What happens at one of the world's largest rheumatology conferences, and why should patients care? In this special episode of The Health Advocates, Steven Newmark is joined by Dr. Shilpa Venkatachalam, Director of Patient-Centered Research at the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF), to discuss the biggest takeaways from EULAR 2026, the annual congress of the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology. The conversation explores why conferences like EULAR are so important for advancing patient care, how researchers, physicians, and patient advocates work together to shape the future of rheumatology, and why the patient voice has become an essential part of medical research. Steven and Shilpa also highlight GHLF's contributions to this year's conference, including two original research posters examining barriers to the early recognition of hidradenitis suppurativa and the unmet informational and support needs of people living with Sjögren's disease. Along the way, they discuss exciting emerging trends in rheumatology and clinical care, especially the increasing emphasis on patient-reported outcomes. Whether you're living with a rheumatic disease, caring for someone who is, or simply interested in the future of healthcare, this episode offers an inside look at how today's research is helping shape tomorrow's treatments—and why patient perspectives are more important than ever.

In this episode of JUST Branding, we're joined by Ulli Appelbaum, globally respected brand strategist, founder of First The Trousers, and author of The Science of Brand Associations. Ulli has spent years helping organisations understand how brands grow by shaping the associations people hold in memory. In this conversation, we unpack one of the most important and often misunderstood areas of branding: how associations are formed, strengthened, measured, and used to drive real business growth. We explore why some brands own clear memory structures while others remain vague, how emotion and storytelling help build associations, and what marketers often get wrong about consistency, distinctiveness, and meaning. If you want to build a brand that is easier to notice, easier to remember, and easier to choose, this episode will give you a practical look at the science behind brand growth.

The same glucosamine pill millions take for joint pain may protect a healthy brain — and accelerate Alzheimer's in a brain already in decline. Here's the science.In this episode of Health Longevity Secrets, Robert Lufkin MD breaks down the 2026 plot twist on glucosamine and dementia: why a supplement once hailed as a longevity hack now carries an Alzheimer's warning, and why the answer comes down to one thing — the state of your metabolism. The same molecule helped the metabolically healthy and may have harmed the metabolically broken. The supplement didn't change; the soil it landed on did.Chapters:00:00 — Introduction00:39 — The Supplement Everyone Trusted01:06 — UK Biobank: Glucosamine and 15% Lower Death Risk01:38 — Why Glucosamine Looked Like a Longevity Hack02:48 — The 2026 Plot Twist: Nature Metabolism Study03:53 — Alzheimer's Mice and the Glucosamine Pathway04:13 — How Sugar Tagging (Glycosylation) Explains Both04:57 — Hyperglycosylation in the Alzheimer's Brain05:34 — The Honest Caveat: Association vs Causation06:55 — The Takeaway: Metabolic Health Decides EverythingKey takeaways:In healthy, cognitively normal adults, regular glucosamine use has been tied to lower all-cause mortality and lower risk of dementia — especially vascular dementia.A June 2026 University of Florida study in Nature Metabolism found the opposite signal in sick brains: in people with mild cognitive impairment, glucosamine use was associated with a 25% higher likelihood of progressing to Alzheimer's, and a 25% higher death risk in those already diagnosed.In Alzheimer's mice, glucosamine made memory worse; blocking the same sugar-tagging pathway made it better.The mechanism is metabolic: glucosamine feeds glycosylation (sugar-tagging of proteins). A healthy brain handles it fine; an Alzheimer's brain is already hyperglycosylated, so adding more is "pouring gasoline on the fire."This is association, not proof of cause — and the literature is genuinely mixed. If you're healthy, it's not a fire alarm. If you or a loved one has MCI or dementia, talk to your physician before the next refill.Studies & sources:Hawkinson et al., "Hyperglycosylation is a metabolic driver of Alzheimer's disease," Nature Metabolism 2026 (University of Florida)University of Florida news release on the glucosamine–dementia findingZheng et al., "Association of regular glucosamine use with incident dementia," BMC Medicine 2023 (UK Biobank)Habitual glucosamine use, APOE genotypes, and cause-specific dementia in older adults (UK Biobank)Li et al., "Associations of regular glucosamine use with all-cause and cause-specific mortality," Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases 2020 (UK Biobank)Read Dr. Lufkin's book "Lies I Taught in Medical School".⭐ Enjoying the show?

La 12e édition de l'opération 100 minutes pour changer le monde est officiellement lancée.Le principe est simple : offrir aux associations, collectifs citoyens et initiatives porteuses de sens une visibilité exceptionnelle sur les antennes de Nostalgie, Nostalgie+, NRJ, NRJ+ et Chérie. Les projets sélectionnés bénéficient de 100 minutes d'espace publicitaire pour faire connaître leurs actions et sensibiliser le grand public à leurs causes.L'année dernière, quinze associations ont été distinguées par un jury. Parmi elles, l'asbl Étincelle, active dans le domaine de la santé mentale. Son objectif : accompagner les enfants, adolescents et jeunes adultes qui vivent au quotidien avec un proche en souffrance psychique. Une réalité souvent méconnue, mais qui peut avoir un impact considérable sur l'équilibre des jeunes aidants.Dans le registre de la solidarité, l'association PMR Récup a également marqué les esprits. Son action repose sur un principe simple mais efficace : récupérer du matériel médical inutilisé pour lui offrir une seconde vie. Fauteuils roulants, lits médicalisés ou équipements adaptés sont ensuite proposés à prix solidaire à des personnes en situation de handicap ou à mobilité réduite. Une démarche qui combine à la fois économie circulaire, accessibilité aux soins et inclusion.Autre initiative inspirante : Quand on danse.

What if one of the most important health crises affecting men today wasn't being caused by aging, but by the environment we live in? In this eye-opening solo episode, Darin Olien investigates the alarming decline in testosterone levels, fertility, and reproductive health among men worldwide. Drawing on decades of research, epidemiological studies, environmental science, endocrinology, and public health data, Darin examines the growing evidence connecting endocrine-disrupting chemicals, microplastics, sleep deprivation, chronic stress, poor lifestyle habits, and environmental toxins to declining testosterone levels across generations. From BPA, phthalates, atrazine, PFAS, and microplastics to sleep quality, circadian rhythms, cholesterol metabolism, cortisol regulation, and natural testosterone-supporting strategies, this episode explores what may be one of the most underreported public health issues of our time—and what men can do to take control of their health today.     What You'll Learn Why testosterone levels have been declining for decades The startling research on global sperm count decline How endocrine-disrupting chemicals interfere with hormone production Why BPA and phthalates may disrupt testosterone synthesis The role of atrazine, PFAS, and environmental toxins How chronic stress diverts resources away from testosterone production Why sleep may be the most important testosterone intervention The connection between cholesterol and hormone production How microplastics are being found throughout the human body The surprising relationship between statins and testosterone levels Natural lifestyle strategies that support healthy hormone production Practical steps to reduce environmental exposure and improve health     Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Fatty15 and cellular health 00:04:17 – The testosterone collapse explained 00:04:51 – Testosterone levels have been declining for decades 00:06:03 – Global sperm count decline and accelerating trends 00:07:02 – Why treating symptoms misses the root cause 00:07:27 – The hidden public health crisis 00:08:03 – Why low testosterone isn't just about aging 00:09:12 – Why hormone health affects longevity 00:09:53 – Low testosterone and increased mortality risk 00:10:35 – Testosterone's role in metabolism and cardiovascular health 00:11:27 – Endocrine-disrupting chemicals and hormone disruption 00:12:44 – BPA and its effects on testosterone production 00:13:59 – Phthalates and their impact on hormone pathways 00:16:00 – Glyphosate, atrazine, and pesticide exposure 00:17:07 – PFAS and reproductive health concerns 00:17:55 – Environmental toxins and population-wide effects 00:18:11 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:20:02 – Cholesterol and hormone production 00:20:53 – Chronic stress and cortisol dominance 00:21:45 – Actionable solutions begin 00:21:56 – Why sleep is essential for testosterone production 00:23:07 – How sleep deprivation rapidly lowers testosterone 00:23:21 – Light pollution and circadian disruption 00:23:41 – Foods and nutrients needed for hormone health 00:24:23 – Microplastics and testicular tissue 00:24:53 – Statins and unintended hormonal consequences 00:25:39 – A practical testosterone sovereignty protocol 00:25:48 – Water filtration and reducing toxic exposure 00:26:13 – Eliminating plastics and fragrance chemicals 00:26:35 – Why organic food matters 00:26:45 – Sunlight and vitamin D 00:27:05 – Magnesium, omega-3s, and iodine 00:27:26 – Pine pollen and natural androgen support 00:28:01 – Tongkat Ali and ashwagandha 00:28:48 – Strength training and lifestyle interventions 00:29:10 – Habits that naturally support testosterone 00:29:27 – Darin's approach to healthy aging 00:29:37 – Plants, herbs, and common sense 00:29:51 – Reclaiming your health and sovereignty 00:30:00 – Final thoughts and closing message     Thank You to Our Sponsors Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

It may be a reflection of the modern environment itself—one increasingly saturated with endocrine-disrupting chemicals, chronic stress, poor sleep, circadian disruption, and toxic exposures. While many of these forces feel outside our control, the encouraging reality is that many of the most powerful interventions remain accessible: improving sleep, reducing toxic load, eating whole foods, getting sunlight, managing stress, exercising regularly, and reclaiming responsibility for our health. The goal isn't fear. The goal is awareness—and action."     Bibliography/Sources: The Decline — Primary Research Levine, H., Jørgensen, N., Martino-Andrade, A., et al. (2022).

Les associations perdent leurs bénévoles réguliers. Ces piliers de l'engagement qui permettent de faire le lien entre les nouveaux bénévoles, les bénéficiaires et les administrations sont de moins en moins nombreux. Ils sont 500 000 de moins qu'il y a un an, selon l'étude France bénévole publiée en mai. Un recul qui s'explique en partie par une baisse des subventions des collectivités et du gouvernement aux associations. Au Secours populaire de Noisy-le-Sec aussi, l'effectif tend à manquer. Au centre Gérard-Philippe de Noisy-le-Sec, en région parisienne, six bénévoles attendent patiemment derrière des tables dressées en étals de vêtements. Aujourd'hui, c'est Martine qui prend en charge l'organisation de la collecte. Ça fait dix ans qu'elle s'investit au Secours populaire de Noisy-le-Sec. Cette dernière décennie, elle est devenue indispensable à l'association. Le Secours populaire de Noisy-le-Sec accompagne près de 200 familles par an. Un suivi régulier est donc indispensable : « C'est vrai qu'actuellement, nous sommes confrontés à un manque de bénévolat régulier. Chez nous, c'est très important parce que la première de nos missions, c'est l'accueil, la permanence d'accueil. C'est à partir de là qu'on apprend à accompagner les personnes, à leur proposer des sorties, à leur proposer toutes nos missions, toutes nos activités. C'est là où, effectivement, ces permanences, où on doit vraiment accompagner ces personnes, ça devient très difficile. C'est vrai qu'il y a dix ans l'engagement était beaucoup plus régulier : on s'engageait. » Depuis la pandémie de Covid-19, l'engagement bénévole a augmenté : on compte plus de jeunes et plus d'actifs. Ce qui signifie aussi moins de disponibilités. Marie-Jo, retraitée, a bien conscience du côté chronophage de son activité : « Il y a même des heures qu'on oublie de compter, quand on est à la maison et que l'on passe des coups de fil, quand on fait des démarches à l'extérieur et tout ça. Et ​​​​​​​puis après, on envoie des enfants en colonies de vacances, on fait les dossiers, on envoie des familles en vacances, faut faire les dossiers... » Des pratiques de bénévolat qui évoluent Pour Annick, hors de question de mettre autant de temps et d'énergie dans une activité annexe. La jeune retraitée compte bien profiter de ses hobbys et de sa famille : « On a réellement besoin de nous, mais c'est quand même du bénévolat. Moi, j'ai une vie de famille et, par exemple, le week-end, je bloque tout pour ma famille. J'ai besoin de faire du sport, de voir mes amis, de discuter avec eux, de manger avec eux. Voilà, ma retraite, c'est un petit peu ça. » Avant, c'était ces jeunes retraités qui servaient de piliers aux associations. Une autre forme de bénévolat ponctuel apparait aussi : celui que pratique Patricia. C'est la première fois qu'elle vient au Secours populaire : « ​​​​​​​Je fais déjà pas mal de bénévolat avec les centres aérés le mercredi après-midi avec les enfants, et là, c'est autre chose. Si j'ai la possibilité, je reviendrai. Si par exemple j'ai une autre occupation vis-à-vis de ce à quoi je suis engagée, là, je pourrai pas venir. » Ce bénévolat dit « post-it » – des gens qui s'engagent ponctuellement sur plusieurs causes – est de plus en plus courant. Ce manque de bénévoles réguliers n'est pas forcément une mauvaise nouvelle pour Vincent Pelletier, responsable des bénévoles chez les Petits Frères des pauvres. C'est juste la preuve que les profils de bénévoles évoluent, il faut juste s'y habituer : ​​​​​​​

Could you have metabolic dysfunction even at a normal weight?This episode challenges everything we've been taught about weight and health. Dr. Cooper reveals that up to 25% of normal-weight people have metabolic syndrome, yet they're rarely screened because doctors assume they're healthy based on appearance alone.KEY TAKEAWAYSWeight and metabolic health are not the same thing - you can be metabolically unhealthy at any sizeNormal weight people with metabolic dysfunction are often overlooked and undertreated by healthcare providersKey screening tests include fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, blood pressure, and inflammatory markers like HSCRPMetabolic dysfunction can start in your 20s and take decades to develop into serious diseaseBoth normal weight and higher weight patients face bias - normal weight people aren't screened enough, while higher weight people have everything blamed on their weightEarly screening and treatment can prevent catastrophic health outcomes later in lifeThe liver plays a crucial role in metabolism and can become insulin resistant regardless of body weightNOTABLE QUOTE"You cannot tell anything about someone's health from their outside, what they look like or what, even what they're doing necessarily, but definitely not their body size. So you can be healthy or unhealthy at any size body, and I think that's what's overlooked quite a bit." — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: fatsciencepodcast.comCooper Center for Metabolism: coopermetabolic.comResources from Dr. Cooper: coopermetabolic.com/resourcesJoin Our Community: patreon.com/cw/FatSciencePodcastSubmit Your Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comAppendix: Key ReferencesPrimary literature supporting this episode•       Wang et al.

Día Mundial de Toma de Conciencia del Abuso y Maltrato en la Vejez El Día Mundial de Toma de Conciencia del Abuso y Maltrato en la Vejez se celebra el 15 de junio de cada año, una fecha oficial de la ONU con el objetivo de concienciar y denunciar el maltrato, abuso y sufrimientos a los cuales son sometidos muchos ancianos y ancianas en distintas partes del mundo. La vejez está referida a la última etapa de vida de las personas denominada tercera edad, que se inicia a partir de los 65 años de edad. En la etapa del envejecimiento comienzan las transformaciones mentales y físicas progresivas, propias de la edad. Este proceso o última etapa de la vida es irreversible, culminando con la muerte o fallecimiento del individuo: Deterioro en la capacidad regenerativa de las células, generando un déficit de las mismas (apoptosis). Pérdida de neuronas y disminución del volumen cerebral. Cambios morfológicos y patológicos: disminución de estatura, disminución de agudeza visual, pérdida auditiva, cambios en la piel.

Sport should feel the same for everyone who loves it, and everyone should have the opportunity to play and excel. This week we sit down with Matt Cameron from VicHealth to unpack the Set The Standard campaign, a program built around exactly that idea, before hearing from Nya Lok, whose basketball journey offers a first hand perspective on why this work matters so much. Both Matt & Nya make a case for what greater understanding, acceptance and effort can look like on and off the court, and the role that coaches, Clubs & Associations can play.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Sidecar Sync, Amith and Mallory explore three major developments shaping the future of AI. First, they unpack how an OpenAI model independently solved a decades-old mathematical problem—challenging long-held assumptions and proving AI can generate truly novel insights. Then, they break down Microsoft Build 2026 and the shift toward an “agent-first” world, where AI systems take on real work across your organization. Finally, they dive into Anthropic's powerful new Claude Fable model, discussing its capabilities, real-world applications, and the growing tension between performance and transparency. Along the way, they connect these breakthroughs back to what matters most for associations: data strategy, flexibility, and staying ahead in a rapidly evolving AI landscape. 

L'extrême-droite ne se contente pas de lorgner sur les médias. Elle s'intéresse aussi beaucoup aux associations. Il y a trois ans, M Bernard Arnault avait ainsi offert 3 millions d'euros aux restos de cœur. Généreux, hein ? Surtout de la part d'un milliardaire qui a l'habitude des plans de suppression d'emploi dans les entreprises qu'il rachète. Mais si vous connaissez Bolloré, vous connaissez peut-être moins son homologue, Pierre-Édouard Stérin. Les largesses financières dont il fait bénéficier des associations, à travers le Fond du bien commun, est un projet politique. Une France blanche, où les femmes sont des ventres fertiles qui restent bien sagement à la maison, et rêvent à la rigueur d'aller s'encanailler au Puy-du-Fou. Bref, son projet est une France catholique et d'extrême-droite. Pourquoi Pierre-Édouard Stérin finance-t-il des associations pour servir son ambition politique ? Aujourd'hui, les associations s'occupent de bien des choses que le service public a délaissé : elles agissent dans le domaine de la santé, de l'éducation, de la famille, du soutien aux victimes de violence, du sport... bref, tout ce qui touche à nos vies quotidiennes, à nos intimités, à nos loisirs, à nos activités culturelles. C'est donc un puissant levier d'influence directement au contact de publics que le milliardaire veut toucher.Pierre-Édouard Stérin profite aussi d'une situation : le financement public aux associations se réduit comme peau de chagrin. Certaines structures ont donc cessé de se boucher le nez pour aller chercher l'argent du milliardaire d'extrême-droite, pensant que cela ne se saurait pas. Sauf que les enquêtes se multiplient, et soulèvent une question : doit-on s'inquiéter aujourd'hui d'une emprise de l'extrême-droite sur le secteur associatif ?  Invitées :Elsa Sabado, journaliste d'investigation indépendante, en 2023 déjà une enquête pour Alter Eco sur ces assos qui ne veulent pas devenir des entreprises comme les autresAnnabelle Martela, journaliste d'investigation indépendante, membre du collectif Hors cadre.Marianne Langlet, collectif des associations citoyennes, Coordinatrice de l'Observatoire citoyen de la marchandisation des associations, et anciennement journaliste.Hébergé par Ausha.

On this episode of The Association Podcast, Megan Paulini of Associations International, Senior Technical Solutions Specialist and recent AWTC Champion Award winner, shares how she accidentally entered the association world via a temp role and grew from member services into tech solutioning, QA, and deep NetForum work. She explains how an AMC's shared-services model supports multiple association clients across varied tech stacks and why clear definitions, overcommunication, and documentation prevent costly misunderstandings. Megan reflects on recognition through AWTC, her preference for puzzle-style projects, and practical ways she uses AI daily, including having it review requirements for gaps, interview her with follow-up questions, generate test cases, and build a project forecast spreadsheet to reduce QA bottlenecks. The conversation also touches on realistic personalization, data foundations, and balancing customization with guardrails. 00:43 Guest Intro 01:16 Rapid Fire Questions03:23 How Megan Found Associations04:32 From Member Services to Tech07:26 Inside the AMC Model10:06 Patterns Across Clients12:22 Translating Business to Tech15:56 AWTC Award Spotlight20:37 Favorite Projects and Puzzles21:53 Switching to Maybel Setup22:23 Daily AI Wheel Spin22:59 AI for Better Requirements24:27 AI as Interviewer25:51 Forecasting QA Bottlenecks27:10 Choosing AI Tools30:05 Data Personalization Reality32:52 Progressive Profiling Vision33:23 Career Path Marketing35:12 Role Evolution at AMC38:43 Guardrails Over Customization40:27 Office Rundown Analogy41:03 Closing Takeaways

In this episode of The Association Insights Podcast powered by OnWrd & UpWrd, host Colleen Gallagher sits down with Dr. Michael Carr-Tatonetti, CPP, CAE, Founder & CEO of Pricing for Associations, to explore one of the most powerful—and often misunderstood—tools available to association leaders: pricing.From membership dues and event registrations to sponsorships and education programs, pricing decisions influence far more than revenue. Michael shares why associations often underprice their value, overcomplicate their offerings, and allow fear of member backlash to hold them back from making strategic decisions.

In certain capacities, artificial intelligence is quite capable of doing quality legal work. It may enhance a lawyer's workflows, provide new opportunities for access to justice, assist in legal research—the possibilities seem innumerable. So, should we be fearful of its potential? Are we all out of a job? Amanda Arriaga and Patrick Palace welcome Ed Walters to talk through the ethics and opportunities lawyers must consider in the age of AI. Ed focuses on the important role bar associations should play in the lives of all attorneys and highlights the need for thoughtful leadership for AI use as we move into the future.

Send us Fan MailIn this jam-packed “mini” episode, Amith Nagarajan and Mallory Mejias break down a whirlwind of recent AI model releases—from Anthropic, Alibaba, Microsoft, and beyond—and what they signal about the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Then, they dive into Microsoft's 2026 Work Trend Index Report, unpacking the “agency equation” and what it really means for organizations navigating AI adoption. From the rise of agents and the four modes of working with AI to the growing gap between employee readiness and organizational culture, this episode explores why AI transformation is less about tools and more about leadership, systems, and mindset. Plus, they introduce the concept of “owned intelligence” and what it takes to become a true learning organization in the age of AI.

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MD, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, preview their unofficial countdown of the sessions, themes, and abstracts they are most excited about heading into the 2026 European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) Annual Meeting in London, June 3–6, including:  Obesity, Weight Management, and Psoriatic Arthritis Sessions Personalized Medicine and Biomarkers in RMDs Sessions Fatigue and Quality of Life in Connective Tissue Disease Session Mitochondrial DNA and Interferon: Upstream Drivers of Autoimmunity Session Artificial Intelligence and Pattern Recognition in Rheumatology Sessions Axial Imaging in Axial Spondyloarthritis Session Head-to-Head Superiority Trials in RA and PsA Sessions CAR-T and CAR-NK Therapies: Efficacy, Limits, and What Comes Next Sessions

Drs. McMahon and Kalunian discuss how the latest lupus nephritis guidelines from the American College of Rheumatology and European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology are shifting care from short-term, reactive treatment to longer-term, continuous maintenance—often 3 to 5 years or more—to better prevent kidney flares and preserve renal function. They highlight emerging data on biologic-based triple therapy (including belimumab); the importance of biomarkers and repeat biopsies; and the growing push toward personalized, sometimes indefinite, therapy for high‑risk patients.

Sickle cell disease causes accelerated kidney function decline, yet proven GFR-preserving therapies remain elusive. In this study of adults with sickle cell disease, RASi use was not associated with a significant difference in the rate of eGFR decline.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Sidecar Sync, Mallory Mejias welcomes Dr. Jessica Miles, founder of The Informed Frontier, former VP of Strategy and Investments at Holtzbrinck, and advisory board member for Johns Hopkins University Press, for a fascinating look at how AI is transforming publishing, research, and trusted content ecosystems. Jessica explains what happens when AI becomes a “reader” instead of just a writer or assistant, why associations and scientific societies may already be part of AI training pipelines, and how organizations should think about crawl-based access, bulk licensing, and runtime access as the emerging gold standard. The conversation also explores AI's impact on research integrity, peer review, content metrics, and the irreplaceable role of human accountability in an AI-driven knowledge ecosystem.

Ryan and Mike take on four of the loudest myths in Facebook ADHD parenting groups: pharmacogenetic ("cheek swab") testing for medication selection, the idea that every ADHD child needs one-to-one talk therapy, the "everything is sensory" framing, and rejection sensitive dysphoria as a discrete diagnosis.

This Day in Legal History: Truman DoctrineOn May 22, 1947, President Harry S. Truman signed legislation authorizing American aid to Greece and Turkey, giving legal force to what became known as the Truman Doctrine. The law provided economic and military assistance to both countries at a moment when U.S. leaders feared that instability in the eastern Mediterranean could expand Soviet influence. Greece was in the middle of a civil war, while Turkey faced pressure over control of strategic territory and access between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. Britain had previously played the leading role in supporting Greece and Turkey, but after World War II it told the United States it could no longer bear that burden.Truman responded by asking Congress to approve aid, arguing that the United States had to support “free peoples” resisting outside pressure or armed minority movements. By signing the bill, Truman transformed that broad statement of foreign policy into statutory authority backed by federal money. Legally, the act mattered because it showed how Cold War policy would often be made: the president would identify a global threat, and Congress would authorize funds and tools to respond. It also helped normalize large peacetime commitments abroad, a sharp change from earlier American reluctance to enter long-term foreign entanglements. The statute became an early foundation for the national security state that grew through later aid programs, alliances, intelligence activities, and military commitments.The Truman Doctrine also raised enduring questions about the balance of power between Congress and the president in foreign affairs. Congress approved the aid, but the broader doctrine gave presidents a flexible language for intervention that could be invoked well beyond Greece and Turkey. In that sense, May 22, 1947, was not just a date in diplomatic history; it was a legal turning point in how the United States authorized, funded, and justified its Cold War role in the world.A Ninth Circuit panel appeared uncertain about whether Jack Daniel's proved enough to win its trademark dilution-by-tarnishment claim against VIP Products over the “Bad Spaniels” dog toy. The judges focused especially on whether Jack Daniel's had shown that anything beyond the words “Jack Daniel's” was famous enough to qualify for dilution protection. Judge Andrew Hurwitz pressed Jack Daniel's counsel on whether the company could rely on the fame of its name to protect broader elements of its label and bottle design. Jack Daniel's argued that the court should consider the full context of the toy, including its bottle-like appearance and bathroom-humor references. VIP, by contrast, argued that the analysis should be limited to the famous mark itself and the allegedly diluting mark, not the entire product presentation.The case began after VIP made a dog toy parodying a Jack Daniel's bottle with poop-themed jokes, prompting years of litigation over trademark infringement, dilution, parody, and free speech. The U.S. Supreme Court previously ruled that VIP could not use the Rogers test because the toy used another company's trademark-like features to identify VIP's own product. On remand, the district court rejected Jack Daniel's infringement claim but again found dilution by tarnishment, which VIP appealed. VIP also raised a First Amendment challenge to the federal tarnishment law, though both VIP and the federal government suggested the Ninth Circuit could decide the case without reaching that constitutional issue. The Justice Department intervened to defend the law's constitutionality while also acknowledging that waiver or insufficient proof could let the panel avoid the First Amendment question.9th Circ. Questions Jack Daniel's' TM Win Over ‘Bad Spaniels' - Law360Meta has settled a closely watched lawsuit brought by Breathitt County School District in Kentucky over costs allegedly tied to youth mental health harms from social media. The case was important because it was the first school-district case against social media companies scheduled for trial on these claims. Breathitt had accused Meta, YouTube, Snap, and TikTok of designing platforms that kept young users engaged in harmful ways and contributed to anxiety, depression, self-harm, and other student mental health problems. The district sought more than $60 million, including money for a 15-year mental health program and an order requiring changes to allegedly addictive platform features. Meta's settlement follows earlier settlements by YouTube, Snap, and TikTok, meaning Breathitt's case is now fully resolved.The case was a bellwether, meaning it was chosen as a test case to help courts and parties evaluate similar lawsuits. About 1,200 school districts are pursuing related claims, and thousands of other social-media addiction lawsuits are pending in California state and federal courts. Meta said it resolved the case amicably and pointed to teen-safety tools such as Teen Accounts and parental controls. Lawyers for the school district said they remain focused on claims brought by the other districts. The settlement avoids a June 15 trial that could have shaped settlement talks and strategy across the broader litigation. Other major school systems, including Los Angeles and New York City, have filed similar lawsuits, while DeKalb County, Georgia, has claimed billions in future mental health costs.Meta settles first US case over school costs tied to youth mental health, court filing shows | ReutersOpenAI has expanded its group of outside law firms as it faces major litigation, complex business deals, and a possible future IPO. Reuters reports that the company, recently valued at $852 billion, now works with more than a dozen large U.S. law firms. OpenAI, CEO Sam Altman, and lawyers from Wachtell Lipton and Morrison & Foerster recently defeated Elon Musk's lawsuit claiming that OpenAI had departed from its original nonprofit mission. That ruling removed one potential obstacle to a possible IPO, which sources have said could happen as soon as September.

In this episode of Engaging in the Next, Edessa Polzin, director of strategic partnerships at the American Marketing Association, joins hosts Colby Horton and Frank Humada for a conversation about the evolving role of marketing within associations and how teams can work smarter in an increasingly complex landscape. Polzin reflects on her own path into the association space and explains why AMA's mission resonates with her background as a marketing practitioner. The discussion explores the growing pressure on association marketers to drive outcomes like membership growth, event attendance, and engagement while often having limited influence over larger organizational decisions involving products, pricing, and technology. Polzin argues that marketing leaders need a stronger voice at the strategy table as the profession becomes increasingly tied to operations, analytics, martech, and business strategy. The conversation also examines how associations can better leverage first-party data, prioritize high-impact work with lean teams, and thoughtfully integrate AI into their workflows without getting distracted by hype. Polzin shares practical perspectives on automation, personalization, AI governance, and the importance of delivering value in ways that genuinely earn audience attention.

What if the anxiety, overthinking, people pleasing, emotional shutdown, hypervigilance, burnout, and relationship struggles you experience today… were never actually "you" to begin with? In this deeply personal and profoundly eye-opening solo episode, Darin Olien dives into the hidden nervous system programming formed between the ages of 0 and 8 that silently shapes our adult lives. Drawing from neuroscience, trauma research, attachment theory, epigenetics, somatic healing, and his own emotional breakthroughs, Darin explores how childhood experiences become subconscious operating systems that influence everything from relationships and stress responses to chronic disease and self-worth. This episode is a powerful roadmap toward healing. Darin breaks down the science behind trauma, the ACE study, nervous system dysregulation, emotional patterning, and neuroplasticity, while also sharing practical tools like somatic experiencing, expressive writing, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems to help listeners begin rewiring their emotional lives from the inside out. What You'll Learn How childhood experiences program the nervous system Why most adult emotional reactions are subconscious survival patterns The connection between trauma, stress hormones, and chronic disease How the nervous system stores emotional experiences in the body Why people pleasing, hypervigilance, burnout, and emotional shutdown develop The science behind neuroplasticity and rewiring the brain What the ACE Study revealed about childhood trauma and adult health How trauma impacts the amygdala, hippocampus, and stress-response systems Why emotional patterns are adaptations, not character flaws How epigenetics can pass trauma responses across generations The role of somatic experiencing in trauma healing Practical tools for emotional regulation and nervous system repair

They are not your identity. They are not permanent. And through awareness, somatic healing, emotional processing, nervous system regulation, and conscious repetition, those deeply rooted patterns can be rewritten into something healthier, freer, and more aligned with who you truly are."

In this episode of Reboot IT, host Dave Coriale sits down with Vinnu Deshetty, Product Manager at the American Chemical Society, Event ROI Coach, and longtime PCMA instructor, to discuss the evolving role of technology in events. They explore how AI is reshaping planning and analytics, how associations can better serve exhibitors and attendees, and why intentional innovation matters more than ever. Vinnu shares practical insights on avoiding “shiny tech syndrome,” aligning tech with business goals, and using data to drive meaningful outcomes. The conversation highlights the importance of purpose-driven decisions in delivering real value from events. Themes and Topics: The Current State of Event Technology Events are operating “between four and five” in tech adoption, reflecting strong progress with room for improvement. Associations are balancing traditional goals like attendance with new expectations for engagement and personalization. AI is accelerating innovation while increasing complexity in tool selection. Purpose-Built Event Tech (Not One-Size-Fits-All) Technology is now tailored to planners, attendees, and exhibitors instead of being one broad solution. Vendors are solving specific pain points like workflows, engagement, and lead generation. Comparing solutions is more complex because platforms are no longer “apples to apples.” AI's Growing Impact on Event Operations AI is reducing manual work, like building session schedules.  Systems can learn from past data such as session ratings and attendance trends.  Predictive analytics and real-time insights are becoming more common in decision-making.  Data Strategy: Start with Intent Organizations often collect too much data without a clear purpose. Defining the questions upfront is critical to making data actionable. Focusing on a few key goals prevents teams from trying to “boil the ocean.” Exhibitor Expectations and ROI Pressure Exhibitors are asking sharper questions about ROI and measurable outcomes. Associations compete with alternative marketing channels for sponsor dollars. Integrated systems now provide better insights into lead generation and attendee behavior. Change Management and Innovation Mindset Innovation requires intentional planning, not just adopting “shiny” tools. Pilot programs and incremental changes help reduce risk. Understanding stakeholder impact is essential before rolling out new technology.

Prescribed burns are carefully planned fires on public lands to help reduce the risk of wildfires in communities. They're often conducted by by government agencies such as the Bureau of Land Management, but new groups of community members are now getting involved. Prescribed Burn Associations, also known as PBAs, are local groups of community members, land owners and other volunteers that conduct prescribed burns on private land. They also work closely with certified burn managers for planning, securing permits and more to prepare the site for fire.   Chris Adlam is a regional fire specialist for Oregon State University's Extension Program. Aaron Krikava is an organizer for the Rogue Valley PBA. They both join us to share more on what PBAs are and the impact they have had in Oregon.  

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain how memories are formed and how key neurochemicals, such as adrenaline, can be leveraged to enhance memory formation. I also share science-based protocols to enhance learning, strengthen memory recall and reduce the number of repetitions needed to retain new information. In addition, I discuss how exercise supports cognitive function and memory and explore unique memory phenomena such as déjà vu. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.
