Welcome to Immersion, you have reached Strata 9Lust and Loins (Limerence)Limerence is a uniquely human phenomenon that new lovers, potential lovers, and sometimes even strangers, may experience. Limerence is a state of mind (not solely romantic) that typically includes persistent, sometimes depressing thoughts, and a deep yearning for the object of one's affection. It can be easily confused with love. Often human beings can find themselves addicted to these obsessive feelings and can easily be overwhelmed by adoration for another human being. Limerence cannot be turned on and off like a machine. It can come from nowhere and disappear without logic. The experience of this sensory state is proven to be inspiring, connective, unifying, disruptive, and even excruciating, yet it continues to mark the human trajectory of existence through time and place.'Good *dundeal Mr. Renyke Man.' said Flex excitedly.''We leave at dark, mind,' said Shabra. 'Take some time for food and rest. You might need your strength. I will get food.' Renyke watched her take weapons from the vehicle, knives and a small crossbow.The group is in an enclosure flanked by half-deconstructed concrete walls. There are large metal containers lying around with shrubbery and foliage trying to make a stand against the manmade environment. Tumbleweed played in the soft wind searching for a home.Maybeline scurried around searching for food and sniffing the air. She could smell something sinister, the scent of danger, as Renyke studied her movements.Flex kicked some redundant ashes by an upturned metal water tank. 'I can make us a fire,' he said, taking a pocket full of old rusty lighters and tinder from one of his huge pockets. His brightly coloured patchwork overcoat seemed to store an abundance of useful things. There were small pieces of mechanical paraphernalia, vintage innards from antique items, little motors, motherboards and old PC parts. There were secret pockets and compartments for weapons and a waterproof lining held everything together.‘Do you take this stuff everywhere you go?' asked Renyke.‘Yes sir-ee, some days *man'dun gotta make *swapsie-trade. .And other days, well, there are enemies and they kill for the fun of it. Everything has a use in the Zones brother. You learn that quick here.Maybeline found a water flow from a pipe tucked in the grass and took a long drink.Renyke began to pace, 'Shabra is taking her time,' he said, standing near the opening of the enclosure.‘She'll come, she is huntin' tis all my friend. You got attached already?'Renyke stared at Flex and mumbled, ‘We need that ride.'Then he checked POS whose signal was intermittent.'.......What are the signs of being attracted to somebody?'POS took a moment to compile a response……..……Do you mean human responses?'……yes, yes, of course ‘humans', Renyke replied.'POS continued…..nervousness around the subject of the attraction,…..extended thoughts about the subject,…..obsessive thoughts beyond normal curiosity about the subject,…..insomnia due to obsessive considerations of the subject,…..anxiety over possible outcomes of imaginary scenarios involving the subject,…..a desire to touch the intimate parts of the subject,…..dreams about the subject,…..fantasy building scenarios between the human and the subject,…..being overly concerned about….‘Enough,' said Renyke, irritated with the voice in his head.Finally Shabra returned.She carried two dead rabbits in her belt and washed a wide glinting blade under the water that flowed from the broken pipe.‘This water's good. Your rat is a good scout for provisions. We can fill up the tanks and flask before we go.'The new acquaintances are relaxed and considering preparation for the short but dangerous car journey to the *Edge.Shabra checked the vehicle mechanics, the doors and metal buttresses worked in perfect synch and there were six exhausts. She filled the water kegs and put them in the boot.‘Where is the vehicle from?' Asked Renyke.‘I built it,' answered Shabra, 'from scratch. 'Well, I had several wrecks and put my beaut together.Me n her, we like lovers. She drives me crazy with her vibes.'Shabra looked at Renyke parting her lips into a wry smile. They were oily from the fat of the meal.She winked through long dark lashes.Renyke felt a thump in his heart, a deep penetrating surge of something enthralling.Suddenly there is a distant high-pitched sound, like a siren or swarm. It seems to be getting louder when Flex and Shabra grab Renyke, throwing him into the vehicle.Seconds later they were surrounded by a marauding mass of screaming children. Some were made of broken body parts with human faces, others were small walking babies with burnt skin. Some had extra limbs and even two heads. They were crying and screeching, banging toy drums and chanting verses.One of them seemed to be the leader and he leapt onto Shabra's bonnet. The noise was deafening.  to be continued© 2025 Sarnia de la Mare

Welcome to the John Hallett PodcastHey everybody, welcome back to the John Hallett Podcast! Today we're diving deep into combative zones and action zones — the various distances and decision points you face in a real-life self-defense situation. These are critical concepts for anyone serious about their personal protection, especially those training in Krav Maga and other martial arts.We want to thank our growing community of listeners. If you want to support the podcast and our mission, check out SuckLess.co, our online training portal ClearSky.Training, and of course, our in-person programs at Rocky Mountain Self Defense & Fitness.Training the Mind and the BodySelf-defense isn't just a mental game. It's not enough to understand concepts — you have to train them physically. You have to push yourself, challenge your excuses, and build real-world skills through hard training.That's why I still do things like cold plunges. Not because I love it, but because it builds mental resilience. That mindset translates directly to self-defense. The world isn't getting safer, and we all need to be ready to act, not just think.Let's Talk ZonesWhen we break down combative zones, we're talking about the physical distance between you and a potential threat. Each zone requires different skills, awareness, and action. Here's a breakdown:Zone 4: Awareness (15–25 ft)This is your first line of defense — the decision-making zone. Can you spot a threat before it becomes an attack? You have a few seconds (maybe less) to:Recognize threatsCreate distanceCall 911Use command presence or verbal de-escalationThis zone is fluid. Someone athletic can close that gap in under 2 seconds. Train your awareness and threat recognition here.Zone 3: Engagement Prep (10–15 ft)Things are escalating. You may need to:Use tactical movement (create angles or barriers)Deploy a front kick to keep someone backConsider a weapon draw (only if truly justified)Training the front kick is essential here. But if you mistime it, you're vulnerable. Practice with movement. Don't just hit pads.Zone 2: Striking Range (5–10 ft)This is where people freeze up. You're now in a fight whether you like it or not.You must strike first if the threat is imminentWeapons like knives or guns may come outThis is not the time to reach for pepper spray or a firearm unless you've created the space to safely do soZone 1: Clinch / Close-Quarters (0–5 ft)Welcome to the worst-case scenario. You're being grabbed, taken down, or attacked with deadly intent. Now it's:Elbows, knees, headbutts (if trained)Weapon redirection and controlRelentless attack until the threat is neutralizedLadies: if someone is close enough to grab you, there is no half-measure. Be overwhelming in your response. Training breeds confidence and control in these critical moments.Reality-Based Training: Citizen Defender ClassThis is exactly what we do in our Citizen Defender class at RMSDF. You can't just train on a flat range and expect to perform under stress. You need:Stress inoculationScenario drills (Quantum Leap drills, for example)Close-quarters decision-makingWe train everything from pre-fight indicators to 911 protocol and what to say after a defensive incident. These are the real-life details that make the difference.Don't Wait. Train Now.Every day you delay is another day you remain unprepared. Our Clear Sky Training Portal lets you train from anywhere. And if you're local to Castle Rock, come train in person. You don't need to be fit. You just need to start.And for new listeners: we're offering one month free to get started. No excuses.

You just have to show up.Up Next on the Podcast Stay tuned for future episodes on:Time Hierarchy in Training5 Elements of Self-Defense LawDegrees of AssaultThe Truth About Martial Arts Failure RatesWhat to Do After a Self-Defense IncidentTrain smart.

This message from Pastor Lonnie challenges us to trade safety for faith. Using vivid personal stories and Matthew 14:22-33, it illustrates that transformative faith requires risk, just like Peter stepping out of the boat into a raging storm to walk toward Jesus. While Peter sank, he at least tried—unlike the others who stayed safe but missed the miracle. The core message is that comfort zones may feel secure, but they stunt spiritual growth. Jesus is still calling us to “Come,” to step out even if we might fall—because He'll always catch us. Faith doesn't grow in the boat; it grows on the water, and if you want to walk on water, you have to get out of the boat.

Conor Sheehan, Labour housing spokesperson and Pat Davitt, CEO, Institute of Professional Auctioneers and Valuers debate the use of rent pressures zones and proposals to remove rent caps.To listen to the full conversation, press the ‘play' button on this page.

The Government is planning big changes to Rent Pressure Zones. Under the new proposals, the 2% cap on rent increases will stay in place for existing tenants, but landlords will now be allowed to hike rents between tenancies and charge more for newly built homes.Critics are warning that it may open the door to runaway rents and put renters at greater risk.Joining Kieran to discuss further is Paul Murphy and Karl Deeter, Director of Irish Mortgage Brokers.

Rent pressure zones are set to be gotten rid of – with a plan going to cabinet soon.Currently, rent increases are capped at 2% a year, or at the rate of inflation, whichever is lower.But, will this do anything to solve the housing crisis?Joining Andrea to discuss is Maurice Deverell, Member of Irish Property Owners Association, Carol Tallon, CEO of Property District and author of ‘Irish Property Buyers Handbook Annual' as well as listeners.

Hey, everybody, let's see if we can get this one done without Josh. He is training in Minnesota with Nick doing another level of citizen defender. One might ask, why am I not there? They're doing the last level that Bill and I did, so they're getting it done. Good luck to those guys. I guess Josh already got need in the head in a drill by the one and only. All right, Minnesota Martial Arts. Now I'm gonna black on blank on his name. That is terrible. Oh, well, Greg Nelson. I had Todd Fosse, that's the instructor for ids, so mixed up those names. So I was gonna bring on Leo, my French bulldog, but he decided to work in the office with my wife. He's more popular today. He usually joins me in the afternoon, but he must be boycotting me. He is much better looking than Josh, but, you know, some people might argue. So today we're talking about training power zones. These are really important, guys. I'll bring up the slide from our Clear Sky Dot training. Oh, where is it? There it is. Website where you can train with us online. That's great for our students. You know, get on there, get in it. There's a ton of stuff, including testing for each belt level that is required here at Rocky Mountain Self Defense and Fitness, our home base here in Castle Rock, Colorado. So look, guys, I remember being a white belt and kind of my instructor calling me the wild and crazy one, the one and only Master Miller from Nantucket Taekwondo. He was always telling me to slow down. I had just came off high school football, and I just knew one thing like, go hard, go 100%. And that leads to injuries and a whole ton of other things that can happen in that 100% all out. And I'm constantly telling beginners, slow it down, slow it down. And you know what I see? Looks like I was going slow and. And you're all going. Or we are all going way faster than we think. You know, standing off to the sidelines, you start to see it. And you know, one thing I tell people, I've watched you hit the bag at 100%. You're pretty darn close to that in that drill or whatever we might have been doing. So to quickly summarize, zone one is zero to 20. Zone two is 20 to 40% speed and power. So zone three, 40 to 60. Zone four, controlled speed and power. And zone five, 80 to 100. And we're leaving that to testing. You know, once in a while type of training where you can get hurt, but we need to do that. Sometimes test our mental toughness and put us under that real world stress. But the likelihood of getting hurt, injured on those always goes up. So we don't want to spend much time in zone five at all. Now look, zone one, it's on the slide a bit here, but I'm looking on my bigger screen because of my old eyes. Slow is smooth. You know, if you learn slow, you can get this stuff down. You know, focus on precision, timing, the mechanics. You're really going way slower than you think you should. There's really no power behind everything you do, you know, we'll call it slow touch sparring. When we're doing sparring at this level, it's just slow. It's just landing the light touch. Just. You're not even going to knock over that glass of water. I always kind of joke around and say, you know, unless you have a sippy cup at the dinner table, you know, you should be able to reach out and touch somebody without smashing them. You know, you want to build clean habits and good muscle memory here. You want to learn more on quote unquote muscle memory? Check out Andrew Huberman's podcast. That's fantastic. Neuro guy. I forget his whole repertoire. But we were not going to get into Andrew Huberman. So, you know, the philosophy here is slow is smooth and smooth is fast. One of my first levels, I can't remember the first or second. And I had a guy that I was training with in the hotel after, and he said to me after the test, wow, I kind of thought you were really slow and wonky, some things of that effect. And, and I said, you know, why'd you think that? Oh, when we were training, you just did. Everything was really slow. Like I'm just trying to get it down so when I do go fast, the wheels aren't falling off. You're building good habits. It pays off in the long run. You know, zone two, where, you know, we're moving up a little bit, 20 to 40%. But it is still pretty darn slow here, guys. 20 to 40%. Not that fast at all. Want our reactions to become natural in these. Sorry to click the slide. For those of you guys on YouTube, you can check these slides out without even visiting our portal or signing up for a low cost membership on there. All this stuff takes time and until I hit Powerball, I'm trying to make some money. All right, let's see. Focus, flow control, consistent technique. Being able to do it time after time without your, let's say uppercut, you know, breaking 90 degrees being too far away from the person. We're doing this in self defense. You know, you're building those good habits that I'm using this tool. It's slow enough to recognize. I have an uppercut, elbow, I have whatever technique, a knee strike. Hey, they're a little bit further away. I need to go to a kick or they're further away. I need to go to an advancing kick pick to keep my tools on this guy and to stay engaged, right? Power is really low to moderate. It's not gonna cause bruising. Most people aren't going to say ouch when you hit him at 20%. You know, you get up to 40, you know, depending on somebody, but it starts to get you accustomed to getting hit. We even say with our kick shields, you're getting used to getting hit. So this is not a big shot shock in an actual fight. And a lot of people fool themselves and think they're going to be fine. And then there's utter shock on their face when they actually get hit. Even remote, even at 50%, never mind somebody hitting you at full speed. So we want to kind of get used to getting hit and sparring and all that type of stuff at this 20 to 40 zone, get comfortable with it. You know, it doesn't happen overnight. We want to be able to groove in the movements. You know, safe repetition builds confidence. You know, you're not. Your partner's not freaking out and doing weird things on you because you're just going so fast and out of control and they're just trying to stay the heck away from you. We want to spend most of our training time in zone one and two. That's 60%. You know, if you kind of do the math on those, we're in there. It's a good, good zones to be in. My favorite two zones, constantly saying, if you don't see the fight slow, you're not seeing it fast. You're just fooling yourself. You're just windmilling in, you're just spazzing out. You know, hey, when in doubt, be aggressive, spaz out. You know, by all means, windmill in. But man, I don't want to have to resort to those type of things. Zone 3 is at 40 to 60%. Smooth is fast, right? Focus on realism without recklessness. Again, nobody wants to be your partner when you're crazy. Speed's moderate. Our power is controlled and clean. You're able to stop that punch. You're going slow enough that you can stop the strike. You know, your partner maybe moves a little bit under Unexpectedly, you're still able to control that. And that's a thing that takes time. It's repetition, like everything else. Repetition, purpose, add pressure while still staying sharp. You know, we're going to spend about 20% of our training time on this. And one note on all of these. You know, they're great to do on a heavy bag. You know, when you're kicking a kick shield, you can practice these things, shadow boxing without a partner and kind of feel your own speeds and try to figure that out. And, you know, when in doubt, video yourself. Be your own coach. You know, watch yourself, try, like full speed and then go, all right, let me cut that down in half and really try to relate that. It's a tough thing to do. It's a tough thing to even watch and kind of tell, but you just have to do it. It's a tougher things for coaches. You know, figuring out people and, you know, their different speeds and knowing, you know, hey, that guy is actually extremely fast. I think of coach Ben. He's extreme explosive and fast, more so than the average person. So watching different people, it's always a challenge for coaches to, you know, help that person along their journey. This 60 to 80, I guess that's where I'm at. Timing under pressure. Zone four is where we're at. Sorry, I need Josh. Timing under pressure, speed. You know, you're going fast here. Power's high, but with restraint, you know, you're still able to pull it off even if you're hitting them pretty hard. You were. You were dialing it back. That happens to me, you know, quite a bit at this speed that, you know, something happens whether, you know, you get away from yourself a little bit. You know, a lot of times a person moves, you're still able to pull the brakes. Even though you probably hit that person at 50%. But you were, you know, you dialed the back 25%. It's a tough thing to do and recognize in fighting. You know, I want to find my cracks in my technique. You know, the wheel, you know, things start, you know, coming off, coming unhinged. The wheels are coming off the car at this, and you really start to recognize, I should be spending some more time in zone one or two, possibly to kind of fix those errors that were happening under that type of speed and stress, you know, 15% of the time. Zone five. All right, 80 to 100. That's a stress test. What are you doing? It's probably in an advanced test is where we're going to see this. And I actually Just updated these slides here on some of this. I guess I added it on mine, but not on yours because we've got takeaways coming up next. But, you know, you're going max speed and max power, you know, simulates a real fight stress. But we're rarely doing this right because of that high risk of injury, you know, a concussion, all that type of stuff, or training this fast. We don't want to do it that much, but we have to do it sometimes. I'll use the NFL and go, when are these guys hitting full speed? They're. They're hitting full speed, you know, in preseason. But once they get in season, it's game day, right? It's game day. And for us at Rocky Mountain, it's throw down the gauntlet in that advanced testing zone. When somebody's mentally, mentally and physically ready to do this, it's going to defeat under belts, even though they might feel that they're ready. This is a good deal of training that you're getting up and going in that 80 to 100% stress level for people. You know, what's, you know, ground fighting, stand up fighting, you know, bull in the ring type of thing where you're doing self defense. That's really tough to be going hard because, you know, you're being a bad guy, you're attacking the person. You're not quite doing things that you would normally do, but you know, you got to defend yourself on those. So a bit of it is got to be you as the actual fighter, but you're training somebody that's trying to go really full tilt. So we're not spending a lot of time in these. It's not part of your daily or monthly training routine there. This is where you've got to train more. You know, I say it all the time, but that's what it comes down to. A whole lot of the times that we just need to go slow. We don't need to defeat somebody, especially as coaches, by going way too fast. It. We want to be able to, you know, give them the car keys when they're ready for the car keys and not before. So I think this about wraps it up, especially without Josh. You know, it's kind of a quick one here. I'll look through a couple of my other notes. I guess I didn't hit your takeaways or a little bit further down if you're watching on YouTube. I added a couple things. You know, number one, takeaway, we train smart, we train safe, we train for real life, but nobody needs to Be injured unnecessarily because that is gonna happen when you're going fast. You know, injuries do happen. It's part of contact sports. Actually, a real beginner in our citizen defender class just said, you know, you guys are always hurt. Well, like sometimes, yeah, you're banged up. I played contact sports since I was in the fifth grade. Yeah, my knees currently looking to be evaluated by the doctor and see what's going on. But there was nothing in class that happened. It's just, you know, wear and tear. That's things that happen. And, you know, she was a little concerned about getting hurt, but I'm like, you know, we're slowly ramping you up. You know, any good school you're, you know, she was referring to watching the advanced people. I'm like, you're comparing somebody that's been in my gym 5 years plus is what she was comparing some students. I mean, some of them had even longer than that. As a beginner, you're going to start off slow and easy. You know, that's zone one and two. Nobody needs to get hurt and you need to be ready for that higher level training. Even though. Right. We all think we're ready for that higher level training after, you know, our first intro class, especially the guys. Takeaway 2. How we train is how we fight. Right. You've got to be realistic, but you also have to be safe. And different aspects of this is just huge. You know, the habits you build in training, your timing, your composure, your discipline. I was actually just saying somebody today, like, settle down. You're getting like really aggressive, trying to push your daughter around. And you know, her daughter's, you know, teenager. I think she's probably 17, 18. You're, you're just trying to go too hard. Just relax. You're getting, you can see, I can see that you're muscling the technique, like relax, you know, under pressure. We want to be relaxed. Let's see, where do I leave off on that? Your timing, your composure, your discipline are exactly what will, what you will rely on when it counts. Train sloppy, fight sloppy. Right. You just kind of look like crap. You're windmilling in and we all degrade. One of my favorite things, you know, to watch as Olympic weightlifting for this because you can see the person degrade as their weight goes up, you know, under that stress, under that load. And if you lift crappy and you have crappy technique, man, does it look totally horrible when you're trying to get up to your max level or close, you know, an 80% max and 90% max. And your technique is sloppy. It is terrible. The best trained person is coming undone with stress and fatigue. So if you train that way and your punch is crappy, you know, in class, it's going to be worse under stress. You know, don't fool yourself. Train with purpose and you'll respond with power and control. All right, guys, we're going to wrap it up here. Want to keep that one under 30 minutes and we're at like 17, so. Doing great without Josh, but not really. He misses insights on this one. But we will catch you guys next time. Let's check out. I can let you guys check it out. We've got two of the same slides for you guys.

God often moves His people from seasons of comfort into seasons of calling. Just as Nehemiah served in the prestigious position of cupbearer to King Artaxerxes, many of us have found ourselves in comfortable places. Yet God's kingdom work frequently requires us to step beyond our comfort zones into spaces where our hearts break for His purposes.

Send us a textOn this episode of the Hotflash inc podcast, journalist and founder Ann Marie McQueen is joined by Dr Heidi Lescanec, a naturopathic physician based in Vancouver, BC, who brings over two decades of experience blending the latest scientific research with natural, clinically proven forms of medicine.Heidi has coined the term The Pink Zones to describe the cultural, emotional, physical, and communal conditions that allow women to not only navigate perimenopause and menopause – but to thrive. She's been listening to older, wiser women, and noticing the powerful patterns that emerge when we prioritize meaning, connection, and nervous system support over the relentless push to do more, be more, fix more.From hormone health and adrenal burnout to grief, rage, and the unprocessed emotions that surface at midlife, this conversation goes beyond symptom lists and into what it really means to design this season of life, rather than just survive it.Heidi and Ann Marie also dig into the nocebo effect, why outdated menopause narratives can actually make us feel worse, and how to reframe this transition as a gateway – not a decline.Highlights:Dr. Heidi Lescanec's integrative approach to hormone health, combining science, spirituality, and food-as-medicineIntroduction to The Pink Zones: envisioning supportive environments that celebrate women's agingExploration of how past generations managed menopause, transforming stigma into strength About Dr Heidi Lescanec:Dr Heidi Lescanec is a licensed naturopathic physician practicing in Vancouver, BC.

durée : 00:20:43 - Journal de 12h30 - Les députés ont acté mercredi soir la suppression des ZFE, mises en place il y a six ans pour limiter la pollution de l'air dans les grandes villes de France. Est-il encore possible de voter des mesures environnementales ambitieuses en France ?

Les députés ont voté pour la suppression des Zones à faibles émissions (ZFE), ces zones restreignant la circulation de certains véhicules polluants. De nombreux élus critiquent le dispositif depuis ses débuts en 2019, parce qu'il discriminerait une partie plus précaire de la population. David Belliard, adjoint à la mairie de Paris chargé des mobilités, et candidat écologiste aux prochaines élections municipales, est l'invité événement de RTL Soir.

A Garden Chat with Don TitmusJoin Farmer Greg Peterson and Don Titmus, a horticulturist and permaculturist as they reflect on their 20-year friendship and shared journey in permaculture. They outline the fundamental principles of permaculture. They introduce the concepts from permaculture of elements, zones and stacking functions, where each element in a design performs multiple roles, using chickens as a primary example. They look at how zones and sectors work in permaculture design, emphasizing the importance of understanding the external elements and how they impact the property. Greg and Don also mention the Permaculture Design Course (PDC) they offer, tailored for different climatic regions, and encourage in-person attendance for enriched learning. They conclude by encouraging contributions to support their educational efforts and thank viewers for participating.Our Guest: Don grew up in London and at age 16 spent 4 years being trained in horticulture through an apprenticeship and a college course. From there he continued landscaping in his hometown until he moved to Arizona in 1981, where he worked in landscaping and then starting his own business in garden maintenance. In 2003 he attended a Permaculture Design Course, which was life-changing for Don. He knew right away that this was the path he'd been waiting for, and later attended two Permaculture Teacher Trainings.Visit www.urbanfarm.org/884-garden for the show notes on this episode, and access to our full podcast library!Need a little bit of advice or just a feedback on your design for your yard or garden?The Urban Farm Team is offering consults over the phone or zoom.

P.M. Edition for May 13. Companies seek to access foreign-trade zones as they navigate rising U.S. tariffs. WSJ news associate Owen Tucker-Smith reports on how the country's roughly 260 foreign-trade zones allow them to defer tariffs on imported goods and materials, for a while. And the latest consumer-price index showed prices rose 2.3% in the 12 months through April, slowing from a 2.4% rate a month earlier. Economics reporter Chao Deng considers U.S. tariffs' effects on that price growth. Plus, President Trump announced an end to sanctions on Syria during the first of a four-day trip to the Middle East. The move would give Syria's new rulers a financial lifeline. Alex Ossola hosts. Sign up for the WSJ's free What's News newsletter. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
