Con l'odore delle grigliate estive nell'aria, questo nuovo episodio di IO&TEch prende una pausa dalle notizie frenetiche per dedicare una vera e propria lettera d'amore ai dispositivi compatti. Chiacchierando in totale relax, ripercorriamo la storia della linea "mini" di casa Apple: dal trionfale ritorno del Mac mini nell'era Apple Silicon fino al ruolo sempre più centrale del prossimo iPad mini OLED, in arrivo in autunno con cornici ridotte, chip A20 Pro a 2 nanometri e speaker rivoluzionari. Ma la vera domanda è: c'è spazio per un sesto modello nella line-up degli smartphone? Guidati da un prompt esplorativo fatto a Gemini, ci spingiamo a immaginare l'iPhone 18 mini dei sogni: un concentrato di tecnologia che sfrutta la riduzione dei bordi (BRS) per offrire 5,8 pollici di schermo, e la super-efficienza dei 2 nanometri per abbattere definitivamente l'ansia da batteria. Tra sogni di un iPhone Air bilanciato, l'imminente arrivo di Siri AI e i limiti strutturali, un inno per chi non vuole rinunciare al form factor più comodo di sempre.Visita Digiteee e scopri tutte le notizie sulla tecnologiaSegui Digiteee su TikTokDimmi la tua su Twitter, su Threads, su Telegram, su Mastodon, su BlueSky o su Instagram.Mail jacoporeale@yahoo.it Scopri dove ascoltare il podcast e lascia una recensione su Apple Podcast o Spotify.Ascolta An iPad guy su YouTube Podcast.Supporta il podcast
Spencer Reese tackles the five most common Thrift Savings Plan questions he receives from listeners via email, Instagram, and the podcast inbox. He covers the Roth vs. Traditional decision for service members, how to think about TSP fund selection within your overall asset allocation, why the TSP's tax advantages make it a standout account for military members, what happens if your contributions exceed the annual limit, and what to do with your TSP after separating from the military. Questions asked and topics covered: Should I choose Roth or traditional TSP? Why most service members should default to Roth given low taxable military pay Combat Zone Tax Exclusion (CZTE) pay and why it makes Roth especially powerful When traditional starts to make sense — 22%+ bracket, field grade officers, pilot or medical bonuses, high-earning spouse The option to mix and match contributions What TSP investment strategy should I pick? Applying your asset allocation across all accounts, not fund by fund How C and S fund allocations translate to total US stock market exposure Where international exposure fits in your IRA or brokerage account The case for defaulting to a Lifecycle (L) fund based on birth year plus 65 or 70 Why there's plenty of time to adjust before bond allocations ramp up Is there a big reason to use the TSP over other investments? Taxes as the primary driver — the triple tax benefit of untaxed military pay into Roth accounts BAH, BAS, COLA, and CZTE as untaxed income The automatic 5% BRS match after 24 months of service In-plan Roth conversions for moving matched traditional dollars to the Roth side Low costs and built-in diversification What happens if my contribution percentage exceeds the annual limit in December? How DFAS caps and auto-adjusts your final contribution How excess contributions are refunded if a mistake occurs The 2026 contribution limit of $24,500 Why missing the max by a couple hundred dollars doesn't matter What should I do with my TSP after I leave the military? Why leaving it in the TSP is the default recommendation Continued access to the G Fund Rolling outside 401(k) funds into the TSP to consolidate When rolling over to a new employer's 401(k) or a traditional IRA might make sense
Nesta edição do "Direção Segura", a inspetora Ana Carolina Cavalcanti, da Polícia Rodoviária Federal no Espírito Santo, atende à dúvida enviada pelo ouvinte Júnior e explica como é feita a nomeação e a numeração das rodovias brasileiras.A nomenclatura das vias federais (BRs) e estaduais segue uma lógica geográfica bem definida: enquanto a sigla indica a jurisdição, o primeiro algarismo define a categoria da via e os dois números seguintes apontam sua orientação em relação ao mapa do Brasil e a Brasília, seja no sentido radial, longitudinal, transversal ou diagonal.Como funciona essa lógica na prática e o que cada número indica no trajeto? A inspetora detalha as regras de sinalização do país.
One deployment. $87,000 into Roth accounts. Never taxed going in, never taxed coming out — and if you're 25, that grows to roughly $1.5 million by 60 without a dollar of federal income tax. In this solo episode, Spencer Reese breaks down the military mega backdoor Roth: the combat-zone strategy that lets you blow past the normal TSP limit using tax-exempt CZTE pay and the Roth in-plan conversions that became available in January 2026. He walks through the exact myPay percentages, the monthly conversion rhythm, and the mistakes that can lock you out of contributions or cost you the BRS match. Questions Answered What is the combat zone tax exclusion (CZTE), and who qualifies? What's the difference between traditional and Roth contributions? Which two limits make this strategy work — and why doesn't CZTE pay count against the elective deferral limit? How much extra TSP space does a combat zone deployment actually open up? What percentages should you set in myPay? What are the Roth in-plan conversion rules and restrictions? Why convert monthly instead of once at the end of the year? What happens to the taxable portion, and how do you pay those taxes? What if you're only deployed six months? Where do people screw this up? What should you change when you get home? Main Topics Covered The triple tax advantage of CZTE pay: tax-free in, tax-free growth, tax-free out 2026 limits: $24,500 elective deferral vs. the $72,000 annual additions limit Why tax-exempt combat zone pay only counts against the higher limit Worked example on $100,000 base pay: ~24–25% to Roth TSP, ~43% to traditional TSP Roth in-plan conversions — up to 26 per calendar year, $500 minimum, $500 must stay behind The pro rata rule and why monthly sweeps beat one December conversion Stacking Roth IRAs on top: $7,500 single / $15,000 married filing jointly Common mistakes: maxing the Roth TSP early and losing the BRS match, the 92% myPay cap that makes DFAS reject the whole transaction, and letting gains pile up before converting The six-month deployment version — still roughly $74,000 into Roth accounts Turning off the extra contributions once you're back home Deploying next year?

In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with pelvic floor physical therapist Hayley Kava, founder of UMA Pelvic Health, to tackle one of the most common pregnancy complaints that doesn't get nearly enough attention: SI joint pain. If you've been told pregnancy pain is "just part of it," this conversation is your reminder that you don't have to simply suffer through it. Hayley explains what's actually happening in your pelvis during pregnancy, why SI joint pain develops, and how your pelvic floor, core, ribcage, breathing, and overall movement patterns all work together. Together, HeHe and Hayley break down why treating the pelvis in isolation often misses the bigger picture, how pregnancy hormones and your changing biomechanics influence pain, and why small changes to the way you move, stand, breathe, and rest can make a huge difference. They also discuss practical tools like SI belts, belly support bands, Pilates balls, yoga blocks, and gentle movement strategies, along with when those tools can help... and when they might not. Hayley also shares why pelvic floor physical therapy isn't just about internal exams (and yes, those are always optional), how to build a supportive birth team, and why individualized care is one of the best investments you can make during pregnancy. Whether you're already dealing with pelvic pain or hoping to prevent it, this episode is packed with practical, evidence-based strategies to help you move more comfortably, feel more supported, and better understand your changing body throughout pregnancy. 00:00 Stop Blaming Pelvic Floor 01:03 Pelvic Floor Basics 01:56 Meet Hayley Kava 03:19 Why SI Pain Matters 06:43 SI Joint Anatomy 09:18 Normal Asymmetry Patterns 12:20 Pubic Pain and Rolling 15:52 Inhibit Then Retrain 17:56 Rubiks Cube Body Model 20:10 Stop Bracing to Sneeze 21:34 Pregnancy Posture Fixes 25:31 Preparing for Labor Moves 29:14 Build Your Care Team 33:39 Pregnancy Compensation Patterns 34:36 Spotting Habitual Postures 36:46 Mindful Pain Check Ins 38:29 Shifting Stance And Sitting 41:29 Tension Beyond Pelvic Floor 43:23 Guarding And SI Joint Myths 46:16 Ribs Hip And Big Picture 47:57 Internal Exam Is Optional 50:38 Daily Tools And Movement 56:43 Services Access And Wrap Up Guest Bio: Hayley became a pelvic floor therapist in 2017 after a birth injury opened her eyes to the limitations in traditional pelvic rehab.

VOV1 - Hiện tượng El Nino đang tác động rõ nét đến vụ mùa năm nay tại Ấn Độ khi nhiều bang ghi nhận tình trạng thiếu mưa, tiến độ gieo trồng chậm và nguy cơ thiếu nước gia tăng. Giới chuyên gia cảnh báo nếu diễn biến này kéo dài, sản lượng nông nghiệp, giá lương thực và tăng trưởng kinh tế.Bang Telangana, một trong những vùng sản xuất nông nghiệp trọng điểm ở miền Nam Ấn Độ, đang trở thành tâm điểm của những lo ngại. Hôm nay (13/7), người phát ngôn Đảng BRS – một đảng chính trị lớn ở bang, ông Ravula Sridhar, cho biết lượng mưa thiếu hụt do tác động của El Nino đã khiến hoạt động sản xuất vụ Kha-ríp (Kharif) - vụ mùa lớn nhất trong năm của Ấn Độ - bị đình trệ.Theo ông Ravula Sridhar, đến nay mới có khoảng 38% diện tích đất canh tác của bang được gieo trồng, trong khi diện tích gieo cấy lúa chỉ đạt 6,4%, thấp hơn rất nhiều so với tiến độ thông thường. Ông cảnh báo nếu mưa tiếp tục thiếu hụt trong những tuần tới, sản lượng lương thực của bang sẽ bị ảnh hưởng nghiêm trọng.Không chỉ nông nghiệp, Telangana còn đang chịu áp lực lớn về nguồn nước. Hiện thủ phủ Hyderabad đã bắt đầu đối mặt với tình trạng thiếu nước sinh hoạt. Ông Ravula Sridhar kêu gọi chính quyền bang khẩn trương triển khai các kế hoạch dự phòng nhằm bảo đảm nguồn nước cho người dân, đồng thời hỗ trợ nông dân ứng phó với diễn biến bất lợi của thời tiết.Những lo ngại tại bang Telangana phản ánh bức tranh chung của nhiều địa phương trên khắp Ấn Độ. Theo hãng tin Reuters, tính đến đầu tháng 7, diện tích gieo trồng vụ Kha-ríp trên cả nước vẫn thấp hơn khoảng 20% so với cùng kỳ năm trước. Tình trạng này buộc nhiều địa phương phải khuyến cáo nông dân chuyển sang các loại cây trồng chịu hạn như ngô, kê hoặc các loại đậu nhằm giảm thiểu rủi ro nếu lượng mưa tiếp tục thiếu hụt.Theo Cơ quan Khí tượng Ấn Độ (IMD), mặc dù gió mùa Tây Nam đã bao phủ toàn bộ lãnh thổ đúng thời điểm, song lượng mưa vẫn phân bổ “không đồng đều”. El Nino có thể khiến thời tiết diễn biến cực đoan hơn, vừa gây khô hạn kéo dài tại một số khu vực, vừa tạo ra những đợt mưa lớn cục bộ ở nơi khác. Điều này không chỉ ảnh hưởng đến năng suất cây trồng mà còn làm gia tăng nguy cơ lũ quét, ngập úng và thiệt hại đối với cơ sở hạ tầng nông nghiệp.Các chuyên gia cũng cảnh báo El Nino không chỉ tác động đến nông nghiệp mà còn ảnh hưởng đến nhiều lĩnh vực khác của nền kinh tế. Lượng nước về các hồ chứa suy giảm đang làm giảm sản lượng thủy điện, trong khi nhu cầu sử dụng điện tăng cao do nắng nóng kéo dài. Theo số liệu ngành điện Ấn Độ, sản lượng thủy điện trong tháng 6 đã giảm hơn 20% so với cùng kỳ năm trước do lượng nước về các hồ chứa suy giảm. Nếu sản lượng lúa gạo, đậu, bông và mía giảm, giá lương thực có thể tăng trở lại, sẽ gây áp lực lên lạm phát và thu nhập của hàng trăm triệu người dân Ấn Độ.Hiện ngành nông nghiệp tạo sinh kế cho gần một nửa lực lượng lao động và đóng góp khoảng 16–18% GDP của Ấn Độ. Trong bối cảnh mùa gió mùa Tây Nam cung cấp khoảng 70% lượng mưa hàng năm và quyết định phần lớn hoạt động sản xuất nông nghiệp, diễn biến của hiện tượng En Nino được dự báo sẽ ảnh hưởng trực tiếp đến sản lượng lương thực, nguồn nước, lạm phát và triển vọng tăng trưởng kinh tế của quốc gia Nam Á này./.

One carrier controlling 40 percent of the U.S. rail freight market. Monthly grade-crossing safety inspections are being reduced to quarterly. And a Long Island Rail Road strike that stopped the trains and finally delivered what two presidential emergency boards had already recommended. On today's episode of America's Work Force Union Podcast, Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen Secretary-Treasurer Brandon Elvey walks through three active fronts in the rail industry. He discusses Union Pacific's third attempt to acquire Norfolk Southern through the Surface Transportation Board, why the BRS and a coalition of rail unions and customer associations oppose it and what a 20 percent membership reduction on Union Pacific already signals about what that railroad looks like for workers. He addresses the AAR's push to reduce grade crossing warning device inspections from monthly to quarterly — a deregulatory move the BRS says contradicts 30 years of safety data. And he describes the Long Island Rail Road strike in which six rail unions working together finally forced an agreement after three years of bargaining under the Railway Labor Act. Visit brs.org to learn more about the Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen.

O governador Jorginho Mello esteve em Lauro Müller na tarde desta quinta-feira (21) para assinar a ordem de serviço que autoriza a pavimentação asfáltica de três importantes vias do município. As obras contemplam as estradas gerais Rio Amaral Rádio, Vargem Grande e Rio Amaral Gruta, totalizando mais de 7,2 quilômetros de extensão. Durante o evento, o governador destacou o avanço do programa Estrada Boa Rural, que, segundo ele, já conta com mais de 200 municípios com projetos aprovados em parceria com o Governo do Estado. Segundo Jorginho Mello, o programa prevê investimentos de aproximadamente R$ 2,5 bilhões e busca levar pavimentação para comunidades rurais que historicamente não recebiam obras de infraestrutura. O governador afirmou que as melhorias devem proporcionar mais segurança, mobilidade e incentivar rotas alternativas às SCs e BRs, valorizando o turismo e o deslocamento no interior. “O prefeito escolhe a estrada e o Estado faz em parceria com o município. É um programa que vai trazer asfalto para comunidades que jamais imaginavam ter esse tipo de obra”, declarou. O governador também ressaltou os investimentos estaduais na recuperação da malha viária catarinense. Conforme ele, cerca de R$ 5 bilhões já foram aplicados em obras rodoviárias e atualmente 95% das rodovias estaduais estariam recuperadas. Além da assinatura das ordens de serviço, o evento teve clima de pré-campanha eleitoral, reunindo dezenas de pré-candidatos à Assembleia Legislativa, Câmara Federal e Senado. Jorginho Mello comentou sobre o apoio político que vem recebendo de prefeitos catarinenses para sua candidatura à reeleição. Segundo o governador, prefeitos de diferentes partidos têm se aproximado da atual gestão em razão das obras e investimentos realizados nos municípios. Serra do Rio do Rastro deve receber nova iluminação e recuperação do pavimento A visita do governador também serviu para discutir a situação da Serra do Rio do Rastro, que enfrenta problemas recorrentes na iluminação e deterioração em trechos do pavimento de concreto. Jorginho Mello afirmou que o Governo do Estado prepara uma ampla revitalização da serra, incluindo melhorias na iluminação, recuperação estrutural e intervenções voltadas ao turismo. O secretário de Estado da Infraestrutura e Mobilidade, Ricardo Grando, explicou que os furtos constantes de cabos elétricos têm causado dificuldades na manutenção da iluminação da serra, situação semelhante à enfrentada pela Ponte Hercílio Luz. De acordo com o secretário, o governo estuda implantar um novo modelo de iluminação com utilização de células fotovoltaicas, tornando o sistema mais independente e menos vulnerável a furtos. Ricardo Grando informou ainda que o Estado já possui levantamento técnico para recuperação das placas de concreto da rodovia e que as primeiras intervenções devem começar entre 90 e 120 dias. O secretário também citou melhorias previstas no mirante da serra, diante do grande fluxo de turistas que visitam a região.

The very system designed to save lives in the air becomes a hidden danger on the ground. Todd and John break down a January 2026 NTSB safety alert warning first responders about the risks posed by Ballistic Recovery Systems (BRS) after an aircraft accident. While BRS have saved countless lives by deploying parachutes in emergencies, the explosive activation system can be dangerous after a crash. Hear about three real-world incidents where first responders were put at risk—either because they didn't know a BRS was installed or didn't fully understand the danger. As these systems become more common across a wider range of small aircraft, the risk is growing and awareness isn't keeping up. In one chilling case, a crashed aircraft caught fire and the BRS deployed while first responders were standing nearby. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but the close call underscores a critical lesson. This discussion is a must-watch for first responders, pilots, and even Good Samaritans who may rush in to help after a plane crash.

Starting January 28, 2026, military members can finally convert their traditional TSP to Roth while still serving...and if you're deployed to a combat zone, you could convert tens of thousands at near-zero tax rates. Brian "ALF" O'Neill from Wingman Wealth breaks down the game-changing TSP in-plan conversion feature and reveals why this could be a 6- or 7-figure lifetime tax savings for service members who get the strategy right. Main Points Roth vs Traditional Basics- Roth is "tax insuranc" against future taxation Why Military Tax Rates Are So Low What Are TSP In-Plan Conversions? New feature launched January 28, 2026 Convert traditional TSP to Roth TSP while still serving (previously had to wait until separation or age 59½) Can do up to 26 conversions per year Entire converted amount added to taxable income for that year Critical: TSP does NOT allow tax withholding; must have cash set aside externally Conversions are irreversible (no recharacterization allowed) The Combat Zone Golden Opportunity CZTE (Combat Zone Tax Exclusion) drops taxable income to near-zero Can convert large traditional TSP balances at 0-12% tax rates during deployment year Don't have to convert while physically in combat zone—any time during that tax year Example: E-5 deployed full year could convert $50,000+ at minimal tax cost Combat zone contributions also pro-rata (10% CZTE balance = only 90% of conversion taxable) This opportunity disappears after separation—can't replicate as civilian Tax Planning Essentials Paying the Tax Bill Strategic Timing for Conversions Best time #1: End of year (November-December) when you know actual income Best time #2: During market downturns—pay tax on lower value, convert more shares Example: $10,000 balance drops to $5,000, convert at 12% = $600 tax vs. $1,200 Don't tie conversions to deployment timing—tie to when you can see full-year income picture Can dollar-cost-average with multiple conversions throughout year (but probably unnecessary) The "2-1-0" Framework (Advanced) Two: Optimize for two spouses, married filing jointly, similar lifespans One: Optimize for surviving spouse facing higher single tax rates (widow/widower penalty) Zero: Optimize for heirs—prepay tax bill, leave Roth money to children Advanced strategy: High-earning children gift parents money for Roth conversions at parent's lower rate Who Should Convert and How Much Five-Year Rules and Withdrawal Restrictions Common Mistakes to Avoid Implementation Details Related Strategies When Professional Help Makes Sense First-time converters with 5-figure amounts Complex family situations (multiple income sources, kids in college) High-income earners considering large conversions Anyone uncertain about tax projections Use MFAA advisors, Military Tax Experts Alliance, or fee-only CFPs Resources & Links Wingman Wealth: wingmanwealth.com Military Financial Advisors Association (MFAA): militaryfinancialadvisors.org Fighter Pilot Finance Facebook Group (managed by Alf) Nectarine: hellonectarine.com (fee-only advisor consultations) Military Tax Experts Alliance: militarytaxexperts.org IRS Estimated Tax Payments: irs.gov Dinky Town Calculators (free tax projection tools): dinkytown.net/taxes.html Related Podcast Episodes: Episode 2: TSP Deep Dive (most popular episode) Various TSP fund analysis episodes Key Takeaways TSP in-plan conversions launched January 28, 2026—military members can now convert traditional TSP to Roth while still serving without waiting for separation Combat zone deployments create once-in-a-lifetime opportunities—CZTE income drops taxable income to near-zero, enabling $50,000+ conversions at 0-12% tax rates You must have external cash for taxes—TSP does NOT allow withholding from conversions; need savings, refund, or estimated payments ready Most military members face higher retirement tax rates—pension + civilian job + Social Security likely pushes you into 22-24% brackets, making Roth conversions at current 10-12% rates a no-brainer Conversions are irreversible—no recharacterization allowed, so measure twice and do tax projections before converting Market downturns are conversion opportunities—when account value drops 50%, you pay tax on half the value but convert the same number of shares BRS members have automatic conversion candidates—5% government match always goes traditional, creating ongoing conversion opportunities if you're in low brackets State residency matters enormously—converting while legal resident of Texas saves 5-13% vs. high-tax states like California or New York This could be six-figure lifetime tax savings—depending on account size, career length, and strategy execution, potential $10,000-$100,000+ in tax savings November is optimal conversion month—you know actual income for the year, can calculate exact bracket room, and avoid year-end surprises Spencer and Jamie offer one-on-one Military Money Mentor sessions.

Is 2026 the year you finally take control of your military finances? With a 3.8% pay raise, new TSP contribution limits of $24,500, and proven strategies that helped one E-7 reach $600,000 in net worth by year 14, Spencer and Jamie break down exactly how to build wealth while serving, even if you're starting from scratch or recovering from financial setbacks. In this episode, we provide a comprehensive 2026 financial reset for military families, covering everything from emergency funds and debt payoff to maxing tax-advantaged accounts and avoiding lifestyle creep. Perfect for anyone wanting to turn the new year into a fresh financial start. Main Discussion Points Know Where You Are Before You Start Track your spending using apps like Monarch Money, YNAB, Rocket Money, or simple spreadsheet Face your financial reality- write down all debt and net worth even if it's negative Government shutdown proved why emergency funds matter: 3-6 months of expenses minimum Example: $500 car repair covered by emergency fund eliminated stress entirely Unique Military Financial Advantages Tax-free income: BAH, BAS, COLA not subject to federal income tax or payroll taxes (7%+ savings) State tax residency: Change to tax-free state (Texas, Florida, etc.) when stationed there! Spouse can too under Military Spouse Residency Relief Act TSP match: 5% automatic match after 2 years for BRS members. Don't leave free money on table Healthcare and housing covered through Tricare and BAH/base housing Example: Saving $300/month by changing state residency adds up to thousands annually 2026 Numbers to Know TSP contribution limit: $24,500 (up from previous year) TSP annual additions limit: $72,000 (includes match and combat zone contributions) Roth IRA limit: $7,000 per person ($14,000 for married couples, even if spouse doesn't work) Military pay raise: 3.8% coming.

Let it compound for 20 years Path to Military Millionaire Status E7 example: $500/month starting as E3, by age 45 = $1 million at 7% return Real example from Reddit: E7 with 14 years, $600,000 saved, contributing $20-25k/year In 10 years that E7 will have $1.2 million just from money already contributed (before new contributions) Add military pension: $30k/year plus $40k from 4% rule = $70k annual income in retirement Time is your biggest asset. US stock market doubles roughly every 7-10 years Common Mistakes to Avoid in 2026 Not contributing to TSP at all (minimum 5%, goal 15%+) TSP loans for non-emergencies...change behavior instead New car trap: 7-year car loans becoming standard, shooting yourself in financial foot Lifestyle creep: Give half of pay raise to savings, half to lifestyle improvements Waiting for "perfect time."

Debate da Super Manhã: Para quem vai curtir o feriadão da Semana Santa e de Tiradentes 2025 deve ficar atento a situação da malha rodoviária de Pernambuco. Trechos perigosos, sem sinalização; e degradados, com buracos, remendos no asfalto e vegetação alta, que são observados nas BRs 232 e 104, principais caminhos que levam para o Agreste do estado. No debate desta quinta-feira (17), a comunicadora Natalia Ribeiro conversa com os nossos convidados para falar sobre as estradas do interior pernambucano, a conservação e os investimentos nas rodovias, a previsão para o início e conclusão das obras e o atual cenário das rotas federais e estaduais de Pernambuco.

This week, I'm talking to Reka and Dorina, the founders of Budapest Racquet Society—or BRS—in, you guessed it, Budapest.We're in the early days of this new tennis club movement, but something exciting is definitely happening at the intersection of social community and sports. Running and training have paved the way, and now tennis is stepping into the spotlight—and it's emerging fast.For a certain generation, the concept of social community is second nature. People are craving connection and movement, whether it's reconnecting with something they loved as kids or finally trying something they've always wanted to but found intimidating. Tennis has traditionally carried that air of exclusivity, but these new clubs are flipping the script. They're all about connection, community, and a genuine passion for the sport. BRS is a perfect example, making serious waves in Budapest's tennis scene.In this episode, we dive into Reka and Dorina's tennis backgrounds, the tennis culture in Hungary, and why Budapest seems especially welcoming to this new style of club. What I love about BRS and others like it is their focus on individuality and inclusivity. On court, with a racquet in hand, you're simply a tennis player—no clichés required. At its core, the draw of these clubs goes beyond the sport. It's about fun—the joy of being on court, moving, learning, and improving alongside others. Honestly, life doesn't get much better than that.A huge thanks to Dorina and Reka for sharing their time and for what they're doing for tennis in Budapest. I'm a big fan of the sport and all these new clubs popping up around the world.As always, share this pod with like-minded people or anyone who's thought about getting into tennis or racquet sports but didn't know where to start. Chances are, there's a club like BRS in a city near you—find them, get on court, and get involved.From Chris and me, peace.

Töröcsik Dániel: Dani a magyar kulturális élet egyik kiemelkedő alakja. tetováló művészként bokszolóként és árulóként ismert, aki nemcsak Magyarországon, hanem az Egyesült Államokban élő magyar közösségek számára is fontos hang.

Dani rendkívül nyitott személyiség, aki mindig szívesen osztja meg gondolatait a hagyományokról, értékekről és az emberek közötti kapcsolódásról. Béres Attila (DR BRS): Attila egy valódi zenei ikon, aki a modern magyar popkultúrában egyedi stílust képvisel. DJ-ként és producerként olyan slágereket hozott létre, amelyek mindenki számára ismerősek lehetnek. Zenei karrierje mellett rendkívül elgondolkodtató meglátásai vannak a világ működéséről, és a podcast során megmutatta azt a mélyebb oldalát, amelyet ritkán láthatunk a reflektorfényben. Témák, amikről beszélgettünk: 1. Hálaadás Amerikában és Magyarországon: 2. Szexuális zaklatás – P Diddy be trollkodta magát a podkesztünkbe 3. Halloween és Valentin-nap – Magyarország vs. Amerika 4. Hit, Isten, vallás Miért érdemes meghallgatnod ezt az epizódot? Ez a podcast nemcsak szórakoztató, hanem elgondolkodtató is. A humor és a mélyebb tartalom tökéletes egyensúlyával Dani és Attila képesek voltak a legkomplexebb témákat is könnyedén és őszintén megközelíteni. Ha kíváncsi vagy, hogyan látják a magyarok Amerikát, hogyan alakulnak át az ünnepek, vagy csak szeretnél egy jót nevetni és közben elmerülni a lélek mélyebb kérdéseiben, akkor ez az epizód neked szól.
Spencer and Jamie explain how to maximize TSP contributions under the Blended Retirement System (BRS), including calculating monthly contribution percentages and avoiding common mistakes that could result in missing matching funds. They break down the 2025 contribution limits and discuss strategies for both BRS and legacy retirement system participants. Here's the TSP BRS maximizing chart. Questions discussed: What are the TSP contribution limits for 2025? How do Roth TSP and Roth IRA limits differ? How should you calculate monthly TSP contributions under BRS? What happens if you front-load TSP contributions under BRS? How do you handle mid-year pay increases? What should you do if you over-contribute? How do you adjust contributions if starting later in the year?

Giovanni Virgil Erb egy olyan zenész, akinek története a tehetség, szenvedély és kitartás tökéletes példája. Egy zenészcsalád büszkeségeként nőtt fel, és már egészen fiatal korában megmutatkozott különleges zenei érzéke. Mindössze öt éves volt, amikor először ült zongora elé, és édesapja, aki szintén zongorista és énekes, az első tanáraként mutatta meg neki a zene világának csodáit. Giovanni számára a zongorabillentyűk nemcsak hangszerelemek, hanem egy univerzum kapui, ahol minden egyes hang egy történetet mesél el. De Giovanni élete nem állt meg a családi otthon zenei hagyományainál. Az utazás iránti vágy és a világ megismerése már fiatal korában magával ragadta. Úgy döntött, hogy zenei tehetségét a világ tengerein bontakoztatja ki, és előadóművészként hajókra szállt. Számtalan óceánjárón lenyűgözte a közönséget, miközben életének minden pillanatában új tapasztalatokat gyűjtött. Giovanni számára a zene és az utazás szorosan összekapcsolódott, hiszen az idegen kultúrák és tájak inspirációja mélyen beépült művészetébe. Manapság Floridában telepedett le, ahol továbbra is a zene tölti ki mindennapjait. Az előadások és stúdiómunka mellett Giovanni egy olyan különleges alkotással büszkélkedhet, amelyet milliók hallanak nap mint nap: ő írta a népszerű *Big Brother* televíziós műsor főcímzenéjét. Ez az ikonikus dallam egyértelműen tükrözi Giovanni tehetségét és egyediségét, amelyet a világ minden tájáról érkező hallgatók értékelnek. Giovanni karrierjének egy másik fontos mérföldköve, hogy számos híres magyar előadóval dolgozott együtt. Horváth Charlie, Opitz Barbi és Dr. BRS nevei azok, amelyek nemcsak Giovanni zenei pályáját, hanem a magyar zenei világot is gazdagították. Ezek az együttműködések olyan alkotásokat eredményeztek, amelyek a klasszikus és modern zenei elemek harmonikus ötvözetét kínálják. Podcast epizódunkban Giovanni Virgil Erb életének mélységeit és magasságait járjuk körbe.

Dr. Amit Goyal, along with episode chair Dr. Dinu Balanescu (Mayo Clinic, Rochester), and FIT leads Dr. Sonu Abraham (University of Kentucky) and Dr. Natasha Vedage (MGH), dive into the fascinating topic of channelopathies with Dr. Michael Ackerman, a genetic cardiologist and professor of medicine, pediatrics, and pharmacology at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota. Using a case-based approach, they review the nuances of diagnosis and treatment of channelopathies, including Brugada syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), and long QT syndrome. Dr. Sonu Abraham drafted show notes. Audio engineering for this episode was expertly handled by CardioNerds intern, Christiana Dangas. The CardioNerds Beyond the Boards Series was inspired by the Mayo Clinic Cardiovascular Board Review Course and designed in collaboration with the course directors Dr. Amy Pollak, Dr. Jeffrey Geske, and Dr. Michael Cullen.

Pearls and Quotes - Channelopathies One cannot equate the presence of type 1 Brugada ECG pattern to the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome. Clinical history, family history, and/or genetic testing results are required to make a definitive diagnosis. The loss-of-function variants in the SCN5A gene, which encodes for the α-subunit of the NaV1.5 sodium channel, is the only Brugada susceptibility gene with sufficient evidence supporting pathogenicity. Exertional syncope is an “alarm” symptom that demands a comprehensive evaluation with 4 diagnostic tests: ECG, echocardiography, exercise treadmill test, and Holter monitor. Think of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) in a patient with exertional syncope and normal EKG! ICD therapy is never prescribed as monotherapy in patients with CPVT. Medical therapy with a combination of nadolol plus flecainide is the current standard of care. Long QT syndrome is one of the few clinical scenarios where genetic testing clearly guides management, particularly with respect to variability in beta-blocker responsiveness. Notes - Channelopathies 1. What are the diagnostic criteria for Brugada syndrome (BrS)? Three repolarization patterns are associated with Brugada syndrome in the right precordial leads (V1-V2): Type 1: Prominent coved ST-segment elevation displaying J-point amplitude or ST-segment elevation ≥2 mm, followed by a negative T wave. Type 2/3: Saddleback ST-segment configuration with variable levels of ST-segment elevation. It is important to note that only a type 1 pattern is diagnostic for Brugada syndrome, whereas patients with type 2/3 patterns may benefit from further testing. The Shanghai score acknowledges that relying solely on induced type 1 ECG changes has limitations. Therefore, one cannot equate the presence of a type 1 Brugada ECG pattern alone to the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome. The score suggests incorporating additional information—such as clinical history, family history, and/or genetic testing results—to achieve a definitive diagnosis. 2. What is the significance of genetic testing in Brugada syndrome? There are 23 alleged Brugada syndrome susceptibility genes published with varying levels of evidence. However, only one gene mutation, the loss-of-function variants in the SCN5A gene encoding for the α-subunit of the NaV1.5 sodium channel, is considered to have sufficient evidence. The overall yield of BrS genetic testing is 20%. The presence of PR prolongation (>200 ms) along with type I EKG pattern increases the yield to 40%. On the contrary, in the presence of a normal PR interval, the likelihood of SCN5A positivity drops to
