In this episode of the Massive Passive Cashflow Podcast, Gary Wilson interviews investor Chris Gavre, who shares how he built a scalable real estate business using land-home packages. Chris explains how buying land, installing utilities, placing a new manufactured home, and selling it as FHA-eligible housing can generate $40,000–$75,000 per deal in as little as four months. With affordable housing in high demand and less competition compared to traditional flipping, this strategy offers predictable profits and faster scalability.    

Melissa Cain experienced a sudden and profound spiritual awakening in 2016 that completely shifted her understanding of consciousness, intuition, and human purpose. With no roadmap and no community to turn to, she had to learn how to integrate expanded awareness into everyday life—while navigating parenting, work, and reality itself.Her journey revealed how intuition, emotional intelligence, and inner knowing can transform how we raise children and how we understand ourselves. Seeing that many people were awakening with no safe or grounded space to explore their experiences, Melissa created Contact Modalities XPO, a non-dogmatic community dedicated to authentic exploration of consciousness, extrasensory perception, and expanded states of awareness.Melissa now supports others through their awakenings, offering validation, insight, and an open space that honors personal truth without imposing beliefs.Before the Awakening – “What was life like pre-2016? What was your version of ‘normal' back then?”The Moment Everything Shifted – “Walk us through the spontaneous awakening—what were the first signs something fundamental had changed?”Intuition Activation – “How did your inner guidance evolve? Did abilities increase? Did perception change?”Purpose & Identity – “How did this awakening reshape your understanding of meaning, direction, and why you're here?”Conscious Parenting – “How did this impact the way you raise your children? What changed in your approach?”Children & Intuition – “What have you observed about kids when intuition is supported instead of shut down?”Community Awakening – “When did you realize others were experiencing similar shifts but didn't have safe spaces?”Birth of Contact Modalities XPO – “What inspired you to create a non-dogmatic container for spiritual experiences?”Holding Space – “How do you help others without projecting beliefs, controlling outcomes, or steering their awakening?”The Future of Consciousness – “Where do you see this collective awakening heading?”

Last week, Irish consumers were warned that a range of household devices, including TV "dodgy boxes", could be secretly controlled by cybercriminals. Millions of these devices worldwide — including smart light bulbs, TVs, and other internet-connected gadgets — are susceptible to such attacks. Once inside your home network, attackers can monitor online activity and send fake messages that appear convincingly real. This is just one example of how quickly cyber threats are evolving. Critical infrastructures — such as hospitals, energy grids, and government services — are under constant attack. In response, researchers and policymakers are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to strengthen digital defences. One of the most ambitious initiatives in this area is the EU-funded SYNAPSE project, a collaboration of 14 partners across eight countries. SYNAPSE aims to deliver an integrated risk and resilience management platform that provides holistic Situational Awareness (SA), cyber-incident response, and training and preparedness capabilities to safeguard critical environments. The platform is designed to detect cyber threats early, predict potential attacks, and guide security teams on how to respond effectively. To achieve this, SYNAPSE uses three powerful AI tools — explained here in simple terms. First, the platform learns what "normal" looks like within an organisation: how users log in, which files they access, and how devices communicate. When something deviates from this baseline, it raises an alert. Second, another component continuously scans global cybersecurity reports, databases, and open sources. It is like having an AI system that reads every cybersecurity article and threat bulletin worldwide and instantly identifies emerging risks relevant to your organisation. Third, the system connects different warning signals to forecast potential attacks before they fully unfold. It not only detects threats — it also recommends response strategies, helping security teams react faster and more effectively. These systems are currently being validated in real-world environments, including a hydrogen energy station in Germany, Cyprus's National Healthcare System, and a cyber-insurance company in Greece. But building powerful AI is only half the story. Whenever AI is deployed, strong ethical governance is essential. Eunomia Ltd, an Irish company, acts as the ethics and legal partner, ensuring that regulatory compliance, fundamental rights considerations, and trustworthy AI principles are embedded throughout the project lifecycle. Europe's new EU Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), which entered into force last year, classifies AI systems depending on the risk they pose for safety and fundamental rights and tailors the level of the intervention to the level of risk. The most regulated systems are the high-risk AI systems, which are those that may significantly affect individuals' safety or fundamental rights. Typical examples include AI used in employment and HR decisions (e.g., CV screening), access to education (e.g., exam scoring), creditworthiness and access to essential services (e.g., loan approvals), migration and border management (e.g., risk profiling), and certain law-enforcement or critical infrastructure uses. This classification triggers strict requirements, including robust risk management systems, human oversight mechanisms, transparency and documentation, technical robustness and accuracy, continuous monitoring and post-deployment evaluation. In parallel, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) continues to regulate how personal data may be processed, including in the context of automated monitoring. While the AI Act does not apply directly to research-stage systems, responsible projects must anticipate these requirements. For this reason, SYNAPSE is being evaluated based on the EU's Assessment List for Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence (ALTAI) — a voluntary but influential framework developed by the Euro...

Amid a surge of internet-fueled medical misinformation, ER doctor AshleAlker, M.D. cuts through the noise with a sharp, darkly funny survival guide for the 'New Year, New You' season."Somehow this guide to many horrific ways to die (and to avoid dying) manages to be fascinating, informative, and tastefully witty. Alker shares her passion for public health and preventive care 'even though it's bad for business.' This engagingly written medical primer should induce smiles and save lives." -BooklistEvery day, emergency physician Dr. Ashely Alker faces the question we all secretly wonder: How am I most likely to die-and what can I do to prevent it? In her debut book, 99 WAYS TO DIE: And How to Avoid Them (St. Martin's Press; January 13, 2026), Dr. Alker transforms decades of ER experience into an unforgettable, fast-paced collection of real medical stories and science-backed survival advice.Dr. Ashely Alker is a self-described death-escapologist--or, in more familiar terms, an emergency medicine doctor. She has seen it all, from flesh-eating bacteria to the work of a serial killer to the more mundane but no less deadly, and her work keeping people from dying (or being unable to) has uniquely prepared her to write this book.99 WAYS TO DIE blends gripping narrative nonfiction with dark humor and vital, lifesaving insight. Dr. Alker uses real-world medicine, cultural trends, and the absurdities of human behavior to explore the many ways people tempt fate-and how a little knowledge can make all the difference."People think of the ER as chaos," Dr. Alker says. "But what it really is, is a classroom about how fragile-and fixable-life can be."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Fractional work is exploding — and it's still confusing for a lot of corporate escapees. In this Featured Speaker session inside the Escapee Collective, John Arms breaks down Fractional 101 in plain English: what fractional really is, who it's for, how to get clients (spoiler: it's not campaigns), and what you can realistically charge.If you're still in corporate, recently laid off, or already freelancing and want more stability, this is the clearest “how it works” primer you'll hear.What you'll learn • The “W2 → 1099 bridge” and why more people are getting pushed across it • Why fractional is mostly a referral-based business (and what to do with that) • The mindset shift: conversations, not campaigns • John's simple relationship model: the “10-person circle” (fractionals, independents, super-connectors) • What companies actually care about (hint: pain, not the definition of fractional) • Typical pricing and why fractional often lands in the $8K–$10K/month retainer range • Why fractional is proactive leadership, not “wait to be told what to do” • The “project first” entry strategy — and why it usually turns into ongoing leadership • How to reconnect with old contacts without being weird or salesy • The core principle: get involved with other people's successNotable moments / lines you'll remember • “You'll work for the people you get referred to.” • “Referrals come from conversations, not campaigns.” • “Fractional is leadership — solve it and keep it solved.” • “Most barriers are fear and assumptions… it's hard work, but it's not complicated.”Resources mentioned • The Go-Giver (Bob Burg) • The NCG Factor (Larry Kaufman — Network, Connect, Give)

In the previous episode of the podcast, we discussed how GTO #poker requires mixing. Typical solutions returned by solvers include using multiple bet sizes in a given spot, with each size being used at a specific frequency.   While this is all very well in theory, how does one handle mixing in practice? If GTO tells you to bet pot 30% of the time, and half-pot 70% of the time, what do you actually do when the action is on you? The answer is we must randomize. How to randomize to maximize win-rate is the topic of this episode, meant for intermediate to advanced players.   TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Introduction: What is Randomization in Poker? 1:06 Understanding Solver Output & Mixed Frequencies 2:11 How to Use RNG for Mixing 3:30 Combo-Level Mixing Explained 4:40 Why Precise Mixing Doesn't Impact Win Rate 6:33 Can Opponents Detect Imbalanced Mixing? 8:51 Hand-Level Mixing Strategy 11:00 Category-Level Mixing: The Practical Approach 14:00 Which Type of Mixing Should You Use? 15:26 Weak vs Strong Randomization 17:02 Why Weak Randomization is Enough 19:02 Problems with Using an RNG 21:11 Mental Barriers to Exploitative Play 22:38 When Hand-Level Mixing Makes Sense 22:59 Do High-Stakes Players Really Need RNGs? 25:48 Practical RNG Usage Recommendations   **RELATED LINKS** - GTO+ Solver Bundle: https://redchippoker.com/gto-solver-bundle/ - The Exploitative Edge (Book): https://redchippoker.com/the-exploitative-edge - Myths And Misunderstandings Of GTO Poker: https://youtu.be/vn6t9leOArw?si=KGtFUs3I0bq09qT8 - Why A Mixed Strategy Matters in GTO Poker: https://youtu.be/0hfW2dlhuDs?si=lzYVrhqdHiVIvcWx   **JOIN US ON DISCORD** Join our free poker Discord today: https://redchippoker.com/discord

Sleep training is one of the most emotionally charged parenting topics online, and this conversation pulls it back to what actually matters, evidence. We talk about how social media amplifies fear and confusion, why parents are told to “trust” personalities instead of data, and how looking directly at research helps cut through the noise. While opinions are loud, the body of evidence around behavioral sleep interventions is far less controversial than the internet suggests. We also walk through what the data says about timing, safety, and developmental readiness. From common myths about brain development to the fear of letting a baby cry, this episode centers on nuance. Sleep training is not all-or-nothing, not one rigid method, and not a replacement for parenting. It is a flexible set of tools families can adapt based on temperament, comfort, and goals. What we discussed: Why social media creates confusion around sleep training The importance of trusting research over personalities What the literature says about behavioral sleep interventions Why there is less scientific debate than people think Typical age ranges supported by evidence, around 4 to 6 months Developmental readiness and self-soothing ability The difference between sleep training and night weaning Why babies vary widely in temperament and sleep patterns The myth about prefrontal cortex development Why infants are capable of learning sleep skills Fear-based messaging and misuse of scientific language How parental anxiety gets amplified by misinformation Modifying sleep training methods to match family comfort Graduated extinction, parental presence, and flexible approaches The role of compromise between caregivers The core goal, helping a child fall asleep without active intervention Why sleep training does not replace responsive parenting Want more?

Intermittent fasting may not be the magic bullet for weight loss it appeared to be. Researchers analysed 22 global trials and found no clear advantage over standard dietary advice. Weight loss was broadly similar to traditional dieting, and there was no strong evidence of extra metabolic benefits. Body Torque Gym Founder Alex Flint told Mike Hosking intermittent fasting is just a really good method for portion control, but it has a much better marketing department. He says if you can stick to it, it's a fantastic tool, but it's not superior to regular calorie control methods and eating patterns. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I. Introduction Welcome to the Victory Church podcast and Sunday worship gathering. Victory's mission: reaching the lost, restoring the broken, reviving believers.​ Joy and gratitude for being in God's house where worship, prayer, the Word, and fellowship occur.​ Emphasis that God's grace enabled people to be present, overcoming hindrances.​ II. The Nature and Purpose of Prayer Prayer and the Word as central priorities at Victory Church.​ Biblical commands to pray: “men ought always to pray,” “pray without ceasing,” “watch and pray,” “continue earnestly in prayer.”​ Clarification: prayer is not a religious ritual but a relational conversation with a loving Father.​ Prayer as sharing cares, dreams, concerns with God; Scripture as God sharing His thoughts and heart with us.​ III. Reactive vs. Proactive Prayer A. Reactive Prayer Definition: responding to events, crises, and immediate needs after they happen.​ Typical reactive requests: jobs, finances, housing, healing, family and school pressures.​ Affirmation: these needs matter to God; believers should cast all cares on Him.​ Problem: if this is the only kind of praying, discipleship and prayer life are out of alignment with God's best.​ B. Proactive Prayer Definition: creating or shaping situations by praying God's will in advance, not only reacting.​ Example from the Lord's Prayer: “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” as a proactive request.​ Goal: move believers beyond crisis-only praying into kingdom-focused, forward-looking prayer.​ IV. Acts 4 as a Model of Prayer A. Context of Acts 4 Acts as early church history, showing the Spirit-empowered beginnings of the church.​ Peter and John preaching, healing a crippled man, and provoking opposition from religious leaders.​ Authorities command them not to speak or teach in the name of Jesus.​ Connection to today: pressure in culture to silence biblical truth and the name of Jesus.​ B. The Disciples' Response They return “to their own” (the church, fellow believers) when threatened.​ Principle: where you turn in crisis reveals much about your heart.​ They share the report as a prayer request and turn immediately to corporate prayer.​ They pray in alignment with Scripture (Psalm 2) and God's will, not just emotions.​ C. Content of Their Prayer (Acts 4:24–31) Acknowledge God as Creator and Sovereign Lord over heaven and earth.​ Rehearse Scripture about nations raging and rulers opposing the Lord and His Christ.​ Interpret persecution as part of God's sovereign purpose in Christ's suffering.​ Reactive element: “Lord, look on their threats.”​ Proactive element: ask for boldness to speak the Word, and for God's hand to heal with signs and wonders in Jesus' name.​ Result: the place is shaken, all are filled with the Holy Spirit, and they speak God's Word with boldness.​ V. Praying with the Word and God's Will Call to pray not only from need or emotion but aligned with Scripture.​ Examples of praying Scripture over needs (provision, healing, emotional and spiritual needs, relationships).​ Recognition that God's will includes timing; believers must be sensitive and obedient.​ Emphasis: there is power when prayer and the Word are joined.​ VI. From Problem to Launching Pad Observation: in Acts 4, the crisis launches the church into deeper proactive prayer, not retreat.​ Instead of praying primarily for safety and comfort, they pray for greater boldness and impact.​ Application: believers today should ask God to use trials to produce testimony, messages, and greater influence for His glory.​ VII. Call to a Proactive Kingdom Focus A. For Truth and Witness in a Confused Culture Culture tolerates generic “god talk” but reacts strongly to the exclusive claims of Jesus.​ Expect opposition when living and speaking biblical truth, without being obnoxious or hypocritical.​ The church must stand firm on Scripture, not be shaped by social media or worldly opinions.​ B. For Local and Global Mission Victory Church's call: reach Providence and the nations through evangelism and missions.​ Example: missions trips (Kenya, Sierra Leone, Liberia) and conferences to strengthen pastors and churches.​ Appeal for proactive prayer for missions: bold preaching, anointing, signs and wonders, and lasting fruit.​ C. For Revival and Awakening Distinction: revival for the church (bringing believers back to life), awakening for the lost.​ Invitation to pray for souls, discipleship, anointing, revival in churches, and awakening in the nation.​ Desire to create cultures of discipleship, evangelism, missions, and deep engagement with Scripture.​ VIII. Illustrations of Proactive Prayer in History and Life Personal testimony: long season in temporary housing, choosing contentment and kingdom focus while trusting God's timing.​ Application of Matthew 6:33: prioritizing God's kingdom and righteousness, trusting Him to add needed things.​ Biblical example: Job praying for his friends and receiving double restoration.​ Historical examples: John Knox's burden “give me Scotland or I die” and its influence.​ David Brainerd's fervent prayer for Native Americans and resulting impact.​ William Tyndale's martyrdom for translating Scripture and the later spread of English Bibles.​ The Moravians' 100-year prayer meeting and remarkable missionary sending.​ IX. Practical Application and Invitation Challenge: move beyond “needs-only” praying to kingdom-centered, proactive prayer.​ Specific areas to pray proactively: personal walk, church, ministries, missions, national awakening, and social issues.​ Encouragement to stay for times of corporate prayer, lifting up pastors, leaders, and global work.​ Final appeal: cultivate a passion that cries, “Lord, give us souls, give us revival, use my life and this church for Your glory.”

Black cumin seed oil has a long history of traditional use, and its benefits trace to thymoquinone. However, it also contains the omega-6 fat linoleic acid (LA), which exposes you to risks that may outweigh its benefits Thymoquinone makes up only about 0.1% to 0.9% of black cumin seed oil, so obtaining meaningful amounts through this oil requires consuming substantial quantities of LA Black cumin seed oil contains roughly 50% to 62% LA by weight, placing it in the same high-LA category as other vegetable oils, such as cottonseed oil Typical dosing of 1 to 3 teaspoons daily delivers roughly 2.5 to 7.5 grams of LA, representing a meaningful increase over an already elevated modern baseline intake Standardized thymoquinone extracts are a better alternative, commonly sold as 5%, 10%, or 20% formulations. These allow you to obtain benefits from a traditional remedy without the LA burden

What happens when the world of GLP-1s collides with the operating room? Today, we're diving into the new era of obesity care. Hosts·       Matthew Martin, trauma and bariatric surgeon at the University of Southern California/Los Angeles General Medical Center (Los Angeles, California) @docmartin2·       Adrian Dan, bariatric and MIS surgeon, program director for the advanced MIS bariatric and foregut fellowship at Summa Health System (Akron, Ohio) @DrAdrianDan·       Crystal Johnson Mann, bariatric and foregut surgeon at the University of Florida (Gainesville, Florida) @crys_noelle_·       Katherine Cironi, general surgery resident at the University of Southern California/Los Angeles General Medical Center (Los Angeles, California) @cironimacaroniLearning objectives1.          Understand the evolving role of OMMs in bariatric surgical practice·       Recognize how widespread GLP-1 and dual-incretin therapies have reshaped patient presentations, expectations, and referral patterns.·       Appreciate current evidence comparing surgery to GLP-1 therapy, including the JAMA Surgery study out of Allegheny Health (2025), noting:o   Superior weight loss with bariatric surgery (~28% TBWL vs ~10% with GLP-1s)o   Higher health-care utilization and cost in GLP-1–treated patients.·       Frame OMMs not as alternatives but as complementary tools within a chronic disease model when treating obesity.2.           Review pharmacologic classes and their expected efficacy·       Surgeons should be able to articulate the mechanisms, efficacy, and limitations of:o   GLP-1 receptor agonists – incretin-based satiety; 5–12% TBWL.o   Dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists – most potent agents; 15–22% TBWL.o   Sympathomimetics – norepinephrine-driven appetite suppression; 3–7% TBWL.o   Combination agents (bupropion-naltrexone, phentermine-topiramate) – 5–12% TBWL depending on regimen.o   Emerging therapies – retatrutide, maritide, oral GLP-1s, with promising TBWL in phase 2 trials3.          Apply OMMs strategically in the preoperative phase·       Integrate OMMs without compromising surgical eligibility—OMM-related weight loss does not negate the indication for surgery.·       Counsel patients that medication response does not equal disease resolution; surgery remains the most durable intervention.·       Manage delayed gastric emptying and aspiration risk:o   Pause weekly GLP-1 or dual agonists for ≥1 week pre-op (longer if symptomatic).o   Collaborate closely with the anesthesia/OR teams·       Screen for nutritional depletion before surgery, especially protein deficits exacerbated by appetite suppression.·       Navigate insurance barriers that may paradoxically approve surgery but deny medication continuation.4.          Implement postoperative OMMs safely and effectively·       Establish criteria for OMM introduction:o   Typical initiation at 6–12 months, once the diet stabilizes and the physiologic curve flattens.o   Earlier initiation (4–6 weeks) may be appropriate in pediatric or select high-risk populations.·       Recognize altered pharmacokinetics after sleeve and bypass:o   Injectables may be preferred due to altered absorption of oral agents.·       Prevent postoperative nutritional compromise:o   Monitor protein intake, hydration, and micronutrient status (including iron, B12, and fat-soluble vitamins).o   Titrate doses slowly to minimize nausea/vomiting that can precipitate malnutrition.·       Frame OMM use as a tool for disease persistence (plateau/regain), not as a marker of failure.5.          Identify systems-level barriers and the implementation of coordinated care·       Understand insurance inconsistencies—coverage for surgery is often not paired with coverage for long-term medical therapy.·       Clearly document disease persistence and medical necessity when appealing denials.·       Avoid fragmented care: establish shared-care pathways between bariatric surgery, obesity medicine, and primary care.·       Use patient-centered language emphasizing complementary therapy, not hierarchy or competition between surgery and medications.6.          Counsel patients ethically and accurately within a chronic disease model·       Set expectations: sustained success requires surgery + medication + behavioral change.·       Educate patients that postoperative OMM use does not imply surgical failure.·       Normalize long-term multimodal management of obesity, analogous to diabetes or hypertension models.*Sponsor Disclaimer: Visit goremedical.com/btkpod to learn more about GORE® SYNECOR Biomaterial, including supporting references and disclaimers for the presented content.  Refer to Instructions for Use at eifu.goremedical.com for a complete description of all applicable indications, warnings, precautions and contraindications for the markets where this product is available.
