Some products are famous because of where they come from — like Champagne from France or Scotch whisky from Scotland. Products like these are protected by something called a Geographical Indication, or GI. A GI means the product must be made in a certain place and follow certain rules. But sometimes, these rules can cause problems. In Jamaica, a new rule about Jamaican rum is causing a big debate. Skip Montreux and Dez Morgan explain what Geographical Indications are and why they are important in international business. They look at examples like Champagne and parmesan cheese and discuss how GIs help protect traditional products. They also talk about a disagreement in Jamaica, where a new GI rule for rum is causing trouble for some producers. Their conversation is a great learning resource if you want to build your English listening comprehension skills and expand your business vocabulary. Key points of their discussion include: What a Geographical Indication is and why it is different from a trademark. How GIs help local businesses and protect product quality. Why Jamaican rum producers are arguing about new GI rules. Do you like what you hear?

Gates in scripture are profound, holding great authority and access. They are not just physical locations but spiritual and governmental hubs. In biblical times, city gates were more than entrances; they were the center of activity. Elders ruled from the gates, legal matters were settled there, business transactions occurred, and justice was executed. More significant than the palace, the gate determined what entered and exited, making it the seat of power.Gates are not just physical; they are spiritual and prophetic markers in seasons and destinies.Gates are:Geographical and spiritual locations.Boundaries of protection both physical and spiritual. Spiritual Pathways into dimensions of grace and power.Thresholds to new seasons and times.Points of entry and exit.Points of entry into economic freedom and wealth—financial liberty flows through open gates.People who allow you access to dimensions and grace.Governments, they function as seats of power.There is warfare over gates because they determine destiny. Join us as we uncover how to recognize, war for, and walk through the gates God has assigned to you!

Intellectual property rights are becoming a key focus in the Caribbean, with countries moving to protect their locally produced goods through geographical indications (GIs). Now, Saint Lucia has made history by registering its first-ever GI, ensuring legal protection for a product uniquely tied to the island. But what does this mean for local businesses, and how does Saint Lucia compare with its regional counterparts?

Or the manner in which behavioral patterns exhibited by criminals can serve as crucial evidence that leads investigators to the perpetrator's doorstep? In today's episode, we are delighted to have the privilege of hosting Professor David Canter, a globally renowned applied social psychologist and the pioneering figure behind the field of investigative psychology. This episode promises a deep dive into the mind of a criminal, the psychology behind some of the world's most notorious cases. So, grab a pen, your notebook and follow Professor David Canter through the dark alleys of the minds of serial offenders as he sheds light on how their behavior is mapped and tracked. We'll go back in time to the streets of London as we examine famous cases such as Jack the Ripper, and travel back to the 1980s to learn about Operation Hart, the Metropolitan Police's investigation into the infamous 'Railway Rapist', which Professor Canter played a key role in solving. We will delve into the heart of criminal behavior as we learn about Quantico and the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit, and the truth about criminal profiling. We'll also talk about his revolutionary development of geographical profiling, the study of criminal behavior patterns across locations, the importance of information classification and investigative methods that lead to an arrest, and how these pieces of the puzzle led to the creation of his software, DRAGNETK. But that's not all - Prof Canter will also share his thoughts on why the United States has such a high incidence of brutal shootings and serial killings compared to other nations, and what happens when crime goes unpunished. A pioneer and creator of investigative psychology, Professor Canter is Emeritus Professor at the University of Liverpool and a visiting professor at Liverpool Hope University and Bucks New University. He's also the man responsible for introducing environmental psychology to the UK and Europe in the 1960s, studying how spaces such as offices, schools and hospitals affect our behavior. Professor Canter recently completed a PhD in Music composition. https://www.davidcanter.com X (Twitter): @ProfDavidCanter Blogs: http://tinyurl.com/ybkp6kky Prof. David Canter's latest book Criminal Psychology in Action: A project-based approach is available to order: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/overview-criminal-psychology-through-projects-ready-carry-canter-dglae Examples of Professor Canter's musical compositions are available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTkxt_0qEDE 3 15 full no nvestigative psychology,Criminal profiling,Geographical profiling,DRAGNETK software,Railway Rapist,Quantico FBI Behavioral Science Unit,FBI,Mapping Murder,Jack the Ripper,Serial killers Dr. Cecilia Ponce Rivera

"Nearshoring provides a better work product by reducing cultural and time zone barriers," says Chris Nicoli of Kongusto. Recorded at ITEXPO 2025, this podcast features Joel Ciniero and Chris Nicoli of Kongusto, discussing how nearshoring offers a higher-quality, cost-effective alternative to traditional outsourcing. Kongusto helps MSPs, IT service providers, and businesses leverage highly skilled Latin American talent for IT support, customer service, and back-office functions. “We're more than a standard outsourcing service. Our model ensures our nearshore staff operates at a quality level that makes them feel like part of your own company,” What is Nearshoring and Why It's Different from Outsourcing? Kongusto provides nearshore labor solutions—which means high-quality outsourced staffing without the typical drawbacks. Geographical & Time Zone Advantage – Nearshoring keeps operations in similar time zones, ensuring real-time collaboration and responsiveness. Cultural Proximity – Many employees have strong ties to the U.S., speak fluent English, and understand Western business norms. Seamless Integration – Employees become an extension of your team, rather than feeling like external contractors. Expanding the Use Case Beyond IT Support Nearshoring is often associated with customer and IT support, but Kongusto provides talent for a wide range of business functions. IT Helpdesk & Customer Support – Ensure cost-effective, skilled IT and customer service professionals. Accounts Payable, Billing & Project Management – Nearshoring extends to back-office functions that can streamline operations. Scalable Workforce – Businesses can scale quickly without the expense and complexity of domestic hiring. Why MSPs & Channel Partners Should Take Notice MSPs and technology providers already leverage outsourcing, but many have yet to experience the benefits of nearshoring in Latin America. Higher Retention & Quality – Nearshore employees stay longer, integrate better, and provide a higher level of service. Cost Savings Without Compromise – Companies get skilled professionals at a fraction of U.S. labor costs, but with better cultural alignment than offshore outsourcing. Proven Model for MSPs – Kongusto was founded by experienced MSP leaders who have successfully used this approach for years. Changing Perceptions at ITEXPO Kongusto received strong interest at ITEXPO, with many attendees re-evaluating their approach to outsourcing. Initial skepticism quickly turned into curiosity and excitement. Live employee interactions helped showcase the quality and professionalism of Kongusto's nearshore staff. MSPs saw first-hand how the model can improve service delivery while cutting costs.

January 22nd, 2025 - In this episode, Erin and Ashley discuss the complexities of fertility treatment in Canada with special guest Carolynn Dubé, the executive director of Fertility Matters Canada. They explore the emotional and financial challenges faced by individuals seeking fertility treatment, the advocacy efforts for equitable access to care, and the varying funding models across provinces. Carolynn shares her personal fertility journey and the importance of community support and awareness in navigating these challenges.The conversation highlights the need for systemic changes to improve access to fertility treatments and the ongoing efforts to advocate for better funding and support for those affected by infertility. In this conversation, Carolynn Dubé discusses the current landscape of fertility care in Canada, highlighting advancements in IVF funding, the barriers faced by individuals seeking treatment, and the advocacy efforts being made to improve access to care. The conversation emphasizes the importance of community support and individual advocacy in navigating the fertility journey, as well as the need for a national strategy to address declining birth rates and support diverse family-building options.Key Takeaways: Fertility treatment can be overwhelming and emotional. Advocacy is crucial for equitable access to fertility care. Funding for fertility treatments varies widely across provinces. Many provinces lack adequate funding for fertility treatments. The average cost of IVF in Canada is around $20,000. Quebec has one of the most robust fertility funding programs. Ontario is increasing funding to triple access to care. Alberta currently has no fertility funding program. Community support is vital for those facing infertility. Personal stories can drive advocacy and change in fertility care. Infertility is now recognized as a medical diagnosis. Only a small percentage of those needing fertility care actually access it. Geographical barriers significantly impact access to fertility clinics. Advocacy is crucial for improving fertility care policies. Government engagement is essential for funding and support. Community support can greatly enhance the fertility journey. Traveling for treatment adds layers of stress and complexity. Fertility care should be viewed as a health issue, not a lifestyle choice. Individuals can play a role in advocating for better fertility benefits. Support systems outside of partners are vital for emotional well-being.Find Fertility Matters Canada onhttps://www.fertilitymatters.ca/@fertility_canadaon InstagramFollow Fertility Village on Instagram⁠⁠ @fertility__village⁠⁠Find out more about Oasis FSN at⁠⁠@oasisfsn⁠⁠ or⁠⁠https://oasisfsn.com/⁠⁠Don't forget to tune in LIVE every Wednesday night from 8-9pm EST for another great episode;⁠⁠Link to YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠Link to Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠Link to Instagram

Geographical psychology examines links between location and psychological phenomena, such as how and why personality traits, life satisfaction, and social behavior differ from place to place—or cluster in certain areas. These differences may appear across hemispheres, regions, states, cities, or neighborhoods. Every location houses psychologically diverse residents. But general differences between populations in distinct places can be informative. If neuroticism or life satisfaction is higher in a certain region, researchers can explore whether geographic aspects of the place, or commonalities among those who choose to live there, might account for the relatively positive or negative trends. Researchers have long explored the links between geography and mental health, hoping to answer questions such as whether the environment in which we live affects our personalities and influences who we are or who we're destined to be.

Hannan Parvizian is Co-founder and CEO of Exowatt. Exowatt turned heads earlier this year when it announced a $20 million Seed round with backers including Andreessen Horowitz, Atomic, and Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI. The company has developed a novel combined solution for energy generation and storage that concentrates heat from the sun, stores it as thermal energy, and converts it on demand to electricity.They've primarily focused their go-to-market around the data center boom driven by AI and argue that their solution is purpose-built for the massive energy need of data centers. We were eager to hear from Hannan as the rapid increase in energy demand from hyperscalers and AI remains a huge topic in the energy space, especially as we work to transition away from fossil fuels while also meeting AI-fueled demand.In this episode, we explore Hannan's insights on the limitations of "traditional" solar PV and lithium-ion battery storage in meeting these needs—and how Exowatt aims to bridge this gap.In this episode, we cover: [2:01] An overview of Exowatt[4:56] Exowatt's technology and approach[6:29] Reasons for pursuing a thermal energy storage solution[14:46] Hannan's previous startup experience[16:45] How Exowatt's Seed round came together[20:07] Response to skepticism about Exowatt's technology[24:41] Technical details on the Exowatt P3 system[29:09] Geographical and land use considerations[34:33] Comparison of Exowatt's approach to other thermal energy storage solutions[38:59] Exowatt's manufacturing and deployment strategy[41:48] Pricing and economics of the company's system[43:10] Current deployments and future growth plans[43:44] Hannan's perspectives on Exowatt's competitive advantages and challenges[46:02] Where Exowatt needs helpEpisode recorded on Oct 10, 2024 (Published on Nov 7, 2024) Stay Connected with MCJ:Cody Simms on LinkedIn | XVisit mcj.vcSubscribe to the MCJ NewsletterEnjoyed this episode?

Title: Languaging in Hampton Roads Episode 8 : Road Trip in Hampton Roads: Uncovering the Origins of Geographical Names Hosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue Salasky Date: Sept. 5, 2024 Length: 31:45 min Publication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx)  of each month Co-hosts Jill Winkowski and Prue Salasky take a road trip to the far corners of Hampton Roads in S.E. Va. They're in search of the provenance of the names, Elephant's Fork in Suffolk, Cuffeytown in Chesapeake, and Chic's Beach in Virginia Beach, and what those names tell us about the history and culture of the region.  The duo talk about toponymy, or the study of place names, and semiotics, the study of signs, and how those disciplines apply to their discoveries.  They share the rules and regulations involved in the official naming process. At the state level there's the Virginia Board on Geographic Names: Senior Map Archivist, Library of Virginia, 800 East Broad St. Richmond, Va. 23219; 804-692-3617; vabgn@lva.virginia.gov. Nationally, the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, BGN, was fully established in 1947; its naming conventions include allowing only 5 places nationwide to have names that include an apostrophe (Martha's Vineyard is one of them). The BGN works closely with state, tribal and local governments, as well as the general public. At Elephant's Fork the duo uncover a community recognition of the name but no understanding of how it came to be; subsequent research, including the use of the free digitized archive of Virginia newspapers, virginiachronicle.com, unearthed its origin in a giant tin elephant used to advertise the emporium of one H.J. Bowen in 1903.  Stories attached to the name included that of Mary Chapman, as recorded in Tidewater Voices,  https://digitalcommons.odu.edu/tidewatervoices, an ongoing digital archive project of Old Dominion University in Norfolk; and that of Angelo Scott, a current Suffolk resident, who recounted his perceived experience of abrupt integration as a 2nd-grader in 1971. At Cuffeytown, a historic community in Chesapeake founded by free blacks in the 1700 they recount their difficulties in finding the historic Cuffeytown cemetery, the final resting place for the Cuffeytown 13. These were Civil War veterans who fought for the Union. Crops at peak growth prevented their access. They did visit the AME Zion Church, founded in 1866, and learned there the identities of the 13 veterans, almost half of them Cuffeys. (See the below list)  5th USCT  Pvt. Walter Smith, Co. I 10th USCT Sgt. William Coffey, Co. G Pvt. Bluet Cuffey, Co. H Corp. Emerson Cuffey, Co. G Pvt. Lemuel Cuffey, Co. F Sgt. Wilson Cuffey, Co. H Sgt. William Cuffey, Co. F Corp. William Sevils, Co. H Pvtd. Cornelius Smith, Co. F Pvt. James W. Smith, Co. F Pvt. Samuel Smith, Co. H Pvt. John Whitehurst, Co. H 36th USCT Sgt. Thomas Van, Co. C From there the intrepid pair took the back roads to Chic's Beach in Virginia Beach, whose recorded history dates back to Native Americans and then the earliest European settlers, but whose current nickname harks back to the mid-20th century. The bayfront neighborhood, officially called Chesapeake Beach, saw a flurry of real estate dealings in the early part of the 20th century and was built out by the 1960s. Local lore attributes the nickname that stuck, Chic's Beach, to one Luther ‘Chic' Ledington who operated a hot dog stand in a beachfront building until 1967.  There's so much to learn from the names we see around us daily!

Luke Thomas, CEO of World Child Cancer: Bridging the Gap in Pediatric Cancer Care We delve into the critical work of World Child Cancer, an organization dedicated to improving the diagnosis and treatment of childhood cancer in low to middle-income countries. World Child Cancer was established in 2007 to address the significant disparity in survival rates between children diagnosed with cancer in high-income countries and those in low-income regions. While survival rates in countries like the UK and the US are around 80-90%, they drop to 20-30% in the regions where World Child Cancer operates. The organization's mission is to bridge this gap by providing comprehensive support that includes improving early diagnosis, offering training to healthcare professionals, and enhancing infrastructure. Operating in 13 countries across Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, and Latin America, World Child Cancer collaborates closely with local hospitals and governments. They are not just grant makers but are also deeply involved in service delivery. Their approach includes training local pediatric oncologists, nurses, and pharmacists to ensure that high-quality care is available. They also address logistical challenges, such as ensuring the availability of medications and overcoming geographical barriers that prevent children from accessing treatment. The podcast explores the key challenges faced by World Child Cancer, including the lack of awareness about pediatric cancer among healthcare professionals and the general public, which often leads to misdiagnoses or delayed diagnoses. Geographical barriers and the availability of diagnostic equipment and expertise are also significant hurdles. Many families in rural areas struggle to reach hospitals due to distance and financial constraints, complicating the early and accurate diagnosis of cancer. World Child Cancer is currently undergoing a strategic review to better address these challenges, with a particular focus on improving early diagnosis. The organization recognizes that approximately 50% of children with cancer in low to middle-income countries never receive a diagnosis, and they are looking for partners to help fill gaps and provide comprehensive care. The episode also highlights the successes of World Child Cancer, such as their strong partnerships with local institutions and their holistic approach to patient care. This includes providing psychosocial support to families, ensuring that children adhere to treatment protocols and receive the comprehensive care they need. Despite these successes, the organization continues to seek improvements, particularly in early diagnosis. Luke Thomas shares his personal journey from a career in corporate headhunting to his current role in the non-profit sector, driven by a desire to make a meaningful impact and inspired by his mother's battle with cancer. His story underscores the passion and commitment that fuels World Child Cancer's mission. Thank you for downloading this episode of the Do One Better Podcast.

Typically we think of salvation as intellectual, or what you can do.  But our ideas tend to be backward. Looking at salvation geographically brings that into focus. This episode discusses the idea of salvation as geographical, and we consider many biblical narratives and verses about being in proximity to Christ. In the episode, I mention The Parabolic Universe book on Amazon.  You can find it here.

“If the war was to be over by Christmas, as many believed, or at the latest by Easter 1915, tens of thousands of soldiers might be killed or wounded before the guns fell silent. Every army believed that it could crush its opponents within a few months.” Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! Join us as we dive into The First World War by Martin Gilbert. We'll explore the intricate details of WW1, from the seemingly pointless triggers to the significant aftermath that reshaped the world. We'll also touch on intriguing historical anecdotes, like Germany's return in WW2, and the far-reaching consequences of redrawing borders. History lovers, buckle up for this one! We cover a wide range of topics including: Technological advancements from cavalry to tanks and planes How WW1 redrew the map and ended empires The concept of 'war guilt' and its impact America's pivotal role and the intercepted telegram The seemingly unnecessary triggers of the first World War And much more. Please enjoy, and make sure to follow Nat, Neil, and Adil on Twitter and share your thoughts on the episode.

Pershing (41:03) Dan Carlin (1:37:32) Ernest Shackleton (1:38:47) Show Topics: (0:00) Today, we're covering The First World War by Martin Gilbert. While the book offers a detailed play-by-play of WW1, it wasn't the most enjoyable read. However, we gained significant insights into the war. (4:53) The war's triggers and conflicts felt somewhat pointless. Despite this, WW1 felt more significant than WW2 as it redrew maps and ended four empires. Unlike WW2's clear-cut good vs. evil narrative, WW1 began with cavalry and ended with advanced technology like planes, tanks, gas, and submarines. (8:02) Numerous underlying tensions grew and eventually exploded in unpredictable ways. One of the triggers was Germany's insecurity about its geographical position. We delve into the circumstances that led to the start of the war. (11:10) A major theme was the widespread belief that the war would end quickly, without long-term consequences. We discuss what wars were like before WW1, typically regional with smaller armies and less impact on civilian populations. (13:57) What was the aftermath of the war like? You might belong to a different town or region, but it may not have affected your daily life much. (18:00) Nat, Neil, and Adil talk about the multiple empires that collapsed during this time.  (20:10) War guilt was a new concept, unlike previous wars where the winning side simply negotiated their gains. The sheer number of deaths and the devastation of this war was shocking.  (25:35) How did the Ottoman Empire get involved and what was their involvement in the war? (27:05) The Germans came back much stronger in WWII, despite being devastated in WWI. They put up a bigger fight just 20 years later. It leads us to wonder, from where did they find the resources? (31:38) How the war marked a complete era shift. Would communism have had as much impact in the 20th century without WWI? Would the Soviet Union have emerged? (34:42) We take a look at a map of empires before WW1 and how the territories looked before then, which leads into our first tangent of this episode! (37:52) Though Mexico wasn't involved in the war, Germany sent them a telegram promising several U.S. states in exchange for support. The British intercepted this message and informed the U.S. (40:34) America's entry into the war truly tipped the scales and accelerated the conflict. They joined gradually, but their involvement turned the tide. We discuss the telegram that prompted America's entry into WWI. (43:58) We were surprised by the advanced use of submarines in WWI. It's fascinating to consider how much the world has changed, especially thinking about the Ottoman Empire, which lasted over 600 years. (47:49) WWI was the first time oil played a significant role, and the Ottoman Empire had some of the largest oil reserves. Had they survived, they could have controlled one of the 20th century's most crucial resources. From the four dissolved empires, 40 new countries emerged. (50:12) While book wasn't the most entertaining and it felt repetitive, its importance lies in how it made people rethink the norms and rules of engagement. If a major war broke out next year, for example, there would likely be a similar period of figuring out new ground rules. (57:15) The Russian Revolution. Two generations of European leaders were responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people. With two major world wars only 20 years apart, the loss of life was staggering. (1:02:11) In the last 6 months of the war, everyone believed they were losing. The Germans were preparing to surrender, and the British doubted they would make it. After the war, the US never ratified the Treaty of Versailles and chose not to get involved in the aftermath. (1:06:31) The redrawing of borders after the war marked the end of colonialism, profoundly impacting various parts of the world. Much of the end of colonialism stemmed from the end of WW1 and the dissolution of empires. The poorly executed division of territories led to cascading conflicts in the aftermath. (1:11:25) The Hapsburg empire isn't extensively covered in the book, yet it was a very old empire, with its dynasty dating back to the 11th century. The exact beginnings are unclear since it follows a family rather than a defined state, making the timeline a bit blurry. (1:13:34) We talk about the Marshall Plan. Would the Marshall Plan be effective in a kingdom-era setup? Plus, we talk about the idea of 'collective insanity' and how it can be seen as a form of self-governance, where a group loses its rationality as opposed to just an individual. (1:20:25) There were many overarching themes of the book and the war as a whole: From the end of the old European system to the transition from kingdoms to states. (1:24:01) Geographical positioning and how that plays a huge impact where you sit on the map. Much of the war is a downstream of geography. Some European countries were at a disadvantage based off of where they are on the map.  (1:30:25) How lives changed drastically because of the war. One day you're working your normal job and the next you're on the front lines of the war. (1:35:59) Neil and Adil give their final thoughts on the book, Gilbert's writing style, and what they took away from reading the book.  (1:38:47) That wraps up this episode!

Commentary by Dr. Valentin Fuster

Plenty of people living in the United States claim to be unhappy. Meanwhile, plenty of people living in other countries yearn for the unique freedoms the United States offers. In this episode, the second in a two-part series, Dan Sullivan and Mark Young share three mindsets that anyone—even non-Americans—could adopt to feel better about their lives. In This Episode: Unhappy Americans are dominating the narrative. The left feel negatively about America's present and past. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is entirely geared to individuals. Happiness has to be worked at and earned. The United States is exceptional in how it encourages and rewards innovations of useful knowledge, skills, and techniques. America is the only country geared to encourage individual success and achievement. The United States is not a convincing argument. It's a compelling offer. There's a segment of the population that occupies the ranks of higher education and it's all about argument. Entrepreneurism is the most highly rewarded activity in the United States. Confident people don't shout. Resources: Visual Capitalist

Medicine is indeed a noble profession, one that transcends the boundaries of science and reaches into the depths of human compassion. Physicians are not merely practitioners of medicine; they are healers, caregivers, and advocates for the well-being of their patients.  It requires years of intense study, training, and examination. But becoming a doctor is just the start. After medical school and residency, physicians continue learning and developing throughout their careers, exploring new paths and discovering more about themselves along the way.   Doctors need to be strong and flexible to do well in a healthcare world that's always changing and often confusing. They have to face problems with bravery, keep going even when things don't work out, ask for help when they need it, and understand that changing jobs is normal in healthcare. This helps them become even better at what they do. Therefore, doctors must possess not only clinical expertise but also resilience, adaptability, and a willingness to embrace change.    Amy Vertrees MD is a General Surgeon, Surgeon Coach, Author of "Become the BOSS MD", Keynote speaker, and Founder of BOSS Business of Surgery Series. With a deep understanding of the challenges physicians face beyond the operating room, Dr. Amy is dedicated to empowering her peers to take control of their careers and thrive. Drawing from her own journey and years of expertise, she understands that residency training only scratches the surface of what it takes to succeed in the medical field. It became her mission to guide fellow physicians toward becoming the BOSS MD they aspire to be. Her approach is not just about surviving in medicine but thriving—with Dr. Amy's guidance, physicians can regain autonomy, find balance, and rediscover the joy in their profession.   In this episode, I will share with you an interview I had with the Business of Surgery Series podcast with Doctor Amy Vertrees. Some of the key themes that emerged from our discussion were the importance of adaptability and resilience in the face of unexpected changes, the emotional toll of job loss and career transitions in medicine, and the art of physician contract negotiation. We also talked about the intricacies of navigating career transitions in the medical field, drawing from my own experiences and insights gained over the years. Tune in to learn how to thrive amidst uncertainty and change.   "What we have to learn in practice is how to run and build a practice.
