Havana Docks Corp. v. Royal Caribbean Cruises | 02/23/26 | Docket #: 24-983 24-983 HAVANA DOCKS CORP. V. ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES DECISION BELOW: 119 F.4th 1276 CERT. GRANTED 10/3/2025 QUESTION PRESENTED: The LIBERTAD Act is an essential pillar of United States foreign policy toward Cuba's hostile and anti-American regime. Title III of that Act creates a private right of action for United States nationals who have a claim to property confiscated by that regime against persons who traffic in that property. 22 U.S.C. § 6082(a)(1). The Act specifies that such trafficking "undermines the foreign policy of the United States" by, among other things, "provid[ing] badly needed financial benefit" to the Cuban regime. Id . § 6081(6). The question presented here applies in every case brought under Title III, and will determine whether that provision continues to advance U.S. foreign policy toward Cuba: whether a plaintiff must prove that the defendant trafficked in property confiscated by the Cuban government as to which the plaintiff owns a claim (as the statute requires), or instead that the defendant trafficked in property that the plaintiff would have continued to own at the time of trafficking in a counterfactual world "as if there had been no expropriation" (as the divided Eleventh Circuit panel held below). LOWER COURT CASE NUMBER: 23-10151, 23-10171

Coffeezilla Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbQVtXJ42xmgK-q-z8tbezUbVTHPMGmXc CONTEXT: After Coffeezilla exposed Sam Bankman-Fried and the collapse of FTX, he turned his sights on Logan Paul's crypto NFT project, Cryptozoo.

He followed this with an episode of his podcast, Impaulsive, where he repeated the same threat. He then took down both videos and reached out to Coffeezilla to inform him that he's no longer pursuing litigation--but then, on June 27, 2024, he sued him anyway.

Interview with Clinton Booth, Managing Director & CEO of GCM CorporationOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/green-critical-minerals-asxgcm-vhd-graphite-tech-targets-17b-data-center-market-7556Recording date: 10th February 2026GCM Corporation (ASX:GCM) is executing a critical transition from pre-revenue technology developer to commercial manufacturer in the thermal management sector, with first revenues targeted for the first half of 2026. The company has successfully pivoted from graphite exploration to industrial manufacturing following its late 2024 acquisition of proprietary VHD thermal management technology.CEO Clinton Booth outlined the company's progress through distinct commercialization phases during a February interview. After validating the technology in early 2025 and confirming market appetite in Q2, GCM entered active prototyping in the second half of the year. The company is now manufacturing customer-specific products under confidentiality agreements, sharing technical drawings with multiple customers across electronics, data centers, renewables, and electrical sectors.The VHD technology addresses a critical industry challenge: efficiently dissipating heat loads as devices become more powerful yet smaller. With thermal conductivity superior to copper and aluminum while being 4.5 times lighter than copper and 30 percent lighter than aluminum, VHD offers performance advantages that incumbent materials cannot match. As Booth noted, the market is actively seeking new solutions, with demand driven by electrification, artificial intelligence, and increasing power density requirements across the technology sector.GCM's modular manufacturing approach provides rapid scalability with minimal capital requirements. The current demonstration plant produces hundreds of units monthly, scaling to 1,000 units near-term with capacity to expand 100-fold within 12-15 months. The company achieved ISO 9001 certification in late 2025 and in-housed its product design capability, establishing systematic processes essential for scaling production as sales agreements materialize.Electronics and DC-to-DC converter markets offer the shortest sales pipeline, while data center opportunities present longer qualification periods but significant long-term value. The anticipated first major sales agreement represents a watershed moment that Booth expects will catalyze additional customer interest and validate the company's strategic transformation from explorer to industrial technology manufacturer.View GCM Corp's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/green-critical-mineralsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Luke Norman, Executive Chairman of US Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/us-gold-corp-nasdaqusau-feasibility-study-imminent-with-major-20262028-catalysts-8678Recording date: 16th January 2026US Gold Corp has distinguished itself within the junior gold sector by securing full mining permits for its CK Gold project in Wyoming whilst maintaining an exceptionally tight share structure of just 16.5 million shares outstanding. The company completed a $31.2 million financing in December 2025 with participation from major institutional investors including VanEck, Goehring & Rozencwajg, and Libra Capital, marking a validation milestone that complements its established retail shareholder base.The CK Gold project represents one of the few fully permitted, shovel-ready gold-copper developments in North America. Having received final non-conditional mining permits in December 2024, US Gold Corp has eliminated a significant source of timeline uncertainty that affects competing projects. This permitting achievement, combined with the project's location just 20 miles from Cheyenne, Wyoming, provides practical advantages in accessing established infrastructure, skilled labour, and contractor services that should translate into lower capital and operating costs.The company expects to release its Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) in late January or early February 2026, establishing the pathway to project finance. Executive Chairman Luke Norman outlined an 18-month timeline from financing to production, with first-year output forecast at 130,000 ounces gold and 24 million pounds copper. With gold prices exceeding $4,600 per ounce, project economics benefit materially compared to earlier technical assessments conducted at lower metal price assumptions.Management has identified multiple financing pathways reflecting strong global demand for gold-copper concentrates. The preference for debt financing aims to preserve the company's tight share structure, which provides significant operating leverage with a $330 million market capitalisation against a 1.7 million ounce reserve base. Potential financing structures include forward sales arrangements, concentrate offtake agreements, and traditional project debt, creating optionality in capital structure.Beyond the permitted reserve, US Gold Corp plans to commence drilling targeting an additional one million ounces below the current resource. With 80% of historical drilling bottoming in mineralisation, management estimates this exploration programme could add approximately one billion dollars in net present value. This drilling represents a strategic shift toward value optimisation now that economic viability and permitting have been established.The investment proposition centres on scarcity value within North American gold development opportunities. As major producers face declining reserve grades and extended permitting timelines, fully permitted projects in tier-one jurisdictions command premium valuations. US Gold Corp's combination of permits, institutional validation, infrastructure advantages, and tight share structure positions the company for potential multiple reratings throughout 2026 as it advances through definitive feasibility release, project financing, and construction commencement.The straightforward metallurgical flowsheet—crush, grind, flotation, and tri-stack processing—reduces technical execution risk, whilst the Wyoming location provides jurisdictional certainty and operational advantages. With institutional capital flowing into the gold sector and concentrate demand characterised as "insatiable," US Gold Corp offers investors exposure to near-term North American gold production with significant exploration upside and multiple catalysts ahead.View U.S. Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/us-gold-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
My guest this week is Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium Corporation. Thomas brings a unique background to the table—he started in classics and law before diving into mining. We discussed his journey from building a gold producer in Mexico to leading uranium projects in the US after a pivot from Niger due to a military coup.Thomas explained the uranium sector's dynamics. The world produces about 160 million pounds annually but consumes 200 million, with stockpiles dwindling. This drives prices from $30 to $75 per pound. Kazakhstan leads production at 43%, while the US consumes 50 million pounds but produces under 1 million. Australia hosts the largest deposit at Olympic Dam.Episode Blog Post: https://www.sharesforbeginners.com/blog/myriad-uranium

Bijou Finney, also known as Mushroom Mamasita, is a Medicine Woman, Integration Alchemist, and Retreat Creatrix whose work lives at the intersection of plant medicine education, psychosomatic healing, and visionary life design. She works with conscious entrepreneurs, couples, and women who are ready to come alive, helping them clear blocks across pleasure, purpose, prosperity, persona, and power through somatic practices, plant-based wisdom, and therapeutic coaching.In this episode, Bijou and I go deep into a side of authenticity that doesn't get talked about enough. Not the curated, Instagram-friendly version—but the real, lived, sometimes uncomfortable experience of actually being yourself. We explore why authenticity can trigger resistance in others, why being honest often costs you approval, and how self-love isn't always soft, but rather, it's often brave.We talk about archetypes, nervous system responses, identity shedding, and what happens when you stop performing who you think you're supposed to be. This conversation is raw, grounded, and incredibly timely, especially if you're feeling a pull toward truth, clarity, and aligned action in this next chapter.This episode is for anyone who's done pretending, done shrinking, and ready to live from a deeper place of integrity, even when it's messy.Follow Bijou and learn more:https://www.mushroommamasita.com/https://www.instagram.com/mushroommamasitahttps://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/bijoulea-finney/episodes/Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: amyedwards.infoInstagram: @realamyedwardsFight For Her: fightforher.netTikTok: @themagicbabeYouTube: YouTube ChannelPodcast: The Amy Edwards Show PodcastFree Course: The Ageless MindsetFull Course: The Youthfulness HackWork with Amy: Book a Call Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

In this episode of The Product Experience, host Lily Smith speaks with veteran product leader Sean Flaherty about a question at the heart of modern product management: how do you influence without authority? Drawing from behavioural science and decades of experience building products and teams, Sean outlines a framework based on self‑determination theory — the modern science of intrinsic motivation.Through the lens of autonomy, competence and relatedness, Sean explains why traditional command‑and‑control leadership undermines creativity and accountability. He shows how true autonomy is structured freedom, how competence is demonstrated through behaviour, and how relatedness builds trust and advocacy among teams and users. Along the way he reframes accountability as something teams hold themselves to, not something enforced by fear, and discusses how leaders can help teams grow, adapt and thrive in a world of constant change.Chapters00:00 — Introduction & central question01:30 — Guest background04:45 — State of leadership today06:10 — Intro to intrinsic motivation08:40 — The “code” of motivation12:28 — Autonomy in teams17:11 — Competence and product work20:30 — Observable behaviour and growth paths23:10 — Adaptability and learning culture24:25 — Accountability misunderstood27:04 — Accountability spectrum31:21 — Addressing negative behaviour36:19 — AI and leadership change38:01 — Leadership trends todayKey Takeaways— Motivation is scientific, not abstract— Product leaders need to understand the science of intrinsic motivation — not just processes or tools — to influence without authority and achieve sustainable outcomes.— Three core motivators drive behaviourAutonomy: people need meaningful choice, not chaos or micro‑managementCompetence: motivation increases when people feel capable and are supported to growRelatedness: connection and shared purpose power trust, loyalty and advocacy— Autonomy is structured freedom: Autonomy is not “do whatever you want”. It's about balancing freedom with guidance so teams can be creative but not lost.— Competence is observed in behaviour, not checklists: Real competence shows up in behaviour — what people do — not just knowledge or titles.— Accountability emerges, not enforced: Traditional accountability relies on fear and external control. In contrast, self‑accountability arises when goals are meaningful and environments allow peopleOur HostsLily Smith enjoys working as a consultant product manager with early-stage and growing startups and as a mentor to other product managers.

As we watch all these countries around the world deal with the consequences of open borders that lead to decline of culture and history, there is one country in Europe that is a shining light to any country anywhere on earth. Protect what is yours. Embrace who you are and thrive. It's a good lesson for Americans to learn. Jackson County, Missouri has wanted to unmask any and all officers of the law and as they push forward, now they want to name the ordinance after Renee Good. And they wonder why the sports teams want to leave that county. Oregon hasn't tried to clean up its voter rolls in nearly a decade but after a jillion lawsuits, they've been forced to. You won't believe what happened. Meta Corporation is the parent company of Facebook and Instagram and they've been as far left as anyone through the years. Not anymore. They just hired Trump's former Deputy National Security Advisor as President and Vice Chair of the entire company. What? KU hasn't started 1-3 in conference play since 1987 and it's on the line Tuesday night at Allen Fieldhouse when Iowa State calls. The Clones are 16-0 and KU is a rare underdog at home. This game is way, way too big for KU for all the wrong reasons. A former Rockhurst high school standout, college player and college coach may be the perfect option for the Chiefs as a young offensive coordinator that can pump new ideas into the Patrick Mahomes project 2.0. He's actually getting interviews for head coaching jobs but is NOT a current coordinator. We have the deets. The NFL playoff schedule is set for the weekend and the Manningcast from Monday night featured Eli giving Peyton a gift that may have just been the best highlight of the night.

He opens up about the challenges of cold-calling owners, managing a solo search process, and living out of a motel during due diligence, all while learning the ropes of entrepreneurship on the fly.He also dives into the bold decisions that fueled Carma's growth, from strategic acquisitions like Priority Submetering and Spectrum Building Services to the recent landmark sale to CVC DIF.

Shalin Shah is the CEO of Marius Pharmaceuticals and widely known as The Metabolic CEO. He's a leading voice in metabolic health and hormone therapy innovation, and one of the strongest advocates working to destigmatize testosterone for both men and women.In this episode, we go deep into what's really happening with testosterone today — why levels are declining across the population, why this is not just a “male” issue, and why testosterone is foundational to metabolic health, longevity, mental health, bone density, and quality of life. Shalin breaks down complex science in a way that's practical and empowering, and explains why testosterone deficiency is being massively underdiagnosed and undertreated.We talk about environmental toxins, sleep disruption, stress, lifestyle, and the long-term consequences of ignoring low testosterone — including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, depression, frailty, and increased all-cause mortality. We also explore the future of hormone therapy, why testing should be standard, and how innovation like oral testosterone could change access and outcomes for millions of people.This conversation is informative, eye-opening, and honestly a bit of a wake-up call — especially for anyone in midlife who wants to age strong, think clearly, and feel energized again.What we cover:Why testosterone levels are declining in men and womenTestosterone as a metabolic health marker, not a lifestyle drugThe role of sleep, stress, toxins, and modern lifeWhy fatigue, brain fog, depression, and low motivation are often hormonalThe truth about testosterone myths and stigmaWhy testing matters — and why baselines should start earlyThe difference between “normal” and “optimal” hormone levelsOral vs topical vs injectable testosteroneWhy muscle, bone health, and longevity are directly tied to hormonesWhat's changing at the FDA — and why this moment mattersPanel: https://www.fda.gov/patients/fda-expert-panels/fda-expert-panel-testosterone-replacement-therapy-men-12102025?Comments: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2025-N-6743-0001/commentwww.kyzatrex.comhttps://www.instagram.com/themetabolicceo/Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: amyedwards.infoInstagram: @realamyedwardsFight For Her: fightforher.netTikTok: @themagicbabeYouTube: YouTube ChannelPodcast: The Amy Edwards Show PodcastFree Course: The Ageless MindsetFull Course: The Youthfulness HackWork with Amy: Book a Call Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

NOTHING YOU HEAR IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. THIS IS EDUCATION/ENTERTAINMENT ONLY. I hope you guys enjoy my podcast with Timothy Call of Capital Management Corp. Tim spends his time finding and investing in unloved small-caps that lead their little market niches. These companies are often down a lot over the past year, trade at low valuation multiples, and pay shareholders via dividends/buybacks/and debt reduction. I love this podcast because Tim uses three trade ideas that are all different. One's a consumer health company, another is a school supplies manufacturer, and another one is a gold miner. If you like new idea generation, you will love this podcast. NOTHING YOU HEAR IS INVESTMENT ADVICE. THIS IS EDUCATION/ENTERTAINMENT ONLY.

In this solo episode, I'm talking about what it really means to take aligned action: not forced action, not performative hustle, but the kind of movement that actually changes your life. We all love setting goals and making lists, but nothing shifts until we're willing to face what's real and take the next brave step.

This episode is about listening to your intuition, getting quiet before you get busy, naming true yeses and noes, and taking small courageous steps without waiting for permission.Aligned action isn't rigid or perfect, but rather, it's a relationship.

Before You Close Your Books This Year, Make These 3 Tax-Saving Moves When it comes to taxes, most entrepreneurs are winging it and paying the price. I'm joined by my friend and tax attorney, Braden Drake, who breaks down the must-know tax strategies that can save you thousands and help you feel confident about your business accounting. Whether you're already making six figures or simply want to feel prepared when it comes to bookkeeping, Braden is here to demystify LLC vs. S Corps, deductions, and the smartest year-end money moves you can make. In this episode, we tackle the common tax mistakes online business owners make, how to structure your business for long-term savings, and what you can do right now to set yourself up for a stress-free tax season. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Stop Mixing Business & Personal Finances – One of the most common (and expensive) mistakes entrepreneurs make is skipping a separate business bank account. Keep your finances clean and organized to avoid audit headaches and missed deductions. 2️⃣ Understand the S Corp Advantage – Braden explains exactly how switching from an LLC to an S Corp (when your profit hits around $60K–$100K) can save you thousands each year and why getting this wrong could trigger IRS red flags. 3️⃣ Don't Spend Just to “Save” on Taxes – The smartest entrepreneurs don't buy their way into write-offs. Instead, they focus on year-end strategies that actually build wealth, like opening a retirement account, catching up on bookkeeping, and planning for profit with intention.
