Per alcune persone le ore della mattina sono le più produttive, mentre altre si sentono più energiche il pomeriggio o la sera. Perché? La scienza ci fornisce alcune spiegazioni e la lingua italiana ci offre espressioni che catturano questi diversi stili di vita! Per i mattinieri infatti il modo di dire migliore è proprio “il mattino ha l'oro in bocca”! Ma perché in questa puntata parliamo anche del film capolavoro di Stanley Kubrick “Shining”?

English: For more than a decade under cover of darkness, Matthew Dear slips out of his usual guise as pop-music innovator and exorcises his dancefloor demons through his constantly shifting alter-ego, Audion. Over the years, Dear has steered the Audion sound from grime-flecked minimalism to sinewy funk to relentless floor-fillers and back, but Audion's core remains constant: an itchy forward momentum, an eye-popping visual aesthetic, and a dedication to high-class body music. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Español: Lleva más de una década al amparo de la oscuridad, Matthew Dear se escabulle de su disfraz habitual de innovador de la música pop y exorciza sus demonios de la pista de baile a través de su alter-ego, Audion, en constante cambio. A lo largo de los años, Dear ha dirigido el sonido Audion desde el minimalismo tenebroso hasta el funk sinuoso, pasando por los implacables llenadores de pistas, pero el núcleo de Audion se mantiene constante: un ímpetu que pica hacia adelante, una estética visual llamativa y una dedicación a la música corporal de alto nivel.

Surfeur archi-passionné, Hervé a fait ses armes chez Hoff à la fin des 90's avant de prendre la direction marketing d'une marque hors-captive de chaussures. Son retour dans l'industrie se fera à travers Omareef, la division techniquede Quiksilver considéré autant comme un centre de formation accéléré de surf-business-sous la houlette de PierreAgnès-qu'un village gaulois. Ce seront les fameuses "années Canal" de Quiksilver : croissance à deux chiffres, surf team n°1, événements XXL et budgets marketingpharaoniques. Un laboratoire créatif pour Hervé qui s'occuperad'autres marques hautes en couleurs du groupe, dont Gotcha. Son aventure professionnelle se poursuivra en dehors de Quiksilver, d'abord dans le conseil marketing puis dans lebusiness avec la création de Surf Lounge spécialisé dans la distribution de matériel surf haut de gamme. Un nouveaumétier, une nouvelle corde à son arc, et un succès qui ne se fait que se confirmer depuis avec dans son portefeuillecertaines des marques les plus prestigieuses du marché mais aussi la sienne : Greenbush.

An incredibly passionate surfer, Hervé started out at Hoff in the late 90's before becoming Marketing Manager for a non-captive footwear brand. He would later return to the surfing industry, joining Omareef, Quiksilver's technical/core division, often referred to a « crash-course in surfing business » (under the supervision of Pierre Agnès) or a « one of a kind business ». Those were the days of Quiksilver's golden years: growth in the double-digits, the world's leading pro riders, XXL events and phenomenal budgets in marketing. For Hervé, it would become his own creative testing ground where he would also come to manage other key brands, namely Gotcha. His career then took him away from the Quiksilver family, leading him first into marketing consulting and later to become an entrepreneur with the creation of the Surf Lounge, specialising in high-end surf hardware retail. A new trade, new skills and once again success at the end of the road, all confirmed by his impressive portfolio, which includes the biggest brands out there, as well as his own: Greenbush. This episode promises to be a gold-mine of information, in which Hervé will discuss a variety of themes including audacity, surfing culture, what it means to be an entrepreneur and to have vision. He will share his experience as well as his perception to provide a SWOT analysis of the current market and how he sees it evolving. Enjoy the ride. Editorial production: EUROSIMA

In this episode of PayTechTalk, Nicolas Weber from Amazing Blocks is my guest. We talk about tokenization of assets in Liechtenstein and what role Amazing Blocks plays in this. In Liechtenstein and together with Amazing Blocks, it is possible to map the entire lifecycle of tokenization projects. This means on the one hand 1) planning of tokenization in Liechtenstein and passporting of securities in the EEA 2) incorporation process of legal entities in Liechtenstein and 3) a turnkey tokenization solution where an SPV and a CEO are provided. In addition, Amazing Blocks offers software solutions for the issuance and management of tokenized securities of any kind - with a focus on true-equity tokens as defined by the Liechtenstein Token Law - including, for example, a digital shareholder register. In the podcast, we go into the Liechtenstein model, discuss what all can be tokenized and how the instruments could be distributed to Germany and other EEA countries. Have fun listening in!

It's a huge help for "travelers" (commuters): my journey from my home to job (work) is about 120 km (1 hour...). I use your podcast to take my English to the next level. Currently, I'm preparing my C1. Would you mind to speak (speaking) about academic English? For example keywords I must use in the university with some colleagues, research concepts (paper, article, stay, fellowship...) I think there's a lot of material on the internet, but it's a disaster... There's no order at all. Thanks in advance (excuse me for my poor English) and continue with the programs!Kind regards, Jesús Vélez   ACADEMIC ENGLISH Academic English style is generally evident in a:Journal (like a technical/academic magazine); Text book; Essay; Academic article; Report; Dissertation; Thesis; etc. WRITTENLecture; Talk; Workshop; Presentation; Tutorial; Seminar; Conference; etc. SPOKEN Different style of language compared to General English. Key features include: More abstract, more impersonal, more structured, more organised, usually formal (written), often more technical, often more complex, avoids ambiguity, may include references to other sources. -Avoid personal pronouns, eg. I, me, you, us, etc. -Use the Passive (to be impersonal): eg. the liquid was heated to 20 degrees C; it can be seen that the species evolved. -Avoid contractions in written academic Eng., but usually OK spoken:eg. It will not be resolved (not “won’t”); the conclusions are not definitive (not “aren’t”) -Nominalisation = using nouns rather than verbs. This sounds more academic:eg. “...the Norman invasion of Britain in 1066, provoking a huge linguistic change.” is better than “...when the Normans invaded Britain in 1066 and it provoked a huge change.” -Use plenty of linking words or signpost your discourse: eg. Firstly; Secondly; Next; A further point; Finally; Lastly - LISTING Moreover; In addition (to); Additionally; Furthermore; What is more - ADDING INFO. However; Nevertheless; Nonetheless; Despite; In spite of; Whereas; Whilst; Although; Albeit; Notwithstanding; Be that as it may; On the other hand - CONTRAST/CONCESSION For example/instance; As an/one example; As exemplified by___; To illustrate - EXAMPLE According to Smith (1987); As Smith (1987) said; Smith (1987) wrote/stated - REFERENCE In conclusion; To conclude; To sum up; In brief; All in all; In short - CONCLUSION   Italki ad - Reza’s experience with a French teacher, Justine.   Common university campus terms: There are usually several departments in one faculty eg. the Department of Physics in the Science Faculty bachelor’s degree; master’s degree - comes after or is longer than a bachelor’s degree eg.
