Cochlear implants are neat little devices that drastically improve one's quality of life. However, only about 10% of those that qualify for cochlear implants have actually received one. When one thinks of cochlear implants, the first thing that might come to mind is surgery--invasive, lengthy, with a long time of recovery. However, at PNI, patients can expect a much faster, minimally invasive treatment option. Dr. Rebecca Lewis, the Audiology Director of the Adult & Pediatric Cochlear Implant Program, highlights the importance of getting an evaluation done, and early. Studies have shown that the earlier one gets treatment for their hearing issues, the better the outcome. Mathilde Tranberg, an outreach and patient support specialist at PNI, is a cochlear implant recipient herself. As she was implanted as a child, she knows firsthand how helpful it can be. Her goal is to spread the word about cochlear implants through community outreach and education. Listen in and learn about how these innovative devices are changing lives.

Cette semaine, à l'approche de la sortie du nouveau film de James Gunn début juin, consacré à l'un des héros les plus emblématiques de DC Comics, nous consacrons notre nouvel épisode de ComicsDiscovery à Superman: Origines Secrètes. Ce récit emblématique de Geoff Johns et Gary Frank revisite les fondations du mythe de Superman tout en le modernisant. C'est un oiseau, c'est un avion… c'est Geoff Johns et Gary Frank !Le nom de ce duo créatif devrait vous sembler familier si vous écoutez régulièrement ComicsDiscovery. Geoff Johns joue un rôle central dans l'histoire moderne de DC Comics. Pendant plusieurs années, il supervise l'éditorial de l'éditeur et réinvente de nombreux personnages. Ce scénariste passionné exprime un amour profond pour la Distinguée Concurrence et démontre une connaissance impressionnante du Golden Age et du Silver Age, notamment en ce qui concerne Superman, Batman ou encore la Justice Society of America. Il remet régulièrement en lumière des personnages oubliés et construit des récits riches en émotions. Parmi ses œuvres les plus marquantes, on retrouve Green Lantern: Rebirth, The Flash: Rebirth, Infinite Crisis, Doomsday Clock et sa relance de la Justice League pendant l'ère New 52. Gary Frank, illustrateur britannique reconnu, accompagne souvent Johns dans ses projets. Son style réaliste et cinématographique marque profondément les œuvres qu'il touche. Grâce à ses traits fins, il transmet avec précision les émotions de ses personnages. Il illustre notamment Doomsday Clock, Batman: Earth One et Shazam!. Son dessin, détaillé et expressif, modernise l'image des héros DC tout en respectant leur héritage visuel. Superman: Origines Secrètes – Retour aux sourcesDans Superman: Origines Secrètes (Superman: Secret Origin), le duo Johns et Frank choisit de revisiter les débuts de Superman, à une période clé de l'univers DC, juste après Infinite Crisis. Johns reconstruit les origines de Kal-El en mettant l'accent sur les éléments mythologiques fondateurs du personnage, tout en adaptant son histoire aux lecteurs modernes. Il replace Superboy à Smallville, suit les premiers pas de Clark Kent en tant que héros adolescent, et orchestre ses premières rencontres avec ceux qui formeront la future Justice League. Dans cette version, le Clark Kent que l'on découvre rappelle fortement celui du film de Richard Donner sorti en 1978. Grâce aux dessins de Gary Frank, qui s'inspire ouvertement de l'acteur Christopher Reeve, cette version du personnage rend un vibrant hommage au cinéma tout en conservant sa propre personnalité. Accessible, émotive et fidèle à l'esprit du personnage, Origines Secrètes s'impose comme un excellent point d'entrée pour ceux qui souhaitent (re)découvrir Superman. L'album allie le respect du passé à une narration fluide et moderne.

For episode 75 of Read Between the Wines, we head to the northern reaches of the Médoc to explore an iconic place in Saint-Estèphe—Château Tour des Termes. General Manager Julien Brustis joins us for a refreshingly candid conversation about shaking the dust off Bordeaux tradition without losing its soul. From climate-savvy vineyard replanting to the launch of a white wine (yes, in Saint-Estèphe!), Julien walks us through the estate's bold new chapter under the O'Connor family's stewardship. We talk terroir, tannins, and why their Merlot-heavy blend is aging like a fine… well, Merlot. He also shares how biodiversity, regenerative viticulture, and a carbon-neutral winery by 2026 aren't just noble goals—they're part of the business plan. We discuss the art of modern Bordeaux: wines that can charm your palate after five years, not just after your retirement. And in true Tour des Termes fashion, Julien explains how the Château is becoming more open, more welcoming, and yes—more fun. Accessible yet age-worthy, fresh yet full of soul—Tour des Termes might just be the Saint-Estèphe you didn't know you needed.

“JJ” Jessica Reeder, a workplace innovation and culture transformation leader, shares insights from her deep experience designing communications systems, scaling multicultural teams and aligning culture with strategy. Bringing pivotal learnings from early fully-remote companies such as Toptal and GitLab, JJ explains how self-management, thorough documentation, and systematized collaboration underpin successful remote work. She describes the cultural shifts required for hybrid and distributed workforces and advocates for systems thinking and clear communication to empower modern work managers.     TAKEAWAYS   [01:24] JJ didn't know what studying linguistics would entail when she chose it but she loved it.   [02:47] Linguistics gives JJ a framework to understand the history of humanity and migration. [03:10] Living in another culture opens up her global perspective and gives her a different lens. [04:24] JJ's appreciation for engineers stems from their clarity and direct information transfer style. [05:49] JJ transitions early to working remotely focused on content and communication projects. [06:35] Noticing the growth of formal distributed work, JJ joins one of the first all remote companies.   [07:14] JJ starts building a distributed community across cultures for a global virtual developer network. [08:15] Nurturing connections among talented remote professionals requires deliberate strategies. [08:56] Remote talent feels more connected when engaged with a peer community. [09:54] JJ moves to GitLab to explore systematized connectivity and is launched into remote work consulting by the pandemic. [13:01] GitLab was designed for remote work with full documentation, tools, and systems. [14:11] Realizations they need to understand other companies' different perspectives. [16:44] Conviction in remote work but recognition that unprepared managers are challenged. [18:30] JJ highlights self-management as a cornerstone of GitLab's decentralized operating model. [19:07] Clear documentation and SOPs reduce managerial load while teaching remote processes. [20:35] Others' embrace of remote work affirms JJ's long-held belief in the global distributed workforce. [22:34] JJ studies industrial organizational psychology and joins Upwork for an applied learning experience.   [23:24] JJ helps Upwork transition from an office-based to remote-first workforce. [24:12] Engagement is often relationship based, differing between employee and freelance contributors. [25:00] Emotional connection isn't always needed; the mission can generate engagement. [26:43] JJ finds that many workers thrive as project contributors without deep social integration. [28:08] More varied distributed operational models are needed, especially for larger companies. [30:36] Distributed work effectiveness requires more than dedicated time for human connection.   [31:25] Clearly documenting and consistently applying standard operating procedures and behaviors is crucial. [32:05] Standardizing—behaviors, tools, expectations—was a major Upwork project JJ worked on. [32:47] Accessible knowledge and intentional transparency are essential and must be intentional. [34:58] The Forest Ranger book gives JJ great insights about distributed operations.   [36:19] The ‘manual' shows how philosophy, behavioral standards, transparency and documentation empower independent workers.   [37:24] To train distributed workers, companies must clarify expectations—behaviors, work, standards. [39:15] Hybrid work requires embracing a digital-first mindset even when working partially in-office. [40:54] IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: To become digital first, one, understand time—such as core hours, two, communicate digitally—with documented processes, and three, systematize collaboration—designating how and where work is done. [41:57] Communication processes must be modeled by leadership and enforced by managers. [42:26] Systematized collaboration tools create visibility, drive cohesion, and replace physical context.     RESOURCES   “JJ” Jessica Reeder on Linkedin JJ's website The Forest Ranger book       QUOTES   “This decentralization of management. Instead of someone managing your work, there's somebody who is directing your output or directing your outcome. So understanding how to empower people to self-manage their work.”   “Collaboration is really just about trading work back and forth and doing it in a very effective way.”   “To be effective at our work, we need to have a source of motivation. We need to have proof that our work is doing something that we believe in. We do need to have some sort of a mission that we're contributing to, but we don't need to necessarily be deeply emotionally engaged.”    “Having standard operating procedures and behavioral standards is clearly documented and consistently applied throughout the organization is crucial in remote work. It is absolutely a deal breaker if you don't have people understanding how they are supposed to work.”   “One of those things where you have to decide - how transparent of an organization do we want to be. If we don't buy in on transparency, then we're going to have challenges with distributed work.”   “Becoming a digital first organization doesn't block your ability to have a functioning hybrid organization. In fact, it enhances it. It really will make your hybrid organization more powerful. It will help people to get the most out of work, whether they're in the office or not.”   “All of the things that you need to have a highly functioning team can be empowered by really embracing the digital first mentality.”   “Collaboration needs to be systematized. It needs to happen on as few disparate tools as possible.”

We all have “favorite places”, and for this week's guest, it is the island of Nantucket.  Julie Gerstenblatt has been spending her summers there since she was just a child. Accessible by air or by ferry, Nantucket is located 30 miles off the coast of Cape Cod.  Steeped in history, Nantucket was once the whaling capital of the world, and even today, it seems frozen in time. Rooted in the story of the Great Fire of 1846,  Julie's historical novel required years of research.  Focused on three complex, strong, and determined female characters, Daughters of Nantucket explores the lonely lives of whaling wives, the secrecy of sexuality, and race relations on an island influenced by Quaker values.   A lifelong writer and the proud mother of two grown children, Julie holds a doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction from Teachers College, Columbia University. In this interview, she shares the struggles writers often experience.  Says Julie:  “You write in silence and in secrecy, but you have to share it at some point with people, and you hope it does well, but there is so much rejection.” Always inspired to write books that teach AND entertain, Julie has another historical novel scheduled for release in 2026.  She's also ready to share her wisdom about what success really means.  “Success is balance and fulfillment on a deeper level.  It's not about the material things and the “having,” it's about being content in the “being.”   Ready for a little inspiration?  Go ahead and hit that download button.  #nantucket #writer #historicalnovel

San Fruttuoso Abbey is nestled in a cove off Italy’s northwest coast. Accessible only by boat or foot, it’s a secluded gem. But even more treasure hides in its bay. As divers venture into the sea and descend fifty feet down, the figure of a man starts coming into view. This is Christ of the Abyss, the world’s first underwater statue, placed in 1954. The bronze figure depicts Jesus in the depths, His hands raised to heaven. The depths. Maybe you’ve experienced them. “I sink in the miry depths,” Psalm 69 says, “I am worn out calling for help” (vv. 2–3). Mocked by his foes and estranged from his family (vv. 4, 7–12), the psalmist found no comfort in others (v. 20) and feared his misery would “swallow” him up (v. 15). Whether it’s sin or sadness that takes us there, the depths are life’s moments of dark despair. Thankfully, this isn’t the last word on the depths. For while they’re cold and lonely, there is One who can be found in them (139:8). And He will rescue us from their chill waters. “I will exalt you, Lord, for you lifted me out of the depths” (30:1). As that sculpture reminds us, when we’re sinking under the world’s weight, we’re not alone. Jesus by the Spirit is there in the depths, His hands raised high—ready to meet us and lift us out in time.
