Start with a breath: Psalm 39 names the brevity of life and the only hope that holds when wealth, status, and fury fail. From that quiet center, we move into the heart of covenant—marriage as the exclusive union that reorders our priorities and pushes back against the temptation to treat a spouse like an accessory. Then we follow Jesus to Nazareth, where familiarity breeds unbelief, and watch him send the twelve two by two, a pattern of mission, accountability, and trust that still beats solo bravado and cultural noise.The story of John the Baptist's beheading exposes how vanity, spectacle, and rash vows corrode leadership. That warning sets the stage for Jonathan Mayhew's piercing read of Romans 13: the call to submit to higher powers applies to rulers who actually do the work of ruling—praising good and punishing evil. When authorities reverse that order, they forfeit any claim to Christian obedience. We connect those principles to modern examples, from ideologies that radicalize students toward violence to the way public life falters when God is cut from the moral core of education and civic vision.Against that darkness, we raise the bright courage of Sergeant First Class Nelson V. Brittin, whose Medal of Honor valor reminds us what duty, sacrifice, and honor look like in flesh and blood. Throughout, we pray for families, bless those who serve in danger, and ask hard questions about how to live faithfully: guard your words, keep your vows, hold fast to your marriage, and measure leaders by the justice they pursue.

US President Donald Trump's delivered his two cents on the state of Europe, as tariff threats over the Greenland issue loom. Trump's spoken at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, confirming he still wants to buy and control the Danish territory, but won't use force. He's already threatened increasing tariffs on eight European countries if he doesn't get a deal. University of Iowa Economics Professor Anne Villamil told Andrew Dickens the threat of a tariff war is extremely concerning, as it could do a lot of economic damage to the world. She says everybody involved loses, which is why it's not something we should be doing. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this powerful follow-up to Episode 74, where his mother, Mollie, shared their family's journey, listeners now hear from two of the neonatologists who cared for Nash at the University of Iowa's Stead Family Children's Hospital—Dr. Patrick McNamara and Dr. Amy Stanford.The conversation explores what first inspired them to pursue neonatology, how the culture and belief within the walls of the NICU at the University of Iowa shape outcomes, and why their “small baby” program has become a model of consistency, teamwork, and hope. They reflect on the challenges Nash faced in his earliest days, the role of hemodynamics in guiding his care, and the profound meaning of seeing babies like Nash go home after months of critical illness.This episode is a tribute not only to Nash and his courageous family but also to the dedicated NICU teams whose relentless commitment continues to redefine what's possible for the tiniest and most fragile infants.Dr. Brown's Medical: https://www.drbrownsmedical.com  The Infant-Driven Feeding™ (IDF) Program: https://www.infantdrivenfeeding.com/ Our NICU Roadmap: A Comprehensive NICU Journal: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/nicujournal/  NICU Mama Hats: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/hats/  NICU Milestone Cards: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/nicuproducts/  Newborn Holiday Cards: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/shop/  Empowering NICU Parents Show Notes: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/shownotes/  Episode 75 Show Notes: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/episode75  Empowering NICU Parents Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/empoweringnicuparents/ Empowering NICU Parents FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/empoweringnicuparents  Pinterest Page: https://pin.it/36MJjmHThank you for listening to the Empowering NICU Parents Podcast.

Don't shy away from that work, engage in that work, and pay it the attention that it's due.” - Dr. Andrew Temte  “Far too many leaders leave the business world and take all of their accumulated knowledge with them; maybe it gets disseminated to a small group of folks, maybe they do a little teaching and coaching on the side. I wanted to do something much bigger than that. I wanted to reach a much larger potential audience.” - Dr. Andrew Temte  “Go to the Gemba - where the work happens and how teams interact. Listen to the people who interact with your customers. Set your ego aside and go to where the work happens, and listen to where the work is going on.” - Dr. Andrew Temte  “As a leader, you need to create clarity. Clarity for everybody involved: your customers, your vendors, your people, your investors, your stakeholders.” - Dr. Andrew Temte  “As a compassionate leader, you need to hear the successes and the pain points across the organization.” - Dr. Andrew Temte  “Compassionate leadership is Empathy + Willingness and the ability to do something about it.

Over time, RO membrane performance changes. The quality and quantity of permeate water produced and the energy required to produce it will vary.  In Episode 339, Jane Kucera, author of the book “Reverse Osmosis,” said, “There are six things that affect membrane performance:  fouling, scaling, membrane degradation, temperature, pressure, and concentration.”    I really like that succinct list: fouling, scaling, membrane degradation, temperature, pressure, and concentration. The impacts of each of these are interrelated and complex. Changes in one of them can either hide or exasperate the effects of another. For example, dropping temperature may reduce the permeate flow rate while increasing pressure may increase it, thus canceling out the effects of each.  This makes it next to impossible to determine the true performance of an RO system by simply looking at the raw data.    So, what's the solution? If we lived in the world of scifi, we could take today's RO membranes, put them into a time machine, activate the flux capacitor like in “Back to the Future,” travel back in time, and install those membranes in the RO machine at the same time they were started up, replaced, or even cleaned so you could measure how they would perform under the exact same conditions as the baseline. The same pressure, same temperature, and same water concentration. I keep saying the word “same,” but that is key here.  How would today's membranes perform in yesterday's machine under the same baseline conditions? Then you could eliminate the influences of changes in temperature, pressure, and concentration and figure out the real impacts of fouling, scaling, and membrane degradation. Simple, right? Now where did we put that flux capacitor? It's got to be around here somewhere. Oh, wait.  Flux capacitors don't actually exist yet. Dang it! Now what?    That's where normalization comes into play. Normalization is a fancy way of saying you are going to MATHEMATICALLY take those membranes back in time and adjust for changes in temperature, pressure, and concentration. This will allow you to make an apples-to-apples comparison of permeate flows by calculating the normalized permeate flow (NPF) of today to compare to the permeate flow at the baseline conditions.  The same goes for normalized pressure differential (NPD) and normalized salt rejection (NSR).  Your next logical question may be, “Well, where do I get these miraculous normalization equations?” While there are ASTM standards for such calculations, your easiest route is probably to visit your RO membrane manufacturer's website to download their normalization tool. It may be as simple as an Excel worksheet. If you manage an RO system, it is worth your time to learn how to use these tools to normalize your RO data so you know when it is time to clean the membranes and to find problems as they occur.   

On today's show, Pat and the boys are coming to you LIVE from Iowa City celebrating March Madness at the University of Iowa Field House. While in Iowa City Pat brings on University of Iowa legend Dallas Clark to juice up the live audience. They get right into the action from last night, diving into the big games in college basketball. Joining the progrum is Jack Gohlke from the University of Oakland to talk about his team nocking off Kentucky to move onto the second round and his performance shooting from deep. They finish off the hour talking about the upcoming NFL Draft class and closing the hour with Dallas Clark's opinion and expectations for Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Women's team. Coming back from a quick break, Pat and Dallas dive deep into the NFL talk discussing the latest rumors and news. While in Iowa the boys jump into potential first round pick and Iowa football stand out Cooper DeJean. The show then pivots back to the subject of March Madness as they give their insights on the women's tournament and Iowa's chances at winning it all. To end the second hour Pat brings on the legendary Iowa Hawkeyes marching band to perform and juice up the crowd. Next, The Tribal Chief, the GOAT, the WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns come onto the program on his road to Wrestle Mania XL to give some insight into his rise to the head of the table, pursuit of being the greatest of all time, and his manager the Wise Man, Paul Heyman going into the Hall of Fame. As Roman leaves Pat brings on the head coach of Iowa Women's Basketball Lisa Bluder to come and talk about her team and star player Caitlin Clark making history. To close out the show pat brings on another former teammate and Iowa legend linebacker Pat Angerer. Make sure you subscribe to YouTube.com/thepatmcafeeshow to watch the show.
