In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Larry Swanson, a knowledge architect, community builder, and host of the Knowledge Graph Insights podcast. They explore the relationship between knowledge graphs and ontologies, why these technologies matter in the age of AI, and how symbolic AI complements the current wave of large language models. The conversation traces the history of neuro-symbolic AI from its origins at Dartmouth in 1956 through the semantic web vision of Tim Berners-Lee, examining why knowledge architecture remains underappreciated despite being deployed at major enterprises like Netflix, Amazon, and LinkedIn. Swanson explains how RDF (Resource Description Framework) enables both machines and humans to work with structured knowledge in ways that relational databases can't, while Alsop shares his journey from knowledge management director to understanding the practical necessity of ontologies for business operations. They discuss the philosophical roots of the field, the separation between knowledge management practitioners and knowledge engineers, and why startups often overlook these approaches until scale demands them. You can find Larry's podcast at KGI.fm or search for Knowledge Graph Insights on Spotify and YouTube.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Knowledge Graphs and Ontologies01:09 The Importance of Ontologies in AI04:14 Philosophy's Role in Knowledge Management10:20 Debating the Relevance of RDF15:41 The Distinction Between Knowledge Management and Knowledge Engineering21:07 The Human Element in AI and Knowledge Architecture25:07 Startups vs. Enterprises: The Knowledge Gap29:57 Deterministic vs. Probabilistic AI32:18 The Marketing of AI: A Historical Perspective33:57 The Role of Knowledge Architecture in AI39:00 Understanding RDF and Its Importance44:47 The Intersection of AI and Human Intelligence50:50 Future Visions: AI, Ontologies, and Human BehaviorKey Insights1. Knowledge Graphs Combine Structure and Instances Through Ontological Design. A knowledge graph is built using an ontology that describes a specific domain you want to understand or work with. It includes both an ontological description of the terrain—defining what things exist and how they relate to one another—and instances of those things mapped to real-world data. This combination of abstract structure and concrete examples is what makes knowledge graphs powerful for discovery, question-answering, and enabling agentic AI systems. Not everyone agrees on the precise definition, but this understanding represents the practical approach most knowledge architects use when building these systems.2. Ontology Engineering Has Deep Philosophical Roots That Inform Modern Practice. The field draws heavily from classical philosophy, particularly ontology (the nature of what you know), epistemology (how you know what you know), and logic. These thousands-year-old philosophical frameworks provide the rigorous foundation for modern knowledge representation. Living in Heidelberg surrounded by philosophers, Swanson has discovered how much of knowledge graph work connects upstream to these philosophical roots. This philosophical grounding becomes especially important during times when institutional structures are collapsing, as we need to create new epistemological frameworks for civilization—knowledge management and ontology become critical tools for restructuring how we understand and organize information.3. The Semantic Web Vision Aimed to Transform the Internet Into a Distributed Database. Twenty-five years ago, Tim Berners-Lee, Jim Hendler, and Ora Lassila published a landmark article in Scientific American proposing the semantic web. While Berners-Lee had already connected documents across the web through HTML and HTTP, the semantic web aimed to connect all the data—essentially turning the internet into a giant database. This vision led to the development of RDF (Resource Description Framework), which emerged from DARPA research and provides the technical foundation for building knowledge graphs and ontologies. The origin story involved solving simple but important problems, like disambiguating whether "Cook" referred to a verb, noun, or a person's name at an academic conference.4. Symbolic AI and Neural Networks Represent Complementary Approaches Like Fast and Slow Thinking. Drawing on Kahneman's "thinking fast and slow" framework, LLMs represent the "fast brain"—learning monsters that can process enormous amounts of information and recognize patterns through natural language interfaces. Symbolic AI and knowledge graphs represent the "slow brain"—capturing actual knowledge and facts that can counter hallucinations and provide deterministic, explainable reasoning. This complementarity is driving the re-emergence of neuro-symbolic AI, which combines both approaches. The fundamental distinction is that symbolic AI systems are deterministic and can be fully explained, while LLMs are probabilistic and stochastic, making them unsuitable for applications requiring absolute reliability, such as industrial robotics or pharmaceutical research.5. Knowledge Architecture Remains Underappreciated Despite Powering Major Enterprises. While machine learning engineers currently receive most of the attention and budget, knowledge graphs actually power systems at Netflix (the economic graph), Amazon (the product graph), LinkedIn, Meta, and most major enterprises. The technology has been described as "the most astoundingly successful failure in the history of technology"—the semantic web vision seemed to fail, yet more than half of web pages now contain RDF-formatted semantic markup through schema.org, and every major enterprise uses knowledge graph technology in the background. Knowledge architects remain underappreciated partly because the work is cognitively difficult, requires talking to people (which engineers often avoid), and most advanced practitioners have PhDs in computer science, logic, or philosophy.6. RDF's Simple Subject-Predicate-Object Structure Enables Meaning and Data Linking. Unlike relational databases that store data in tables with rows and columns, RDF uses the simplest linguistic structure: subject-predicate-object (like "Larry knows Stuart"). Each element has a unique URI identifier, which permits precise meaning and enables linked data across systems. This graph structure makes it much easier to connect data after the fact compared to navigating tabular structures in relational databases. On top of RDF sits an entire stack of technologies including schema languages, query languages, ontological languages, and constraints languages—everything needed to turn data into actionable knowledge. The goal is inferring or articulating knowledge from RDF-structured data.7. The Future Requires Decoupled Modular Architectures Combining Multiple AI Approaches. The vision for the future involves separation of concerns through microservices-like architectures where different systems handle what they do best. LLMs excel at discovering possibilities and generating lists, while knowledge graphs excel at articulating human-vetted, deterministic versions of that information that systems can reliably use. Every one of Swanson's 300 podcast interviews over ten years ultimately concludes that regardless of technology, success comes down to human beings, their behavior, and the cultural changes needed to implement systems. The assumption that we can simply eliminate people from processes misses that huma...

This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Amanda Randles, who is a computer scientist and biomedical engineer at Duke University in the US. In a conversation with Physics World's Margaret Harris, Randles explains how she uses physics-based, computationally intensive simulations to develop new ways to diagnose and treat human disease. She has also investigated how data from wearable devices such as smartwatches can be used identify signs of heart disease. In 2024, the Association for Computing Machinery awarded Randles its ACM Prize in Computing for her groundbreaking work. Harris caught up with Randles at the 2025 Heidelberg Laureate Forum, which brings prizewinning researchers and early-career researchers in computer science and mathematics to Heidelberg, Germany for a week of talks and networking. Randles began her career as a physicist and she explains why she was drawn to the multidisciplinary research that she does today. Randles talks about her enduring love of computer coding and also reflects on what she might have done differently when starting out in her career.

Zelltherapie, Immuntherapie oder Impfung - die Krebsmedizin entwickelt sich stetig weiter. Es gibt keine Erkrankung, in die mehr Forschungsmittel gesteckt wird, als der Krebs. Und doch steigen die Zahlen der Betroffenen. Im vergangenen Jahr waren es über eine halbe Million Menschen, bei einem Zuwachs von zehn Prozent gegenüber 2024. Auch für das Jahr 2026 zeichnet sich diese Entwicklung weiter ab. In vielen Fällen kann der Krebs gestoppt oder gar überwunden werden, doch es bleiben die Menschen, die trotz intensiver Behandlung nach kurzer Zeit sterben. In Deutschland ist Krebs die zweithäufigste Todesursache nach dem Herzinfarkt. Wie weit hat sich die Behandlung entwickelt und wie weit die Prävention? Was kann man selbst tun, um eine Erkrankung zu vermeiden? Darüber sprechen wir mit Prof. Dr. Dirk Jäger, Onkologe am Nationalen Centrum für Tumorerkrankungen in Heidelberg, mit Dr. Susanne Weg-Remers vom Deutschen Krebsforschungszentrum, mit Peter Clausing vom Pestizid Aktions Netzwerk und mit der Sportwissenschaftlerin und Yogatrainerin Miriam Wessels.

This episode is shared from Critical Care, a podcast produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace.As Europe ramps up defence investment in the wake of the Ukraine crisis, the spotlight is turning to how nations sustain their growing fleets. In this episode of Critical Care, produced by Shephard Studio in partnership with Collins Aerospace, we travel to Heidelberg, Germany — home to a regional sustainment hub that's proving crucial for fast, local support across Europe and beyond.We hear from Holger Eckstein, Michael Mayer and Michael Nelson – leaders within Collins' sustainment operations – as they explain how the Heidelberg service centre is handling everything from Eurofighter and Tornado repairs to complex electronics for helicopters and land platforms. They reveal how deep regional expertise, long-term partnerships with primes like Airbus and BAE Systems, and close ties to international customers are transforming the speed and scale of military readiness.From reducing reliance on transatlantic repair cycles to enabling more responsive support for customers like the Royal Saudi Air Force, this episode explores how Heidelberg's model of forward sustainment is setting a new benchmark. We also look at how Europe's fragmented defence landscape is starting to shift towards more unified, collaborative approaches — not just for procurement, but for long-term support.What emerges is a clear message: rapid, reliable sustainment isn't a nice-to-have. It's essential for operational credibility in a fast-changing world.Coming up next: we head to the Netherlands to see what happens when Collins' engineers go embedded with the Royal Netherlands Air Force, working side by side on the hangar floor.

Der in Heidelberg lebende umtriebige Künstler Klaus Staeck ist vor allem bekannt für seine politisch-satirischen Plakate, mit denen er seit den 1970er Jahren das Weltgeschehen kommentiert. Nebenbei ist er Verleger, Grafiker und Rechtsanwalt und von 2006 an war er knapp zehn Jahre lang Präsident der Akademie der Künste in Berlin. Die Stadt Heidelberg ehrt den 88jährigen mit einer Ausstellung in der Friedrich Ebert-Gedenkstätte, die Einblicke in sein Atelier gibt.

Unsere beiden heutigen Gäste kommen aus unterschiedlichen Branchen. Sie haben sehr unterscheidliche Lebenswege hinter sich und auf den ersten Blick nicht viel gemeinsam. Der eine hat in Hamburg Politikwissenschaft und Journalistik studiert, war viele Jahre Geschäftsführer einer Digitalagentur und ist heute als Mitgründer der GROW Agency in Hamburg unterwegs als Digital- und Markenstratege, als leidenschaftlicher Lead-Verfechter, als Vater, AI-Aktivist und überzeugter Demokrat. Der andere hat nach einem Management-Traineeprogramm und seinem Studium der Politikwissenschaft, Pädagogik und Soziologie in Bonn, Heidelberg und Mainz eine beeindruckende Laufbahn im HR-Bereich hingelegt: über das Institut für systemische Beratung in Wiesloch und Stationen bei Telekommunikations- und IT-Unternehmen bis hin zur Rolle als CHRO und COO bei einem der führenden Anbieter für berufliche Weiterbildung in Deutschland. Vor mehr als 15 Jahren hat er zusammen mit seiner Frau potenzialraum gegründet, um jungen Menschen ein stärkenorientierte Brücke ins Leben nach der Schule zu bauen. Heute ist er Geschäftsführer der lebezeit Gruppe und leidenschaftlicher Demokrat. Kennengelernt haben sich die beiden über unser New Work Masterskills Executive Programm und schnell gemerkt, dass sie ein Thema besonders verbindet: Die Frage, wie wir echte Inklusion möglich machen. Nicht nur in Unternehmen, sondern schon in Kitas, Schulen, Vereinen und Alltagsbegegnungen. Und wie sich unsere Haltung zu Vielfalt, Teilhabe und menschlicher Entwicklung ganz konkret im Alltag zeigt. Seit mehr als achteinhalb Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. Wir haben in mehr als 500 Episoden mit fast 700 Persönlichkeiten darüber gesprochen, was sich bereits verändert hat und was sich weiter verändern muss. Wie kann Inklusion gelingen, wenn wir sie nicht nur als politische Forderung, sondern als persönliche Haltung verstehen? Warum fängt gelebte Vielfalt nicht im Diversity-Report, sondern im Kinderzimmer und Klassenzimmer an? Und was braucht es, damit Unternehmen wirklich alle Potenziale sehen – auch jenseits normierter Lebensläufe und Karrieremodelle? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Daher suchen wir weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näherbringen. Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich, wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei „On the Way to New Work“, heute mit: Dominic Scheppelmann und Fred F. Schmidt.

For most teams, the second half of conference schedules have begun. If results weren't crazy enough, they likely could be soon. On Thursday's Hoopsville, we chat with programs who are having solid seasons to this point. How will their second half of conference schedules work out? We continue to chat with programs that don't always get the national attention, but are still having spectacular seasons. Find out what is working so well for them and why we could be talking about them, still, in March. Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline: - Noah Cleveland & Ron Rose, No. 12 Illinois Wesleyan sophomore forward & men's coach - Brian Barnes, Russell Sage men's coach - Brittany Whalen, Immaculata women's coach - Katherine Auguste, Colorado College women's coach We also check in on the news and notes around Division III, including the latest with Heidelberg women's basketball (supposedly). And Dave's '2-Cents' on the continued push for PPV web streaming, the expectations that can't be met and the viewership being lost. Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com from the WBCA Studios.

"Nicht nur Heidelberg und München!" – eine Rezension von Dirk Kaesler - Literaturkritik.de. Das Ehepaar Hübinger verortet Max Weber in Berlin(Hördauer ca. 11 min)Wien ist eine Stadt, die Erinnerung als Architektur baut, in Fassaden, Institutionen, Familiennamen – und in den Baulücken, die Vertreibung hinterlässt. Lange bevor Österreich Österreich hieß, setzt Olaf Links Geschichte(n) der Juden und Antisemiten in Wien zwischen 1848 und 1938 zu einem historischen Vorspann an, Ostarrichi um das Jahr 1000.Mit welcher deutschen Stadt verbindet man den Universalgelehrten und Soziologen Max Weber (1864-1920) am ehesten? Bisher waren es zwei deutsche Städte, die bei dieser Frage miteinander konkurrierten: Heidelberg und München.Obwohl er seinen ersten Lehrstuhl für „Nationalökonomie und Finanzwissenschaft“ an der Großherzoglich Badischen Albert-Ludwigs-Universität zu Freiburg erhielt und vor seiner Zeit in München an der Universität Wien die Lehrkanzel für „Politische Oekonomie“ vertrat, sind Freiburg und Wien aus diesem Konkurrenzspiel ausgeschieden.

In dieser Folge wird's richtig praktisch – und es geht um dein Geld.

Kai Schattner ist eine Cuvée aus spontaner Begeisterung und tiefer Sachkenntnis, die den Weinservice erdet und zugleich zu einer Kunstform erhebt. Als einer der großen Sommeliers Deutschlands perfektioniert er nicht nur seine Weinkurationen, sondern die gesamte Inszenierung von Wein im Restaurant – von der Flasche bis zum Gaumen, vom ersten Gefühl bis zum letzten Nachhall des Genusses. Essen und Trinken sind für ihn keine getrennten Disziplinen, sondern Ausdruck einer Beziehung zwischen Küche, Winzer, Gast und Sommelier. Geboren in Heidelberg, einer Stadt, die von Weinbergen umarmt wird, fand Kai früh seinen Weg in die Welt des Weins – jedoch mit einem klaren Ziel: Weinkellner in einem der legendärsten Restaurants der damaligen Zeit zu werden, dem Nassauer Hof in Wiesbaden mit dem vom Gastronomie-Genie Hans-Peter Wodarz geführten Sterne-Restaurant „Die Ente vom Lehel“. Schon früh verstand er, dass Wein nicht allein über Wissen funktioniert, sondern übers Herz und die Fähigkeit, seine Liebe zum Produkt für den Gast spürbar zu machen. Er verantwortete einen Weinkeller – nein, eine Weingalerie – von 70.000 Flaschen, die damals erstmals in Deutschland mit dem Grand Award des Wine Spectator ausgezeichnet wurde. Hier zeigte sich sein Verständnis von Business und Verantwortung: Geld, Struktur und Organisation waren Mittel zum Zweck, niemals Selbstzweck. „Der Wein hat mich gefunden“, sagt er – und tatsächlich scheint es, als hätte das Schicksal ihn in den Rheingau geführt, wo er heute lebt und wirkt. 2003 zum Sommelier des Jahres gekürt, setzte Kai Schattner Maßstäbe, die die Branche nachhaltig prägen. Seine Kunst liegt in der Perfektion des Services: nicht nur empfehlen, sondern erzählen, nicht nur servieren, sondern Beziehungen stiften. Seit 2013 als selbstständiger Berater tätig, moderiert er Events, ist Weinkritiker, hält Seminare und berät Restaurants, Unternehmen und Winzer. Selbst in einer Zeit, in der Wein zunehmend zum Lifestyle avanciert, mahnt er zur Authentizität. Er trägt den deutschen Riesling über den Atlantik, referiert in China und Amerika, verbindet das Traditionelle und das Moderne – und verliert dabei nie den Respekt vor dem Handwerk, dem Ursprung und dem Herz des Weines. Kai Schattner ist ein Brückenbauer unseres Weinlandes, einer, der Genuss nicht als Pose, sondern als gelebte Haltung versteht. Über drei Jahrzehnte Erfahrung haben ihn zu einem Visionär gemacht – vom Sternerestaurant zur unabhängigen Beratung. Seine Arbeit, seine Moderationen und Auszeichnungen inspirieren eine Generation, Weinservice als Hingabe zu begreifen. Kai Schattner perfektioniert die seltene Kunst, Wein lebendig zu machen – und bleibt dabei ein Bollwerk der Qualität in Zeiten des Wandels.

While a massive winter storm blanketed much of the country, and Division III, with a mess ... it has gotten every stormier on basketball courts around DIII. On a special Tuesday edition of Hoopsville, we try and shovel our way through an absolute insane week of basketball. The new Top 25s had a lot of movement and some of the teams we talk to this week are the reason. Hear from one program who knocked off the number one team and conference rival, another whose squad is now in control of their conference due to other upsets, a program back in the national conversation with a similar style of player, and another quietly playing it's best basketball in years. Guests appearing on the Hudl Hoopsville Hotline: - Joe Reilly, No. 19 Wesleyan men's coach - Andy Winters, No. 21 Otterbein men's coach - Julia Duggan, Lebanon Valley women's coach - David Chadbourne & Jaycie Christopher, Southern Maine women's coach and senior guard Also hear from both national committee chairs on topics including dual gender hosting this season, women's tournament game times, championship weekend game times, who will play on Friday or Saturday for the men's Round of 16, and their reactions to the NPI system and whether they would adjust things. Dave also has his '2-Cents' on the idea of dual hosting. And we will go over other news and notes including the ongoing saga involving Heidelberg women's basketball. Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com from the WBCA Studios.

"If we can sell it in Japan, we can sell it also in other countries." "The first thing I believe is honesty, especially in difficult situations." "The word "musukashi" is not allowed anymore in our company." "When an engineer is working at the customer and he cannot solve the problem… even if time is up, he would not walk away." "You need to give them… a safety rope." Joerg Bauer is the Representative Director of Heidelberg Japan, leading a business that provides industrial printing and packaging solutions across software, machinery, and consumables. Trained in electronics and data processing, he joined Heidelberg early and built his career at the intersection of engineering, customer service, and operational transformation. He first came to Japan as a young engineer—curious about Japanese manufacturing and culture—and expected a three-to-five-year stint that became a decade. After returning to Germany for several years, he relocated again to Japan in 2008 and has remained since, spending the majority of his professional life in-country. Over nearly four decades with Heidelberg (including his student period), Bauer progressed from technical roles to sales support, then into major integration work as a project manager during corporate merger and SAP rollout, later becoming IT business manager. Back in Japan, he led initiatives such as introducing an online shop for consumables—initially resisted internally as "not possible in Japan"—before moving through service leadership and sales leadership. In November 2019, he became the top executive in Japan, drawing on long-term relationships, practical bilingual experience, and a clear view of how global standards must be delivered through local Japanese expectations. Heidelberg is not a desktop-printer brand; it is an industrial backbone for companies producing packaging, books, and brochures—machines that can stretch 30–40 metres, weigh dozens of tonnes, and require deep integration of mechanics, electronics, and software workflows from PDF to professional output. In Japan, where customer expectations for precision and service are famously demanding, Joerg Bauer describes the market as a proving ground: if a solution succeeds here, it can succeed almost anywhere. That mindset shapes not just product quality, but operating tempo—such as rapid call-back expectations and a service culture that must feel uncompromisingly Japanese to the customer. Bauer's leadership story is inseparable from cultural translation. He sees genuine overlap between German and Japanese monozukuri—high-precision engineering and pride in build quality—yet emphasises that working methods diverge. In his view, Japanese competitors historically excelled by targeting operators' pain points and incrementally automating "the hardest parts" of a process. Heidelberg's approach leaned more holistic, sometimes slower, aiming for a unified system rather than a patchwork of quick fixes. That contrast becomes a leadership lesson: Japan often rewards kaizen and immediate usability, while global headquarters may prioritise system architecture and standardisation. The leader's job is to bridge both without triggering organisational paralysis. He also treats Japan's "zero defect" instinct as both strength and tension. Perfection is culturally persuasive, but defining "perfect" is complex—especially in areas like colour, where human perception varies and measurement systems (LAB values) can create a more rational definition of quality. Bauer frames this as an executive's communication challenge: aligning printing companies, their clients, and internal teams around what quality means in measurable terms, without dismissing the cultural preference for flawless outcomes. Internally, he is candid about the real constraint: uncertainty avoidance. When teams say "muzukashii," they often mean risk, status loss, channel conflict, or fear of being linked to failure. His response is practical: find early adopters, run controlled trials, protect participants from reputational downside, and then scale what works. As the top executive since 2019, he anchors trust in honesty—especially during difficult periods involving financial pressure and restructuring—while resisting the temptation to hide behind "Japan is different" as an excuse. For Bauer, effective leadership in Japan is not softness; it is clarity, preparation (nemawashi), and a consistent safety rope that makes innovation feel survivable. Q&A Summary What makes leadership in Japan unique? Leadership in Japan is uniquely shaped by consensus-building, nemawashi, and a deep preference for harmony that reduces surprises. Bauer's experience suggests that outcomes improve when stakeholders are aligned before formal decisions—similar to ringi-sho logic—because it lowers execution risk and face-loss. The practical implication is that leaders must invest earlier in communication, even when it feels like "over-communication" to global executives. Why do global executives struggle? Bauer highlights isolation as a core failure mode: arriving as president without language, relationships, or a trusted internal power base leaves leaders cut off from the real data and informal context. Teams may answer only what is asked, not what is relevant. Without the ability to ask precise questions—and verify through multiple sources—leaders can drift off-track while believing they are informed. Is Japan truly risk-averse? Bauer treats "risk aversion" as uncertainty avoidance rather than laziness. "Muzukashii" often signals fear of failure, channel conflict, or reputational cost. The workaround is not motivational speeches; it is risk design: small pilots, visible executive sponsorship, and protection for participants. In decision intelligence terms, leaders must reduce perceived downside, increase clarity, and make learning safe. What leadership style actually works? His emphasis is direct: honesty in difficult situations, plus a clear rationale for change. He can be "very German" in being frank and direct, but he pairs that with structured buy-in and visible modelling of how to communicate with headquarters. He argues that near the customer, the organisation must behave Japanese—language, documents, yen-based business norms—while headquarters discussions sometimes require unusually direct boundary-setting. How can technology help? In Bauer's domain, technology is not abstract transformation theatre; it is operational leverage. Software workflows, automation, measurement standards (such as colour metrics), and modern service systems can reduce ambiguity and speed decisions. Applied well, digital twins and predictive maintenance concepts can also shift service from reactive "fix it now" pressure to planned reliability—supporting both customer expectations and internal resource planning. Does language proficiency matter? Bauer implies language is a major accelerator for trust and accuracy. Without Japanese proficiency, leaders rely on interpreters who may lack business judgment, or on English speakers who may not be organisational power players. Language competence improves question quality, speeds nemawashi, and reduces misalignment between intent and interpretation. What's the ultimate leadership lesson? Bauer's core lesson is that leadership is bridge-building under uncertainty: earn trust through honesty, reduce fear with a safety rope, and translate between cultures without letting either side become an excuse. In Japan, sustainable performance comes from combining consensus with clarity—bringing people along while still insisting on profitability, accountability, and forward movement.

"Am Boden" – Uwe Kullnick spricht mit Marc Lunghuß – Hörbahn on StageLesung (Hördauer ca. 36 Minuten), Gespräch (Hördauer ca.59 Minuten)BEHAGLICHKEIT UND UNBEHAGEN Der Roman verknüpft eine Familiengeschichte mit der Geschichte eines einst beliebten – jetzt verpönten – Bodenbelags: -> Der Teppichboden: Symbol für Wärme, Weichheit, Geborgenheit. Ab den fünfziger Jahren Siegeszug des zugeschnittenen und von Wand zu Wand verlegten Teppichbelags, Inbegriff westdeutscher Wohnlichkeit. In den Neunzigern dann der Niedergang. Teppichboden gilt fortan als Milbennest und Dreckschleuder. Die Familiengeschichte: Eine Kleinfamilie westdeutschen Durchschnitts. Mutter Hausfrau, Vater Teppichvertreter, die Kinder erwachsen und aus dem Haus. Dann der freie Fall: Der Vater verstirbt. Der Roman spielt in den sechs Tagen, die zwischen Tod und Beerdigung liegen. Ohnmacht, Abwehr, schon immer schwelende Konflikte. Der Zustand: bodenlos. »Ein schönes Heim bewahrt das Glück« (Karstadt-Teppichwerbung 1953) IM CITROEN AUF DER FLUCHT ZUM VATER Der Sohn irrt im Citroen seines Vaters auf den Straßen Niedersachsens herum. Der Vater ist eben erst verstorben, der Sohn ist auf der Flucht. Aber nicht vor der Polizei oder vor einer unerwünschten Erbschaft – sondern vor der eigenen Trauer. Sein Leben lang hat der Sohn den Vater für das freundliche Wesen und die weiche Teppichware verachtet, mit denen dieser hausieren ging. Hielt ihn deshalb für einen Verlierer, der in einer rücksichtslosen Gesellschaft das perfekte Opfer abgab. Doch mit jedem Kilometer seiner scheinbar ziellosen Fahrt kommt der Sohn dem Vater näher, und Verachtung entpuppt sich als tief empfundene Liebe.Marc Lunghuß, geboren 1974 in Gehrden.

It's Thursday, January 22nd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Chinese-American Christians pray for those in China Chinese-American Christians are praying for their persecuted brothers and sisters back in China. Earlier this month, Harvest Chinese Christian Church in Los Angeles held an event called “Fasting Prayer Meeting for Persecuted Churches in China.” The event comes shortly after Chinese authorities detained the leaders of Early Rain Covenant Church. The congregation, like many “unregistered” churches in China, faces relentless persecution. International Christian Concern commented, “Please pray for these house church members in China, especially those who have been imprisoned or are missing after the police raids.” 1 Corinthians 12:26 says, “If one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.” China's birth rate plunged to a record low in 2025 Speaking of China, the country's birth rates plunged to a record low in 2025. New data from China's National Bureau of Statistics found there were 7.92 million births last year, down 17% from 2024. The birth rate in 2025 was 5.63 per 1,000 people. Meanwhile, the death rate rose to 8.04 per 1,000 people. Despite China's recent attempts to incentivize families to have children, the population has now fallen for the fourth consecutive year. In Genesis 1:28, God commanded, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the Earth and subdue it.” British Christian nurse vindicated for calling a man “Mister” In the United Kingdom, a National Health Service hospital recently dropped its case against a Christian nurse. Jennifer Melle worked at St. Helier Hospital in south London. She faced suspension after referring to a man, pretending to be a woman, as “Mister.” Listen to comments she made after her vindication. MELLE: “I am deeply relieved and grateful to hear that St Helier [Hospital] has confirmed it would no longer take further action against me. This has been an incredibly long and painful journey.   “Today, I want to give thanks, first and foremost, to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who has sustained me every step of the way.” Young Canadians are planning to vote conservative Young adults in Canada are planning to vote conservative in the country's next election. A survey by Abacus Data found 50% of Canadians aged 18 to 29 would vote for the Conservative Party. Only 27% of that demographic would vote for the Liberal Party. The strongest support for the Liberals comes from people over 60. A decade of liberal polices has led to higher living costs, higher inflation, and higher taxes. Trump: “I will not use force” to get Greenland Yesterday, U.S. President Donald Trump addressed the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland.  Notably, he announced that the United States would not use force to acquire Greenland. TRUMP: “We probably won't get anything unless I decide to use excessive strength and force, where we would be, frankly, unstoppable. But I won't do that. Okay. Now everyone's saying, ‘Oh, good!' “That's probably the biggest statement I've made because people thought I would use force. I don't have to use force. I don't want to use force. I won't use force.” President Trump also announced he will not be imposing tariffs on Denmark over the acquisition of Greenland. He wrote on Truth Social, “We have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region.” Arrests coming for Minneapolis leftists who invaded church service The Trump administration is investigating anti-ICE protesters who disrupted a house of worship in Minneapolis on Sunday. Kristi Noem, the Department of Homeland Security Secretary, wrote on X, “Arrests coming. … The First Amendment protects speech and peaceful assembly – not rioting. … These agitators will be held accountable.” The Department of Justice is also investigating the incident at Cities Church. Major snowstorm hits East Coast to Rocky Mountains The National Weather Service is expecting a significant winter storm to hit a large portion of the U.S. starting Friday. Heavy snow, sleet, and freezing rain is forecast all the way from the southern Rockies to the East Coast.  Much of the U.S. is already experiencing dangerously cold weather. Over 40 million people were under cold weather alerts as of Tuesday. Even parts of Florida are under alert. 463rd anniversary of Heidelberg Catechism And finally, this week marks the 463rd anniversary of the Heidelberg Catechism. The Protestant catechism was commissioned by Frederick III, the ruler of Germany's most influential province of Palatinate. The purpose of the catechism was for instructing the youth and for guiding pastors and teachers The catechism was the product of two young Protestant scholars—Zacharius Ursinus and Caspar Olevianus. The catechism was approved by a church synod in Heidelberg, Germany and published in German on January 19, 1563. It would become the most widely used catechism of the Reformation period.  The catechism's opening question reads, “What is your only comfort in life and death?” The answer begins, “That I am not my own, but belong—body and soul, in life and in death—to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.” Romans 14:8 says, “For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.”  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, January 22nd, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

Pastor Mike focuses on the importance and benefit of using catechisms, creeds, and confessions as supplements to studying the Bible. He argues that these resources, such as systematic theology or a confession, help believers "get their arms around" the vast content of the 66 books of the Bible by providing concise summaries and instruction.While affirming that God's Word is the final, supreme authority (sola scriptura), he highlights how catechisms protect the church from "celebrity pastors" by establishing a shared, time-tested theological foundation, and provide a means for unity among different reformed groups (like the "three forms of unity": Dort, Heidelberg, and Belgic Confession).

Brain-computer interfaces are moving out of the lab and into real medical use. In this episode of The Michael Shermer Show, Michael Shermer talks with Dr. Matt Angle, founder and CEO of Paradromics, a neurotechnology company developing one of the most advanced high-data-rate brain implants in the world, similar to Neuralink. These devices record activity from individual neurons, making it possible to restore speech in people with paralysis, reconnect the brain to external devices, and potentially treat chronic pain and neurological disorders with far greater precision than existing approaches. Angle explains why progress in neuroscience has been limited not by biology, but by data—how much information we can actually read from the brain, and how fast. He describes how patients who can no longer speak may soon communicate fluently using only brain signals, why invasive implants can sometimes be safer than long-term drug treatments, and what it takes to bring a brain implant through FDA approval and into the clinic. The conversation also touches on the larger questions raised by this technology, including autonomy, consciousness, and what happens when the boundary between brain and machine begins to blur. Matt Angle is the Founder and CEO of Paradromics, a neurotechnology leader developing the world's most advanced and clinically viable brain-computer interface (BCI) platform—bridging human thought and digital capability. Paradromics' BCI platform records brain activity with unmatched precision, capturing data at the level of individual neurons. This advanced technology enables the decoding of vast amounts of brain data, opening the door to next-generation treatments for paralysis, chronic pain, addiction, mental health conditions, and more. With the power of AI, this platform has the potential to radically shift how healthcare providers approach some of the most challenging medical conditions. Angle earned his PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Heidelberg, followed by postdoctoral research at Stanford University. Paradromics engineered its first clinical product, the Connexus® BCI, received two FDA Breakthrough Device Designations, and performed the first-in-human neural recording in May 2025. The company is now preparing to launch a clinical trial in early 2026, pending regulatory approval.

Have you ever questioned the very nature of existence? Have you wondered how it all started and what secrets the universe holds? For most of us, these matters are beyond our comprehension. And yet, these are questions scientists at CERN - the world's leading research body for particle physics - are currently exploring. Dr. Heuer discusses with host Dr. Katrina Burrus the experiences and challenges to which he now attributes his successful leadership and achievements within the scientific community. Who is Rolf-Dieter Heuer? Dr. Heuer studied physics at the University of Stuttgart. He then obtained his PhD in 1977 at the University of Heidelberg under Joachim Heintze. His post-doc studies include the JADE experiment at the electron-positron storage ring PETRA at DESY, and from 1984, at the OPAL experiment at CERN, where he also became a spokesperson of the OPAL collaboration for many years. Having been offered a full professorship for experimental physics at the University of Hamburg, Heuer returned to DESY in 1998. In 2004, he was appointed DESY's Research Director. In December 2007, the CERN research council announced that Heuer will take office as CERN's Director General starting 1 January 2009.

Nel secondo episodio di questa serie di speciali intitolata: "Il lato nascosto delle sostanze psicoattive", Francesca e Luca raccontano la storia affascinante e ambigua della caffeina: una minuscola molecola vegetale nata come veleno e diventata una delle sostanze psicoattive più diffuse e socialmente accettate al mondo. Dalle sue origini evolutive come difesa chimica delle piante, passando per gli studi sugli insetti impollinatori e il ruolo della dipendenza, ripercorriamo il cammino che ha portato il caffè dalle alture dell'Etiopia alle caffetterie del mondo arabo e dell'Europa moderna.Tra storia, chimica e neuroscienze, l'episodio esplora come la caffeina abbia contribuito a plasmare la società occidentale, favorendo la nascita di spazi di confronto intellettuale, il pensiero illuminista e nuovi ritmi di lavoro indipendenti dal ciclo naturale del sole. Ma dietro l'illusione di un'energia “a costo zero” si nasconde un prezzo biologico tutt'altro che trascurabile.Scopriamo come la caffeina interferisca con l'adenosina, alteri profondamente la qualità del sonno — in particolare il sonno profondo — e contribuisca a un debito cronico di riposo, con potenziali conseguenze su salute mentale e fisica. Un episodio che invita a guardare con occhi nuovi una delle abitudini più quotidiane e a chiederci se l'energia che prendiamo in prestito oggi non sia, in realtà, un conto da pagare domani.Fonti:   ·      Wright, G.

Alles beginnt mit einem rätselhaften Anruf einen Tag vor Weihnachten: Der Heidelberger Kinderarzt Dr. Udo Frederking bittet seine Tochter zuhause, ihm seine Scheckkarte in die Praxis zu bringen. Wenig später sind drei Menschen tot und ganz Heidelberg rätselt, was dahintersteckt. In dieser Folge spricht Philipp mit der Moderatorin und DJane Larissa Rieß, die selbst in Heidelberg aufgewachsen ist und das Opfer kannte. +++ Produzent und Host: Philipp FleiterMischung und Schnitt: Christoph Scheidel - 79 SoundRedaktionelle Mitarbeit: Lea Jager+++ Alle Rabattcodes und Infos zu unseren Werbepartnern findet ihr hier: https://linktr.ee/verbrechenvonnebenan +++ Tickets für die Ohrenzeugentour gibts hier: Philipp Fleiter Tickets online kaufen und einfach selber drucken.

Many leaders in the healthcare system and academic medicine, by default, manage their day through transactional leadership. However, as we learn in this week's episode of the Faculty Factory Podcast, there may be a better way. We are thrilled to welcome Martin Zeier, MD, visiting us from Germany this week on the podcast to discuss transformational leadership. Dr. Zeier leads the Division of Nephrology at the University of Heidelberg in Germany. He recently traveled to the United States and attended the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Nephrology, which took place in Houston. You can learn more about the University of Heidelberg here: https://www.nierenzentrum-heidelberg.com Transformational leadership helps us build trust between one another, which is one of its core principles and plays a key role in mentoring the next generation of leaders. This leadership style can strengthen our teams to advance our institutions and the missions we serve. It also challenges us to lead through intellectual stimulation, because academic professionals are not at their best without the opportunity for growth. “I have always been curious about how I could build and enhance teams and how I could improve as a medical professional and leader,” Dr. Zeier stated at the interview's outset. His own intellectual curiosity over the years served as an impetus for him to study organizational psychology in his advanced studies, as he also shared with us.
