Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Korea's brief but significant period as an empire as it moved from the 500-year-old dynastic Joseon monarchy towards modernity. It was in October 1897 that King Gojong declared himself Emperor, seizing his chance when the once-dominant China lost to Japan in the First Sino-Japanese War. The king wanted to have the same status as the neighbouring Russian, Chinese and Japanese Emperors, to shore up a bid for Korean independence and sovereignty when the world's major powers either wanted to open Korea up to trade or to colonise it. The Korean Empire lasted only thirteen years, yet it was a time of great transformation for this state and the whole region with lasting consequences in the next century…With Nuri Kim Associate Professor in Korean Studies at the faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Cambridge and Fellow of Wolfson CollegeHolly Stephens Lecturer in Japanese and Korean Studies at the University of EdinburghAnd Derek Kramer Lecturer in Korean Studies at the University of SheffieldProducer: Simon TillotsonReading list:Isabella Bird Bishop, Korea and her Neighbors: A Narrative of Travel, With an Account of the Recent Vicissitudes and Present Position of the Country (first published 1898; Forgotten Books, 2019)Vipan Chandra, Imperialism, Resistance and Reform in Late Nineteenth-Century Korea: Enlightenment and the Independence Club (University of California, Institute of East Asian Studies, 1988)Peter Duus, The Abacus and the Sword: The Japanese Penetration of Korea, 1859-1910 (University of California Press, 1995)Carter J.

Meeting summary for PublishDrive Q and A (09/03/2024)Quick recapThe team discussed the benefits and new features of Publish Drive, a platform that supports authors and publishers, including a free plan, a metadata generator tool, and a royalty splitter tool. They also explored the cost-effectiveness and time-saving aspects of using Publish Drive for catalog management, sales events, and promotions, as well as the potential for using AI-generated audio for book publishing. Challenges and potential improvements were also discussed, with a focus on continuous improvement and better communication within the team.Next steps• Russell to explore using Publish Drive for comic book distribution and connect with Danica for more details.• Monica to investigate using Publish Drive's Abacus tool for co-authored book royalty splitting.• Danica to follow up with Russell and Monica at upcoming conferences to discuss Publish Drive's ecosystem approach.• Publish Drive team to improve communication about their full range of services and tools to authors.• Authors interested in Publish Drive to reach out to Danica at danica@publishdrive.com for more information or personalized assistance.SummaryPublish Drive's New Features and ToolsRussell, Danica, and Monica discussed the recent announcement from Publish Drive, a platform that supports authors and publishers. Danica, the community manager at Publish Drive, explained that they now offer a free plan, allowing anyone to upload a book and try out their services. They also launched a metadata generator tool, which uses AI to create book descriptions and keywords, helping authors improve their marketing efforts. Additionally, Publish Drive introduced Abacus, a royalty splitter tool, designed to simplify the process of splitting earnings among multiple authors. The team expressed excitement about these new offerings and their potential to support authors at different stages of their journey.Discussing Publish Drive Benefits and CostsRussell and Danica discussed the benefits of using Publish Drive for authors, particularly those making less than $5 on a book. They highlighted the cost-effectiveness of Publish Drive compared to other solutions and the time-saving aspect of having a dedicated person, Frushi, who sends out promotional emails for store promotions. Danica also mentioned a tool that allows authors to compare the costs and benefits of using Publish Drive versus competitors. Monica shared her experience of going direct with some of her books, but noted that she still has some books that are not yet published.Discussing PublishDrive for Catalog ManagementMonica and Danica discussed the benefits and challenges of using PublishDrive for catalog management. Monica highlighted the cost-effectiveness of using PublishDrive, especially for large catalogs, and the ability to easily upload content to various platforms. Danica emphasized the importance of author feedback in improving the platform and the support provided by PublishDrive's customer success manager for transferring reviews. They also discussed the potential for future improvements and the platform's role as a software as a service. Monica expressed her need to explore the Abacus feature for co-authored content.Discussing Publish Drive for Sales Events and PromotionsDanica, Russell, and Monica discussed the benefits of using Publish Drive for sales events and promotions. Russell highlighted the convenience of not having to individually find and upload to each store, and the potential cost savings compared to using aggregators. They also discussed the importance of analyzing the effectiveness of their current processes and considering alternatives, such as using Publish Drive for all sales events. Monica emphasized the potential cost savings of using Publish Drive, as it bundles in payments that would otherwise be made separately.Product Integration and User-Friendly Dashboard DiscussionRussell expressed his satisfaction with the integration of various products into a single dashboard, which he found more user-friendly than logging into multiple dashboards. He also appreciated the ability to see all necessary information in one place, especially for promotions and price consistency. Danica agreed with Russell's feedback and mentioned that they occasionally conduct user interviews to improve the user-friendliness of their products. She also highlighted a new feature, the pod template generator, which can convert ebook covers into print covers, a feature that could be beneficial for authors like herself.AI Audio for Book Publishing ChallengesThe team discussed the advantages and challenges of using AI-generated audio for book publishing across different platforms. Danica mentioned that while Apple's AI audio is exclusive to their platform, Google Play's AI audio can be distributed to other stores like Kobo and libraries through Publish Drive. Managing multiple dashboards was highlighted as a challenge, with Danica preferring simpler processes. Moving books to Publish Drive was discussed, with Danica offering assistance from their customer success manager. Monica inquired about Publish Drive's ability to accept and distribute Google Play's AI audio, which Danica confirmed. Danica also mentioned upcoming presentations at author nation conferences to discuss Publish Drive's ecosystem and capabilities.Comic Creator Challenges and Platform SolutionsDanica and Russell discussed the challenges faced by comic creators in uploading their work to various platforms. Danica confirmed that their platform serves the comic community and that one prominent comic creator is making significant profits through their site. She offered to connect Russell with their customer success manager to help him navigate the process. Monica expressed interest in this topic, suggesting it could be a potential episode for their show. The conversation ended with an emphasis on continuous improvement and better communication within the team.Discussing Publish Drive and AI Tools for AuthorsRussell and Danica discussed the benefits of using Publish Drive as a distribution platform for authors. They highlighted the platform's ability to reach a wider audience, including places where other distributors may not have a presence. Danica emphasized the importance of authors being able to control which stores their books are distributed to. Russell also mentioned the challenges of using Apple's system, suggesting that Publish Drive could be a more user-friendly option. The team also discussed the potential for using AI tools to increase author efficiency and the upcoming Author Nation conference where Danica will be speaking about Publish Drive and AI tools.

According to a survey published this month by Abacus Data, 65 per cent of Canadians believe the next federal government should increase defence spending. Abacus also found that more than a third of Canadians want party leaders to be talking about national defence and security in this election. This comes as the government says the Armed Forces are well below its target for what it describes as "training, readiness and operational requirements".Our question: Does Canadian military spending need to change? How will it affect your vote?

In this episode of #DefenceDeconstructed, David Perry sit down with the Founder, Chair and CEO of Abacus Data, David Coletto. The pair discuss key features of the Canadian elections campaign, the impact of the international issues and Donald Trump on the campaign, and a recent Abacus survey focused on international issues. // Guest bios: David Coletto is the Founder, Chair and CEO of Abacus Data. He is one of Canada's best known and most respected public opinion analysts, pollsters, and social researchers. He's a member of the Board of Directors of the Ottawa Board of Trade and Ottawa Riverkeeper and on the policy committee of Imagine Canada. // Host bio: David Perry is President and CEO of the Canadian Global Affairs Institute // Recommended Readings: - "Bowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community" by Robert Putnam. // Defence Deconstructed was brought to you by Irving Shipbuilding. // Music Credit: Drew Phillips | Producer: Jordyn Carroll Release date: 11 April 2025

Entrevue avec Pierre-Hugues Boisvenu, sénateur retraité. Selon Pierre-Hugues Boisvenu, les électeurs de 55 ans et plus pourraient être décisifs dans une victoire de Mark Carney. Il insiste sur la responsabilité générationnelle que représente le droit de vote. À la lumière de données de Léger, Angus Reid et Abacus, les intentions de vote varient fortement selon l’âge : les jeunes tendent vers les conservateurs, tandis que les baby-boomers appuient massivement les libéraux.

W samym sercu Unii Europejskiej wybuchła ogromna afera korupcyjna. W jej centrum jest 15 europosłów oraz chiński Huawei, który ponoć miał wręczać łapówki i różne korzyści majątkowe europejskim urzędnikom - w zamian za popieranie korzystnych dla niego zmian w prawie. Takiej afery Bruksela nie widziała przynajmniej od czasów niesławnej QatarGate. O co poszło? Oczywiście o technologię 5G, w której Huawei wciąż ma najwięcej patentów, jego rozwiązania są bardzo nowoczesne i przystępne cenowo. Ale ze względu na chiński rodowód firmy, operatorzy coraz rzadziej sięgają po jego produkty. W tle całego zamieszania są też oczywiście Chiny, które ze względów ideologicznych i po prostu gospodarczych za wszelką cenę starają się nie pozwolić na "krzywdzenie" swojego czempiona. Dlatego w tym odcinku podcastu "Techstorie" opowiadamy o tym, dlaczego chińskie pochodzenie Huawei jest dziś dla niego brzemieniem i co do tego ma chińskie prawo, o tym jak korupcja i działania korupcjopochodne przewijają się w działaniach chińskich firm i w końcu - jak w Parlamencie Europejskim działa tabun lobbystów technologicznych, którzy starają się zza kulis pociągać za sznurki. A dodatkowo - w tej historii pojawia się też "polski łącznik"!

Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - Depending on which election poll you are looking at, the Liberals are leading by anywhere from 5 to 10 points nationally. The last poll to suggest the Conservatives were tied with them was taken by Abacus on February 4, 2025. An Angus Reid poll taken on April 7, 2025 found that in British Columbia the Liberal Party leads by 11 points. It's more difficult to get a breakdown riding by riding. While 338Canada's projections are generally fairly accurate, they are calculated using a mostly proportional swing model adjusted with provincial and regional polls. In North Island Powell River there are currently at least three factors which this approach does not take into account. Firstly there is the widespread reaction to a series of tweets Conservative candidate Aaron Gunn made between 2019 and 2021. Many people feel his comments about residential schools are demeaning to First Nations and at this point 57 elected and former politicians, as well as Frst Nation leaders, have signed a joint letter calling for his resignation. So has every other candidate in North Island Powell River. There is also a little group of 9 politicians, primarily based in Campbell River, who have come out in support of Gunn. However with this kind of controversy going on, it is difficult to believe that 48% of the electorate would vote for Aaron Gunn if there were an election today. There is also NDP candidate Tanille Johnson's popularity with some of the electorate, and the fact Bob Chamberlain, former Vice President of the Union of BC Indian Chiefs, endorses her. Lastly, Liberal candidate Jennifer Lash, her Campaign Manager and Deputy Campaign Manager are all government staffers with an intimate understanding of how elections are run. When I interviewed Deputy Campaign Manager Holly Johnson last week, they had recruited 150 volunteers. Those are three good reasons to ignore 338Canada's projections for North Island Powell River. The only poll that could tell us what is going on in North Island Powell River must be taken here.

Abacus Global Management (NASDAQ:ABL) CEO Jay Jackson takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company's strong financial performance in 2024 and its strategic outlook for 2025. The pioneering alternative asset manager reported 69% year-over-year revenue growth for 2024, with the fourth quarter alone seeing a 40% increase. Jackson noted that 2023 was already a record year, and 2024 surpassed that benchmark by over 50%. The company has issued guidance for 2025 that anticipates adjusted net income to rise by between 51% and 68%, driven by continued demand for non-correlated assets. Founded over 20 years ago, Abacus recently rebranded from Abacus Life to better reflect its identity as an alternative asset manager. Jackson explained, “We're an asset manager... and we also own a large institutional asset manager in Luxembourg,” underlining the firm's expanding global footprint. Growth drivers include strategic acquisitions, expansion of its financial advisor channel, and development in its technology division. Jackson emphasized the role of AI in analyzing health and lifespan data to support financial planning, stating, “Think about the billion scenarios in someone's lifespan… AI helps us understand more accurate outcomes.” Jackson believes 2025 will bring increasing attention to the firm's asset management operations, complementing its origination and technology capabilities.

In this episode, we tackle the challenge so many of us are facing right now: how do you choose the right AI tools without getting overwhelmed by the endless options? With over 32,000+ tools out there (yes, really), it's easy to fall into analysis paralysis or end up subscribing to a dozen platforms you barely use. Nihal and I share our favorite go-to tools, what we're using in our own businesses, and how to evaluate which platforms are truly worth your time and money. We also explore the difference between individual LLMs (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) versus aggregator platforms (like Abacus and Poe), and how each one fits into a short-term rental operator's toolkit. We even take a side trip into dog diet planning using Claude (yes, AI really can do that), and why being intentional is the most important skill you can develop when integrating AI into your business.   ________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Revolutionize Your Employee Onboarding with THRIVE Essentials: Faster Training, Stronger Teams, Better Results! Discover how THRIVE Essentials accelerates onboarding for new property management staff, boosting performance and reducing turnover. >> THRIVE Essentials Are you listening to this podcast on the move?

For centuries, magic and warfare have been deeply intertwined, shaping military strategy, morale, and even battlefield outcomes. From Mesopotamian divination and Greek war omens to medieval sacred warfare and modern occult operations, supernatural beliefs have influenced how wars are fought and won. In this episode, we explore the forgotten history of magical warfare, revealing how esoteric traditions have been used to protect warriors, disrupt enemies, and even alter the course of history.Did John Dee's Enochian magic help defeat the Spanish Armada? Were Nazi leaders using occult knowledge for strategic advantage? And did British Wiccans perform a ritual to psychically deter Hitler from invading Britain? We examine historical records, esoteric practices, and modern interpretations of war magic, shedding light on one of history's most mysterious intersections of the mystical and the military.

In this episode of Power Producers Shoptalk, David Carothers dives into a topic that every insurance producer cares about—commissions. But instead of breaking it down himself, he brings in the expert who handles it all: Crystal Temple Frawley from The Pemberley Group. Crystal, a seasoned insurance accounting professional, shares her insights on agency bill, commission reconciliation, and the technology that's reshaping bookkeeping for insurance agencies. She discusses the unique challenges agencies face when managing their books, the common pitfalls of relying on generic bookkeeping services, and the importance of leveraging specialized expertise. The conversation also touches on how advancements in automation and AI are streamlining commission reconciliation, saving agencies time, and ensuring financial accuracy. Key Points: Mastering Commission Reconciliation David and Crystal discuss why commission reconciliation is one of the most critical yet challenging aspects of agency accounting. Crystal explains how audits, tracking, and technology can help agencies ensure they're getting paid accurately—and on time. The Role of Technology in Bookkeeping The insurance industry has long struggled with outdated processes, but Crystal highlights how technology is finally catching up. From automation to AI-driven commission tracking, she shares how modern tools can eliminate inefficiencies and reduce costly errors. Outsourcing vs. DIY Accounting Crystal breaks down when an agency should consider outsourcing bookkeeping rather than managing it in-house. She explains why using generic accounting services like QuickBooks Live often leads to costly cleanup work and why specialized expertise is essential for accurate financial management. The Human Element in Financial Oversight Despite technological advancements, Crystal emphasizes that human expertise is irreplaceable when it comes to financial oversight. She explains how automated tools can handle data entry, but strategic decision-making and financial analysis still require a hands-on approach from an experienced bookkeeper. Knowing When It's Time to Delegate David and Crystal explore how agency owners often hesitate to outsource financial management, believing they can handle it themselves. Crystal explains the signs that indicate it's time to delegate bookkeeping—like spending more time reconciling commissions than selling policies. If you're an agency owner wondering how to streamline your financial processes, ensure accurate commission reconciliation, and make smarter decisions with your accounting, this episode is packed with valuable insights you won't want to miss.
