What does it take to thrive in B2B sales when margins are thin and the stakes are high? Brian Rooney, President of Callas Kingsley Electrical Sales, has built his career on a simple but powerful premise: B2B is really P2P — person to person.In this episode, Brian explains why the manufacturers' rep model is uniquely positioned amid the current AI technology race, and how the surge in data center infrastructure is creating a gold rush moment for the electrical industry. As major tech companies race to expand AI data centers and electricity demand hits unprecedented levels, Brian sees the electrical industry as the picks and shovels of this generation's resource rush.Brian pulls back the curtain on how the rep model actually works, why distributors rely on reps for specialized product expertise across thousands of SKUs, and how Callas Kingsley approaches long-term relationships with both manufacturers and distributors. It's a model built entirely on trust, and Brian makes a compelling case for why that's more valuable now than ever.

Easy Italian: Learn Italian with real conversations | Imparare l'italiano con conversazioni reali

Le banconote dell'euro cambieranno nei prossimi anni, e la cosa più sorprendente è un'altra: il disegno si può votare. Raffaele e Matteo guardano i due temi in gara — i personaggi famosi della cultura europea oppure i fiumi e gli uccelli — e scoprono che sulle banconote di oggi non c'è nessun edificio vero. Nella seconda parte si scende a Genova, la tappa italiana della crociera: i caruggi, la Lanterna, una bomba che non è esplosa e un piatto di vetro verde che qualcuno chiama Santo Graal. Trascrizione interattiva e Vocab Helper Support Easy Italian and get interactive transcripts, live vocabulary and bonus content: easyitalian.fm/membership Parole della settimana il faccione — Una faccia grande. In italiano il suffisso -one rende le cose più grandi: da faccia nasce faccione. Si usa spesso per i ritratti grandi, quelli sui manifesti o, appunto, sui soldi. Nell'episodio è la posizione di Raffaele su come devono essere fatte le banconote: "sono vecchia scuola, sono abituato ad avere i faccioni delle persone sui soldi". English: a big face; here, a large portrait il sorteggio — Quando si sceglie a caso, senza decidere, per esempio con i bigliettini o con i numeri. Il verbo è sorteggiare, ma nell'episodio Raffaele usa anche estrarre e pescare. A Genova serviva per una cosa molto seria: decidere quale famiglia doveva ospitare un re o un papa. English: a draw, a drawing of lots Note dell'episodio È metà agosto e si sente: Raffaele ha le finestre spalancate in una città mezza vuota, Matteo si è chiuso in una stanza al piano di sopra perché a casa ci sono ospiti con bambini, e spera di non diventare "una pizza" con il sole che batte sui vetri. Prima di cominciare, una nota per Cristina: il suo messaggio vocale è arrivato ma non si sente niente, è un messaggio muto — e siccome il podcast è solo audio, non c'è modo di capirlo. Per favore, Cristina, rimandacelo. Poi si parla di soldi, con una precisazione subito corretta: "non parliamo dei nostri soldi... o meglio, parliamo dei nostri soldi. Dell'aspetto dei nostri soldi". Le banconote in euro cambieranno nei prossimi anni e la Banca Centrale Europea lascia votare il disegno. È questa la parte che stupisce Matteo: "sono stupefatto quasi dall'Unione Europea". I temi in gara sono due, e non è ancora stato scelto niente. Il primo sono i personaggi famosi della cultura europea. Il secondo è la natura, e in particolare i fiumi e gli uccelli: l'idea è bella, perché in Europa un fiume nasce in un Paese, ne attraversa altri e finisce in mare in un altro ancora, quindi unisce invece di dividere, e gli uccelli migratori fanno la stessa cosa. Raffaele però non riesce a immaginarseli nel portafoglio: gli uccelli si somigliano troppo, "sarebbe difficile dire 'il 5 euro è quello dove c'è il picchio, mentre invece il 10 euro è quello in cui c'è il martin pescatore'" — e Matteo, che è "pro uccelli", risponde che è un ottimo modo per imparare. Il rischio, dice Raffaele, è ripetere l'errore di adesso: sulle banconote di oggi ci sono archi e ponti in sei stili, dal classico all'Art Nouveau, e sono tutti edifici inventati, così nessun Paese poteva sentirsi escluso. Il risultato? "Se chiedi all'uomo della strada cosa è rappresentato sul 5 euro, ti dice 'boh, un edificio'". Se invece vincesse il primo tema, le facce sarebbero sei: Maria Callas sul 5, Beethoven sul 10, Marie Curie sul 20, Cervantes sul 50, Leonardo da Vinci sul 100 e, sul 200, un nome che i due non conoscevano: Bertha von Suttner. Tre donne e tre uomini, e quasi tutti appartengono a due Paesi insieme — Callas nasce cittadina americana da famiglia greca e diventa italiana, Curie è polacca naturalizzata francese, "più europea che francese o polacca". Von Suttner è stata la prima donna a vincere il Premio Nobel per la pace e ha scritto Giù le armi nel 1889: "non ha portato bene, perché dopo sono scoppiate due guerre mondiali". "Ci ha provato." Con Leonardo arriva anche un quiz sulla lira: su quale banconota era? Non sulle 1.000 — quello era Marco Polo, dice Raffaele, ma non ne è sicuro — e nemmeno sulle 10.000: era sulle 50.000. Le monete, invece, non cambiano: ne parleranno un'altra volta. Nella seconda parte si scende a Genova, la tappa italiana della crociera della settimana scorsa. Matteo ci è stato due volte e la trova molto simile a Napoli; il dispiacere è lo stesso per tutti e due, la strada sopraelevata davanti al mare, "come se ci fosse una cicatrice in mezzo", anche se nessuno dei due vuole girare il dito nella piaga dei genovesi. Poi però c'è tutto il resto: il porto industriale da una parte e dall'altra il porto antico rifatto da Renzo Piano, i palazzi con i portici, la Lanterna che è il simbolo della città, e i caruggi, cioè i vicoli stretti e pieni di vita del centro storico. Nella Cattedrale di San Lorenzo, a strisce bianche e nere, ci sono tre storie in una: le ceneri di San Giovanni Battista ("ce l'hanno tutti", commenta Matteo), il Sacro Catino, un piatto di vetro verde di duemila anni fa che secondo alcuni è il Santo Graal, e una bomba della Seconda Guerra Mondiale caduta lì dentro e mai esplosa — l'originale è stato disinnescato, dentro la chiesa c'è una copia. C'è anche la casa di Cristoforo Colombo, che era genovese. E si chiude con le Strade Nuove e i Palazzi dei Rolli, patrimonio UNESCO, costruiti tra Cinquecento e Seicento con i soldi dei mercanti: siccome non c'era un palazzo solo per gli ospiti importanti, le famiglie erano divise in categorie e quando arrivava un re, un imperatore o un papa se ne estraeva una a sorteggio. Da quel momento quella famiglia ospitava a nome di tutta la città. È anche il periodo in cui la Repubblica di Genova diventa quasi un'oligarchia. Nella sala VIP si continua con l'Acquario. Trascrizione Matteo: [0:24] Buongiorno. Raffaele: [0:26] Buongiorno a te, Matteo. Come stai e dove stai? Matteo: [0:30] Tutto bene e sono dove ero settimana scorsa, ma al piano di sopra. Raffaele: [0:39] Alla ricerca di un po d'aria fresca? Matteo: [0:42] No, non proprio: alla ricerca di uno spazio in cui posso registrare senza disturbare, mettiamola così, mettiamola al contrario.

143. Cuando Decides Por Miedo En Lugar De Por Convicción

Vida Estoica

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 12, 2026 21:50


No todas las decisiones tomadas por miedo parecen cobardes. Algunas parecen prudentes, responsables e incluso sensatas.Aceptas algo porque temes perder una oportunidad. Permaneces donde estás porque no sabes qué ocurrirá si te marchas. Callas porque temes provocar un conflicto. Renuncias antes de intentar porque anticipas el fracaso. Eliges lo seguro no porque realmente lo consideres correcto, sino porque cualquier alternativa despierta incertidumbre.Y entonces ocurre algo difícil de detectar: el miedo empieza a hablar utilizando la voz de la razón.El problema no consiste en sentir miedo. El miedo cumple una función y puede advertirnos de riesgos reales. El problema comienza cuando dejamos de examinarlo y le permitimos convertirse en el criterio principal de nuestras decisiones.Desde una perspectiva estoica, una decisión debería nacer del juicio: de distinguir qué depende de nosotros, qué es correcto hacer y qué clase de persona queremos ser frente a las circunstancias. La convicción no significa actuar sin temor. Significa que el temor no obtiene automáticamente la última palabra.Cuando decides únicamente para evitar perder, sufrir, equivocarte o decepcionar, comienzas a organizar tu existencia alrededor de aquello que no quieres que ocurra. Ya no avanzas hacia algo; simplemente huyes de diferentes amenazas.Y una vida construida desde la evasión puede terminar siendo extremadamente limitada.El miedo puede conservar una relación terminada, un trabajo que te consume, una identidad que ya no reconoces o una rutina que dejó de tener sentido. Puede hacerte confundir estabilidad con inmovilidad y prudencia con renuncia.La pregunta importante no es si tienes miedo.Es si tomarías la misma decisión si ese miedo desapareciera durante unos minutos.Esa diferencia revela mucho.Porque actuar por convicción tampoco garantiza resultados favorables. Puedes decidir correctamente y perder. Puedes actuar con valentía y equivocarte. Puedes sostener tus principios y enfrentar consecuencias difíciles.La filosofía estoica nunca prometió controlar los resultados. Su propuesta es más exigente: asumir responsabilidad por el juicio desde el cual actuamos.En este episodio de Vida Estoica reflexionamos sobre la diferencia entre protegerte y obedecer al miedo, sobre las decisiones que parecen racionales pero nacen de la inseguridad y sobre la necesidad de recuperar una dirección interior antes de permitir que la incertidumbre diseñe nuestra vida.No necesitas dejar de sentir miedo para decidir mejor.Necesitas impedir que el miedo decida quién vas a ser.Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/VidaEstoica⁠WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaC8jMeLo4hiC8664i02Síguenos en nuestras redes sociales: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vidaestoicaoficial⁠Facebook: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/VidaEstoicaOficial⁠Tik Tok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@vidaestoicaoficial⁠ Hosted on Acast.

State Senator Mike Halpin says Illinois' new budget includes added support for school lunch programs and a three-month food assistance bridge for families losing federal benefits. Speaking on Wake Up Tri-Counties, Halpin also defended new taxes on digital advertising and social media platforms, saying the revenue could help fund services including mental health care. He said higher education funding remains a top priority, especially for rural students and schools like Western Illinois University. Halpin also discussed efforts to recover back wages, ease substitute teacher shortages, limit eminent domain for CO₂ pipelines, and protect vulnerable adults under guardianship. State Senator Mike Halpin praised three newly signed Illinois laws that strengthen support for military service members and veterans. The legislation aims to boost Illinois National Guard recruitment, help student service members return to college after military leave, and expand access to innovative mental health treatments for veterans. Halpin highlighted Senate Bill 3926, which moves the Breakthrough Therapies for Veteran Suicide Prevention Program Advisory Council to the Illinois Department of Public Health, where it will help expand access to emerging therapies, improve provider training, enhance patient safety, and promote public awareness. He also applauded Senate Bill 3737, requiring colleges and universities to promptly readmit students returning from military service, and Senate Bill 3818, which encourages Illinois National Guard recruitment through a peer referral incentive program. All three laws take effect January 1, 2027. His office can be reached at 309-558-3612. Mike Halpin serves as Illinois State Senator for the 36th District, representing most of Rock Island County and portions of Mercer, Henry, Knox, McDonough, and Warren Counties. An attorney and former State Representative, Halpin previously worked for Congressman Lane Evans, assisting constituents and helping veterans secure military honors. He later earned his law degree from the University of Illinois and became a partner at McCarthy, Callas, & Feeney, P.C., where he focuses on labor and municipal law. Halpin continues to advocate for veterans through his work with Bridging the Gap: Stand Down for Homeless Veterans, providing legal assistance to those in need. During his time in the Illinois House, he supported balanced budgets and sponsored legislation allowing schools to stock undesignated glucagon to help save children's lives.

We are quickly approaching the third anniversary of the death of Renata Scotto, and that sad commemoration, combined with my desire to produce an episode celebrating Opera Queens, prompted this episode, which features a rare live LP that I once owned a few decades ago and recently returned to my collection. It features live performances of “our diva” from the stage of Carnegie Hall on two different occasions in the mid- to late-1970s: the first, a gala concert on September 12, 1975 with Eve Queler leading the Opera Orchestra of New York on which Scotto performed Rossini (the bravura rondo from Armida) and Donizetti (the mad scene from Anna Bolena). She also sang “Tu che invoco” from Spontini's La Vestale on that concert, and though it was not included on that record, I have unearthed a live recording of that exact performance, which is also included on the episode. The second concert featured on that LP took place on October 31, 1979 under the baton of Lorin Maazel leading the Cleveland Orchestra, and includes a rare performance of Scotto singing from Cherubini's Medea as well as the mad scene from Bellini's Il pirata. In all of these, Scotto is in sterling vocal form, which allows her to fully explore the expressive bel canto possibilities of this music. Since Scotto was also widely accused of being anti-Callas, I also dispute that view with some comments that Scotto made in an interview about Callas's importance as the high priestess of bel canto. I also intone a few more nasty reviews and comments from those who do not hold Scotto in the same high esteem that I (we!) do. For I, too, am one of those opera queens that we are celebrating today. I just happen to have better taste than those that are dissing our diva! Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song.

Our hosts start with their initial thoughts on Clorinde's character design after the release of the Fontaine teaser, how those feelings changed upon meeting her, and how we feel about her and Wriothesley's dynamic. Afterwards, we'll walk through Clorinde's story quest, discussing her love of table top games, praising her voice actor, and digging up dirt on her chaotic upbringing by a Marechaussee Hunter.

Why were Callas and Limits invited to the Bob Pompeani golf outing and Joe Starkey was not? Also Poni and Mueller were not invited to play golf today. Limits was using clubs from the 1800s. The Pirates were swept by the Atlanta Braves over the weekend. Poni says it is the fault of Ben Cherington. The Pirates now have 14 blown saves this season and have done nothing to address their faltering bullpen. Poni says he is sick of hearing about the "three starters in a playoff series, they have a chance". The bullpen has blown it and Mitch Keller is too inconsistent.

Poni says he is sick of hearing about the "three starters in a playoff series, they have a chance". The bullpen has blown it and Mitch Keller is too inconsistent. Hockey Talk! Red Wings star Dylan Larkin requested a trade and submitted three different teams on his "trade list": Minnesota, Vegas, and Florida. What would it take for the Penguins to outbid those teams? Noah Hiles joins the show! Poni asks if being swept by the Braves is cause for concern for Noah. Noah says he is not worried overall, but still has concerns about the state of the pitching staff. Noah brings up the fact that the Pirates fired Oscar Morin. Noah says multiple starting rotation members indicated they could perform better with a different pitching coach.

More than 40 years after her death, the legend of Maria Callas, "La Divina Assoluta," remains unsurpassed. Much has been written about her sensational opera career and fraught private life, from her definitive mastery of iconic opera roles to her love affairs and tantrums. The prototype for the 20th century celebrity diva, Callas emblematizes the cliche of tormented talent - genius in the ring with catastrophe. Her extraordinary voice, in particular, has become an object of cult-like adoration and cultural significance almost with a life of its own: as fetish object, as sophisticated sonic signifier, and most recently, as the lifeblood for a Callas hologram. Such adoration is not without consequences. When Callas is transformed into a vessel for such transcendent magic, it overshadows what is perhaps her most superhuman ability - the masterful technique she deployed to shape and craft her astounding instrument. Singing bodies are working bodies, enacting an intimate and complex form of artistic labor and cultural signification. Using one of Callas's first recital recordings from 1954, Maria Callas's Lyric and Coloratura Arias (Bloomsbury, 2021) envisions each aria as a lens to examine various aspects of vocalization and cultural reception of the feminized voice in both classical and pop culture, from Homer's Sirens to Star Trek. With references to works by Marina Abramovic, Charles Baudelaire, Michel Chion, Wayne Koestenbaum, Greil Marcus, and Farah Jasmine Griffin, as well as films by Pier Paolo Pasolini, Jonathan Demme, and Rainer Werner Fassbinder, each chapter explores phenomena unique to the singing voice, including the operatic screaming point, the politics of listening, and the singing simulacrum. Ginger Dellenbaugh is a musician and historian who has written and lectured on music and politics, vernacular notation systems, and the cultural history of the voice. A trained opera singer, she performed for over a decade in Europe and the United States. Ginger is currently a lecturer at The New School in New York, USA and completing a PhD in musicology at Yale University, USA. She lives in New York City and Vienna, Austria.
