At my monthly Ask Me Anything Webinars,  I always get questions about hormone therapy- when to start, when to stop, if the dose should be changed as women get older, and what to do if someone continues to have symptoms or continues to bleed…  In this episode, Dr. Risa Kagan and I answer submitted questions.  We start by briefly running through the established indications for starting menopausal hormone therapy (MHT), and then Dr. Kagan and I discuss the “what ifs” of hormone therapy.   Do you have to wait for 12 months without a period before starting MHT? If someone is taking birth control pills for control of perimenopause symptoms, at what point should they go off? And can they immediately transition to MHT or do they need to take a break and make sure they are no longer making estrogen? A  woman with severe hot flashes is having all day, all night hot flashes- how long is it going to take to get some relief?  Does it matter if it is oral or transdermal as far as the onset of action?  What are the chances of getting 100% relief?   If someone has started MHT but is still having flashes, how long should they wait before adjusting it?  What is the best starting dose if someone has severe flashes? High or low? A woman wrote in that she has been using a 0.75 patch, but continues to have severe flashes.  She got a serum level, and it is 10. Her doctor is reluctant to increase her dose. What would you tell her? A woman has tried four different protocols and has nuisance bleeding with all.  She had an ultrasound and biopsy, and it was all normal. She wants to continue MHT, but is tired of the bleeding. She wants to know which protocol is the least likely to cause bleeding An internist told a woman that after 5 years, it is time to go off her MHT.  What about if she is primarily taking it for hot flashes- how likely is it that her hot flashes will return?  What about if she is primarily on it for bone health (known osteopenia) and joint pain-? What about if she is primarily taking it for sexual benefits? (Libido, lubrication, orgasm) ? What about if she is primarily taking it because she is worried about dementia A woman decided to go off HT since she was only taking it for hot flashes and is now 10 years out. Her manicurist told her that she should taper; otherwise, her flashes will come back. Her gyne says, stop. What does Dr. Kagan say? A 60 year old woman started estrogen when she had a hysterectomy and ovary removal. She was told by her internist that there is no way she will still be having hot flashes in her 60s, and therefore no reason to continue her estrogen. Is that correct? What is the likelihood that she will still be having hot flashes in her 60s or 70s?  The next question is from a woman who increased her oral estradiol to 2 mg to get rid of her flashes,  but is still taking her original Prometrium dose 100 mg. Is that enough to protect the lining of her uterus? When do you increase it? A question from a Substack reader- “I used estradiol gel for 8 years at the start of menopause. I decided to stop it and did so for 3 years; however, my hot flashes (sleep, mood, etc) were relentless and violent. I decided to start again after a 3-years hiatus and at the age of 65. I feel so much better. Is this a problem having stopped and then started again a few years later?”  How can you tell the effectiveness of the HRT you're taking (other than no more hot flashes?) I still feel lack of motivation, low libido, joint aches and I'm so much slower running (1 min+/mile).  (What this really comes down to, is what are realistic expectations for what HT will do?)  How long can a postmenopausal woman stay on testosterone, estrogen and Progesterone?  Let's say a woman has been using a .05 estradiol patch but her skin is really irritated and has decided to try the spray instead.  What is the equivalent dose? A woman with a hysterectomy who is taking estrogen alone has been taking a 1 mg estradiol pill. She has decided to switch to conjugated equine estrogen since she would like breast protection.  Is that correct thinking? If she is going to make the switch, what is the equivalent dose?  A 51 year old is no longer having hot flashes but wants to continue her transdermal estrogen since she has low bone mass and is worried about progression to osteoporosis. What is the minimum dose of estradiol to ensure that she is getting maximum bone protection?  Many questions came in about initiating hormone therapy after age 65...

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Rita Black (@shiftweightmastery), a clinical hypnotherapist and weight management expert, to explore how self hypnosis can transform your habits, health, and overall mindset. Rita shares her personal journey of quitting smoking and breaking free from emotional eating through hypnosis and how she has helped thousands do the same. We dive into the science behind the subconscious mind, the difference between hypnosis and meditation, and how identity shapes your habits, beliefs, and even your physical health. Whether you are trying to change a behavior, reprogram limiting beliefs, or shift your mindset around fertility and well being, this episode will show you how to harness your mind's power to create lasting change. Key Takeaways: How hypnosis works to bypass the conscious mind and rewire habits at the subconscious level. The difference between meditation and self hypnosis and why the latter is "meditation with a mission." Why identity is the foundation of transformation and how it shapes behavior and physiology. How subconscious beliefs can affect fertility, weight, and other health outcomes. Simple daily self hypnosis and gratitude techniques to prime your brain for positive change. Why quitting smoking or vaping is less about willpower and more about identity and subconscious programming. Guest Bio: Rita Black, C.Ht.

Can you use vaginal estrogen and systemic hormone therapy?Absolutely — and most women actually need both.If you're still experiencing:• dryness or burning• painful sex• tearing when you wipe• urinary urgency/frequency• recurrent UTIs…it's not you, and it's not that your hormones “aren't working.”It's that systemic estrogen doesn't fully treat Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM).Here's what the research shows:✔ Up to 84% of women experience GSM✔ 20–30% of women on systemic HT still need vaginal estrogen✔ 50–70% benefit from using bothLocal vaginal therapy directly restores the vulvar and vaginal tissue.You deserve comfort, pleasure, and confidence again.Relief is absolutely possible.

Rejoignez la communauté iWeek et soutenez-nous sur patreon.com/iweek !Voici l'épisode 256 d'iWeek (la semaine Apple).iPhone Fold : une avancée majeure signée Apple à un prix exorbitant ?Enregistré en streaming, mardi 25 novembre 2025 à 18h30, enregistrement accessible en direct sur X, Twitch, LinkedIn et YouTube et via le lien spécial réservé à nos soutiens Patreon. Désormais, eux seuls auront la possibilité de suivre le stream du mardi soir en direct et de participer au chat. Quant au replay vidéo, sans le bonus, il continuera d'être disponible pour tous sur YouTube.Présentation : Benjamin Vincent, journaliste, producteur et présentateur de Les Voix de la Tech avec la participation de Fabrice Neuman (consultant tech pour les PME et contributeur à "Comment ça marche") et Elie Abitbol, ex-président des Apple Premium Resellers en France.Au sommaire de cet épisode 256 : Apple est bien parti pour tenir ses délais à propos du premier iPhone pliant qui devrait être annoncé à la rentrée 2026. Les rumeurs laissent entendre qu'une ligne de fabrication serait en place avec la perspective d'une première production de 100 prototypes... qui bénéficierait d'une avancée majeure signée Apple en ce qui concerne la fameuse pliure souvent (très) visible et ou perceptible sur les smartphones pliants. La mauvaise nouvelle de la semaine, c'est la nouvelle estimation du prix de cet iPhone Fold qui pourrait s'établir à 2.399 $ HT, soit entre 2.400 et 2.700 € TTC selon nos estimations à nous.Egalement au programme : le joli coup de Google qui a réussi à rendre AirDrop et Quick Share (sur Android)... compatibles ! Ainsi, depuis un smartphone de la gamme Pixel 10 uniquement pour l'instant, il est possible de “AirDroper“ une photo ou un fichier vers un iPhone et vice-versa. Comment Google a-t-il réussi ce tour de passe-passe sachant qu'Apple n'a été ni sollicité ni même informé du projet ? Et quelle sera la réaction de Tim Cook ? Apple aurait beaucoup à perdre à bloquer cette interopérabilité nouvelle...Un épisode qui démarre par un “Retour sur... “ consacré au produit mystère sur lequel Jony Ive et Sam Altman travaillent chez OpenAI et "io"... et qui se termine par le JT de la semaine et nos coups de coeur et cartons.Le bonus hebdo exclusif réservé à nos soutiens Patreon : cette semaine, pourquoi faut-il acheter ses SSD et autres supports de stockage à l'occasion de ce Black Friday 2025 même si les promotions sont quasi inexistantes (et pourquoi) ?

Theo báo cáo do Văn phòng Liên Hiệp Quốc về Ma túy và Tội phạm (UNODC) công bố vào tháng 5 vừa qua, hoạt động sản xuất và buôn bán trái phép ma túy tổng hợp từ khu vực Tam giác Vàng ( khu vực nằm giữa biên giới ba nước Lào, Thái Lan, Miến Điện ) đã tăng gấp bội. Là quốc gia có đường biên giới chung với Lào, một trong 3 quốc gia của khu Tam Giác Vàng, Việt Nam đang phải đối phó với ngày càng nhiều đường dây buôn lậu ma túy tổng hợp từ nước láng giềng.  Trả lời RFI Việt ngữ ngày 15/09/2025, nhà tội phạm học Lương Thanh Hải, giảng viên Trường Tư pháp hình sự và tội phạm học Griffith, Úc, và là chủ tịch Hội đồng nghiên cứu về tội phạm ma túy tại châu Á của Viện nghiên cứu AICS (Hoa Kỳ), trước hết nêu lên những tuyến đường mà ma túy tổng hợp xâm nhập vào Việt Nam : Lương Thanh Hải: Đến nay, việc thẩm lậu ma túy từ khu vực Tam Giác Vàng vào Việt Nam trải đều trên cả ba tuyến chính, đó là đường bộ, đường hàng không và đường biển. Việt Nam may mắn là không nằm trực tiếp trong vòng xoáy của Tam Giác Vàng. Thế nhưng Việt Nam lại là hàng xóm, chia sẻ đường biên trực tiếp với nước Lào, một trong ba nước của khu vực Tam Giác Vàng. Thành thử điều không tránh khỏi được là việc thẩm lậu ma túy, đặc biệt là ma túy tổng hợp, vào Việt Nam trải đều cả ba tuyến, đặc biệt là tuyến đường bộ. Báo cáo mới đây nhất của Liên Hiệp Quốc vào tháng 5 vẫn sử dụng các tài liệu của 63 tỉnh thành. Cho nên tôi cũng theo cái thói quen đó tạm thời đề cập đến các tỉnh trước ngày 01/07 năm nay, khi Việt Nam giảm xuống còn 34 tỉnh thành. Tôi lấy ví dụ đường biên giới Việt Nam và Lào, đặc biệt là các cái cửa khẩu Cầu Treo của Hà Tĩnh, Cha Lo của Quảng Bình và Lao Bảo của Quảng Trị, những vùng rất nóng bỏng, hoặc là tuyến Tây Bắc thì có những khu vực đặc biệt nóng bỏng ở Lóng Luông, Mộc Châu, Sơn La, hay là ở Lạng Sơn, vân vân... Các trục đường biên giới giữa Việt Nam và Lào là một trong những điểm nóng mà Cục cảnh sát phòng chống ma túy của Bộ Công an Việt Nam đã đưa vào tầm ngắm không chỉ bây giờ, mà từ rất lâu. Ngoài ra, tuyến biên giới Việt Nam - Cam Bốt cũng vậy. Ở các đường biên giữa hai nước như Tây Ninh, An Giang, Long An, giới buôn ma túy cũng lợi dụng các hoạt động thương mại, du lịch và vận tải đường bộ. Có thể nói rằng trên đường bộ, ngoài các khu vực cửa khẩu mà tôi có nhấn mạnh, với một đường biên giới trải dài tổng cộng hơn 3000 km tiếp giáp giữa Việt Nam, Lào, Cam Bốt, giữa Việt Nam và Trung Quốc, thì có thể nói rằng có rất nhiều đường mòn, lối mở. Lực lượng bộ đội biên phòng cũng như cảnh sát phòng chống ma túy của Việt Nam mặc dù đã chủ động và đã bố trí nhiều điểm chốt nhưng cũng không xuể được. Có thể nói nguồn nhân lực không thể kham hết được. RFI: Như vậy thì giữa Việt Nam với các nước láng giềng Lào, Cam Bốt, Trung Quốc, các lực lượng thực thi pháp luật có phối hợp với nhau để ngăn chận những đường dây đó? Lương Thanh Hải: Đó cũng là một trong những khía cạnh rất đáng ghi nhận. Nói gì thì nói, việc tăng cường hợp tác song phương và đa phương giữa Việt Nam và các nước láng giềng cũng có những tiến triển nhất định. Điều này đã được Ủy ban phòng chống ma túy và tội phạm của Liên Hiệp Quốc UNODC ghi nhận. Một điểm tôi muốn nhấn mạnh ở đây, đó chính là mô hình hợp tác song phương đường biên, mà chúng tôi hay gọi là Border Liaison Office, tức là việc bố trí song song lực lượng thực thi pháp luật của cả hai nước, bao gồm cảnh sát, biên phòng, hải quan, vân vân. Hai bên sẽ chia sẻ thông tin, kể cả thông tin tình báo, phối hợp các chuyên án để cùng nhau đánh sập các đường dây ma túy thẩm lậu giữa các nước với nhau.  Tuy nhiên, thành công trong các chuyên án phối hợp song phương hoặc đa phương cũng chỉ dừng lại góc độ chừng mực nhất định. Việc thực thi pháp luật vẫn đang còn những hạn chế, bởi vì thứ nhất, có sự khác biệt về mặt luật pháp. Đôi khi việc bắt và đánh sập một đường dây ma túy sau đó còn liên quan đến việc truy tố, xét xử và thi hành án, thậm chí là có dẫn độ hay không? Tất cả những câu hỏi đó, những rào cản đó cũng góp phần làm cản trở hiệu quả mang tính chất bền vững trong hợp tác quốc tế về phòng chống tội phạm xuyên quốc gia.  Ngoài cái đầu tiên đó là đường mòn, như tôi nói, rất phức tạp, có thể là điểm nóng nhất, thì đường biển cũng vậy. Đặc biệt trong giai đoạn Covid thì hầu hết đường biên giới của các nước đều đóng cả. Chính vì vậy, giai đoạn từ 2021 cho đến 2023 có thể nói là giai đoạn bùng nổ, không chỉ đối với Việt Nam hay ba nước khu vực Tam Giác Vàng, mà kể cả là Úc, Nhật hay Trung Quốc, kể cả Nam Mỹ, tất cả các hoạt động buôn bán vận chuyển trái phép ma túy tổng hợp đều tận dụng đường biển rất nhiều. Cho nên khu vực eo biển nằm ở Vịnh Thái Lan và đi qua eo biển Malacca có thể nói cũng là một trong những đường biển mà Việt Nam cần phải tập trung để hạn chế tối đa. Ngoài đường bộ và  đường biển, đường hàng không và bưu kiện có thể nói cũng là một trong những hướng thẩm lậu ma túy nổi lên trong nhiều năm trở lại đây đối với Việt Nam, mà lực lượng thực thi pháp luật cũng đã ít nhiều có những thành công nhất định và đã phá được nhiều chuyên án liên quan vận chuyển trái phép ma túy tổng hợp bằng đường hàng không và bưu kiện vào Việt Nam.  RFI: Với lượng bưu kiện nhập vào Việt Nam rất là lớn thì làm sao các cơ quan chức năng có thể kiểm tra để mà phát hiện được ma túy tổng hợp giấu trong những bưu kiện đó? Lương Thanh Hải: Đây là một trong những vấn đề rất là đau đầu và cũng là một trong những cái khó, bởi vì thứ nhất nó liên quan đến chính sách, pháp luật về kiểm soát và giám sát hàng hóa của từng nước. Việt Nam cũng vậy, không tránh khỏi những vướng mắc và khó khăn. Chẳng hạn về phương tiện trang thiết bị cho các lực lượng thực thi pháp luật, không phải cơ quan nào cũng đều được trang bị một cách tối tân nhất như ở các nước phương Tây. Đó cũng là một hạn chế làm giảm thiểu khả năng phát hiện đối với lực lượng thực thi pháp luật của Việt Nam đối với các đối tượng vận chuyển ma túy qua đường hàng không, hoặc là đường bưu kiện. Ngoài ra, những phương thức, thủ đoạn của các đối tượng vận chuyển ngày càng tinh vi hơn, không chỉ là giấu trong vali hay các vật dụng, vân vân. Có nhiều đối tượng còn nuốt vào trong bụng và thậm chí còn phẫu thuật để nhét vào các bộ phận của cơ thể, vân vân... Tất cả những điều đó đặt ra những thách thức và đòi hỏi các lực lượng thực thi pháp luật phải nâng cao hơn nữa trình độ nghiệp vụ, cùng với việc sử dụng phối hợp các trang thiết bị. Hiện nay, đối với Việt Nam thì Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc AFP cũng hỗ trợ rất nhiều cả về vật chất lẫn chương trình đào tạo, hỗ trợ về trang thiết bị. Ở góc độ nhà nghiên cứu và cũng là người thúc đẩy mối quan hệ hợp tác giữa lực lượng thực thi pháp luật Úc và Việt Nam, tôi hy vọng trong thời gian tới sẽ có nhiều hỗ trợ về trang thiết bị tối tân hơn. Ví dụ như các máy tia hồng ngoại có thể rà soát các loại chất ma túy qua đường bưu kiện và đường hàng không, hoặc là có thể có các khóa huấn luyện chuyên sâu đặc biệt đối với các detective dog, chó nghiệp vụ, để hỗ trợ Việt Nam trong quá trình điều tra, phát hiện và suy xét các chuyên án ma túy liên quan đến đường hàng không. RFI: Cũng nói về hợp tác giữa Việt Nam với Úc, bây giờ có những đường dây vận chuyển ma túy tổng hợp từ Việt Nam sang Úc, chắc là qua đường hàng không nhiều hơn, hay không? Như vậy hai nước phối hợp như thế nào để ngăn chặn những đường dây đó?  Đúng vậy. Tuy nhiên, so với mặt bằng chung, so với các nước khác, việc vận chuyển từ Việt Nam trực tiếp sang Úc thì số lượng không đáng kể. Theo báo cáo hàng năm của Ủy ban nghiên cứu về tội phạm và ma túy của Úc, hầu hết các đối tượng vận chuyển ma túy tổng hợp từ Việt Nam qua Úc với số lượng vừa phải, nhỏ lẻ. Tức là nếu căn cứ theo định lượng tội danh của khung hình sự thì nó cũng ít nghiêm trọng, chứ không phải là hàng tạ hay hàng tấn, như khối lượng từ Tam Giác Vàng thẩm lậu vào Việt Nam. Các đối tượng vận chuyển như vậy thì rơi vào các nhóm thứ yếu, có thể là những du học sinh, những người lớn tuổi, những người nhẹ dạ cả tin cầm hành lý hộ, vân vân. Tuy nhiên, ở góc độ về thực thi pháp luật, hợp tác giữa Cảnh sát Liên bang Úc AFP và cảnh sát Việt Nam khá chặt chẽ, bởi vì AFP là một trong những lực lượng thực thi pháp luật triển khai khá sớm con người cụ thể ở đại sứ quán ở Hà Nội cũng như lãnh sự quán ở thành phố Hồ Chí Minh . Mô hình thành lập trung tâm phòng chống tội phạm xuyên quốc gia Việt - Úc có thể nói là một trong những mô hình đầu tiên mà một lực lượng cảnh sát ngoài Việt Nam, cụ thể là Úc, phối hợp cùng Tổng cục Cảnh sát trước đây, bây giờ là văn phòng cơ quan điều tra phụ trách. Cả hai bên đã phối hợp và xây dựng và đặt tại trụ sở thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Trung tâm phòng chống tội phạm xâm quốc gia này hoạt động khá hiệu quả, là nơi trung chuyển, cung cấp, trao đổi thông tin, cả thông tin tình báo lẫn thông tin về các loại tội phạm, đặc biệt là về ma túy, để giúp  lực lượng thực thi pháp luật cả hai nước có cơ sở để triển khai các hoạt động phòng chống hiệu quả.

Get in touch with Ultrarunning Sam here ⬅️In this episode of the podcast we speak to Dan Weller. Dan returns to the podcast after previously being on in 2024, when we talked about his wins at the Montane Spine Challenger South and the Pennine Barrier Ultra. This time Dan talks about his 2nd place finish at Centurion Wendover Woods 50 and his year of racing so far. We dive into his new approach to training under his coach Sarah Cameron and his plans for the rest of the year. But obviously we couldn't let him go without a big old conversation about our beloved Spine Race. Dan will be toeing the line at Challenger South in January, alongside Mark Darbyshire and Jack Scott (to name just a few) in what is shaping up to be the most competitive edition of the 108 mile route to date. Dan is one to watch 

Trump'ın dayattığı Gazze mütarekesi Batı Asya'ya barış getirmedi. İsrail sürekli bu sözde ateşkesi bozuyor, yeni katliamlar yapmak için hiçbir fırsatı kaçırmıyor. Trump Türkiye, Mısır ve Katar'ı taşeronlaştırarak direnişi zapturapt altına almaya çalışırken, savaşmadan iktidarda kalması mümkün olmayan Netanyahu, İran'a karşı ABD ve Avrupa ile birlikte yeni bir cephe açmak için kolları sıvıyor. Aslında bu cephede yan yana gelenler El Aksa Tûfanı öncesinde iyice belli olmuştu, şimdi sözde ateşkes, İran'a karşı emperyalistler ve Siyonistlerle aynı safta olanları yeniden görünür kılıyor.Emperyalizm-Siyonizm cephesi ve karşısındakilerİran, İsrail'e karşı silahlı olarak Filistin halkının yanında durdu. Bunun karşılığı Ekim 2024'ten itibaren Siyonistlerin ve son olarak da ABD emperyalizminin İran'a yönelik onlarca saldırısı oldu. Yakın zamanda İsrail ve ABD İran'a yeniden saldırabilir. Yemen, Filistin halkını bir dakika bile yalnız bırakmadı. Tel Aviv'i yüzlerce kilometre uzaktan defalarca vurdu. Kızıldeniz'i emperyalist ve Siyonistlerin gemilerine kapattı. Karşılığı, bir seferinde Yemen hükümet üyelerinin dahi katledildiği karşı saldırılar ve acımasız bir ambargo oldu. Hizbullah, Lübnan'ın güneyini Siyonistler için bir cehenneme çevirdi. İsrail'in kuzeyinde yaşayan yerleşimciler bir yıldan uzun bir süre evlerine yaklaşamadılar bile. Karşılığı, Hizbullah liderlerine ve komutanlarına yönelik suikastlar, güney Lübnan'a ABD ve İsrail'in yoğun saldırıları oldu. Özetle, El Aksa Tûfânı'nın ardından cesur bir şekilde Siyonizme kafa tutan kim varsa, ağır bedeller ödedi.Bunların karşısında, İsrail'i soykırım sürecinde bile destekleyenler var. Birleşik Arap Emirlikleri bu listenin başında. Karşılığında Emirlik tüccarları İsrail pazarına girdi ve ülke, ABD'den satışı ciddi kısıtlamalara bağlı yapay zekâ çipleri gibi malzemeler almayı başardı. Gazze'deki ablukanın destekçisi Mısır, soykırım boyunca Refah'ı açmaya yeltenmedi. Filistin halkını yalnız bıraktı. Karşılığında ABD askerî sanayii ürünlerinin Mısır'a satışına onay verildi. Elbette Mısır'da Sisi'yi başa getiren darbenin ABD destekli olduğunu söylemeye gerek bile yok. İngiliz ve Türk istihbaratı ortak yapımı olan, Suriye'nin tekfirci mezhepçi çeteleri, kravat takıp takım elbise giydikten sonra, İsrail'e dokunmayacaklarına yemin edince Şam'da bir devlete sahip oluverdiler. Son örnek Fas. İsrail ile kurduğu iyi ilişkilerin de sonucu olarak, yıllar önce sömürgeleştirdiği Batı Sahra'da Birleşmiş Milletler Güvenlik Konseyi'nden kendi istediği bir kararı çıkarmayı başardı.Emperyalizme ve Siyonizme hizmet eninde sonunda kaybettirir!“İyi ya işte, İsrail ile işbirliği yaparsak kazanırız” mı dediniz? Yanıldınız. Fas gençliğinin sefalete karşı 27 Eylül'de başlattığı gösterileri geçen ayki gazetemizde sizlere aktarmıştık. Eylemler şimdilik duruldu, ama halkın sefaleti devam ediyor. Mısır halkı, Sisi'nin Siyonizmin dostu olmasından hiçbir şey kazanmıyor, yarısına yakını yoksulluk sınırı altında. Sisi ise kendisine yeni bir başkent inşa etmekle meşgul. İsrail HTŞ'cilere inat Suriye'yi bir atış poligonuna çevirmiş durumda.Trump'ın silahsızlandırma planı Batı Asya'yı soykırımcı Siyonistler ve emperyalistler için dikensiz gül bahçesine çevirmeyi amaçlıyorTrump'ın Gazze planı, öyle ucuz uyanıklıklarla lehe çevrilebilecek bir proje değil, sadece Filistin'i ilgilendiren bir plan hiç değil. Filistin direniş örgütlerinden başlayacak bir “Direniş Ekseni güçlerini silahsızlandırma” planının ilk adımı. ABD basıncı ve tehditleriyle Filistin örgütleri, ardından muhtemelen İsrail'in saldırılarıyla Hizbullah ve belki de son aşamada Ensarullah hedef alınacak. Bölge emperyalizm ve Siyonizm için dikensiz gül bahçesine dönüşecek. İran, yıkılmasa bile sınırlarına hapsedilecek. Sonra da anne çakal Trump, bölge ülkelerinden oluşan yavrularının önüne dolar ambalajına sarılmış yeni İbrahimî anlaşmaları atıp, buradan gelecek zenginliği bağıra çağıra aralarında paylaşmalarını izleyecek.

We discuss her successful race to 3rd place at Mallorca and how it feels like she's making her mark on the international trail running scene.As always, we talk about her training and prep going into the race. What went right and what went wrong...which includes a lack of carbs for the last 30+ KMs (but we won't talk about that for too long) Although this race didn't go exactly to plan, its agreed that its actually a great success. A performance that she can be proud of as she prepares for her next big event.... THE ARC!HT@ultrarunning_sam @hometrails_ http://www.youtube.com/@ultrarunningsam

Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of women nationwide, yet during midlife—the crucial time for prevention—many women fall out of regular medical care.Host Dr. Rachel Pope is joined by Dr. Lisa Larkin, an internal medicine and women's health expert and founder of Ms. Medicine. They discuss why women's cardiovascular risk spikes around menopause and what you can do about it now.The Midlife Risk SpikeDr. Larkin highlights a failure in the healthcare system: women aged 40 to 60 often receive the least medical care, right when prevention is most critical.The perimenopausal transition causes rapid and significant metabolic changes: Cholesterol rises and HDL protection declines. Development of insulin resistance. Increase in visceral fat (the "risky fat" around organs), which is a marker for cardiovascular disease.Standard risk tools often underestimate risk in women because they don't account for sex-specific factors like adverse pregnancy outcomes (preeclampsia, gestational diabetes). Women are also often allowed to run higher blood pressures, missing opportunities for early intervention.Management & The "Missed Boat" QuestionDr. Larkin stresses that Body Composition is more important than BMI, as most women gain risky visceral fat during this time. She recommends tracking body composition annually.For women in their mid-60s who ask if they've missed the boat on prevention or Hormone Therapy (HT): Assessment is Key: Dr. Larkin performs a highly individualized assessment, often utilizing a Coronary Calcium Score to check for established plaque. If Risk is Low: A patient with perfect health metrics and a Calcium Score of zero may still be a candidate for HT to treat symptoms and support bone health. If Risk is High: The priority is to aggressively fix every single risk factor (hypertension, elevated lipids) before considering hormones, as established plaque may carry more risk with estrogen.Dr. Larkin emphasizes that women must be their best advocates because the healthcare system is currently failing to provide the comprehensive care needed during this pivotal stage of life.

In recent years, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in children and adolescents (age ≤18 years) have been increasing, and the quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft has been gaining popularity for ACL reconstruction. However, there is no consensus regarding the graft choice for ACL reconstruction in these young patients. There has been a paucity of literature comparing the functional outcomes of hamstring tendon (HT) and QT autografts for ACL reconstruction in patients aged ≤18 years.   In conclusion, a QT autograft for ACL reconstruction led to similar clinical outcomes, revision rates, and sports participation compared with an HT autograft in pediatric and adolescent patients.   Click here to read the article.

Dopamine. Serotonin. Endorphins. We have all heard these terms. And they shape our lives in many ways. From wine and coffee to opioids and party drugs, almost all of us use some chemicals to manipulate our lived experience. Brain chemistry shapes our self-image, too: few are those who have never wondered if their brain chemicals are "just off balance". So how accurate are the popular theories about these mythic molecules? To guide us through the topic, I'm joined by Judy Grisel—an ex-addict and a world-leading neuroscientist of addiction. We will discuss all the main elements of brain chemistry by using drugs and addictions as a window into the chemicals that flavour all of our lives. Towards the end, we also search for ways to better help those who struggle with addiction. As always, we finish with my guest's reflection on humanity.

Menopause & HT (start time: 0:58)  It happens to every woman with a uterus who reaches midlife. Menopause is a major hormonal  transition that, although very challenging for some women, is natural, and (get this!) even  advantageous to civilization. Think grandmothers!  Yet menopause has been largely dismissed by the medical community. As a result,  too … Continue reading "Menopause, Hormone Therapy, Science"

Stroke (CVA) is very common in women, who have a higher risk than men over their lifetime; one in five women between the ages of 55 and 75 will experience a stroke. Stroke is a significant concern for women's health, being the third leading cause of death and causing more deaths than breast cancer. While systematic estrogen containing menopausal HT has been considered contraindicated in those with prior CVA history, is local/vaginal E2 therapy safe? A new population-based study gives us some insights. Listen in for details.1.

This is a requested follow up to our most recent episode. Menopausal hormone therapy (HT) prescribing practices have evolved over the last few decades guided by the changing understanding of the treatment's risks and benefits. We know that dose, route of administration, and choice of agent (estradiol versus a more synthetic option, and micronized progesterone over other progestins.) alter the risk benefit ratio. Compared to natural progesterone, synthetic progestins have 10-100- fold greater activity. Synthetic MPA is vasoconstrictive while natural progesterone and drospirenone cause vasodilation and lower blood pressure. Micronized progesterone is bioidentical to the hormone made endogenously and has efficient oral absorption. Progestogens come in oral and transdermal forms, and it can also be given vaginally. Is there data that micronized progesterone is safer for the breast for a menopausal hormone therapy? This podcast topic recommendation comes from one of our podcast family members.

Nonprofits, your “10 blue links” era is over. In this episode, Avinash Kaushik (Human-Made Machine; Occam's Razor) breaks down Answer Engine Optimization—why LLMs now decide who gets seen, why third-party chatter outweighs your own site, and what to do about it. We get tactical: build AI-resistant content (genuine novelty + depth), go multimodal (text, video, audio), and stamp everything with real attribution so bots can't regurgitate you into sludge. We also cover measurement that isn't delusional—group your AEO referrals, expect fewer visits but higher intent, and stop worshiping last-click and vanity metrics. Avinash updates the 10/90 rule for the AI age (invest in people, plus “synthetic interns”), and torpedoes linear funnels in favor of See-Think-Do-Care anchored in intent. If you want a blunt, practical playbook for staying visible—and actually converting—when answers beat searches, this is it. About Avinash Avinash Kaushik is a leading voice in marketing analytics—the author of Web Analytics: An Hour a Day and Web Analytics 2.0, publisher of the Marketing Analytics Intersect newsletter, and longtime writer of the Occam's Razor blog. He leads strategy at Human Made Machine, advises Tapestry on brand strategy/marketing transformation, and previously served as Google's Digital Marketing Evangelist.

So if you're a business, you're a nonprofit, how. Do you deal with the fact that you're gonna lose a lot of traffic that you get from a search engine? Today, when all of humanity moves to the answer Engine W world, only about two or 3% of the people are doing it. It's growing very rapidly. Um, and so the art of answer engine optimization is making sure that we are building for these LMS and not getting stuck with only solving for Google with the old SEO techniques. Some of them still work, but you need to learn a lot of new stuff because on average, organic traffic will drop between 16 to 64% negative and paid search traffic will drop between five to 30% negative. And that is a huge challenge. And the reason you should start with AEO now ​ George Weiner: [00:01:00] This week's guest, Avinash Kaushik is an absolute hero of mine because of his amazing, uh, work in the field of web analytics. And also, more importantly, I'd say education. Avinash Kaushik, , digital marketing evangelist at Google for Google Analytics. He spent 16 years there. He basically is. In the room where it happened, when the underlying ability to understand what's going on on our websites was was created. More importantly, I think for me, you know, he joined us on episode 45 back in 2016, and he still is, I believe, on the cutting edge of what's about to happen with AEO and the death of SEO. I wanna unpack that 'cause we kind of fly through terms [00:02:00] before we get into this podcast interview AEO. Answer engine optimization. It's this world of saying, alright, how do we create content that can't just be, , regurgitated by bots, , wholesale taken. And it's a big shift from SEO search engine optimization. This classic work of creating content for Google to give us 10 blue links for people to click on that behavior is changing. And when. We go through a period of change. I always wanna look at primary sources. The people that, , are likely to know the most and do the most. And he operates in the for-profit world. But make no mistake, he cares deeply about nonprofits. His expertise, , has frankly been tested, proven and reproven. So I pay attention when he says things like, SEO is going away, and AEO is here to stay. So I give you Avan Kashic. I'm beyond excited that he has come back. He was on our 45th episode and now we are well over our 450th episode. So, , who knows what'll happen next time we talk to him. [00:03:00] This week on the podcast, we have Avinash Kaushik. He is currently the chief strategy officer at Human Made Machine, but actually returning guest after many, many years, and I know him because he basically introduced me to Google Analytics, wrote the literal book on it, and also helped, by the way. No big deal. Literally birth Google Analytics for everyone. During his time at Google, I could spend the entire podcast talking about, uh, the amazing amounts that you have contributed to, uh, marketing and analytics. But I'd rather just real quick, uh, how are you doing and how would you describe your, uh, your role right now? Avinash Kaushik: Oh, thank you. So it's very excited to be back. Um, look forward to the discussion today. I do, I do several things concurrently, of course. I, I, I am an author and I write this weekly newsletter on marketing and analytics. Um, I am the Chief Strategy Officer at Human Made Machine, a company [00:04:00] that obsesses about helping brands win before they spend by doing creative pretesting. And then I also do, uh, uh, consulting at Tapestry, which owns Coach and Kate Spades. And my work focuses on brand strategy and marketing transformation globally. George Weiner: , Amazing. And of course, Occam's Razor. The, the, yes, the blog, which is incredible. I happen to be a, uh, a subscriber. You know, I often think of you in the nonprofit landscape, even though you operate, um, across many different brands, because personally, you also actually donate all of your proceeds from your books, from your blog, from your subscription. You are donating all of that, um, because that's just who you are and what you do. So I also look at you as like team nonprofit, though. Avinash Kaushik: You're very kind. No, no, I, I, yeah. All the proceeds from both of my books and now my newsletter, premium newsletter. It's about $200,000 a year, uh, donated to nonprofits, and a hundred [00:05:00] percent of the revenue is donated nonprofit, uh, nonprofits. And, and for me, it, it's been ai. Then I have to figure out. Which ones, and so I research nonprofits and I look up their cha charity navigators, and I follow up with the people and I check in on the works while, while don't work at a nonprofit, but as a customer of nonprofits, if you will. I, I keep sort of very close tabs on the amazing work that these charities do around the world. So feel very close to the people that you work with very closely. George Weiner: So recently I got an all caps subject line from you. Well, not from you talking about this new acronym that was coming to destroy the world, I think is what you, no, AEO. Can you help us understand what answer engine optimization is? Avinash Kaushik: Yes, of course. Of course. We all are very excited about ai. Obviously you, you, you would've to live in. Some backwaters not to be excited about it. And we know [00:06:00] that, um, at the very edge, lots of people are using large language models, chat, GPT, Claude, Gemini, et cetera, et cetera, in the world. And, and increasingly over the last year, what you have begun to notice is that instead of using a traditional search engine like Google or using the old Google interface with the 10 blue links, et cetera. People are beginning to use these lms. They just go to chat, GPT to get the answer that they want. And the one big difference in this, this behavior is I actually have on September 8th, I have a keynote here in New York and I have to be in Shanghai the next day. That is physically impossible because it, it just, the time it takes to travel. But that's my thing. So today, if I wanted to figure out what is the fastest way. On September 8th, I can leave New York and get to Shanghai. I would go to Google flights. I would put in the destinations. It will come back with a crap load of data. Then I poke and prod and sort and filter, and I have to figure out which flight is right for that. For this need I have. [00:07:00] So that is the old search engine world. I'm doing all the work, hunting and pecking, drilling down, visiting websites, et cetera, et cetera. Instead, actually what I did is I went to charge GBT 'cause I, I have a plus I, I'm a paying member of charge GBT and I said to charge GBTI have to do a keynote between four and five o'clock on September 8th in New York and I have to be in Shanghai as fast as I possibly can be After my keynote, can you find me the best flight? And I just typed in those two sentences. He came back and said, this Korean airline website flight is the best one for you. You will not get to your destination on time until, unless you take a private jet flight for $300,000. There is your best option. They're gonna get to Shanghai on, uh, September 10th at 10 o'clock in the morning if you follow these steps. And so what happened there? I didn't have to hunt and pack and dig and go to 15 websites to find the answer I wanted. The engine found the [00:08:00] answer I wanted at the end and did all the work for me that you are seeing from searching, clicking, clicking, clicking, clicking, clicking to just having somebody get you. The final answer is what I call the, the, the underlying change in consumer behavior that makes answer engine so exciting. Obviously, it creates a challenge for us because what happened between those two things, George is. I didn't have to visit many websites. So traffic is going down, obviously, and these interfaces at the moment don't have paid search links for now. They will come, they will come, but they don't at the moment. So traffic's gonna go down. So if you're a business, you're a nonprofit, how. Do you deal with the fact that you're gonna lose a lot of traffic that you get from a search engine? Today, when all of humanity moves to the answer Engine W world, only about two or 3% of the people are doing it. It's growing very rapidly. Um, and so the art of answer engine optimization [00:09:00] is making sure that we are building for these LMS and not getting stuck with only solving for Google with the old SEO techniques. Some of them still work, but you need to learn a lot of new stuff because on average, organic traffic will drop between 16 to 64% negative and paid search traffic will drop between five to 30% negative. And that is a huge challenge. And the reason you should start with AEO now George Weiner: that you know. Is a window large enough to drive a metaphorical data bus through? And I think talk to your data doctor results may vary. You are absolutely right. We have been seeing this with our nonprofit clients, with our own traffic that yes, basically staying even is the new growth. Yeah. But I want to sort of talk about the secondary implications of an AI that has ripped and gripped [00:10:00] my website's content. Then added whatever, whatever other flavors of my brand and information out there, and is then advising somebody or talking about my brand. Can you maybe unwrap that a little bit more? What are the secondary impacts of frankly, uh, an AI answering what is the best international aid organization I should donate to? Yes. As you just said, you do Avinash Kaushik: exactly. No, no, no. This such a, such a wonderful question. It gets to the crux. What used to influence Google, by the way, Google also has an answer engine called Gemini. So I just, when I say Google, I'm referring to the current Google that most people use with four paid links and 10 SEO links. So when I say Google, I'm referring to that one. But Google also has an answer engine. I, I don't want anybody saying Google does is not getting into the answer engine business. It is. So Google is very much influenced by content George that you create. I call it one P content, [00:11:00] first party content. Your website, your mobile app, your YouTube channel, your Facebook page, your, your, your, your, and it sprinkles on some amount of third party content. Some websites might have reviews about you like Yelp, some websites might have PR releases about you light some third party content. Between search engine and engines. Answer Engines seem to overvalue third party content. My for one p content, my website, my mobile app, my YouTube channel. My, my, my, everything actually is going down in influence while on Google it's pretty high. So as here you do SEO, you're, you're good, good ranking traffic. But these LLMs are using many, many, many, literally tens of thousands more sources. To understand who you are, who you are as a nonprofit, and it's [00:12:00] using everybody's videos, everybody's Reddit posts, everybody's Facebook things, and tens of thousands of more people who write blogs and all kinds of stuff in order to understand who you are as a nonprofit, what services you offer, how good you are, where you're falling short, all those negative reviews or positive reviews, it's all creepy influence. Has gone through the roof, P has come down, which is why it has become very, very important for us to build a new content strategy to figure out how we can influence these LMS about who we are. Because the scary thing is at this early stage in answer engines, someone else is telling the LLMs who you are instead of you. A more, and that's, it feels a little scary. It feels as scary as a as as a brand. It feels very scary as I'm a chief strategy officer, human made machine. It feels scary for HMM. It feels scary for coach. [00:13:00] It's scary for everybody, uh, which is why you really urgently need to get a handle on your content strategy. George Weiner: Yeah, I mean, what you just described, if it doesn't give you like anxiety, just stop right now. Just replay what we just did. And that is the second order effects. And you know, one of my concerns, you mentioned it early on, is that sort of traditional SEO, we've been playing the 10 Blue Link game for so long, and I'm worried that. Because of the changes right now, roughly what 20% of a, uh, search is AI overview, that number's not gonna go down. You're mentioning third party stuff. All of Instagram back to 2020, just quietly got tossed into the soup of your AI brand footprint, as we call it. Talk to me about. There's a nonprofit listening to this right now, and then probably if they're smart, other organizations, what is coming in the next year? They're sitting down to write the same style of, you know, [00:14:00] ai, SEO, optimized content, right? They have their content calendar. If you could have like that, I'm sitting, you're sitting in the room with them. What are you telling that classic content strategy team right now that's about to embark on 2026? Avinash Kaushik: Yes. So actually I, I published this newsletter just last night, and this is like the, the fourth in my AEO series, uh, newsletter, talks about how to create your content portfolio strategy. Because in the past we were like, we've got a product pages, you know, the equivalent of our, our product pages. We've got some, some, uh, charitable stories on our website and uh, so on and so forth. And that's good. That's basic. You need to do the basics. The interesting thing is you need to do so much more both on first party. So for example, one of the first things to appreciate is LMS or answer engines are far more influenced by multimodal content. So what does that mean? Text plus [00:15:00] video plus audio. Video and audio were also helpful in Google. And remember when I say Google, I'm referring to the old linky linking Google, not Gemini. But now video has ton more influence. So if you're creating a content strategy for next year, you should say many. Actually, lemme do one at a time. Text. You have to figure out more types of things. Authoritative Q and as. Very educational deep content around your charity's efforts. Lots of text. Third. Any seasonality, trends and patterns that happen in your charity that make a difference? I support a school in, in Nepal and, and during the winter they have very different kind of needs than they do during the summer. And so I bumped into this because I was searching about something seasonality related. This particular school for Tibetan children popped up in Nepal, and it's that content they wrote around winter and winter struggles and coats and all this stuff. I'm like. [00:16:00] It popped up in the answer engine and I'm like, okay. I research a bit more. They have good stories about it, and I'm supporting them q and a. Very, very important. Testimonials. Very, very important interviews. Very, very important. Super, super duper important with both the givers and the recipients, supporters of your nonprofit, but also the recipient recipients of very few nonprofits actually interview the people who support them. George Weiner: Like, why not like donors or be like, Hey, why did you support us? What was the, were the two things that moved you from Aware to care? Avinash Kaushik: Like for, for the i I Support Emergency, which is a Italian nonprofit like Ms. Frontiers and I would go on their website and speak a fiercely about why I absolutely love the work they do. Content, yeah. So first is text, then video. You gotta figure out how to use video a lot more. And most nonprofits are not agile in being able to use video. And the third [00:17:00] thing that I think will be a little bit of a struggle is to figure out how to use audio. 'cause audio also plays a very influential role. So for as you are planning your uh, uh, content calendar for the next year. Have the word multimodal. I'm sorry, it's profoundly unsexy, but put multimodal at the top, underneath it, say text, then say video, then audio, and start to fill those holes in. And if those people need ideas and example of how to use audio, they should just call you George. You are the king of podcasting and you can absolutely give them better advice than I could around how nonprofits could use audio. But the one big thing you have to think about is multimodality for next year George Weiner: that you know, is incredibly powerful. Underlying that, there's this nuance that I really want to make sure that we understand, which is the fact that the type of content is uniquely different. It's not like there's a hunger organization listening right now. It's not 10 facts about hunger during the winter. [00:18:00] Uh, days of being able to be an information resource that would then bring people in and then bring them down your, you know, your path. It's game over. If not now, soon. Absolutely. So how you are creating things that AI can't create and that's why you, according to whom, is what I like to think about. Like, you're gonna say something, you're gonna write something according to whom? Is it the CEO? Is it the stakeholder? Is it the donor? And if you can put a attribution there, suddenly the AI can't just lift and shift it. It has to take that as a block and be like, no, it was attributed here. This is the organization. Is that about right? Or like first, first party data, right? Avinash Kaushik: I'll, I'll add one more, one more. Uh, I'll give a proper definition. So, the fir i I made 11 recommendations last night in the newsletter. The very first one is focus on creating AI resistant content. So what, what does that mean? AI resistant means, uh, any one of us from nonprofits could [00:19:00] open chat, GPT type in a few queries and chat. GD PT can write our next nonprofit newsletter. It could write the next page for our donation. It could create the damn page for our donation, right? Remember, AI can create way more content than you can, but if you can use AI to create content, 67 million other nonprofits are doing the same thing. So what you have to do is figure out how to build AI resistant content, and my definition is very simple. George, what is AI resistance? It's content of genuine novelty. So to tie back to your recommendation, your CEO of a nonprofit that you just recommended, the attribution to George. Your CEO has a unique voice, a unique experience. The AI hasn't learned what makes your CEO your frontline staff solving problems. You are a person who went and gave a speech at the United Nations on behalf of your nonprofit. Whatever you are [00:20:00] doing is very special, and what you have to figure out is how to get out of the AI slop. You have to get out of all the things that AI can automatically type. Figure out if your content meets this very simple, standard, genuine novelty and depth 'cause it's the one thing AI isn't good at. That's how you rank higher. And not only will will it, will it rank you, but to make another point you made, George, it's gonna just lift, blanc it out there and attribute credit to you. Boom. But if you're not genuine, novelty and depth. Thousand other nonprofits are using AI to generate text and video. Could George Weiner: you just, could you just quit whatever you're doing and start a school instead? I seriously can't say it enough that your point about AI slop is terrifying me because I see it. We've built an AI tool and the subtle lesson here is that think about how quickly this AI was able to output that newsletter. Generic old school blog post and if this tool can do it, which [00:21:00] by the way is built on your local data set, we have the rag, which doesn't pause for a second and realize if this AI can make it, some other AI is going to be able to reproduce it. So how are you bringing the human back into this? And it's a style of writing and a style of strategic thinking that please just start a school and like help every single college kid leaving that just GPT their way through a degree. Didn't freaking get, Avinash Kaushik: so it's very, very important to make sure. Content is of genuine novelty and depth because it cannot be replicated by the ai. And by the way, this, by the way, George, it sounds really high, but honestly to, to use your point, if you're a CEO of a nonprofit, you are in it for something that speaks to you. You're in it. Because ai, I mean nonprofit is not your path to becoming the next Bill Gates, you're doing it because you just have this hair. Whoa, spoiler alert. No, I'm sorry. [00:22:00] Maybe, maybe that is. I, I didn't, I didn't mean any negative emotion there, but No, I love it. It's all, it's like a, it's like a sense of passion you are bringing. There's something that speaks to you. Just put that on paper, put that on video, put that on audio, because that is what makes you unique. And the collection of those stories of genuine depth and novelty will make your nonprofit unique and stand out when people are looking for answers. George Weiner: So I have to point to the next elephant in the room here, which is measurement. Yes. Yes. Right now, somebody is talking about human made machine. Someone's talking about whole whale. Someone's talking about your nonprofit having a discussion in an answer engine somewhere. Yes. And I have no idea. How do I go about understanding measurement in this new game? Avinash Kaushik: I have. I have two recommendations. For nonprofits, I would recommend a tool called Tracker ai, TRA, KKR [00:23:00] ai, and it has a free version, that's why I'm recommending it. Some of the many of these tools are paid tools, but with Tracker, do ai. It allows you to identify your website, URL, et cetera, et cetera, and it'll give you some really wonderful and fantastic, helpful report It. Tracker helps you understand prompt tracking, which is what are other people writing about you when they're seeking? You? Think of this, George, as your old webmaster tools. What keywords are people using to search? Except you can get the prompts that people are using to get a more robust understanding. It also monitors your brand's visibility. How often are you showing up and how often is your competitor showing up, et cetera, et cetera. And then he does that across multiple search engines. So you can say, oh, I'm actually pretty strong in OpenAI for some reason, and I'm not that strong in Gemini. Or, you know what, I have like the highest rating in cloud, but I don't have it in OpenAI. And this begins to help you understand where your current content strategy is working and where it is not [00:24:00] working. So that's your brand visibility. And the third thing that you get from Tracker is active sentiment tracking. This is the scary part because remember, you and I were both worried about what other people saying about us. So this, this are very helpful that we can go out and see what it is. What is the sentiment around our nonprofit that is coming across in, um, in these lms? So Tracker ai, it have a free and a paid version. So I would, I would recommend using it for these three purposes. If, if you have funding to invest in a tool. Then there's a tool called Ever Tool, E-V-E-R-T-U-N-E Ever. Tune is a paid tool. It's extremely sophisticated and robust, and they do brand monitoring, site audit, content strategy, consumer preference report, ai, brand index, just the. Step and breadth of metrics that they provide is quite extensive, but, but it is a paid tool. It does cost money. It's not actually crazy expensive, but uh, I know I have worked with them before, so full disclosure [00:25:00] and having evaluated lots of different tools, I have sort of settled on those two. If it's a enterprise type client I'm working with, then I'll use Evert Tune if I am working with a nonprofit or some of my personal stuff. I'll use Tracker AI because it's good enough for a person that is, uh, smaller in size and revenue, et cetera. So those two tools, so we have new metrics coming, uh, from these tools. They help us understand the kind of things we use webmaster tools for in the past. Then your other thing you will want to track very, very closely is using Google Analytics or some other tool on your website. You are able to currently track your, uh, organic traffic and if you're taking advantage of paid ads, uh, through a grant program on Google, which, uh, provides free paid search credits to nonprofits. Then you're tracking your page search traffic to continue to track that track trends, patterns over time. But now you will begin to see in your referrals report, in your referrals report, you're gonna begin to seeing open [00:26:00] ai. You're gonna begin to see these new answer engines. And while you don't know the keywords that are sending this traffic and so on and so forth, it is important to keep track of the traffic because of two important reasons. One, one, you want to know how to highly prioritize. AEO. That's one reason. But the other reason I found George is syn is so freaking hard to rank in an answer engine. When people do come to my websites from Answer engine, the businesses I work with that is very high intent person, they tend to be very, very valuable because they gave the answer engine a very complex question to answer the answers. Engine said you. The right answer for it. So when I show up, I'm ready to buy, I'm ready to donate. I'm ready to do the action that I was looking for. So the percent of people who are coming from answer engines to your nonprofit carry significantly higher intention, and coming from Google, who also carry [00:27:00] intent. But this man, you stood out in an answer engine, you're a gift from God. Person coming thinks you're very important and is likely to engage in some sort of business with you. So I, even if it's like a hundred people, I care a lot about those a hundred people, even if it's not 10,000 at the moment. Does that make sense George? George Weiner: It does, and I think, I'm glad you pointed to, you know, the, the good old Google Analytics. I'm like, it has to be a way, and I, I think. I gave maximum effort to this problem inside of Google Analytics, and I'm still frustrated that search console is not showing me, and it's just blending it all together into one big soup. But. I want you to poke a hole in this thinking or say yes or no. You can create an AI channel, an AEO channel cluster together, and we have a guide on that cluster together. All of those types of referral traffic, as you mentioned, right from there. I actually know thanks to CloudFlare, the ratios of the amount of scrapes versus the actual clicks sent [00:28:00] for roughly 20, 30% of. Traffic globally. So is it fair to say I could assume like a 2% clickthrough or a 1% clickthrough, or even worse in some cases based on that referral and then reverse engineer, basically divide those clicks by the clickthrough rate and essentially get a rough share of voice metric on that platform? Yeah. Avinash Kaushik: So, so for, um, kind of, kind of at the moment, the problem is that unlike Google giving us some decent amount of data through webmaster tools. None of these LLMs are giving us any data. As a business owner, none of them are giving us any data. So we're relying on third parties like Tracker. We're relying on third parties like Evert Tune. You understand? How often are we showing up so we could get a damn click through, right? Right. We don't quite have that for now. So the AI Brand Index in Evert Tune comes the closest. Giving you some information we could use in the, so your thinking is absolutely right. Your recommendation is ly, right? Even if you can just get the number of clicks, even if you're tracking them very [00:29:00] carefully, it's very important. Please do exactly what you said. Make the channel, it's really important. But don't, don't read too much into the click-through rate bits, because we're missing the. We're missing a very important piece of information. Now remember when Google first came out, we didn't have tons of data. Um, and that's okay. These LLMs Pro probably will realize over time if they get into the advertising business that it's nice to give data out to other people, and so we might get more data. Until then, we are relying on these third parties that are hacking these tools to find us some data. So we can use it to understand, uh, some of the things we readily understand about keywords and things today related to Google. So we, we sadly don't have as much visibility today as we would like to have. George Weiner: Yeah. We really don't. Alright. I have, have a segment that I just invented. Just for you called Avanade's War Corner. And in Avanade's War Corner, I noticed that you go to war on various concepts, which I love because it brings energy and attention to [00:30:00] frankly data and finding answers in there. So if you'll humor me in our war corner, I wanna to go through some, some classic, classic avan. Um, all right, so can you talk to me a little bit about vanity metrics, because I think they are in play. Every day. Avinash Kaushik: Absolutely. No, no, no. Across the board, I think in whatever we do. So, so actually I'll, I'll, I'll do three. You know, so there's vanity metrics, activity metrics and outcome metrics. So basically everything goes into these three buckets essentially. So vanity metrics are, are the ones that are very easy to find, but them moving up and down has nothing to do with the number of donations you're gonna get as a nonprofit. They're just there to ease our ego. So, for example. Let's say we are a nonprofit and we run some display ads, so measure the number of impressions that were delivered for our display ad. That's a vanity metric. It doesn't tell you anything. You could have billions of impressions. You could have 10 impressions, doesn't matter, but it is easily [00:31:00] available. The count is easily available, so we report it. Now, what matters? What matters are, did anybody engage with the ad? What were the percent of people who hovered on the ad? What were the number of people who clicked on the ad activity metrics? Activity metrics are a little more useful than vanity metrics, but what does it matter for you as a non nonprofit? The number of donations you received in the last 24 hours. That's an outcome metric. Vanity activity outcome. Focus on activity to diagnose how well our campaigns or efforts are doing in marketing. Focus on outcomes to understand if we're gonna stay in business or not. Sorry, dramatic. The vanity metrics. Chasing is just like good for ego. Number of likes is a very famous one. The number of followers on a social paia, a very famous one. Number of emails sent is another favorite one. There's like a whole host of vanity metrics that are very easy to get. I cannot emphasize this enough, but when you unpack and or do meta-analysis of [00:32:00] relationship between vanity metrics and outcomes, there's a relationship between them. So we always advise people that. Start by looking at activity metrics to help you understand the user's behavior, and then move to understanding outcome metrics because they are the reason you'll thrive. You will get more donations or you will figure out what are the things that drive more donations. Otherwise, what you end up doing is saying. If I post provocative stuff on Facebook, I get more likes. Is that what you really wanna be doing? But if your nonprofit says, get me more likes, pretty soon, there's like a naked person on Facebook that gets a lot of likes, but it's corrupting. Yeah. So I would go with cute George Weiner: cat, I would say, you know, you, you get the generic cute cat. But yeah, same idea. The Internet's built on cats Avinash Kaushik: and yes, so, so that's why I, I actively recommend people stay away from vanity metrics. George Weiner: Yeah. Next up in War Corner, the last click [00:33:00] fallacy, right? The overweighting of this last moment of purchase, or as you'd maybe say in the do column of the See, think, do care. Avinash Kaushik: Yes. George Weiner: Yes. Avinash Kaushik: So when the, when the, when we all started to get Google Analytics, we got Adobe Analytics web trends, remember them, we all wanted to know like what drove the conversion. Mm-hmm. I got this donation for a hundred dollars. I got a donation for a hundred thousand dollars. What drove the conversion. And so what lo logically people would just say is, oh, where did this person come from? And I say, oh, the person came from Google. Google drove this conversion. Yeah, his last click analysis just before the conversion. Where did the person come from? Let's give them credit. But the reality is it turns out that if you look at consumer behavior, you look at days to donation, visits to donation. Those are two metrics available in Google. It turns out that people visit multiple times before [00:34:00] they make a donation. They may have come through email, their interest might have been triggered through your email. Then they suddenly remembered, oh yeah, yeah, I wanted to go to the nonprofit and donate something. This is Google, you. And then Google helps them find you and they come through. Now, who do you give credit Email or the Google, right? And what if you came 5, 7, 8, 10 times? So the last click fallacy is that it doesn't allow you to see the full consumer journey. It gives credit to whoever was the last person who sent you this, who introduced this person to your website. And so very soon we move to looking at what we call MTI, Multi-Touch Attribution, which is a free solution built into Google. So you just go to your multichannel funnel reports and it will help you understand that. One, uh, 150 people came from email. Then they came from Google. Then there was a gap of nine days, and they came back from Facebook and then they [00:35:00] converted. And what is happening is you're beginning to understand the consumer journey. If you understand the consumer journey better, we can come with better marketing. Otherwise, you would've said, oh, close shop. We don't need as many marketing people. We'll just buy ads on Google. We'll just do SEO. We're done. Oh, now you realize there's a more complex behavior happening in the consumer. They need to solve for email. You solve for Google, you need to solve Facebook. In my hypothetical example, so I, I'm very actively recommend people look at the built-in free MTA reports inside the Google nalytics. Understand the path flow that is happening to drive donations and then undertake activities that are showing up more often in the path, and do fewer of those things that are showing up less in the path. George Weiner: Bring these up because they have been waiting on my mind in the land of AEO. And by the way, we're not done with war. The war corner segment. There's more war there's, but there's more, more than time. But with both of these metrics where AEO, if I'm putting these glasses back on, comes [00:36:00] into play, is. Look, we're saying goodbye to frankly, what was probably somewhat of a vanity metric with regard to organic traffic coming in on that 10 facts about cube cats. You know, like, was that really how we were like hanging our hat at night, being like. Job done. I think there's very much that in play. And then I'm a little concerned that we just told everyone to go create an AEO channel on their Google Analytics and they're gonna come in here. Avinash told me that those people are buyers. They're immediately gonna come and buy, and why aren't they converting? What is going on here? Can you actually maybe couch that last click with the AI channel inbound? Like should I expect that to be like 10 x the amount of conversions? Avinash Kaushik: All we can say is it's, it's going to be people with high intention. And so with the businesses that I'm working with, what we are finding is that the conversion rates are higher. Mm. This game is too early to establish any kind of sense of if anybody has standards for AEO, they're smoking crack. Like the [00:37:00] game is simply too early. So what we I'm noticing is that in some cases, if the average conversion rate is two point half percent, the AEO traffic is converting at three, three point half. In two or three cases, it's converting at six, seven and a half. But there is not enough stability in the data. All of this is new. There's not enough stability in the data to say, Hey, definitely you can expect it to be double or 10% more or 50% more. We, we have no idea this early stage of the game, but, but George, if we were doing this again in a year, year and a half, I think we'll have a lot more data and we'll be able to come up with some kind of standards for, for now, what's important to understand is, first thing is you're not gonna rank in an answer engine. You just won't. If you do rank in an answer engine, you fought really hard for it. The person decided, oh my God, I really like this. Just just think of the user behavior and say, this person is really high intent because somehow [00:38:00] you showed up and somehow they found you and came to you. Chances are they're caring. Very high intent. George Weiner: Yeah. They just left a conversation with a super intelligent like entity to come to your freaking 2001 website, HTML CSS rendered silliness. Avinash Kaushik: Whatever it is, it could be the iffiest thing in the world, but they, they found me and they came to you and they decided that in the answer engine, they like you as the answer the most. And, and it took that to get there. And so all, all, all is I'm finding in the data is that they carry higher intent and that that higher intent converts into higher conversion rates, higher donations, as to is it gonna be five 10 x higher? It's unclear at the moment, but remember, the other reason you should care about it is. Every single day. As more people move away from Google search engines to answer engines, you're losing a ton of traffic. If somebody new showing up, treat them with, respect them with love. Treat them with [00:39:00] care because they're very precious. Just lost a hundred. Check the landing George Weiner: pages. 'cause you may be surprised where your front door is when complexity is bringing them to you, and it's not where you spent all of your design effort on the homepage. Spoiler. That's exactly Avinash Kaushik: right. No. Exactly. In fact, uh, the doping deeper into your websites is becoming even more prevalent with answer engines. Mm-hmm. Um, uh, than it used to be with search engines. The search always tried to get you the, the top things. There's still a lot of diversity. Your homepage likely is still only 30% of your traffic. Everybody else is landing on other homepage or as you call them, landing pages. So it's really, really important to look beyond your homepage. I mean, it was true yesterday. It's even truer today. George Weiner: Yeah, my hunch and what I'm starting to see in our data is that it is also much higher on the assisted conversion like it is. Yes. Yes, it is. Like if you have come to us from there, we are going to be seeing you again. That's right. That's right. More likely than others. It over indexes consistently for us there. Avinash Kaushik: [00:40:00] Yes. Again, it ties back to the person has higher intent, so if they didn't convert in that lab first session, their higher intent is gonna bring them back to you. So you are absolutely right about the data that you're seeing. George Weiner: Um, alright. War corner, the 10 90 rule. Can you unpack this and then maybe apply it to somebody who thinks that their like AI strategy is done? 'cause they spend $20 or $200 a month on some tool and then like, call it a day. 'cause they did ai. Avinash Kaushik: Yes, yes. No, it's, it's good. I, I developed it in context of analytics. When I was at my, uh, job at Intuit, I used to, I was at Intuit, senior director for research and analytics. And one of the things I found is people would consistently spend lots of money on tools in that time, web analytics tools, research tools, et cetera. And, uh, so they're spending a contract of a few hundred thousand dollars or hundreds of thousands of dollars, and then they give it to a fresh graduate to find insights. [00:41:00] I was like, wait, wait, wait. So you took this $300,000 thing and gave it to somebody. You're paying $45,000 a year. Who is young in their career, young in their career, and expecting them to make you tons of money using this tool? It's not the tool, it's the human. And so that's why I developed the the 10 90 rule, which is that if you have a, if you have a hundred dollars to invest in making smarter decisions, invest $10 in the tool, $90 in the human. We all have access to so much data, so much complexity. The world is changing so fast that it is the human that is going to figure out how to make sense of these insights rather than the tool magically spewing and understanding your business enough to tell you exactly what to do. So that, that's sort of where the 10 90 rule came from. Now, sort of we are in this, in this, um, this is very good for nonprofits by the way. So we're in this era. Where On the 90 side? No. So the 10, look, don't spend insane money on tools that is just silly. So don't do that. Now the 90, let's talk about the [00:42:00] 90. Up until two years ago, I had to spell all of the 90 on what I now call organic humans. You George Weiner: glasses wearing humans, huh? Avinash Kaushik: The development of LLM means that every single nonprofit in the world has access to roughly a third year bachelor's degree student. Like a really smart intern. For free. For free. In fact, in some instances, for some nonprofits, let's say I I just reading about this nonprofit that is cleaning up plastics in the ocean for this particular nonprofit, they have access to a p HT level environmentalist using the latest Chad GP PT 4.5, like PhD level. So the little caveat I'm beginning to put in the 10 90 rule is on the 90. You give the 90 to the human and for free. Get the human, a very smart Bachelor's student by using LLMs in some instances. Get [00:43:00] for free a very smart TH using the LLMs. So the LLMs have now to be incorporated into your research, into your analysis, into building a next dashboard, into building a next website, into building your next mobile game into whatever the hell you're doing for free. You can get that so you have your organic human. Less the synthetic human for free. Both of those are in the 90 and, and for nonprofit, so, so in my work at at Coach and Kate Spade. I have access now to a couple of interns who do free work for me, well for 20 minor $20 a month because I have to pay for the plus version of G bt. So the intern costs $20 a month, but I have access to this syn synthetic human who can do a whole lot of work for me for $20 a month in my case, but it could also do it for free for you. Don't forget synthetic humans. You no longer have to rely only on the organic humans to do the 90 part. You would be stunned. Upload [00:44:00] your latest, actually take last year's worth of donations, where they came from and all this data from you. Have a spreadsheet lying around. Dump it into chat. GPT, I'll ask it to analyze it. Help you find where most donations came from, and visualize trends to present to board of directors. It will blow your mind how good it is at do it with Gemini. I'm not biased, I'm just seeing chat. GPD 'cause everybody knows it so much Better try it with mistrial a, a small LLM from France. So I, I wanna emphasize that what has changed over the last year is the ability for us to compliment our organic humans with these synthetic entities. Sometimes I say synthetic humans, but you get the point. George Weiner: Yeah. I think, you know, definitely dump that spreadsheet in. Pull out the PII real quick, just, you know, make me feel better as, you know, the, the person who's gonna be promoting this to everybody, but also, you know, sort of. With that. I want to make it clear too, that like actually inside of Gemini, like Google for nonprofits has opened up access to Gemini for free is not a per user, per whatever. You have that [00:45:00] you have notebook, LLM, and these. Are sitting in their backyards for free every day and it's like a user to lose it. 'cause you have a certain amount of intelligence tokens a day. Can you, I just like wanna climb like the tallest tree out here and just start yelling from a high building about this. Make the case of why a nonprofit should be leveraging this free like PhD student that is sitting with their hands underneath their butts, doing nothing for them right now. Avinash Kaushik: No, it is such a shame. By the way, I cannot add to your recommendation in using your Gemini Pro account if it's free, on top of, uh, all the benefits you can get. Gemini Pro also comes with restrictions around their ability to use your data. They won't, uh, their ability to put your data anywhere. Gemini free versus Gemini Pro is a very protected environment. Enterprise version. So more, more security, more privacy, et cetera. That's a great benefit. And by the way, as you said, George, they can get it for free. So, um, the, the, the, the posture you should adopt is what big companies are doing, [00:46:00] which is anytime there is a job to be done, the first question you, you should ask is, can I make the, can an AI do the job? You don't say, oh, let me send it to George. Let me email Simon, let me email Sarah. No, no, no. The first thing that should hit your head is. I do the job because most of the time for, again, remember, third year bachelor's degree, student type, type experience and intelligence, um, AI can do it better than any human. So your instincts to be, let me outsource that kind of work so I can free up George's cycles for the harder problems that the AI cannot solve. And by the way, you can do many things. For example, you got a grant and now Meta allows you to run X number of ads for free. Your first thing, single it. What kind of ad should I create? Go type in your nonprofit, tell it the kind of things you're doing. Tell it. Tell it the donations you want, tell it the size, donation, want. Let it create the first 10 ads for you for free. And then you pick the one you like. And even if you have an internal [00:47:00] designer who makes ads, they'll start with ideas rather than from scratch. It's just one small example. Or you wanna figure out. You know, my email program is stuck. I'm not getting yield rates for donations. The thing I want click the button that called that is called deep research or thinking in the LL. Click one of those two buttons and then say, I'm really struggling. I'm at wits end. I've tried all these things. Write all the detail. Write all the detail about what you've tried and now working. Can you please give me three new ideas that have worked for nonprofits who are working in water conservation? Hmm. This would've taken a human like a few days to do. You'll have an answer in under 90 seconds. I just give two simple use cases where we can use these synthetic entities to send us, do the work for us. So the default posture in nonprofits should be, look, we're resource scrapped anyway. Why not use a free bachelor's degree student, or in some case a free PhD student to do the job, or at least get us started on a job. So just spending 10 [00:48:00] hours on it. We only spend the last two hours. The entity entity does the first date, and that is super attractive. I use it every single day in, in one of my browsers. I have three traps open permanently. I've got Claude, I've got Mistrial, I've got Charge GPT. They are doing jobs for me all day long. Like all day long. They're working for me. $20 each. George Weiner: Yeah, it's an, it, it, it's truly, it's an embarrassment of riches, but also getting back to the, uh, the 10 90 is, it's still sitting there. If you haven't brought that capacity building to the person on how to prompt how to play that game of linguistic tennis with these tools, right. They're still just a hammer on a. Avinash Kaushik: That's exactly right. That's exactly right. Or, or in your case, you, you have access to Gemini for nonprofits. It's a fantastic tool. It's like a really nice card that could take you different places you insist on cycling everywhere. It's, it's okay cycle once in a while for health reasons. Otherwise, just take the car, it's free. George Weiner: Ha, you've [00:49:00] been so generous with your time. Uh, I do have one more quick war. If you, if you have, have a minute, uh, your war on funnels, and maybe this is not. Fully fair. And I am like, I hear you yelling at me every time I'm showing our marketing funnel. And I'm like, yeah, but I also have have a circle over here. Can you, can you unpack your war on funnels and maybe bring us through, see, think, do, care and in the land of ai? Avinash Kaushik: Yeah. Okay. So the marketing funnel is very old. It's been around for a very long time, and once I, I sort of started working at Google, access to lots more consumer research, lots more consumer behavior. Like 20 years ago, I began to understand that there's no such thing as funnel. So what does the funnel say? The funnel says there's a group of people running around the world, they're not aware of your brand. Find them, scream at them, spray and pray advertising at them, make them aware, and then somehow magically find the exact same people again and shut them down the fricking funnel and make them consider your product.[00:50:00] And now that they're considering, find them again, exactly the same people, and then shove them one more time. Move their purchase index and then drag them to your website. The thing is this linearity that there's no evidence in the universe that this linearity exists. For example, uh, I'm going on a, I like long bike rides, um, and I just got thirsty. I picked up the first brand. I could see a water. No awareness, no consideration, no purchase in debt. I just need water. A lot of people will buy your brand because you happen to be the cheapest. I don't give a crap about anything else, right? So, um, uh, uh, the other thing to understand is, uh, one of the brands I adore and have lots of is the brand. Patagonia. I love Patagonia. I, I don't use the word love for I think any other brand. I love Patagonia, right? For Patagonia. I'm always in the awareness stage because I always want these incredible stories that brand ambassadors tell about how they're helping the environment. [00:51:00] I have more Patagonia products than I should have. I'm already customer. I'm always open to new considerations of Patagonia products, new innovations they're bringing, and then once in a while, I'm always in need to buy a Patagonia product. I'm evaluating them. So this idea that the human is in one of these stages and your job is to shove them down, the funnel is just fatally flawed, no evidence for it. Instead, what you want to do is what is Ash's intent at the moment? He would like environmental stories about how we're improving planet earth. Patagonia will say, I wanna make him aware of my environmental stories, but if they only thought of marketing and selling, they wouldn't put me in the awareness because I'm already a customer who buys lots of stuff from already, right? Or sometimes I'm like, oh, I'm, I'm heading over to London next week. Um, I need a thing, jacket. So yeah, consideration show up even though I'm your customer. So this seating do care is a framework that [00:52:00] says, rather than shoving people down things that don't exist and wasting your money, your marketing should be able to discern any human's intent and then be able to respond with a piece of content. Sometimes that piece of content in an is an ad. Sometimes it's a webpage, sometimes it's an email. Sometimes it's a video. Sometimes it's a podcast. This idea of understanding intent is the bedrock on which seat do care is built about, and it creates fully customer-centric marketing. It is harder to do because intent is harder to infer, but if you wanna build a competitive advantage for yourself. Intent is the magic. George Weiner: Well, I think that's a, a great point to, to end on. And again, so generous with, uh, you know, all the work you do and also supporting nonprofits in the many ways that you do. And I'm, uh, always, always watching and seeing what I'm missing when, um, when a new, uh, AKA's Razor and Newsletter come out. So any final sign off [00:53:00] here on how do people find you? How do people help you? Let's hear it. Avinash Kaushik: You can just Google or answer Engine Me. It's, I'm not hard. I hard to find, but if you're a nonprofit, you can sign up for my newsletter, TMAI marketing analytics newsletter. Um, there's a free one and a paid one, so you can just sign up for the free one. It's a newsletter that comes out every five weeks. It's completely free, no strings or anything. And that way I'll be happy to share my stories around better marketing and analytics using the free newsletter for you so you can sign up for that. George Weiner: Brilliant. Well, thank you so much, Avan. And maybe, maybe we'll have to take you up on that offer to talk sometime next year and see, uh, if maybe we're, we're all just sort of, uh, hanging out with synthetic humans nonstop. Thank you so much. It was fun, George. [00:54:00]

There's a lot of fear and misinformation around HRT, and one of the biggest myths is that HT is a highly significant cause of breast cancer. That is not the case. This is a remnant concept from 2002, with MANY caveats. Calls for the removal of the black box warning on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) stems primarily from the outdated and limited nature of the data from the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study published in 2002. The WHI, while groundbreaking at the time, focused predominantly on a specific formulation of conjugated equine estrogens (CEE) and medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) in older, postmenopausal women, leading to concerns about its generalizability to the broader population of women considering HRT. This is why on July 17, 2025, the FDA met with a panel of experts, in open forum, to hear the petition of removing the black box warning on hormone replacement therapy. Listen in for details. 1.
