and trusting God when I don't know what's next. As we welcome a new baby and care for our little one, I've found myself returning to these unshakable truths: Seek God first. Before the blessing, before the next step — seek Him. (Matthew 6:33) Stay in His Word. God's Word lights the path one step at a time. (Psalm 119:105) Pray and listen. He wants to guide you. (Isaiah 30:21, Psalm 32:8, Proverbs 3:5-6) Seek wise counsel. There's safety in godly advice. (Proverbs 15:22) Do the next right thing. Like David and Joseph, obedience in the small things leads to God's greater plans. Trust His timing. Just like in Esther's story, God's timing is never off. Whether you're praying about your next move, waiting for a promise, or simply unsure what God wants from you — this episode will encourage you to seek His presence more than His plans, to trust His heart even when you can't see the full picture, and to rest knowing He's leading the way.

In this episode, Dr. Spencer Wayne sits down with Hayden Kerkaert, Director of Pig Sales & Marketing for Pipestone Management, to break down the current weaned pig market and what it means for producers across the country. Hayden shares practical insights on what drives pig value, pricing,and performance.The weaned pig market has stayed strong longer than manyexpected. Unlike past short-term spikes, today's high prices have lasted nearly a year, driven by tight pig supply, health challenges like PRRS, and some producers exiting the industry. Understanding why prices remain high—and whatbuyers are looking for—is critical for anyone raising or purchasing pigs.Hayden and Spencer cover the key factors affecting weanedpig prices, with health status at the top of the list. Buyers need clear, detailed information on a pig's health, including PRRS status, vaccination history, and disease exposure, because it's critical for them to know what's coming into their barn. Vaccinated pigs generally perform better and can command higher value. Misunderstanding or missing these details can lead to costly mistakes, which is why Hayden emphasizes the importance of working closely with your veterinarian. Beyond the numbers, trust and strong relationships between buyers and sellers are just as important—producers who communicate openly and reliably about pig health create lasting partnerships and maintain the value of their pigs.Pig age, genetics, and attributes also matter. Older pigs(23–24 days) often bring a premium because they thrive in the nursery and have lower mortality. Genetics like Duroc-sired pigs, and attributes such as Prop 12 compliance or open pen gestation, can influence contracts and buyer interest. Timing and pig flow management—getting pigs to the right barn at the right time—also play a major role in profitability.Whether you're a producer selling pigs, a buyer sourcing animals, or managing a sow farm, this episode provides real-world guidance you can put to work today. Hayden breaks down complex market dynamics into practical advice for navigating the weaned pig market, keeping pigs healthy,and maximizing return on every head.Tune in for insights that help you make smarter decisions for your pigs, your barn, and your bottom line.
R. Kenner French opens the discussion by introducing David Flores Wilson, a financial advisor and Wall Street veteran, to share insights on finance, retirement, and exit planning for entrepreneurs. Wilson emphasizes the importance of planning an exit strategy early—even years or decades before selling a business. He explains that thinking ahead allows business owners to align their personal, financial, and business goals, leading to a smoother and more profitable exit process.David shares his personal background, explaining that his passion for financial planning came from witnessing his grandparents lose their business due to poor estate planning and risky real estate decisions. This experience motivated him to help entrepreneurs avoid similar pitfalls by guiding them through key areas such as tax, real estate, and estate planning. He eventually transitioned from investment banking to entrepreneurship, founding his own advisory firm during the pandemic.The conversation dives into exit planning strategies—how entrepreneurs can prepare their businesses to be more valuable and attractive to potential buyers. David highlights that a crucial step in maximizing value is making the business less dependent on the owner. This involves developing management systems, defining roles, and establishing efficient processes for sales, marketing, and operations. Doing so increases the company's valuation, whether it's sold to private equity, a strategic buyer, or through family succession.Both experts discuss the significance of financial literacy and tax strategy in wealth growth. Wilson outlines five key levers of financial literacy: saving, investing, protecting assets, managing debt, and minimizing taxes. He explains four major areas of tax efficiency—entity structure, tax deferral plans (like 401(k)s or cash balance plans), credits and deductions, and tax optimization across income types. These strategies, he says, can significantly reduce liabilities and boost long-term financial health.David concludes by stressing the value of building a strong advisory team. As entrepreneurs grow, their financial needs evolve, and sometimes their current advisors may not grow with them. He encourages business owners to continually evaluate and “level up” their professional team—tax experts, financial planners, and legal advisors—to match their increasing sophistication. The discussion ends with French reminding viewers about resources like taxcreditintel.com for R&D tax credits, reinforcing their shared mission of helping entrepreneurs protect and grow wealth through smart planning and proactive strategy.Takeaways• Investing in crypto is a popular alternative to real estate.• Real estate investments can be understood through simple math.• Many millionaires have built their wealth through real estate.• Tax strategies are crucial when considering investments.• Working with CPAs can help maximize tax benefits.• Timing your investment sales can impact tax liabilities.• Real estate offers a common recipe for success.• Understanding leverage is key in real estate investing.• Cash balances can influence investment decisions.• The entrepreneurial journey often begins with a desire for independence.Sound Bites• Work with your CPAs for tax credits.• It's really seventh grade math.• There is a common recipe for success.Listen & Subscribe for More:
The conversation delves into the behavior of bucks during the hunting season, particularly in November, highlighting how their responses to being bumped change as the season progresses. The speakers discuss strategies for hunting and the likelihood of encountering the same buck after an initial disturbance. Takeaways: Bucks become less cautious as November approaches. Bumping a buck in October has different implications than in November. Opportunities to hunt the same buck can arise quickly after bumping him. Understanding deer behavior is crucial for successful hunting. Timing and seasonality play a significant role in hunting strategies. Hunters should adapt their tactics based on deer behavior changes. The presence of does influences buck movement and hunting opportunities. Bucks may recover quickly from disturbances later in the season. Effective wildlife management requires knowledge of animal behavior. Hunters should remain flexible and observant during the hunting season. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Saving Lives: Critical Care Conversations, we discuss new evidence from the University of Pennsylvania that challenges how we time inotropic therapy in acute decompensated heart failure–related cardiogenic shock.This retrospective cohort study found that patients who received inotropes within eight hours of meeting SCAI stage C criteria had a 28-day mortality of 17%, compared to 33% in those who received them later. Early inotrope use was also associated with less vasopressor dependence and quicker access to echocardiography and hemodynamic monitoring.We'll explore what this means for emergency and critical care practice—how recognizing hypoperfusion early, even in normotensive patients, may improve survival. We'll also touch on the role of SCAI and SHARC criteria in timely shock identification and management.Because in cardiogenic shock, the difference between early and delayed therapy might be the difference between life and death.The Vasopressor & Inotrope HandbookAmazon: https://amzn.to/47qJZe1 (Affiliate Link)My Store: https://eddyjoemd.myshopify.com/products/the-vasopressor-inotrope-handbook (Use "podcast" to save 10%)Citation: Greenwood JC, Ratnayake C, Shabbir M, Opitz S, Jang DH, Choi WJ, Panebianco NL, Shofer FS, Augoustides JGT, Bakker J, Wald JW, Abella BS.

The Irony of Paid Transparency I saw a post the other day that made me stop mid-scroll. An actor—let's call him Workshop Guy—was going viral for saying he was "tired of gatekeeping in the industry." He wanted to break down the walls, create transparency, build community… all that good stuff. And then, at the end of his video, came the link. A $200 workshop. I laughed out loud. Because, honestly, that's not transparency. That's marketing. Let's talk about why. The Anti-Gatekeeping Paywall Here's the thing: if your solution to exclusivity is to sell tickets to your version of inclusion, you've missed the point. This particular actor is an NYU grad—one of the most expensive, most exclusive programs in the country. That's not shade, it's context. The gate was already built long before graduation. So now, instead of widening that gate, he's charging admission. That's not transparency. That's a rebrand. And look, I have zero issue with people charging for their time. I do it too. I teach workshops, classes, coaching. That's education. But when you say you're ending gatekeeping while collecting checkout links? That's manipulation dressed as empowerment. Boundaries Aren't Barriers Here's where people get confused. When working actors say no to a "pick your brain" chat, that's not gatekeeping. That's energy management. You don't owe unlimited access to your time or experience. Protecting your energy isn't selfish—it's smart. Gatekeeping is exclusion for control. Boundaries are protection for sustainability. If someone says, "Hey, I can't jump on a call right now, but I teach a class next month," that's not blocking the door. That's structure. And if you've done any of Peter's Core Work, you already know—energy management is everything. What Real Transparency Looks Like Transparency isn't a sales tactic. It's a culture choice. It looks like: Sharing what you've learned, within reason. Answering a quick question in a Facebook group. Being open about your rates and usage terms. Talking honestly about rejection, burnout, or bad contracts. Transparency says, Here's what I know, take what helps. It's generosity, not a business model. Why We Still Need Some Gatekeeping Okay, this might sound controversial—but I think some gatekeeping is good. Without it, anyone can say they're an "agent" or "coach" and start charging people money. Gates aren't the problem. **Who holds the keys—and why—**is. If you're protecting integrity, professionalism, and ethics, that's structure. If you're protecting ego or profit, that's manipulation. The goal isn't to eliminate the gates. It's to make sure they're in the right hands. The Real Takeaway If you're frustrated by gatekeeping, start with generosity. If you're burnt out from giving too much, start with boundaries. And if you're tempted to monetize "transparency," ask what you're really selling. Because $200 to "end gatekeeping"? That's not transparency. That's just good marketing. Take Your Core Work Deeper If this conversation hits close to home, it might be time to focus on your energy management.

How to clarify, stabilize, and finish cider the right way The Purpose of Secondary Fermentation when Making Cider Once the apple juice has started fermented and it is now slowing down, it is time to rack over your cider for secondary fermentation. Secondary fermentation is where your cider moves from "young" to "refined." This stage improves clarity, stability, and overall quality before bottling or serving. 00:00 – Introduction and Welcome 00:27 – Meet the Host: Ria Windcaller 00:45 – The Magic of Clothes Pins 01:14 – Episode Overview: Secondary Fermentation 01:55 – Replay Announcement: Season 8, Episode 386 02:14 – Cider Making in the Northern Hemisphere 02:34 – Cider Making Resources and Equipment 06:09 – Totally Cider Tours 13:29 – Upcoming New York Cider Festival 15:31 – Featured Presentation: Clearing Cloudy Cider 24:01 – Observing Fermentation Activity 24:21 – Timing and Patience in Cider Making 24:54 – Understanding Racking Over 25:32 – Dealing with Stuck Fermentation 26:59 – Secondary Fermentation Indicators 27:47 – Preparing for Racking Over 29:13 – Racking Over Process 30:49 – Using Sulfites and Equipment 35:32 – Handling Head Space and Lees 38:38 – Final Tips and Bottling 42:43 – Supporters and Closing Remarks Why Secondary Fermentation Matters Secondary fermentation helps your cider: Improve the overall quality and characteristics of the final product during secondary fermentation by; Clarify: After the vigorous primary fermentation phase, yeast, pulp, and particulate matter settle out. Giving the cider time in secondary creates that clean, bright look in the glass. Stabilize: Letting the cider relax in a less active fermentation state helps smooth out rough edges and reduces the risk of funky off-character flavors. Reduce Bottle Sediment: Most of the lees settle in the secondary fermenter — not in your final bottles — giving you a cleaner, professional-looking cider. Avoid Off-Flavors: Yeast that sits too long on the lees can break down (autolyze) and create harsh, unpleasant aromas. Racking to secondary moves the cider off that yeast layer and protects the finished profile.. Secondary fermentation is a crucial step for refining cider, enhancing its clarity, taste, and stability before it is consumed or sold.

Signs include: – Airlock activity slows way down – Gravity readings stabilize over several days – Visible bubbling is minimal – A firm lees bed is forming at the bottom – Taste test confirms sugar is mostly gone (unless aiming for sweet Equipment needed for Cider's Secondary Ferment Find a complete list with links to purchase at the Cider Making Equipment page at ciderchat.com Extra Apple Juice to for topping off Secondary Fermenter – glass carboy of equal size Airlock and Bung Racking Cane or Auto-Siphon Sanitizer Hydrometer or Refractometer Tubing & a clothes pin ( a Ria tip to have on hand for clamping tubing as you go so it can be managed to insure that the tube doesn't slip down into the lees and stir them up) Bottle Brush and Cleaning Equipment Determining when Secondary Fermentation Begins Completion of Active Primary Fermentation: Watch and notice when the vigorous phase of primary fermentation is complete, which is typically indicated by a significant decrease in airlock activity or specific gravity readings that are close to the target final gravity. Gravity Readings: Use a hydrometer or refractometer to take consecutive gravity readings over a few days. When readings are consistent, it suggests that fermentation has slowed down enough for secondary transfer. Visual Clues: Look for a drop in the level of visible activity, such as the reduction of bubbles and the beginning of sediment formation at the bottom of the primary fermenter. Taste Test: Conduct a taste test for residual sweetness. If the cider is too sweet, it may need more time in primary fermentation unless the desired style of cider is sweet rather than dry. Timeframe Guidance: Generally, primary fermentation can take anywhere from a few days to two weeks, depending on factors like temperature, yeast strain, and original sugar content. Avoiding Off-Flavors: Transfer before the cider has sat too long on the lees at the bottom of the carboy to prevent off-flavors that can result from yeast autolysis. Specific Style Goals: Factor in the specific goals for the cider's style, as some styles may benefit from a longer or shorter primary fermentation before secondary. Equipment Availability: Ensure that the secondary fermentation vessel is prepared and sanitized before deciding on the transfer to avoid any delays once the cider is ready. Common Problems during Secondary Ferment Stalled Fermentation – Adjust fermentation temperature to optimal range. Excessive Oxidation – Minimize headspace and avoid splashing when transferring. Contamination – Practice stringent sanitation and possibly discard contaminated batch. Sulfite Burn – Allow time for dissipation or use activated carbon treatment. Insufficient Carbonation – Verify yeast viability and sugar availability; maintain proper bottle conditioning temperature. Sediment in Bottles – Allow full clearing in secondary, use fining agents, and bottle carefully. Unexpected Flavor Changes – Allow time for maturation or blend with another batch. Pressure Build-up in Containers – Use an airlock or periodically vent the container. Cider Becomes Too Dry – Monitor gravity to stop fermentation at desired sweetness or back-sweeten with non-fermentable sweeteners.

A ministra Isabel Gallotti, do Tribunal Superior Eleitoral (TSE), votou nesta terça-feira, 4, pela cassação do mandato do governador do Rio de Janeiro, Cláudio Castro (PL).A magistrada é a relatora dos recursos apresentados pelo Ministério Público Eleitoral contra a chapa do governador. Castro, o presidente da Alerj, Rodrigo Bacellar, e outras dez pessoas são acusados de criar cerca de 27 mil cargos comissionados irregulares na Fundação Ceperj, que teriam sido usados para empregar cabos eleitorais e fortalecer a campanha de reeleição do governador em 2022.Após o voto de Isabel, o ministro Antonio Carlos Ferreira pediu vista, e o julgamento foi suspenso por 30 dias. Segundo a ministra relatora, as provas demonstraram que Castro e aliados políticos utilizaram a máquina pública em benefício eleitoral. Isabel Gallotti classificou as irregularidades como “graves” e destacou que as práticas foram reconhecidas pelo Tribunal Regional Eleitoral do Rio (TRE-RJ), ainda que a Corte tenha absolvido o governador em primeira instância.Felipe Moura Brasil, Duda Teixeira e Ricardo Kertzman comentam:Papo Antagonista é o programa que explica e debate os principais acontecimentos do dia com análises críticas e aprofundadas sobre a política brasileira e seus bastidores.

If God is sovereign and what He has spoken is going to come to pass, then how should we pray? While it would be futile to pray that we would never experience suffering or difficulty as God's purpose unfolds, Jesus does give clear instruction: pray for mercy as well as for limits on the wickedness in our time. When our prayers are also coupled with clear biblical vision aligned with the word of Christ, we can pray confidently for effective gospel advance, our hearts ready and mobile to partner in the promise of a great harvest.

In this episode, Petia Kolibova Burns explores the often-overlooked verse Mark 11:11, where Jesus enters the Temple, observes everything carefully, and leaves. This quiet moment holds a profound message about patience, discernment, and trusting God's timing. Discover why sometimes the most impactful action you can take is to pause, pray, and align with His will before moving forward. ✨ **3 Key Takeaways:** 1. Jesus modeled intentional observation before taking action — teaching us that wisdom begins with discernment. 2. God's timing is perfect; rushing ahead can lead to exhaustion, but waiting in peace brings clarity. 3. The pause is not punishment — it's preparation for your next purpose-driven step.
“Trusting God’s Timing: Faith, Family, and Saying Yes to Life” Abby and Regan get real about trusting God through motherhood, marriage, and the moments when life just doesn’t make sense. From birth control to big families, this heartfelt chat is all about surrendering to God’s plan — even when it’s hard. This week, Abby and Regan dive into one of the most personal and faith-filled conversations yet — what it truly means to trust God’s design for life and family. With humor, honesty, and vulnerability, they share their journeys through young marriage, motherhood, and the pressure to “plan” life perfectly. From birth control and tubals to moments of conviction and surrender, they unpack how faith reshapes our choices and how God’s timing is always better — even when the world tells us otherwise. Whether you’re in a season of abundance or uncertainty, this episode is a reminder that children are blessings, not burdens, and that God’s plans will always exceed our own. Key Themes & Takeaways: Surrendering to God’s timing in family and motherhood Faith over fear in financial and life decisions The spiritual meaning behind being “open to life” How modern culture misunderstands birth control and sterilization Trusting that God’s plans are bigger than our comfort zones Scripture focus: Psalm 127 — “Children are a heritage from the Lord…” Want to collab with Abby & Regan and reach 707,000+ parents? https://www.reganlong.com/new-page-3 Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
In this episode of the OnBase Podcast, host Chris Moody sits down with Craig Abramson of Workday to discuss how data quality, timing, and automation shape the future of account-based marketing (ABM) and experience (ABX).Craig's story, starting as a content writer, evolving through startup marketing, and now running enterprise-level ABX programs at Workday, offers a rare view into how strategy scales with data maturity. From early experiments targeting QuickBooks users to Workday's global predictive engagement models, Craig breaks down how precision targeting drives faster deals, cleaner funnels, and measurable growth.Key TakeawaysData quality is the foundation “Garbage in, garbage out” isn't a cliché, it's a law. Whether at a startup or Workday, the success of ABM hinges on accurate, verified, and purposeful data. A bad contact record can derail an entire funnel.Timing is the game-changer Intent data and predictive scoring help pinpoint the exact moment an account is ready to engage. Craig's own campaign once closed a $250M+ enterprise deal in just three months, half the usual cycle, simply because the timing was right.Start small, learn fast Even at large companies, Craig applies a startup mindset: test, pivot, refine. His early ABM wins came from focusing on a narrow list of accounts with shared pain points rather than broad campaigns.ABX + demand gen = harmony, not competition At Workday, the ABX team focuses on the top 15% of high-scoring accounts, while demand gen drives scale. Together they operate like retail tiers, demand gen as the “big box store,” ABX as the “personal shopper,” and 1:1 ABM as the “bespoke tailor.”Messaging makes or breaks sales Even the best solution fails with the wrong message. Alignment between marketing and sales must start with consistent, audience-specific messaging that speaks to pain points, not features.AI is the amplifier, not the author Craig uses AI tools like Gemini to analyze data sets in hours instead of days but stresses the importance of human instinct: “AI can't feel what will resonate, but it can help you see what you'd otherwise miss.”Quotes“The right message at the wrong time is just as bad as the wrong message altogether.”Tech RecommendationsDemandbase Salesforce Google GeminiMarketoHubSpotResource RecommendationsBlog:Niel Patel: Author: Neil Patel | Co Founder of NP Digital & Owner of UbersuggestPodcast:Martech Podcast: Marketing technology trends and tools.Shout-OutsMatthew Miller - Sr Principal, Global ABX.

Ever wonder why some founders exit with clarity and calm while others get trapped by their own success? We sit down with M&A advisor Brian Goodhart of Capstone Strategic to unpack the real mechanics of selling a mid-market business—what buyers actually value, how timing and structure shape outcomes, and why “someday” is a dangerously vague plan. If your company is your largest asset, this conversation helps you protect it.We go deep on the difference between owning a job and owning a transferable business, the quiet power of clean financials, and building a leadership bench that can run without you. Brian lays out a simple three-phase process—planning and preparation, outreach and engagement, and deal advisory to close—that keeps confidentiality tight, aligns buyer conversations with your priorities, and reduces surprises in diligence. We also break down the “selling equation,” a mix of price, terms, post-close involvement, timing, operational changes, and the personal X-factors that matter to you. Define these early and you invite offers that fit, not just numbers that flatter.Founder fatigue is real, and naming it can save value. We talk openly about burnout, why starting early creates options, and how knowing your “enough” number guides smarter deal structures—from taking some chips off the table to rolling equity for upside. The twist? Preparing to sell often makes the business stronger and more enjoyable, so you may choose not to transact at all. That's the point: optionality. If you want a sale on your terms, or simply a company that runs better now, this is your roadmap.If this resonates, follow and share the show, and leave a review with the one question you still have about selling your business.

In this episode, we explore the detailed halachic principles surrounding the performance of Bris Milah (circumcision) on Shabbat. We discuss the sequence of procedures—cutting, folding back, and blood removal—along with permissible healing practices, and how these are integrated into Shabbat observance. Key topics include the handling of remaining skin strands, performing Bris on children born prematurely, and the parameters for children born during twilight or via Cesarean section. Medical, historical, and rabbinic perspectives are considered to clarify when and how the mitzvah may be performed while balancing Shabbat restrictions.
The "Genial and Aloof" Communicator: Reagan's Psychological Defense and Exquisite Political Timing. Max Boot discusses the late Reagan administration, his personality, and his legacy. Reagan was famously defined as "genial and aloof," and Boot argues that Reagan was "very hard to know," even by his wife Nancy and his closest aides, who felt part of him was "walled off." This aloofness originated in his childhood, where constant moving and hiding his father's alcoholism led him to erect a "mental wall." Reagan was comfortable with the title of "Great Communicator," recognizing the political power of his background by stating, "Some people say they can't understand how an actor can be president. I don't understand how anybody but an actor could be president." His most famous sayings include "Honey, I forgot to duck," "ash heap of history," and "There you go again." Regarding his legacy, Boot notes that the economic recovery was largely "salesmanship," with growth rates during the Reagan presidency similar to the Nixon administration, though Reagan's political timing was "exquisite." Boot credits Reagan as a "very lucky politician" who also "made his own luck," with much of the economic recovery due to Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker. An anecdote illustrating Reagan's modesty notes that when he first sat behind the Resolute desk, he was too tall to fit his knees underneath but did not complain, reflecting his unassuming and undemanding nature.

Nobel laureate Sir Roger Penrose dismantles standard cosmology, arguing the Big Bang wasn't the beginning and quantum mechanics is fundamentally wrong. He then connects a real, gravitational wave function collapse to the non-computational nature of consciousness and why today's AI can't truly understand.

Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. In this listener question episode, the Fertility Docs take on some of the most common and complex questions about endometriosis and fertility treatment options. Patients often wonder whether to pursue testing like the ReceptivaDx assay, when to consider IVF over other treatments, and how many IUI cycles to try before taking a more aggressive approach. The docs discuss how the right path depends on factors such as the severity of disease, the presence of endometriomas or deep implants, and each patient's family-building goals. They also talk about surgery for endometriosis—when it can help, and when it might cause more harm than good. While surgery may relieve pain, it can sometimes reduce ovarian reserve by damaging nearby eggs. For patients whose main goal is conception, moving toward IVF may be the best option. Chronic pain, however, can often be managed with medications like Depo-Lupron. Ultimately, the Fertility Docs emphasize that for those with endometriosis who want children, timing and strategy are everything. Acting sooner rather than later can improve the chances of success and make room for definitive treatment later on. This podcast was sponsored by US Fertility.
Cypress Campus Pastor, Jason Swiggart, explores what happens when life brings difficult questions about God's presence and timing, especially during loss and uncertainty. Through Jesus' interactions with John the Baptist, indecisive crowds, and weary souls in Matthew 11, we discover that God's responses serve different purposes. His 'no' often provides protection and redirection rather than rejection. His 'maybe' demonstrates holy patience, giving us time to respond while warning that delayed obedience can become disobedience. His 'yes' offers rest and partnership through a custom-made yoke that fits our specific needs. Instead of giving God feedback about his methods, we should humbly seek his feedback about our lives.
How do you build a culture where innovation thrives instead of being feared? Recorded live at Autodesk University in Nashville, this conversation with Cliff Cole, Director of Virtual Design and Construction at The PENTA Building Group, dives into what it really takes to embed innovation into the DNA of a construction company. Cliff shares how storytelling, timing, and empathy create trust and drive adoption—turning change management into a shared mission instead of a mandate. You'll learn: Why every construction team is already innovating (even if they don't call it that) How to build a culture that celebrates creativity and problem-solving The art of storytelling to communicate innovation effectively How timing and trust make or break new technology adoption Ways to overcome generational and cultural barriers to change MEET OUR GUEST Cliff Cole is the Director of Virtual Design and Construction at The PENTA Building Group, a Las Vegas–based general contractor known for projects across healthcare, education, gaming, and tribal sectors. With over two decades in the industry, Cliff has built a reputation for fostering innovation through empathy, collaboration, and storytelling. He's a passionate advocate for redefining construction's culture—helping teams see that every challenge is an opportunity to innovate, communicate, and grow. TODD TAKES Innovation Starts with Culture Innovation in construction isn't just about adopting new tools—it's about creating a culture where people feel empowered to solve problems creatively. Every project brings unknowns, and teams already innovate daily to adapt and deliver. Recognizing that mindset helps shift the narrative: construction is, at its core, an innovative industry. Storytelling Unlocks Buy-In Problem-solving alone isn't enough—innovation needs to be communicated. Too often, teams do the hard work but don't showcase how it's transforming outcomes. Building the muscle of storytelling, meeting people where they are, and delivering the right message at the right time is what turns technical solutions into cultural movements. Timing and Trust Matter in Change Rolling out new technology or processes requires more than good ideas—it requires timing, trust, and empathy. People resist change not because they can't use technology, but because they need to see the value in their own context. Walking in their shoes, asking the right questions, and introducing solutions at the right moment makes adoption stick. More Resources Thanks for listening!

When the end of Daylight Savings Time rolls around, many of us sigh, “Here we go again!” As today's prayer and devotional remind us, even though adjusting the clock by an hour may seem simple, it often disrupts our rhythm, leaving us feeling tired, confused, and slightly off-balance. Some of us might even show up late (or early!) to work, church, or appointments. In this practical and faith-filled reflection, Lynette Kittle reminds us that even the passage of time is under God’s control. Whether we’re falling back or springing forward, God’s timing is always perfect. He invites us to approach every day — and every hour — with gratitude, patience, and faith. By trusting God to guide us through life’s constant changes, we can turn this minor seasonal annoyance into an opportunity for spiritual growth. Each hour we’re given is a gift, a reminder that our lives are held in His hands. Instead of grumbling through the adjustment, we can use this moment to rest in His wisdom and give thanks for the time He’s entrusted to us. Today's Bible Reading:“For through wisdom your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.” – Proverbs 9:11 Takeaway Truths Every hour is a gift from God — His timing is always perfect. We can trust God to guide us through changes and disruptions. Gratitude and patience help us embrace life’s rhythm with faith and peace.
