As the Aug. 1 trade deadline approaches, Donald Trump's administration is threatening to hike tariffs on non-CUSMA-compliant Canadian goods from 25 to 35 per cent, while leaving existing levies on potash and energy unchanged. Gitane De Silva, former Canada Energy Regulator CEO and Alberta's ex-representative in Washington, doubts a deal will be struck by Friday. She says Canada is smart to keep negotiations focused and quiet, while leveraging its deep economic integration with the U.S.De Silva urges Ottawa to avoid broad retaliation but suggests targeted responses and shifts in consumer behaviour are already shaping U.S. decisions. She questions whether Trump even wants a short-term deal, given his push to renegotiate CUSMA. Canada, she argues, should aim for certainty in key sectors like autos and energy while being realistic about what it may need to concede. Despite the turbulence, she's cautiously optimistic Canadians are adapting to a new era of trade uncertainty.At home, De Silva weighs in on Alberta's push for a new pipeline to Prince Rupert, B.C., calling it feasible but dependent on meaningful backing from both levels of government. She says regulatory clarity under Bill C-5 is lacking, and Indigenous consultation — especially in B.C.'s unceded territories — remains a key challenge. She suggests Ottawa could seek legal clarity via a Supreme Court reference. Despite the obstacles, she sees this as a moment for Canada to assert its value as a reliable supplier of food, fuel and stability in a shifting global landscape.Host: Rob Brown | Producer & editor: Falice Chin | Guest: Gitane De Silva

Udhara de Silva, who leads loyalty marketing for Singapore Airlines in Australia, walks through the launch and rapid growth of Kris+, the digital rewards app that enables members to earn and spend miles in restaurants and retail stores – a first for any airline rewards app outside of Singapore. The discussion tracks why Australia was chosen as the testbed, the challenges of localizing a QR-based payment app in a card-centric market, and the dual work of building merchant trust and user habits from zero. Udhara details what drives engagement, how to “double dip” on points, and why genuine merchant partnerships matter more than technical bells and whistles. Listeners get insight into evolving loyalty marketing tactics, campaign strategies, and the real mechanics of building an airline's everyday brand.Questions Udhara answered in this episode:Why did Singapore Airlines expand Kris+ to Australia first?What unique challenges come with launching a QR code–based payment app in Australia?How do you pitch and onboard merchants before an app is live?What technical features make Kris+ easy for partners to adopt?What's different about marketing an airline app versus a retail loyalty app?What tactics actually drive repeated use and engagement?What does merchant “densification” mean, and why is it critical?How does Kris+ expand the loyalty audience beyond high-income credit card holders?What's next for Kris+ in Australia and globally?Timestamp:2:00 – Scope of KrisFlyer: Australia's place in the global member base3:00 – The origins and purpose of Kris+5:30 – How Kris+ works: earning, spending, “double-dipping” on miles6:00 – Selecting Australia: market sophistication and loyalty culture9:00 – Pitching and onboarding merchants, early business development12:10 – Overcoming the QR code adoption barrier15:10 – Building merchant trust with low technical overhead16:00 – Tactics for engagement: push notifications, highlight tiles, gamified challenges17:00 - Kris+ challenges18:00 – Advice for marketers launching in new regions20:00 – The future: merchant densification, market expansion, next stepsQuotes:(3:30) “It's a custom-built app. You scan a QR code, enter the amount, and you get to decide whether you want to either spend your miles that you might have earned from a flight, or you can pay with Apple or Google Pay, and then you earn miles on that transaction. You're double dipping.” (13:00) “There are certain high-volume merchants where they have started educating and frontliners have started educating partners. But it's a combination of factors, I think. We're very mindful of the fact that QR codes aren't mainstream yet, and so it's a bit of a slow burn.”  (14:10) “Tailoring the message to the Australian voice, the Australian landscape, the whole lack of familiarity with QR codes — that was something we had to really learn from the ground up.” Mentioned in this episode:Udhara de Silva's LinkedInKris+ (Singapore Airlines digital rewards app)KrisFlyer frequent flyer programContact for merchant/partner queries: krisplusau@singaporeair.com.sgBrunetti (Melbourne café, case study for merchant adoption)

Chiara De Silva"Congiuntivi sbagliati"Marsilio Editoriwww.marsilioeditori.itJessica insegna italiano alla scuola media, nella periferia campana. Adora i suoi studenti e vive con una gatta sorda color mozzarella e Joshua, il fidanzato gioielliere dal dna scomodo. Tutto sembra andare nel migliore dei modi: si amano, lei dialoga con la nonna morta attraverso un diario e corregge i congiuntivi di lui. Joshua è il figlio di un camorrista chiamato lo Sputatore, di cui però non ha seguito le orme. Vittima di un agguato, l'uomo lascia a Joshua un debito da ripagare, nel quale rimane coinvolta, suo malgrado e per amore, anche Jess. Dove trovare, allora, la soluzione per risolvere tutto se non nella musica che si insinua in ogni vicolo della città? Come restare uniti se non mescolando l'alta letteratura alle voci del popolo, scrivendo canzoni? Con il nome di Adamo e Eva, i due entrano così nell'arena dei cantanti neomelodici, esibendosi alle feste di battesimi, matrimoni e comunioni, accompagnati, come nella tradizione classica greca, da un coro di personaggi allo stesso tempo eterni e originali, un sottobosco comico e tenero di parrucchiere, estetiste, malavitosi, assassini, prostitute, cantanti falliti e nonni tabagisti. Una novella neomelodica sull'amore, sull'affetto, sulla famiglia, sulla grammatica e sulla lingua.Chiara De Silva è nata a Salerno nel 1999.

He's the CEO of Heathcote Advisory and a Senior Advisor at Oaklins DeSilva+Phillips.

Bipedalism - How Walking Made Us Human with Jeremy DeSilva“The history of our lineage is filled with multiple species coexisting—this moment, with only one upright walking ape on the planet, is exceptionally rare.”Why do humans walk on two legs when no other mammal does? And what did it cost us? From back pain to difficult childbirth, our bipedal evolution has its drawbacks—but it also shaped everything about who we are today.In this episode of Talking Apes, we sit down with Jeremy DeSilva, a leading paleoanthropologist whose research has transformed our understanding of early human locomotion. Jeremy takes us on a journey through millions of years of evolution, from the discovery of Lucy, the famous 3.2-million-year-old hominin, to fossilized footprints that reveal a world where multiple human-like species walked side by side.With infectious enthusiasm and a deep passion for science education, Jeremy unpacks the mysteries of how and why we took our very first steps—and why it matters today.Dive into Jeremy's book, First Steps: How Walking Upright Made Us HumanCheck out Jeremy's blogSend us a textSupport the showTalking Apes is an initiative of the nonprofit GLOBIO.

With the recent announcement of 25% tariffs on Canadian goods in the USA by President Trump, and the subsequent retaliatory tariffs on American goods in Canada by Prime Minster Trudeau, the craft beer industry is arguably the most aggressively affected. Thankfully they were paused for 30 days in early February, however, it felt right to do a deep dive into what they are, and what they mean for the industry. Shehan De Silva of Lost Craft, High Park and Local Spirits joined Cee (who is currently in Florida) to how the tariffs will affect key beer products including aluminium and hops, how it affects the supply chain, how it will affect the US and Canadian industries differently, they touched on the impact that Canada's high taxes have on the beer industry, trade barriers internally, large brewer monopolies, and how negative press continues to degrade an already suffering industry. Since this wasn't a planned pod, the beers weren't matched up but Shehan got into Lost Craft's Old School Pilsner and Espresso Stout, while Cee rocked Burial's Donut Skillet Stout and Other Half's BA Double Sunset - Cloud Cover Layo Terage stout.

Selon une étude britannique menée par le Dr Julian De Silva, chirurgien esthétique, les femmes commenceraient à ressembler à leur mère aux alentours de 33 ans. Cette ressemblance se manifeste tant sur le plan physique que comportemental. Pour parvenir à cette conclusion, le Dr De Silva a interrogé 2 000 hommes et femmes. Les résultats indiquent que 52 % des femmes ont commencé à adopter des comportements et des attitudes similaires à ceux de leur mère à partir de 33 ans. Ces comportements incluent le choix des programmes télévisés, les passe-temps et même les expressions linguistiques. Chez les hommes, un phénomène similaire a été observé, ceux-ci commençant à ressembler à leur père vers l'âge de 34 ans. Le Dr De Silva explique que ce changement survient souvent lors de la transition vers la parentalité, période où les individus cessent de se rebeller contre leurs parents et commencent à adopter des comportements similaires. Il souligne que devenir parent est un déclencheur majeur de cette transformation, bien que d'autres facteurs liés au mode de vie jouent également un rôle. En Grande-Bretagne, l'âge moyen du premier enfant pour les femmes est de 33 ans, ce qui coïncide avec l'âge identifié dans l'étude. Il est important de noter que cette tendance n'est pas universelle. Certaines femmes peuvent commencer à ressembler à leur mère plus tôt ou plus tard, en fonction de divers facteurs tels que l'âge de la maternité, les influences culturelles et les relations familiales. Par exemple, 26 % des femmes interrogées ont déclaré que ce changement s'était produit entre 35 et 40 ans, et 10 % ont affirmé que cela ne s'était pas produit avant l'âge de 40 ou 50 ans. Sur le plan psychologique, le processus d'identification commence dès le plus jeune âge, avec une tendance à s'identifier davantage au parent du même sexe. Cette identification peut être renforcée par des ressemblances physiques dues à la génétique. Cependant, la manière dont une personne se construit par rapport à sa mère peut varier : certaines peuvent se conformer au modèle maternel, d'autres s'y opposer, et d'autres encore créer leur propre modèle en intégrant et en modifiant les aspects hérités. En conclusion, bien que l'âge de 33 ans soit souvent cité comme le moment où les femmes commencent à ressembler à leur mère, ce phénomène est influencé par une combinaison de facteurs biologiques, psychologiques et sociaux. Il est essentiel de reconnaître que chaque individu est unique et que ces tendances générales peuvent ne pas s'appliquer à tout le monde. Hébergé par Acast.

Con Santi García Cremades y Alberto Aparici exploramos el fascinante origen del bipedismo, desde los primeros homínidos hasta Darwin. ¿Sabías que caminar a dos patas no es exclusivo de los humanos? Desde dinosaurios como el T. rex hasta el Eudibamus, un reptil que corría erguido hace 290 millones de años, muchos animales lo han hecho antes que nosotros. Analizamos cómo nuestros antepasados, como Sahelanthropus y Ardipithecus, empezaron a caminar hace más de 6 millones de años. Descubrimos por qué el bipedismo no surgió en la sabana, sino incluso en los árboles, y qué ventajas y retos trajo consigo: desde la eficiencia energética hasta partos más complicados. Reflexionamos sobre cómo el bipedismo nos permitió liberar las manos, usar herramientas y, quizás, dar el primer paso hacia lo que nos define como humanos. Una historia de evolución, ciencia y millones de años de pasos compartidos.

In the 335th episode of Expositors Collective, Mike sits down with Pastor Craig Babcock to discuss the unique challenges and opportunities of preaching through the book of Proverbs in an expositional manner. Both seasoned and novice preachers often find Proverbs challenging to preach (and Mike is no exception!) However, Craig, drawing from his PhD research, shares a transformative perspective on the book. Instead of viewing Proverbs as a collection of isolated maxims, Craig presents it as a progressive journey through a life—gaining knowledge and wisdom, being taught, and eventually becoming a teacher. This fresh understanding can be incredibly valuable for anyone looking to preach through Proverbs or simply wanting to deepen their grasp of this profound biblical book. In addition to this, the conversation delves into raising up the next generation of Bible teachers, offering solid insights and practical advice. And, for a bit of fun, Craig shares the unexpected benefits that come from wearing a suit and tie. Whether you're a preacher, a student of the Bible, or just curious about Proverbs, you're sure to enjoy this engaging and informative discussion. Craig Babcock attended Oregon State University and received a B.S. in Anthropology. He also holds an M.A. in Biblical Studies from Calvary Chapel University. Currently, Craig is a Doctoral Candidate at Liberty University in pursuit of a Ph.D. in Biblical Exposition. Pastor Craig has a heart for the local church and the Lord's people. Growing up in South Denver, Craig has spent the last 15 years of ministry as a pastor, church planter, and coach. Prior to being called into the ministry, Craig served in the Navy and in Law Enforcement. Craig's central focus of teaching is the Word of God and allowing the Lord to work in the lives of those who trust in Christ. Craig married his wonderful wife Christy in 2002, and they have three children. Craig enjoys running, being outdoors, and going on adventures.
