Did you happen to notice that Tylenol recently launched a dietary supplement product range designed to promote joint comfort and mobility? When the best-selling pain relief brand in the U.S. market launches a drug-free product range…it not only speaks volumes about shifting consumer attitudes from treatment to prevention, but also about the increasing importance of supplements for the pharmaceutical industry. And maybe unsurprisingly to my fellow industry nerds, but this new product launch further strengthens the pharma-nutra convergence trend. In fact, pharmaceutical companies have been increasingly tapping into the preventive segment…seeking new revenue opportunities to mitigate against numerous factors hampering industry profits. Therefore, even during periods of relatively strong demand for OTC drugs, supplements still present an important opportunity to expand the product offering…thus we expect this trend to continue and likely permanently reshape the nutraceutical industry.
Progressive Christian Podcast on Faith, Justice & Reconciliation — Weekly Scripture: Micah 6:8 — “Do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.” Join Rev. Brittany and special guest Leo Djamson for an inspiring and deeply honest conversation about faith, racial justice, and cultural understanding through the lens of First United Methodist Church of San Diego’s Sankofa Pilgrimage to Ghana – exploring the lasting effects of the transatlantic slave trade and how it’s shaped the beautifully diverse and resilient people of Ghana. It’s an impactful journey of discovery for all involved regardless of heritage, upbringing, personal experiences, and political beliefs. This pilgrimage is one of the ways that the church lives out Micah’s call to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. It’s all about embracing racial justice and loving kindly as we uncover and unpack some of the history of our ancestors that influence our implicit biases and contribute to today’s continuing racial tensions. Leo is a member of church who grew up in Ghana. Listen in as he shares about his childhood, how Ghana shaped his life, and the cultural similarities and differences than the US. They also discuss the misconceptions the US has about west Africa and how Ghana honors its history and participation in the transatlantic slave trade. This conversation models an effective, healthy way to connect with others at a deeper, more meaningful level to expand our awareness and appreciation of other cultures – finding shared experiences as well as the mosaic of beautiful differences that shape the way we interact with and understand the world and our communities. We invite you to continue this conversation model! Join our in-person Convergence group or our online community at patreon.com/fumcsd. Our groups are open to all — wherever you are on your spiritual journey. As a progressive church, we provide a safe space to dig deeper into your faith and beliefs. About the Sankofa Pilgrimage: The Sankofa Pilgrimage is more than a trip. It is a sacred journey of study, travel, and reflection, rooted in the West African Adinkra symbol Sankofa, which means “It is not foolish to go back and get that which you have forgotten.” Together, pilgrims remember the humanity of all people, confront painful truths about the church’s complicity in racism, and explore how God is calling us to be builders of justice and reconciliation today. The Sankofa Pilgrimage welcomes people of all faith backgrounds. Teens 14+ may attend with a trusted adult. Classroom learning is free and open to everyone, even for those not traveling.

In October, stakeholders representing an unusual combination of sectors — public, private, academic, non-profit and journalism — gathered with insurance industry experts at the 10X Convergence in Jacksonville, Florida, to explore solutions to unsustainable insurance and disaster recovery costs throughout the Interstate 10 region.Insurers continue to cancel homeowners policies across California, Texas, Louisiana, and Florida as exposure to accelerating billion-dollar disasters undermines carriers' ability to pay out claims while remaining solvent. The industry crisis has begun to spread northward, where a widening Tornado Alley sees growing impacts from property-damaging storms. This is a complex, all-hands-on-deck issue. Insurance practices and building standards have not adapted to the realities of climate change, and have neglected potential to be of powerful mutual support to one another. On the whole, 10X Convergence participants were clear that viable solutions will require a combination of applied climate and economic research with proactive governance and communications strategies, and that this must be matched by industry willingness to innovate its systems of underwriting and community development. In this podcast, Ten Across journalists Maya Chari and Taylor Griffith take you through the problems and potential solutions discussed by the diverse group of experts at the 10X Convergence.

Tonight's episode shares one of the most detailed and disturbing alien abduction accounts ever recorded — the story of Marcus, a man forever changed by a childhood encounter in rural Minnesota in 1994. What began as a single night of terror evolved into decades of systematic visitation and transformation, revealing an agenda that challenges everything we know about the UFO phenomenon.Marcus's experiences defy explanation. From paralysis and levitation into a silent craft hovering above the pines to his eventual role as an “interface” between human and post-human consciousness, his testimony offers unprecedented insight into the purpose behind abductions.A trained electrical engineer, Marcus spent years trying to rationalize his encounters, documenting physical evidence including an unexplained implant and altered biological markers.He describes a vast hybrid program, introducing beings engineered to bridge humanity and something beyond — entities that may already walk among us, preparing for what they call The Convergence. His accounts of knowledge downloads, advanced mathematics, and shared memories suggest a disturbing truth: these visitors may not be extraterrestrials at all, but evolved humans ensuring their own survival through time. Whether you believe his story or not, Marcus's account forces us to confront profound questions about consciousness, evolution, and the future of our species.Listener discretion is advised. This is not just an abduction story — it's a revelation that blurs the line between horror, prophecy, and human destiny.

Based on John 21:1-13 In this episode of Perspectives FUMCSD Pastors Podcast, Rev. Hannah and Rev. Trudy wrap-up the Our Money Story stewardship series. They explore what it means to respond to God’s call — both personally and as a faith community. Inspired by the “postscript” chapter of John’s Gospel, this conversation dives into the miraculous breakfast on the shore: a moment that combines miracle, relationship, and eucharist — reminding us that the resurrection isn’t just about following Jesus, but about how we live, belong, and serve together. Join the female pastors of First United Methodist Church of San Diego as they unpack what this story means for our stewardship journey: How do we respond to God’s invitation when we feel empty or discouraged? What does it mean to bring what we have — our time, talent, and treasure — to feed the community? How can we honor our different gifts and responses as part of one thriving body of faith? This is a story of recommissioning — a reminder that the call continues and the story is still being written. We invite you to continue to think about how we can respond to God’s call as a faith community today. Join our in-person Convergence group or our online community at patreon.com/fumcsd. Here are the discussion questions for this episode: Have you ever had to keep trying even when there were no results from your efforts? Have you ever responded “No” to God? Have you ever said “Yes,” and were unexpectedly blessed in doing so? Our Patreon community is open to all — wherever you are on your spiritual journey. It’s free to join and connect over weekly questions, with optional paid tiers for bonus content and deeper engagement.

The Final Ai BEAST System Merging Public and Private DATA Larry Ellison recently, Oracle Ai Cloud Service Company, recently spoke at an Ai conference that outlines major findings about your future of total enslavement to the BEAST Ai little God. The VCAST will answer the following questions about the final beast ai little god system: 1. Tower of BABEL 2.0, BEAST System big Picture strategies to steal your soul via BCI and the technocracy government that will tokenize everything including you. All things will be measured and monitored by the Ai satanic brain. 2. Why and how is Oracle at the tip of the spear for Ai Beast Backbone (One World Gov) leaning on private and public data. Oracle trains the big four Ai platforms and has most of the high value private data (personal and corporations) that they are using Ai to reason against.

As the Days of Noah DNA defilement of food supply / and you. There is a strong desire to know get your blood under the guise of healthcare. With your blood, they have your Genes / DNA. Is Larry an agent of Israel and how does this fit scripture?
Nowadays, the Parisian neighborhood of Châtelet is known among young people as a gathering place where they flirt, take part in consumerism at its fullest within a large shopping mall, and engage in street interviews with absurd or provocative questions. This episode explores the patterns that have led to the convergence of youth toward this specific area of Paris, often coming from distant suburbs. Once synonymous with life, identity expression, entertainment, and leisure, this place now faces increasing scrutiny from authorities, who try to limit gatherings through police presence—often stopping young men and women without real justification.Authorities seek peace and a neutralized space, whereas the youth longs for a place to express itself. This policy of neutralization reflects a broader pattern of silent domination imposed by bourgeois categories seeking to preserve their power and social monopoly. These recent attempts at regulation in the heart of Paris can be seen as part of a broader effort to advance gentrification—running counter to the very urban DNA of this area, which was meant to be occupied and shared by all.This episode was prepared with the following academic works: Charpy, M.

In this week’s episode, Rev. Brittany and Rev. Trudy continue the Our Money Story series with a deep dive into the concept of Jubilee — one of the “holiness codes” of Leviticus. What does it mean to live a life of holiness, stewardship, and community in a world that often feels far from those ideals? As the people of Israel prepared to enter the Promised Land, they were asked to imagine a new way of living — one marked by rest, release, and restoration. The Jubilee year invited them to reset by freeing servants and forgiving debts. It was a remembrance that everything ultimately belongs to God. The female pastors of First United Methodist Church of San Diego explore: • How holiness is dynamic — something practiced with intention and vigilance • What Jubilee teaches us about community, stewardship, and freedom • Why imagining a new way of being is the first step toward living it • How modern communities can embody Jubilee through inclusion, acceptance, and generosity Through the digital Bible study, we’re reminded that even though Jubilee may seem impossible to live out on a large scale, there’s incredible power in small, grassroots acts of forgiveness and freedom. We invite you to continue to reimagine Jubilee for the modern world. Join our in-person Convergence group or our online community at patreon.com/fumcsd to discuss the questions for this episode: What would you imagine if Jubilee was practiced? What would you do if all of your debts were forgiven? What do you think would surprise you if you learned a little more about someone who was living on the streets?

The discussion emphasizes that OT focuses on safety and physical outcomes, while IT prioritizes data security. They stress the importance of collaboration between IT and OT teams, highlighting how system integrators, OEMs, and plant operators must work together to improve cybersecurity posture. The conversation covers practical issues like Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), incident response, and the need for proper funding and governance. Both advocate for CISOs and CIOs to actively engage with OT teams and system integrators, visit manufacturing facilities, and understand the unique challenges of industrial control systems to achieve true convergence and protect manufacturing plants and critical infrastructure.Chapters:00:00:00 - Opening Shot: Who's Really in Charge—CIOs or the Plant Floor?00:00:57 - Collision Course: IT and OT Can't Keep Dodging Each Other00:01:52 - Two Worlds, One Mission: Why OT Isn't Just “IT in a Hard Hat”00:04:07 - When Convergence Fails: What's Missing in the Middle00:05:54 - Breaking Silos: Why Cybersecurity Demands True Collaboration00:08:22 - Real Talk: What Cyber Protection Looks Like on the Plant Floor00:10:46 - OT's Tipping Point: Will the Next Move Come from IT, or the Shop Floor?00:17:32 - Your Move: What Leaders Must Do Next (Before It's Too Late)Links And Resources:Industrial Cybersecurity Insider on LinkedInCybersecurity & Digital Safety on LinkedInBW Design Group CybersecurityDino Busalachi on LinkedInCraig Duckworth on LinkedInThanks so much for joining us this week.

In this episode, Ashok shares a story from a long established services company with a big vision for transformation. The leadership team set their sights on launching a new AI enabled membership business. The original plan involved technology, acquisitions, and a long wait before revenue or even a customer touchpoint. Instead of waiting nine months to learn whether the idea would land, they adopted a lean and human centered approach that created clarity and momentum in weeks. Ashok walks through how they reduced risk, accelerated learning, and positioned the business for success without gambling its future. What You Will Learn • How to de risk technology and AI initiatives before large capital commitments • How your sales/field team can be a valuable source of insights • Practical ways to bring field teams into the innovation process • How to measure progress without waiting months for revenue or adoption • A repeatable approach for CEOs to test assumptions and move with confidence This episode is designed for CEOs and operators of traditional businesses with ambitions to create new revenue streams through technology, AI, or subscription models. Do not build based on hope. Validate with customers first, sell early, and build only the parts that prove necessary.

Rev. Hannah and Rev. Brittany are back in the Video Studio continuing their discussion on money, the church, and what it means for modern Christians. This time, they’re talking about the concept of helping community members by opening our hands and hearts and releasing debts, providing financial freedom and relief to others. It’s a conversation they’ve titled: Our Money Story – Release. The two female pastors are inspired by Deuteronomy 15 and God’s vision of releasing debts, providing rest, and granting freedom every seventh year. Through the biblical passage, they notice it’s a story of abundance, acknowledging that as a church community, we’ll always have more than enough, so there is no need for an inward focus of hoarding personal assets instead of having an external focus of communal support and prosperity. They describe it in this straightforward way of thinking: If you have, you give. The women clergy of First United Methodist Church of San Diego also use this digital Bible Study to discuss: The shifting definition of Sabbath from the nomadic times of Exodus to the agricultural community of Deuteronomy. The coexistence of personal economy and communal economy. God isn’t calling for charity; they’re local for a system that doesn’t allow for deep debt with no hope of financial freedom. The difference between the rhythm of grace and the rhythm of greed. There are a lot of concepts packed into this short conversation, so we encourage you to engage with others as you uncover your thoughts about financial release. You can do so through our in-person Convergence group or joining our online community at patreon.com/fumcsd. Here are the discussion questions for this episode: What would “release” look like in our world today? What would it mean to stop the relentless cycle of debt — emotional, financial, spiritual — that keeps people captive? What could we let go of to create space for everyone’s wellbeing in the community? Our Patreon community is open to all – no matter where you align in your spiritual beliefs. It’s free to join and connect over the weekly episode questions. There is also an optional paid membership that unlocks additional content. Check it out at https://www.patreon.com/fumcsd!
What if the key to creating cleaner, faster, and more efficient cities isn't building new infrastructure, but rethinking how we move what we already have? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Richard Savoie, co-founder of Adiona, whose AI-powered logistics platform is transforming how goods travel through urban environments. Richard's background as a patent-holding engineer and mentor in the medical device field gives him a unique perspective on precision, quality, and human-centered design. At Adiona, he applies that same discipline to logistics, helping delivery networks run smarter, leaner, and more sustainably. His FlexOps platform uses AI to optimise routes, model EV fleet conversions, and create digital twins of operations so companies can reduce emissions and increase efficiency—without replacing the people who make it all work. In our conversation, Richard shares why he believes in a humanistic approach to AI that empowers drivers, dispatchers, and warehouse workers instead of automating them out of existence. We also explore how Adiona's scenario modelling helps global brands like Coca-Cola and Australia Post cut costs while meeting 2030 sustainability goals, and what the future might hold as AI and robotics begin to converge for last-meter delivery. So, could the next big sustainability breakthrough come from reimagining the routes that already exist? And how might AI reshape the logistics networks that keep our world moving? I'd love to hear your thoughts after listening.
"What is life?" - asks Chris Kempes, a professor at the Santa Fe Institute.Chris explains that scientists are moving beyond a purely Earth-based, biological view and are searching for a universal theory of life that could apply to anything, anywhere in the universe. He proposes that things we don't normally consider "alive"—like human culture, language, or even artificial intelligence; could be seen as life forms existing on different "substrates".To understand this, Chris presents a fascinating three-level framework:- Materials: The physical stuff life is made of. He argues this could be incredibly diverse across the universe, and we shouldn't expect alien life to share our biochemistry.- Constraints: The universal laws of physics (like gravity or diffusion) that all life must obey, regardless of what it's made of. This is where different life forms start to look more similar.- Principles: At the highest level are abstract principles like evolution and learning. Chris suggests these computational or "optimization" rules are what truly define a living system.A key idea is "convergence" – using the example of the eye. It's such a complex organ that you'd think it evolved only once. However, eyes evolved many separate times across different species. This is because the physics of light provides a clear "target", and evolution found similar solutions to the problem of seeing, even with different starting materials.**SPONSOR MESSAGES**—Prolific - Quality data.

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.All thirty marked families arrive at the library, but they're not separate anymore—they're merging into one impossible body with the Davidsons as a leg with screaming faces in the kneecap, the Pattersons as an arm with children's mouths for fingers, and the congregation twisted into organs that pray and sing. The twenty wrong Margarets melt into this mass as it reaches for Margaret with appendages that shouldn't exist—hands made of tongues, fingers that are entire arms—trying to absorb her as the witness that gives their meat meaning. Father Williams tears through the convergence with his inverted body existing inside and outside simultaneously, revealing the merger is actually digestion—making thirty small pieces into one easy-to-swallow mass—and pulls Margaret free though she leaves layers of skin behind.At the fountain, the original Sarah Blackwood still stands pregnant after 251 years, offering Margaret a choice: merge with the thirty-family mass to become the Pattern itself, or merge with Sarah to become poison—either way, they're getting eaten. The entire town converges toward the fountain as buildings lean together and drivers fuse with cars, while Margaret realizes she's already split between two convergences, dissolving into the space between choosing.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Driven by the Triumph Network—a platform dedicated to modernizing and simplifying freight transactions—Triumph empowers its customers to Transact Confidently. Key Takeaways: Beyond the Rate: Why Accuracy, Transparency and Context Matter In “Beyond the Rate: Why Accuracy, Transparency and Context Matter”, Joe Lynch and Dawn Salvucci-Favier, President of Triumph, discuss how accuracy, transparency, and network connectivity are the new drivers for precision and confidence in the logistics industry. The Convergence of Finance and Intelligence: The acquisition of dynamic pricing infrastructure expert Greenscreens.ai by the financial and technology company Triumph highlights a critical shift: the future of transportation is driven by combining secure financial transactions with AI-powered market intelligence for unmatched precision. Accuracy is the New Rate: Relying on static or historical rates is no longer sufficient. Accuracy in pricing requires a real-time, dynamic pricing infrastructure (Greenscreens.ai's specialty) to minimize risk, ensure profitability, and provide a true competitive advantage "Beyond the Rate." Transparency Builds Trust (and Capital): As emphasized by the Triumph Network, Transparency in freight transactions—through secure and precise operations—is essential.

The Triumph Network exemplifies this evolution, acting as the essential platform to modernize and simplify the complex interactions and transactions between all parties in the freight ecosystem. Technology Must Deliver Financial Outcomes: Dawn's career trajectory, from logistics operations to leading product strategy, underscores that successful logistics technology must move beyond simple workflow management and deliver concrete financial benefits, such as better pricing precision and optimized working capital. The Holistic Differentiator: The ultimate competitive edge is no longer achieved by focusing on a single metric (like the lowest rate). It is the strategic and integrated combination of technological Accuracy, financial Transparency, and deep industry Contacts (human and digital) that allows companies to "Transact Confidently."

In this episode of Convergence.fm, Ashok Sivanand sits down with Farhan Thawar, Head of Engineering at Shopify, to go behind the scenes of how Shopify not only keeps pace with rapid change but leads it. The discussion explores how Shopify became one of the first platforms to allow merchants to sell products directly inside ChatGPT, why that move challenges Amazon's dominance, and what it takes to build a company that learns faster than it fails. Farhan explains the systems that make being first repeatable rather than accidental, including Shopify's internal LLM proxy, MCP servers, experimentation culture, and democratized tooling. If you are a CEO, COO, or CTO looking to scale through culture, systems, and intentional technology adoption, this episode shows what it looks like to operate with conviction and long-term relevance. Key Topics and Moments: Shopify and OpenAI's commerce integration. The same day OpenAI enabled in-chat shopping, Shopify merchants were already live. Farhan explains what it takes for a company of Shopify's size to move with that kind of speed Competing with Amazon through culture, not size. Shopify has 3,000 engineers compared to Amazon's 35,000+, yet continues to outpace bigger players by focusing on coherence, focus, and empowered execution rather than bureaucracy and scale. The meaning behind Tobi Lütke's April AI memo. Farhan discusses how Shopify operationalized its “AI is non-optional” stance, what baseline expectations look like, and how performance is evaluated in an AI-native organization. AI reflexivity and the “three buckets.” Farhan explains how teams are taught to recognize “AI not allowed,” “AI optional,” and “AI mandatory” problems so that employees develop instinct for when to reach for AI — and when to pick up the screwdriver. The risk of ‘vibe coding' and why hand tools still matter. Farhan shares lessons from real incidents inside and outside Shopify, like the Cloudflare outage caused by unreviewed AI-generated code, and how engineering leaders teach judgment, not just prompting. The LLM Proxy and MCP Servers. Inside look at how Shopify democratized AI across departments by building an internal platform that connects all major models and corporate data sources, enabling every employee to build workflows and ask intelligent questions — not just engineers. AI budgeting vs. SaaS budgeting. Farhan explains why AI usage isn't treated like traditional SaaS spend and how Shopify encourages heavy experimentation by rewarding impact rather than punishing token consumption. Experimentation as a system. How teams are encouraged to show work at 20%, not 80%, and why the speed of learning, not perfection, is the true productivity metric. Subtraction as leadership. Farhan shares how founders and executives must delete outdated processes, rules, and layers of bureaucracy to make room for new ideas — why process should only exist if it makes something possible or 10x better. Hiring and growing AI-native talent. Why Shopify doubled down on internships, hiring 1,000 interns this year and next, and how younger engineers push full-timers to stay current by being born AI-native “centaurs.” Responsibility versus accountability. Why leaders can delegate tasks but not responsibility, and how to stay in the work without disempowering the team. Certainty as intolerance. Farhan's reflection on why overconfidence kills creativity, and how leaders can replace fixed beliefs with wayfinding, curiosity, and adaptive decision-making. Rapid-fire reflections for CEOs. Ashok and Farhan close with lessons on showing unfinished work, modeling curiosity, and removing friction as a cultural operating system. Who Should Listen: Mid-market CEOs, COOs, and CTOs building adaptable organizations that can scale. Leaders focused on culture and transformation, not just technology adoption. Operators who want to apply product thinking and modern software practices to traditional industries. Notable Quotes: “We have a baseline expectation of using AI. If you have two people, one using AI and one not, they will both be evaluated the same.” – Farhan Thawar on AI usage expectations “We don't like waste, but we don't have limits. If you believe in your workflow, use the best model for your problem solving.” – Farhan Thawar on AI token cost and consumption “You can now buy directly in chat from Shopify merchants.

Before choosing tools, clarify what problem you are solving and what your business stands for. Enable your team. Ask whether you are removing barriers or creating them. Are employees empowered to experiment? Model the change. Use AI tools yourself. Share your learnings, wins, and failures openly. F Foster learning. Consider introducing internal forums or “thinking clubs” that encourage curiosity and reflection across your team.
