POPULARITY
In the dynamic world of machining, efficiency and precision are paramount. Most of the machining allowance is removed during rough cuts. Therefore, increasing productivity at this stage is crucial for reducing the machining costs of the entire manufacturing process. Even with improved capabilities in precise forging, die-casting, injection moulding, and other workpiece production methods that allow for obtaining a workpiece very close to the part's final shape, a high metal removal rate during rough cutting continues to be an important factor in reducing total costs. ISCAR has consistently pushed the boundaries to provide solutions that meet the ever-evolving demands of manufacturing. One of ISCAR's standout innovations is the Fast Feed line of tools designed to enhance productivity while maintaining exceptional precision. Fast Feed tools by ISCAR are designed to operate at high feed rates, significantly reducing machining time and increasing productivity. The concept hinges on the principle of shallow depth of cut combined with high feed, allowing for rapid material removal without compromising surface finish or tool life. This approach is particularly beneficial in roughing operations, where the primary goal is to remove as much material as possible in the shortest time. ISCAR's Fast Feed tools are engineered with advanced geometries that optimise chip evacuation and reduce cutting forces. This results in less wear and tear on both the tool and the machine, extending their lifespan. The Fast Feed tools are suitable for a wide range of materials, including steels, stainless steels, cast irons, high-temperature superalloys (HTSA), and titanium. This versatility makes the tools an attractive option for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and mould and die, where diverse materials are often encountered. By allowing for higher feed rates, Fast Feed tools significantly reduce machining time. This efficiency results in cost savings and increased throughput, which are essential in high-volume production environments. While primarily focused on roughing, ISCAR's Fast Feed tools are also designed to achieve suitable surface finishes, minimising the need for secondary operations and further enhancing productivity. The combination of advanced cutting tool materials, wear-resistant coatings, and optimised geometries ensure that Fast Feed tools have a long tool life, even under the demanding conditions of high-speed machining. Fast Feed tools are making significant impacts across various industries. In aerospace, where difficult-to-cut materials like titanium and HTSA are common, these tools help address the challenges of machining tough materials. In the automotive sector, they enable manufacturers to meet the fast-paced production demands while maintaining high quality. The mould and die industry also benefits from reduced machining times and improved surface finishes, which are crucial for producing complex shapes with high precision. ISCAR offers a comprehensive selection of advanced cutting tools, including fast-feed turning and grooving tools. These tools are designed to enhance productivity, efficiency, and precision in various machining operations. Fast Feed Turning Tools (Fig.1) l High Feed Rates: These tools enable increased feed rates, thereby reducing machining cycle times. l Durable Materials: Constructed from high-quality materials to withstand high-speed machining conditions. l Precision Cutting: Engineered for accuracy, ensuring precise cuts with minimal tool wear. l Versatility: Suitable for a variety of materials and applications, offering great flexibility.

ISCAR also provides an extensive range of fast feed milling tools designed to significantly increase efficiency and productivity. These tools are specifically engineered to deliver high material removal rates and reduce cycle times in various milling operations. Fast feed (FF) milling cutters are a key factor in high feed milling (HFM) techniques. The cutter geometry, designed for efficient chip thinning, must ensure the correct distribution of the cutting force. There are two principal geometrical approaches. The first design requires the cutting edge of an FF milling cutter to be an arc of a circle. Another concept is based on using one or two straight edges that are chords of the arc. In both cases, the small cutting edge angle (usually 9-17°) meets the requirements of chip thinning and decreasing the total bending load on a tool. Ensuring the geometry of solid carbide fast feed endmills and replaceable milling heads demands the specific shape of a cutting edge, while in indexable milling, it may be provided by the appropriate location of an insert of even a simple profile. Although the introduction of innovative grades and advances in chip forming rake faces have improved progress in FF milling cutters, the essential element, the geometry, remains constant. If the cutting edge of an FF milling cutter is the arc of a circle (or the chords that approximate the arc), the cutting edge angle of the cutter is not a constant value but varies depending on the axial depth of cut from 0 to the mentioned 9-17°. In milling, the chip thickness is a function of the tool's cutting edge angle. Under the same conditions, the smaller the cutting edge angle, the thinner the chip. Therefore, the programmed feed should be increased correspondingly to produce chips of the required thickness. Features of ISCAR Fast Feed Milling Tools (fig.3) l High Feed Rates: These tools are designed to operate at high feed rates, allowing for faster machining processes and reduced cycle times. l Durable Structure: Made from high-quality materials that ensure durability and long tool life, even under demanding conditions. l Precision and Stability: It is engineered to provide precise and stable cuts, minimise tool wear, and improve the quality of the finished product. l Versatile Applications: It is suitable for a wide range of materials and applications and offers great flexibility in use. l Innovative Design: It incorporates advanced geometries and coatings to enhance performance and chip evacuation, reduce heat generation, and increase tool life.

Milling originated in the late 18th century and quickly became one of the primary machining technologies. Nowadays, it is easier to imagine any machine shop with milling operations on the shop floor; it's an essential process in manufacturing. The increasing demands of manufacturing drive this integral part of machining technology. However, there are specific aspects that uniquely impact the advancement of milling. We are witnessing significant changes in manufacturing that will have profound consequences on the development of milling directions. These changes are driven by various factors, such as the increasing accuracy of metal forming through precision investment cutting and precision forging, the widespread adoption of 3D printing, and the growing usage of new composite and sintered materials. Furthermore, there is a need to enhance productivity in machining hard-to-cut superalloys and titanium grades, and the strong focus on electric and hybrid cars in the automotive industry contributes to these changes. In addition, advancements in multi-axis machine tools have opened new possibilities for the precise machining of complex parts and enabled the implementation of new cutting strategies to improve productivity. In modern technological processes, there is a tendency to significantly reduce the machining stock intended for milling operations while simultaneously increasing the requirements for surface finish. Therefore, the advancement in milling is driven by the need for higher productivity, precision and sustainability in milling operations. Consequently, the main developments can be characterised as follows: Fast metal removal focuses on boosting the metal removal rate (MRR) to achieve higher productivity by significantly increasing cutting speed or feed per tooth. This is achieved through techniques such as high-speed milling (HSM) and, in rough operations, high-feed milling (HFM). Precision milling provides higher accuracy in milling operations. The utilisation of multi-axis machining centres characterises multi-axis milling to enable complex milling operations. Adaptive milling aims to develop intelligent systems that can adapt to changing conditions during machining. Sustainable milling strives to reduce the environmental impact of milling operations. It involves developing eco-friendly cutting fluids, recycling and reusing materials, and using energy-efficient machine tools and milling cutters. Success in these areas relies on the synergy of several key components: machine tools, cutting tools, and CAM systems. High-speed milling necessitates machine tool technologies capable of handling exceptionally high rotational velocities and advanced cutting materials and coatings for milling tools. Simultaneously, enhancing the precision of milling operations requires milling cutters with tighter tolerances and improved control systems and linear motor drives. In the case of multi-axis milling, the breakthrough lies in effectively controlled axes movement, along with the application of appropriate cutting geometries for milling tools. On the other hand, adaptive milling incorporates innovations such as using state-of-the-art monitoring systems, high-sensitive sensors, and efficient algorithms to optimise cutting data and tool paths in real-time. Moreover, sustainability advancements require energy-efficient milling strategies that employ suitable machine tools, cutting tools, and eco-friendly coolant techniques. Indexable milling reflects the advancements that feature exchangeable cutting inserts in machining operations. a) Advanced insert materials are an ongoing process to improve the cutting materials for indexable milling inserts, including the development of advanced carbide grades, ceramics, and ultra-hard cutting materials. b) Coating technologies with continuous R&D focus on new coatings to improve wear and heat resistance while enhancing lubricity. c) Progressive cutting geometry optimises cutting geometry and chip forming topology of inserts to improve cutting action and diminish cutting forces and chip flow in milling operations. d) Effective cutting material uses an intelligent insert design to provide maximum indexable cutting edges without reducing cutting capabilities. In addition, the distinct course on smart manufacturing requires the integration of digitisation into milling operations and tools. Regarding tools, digital twins and software applications have already become a ‘must' feature of a comprehensive tool range. How can cutting tool producers rise to the challenge? Which milling tool solutions will provide the right answer to the emerging trends? Is the field of cutting tool manufacturing, often considered conservative in metalworking, capable of delivering a timely response to current demands? The recent advancements from ISCAR provide greater insights into these subjects. High-speed trochoidal milling involves following a curvilinear tool path to maintain a constant load on the cutting edge to eliminate spikes in load during material entry. This strategy is efficient for milling deep slots, pockets, and cavities. Additionally, trochoidal milling has shown excellent results when working with challenging materials such as high-temperature superalloys. The CHATTERFREE EC-E7/H7-CF is a new family of multi-flute endmills for trochoidal milling techniques. The family's geometric design includes different helix angles and variable angular pitches to improve dynamic behaviour. These endmills are available in a range of length-to-diameter ratios (Fig. 1). Machine tools allow highly productive milling of aluminium alloys at extreme spindle speeds, reaching up to 33,000rpm. To meet this challenge, ISCAR has developed 90° indexable milling cutters that accommodate large inserts for a depths of cut up to 22mm (Fig. 2). The cutters have been designed to eliminate insert radial displacement, which may occur due to the high centrifugal forces generated during very high rotational speeds. High-feed milling (HFM) has become a widely adopted method for efficiently rough machining complex and flat surfaces. ISCAR offers a comprehensive range of HFM products to meet the demands of various industrial applications. Recently, the range has been expanded with new additions. The LOGIQ-4-FEED family of HFM tools, featuring specific bone-shaped inserts (Fig. 3), now includes tools with larger inserts. These new products significantly broaden the application range, particularly in the mould and die industry's high-feed milling of large-sized cavities. Another addition is NEOFEED, a family of HFM tools with double-sided inserts, providing eight cutting edges for improved cost-effectiveness. Advancements in multi-axis machine tools and CAD/CAM systems have given rise to precise milling of complex shapes with minimal machining stock, using segment or barrel-shaped endmills. ISCAR's program for these endmills encompasses three design concepts: a solid carbide design, an exchangeable MULTI-MASTER head, and a one-insert approach (Fig. 4). When milling high-temperature superalloys, cutting ceramics can substantially increase cutting speeds, reaching 1000m/min. ISCAR's latest ceramic tools include ceramic solid endmills and indexable milling cutters with double-sided round ceramic inserts. The double-sided design aims to maximise the utilisation of ceramic material grades, such as ‘black' ceramic, whisker-reinforced ceramic, and SiAlON (a silicon-nitride-based ceramic). These selected examples serve as good illustrations of the main directions of advancement in milling tools. As new demands arise, new solutions are required, and these new challenges will fuel the search for innovative tool designs.

The introduction of the ISCAR HELIMILL in the 1990s marked a significant milestone in milling tools. It changed the design of milling tools with indexable inserts, establishing a new approach that would help to shape the industry. The breakthrough was achieved using a parallelogram-shaped carbide insert, featuring a helical cutting edge formed by the intersection of the insert's helical side and shaped top surfaces (Fig. 1). The HELIMILL concept offers several advantages. Firstly, the consistency of the rake and relief angles along the insert's cutting edge, when mounted on a tool reduces cutting force variations and ensures a smooth cutting action. Secondly, the uniformity of the insert's cutting wedge enhances its strength. Lastly, the helical cutting edge's proximity to the imaginary cylinder generated by a rotating tool improves accuracy compared to the straight edge found in previous-generation milling inserts. These advancements have elevated milling performance. Over the years, continuous improvement has led to significant changes in the HELIMILL inserts. The helix of the cutting edge has become more aggressive, and the top surface topology has become more intricate. Combined with advanced carbide grades, these new designs have ushered in a new level of performance. However, the parallelogram insert shape limits the number of indexable cutting edges to two. To maximise the efficiency of cemented carbides, a new round of insert development was initiated. The successful adaptation of the helical cutting edge to triangular inserts addressed this limitation. The triangular insert concept not only provides three cutting edges but also offers additional benefits. When compared to other shapes with equal cutting-edge lengths, the triangular shape provides a wider central area. This allows for an increase in the central bore size, enabling the use of a clamping screw with a larger thread. As a result, the insert securing is strengthened, contributing to the overall durability of the milling tool assembly. Additionally, the triangular shape enhances the ramping-down cutting capability. Overall, the introduction of the ISCAR HELIMILL and its subsequent advancements have revolutionised the milling tool industry. The use of helical cutting edges and triangular inserts has significantly improved performance, accuracy and durability, pushing milling capabilities to new levels. A proximate successor to the HELIMILL is the HELI-3-MILL, a family of milling tools introduced by ISCAR that features triangular indexable inserts (Fig. 2). The advantages of the ‘helical triangle' highlight why this family has gained popularity in the market. However, it is important to note that this does not mean the triangle shape will completely replace the traditional parallelogram contour with helical cutting edges soon. The parallelogram shape still possesses a competitive edge. Paradoxically, the narrow width of the parallelogram-shaped insert, which is considered a drawback when compared to the triangular shape, also offers certain advantages. Firstly, a narrower insert allows for an indexable design suitable for smaller tool diameters. Secondly, this insert geometry reduces the depth of the chip gullet, strengthening the cross-section of the tool body. This feature is particularly important for extended flute cutter designs where higher strength and rigidity of the body are crucial. The parallelogram insert structure also permits increased corner radii. Additionally, the classical shape is well-suited for high feed milling (HFM) inserts, which can be mounted in existing pockets, effectively transforming a 90-degree tool into an efficient HFM cutter. Moreover, the ‘helical parallelogram' has a smaller overall length compared to the ‘helical triangle' for the same cutting length. Therefore, it would be premature and incorrect to dismiss classical parallelogram inserts. As a result, the development of 90-degree indexable milling cutters harmoniously combines both approaches, utilising both triangular and parallelogram-shaped inserts. While the triangular insert concept dominates modern designs, the parallelogram insert principle remains relevant. The HELIMILL platform continues to be updated with new advantageous products. ISCAR's recently developed products relating to milling cutters with parallelogram-shaped inserts demonstrate that the traditional design approach remains effective and capable of meeting the demands of modern manufacturing. Milling high-temperature superalloys and titanium (ISO S group of applications), as well as difficult-to-cut austenitic and duplex stainless steel (ISO M group), presents challenges. Effective coolant supply, particularly pinpointed high-pressure cooling (HPC), can significantly reduce the heat load on the cutting edge, enhancing lubrication and chip removal. This leads to higher cutting data and enables larger radial engagements, resulting in a higher metal removal rate (MRR). Moreover, HPC facilitates the production of tighter and curled chips, allowing for tool designs with smaller chip gullets and higher tooth density. Taking these factors into consideration, ISCAR has expanded its HELI2000 family (the latest version of the HELIMILL) by introducing new tools that incorporate an HPC option within the tool body. The design of these tools has been optimised using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). They are available in both integral-body configurations and as relatively small-sized exchangeable heads with indexable inserts, which are compatible with ISCAR's modular systems MULTI-MASTER and FLEXFIT (Fig. 3). HELI2000 integrates the HELIMILL and HELIPLUS families, combining their latest developments into a single portfolio. This includes the introduction of two new highly efficient carbide grades: IC5600, designed for machining steel (ISO P group), and IC716, specifically tailored for cutting titanium. Additionally, the insert range has been expanded with new cutting geometries. This includes inserts with a high positive chipformer for milling titanium, chip-splitting cutting edges for productive roughing, and other designs. Furthermore, the range now includes inserts with reinforced cutting edges for high feed milling of hard materials up to HRc 60 hardness (ISO H group, Fig. 4). These new products are also part of ISCAR's HELIALU family, which consists of milling tools with parallelogram-shaped inserts for machining aluminium alloys (ISO N group). The expansion of this family includes indexable endmill heads with threaded adaptations for both MULTI-MASTER and FLEXFIT systems, providing the option for high-pressure cooling (HPC). The screw-in design configuration of the heads significantly enhances the customisation capabilities of HELIALU tools, allowing for a wide range of MULTI-MASTER and FLEXFIT shanks, adaptors, extensions, and reducers to be utilised. Therefore, the development of the ‘helical parallelogram' has not ceased, and the traditional HELIMILL continues to gain momentum. This development follows a gradual upward helix, revisiting past turns but at a more advanced stage.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Steve Abel from EPAM, a dedicated, results-oriented executive with a proven hands-on track record and superior ability to build highly effective teams to deliver success within all levels of an organization. EPAM is one of the best-kept secrets, voted one of the leading and fastest-growing information technology companies in the world. EPAM today leads the charge in the field of global digital and physical transformation and digital platform engineering services. The company has over 61,000 employees across 6 continents and 50 countries. In this episode, Sabine and Steve cover three main topics: Changes in the way innovation is delivered today, repairing broken processes with the right engineering mindset, and the requirements for building the business of tomorrow. KEY TAKEAWAYS The way technology solves problems today is from point solutions to point solutions. This is a flawed way to solve the technology problem and build highly effective business models. Imagine if there were tools that had 95% of what a business needs to operate. You would only buy things that are available as part of the packages. As an insurer, you would be able to gain benefits as you would need fewer specialists to determine whether to buy, build, or partner. Pull widgets that could be your integration engine. Could be cheaper than what is available, and you could rebuild in a bespoke way that is unique. I was in a stable job at KPMG. When the pandemic hit, I worked on a project with no real choice but to deliver tech assets quickly. Then I decided to do some investigating and discovered EPAM. They loved my idea and then thought about new technology in new ways to solve the client's problem with purpose in a different way. EPAM is multi-sectors, and I sit within the insurance business unit. How do startups grow? One option is to use cloud-based assets that ease the creation of reusable assets. This is a profound change in how people think about technology and business; cloud-based tooling, data mash-up, etc. We can unlock the power of these tools and bring them together as a unified landscape. Insurance carriers are struggling with geospatial data (for instance) because of their legacy systems and the way each carrier goes about integrating data into systems. Each carrier wants to know if they are getting unique information from you, but they don't need the dashboard or data very often. They want to process an algorithm that gives them an answer. BEST MOMENTS ‘A lot of commercialized software is not fit for purpose. Still, businesses operate thousands of spreadsheets. This is not right for the employees and gives poor customer service.'‘I love to wake up and ensure that customers do every day what they do best with others.'‘If you have not thought on how to do so. Hire an expert to think through the problem in a new way for you. You will get to the optimum outcome faster and likely cheaper too.'‘Get the right tools and get the approach right. I can ensure you, you will be impressed them.'

Dr. Carole Keim MD takes listeners through vaccines in today's episode. She explains everything from how vaccines are created to common myths and misconceptions about them. She then details each baby and childhood vaccine, and what disease each prevents.Dr. Keim breaks down how vaccines work and what criteria they must meet in disease to be effective. She explains the four main types of vaccines and lays each vaccination out in a clear manner, covering what age your baby or child will be when they receive the vaccine and how the immune response works. These vaccines are proven to protect your baby against everything from tetanus to mumps to pertussis and more.This episode will cover: How vaccines workCriteria to create a vaccineThe 4 different types of vaccinesCommon myths or misconceptions about vaccinesSpecific vaccines (all routine childhood vaccines)Total number of vaccinesCommon side effects and red flags, how to treat How vaccines work: 00:44The purpose of vaccines is to trigger an immune response faster and with less harm than the original disease.The immune system is a lot like a microscopic team of superheroes, made up of white blood cells, antibodies, the complement system, and a few others. These superheroes fight villains such as bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. If they cannot fight them fast enough, the villains will multiply and cause symptoms of disease. Vaccines give your superhero team information about what the villains look like, so they can recognize them as soon as they enter the body, and fight them off quicker and easier.Vaccine criteria: 01:26In order to make a vaccine, certain conditions must be metIt has to be effective. We must be able to become immune to the pathogen; diseases like RSV and HFM are ones we can catch multiple times. Chickenpox is one that you become immune to after catching it once.The pathogen must not be able to mutate faster than the vaccine can be given - we do flu boosters annually because the flu virus mutates about that often. HIV and common cold mutate too fast for a vaccine to be developed.The vaccine must be cost-effective; it has to be cheaper to prevent the disease than to treat itThere are 4 main types of vaccines: 02:31Inactivated (killed pathogens)Live attenuated (weakened pathogens)Toxoid (a piece of what's inside the pathogen)mRNA vaccines Inactivated vaccines 03:44Most common typeThe bacteria or viruses in the vaccine are killed, so your immune system can safely learn to recognize the pathogen that it is trying to fight off. These vaccines do not have the potential to cause actual disease. What they do is cause the immune system superheroes to practice fighting the villains, kind of like practicing on dummies, which may cause mild signs of illness - fever, sore muscles, crankiness, or other symptoms. Examples: IPV (polio), HPV (human papillomavirus), HiB (Haemophilus influenzae B), pneumococcus (Streptococcus pneumoniae), meningococcus (Neisseria meningitidis), and Hepatitis A and B vaccines.Live attenuated vaccines 04:02Made from bacteria or viruses that have been exposed to chemicals that make them weaker than the natural or “wild type” bacteria or virus. Since these pathogens are not killed completely, your superheroes aren't just practicing on dummies, they are actually fighting the weakened villains. So it is possible to have symptoms of the disease, but milder. Some people with weakened immune systems may not be able to fight them off, and can get the actual disease. People taking steroid medications or immune suppressants, or who have HIV or other immune deficiencies should consult a doctor about whether it is safe to receive these vaccines. Examples: oral polio vaccine, MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella), Varicella zoster (chickenpox), and rotavirus vaccines.Toxoid vaccines 04:55Made from just part of the pathogen, and protect against the kinds of bacteria that cause symptoms after the toxins inside them are released. These toxin-carrying bacteria are like villains carrying around a bottle of poison, and the toxoid vaccine gives the superheroes the poison to sample and build up resistance to it. Example: DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis).MRNA vaccines 05:23Newest typemRNA is like a copy of instructions. These give your immune system something like a sewing pattern to print out and make the dummies for your body to fightExample: some COVID vaccinesMyths and misconceptions about vaccines: 05:45Many parents have concerns about vaccinating their children. It only takes one serious reaction to call into question the safety of vaccines. And it has been so long since the vaccine-preventable diseases have run rampant that we in the United States don't fully understand the scope of what is being prevented. Here are some of the top concerns that I have heard from parents, and the truth behind them.Aluminum. There is aluminum in vaccines, but the amount is far less than babies get from other sources. The total amount of aluminum that babies get from vaccines in the first 6 months is 4.4mg. Breastfed babies consume 7mg, formula-fed babies consume 38mg, and babies on soy formula consume 114mg of aluminum in the first 6 months of life. Consuming aluminum vs. having it injected in a vaccine looks the same to the body, so the tiny amount of aluminum in vaccines will not harm your babyAntigens. An antigen is any microscopic substance that has the possibility to elicit an immune response. Babies are exposed to over a trillion antigens in the first year that naturally occur in the environment. The entire vaccine series that children receive today contains just over 150 antigens. A young baby's immune system can easily recognize these few antigens and make antibodies to the diseases without getting sick.Autism. It has been proven that vaccines do NOT cause autism. The age that children first start showing signs and can be tested for autism is 15-24 months. This is the same age that children receive booster vaccines, so it is understandable that some parents think they are related. Long-term protection. Vaccines will protect a person for just as long as if they got the original disease. So a person who had chickenpox as a child is just as protected from getting it again as a person who has received the chickenpox vaccine. Some people do not seroconvert (develop antibodies to that disease) - that depends on their immune system and is not a failure of the vaccine itself.Mercury. There used to be a preservative called thimerosal in vaccines. That preservative (which contains mercury) has been removed from all vaccines in the US that children receive. The only vaccine that still contains thimerosal is the adult flu vaccine.Unnatural exposure. Some people worry that getting exposed to a disease through an injection is not the same as getting it “naturally” by being exposed to a sick person. This is not true; any disease will get into your bloodstream, which is where it is recognized by the body, and once in there the body has no idea how it got in. So getting an injection looks exactly the same to your immune system as getting the disease from a sick person.Doctors DO NOT get paid to vaccinate childrenVaccines are NOT a punishment for children who are behaving badlySpecific vaccines: 10:47Hep B - 0, 2, 6 mos. Hepatitis B is a viral infection that can be passed from mom to baby through the placenta or during delivery. 90% of babies born with HepB will develop chronic infection and are at risk of liver cancer later in life.DTaP - 2, 4, 6, 15 mos, 4 years. Tdap - age 11, every 10 years. DTaP has more diphtheria, Tdap has more tetanus. Bacterial infections. Diphtheria causes severe sore throat and enlarged tonsils, and can block the airway from swelling/tonsils being so enlarged. Tetanus makes spores that live in soil; any penetrating wound could have tetanus in it (nail/thumbtack, dog or cat bite) and tetanus is not killed by antibiotics so it must be prevented. Pertussis is whooping cough and causes babies less than a year old to stop breathing. Everyone who takes care of the baby should be current on their TDaP (within 10 years). Polio - 2, 4, 6 mos, 4 years. Polio is a virus that attacks nerves and causes paralysis. Sometimes it's minor, and sometimes it's the diaphragm that's affected and they stop breathing. There is no specific treatment for polio.HiB - 2, 4, 6, 12-18 mos. HiB (haemophilus influenzae B) bacterial infection that affects children less than 5 years, and especially those under 1 year of age. It used to cause severe infections like epiglottitis, sepsis, pneumonia, and meningitis. PCV - 2, 4, 6, 12-18 mos. PCV = pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, pneumococcus is another name for streptococcus pneumonia, which is a kind of strep that gets into the bloodstream and causes sepsis, pneumonia, and meningitis. PCV has 13 strains of strep in it right now.Rotavirus - 2, 4, 6 mos. Viral infection that causes severe diarrhea and dehydration in babies. Hep A - 12 and 18 mos. Hep A is a type of food poisoning, there's no specific treatment. MMR - 1 and 4 years. Measles causes high fever, rash, and can cause brain damage, hearing loss, and death. Mumps causes parotitis (infection of salivary glands), but in boys also causes orchitis (inflammation of testicles) and can lead to sterility. Rubella is a fever and rash; more dangerous to unborn babies, causes miscarriages and birth defects.VZV - 1 and 4 years. Varicella Zoster virus (chickenpox) causes cold symptoms, fever, and an itchy and painful rash in children, and shingles in adults. VZV in pregnancy causes miscarriages and birth defects.MCV - 11 and 16 years. Meningitis A, C, W, Y are viruses that cause inflammation around the brain that develops quickly and can be fatal. HPV - 11 years. Human papilloma virus causes warts and dysplasia and can lead to cancer of the mouth, throat, anus, cervix, and penis. Currently 9 strains of HPV in the vaccine. Flu: recommended annually COVID: recommendations are still evolvingVaccines that are available but not given routinely: MenB, PPSV23, Dengue, Typhoid, japanese encephalitis, yellow fever, rabiesTotal numbers of vaccines: 22:351 at birth (Hep B)2 mos: DTaP, polio, HiB, Hep B, PCV, rotavirus - 1 or 2 combo vaccines, PCV and rota = 2 or 3 shots plus an oral vaccine4 mos: DTaP, polio, HiB, PCV, rotavirus - 1 combo plus PCV and rota = 2 shots and one oral6 mos: DTaP, polio, HiB, Hep B, PCV, rotavirus - 1 or 2 combo vaccines, PCV and rota = 2 or 3 shots plus an oral vaccine6+ mos: flu vaccine annually12-18 mos: 2 doses Hep A, 1 of DTaP, HiB, PCV, MMR, VZV. 5-7 shots depending on combos.4-6 years: DTaP, polio, MMR, VZV, typically given as 2 combo vaccines11 years: Tdap, MCV, 2 doses HPV16 years: MCV21+ years: Tdap every 10 years; booster if you have a wound and it's been less than 5 years, booster while pregnant9 shots and 3 oral before 1 year of age, 5-7 shots from age 1-2, 2 shots age 4-6, 4 at age 11, 1 at age 16 = 21-23 total shots before adulthood. 18 flu shots. Common vaccine reactions: 23:53Birth: nothing; sometimes redness/swelling2-6 mos: redness and swelling (local reaction), can be as much as the entire thigh and still be considered normal. Low grade fevers.12-18 mos and 4-6 years: muscle soreness, MMR and VZV cause fevers, VZV sometimes causes rash, other vaccines can cause local reactions11yrs: muscle soreness, local reaction with Tdap and MCV, fainting with HPV16 yrs: local reaction from MCVTdap boosters: muscle sorenessFlu, COVID: flu-like symptomsIt is NOT normal to have a body rash or vomiting after vaccines; those are signs of allergyLarge local reactions and muscle soreness can be treated with cool compresses (wet washcloth) and/or acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Fever or flu-like symptoms: acetaminophen or ibuprofenI DON'T recommend pre-medicating your child before vaccinesIf your child has an adverse reaction to a vaccine, you should report it to VAERS (vaccine adverse event reporting system). Remember that VAERS is like Yelp for vaccines, so take that about as seriously as you would a Yelp review.All of this information is also in The Baby Manual book, which is available for purchase. Remember it is always okay to call your doctor or emergency services if you have concerns about your baby's health.

We have officially entered a bear market. In this episode, Jason and Tyler discuss the 5 things you need to do to survive and thrive in any bear market. They discuss how long it will take for the market to recover, what can diminish your returns in a bear market and how to avoid it, what your mind is like in a bear market, and the main thing you have to know before changing any of your investments. Tune into this episode to learn: How checking your investment accounts directly affects your gains The best way to invest in every market How long it will take for the market to recover Timestamps [00:39] Episode overview: What's going on in the stock market? [01:33] Is there something we could have done to avoid a bear market? [02:26] The worst time to figure out your risk tolerance. [07:04] “I don't have time for the market to recover” [08:20] How not diversifying can kill your returns (examples). [13:30] How often you should check your investment accounts. [17:22] How to THRIVE (not just survive) in a bear market. 3 Key Highlights Know your risk tolerance and align it with your portfolio. There are many different tests you can take to find out your risk tolerance. You also need to figure out how much risk or how little risk you need to take to reach the goals you've set for yourself. Diversification is not sexy, but it gets the job done. When you diversify your investments, you increase your chances that something you're invested in does well. For example, cryptocurrency makes up around 2% of the world market, you should keep that in perspective when balancing and diversifying your portfolio. The market is on sale right now.

In this episode, Jason Gabrieli and Tyler Reedman discuss whether it's a good time to buy a home given rising home prices. Most of us have a tendency to overanalyze our homebuying decisions and ultimately treat homebuying as an investment. In the conversation, they explain why you shouldn't treat homeownership as an investment and they provide better metrics that help you decide whether it's a good time for you to buy a home. Tune into this episode to learn: ● How to decide whether or not to buy a home in this market ● Whether home prices will fall and how they have fallen in the past 35 years ● Why buying a home can help you beat inflation long-term. Timestamps [00:49] Episode overview: homeownership [01:07] Is it a good time to buy a house? [02:46] Should you buy a house even if interest rates are high? [06:56] The BEST hedge against inflation for average Americans. [08:45] Should you wait for home prices to drop before buying a home? [13:32] How long you should live in your home before selling it 3 Key Highlights Just 30% of people in the US believe that now is a good time to buy a house. This is the first time this statistic has gone below 50% since 1978. Even if you buy a home with a high-interest rate, it is important to remember that interest rates can possibly go down. If they do, you can refinance your mortgage. If you don't need to particularly buy a home right now, there is some merit to waiting until prices drop.

Ex-car dealership owner Tom Reedman joins Jason to discuss the state of the car industry these days. They discuss why car prices are unbelievably high at the moment, the secret to getting a good price for a car even when they're really expensive, what to make sure to negotiate when you're closing on a car at the dealership and what isn't worth negotiating, and many other car buying tips straight from an ex-car dealership owner. Tom Reedman operated his family business Reedman World Center. He had a 55-year professional career in the automotive industry, 30 of which were spent in the family business. The Center was accredited by the Philadelphia Inquirer as the original mall concept of selling cars. His uncle started Reedman World Center after World War II and was a pioneer in the automobile business. Reedman World Center was sold in 2004 and it became Reedman Toll Auto World. Tune into this episode to learn: Whether you should lease your new car Why vehicle prices are so high at the moment What to make sure to negotiate when buying a car How to know if you've got a good lease Timestamps [00:30] Episode overview: Who is Tom Reedman of the Reedman World Center? [02:23] Are gas prices unprecedentedly high? OR What did people do when gas prices were really high in the past? [04:15] How the car business is performing against inflation OR How much people are paying above sticker price to buy a car (and what are the rules?). [06:41] What to do if you absolutely have to buy a car in a bad market? OR The secret to getting a good price for a car in a bad market. [09:16] Should you lease or buy your car? [13:16] Why you have to know the market value of your car before you trade it. [15:48] What to do when a car dealership tries to upsell you (and what's negotiable?). [19:20] Best car buying tip from an ex-car dealership owner. [20:29] A good lease program vs. a bad lease program. 5 Key Highlights During the gas crisis of the Carter years, people were trading their Cadillacs for Chevies to save money on gas costs. They were trading expensive cars for cheap ones without considering that gas prices would normalize again. People are paying 20% above the sticker price to buy their cars from dealerships. The only rule dealerships have to follow is to list their cars at market value. If you want to buy your own car at the end of its lease, make sure to initiate the process for buying that car at least 90 days before the lease expires. If you wait until the lease is over you will have to pay fair market value for your own lease. Don't buy warranties on a car you're leasing unless you plan on keeping your vehicle. It's much cheaper to buy warranties upfront. What to negotiate in a car dealership: having the warranty and maintenance as part of the car price. Don't negotiate superficial things like fancier mats, you can get those anywhere.
