March 25 - 28 in Hall 1, booth A040/C041. Come see us, be on the podcast, and see all the amazing things exocad is doing for your lab! Has it been a year already?!!? Just a few weeks ago Elvis (sadly without Barb) set up in the Ivoclar Ballroom at the 40th LMT Lab Day Chicago (https://lmtmag.com/lmtlabday). Many conversations were recorded over the weekend and we decided to start the collection with 4 past guests that have come back to update everyone on the exciting thing they are working on. First up is Vicki Thomas, owner of the 2 person lab, Signature Smiles by Vicki Thomas. Awhile ago Vicki wanted to help other small labs by creating a buy-in group that will allow other labs to get volume deals that large labs get to take advantage of. So Vicki started Savvy Lab Solutions (https://savvylabsolutions.com/), a group dedicated to getting good pricing on the things you need to run your lab. She talks about why she stated it and some of the vendors that have already seen what the power of numbers can do. https://savvylabsolutions.com/ Next up is the "voice" behind LMT, Becky Tyre. Becky comes on to talk about the newest thing LMT is doing, Soundbites (https://lmtmag.com/podcast). This short audio podcast highlights the current month's magazine. Becky talks about her background in radio, why they started the podcast, and why you should be listening. https://lmtmag.com/podcast Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0MX2VTKfT5bxVXq9s7dPFN Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lmt-soundbites/id1745578142 We wrap up the episode to get an update on Katie Rinaldo & Mandy Area's push to make Denturist legal in Illinois.... and now in other states too!

Mean-spirited authoritarians—backed by greedy billionaires and bolstered by weak legislative branches—are leading many countries, including ours. I'm really concerned about the future of our world and our shared economy going forward. Do you remember the massive loss of jobs, homes and businesses after Wall Street crashed the world economy in 2008-2009? I do. Do you remember the unnecessary death and disease, the shattered families, the price increases, the supply chain disruptions and the corporate profiteering during the COVID19 pandemic and Donald Trump's first term? I do. All of this could all happen again but worse. In this podcast, I discuss the current economic situation in the US and the world, Trump's proposed strategies--like tariffs, trade wars and land grabs-- which I believe will be disastrous, and how we can fight back. In the last segment,  I discuss Trump's befuddle speech, numerous lies and erratic behavior and ask the question: How much plaque is in his brain? Time Stamps  | Segment 1: What Are You Buying ... or Not?  | 0:24 | We Are in the Midst of a Western Movie with No Hero  | 4:34 | Where's Our Hero?  | 6:21 | It's Time for Octogenarian Politicians to Retire  | 6:59 | Jon Stewart Cuts from Billions from Budget in Seconds  | 8:25 | Will the US Crash the World Economy Again?  | 10:13 | Segment 2: 10 Ways to Fight Back  | 13:59 | #1 Go to a Protest  | 15:04 | #2 Buy Nothing Days  | 17:49 | #3 Be a Choosy Shopper  | 18:51 | #4 Go on a Social Media Diet  | 20:52 | #5 Protect Your Personal Data, Information and Images  | 23:05 | #6 Cut Back on Online Shopping  | 12:40 | #7 Say Good-bye to Fast Fashion  |   26:37 | #8 Don't Wear Logo Gear  | 28:42 | #9 Be Self Reliant  | 30:09 | #10 Find Community in Real Life  | 31:19 | Segment 3: Dementia and Drugs in the White House  | 31:53 | Lying for Profit  | 32:36 | Does Trump Believe His Own Lies?  | 34:09 | Drugs and Diagnoses: The Public Has a Right to Know  | 35:18

Jason expressed skepticism about Harry Dent's predictions and emphasized the importance of looking at real data rather than relying on trends or assumptions. He discussed the current state of the housing market, the benefits of moving to a lower cost of living area, and the potential for future changes in housing prices. Jason also introduced a monthly masterclass on Northwest Indiana, encouraged attendees to register for one-on-one discussions, and hinted at future sessions on asset protection. Today Jason welcomes Harry Dent, a renowned economic forecaster, discussed the prolonged economic bubble. He emphasized that the current bubble, driven by massive government stimulus and money printing, is unprecedented in its longevity—three times longer than historical bubbles. Dent believes the bubble, which should have burst by 2021, has been artificially extended due to ongoing government intervention. He predicts the bubble will pop soon, with financial markets starting to crash in 2024, reaching their lowest point by 2026-2027. He warns that both stock and real estate markets are significantly overvalued, leading to a painful economic downturn. #HarryDent #EconomicBubble #FinancialCrisis #StockMarketCrash #RealEstateMarket #GovernmentStimulus #GreatRecession #InflationCrisis #FinancialAssets #InvestmentRisks #EconomicOutlook #MarketCrashPrediction #BubbleBurst #RealEstateBubble #Economy   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:28 Hurricane Helene and the rising costs of housing  2:55 Join our Zoom meetings EmpoweredInvestor.com 4:08 Harry "doomer" Dent and the problem with reading "trends" 6:30 Article: housing demand firming up with lower mortgage rates 8:02 Chart: Total Home Sales Contracts Pending 8:28 Buying Power and Sensitivity and the 11 million illegal immigrants 10:59 Affordability 12:47 Crash bros, the democrats and the Socialist Republic of California 15:20 August 2024 Real House Price Index Highlights 19:47 A Cautiously Optimistic Outlook 21:16 Join our Wednesday Zoom meeting!

The 'buy now, pay later' (BNPL) scheme allows for purchase on zero interest instalment plans with less credit requirement. Every second Monday of the month, The Straits Times takes a hard look at Singapore's social issues of the day with guests. In 2023, Singapore consumers spent $3.4 billion online and in-store using 'buy now, pay later' (BNPL) services from third-party providers like Atome and Grab PayLater, banks and retailers - without the need for minimum income as required by credit cards.  And members of Gen Z, those between 18 and 24 years of age, and young millennials between 25 and 34, were among the bigger users of this method, according to the Worldpay's 2024 Global Payments Report. With BNPL strengthening the purchasing power of youths, are there worrying social and financial implications from this new payment method, despite seemingly having more purchasing power?  To discuss more about this, ST assistant podcast editor Lynda Hong co-hosts with business correspondent Sue-Ann Tan to speak with their guests about the possible implications of the BNPL scheme on youths. Once in financial trouble with a $75,000 debt, Khairul Abbas Hamzah is now heading a consultancy to help debtors who are in the same boat - that he managed to get out of.  Also on the show is financial literacy expert Aaron Chwee, head of Wealth Advisory at OCBC Bank.  Highlights (click/tap above): 3:03 Instant gratification impulse among younger generation? 10:55 When BNPL becomes a slippery slope; what types of financial habits BNPL inculcates 21:18 Phantom debt and the recourse to get out of debt troubles 26:24 Abbas' $75,000 debt trouble  32:14 Social implications from BNPL  Read ST's Opinion section: https://str.sg/w7sH Read Sue-Ann Tan's articles: https://str.sg/KpUx  Hosts: Lynda Hong (lyndahong@sph.com.sg) and Sue-Ann Tan (suetan@sph.com.sg) Produced and edited by: Amirul Karim Executive producer: Ernest Luis Follow In Your Opinion Podcast here and get notified for new episode drops: Channel: https://str.sg/w7Qt Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/wukb Spotify: https://str.sg/w7sV Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg --- Follow more ST podcast channels: All-in-one ST Podcasts channel: https://str.sg/wvz7 ST Podcast website: http://str.sg/stpodcasts ST Podcasts YouTube: https://str.sg/4Vwsa --- Get The Straits Times' app, which has a dedicated podcast player section: The App Store: https://str.sg/icyB Google Play: https://str.sg/icyX --- #inyouropinionSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Laura Winter speaks with Peter Garretson, a senior fellow at the American Foreign Policy Council and co-author of the book “The Next Space Race: A Blueprint for American Primacy”; and Sam Wilson, a senior policy analyst for the Center for Space Policy and Strategy at The Aerospace Corporation.

On this episode of the Next Up podcast, Marlon met with Dr. Katie Wilson, the Executive Director of the Urban School Food Alliance, where they discussed the growth and impact of the organization in transforming school meals. The Alliance, consisting of the largest school districts in the country, uses its collective buying power to disrupt the marketplace and improve the quality of school meals. The directors of the Alliance have extensive experience and street cred in the food service industry. The Alliance provides support, resources, and education to school districts of all sizes, with a focus on procurement and innovation. =========================== Connect with us! =========================== IG: https://www.instagram.com/nxtgen_network/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/nextuptalkshow/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/nxtgenmarlon/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/NxtGenNetwork365 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nxtgen.network Media Kit: https://nxtgennetwork.serveddigizine.com/link/861493/ Served Digizine December 2024 Issue: https://nxtgennetwork.serveddigizine.com/link/473009/ =========================== Connect with our guest! =========================== IG: https://www.instagram.com/urbanschoolfoodalliance/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/urbanschoolfoodalliance YT: @UrbanschoolfoodallianceOrg Website: https://urbanschoolfoodalliance.org/ Donate: https://urbanschoolfoodalliance.org/donate/ ======================================== Subscribe and Listen to the Next Up Podcast HERE:

The Air Force is ringing the alarm bells over a yearlong continuing resolution, estimating that the service would lose as much as $13 billion in buying power before adjusting for inflation, the Air Force's top official said Wednesday. “[Some of the details] of that are really pretty catastrophic. And I don't think there's been enough discussion about some of those impacts,” Kristyn Jones, who is currently performing the duties of the Air Force under secretary, said during the Center for Strategic and International Studies event Wednesday. Under a full-year continuing resolution, the Space Force would face the largest funding gap, losing nearly $2.6 billion in research dollars. The Air Force would lose up to $1.4 billion in research, test, development and evaluation dollars. It would have to cancel 34 construction projects, and the measure would impact seven national security space launches. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

written by @Tam Lawrence In recent years, online fashion boutiques from China have gained significant popularity, offering seemingly affordable clothing options. However, beneath the allure of low prices lie several concerns that warrant our attention. It's worth noting that these companies often target black communities with their inexpensive fabrics, unlined garments, and disposable apparel. The question arises: are we inadvertently supporting businesses that don't reciprocate the support?One striking aspect is the lack of substantial business interaction between China and African Americans. Despite outsourcing billions of dollars to support Chinese families, their country, and business ventures, it's important to recognize that China does not actively engage in business with African Americans. This raises questions about the equitable nature of this economic exchange.To shed light on the scale of this issue, let's consider real data that reflects the growth of these online Chinese boutiques. Shein, an ultra-fast-fashion retailer, is reportedly seeking a valuation of up to $90 billion in its U.S. initial public offering (IPO). Although the exact timing of the IPO remains uncertain due to market volatility, it's clear that Shein is aiming for substantial growth. Despite facing allegations of using forced labor, Shein expects to achieve a net income of $2.5 billion this year, a significant leap from $137 million in 2019.Furthermore, Shein has been expanding its presence by acquiring brands like British online retailer Missguided and exploring potential bids for established names like Topshop. The company's ambitious growth plans highlight its intention to become a major player in the global fashion industry.What's intriguing is the disparity between support from foreign entities and African Americans' spending habits. While it's less common to witness foreign individuals actively supporting African American endeavors, African Americans consistently contribute more of their hard-earned money, benefiting those who are less inclined to do business with them. It's essential to recognize this imbalance and consider its long-term implications.Shopping for cheap clothing from platforms like Shein or XplusWear.com can ultimately cost consumers more than they bargain for. These companies often offer no refunds or exchanges, leaving customers with subpar garments that fail to meet their expectations. To complicate matters further, some of these online stores strategically present themselves as U.S.-based businesses, making it challenging for consumers to discern their origins.Read Entire Article Visit Exposure Magazine https://iloveexposure.com/the-woes-of-shopping-for-fashion-online-with-companies-out-of-china/Contact TL@RLASSC.COM Media Partner: https://www.iloveexposure.com Media Partner: https://www.exposure-magazine.com Media Partner: https://www.exposureplustv.tvOffice: https://www.aartkingsleyllc.com #health #wakeyouraskupSupport the showContact TL@RLASSC.COM Media Partner: https://www.iloveexposure.com Media Partner: https://www.exposure-magazine.com Media Partner: https://www.exposureplustv.tvOffice: https://www.aartkingsleyllc.com #health #wakeyouraskup

Mortgage demand has fallen off a cliff, according to Black Knight's recent Mortgage Monitor Report. With affordability hitting new lows and mortgage rates still rising, home buyers have simply given up on buying a house any time soon. Mortgage applications are now forty-five percent below pre-pandemic levels, and something BIG will have to change for buyers to jump back into the market—are lower home prices the answer? To explain the Mortgage Monitor Report's most recent findings, we brought on Black Knight's Andy Walden. Andy has the most recent home buyer, mortgage rate, foreclosure, and delinquency data to share. We'll talk about the buying power that's been wiped out of the market, why mortgage applications fell off a cliff, rising unaffordability and whether or not it'll force foreclosures, and the real estate markets with the most potential for home price growth. Andy even gives his 2024 housing market forecast with some eerie warnings about what could happen to home prices as we reach an “inflection point” in the market and enter the traditionally slower winter season. In This Episode We Cover: Why mortgage originations are falling faster than ever before (and what this means for home prices) Andy's Q4 housing market forecast and how to tell where prices are headed Foreclosures, delinquencies, and why “distressed sellers” aren't flooding the market Why investors have “backed off” the housing market waiting for mortgage rates to dip Regional housing markets that could see the best (and worst) home price performance  The rising popularity of assumable mortgages and the massive downside to doing one of these deals And So Much More!

(9/18/23) Markets closed down a little more than 1% on Friday, taking out the 20- and 50-DMA. Friday was strange due to the largest options expirations on record: A lot of stocks had to be sold and there were a lot of puts on companies that had top be rolled over, creating an outsized level of volatility on Friday. Markets are now solidly sitting on support atop a consolidation pattern we've been in for a few weeks, after grinding through this seasonably weak period of the year. Markets will be positioning ahead of this week's Fed meeting, so additional weakness over the next several days would not be surprising.

It is said that money talks...

This is the conclusion of our two-part discussion with Dr. Jared A. Ball on the release of the second edition of his book The Myth and Propaganda of Black Buying Power. Part one can be found here. Once again, Jared Ball is the host of imixwhatilike and co-host of Earn Your Liberation and the RemiX Morning Show over on Black Power Media.  He works as Professor of Africana and Communication Studies at Morgan State University in Baltimore, MD. His decades of journalism, media, writing, and political work can be found at imixwhatilike.org.  In this part of the discussion we talk a little bit about hip hop and its modern relation to corporations and social media influencers. Content warning on that conversation especially for fans of modern hip hop music, as Jared Ball and Jared Ware both turn into old men shaking our fists at clouds and telling children to get off our lawns during that portion of the discussion. Jared Ball talks a bit more about how nonsensical it is to confront his work around “Black Buying Power” with a demand for an alternative solution. From there we get into the After Party concept that Dr. Ball has shared on his platforms over the years, and get into some discussion of Green Party politics and Dr. Cornel West's campaign. All in all it's a pretty free ranging conversation where we discuss a variety of different topics. We had a lot of fun doing it and we hope you enjoy it half as much as we enjoyed recording it.  We did record it a month ago back on June 20th. So you'll note at the end we referenced the launch party for the second edition, which unfortunately we weren't able to get this episode out in time to help promote, but we will link a recording of that in the show notes. We will link to some other places folks can learn more about the book, as well as a link to where you can purchase a copy.  We do want to mention that Black Power Media did get a strike from YouTube for their H8 Awards so their new content this week will be on Twitch, Twitter and Facebook, until they have served their 7 day sentence for that. You can also find all of the relevant links and information at blackpowermedia.org including ways to donate and support their work.

In this episode we welcome Dr. Jared A. Ball back to the podcast. Of course we know Jared Ball as a host of imixwhatilike and co-host of Earn Your Liberation and the RemiX Morning Show over on Black Power Media.  In addition he is of course Professor of Africana and Communication Studies at Morgan State University in Baltimore, MD. His decades of journalism, media, writing, and political work can be found at imixwhatilike.org.  He has previously joined us for multiple discussions which we will link in the show notes. For this conversation we talk about the newly released second edition of his book The Myth and Propaganda of Black Buying Power. We should note that we do have a previous conversation on the first edition and if you missed that it would be helpful to understand the work more holistically. Today we talk about some of the new sections in the second edition, including the chapter on Cryptocurrency and Cryptoganda targeted at Black audiences. We also talk to him about what it has been like to confront various promoters of the concept of Black Buying Power in the promotion of the book.  There will be a second half of this conversation which we will release later this week where we wrap up our discussion of the second edition and get into some other topics. We will link to some other places folks can learn more about the book, as well as a link to where you can purchase a copy.  And if you like what we do of course as always, support our ability to continue to do it.

 Don't miss this fascinating conversation w/RC Williams of SherlocExposes.com ! Elites in the federal government hate cash because they hate Americans who love freedom. Cash provides privacy, an easy way for individuals to settle debts or sell goods without big govt intrusion; cash can't be taxed or tracked, preventing Uncle Sam from getting involved in petty transactions. On the other hand, CBDCs allow big govt to track and control every penny you earn, save and spend. They're also a powerful tool for politicians to take and redistribute your hard earned paycheck as they see fit. CBDCs allow centralized govt controlled banks to impose negative interest rates where you essentially pay the bank for holding your money! Not to mention, CBDCs have an expiration date and enable ESG scores to be imposed on you if you don't bow down to Uncle Sam.

In this episode of BRAVE COMMERCE, Sara Wilson and Michelle Goad, the minds behind The Brand Yearbook, explore the intriguing world of Gen Z and their influence on branding and media.The Brand Yearbook story begins when Michelle, who was then the GM of Gen Z Innovation at Nike, was working on the launch of Nike's NbG and brought on Sara as a consultant for the launch's community & content strategy. The two found themselves constantly connecting to celebrate the successes and interesting plays made by companies looking to win over Gen Z. Their enthusiasm led them to share their perspectives through The Brand Yearbook in order for others to learn what was working and why.Throughout the episode, Sara and Michelle emphasize crucial themes for brands to consider when targeting Gen Z, including nostalgia and an emphasis on creative, content-centric strategies. They delve into the changing concept of luxury, exemplified by brands like Erewhon, and discuss how self-expression on social media platforms such as TikTok fuels the desire for distinctive, identity-driven products.Sara and Michelle additionally explain how the transition from transactional websites to platforms centered on content and community is fueled by the generation's desire for deeper relationships between the branding they observe and the products they buy.Key Takeaways:The growing popularity of social media platforms emphasizes the need for products to be more expressive and uniqueTo appeal to Gen Z, brands should implement innovative, content-based strategiesThe transition from transaction-oriented websites to content and community-focused platforms demonstrates content's vital role in influencing consumer behavior Hosted on Acast.
