Austin Allred is a dairyman located in the Columbia basin of Washington State and operates Royal Family Farms. His parents started farming 50 years ago, and now Austin, as well as his brothers, own their own operations. Together, their four farms have grown over 1 million tons of potatoes, boxes of apples, boxes of cherries, bushels of corn, and bales of hay, beans, peas, asparagus, and more. Austin's dairy produces 1 million gallons of milk per month. Fifteen years ago, the family began their regenerative journey when they decided to become more self-sufficient and reduce their dependency on synthetic fertilizers. Their different farming operations work together to create a self-sustaining loop, a key to their innovation and success.  Today, Austin Allred is a strong proponent of regenerative agriculture and loves finding innovative ways to work together with his family to further the success and overall health of their soil, crops, and cattle. In this episode, Austin and John discuss: Reducing the need for fertilizers by bringing in cattle to his operation Using byproducts from neighboring farms for nutrient balance feed Increasing nitrogen independency Liquid manure management and composting systems Reducing water consumption by recycling it on the farm Utilizing marketing to showcase the story of products Developing other income streams on the farm The importance of collaboration between growers  Additional Resources To learn more about Royal Dairy, please visit: https://www.royaldairy.com/on-the-farm or watch their documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfSzdzgDXjE Friend Earthworm by George Oliver: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0980297613/ref=x_gr_bb_amazon?ie=UTF8&tag=x_gr_bb_amazon-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0980297613&SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2 About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

True leadership is not about showing strength, but embracing vulnerability. George Oliver, Chairman and CEO of Johnson Controls, believes that being a good leader is all about being genuine and open. It's important to treat everyone fairly and share personal stories to connect with the team.  George recalls about the times he felt unsure, especially during COVID. But he feels that being honest and admitting when you don't know something is a strength, not a weakness.  Real leadership is about being responsible, truthful, and understanding towards others.  For George, a great leader is one who listens, is honest about their feelings, and always tries to do right by their team. George Oliver leads a company with over 100,000 employees.  He's one of the 100+ CEOs I interviewed for my new book, Leading With Vulnerability: https://www.amazon.com/Leading-Vulnerability-Superpower-Transform-Organization/dp/1119895243/  __________________ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

Diyabet ile idrar bağlantısı çok eskilerden beri bilinmektedir. “Çok fazla idrar boşaltma” ile karakterize edilen bir hastalık, antik çağda MÖ 1500'lerdeki Mısır el yazmalarında bile yerini bulur. Karıncaları cezbettiği için Hintli doktorlar buna madhumeha (bal idrarı) adını verirler. “Kayserili Arete” olarak da bilinen Kapadokyalı Aretaeus, MS 1. Yüzyılda; “…içeceklerin hiçbir önemli kısmı vücut tarafından emilmezken, etin büyük bir kısmı idrarla sıvılaştırılır.” diye gözlemlerini aktarır ve “diyabet” (Yunanca, "sifon") kelimesini literatüre kazandırır. “Mellitus” (Latince, "bal gibi tatlı") teriminin eklenmesi için aradan yüzlerce yıl geçmesi gerekir. Hastalığı, idrarın tatsız olduğu diğer diyabet hastalığından (insipidus) ayırt etmek için 1798'de İngiliz Genel Cerrahı John Rollo “Diyabetes Mellitus” terimini oluşturur. Ortada test imkanı olmayınca, iş doktorlara düşer. Mesela Londralı bir doktor olan Willis, yüzlerce yıldır uygulanan bir yöntemin iyice duyulmasına yol açar; hastalarının “idrarının tadına bakma”sıyla meşhur olur. İdrar şekerli ise hasta Diyabetli tanısı alır, dosya kapanır. Neyse ki ilerleyen yıllarda teknoloji aşama aşama gelişir, doktorlar glukometre, diller test strip'i olmaktan kurtulur. Sürekli Kan Şekeri Takibi Nasıl Mümkün Oldu? İdrarda glukoz miktarını belirleme girişimleri, insülinin keşfinden daha öncesine, 1800'lerin ortalarına kadar uzanır. 1883'de George Oliver yatak başı idrarda glukoz ölçümünü tanımlar. Stanley Benedict, bu yöntemi 1908'de modifiye eder ve bakır reaktifi ile idrar glukozu ölçümü yapılır. Bu yöntem 50 yılı aşkın süre bazı modifikasyonlara uğrayarak kullanılmaya devam eder. Yöntemin en büyük zorluğu ısıtma işlemi gerektirmesidir. Ancak 1945'te modifiye bakır reaktif tabletleri içeren Clinitest (Ames, Elkhart, ABD)'in piyasaya çıkması ile işler biraz kolaylaşır. Bu testte glukoz oksitlenir ve “glukozüri miktarının, ısıtılan çözeltinin rengiyle orantılı olduğu” prensibiyle sonuç elde edilir. Aynı yıllarda benzer yöntemle idrarda keton da bakılmaya başlanır. İdrarda Glokuz ölçüm sistemi Clinitest (1950'ler) 1950'lerin ortalarında, glukoz oksidaz içeren “kuru strip”ler geliştirilir. 1957'de Miles-Ames laboratuvarı, idrar glukozu için daldır ve ölç (dipstick) denilen Clinistix adındaki stripleri geliştirir. Ancak bu yöntemin birçok kısıtlılığı vardır. Bir kere örneğin alım şeklinden ve örnek miktarından fazlasıyla etkilenir. Sonra glukozun saptanabilmesi için “bir hayli” yüksek olması gerekir. 1965 yılında Ames firması ilk kan şekeri test stripini geliştirir: Dextrostix adı verilen bu strip, üzerine bir damla kan damlatılması 60 saniye sonra yıkanması ile çalışır; ortaya çıkan renk şişe üzerindeki bir tabloyla karşılaştırılarak sonuç elde edilir. Haliyle bu strip, ev kullanımı için değil, doktor muayenehaneleri için üretilmiştir ve “Göz var izan var” prensibine dayandığı için sonuçları birazcık “göreceli”dir. İlk glukometre 1970'lerde Dextrostix ile kullanılır, ancak sonuçlar hala istenildiği düzeyde tutarlı değildir. 1970'lerin ortalarında, hastaların evde kan şekeri takiplerini yapabilmeleri fikri iyiden iyiye düşünülmeye başlar. Hem teknoloji elverişlidir, hem de hastalığın matematiği enikonu ortaya çıkar. 1977'de Glikozile Hemoglobin (HbA1c) ölçümü ile ilgili çalışmalar başlar. Uzun süreli kan şekeri kontrolünün iyi olmasının, diyabete bağlı komplikasyonların önlenmesinde çok önemli olduğu barizdir; ancak sıkı glisemik kontrol, beraberinde ölümcül bir risk de taşımaktadır: Hipoglisemi. Çare sık kan şekeri takibi ve buna izin verecek cihazlardır şüphesiz. Ames firmasının parmak ucu kan şekeri ölçüm cihazı (1990'lar) 1980'de Dextrometer piyasaya sürülür; bu glukometrede de Dextrostix kullanılmakta, ama artık sonuçlar dijital ekranda görünmektedir. 1980'lerde sektör çığ gibi büyür; giderek daha başarılı, daha ucuz, kullanımı daha kolay glukometre ve stripler kullanılmaya başlar. İmkanların genişlemesiyle bakım kalitesi de artar; hastaların kan şekeri ta...

Tucked away in a warren of testing cub­icles and curious contraptions, we find Franco Rigolon hard at work. His job involves making just one thing, and it's not something he can make very quickly. Franco is a wheel-builder, the sole person in charge — the only one with the know-how — of one of the company's most enduring products: the Ghibli wheel.After Valentino Campagnolo took over following the death of his father in 1983, the Ghibli was one of his first great successes. In a time where almost every wheel was made the same way it had been since before the company's beginning, Campagnolo put a team of engineers to work on coming up with some new ideas.From there came the concept of using fibres rather than spokes to create the tension and maintain structure. This was lighter, stronger, resistant to temperature changes and allowed more aerodynamic shapes.It was, to use an old cliché, a game changer.From Miguel Indurain's hour record to Alex Zanardi's Paralympic gold, the Campagnolo Ghibli has been a winning set of wheels. Meet the man who makes these labour intensive works of art.The Rouleur Longreads Podcast brings you selected long form articles from the magazine, especially recorded for Rouleur.

It is late summer 2015 and nobody knows that Tom Dumoulin is on the verge of a breakthrough. Not the 24 year-old Dutchman himself, nor his team-mates at Giant-Alpecin. It doesn't figure in his employers' plans. The top tens of Grand Tour contenders put out by magazines and websites ahead of such races do not feature him. The best three-week riders in the world might know his name but have no idea he is set to join their ranks. Dumoulin has shown promise in week-long races, winning stages at the Tour de Suisse and the Eneco Tour, placing twice overall in successive years at both. He finished second to Tony Martin in the penultimate stage TT at last year's Tour de France. By more than a minute but still, Tony Martin. A podium at Paris-Nice, maybe Romandie, should be next, though Dumoulin has already said his target for 2016 is an Olympic medal. A gold one. He is thought of by his team as an exciting prospect for the future but they see him, for now at least, as “a world class time trialist who's very good on the hills”. He can make it over the high mountains (more or less) but he is not expected to challenge in them. That is about to change.He's one of the best Grand Tour men of a generation now; in 2015, Tom Dumoulin was a 1,000-1 outsider before the Vuelta a España that kickstarted his career. The “Butterfly of Maastricht” and his team-mates reflect on how they nearly pulled off the greatest shock in modern Grand Tour racing.The Rouleur Longreads Podcast brings you selected long form articles from the magazine, especially recorded for Rouleur.

“We often refer to a bad or disastrous day as a dark one. The kind of dark that surrounded my family, team and friends that­­ day, all the while ignoring the fact that I was swimming in white. A dazzling, shiny and pure white, but at the same time cold and enigmatic.

“My world collapsed. I wasn't a cyclist anymore. From one moment to another, I lost not only my job, but also what I like to do. They took away a part of my personality. There was a lot of crying in the time after.”A professional cyclist's heart is trained to be as big and strong as possible, allowing it to pump massive amounts of blood and oxygen around the body. Most cyclists have a ticker 50 per cent bigger than that of a regular person. Miguel Indurain possessed a superhuman resting heart rate of around 30 beats per minute; a normal, well-trained adult heart has one of 72.But, in pushing themselves to the extreme, they are in danger of developing arrhythmia.Two months prior to the 2016 Tour of Oman, doctors had found a life-threatening arrhythmia in Johan Vansummeren's heart. He had been through dozens of checks and was equipped with a heart monitor during the Middle Eastern race.Vansummeren's legs felt worse than ever, and momentarily cramped while going up a steep climb.His cardiologists back in Belgium had seen the exact moment his legs cramped, and it correlated with a spike in his heartbeat. They called him.Aware of the initial tests, the AG2R doctors banned Vansummeren from finishing the race. Hours later, Vansummeren was on his way back to Lommel, where he was born and still lives, transformed from a healthy elite athlete to a man with a life-threatening heart arrhythmia. The Tour of Oman would be his last race as a professional cyclist.The Rouleur Longreads Podcast brings you selected long form articles from the magazine, especially recorded for Rouleur.

Oliver Onions Oliver Onions was born in Bradford, Yorkshire, England in 1873 and died in Aberystwyth in Wales in 1961, His father was a bank cashier. When he was a young man he was an amateur boxer.  He didn’t like the surname Onions and changed it legally to George Oliver but still published his stories under the name Oliver Onions. Onions is in fact a Welsh name, being from the Welsh Ab Einion. Onions trained as an artist and worked as an illustrator. His most famous ghost story is The Beckoning Fair One. He is reckoned as one of the best writers of ghost stories. He has a very conversational lyrical style and the characters in his story come out via the tone of their voice. The Cigarette Case is a neat little story with a lovely twist in the end. We probably guess what’s going to happen, but it’s very well done. I particularly like Loder’s asides to other members of the circle, such as Marsham the romantic and Smith the sceptic. I was reminded by this story of An Adventure which is the reportedly true tale of two English ladies having a time slip experience in France at the Paris of Versailles in the early 20th Century. The Cigarette Case was published in 1911 in the collection Widdershins and I believe An Ad venture was published in 1910, so it is not impossible that the tale of two English ladies in France who mysteriously disappear was inspired by An Adventure. I’ll put a link to An Adventure here (https://amzn.to/38vtWMB) Ghost Stories in a Haunted Castle Come along to Dalston Hall, Carlisle in March to hear me read ghost stories, get a tour of the ghosts, have dinner, and even stay overnight in a haunted room!

Looking for a more portable way to enjoy your favourite cycling magazine? You're in luck, as this week sees the launch of the Rouleur Longreads Podcast: selected long form articles from the magazine, especially recorded for Rouleur. Don't stop what you're doing – do it while listening to the world's best cycling writing.We begin with ‘The Rise of Gravel' by Hugo Gladstone, from Rouleur 20.1. Read by George Oliver.Once the scourge of cyclists, today we glorify in gravel sectors. Strade Bianche, one of the most looked-forward-to races of the spring, owes its success in no small part to the penchant of audiences for the untarmaced white roads and clouds of dust kicked up in the riders' wake, all framed by “the lyrical Tuscan landscape.”Perhaps it speaks to a certain yearning for authenticity, and back-to-basics bike riding that the Tour de France cannot cater to. It can't be a coincidence that bike-packing's popularity has risen at the same time. Whether or not the road scene's dominance is actually under threat remains to be seen, but we've already seen a few roadies abandon the WorldTour for the off-road circuit.How we learned to take the rough with the smooth.For more of the world's finest cycling writing, subscribe to the magazine or purchase individual issues, head over to Rouleur.cc See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
