This episode features Dr. Jocelyn Johnson with STgenetics, a speaker at the 2025 ADSA Breeding and Genetics Symposium: Creating Carbon-Friendly Cows and Leveraging Omics to Improve the Sustainability of Dairy Production.Dr. Johnson's presentation was titled “Advancing dairy sustainability through feed-efficient genetics and genomics: Research insights and applications.” She gives an overview of her talk, which focused on data STgenetics has collected and how the company has applied that data to help their customers be more sustainable. She goes on to describe some of the residual feed intake research they've conducted in dairy cows. (4:20)STgenetics has invested in feed efficiency technology and has shown that selection for improved feed efficiency is correlated to a lower carbon footprint. Dr. Johnson talks about the heritability of feed efficiency compared to other traits we select for in the dairy industry. (8:16)Dr. Pralle asks Dr. Johnson if STgenetics is measuring emissions from cows in their research. The company has partnered with Texas A&M to measure methane emissions in heifers divergently selected for feed efficiency. They found that more efficient animals produced less methane. Since that pilot project, STgenetics has purchased equipment to measure emissions at their own research facilities and has collected 2-3 years of data on beef, beef on dairy, and Holstein populations. Dr. Johnson emphasizes that the relationship between methane emissions and high milk production is somewhat of a balancing act. (11:29)The group discusses feed additives purported to decrease methane emissions and the differences in rumen microbiomes between high and low efficiency animals. They also talk about how best to get information and technology in front of producers. (17:59)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

Seven Ways to Know You're in the Will of God • Sunday Service Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Seven Ways to Know You're in the Will of God (And How You Know When You're Not) Let me tell you something up front: The will of God is not a mystery! Religion paints this picture like God is hiding His will from you, and you've got to stumble around in the dark hoping you trip into it. No! God's will is clear, God's will is knowable, and God's will brings you into blessing and kingdom advancement. If you're not in the will of God, you're wasting time, spinning your wheels, and giving the devil a foothold in your life. But when you're in His will, you don't just survive—you multiply, you advance, and you shake the nations for Christ. 1. Peace in Your Spirit Scripture: “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.” — Colossians 3:15 (NKJV) 2. Confirmation by the Word of God Scripture: “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105 (NKJV) 3. Fruitfulness and Multiplication Scripture: “You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?” — Matthew 7:16 (NKJV) 4. Open Doors by God's Hand Scripture: “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.” — Revelation 3:8 (NKJV) 5. The Witness of the Holy Spirit Scripture: “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.” — Romans 8:16 (NKJV) 6. Provision in the Assignment Scripture: “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 4:19 (NKJV) 7. Advancing the Kingdom of God Scripture: “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” — Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) How You Know You're NOT in the Will of God Let me hit this quickly and clearly. The Bible shows us markers of being outside His will: 1. Confusion and unrest. “For God is not the author of confusion but of peace.” — 1 Corinthians 14:33 (NKJV) 2. Compromise against Scripture. “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you… let him be accursed.” — Galatians 1:8 (NKJV) 3. Lack of fruit. “If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered.” — John 15:6 (NKJV) 4. Constant striving with no breakthrough. “To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.” — Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV) 5. Ignoring conviction. “And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.” — Ephesians 4:30 (NKJV) 6. Living in lack. “You have sown much, and bring in little… he who earns wages, earns wages to put into a bag with holes.” — Haggai 1:6 (NKJV) 7. Self-glory instead of God's glory. “I am the Lord, that is My name; and My glory I will not give to another.” — Isaiah 42:8 (NKJV) Conclusion Friend, the will of God is not something you have to stumble into—it's something you step into by faith and obedience. When you're in His will, peace rules your heart, doors open, fruit multiplies, provision flows, and the Kingdom advances. When you're out of it, confusion reigns, doors slam shut, provision dries up, and your life feels like pushing a boulder uphill. Make up your mind tonight: I will live in the center of God's will. I will not be distracted. I will not compromise. I will not settle. Because when you're in His will—you're unstoppable.

In this update, Bob Archer, CEO of Pinnacle Silver & Gold (TSX-V:PINN | OTCQB:PSGCF), outlines the roadmap for the company's first-ever drill program at the El Potrero project in Mexico. Following extensive sampling that averaged 8.5 g/t AuEq, the company is now moving into site preparation. This initial campaign is unique, as it focuses on delineation drilling - defining the size and shape of known high-grade shoots from within existing mine workings rather than speculative exploration. Exploration & Development Roadmap Underground Preparation: January is dedicated to enlarging drill stations and site safety (scaling/bolting). The Drill Program: A 112-hole campaign (2,600m) consisting of short, 20–25m holes designed to define grade distribution and vein thickness every 12.5 meters. Surface Targets: Following the underground work, drilling will move to surface to test the 500m gap between historic mines and additional veins like El Capulin. Fully Funded: The company is currently closing a C$2.52M financing to cover both the underground and surface programs through 2026.

Trent Mell, President, CEO, and Founder of Electra Battery Materials Corporation (NASDAQ: ELBM) (TSX-V: ELBM), joins me for a comprehensive overview the value proposition for the Company, as a leader in advancing North America's critical minerals supply chain for lithium-ion batteries and for the defense industry. Electra's primary focus is constructing North America's only hydrometallurgical facility capable of refining cobalt sulfate, and it has an operating history of previously producing cobalt carbonate and nickel carbonate. This is part of a phased strategy to onshore critical minerals refining and reduce reliance on foreign supply chains. Electra's cobalt sulfate refinery is located in Ontario, Canada, near some of the largest auto manufacturing centers in North America. Electra is also advancing black mass recycling opportunities to recover critical materials from end-of-life batteries, while continuing to evaluate growth opportunities in nickel refining and other downstream battery materials like lithium and graphite. Trent reviewed their strategic government-backed infrastructure with support from U.S. Department of War, the Government of Canada, and the Invest Ontario program. The Company has in place 2 key feedstock contracts with Glencore and Eurasian Resources Group (ERG), as well as commercial offtake agreements with LG Energy Solution and off-book government and manufacturing organizations. In addition to the main opportunity and contracts in place to feed the refinery, Electra holds a significant land package in Idaho's Cobalt Belt, including its Iron Creek project and surrounding properties, positioning the Company as a potential cornerstone for North American cobalt and copper production. The potential exists to add future Idaho feedstock to supplement the Ontario refining, to add in the processing of nickel sulfate, in addition to the battery recycling expansion opportunity. If you have any further questions for Trent regarding Electra Battery Materials Corp, then please email them into me at Shad@kereport.com.

Kris V. Kowdley, MD - Advancing the Management of Cholestatic Liver Disease: Optimizing Treatment Pathways and Novel Therapies
In this episode of Parenting Is a Joke, comedian Emily Walsh talks to Ophira Eisenberg about becoming a parent later in life and being labeled “advanced maternal age” by New York doctors while taking “nightly little baby aspirin” she was told “sometimes works” for reasons no one could explain. She describes meeting her tiny five-pound newborn who arrived a month early with “newborn fuzz” on her ears and back and a full head of hair that proved her pregnancy heartburn was accurate karma for marrying a very “hairy man.” Parenting for the first time at 40 means learning everything on the fly — sometimes quoting TikToks as if they were books — while hoarding three different “booger-sucking robots,” including a hospital-grade model she gleefully uses every morning. She shares postpartum rage (“Don't kill your husband” turned out to be wise advice), frustration with breastfeeding (“barbaric,” she says), and the absurdity of pumping in Times Square between comedy sets because the manager can't comprehend her need to schedule pumping. A broken ankle took away her baby-calming outdoor walks, she hasn't made a “mom friend” yet, and her social circle is still figuring out she's “not dead,” even as she continues podcasting, stand-up, and raising a baby who dressed as Jeff Goldblum from Jurassic Park with her bassinet converted into the Jeep and her husband in an inflatable T-Rex suit.
In this episode recorded live from the 2025 Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, hosts Lauren Bedula and Hondo Geurts sit down with the Honorable Michael "Mike" Dodd, Assistant Secretary of War for Critical Technologies and Acting Deputy Director of the Defense Innovation Unit. Secretary Dodd shares his remarkable journey from enlisted Marine amtracker to Mustang infantry officer, through over 25 years advising defense and finance companies, and back to the Pentagon to serve America's warfighters. The conversation explores the newly announced six critical technology areas, how entrepreneurs and innovators can engage with the Department of War, and Secretary Dodd's mission to deliver "an unfair fight" for U.S. service members through technological superiority and asymmetric advantages.Five Key Takeaways:The DoW has narrowed its focus from 14 to six critical technology areas: recognizing that "if everything's critical, nothing is," the department is concentrating resources on areas where the U.S. needs to achieve parity with near-peer competitors or maintain technological supremacy to deter major conflict through asymmetric advantages.The Pentagon is actively creating a "front door" for innovators: Secretary Dodd suggests we engage technologists where they are, encouraging entrepreneurs to present capabilities directly and get to a "no" quickly.Do your homework before engaging DoW: Successful companies come prepared knowing their potential transition partners, understanding the competitive landscape, and having thought through financial capacity and teaming opportunities to scale if they win contracts.You don't need to wear a uniform to serve your country: Secretary Dodd emphasizes that founders and funders bringing technology aligned with national security needs are serving their country in critical ways, whether as entrepreneurs or investors.The Department is prioritizing transition and operational alignment: Success isn't just about fast acquisition; it requires alignment with the combatant commands and service chiefs to ensure warfighters can actually absorb and employ new capabilities at scale for maximum impact downrange.

“What does it actually mean to understand the brain?”Dr. Kendrick Kay is a computational neuroscientist and neuroimaging expert at the University of Minnesota's Center for Magnetic Resonance Research, where he is an Associate Professor in the Department of Radiology. With training spanning philosophy and neuroscience, from a bachelor's degree in philosophy at Harvard University to a PhD in neuroscience from UC Berkeley, Dr. Kay's work bridges deep theoretical questions with cutting-edge neuroimaging methods.In this conversation, Peter Bandettini and Kendrick Kay explore the evolving landscape of neuroscience at the intersection of fMRI, philosophy, and artificial intelligence. They reflect on the limits of current neuroimaging methodologies, what fMRI can and cannot tell us about brain mechanisms, and why creativity and human judgment remain central to scientific progress. The discussion also dives into Dr. Kay's landmark contributions to fMRI decoding and the Natural Scenes Dataset, a high-resolution resource that has become foundational for computational neuroscience and neuro AI research.Along the way, they examine deep sampling in neuroimaging, individual variability in brain data, and the challenges of separating neural signals from hemodynamic effects. Framed by broader questions about understanding benchmarking progress, and the growing role of LLM's in neuroscience, this wide-ranging conversation offers a thoughtful look at where the field has been and where it may be headed.We hope you enjoy this episode!Chapters:00:00 - Introduction to Kendrick Kay and His Work04:51 - Philosophy's Influence on Neuroscience17:17 - How Far Will fMRI Take Us?23:27 - Understanding Attention in Neuroscience30:00 - Science as a Process34:17 - The Role of Large Language Models (LLMs) in Scientific Progress38:29 - Why Humans Should Stay in the Equation40:30 - Creativity vs. AI in Scientific Research54:48 - Dr. Kay's Natural Scenes Dataset (NSD)01:00:27 - Deep Sampling: Considerations and Implications01:08:00 - Accounting for biological variation in Brain Scans: Differences and Similarities01:13:00 - Separating Hemodynamic Effects from Neural Effects01:16:00 - Areas of Hope and Progress in the field01:21:00 - How Should We Benchmark Progress?01:22:59 - Advice for Aspiring ScientistsWorks mentioned:54:48 - https://www.nature.com/articles/s41593-021-00962-x54:50 - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166223624001838?via%3DihubEpisode producers:Xuqian Michelle Li, Naga Thovinakere
This headline somehow feels both shocking and completely unsurprising.The McKinsey and Lean In Women in the Workplace study is out, and the takeaway is bleak. Fewer companies care about advancing women. Even fewer care about advancing women of color. And somehow, we are now talking about an “ambition gap” like women just collectively woke up and decided to want less.Let's be clear. Women are still paid less. Still underrepresented in the rooms that matter. Still doing most of the work at home. Still being asked to show up like nothing else changed after Covid, after MeToo, after the great return to office squeeze.On this episode of Net Net, we talk about why this moment at work feels so brittle. Why job security feels fake. Why trust in the promise of work is eroding. And why more women are quietly asking themselves what all this effort is actually for.This is not about one group winning and another losing. That zero-sum framing is part of the problem. The real work is opening the aperture. More voices. More paths. More people being given a real shot, and actually being supported when they take it.If you work with people, lead people, or care about what work is turning into right now, this one is worth your time.This is WORK Net/Net.

Interview with Alan Carter, President & CEO of Cabral Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cabral-gold-tsxvcbr-pitch-perfect-november-2025-8486Recording date: 10th December 2025Cabral Gold Inc. (TSXV:CBR) has secured $45 million US in gold loan financing to construct its first mine at the Cuiú Cuiú project in northern Brazil, with commercial production targeted for Q4 2026. The financing structure avoids equity dilution during the critical construction phase, preserving shareholder value whilst enabling the company's transition from explorer to cash-generating producer.Construction activities have accelerated substantially with 143 personnel on site, 50 pieces of heavy equipment operational, and major foundation concrete pours scheduled by year-end. President and CEO Alan Carter confirmed: "We recently raised $45 million US through a gold loan. Projects in construction. We should be producing gold in the fourth quarter of 2026," noting "there was no equity raise as part of that, which I think surprised a lot of people."The project benefits from unusually deep oxide weathering averaging 60 metres – a geological characteristic Carter describes as "quite unusual from most gold deposits around the world." This creates substantial free-digging material processable through simple metallurgical circuits without conventional crushing and grinding infrastructure, enabling low-capital initial operations.Cabral's strategic differentiation centres on its two-stage development approach designed to eliminate serial equity dilution. The initial 1,500 tonnes per day oxide operation generates internal cash flow to fund aggressive exploration of much larger hard rock resources beneath the weathered zone, transforming the company from market-dependent explorer into self-funding entity. Carter articulated the rationale: "We think that the best way to fund all that work that needs to be done is not by continually diluting the capital structure and doing private placement after private placement and ending up with a massive number of shares issued and outstanding."Unlike typical developers focused solely on construction execution, Cabral maintains three drill rigs and 80 exploration personnel operating concurrently with mine building. Recent drone magnetic surveys confirmed clear structural continuity over 2 kilometres between the Central deposit and PDM discovery, with reconnaissance drilling validating gold intersections along the newly identified trend. Carter characterised this as "tremendously exciting," substantially expanding prospective ground between known deposits.Management describes Cuiú Cuiú as a district-scale gold system with four new discoveries since the 2022 resource estimate and 50 additional peripheral targets with identified gold. Carter positioned the oxide operation within this broader context: "The bigger prize at Cuiú Cuiú is the definition of this very, very large gold district that clearly contains multiple deposits."The permitting pathway utilises Brazilian trial mining licences for initial operations with full mining licence approval for 3,000 tonnes per day expansion anticipated January 2026. Recent public consultations demonstrated no community opposition, de-risking regulatory progression. The full permit isn't operationally required until mid-2027, providing comfortable scheduling buffer.Project execution benefits from experienced Brazilian mining personnel including Luis Salaro, who has built multiple coal mines in Brazil, alongside Ausenco engineering support and what Carter describes as "a very impressive group of consultants."Cabral's investment proposition combines near-term production catalyst, non-dilutive financing preserving equity value, and district-scale exploration potential funded through internal cash generation. The parallel execution of construction and exploration positions the company to enter production with an expanded resource base rather than simply a built mine processing fixed inventory, creating multiple value drivers as Cabral transitions from explorer to cash-generating producer with growth optionality in a strong gold price environment.View Cabral Gold's company profile:https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cabral-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this podcast, we spoke with Troy Ostreng, Senior Product Manager and David Burdge, Director of Cell and Gene Therapy at CPC about the development of the MicroCNX® aseptic micro-connectors and how they're helping biopharma teams streamline closed-system operations for cell and gene therapies. What unfolded was a detailed and forward-looking conversation that touched on CPC's 47-year legacy, the technical demands of advanced therapies, and the company's plans to drive the future of automation and sterility in manufacturing. A Legacy That Positioned CPC for Today's Advanced Therapy Boom When asked how CPC's long history in biologics and hospital environments prepared the company for today's cell and gene therapy landscape, David took us back to CPC's roots. “CPC was founded in 1978, so that's 47 years of innovation within connection technologies,” he said. “The first biologic was released in 1982, synthetic insulin, and we were there supporting the industry with open-format connectors on single-use bags.” From the early development of biologics through the shift to single-use and the rise of stainless-steel/single-use hybrid systems, CPC continuously evolved its connection technologies. They launched steam-through connectors as bioprocessing grew more complex, released their first aseptic connector in 2009, and introduced their first connector specifically targeted for the cell and gene therapy market in 2017. David explained how that history matters today: “Biologics has about a 35-year head start on advanced therapies. So the question becomes, what lessons can we transfer from biologics to cell and gene therapy as that industry grows at three to four times the rate biologics did in its first decade?” That perspective, combining biological manufacturing experience with the needs of new therapy modalities, forms the foundation for CPC's MicroCNX platform. MicroCNX: The First Aseptic Connector Built for Small-Format Tubing As cell and gene therapy developers began scaling up manufacturing, they quickly discovered a problem: the connectors used for biologics were not designed for small-volume, patient-specific therapies. Troy described it plainly: “Several years ago, we started hearing rumblings that current connectors weren't meeting what cell and gene therapy required.” CPC responded with a deep Voice of Customer (VOC) initiative, interviewing process engineers, operators, manufacturing leaders, and platform developers. Over and over, the same needs emerged. Operators wanted something simple. “Ease of use was the number one requirement,” Troy said. “Operators needed a product that was easy to use so they could make sterile connections in a short amount of time.” Processes demanded robustness. “Customers needed a connection they could trust—no contamination, no failures, no weak spots in the connection process,” he added. Small-volume precise applications required connectors actually designed for them. With autologous therapies, he noted, “We aren't talking about 1,000 liters; we're talking about 250 milliliters. And if there's a mishap, that could mean the difference between life and death for a patient.” All of this laid the groundwork for MicroCNX, which became the first aseptic connector engineered for small-format tubing. The “Pinch-Click-Pull” Process: Sterility Meets Speed One of the standout features of MicroCNX is its elegantly simple pinch-click-pull operation. Troy explained how simplicity came directly from user feedback. “As operators walked us through their pain points, what they needed was clear: a connector they could learn immediately. So MicroCNX has a three-step process—pinch, click, pull. You can literally do it as fast as I say it.” He continued,“Once someone does it one time, they're basically an expert. That ease of use dramatically reduces operator error.” For an industry where operator variability remains one of the biggest sources of risk and batch loss, eliminating complexity is critical. Cryogenic Challenges Call for Cryo-Rated Solutions As the conversation shifted to cryopreservation, a critical component of cell therapy manufacturing,Troy introduced the MicroCNX® ULT and MicroCNX® Nano variants. “These were really developed because therapies were being frozen to –150°C, even –190°C. You need a connector that can be frozen to those temperatures, thawed, and still be as robust as it was before.” The ULT and Nano were engineered with: Low-profile geometries to fit inside freezing cassettes Specialized materials to withstand thermal stress Chemical compatibility with DMSO and other cryoprotectants Enhanced durability to survive impacts while frozen Troy emphasized how critical it was to get the materials right: “We searched extensively for a material that could handle those harsh chemicals and temperatures. What we landed on was PPSU—polyphenylsulfone. It's chemically sound, and it's incredibly impact-resistant at very low temperatures.” CPC built these connectors because customers repeatedly told them: existing solutions were cracking, leaking, or becoming brittle. MicroCNX was engineered to overcome all of that. True Closed Systems vs. Functionally Closed Systems: Why the Difference Matters A substantial part of the conversation focused on the differences between closed, functionally closed, and open systems—distinctions that are often overlooked but critically important. Troy broke down the differences clearly: “An open system is exposed at some point. A functionally closed system is inherently open but gets closed temporarily to let fluid transfer. In comparison, a closed system is never open at any point.” Examples of functionally closed systems include: Biosafety cabinets (BSCs) Luer-based connections Closed system transfer devices These approaches require: Sanitization Careful environmental controls Operator expertise And, as Troy noted, “a mishap in one of these can mean losing a very valuable therapy.” CPC's sterile connectors—including MicroCNX minimize these risks: “Our connectors allow the system to remain closed 100% of the time. That greatly reduces contamination risk.” This distinction isn't merely academic—it has direct regulatory implications as well. David added,“In Annex 1, they refer to intrinsically sterile connection devices—like sterile connectors and tube welders—that allow operations normally requiring Grade A or B to occur in a Grade C or D environment.” That ability to operate safely in lower-grade spaces is increasingly critical as the industry tries to overcome facility and labor bottlenecks. Why Teams Are Moving Away from Tube Welding Tube welding has been part of bioprocessing for decades, but David explained why its era may be ending for CGT. “Tube welding was born out of the blood banking industry when no other solution existed. But sterile connectors don't require capital investment. They're faster. They eliminate issues like tubing alignment or pinhole leaks. They're simply more reliable.” As biologics manufacturers have already done, CGT teams are now transitioning toward connectors like MicroCNX® that provide sterile, consistent, low-burden operations. The MicroCNX® Luer Variant: Supporting Transitional Workflows Not all workflows are ready to move away from luer-based devices. That's where the MicroCNX Luer variant fits in. Troy described how it works.“You connect a syringe or bag with a luer inside the BSC, but then because the MicroCNX® connector itself is sterile, you can take it outside the hood and make a sterile connection elsewhere.” This capability bridges legacy workflows and fully closed systems—critical during process development, technology transfer, or when working with specific devices. Co-Development: The Heart of CPC's Innovation Process As the conversation returned to CPC's broader philosophy, David highlighted how important customer collaboration is. “It's all about the customer for CPC,” he said. “We start with Voice of Customer. Our business and applications managers are out in the field understanding real applications and guiding them to the right products.” This feedback fuels CPC's two major development tracks: Catalog product development (platforms like MicroCNX) Custom-engineered solutions for unique applications David added: “We maintain a full new product introduction roadmap. Some products will be released broadly. Others will be developed specifically for one customer. But both are driven by real application requirements.” This process ensures CPC's products evolve in lockstep with the needs of advanced therapy teams. Looking Ahead: Designing Connectors for Robotics and Automation Toward the end of the conversation, David turned to one of CPC's biggest focus areas: the future of automation. “The ultimate customer in this industry is the patient,” he said. “And right now we face barriers—capacity, speed, accessibility, cost. Process automation can significantly reduce those barriers.” Automation requires connectors designed not just for human hands but for robotics: Predictable geometries Features optimized for machine vision Forces and actuation steps compatible with robotic grippers Designs intended for automated loading and unloading David summarized CPC's future direction: “We're taking a fresh look at our connectors, reimagining them as something designed for robotic manipulation. It's a high priority for us.” Troy echoed the sentiment: “Our connectors are awesomely designed for humans. But automation is coming, and we're focused on the features robots need.” A Future Built on Innovation and Patient Impact The interview closed with both guests reflecting on CPC's mission. “We're incredibly passionate about innovation and meeting the needs of our customers through thoughtful product development,” Troy said.
