Dr. Audrey Kershaw returns to chat with Dr. Linda Bluestein and demystify wisdom tooth extraction, appliances for TMJ disorder, and everyday oral health habits for people with EDS/HSD. We cover when third molars should be removed (and when they shouldn't), why local anesthetic can fail in some patients, how to approach dental procedures when CCI (craniocervical instability) is a concern, and what truly drives gum disease vs “EDS-specific” issues. We also address periodontal EDS (a rare subtype), toothpaste choices (fluoride vs hydroxyapatite vs chelators), and the surprisingly powerful habit of “spit, don't rinse.” Stay to the end for practical Hypermobility Hacks you can implement tonight. Takeaways Is wisdom teeth surgery happening too often… or dangerously too late? What if the biggest risk during oral surgery isn't the tooth—but how your neck is positioned? Why do some people with EDS feel every cut and drill—even after “getting numb”? Could one cheap hack—“spit, don't rinse”—protect your teeth better than $30 toothpaste? Are sharks hiding the secret to stronger enamel in your bathroom cabinet? Find the episode transcript here.

Another week, another rulebook for India’s digital economy this time, a competition code. The Digital Competition Bill (DCB) would flip enforcement from ex-post litigation to ex-ante guardrails for “systemically significant” platforms, banning self-preferencing, data misuse against business users, coercive tying, and stealth blocks on interoperability under the CCI, not a new super-regulator. It’s meant to supplement the Competition Act, not replace it. In this episode Kazim Rizvi, Founding Director of The Dialogue, a public policy think-tank, tells Anirban Chowdhury that India may not need a new statute now: first test the 2023 Competition Act amendments (settlements/commitments), build capacity, and let case outcomes prove speed and effectiveness citing the CCI’s recent 12-month Google Android TV matter as evidence that ex-post can work with resources.He also brings data from The Dialogue’s survey of MSMEs using digital platforms to show the rules may hobble Indian digital-first firms. Ex-ante code now or sharper ex-post tools first?

TehachaPod's 'Eye on the Capitol' is an informative look at State and National issues impacting your life in Tehachapi. On this episode, we take a look at over 18 bills introduced during this latest State Legislative session to reform the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as a result of development opponents weaponizing the process to block commercial and residential developments over the last several years. The result? A reduction in local control and a quicker approval process for many projects meeting specific criteria minus much of the previous environmental review. Plus, the state announces the next prison closure and California and Texas square off over mid-term redistricting well outside of the norms of the normal redistricting process.
This week as the negotiations for a Global Plastic Treaty fail in Geneva, Switzerland over a cap on plastic production, we look at the undue influence of the fossil fuel and plastic industries. False solutions to the climate crisis, and now the plastic pollution crisis, are part of an industry playbook to misinform the public and deflect from actual solutions. In the case of plastics, it's promoting plastic recycling that doesn't actually work. In our latest, we talk with researchers Davis Allen and Rebecca John to discuss industry strategies to undermine any progress on curbing plastic pollution. Bios//Rebecca John is a Research Fellow at the Climate Investigations Center. She is also a freelance journalist and award-winning documentary film maker. As a Producer and Director of the acclaimed “Extreme Oil” / “Curse of Oil” series for PBS /BBC her work was awarded a Cine Golden Eagle for News Analysis. Other award-winning and nominated series and films include “Churchill” for PBS & ITV, “The Secret World of Richard Nixon” for The History Channel/BBC and “Ambush In Mogadishu” for PBS Frontline/ BBC (winner of the Edward R. Murrow Overseas Press Club of America ‘Best Documentary on Foreign Affairs Award'). Davis Allen is a Senior Investigative Researcher at the Center for Climate Integrity, where he identifies and compiles evidence of the fossil fuel industry's historical — and ongoing — deception. Prior to joining CCI, Davis completed a PhD in History at Case Western Reserve University.-----------------------------------------------------------Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by MoodyLinks//+ "‘Maddening' Proof Plastics Industry Knew Recycling Was False Solution in 1974, New Document Shows" (https://bit.ly/45QWEHE)+ "The Fraud of Plastic" (https://bit.ly/4lt3Xd6)+ Plastic pollution talks fail as negotiators in Geneva reject draft treaties (https://bit.ly/45xljzF)
This episode brings together our CCI and contentious regulatory teams to consider the impact of the Failure to Prevent Fraud offence on financial institutions. Jon Ford, Elizabeth Head and Ally Fitzgerald explore the risk areas that financial institutions may be exposed to as well as why financial institutions may be at an increased risk of enforcement in comparison to other organisations. They also provide insight into the steps that the HSF Kramer team have seen financial institutions take to prepare themselves for the September implementation date.

In this episode of The First Day from The Fundraising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., sits down with Muhsin Hassan, Managing Director at Lever for Change, to unpack the power, and practicality, of nonprofit collaboration. Drawing from his role advising the Community Collaboration Initiative led by the Muslim Philanthropy Initiative at the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, Hassan explains why partnerships aren't just nice-to-have, they're mission multipliers. From maximizing impact during economic downturns to sparking innovation across issue areas, collaboration can create better ideas, stronger fundraising, and more efficient service delivery. Hassan shares how the initiative brought together 21 Muslim-led nonprofits from across the U.S., ranging from local to national reach, to explore shared solutions. The three-year effort wasn't donor-driven from the top down, but intentionally designed to listen to community needs and prioritize equity among partners. Common threads emerged between seemingly different missions: healthcare access, education, civic engagement, and refugee support leading to big-picture strategies like “one-stop shop” service models for new Americans. And yes, there was a built-in incentive: each participating organization received a $250,000 grant to implement their collaborative plans. The conversation digs into what makes collaborations work: intentional design, time to build trust, and intermediaries who handle logistics so nonprofits can focus on the work. The CCI team acted as that connective tissue, setting agendas, facilitating conversations, and ensuring equity between grantees and donors. This created space for candid dialogue, something that doesn't always happen in traditional philanthropy, and fostered genuine partnerships rather than compliance-driven alliances. Challenges? Of course. Some organizations realized the timing wasn't right and bowed out gracefully, underscoring the need for flexibility and openness to think beyond one's own program lane. Hassan closes with advice for any nonprofit, regardless of cause area or cultural context; there are always lessons to learn from others. Whether you share a target population or simply share the nonprofit experience, collaboration offers unexpected insights and fresh approaches. Skeptics often leave such partnerships with new allies, new knowledge, and stronger strategies. The key is creating opportunities for cross-sector dialogue, maintaining equity among all players, and giving collaborations the time, and resources, to thrive. The full white paper, Collaboration in the U.S. Muslim Nonprofit Sector: Lessons from the Community Collaboration Initiative, is available at the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy's Muslim Philanthropy Initiative page.

After being off the sourcing radar for almost a decade, suddenly everyone is starting to talk about Pakistan.The combination of brands looking to diversify sourcing - and the benefits of having a the entire supply chain from fiber to finished garment in country - is putting a shine on Pakistan and boosting it up the sourcing tier list.But Pakistan is more than simply another one of the countries where brands used to source until other places became more attractive. To learn more about the massive opportunities in Pakistan, I reached out to my good friend Will Bettendorf, Director South Asia and Supply Chain Marketing, at Cotton Council International. If anyone knows the real opportunities in a country it's Will. He's spent over two decades working hands on with most of Asia biggest mills and manufacturers . So he not only knows Pakistan, he's able to accurately compare and contrast the county with all of the other key sourcing nations.Recently I had the opportunity to join him and his team at a CCI event in Pakistan where I was able to meet some of the industry's leading manufacturers and buying offices learn about the strategic advantages the country offers - especially as we face a more complex sourcing environment.In this podcast Will shares his views on why Pakistan is poised to be the go-to place for sustainable apparel sourcing.USEFUL LINKS:Learn more about the US Cotton Trust Protocol: https://trustuscotton.org/Learn more about US Cotton: https://cottonusa.orgConnect with Will Bettendorf on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/will-bettendorf-61455a5/Visit A Seat at The Table's website at https://seat.fm

Este episódio analisa possíveis saídas para o campo democrático diante do avanço da extrema-direita no Brasil e no mundo.O avanço da extrema-direita com tendências autoritárias tem causado perplexidade no campo democrático, em especial, nos setores mais progressistas. Forças políticas tradicionalmente associadas à esquerda parecem incapazes de se opor de maneira eficiente e duradoura ao avanço de figuras como Donald Trump, Nayib Bukele e Jair Bolsonaro.Para tentar entender o que está por trás desse fenômeno e quais são as saídas para os setores democráticos e de esquerda, conversamos com quatro analistas políticos dividimos o episódio em três partes.Na primeira, são apresentados alguns dos fatores que que ajudaram a extrema direita a se estabelecer. Na segunda, o foco é na criação de um sistema paralelo de comunicação e no uso da desinformação como arma. E, na última, são apresentadas propostas para o futuro da esquerda e a manutenção da democracia.Mergulhe mais fundoMenos Marx, mais Mises: O liberalismo e a nova direita no Brasil (link para compra)Limites da democracia: De junho de 2013 ao governo Bolsonaro (link para compra)O pobre de direita: A vingança dos bastardos (link para compra)Episódios relacionados#71: Por que votam no mito?#79: Os pobres de direita e o futuro da política#126: O futuro(?) com TrumpEntrevistados do episódioJessé SouzaSociólogo e escritor.

Intro: (Natalie) Tonight, we're excited to welcome an author and content creator with an incredible journey. At 16, he faced severe, undiagnosed symptoms that left him floor-bound for over a year, stumping doctors. Frustrated, he turned to self-education.

Sarah and Samantha discuss how Sarah, having not known the language at first and experiencing the cultural shift of the move, decided to document her experiences on TikTok sparking discussions on the cultural differences. Sarah's documentation of her life and work have given her a unique voice as a content creator, as she looks at her own perspective shifts in witty and authentic ways. The pair also discuss how diving into the role of influencer has given her new career goals and how she plans to integrate her creativity into her influencer content. They wrap up the interview with some poignant advice from Sarah regarding taking new leaps in life and how new experiences can shape you, just as her choices in career and living in Paris have shaped her own development as a person.
