The front desk is dead.Let's be honest—we don't live in the “tour the clubhouse” era anymore.In today's Multifamily world, your leasing agent doesn't sit behind a desk—they live on your website. Your first impression isn't curb appeal—it's your digital curb appeal. Prospects are vetting your community online, building opinions before they ever set foot on site... if they even do.In this episode of Multifamily Operations Tip of the Day, Mike Brewer unpacks a seismic shift: leasing has gone from feature dumping to lifestyle storytelling.Modern leasing pros aren't selling space—they're narrating experiences. Conversion metrics matter more than call logs. Data beats gut instinct. And your online presence? It's now your #1 closer.If you're still treating leasing like a front-desk gig, you're already behind.Let's talk about what it takes to compete today—and win tomorrow.

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Adding to the economic tailwinds are sizable tax refunds reaching American households. While often dismissed as routine, refunds play a significant role in consumer behavior. Many families use them to pay down debt, invest, or make long-delayed purchases. Others channel that money into savings or entrepreneurial ventures. This infusion of cash...

“AI is moving faster than your organization, and no, pilots don't count as a plan.” — Mike BrewerEvery multifamily PMC wants a great AI story to tell! Here is the version you don't want to tell. Or, worse, you don't want to acknowledge. Even worse, the one you're oblivious to. Don't fret, there is hope; most PMCs aren't unprepared. Wait, I lied; it's past time to worry; they're misprepared. Break the glass and pull the alarm! All of them!Over the past several years, primarily due in part to supplier partners (no ill intent meant to these fine humans) adding AI features to their core products! Or in some cases as a marketing tagline. But, I digress. PMCs have adopted AI like it's a tool. Not a transformation. A pilot here. A dashboard there. But under the hood? No structure. No systems. No real muscle for iteration – read humans that are open to change.Make no mistake, Multifamily and thus PMCs are sprinting toward an AI-infused future. The problem is they are still running in the shoes Jim Thorpe made famous at the 1912 Stockholm Olympics.Not meant as a metaphor, but as a diagnosis and more importantly a warning! Get a new pair of track shoes and lace them up tight because this is the most critical sprint your PMC will ever run! The time is NOW!AI adoption is moving at breakneck speed. But the operational backbone that supports it is made of processes, people, decision rights, and data structures. And that backbone is fragmented. It is outdated. In many cases, it is dangerously unaware.Most PMCs do not have a centralized AI team. No one owns the roadmap. No one owns the feedback loop. No one owns the ethics. No one owns the scale. No one owns the failure modes. So when something breaks or when it scales without oversight, there is no hand on the wheel.Brutal TruthAI does not reward experimentation. It rewards orchestration. We are not talking about a SaaS install. It is an operating model shift (this is the punchline to wrap your head around) – Call it a TINA problem. Unless you restructure your organization to keep pace with the pace and pattern of AI's evolution, you are not building a competitive advantage. You are creating what the tech industry calls, technical debt.I'm calling it a readiness gap.The symptoms are already appearing everywhere. Data pipelines are bottlenecking innovation. Frontline teams are stuck interpreting dashboards they do not trust. AI recommendations are ignored because they are not connected to real decision flows. The executive suite is playing with ChatGPT while the real leverage dies in committee.You can't close the readiness gap with more AI tools. You must be thoughtful, intentional, and strategic. And most of all committed!!You need an AI command center. It must be cross-functional. It must cut across silos. It must be culturally embedded. It must own education, integration, and experimentation. This cannot be a shadow IT project. It must be a strategic organ of the business. Most importantly, they must have a voice at the table that carries real responsibility, accountability, and authority.Start with your operating rhythm. If AI decisions are made at the edge without feedback loops into core planning, you're sprinting blindfolded with both arms tied behind your back. If your data foundation is not layered, labeled, and leveraged across every team, then your thinking is wishful and hopeful. If your frontline is not trained to trust and verify AI outputs, you will hit a stalling point.The next 12 months will define the next 12 years.And this transformation will be won by the early integrators and orchestrators.Runners, take your Mark! https://www.multifamilycollective.com

What if your hearing aid could listen to you, read the room, and fix the problem before your next appointment? We explore Omega AI's newest leap—Telehear AI—and how on‑device intelligence lets people request help in real time when noise, wind, or tricky spaces get in the way. Instead of waiting days for a follow‑up, users can compare new settings with their originals, choose what feels best, and keep moving, while clinicians still see the changes and refine care. This feature, of course, does not replace the role of the hearing care professional. We go deep on the sound engine first—directionality, spatial awareness, and DNN‑driven scene detection—because clarity is still the heart of hearing care. Then we widen the lens: fall detection keeps evolving, Balance Builder supports everyday stability, and translation is taking shape as a practical tool to bridge conversations. The dream of “Jarvis in your ear” starts to feel real when the hearing aid becomes a daily assistant that protects, informs, and adapts without adding friction. Comfort matters too; lighter, more discreet devices make it easy to forget you're wearing them, right up until they save the moment.Data is the quiet force behind these wins. Smarter data logging breaks listening lives into patterns that clinicians can act on—who's in wind all day, who's stuck in high noise, who's wearing less than they say. Those insights reduce returns, raise satisfaction, and turn fittings into living plans. We also share a candid look at where this is heading: a convergence of digital and traditional care where professionals remain central, devices handle minor tweaks on the fly, and the ear becomes a true superpower for communication, safety, and independence.If this vision resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who loves great audio tech, and leave a quick review telling us which feature you want next.

In this essential episode, Bryan Orr sits down with Elliot, the residential install supervisor at Kalos Services, to unpack a critical issue that's causing confusion among HVAC technicians, electricians, and inspectors alike: the new standards for breaker and conductor sizing on inverter-driven equipment. The conversation was sparked by Elliot's frustrating experience of having two inspectors in the same county fail the same installation for opposite reasons—one for an oversized breaker and another for an undersized breaker. This contradiction led to a deep dive into recent changes in UL standards and how they affect everyday HVAC installations. The heart of the issue stems from the transition to low-GWP refrigerants and the updated UL 60335-2-40 Edition 3 standard, which replaced the 1995 certification approach. This new standard introduced more conservative calculations for electrical characteristics, particularly affecting equipment using A2L refrigerants. The result? Data tags now show higher Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) ratings than before, even though the equipment itself hasn't changed—only the math used to calculate these values has shifted. This has created a puzzling situation where the MCA can be higher than the recommended breaker size, which seems counterintuitive to anyone familiar with traditional electrical principles. Bryan and Elliot clarify the fundamental rule that still applies: size your wire to the MCA and your breaker to the MOCP (Maximum Overcurrent Protector). The confusion arises because manufacturers like Mitsubishi are now including "recommended breaker" sizes on data tags that are lower than the MCA—a courtesy to contractors, not a code requirement. The higher MCA reflects conservative safety margins that account for extreme operating conditions, but in practice, inverter-driven systems have multiple built-in protections that prevent them from ever actually reaching these calculated amperage levels. The key takeaway is that contractors can safely install breakers at the recommended size without safety concerns, as long as the breaker's lugs are rated to accept the wire size required by the MCA. The episode also explores how inverter-driven equipment fundamentally differs from traditional PSC motors, particularly regarding locked rotor amps (now more accurately termed "inverter input") and voltage drop considerations. Unlike conventional motors that simply run slower with reduced voltage, inverter-driven compressors and ECM motors compensate by drawing more current to maintain performance, creating a potential compounding effect with voltage drop that installers need to understand—even though voltage drop itself isn't an enforceable NEC code requirement. Topics Covered: New UL 60335-2-40 Edition 3 standards and their impact on electrical calculations for HVAC equipment The relationship between MCA (Minimum Circuit Ampacity) and MOCP (Maximum Overcurrent Protector) and why they can now seem contradictory Recommended breaker sizes on modern data tags and why they may be lower than the MCA Handling inspector conflicts and failed inspections related to breaker sizing Differences between inverter-driven equipment and traditional PSC motors in electrical behavior The transition from "locked rotor amps" to "inverter input" terminology for modern equipment Voltage drop considerations with inverter-driven systems (NEC 210.19A and 215.2A) Why inverter-driven equipment draws more current at lower voltages compared to traditional motors Proper wire and breaker sizing for A2L refrigerant equipment (454B systems) NEC Section 440 requirements specific to air conditioning and refrigeration equipment Breaker lug ratings and ensuring they can accept the required wire size Practical advice for communicating with inspectors and resolving code disputes   Read the tech tip on this topic HERE.

The Packers claimed Trayvon Diggs off waivers, and while there's no rational reason to expect him to save the season, maybe it's time to embrace the irrational. We break down the salary cap implications, the circumstances of his Cowboys departure, and why the "we need bodies" argument might be the only one worth making. Beyond Diggs, we dive into all 14 roster moves, including intriguing practice squad addition Damien Martinez—a physical downhill runner with elite college production—plus the return of Desmond Ritter as QB4 depth. We also examine the first injury report of the week, where Jordan Love appears as a full participant and an illness continues spreading through the locker room. The real surprise comes from DVOA trajectory analysis comparing this Packers team to historical squads with similar seasonal paths. The results? Three of the four most comparable teams won the Super Bowl, including the 2008 Steelers, 2022 Chiefs, and 2010 Packers. Sometimes mediocre teams get lucky—why not us?

Send us a textThe ground is moving under our feet, and that's exactly why this conversation matters. We sit down with Sandy Carter to unpack a practical path through the AI hype: start with outcomes, feed models with clean, structured data, and never skip the human change that decides whether an initiative sticks or stalls. From executive playbooks to frontline tactics, we get specific about what works, what fails, and how to build trust when synthetic media blurs what's real.We dive into the convergence of AI and blockchain and why verification is becoming a core product feature. Deepfakes and misinformation are not just PR problems—they are customer experience problems. Provenance, identity, and ownership give teams a way to show their work and earn belief. Then we turn to discovery. SEO still matters, but GEO—generative engine optimization—is stealing the spotlight. Executives increasingly ask LLMs for the “top five” solutions and stop there. To make that list, brands need credible signals in the places models pull from: thoughtful Reddit threads, up-to-date Wikipedia entries, technical explainers, and answers crafted for natural questions, not just keywords. We talk tactics, from UTMs for answer engines to content designed for prompts, entities, and clarity.The future is humans plus machines. Agents collaborate, robots learn by watching, and even a pizza-delivery humanoid sparks new questions: if the robot selects the drink, who does the brand persuade—the family or the agent? As homes and workplaces adapt to new hardware, marketers will build for both human preference and agent defaults. Through it all, Sandy's message stays grounded: align AI to real business value, protect what must remain private, open what should be discoverable, and communicate clearly so people understand the why, the how, and the benefit.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on November 26, 2025.

In this final episode of 2025, Drew Brucker and Rory Flynn zoom out to dissect what actually mattered this year across Midjourney, Nano Banana Pro, ChatGPT Image 1.5, Weavy, video models, workflows, and the uncomfortable truth about how fast all of this is moving.They unpack the real inflection points no one labeled at the time. Why March quietly changed everything. Why Nano Banana Pro rewired image editing expectations. Why Veo 3 reset video. Why Midjourney still feels magicalWhy workflows (not models) are becoming the real creative advantage.Along the way, they spiral into mood boards, personalization hacks, node-based systems, AI video limitations, why Hollywood feels creatively bankrupt, how Grok quietly became a research weapon, and why Midjourney's next move might determine whether it stays an artist's playground or becomes a professional tool.It's opinionated. It's nerdy. It's honest. It's occasionally unhinged.And it's the clearest snapshot of where AI creativity actually stands heading into 2026.If you're trying to keep up, slow down, or figure out where to place your bets next year, this episode is your unfair advantage.---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour00:00 – Episode 60 kickoff and end-of-year reflections01:50 – From niche experiment to mainstream behavior04:00 – AI finally reaches non-technical families06:18 – Why working solo in AI can feel isolating09:03 – Music, creativity, and early signs of AI music adoption11:02 – How fast AI actually shipped in 202512:14 – 100+ major releases and why that number matters13:01 – The real start of image editing workflows14:46 – March 2025 was the quiet inflection point16:06 – Multi-modal chat changed prompting forever19:20 – Veo 3 and why video suddenly jumped ahead21:41 – Why Google quietly dominated 202523:00 – Why hype cycles now last 48 hours23:51 – Nano Banana Pro and precision image control26:02 – Grok as a real-time research engine27:49 – Why physics in AI video finally started working29:12 – Nodes, workflows, and why visualization matters30:26 – Why Nano Banana Pro felt like “AGI for images”31:26 – Will 2026 move even faster?32:25 – Release cadence, VC pressure, and reality checks34:03 – Images vs video: who's actually ahead36:18 – Why Grok might be the sleeper winner38:36 – Data, platforms, and why distribution matters41:28 – Consolidation and acquisitions are coming44:14 – What Midjourney must do next45:23 – Image editing as the make-or-break feature48:43 – Workflow fatigue and creative burnout52:50 – Personalization, mood boards, and creative joy56:44 – Why mood boards drove the best work of 202559:12 – Personalization profiles vs mood boards01:00:43 – Why Midjourney still feels different01:02:27 – Scale, permutations, and professional use cases01:06:36 – Resolution, editing, and real production constraints01:10:22 – Why small failures still matter01:13:00 – Hollywood, creativity, and AI backlash01:17:17 – Why creators beat platforms01:22:25 – Audio and voice as the next bottleneck01:23:55 – Constraint-driven prompting in 202601:30:14 – Looking back at January vs now01:38:23 – Final predictions and advice for 202601:42:34 – Season two wrap and sign-off

NIO ended 2025 up 26%, but the journey was wild. XPeng kept over-promising. OpenAI just became too big to fail. And $160 million in Nvidia chips got smuggled to China. This is my 2025 year-end review covering everything that mattered.Thank you for rocking with Courtside Financial all year. Happy New Year! Let me know what content you want to see in 2026.NIO'S 2025 FULL STORYNIO started at $4.55, peaked at $7.89 in October, closed at $5.50 - up 26% for the year.Key moments: February Onvo L60 image sparked 10% jump. March capital raise tanked stock to $3.75, but $4B Hong Kong offering funded growth. April brought Shen Fei as new Onvo president. July-August surge: L60 pre-sales drove 40% gain, third-gen ES8 launch added another 23% spike. September $1B raise initially dropped 9% but rallied 30% as investors recognized growth funding. Stock peaked October 2 at $7.89. November declined 24% as China subsidies ended. December 30 brought 2026 subsidy news, stock closed year at $5.50.Bottom line: NIO executed three-brand strategy, launched Onvo and Firefly, improved margins, raised capital twice. Now faces proving profitability at scale.XPENG'S OVER-PROMISING PROBLEMHe Xiaopeng announced "orders exceeded expectations" five times in 2025 - only MONA M03 delivered. New P7 peaked at 8,104 September units then crashed to 2,882 by November despite 40 units/hour capacity. G7 got 10,000 orders in 9 minutes but sales fell to 2,500-3,500 units while Tesla Model Y averaged 38,000.Service failures: 7,000+ owners complained after $5,000 chip upgrades caused system crashes. XPeng promised nationwide CNGP in 2022 - still only 5 cities despite customers paying $39,000 extra. Trust matters when markets get tough.OPENAI TOO BIG TO FAIL?SoftBank invested $41 billion in OpenAI on December 26, now owns 11%. Microsoft owns 27%. OpenAI valued $300-500 billion, not yet profitable. Committed to $1.4 trillion infrastructure spending. SoftBank sold entire $5.8B Nvidia stake to fund this.The question: Has OpenAI become too big to fail? If it fails, SoftBank, Microsoft, Oracle all hurt. Data centers, Nvidia's growth, entire AI buildout slows. System has to keep OpenAI alive because letting it fail craters too much. That's "too big to fail" - saw it with banks in 2008.OpenAI burns billions, revenue growing but so are costs. If AI hype slows, they have problems. But investors can't let them fail now, will keep funding betting revenue catches up. Risk is real when you build this big, this fast on this much investment.CHIP WARS: $160M SMUGGLING BUSTDOJ unsealed Operation Gatekeeper December 8. October 2024-May 2025: Smugglers moved $160M+ in Nvidia H100/H200 GPUs to China. These chips power AI, same ones OpenAI uses. Export-controlled, can't legally sell to China.How: Fake companies, falsified documents, relabeled chips as "Sandkyan," routed through multiple warehouses. May 28 raid in New Jersey caught three trucks picking up chips. Smugglers used group chat - when police arrived, chat said "dissolve group, delete everyone." Too late.Three arrested, one pleaded guilty facing 10 years. Estimates show 10,000 to hundreds of thousands chips smuggled in 2024.Why China needs them: Building domestic chips but years behind. 60%+ of Chinese AI models still run on Nvidia. Chinese companies pay 2x-5x premium, smugglers risk prison to supply.Trump twist: Same day as bust, Trump posted US would allow H200 exports if government gets 25% cut - exact chips being smuggled. Defense attorneys asked how they're national security threats when President approves export.Reality: Export controls don't work when incentives this strong. Continues until China develops competitive chips (years away), US loosens controls (Trump willing), or AI demand crashes (not happening).

It's New Year's Eve, Wednesday, December 31st, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Ugandan Muslims killed Christian evangelist Muslim extremists killed a Christian evangelist in Uganda earlier this month. Konkona Kasimu was a convert from Islam. He participated in multiple Christian-Muslim dialogues across Uganda. Several Muslims turned to Christ during one of these events on December 12. However, angry Muslims ambushed Kasimu that evening. He later died from the injuries he sustained during the attack. A local pastor told Morning Star News, “Kasimu was killed because of advancing the Kingdom of God. We have lost a great man who was well-versed in both the Quran and the Bible and used that knowledge to witness for Christ to many people.” Revelation 12:11 says, “And they overcame [the Devil] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” Evangelicalism on rise in Catholic Spain Evangelicalism continues to grow in the historically Catholic country of Spain. Evangelical Focus reports that Christianity is the most deeply rooted among minority religions in the country. There are 4,700 evangelical places of worship in Spain this year. That's up from 3,700 places of worship ten years ago. At the same time, secularization is advancing. Over 40% of the population say they do not identify with any religion.  400 sex-selective abortions in United Kingdom Life News reports that new data from the United Kingdom government suggests at least 400 sex-selective abortions have taken place in the country.  The government says killing unborn babies on the basis of their sex is illegal. However, the U.K.'s largest abortion provider is telling women that sex-selective abortion is not illegal.  Catherine Robinson with Right to Life UK noted, “This report is very likely to underestimate the number of sex-selective abortions in the UK. The true scale of sex-selective abortions in the UK, is in all likelihood, far higher than the figures suggest.” America blew up Venezuelan port loading boat with narcotics U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters on Monday that the U.S. carried out a strike on a port facility in Venezuela. He said the facility was being used to load boats with narcotics. If confirmed, this would be the first land-based attack by the U.S. in Venezuela.  CNN and the New York Times report that the CIA carried out the attack with a drone strike. Rising church attendance among Millennials and Gen Z Evangelist Franklin Graham  spoke to Fox News about rising church attendance among younger generations. Data shows that Millennials and Gen Z lead monthly church attendance compared to other generations. Listen to comments from Graham. GRAHAM: “I think Gen Z and Millennials have been fed the lie of socialism. And socialism is basically anti-God. They've been turned off, I think, by this, and they're asking themselves, ‘There's got to be something more.' Yes, they're going to church, but Bible sales are up. So, they're buying Bibles. They're reading for themselves.” Kentucky restored Ten Commandments monument at Capitol Kentucky restored a permanent monument of the Ten Commandments to the state Capitol grounds earlier this month. The monument was put up in 1971. It was moved for construction in the 1980s. The legislature passed a resolution to restore it in 2000. However, a federal appeals court order kept the monument from being displayed until recently. First Liberty was involved in the legal case to restore the monument. Roger Byron, Senior Counsel for First Liberty, said, “We congratulate the people of Kentucky for restoring a part of their history. There is a long tradition of public monuments, like this one, that recognize the unique and important role the Ten Commandments have played in state and national history.” Lutheran Bible Translators delivered new Bible to Ghana tribe And finally, the Komba people of Ghana received their complete Bible last month after years of translation work. Missionary work among the Komba began in the 1950s. In 2005, Lutheran Bible Translators began to translate the New Testament which was completed in 2014. The Old Testament translation began in 2015. Now, they have the entire Bible. One of the translators said, “Reading the Bible has become part of my people. They are reading it day in and day out, and they have taken it upon themselves to do so. They have learned to read, and now they can go out and preach because they can read the Bible, something they were unable to do in the past.” Romans 10:15 says, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, December 31st, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

How to Become Unrecognizable in 2026: The 5 Decisions Women Over 40 Need to Make Now If you're doing what you did last January and getting what you got last February (disappointed, frustrated, right back where you started), this episode is for you. I'm giving you the real talk about why your old weight loss strategies stopped working after 40. Spoiler: it's not because you lack discipline. You lack DATA. In this episode, I'm breaking down the five specific decisions that will actually move the needle on your weight loss, your energy, and your body composition. These aren't the surface fixes you've been trying. These are the foundational shifts that make everything else work. One of my clients literally cleaned her living room and lost 10 pounds. I know it sounds wild, but I explain exactly how your external environment is directly connected to your internal chaos (and your food choices). Plus, I'm sharing my own journey with insulin resistance. My fasting insulin went from 6.8 to 4.8 over 20 months, and that shift changed everything about how my body burns fat, regulates appetite, and maintains energy. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why your doctor's version of "fine" is keeping you fat, exhausted, and hormonally wrecked (and what labs you actually need to request) The birth control vs. HRT double standard that no one talks about (birth control has 10X the clot risk but doctors hand it out like Skittles) How cleaning ONE space in your home can break the mental clutter that's sabotaging your food choices (this is the breakthrough most women never see coming) The exact protein target you need to preserve muscle and actually change your body composition after 40 (hint: it's way more than you're eating now) Why daily weigh-ins are sabotaging you and what to track instead (weekly averages will save your sanity) How to know if you're a simple case or complex case (and whether you need group coaching or private 1:1 support) The real cost of NOT solving your weight loss struggle this year (it's not just financial) If you're tired of spinning your wheels and ready to work WITH your body instead of against it, this episode gives you the complete roadmap.

Send me a messageMost companies say they're tackling Scope 3. Then they rely on averages and hope for the best. That's not decarbonisation. That's denial with spreadsheets.In this episode, I'm joined by Paul Byrnes, CEO of Mavarick AI, to dig into one of the most stubborn blockers to real emissions reduction: bad data across global supply chains. Paul brings a rare mix to the table. Deep manufacturing roots, serious machine learning expertise, and a refreshingly low tolerance for AI theatre. We focus squarely on the climate challenge that keeps executives awake at night. How to cut Scope 3 emissions when suppliers are overloaded, data is unreliable, and margins are thin.You'll hear why most Scope 3 programmes stall before they deliver a single tonne of abatement. We dig into how spend-based accounting can introduce error rates of up to 40%, masking risk instead of revealing it. And why primary supplier data is fast becoming table stakes for any credible net zero strategy.We also unpack where AI genuinely helps emissions reduction, and where it doesn't. From cleaning contaminated data sets, to identifying real decarbonisation levers with financial and environmental ROI, this conversation is about using technology to move from reporting to action.You might be surprised to learn why supplier engagement only works when there's a clear win for suppliers themselves, and why emissions reduction scales fastest when it also improves cost, efficiency, or resilience. No greenwash. No magic bullets. Just physics, data, and incentives aligned.

What if the students who say they're “good” are the ones we need to check on the most?In this episode of unMASKing with Male Educators, Ashanti Branch pulls back the curtain on what young men are actually carrying beneath the surface, using real words, real data, and real stories from the Global Young Men's Conference and the Million Mask Movement.Drawing from over two decades of work with young men, Ashanti walks listeners through powerful mask reflections created by students across the Bay Area. These masks reveal a striking disconnect between what young men show the world, happy, funny, kind, and what they hide, sadness, anger, exhaustion, loneliness, fear. Through stories, statistics, and lived experience, Ashanti challenges educators, parents, and systems to stop mistaking compliance for wellness and silence for safety.This episode is both a wake-up call and an invitation: to slow down, ask better questions, create emotionally safer spaces, and truly mean it when we ask, “How are you doing?”Why “I'm good” is often a mask, not the truthWhat young men's masks reveal about loneliness, sadness, and emotional overloadThe dangerous gap between how students appear and how they actually feelWhy emotional safety is foundational to attendance, behavior, and academic successHow fear, violence, and instability shape students' ability to show up to schoolThe hidden emotional labor young men carry to protect others from worryingWhy humor, kindness, and being “the funny one” can be survival strategiesHow social media, isolation, and consumption culture deepen disconnectionWhat educators miss when curriculum matters more than connectionHow the Million Mask Movement helps schools get to the root, not just the symptomsWhy listening—not fixing—is often the most powerful interventionA call to parents, educators, and leaders to stop staying silentIn this episode, Ashanti explores:(0:00) Welcome to unMASKing with Male Educators(0:41) Why this conversation matters as we head into 2026(2:00) Data as words: listening to what young men aren't saying(5:04) Voices from the Global Young Men's Conference(6:28) Introducing the Million Mask reflections(12:00) Why students don't show up when they don't feel safe(15:12) Survival brains, fear, and school attendance(16:30) Front-of-mask data: happy, funny, kind(17:09) Back-of-mask data: sad, angry, tired, alone(19:34) What “happy” students are hiding(22:41) The emotional cost of never being asked twice(24:55) The funny kid: humor as armor(27:18) Social media, isolation, and identity fragmentation(30:47) Why words matter more than spreadsheets(33:15) Invitation to make a mask and bring this work to schools(35:33) Speaking truth to systems and school boards(38:00) A call to parents, educators, and advocates(40:00) Closing reflections and what's coming nextResources & Ways to EngageThe Million Mask Movement – Create a mask anonymously: https://millionmask.orgEducator Portal – Bring mask-making and emotional data into your schoolGlobal Young Men's Conference – Youth voice, belonging, and healing spacesEver Forward Club – Brotherhood, connection, and mentorshipConnect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward Clubhttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/support#unmaskingwithmaleeducators #millionmaskmovement #takingoffthemask #emotionalSafety #SEL #youthvoice #schoolculture #mentalhealthineducation

Episode 1917: Sherice Jacob breaks down the misunderstood concept of data quality, emphasizing that perfection isn't the goal, relevance, accuracy, and consistency are. Through clear steps like data profiling, error management, and adherence to key quality dimensions, she offers a practical roadmap for businesses to improve decisions, customer experience, and ROI. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://neilpatel.com/blog/data-quality/ Quotes to ponder: "Data quality is very much a delicate balancing act, juggling and judging accuracy and completeness." "The first step toward successful integration is seeing where the data is and then combining that data in a way that's consistent." "Taking the time now to map out what data quality means to your company or organization can create a ripple-effect of improved customer service, a better customer experience, a higher conversion rate and longer customer retention."  

This is the final episode of Own It for 2025 and Samantha isn't wrapping the year with a tidy bow… she's calling you out and calling you forward.This episode is about outgrowing who you used to be—and having the courage to admit it. Not intellectually. Not conceptually. But operationally. In your business. In your leadership. In your identity.Samantha breaks down why your past isn't something to escape—it's data. Data that shows you exactly where you've been capping yourself, over-functioning, or playing a role that no longer fits. She shares personal examples of stepping out of being “everything to everyone” and into the real work of CEO-level leadership, along with client stories that expose the cost of staying stuck in outdated roles.If you've been feeling burned out, restless, plateaued, or quietly resentful of the business or life you built—this episode is your permission slip to stop forcing it and promote yourself.Because leadership isn't about doing more.It's about becoming different.

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified. Happy December. Today we are doing a throwback to one of my favorite episodes, all about three must-have data tools for individual counseling. Data collection does not have to be complicated or time consuming. Having simple systems in place allows you to track student progress, guide your sessions, and advocate for your role with confidence. In this episode, I am sharing my three go-to data collection tools for individual counseling and how to use them effectively. Self Assessments Self assessments are pre and post surveys that help you understand how students perceive their own counseling progress. Each question should align with the objective you are teaching during that session, which helps ensure your data is purposeful and meaningful. Questions should be written in age appropriate language and include clear directions at the top. Be sure to include the student's name and the date, and remind students that there are no right or wrong answers. Self assessments can be completed on paper or through a Google Form, which allows you to easily view results and identify trends. These assessments help highlight skill deficits and guide future instruction. Student Rating Scales Student rating scales provide quick insight into how students are feeling session to session. A simple one-to-ten scale works well, allowing students to color in or mark how they are feeling that day. Using large block fonts and visual elements can make this activity more engaging for students. Rating scales are typically completed at the start of each session and provide valuable data that is fast and easy to collect. Behavior Surveys Behavior surveys are sent to teachers and parents to gather information about student behavior across different settings. These surveys should include the topic being addressed, the student's name, the rater's name, the rater's relationship to the student, and the date. Behavior surveys are given at the start of services and again at the end to measure growth over time. Because students often behave differently at home and at school, input from both teachers and caregivers is essential. Google Forms work especially well for collecting and organizing this data. Using Your Data Once you have collected your data, it is important to use it intentionally. Data can be showcased on a data wall displayed in a high traffic area of the school to help bring awareness to the counseling profession and the services you provide. Data can also be used to create individual end of year reports and to drive instruction as you refine and improve your counseling programs. If you are looking for low prep, done-for-you assessments, be sure to check out my individual counseling curriculum.   Resources Mentioned: Join IMPACT Individual counseling super bundle Connect with Rachel: TpT Store Blog Instagram Facebook Page Facebook Group Pinterest Youtube   More About School Counseling Simplified: School Counseling Simplified is a podcast offering easy to implement strategies for busy school counselors.

In this Season 2 finale, Justin asks: 'What's next for the Surprising Rebirth?'When the podcast series launched in 2023, many were skeptical of a 'Surprising Rebirth'. However, two years later, some say statistical evidence is pointing towards a 'Quiet Revival'. But there has been pushback too... Justin interrogates the data, hearing objections and responses from sociologist David Voas and Bible Society researcher Rhiannon McAleer.Peter Dray of IFES charts Gen Z spirituality, while podcaster Elizabeth Oldfield and journalist James Marriott discuss the rise of 'Full Fat Faith' converts. Australian church leader Mark Sayers and British MP Danny Kruger also tackle the vexed question of whether far right politics is co-opting Christianity as the search for a better story continues.

This episode of the FreightWaves Morning Minute examines Amazon's recent support for Flowers Foods in a Supreme Court case that could redefine legal protections for local delivery drivers. The retail giant argues that single-state drivers do not qualify for the federal arbitration exemption reserved for interstate transportation workers. We also report on the abrupt closure of Queen Transportation, a North Carolina carrier that ceased operations over the Christmas holiday. The shutdown left nearly 90 drivers jobless and highlights the severe liquidity pressures currently facing the trucking industry. Finally, we look at the logistics real estate boom in Arizona, signaled by Walmart's $152 million acquisition of a massive industrial complex in Glendale. Data from the Phoenix market indicates that local trucking capacity is tightening as major investments reshape the region's supply chain infrastructure. Learn more about your ad choices.

Strap in and grab your NG tubes, because the EGS team in TIGER Country is taking you on a fast, forceful, and evidence-packed ride through 15 years of global SBO literature. From the OG 2011 Zielinski model to the latest 2025 predictive tools sweeping across Europe and North America, we're breaking down what matters when the bowel stops behaving and the clock starts ticking.  Join Dr. Rushabh Dev and the Acute Care Surgery crew at the University of Missouri as they tackle the most common EGS consult in America with humor, data, and real-world pearls. Get ready for CT red flags, strangulation scores, Gastrografin truths, and the eternal battle between “operate early” vs. “wait it out.” Whether you're a med student trying to decode your first CT or a seasoned attending debating the next Gastrografin challenge, this episode delivers the insights you need to Dominate the Day. Participants: Dr. Rushabh Dev FACS (Moderator, Surgical Attending) – Assistant Professor of Surgery, Associate PD ACS & SCCM Fellowship, SICU Medical Director, Lieutenant Commander United States Navy Reserve   Dr. Raymond Okeke; Acute Care Surgery & SCCM Fellow  Dr. Eugene Ismailov, General Surgery Resident; PGY 5 Dr. Brycen Ratcliffe, General Surgery Resident; PGY 4 Dr. Desra Flecher, General Surgery Resident; PGY 3 Objectives: 1. Identify the core clinical and CT predictors of operative need in SBO including mesenteric edema, free fluid, closed-loop obstruction, lack of enhancement, and feces sign absence — and understand how these features have remained consistent across 15 years of research. 2. Compare major international SBO predictive models (Zielinski, Geneva Severity Score, STRISK, and NOFA) and describe how they inform real-time decision-making in North American acute care surgery. 3. Apply evidence-based algorithms, including the 2025 JTACS EGS pathway to structure SBO evaluation, integrate Water-Soluble Contrast studies, and avoid delayed surgery in high-risk patients. 4. Evaluate the long-term impact of operative vs. non-operative management with emphasis on recurrence risk, timing between episodes, and how to incorporate recurrence data into patient counseling. 5. Synthesize 15 years of evolving SBO literature into practical bedside strategies by balancing red-flag findings, risk-model guidance, and individualized clinical judgment to optimize outcomes.

Original Release Date: November 13, 2025Live from Morgan Stanley's European Tech, Media and Telecom Conference in Barcelona, our roundtable of analysts discusses tech disruptions and datacenter growth, and how Europe factors in.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Paul Walsh: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Paul Walsh, Morgan Stanley's European Head of Research Product. Today we return to my conversation with Adam Wood. Head of European Technology and Payments, Emmet Kelly, Head of European Telco and Data Centers, and Lee Simpson, Head of European Technology. We were live on stage at Morgan Stanley's 25th TMT Europe conference. We had so much to discuss around the themes of AI enablers, semiconductors, and telcos. So, we are back with a concluding episode on tech disruption and data center investments. It's Thursday the 13th of November at 8am in Barcelona. After speaking with the panel about the U.S. being overweight AI enablers, and the pockets of opportunity in Europe, I wanted to ask them about AI disruption, which has been a key theme here in Europe. I started by asking Adam how he was thinking about this theme. Adam Wood: It's fascinating to see this year how we've gone in most of those sectors to how positive can GenAI be for these companies? How well are they going to monetize the opportunities? How much are they going to take advantage internally to take their own margins up? To flipping in the second half of the year, mainly to, how disruptive are they going to be? And how on earth are they going to fend off these challenges? Paul Walsh: And I think that speaks to the extent to which, as a theme, this has really, you know, built momentum. Adam Wood: Absolutely. And I mean, look, I think the first point, you know, that you made is absolutely correct – that it's very difficult to disprove this. It's going to take time for that to happen. It's impossible to do in the short term. I think the other issue is that what we've seen is – if we look at the revenues of some of the companies, you know, and huge investments going in there. And investors can clearly see the benefit of GenAI. And so investors are right to ask the question, well, where's the revenue for these businesses? You know, where are we seeing it in info services or in IT services, or in enterprise software. And the reality is today, you know, we're not seeing it. And it's hard for analysts to point to evidence that – well, no, here's the revenue base, here's the benefit that's coming through. And so, investors naturally flip to, well, if there's no benefit, then surely, we should focus on the risk. So, I think we totally understand, you know, why people are focused on the negative side of things today. I think there are differences between the sub-sectors. I mean, I think if we look, you know, at IT services, first of all, from an investor point of view, I think that's been pretty well placed in the losers' buckets and people are most concerned about that sub-sector… Paul Walsh: Something you and the global team have written a lot about. Adam Wood: Yeah, we've written about, you know, the risk of disruption in that space, the need for those companies to invest, and then the challenges they face. But I mean, if we just keep it very, very simplistic. If Gen AI is a technology that, you know, displaces labor to any extent – companies that have played labor arbitrage and provide labor for the last 20 - 25 years, you know, they're going to have to make changes to their business model. So, I think that's understandable. And they're going to have to demonstrate how they can change and invest and produce a business model that addresses those concerns. I'd probably put info services in the middle. But the challenge in that space is you have real identifiable companies that have emerged, that have a revenue base and that are challenging a subset of the products of those businesses. So again, it's perfectly understandable that investors would worry. In that context, it's not a potential threat on the horizon. It's a real threat that exists today against certainly their businesses. I think software is probably the most interesting. I'd put it in the kind of final bucket where I actually believe… Well, I think first of all, we certainly wouldn't take the view that there's no risk of disruption and things aren't going to change. Clearly that is going to be the case. I think what we'd want to do though is we'd want to continue to use frameworks that we've used historically to think about how software companies differentiate themselves, what the barriers to entry are. We don't think we need to throw all of those things away just because we have GenAI, this new set of capabilities. And I think investors will come back most easily to that space. Paul Walsh: Emmet, you talked a little bit there before about the fact that you haven't seen a huge amount of progress or additional insight from the telco space around AI; how AI is diffusing across the space. Do you get any discussions around disruption as it relates to telco space? Emmet Kelly: Very, very little. I think the biggest threat that telcos do see is – it is from the hyperscalers. So, if I look at and separate the B2C market out from the B2B, the telcos are still extremely dominant in the B2C space, clearly. But on the B2B space, the hyperscalers have come in on the cloud side, and if you look at their market share, they're very, very dominant in cloud – certainly from a wholesale perspective. So, if you look at the cloud market shares of the big three hyperscalers in Europe, this number is courtesy of my colleague George Webb. He said it's roughly 85 percent; that's how much they have of the cloud space today. The telcos, what they're doing is they're actually reselling the hyperscale service under the telco brand name. But we don't see much really in terms of the pure kind of AI disruption, but there are concerns definitely within the telco space that the hyperscalers might try and move from the B2B space into the B2C space at some stage. And whether it's through virtual networks, cloudified networks, to try and get into the B2C space that way. Paul Walsh: Understood. And Lee maybe less about disruption, but certainly adoption, some insights from your side around adoption across the tech hardware space? Lee Simpson: Sure. I think, you know, it's always seen that are enabling the AI move, but, but there is adoption inside semis companies as well, and I think I'd point to design flow. So, if you look at the design guys, they're embracing the agentic system thing really quickly and they're putting forward this capability of an agent engineer, so like a digital engineer. And it – I guess we've got to get this right. It is going to enable a faster time to market for the design flow on a chip. So, if you have that design flow time, that time to market. So, you're creating double the value there for the client. Do you share that 50-50 with them? So, the challenge is going to be exactly as Adam was saying, how do you monetize this stuff? So, this is kind of the struggle that we're seeing in adoption. Paul Walsh: And Emmet, let's move to you on data centers. I mean, there are just some incredible numbers that we've seen emerging, as it relates to the hyperscaler investment that we're seeing in building out the infrastructure. I know data centers is something that you have focused tremendously on in your research, bringing our global perspectives together. Obviously, Europe sits within that. And there is a market here in Europe that might be more challenged. But I'm interested to understand how you're thinking about framing the whole data center story? Implications for Europe. Do European companies feed off some of that U.S. hyperscaler CapEx? How should we be thinking about that through the European lens? Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. So, big question, Paul. What… Paul Walsh: We've got a few minutes! Emmet Kelly: We've got a few minutes. What I would say is there was a great paper that came out from Harvard just two weeks ago, and they were looking at the scale of data center investments in the United States. And clearly the U.S. economy is ticking along very, very nicely at the moment. But this Harvard paper concluded that if you take out data center investments, U.S. economic growth today is actually zero. Paul Walsh: Wow. Emmet Kelly: That is how big the data center investments are. And what we've said in our research very clearly is if you want to build a megawatt of data center capacity that's going to cost you roughly $35 million today. Let's put that number out there. 35 million. Roughly, I'd say 25… Well, 20 to 25 million of that goes into the chips. But what's really interesting is the other remaining $10 million per megawatt, and I like to call that the picks and shovels of data centers; and I'm very convinced there is no bubble in that area whatsoever.So, what's in that area? Firstly, the first building block of a data center is finding a powered land bank. And this is a big thing that private equity is doing at the moment. So, find some real estate that's close to a mass population that's got a good fiber connection. Probably needs a little bit of water, but most importantly needs some power. And the demand for that is still infinite at the moment. Then beyond that, you've got the construction angle and there's a very big shortage of labor today to build the shells of these data centers. Then the third layer is the likes of capital goods, and there are serious supply bottlenecks there as well.And I could go on and on, but roughly that first $10 million, there's no bubble there. I'm very, very sure of that. Paul Walsh: And we conducted some extensive survey work recently as part of your analysis into the global data center market. You've sort of touched on a few of the gating factors that the industry has to contend with. That survey work was done on the operators and the supply chain, as it relates to data center build out. What were the key conclusions from that? Emmet Kelly: Well, the key conclusion was there is a shortage of power for these data centers, and… Paul Walsh: Which I think… Which is a sort of known-known, to some extent. Emmet Kelly: it is a known-known, but it's not just about the availability of power, it's the availability of green power. And it's also the price of power is a very big factor as well because energy is roughly 40 to 45 percent of the operating cost of running a data center. So, it's very, very important. And of course, that's another area where Europe doesn't screen very well.I was looking at statistics just last week on the countries that have got the highest power prices in the world. And unsurprisingly, it came out as UK, Ireland, Germany, and that's three of our big five data center markets. But when I looked at our data center stats at the beginning of the year, to put a bit of context into where we are…Paul Walsh: In Europe… Emmet Kelly: In Europe versus the rest. So, at the end of [20]24, the U.S. data center market had 35 gigawatts of data center capacity. But that grew last year at a clip of 30 percent. China had a data center bank of roughly 22 gigawatts, but that had grown at a rate of just 10 percent. And that was because of the chip issue. And then Europe has capacity, or had capacity at the end of last year, roughly 7 to 8 gigawatts, and that had grown at a rate of 10 percent. Now, the reason for that is because the three big data center markets in Europe are called FLAP-D. So, it's Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin. We had to put an acronym on it. So, Flap-D. Good news. I'm sitting with the tech guys. They've got even more acronyms than I do, in their sector, so well done them. Lee Simpson: Nothing beats FLAP-D. Paul Walsh: Yes. Emmet Kelly: It's quite an achievement. But what is interesting is three of the big five markets in Europe are constrained. So, Frankfurt, post the Ukraine conflict. Ireland, because in Ireland, an incredible statistic is data centers are using 25 percent of the Irish power grid. Compared to a global average of 3 percent.Now I'm from Dublin, and data centers are running into conflict with industry, with housing estates. Data centers are using 45 percent of the Dublin grid, 45. So, there's a moratorium in building data centers there. And then Amsterdam has the classic semi moratorium space because it's a small country with a very high population. So, three of our five markets are constrained in Europe. What is interesting is it started with the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. The UK has made great strides at attracting data center money and AI capital into the UK and the current Prime Minister continues to do that. So, the UK has definitely gone; moved from the middle lane into the fast lane. And then Macron in France. He hosted an AI summit back in February and he attracted over a 100 billion euros of AI and data center commitments. Paul Walsh: And I think if we added up, as per the research that we published a few months ago, Europe's announced over 350 billion euros, in proposed investments around AI. Emmet Kelly: Yeah, absolutely. It's a good stat. Now where people can get a little bit cynical is they can say a couple of things. Firstly, it's now over a year since the Mario Draghi report came out. And what's changed since? Absolutely nothing, unfortunately. And secondly, when I look at powering AI, I like to compare Europe to what's happening in the United States. I mean, the U.S. is giving access to nuclear power to AI. It started with the three Mile Island… Paul Walsh: Yeah. The nuclear renaissance is… Emmet Kelly: Nuclear Renaissance is absolutely huge. Now, what's underappreciated is actually Europe has got a massive nuclear power bank. It's right up there. But unfortunately, we're decommissioning some of our nuclear power around Europe, so we're going the wrong way from that perspective. Whereas President Trump is opening up the nuclear power to AI tech companies and data centers. Then over in the States we also have gas and turbines. That's a very, very big growth area and we're not quite on top of that here in Europe. So, looking at this year, I have a feeling that the Americans will probably increase their data center capacity somewhere between – it's incredible – somewhere between 35 and 50 percent. And I think in Europe we're probably looking at something like 10 percent again. Paul Walsh: Okay. Understood. Emmet Kelly: So, we're growing in Europe, but we're way, way behind as a starting point. And it feels like the others are pulling away. The other big change I'd highlight is the Chinese are really going to accelerate their data center growth this year as well. They've got their act together and you'll see them heading probably towards 30 gigs of capacity by the end of next year. Paul Walsh: Alright, we're out of time. The TMT Edge is alive and kicking in Europe. I want to thank Emmett, Lee and Adam for their time and I just want to wish everybody a great day today. Thank you.(Applause) That was my conversation with Adam, Emmett and Lee. Many thanks again to them.
