For many kids, getting home after school can be a stressful period. There is so much to process from the school day and if the after-school transition isn't properly managed, a child may feel too overwhelmed for anything other than a meltdown. So today, we're taking a look at some helpful tips for easing after-school transitions.  We are joined by Occupational Therapist, Evangeline Abraham, who explains how she got involved in this work and why today's topic sits particularly close to her heart. Then, Van goes deeper into why after-school transitions are a prominent problem, the factors that make a child susceptible to after-school burnouts, the undeniable value of setting a routine, and why she is a big advocate of trial and error. We also discuss why age and grade are important details to consider, as well as the role that transportation plays in balancing or unsettling your child after school.  Key Points From This Episode: Today we will be sharing some tips and tricks for a successful transition home after school.  Introducing Occupational Therapist, Van Abraham, and how she got involved in this work.  Why the transition home from school is difficult for many kids.  Factors that may influence a child's susceptibility to be unsettled at home after school.  What parents can do to ease that school-home transition for their kids.  How to approach homework and playtime.   Why Van is a huge supporter of trial and error. What to look out for if your kids are older (in high school). The role that transportation plays in after-school transitions.   DotCom Therapy

This week, we want to take a step back and focus on planning in times of economic uncertainty. We found a great article from CNBC titled "The Three Money Moves Wealthy Americans are Most Likely to Make in Times of Economic Uncertainty." Let's dive into the key points and expand on what successful people are doing during uncertain times.According to Northwest Mutual, 84% of the wealthiest Americans have a long-term financial plan that accounts for economic ups and downs, compared to only 52% of the general population. This statistic surprises us because it's rare for someone to walk in with a legitimate financial plan. Planning for the unknown is crucial to alleviate anxiety and ensure a smooth transition into retirement.When it comes to retirement, people often wonder how they will pay their bills and maintain their lifestyle. Financial planning helps remove this anxiety by providing a roadmap for the future. The more prepared you are, the more confident you'll be in your ability to navigate different scenarios. It's essential to test how the future could play out and understand how you will respond in various situations.A financial plan is not just about investments; it's about setting goals, developing strategies, and using the right tools. Many people focus solely on their investments without considering the bigger picture. It's crucial to understand why you're saving and what your retirement goals are. Picking the right retirement date and ensuring you have enough savings are essential factors to consider.Asset allocation is another critical aspect of planning for ups and downs. The stock market doesn't go straight up; there are ups and downs along the way. Taking a long-term perspective and having a diversified portfolio can help weather market volatility. It's important to remember that investing is a marathon, not a sprint.Seven out of ten wealthy Americans are working with an advisor. While not all advisors are created equal, one of the most significant benefits of working with an advisor is avoiding behavioral finance errors. Emotional investing can lead to poor decision-making, especially during market turbulence. An advisor provides a detached perspective and helps clients make rational choices based on logic and historical data.An advisor is like a retirement CFO, helping clients make informed financial decisions. They can assist with retirement timing, spending strategies, and even major financial decisions like home renovations. By having a coordinated plan that takes into account investments, taxes, and estate planning, clients can make better financial choices and optimize their long-term outcomes.It's not enough to have a plan; you must also follow through and execute it. The best time to go through the planning process is when the waters are calm. Crisis planning is not ideal, as it can lead to rushed decisions and poor outcomes. By having a well-mapped-out plan in advance, you can have confidence in its success.Financial plans should be regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changing circumstances. Factors like inflation, taxes, and health can impact your financial situation. By refreshing your plan annually, you can ensure that it remains aligned with your goals and adjust as needed. Building conservatism into the plan, using future projected rates of return, and considering tax efficiency are all crucial elements of staying committed to the plan.Remember, financial planning is not a one-time event; it's an ongoing process. Regularly reviewing and updating your plan ensures that it remains aligned with your goals and helps you make informed decisions. By following these three money moves, you can position yourself for financial security and peace of mind in times of economic uncertainty.A day in the life of a Financial Advisor:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tfB-SSYL1A

Zandra Palma, MD practices what she calls “sub-diagnostic analysis and disease reversal,” which is primarily environmental medicine with a touch of functional medicine. Environmental medicine, according to our guest, looks for elegant solutions to chronic health conditions. This often means removing environmental toxins that trigger mitochondrial dysfunction.  Common environmental toxins include heavy metals, pesticides, plastics like BPA, and biotoxins like Lyme and mold—among many others. She also discusses the treatments she uses to reboot mitochondrial function. Her passion is to spread the word about the gravity of the effects environmental toxins have on human health, especially the hormone-disrupting impacts of plastics and BPAs. She recently gave a TEDx talk, which was censored by the TED organization. Thankfully, she was able to rip the video so you can still watch it online. In her talk, she provides specific tips to protect yourself from environmental toxins and recommendations for initiating grass roots movements in your community. Other topics Dr. Palma covered in the conversation include:  Factors that motivate patients to care about their environment, such as weight loss, fertility and the health of future generations   The CLARITY-BPA Program  Why environmentalism is a public health issue And much more!

Dr. Christina Prevett // #GeriOnICE // www.ptonice.com  In today's episode of the PT on ICE Daily Show, Modern Management of the Older Adult division leader Christina Prevett discusses masters athletes who challenge negative age paradigms and serve as role models for younger generations.  According to the episode, the decline in physiological systems can be attributed to both aging and other factors such as inactivity, sedentary behavior, obesity, and chronic diseases. It can be challenging to distinguish between changes in physiological systems solely due to the natural aging process and those influenced by these other factors. However, Christina suggests that psychosocial factors also play a role in positive aging. Factors like loneliness, connectedness, sense of purpose, and the ability to make healthcare decisions not only for oneself but also for others contribute to positive aging. These psychosocial factors are independent of physical capacity and can help individuals maintain a positive aging experience. Christina emphasizes the importance of building and maintaining relationships, connectedness, and the capacity to learn, grow, and contribute in the context of healthy aging. These aspects are relevant not only for older adults but also for all generations, including Gen X, Gen Z, millennials, boomers, and masters athletes. Loneliness is a significant issue in society, affecting people of all age groups, as highlighted in the episode. Building and maintaining connections and relationships are crucial for sustaining healthy lifestyle factors and combating the loneliness epidemic. This is particularly relevant for older adults, who may struggle to maintain relationships as they age. Christina mentions the challenges of making new friends as an adult, as expressed by her grandmother. The masters athletes discussed in the episode serve as examples of individuals who demonstrate the importance of these aspects in healthy aging. They not only prioritize their physical performance but also value psychosocial considerations. Masters athletes have the opportunity to build relationships with individuals across different age groups who share similar mindsets regarding health promotion. This allows for the exchange of knowledge and the adoption of healthy lifestyle factors. Furthermore, masters athletes have the capacity to learn, grow, and make decisions. They challenge negative age paradigms and combat belief systems around aging through their athleticism. They set goals not only for their own performance but also for serving as role models to younger generations within their family and sport. Masters athletes also contribute positively to their sport by creating mentorship opportunities for younger athletes. They serve as examples of successful aging and contribute to the overall belief in the ideology of successful aging. Overall, this episode emphasizes that building and maintaining relationships, connectedness, and the capacity to learn, grow, and contribute are essential aspects of healthy aging for all generations, including older adults and masters athletes. These aspects not only contribute to physical well-being but also to psychosocial well-being and the overall belief in successful aging.

Enjoy today's show. 01:43 CHRISTINA PREVETT Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the PT on Ice Daily Show. My name is Christina Prevett. I am one of the lead faculty within our modern management of the older adult division. We have three courses in our geriatric curriculum that encompass CERT MMOA. We have our eight week online essential foundations course with our next course starting October 11th. We have our eight week online advanced concepts course, which if you have taken our essential foundations, you are eligible for advanced concepts that starts October 12th. And then we have our two day live course that we still have quite a few courses for the remainder of 2023 if you were looking to get involved. So we are in Falls Church, Virginia, October 7th and 8th. I am in Fountain Valley, California on the 14th and 15th. And then we are in Mattawa, New Jersey on the 21st and 22nd. And if you did not see that we are currently in what I call revamp season, we just updated our live content for MMA Live. And if you are in advanced concepts coming up in October, you are going to be getting brand new material. And I am so, so excited about that. 00:00 THE MASTERS ATHLETE And what we are going to talk about today is some of that content relating to the master's athlete. When we think about our geriatric curriculum, let's be honest, we are not talking about master's athletes most of the time, right? We often will talk about this sickness, wellness, fitness continuum. And when we talk to our geriatric clinicians who are on our calls or taking our courses, and we say, you know, what percentage of individuals are in the sickness or the completely sedentary side of the spectrum, We're talking about the majority, right? We're talking about the majority. We're getting individuals who are saying 80, 90% of their caseload is completely sedentary or is struggling with the chronic disease burden from multimorbidity. And very few of our clinicians are working with the master's athlete. So why do we care about this group? Well, one, we want to cover the full spectrum of geriatrics. But secondly, there is this really neat kind of underpinning that we are gaining from a research perspective when we are evaluating the master's athlete. When we talk about aging physiology, it can be really tough to tease apart what is what we would call the natural history of getting older, what are things that we can expect to change across our physiological systems as a consequence of getting older, and what are the contributions of other things to that aging process. We talk about how we have accelerators and brakes to the aging process, and we can stack the deck in our favor, and then we're just talking about risks and statistics. And one of those things is that as we get older, we tend to move less. We tend to be more sedentary. Obesity rates can go up. And chronic disease, one of the biggest risk factors across all categories, is age. And so we have this hard time teasing apart what is from the aging process and what is from the inactivity, the compounding effect of sedentary behavior, kind of what are those influences? And so the masters athlete has, especially for our lifelong exercisers, those who are veterans, who have never really stepped away from the sport for very long, we're starting to get some ideas and tease apart, you know, what is an aging process and what is accelerated because of changes related to inactivity, obesity, chronic disease. And so I kind of want to tie this in. So we have this physiological change. 06:05 CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS IN AGING And when we look at, for example, in the cardiovascular system, our masters endurance athletes maintain their VO2 max by about 57%. And our endurance athletes, when we compare our masters endurance athletes in their 70s, have a lower VO2 max than our endurance athletes in their 20s, but a similar VO2 max to our younger individuals in their 20s who are completely sedentary. And so that is showing that while yes, there is a change to our cardiovascular output, our max heart rate is going to go down, our stroke output, our stroke volume, our cardiac output is going to decrease. Our amount of deconditioning in our VO2 max as a marker of cardiovascular fitness is a slower blunting than maybe we had previously thought. And things like our ejection fraction and our resting heart rate actually do not change with age in a healthy, cardiovascularly conditioned older adult. And to me, that's fascinating. So we're looking at that from the endurance side. When we flip to the strength side, we see that our raw strength in our power lifters is relatively maintained and up until about the fifth decade of life. So an individual squat bench deadlift, as long as they stay injury free and training volume remains pretty consistent, we're going to maintain those numbers for quite some time. 08:50 TYPE 2 FIBER REDISTRIBUTION And then as we go into different age groups over the age of 40, we're going to start to see some blunting down of that strength effect as a consequence of age. We talk about in the musculoskeletal system though, that there is this change in this redistribution of our muscular fibers, where we see a shift from this composition that has a bias towards type two fibers in certain muscle groups. And we see this shift towards more of a type one slow twitch fiber archetype in many of our muscles. And we seem to see that this is true in our strength athletes as well. And the way we're starting to gain insight into this information is by comparing our power lifters and our weight lifters. So our power lifters are slow strength movements. We have the squat, the bench, the deadlift. For our weightlifters, we are working on speed strength. So we are going to get those type two fibers at high percentages of our one rep max, but we're also gonna try and preferentially activate them with some of these fast twitch movements, such as the clean and jerk and the snatch. And we start to see that the open records for weightlifting in age groups decline much steeper. That means that we are still seeing this switch of type 2 fibers. That does not mean that we don't train power and we're going to try and have this use it or lose it principle that holds true for everything. But we know that that type 2 fiber redistribution is part of this aging physiology that we can expect to see in many of our older adults. Taking a step back from that, it's super interesting to see that we are getting this heightened or slower rate of cardiovascular aging in our endurance athletes. And we're getting this relatively slower change in the musculoskeletal system in our strength athletes. And that specificity principle appears to hold true. And it's something that we see very consistently in our rehabilitation efforts, right? We are trying to train the person's body to not experience pain, dysfunction, or loss of physical function in the exercises, in the movements, in the day-to-day tasks that are important to our individuals. And so when I step back and think about myself as a person in my 30s who's going to try to hold on to my physical function for as long as possible, somebody who maybe isn't in the highest level of competition, but would still consider myself to be very much an athlete, this idea of training both systems I think is extremely important and extremely relevant in our messaging for maintaining physical function. We see oftentimes that we focus in strength training for very good reason. Oftentimes our older adults, unless there's a significant amount of cardiovascular compromise, are losing the strength to complete activities of daily living, like getting off the floor or being able to get up from a chair without using their hands before their cardiovascular system. In our kind of community dwelling older adults, not our individuals with pulmonary pathologies like congestive heart failure or COPD, that cardiovascular system isn't being the limiting factor as often. But what we want to be thinking about is how do we optimize the reserve in both of these systems and how do we slow down the slope of the line? In I'm MMOA, we talk about how we do not want to think that successful aging is just related to physical function. Physical function is a really important part of aging frameworks. and successful aging frameworks, but it is not the only thing. And so I kind of want to take this conversation and then take it a step further. So while yes, we see that our masters athletes are able to have a blunting of the changes in physical function that we see with aging, as a consequence of optimizing their physical reserve earlier in life and then maintaining that optimized physical function into later decades. Where we want to also bridge this is towards some of the frameworks that we're seeing with healthy aging. So the World Health Organization put out a healthy aging framework with the idea of having this decade-long initiative that internationally we are going to try to be encouraging healthy aging initiatives because our global population is aging and that is going to put a massive burden on our healthcare system. And there's a lot of things that we need to think about. And so their framework is really brilliant in that they talk about the ability to meet basic needs and the ability to maintain mobility, like their ability to be mobile around their community. And I think our Masters athletes are good examples of what this might look like in order to try and maintain this type of physical function. 14:58 BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS IN AGING But the other three things are important considerations as well and do not relate directly to physical function, but there are some kind of extensions or indirect relationships that we can make. And those are the ability to build and maintain relationships, so that connection, the ability to learn, grow, and make decisions, so autonomy in some ways and purpose, and the ability to contribute, which really kind of ties into that purpose conversation. And if you listen to the MMOA podcast, Ellen and I were just on that platform, if you want to take a look, talking about the blue zones. And this was a series that was done on Netflix that talked about these areas around the world that have a higher percentage of individuals living over 100 compared to global norms. And where they were talking about this was not only related to physical function, where physical function was something that we were considering, but they also talked about some of these biopsychosocial considerations like building and maintaining relationships and that contribution to that other aspect of a person's soul and a person's being. When we look at the Masters athletes and we look at qualitative systematic protocols or systematic studies that are looking at some of the other indirect indicators of what a Masters athlete values outside of their physical performance, they kind of touch on these other aspects of the healthy aging framework. where the ability to maintain relationships, one of the things that can be a big struggle for our older adults, and my grandmother who was in her 90s said this beautifully, she said, everybody I know is dying. And Having, building new friends as a grownup is extremely hard. And so one of the other things that our master's athlete literature is really demonstrating is some of these other bio, or these psychosocial considerations that are just so important when an individual is aging. So what they're showing is that our older adults who are master's athletes continuing to compete have this avenue to build relationships with individuals across different age cohorts that have similar mindsets related to health promotion. And that's so important, right? We see that we tend to take on a lot of the lifestyle factors of the individuals who are closest to us. Our literature shows that if we are around individuals who are in the overweight or obese categories, we are more likely to be overweight or obese. The business sentence is, if you are the smartest person in the room, you are in the wrong room. And that's around this building and maintaining of connections and relationships that also have this trickling effect of helping to sustain healthy lifestyle factors. And this loneliness epidemic is so relevant now for all generations, Gen X, Gen Z, millennials, boomers, and some of our older adults. Like all of this connectedness is such an important part of healthy aging. And we're seeing this in our masters athletes as well. And then finally, this capacity to learn, grow and make decisions and the ability to contribute. Our masters athletes are also demonstrating this because they talk about this capacity with athleticism to combat belief systems around aging, to start tackling some of these negative age paradigms, to be able to have goals related to not only what their performance is, but role modeling their athleticism to younger generations within their family and within their sport. and their capacity to be able to create this mentorship for some of their younger athletes that allows them to contribute very positively to their sport. And so not only are we seeing that physiologically within our systems, our masters athletes are blunting some of the slopes of the line across different organ systems, but we're also seeing some of these indirect psychosocial positive contributions of individuals in the Masters Athlete space that are contributing to this overall belief around Masters Athletes having an ideology around successful aging. 17:23 MASTERS ATHLETES & CHRONIC DISEASE Some of our masters athletes, we kind of consider them to be completely free of chronic disease. And while we do see a lower incidence of chronic disease, like cardiovascular disease and diabetes, for example, in our masters athletes who have continued being active throughout their life, that does not mean that they are immune, but it does mean that when they are diagnosed with things like chronic conditions, that they are better able to manage those disease processes because they have these healthy lifestyle factors that are going to slow down the disease process. So all of these things kind of coming full circle, where we are looking at the master's athlete that while yes, in many of our older adults that we are teaching for clinicians, they are not going to be primarily focused in the master's athlete category. They do give us a lot of insight into the rates of loss in physiological systems and what we can attribute truly to aging versus other confounding variables such as inactivity, sedentary behavior, obesity, chronic disease burden. And then we can also see how some of the influence of these other psychosocial factors, this loneliness epidemic that we are seeing, this connectedness that is needed, this sense of purpose and the capacity to take risk and be a contributing factor to not only their own healthcare decisions, but those of their family and the people around them that are trusting them with their wisdom and knowledge and experience is a way for us to see this positive aging cohort that is also independent of their physical capacity that they are able to maintain. All right, I ended up going a little bit long, but I think this is such an important conversation. And not just for our older adults who are already in these age cohorts, but anybody who is listening, who is thinking about themselves as an athlete. Because we see in the literature that the Masters athlete is defined as anybody who is kind of reasonably beyond the open retirement age, but is continuing to train and compete in sport for the purpose of physical fitness. But in MMA, we think about it as anyone who wants to intentionally move their body towards a goal. And that may be all of you that are listening to this. It's like, how can you put in that master's athlete mindset into your own life to connect with other people with like-minded goals, to be able to optimize your physical function if you are listening and you are 30 or 40 or 50? to maintain that when you are 80? And then how can we do this to help drive purpose in our lives, to allow for that feeling of fulfillment that is just so important to maintain as we get older?

For more than a year the Reserve Bank hiked interest rates to the highest level in decades and there were lots of warnings about an imminent collapse of the Australian housing market. And these warnings came from banks and institutional economists as well as the usual property pessimists! Not many people expected interest rates to rise so high and so fast, and not many people expected the most interest rate-sensitive portion of the economy, our housing markets, to be so resilient. Today, financial advisor Stuart Wemyss and I discuss the reasons why many predictions were way off, highlighting the role of market dynamics and interest rates. We discuss the challenges of predicting the market bottom and explore the cognitive biases that could cloud judgment. Learn about how the housing bears got it so wrong and whose advice should you be listening to as you plan for what's ahead in the property market. How Did Economists Get Their Property Predictions So Wrong? In my chat with Stuart, we look into: ●        Factors to consider when reading forecasts o   The psychology of homeowners o   What's happening on the ground ●        The inaccuracies in Australian housing market forecasts by economists and banks ●        The potential dangers of blindly believing in market 'experts' ●        The financial stress endured by homeowners and the significant role of market dynamics and interest rates ●        The change in bank forecasts and reasons behind the shift ●        The challenge of predicting the market bottom in long-term property investments ●        The impact of cognitive biases on decision-making in property investment ●        Importance of an evidence-based approach focusing on long-term investment and compounding capital growth ●        Emphasis on strategy over luck in successful property investment We emphasize the importance of an evidence-based approach in property investment. We highlight the role of strategy over luck, and the need to learn from failures rather than shying away from them.

Let's talk about protein. We often think that increasing protein helps build muscle because muscle is made of protein. But this doesn't always work. Some people that eat more protein may even suffer from amino acid deficiency. You need sufficient amounts of protein to build muscle, but, more importantly, you need sufficient amino acids. The general thought is that you need .8 grams of protein per kilogram of lean body mass—not overall weight. This might look like around 50 grams of protein per day. A moderate amount of protein would be between 1.2 and 1.7 grams per kilogram of lean body mass. High protein would be about 2 grams per kilogram of lean body mass. It's essential to focus on consuming quality protein from eggs, meat, fish, and dairy. It's not ideal to rely on getting your protein from plant sources or protein powder to build healthy muscles. Factors that influence the production of muscle protein: 1. Insulin resistance What to do: • Get on a low-carb diet (Healthy Keto®) • Do intermittent fasting 2. Growth hormone What to do: • Intense exercise • Get plenty of sleep • Do intermittent fasting 3. Testosterone What to do: • Consume zinc (red meat, shellfish, seafood) • Avoid refined carbs and sugar • Lower your stress • Avoid soy protein isolates, soy milk, beer, and alcohol 4. Stress What to do: • Take a look at my other videos on how to lower stress 5. The microbiome What to do: • Consume probiotic foods 6. Low stomach acid What to do: • Take betaine hydrochloride 7. Low enzymes in the pancreas or small intestine What to do: • Consume enzyme-rich foods • Take an amino acid supplement 8. Lean protein What to do: • Consume fattier protein sources

Morgan White Jr. filled in on NightSide:As ocean temps rise, will storms like Hurricane Lee increase? UMass Lowell Meteorologist Frank Colby joined Morgan to give an update on Hurricane Lee, answer weather and climate questions, and talk about what's left this hurricane season and what could lie ahead for winter.

Introduction: Welcome to West Virginia Uncommonplace, a podcast that explores untold stories and unique aspects of life in West Virginia. In this thought-provoking episode, host Jr. delves into the complex issue of racial disparity in the mountain state, examining its historical roots, current challenges, and potential solutions. Historical Context: West Virginia's rich cultural heritage is shaped by its indigenous tribes and waves of European immigrants seeking opportunities in coal mines and industrial towns. However, the state's history also includes the institution of slavery, followed by segregation and Jim Crow laws, which have left a lasting impact on its social, economic, and political landscape. Education Disparities: Racial disparities are evident in West Virginia's education system, with African American students scoring lower on standardized tests and experiencing lower graduation rates compared to their white counterparts. Factors such as underfunded schools, resource disparities, and limited access to quality teachers contribute to these disparities. Employment Disparities: Racial disparities manifest in hiring practices, wage gaps, and disparities in career advancement. African Americans in West Virginia face higher unemployment rates and earn less than their white counterparts. Wage gaps and income disparities persist, with African American households having a lower median income compared to white households. Healthcare Disparities: West Virginia's healthcare system reflects significant racial disparities. African Americans in the state experience higher rates of chronic conditions, limited access to healthcare in rural areas, higher uninsured rates, and cultural barriers. These factors contribute to disparities in health outcomes between racial groups. Criminal Justice Disparities: Racial disparities are glaring within West Virginia's criminal justice system, with African Americans being incarcerated at a significantly higher rate than white individuals. Addressing issues such as implicit bias, sentence disparities, and over-policing of minority communities is crucial in promoting fair and equal treatment within the criminal justice system. Grassroots Efforts and Community Engagement: Despite these disparities, numerous organizations, grassroots initiatives, advocacy groups, and community organizations actively work to address racial inequalities and promote social justice. Fostering dialogue, understanding, and supporting diverse voices can help challenge stereotypes, break down barriers, and promote a more inclusive and equitable society in West Virginia. Conclusion: Change is possible, and by amplifying diverse voices, supporting initiatives that address systematic racism, and fostering inclusivity, West Virginia can work towards a future of equality and justice for all. Jr. encourages listeners to continue the conversation, challenge assumptions, and contribute to the collective effort of building a more just and inclusive Mountain State. Outro: Thank you for joining us on this extended episode of West Virginia Uncommonplace. Share your thoughts, experiences, and insights on racial disparity in West Virginia by reaching out via email or on social media. Let's continue the dialogue and work together to create a brighter and more equal future for everyone in the Mountain State. Jr. from West Virginia Uncommonplace, signing off.

US stocks rallied with risk sentiment spurred by several factors including strong US data, a dovish ECB hike, the PBoC RRR cut, and a blockbuster Arm IPO.APAC stocks gained after global risk was fuelled by the upside in Europe and the US; Hang Seng and Shanghai Comp were both initially underpinned by the encouraging Chinese activity data.DXY marginally softened but held on to most of the prior day's gains above the 105.00 level while EUR/USD languished around a 6-month low.China's NBS said the economy saw accelerated demand, but domestic demand remains insufficient, while the PBoC maintained its MLF rate.Several of the ECB's more hawkish rate-setters believe that rates could rise again in December, in the scenario of hot wages and inflation, via FT citing sources.Looking ahead, highlights include French & Italian CPI (Final), EZ Labour Costs, Italian Trade Balance, US UoM Sentiment, NY Fed Manufacturing, Import & Export Prices, BoE/IPSOS Inflation Attitude Survey, ECB TLTRO Repayment Publication, Speeches from ECB's Lagarde & CBR's Nabiullina and Quad Witching.Read the full report covering Equities, Forex, Fixed Income, Commodites and more on Newsquawk

Hunter Biden has been indicted on three gun charges - marking the first time in US history that the Justice Department has charged the child of a sitting president.

Four of the five officers federally indicted in the deadly police beating of Tyre Nichols have pleaded not guilty. And, experts say years of government negligence is one of many contributing factors in the aftermath of catastrophic flooding in Libya.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

PLG is a methodology that focuses on using the product as the primary conduit for acquiring users, driving sales, and retaining customers. Oliver explains that PLG is effective for certain personas and products, but it requires careful planning and consideration as companies scale.

Ready to take action towards a healthier, happier life? We know age is just a number. But as each birthday passes, it's easy to start feeling the physical and mental changes in our bodies.  That's why I'm here today with Dr. Kara Fitzgerald. So you can have the tools to reverse your biological age and feel like your best.  Even reversing our inner age by one year massively extends our quality of life. And that's my ultimate goal for myself and you too– to increase our inner age and push back chronic disease for as long as possible.  Think about all the years you've worked hard to save money.
