Podcasts about DBS

Deciding whether to move forward with deep brain stimulation can feel like a huge step.In this episode, we talk with Kelly Geyer about his Parkinson's journey, what led him to start considering DBS, and how he worked through the decision. Kelly shares what the evaluation process was like, what he hopes DBS will improve, what it can't fix, and some of the emotional questions that come with making a decision like this.We also talk about device options, surgery, long-term maintenance, personality changes, expectations, and why having a medical team you trust matters so much.If you're considering DBS—or just starting to wonder whether it could someday be an option for you—Kelly's experience offers a really honest look at what goes into that decision.Chapters00:00 – Meet Kelly and His Parkinson's Story03:18 – When Medication Wasn't Enough05:40 – When DBS Entered the Conversation06:37 – What the DBS Evaluation Really Looks Like08:28 – The Emotional Side of Saying Yes to DBS11:15 – What Kelly Hopes DBS Will Change12:40 – Understanding What DBS Can—and Can't—Do18:49 – Surgery, Device Options and Battery Life24:58 – Kelly's Advice for Anyone Considering DBS25:24 – Finding Support in the Parkinson's CommunityThis episode was brought to you by Changing Parkinson's.

This podcast is about a collaboration. Bain & Company, DBS, and Vriens & Partners joined hands to prepare this report on Southeast Asia, with analysis of recent developments and scenarios about the next decade. I worked with Bain’s Ravi Vijayaraghavan, Senior Partner, and Hans Vriens, Founder and Managing Partner of Vriens & Partners on this report, with strong support from several analysts in the three firms. You can download the report here. In the podcast, I go over the salient points of the report, flagging the innovative scenario analysis tool deployed. Southeast Asian economies have held up remarkably well despite recent turbulence, but structural differences across countries are widening the quality and concentration of growth. Our base case forecast for 2026 to 2035 remains broadly intact at 4.8% in this updated edition, but with widened range of possible outcomes, amid shifting global conditions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

「東京都、公立学校職員の性犯罪歴の有無を確認へ　子どもと接しない業務への転換など検討」　東京都は公立学校で働く全ての教職員を対象に、性犯罪歴の有無を確認する方針です。都教育委員会によりますと、対象となるのは都内の公立学校約2100校に勤務する常勤教職員約7万人です。教職員には性犯罪歴の有無について申告書の提出を求めるほか、今後性犯罪を行わないことを誓約する宣誓や署名も求める方針です。性犯罪歴が確認された場合には、子どもと直接接しない業務への配置転換などを検討するとしています。子どもに関わる仕事に就く人の性犯罪歴を雇用主が確認できる「日本版DBS」が12月から始まるのを前に、都教委は独自の取り組みとして子どもへの被害防止につなげたい考えです。

Lance Alexander speaks with Cheng Chye Hsern, Head of Investment, Providend, about the US Federal Reserve’s latest interest rate hike and where rates could be heading next. With Singapore T-bill yields rising, should investors be parking more cash in T-bills, what are the risks, and what other options are worth considering? They also examine what higher interest rates mean for Singapore REITs and the three local banks - DBS, OCBC and UOB. Should investors rethink their holdings? Plus, why has gold come under pressure despite persistent inflation, and does it still deserve a place in investors’ portfolios?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Junior year homecoming with my twins gave me 1 win and 1 heartbreak as a mom living with Parkinson's — and a DBS win for now.I made my daughter Kate's bouquet with her, but I couldn't pin my son Ben's boutonniere because of slowness in my fingers. If you know that feeling, this one's for you.

The gospel worker from China was stunned by how many biblical resources were available to Christians in America. He created a plan to scan one Bible commentary onto CDs that could be carried back into China and copied for underground Christians there. But he needed help. He reached out to find a more technically capable person to help with the process – and an international ministry was birthed! Ken Bitgood was the young man recruited to help with that scanning project. Today he and Digital Bible Society are distributing Scripture resources in more than 4,500 languages! When Ken first became a follower of Jesus, he was encouraged to live in God's Word. He'll tell how he did that (with the help of a car stereo) and how it birthed in him a passion to see people of all nations, tribes, and tongues access the riches of the Bible and Christian resources to encourage and edify the Body of Christ around the world. In their 25th year of ministry, the Digital Bible Society is working alongside more than 400 organisations to distribute resources, free and free to copy, in over 6,000 languages. Ken will share a story of a man from Beijing he met at a conference, who pointed to the DBS resources and said, "This is what put me in jail!" You'll hear more of Ken's heart to see labourers in the harvest fields as he shares his belief that every language should have God's Word translated for them in his lifetime.

The Detroit Lions must simplify coverage and play their drafted defensive backs against the New York Jets in Week 3. Detroit allowed 71 points in two games, and working out veterans Jordan Fuller and Jalen Mills does not fix communication issues. Youth, clarity, and accountability win snaps and the game. What is the single biggest defensive fix? Simplify the coverage rules and play the young corners now. As Jeff Risdon noted, the defense's primary issue is coordination between cornerbacks, safeties, and linebackers, not pure talent. That means giving snaps to Detroit Lions cornerback Ennis Rakestraw, Detroit Lions cornerback Keith Abney, and Detroit Lions cornerback Nick Whiteside from the practice squad so the group can grow together. Risdon said the scheme has been hurt by too many moving parts that do not see plays the same way. Accountability is already there. Detroit Lions linebacker Jack Campbell owned a rough outing, and Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell channels that energy productively. Tightening calls and letting the invested youngsters execute them is the clearest path to better play. Should the Lions sign veteran DB help after the tryouts? Not as the primary solution. Jeremy Fowler reported Detroit worked out safety Jordan Fuller and defensive back Jalen Mills, but stopgaps do not solve communication. Play the kids first, then supplement as needed. Detroit Lions cornerback Raq Ya-Sin has been exposed through two games. As Risdon said, the team knows what he is right now, and it is not starting caliber. If Ennis Rakestraw or Keith Abney are healthy scratches again, that signals the organization does not see them as roster-worthy contributors. Decide it on the field. What about Brian Branch, Kirby Joseph, and takeaways? Detroit Lions defensive back Brian Branch can begin practicing this week, and Risdon is optimistic there. Detroit Lions safety Kirby Joseph remains uncertain, so plan as if he is not returning, then adjust if he does. The defense needs takeaways to flip games. One play illustrates it. Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson forced a strip sack on the first drive in Buffalo that Detroit did not recover. A recovery changes the entire night. Against the Jets, simplify the coverage behind the rush and finish turnover chances. What defines Week 3 vs the Jets? Win by at least a touchdown. Risdon said great teams bury lesser ones, and this is a measuring stick game. If it comes down to a Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates 55 yarder in the final minute, the standard was not met. Detroit's offense should separate. With Detroit Lions offensive tackle Blake Miller expected back, protection cleans up and the Lions can keep drives alive. Buffalo looks excellent and Josh Allen is playing at an MVP level, but that context does not change the mandate now. Handle business, simplify on defense, start the drafted DBs, and make Week 3 the springboard. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #buffalobills #newyorkjets #aidanhutchinson #dancampbell #jackcampbell #brianbranch #kirbyjoseph #raqya-sin #jordanfuller #jalenmills #jakebates #ennisrakestraw #keithabney #joshallen Learn more about your ad choices.

If you have Parkinson's, chances are you've thought about falling—or perhaps you've already experienced one. A fall can be more than just a bruise or a broken bone. It can affect confidence, independence and the willingness to keep moving. And once you become afraid of falling, it can be tempting to do less, which can create its own challenges. For Falls Prevention Week, September 21–25, this episode looks at the connection between Parkinson's and falls. Why do we fall? What role do freezing, balance problems and medications play? Can exercise and physical therapy really help? And what changes can we make at home to reduce the risk? I spoke with Jennie Alex, PT at The Parkinson's Fitness Project and Daily Dose PD. She helped us understand balance issues in Episode 135. We explore these questions and share practical strategies for people with Parkinson's and their care partners. The goal isn't to stop living because we're afraid of falling—it's to find ways to keep moving safely and confidently. https://theparkinsonsfitnessproject.com/ https://www.dailydosepd.com/ Thank you to our sponsor – Boston Scientific, the maker of Vercise Genus, a Deep Brain Stimulation or DBS system.

The 49ers dismantled the Rams in nearly every way possible. But, they did incur a few injuries.Purdy to Evans looked good. CMC and Black looked like a nice 1-2 punch in the running game. DBs looked like they had more confidence. And Fred Warner might the one of the most fun players to watch play football.Plus, a full reaction to the teams that surprised us and the ones that disappointed us in Week 1.Now, it's on to Week 2.Let's go!!

This was a fun show to do. The guys react to the huge announcement that the Miami Hurricanes are flipping back to Nike after 12 years with Adidas. It's a ton of money (over $200 million), and a huge deal made without an Athletic Director in place. It's a big deal for the university and the fans. The ACC managed to release the 2027 conference opponents under the dark of night. The Beast brings it up and Cam was surprised. It's ok, the Miami schedule is interesting. The home schedule doesn't seem that enticing, but that's an issue for another day. In segment two, we breakdown Miami's game against a decent Wake Forest team. Miami is missing three DBs. Is that a concern? Miami's staff thinks it is an opportunity. Wake QB Gio Lopez is a dynamic dual-threat QB. They have some players on both sides of the ball, but we think Miami will be up to the task. Miami is in the heads of Notre Dame fans. That's all that needs to be said.

In this episode, Aila Tasse explores how Jesus modelled leadership and developed ordinary disciples into movement leaders. Developing Leaders Jesus invested in different levels of leadership—from his inner three, to the twelve, the seventy-two, the 120 and the multitudes. Likewise, DMM leadership grows from people of peace and DBS facilitators through to movement leaders and catalysts who can be sent cross-culturally to catalyse new movements. Aila refers to these levels (0-5) of DMM leadership in this episode Jesus' Process of Developing Leaders Discovery scriptures to look at on how Jesus developed leaders Drawing on Matthew 4:19, Aila explains how Jesus developed leaders through life-on-life relationships. He modelled leadership, trained and equipped his disciples, empowered them, mentored them and eventually released them to lead. Aila shares how releasing leaders especially involves risk. Yet disciples are learners, so leaders must be free to attempt new things, make mistakes and “fail forward.” From Jerusalem to the Nations Acts shows the danger of growing internally (adding) while losing sight of the Great Commission (multiplying). God's intention was always for the gospel to move from Jerusalem to Judea, Samaria and the ends of the earth. With people from many nations now living in our cities, Aila challenges us to recognise the opportunity before us: find people of peace, develop them as leaders and release them to reach their own communities—and potentially back into their nations! Characteristics of Movement Leaders Movement leaders are marked by passion for God and the lost, vision for the Great Commission, commitment to DMM and their team, and a willingness to remain “learnable.” Takeaway question: How are you keeping your eyes on the multipliers God has already placed around you?

In this episode, Ray Cochrane digs into Anthropic’s Model Hardware Standard. It is a shared driver that lets an AI agent run real lab equipment, from pipetting robots to the lasers inside a quantum computer. He also covers OpenAI’s builder’s guide to GPT-5.6, Google’s new Expert Intelligence book feature, Apple’s M5 Ultra Mac Studio, and a judge’s order forcing Google to stop hiding rival app stores. Finally, he weighs in on Apple’s proposed 15 percent link-out fee, Meta’s Australia numbers, the White House deputizing private hackers, and why rivers obey a 1957 math rule. – Want to start a podcast?

He is hunting for tickets to Michigan for his dad’s anniversary, and he has been learning Blender and Godot on the side, mostly modeling and blocking out levels. Consequently, he asks listeners for advice on starting a big game project, and he plans to record his progress, maybe as a time lapse. Then it is straight into the featured story. Anthropic’s Model Hardware Standard: A Driver for the Physical World The featured story comes from Anthropic, which opened a research preview of the Model Hardware Standard, or MHS. Cochrane frames it as the other side of the question NVIDIA’s world models raised two weeks ago: when do AI agents start touching actual machines? A typical lab runs a microscope, a liquid handler, a robotic arm, and a plate reader, each from a different vendor with its own control software. One Janelia researcher in the post launches seven programs in three languages just to start an experiment. Anthropic says wiring a setup like that takes weeks or months of specialist work. MHS is a driver, the same kind of translation layer a printer uses, except every device gets described with a tiny set of commands like read and write. Devices announce themselves on the network. A plain-English reference file then records what each machine measures, what can be adjusted, and which safety limits get enforced no matter what the agent asks. Agents then reach the hardware through the Model Context Protocol, the command line, or plain code. Cochrane sees the same move the industry keeps making, from coding harnesses to RSS and JSON: agree on a standard and let everyone build against it. In fact, he calls MHS the hardware version of MCP. The partner results carry the segment. QuEra builds quantum computers from individual atoms held by lasers that must hold their frequency to about one part in a trillion. A four-person team spent months on a relock script that worked 58 percent of the time. However, four copies of Claude iterating overnight through MHS produced a decision-tree script that recovers the laser in about six seconds, and it passed 99.3 percent of 700 blind trials. Carnegie Mellon wrote MHS drivers for four instruments across three incompatible computers in about eight hours, then ran dose-response experiments three times faster and blocked all six deliberately induced faults. Genentech, meanwhile, showed the limits. Claude used the same pump speed for water, a foamy protein solution, and a human had to explain that the bubbles were a physics problem. That gap in physical intuition is what sticks with Cochrane. He doubts it will change soon, and he suspects the fix will arrive as sub-agents or sub-models that judge a request against an expected outcome. He also connects MHS to a video of racing robots that never learned to stop at the finish line. What happens, he wonders, once they can read a distance sensor through a shared standard? Still, he calls the announcement a fantastic read and points listeners to the full article. Sponsor: GoDaddy Economy hosting $6.99/month, WordPress hosting $12.99/month, domains $11.99.

GPT-5.6 Does the Same Work for a Fraction of the Cost OpenAI’s builder’s guide to GPT-5.6 leads the headlines. Cochrane recaps the three tiers from episode 1870, Sol, Terra, and Luna, plus the separate dial for reasoning effort. On BrowseComp, a benchmark for digging up obscure facts on the web, the old GPT-5.5 flagship scored about 84 percent on a run that cost 33 dollars three months ago. Luna now matches that score for a dollar thirty-three, and OpenAI has since cut Luna’s price another 80 percent. Browser Use reports Luna finishing 78 percent of its hardest browser tasks for about 14 dollars, against 80 percent for roughly 235 dollars from the best available model. The guide’s other big addition is a multi-agent beta flag. It lets the model handling a request spawn parallel helper agents that report back to a root agent inside a single API call. However, Cochrane is unimpressed by the timing. He has been running that pattern in Claude Code for months, so he sees OpenAI copying a workflow other companies already ship rather than inventing its own. Along the way, he plugs Claude Code’s remote-control sessions, which let him send prompts from his phone to a terminal session at home. Google Lets Gemini Read the Books You Actually Bought Google launched Expert Intelligence, a name Cochrane calls quite the reach. The feature lets you drop a book you bought on Google Play Books into Gemini Notebook, formerly NotebookLM, and ask questions answered only from that book, with citations. Cochrane sees real power here for students, since he once used NotebookLM to organize scattered course PDFs. Additionally, publishers get a cut, which he calls a far better deal than the wholesale scraping of books that trained earlier models. Nevertheless, he asks who loses out, because a paid publisher does not automatically mean a paid author. He floats the same idea for artists, even a penny per use, then admits that may be too idealistic. Apple’s M5 Ultra Mac Studio Is Built to Run Big Models at Home Back in episode 1861, when Apple killed the Mac Pro, an M5 Ultra Mac Studio was expected later this year. Now it is here. The M5 Ultra brings up to a 36-core CPU, an 80-core GPU, and 512GB of unified memory moving 1.2 terabytes per second. Apple claims up to 4.3 times the AI performance of the M3 Ultra. Thunderbolt 5 can also cluster four machines into one memory pool for up to three times faster inference. The M5 Max model starts at $2,499 and the Ultra at $5,499, with shipping on September 22 and the 512GB configuration arriving in late October. Cochrane finds the clustering pitch ridiculous at that price, but he invites anyone who spends the money to report back. Apple Opens a Manufacturing School in Houston Apple also opened a 20,000-square-foot Advanced Manufacturing Center in Houston. It offers free classes for small and midsize manufacturers, from circuit board design to hands-on time on a scaled-down production line, with college students joining later. Cochrane calls it a solid step in the bring-manufacturing-home movement. The bigger story is the campus itself, which builds Apple’s AI servers and will add the first US-assembled Mac mini line later this year. That ties back to the Mac mini shortage that followed the OpenClaw rush, when Tim Cook warned of months-long waits. Cult of Mac was still reporting four-month waits in late July. However, Cook blamed chip supply rather than assembly, so Cochrane is not counting on relief just yet. Amazon EC2 Turns Twenty Amazon EC2 turned twenty this week, which Cochrane admits makes him feel old. The 2006 beta offered one server size in one region for ten cents an hour. Each came with a 1.7 gigahertz Xeon and under two gigabytes of memory, and accounts were capped at twenty servers. Today AWS offers more than 1,200 instance types across 39 regions. Consequently, Cochrane credits the company with turning that tiny product into the backbone of cloud and AI computing. Intel Gamer Days: Two Free Games, With Fine Print Intel Gamer Days runs through September 13. Buy a qualifying Core Ultra Series 2 or 14th Gen desktop chip, a Core Ultra Series 3 laptop, or an Arc graphics card. In return you get Star Wars: Galactic Racer plus the Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis remake. GamesRadar values the pair at about 120 dollars. However, neither game is out yet, and codes must be redeemed by October 31 even though the Tomb Raider remake ships in February. Cochrane calls that awful, but he still tells qualifying buyers to claim the deal early. Note that 13th Gen chips do not qualify. Judge Orders Google to Stop Hiding Rival App Stores A jury found Google’s Android app monopoly illegal in late 2023, and Judge James Donato ordered rival stores into the Play Store in 2024. On August 13, Epic’s lawyer demonstrated that searching Play for “store for apps” returned Walmart instead of any app store. Donato called that “not acceptable” and ordered three fixes within a week. Searches must surface third-party stores, listings need a plain install button, and the “are you looking for” interstitial has to go. Cochrane welcomes the monopoly being chipped away, but he notes that a controlling entity still sits atop every app store. In his view, community hubs like app stores and social media need a public infrastructure layer. He suspects governments skip that investment because companies already run the services, while selling your data. Apple Wants 15 Percent of Purchases Outside Its Store The other half of the Epic saga is Apple’s proposed link-out commission. After the 2021 anti-steering injunction, Apple charged 27 percent on purchases made through external links. A judge held it in contempt last year, and the Ninth Circuit then allowed a fee limited to the cost of running the system. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers refused to wait for the Supreme Court, writing that “further delay is unwarranted.” Apple filed 15 percent for standard apps, 10 percent for subscription renewals and partner programs, and 5 percent for small businesses. It also conceded the rate would be “essentially zero” under the appeals court’s cost yardstick. Since Apple has charged nothing on link-outs since the contempt ruling, Cochrane sees this as a raise. He calls a cut on purchases made on a developer’s own website disturbing. He also recalls reading about the size of Uber’s payments to Apple, and he questions whether that kind of percentage is sustainable for companies without funding. Meta Says It Has Cut Off 750,000 Australian Kids Meta reported locking out more than 750,000 Facebook and Instagram accounts in Australia by the end of June under the country’s under-16 social media law. Over 500,000 of those were removed before the law even took effect. Detection relies mostly on AI scanning posts and bios for tells like birthday messages, plus user reports and blocks on re-registration. However, the post gives no count of mistaken removals or appeals, and the regulator’s early data shows under-16 usage falling only from about 86 to 81 percent. Meta wants a single age signal at the operating system or app store level, and Cochrane agrees completely. He connects it to the MHS idea from the top of the show: platforms need a standard flag to reference instead of guessing. The White House Deputizes Private Hackers Earlier this month the White House signed a National Security Presidential Memorandum that lets vetted private security firms run surveillance and disruption operations against overseas criminal groups. The Justice Department and Homeland Security hold the contracts and oversee the work. Firms need a proven track record, vetted staff, and a bond of at least $1 million, and must submit operating procedures within 60 days. Cochrane finds the measure aggressive in a good way and hopes it deters attacks on innocents. Still, he takes Kevin Beaumont’s warning seriously that the private security industry profits from ransomware existing. He compares it to the old Head and Shoulders myth: why solve the problem that drives your revenue? A Weather Satellite Watched the Eclipse Shadow Cross Europe Cochrane skips the readout on this one and simply sends listeners to ESA’s site. The MTG-I1 weather satellite captured the Moon’s shadow sweeping across Europe during the August 12 eclipse. Watching a shadow cross an entire continent, he says, was a first for him. Additionally, it leaves him excited about the research happening beyond the planet. Rivers, Deltas, and the Number 0.6 Quanta Magazine explains Hack’s law, which John Hack discovered in 1957 while measuring streams in Virginia and Maryland. A stream’s length tracks its drainage area raised to the power of 0.6, regardless of the rock underneath, and satellite data later confirmed it worldwide. Computer models in the 1990s showed why. Channels that capture extra runoff cut deeper and steal from their neighbors until the network settles into the arrangement that wastes the least energy. Now a University of Texas Rio Grande Valley team has found the same 0.6 exponent in river deltas, which spread water out rather than gathering it. Nobody knows why yet, and Cochrane calls it a really cool read. Sugar Helped Grow the Human Brain, Too A new paper in Science, co-authored by Jennie Brand-Miller at the University of Sydney, adds a third ingredient to the story of early human brain growth. Alongside meat and cooking, natural sugars from ripe fruit and honey may have fueled it too. The brain is about two percent of body weight but burns twenty percent of resting energy. It runs on glucose, which meat and marrow barely supply and raw starch cannot release without fire. The team modeled ancestral diets from a chimp-like baseline through Homo erectus and concluded that the earliest hominins may have drawn over 65 percent of their energy from natural sugars. Cochrane stresses that it is a model, not fossils, and notes that paleoanthropologist Marina Lozano thinks the authors place widespread cooking too early. Still, he loves this kind of deep research. Retracing the steps to our own intelligence, he suggests, could hint at what it takes for intelligent life to develop at all. A Brain Rhythm That Tells Doctors Where to Aim Finally, Science Daily covered a University of Cologne study on deep brain stimulation. That is the implanted-electrode treatment that eases Parkinson’s tremors for some patients but not others. Andreas Horn’s team recorded from 50 patients using both the implanted electrodes and an external magnetic scanner. They identified a circuit between the electrode’s target and the frontal cortex that oscillates at 20 to 35 cycles per second. Stronger coupling there predicted bigger improvement after surgery, though the study, published in Brain, shows correlation rather than cause. First author Bahne Bahners hopes the finding helps tune DBS more precisely, especially for patients who have not responded well. Cochrane half-jokingly asks whether MHS might one day drive those electrodes, and he calls brain disorders the hardest thing in the body to treat.

Living with Parkinson's can feel like standing in a room when the lights suddenly go out, while the world around you still expects you to move as if nothing has changed. That's what this episode is really about, how hard it can be to explain what's going on inside when so little of it shows on the outside, and how tiring it is to keep trying. Daniel is joined by Frank, who has lived with Parkinson's for nearly twenty years, and Frank's friend Chris, who doesn't have Parkinson's but has spent years learning what it's like to walk alongside someone who does.This episode may mean a lot to anyone struggling to explain a disease that keeps changing, one that's often just as hard for others to understand as it is to describe. Chris talks about how he slowly got to know Frank, not by asking quick questions or assuming he understood, but by being patient, and how that opened his eyes to just how much Frank has to adapt to and manage every day. Daniel also shares an update on his own path toward DBS surgery, and would love to hear from listeners on whether that deserves its own episode, with his contact information shared at the end.Vist us at: PandMe.netAdd your experience and suggestions to the conversation in this Parkinson's podcast.

Banks spend millions on carbon footprint. Banks have an engagement problem. Something is not working! This week I speak with Mathias Boissonot, Founder and CEO of Handprint and he makes a commercial case for a different model: instead of tracking what your customers do wrong, quantify what they're building right.Handprint powers ocean regeneration programs for banks like DBS, including coral reef restoration and mangrove planting that customers own, watch grow, and choose to fund with their spend. The result isn't just goodwill. It's an 875% increase in customer engagement compared to legacy carbon programs, and $23 million a year in verified ecosystem value returned to society.We get into why Mathias measures success by a metric most founders have never heard of: the "phoenix" over the unicorn, and the sales and founder lessons he's learned building the company from scratch.What you'll learnWhy carbon offsetting and "your carbon footprint" features fail to change customer behavior, and what the psychology actually isThe handprint model: quantifying positive impact instead of negative impact, and why that flips the entire customer relationshipHow banks turn nature engagement into a growth engine: referral programs with co-owned impact, nature cashback instead of standard cashbackWhy 62% of customers would switch banks over purpose misalignment, and 52% already haveThe phoenix metric: measuring company success in ecosystem value generated, not just valuationMathias's biggest founder mistakes, and the best sales advice he's ever received: "implicate the pain"Timestamps00:00 — Cold open: has carbon offsetting failed?04:40 — What Handprint actually does06:55 — Phoenix vs. unicorn: a new metric for success09:00 — $23 million in ecosystem value, every year18:30 — Why donation and carbon-guilt features don't work24:40 — Kill the cashback war: nature cashback instead27:30 — From cost center to growth engine: the 875% number32:30 — Building a company from Bali35:30 — Every mistake we could have made, we've made41:35 — Implicate the pain: the best sales advice he's received44:00 — Resilience, mindset, and having fun in the painConnect with Mathias:

Maggie Bolger and Ann Marie Christian explore the changing safeguarding landscape in early childhood, including KCSIE, the EYFS, safer recruitment, reporting concerns and the September changes.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 8-20-2026: An emailer asks about amlexanox for mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). Dr. Dawn first walks through MCAS diagnostic criteria—requiring symptoms across at least two of four categories (skin, low blood pressure, abdominal, respiratory), with serum tryptase testing performed both during and after a flare. She grades amlexanox as a C: originally FDA-approved only as a topical paste for canker sores, later approved in Japan as an asthma treatment, but never validated for MCAS and pushed largely by a single compounding pharmacy and its influencer clones. She recommends conventional agents first—antihistamines, montelukast, cromolyn, quercetin, aspirin for flushing, and Xolair anti-IgE antibodies for severe cases—plus microcrystalline cellulose as the safest capsule filler if compounding of amellanox is pursued. Most ovarian cancers—including nearly all fatal cases—actually originate in the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes rather than the ovaries themselves. Opportunistic salpingectomy tacks a five-minute fallopian tube removal onto any abdominal surgery (tubal ligation, hernia repair, gallbladder, appendectomy), potentially reducing lifetime ovarian cancer risk by 65% -80% based on epidemiological data from Swedish, Canadian, and Danish registry studies. Dr. Dawn recommends particular consideration for non-childbearing women with BRCA1/2 or family history of breast or ovarian cancer. Deep brain stimulator devices manufactured after 2020 (about 40,000 U.S. patients) contain adaptive-DBS capability that can be activated via firmware upgrade without additional surgery. Rather than delivering constant stimulation like older devices, adaptive DBS reads beta oscillations (13-30 Hz motor-control brainwaves) in the basal ganglia and modulates output in real time—reducing stimulation as L-DOPA peaks from drugs and increasing it as medication wears off, smoothing the swings between agitation and freezing. Sleep improvement has emerged as a notable secondary benefit, potentially slowing disease progression. The technology is also being investigated for dystonia, essential tremor, OCD, and Tourette's syndrome. Chinese company StarMed is developing brain-computer interfaces closely resembling Neuralink designs, benefiting from aggressive government funding, large patient populations, and reduced tort liability. One trial uses an eight-probe device placed atop the dura mater (avoiding brain penetration) connected to a pneumatic glove that has restored eating and drinking function in about twenty paralyzed patients over twenty months. A more invasive Shanghai trial implanted 256 probes on the neural cortex of a woman with epilepsy who could operate social media and control a wheelchair within two weeks; a related U.S. system using 65 hair-thin sensors enabled speech with just ten-millisecond delay. An emailer describes recurring two-week viral illnesses (sore throat, swollen glands, congestion, cough, body aches) recurring every 4-6 weeks. Dr. Dawn frames the question as either impaired immunity or changed exposure. She recommends starting with a CBC to rule out blood dyscrasias like leukemia, checking urine mycotoxins for mold exposure, then examining behavioral changes—new job, handling cash before eating, and the well-documented protective effect of masking in public that dramatically reduced cold rates during COVID. Dr. Dawn covers three health policy items. The good: new USDA dietary guidelines flip the food pyramid, putting protein, dairy, healthy fats, vegetables, and fruits at the top, with whole grains reduced to a small band, and it's recommendation 1.2 g/kg protein daily. The bad: an executive order attempting to reduce childhood vaccines from 18 to 11 and separate MMR into individual components—impossible since no U.S. manufacturer makes the individual antigens, and misguided since infant hepatitis B vaccination prevents mother-to-child liver cancer transmission. The ugly: a 26-year-old heart transplant recipient whose insurer initially dropped coverage of her generic anti-rejection drug, then "ghost approved" it at $1,000 for 90 days versus the previous $180. Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Pharmacy now supplies her the same medication for $300 (cost plus 15% profit plus 5% handling), highlighting the massive markups embedded in the standard pharmacy chain. For a time before that, the mother of the heart donor stepped up and paid for the recipients anti-rejection drugs to keep her son's heart beating.

Michelle Martin speaks with Cheng Chye Hsern, Head of Investment at Providend, about what is driving the AI sell-off and the growing use of off-balance-sheet financing to fund the enormous data centres and infrastructure behind the AI boom. What risks should investors be watching? They also examine why long-term bond yields are rising in the US and Singapore, what higher yields mean for bond investors. Plus, with DBS, OCBC and UOB all reporting higher second-quarter profits, what do their latest results reveal - and after the strong run in Singapore bank shares, is there still value for investors?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My guest today is Vijays Kadiala, ,Executive Director  for Architecture, Engineering, AI, Data, Cloud in DBS Tech India talks about his accidental start to an AI Era tech leader who's defining mantra has been Every role has an expiration date! Conversation highlights00:32 — 25 years of a career that wasn't plannedVijay introduces his journey across startups, TCS, Infosys, Capgemini, JPMorgan Chase and DBS, with data and data-intensive applications as a recurring theme.02:35 — From a two-bedroom startup to the corporate worldVijay recalls his unexpected entry into entrepreneurship after graduating with no job offers and describes the freedom, ownership and lack of bureaucracy that made those early startup years memorable.05:39 — Why he left the startupA fascinating look at how social and family expectations influenced career decisions in the early 2000s—and why working for a recognised IT company mattered so much at that time.07:57 — Has entrepreneurship become a label?Vijay reflects on today's startup culture and the difference between genuinely solving a customer problem and simply wanting to be called an entrepreneur.10:02 — Are GCCs really global capability centres?Vijay offers his perspective on GCCs, suggesting that organisations should think beyond the label and focus on what makes an India-based technology centre genuinely different and valuable.11:09 — The “expiration date” of a career roleOne of the central ideas of the conversation: every role has a lifespan. Vijay's approach has been to find a problem, solve it in roughly 18 months, create customer value and move on to the next challenge.14:19 — Make yourself redundantGayatri shares her own three-year theory, while Vijay explains why he believes professionals should constantly create enough value for their current role to become unnecessary.15:19 — Choosing the uncomfortable pathFrom production support to PL/SQL to data architecture, Vijay describes several career decisions where he deliberately entered unfamiliar territory.18:10 — Moving to the US as a data architectA new role, a new country, a new culture and a new way of communicating. Vijay talks about the challenges of his first international assignment.19:29 — Taking the biggest career betIn 2018, Vijay chose to move from people management into an executive individual-contributor role at JPMorgan Chase—putting his promotion trajectory at risk in the process.22:26 — You have to make the decisionA powerful discussion about career choices, risk and the importance of betting on yourself. Even a wrong decision, Vijay argues, can cost only a year or two in a career that may span 35–50 years.23:11 — Building a second identity through writingVijay explains how his leadership talks evolved into his first book and why his leadership philosophy begins outside the workplace.24:58 — What driving can teach us about leadershipHis unusual leadership framework connects everyday driving behaviour with leadership behaviours—how we respond to rules, pressure, uncertainty, other people and unexpected situations.26:57 — Writing with the help of LLMsVijay and his son began putting their ideas on paper and then using LLMs to help develop them. His philosophy is simple: the ideas and experiences remain human; AI becomes a tool to help express them.28:01 — Giving back to the next generationVijay has spent nearly 14 years visiting universities and colleges, sharing practical experiences with students and helping them accelerate their journeys.40:01 — Learn across culturesVijay encourages professionals to work with organisations from different parts of the world—not only to gain technical experience, but to understand how culture influences leadership, communication and behaviour.45:01 — What will technology careers look like in 2031?Vijay predicts that AI agents will transform traditional roles such as business analysis, testing and software development. Instead of specialised roles operating in isolation, he sees a future of professionals combining technical depth, domain knowledge and AI capabilities.50:00 — From I-shaped to M-shaped professionalsVijay describes the evolution from deep expertise in one area to professionals who have multiple areas of technical depth combined with domain understanding.52:00— Four skills for the AI eraCuriosity — the ability to keep asking “Why?”Domain experience — understanding the business and context behind the technology.Orchestration — knowing what humans should do, what agents can do and where humans and agents should work together.Judgment — making decisions when AI produces ambiguous, conflicting or potentially incorrect answers.55:00— Why curiosity mattersVijay reflects on how traditional cultures can sometimes discourage questioning and argues that curiosity will become one of the most important capabilities in an AI-driven world.56:00 — Five movies that imagined the AI futureVijay recommends Terminator 2, I, Robot, Surrogates, Passengers and WALL-E as interesting ways to think about different dimensions of an AI-driven future.Key TakeawaysYour first career decision doesn't have to define your career.Sometimes the best opportunities begin with circumstances you didn't choose.Get comfortable being uncomfortable. Vijay's biggest career moves often came when he knew very little about the new role.Don't wait for your role to become obsolete. Create value, make the role redundant and move forward.Take calculated bets on yourself—even when the safer option is available.Build your career across people, technology and cultures.Leadership is not something that exists only inside a workplace; it is reflected in our everyday behaviour.AI will not simply replace technology roles—it will reshape them.The future professional will combine technical depth with domain knowledge and the ability to orchestrate AI.Curiosity and judgment remain deeply human capabilities.Vijaya Kadiyala is a technology leader with over two decades of experience spanning data, AI, cloud and enterprise transformation. Having worked with organisations such as TCS, Infosys, JPMorgan Chase and DBS Bank, he has evolved from a deep technical specialist into a leader shaping technology at GCC scale.At DBS Tech India, Vijaya works at the intersection of Data, AI, Cloud and enterprise transformation, helping build technology capabilities for a highly regulated financial-services environment. His journey also includes patents, innovation awards, mentoring and building high-performing technology teams.What makes Vijaya's story particularly interesting is the evolution of his career—from being a hands-on technologist and database expert to becoming a technology and transformation leader navigating the rapidly changing world of AI.Vijay can be reached at https://www.linkedin.com/in/vijaya-kadiyala/

After living with Parkinson's for 10 years, I still struggle to recognize when I'm experiencing OFF time. And dyskinesia? I never quite know when it will happen or why. I'm sure I'm not alone. So, as part of our "Dr. Ospina Explains" series, I asked Dr. Ospina to break down the terms we hear so often in Parkinson's: ON, OFF, dyskinesia, dystonia, and more. She walks us through the medication roller coaster—what it looks like, why it happens, and how it can change over the years. She also explains how to tell the difference between OFF symptoms, dyskinesia, and dystonia, and why it's important to pay attention to more than just movement. Non-motor symptoms can also fluctuate with medication and may even signal an approaching OFF period before motor symptoms appear. This is an episode you may want to bookmark and come back to. Understanding these differences can help you recognize what's happening in your own Parkinson's journey—and, ultimately, better communicate with your care team about how symptoms are affecting your quality of life.

Firstly, we apologize for Cam's audio. We tried to fix it many times, but the gremlins got the better of us. Cam and The Beast dig into the first week of the Miami Hurricanes' first week of fall camp. Of course, the first topic has to be the contract extension that Mario Cristobal signed. More Years. More Money. Donation back to the school. This is all good! Then it's some position talk, as The Beast tells you he is not a fan of the minutiae of camp, but secretly pays attention to all of it. We start with the DBs. They have a chance to be elite. The depth is there. And could OJ Frederique turn into a shutdown corner? The O-line has a huge upside. Samson Okunlola has been impressing and has been playing left tackle. Could Jackson Cantwell actually start at guard? We don't think so, but one never knows. Darian Mensah is playing like QB 1 and is now fully programmed to give us QB Speak. We like it. In Segment 2, The Beast gets radical. Brian lays out the path forward for Miami to regain its independence as a college football program. Forget the SEC. Forget the Big 10. We don't need your stinking Badgers. Someone get on the horn to Netflix or Amazon or Apple. Finally, Michael Irvin is helping Mamma Fletcher get to every game. She still won't fly, so why not arrive in style in her own customized RV? Oh, and is Fetching Fletchers the best name for a reality video series? Please go check out the great work of Cam and his staff at State Of The U. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In our last episode, we featured a wearable device that uses gentle vibrations to help people manage Parkinson's symptoms and reduce anxiety. If you haven't listened yet, I encourage you to do so. It's a fascinating conversation about how something as simple as a vibrating wristband—BeechBand—may influence the brain in ways that help ease anxiety and tremors. Best of all, it's easy to use and fully refundable if it doesn't work for you in 100 days.. This episode also explores wearable technology, but with a very different purpose—one that could transform how we manage Parkinson's and partner with our healthcare teams. StrivePD, developed by Rune Labs, is an app that pairs with your Apple Watch to track movement, heart rate, sleep, and other important health data. It then provides easy-to-understand reports that highlight trends over time, giving you a clearer picture of how your Parkinson's is changing between doctor visits. Imagine arriving at your next appointment with objective, actionable information instead of relying on memory alone. That kind of insight can lead to more informed conversations and better care decisions. And this is only the beginning of what's possible with StrivePD. I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Rune Labs CEO Amy Gordon Franzen and learning about the future of digital health for Parkinson's.

The Big Red Junkies build Nebraska's all-time defensive dream team, drafting the best D-tackles, ends, linebackers and DBs since the Devaney era. It's the defensive companion to our offense draft and things get spicy fast. We start with the easiest call in program history, Ndamukong Suh, and argue whether he actually deserved that Heisman before diving into a deep-cut case for Jim Scow at the other tackle spot. From there it's Grant Wistrom and Broderick Thomas up front, then a real debate on whether Trev Alberts or Jarrett Ruud deserves the linebacker crown next to Lavonte David. In the secondary we crown Mike Minter but give real burn to Mike Brown, Ralph Brown, Prince Amukamara and Cam Taylor-Britt. We also touch on whether Andrew Marshall or Williams Winery could ever crash a list like this down the road. Drop your own picks in the comments, and yeah, tell Jed to shut up while you're at it. 00:00 Intro and AI Screwup Recap 03:40 Ndamukong Suh's GOAT Case 13:10 Ends and Linebackers: Wistrom to Ruud 18:43 Defensive Backs: Minter vs Mike Brown If you enjoyed this episode, please Like and Subscribe! #gbr #huskers #nebraska #cfb #b1g Learn more about your ad choices.

Ben Goessling, Andrew Krammer and Emily Leiker bring you the first training camp dispatch from the team's Eagan headquarters, where DBs coach Gerald Alexander is suspended for three weeks following a DUI arrest, right tackle Brian O'Neill has a new contract and, oh yeah, there's a QB competition beginning in earnest.

Heather Butchen is a care partner for her husband Jeff, who was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's disease at 51 years old. Over the past decade-plus, Heather has navigated the evolving challenges that come with a progressive disease — and a few years ago, she and Jeff reached a major milestone when he underwent Deep Brain Stimulation surgery, known as DBS. In this episode, Heather shares practical wisdom from her caregiving journey. We talk about how she keeps a dedicated medical journal to stay organized across doctor's appointments and support group meetings, and how those notes proved invaluable when they were ready to explore DBS surgery. Heather also shares how she and Jeff co-founded a Parkinson's support group back in 2014 that is still going strong today. She shares her "do it now" philosophy when it comes to travel, including smart tips for navigating airports with a hidden disability using the Sunflower Lanyard program. She talks candidly about the creativity it takes to keep a care partner engaged in physical activity — and why boxing has been an ideal activity for Jeff. We also get into the tender aspects of their partnership — how they've simplified family gatherings to reduce stress, how they use conversation cards at dinner to reconnect and go deeper after 31 years of marriage, and what it has looked like to rediscover each other as their kids have grown and moved out. And we absolutely talk about Heather's own self-care routines, which include walking catch-ups with friends, Pilates, Mahjong, and her favorite snacks.

Today we're talking about BeechBand, a wearable wellness device designed to support people living with neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease. If you've spent any time in the Parkinson's community lately, you've probably heard the name. Carl Beech, the co-inventor and founder, seems to be everywhere sharing the story behind this innovative wearable. Friends of mine who have purchased a BeechBand rave about the results. Carl regularly appears in my Instagram feed, and when I attended the World Parkinson's Congress (WPC) in May, his booth was consistently packed with people eager to learn more. It's clear that the word is getting out, and BeechBand appears to be gaining real momentum. I have to admit—I became a believer myself. In this episode, Carl shares the origins of BeechBand, the personal story that inspired its creation, and how the device is designed to help people with Parkinson's. Listen in to discover what makes this wearable so intriguing. You just might become a believer, too. https://www.beechband.com/pages/about Thank you to our sponsor – Boston Scientific, the maker of Vercise Genus, a Deep Brain Stimulation or DBS system.

For some reason, I've always been fascinated by grief and the grieving process. It seems to be everywhere—in the TV shows I watch, the podcasts I listen to, and the conversations I have with friends. Every one of us experiences grief, yet no two people grieve in exactly the same way. I've become curious about why that is and what we can learn from one another's experiences. That curiosity led me to attend a Support Group Leader session on grief at the World Parkinson Congress last May. One of the presenters was my friend, Karen McIntyre, who introduced an idea that really resonated with me: grief doesn't begin only when someone we love dies. For people living with Parkinson's, grief can occur every time they lose an ability that was once part of everyday life—driving a car, walking long distances, writing by hand, or even enjoying the smell of a favorite meal. What does that kind of grief look like? Is grieving the loss of an ability different from grieving the death of a loved one? Or do they share more similarities than we realize? To explore those questions, I invited Karen, who writes thoughtfully about grief on her Substack, to join me in interviewing an expert in grief and bereavement. Together, we discuss how grief affects all of us, why it takes so many different forms, and how people with Parkinson's and their care partners can better understand and navigate the losses that accompany the disease. This episode is truly for everyone because, at some point in our lives, we all grieve someone or something that has mattered deeply to us. https://clairebidwellsmith.com/ https://www.elegy.co/ https://substack.com/@inmyshoesmemoir Thank you to our sponsor – Boston Scientific, the maker of Vercise Genus, a Deep Brain Stimulation or DBS system.

Things Discussed: World Cup: When our nation needed rascally anti-slavery hicks with guns, Michigan provided. When our nation needed factories that could turn out more war machines than the rest of the world combined, Michigan provided. When our nation needs unfathomably pedantic sports lawyers, Mo Thiam returning: HUGE news for Michigan, because they needed a frontcourt. Sam: strategy is a retention domino effect: keeping Boynton helped the keep McKenney, which may have influenced Akeem Miskdeen to stick around, which means holding onto Cadeau, which was a big question for Thiam, and if everyone's here you have a shot to keep Estrella. Sam: needs to be more strategy here. Got to back Mike Boynton, let him sign his staff to long-term contracts so he can attract good people. Craig: Misrepresenting how Dusty left. Not okay with the way his players found out, don't think he left for the same reasons as Beilein, despite the interview, because the context of that interview was the NCAA issues were an aside and the main reason was the Mavs were willing to pour resources into him and it's the friggin' NBA. Seth: don't make the 2024 football mistake again by prioritizing keeping the roster together, because most of them—Cadeau, McKenney, Thiam, Estrella, McCoy, Reed—are only around for one more year. You can give Boynton a chance, but obviously Warde is working the back-channels. Sam: Need to support Boynton without boxing yourself in. Craig: Can't hamstring your current guy with less than full support. Ideally Boynton does a fantastic job, is lining up guys for beyond, wins again, and is Tom Izzo but with championships for 30 years. Craig: Schertz is this year's model. He isn't just the hot name; in Ken Pomeroy's article for VALIANT he showed which coaches were dominating in 2PAD: the top-six teams went Schertz, Schertz, Nate Oats, Dusty May, Dusty May, Dusty May. Dusty got Boynton because he defended the rim. Cason to return? Sam thinks so. Break: Craig thinks Dusty should have exited more gracefully. Seth says if you're getting a divorce because you fell in love with someone else, *how* you tell your wife isn't the reason she's mad at you. Football recruiting: Big deal that they can go into a Buckeye family in Cincinnati and get a cornerback that Ohio State wanted. Scouting report: Monsanna Torbert is FAST. Saban always talked about DBs with basketball skills because they can play the ball. Nickname is "Sookie" (sp? Suki? Sukki? Siucci?). Need to watch the film still—love when we get a kid from Cincy because the competition level is strong and the kids are so well-coached. Height: only 5'11 man in America who's really 5'11. Sam was thinking he'd be Smith Snowden's size. If Ohio State wants you that bad—was trying to get him to not even take a Michigan visit—you're probably something. Comp: DJ Turner II. Good to see how their GM is working with the coaches regarding what level they can recruit. Was an issue last year when they had Coach BJ recruiting linebackers that he didn't have the money for.

The Dumbbells welcome Michael Cassady of Netflix's Love to The Weight Room. He tells the DBs about how he was an indoor kid growing up and they make fun of him for studying to get a trumpet degree in college. Cassady describes all the different stages of exercise and nutrition he's hone through over the years with the most recent being intermittent fasting. Finally the group helps a listener who can't seem to lose any body fat even though he's seemingly doing everything right.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
