Sílvia: [0:17] Bon dia, Andreu! Com va, això? Andreu: [0:19] Bé, a veure, no sé com estarem aquesta setmana que es publica l'episodi, perquè és la setmana del Campus. Per tant, m'imagino que estarem... Sílvia: [0:28] Molt enfeinats. Andreu: [0:29] Molt enfeinats, parlant moltíssim… Sílvia: [0:33] Sí. Andreu: [0:33] I potser cansats, també, al cap del dia. Sílvia: [0:36] Una mica nerviosos. Andreu: [0:38] Si es publica dijous, que és el dia habitual, doncs avui és el dia del pòdcast en directe. Sílvia: [0:43] Sí, a la llibreria Ona. Andreu: [0:45] A la llibreria Ona. Quins nervis, encara no sabem, ara que estem gravant, encara no sabem de què parlarem aquell dia. Sílvia: [0:51] Ja es veurà, ja es veurà. Andreu: [0:52] Ja es veurà. I bé, doncs jo avui estic una mica cansat, la veritat. Estic com baix d'energia, no sé com tu… com estàs tu d'energia, avui. Sílvia: [1:00] Sí, també una mica baixa. Andreu: [1:04] Sí? Sílvia: [1:04] Sí. Andreu: [1:04] Doncs a veure com ho remuntem, això. Sílvia: [1:05] Ho remuntem, tranquil, ho remuntem. Andreu: [1:08] D'acord. A veure, doncs si vols passem directament al tema del dia. Sílvia: [1:13] Oi tant! Andreu: [1:14] Vinga! Tema del dia Andreu: [1:18] Doncs, Sílvia, en més de 200 episodis encara no hem parlat d'un tema que és molt curiós quan comences a aprendre llengües o quan compares llengües, que són els sons o les onomatopeies per a diferents sons. Les onomatopeies per als sons dels animals o sorolls que fan objectes… Sílvia: [1:39] Sí. És totalment diferent, no? Per exemple, quan ens fem mal, que fem "Au!" o… Andreu: [1:45] Sí. Per exemple. I he pensat que aquest tema, doncs… bé, a part que és un dels temes de la llista del Randy, també el tenia jo a la ment de fer algun dia. Perquè aquests dies he estat com molt centrat en la qüestió dels sons i el soroll, perquè torno a tenir obres aquí a l'edifici i al carrer, i… i sí, i la qüestió del soroll, doncs la tinc molt present. Aleshores, parlem d'això, de les onomatopeies. Per si algú no coneix aquesta paraula, "onomatopeia", com la podríem definir? Sílvia: [2:20] Doncs és el soroll o el que diem quan ens passa alguna cosa. Per exemple, si ens hem fet mal o si alguna cosa ens fa fàstic, doncs, quan veiem alguna cosa que ens fa fàstic, fem: "Ecs!". Doncs això seria una onomatopeia, no? O sigui, el que diem. Andreu: [2:38] Clar, de fet, això potser seria més una interjecció, perquè les interjeccions són paraules que potser no tenen un significat propi, però que ens ajuden a expressar emocions o sentiments, no?, com "ecs" o "oh", sorpresa. Sílvia: [2:56] Sí. Andreu: [2:57] "Ah", també. Ho tenim amb totes les vocals, jo crec. Sílvia: [3:00] Sí. Andreu: [3:02] I les onomatopeies són específicament per imitar un so, no? No tant per expressar una cosa, sinó per imitar un so o un soroll. Típic: els animals. No? Aleshores, et proposo el següent exercici: jo et dic un animal i tu em dius com en català imitem el soroll d'aquell animal. Sílvia: [3:24] D'acord. Andreu: [3:26] Per exemple, com fa el gos?

The Reality of CHS and the 1,100+ Patient Study Dr. Peterson highlights the scope of his landmark survey, which gathered data from 1,134 CHS sufferers. The study reveals that CHS is not an acute reaction to a single session, but rather a chronic, low-level dysregulation of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) that predominantly impacts heavy, long-term consumers. Frequency of Use: 96.5% of study participants consumed cannabis daily, and 45% consumed more than six times per day. The "Buoy" Metaphor: Dr. Peterson explains the ECS as a master regulatory buoy. While occasional cannabis use gently nudges the buoy, chronic high-dose THC overstimulation completely knocks it over, triggering the cyclical vomiting state. Vapes vs. Flower: The Onset Timeline One of the most significant findings of the paper is how the method of inhalation changes how quickly CHS develops. Vaporizing: Exclusive vapers reported symptoms starting within 1 to 2 years of beginning use. Smoking Flower: Flower smokers took significantly longer to develop CHS, with the most common timeline being 10 years or more. Debunking the Pesticide and Neem Oil Myths A popular theory in the cannabis community is that CHS is actually pesticide or neem oil poisoning. Dr. Peterson challenges this theory using clinical toxicology: The Sourcing Data: Sufferers in the study reported identical CHS symptoms regardless of whether they got their weed from licensed dispensaries, illicit sources, or their own pesticide-free home grows. Neem Oil Toxicity: Ingesting neem oil causes immediate nausea, alongside severe clinical signs like liver damage, seizures, and brain swelling—none of which are observed in CHS patients. Pesticide Toxidromes: Known pesticide exposures (like organophosphates) present with highly specific chemical "toxidromes" that look nothing like cyclical vomiting. Gender Differences in Symptom Severity The study revealed a stark contrast in how CHS manifests between sexes: Men: Frequently reported shorter hyperemetic episodes, often lasting only 1 day. Women: Suffered statistically longer and more severe episodes, with the most common duration being 3 to 5 days, and over 10% suffering for 10 or more days of continuous vomiting. Recognizing the Prodrome and Navigating Recovery The Prodrome Phase: This early warning phase involves morning nausea, abdominal pain, heartburn, and hot/cold flashes. It can linger in the background for years before a full vomiting episode occurs. The Path to Healing: While the clinical textbook demands absolute abstinence, Dr. Peterson shares real-world data showing how patients actually navigate recovery, the limitations of hot baths as temporary relief, and the potential future role of minor cannabinoids like CBG for harm reduction.

Erich Schaffer critiques the “super greenhouse effect” and argues that tropical outgoing longwave radiation stays flat mainly because tropospheric temperature is sluggish relative to surface temperature, not because water vapor amplifies greenhouse trapping. He says regional and seasonal proxies for water vapor feedback are invalid (citing admissions by Ramanathan/Inamdar and Dessler et al.) and claims interannual proxy results are distorted by aspect-ratio choices and improper OLS regression, advocating TLS or rotated-benchmark methods. Reanalyzing published plots (Spencer, Lindzen-Choi, Chung, Andy May), he concludes water vapor plus lapse rate implies strong negative feedback and low ECS (~1 K). He also alleges data “fudging” and broader scientific incompetence.00:00 Super Greenhouse Effect02:20 OLR Calculations Explained03:28 Troposphere Sluggishness05:32 Ramanathan Admission10:23 Feedback Breakdown Math12:37 Two Proxies Debunked14:05 Revisiting Interannual Proxy16:02 Bad Regression Plotting17:16 Aspect Ratio Distortion23:45 OLS vs TLS Regression30:53 Negative Feedback Emerges33:22 Spencer Regression Mystery37:45 Lindzen Choi Critique41:03 Fixing Lindzen Plot51:17 Recent Andy May Example53:21 Rotate Plot Method55:19 Benchmark Slope Trick57:38 Questionable Outliers01:01:26 Proxies Fall Apart01:02:22 Lapse Rate Physics01:05:45 Tropical Hotspot Feedback01:11:10 AR6 Codependency Critique01:14:24 MODTRAN Water Vapor Test01:19:44 Emission Altitudes Explained01:25:22 Net Feedback and ECS01:27:17 Blunders and Sociology01:40:54 Q&A and Takeaway01:44:44 Bonus Coal Math Error01:47:42 Wrap UpErich Schaffer: “Water Vapor Feedback, Part One”: https://youtu.be/2O4mOf9gk-shttps://x.com/erich_schafferhttps://greenhousedefect.com/=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

WarDocs - The Military Medicine Podcast
Face Fears, Build Confidence, Lead: CAPT (Ret) Kimberly Elenberg DNP RN on Growth and Innovation in Military Medicine and Beyond

WarDocs - The Military Medicine Podcast

    Few careers in military medicine trace an arc as wide as that of CAPT (Ret) Kimberly Elenberg, DNP, RN. In this episode she sits down with WarDocs to map a journey that began as an ROTC cadet who joined because she saw students rappelling down a building in Philadelphia, and that has since carried her from the bedside at Walter Reed Army Medical Center to the role of principal investigator on a Carnegie Mellon University team competing in the DARPA Triage Challenge. Along the way she changed uniforms, disciplines, and altitudes of responsibility, but never lost the thread that ties it all together: people first, and the relationships that make hard things possible.     CAPT (Ret) Elenberg describes how early mentors shaped her. Colonel Graham showed her that putting people first is a practice, not a slogan. Major McGee backed her instinct for innovation, and as a young nurse on Ward 51 she built one of the first patient education centers in a military treatment facility, learned to set up networks and hardware, and pursued nursing informatics before the field was common. She recounts moving to research at NIH, where her work on TPA for clearing central line catheters was later adopted as best clinical practice, and her decision to volunteer as an EMT and medic so she would understand field medicine as well as hospital medicine.       From there the conversation follows her into the U.S. Public Health Service, where after 9/11 the Surgeon General asked her to help build the nation's deployable response teams from concept to operation, training them in real communities facing real crises. She explains how anthrax and zoonotic disease drew public health into agriculture and food security, how her long relationship with Carnegie Mellon's Auton Lab began with a bus trip and a phone call, and how that mathematical grounding in probabilistic modeling resurfaced when she was asked to model the effects of policy during COVID and, later, to track military security assistance flowing to Ukraine.     The episode closes on the present and the future: autonomous triage payloads that can read a casualty's physiological state without touching them, robotic snakes that might pack non-compressible hemorrhage, swarms of drones and ground robots that find the wounded and feed the right information to the right echelon. Throughout, CAPT (Ret) Elenberg returns to her core lessons — trust your chain of command, define what success really looks like, build on small wins, and never limit yourself to your military occupational specialty. From an orphanage and a food-service background to teaching at the National Defense University, hers is a story about doors held open and relationships that endure. Chapters (00:54-07:11) From Rappelling Cadet to Innovating Army Nurse (07:11-16:48) Building the Nation's Public Health Response Teams (16:48-22:24) Biosurveillance Modeling COVID and Ukraine Aid (22:24-32:32) The Power of Relationships Across a Career (32:32-37:37) Autonomy Confidence and Knowing When to Explore (37:37-51:33) The DARPA Triage Challenge and Lessons That Last Chapter Summaries (00:54-07:11) From Rappelling Cadet to Innovating Army Nurse The guest traces her start as an ROTC cadet drawn in by students rappelling down a Philadelphia building, her commissioning as an Army nurse, and her first duty station at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Early mentors, including Colonel Graham and Major McGee, taught her that people truly come first and backed her instinct for innovation. On Ward 51 she built one of the first patient education centers in a military treatment facility while teaching herself websites, networking, and nursing informatics.   (07:11-16:48) Building the Nation's Public Health Response Teams Her NIH research on TPA for central line catheters was later adopted as best clinical practice, and she volunteered as an EMT and medic to learn field medicine. After moving to the U.S. Public Health Service for family stability, she answered the Surgeon General's call following 9/11 to build the nation's deployable response teams from concept to operation. Anthrax and zoonotic disease pulled public health into agriculture and food security across the federal enterprise.   (16:48-22:24) Biosurveillance Modeling COVID and Ukraine Aid Tasked to advise on detecting events and discerning intent, she leaned into probabilistic modeling and a long relationship with Carnegie Mellon's Auton Lab that began with a bus trip and a phone call. As Director of Population Health at the Defense Health Agency she modeled total force fitness, then was asked to model the effects of policy during COVID rather than the disease itself. The work forced coordination across agencies, departments, and services on a scale not seen since World War II.   (22:24-32:32) The Power of Relationships Across a Career Describing herself as an introvert, she explains why relationships are the engine of accomplishment, recalling a Ranger literally pushing her up a mountain during advanced camp after a car accident. Those bonds endured and resurfaced decades later in Texas during the DARPA Triage work. She recounts retiring out of Poland after 28 years, where she stood up a secure network to coordinate 26 non-doctrinal partners supporting aid to Ukraine.   (32:32-37:37) Autonomy Confidence and Knowing When to Explore She makes the case for military service as a path to clinical autonomy and the chance to think, decide, and do research that civilian roles often do not allow. She reflects on how to know when to pursue a new opportunity: trust your chain of command, negotiate and listen when you are the one in charge, and act on principles of doing no harm. Confidence, she says, means not being afraid to fail.   (37:37-51:33) The DARPA Triage Challenge and Lessons That Last She gives a plain-language tour of her team's autonomous triage work — payloads that read physiological state without touching a casualty, visual reasoning models tempered by Bayesian rigor, and platforms that deliver the right information to each echelon. Using a DoD-wide tobacco policy as a case study, she explains the art of the doable and building success on small wins. She closes with advice on confidence, integrity, and holding doors open for the next generation.   Take Home Messages Cross disciplines to scale care: The greatest gains often come from teaming up outside your own specialty. Pairing clinical insight with engineering, informatics, and operations lets a single provider extend capability and capacity far beyond what one profession can deliver alone. People first is a practice, not a slogan: Leaders who genuinely put people first earn the trust that makes hard missions possible. The example of a leader who recognized her team while facing her own serious illness shows that the principle is proven in action, not in words. Relationships are the engine of accomplishment: No one knows everything, and progress depends on the people willing to push you up the mountain. Networks built early endure for decades and can be called on when the mission needs them most. Define what success really looks like: Insisting on the perfect outcome can stall progress entirely; agreeing on the art of the doable moves the mission forward. Real success is often a series of small wins that build on one another over time. Confidence means not being afraid to fail: Growth lives outside the comfort zone, and everyone fails sometimes. Acting with honesty, integrity, and your best effort each day — then trusting tomorrow brings another chance — is what builds lasting confidence.

We take a deep dive into Amazon S3 Files, AWS's exciting new managed file system backed by S3! We kick things off by exploring why S3 isn't a traditional file system, covering everything from the lack of true directories and atomic renames to immutable objects and POSIX access control differences. We then walk through the existing solutions people have used to bridge that gap, like S3FS FUSE, MountPoint for S3, FSx for Lustre, and Storage Gateway. From there, we get into the heart of the episode: how S3 Files works, how to set it up, and how it uses EFS under the hood as a caching layer. We share our own real-world benchmarking results comparing S3 Files against various EFS configurations across Lambda and Fargate, and we discuss a real customer project where we put S3 Files to the test. We also cover the important caveats like eventual consistency, the 60-second write-back delay, the lack of cross-account bucket support, and the cost model so you can make an informed decision.Resources mentionedEpisode 124: S3 PerformanceEpisode 95: Mounting S3 as a FilesystemAmazon S3 FAQs: S3 FilesfourTheorem S3 Files demo code on GitHubAmazon documentation: Understanding how synchronization worksSponsor Thanks to fourTheorem for powering AWS Bites.

Send us Fan MailYour body has a built-in system designed to work with cannabinoids, and once you understand it, edibles make a lot more sense. We're talking about the endocannabinoid system (ECS): what it is, why scientists only officially identified it in the 1990s, and how it quietly regulates mood, pain modulation, sleep cycles, appetite, memory, and immune function in the background every day. If you've ever felt like cannabis “randomly” hits differently, the ECS is a big part of that story.We walk through the ECS in plain language: the endocannabinoids your body makes (including anandamide and 2-AG), the CB1 and CB2 receptors they bind to, and the enzymes that build and break these compounds down. From there, we connect the dots to THC and CBD, why THC-heavy use can drive CB1 receptor downregulation, and why a tolerance break can bring your sensitivity back online. If you use cannabis edibles, you'll also hear why metabolism matters, including the role of the liver and 11-hydroxy-THC.Then we get timely: summer. Heat, circulation changes, dehydration, and even increased outdoor activity can all shift how your ECS behaves, which can change edible onset, intensity, and duration even when your dose stays the same. We close with practical, harm-reducing tips for better dosing: start lower, hydrate early, eat a real meal, and use precise dosing if you make edibles at home.If this helped you see cannabis through a clearer scientific lens, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs the ECS explained, and leave a review so more curious people can find the show.Support the show Visit the website for full show notes, free dosing calculator, quiz, recipes and more.

Pastoral ministry seeks to include all those who feel called to offer their talents for praise and service to the Church. Music is a unique ministry in that, while we want all to join us, those who participate must have some sort of experience in music. It doesn't necessarily need to be professional experience - singing in the shower can count as experience for a new potential choir member, and a simple handbell workshop can familiarize a music minister with starting in the handbell choir. But when it comes to instrumental ensembles, how do we make sure that all those who join us with their instruments in hand feel rooted in an ensemble and confident to work within it?Today we speak to Luke Rosen about just that. Since 2019, Luke Rosen has served as the Director of Choral Music at Evergreen Local Schools, where he has taught middle school and high school choir, music theory, songwriting, and voice class. For 15 years before that, he served as Director of Choral and Liturgical Music at St. John's Jesuit High School. In addition Luke is a published composer with multiple companies, including ECS, Santa Barbara Music Publishing, OCP, Liturgical Press, and GIA/WLP. Today we speak from compositional, directorial, and ministerial viewpoints, all focused on arranging for the unexpected. It's a great conversation as we approach Holy Week.

Paul Burgess presents updates to his Burgess Oceanic Solar CO2 index, claiming it precisely matches satellite temperatures from 1982–2025 without changing its fixed formula, including UAH v6.1 and final 2024–2025 data despite a record-low PDO. He says the index is not a forecasting model and implies ECS is 1°C, with ~25% warming from CO2 and ~22–23% from human CO2 after outgassing. A second paper argues oceans drive low-cloud changes (1–3 year lag), with ~2% cloud decline explaining warming, challenging IPCC positive feedbacks.

Where are you listening from?Curious whether cannabis can actually help your dog or cat—and how to do it without risking a scary night of wobbling and worry? I sit down with veterinarian Dr. Casara Andre to unpack a safe, practical roadmap for pet parents who want evidence-based guidance, not guesswork. From the endocannabinoid system's (ECS) role in pain, mood, and balance to the real differences between THC and CBD in animals, this conversation translates complex science into clear steps you can use today.We explore why dosing isn't simply about body weight, how biphasic effects make more a potential problem, and why journaling sleep, appetite, mobility, and reactivity is the secret to finding the minimum effective dose. You'll learn how to choose products that won't backfire, what a trustworthy certificate of analysis looks like, how to interpret “full spectrum” vs “broad spectrum,” and why a CBD-dominant plant extract with trace THC is often a sensible starting point. We also dig into the overlooked MVPs: CBDA for GI inflammation and nausea, CBG for muscle relaxation and seizure support, and terpene profiles that nudge outcomes toward calm or clarity.If this helped you or someone you love with a furry friend, subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review.

150. Exploring All-New ECS Managed Instances (MI) Mode

Love AWS Fargate, but occasionally hit the “I need more control” wall (GPUs, storage, network bandwidth, instance sizing)? In this episode of AWS Bites, Eoin and Luciano put the brand-new Amazon ECS Managed Instances (ECS MI) under the microscope as the “middle path” between Fargate simplicity and ECS on EC2 flexibility. We unpack what ECS MI actually is and where it fits in the ECS spectrum, especially how it changes the way you think about clusters and capacity providers. From there we get practical: we talk through the pricing model (EC2 pricing with an additional ECS MI fee that can be a bit counterintuitive if you rely heavily on Reserved Instances or Savings Plans), and we share what it feels like to finally get GPU support in an experience that's much closer to Fargate than to “full EC2 fleet management”. To make it real, we walk through what we built: a GPU-enabled worker that transcribes podcast audio using OpenAI Whisper, including the end-to-end setup in CDK (roles, capacity provider wiring, task definitions, and service configuration). Along the way we call out the rough edges we ran into, like configuration options that look like they might enable Spot-style behavior, and the operational realities you should expect, such as tasks taking roughly 3–4 minutes to start when ECS needs to provision fresh capacity. We close by mapping out the workloads where ECS MI shines (queue-driven GPU jobs, HPC-ish compute, tighter storage/network control) and the scenarios where it's probably the wrong choice, like when you need custom AMIs, SSH access, or stricter isolation guarantees.In this episode, we mentioned the following resources: Amazon ECS Managed Instances: ⁠https://aws.amazon.com/ecs/managed-instances/⁠ ECS Managed Instances documentation: ⁠https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/ManagedInstances.html⁠ Amazon Bottlerocket (what it is): ⁠https://aws.amazon.com/bottlerocket/⁠ Our CDK ECS MI template: ⁠https://github.com/fourTheorem/cdk-ecs-mi-template⁠ Ep 42.

Dani reveals how cannabinoids, light, sound, and nature all communicate with our body's receptor fields — shaping the way we feel, heal, and perceive the world.
