    Dr. Karen Litzy speaks with Dr. Osman Ahmed about how concussion care has evolved for paraathletes, why standard tools often fall short, and what the new ParaScat 6 tools aim to fix. They also discuss the Concussion in Parasport Group, the importance of athlete input in research, and why clinicians should think differently about baseline function in athletes with impairments. Key Topics ·       In this episode, Dr. Osman Ahmed explains what paraathletes are and why the term matters when discussing concussion care. ·       We discuss why paraathletes were historically left out of concussion research and how that gap reflected broader patterns in sports medicine. ·       Osman breaks down why standard tools like the SCAT can be difficult to apply to athletes with amputations, visual impairments, spinal cord injuries, or wheelchair use. ·       He shares how baseline symptoms such as blurred vision, headaches, or light sensitivity can be normal for some paraathletes and should not be assumed to indicate concussion without context. ·       We talk about the creation of the Concussion in Parasport Group and the first position statement that helped guide clinicians on assessment, management, and return to play. ·       Osman describes how the position statement used a practical color coding approach for tests: o   green for appropriate o   yellow for use with caution or modification o   red for not appropriate ·       We discuss the research and clinical gaps that led to the development of ParaScat 6 tools for wheelchair users and athletes with visual impairment. ·       Osman shares how athlete lived experience shaped the design, testing, and refinement of the new tools in real time. ·       He explains why the biggest shift for clinicians is to think carefully about baselines before doing post injury concussion assessments. ·       Osman also previews his presentation at the Sixth World Congress of Sports Physiotherapy in Bern and encourages clinicians to engage with paraathletes humbly and proactively.

    Tosh & George, GNT Travel Pros, George's 70th Birthday Trip: Paris, Barcelona, then Embark Azamara Onward for a 9-day Med Cruise, then Rome-Part 1

    Send us Fan MailHello, passionate cruisers! This is Paul. I am delighted to welcome this week on The Joy of Cruising Podcast, Tosh Junior and George Hodges, owners of GNT Travel Pros, a Dream Vacations franchise, where they work full-time as travel advisors. During their very busy stint as relatively new travel advisors—they went through TA training in the same class as Cheryl, Shornay, and me in late-2024—they took the time to celebrate George's 70th birthday with a spectacular combination land and sea vacation so grand I had to invite my colleagues on The Joy of Cruising Podcast to talk about it. Tosh spent 30 years as a corporate IT executive, traveling the world for GE, Citrix, Atlassian, and McDonald's Corporation, among others. A Chicago native and University of Illinois graduate, he's called Fort Lauderdale home for the past 13 years. His credentials read like an operations manual — PMP, ITIL, ISO, Certified ScrumMaster, LEAN Six Sigma Black Belt, and an MBA — and he's since added a Certified Travel Advisor designation and ACC accreditation with CLIA. The through-line between the two careers is the same: complex logistics, handled so completely that the person on the receiving end never has to think about them. 30 years of leading teams also taught him the part no certification covers, which is that the job is service. George, Tosh's partner, brings the other half of the equation. After 30 years in interior design and sales at Crate & Barrel, he retired with an eye for how a space is supposed to feel and a career's worth of practice reading what people want before they've said it out loud.  They don't plan trips from a desk. In the past year alone, they've sailed more than 15 cruises across nearly every major line — Icon of the Seas, Celebrity Ascent and Apex, Norwegian Luna, Star Princess, MSC World America, Carnival Celebration, Virgin's Scarlet Lady, and an Azamara sailing through the Mediterranean, to name a few. On land, they've covered the map: London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, Budapest, Madrid, Barcelona, Rome, Venice, Tuscany, and the Amalfi Coast in Europe; Tokyo, Seoul, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Delhi, and Dubai in Asia and the Gulf; Sydney, Rio, São Paulo, and much of Canada beyond that. That's the differentiator. When they recommend a ship, a port, a neighborhood, or a restaurant, it's because they've stood in it — whether the trip is budget or luxury, a couple or a full group. They have a particular soft spot for planning group travel, but they'll book anything, large or small.Do you have a dream car?

    President Trump heeft boos gereageerd op de uitlatingen van enkele belangrijke CEO’s uit Silicon Valley. De bazen van onder meer OpenAI en Anthropic vinden dat het tijd is voor een rem op de ontwikkeling van AI. Die gaat namelijk te snel, vindt ook Elon Musk. Maar Trump wil daar niets van weten. Volgens Trump moet er juist versneld worden. Overal moeten datacenters gebouwd worden om in de energiebehoefte voor AI te voorzien. Het is namelijk een strijd met China. En wie die wint, wint helemaal, zegt Trump. Maar onder kiezers neemt de weerstand tegen die datacenters toe. De CEO’s waren niet de enigen die Trumps boosheid te verduren kregen. Hij haalde uit naar het Hooggerechtshof nadat een nieuwe wet over poststemmen opnieuw is tegengehouden. ‘Zijn dit de mensen die ik heb benoemd’, riep Trump uit. En dan was er nog het Kennedy Center waar opnieuw niet Trumps naam op mag, en dus heeft het centrum zijn deuren maar helemaal gesloten. Over de Amerika Podcast In de Amerika Podcast nemen Bernard Hammelburg en Jan Postma je mee naar het Amerika van nu: een land dat onder Donald Trump opnieuw in rap tempo verandert. Wat betekent zijn beleid voor Amerikanen in rode én blauwe staten, voor de democratie? Wat is er nog over van the American Dream? Wat verandert Trumps koers voor ons in Europa? Hier hoor je de verhalen van de Amerikanen zelf. We nemen je mee naar het land van adembenemende landschappen, countrymuziek uit de autoradio en diners langs de highway. Maar natuurlijk ook juist naar de mavericks die deze clichés doorbreken. De Amerika Podcast zoekt naar de ziel van Amerika. Buitenlandcommentator Bernard Hammelburg vanuit New York en Amsterdam, correspondent Jan Postma vanuit Washington DC of ergens in een van de vijftig staten. Die zoektocht doen we samen met jou, want de Amerika Podcast is niet compleet zonder de vragen van onze luisteraars. Elke donderdag in je podcastfeed! Heb je een vraag, opmerking, kritiek of een compliment. Mail dan naar dewereld@bnr.nl of spreek je vraag in op de Amerika Podcast Whatsapp: 06-28135020. En wie weet win je de Amerika Podcast koffiebeker. Over de makers Bernard Hammelburg is buitenlandcommentator en columnist voor BNR Nieuwsradio en het FD, en presentator van BNR De Wereld. Als oorlogsverslaggever was hij o.a. ooggetuige van de Culturele Revolutie in China, de revolutie in Iran en de oorlogen in Vietnam, het Midden-Oosten en Afghanistan. Hij was twintig jaar correspondent in de VS. Hij verdeelt zijn tijd tussen zijn woonplaatsen Amsterdam en New York. Jan Postma is Amerika-correspondent voor BNR Nieuwsradio. Vanuit zijn standplaats Washington DC doet hij verslag van de politieke strijd in de hoofdstad en gaat het land in om te zien wat de gevolgen zijn voor Amerikanen. Eerder schreef hij De Trump-fluisteraars, over de mensen die Trump beïnvloeden. Voordat hij in 2018 correspondent werd, presenteerde hij onder meer Boekestijn en De Wijk. Jan studeerde Amerikanistiek en Journalistiek aan de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. Naast de BNR Amerika Podcast is hij regelmatig te horen in BNR’s nieuwsprogramma’s en in BNR De Wereld. Ook is hij Amerika-correspondent voor het Algemeen Dagblad. Redactie Michaël Roele Montage Jeanne Heeremans See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Welcome to this extra episode of the Leaders in Finance Podcast, recorded live after the third Leaders in Finance Compliance Event at the H'ART Museum in Amsterdam, where over 100 participants from more than 50 organisations came together to discuss the future of compliance in financial services, with a particular focus on AI, technology and crypto. Host Kees de Wit reflects on the day's key themes together with Leanne Joseph (moderator of the event), Tom van de Laar (Head of Financial Crime Compliance & Deputy Chief Compliance Officer, Rabobank), and Pieter van Doorn (Partner, Deloitte). Together, they discuss how rapidly developing technologies are changing the compliance profession, whether AI could eventually replace parts of the compliance function, and why human judgement will remain essential. They also reflect on the rise of crypto and neobanks, the impact of regulation such as MiCAR, and the continuing tension between innovation and effective oversight. And looking ahead: how can financial institutions, regulators and other public and private parties work together more effectively, build trust and respond with greater urgency to a rapidly changing financial landscape? A big thank you to all speakers, participants and our event partners for making this another inspiring edition of the Leaders in Finance Compliance Event.

    Hoeveel invloed heeft de plek waar je wieg staat op hoe je naar jezelf kijkt? Eddie Brummelman (Universiteit van Amsterdam) onderzoekt in zijn project Generatie Hoop hoe opgroeien in armoede of rijkdom het zelfbeeld van kinderen vormt. Want wie minder kansen krijgt, kan zichzelf ook als minder slim of talentvol gaan zien. In deze aflevering vertelt Eddie hoe kinderen ongelijkheid al vroeg leren herkennen, hoe ze daar stereotypes aan gaan verbinden, en hoe die uiteindelijk kunnen doorwerken in hun eigen zelfbeeld. Maar óók hoe het anders kan: door kinderen op een andere manier te leren kijken naar ongelijkheid, kunnen we ervoor zorgen dat ieder kind zijn talenten gaat erkennen.

At the heart of the conversation is Spinoza's controversial conception of God: was he an atheist, a pantheist, or something else entirely?Sachs and Nadler examine Spinoza's rejection of a personal and providential God, his belief in understanding nature through reason and science, and his vision of morality grounded not in divine reward or punishment, but in virtue, freedom, and human flourishing.The conversation also explores Spinoza's connections to Aristotle and Epicurus, his lasting influence on modern thought, and Albert Einstein's famous admiration for “Spinoza's God.”The Book Club with Jeffrey Sachs is brought to you by the SDG Academy, the flagship education initiative of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

    Vorige aflevering nam ik je mee in vijf inzichten van Tony Robbins' seminar Unleash the Power Within. Op veel vraag komt er nu een deel twee, want er is één inzicht dat ik nog dieper wil uitpakken: patroonherkenning.In deze aflevering zoom ik in op twee patronen die ik bij mezelf herken, en die ik ook heel vaak terugzie bij de fotografen met wie ik werk. Het eerste gaat over controle en veiligheid, en hoe ik weerstand opbouw nog voordat ik iets heb kunnen voelen. Het tweede gaat over hoe moeilijk ik het vind om iets echt af te sluiten voor ik aan iets nieuws begin, van een tentoonstelling tot een shoot tot een seizoen van mijn leven.Patronen zijn niet altijd groot, maar als je ze gaat herkennen en omdraaien, kunnen ze wel grote gevolgen hebben. Voor je leven, je business en je fotografie. Wat je leert in deze afleveringWaarom patroonherkenning volgens Tony Robbins de basis is van elke grote transformatie, en hoe dat net zo goed geldt voor je fotopraktijk als voor je levenHoe Kaat haar eigen patroon van controle en een grote nood aan veiligheid herkent, en hoe ze leerde om eerst te voelen en pas dan te oordelenWaarom Kaat het zo moeilijk vindt om iets echt af te sluiten voor ze aan iets nieuws begint, van een tentoonstelling tot een afscheid tot een nieuw seizoen van showsHoe je als fotograaf een moment inbouwt om een project of shoot bewust af te sluiten, en waarom dat zich terugvertaalt in je foto'sWaarom kleine patronen soms de grootste gevolgen hebben zodra je ze gaat herkennen en omdraaienGratis webinar, vijf patronen van topfotografenWelke patronen komen steeds terug bij succesvolle fotografen?

    Philippe Hertzberg has never bought an advertisement aimed at a traveler.Hertzberg is the CEO of Secret Journeys, a company that designs private access experiences inside landmarks like Notre Dame and the Arc de Triomphe. Most tour businesses expand their bookable services to capture more revenue per client. Hertzberg does the opposite: Secret Journeys turns away hotel, ground transport, and flight bookings, even when clients ask for them, to stay a single, uncategorizable thing. Most tour businesses also try to reach travelers directly. Hertzberg doesn't advertise to travelers at all. He sells exclusively through travel advisors, and a single pitch to Virtuoso's CEO in 2022 put him in front of that network's 20,000 advisors.Three other decisions run the same direction. Hertzberg turns down press coverage that would put Secret Journeys in front of the traveling public, free exposure most businesses would take, because he wants the advisor, not his own company, to stay the one the client trusts. He casts storytellers the way Disney casts characters, and the trait he's actually hiring for is curiosity about the guest, not guiding credentials or destination expertise. Landmark access gets negotiated the same patient way: opening the Arc de Triomphe at night took two years of solving the administrator's actual objections one at a time, including agreeing to cover security staff's cab fare home. The episode also covers how a storyteller turned a five-year-old's obsession with bells into a private treasure hunt through the towers of Notre Dame, and which cities, Amsterdam, Seoul, and Prague among them, Hertzberg is looking to expand into next.Resources:Secret Journeys: secretjourneys.travelPhilippe Hertzberg on LinkedIn

Want aan de westkust, aan een belangrijke zeestraat, ligt de strategisch interessante havenstad Mokka. Eind vorige week namen de Houthi's deze belangrijke stad in, en dat is de grootste verschuiving van de frontlinie in de 4 jaar sinds het staakt-het-vuren werd gesloten. Waarom gebeurt dit nu?

    Artists Dru Donovan and Jon Rubin join PhotoWork with Sasha Wolf to share their memories of legendary photographer, artist, and teacher Larry Sultan and discuss the release of Water Over Thunder: Selected Writings (MACK), the first publication devoted to Sultan's wide-ranging use of writing as a personal, artistic, and pedagogical tool, illustrated throughout with previously unseen materials from his archive. Former students, assistants, and friends of Sultan, Donovan and Rubin share personal stories about his approach to photography, teaching, and mentorship, while reflecting on his lasting influence and the privilege of collaborating with his family on this book. Dru Donovan Dru Donovan works with both photography and video to examine the connection between physical and emotional occurrences by constructing or revisiting human experiences. Donovan's work has shown nationally and internationally and was included in reGeneration2: Tomorrow's Photographers Today at the Musée de l'Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland, and in the 2010 California Biennial at the Orange County Museum of Art, Fraenkel Gallery, Yancey Richardson Gallery, Williamson Knight Gallery and Philadelphia Photo Arts Center. Donovan's photographs were published in Aperture Magazine, Blind Spot, Picture Magazine and Matte Magazine. In 2011 TBW Books published her first book, Lifting Water. In 2011-2012 she participated in the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council's Workspace studio residency. Awards Donovan has received are the John Gutmann Photography Fellowship in 2015 and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship in 2016. https://drudonovan.com Jon Rubin  Jon Rubin is an interdisciplinary artist who creates collaborative interventions into public life that re-imagine individual, group, and institutional behavior. His socially engaged projects include running a barter-based nomadic art school, founding a national museum, operating a restaurant that produces a live talk show with its customers, and co-directing another that only serves cuisine from countries with which the United States is in conflict. In 2019, with the support from Creative Capital, Rubin built an exact replica of his friend Sohrab Kashani's Tehran apartment so they both could live and work together in a parallel universe that bypassed the Trump travel ban. Rubin has exhibited at the Shanghai Biennial; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Mercosul Biennial; the Carnegie International; The Lyon Biennale; The Museum of Contemporary Art, Denver; The Museo Tamayo Arte Contemporaneo, Mexico; The Rooseum, Sweden; as well as in backyards, living rooms, and street corners. In 2017 the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum commissioned a major new work by Rubin and collaborator Lenka Clayton, entitled A talking parrot, a high school drama class, a Punjabi TV show, the oldest song in the world, a museum artwork, and a congregation's call to action circle through New York. With the participation of six diverse venues around New York City, the artists arranged for an essential element from each site—referenced in the project's title—to circulate from one place to the next, creating a six-month network of social and material exchange.  His work has been reported on internationally by outlets including The New York Times, The Associated Press, Art in America, Artforum, The Boston Globe, La Repubblica, Al Jazeera, BBC World News, and NPR's All Things Considered. Conflict Kitchen, Rubin's collaborative seven-year work with artist Dawn Weleski, was named as one of the 100 Artworks that “Defined the Decade” by Artnet News. Rubin is a Professor in the School of Art at Carnegie Mellon University. In 2016 he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from the Columbus College of Art and Design. https://www.jonrubin.net Larry Sultan Larry Sultan (American photographer, b. Brooklyn, NY, 1946; d. Greenbrae, CA, 2009) was raised in California's San Fernando Valley. His work, heavily influenced by the post-war popular culture of Los Angeles, plays with notions of documentary and staged photography and reveals the psychological nuances found in the everyday suburban landscape and family life. Acclaimed for his use of color and light, Sultan is also known for uniquely collapsing the distance between himself and his subject. His series include Swimmers (1978-82), Pictures from Home (1983-92), The Valley (2004) and Homeland (2006-2009). Sultan co-authored the ground-breaking work, Evidence (1977) with Mike Mandel. A beloved and highly influential educator, Sultan taught at the San Francisco Art Institute from 1978 to 1988 and served as a Distinguished Professor of Photography at California College of the Arts, San Francisco, from 1989 to 2009. Sultan's work has been widely published, exhibited, and collected worldwide including Tate Modern, London; The National Gallery, London; Stedejik Museum, Amsterdam; Musée de l'Elysée, Lausanne; Centre Pompidou, Paris; The National Gallery of Art, Washington DC; Museum of Modern Art, NY; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, NY; Whitney Museum of American Art, NY; the Solomon Guggenheim Museum, NY; Los Angeles County San Francisco Museum of Art, CA; Art Institute of Chicago, IL. Sultan was the recipient of numerous awards, including a Guggenheim Fellowship, US Department of International Arts and Lectures Grant, National Endowment for the Arts Photography Fellowship. Sultan's project Pictures from Home was developed for the stage and premiered on Broadway in 2023. https://www.larrysultan.com

Mike walks through his journey from playing Nom in Barcelona to the Super Progressive Boat Party at Balance Croatia, Loveland in Amsterdam, and closing out in Manchester with Jamie Stevens [3:48], sharing what it means to go full-time with music and why face-to-face connections in this scene are worth their weight in gold.The conversation goes deep into Mike's distinctly groove-driven DJ style, a constant, elastic tension that layers tracks and builds dance floors without relying on long breakdowns [12:13], and how years of experience have sharpened his instincts behind the decks [10:04]. He opens up about the influences that shape his sound, from 90s hip-hop vocal samples and Dub Techno to Depeche Mode to Eric Prydz, whose technical mastery and independent spirit Mike credits as a defining inspiration [27:40].Mike also pulls back the curtain on Tornn Records, his independent label where there are no promo campaigns, no guest lists, and no release schedules forced by outside pressure [42:35]. He explains why the music should speak for itself, why follower counts mean nothing to him when evaluating demos [37:12], and why underground music was never meant to be force-fed to an audience [38:09].Rounding out the episode, Mike previews an exciting slate of upcoming shows including Sri Lanka, South America, and beyond [53:56], and the gang shares their thoughts on Balance versus ADE and why the progressive scene's tight-knit community -- especially out of Melbourne -- continues to punch far above its weight [49:32].

    When Charlotte Meerstadt put solar on her Amsterdam home, the numbers made sense.Then Charlotte moved to the U.S. and rented out the apartment. The solar panels kept doing exactly what they were supposed to do: producing cheap, clean power. But, while the tenant received the lower utility bill, Charlotte still owned the panels and had no clear way to capture the savings her asset was creating.That mismatch revealed a bigger problem hiding across rental housing and distributed energy: the person who can invest in clean energy is often not the same person who gets the financial benefit.Under 1% of rental rooftops have solar.Now put that next to 49 million rental units in the U.S., including roughly 23 million apartments, and you start to see the size of the opportunity Charlotte Meerstadt stumbled into.In this episode, Charlotte, Founder and CEO of Fram Energy, joins Nico to explain how she turned that insight into a company helping property owners, developers, and energy asset owners measure, bill, and collect the value their projects produce.She also shares how early customer conversations shaped the product, why real-world complexity can become a moat, and what she had to unlearn as an engineer to become a founder.Expect to learn:

    Dallas was deze week het toneel van het Amerikaanse politieke circus: de Republikeinen kwamen daar bijeen voor een unicum: een midterm convention. Een partijraad, dus. In Dallas, Texas, draaide het om één man: Donald Trump, terwijl hij op geen enkele kieslijst staat. Het zijn immers parlementsverkiezingen. Maar levert zo’n spektakel ook stemmen op? Met de midterms voor de deur is de grote vraag hoe sterk de Republikeinse partij nog staat – en of Trump zijn partij een nieuwe verkiezingsoverwinning kan bezorgen. Daarnaast aandacht voor een dag die Amerika en de wereld voorgoed veranderde: 11 september 2001, deze week 25 jaar geleden. David Hammelburg ging die dag in New York onmiddellijk in het rampgebied filmen, en blikt samen met Bernard terug op de gebeurtenissen, de enorme schok en de gevolgen die vandaag nog altijd merkbaar zijn. Op welke manier heeft 9/11 zijn poren nagelaten in de Amerikaanse samenleving? Over de Amerika Podcast In de Amerika Podcast nemen Bernard Hammelburg en Jan Postma je mee naar het Amerika van nu: een land dat onder Donald Trump opnieuw in rap tempo verandert. Wat betekent zijn beleid voor Amerikanen in rode én blauwe staten, voor de democratie? Wat is er nog over van the American Dream? Wat verandert Trumps koers voor ons in Europa? Hier hoor je de verhalen van de Amerikanen zelf. We nemen je mee naar het land van adembenemende landschappen, countrymuziek uit de autoradio en diners langs de highway. Maar natuurlijk ook juist naar de mavericks die deze clichés doorbreken. De Amerika Podcast zoekt naar de ziel van Amerika. Buitenlandcommentator Bernard Hammelburg vanuit New York en Amsterdam, correspondent Jan Postma vanuit Washington DC of ergens in een van de vijftig staten.

    Staying Grounded Through a Super Busy SeasonChristine reflects on an unusually busy few months that included family vacations to Paris, London, and Amsterdam; adjusting to a new work role with coaching; submitting a 100+ page grant; launching her middle grade novel Love Language; playing her first tennis doubles tournament; and teaching her second child to drive. She shares that while she still dislikes the “just get through today” mindset, she is glad she didn't sacrifice self-care and hobbies as she has in past busy seasons, recognizing she is more than her career and family roles and that her other identities deserve attention. She notes that honoring multiple identities takes time and can increase burnout risk, but coaching has helped her streamline by asking whether a task is part of her role and, if so, what the goal is. She also mentions giving herself grace, including missing an episode, and previews continued discussions on identity, ability, coaching, and more.00:00 Summer Busy Season01:00 Investing in Yourself01:12 Identity Beyond Roles01:39 Two Coaching Questions02:04 Hobbies and Grace02:19 Looking Ahead

Does anyone outside the music scene actually care if a concert flyer was created with AI? Is it hurting graphic designers—or simply giving artists another tool to tell their story?Kevin, Brad, and producer Devin tackle the debate from every angle, discussing creativity, originality, prompt engineering, licensing, corporate branding, the environmental impact of AI, and where they believe the technology fits into the future of music and marketing.To close out the episode, the crew reviews Fox Maple's brand-new single, "Last of the Lost," breaking down its haunting atmosphere, powerful songwriting, dynamic arrangement, and answering the show's signature question:Is it the Riff... or the Rhythm... that makes the song?So pour yourself a drink, settle in, and enjoy another episode of Riffs & Rhythms—where the conversations are as memorable as the music.

    Lesley Stahl visits Fred Miller and his family in the large house in southern Virginia that they bought to host family gatherings, only to discover that their own ancestors had once been enslaved on that very property. Miller's sister and cousins scoured historical records and enlisted a genealogist, who found evidence that their great-great-grandparents, Violet and David Miller, were enslaved on the plantation, then called Sharswood. The dilapidated building still standing behind the main house has been identified by archeologists as living quarters for some of the enslaved men and women on the plantation. Buying this home opened a window into the Miller family's past that they had never discussed, and that many African American families struggle to obtain. This is a double-length segment. Shari Finkelstein is the producer. If you think America's top laugh factories are only in New York, Chicago, and LA, think again. Reporting from Amsterdam, correspondent Jon Wertheim takes us inside Boom Chicago, an English-language improv theater founded in the early '90s by two American comics. What sounded like a punchline became a pipeline, launching future stars like Seth Meyers, Jordan Peele, Amber Ruffin, Brendan Hunt and Jason Sudeikis. At a moment when American comedy feels under siege, this beloved Dutch theater keeps proving that funny survives—and travels. Michael Gavshon is the producer.

    Now it's your turn to share. A bonus episode to end our Love Stories series where you tell the world how your true love grew. Fiona Smiley Wright got in touch about an extraordinary romance that was hiding right under her nose for most of her life, growing up in Northern Ireland. It wasn't until her parents passed away that Fiona and her three brothers discovered years of love letters between them, while separated by war. Fiona tells Asya the tale of a silver cigarette box that her mother Elizabeth gifted to her father Tom, a surgeon, before he departed for Singapore during World War Two, and how it was crucial in ensuring their love survived. In the summer of 1983, Hana Keplova, a talented singer studying at Prague University, stayed in a family home in England en route to taking part in a choral festival. Over breakfast she meets Andrew Johnston, the twinkly-eyed son of her host family. The two became pen pals and Andrew made a surprise visit to the then-communist state of Czechoslovakia, and kept on coming back. After encounters with secret police and heated debates on long walks in the countryside, the pair slowly fell in love. They married in 1989, the same year the Iron Curtain fell. Hana and Andrew now reflect on their love story together. Dutch maths teachers Bart Zevenhek and Nieky Liesker were both single and disillusioned with love. But on Valentine's Day in 2000, a practical joke set up by their students planted a seed that blossomed into romance. They join us from their forest house in Amsterdam to recount the tale.Soulmates Karo Caran and Victor Tsaran grew up in neighbouring countries, Poland and Ukraine. It wasn't their shared border that brought them together, but their individual hopes of learning how to use a computer. They tell Asya how, in the mid-90s, they met and fell in love on a year-long computer course for blind and visually-impaired students in the US. After returning to their respective homes and posting audio letters on floppy disks to each other, they moved to America together. They've worked at NGOs supporting computer education for blind people and today live and work in the heart of Silicon Valley.Presenter: Asya Fouks Producer: Elena Angelides, Edgar Maddicott and Vibeke Venema Got a story to tell?

    AfD-winst bedreigt Oekraïnesteun | Oekraïne voert droneaanvallen op | Witkoff en Kushner spreken Poetin en Zelensky Oekraïne voert de droneoorlog tegen Rusland op met aanvallen op raffinaderijen, vliegvelden en doelen op de Krim, terwijl Moskou inzet op escalatie en capitulatie-eisen. Arend Jan Boekestijn en Rob de Wijk duiden hoe Oekraïense corruptieschandalen de wapenleveranties ondermijnen en argwaan wekken bij EU-lidstaten, terwijl Poetin blijft geloven in minimale terreinwinst en maximale druk. De mysterieuze missie van Witkoff en Kushner tussen Moskou en Kyiv schuift een pro-Russisch onderhandelingskader naar voren, waarin Oekraïense concessies centraal staan. Duitsland schuift naar de randen van het politieke spectrum na een forse verkiezingsoverwinning van AfD in Saksen-Anhalt, waar economisch onbehagen, Ruslandbeeld en migratieangst samenkomen. De presentatoren bespreken hoe middenpartijen in Berlijn en andere Europese hoofdsteden hun koers bijstellen op het gebied van migratie, energie en defensie, terwijl de vraag blijft of de steun aan Oekraïne standhoudt. In het Midden-Oosten raken Iran en de Verenigde Staten verwikkeld in een escalatie rond de Straat van Hormuz, met raket- en droneaanvallen op tankers en een snel oplopende olieprijs tot gevolg. De Amerikaanse greep op Venezolaanse olie, de zoektocht van Europa naar Noorse energie en toenemende Amerikaanse kritiek op Israëlische kolonisten schetsen een energie- en veiligheidsorde in beweging, waarin kleine verschuivingen grote gevolgen kunnen hebben.

    Supersized techno, from the Vault Sessions darling. If you're part of the post-2020 cohort of techno heads, odds are you've heard of Grace Dahl. The Amsterdam native has become ubiquitous the past few years, via her DJing, productions and her label, Serial Disc Touchers. Her techno is energetic, embracing and big without sacrificing complexity or detail. In 2024, her Boiler Room set went viral, leading to bookings at Awakenings and Berghain. This wasn't overnight, though: born in Hungary to seasoned ravers, Dahl started playing out at 18 and landed a residency at Vault Sessions soon after. Serial Disc Touchers, Vol. 1, a collaborative EP with Alec Dienarr, moves from ropey tech house to peaktime anthems and after hours acid, held together by her balance of floor functionality and emotional finesse. Dahl brings the same MO to her RA Mix. Starting with a melancholic selection of dubbed-out techno, she waits until the 20-minute mark to get things funky. From there, RA.1055 is all party: bleep techno ready for a carnival, outrageous 303 work and a hint of vintage UK rave, with a tracklist spanning VNTM and Villa to Luke Slater, Underworld and Ian Axide. Big-room techno done right—careful and considerate in selection but ready to blast your boots off. Find the tracklist and Q&A at ra.co/podcast/1074 @gracedahl @vault-sessions-collective

He hopes to record a couple of shows from his dad’s old studio while he is there, including a special episode planned for Tuesday. He also points listeners to a fresh site redesign that trades the old techie look for something cleaner and friendlier. The featured segment starts from a wrap-up post on Arm’s newsroom. However, Cochrane broadens it to cover the whole conference rather than a single article. Hot Chips has run every August since 1989, and this year’s event was the 38th, held August 23rd through the 25th at Stanford’s Memorial Auditorium. What Hot Chips Actually Is Cochrane draws a line between Hot Chips and the big consumer trade shows. CES and Computex exist for product announcements and marketing. Meanwhile, Hot Chips is an IEEE engineering conference where chip architects present block diagrams and die photos for thirty minutes at a stretch. The audience matters as much as the content. Roughly five hundred people who design chips for a living fill the room, and they would spot a fudged number immediately. No written paper is required, just the talk and the slides. In-person tickets sold out this year, as did Stanford’s dorm housing. Cochrane says he plans to cover the conference annually going forward. IBM Built a Mainframe Core That Speaks Arm The disclosure that stopped Cochrane cold came from IBM. Its next processor for IBM Z and LinuxONE runs two completely different instruction sets natively, on every one of its eleven cores. Those are z/Architecture, IBM’s own mainframe language, and AArch64, which is 64-bit Arm. Crucially, this is not emulation. Nor is it Arm cores glued onto the die beside the mainframe cores. IBM built 2,792 Arm instructions directly into the hardware, which it says is more than double the mainframe instruction count. Each core carries two separate decoders while sharing the caches, branch predictor and register files downstream. It switches between the two in nanoseconds. IBM even added dedicated hardware to flip byte order, because Arm and the mainframe store numbers in opposite directions. The payoff is Arm SystemReady compliance, meaning off-the-shelf Arm Linux runs on a mainframe unmodified. Patrick Kennedy of ServeTheHome, who was in the room, wrote: “I am sitting here still in awe of what IBM is doing here; this is not Z plus Arm cores, this is Z and Arm in one core.” Cochrane flags one precision point that is easy to get backward. IBM did not license Arm’s core designs and drop them in. Instead, it took its own mainframe core and taught it AArch64 under an architecture license, which is considerably harder engineering. The specifications are striking. The chip uses a 2nm process, with eleven cores running above 5.7GHz sustained and no turbo mode at all. Each core gets 36MB of L2 cache, backed by a 3.5GB virtual L4 pool. Furthermore, the reliability target is eight nines, which works out to roughly three tenths of one second of unplanned downtime per year. IBM gave it no name and no ship date, though the press expects “Telum III” around 2028. Arm, Fujitsu and NVIDIA Show Their Hands Arm itself had plenty to discuss, starting with an unfortunate name. Its first chip in thirty-five years is called the AGI CPU, which is a product name rather than any claim about artificial general intelligence. For three and a half decades, Arm designed processor blueprints and licensed them out, collecting royalties without competing. That era is now over. The AGI CPU is Arm’s own silicon, co-designed with lead customer Meta, running up to 136 cores on TSMC’s 3nm process at 300 watts. Arm’s CEO says the company has more than $2 billion in customer demand across the next two fiscal years. Fujitsu brought the detail Cochrane called the coolest of the conference. Its MONAKA chip packs 144 Arm-based cores, but the trick is the cache. Rather than sitting alongside the cores and eating die area, the entire last-level cache lives on a separate 5nm die with the 2nm compute die stacked directly on top. It ships in 2027 in 350-watt and 500-watt versions. NVIDIA had more stage time than anyone, with six sessions. Its new Vera CPU carries 88 cores of NVIDIA’s own Olympus design, which marks a change: the previous Grace CPU used Arm’s off-the-shelf cores. Consequently, Arm’s win here is the instruction set, not the blueprint. The memory disclosure drew the most attention, with a fully loaded system reaching 1.5TB at 1.2TB/s while the whole memory subsystem draws just 30 to 40 watts. The Caveat on NVIDIA’s Benchmark Slides Cochrane pushes back on how NVIDIA presented its numbers. On the standard SPEC integer benchmark, Vera scored 925 against AMD’s 128-core EPYC score of 898, about three percent ahead. However, the slide NVIDIA showed normalizes that same result per physical core, which makes a three percent gap look enormous. NVIDIA defends the choice, arguing that per-core throughput matters when thousands of AI agents run at once. Cochrane grants that it is a fair argument to make. Even so, his verdict is blunt: it is a different number from the headline one, and presenting it that way is not the best look.

Apple’s Newest Chip Landed in Its Cheapest Mac Last week’s episode covered the Mac Studio half of Apple’s August announcement. Tonight Cochrane takes the other half, the new Mac mini, and finds the numbering genuinely strange. The $899 base Mac mini gets the M6, which is Apple’s first 2nm chip and the newest process the company has shipped. It brings twelve CPU cores, twelve GPU cores, and 170GB/s of memory bandwidth. Apple also introduced a third CPU core class called super cores. So Apple’s most advanced chip sits in its cheapest desktop, while the M5 Pro, M5 Max and M5 Ultra above it all carry a lower number. It gets stranger. The M6 mini has Thunderbolt 4 while the pricier M5 Pro mini has Thunderbolt 5, and the memory ceiling runs backward too. Apple explains none of it across three announcement pages. Reading between the lines, Cochrane figures the M6 is the entry point of a new generation that shipped ahead of its larger siblings. London’s Robotaxis Started Carrying Passengers Arm’s monthly roundup covers everything outside the data center, and Wayve stood out. Transport for London granted the British self-driving company private hire vehicle licenses on August 5th, the same category a minicab needs. Then on September 3rd the service launched with Uber, marking the first autonomous rides ever offered to UK passengers. A small fleet of Ford Mustang Mach-Es covers anywhere in London except the airports, with a TfL-licensed safety driver still aboard. Over 140,000 Londoners signed up. The compute runs on NVIDIA’s Arm-based automotive platform, which is why Arm claims the win. Cochrane notes the pattern: once you set a standard nobody can move off, these wins keep arriving. Two more items round it out, both about squeezing AI onto phones. Google’s Pixel 11 shipped in August with the Tensor G6, and Google claims on-device AI runs up to 3.5x faster using 3.5x less energy. Those are Google’s own unbenchmarked figures. Separately, Graphcore’s research team worked with Arm to run an 11-billion-parameter vision model on phone-class processors by squeezing each parameter to 2.7 bits, taking the model from roughly 22GB down to 3.7GB. Intel Is Pitching AI Infrastructure From a Long Way Back Intel’s newsroom post previews the AI Infra Summit, running September 15th through 17th in Santa Clara. CEO Lip-Bu Tan takes a fireside chat on Tuesday morning, with three Intel sessions across the show. Cochrane unpacks two terms first. Physical AI means AI that acts in the real world through sensors and motors rather than living on a screen, and Intel takes it seriously enough to have renamed its PC division the Client Computing and Physical AI Group in May. Disaggregated inference splits the two phases of running a model: reading your prompt is compute-hungry, while writing the answer back is memory-hungry. The context is where this gets interesting. Intel’s revenue rose 25 percent last quarter, its fastest growth since 2011. Nevertheless, in AI accelerators the company barely registers next to NVIDIA. Gaudi has effectively been abandoned, to the point that Intel stopped maintaining its open-source driver, and AMD passed Intel in data center revenue last quarter. Tellingly, when Intel demoed disaggregated inference at Computex, NVIDIA GPUs handled one phase and SambaNova chips the other while Intel supplied the coordinating CPU. Crescent Island, Intel’s actual inference chip, does not sample until later this year, and Intel declined to publish its memory bandwidth. Amazon Bought the Company Behind DuckDB On August 26th, Amazon signed a deal to acquire DuckLabs, the Amsterdam company behind DuckDB. Cochrane spends time explaining what DuckDB is, since listeners outside the data world may never have encountered it. The problem it solves is familiar. Querying a large pile of data files traditionally meant either running a database server or spinning up a data warehouse with a cluster, a bill, and a loading pipeline. Both are heavy machinery for a question you wanted answered in ten seconds. DuckDB instead ships as a library rather than a server. You add it to your program like any other package, point it at your files, and write ordinary SQL directly against them. The data never moves. The usual comparison is SQLite, which is embedded in nearly every phone and browser on earth. Where SQLite excels at looking up one record, DuckDB rebuilds that embedded idea for chewing through millions of rows. It now sees roughly 62 million monthly downloads on Python’s package index alone, up from about 25 million last October. AWS says it is buying the company, not the project. DuckDB stays free and open source under the MIT license, held by a Dutch nonprofit foundation, and the founders join AWS while continuing to run technical direction from Amsterdam. Andy Warfield, a VP and distinguished engineer at AWS, described DuckDB as “the glibc of structured data: a lean, unglamorous, ubiquitous dependency that a great deal of software links against and almost nobody has to think about.” Cochrane sits with what that ownership means. He reaches for an analogy: imagine Daniel Stenberg selling curl. He doubts it would ever happen, but the concept alone is startling given how much infrastructure depends on it. His read is that AWS is betting DuckDB becomes as foundational as curl and SQLite already are. GitHub Has One AI Model Grade Another One’s Homework GitHub shipped Project HydraFusion into Copilot as a research preview. Instead of routing your request to a single model, it picks one of three approaches per request. Sometimes one model simply answers. Alternatively, a cheaper model drafts, and a quality gate decides whether to escalate. The interesting one is Critique. One model writes the code, a separate model from a different family reviews it read-only, and the original gets one pass to revise. Despite the name, nothing is fused here. There is no voting and no merging, just one model at a time with a gate deciding whether to spend more. GitHub explained the reasoning in an earlier post: “a model reviewing its own work is still bounded by its own training biases: the same training data and techniques, the same blind spots.” Research supports it. A team at NeurIPS in 2024 showed that models recognize their own writing and score it higher than human graders do. GitHub’s earlier number had a Claude Sonnet and GPT critic pairing closing about three-quarters of the gap between Sonnet and the larger Opus model. This mirrors a workflow Cochrane uses constantly and has described on a previous episode. He runs a cross-check review with a second model from a different company, and it routinely surfaces issues the first model missed. He explains that different training data, different engineers, and different reinforcement approaches build different internal biases about what counts as correct. Looking ahead, he expects more of these “Frankenstein patterns” where models from different training families work together. The Best of IFA 2026, and What You Can Actually Buy IFA opened to the public in Berlin for its 102nd year, with about 1,900 brands. Cochrane splits The Verge’s roundup in two, since much of what generates headlines at these shows never ships. Starting with real products, iRobot’s flagship Roomba Max 875 Combo runs $1,199 and ships in about two weeks. Its SealForce feature drops a hidden skirt from the chassis when it detects carpet, sealing against the fibers so suction concentrates instead of leaking out the sides. That reaches 35,000 pascals, iRobot’s strongest yet. A step-down model at $899 carries the same trick, though Cochrane balks at both prices. Anker’s Soundcore Sleep 4 Pro earbuds arrive in November at $349.99. The charging case carries its own round touchscreen, so you pick soundscapes, set alarms, and read sleep stats without your phone. Optical sensors read heart rate and variability from the ear canal, which beats the wrist for accuracy, and the case masks a snoring partner. Cochrane remains unconvinced about sleeping with earbuds in. Philips also has smart rope lights, the Hue Liane 360, on sale now. They glow evenly around the tube rather than showing individual LEDs. They also run $400 for three meters, which works out to about $130 per meter of rope light. As for concepts nobody can buy, iRobot showed a robot vacuum that carries a smaller robot vacuum on its back in a garage and lowers it to deploy. Lenovo brought a 14-inch laptop whose screen rolls out to 17 inches at the press of a button, which reviewers call the first rollable that feels close to shippable. Tecno showed a phone with essentially no border around the screen, and Acer had a Windows gaming handheld that swivels its screen up over a keyboard. Two themes ran through the show. Humanoid robots were the loudest thing on the floor, and IFA’s own CEO framed the event as being about robots that work rather than robots that demo. Meanwhile, AI stopped being its own product category and became an ingredient, showing up in refrigerators, treadmills, dishwashers, and motorized TV mounts. Farmed Salmon Isn’t the Omega-3 Machine It Used to Be USDA scientists measured farmed salmon and found considerably less of the good fat than the government’s own database claims. EPA and DHA are two fatty acids you get almost entirely from fish. Your body can build them from the plant version, but only in tiny amounts, so the NIH’s position is that eating them is the only practical way to raise your levels. Those fatty acids are structural pieces of every cell, with DHA concentrating in the brain and retina. That is why the federal dietary guidelines, issued jointly by USDA and Health and Human Services, recommend at least eight ounces of fish a week and steer you toward salmon. That amount is calibrated to deliver about 250 milligrams a day. Published in Frontiers in Nutrition last month, the study found EPA and DHA in farmed Atlantic salmon came in 54.7 percent lower than USDA’s own reference values, last updated in 2018. A three-ounce serving fell from roughly 1,670 milligrams to about 756. Consequently, two servings a week now fall about 14 percent short of the target. Plant-derived fats meanwhile rose two to three times over. The likely cause is feed. Salmon are carnivores, and farms once fed them oily little fish. There was never going to be enough of those as the industry scaled, so crops filled the gap: soy, canola, sunflower and linseed. Importantly, the study does not claim to have proven this and calls the feed shift a plausible explanation. Independent corroboration lends it credibility. Researchers at Stirling measured a similar halving in Scottish salmon between 2006 and 2015, and Norway’s marine institute saw it across thousands of samples. There is a land dimension too. Roughly half the world’s soy grows in South America, where rainforest gets cleared for feed. Matthew Hayek, who studies the environmental cost of protein at NYU, told Inside Climate News that “soy is a major, important protein and oil ingredient in fish farming.” Adding up two decades of soy across all fish farming, he puts the extra forest clearing at around the area of Nicaragua or Bangladesh. That figure covers all fish farming rather than salmon alone, and Hayek notes it is hard to attribute soy use to any single species. Cochrane closes with two caveats. First, the study measured only eight fish, bought around Maryland, DC and Virginia over six weeks in 2023, and nearly all sourced from Chile. That is not a national survey, and the authors say plainly the sample was not large enough to change government advice. Rather, it flags that a federal database value needs rechecking, which is what the paper set out to do. Second, on whether you should care, farmed salmon still beats beef, chicken and eggs by a mile, since those carry essentially zero EPA and DHA. What it loses is its crown among fatty fish, dropping to mid-pack behind herring, sardines and mackerel and roughly level with trout. The broader health case is also softer than the 2000s suggested. A review of 86 trials covering 162,000 people found supplements barely moved heart attacks or deaths, so eating fish and swallowing fish oil are not the same claim. No producer has responded to the findings, and USDA, whose own scientists ran the study, declined an interview and did not answer emailed questions. Cochrane wraps up with housekeeping and a note that he will be back on Labor Day. The post The Mainframe Learned to Speak Arm #1875 appeared first on Geek News Central.

    If you've been following the financial news lately, you may have noticed something unusual: the bond market is getting a lot of attention.After a year of tariff shocks, interest-rate whiplash, tax policy changes and persistent questions about inflation and the national debt, bonds have moved from the financial pages into the broader economic conversation. And whenever markets get nervous about where the economy, inflation or government borrowing may be headed, attention tends to turn pretty quickly to the bond market.Because this isn't just Wall Street inside baseball.The bond market influences the interest rate on your mortgage. It influences how much the federal government pays to borrow money. It affects companies trying to finance everything from infrastructure to AI data centers. And it can offer some important clues about how investors are feeling about inflation, growth, recession risk and even the creditworthiness of the United States.So perhaps it's time we understood bonds a little better.And I have to admit, after more than a decade of hosting So Money, I don't think we've ever dedicated an entire episode to them.Today, we are fixing that.My guest is Robin Wigglesworth, one of the financial journalists who has been covering these markets up close for years. Robin is an editor at the Financial Times, where he leads FT Alphaville, its influential markets and finance blog. He's also the author of Trillions, his acclaimed history of the index-fund revolution and the rise of passive investing and ETFs.His new book is called A Fabulous Debt: The Epic Story of How Bonds Built the Modern World, and it comes out September 22.And I should emphasize: this is not a book about how to build a bond portfolio.Robin has written essentially a people's history of the bond market — and somehow made bonds genuinely entertaining. The story begins in Venice in 1171, takes us through Amsterdam and the development of modern finance, and brings us to America and Alexander Hamilton, whose decisions about government debt helped establish the creditworthiness of the young United States.Robin's larger argument is that we tend to think the stock market is the star of the financial system, when really the bond market is the foundation underneath it. In fact, as he tells me in our conversation, bonds are the “bedrock that the entire house rests upon.”We talk about what the 10-year Treasury yield can tell you about the economy — and why it matters more to mortgage rates than many people realize. We talk about America's nearly $40 trillion national debt and the big question: At what point does all of this borrowing actually become a problem?We also get into something I found fascinating: bonds have quietly financed some of the biggest transformations in modern history. Railroads. Canals. Telecommunications. The internet. And now, potentially, the enormous buildout of artificial intelligence.There are also fraudsters, scoundrels and some truly wild financial schemes along the way — including one man who essentially invented an entire country so he could sell its bondsLearn more about Farnoosh's upcoming literary workshop Book to Brand.
