Wizz Air takes pride in having the lowest carbon footprint per passenger and kilometer in the airline industry, 52g, number that it expects to bring further down as it renews the fleet with larger, denser and more efficient aircraft.But fleet renewal alone won't do the trick. In fact, “fleet” is just one of the three “Fs” that the pan-European ultra-low-cost airline relies on to get to Net Zero by 2050, even in a context of growing air traffic.“Footprint”, that is, efficiency improvements in the way aircraft are operates, is another, relatively minor “F” in this vision. But the bulk of the carbon reduction will rest upon the massive use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).Since production of SAF is currently small, Wizz Air has decided to take a proactive stance and become a direct investor in a number of innovative SAF projects, one of the most promising of which is Firefly, a British startup that turns sewage into SAF.In this episode of the podcast, Yvonne Moynihan, head of ESG and sustainability at Wizz Air, and James Hygate OBE, founder and CEO of Firefly, share the (virtual) stage to explain this project in detail. We will talk about how Firefly technology works, how scalable it is and how does this project fit into Wizz Air's SAF-sourcing ans well as in the airline's broader decarbonization plans. Tune in for a fascinating chat about one of the most interesting SAF projects right now in Europe and how it will help Wizz Air strengthen its sustainability credentials even further…

The Green Hornet Radio Show: "The Green Hornet," a thrilling radio adventure series, first buzzed onto the airwaves in January 1936, captivating audiences with its tales of a masked vigilante battling crime. The initial portrayal of Britt Reid/The Green Hornet was voiced by Al Hodge, who was later succeeded by several other actors, most notably Brace Beemer, who became synonymous with the role for many listeners. Kato, Reid's loyal valet and skilled martial arts expert, was famously voiced by Tokutaro Hayashi and later Rollon Parker. The show's central premise revolved around Britt Reid, a wealthy newspaper publisher who secretly operated as The Green Hornet by night. Using his resources, along with Kato's fighting prowess and their signature gas gun, they fought criminals while maintaining Reid's public facade as a playboy. The target audience for "The Green Hornet" was broad, appealing to both younger listeners with its action and adventure and older audiences with its suspenseful storylines and charismatic lead. The original radio run spanned over fifteen years, concluding in December 1952, leaving a lasting impact on popular culture. Throughout its run, the show featured contributions from various talented actors and writers who helped shape its enduring appeal, including Fran Striker, the creator of both "The Green Hornet" and "The Lone Ranger."TakeawaysThe Green Hornet is a vigilante who intervenes in crime.Firefly is a racehorse at the center of a murder mystery.A character named Jerry is murdered, raising suspicions.The race is suspected to be fixed by professional gamblers.The investigation reveals connections to a gambling syndicate.The Green Hornet aims to restore integrity to the race.Characters express doubt about the true identity of Firefly.Tension builds as the race day approaches.The story highlights themes of justice and corruption.The narrative combines elements of suspense and action.Green Hornet, horse racing, murder mystery, race fixing, Firefly, gambling syndicate, crime, investigation, suspense, thriller

In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Cooper Johnston to discuss his journey recovering from an ACL injury in his knee.Cooper Johnston's passion for soccer began at the age of three. From the outset, his goal was clear: to compete at the highest level. His journey started with SFC before advancing to Salisbury United Soccer Club (SUSC) in fourth grade, where his relentless work ethic began to separate him.By the time he reached high school, Cooper had earned a spot on varsity as a freshman and was selected for the prestigious Olympic Development Program which he played for his freshman and sophomore years. It was during this period that he met his trainer Chase Humphrey—an inflection point that really took his game to the next level.Following his junior year, Cooper transitioned to Maryland United. Over two years, he juggled high-level club play with high school leadership, ultimately captaining the James M. Bennett High School team to a state championship as a senior.But Cooper's story is not just one of triumph it came with many setbacks and injuries, but one injury stood out over the rest. After his senior season, he suffered a torn ACL—a devastating injury just months before stepping into the world of college soccer. For many, this would have been the end of the road. For Cooper, it was the beginning of a new chapter. He took a gap year, bet on himself, and attacked his recovery with the same intensity he brought to the pitch.He continued playing with Maryland United ECNL during his recovery and got recruited by the University of South Carolina's Division 1 program, where he has just completed his second year.While soccer remained central to his identity, lingering injury forced Cooper to take time away from sports and turn his focus toward new ambitions. Now, he is channeling his drive and discipline into the world of finance, where he has already began to make a name for himself. Cooper is applying the same relentless work ethic and leadership that once defined his athletic career to his pursuit of success in the financial world.For more on Cooper be sure to follow @cooperjohnston11*SEASON 6 of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast is brought to you by Isophit.

In this episode, I dig into a question that's always lurking in the back of a portrait photographer's mind – what really makes light flattering? It's a term we all use, but what does it actually mean? Is it just about soft shadows and low contrast, or is it more about the connection between the subject and the photographer? I talk through this while reflecting on a busy week – from a stunning wedding at Head Saw House to a corporate shoot for Barclays, and a spontaneous portrait session that reminded me why I love this job. I also share some thoughts on the updated Mastering Portrait Photography book, which hits shelves in September, complete with fresh images and a whole new chapter on AI post-production. If you've ever wondered what makes a light truly flattering – and why it's about more than just the gear – this episode is for you. And as always, wherever you are and whatever you're doing, be kind to yourself. Cheers P. If you enjoy this podcast, please head over to Mastering Portrait Photography, for more articles and videos about this beautiful industry. You can also read a full transcript of this episode.

Transcript Well, as I sit here in the studio, the sun is shining in through the windows and it's been a beautiful, beautiful week. I started it with a trip down to Devon with the in-laws. One great thing about being married to Sarah, whose family are from Plymouth, there are many great things about being married to Sarah. But one of the ones, in terms of geography, at least, is her family still lived down in Plymouth, in Devon, by the sea. So it was absolutely glorious to spend a couple of days down there walking the dog, drinking a beer, enjoying the sunshine, and the sun is still shining here right now. And on that happy note, I'm Paul. I'm very much looking forward to a barbecue, and this is the Mastering Portrait

Where do we stand on the Dr. Michael Brown investigation & reinstatement? Michael Miller shares a heartfelt response on Remnant Radio.In this episode, we address one of the more painful and controversial topics we've covered: the recent investigation into Dr. Michael Brown and his reinstatement by Mercy Culture Church in Fort Worth, Texas, under the leadership of Pastor Landon Schott. As one of the most visible figures in the charismatic and evangelical world, Dr. Brown's influence has shaped thousands—including us. But recent findings in the independent FireFly report have brought serious allegations of spiritual and emotional misconduct into the light.In this short but direct video, Michael Miller offers a heartfelt and honest response to the scandal, the investigation, and especially the decision by Mercy Culture Church to restore Dr. Brown to ministry with what many have called stunning speed and minimal accountability. What do we do when a leader we've admired is credibly accused? What does true mercy look like? And what should disqualify a pastor from ministry?We'll also examine the public statements made by both Landon Schott and the Line of Fire board, asking whether these responses reflect biblical integrity or institutional self-preservation. This episode is for anyone wrestling with the tension between grace and truth, restoration and responsibility.If you've ever listened to Michael Brown on Remnant Radio and wondered where we now stand, this is our answer.
What does freedom look like when you navigate the world on wheels? For Jenna Udenberg, it arrived in the form of a Firefly - an electric attachment that transformed her manual wheelchair into an adventure vehicle capable of tackling trails she'd only viewed longingly from afar.Diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis at age seven and using a wheelchair by eight, Jenna refused to let her mobility challenges define her life's boundaries. From becoming a left-handed trumpet player (despite being told it wasn't possible) to creating adaptive music programs that helped non-verbal students find their voice, her journey exemplifies resilience and creative problem-solving.The pandemic marked a turning point when Jenna left her 19-year teaching career and discovered a new calling as a disability advocate. Through her nonprofit "Above and Beyond With U," she champions the philosophy that true accessibility transcends mere ADA compliance checklists. As she powerfully states, "Nothing for us without us" - accessibility planning must include disabled voices from the very beginning.Our conversation explores how Jenna discovered newfound independence on Minnesota's state park trails, the transformative power of community support, and why her autobiography is titled "Within My Spokes." You'll gain fresh perspective on what adventure truly means and how accessibility benefits everyone.Whether you're disabled, know someone who is, or simply care about creating a more inclusive world, Jenna's insights will change how you think about accessibility in outdoor spaces. Listen now to hear more inspiring stories of people finding their own unique paths to adventure despite life's challenges.Visit LandPirate.com to get your gear that has you, the adventurer, in mind.

An interview with Professor Jochen Hartmann about the use of generative AI in marketing, specifically focusing on comparing AI-generated images to human-created ones. Hartmann discusses research involving various AI models like DALL-E-3, Midjourney, and Firefly, and the surprising findings about their performance in aesthetics, realism, and effectiveness in real-world ad campaigns. The conversation highlights the rapid development of AI in marketing and its potential to create "superhuman" imagery.
El debate alrededor de la inteligencia artificial se instala en las escuelas de diseño, animación y fotografía de París. De la productividad a la sensibilidad artística, la comunidad educativa busca respuestas y garantías en cuanto a las salidas profesionales. ChatGPT, Midjourney y Firefly son solo algunos de los muchos nombres comerciales de la inteligencia artificial generativa (IAG), una tecnología que se nutre de datos, textos e imágenes para entrenar sus algoritmos y, a su vez, producir nuevos contenidos escritos y audiovisuales. Aunque el origen de la IA generativa se remonta a varias décadas atrás, el desarrollo exponencial durante los últimos años explica el debate acerca de sus límites éticos, su impacto ecológico y la creciente preocupación por su falta de regulación. Y también sobre la banalización del arte y el trabajo creativo.“Es un insulto a la vía misma”, declaró Hayao Miyazaki, fundador del famoso estudio de animación Studio Ghibli, tras la ola de imágenes inspiradas en el estilo de sus películas creadas con inteligencia artificial. Una opinión compartida por un sector de los estudiantes que aspiran a trabajar en dicha industria.Foco en la propiedad intelectual“Es regurgitar un montón de imágenes hechas por artistas a los que no han pedido su consentimiento. No tiene sentido”, se queja Lianne, estudiante en cine de animación en la escuela de Gobelins París. "Es ilegal, no pagan por los derechos de autor, ¡es un robo!", añade su compañera Laura. Sin una delimitación clara, la cuestión de la autoría sigue siendo confusa.“Es algo cada vez más presente en nuestro día a día y creo que irá a más”, opina Louane, que también cursa cine de animación en Gobelins. Prefiere no pensar en la inteligencia artificial porque le produce cierto estrés, “pero es verdad que hay que tenerlo en cuenta”, admite. “Si hacemos una formación tan reconocida como ésta es para encontrar trabajo después. Si la IA nos lo quita, es estúpido hacerla”, concluye.El diseño gráfico, ¿en peligro?Difícil obviar la cuestión. Según el último Informe sobre el Futuro de los Empleos del Foro Económico Mundial, publicado en enero de 2025, la automatización que la IA trae consigo supondrá la destrucción de 92 millones de puestos de trabajo para 2030, mientras que creará otros 170 millones. Entre las profesiones con una rápida tendencia de declive, según este informe, está el diseño gráfico.“Una compañera de trabajo que no tenía estudios en este ámbito hizo un logo con ChatGPT y pensó que así ya podría ser grafista. Me lo dijo como si mi trabajo fuese un fraude", cuenta Axelle, estudiante de la escuela de diseño LISAA.Útil para ganar tiempoPero la IA no es perfecta. Como cualquier otra herramienta, para los que se sirven de ella como tal, es necesario utilizarla correctamente para obtener los resultados deseados. "Te hace ganar mucho tiempo, pero hay que saber hacer un prompt (la orden que se le da a la IA para que responda con un texto, imagen o vídeo, NDLR) y seleccionar las imágenes correctas. Siempre hará falta un director artístico que la supervise”, asegura Noémie, también de la escuela LISAA. “Tengo un bagaje suficiente como para poder encontrar un empleo. No puedes no usarla solo por tener miedo a que te quite el trabajo."Algunos la usan porque la ven como una herramienta, otros la rechazan por motivos éticos o ecológicos, pero el debate alrededor de la inteligencia artificial roza incluso lo filosófico. "Mientras no tengas demasiado apego a las herramientas y mantengas tu independencia y tus ideas, me parece bien", dice Tony, alumno de diseño gráfico y animación en la escuela ECV, aventurándose a hacer el paralelismo con la película “Her” (Spike Jonze, 2013), donde el personaje interpretado por Joaquín Phoenix se enamora de una inteligencia artificial.“En la escuela usamos la IA para generar storyboards que luego convertimos en secuencias de video.”. Para él, la utilidad está en la fase de preproducción de los proyectos, donde asegura que le permite avanzar mucho más rápido.Priorizar la creatividad y la sensibilidadEl grado de permisión e incorporación de la IAG en los programas educativos depende de cada escuela, de cada departamento y de cada docente. “Nosotros incorporamos la IA desde el primer año de la formación. Los alumnos aprenden técnicas de fotografía analógica y digital, pero también el tratamiento de sus fotos con inteligencia artificial”, explica Yann Philippe, enseñante de fotografía y vídeo en Gobelins."No sentimos que nuestro trabajo esté directamente amenazado por la IA y creemos que, con un buen uso e inteligencia, puede potenciar la creatividad de algunos alumnos”. Son sorprendentemente los que ingresan con amplios conocimientos de IA generativa los menos interesados en trabajar con ella y más con el formato analógico y los procesos tradicionales, a diferencia de quienes no la han utilizado aún. “De todas formas, las herramientas avanzan a tal velocidad que cuando terminamos de preparar los cursos, ya están obsoletas."“Hice el curso de Midjourney de Gobelins, pero me interesa más la autenticidad”, confiesa Axel, alumno de fotografía, con su cámara Leica analógica colgada del hombro. “Con IA o sin IA, lo importante es la motivación y la sensibilidad que cada artista pone en sus proyectos.” Este precisamente lo que Yann Philippe busca desarrollar porque considera que “es ahí donde está su valor añadido”.La inteligencia artificial generativa avanza más rápido que el ritmo al que se da respuesta a las dudas y preguntas que ésta plantea, y se exige un marco normativo a la altura de los retos que conlleva. La Ley de Inteligencia Artificial de la Unión Europea, en vigor desde el 1 de agosto de 2024, es un primer paso, pero no parece suficiente. En el ámbito educativo, la UNESCO ha realizado una llamada urgente a los gobiernos de todo el mundo para que la regulen de manera eficaz.
Send us a textIn this unapologetically chaotic daily drop, Jared rolls through everything from drones dropping grenades to pedos in court and AI that's apparently too complex for senior leadership to Google. Welcome to the April 30th edition of the Ones Ready podcast—where we break down the actual DoD news that gets sent to generals...and then we make fun of it.From failed Firefly launches to tribal warfare over F-15EX seating arrangements, this episode is basically the Pentagon's group chat with better commentary. Also, find out which documentary produced by the Obamas might make you respect the Thunderbirds (but probably won't), and why the “Women, Peace, and Security” program was killed for being “woke,” even though it came from the Trump administration. Yeah, we're confused too.Stick around for:A take on why AI still scares generals more than enlisted TikToksA borderline unhinged breakdown of why drone swarms are everyone's problemWhether dropping 500lb bombs equals dead livestock in Houthi press releasesThoughts on Thunderbirds, martial law, and why fake rifles in basic are weak sauceAnd yes—don't forget to like, subscribe, comment, check out 18AlphaFitness, and hit up the Ones Ready merch store. This podcast is for operators, future operators, and the people wondering why military budgeting is run like a reality show.

I love when people reach out to ask to be guests. Especially someone that puts the fan in fandom. Katie of Fandemonium Design joins me to talk about some of her favorite fandoms, plus her Fandom art and design work! Katie says that her fandoms find her. As we talk about the different fandoms, you'll hear how these fandoms found Katie, and why she latched onto them. The first one we talk about is Dr. Who. Katie talks about how she first stumbled into Dr. Who and what kept her watching. We talk about her favorite doctors, her favorite episodes, and why she keeps coming back to this fandom. Next, we talk about Avatar: The Last Airbender. We talk about how we were both drawn to the show and how it continues to be the gift that keeps on giving with future works. Katie talks her favorite characters, what kind of bender she'd be, and more. Then, we're off to the 'Verse. Katie and I talk about the beautiful ship Serenity, and the Firefly TV series. Katie's entrance into the world of Firefly came a lot differently than some people, and its a fun story to hear. We talk about characters that she likes, some of the stories she enjoyed, and the 'verse itself. Lastly, we're talking about her work with her business, Fandemonium Design. Katie talks about how she started off with her art and how its evolved over time. We talk about some of the fandoms she's drawn, how she comes up with her designs, and what she has planned for the future. Be sure to check out her work and if you're interested, she does take commissions!

Was anyone asking for the Firefly Family to get a happy ending? Or is the entire Firefly Trilogy a wicked exercise in extreme button-pushing?
