An employment law expert says a firefighter who used an obscene gesture about the Prime Minister brought Fire and Emergency into disrepute. A clip posted on social media shows Chris Luxon speaking with a person before heading towards a Defence Force helicopter. The volunteer firefighter then turns to the camera and makes an obscene gesture. Fire and Emergency is now investigating. Employment law expert Max Whitehead says volunteers don't have the same rights as a career firefighter, and explained she wouldn't be able to sue the organisation if she were fired.

In this soul-stirring episode of The Feminine Frequency, Amy Natalie sits down with Jen Aks, an embodied leadership coach and author of the transformative book, Your Body is Speaking. Together, they explore the profound shift from living exclusively "from the neck up" to reclaiming the intuitive intelligence of the entire physical form.Jen shares her powerful journey of overcoming a decade of misalignment—moving from a state of frozen insecurity to discovering "Body-Set," a practice that prioritizes somatic wisdom over logical overthinking. The conversation dives into Jen's signature methodology, The Power of Gesture, revealing how simple hand movements can communicate directly with the brain to regulate the nervous system and unlock authentic expression. This episode is a call to action for every woman to stop bypassing her truth and start leading from a place of deep, embodied trust.Themes: Real alignment happens when you stop overthinking and start integrating the body's deep wisdom.Your hands are a direct neurological portal from anxiety to safety and clarity.Reclaiming your brilliance by embracing emotional and kinesthetic wisdom over societal boxes.Build radical self-trust by giving every internal emotion a voice instead of gaslighting yourself.True leadership is the ability to guide others through the safety and authenticity of your own presence.Your unique energetic resonance is the one thing AI can never replicate.Somatic tools allow you to bypass "fight or flight" and return to empowered action.

What if machines could truly see and understand how we move? In this episode, I sit down with Sherry Shang, CEO and co-founder of Neural Lab, a company reimagining how we interact with technology through visual intelligence AI and gesture-based interfaces. Sherry's journey from Intel technologist to startup founder began with a pivotal moment during the pandemic. What started as a side project in her living room became Neural Lab—a platform that turns basic webcams into powerful tools for gesture recognition, with no specialized hardware required.Now, Neural Lab is unlocking new ways to deliver care, boost performance, and support human potential. From sterile surgery rooms to personalized rehab and coaching, touchless interaction is creating fresh possibilities for how we live and work with AI.Key TakeawaysComputer vision is gaining eyes: Sherry frames visual intelligence as the “missing sense” in AI—complementing language models with sight.Entrepreneurship is about timing: Sherry waited until her kids were older to build Neural Lab, choosing to innovate on her own terms.Gesture recognition is real—and ready: Neural Lab's technology translates hand motions into universal commands with no need for specialized hardware.Human-centered design is essential: From recognizing intentional gestures to modeling real-world physicality, their design is inspired by how humans naturally interact.Healthcare leads the way: Use cases like sterile surgical environments are proving to be strong early markets for gesture control.Additional InsightsVisual intelligence is the missing sense in AI: Sherry describes computer vision as adding "eyes" to AI, enabling machines to interpret physical space just as large language models allow them to process language.Entrepreneurship is about timing: Sherry chose to start Neural Lab once her children were older, aligning her professional ambitions with personal priorities.Gesture recognition is real—and ready: Their product works with any basic camera and translates 15 customizable gestures into commands for existing applications—no new hardware required.Designing for human nuance matters: Neural Lab focuses on distinguishing intentional from unintentional gestures using cues like eye gaze and body motion—mimicking how humans communicate.Healthcare is an urgent use case: Environments like surgery rooms benefit immediately from touchless interaction, helping maintain sterility and reduce unnecessary patient radiation.The interface is evolving beyond the mouse: Sherry sees gesture-based interaction as a more natural, immersive input method—moving us beyond traditional tools like keyboards and mice.Customer feedback drives innovation: From live demos to direct use-case discovery, Neural Lab adapts based on what real users need and how they react in context.AI can coach, not just compute: Sherry envisions AI-enabled coaching in sports, physical therapy, and even surgery—delivering expert guidance in real time, at scale.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode RecapSherry Chang shares how her journey from Intel technologist to founder of Neural Lab began with a desire to create immersive, meaningful technology—and a pivotal moment during the pandemic when gesture-based interaction suddenly became essential.02:14 – Guest Introduction: Sherry ChangBarry...

CES 2026 trends take center stage in this conversation with tech journalist Jon Cohen. You hear how AI has shifted from hype to practical, on-device use, why privacy now matters more, and which products feel close to real-world adoption.From the show floor in Las Vegas, Marc Aflalo sits down with Jon Cohen to unpack what CES 2026 actually delivered. AI is still everywhere, but the tone has changed. Companies now focus on local, on-device AI instead of cloud-first systems, driven by privacy concerns and faster processing power.Jon highlights two future-facing ideas that stood out. The first is a non-invasive breath sensor that aims to estimate blood glucose levels using molecular analysis. It is still in clinical trials, but the potential impact for people with diabetes or pre-diabetes is clear. The second is a new generation of exoskeletons designed for daily life, work environments, and aging in place, rather than extreme activity or sports.They also explore the rise of assistive and age-focused tech, the growing accessibility presence at CES, and why augmented reality glasses are evolving more quietly than expected. Jon shares insights on new smart glasses designs that address privacy concerns, the explosion of robots on the show floor, and even a blackjack-playing robot built for Vegas.The conversation wraps with hands-on impressions of the Clicks physical keyboard phone, nostalgia-fueled BlackBerry design cues, and a clever new audio concept from Soundcore that blends open-ear listening with active noise cancelling. Chapters0:01 – CES 2026 overview and AI maturity0:45 – On-device AI and privacy shift2:45 – Non-invasive glucose monitoring by breath4:44 – Exoskeletons for work and aging in place6:17 – Accessibility and age tech at CES7:00 – Smart glasses and privacy-first design8:20 – Robots everywhere at CES9:29 – AI ethics and public perception10:48 – Gesture control and wearable interfaces11:18 – Blackjack-playing robot in Las Vegas11:36 – Clicks keyboard phone hands-on impressions14:45 – Soundcore AeroFit Pro 2 audio conceptLike and subscribe for weekly coverage of tech, accessibility, and real-world innovation.

Healing doesn't always require effort — sometimes it begins in stillness. A simple gesture, a soft breath, the willingness to bring awareness to the places we've abandoned. In this episode of Toxic Silence, we're exploring the body's most ancient language — the quiet gestures, shapes, and postures through which emotion speaks when words fall away. This is the essence of Kriya, of Mudra, of movement as medicine.So many of us carry the residue of unspoken experience — the tension in a jaw that never got to shout, the collapsed chest of someone who learned to stay small, the throat that still fears being heard. Our bodies remember what our minds try to forget.When we shape our hands into a Mudra, when we sit and breathe into a posture, we're not forcing anything open. We're creating space — a quiet invitation for energy to circulate again, for emotion to move, for life to return to the places that have gone numb.My guest today is Rachel Zinman, an internationally renowned yoga teacher, author, and musician based in Byron Bay. With over 35 years of teaching experience, Rachel's love of mudras — sacred gestures that restore balance and calm — infuses her work with depth, stillness, and grace. Through her classes, writing, and music, she guides others to experience yoga as a living path toward harmony and awareness.instagram.com/rachelyogiYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@RachelZinmanYogaWebsite: https://rachelzinmanyoga.com/Toxic Silence Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1UsNwZQP74SbTAsin5aXr9?si=8N7qlTIgTGSKhHBDrIoGtg

On Day 4, we create an automatic, zero-friction anchor for focus. The moment you feel the urge to procrastinate, you need an instant counter-move. By integrating the Hakini Mudra—the Gesture of Concentration—you give your body a simple, non-verbal command to 'Lock in.' This physical cue significantly shortens the transition time from a distracted state to a powerful Deep Work block, making attention a predictable reflex. This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, "Rewiring Your Attention Span for Laser Focus & Deep Work," episodes 3409-3419. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: The 10-minute Friction Fighter When the craving hits, do not touch the device. Immediately perform The Neural Navigator Breath and assume the Hakini Mudra for 60 seconds. Set a mental or physical timer for 10 minutes. This challenge uses behavioral conditioning to increase your brain's craving tolerance. By intentionally delaying the dopamine hit, you weaken the immediate reward circuit, making high-value, sustained tasks (like Deep Work) feel less effortful and more naturally rewarding over time. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Welcome to Dopamine Detox: Rewiring Your Attention Span for Laser Focus & Deep Work! If you feel like your attention is constantly being held hostage—pulled between notifications, endless tabs, and the relentless urge to scroll—you are not alone. In our hyper-stimulated world, distraction isn't a moral failing; it's a chemical problem. Your brain has been systematically trained by technology to seek out the tiny, instant gratification hits of dopamine that low-value tasks provide. This constant craving leaves you exhausted, scattered, and stuck in the restless loop of the Default Mode Network (DMN), making true, high-quality concentration feel impossible. This week, we are fighting fire with Neuroplasticity. This 7-day series isn't just about trying harder; it's about giving your brain a complete reboot. We will introduce targeted, science-backed meditation tools that strategically decrease your brain's dependence on instant hits and build the myelin sheaths required for Deep Work. By the end of this journey, you will have moved from reacting to distraction to proactively commanding your focus. You will build an unbreakable internal system that allows you to bypass analysis paralysis, overcome the resistance of starting difficult tasks, and enter the elusive Flow State on demand. Get ready to transform your attention span from a liability into your most powerful competitive advantage. Day 1:  Release Fear Visualization Day 2:  Affirmation: "I am present, focused, and my attention is my superpower." Day 3:  Neural Navigator Breath Day 4:  Hakini mudra for focus Day 5:  Third Chakra for Clarity Day 6:  Mental Focus Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Jerry Jones has been fined $250,000 for the middle finger he directed at fans during the Cowboys-Jets game over the weekend, a league spokesperson told The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday. In other news, the architect of Texas' mid-decade redistricting plan said on Tuesday he did not use racial data to design the map that could net Republicans five seats in Congress. Adam Kincaid, the executive director of the National Republican Redistricting Trust, said he drew “most” of the 2025 map that targeted five congressional seats held by Democrats in the Dallas, Houston, Central and South Texas regions; singer Leon Bridges stood at the corner of Calhoun Street and Daggett Avenue in Fort Worth Tuesday, tugging on a rope that uncovered a newly-minted sign bearing his name; and Dallas-based Chili's Bar and Grill removed its longtime Skillet Beef Queso and White Skillet Queso in favor of a new cheese dip called Southwest Queso.  Unlike the Skillet Beef Queso, the Southwest Queso is vegetarian. Chili's was once a single location on Dallas' Greenville Avenue that opened 50 years ago, in 1975. It now operates 1,600 restaurants in 29 countries and two territories.

Your body knows before your mind can explain. We sat down with Jen to unpack how simple, intentional gestures can translate hard-to-name emotions into clear signals you can act on, turning anxious contraction into grounded expansion without forcing, fixing, or faking it. Her journey—from feeling “not smart” in test-driven classrooms to discovering kinesthetic and emotional intelligence—led to a somatic method that has helped thousands reclaim presence, confidence, and self-trust.Jen walks us through the Power of Gesture, a research-informed practice born on Zoom during the pandemic, where hands became a precise instrument for nervous system regulation and emotional clarity. You'll hear why bodyset complements mindset, how 40,000+ nerve endings in your hands act like a truth-telling interface, and what changes when we treat emotions as teachers rather than problems. We explore leadership as an embodied skill—vital for parents, educators, coaches, and executives—rooted in noticing contraction, honoring it, and choosing expansion on purpose.You'll also learn the GIFT framework: Ground to settle your system, Imagine the scene to access sensation, Feel through a fitting gesture, and Transform by linking that first state to an expansive second one. We dig into self-hop—the idea that you're not broken and don't need fixing—and what makes Your Body Is Speaking a different kind of mind-body book for somatic healing, emotional resilience, intuitive living, and women's leadership. If you've been carrying unprocessed grief, post-pandemic stress, or recurring self-doubt, this conversation offers practical tools you can use today.If this resonates, tap follow, share with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find these tools. Your body is speaking—ready to listen?BioJen Aks journey to leadership and embodiment work began as a self-conscious student, sitting in traditional classrooms where she felt invisible. She failed to fit into the education system's narrow definition of intelligence and dealt with crippling self-doubt because of it. Through decades of dance education and gaining a deeper understanding of diverse intelligences, Kinesthetic and Emotional, she rediscovered her body's wisdom and reclaimed her identity. It's her life's work to bring that same gift to you, so that you can live the radically honest and empowered life you deserve.  Jen is a Transformational Coach, Speaker, and Author of her new bestseller "Your Body Is Speaking"WebsiteSocial Media FacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokLinkedInWe hope you have enjoyed this episode.

1113. This week, we talk with linguist Lauren Gawne about her book "Gesture: A Slim Guide." We look at how different cultures gesture about abstract concepts like time and space, and how we unknowingly gesture from our left-to-right writing system. We also look at why pointing is often rude, how different cultures point in different ways, and whether animals gesture on their own.This episode was originally a bonus episode released in June for people who support the show, the Grammarpaloozians.
