The primary objectives of criminal law include deterrence (general and specific), incapacitation, retribution, rehabilitation, and defining societal norms. Unlike civil law, which aims to compensate a wronged party, criminal law operates on behalf of the state to prosecute and punish wrongful acts in the communal interest.Felonies are typically punishable by death or imprisonment for more than one year, while misdemeanors are lesser offenses usually punishable by a fine or incarceration for less than one year. Murder is an example of a malum in se crime because it violates fundamental moral standards, whereas a traffic violation is an example of a malum prohibitum crime because its illegality stems from statute.General intent crimes require the intent to perform the physical act itself, such as intentionally striking someone in battery. Specific intent crimes require an additional subjective intent to bring about a specific result, such as in theft, where the defendant must intend to permanently deprive another of their property.A state generally has jurisdiction to prosecute crimes that either occur within its borders or produce harmful effects within its territory. Concurrent jurisdiction arises when more than one sovereign has the legal authority to prosecute the same conduct. The doctrine of dual sovereignty under the Double Jeopardy Clause allows both federal and state governments to prosecute the same individual for the same conduct without violating double jeopardy protections, as they are separate sovereigns.Actus reus refers to the physical component of a crime, which is a voluntary act or a qualifying omission. An omission can constitute actus reus when there is a legal duty to act, the person is physically capable of acting, and they fail to do so, such as a parent deliberately withholding food from their child.Recklessness is a subjective mental state involving the conscious disregard of a substantial and unjustifiable risk; the defendant must be aware of the risk. Negligence is an objective standard that applies when a person fails to perceive a substantial and unjustifiable risk that a reasonable person would have recognized, regardless of actual awareness.Strict liability crimes are offenses where no mental state is required; the mere commission of the act is sufficient for liability. These types of crimes are most commonly found in regulatory and public welfare areas such as food safety or statutory rape. For example, a vendor selling contaminated food may be held strictly liable regardless of intent.The principle of concurrence requires that the actus reus (the physical act) and the mens rea (the mental state) coincide in time. This is generally required because criminal liability is predicated on the idea that the wrongful conduct was accompanied by a culpable state of mind.Factual cause, or "but-for" causation, means that the harm would not have occurred but for the defendant's act. Legal cause, or proximate cause, addresses whether the result is closely enough connected to the act to hold the defendant criminally responsible, considering factors like foreseeability. An intervening cause might break the chain of legal causation if it is unforeseeable and superseding, meaning it was not a natural or probable consequence of the defendant's actions.A principal is the primary actor who commits the criminal act, while an accomplice is someone who aids, encourages, or assists the principal with the intent that the crime be committed. Accomplice liability requires both an act of assistance and the specific intent that the underlying crime be committed by the principal.
My podcast guests this week are longtime friend of the show Nigel Forrester and Victoria Middleton from Concurrent Technologies. Nigel, Victoria and I chat about the importance of rigorous testing in mission-critical systems, the details of Concurrent's mission-critical embedded computing solutions, and how Concurrent can help engineers determine what Intel processor board is best suited for your next design. Also this week, I check out the details of a new 3D printed electronics-free robot that can walk right off the 3D-printer!

Dit is de 219e aflevering van de Slimmer Presteren Podcast, over sport, onderzoek en innovatie. In deze aflevering hebben Gerrit en Jurgen het over:Slimmer presteren met de juiste krachttraining, volgens special guest Jeroen RietveltINLEIDING:Krachttraining is hot. Maar hoe pas je het slim toe als duursporter? In de aflevering van deze week schuift inspanningsfysioloog Jeroen Rietvelt aan om precies dat uit te leggen. Hij werkte met topsporters van Team Gold tot triatleten en deelt nu zijn inzichten met ons.Je hoort hoe kracht je efficiënter laat lopen of fietsen, welke timing echt uitmaakt, en waarom ook oudere sporters er baat bij hebben. En: hoe je thuis kunt trainen zonder sportschool.Vragen die in deze aflevering worden beantwoord: Wat is de meerwaarde van krachttraining voor duursporters?Volgens Jeroen helpt krachttraining je om efficiënter te bewegen en blessurevrij te blijven. Je traint niet alleen je spieren, maar ook de aansturing ervan. Het resultaat? Meer kracht met minder moeite – en dat betekent een lagere hartslag, betere houding en meer duurvermogen.Wanneer combineer je kracht en duur het beste in je schema?Niet alles tegelijk, zegt Jeroen. Vermijd zware kracht na een lange duurtraining. Werk liever in blokken: kracht in het laagseizoen, onderhoud in je piekseizoen. En plan voldoende herstel in, zodat je lichaam beide trainingsvormen goed verwerkt.Wat is ‘concurrent training' en waarom is het relevant?Concurrent training betekent dat kracht- en duurtraining elkaar kunnen tegenwerken als ze verkeerd gecombineerd worden. Jeroen legt uit dat het lichaam verschillende aanpassingssignalen krijgt. De oplossing? Slim plannen, de volgorde bewaken en zorgen dat je per sessie een duidelijke trainingsprikkel kiest.Zijn springvormen (plyometrie) nuttig voor hardlopers?Ja, maar alleen als je al een stevige krachtbasis hebt. Plyometrie zoals bounds of squat jumps verbetert je loopefficiëntie, zegt Jeroen. Je leert sneller kracht zetten en beter afzetten. Begin laagdrempelig en met goede techniek, en bouw het rustig op.Hoe kun je thuis effectief aan krachttraining doen?Je hebt echt geen gym nodig, benadrukt Jeroen. Met je lichaamsgewicht en een trap of rugzak kom je al ver. Denk aan split squats, excentrische lunges of eenpootsprongen. Belangrijkste is dat je het serieus neemt: goede vorm, progressieve belasting, en rust.Is krachttraining ook belangrijk voor oudere sporters?Juist dan, zegt Jeroen. Na je dertigste verlies je spiermassa als je niets doet. Met gerichte krachttraining houd je je botten, pezen en spieren sterk. En het mooie: het effect is ook op latere leeftijd nog prima te trainen, mits je volhoudt.Handige bronnen en links:Website van Jeroen Rietvelt: https://www.jeroenrietvelt.nl/Website van de Japanse schaatsploeg Team Gold: https://proudpeople.nl/team-gold-berichten/Review uit 2022 waarin de effecten van zware weerstandstraining en plyometrische oefeningen op verbetering van de loopefficiëntie zijn vergeleken: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36370207/Positieve versus negatieve effecten van weerstandstraining op de duurprestatie, hoe vind je de juiste balans?

La recomposition du marché des engrais ces dernières années a confirmé l'Arabie saoudite comme un acteur majeur du secteur. Le royaume saoudien a lancé une stratégie de diversification de son économie et les engrais en font partie. Le prince héritier, et dirigeant de facto, Mohammed ben Salman travaille à réduire la dépendance de son pays à la rente pétrolière et les engrais font partie des alternatives économiques privilégiées. L'Arabie saoudite a tous les ingrédients pour réussir dans le secteur : des roches phosphatées qui, même si elles ne sont pas d'excellente qualité, peuvent être enrichies, de l'énergie à domicile avec le gaz fourni par Saudi Aramco, et du soufre.À coup de milliards de dollars, les autorités ont soutenu des alliances entre Ma'aden, l'opérateur minier du pays, SABIC un acteur de la chimie industrielle et Mosaic, le spécialiste américain du secteur. Ces alliances ont abouti à la mise en place d'une chaîne de production saoudienne d'acide phosphorique, d'acide sulfurique et d'ammoniac, des composants essentiels pour la fabrication d'engrais, comme l'explique une étude du cabinet Global Sovereign Advisory (GSA). Exportations comparables à celles du Maroc ou des États-UnisSelon cette étude, la part de l'Arabie saoudite dans le commerce mondial d'engrais a presque triplé entre 2019 et 2023 pour atteindre près de 6 %, avec près de 7 millions de tonnes exportées, tous types d'engrais confondus.Le royaume est devenu le deuxième exportateur de DAP — après le Maroc —, un engrais utilisé pour tous les types de cultures, et entend rester incontournable sur le marché de ces engrais phosphatés dans les prochaines années. Selon l'étude de GSA, Ma'aden a signé en janvier trois contrats avec une filiale d'une entreprise chinoise pour étendre deux de ses complexes industriels et augmenter les capacités de production du pays.À lire aussiOù en est le marché africain des engrais, trois ans après le déclenchement de la guerre en Ukraine?10 % de part de marché en AfriqueL'Arabie saoudite produit essentiellement pour exporter et ne s'interdit pas d'aller sur le terrain de jeu de l'Office chérifien des phosphates (OCP), à savoir le continent africain. Son principal client est l'Afrique du Sud, mais le pays vend aussi au Kenya, à l'Algérie, à la Tanzanie et au Mozambique. Le royaume saoudien occupe 10 % de part de marché à ce jour en Afrique, selon l'étude de GSA, mais reste, pour des questions géographiques, implanté globalement en Afrique de l'Est, alors que le mastodonte marocain a su capter les acheteurs d'Afrique de l'Ouest.« L'OCP a évidemment encore plusieurs longueurs d'avance sur le continent, assure un négociant en engrais, mais l'Arabie saoudite est un concurrent qui monte et qui a les moyens d'être très compétitif grâce à ses matières premières ».Hors Afrique, l'Arabie saoudite exporte le gros de ses engrais dans les pays asiatiques, en Inde, en Thaïlande, au Bangladesh ou encore au Pakistan. Le Brésil est aussi un de ses clients importants.À lire aussiL'Arabie saoudite affirme publiquement ses ambitions minières

I denne episoden har vi Tommy Lundberg som gjest. Tommy jobber ved det Karolinska Institut som foreleser og forsker. Sammen med hans kolleger forsker han bl.a. på concurent training der han ser på hvordan utholdenhetstrening og styrketrening påvirker hverandre, og på transkjønns behandlingsmetoder og hvilke implikasjoner det kan ha for idrettslig deltakelse. Har 12 mnd testosteron-hemmende behandling en effekt på fysiske parametere som styrke og utholdenhet, slik at transkvinner og kvinner konkurrerer på samme grunnlag? Burde man løpe eller sykle dersom man vil unngå å miste styrke-"gainz"? Dette er et lite knippe av spørsmål som du vil få svar på i denne episoden!

His career has focused on supporting financial advisors, empowering them to succeed without the backing of big financial services companies. Nate is a leader for advisors looking to realize their potential as entrepreneurs. Nate shares Concurrent's key initiatives on building a robust investment team, enhancing technology integrations to make data actionable, and addressing the talent gap in the RIA industry through a centralized wealth advisory services team. Nate also explores the trend of RIAs seeking strategic partnerships while maintaining independence and brand autonomy. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:28) - Nate's money moment (07:05) - How playing football influenced Nate's leadership abilities (13:08) - Rebuilding a successful RIA platform (18:54) - What winning a championship means in the RIA space (21:51) - The talent gap in the RIA industry (27:41) - The best use of Nate's time and effort as CEO (34:41) - Concurrent's goals for the future (40:29) - The evolving dynamics of RIA partnerships (43:44) - Nate's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Teamwork and accountability are essential in business. The overall success of an organization depends on the role each member plays. Nate's journey from playing football to leading Concurrent illustrates the value of resilience, discipline, and commitment to team dynamics. Building a lifestyle business requires focusing on high-quality client relationships and maintaining exceptional service levels for growth and retention. RIAs increasingly seek strategic partnerships offering support and resources while preserving independence and brand autonomy. Quotes "Our best opportunity is to serve the end client and to serve the advisor, so we carry that duty and accountability all the way through." ~ Nate Lenz "If you're building a lifestyle business, that's great. But recognize that in doing so, your highest and best use is going to be serving your top clients, getting referrals out of those relationships because of what you're delivering, and making sure that you're upholding those service levels, retaining that business, and growing that business." ~ Nate Lenz "Not all RIAs are created equal. The ones that are investing in people and technology and supporting the advisors affiliated with them are going to continue to grow and scale because they're going to be best equipped to ultimately serve the end client." ~ Nate Lenz Links Nate Lenz of LinkedIn Concurrent Raymond James Credit Suisse Patrick Jinks Columbia University Scott Steele No Rules Rules Decentralized Leadership Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Produce game-changing content with Turncast Turncast helps your company grow by producing top-quality content and fostering transformative conversations.

Jason Jessup, CEO and Director of Magna Mining (TSX.V: NICU) (OTCQB: MGMNF), joins me to unpack a number of key Company milestones that were recently achieved and on tap in the near-term, as well as the work strategy developing for the balance of 2025, at the McCready West mine and multiple other prior-producing polymetallic mines and development projects located in Sudbury, Canada. We started off reflecting on the announcement February 19th that Magna Mining has been included in the 2025 TSX Venture 50 list. The TSX Venture 50™ is a ranking of the top fifty performing companies on the TSX Venture Exchange over the prior year. Jason remarks that it is a results of the solid work their team had executed on growing their asset base and value creation over the course of the last year. This leads us into a discussion on their transformative move into copper and nickel production that commences in March, once the KGHM International Ltd. Acquisition transaction closes at the end of this month on a portfolio of base metals assets located in the Sudbury Basin. These assets include: the producing McCreedy West copper mine, the past-producing Levack mine, the past-producing Podolsky mine, and past-producing Kirkwood mine, as well as the Falconbridge Footwall (81.41%), Northwest Foy (81.41%), North Range and Rand exploration assets. Jason outlines how he and multiple members of the Magna Mining team had worked at and operate the McCreedy West, Levack, and Podolsky Mines in the past when they were with FNX Mining, so that they are very familiar with these assets. While the current flagship will be the McCreedy West Mine, he also lays out the development pathway for bringing back into production the Levack Mine in 2026, and the Podolsky Mine and Crean Hill by late 2027 or early 2028. Next we review that the payment from the bulk sample that was mined at Crean Hill and processed at Vale's facilities last year is slated to come in about a month out, which will bring in more capital to the company. Additionally, we reviewed the financial health of Magna Mining now that they have upsized the Debenture Offering from C$15 up to C$22 million of Convertible Debentures. Concurrent with the Debenture Offering, the Company previously announced a "best efforts" private placement offering of up to 6,451,612 common shares of the Company at a price of C$1.55 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$10 million, it will take the financing up to C$32 million raised in the Offering, and is expected to close on or about February 27, 2025. Wrapping up we discussed how these funds would be used for both ongoing development and a healthy exploration program at the McCreedy West copper mine, and around the past-producing Levack mine to keep optimizing future mining operations and resource expansion. Jason also gives us a boots-on-the-ground take on the sentiment and reception from all their meetings at the BMO Conference in Hollywood, Florida. There will be a lot of newsflow on tap over the next few weeks and months from Magna Mining. If you have questions for Jason regarding Magna Mining, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.

Good and bad unintended consequences.By FinalStand. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.The highest cost of losing a war is the rage of your children."Maybe the Canadian is not so much an 'ex' girlfriend?" Orsi leered. It was the old 'if he is so good that she still wants him back after a colossal screw up, I wanted a taste' expression."Do you think she will help you?" Katalin inquired."She'll help," Pamela huffed playfully. "My grandson has plenty of ex-girlfriends. Most of them want him back, despite his colorful lifestyle. It is one of his more amusing qualities.""Let's get something to eat," I tried to turn the conversation away from my past sexcapades."You are engaged?" Jolan didn't miss a beat."It is complicated," I sighed. "Let's just say I really like her, but she's seven years older, divorced with one young daughter and has a father who hates that I live and breathe.""Do you have any male friends?" Monika joined the Cáel Quiz Bowl."Yes," I replied with confidence. "My roommate Timothy and I are great friends.""He's gay," Pamela pierced their disbelief. "He and Cáel are true brothers-in-arms, I'll give Cáel that much.""Do you have any straight male friends?" Orsi was enjoying taunting me."Do Chaz or Vincent count?" I looked to Pamela."They are straight males, but they don't really know you yet," Pamela failed to be of much help. "I think Vincent insinuated he'd shoot you if you dated any of his three daughters. It was friendly of him to warn you. I supposed that could be construed as liking you.""Are all your acquaintances violent?" Anya seemed worried."Vincent isn't violent. He's with the US FBI," I retorted. Pause. "Okay, he carries a gun and shoots it, he's a law officer. They can do that.""You seem to be stressed," Orsi put an arm around my waist. "Let us ease your worries." Hallelujah!Note: One of History's LessonsIn the last 75 years of military history, airpower had been a decisive factor in every major conflict, save one. Most Americans would think the one exception was US involvement in Vietnam and they'd be wrong: right country, wrong time. Indochina's War of Independence against France was the exception. There, the French Air Force was simply inadequate to the task.Yes, the United States and its allies eventually lost the struggle in Vietnam. But it was their airpower that kept the conflict running as long as it did. For the most part, the Allied and Communist military hardware on the ground were equivalent. While the Allies had superior quantities of supplies, the Communists countered that with numbers, and therein lies the rub.Airpower allowed the Allies to smash large North Vietnamese formations south of the Demilitarized Zone and thus prevented the numerical advantage from coming into play. The North Vietnamese and Viet Cong made one serious stab at a conventional militarily challenge to the Allies, the Tet Offensive, and after initial successes, they were crushed.With the NVA unable to flex their superior numbers, the Allies were able to innovate helicopter-borne counter-insurgency operations. The North Vietnam's Army (NVA) was forced to operate in smaller units, so the Allies were able to engage them in troop numbers that helicopters could support. The air forces didn't deliver ultimate victory, but air power alone had never been able to do so on land. It was only when the US lost faith in achieving any positive outcome in Viet Nam and pulled out, that the North was finally able to overrun the South 20 months later. But every major power today understands the lesson.End of Note(Big Trouble in Little China)The military importance of airpower was now haunting the leadership of the People's Republic of China (PRC), the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF). Their problem wasn't aircraft. Most of their air fleet consisted of the most advanced models produced during the last two decades. The problem was that 80% of their pilots were dead, or dying. Their ground crews were in the same peril. Even shanghaiing commercial pilots couldn't meet the projected pilot shortfall.Classic PLA defense doctrine was to soak up an enemy (Russian) attack and bog down the aggressor with semi-guerilla warfare (classic small unit tactics backed up with larger, light infantry formations). Then, when the invaders were over-extended and exhausted, the armored / mechanized / motorized forces would counter-attack and destroy their foes. This last bit required air superiority through attrition.The twin enemies of this strategy were the price of technology and the Chinese economic priorities. With the rising cost of the high-tech equipment and a central government focus on developing the overall economy, the Chinese went for an ever smaller counter attack striking force, thus skewing the burden of depth of support far in favor of their relatively static militia/police units.So now, while the PLA / PLAAF's main divisions, brigades and Air Wings were some of the best equipped on the planet, the economic necessities had also meant the militia was financially neglected, remaining little more than early Cold War Era non-mechanized infantry formations. To compensate, the Chinese had placed greater and greater emphasis on the deployment capabilities of their scarcer, technologically advanced formations.When the Anthrax outbreak started, the strike force personnel were the first personnel 'vaccinated'. Now those men and women were coughing out the last days and hours of their lives. Unfortunately, you couldn't simply put a few commercial truck drivers in a T-99 Main Battle Tank and expect them to be anything more than a rolling coffin. The same went for a commercial airline pilot and a Chengdu J-10 multi-role fighter. The best you could hope for was for him/her to make successful takeoffs and landings.A further critical factor was that the Khanate's first strike had also targeted key defense industries. The damage hadn't been irreparable. Most military production would be only a month to six weeks behind schedule. But there would be a gap.It was just becoming clear that roughly 80% of their highly-trained, frontline combatants were going to die anyway. Their Reserves were looking at 30~40% attrition due to the illness as well. In the short term (three months), they would be fighting with whatever they started with. Within the very short term (one week), they were going to have a bunch of high-priced equipment and no one trained to use it. With chilling practicality, the Chinese leaders decided to throw their dying troopers into one immediate, massive counter-offensive against the Khanate.Just as Temujin predicted they would. Things were playing out according to plan.Note: World Events SummaryRound #1 had seen the Khanate unite several countries under one, their, banner. Earth and Sky soldiers had rolled across the Chinese border as their Air Force and Missile Regiments had used precision strikes to hammer Chinese bases, sever their transportation network and crippled their civilian infrastructure.Next, the frontier offensive units had been obliterated, the cities bypassed and the Khanate Tumens had sped forward to the geographic junctures between what the Khanate wanted and from whence the PLA had to come. In the last phase of Round #1, the Khanate prepped for the inevitable PLA / PLAAF counter-strike.Round #2 had now begun:Step One: Declare to the World that the Khanate was a nuclear power. As history would later reveal, this was a lie, but no one had any way of initially knowing that. Hell, the Khanate hadn't even existed 72 hours ago. Satellite imagery did show the Khanate had medium-range strategic missiles capable of hitting any location in the People's Republic. In Beijing, a nuclear response was taken off the table.Step Two: Initiate the largest air-battle in the history of Asia. Not just planes either. Both sides flew fleets of UCAV's at one another. It wasn't really even a battle between China and just the Khanate. Virtually all of the UAV technology the Khanate was using was Japanese, South Korean and Taiwanese in origin, plus some US-Russian-shared technology thrown into the mix.When the South Korean design team saw the footage of their bleeding-edge dogfighting UCAVs shooting down their PRC opponents, they were thrilled (their design rocked!), shocked (what was their 'baby' doing dominating Chinese airspace?) and anxious (members of South Korea's Defense Acquisition Program Administration, DAPA, were rushing over to chat with them).Similar things were happening in Japan, Taiwan, Russia and the United States. The Communist Party leadership in Beijing were beginning to seriously consider the possibility that everyone was out to get them. Of course, all the Ambassadors in Beijing were bobbing their heads with the utmost respect while swearing on the lives of their first born sons that their nations had nothing to do with any of this.These foreign diplomats promised to look into these egregious breaches of their scientific integrity and were saying how sorry they were that the PLA and PLAAF were getting ass-raped for the World's viewing pleasure. No, they couldn't stop the Khanate posting such things to the internet, something to do with freedom. Paranoia had been creeping into the Potentates' thoughts since the Pakistan/Aksai Chan incident.As they watched their very expensive jets and UCAV's being obliterated, distrust of the global community became the 800 pound gorilla in the room. To add habaneros to the open wounds, the United States and the United Kingdom began dropping hints that they had some sort of highly personal communication conduit with the Khanate's secretive and unresponsive leadership. Yes Virginia Wolfe, the Western World was out to get the People's Republic.'Great Mao's Ghost', all that claptrap their grandfathers had babbled on about (1) the Korea War, (2) the Sino-Soviet grudge match, (3) the Sino-Vietnamese conflict and (4) the persistent support for the renegade province of Formosa all being a continuous effort by the liberal democracies and post-colonial imperialist to contain Chinese communism, didn't sound so crazy anymore.Step Three: Plaster all those PLA ground units that had started moving toward them when the air war began and the Chinese envisioned they would control the skies. The T-99 was a great tank. It also blew up rather spectacularly when it was stuck on a rail car (you don't drive your tanks halfway across China, it kills the treads).As Craig Kilborn put into his late night repertoire:"What do you call a Khanate UCAV driver who isn't an ace yet? Late for work.""What's the difference between me coming off a weekend long Las Vegas bender and a Khanate pilot? Not a damn thing. We've both been up for three days straight, yet everyone expects us to work tonight."Some PLA generals decided to make an all-out charge at the Tumens. Genghis's boys and girls were having none of that. They weren't using their Russian-built Khanate tanks to kill Chinese-built PLA tanks. No, their tanks were sneaking around and picking off the Chinese anti-air vehicles.The Chinese tanks and APCs engaged the dismounted Khanate infantry who, as Aksai Chin had shown, possessed some of the latest anti-tank weaponry. In the few cases where the PLA threw caution to the wind, they did some damage to the Khanate by sheer weight of numbers. For the rest, it was death by airpower.With their anti-air shield gone, the battle became little more than a grisly, real-life FPS game. It wasn't 'THE END'. China still had over 2,000,000 troops to call upon versus the roughly 200,000 the Khanate could currently muster. The PLA's new dilemma was how to transport these mostly truck-bound troops anywhere near the front lines without seeing them also exterminated from the air.After the Tumens gobbled up the majority of the PLA's available mobile forces, they resumed their advance toward the provincial boundaries of Xinjiang and Nin Mongol. There was little left to slow them down. The Chinese still held most of the urban centers in Xinjiang and Nei Mongol, yet they were isolated. And Khanate follow-up forces (the national armies they'd 'inherited') were putting the disease-riddled major municipalities under siege.All over the 24/7 World Wide News cycle, talking heads and military gurus were of two minds about the Khanate's offensive. Most harped on the fact that while the Khanate was making great territorial gains, it was barely making a dent in the Chinese population and economy. Uniformly, those people insisted that before the end of November, the Khanate would be crushed and a reordering of Asia was going to be the next great Mandate for the United Nations.A few of the braver unconventional pundits pointed out the same thing, but with the opposite conclusion, arguing:1.There were virtually no military forces in the conquered areas to contend with the Khanate's hold on the regions.2.Their popularity in the rural towns and countryside seriously undercut any hope for a pro-PRC insurgency.3.Driving the Khanate's forces back to their starting points would be a long and difficult endeavor that the World Economy might not be able to endure.When the PLAAF was effectively castrated after thirty-six hours of continuous aerial combat, a lot of experts were left with egg on their faces. One lone commentator asked the most fearful question of all. Where was the Khanate getting the financing, technical know-how and expertise to pull all of this off? There was a reason to be afraid of that answer.And while I was entertaining my six sailor-saviors, there were two other things of a diplomatic nature only just revealing themselves. Publically, Vladimir Putin had graciously offered to mediate the crisis while 'stealthily' increasing the readiness of his Eastern Military District. If there was any confusion, that meant activating a shitload of troops on the Manchurian border, not along the frontiers of the former nations of Mongolia and Kazakhstan.After all, Mongolia was terribly poor. Manchuria/Northeastern China? Manchuria was rich, rich, rich! From the Kremlin, Putin spoke of 'projecting a presence' into the 'lost territory' of Manchuria, citing Russia's long involvement in the region. By his interpretation of history, the Russians (aka the Soviet Union) had rescued Manchukuo (the theoretically INDEPENDENT Imperial Japanese puppet state of Manchuria) from the Japanese in 1945. They'd even given it back to the PRC for safekeeping after World War II was concluded.Putin promised Russia was ready and willing to help out the PRC once again, suggesting that maybe a preemptive intervention would forestall the inevitable Khanate attack, thus saving the wealthy, industrialized province from the ravages of war. Surely Putin's Russians could be relied on to withdraw once the Khanate struggle was resolved? Surprisingly, despite being recent beneficiaries of President Putin's promises, the Ukraine remained remiss in their accolades regarding his rectitude.In the other bit of breaking news; an intermediary convinced the Khanate to extend an invitation to the Red Cross, Red Crescent and the WHO to investigate the recently conquered regions in preparations for a humanitarian mission.That intermediary was Hana Sulkanen; for reasons no one could fathom, she alone had the clout to get the otherwise unresponsive new regime to open up and she was using that influence to bring about a desperately needed relief effort to aid the civilians caught up in that dynastic struggle. A Princess indeed. No one was surprised that the PRC protested, claiming that since the territory wasn't conquered, any intervention was a gross violation of Chinese sovereignty.End of Note(To Live and Die in Hun-Gray)Orsi may have been the troupe leader, but Anya needed me more, so she came first."I need a shower before we catch some dinner," I announced as we meandered the streets of Mindszent. My lady friends were all processing that as I wound an arm around Anya's waist and pulled her close. "Shower?" I smiled down at her, she was about 5 foot 7. It took her a few seconds to click on my invitation."Yeah, sure, that would be nice," she reciprocated my casual waist hold. Several of her friends giggled over her delay. We were heading back to the Seven Fishermen's Guest House."Do you do this, picking up strange girls you've barely met for, you know?" she said in Bulgarian, as she looked at me expectantly."Yes and no," I began, in Russian. "I often find myself encountering very intriguing women, for which I know I am a fortunate man. I embrace sensuality. That means I know what I'm doing, but I'm not the 'bring him home to meet the parents' kind of guy.""What of your fiancée? Do you feel bad about cheating on her?" Anya pursued me."Hana is wonderful. I've met her father and it went badly both times," I confessed."How?" Anya looked concerned for me."Would you two speak a language the rest of us can understand?" Monika teased us."Very well," I nodded to Monika, and turned back to Anya, "The first time, his son raped a girl and I threatened the young man's life," I revealed. "Jormo, Hana's father, wasn't happy when I did so. The second time, he hit me twice, once in the gut and once in the head," I continued."Why did he hit you?" Orsi butted in."I'd rather not say. You may think less of me," I confessed. Pamela gave me a wink for playing my audience so well. I'm glad she's family (kinda/sorta)."The boy, he is dead?" Magdalena guessed. "Hana's brother?""I really shouldn't talk about that," I evaded. "It is a family matter." That's right. The family that my grandmother had brought me into as her intern / slayer-in-training. There is no reason to create a new lie when you can embellish a previous one."Do you ever feel bad about what you do?" Katalin asked Pamela. We love movies."As I see it, if I show up looking for you, you've done something to deserve it," Pamela gave her sage philosophy behind being an assassin."Are you, bi-sexual?" Jolan murmured. Pamela smacked me in the chest as I laughed. "Did I say something wrong?" Jolan worried. Pamela was a killer."No, you are fine," Pamela patted Jolan's shoulder. "I'm straight and happily so. It just so happens that most of my co-workers are women. Day in, day out, nothing but sweaty female bodies working out, sparring and grappling together, and afterwards, the massages."That was my Grandma, poking all the lesbian buttons of the women around me. Best of all, she did it with the detached air of a sexually indifferent matron. She was stirring up the lassies while keeping them focused on me. We walked into the courtyard of our guest house."Don't take too long, you two," Orsi teased us."Ha!" Pamela chuckled. "That's like asking the Sun to hurry up and rise, the Moon to set too soon, or the sea to stay at low tide forever.""Anya," I whispered into her ear. "How many orgasms do you want?" Anya's eyes expanded. Her eyes flickered toward her friends, then back to me. She held up one finger, I grinned speculatively. Anya held up two fingers. I kissed her fingers.

Dr Glenn McConell chats with Dr Tommy Lundberg from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. He is an expert on resistance training (RT) and has focussed on the effect of concurrent training on exercise adaptations. That is, does doing concurrent resistance and endurance training affect the responses to resistance and endurance training compared to doing either alone. His research has specifically focused on the effects of endurance training on resistance training adaptations although we also discussed the effect of resistance training on endurance training adaptations. It appears that in many people concurrent training has either no interfering effect or may even be beneficial. However there is some limited research that endurance training, although not affecting hypertrophy, may reduce strength and/or speed of contraction. He has also done a lot of work on biological males been involved in female sports (which will be converted in a future podcast). I found it a very interesting chat. Enjoy! X: @TLexercise. 0:00.

Het cijferseizoen staat voor de deur. De Amerikaanse grootbanken staan te trappelen om hun resultaten over het afgelopen jaar te presenteren. We blikken uitgebreid vooruit op de komende weken. Je hoort op welke aandelen je moet letten en welke bedrijven (niet) gaan stunten. Ook hebben we het over de EU. Al een jaar lang onderzoeken ze in Brussel de Amerikaanse tech-reuzen. Meta, Google en Apple moeten vrezen voor mega-boetes. Of toch niet, want volgens de Financial Times gaan ze al die onderzoeken ineens heroverwegen. Europa zweert dat het niet komt door de overwinning van Trump, maar toch lijkt het erop dat het geslijm van de tech-bazen heeft geholpen. Deze aflevering hoor je wat het voor je tech-aandelen betekent, dat die onderzoeken mogelijk van tafel gaan. Ook hebben we het over de Amerikaanse economie. Trump erft een goed draaiende economie, zeggen economen. Ze roepen hem op om vooral niet zijn hervormingen door te voeren. Want dan kan het breken. Tot slot hoor je meer over de TikTok-soap, de overname-soap van US Steel en de beursgang van Klarna. Dat een deal heeft gesloten met een Adyen-concurrent.

In this episode, Mark talks with Brooke Jenkins about her early teaching career, her time at ASU, and then as an adjunct instructor at Estrella Mountain Community College, where she was introduced to modeling instruction. They talk about her work with BYU Idaho, and her move to Utah, where she has helped to develop concurrent enrollment classes for high school students to take the course at their high school while earning college credit at Weber State University. She has been creating professional development for the high school teachers who administer the concurrent enrollment chemistry classes. She uses labs from the modeling materials and walks the high school teachers through how to do each lab in the way that modeling instruction would administer those labs. They talked about a grant she has been able to secure to fund the modeling instruction workshops through state funds, and another grant she is working on to provide stipends for teachers who attend the workshop. Guests Brooke Jenkins Brooke studied Chemistry Education and Physics teaching at Brigham Young University before going to Arizona State University where she earned her Masters in Chemistry. Her research in Chemistry specifically addressed assessment of conceptual understanding in chemistry. She has taught chemistry at the high school, community college and now at the university level. Since 2018 she has taught at Weber State University where she gets to mentor students working towards their licensure and has revamped the concurrent enrollment program. This redesign of the concurrent enrollment curriculum has allowed her to incorporate more modeling ideals into the labs and classroom. Hosting a modeling workshop in Utah has been on her bucket list since moving away from Arizona. She is very excited that this is the year this workshop will become a reality. Highlights [19:19] Brooke Jenkins "we go through an accreditation process to make sure that our concurrent enrollment program is in fact accredited. And one of those things is, you have to make sure that, what we're doing on campus is the same as what they're doing in the high schools, and that includes professional development for our teachers that are doing the program." [24:26] Brooke Jenkins "the way it works here in Utah is you get your license and then you get endorsed in different areas that you can teach in. And if a teacher is working towards an endorsement, then they can have their tuition covered for taking that class." [30:51] Brooke Jenkins "So if there's something in your state that can happen for your teachers, trying to figure out that incentive system may be a really big part to making your workshop successful."

Aujourd'hui, Barbara Lefebvre, Bruno Pomart, et Mourad Boudjellal débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.
Convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh has launched a new bid for freedom, filing an appeal to overturn his convictions for the brutal 2021 murders of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul. This latest development, a meticulously crafted 121-page document submitted to the South Carolina Supreme Court, alleges jury tampering by Becky Hill, the former clerk of court for Colleton County. The appeal raises questions about judicial integrity, challenging the fairness of one of the most high-profile trials in recent history. Allegations of Jury Tampering Murdaugh, once a scion of South Carolina's powerful Low Country legal dynasty, is serving two consecutive life sentences for the killings, convictions handed down after a jury deliberated for less than three hours. His legal team now claims that Hill, who resigned earlier this year under a cloud of ethics violations, improperly influenced the jury. Allegations include Hill's private conversations with jurors about Murdaugh's guilt and advice to “watch his body language.” These accusations include claims that Hill entered the jury room during deliberations, a breach of protocol that contradicts judicial procedures meant to ensure impartiality. Hill's actions have drawn further scrutiny due to her decision to publish a book, Behind the Doors of Justice, shortly after the trial. While the book reportedly earned her significant financial gains, it has since been removed from circulation. Critics argue that her financial and public aspirations created a conflict of interest, compromising the sanctity of the trial process. Murdaugh's attorneys argue that Hill's actions should result in a mistrial, emphasizing that interference of this nature cannot stand in a court of law, particularly in such a critical case. The appeal also revives debates about the evidence used during the trial. Central to Murdaugh's conviction was damning cell phone data that placed him at the Moselle estate near the time of the murders. Prosecutors presented a chilling narrative: Murdaugh ambushed his son, Paul, in the kennel area, shooting him twice with a shotgun before using a .300 Blackout semi-automatic rifle on Maggie, firing five times even as she collapsed to her knees. The brutal nature of the killings and the forensic evidence presented were pivotal in securing the guilty verdict. Murdaugh's defense contends that the jury's ability to fairly weigh this evidence was compromised by Hill's alleged misconduct. They argue that her reported comments to jurors introduced bias, undermining the principle of impartiality. Hill's alleged ethical lapses extend beyond the Murdaugh trial. In June, South Carolina officials filed ethics violations against her, citing misuse of county funds, unauthorized bonuses, and orchestrating a photograph of Murdaugh in his holding cell—a move that further sensationalized an already high-profile case. Hill has denied wrongdoing related to the trial, stating that her resignation in March was prompted by public scrutiny and a desire to focus on her family. Nevertheless, these allegations have fueled debates about the integrity of Murdaugh's conviction. Legal experts and the public alike are grappling with the implications of a trial potentially compromised by personal ambition and ethical violations. The murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh shocked South Carolina and drew national attention, partly due to the family's storied history. For nearly a century, the Murdaughs wielded unparalleled influence as solicitors and district attorneys in the Low Country region. That legacy began to unravel with revelations of Alex Murdaugh's financial crimes. Concurrent with his murder convictions, Murdaugh was sentenced to 40 years in federal prison for defrauding clients of millions. Prosecutors accused him of exploiting vulnerable clients to fund a lavish lifestyle. At sentencing, Murdaugh expressed remorse but offered little solace to those he'd wronged. The Supreme Court Steps In In January, Murdaugh's defense first raised the issue of jury tampering with former South Carolina Chief Justice Jean Toal, who dismissed the allegations, citing insufficient evidence to prove the comments swayed the verdict. However, in August, the Supreme Court overturned Toal's decision, agreeing to consider whether the alleged tampering merits a retrial. Legal analysts have noted that the court's decision to review the matter reflects the seriousness of the allegations and their potential to undermine public confidence in the justice system. Public opinion remains sharply divided. To some, Murdaugh's appeal is a desperate ploy from a man already convicted of heinous crimes. To others, the allegations against Hill represent a betrayal of judicial ethics that, if proven, could undermine the legitimacy of the verdict. As the Supreme Court prepares to deliberate, the implications are clear: justice must not only be done but be seen to be done. Murdaugh's legal team is also contesting the inclusion of his financial crimes during the murder trial, arguing that the evidence prejudiced the jury by portraying him as morally bankrupt. Prosecutors counter that the financial pressures Murdaugh faced provided a motive for the murders, a theory central to their case. The inclusion of this evidence remains a contentious point that could play a pivotal role in the Supreme Court's decision. Legal experts continue to debate whether admitting financial crimes was necessary to understand Murdaugh's motives or whether it unfairly tainted the jury's perception of him. As South Carolina awaits the court's ruling, the Murdaugh saga continues to captivate and polarize. At its core lies a complex interplay of privilege, power, and justice, with each development adding new layers of intrigue. Whether this appeal will result in a retrial or reaffirm the convictions, one thing is certain: the reverberations of this case will be felt for years to come. The outcome will not only determine Murdaugh's future but also set a precedent for addressing allegations of misconduct in high-stakes trials, ensuring the integrity of the justice system remains uncompromised.

Central to Murdaugh's conviction was damning cell phone data that placed him at the Moselle estate near the time of the murders. Prosecutors presented a chilling narrative: Murdaugh ambushed his son, Paul, in the kennel area, shooting him twice with a shotgun before using a .300 Blackout semi-automatic rifle on Maggie, firing five times even as she collapsed to her knees. The brutal nature of the killings and the forensic evidence presented were pivotal in securing the guilty verdict. Murdaugh's defense contends that the jury's ability to fairly weigh this evidence was compromised by Hill's alleged misconduct. They argue that her reported comments to jurors introduced bias, undermining the principle of impartiality. Hill's alleged ethical lapses extend beyond the Murdaugh trial. In June, South Carolina officials filed ethics violations against her, citing misuse of county funds, unauthorized bonuses, and orchestrating a photograph of Murdaugh in his holding cell—a move that further sensationalized an already high-profile case. Hill has denied wrongdoing related to the trial, stating that her resignation in March was prompted by public scrutiny and a desire to focus on her family. Nevertheless, these allegations have fueled debates about the integrity of Murdaugh's conviction. Legal experts and the public alike are grappling with the implications of a trial potentially compromised by personal ambition and ethical violations. The murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh shocked South Carolina and drew national attention, partly due to the family's storied history. For nearly a century, the Murdaughs wielded unparalleled influence as solicitors and district attorneys in the Low Country region. That legacy began to unravel with revelations of Alex Murdaugh's financial crimes. Concurrent with his murder convictions, Murdaugh was sentenced to 40 years in federal prison for defrauding clients of millions. Prosecutors accused him of exploiting vulnerable clients to fund a lavish lifestyle. At sentencing, Murdaugh expressed remorse but offered little solace to those he'd wronged. The Supreme Court Steps In In January, Murdaugh's defense first raised the issue of jury tampering with former South Carolina Chief Justice Jean Toal, who dismissed the allegations, citing insufficient evidence to prove the comments swayed the verdict. However, in August, the Supreme Court overturned Toal's decision, agreeing to consider whether the alleged tampering merits a retrial. Legal analysts have noted that the court's decision to review the matter reflects the seriousness of the allegations and their potential to undermine public confidence in the justice system. Public opinion remains sharply divided. To some, Murdaugh's appeal is a desperate ploy from a man already convicted of heinous crimes. To others, the allegations against Hill represent a betrayal of judicial ethics that, if proven, could undermine the legitimacy of the verdict. As the Supreme Court prepares to deliberate, the implications are clear: justice must not only be done but be seen to be done. Murdaugh's legal team is also contesting the inclusion of his financial crimes during the murder trial, arguing that the evidence prejudiced the jury by portraying him as morally bankrupt. Prosecutors counter that the financial pressures Murdaugh faced provided a motive for the murders, a theory central to their case. The inclusion of this evidence remains a contentious point that could play a pivotal role in the Supreme Court's decision. Legal experts continue to debate whether admitting financial crimes was necessary to understand Murdaugh's motives or whether it unfairly tainted the jury's perception of him. As South Carolina awaits the court's ruling, the Murdaugh saga continues to captivate and polarize. At its core lies a complex interplay of privilege, power, and justice, with each development adding new layers of intrigue. Whether this appeal will result in a retrial or reaffirm the convictions, one thing is certain: the reverberations of this case will be felt for years to come. The outcome will not only determine Murdaugh's future but also set a precedent for addressing allegations of misconduct in high-stakes trials, ensuring the integrity of the justice system remains uncompromised.

Convicted murderer Alex Murdaugh has launched a new bid for freedom, filing an appeal to overturn his convictions for the brutal 2021 murders of his wife, Maggie, and son, Paul. This latest development, a meticulously crafted 121-page document submitted to the South Carolina Supreme Court, alleges jury tampering by Becky Hill, the former clerk of court for Colleton County. The appeal raises questions about judicial integrity, challenging the fairness of one of the most high-profile trials in recent history. Allegations of Jury Tampering Murdaugh, once a scion of South Carolina's powerful Low Country legal dynasty, is serving two consecutive life sentences for the killings, convictions handed down after a jury deliberated for less than three hours. His legal team now claims that Hill, who resigned earlier this year under a cloud of ethics violations, improperly influenced the jury. Allegations include Hill's private conversations with jurors about Murdaugh's guilt and advice to “watch his body language.” These accusations include claims that Hill entered the jury room during deliberations, a breach of protocol that contradicts judicial procedures meant to ensure impartiality. Hill's actions have drawn further scrutiny due to her decision to publish a book, Behind the Doors of Justice, shortly after the trial. While the book reportedly earned her significant financial gains, it has since been removed from circulation. Critics argue that her financial and public aspirations created a conflict of interest, compromising the sanctity of the trial process. Murdaugh's attorneys argue that Hill's actions should result in a mistrial, emphasizing that interference of this nature cannot stand in a court of law, particularly in such a critical case. The appeal also revives debates about the evidence used during the trial. Central to Murdaugh's conviction was damning cell phone data that placed him at the Moselle estate near the time of the murders.

Cassie and her neighbor were constantly on each other's nerves. One night, the neighbor snuck onto Cassie's property and jammed a stick into the A/C condenser fan blades out of spite, causing the mechanicals on the unit to break down. Notable Timestamps [ 00:29 ] - The adjuster's manager points out the exclusion for mechanical breakdown, prefaced by anti-concurrent causation language. The adjuster still feels this loss was in the nature of a vandalism loss and should be covered. [ 01:45 ] - Trivia question! What sitting US Senator was assaulted by his neighbor while mowing his lawn? [ 02:45 ] - Mike & Brennan get into their history of neighbor feuds and doggie disputes... [ 04:04 ] - The "Anti-Concurrent Causation" preface deals with the multiple causation problem. The default approach is to determine which cause is dominant or proximate, but where a policy has the "Anti-Concurrent Causation" preface, that's not the approach. [ 05:35 ] - Tim pulls the policy out of his pocket and reads that exclusions that follow the A.C.C. preface are excluded "regardless of any other cause..." [ 07:00 ] - In four jurisdictions (AL, CA, WA, WV), the A.C.C. preface is disregarded. [ 07:40 ] - There is an argument to be made that mechanical breakdown is in the chain of events, and therefore the exclusion applies regardless of the vandalism cause. [ 09:11 ] - An insurance company can choose to draft their policy this way and exclude this loss. [ 10:44 ] - Usually when you think mechanical breakdown, you think of a machine reaching the end of its life, wearing out, as opposed to sudden damage. [ 11:23 ] - It is very rare to see the mechanical breakdown exclusion paired with the A.C.C. preface, likely due to this unintuitive situation. The A.C.C. preface is usually intended for exclusions more subject to misapplication, such as flood. [ 12:55 ] - The way this policy is drafted, any time a machine breaks down it would eliminate coverage... even during a fire? Would a court uphold that? [ 13:30 ] - Tim provides a recap of the scenario and the points above.

Interview with Shane Williams, President & CEO of West Red Lake Gold MinesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/west-red-lake-gold-mines-tsxvwrlg-poised-for-success-in-restarting-historic-madsen-mine-6164Recording date: 15th November 2024West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSXV:WRLG) is on the cusp of revitalizing the historic Madsen gold mine in the renowned Red Lake mining district of Ontario. Under the stewardship of a new management team, the company has dedicated the past 18 months to systematically de-risking the project, setting the stage for a potential resumption of production in late 2025.Central to WRLG's efforts has been a focus on validating the geological understanding of the deposit and the integrity of the resource base. The company has undertaken an extensive 50,000m underground drilling campaign to augment the existing data set. Crucially, WRLG engaged three independent groups to review the data and construct their own resource models. The results align closely with WRLG's internal estimates, providing a strong third-party endorsement of the company's methodology and conclusions.With a firm geological foundation established, WRLG has shifted its attention to the operational preparations required to bring the Madsen mine back online. The recent arrival of key infrastructure components, such as the crusher and camp, mark tangible progress on this front. The company has also successfully scaled its on-site workforce to 150, with plans to reach 200-250 in the coming months. Importantly, WRLG has been able to draw heavily from the experienced local labor pool in the Red Lake area, underscoring the project's advantageous location.Looking ahead, two key milestones are expected to further solidify the Madsen project's trajectory. By early December, WRLG anticipates completing a pre-feasibility study (PFS) centered on an 800-1000 tons/day operating scenario. Management has emphasized the importance of focusing the study on a "base case" that demonstrates the economics of restarting the mine based solely on the Madsen resource. While exploration upside certainly exists, the PFS is intended to present a conservative, achievable starting point for the operation. Concurrent with the PFS, WRLG is conducting a test mining program to reconcile actual results with the resource model. This will provide a final level of confirmation as the company prepares to make a production decision. For investors, the coming months are likely to be transformative for the Madsen project and, by extension, WRLG. The delivery of the PFS should provide the first detailed look at the anticipated economics of the re-started operation. The test mining results will offer another key data point in evaluating the risk profile of the asset ahead of a full production decision. While not without risks, the Madsen project benefits from extensive existing infrastructure, a strategic location, and a management team that has demonstrated a methodical, disciplined approach to resource development. As WRLG transitions from explorer to producer, the value proposition for investors is poised for a potential re-rating, making the story one to watch closely in the junior gold space.View West Red Lake Gold Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/west-red-lake-gold-mines-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

I can, you know, ride the dopamine high of seeing that, you know, nice time and having a fun time out at the track and let that be the stimulus for the day rather than, oh, well, the book over here says that I need to do, you know, 350 meters and I only did 240. - Cody Bidlow (34:10) I would say that my training is very autoregulated, but it's not to the point where I'm looking at, oh, velocity dropped by 2.5%, so that's why I'm going to shut it down, It's more, I can tell within myself that I'm getting to a point where I'm starting to get fatigued from this workout – Cody Bidlow (38:24) Are you really going to run faster on this next one? Yes. Okay, do it. Are you going to be safe? Are you or are you going to get hurt? No, I'm not going to get hurt. Okay. Yeah, do it. - Cody Bidlow (44:43) If you just simply ask them, like, how do you feel? They're gonna say good. Bad. You know, they're just gonna say some kind of basic thing because they may not really grasp what I mean by that question. - Cody Bidlow (45:03) So I would try to ask questions in a way where we're getting a little bit deeper. Like, I'd maybe be specific about how do your hamstrings feel? Do you feel like you're going to be able to run as well on the next one? Or what did you feel on that rep? - Cody Bidlow (46:32) The athletes who really want to be good, they're always going to say, yes, I'll always take another rep. The athletes who are lazier, they don't care as much, or, you know, whatever their mental mechanism is, they always. It's almost like, yeah, I'm good. Yeah, I'm done. It's not even necessarily that I want to get better.

It's Frieze week!!! We meet painter Jonas Wood to discuss his new solo exhibitions with Gagosian in London.Gagosian is pleased to present an exhibition of new paintings by Jonas Wood, opening at the Grosvenor Hill gallery in London on October 7, 2024. These works see Wood extend the unmistakable visual language that he has developed over two decades, exploring the dynamics of color, pattern, and space through the treatment of recurring subjects, including plants, family, and interiors. At once exuberant and obsessive, intimate and imaginative, the paintings on view—like much of Wood's work—are marked by the interplay of apparent opposites.Wood's compositions are characterized by sudden disjunctures, the collision of contrasting graphic passages, and sly shifts of scale and perspective, all within a compressed picture plane. These qualities grow out of his elaborate studio process: the artist works from photographs that he frequently alters and collages by hand, which, in turn, form the basis for preparatory drawings from which the paintings derive. Through these stages, he transforms volumes, surfaces, and textures into dense blocks of pattern and vibrant color.A feeling of intimacy is palpable, too, in the portrait of Wood's wife (the artist Shio Kusaka) and their two children, titled Shio, Momo, and Kiki with Leaf Masks. Based on a photograph taken in the couple's shared studio, the painting presents a playful moment, with the kids, in their pajamas, and Kusaka holding up masks improvised from large leaves taken off one of the copious plants around them, as if dressing up as one of his paintings. Other works on view represent family through their creations rather than as themselves: Wall of Fame portrays a wall from Wood's studio crowded with his children's art; Shio Shrine imagines a compact staging of work Kusaka made over the course of two decades; and Still Life with Coffee and Minibook features paintings by the children as well as a book of Kusaka's art, arranged among potted plants and a cup of coffee. These works entail a deft intermixing of subject and object, making and staging, art and life.Concurrent with the exhibition, Wood is taking over Gagosian Burlington Arcade from October 7 to November 23, 2024.
