Podcasts about Ihme

Wer geglaubt hat, dass das Ihme-Zentrum mit der Zahlungsunfähigkeit des Haupteigentümers und Spekulanten Lars Windhorst und dem begonnenen Insolvenzverfahren in ruhiges Fahrwasser gerät, wird enttäuscht. Hinter den Kulissen wird um hohe Millionenbeträge gepokert. Ein Unternehmer aus Hamburg hat jetzt bei Gericht die erneute Zwangsversteigerung der Ihme-Zentrums-Anteile beantragt. Er heißt Ulrich Marseille, und mein Reporterkollege Conrad von Meding bezeichnet ihn als Geldjongleur - und erklärt "Klar so weit?"-Host Volker Wiedersheim die Hintergründe.

Kuinka ristiriitaiset tunteet mahtuvat samaan hetkeen, ja miten pahin pelkosi voikin olla parasta, mitä tulet kohtaamaan.

Blomis on taas lueskellut lastenkirjoja ja selaillut levykaupan tarjontaa. Ei tosin yhtäaikaa, mutta kuitenkin lopputulemana on pohdiskelua muodonmuutoksen sietämättömästä ihmeellisyydestä. Satunnainen luontomiehemme leijuu omissa verbaalisissa ulottuvuuksissaan kukasta kukkaan kuin kaunis heleä perhonen. Oletko sinä muuten nähnyt tänä kesänä toukkia?

Am Ufer der Ihme liegt die Leiche eines jungen Mannes. Inlineskates an den Füßen, Würgemale am Hals, Kopfhörer in den Ohren. Ein Fall für Rita Aitzinger und Ilia Schuster von der Mordkommission. Bei ihrer Spurensuche geraten beide immer tiefer in ein Dickicht aus Hinweisen und Verweisen. Jakob Nolte ist 1988 geboren und in Barsinghausen am Deister aufgewachsen. Sein Buch "Schreckliche Gewalten" war 2017 für den Deutschen Buchpreis nominiert. In seinem neuen Roman "Die Frau mit den vier Armen" stellt Nolte die tiefgründige Frage, ob man sich am Denken anderer schuldig machen kann. Und er zeigt Hannover vielleicht von einer noch nicht gekannten Seite. Martina Kothe hat Jakob Nolte getroffen und ist mit ihm an die Schauplätze des Romans gegangen. Was hat ihn bewegt, diese abgründige, kluge Geschichte zu schreiben?

This episode is the lively conversation J. Stephen Morrison had the pleasure to hold with Dr. Angela Apeagyei and Dr. Chris Murray, IHME at CSIS on May 14. It begins with the compelling findings of the 15th IHME annual report Financing Global Health 2023. Global health is beset by high interest rates, the rising claim on resources for climate, costly geopolitical ‘forever' wars, and an era of populism and multiple elections. What are the elements of a proactive, updated strategy to sustain support for global health? Give a listen!

Mikä miehen sadoista miljoonista siittiöistä pääsee hedelmöittämään naisen munasolun? Satunnainen siittiöiden uintikilpailu ei kuitenkaan ratkaise peliä. Hedelmöittyminen tunnetaan jokseenkin huonosti, mutta tutkimus tarjoaa uutta tietoa. Yhdyntään johtava valinta tapahtuu luonnollisesti yksilöiden välillä. Nyt on tietoa, että valintaa tapahtuu myös sukusolutasolla, munasolun ja siittiöiden kesken. Mitä ovat valintaan johtavat periaatteet? Onko immuunijärjestelmän HLA-geeneillä roolia? Ja miten asiaa voidaan tutkia? Itä-Suomen yliopistossa professori Jukka Kekäläisen johdolla on kehitetty malli, jossa voidaan laboratorio-olosuhteissa mitata siittiöiden liikettä ja elinkykyä naisen lisääntymiselimistöä simuloivissa olosuhteissa. Apua näytteiden keräämiseen saatiin hedelmöityshoitoklinikasta. Biologi Annalaura Jokiniemi sai käyttöönsä lapsettomuushoidossa olevien naisten munarakkulanestettä ja kohdunkaulan limaa. Nämä näytteet ja mainosten perusteella mukaan tulleiden miesten siittiöt saatettiin maljalla yhteen. Ohjelmassa mukana Jokiniemen ohella SPR:n veripalvelun tutkimusjohtaja, immunologi Jukka Partanen. Tuloksia kommentoi molekyyligenetiikan professori Juha Kere Karoliinisesta instituutista. Toimittaja on Teija Peltoniemi.

Suomeen saapui 50 vuotta sitten ensimmäiset Euroopan ulkopuoliset pakolaiset. Parin sadan chileläispakolaisen joukolla oli keskeinen rooli Suomen maahanmuutto- ja pakolaispolitiikan muotoutumisessa. Mitä chileläisten kotoutumisesta Suomeen voitaisiin oppia nykypäivänä? Ohjelmassa tavataan ensimmäisen ja toisen polven chileläissuomalaisia. Lisäksi kuullaan Chilen sotilasjuntan kynsistä pari tuhatta ihmistä pelastaneelta suomalaisdiplomaatilta, voisiko sama temppu onnistua nykyään. Maailmanpolitiikan arkipäivää -ohjelman on toimittanut Paula Vilén. Äänitarkkailijana on Matias Puumala. Kuva: Tuuli Laukkanen/Yle.

Sinä olet luonut minut sisintäni myöten, äitini kohdussa olet minut punonut. Minä olen ihme, suuri ihme, ja kiitän sinua siitä. Ihmeellisiä ovat sinun tekosi, minä tiedän sen. (Ps.139:13-14)Minä olen saanut hahmoni näkymättömissä, muotoni kuin syvällä maan alla, mutta sinulta ei pieninkään luuni ole salassa. Sinun silmäsi näkivät minut jo idullani, sinun kirjaasi on kaikki kirjoitettu. Ennen kuin olin elänyt päivääkään, olivat kaikki päiväni jo luodut. Kuinka ylivertaisia ovatkaan sinun suunnitelmasi, Jumala, kuinka valtava onkaan niiden määrä! Jos yritän niitä laskea, niitä on enemmän kuin on hiekanjyviä. Minä lopetan, mutta tiedän: sinä olet kanssani. (Ps.139:15-18)Tutki minut, Jumala, katso sydämeeni. Koettele minua, katso ajatuksiini. Katso, olenko vieraalla, väärällä tiellä, ja ohjaa minut ikiaikojen tielle. (Ps.139:23-24) 

Wieder einmal sind Träume für das Ihme-Zentrum ausgeträumt. Gegen Lars Windhorst, Spekulant und Großeigentümer der wichtigsten Gewerbeflächen und weiterer Bereich der Schandfleck-Immobilie, ist Insolvenzantrag gestellt. Und nun will er nichts mehr investieren (wollte er das überhaupt jemals?). Felix Harbart und Conrad von Meding analysieren die neue Lage.

Ihme ja kumma tapahtui, sillä Popfiltter -kolmikko kävi oikeen elokuvateatterissa. Tämän ihmeen sai aikaiseksi jakson julkaisuhetkellä toista viikkoa Suomen katsotuimpana elokuvana pyörivä Lapua 1976. Jakso sisältää jonkin verran spoilereita, joten jos elokuva on vielä näkemättä, niin kipin kapin ensin teatteriin! Jakson lopussa on myös arvonta, jossa joku kuulijoista voi voittaa lipun leffaan, joten kuunnelkaahan koko homma tarkasti loppuun jotta tiedätte miten toimia!

Das Ihme-Zentrum. Vor 50 Jahren erdacht als die Zukunft des Urbanen. Heute ein städtebaulicher Horror. Mit feinen Wohnungen und bester Aussicht in den obersten Etagen, aber mit dystopischen Lost Places in den Sockelgeschossen. Und der größte Eigentümer der Flächen im Niedergang ist Lars Windhorst, ein sogenannter "Investor", der aber nicht investieren will. Oder kann. Ist das Ihme-Zentrum zu retten? Ist der Abriss irgendwann unausweichlich?

This post is a summary of some of my work as a field strategy consultant at Schmidt Futures' Act 2 program, where I spoke with over a hundred experts and did a deep dive into antimicrobial resistance to find impactful investment opportunities within the cause area. The full report can be accessed here.Antimicrobials, the medicines we use to fight infections, have played a foundational role in improving the length and quality of human life since penicillin and other antimicrobials were first developed in the early and mid 20th century.Antimicrobial resistance, or AMR, occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites evolve resistance to antimicrobials. As a result, antimicrobial medicine such as antibiotics and antifungals become ineffective and unable to fight infections in the body.AMR is responsible for millions of deaths each year, more than HIV or malaria (ARC 2022). The AMR Visualisation Tool, produced by Oxford University and IHME, visualises IHME data which finds that 1.27 million deaths per year are attributable to bacterial resistance and 4.95 million deaths per year are associated with bacterial resistance, as shown below.Source:https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/W93Pt7xch7eyrkZ7f/cause-area-report-antimicrobial-resistanceNarrated for the Effective Altruism Forum by TYPE III AUDIO.Share feedback on this narration.

Join me and Dr. Joel Fuhrman in a conversation about how to build up our immunity system in order to protect us from infectious diseases such as COVID-19. With health authorities' warnings about the potential of new flu epidemics and the global spread of viral illnesses, it is vital that we keep our immune system strong and know the the steps to take to protect ourselves and our families. Dr. Fuhrman is a true visionary and coined the term 'NUTRITARIAN diet'  - describing a nutrient dense way of eating, that strengthens our body from within. According to him the Standard American Diet (SAD) is a cancer generating diet. One of the main reason why so many younger people (under 65 years of age) in the USA die from COVID-19, is due to comorbidity, i.e. pre-existing diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cancer or cardio vascular issues. The last two, being the top killer with over 27.4m people dying from it each year globally (2017, IHME, Global Burden of Diseases published by The Lancet).

As part of our series on China post-COVID-19, Chris Murray reflects on where things stand, almost two months after President Xi threw off Zero-Covid controls.  A huge Covid-19 wave has likely led thus far to a million deaths. It is likely not over. Don't expect greater Chinese government transparency on numbers. That remains a highly sensitive matter domestically and, no less important, an integral component of China's foreign policy image and prestige. The Chinese government is driving to get through the outbreak as fast as possible, tough it out, and reopen the economy. China's elderly bear the biggest toll.

Reducing maternal mortality through informed family planning In June 2021, we founded Lafiya Nigeria, a non-profit organisation that works toward ending maternal mortality in Nigeria by widening the access and information about family planning. TL; DR Introduction to our organisation in a 3-min video This post describes (I) the challenge we aim to solve, (II) our approach, (III), our traction, (IV) our value-add, (V) our plans, (VI) how you can get involved in our initative. (I) The challenge In low and middle-income countries, women are dying from giving life. Nearly 300,000 women and girls are dying from pregnancy-related complications each year, according to the Guttmacher Institute. Other health complications such as obstetric fistula, postpartum anemia, and postnatal depression are also key health burdens borne by pregnant women. Reducing the number of unintended pregnancies is an effective means of reducing health burdens for mothers and newborns. Despite a significant number of women in these countries wanting to avoid pregnancy, many are not using modern contraceptives, resulting in 85 million unintended pregnancies per year. If all women with unmet need were provided access to and used modern contraceptives, the Lancet estimated that maternal deaths globally would drop 44%. An estimated 70,000 maternal deaths could be prevented each year, with 441,000 new-born deaths also averted. Additionally, the Guttmacher Institute estimates that every dollar spent on contraceptive services beyond the current level would reduce the cost of pregnancy-related and newborn care by three dollars. The Copenhagen Consensus also found that every dollar spent on access to modern contraception leads to 120 dollars of social, economic, and environmental benefits. Access to family planning is beyond a health issue: its dividends are seen also in positive effects on education, income generation, and children's welfare. A study in Indonesia found that providing access to family planning was three times more effective than improving school quality in keeping girls in school an extra year. Research in Colombia found that girls with access to family planning clinics were 7% more likely to participate in the formal workforce as adults. Long-term studies have also shown that providing access to family planning programs can lead to improved college completion rates of children and higher family incomes decades later. These spillover effects are difficult to measure and are often neglected in traditional cost-effectiveness analyses. In recent years, there has been an increase in the use of modern contraceptives in countries like Nigeria but there has also been an increase in the unmet need. From 2012 to 2019, the portion of women using contraceptives in Nigeria rose from 11.2% to 14.2%, while the unmet need also rose from 22.4% to 23.7%. These figures are greatly exaggerated Focus: Nigeria Lafiya Nigeria focuses on rural and underserved regions of northern Nigeria Nigeria has >45M women of child-bearing age, and 65% have unmet contraceptive needs (IHME), resulting in around 40,000 maternal deaths a year. In Nigeria, over 83% of women had not used any contraceptive methods for family prevention in 2018. This rate reached 96% among women without any education. This staggering gap in health provision results in maternal and infant deaths. In Nigeria, over 40,000 women die each year from pregnancy-related issues. The loss of life does end with mother, either. Over one million children under the age of five also die as a result of losing their mothers to pregnancy delivery complications. In our pilot region, Jigawa, more than 98% of women have no prior contraceptive use due to stockouts ...

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: What you can do to help stop violence against women and girls, published by Akhil on January 12, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Introduction I previously wrote an entry for the Open Philanthropy Cause Exploration Prize on why preventing violence against women and girls is a global priority. For an introduction to the area, I have written a brief summary below. In this post, I will extend that work, diving deeper into the literature and the landscape of organisations in the field, as well as creating a cost-effectiveness model for some of the most promising preventative interventions. Based on this, I will offer some concrete recommendations that different stakeholders should take - from individuals looking to donate, to funders, to charity evaluators and incubators. The key recommendations I make, in order of importance, are: Support community-based interventions that seek to shift harmful gender norms and reduce violence- they have a high quality of evidence, and cost $180/DALY (disability adjusted life years) or $150 for a woman to live a year free from violence. Two particularly promising organisations are CEDOVIP and Raising Voices. Fund and conduct a well-designed randomised control trial of radio or television dramas to shift harmful gender norms and reduce violence- they have a startling cost-effectiveness of $13/DALY or $11 for a woman to live a year free from violence, but currently lacks a well-established evidence base. Fund organisations undertaking economic programs supporting women (e.g. microfinancing, cash transfers, village savings and loans association) to add on social empowerment programs focused on reducing violence; they have a cost-effectiveness of $180/DALY, or $145 for a woman to live a year free from violence. Found new charities focused on community-based interventions that seek to shift harmful gender norms and reduce violence, particularly in neglected geographies and populations Consider supporting self-defence training programs - although analysis suggests that self-defence training may not be as cost-effective as other interventions for VAWG, it is nevertheless a relatively cost-effective (at $260/DALY or $215 for a woman to live a year free from violence) and potentially scalable intervention. No Means No Worldwide and Ujamaa appear to be two organisations scaling this intervention well. Fund academic research to understand what types of culture change programs targeting boys and men are most effective at reducing violence against women and girls You can find a 2 page summary of my initial post and this post here Why VAWG is an important cause area Nearly one third of women and girls aged 15 years of age or older have experienced either physical or sexual intimate partner violence (IPV) or non-partner sexual violence globally, with 13% (10–16%) experiencing it in 2018 alone (Sardinha et al 2022). It is one of the leading burdens of disease globally, responsible for 8.5 million DALYs and 68 500 deaths annually. In several countries, violence against women is in the top 3-5 leading causes of death for young women aged between 15 and 29 (Mendoza et al 2018). VAWG has wide-ranging effects on women's physical, sexual and mental health- in fact, it is responsible for 11% of the DALY burden of depressive disorders and 14% of the DALY burden of HIV in women (IHME 2019) Globally, the rates of VAWG are both alarmingly high and have increased over the last 30 years, despite gains in other areas of women's health, such as maternal care (Think Global Health). In 2016, the global economic cost of violence against women was estimated by the UN to be US$1.5 trillion, equivalent to approximately 2% of the global GDP (UN Women 2016). Although there are many groups working to stop VAWG, it is fairly neglected relative to the scale of harm that it...

In this podcast, Dr. Eeks chats with Dr. Christopher Murray about his recent article published in The Lancet (2022) titled The Global Burden of Cancer Attributable to Risk Factors, 2010-2019, a Systematic Analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. This is the largest effort to date to determine the gobal burden of cancer due to risk factors. He will discuss what the global burden of disease study is, how he and his team estimated the burden of cancer, the risk factors and the assessment framework used to link specific cancers to specific risks, what percentage of cancer is attributed to risk factors, what the greatest risks are, differences in high income vs low income countries and public health implications. Dr. Murray is Chair of Health Metrics Sciences at the University of Washington and Director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME). He also leads the Global Burden of Disease collaboration ( a systemic effort to quantify the comparitive magnitude of health loss due to diseases, injuries and risk factors.)He is both a physician and a health economist and his work has led to innovative methods for strengthening health measurements, analyzing the performance of health systems and producing forecasts for the future state of health. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the White House, European Commission, WHO EURO and Africa CDC have used IHME forecasts and policy scenarios as sources of evidence.

President Biden's statement on the Covid pandemic...

Koko Lapissa väki vähenee, mutta moni pieni kunta on hyötynyt korona-ajasta. ”Kyllä Salla vielä tästäkin joukosta erottuu”, tutkija sanoo.

Lt Col Ihme is the Commander of th 232nd Intel Squadron ,132nd  Wing, Iowa National Guard.   I was interested in her journey with being a parent of two autistic children and how she navigated the entire process of getting resources before and after a PCS and the  issues with getting children the help they needed and the energy required to advocate for them while being an active duty commander.    Her story is compelling but as I am learning not unique.  I hope by doing this segment as with the other segments on parents with special needs children, I have opened the door to more discussion on how we can navigate this journey together. Support the show

On this 146th episode, Dr. Chris Murray, IHME, delivers several sharp messages. Tracking Covid is increasingly difficult, a function of both underreporting of cases and overreporting of incidental hospital admissions. Studies are emerging which suggest that protection against severe ill and death may be waning after 20 weeks. Without far better data on hospital admissions, however, we are “flying blind.” Essential “big” investments in next-generation vaccines that block infections and address multiple variants are expensive. Without ample funding, we will “muddle through.” The case for Paxlovid as a lead global tool is strong, but production is expensive. Is Monkeypox “a really scary thing? No!” China clings to Zero-Covid for more than health reasons. That choice is “part of a broader geopolitical strategy.” Hope rests on strong and vibrant scientific cooperation, amid multiple crises.

Ihme Kuka ei usko ihmeisiin? Eihän käveleminenkään ole itsestäänselvyys, ei tahaton laihuus, taikka pyyleyvyys Ei kaikilla ole käsiä, enkä nyt tarkoita vain pässiä. Ihme on jokainen vauva , ihminen, kissa, tai hauva. Ihme on sauva vanhuksen, jo Rautavaara totesi laulussaan sen. Ihme on käsiä liikuttaa, ihme, että puhdasta ilmaa hengittää saa. Ihme on jokainen taideteos, jokaisen valokuvan koevedos. Ihme, joka lauluna kurkusta kimpoaa, ihme saa joet virtaamaan. Katso tarkkaan ja huomaat sen, ilman ihmeitä on vaikea olla ihminen.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: The IHME Report, published by Zvi on January 10, 2022 on LessWrong. An IHME report came out over the weekend. I was pleasantly surprised by it contents. Its conclusions and projections broadly match what I said in the last Omicron post, with only relatively minor obvious nonsense, and seemed worth their own post to break down. Headline Takeaways Our models for the United States suggest that infections may be currently peaking at 6 million a day, with varied peaks by state. We expect more than 50% of the US population will be infected with Omicron in the next 6 weeks. The infection-detection rate (IDR) is declining, although shortages of testing may lead to more rapid decreases in the IDR than we currently model. Nevertheless, we expect reported cases to exceed 1 million a day, peak by the third week of January, and then decline sharply. I too expect reported cases to peak during the third week of January (to be clear, when I say we will peak on 19 January, I mean cases detected on 19 January, not infections that happen on 19 January. If counting from initial infections, I'd have said 16 January, but it's hard to ever know what the actual lag was there.) Once the peak arrives, a sharp decline is to be expected shortly thereafter, although I still expect cases to remain elevated (above pre-Omicron levels) for several months. Note that ‘more than 50%' sounds like the kind of thing one says when one does not want to make a precise prediction, but there are graphs later on. Hospitalizations will increase to a peak that may be twice as high as last winter. These figures, however, include incidental admissions. Because the prevalence of Omicron infection is so high, many individuals hospitalized for other conditions will have asymptomatic infections. Incidental admissions may exceed 50% of total COVID-19 admissions in some states. Daily deaths will increase but remain below 2,000 a day, peaking by the end of the month. This means the peak of deaths will remain below the summer Delta surge and well below the peak last winter. That sounds like a best case scenario. If hospital admissions peak at twice last winter, but half of them are incidental, then things won't be substantially worse than last winter. We survived last winter. Deaths peaking below 2,000 per day means they won't even double once, and the peak will come within a few weeks. Expecting them to peak by month's end seems wrong given the historical lag times, but it's only a difference of a few weeks. Words of high wisdom follow, noting that all of this is baked in. Our alternative policy scenarios, including more rapid scale-up of boosters to all who have been previously vaccinated, increasing mask use to 80%, and vaccinating the partially hesitant, have only a small impact on the trajectory over the next 4 months. The speed of the epidemic is so fast that policy interventions will have little impact. In previous waves, the control strategy has been to control infection and thus reduce hospitalization and death. Given that there is little prospect of controlling infection, strategies need to focus on reducing harm in the vulnerable and minimizing disruption. It is essentially too late to do anything but mitigation. If the baseline scenario is as they describe (and roughly as I predict as well) then only those with a strong desire to avoid infection should do much. So this, very much this: Given the massive numbers of infections in the community, testing and quarantining asymptomatic individuals may not be helpful. There appears to be no prospect for controlling transmission and considerable prospect for disruption of schools and essential services due to screening. States may need to consider revisions to their testing and quarantine strategies. Quite right. Doing constant testing of asymptomatic schoolchildren ma...

This episode of Ask Theory features Dr. John Wong, a Filipino epidemiologist with over 30 years of experience in epidemiology and health systems research. In 2016, he became the first Filipino to win the Roux Prize, an international award that honors innovation in the application of disease burden research, from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) of the University of Washington. He is a co-founder and current senior technical adviser of EpiMetrics, a public health research firm, where he continues to work with the Department of Health, IHME, and USAID, among others, in reforming the health system, while training and working with young researchers in public health. We talked about what Pinoys need to know about COVID-19 vaccines, what we can and can't do after getting the COVID-19 vaccine, how to prepare ourselves in case a family member gets infected, how COVID-19 variants affect vaccine effectiveness, why we're sure that COVID-19 vaccines are safe and that they weren't “rushed,” and more. This special episode was made possible by EpiMetrics, a Philippine-based health research institution, as part of a special initiative called Life Stages: How to Do Everything Again Differently.

One year since the start of the pandemic, what have we learned about COVID-19 and how much work remains to curb the disease? WMFE health reporter Abe Aboraya and Dr. Ali Mokdad with the IHME join Intersection to discuss. Plus- conversations about mental health and vaccine disparity.

On June 10th, Greg Glassman stepped down from his position as CEO of CrossFit, and on this segment of Business Casual, Tyler Kern, Taylor Bagley, and Daniel Litwin opine on whether or not this move will be enough to ensure the future of the company as well as many of its affiliate gyms. Established in 2000 and characterized by high-intensity functional interval training and sound nutrition practices, CrossFit has been a highly popular health and fitness lifestyle solution that enables members to accomplish any goal—from improved health to weight loss to better performance. Boasting a network of more than 13,000 affiliates around the world with over 7,000 gyms offering the program in the US alone, it's estimated that there are roughly 4 million CrossFitters so devoted to this competitive approach to fitness that the community has often been described as cult-like. Well, Mr. Glassman's recent insensitive remarks regarding George Floyd as well as the COVID-19 pandemic on social media and via email may have driven a wedge in this close-‘fit' community, alienating members and gyms alike while outraging socially-oriented organizations like Black Lives Matter, medical-focused groups like the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), and even the NFL. Litwin, Kern and Bagley chat about the many companies and brands that have crafted statements in support of the BLM movement and the fact that CrossFit remained silent during these weeks of nationwide protests and civil unrest, the racially and socially tactless tweets and emails between Glassman and the IHME and several of his affiliate gyms that sparked this national scandal, the proposed withdrawal of many gym affiliates from their contracts with the company, name brands like Reebok, FitAid and Rogue severing their partnerships with CrossFit, and the financial bind gyms are already facing due to pandemic social distancing and how Glassman's callous statements will further tip the fiscal scale for these workout locations as we move into the future.

猜猜台灣最嚴重的疾病是什麼？揭曉答案之前，讓我們從一則國際新聞談起。2017年1月，梅琳達和比爾·蓋茲基金會向華盛頓大學的一個計畫捐贈2.79億美元，以追蹤世界各地的健康和死亡數據。當時是蓋茲基金會歷來規模最大的一次捐贈，捐贈的對象是一個叫做IHME的機構。這個機構是甚麼？為什麼它得到比爾蓋茲這麼大的捐助？為什麼過去的調查，會讓全世界的人都「死三遍」？人不是只能死一遍嗎？為什麼IHME的調查可以避免這種錯誤？為何它可以揭開全世界70億人受傷、生病與死亡的真相，甚至有助於拯救生命？原來IHME大約九成的力量，都投入GBD（全球疾病負擔）計畫，不但可以告訴我們，全世界各地區造成死亡最多的疾病是什麼，做出排名，更可以反映全人類與各國的健康狀況，例如「失能」而生活無法自理的狀況如何。它到底是怎麼做到的？台大公衛學院的林先和教授，是台灣少數實際參與GBD計畫的學者，本集特別與聽眾分享這項計畫的重點。今天，GBD的調查在全球已經贏得權威地位，我國的衛福部也提供完整的資料，讓GBD報告中顯示的台灣現況更貼近真實。於是，林教授更可以有把握地回答：台灣最嚴重的疾病是什麼？為什麼他說所謂「十大死因」，其實不是「因」，而是「果」？哪些事情，是威脅台灣健康最大的「危險因子」？又給我們哪些啟示呢？健康是最大的財富，而要保障健康，就要知道破壞健康的殺手是什麼，進而防範。這集分享的全球與台灣生死大數據，正由統計出發，給我們重要的參考！

Tyrone Grandison joins us and shares that you need to focus on the customer and that your business is an IT business. First, "You need to be focused acutely on your customer, your client. So, I run the technology department, so my customer is everyone that is at IHME, and the 3,000 collaborators that depend upon us, right? Plus everyone that actually uses our results, etc, etc, etc. My thing is, how do I actually make them efficient, make them happy, and make sure that whatever I do fits within their workflow? Creating a separate entity to actually do that." And second, "IT is a business driver, IT should be at the table when you actually make decisions. All decisions should be about what the core mission is, which is completely ... Well, not completely different, but a different way of thinking about it. But, if you don't believe that IT is going to actually help you be more efficient, is going to support your task, is going to drive you to actually more profit, more growth, more impact."
