Recorded at Posidonia 2026 in Greece, this episode of the Seatrade Maritime podcast features correspondent Gary Howard in conversation with Maria Kyratsoudi, business development director, Greece, at ABS.Together they explore how Greek shipowners are responding to tightening IMO and EU regulations, and why energy efficiency and performance optimisation are taking priority over early bets on alternative fuels.In this episode:ABS as “Greece's trusted class” How ABS's role has evolved from traditional classification to technical and sustainability advisor.Expanded engineering, sustainability, and advisory capabilities for Greek clients.Newbuilding trends in the Greek fleetStrong increase in tanker, VLCC/Suezmax, and bulk carrier orders, with LNG and LPG also in the mix.How owners are aligning fleet renewal with regulatory and commercial pressures.Decarbonisation and regulation: IMO + EU Why Greek owners are looking at the combined impact of IMO and EU rules rather than single regulations in isolation.The drive for energy efficiency upgrades, fuel readiness, and robust compliance documentation.Efficiency first, fuels later Why the immediate focus is on energy efficiency and performance optimisation for both newbuilds and retrofits.Making vessels more commercially attractive through measurable real‑world gains.Digitalisation and data How regulatory demands for accurate data are pushing pragmatic adoption of digital tools.The link between digitalisation and decarbonisation, and using performance data to support charterers and financiers.
I Fired My Sister's Boyfriend For Cheating #imopodcast #relationshipdilemma #cheatingdebateA listener fired his sister's boyfriend after finding out he had cheated and used work shifts as his cover. Was he protecting his sister, or did he take their relationship problems too far?The IMO crew debates family loyalty, cheating, workplace boundaries, second chances, and whether relatives should get involved in relationship problems. They also compare Lagos nightlife with London nightlife, discuss bottle service, splitting club bills, and unpopular music opinions.Expect honest opinions, heated disagreements, funny stories, and another round of Don't Google It.
David Waldman and Greg Dworkin are here to box up today's chaos. ICE has announced a temporary reduction in streetside executions. Federal hitmen do not take out exactly the correct people but at least meet quotas. Susan Collins might be a little concerned that this would happen to her, but Trump could not be more delighted that someone handles this for him before he takes the Lugar over later in this term. This Thursday night, Donald K. Trump plans to make this Friday morning more stupid than any on record. IQs might remain at record lows for weeks. John Ossoff knows why Trump is doing this. In Michigan, the Senate race is wide open, although falling into maybe familiar patterns. Minnesota governor's race is falling into a psychedelic pattern. Democrats lead by 26 points among "double haters" because voters just can't find as much to hate them about. $5.6 million goes to E. Jean Carroll. Meh, Trump can clear that in three medium bribes. Too bad for Donald that a unitary executive can't sue themselves or he'd have the USA deposited in the Caymen Islands by now. The art of dealing with Trump is to never make a deal with Trump. It shouldn't take AI to tell you that DOGE used AI to create federal policy. New York becomes the first state to impose a data center moratorium. RIP, Pat Oliphant, IMO, the reason that several generations got into politics.
The International Maritime Organization says the Strait of Hormuz remains too dangerous for commercial vessels to transit, the most significant warning to the shipping industry about navigational safety since an interim peace deal between Washington and Tehran unraveled. Speaking on Bloomberg Radio, the Arsenio Dominguez, the secretary general of the IMO, said that the waterway remains unsafe.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Haseeb Jawad, VP and Head of Corporate Development, Commvault (NASDAQ: CVLT) The people who leave post-close are usually the ones the deal depended on. Which means the problem starts with how you read culture before LOI and whether financial incentives are the only retention tool you are building with. Haseeb Jawad heads corporate development at Commvault, running a lean team with full accountability from sourcing through integration. He has led two to three acquisitions per year across multiple companies, sat on both sides of a transaction, and serves as his own IMO lead. The signals that tell you a deal will lose people are visible from the first founder conversation, if you know what to look for. What You'll Learn The three signals to read in every founder conversation before LOI How the TRUST framework applies across the full deal lifecycle Why retention runs heart, brain, pocket and what breaks when you invert it How to run employee-by-employee diligence without treating people as a cost line Why owning both deal and integration makes business case assumptions honest What one payroll timing issue did to months of trust-building after close If you're managing a post-close retention risk and financial incentives are the only lever you're pulling, DealPilot, powered by M&A Science, has Buyer-Led M&A™ frameworks to help you build the full retention model. ____________________ This episode of M&A Science is presented by DealRoom.

In this IMO episode, I explain why I am seeking legal action against Brett Larner from Japan Running News over what I believe has been a sustained campaign of online harassment, false reporting, inflammatory articles, and ongoing anonymous forum-style attacks. This week, I was denied the chance to run for a charity at the Gold Coast Marathon, with Brett's articles specifically referenced as part of that decision, and this has been the final reason I feel legal action is now necessary. Links: Coaching: https://sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SweatElite Supporters Club: https://sweatelite.co/supporters-club/ In this episode, I talk through the full story from my time in Japan, including the detention situation, the media coverage that followed, and the way I believe the story has continued to be framed unfairly. I also discuss how these articles have affected me personally and professionally, including the recent Gold Coast Marathon charity rejection. I also give some broader updates on training, my return to running, parkrun, weight goals, and my plans for the Melbourne and Sydney Marathons. Later in the episode, I break down the origins of the media situation, the Ageo Half entry mix-up, the race ban fallout, the cannabis context, the online forum discussions, and why I now believe legal action is the only way forward.

VOV1 - Căng thẳng có dấu hiệu bùng phát giữa Iran và Oman xung quanh vấn đề eo biển Hocmuz, tuyến hàng hải chiến lược gắn liền với vùng biển hai nước.Phát biểu trong cuộc họp giữa Ngoại trưởng các nước vùng Vịnh và Ngoại trưởng Mỹ tại Manama, Bahrain chiều nay, Ngoại trưởng Oman Badr Albusaidi tuyên bố rằng các giải pháp liên quan vấn đề eo biển Hormuz trong tương lai, đều không có điều khoản về áp đặt thu phí. Trước đó, hôm qua, Oman cũng thông báo đã phối hợp với Tổ chức Hàng hải Quốc tế (IMO), công bố một hành lang tạm thời cho tàu thuyền lưu thông qua eo Hormuz. Động thái được tiến hành trong bối cảnh IMO vừa tuyên bố khởi động chiến dịch giải cứu hàng trăm tàu hàng bị mắc kẹt tại vịnh Ba Tư do xung đột bùng phát.Đáng chú ý, các bước đi mới của Oman được thực hiện sau khi nước này và Iran hồi đầu tuần thông báo đang thảo luận về xây dựng cơ chế quản lý chung eo biển Hormuz. Đồng thời, phía Iran liên tục nhấn mạnh quyền kiểm soát eo Hormuz và khẳng định sẽ thu phí tàu thuyền đi qua vùng biển này.Do đó, như một phản ứng tất yếu, chiều nay, Vệ binh Cách mạng Hồi giáo Iran (IRGC) đã đưa ra tuyên bố liên quan. Trong tuyên bố, Hải quân IRGC nhấn mạnh mọi quyết định hay chính sách liên quan eo biển Hormuz mà không thông qua trao đổi với Iran, đều không thể chấp nhận được. Đặc biệt, lực lượng này cảnh báo việc lưu thông qua các tuyến hàng hải không phải do Iran chỉ định, tiềm ẩn rủi ro an ninh rất lớn.Sau khi áp đặt phong tỏa eo biển Hormuz nhằm đáp trả chiến dịch tập kích quân sự của Mỹ và Israel từ cuối tháng 2/2026, Iran liên tục khẳng định chủ quyền và không ngừng mở rộng ảnh hưởng đối với tuyến hàng hải huyết mạch này./.PV Bá Thi /VOV Ai CậpCăng thẳng leo thang ở eo biển Hormuz liên quan đến thu phí tàu qua đây (ảnh Reuters)

Ireland is set for a significant spell of hot weather this week, with temperatures forecast to climb into the high 20s and potentially exceed 30 degrees in some areas. Met Éireann has issued a Status Yellow High Temperature Warning for the entire country, warning of heat stress, uncomfortable sleeping conditions and water safety concerns. While many people will welcome the sunshine, health experts are urging caution, particularly for older people, young children and those with underlying health conditions.

在增长点2025年是招商轮船正式进入穿梭油轮领域的元年,以签约1+1艘Suezmax级DPST为标志公司油运业务从远洋干线向深海油田服务延伸,形成了VLCC+Aframax+DPST的油轮矩阵。穿梭油轮(DPST)需要具备在海上油田浮仓旁精准定位、靠泊、装卸的能力,技术复杂度远超普通油轮。此次和巴西国油签署的长期期租,收入稳定性高,类似于LNG船的模式,但是预计IRR更高。依托于海宏香港50余年的大型油轮管理经验,穿梭油轮有望成为未来十年新的增长点。四、未来5年发展路径预测展望未来5年,招商轮船的发展将受到多重因素的影响:全球能源转型趋势、航运业绿色变革、地缘政治格局变化、以及公司自身的战略执行能力。将有以下几个特征第一:LNG船队进入集中交付期到2030年,公司LNG船订单将全部交付,运营船舶数量将从2024年的22艘提升至64艘,按照每艘LNG船年均贡献净利润约0.3-0.5亿元估算,到2027年,LNG业务净利润有望达到18-20亿元,成为公司很大的利润来源。第二:油运继续贡献主要利润来源从油运市场看,2026-2028年预计将处于上行周期。支撑这一判断因素很多,但是底层因素主要有三个:首先,OPEC+逐步退出减产,全球原油产量增加,将带动油运需求增长。其次,全球石油需求在2030年前仍将保持增长,特别是亚洲地区需求强劲。中国、印度等新兴经济体仍处于工业化和城市化进程中,石油需求仍有增长空间。最后,VLCC船队老龄化加剧,供给端约束日益明显。新船交付有限,而老旧船舶面临拆解压力,船队增长缓慢。基于以上因素,我们预测这一阶段VLCC TCE有望维持在较高的水平,TCE每增加1万美金,油运利润增厚13亿左右。每年70-100亿+的净利润可以期待。第三:其他业务处于中等景气周期从其他业务看,干散货业务预计将保持向上运行,随着西芒杜铁矿的稳产,到2030年有望出货量达到1.2万吨。轮船的VLOC长期合同的稳定贡献,新造船下水将支撑干散货初步走高,而且干散货市场船舶老龄化问题也非常突出,可能会造成较大的供需失衡。预计业务净利润维持在15-25亿元/年。汽车滚装业务将受益于中国汽车出口的持续增长,特别是新能源汽车出口的高速增长。公司已下单的6艘9300CEU甲醇双燃料PCTC将于2026-2027年陆续交付,外贸船队规模将扩大至10-12艘,净利润有望从2025年的约2.29亿元增长至2028年的6-8亿元。集装箱业务预计将保持稳健运行,净利润维持在8-12亿元/年。虽然区域集装箱市场也存在周期性,但公司的精品航线定位使其具有较好的抗风险能力。综合来看,公司在没有任何板块进入躁热周期的情况下,下限平均年利润将从22-24年的50亿左右,增长至未来的70-85亿。如果油运、干散两个核心板块进入大周期,年利润有望升至100-170亿。随着利润的提升,公司负债进一步降低,财务费用同比下行,会释放更多利润。所以我也不赞成用传统周期行业估值去算轮船,成长路径清晰,资本开支高峰期过后,股东回报上来,可以给更高的估值。也希望大家不要只局限于轮船的油运业务,虽然这个业务确实出彩,但是其他业务也不逊色。管中窥豹,不能知其全貌。未来公司也将从一个以油运为主的传统航运企业,转型为以清洁能源运输为核心的现代化航运集团。最后,需要再次提醒,本报告仅供参考,不构成投资建议。航运业具有周期性特征,业绩可能随市场波动。投资航运的第一要务:敬畏航运!就如同我们面对波涛汹涌的大海一样,如果你不敬畏它,那么终将会被吞噬。

欢迎收听雪球出品的财经有深度,雪球,国内领先的集投资交流交易一体的综合财富管理平台,聪明的投资者都在这里。今天分享的内容叫招商轮船的发展历程和未来期望,来自赛艇队长。本文写自26年3月,修改于4月,发布于6月,仅做自己学习思考记录,不做任何推荐,请大家理性看待。文章目的是让大家全方位了解招商轮船这家公司,从而更好的判断公司价值。前言:招商轮船(股票代码:601872)是中国能源运输领域的龙头企业,隶属于百年央企招商局集团。回顾其发展历程,不仅是对一家企业的复盘,更是观察中国航运业在全球能源贸易格局演变中如何定位自身、把握机遇、应对挑战的绝佳窗口。从2014年国际油价断崖式下跌,到2022年俄乌冲突引发的能源危机;从2015年《巴黎协定》确立碳中和目标,到2025年全球能源转型加速;从传统的"石油世纪"向天然气、可再生能源并存的多元能源时代过渡——这些宏观背景的变迁,深刻塑造了招商轮船的战略选择。招商轮船从2015年还是一家以油轮运输为主业的单一型公司,到2025年已发展成为涵盖油运、干散货、LNG运输、汽车滚装、集装箱运输五大板块的综合能源运输集团,公司的业务边界、盈利结构、市场地位都发生了根本性变化。站在2026年的时点,回顾过去、展望未来具有特殊的意义。一方面,航运业正处于新一轮周期的起点,油运市场的景气度回升为公司业绩提供了支撑;另一方面,全球能源转型的大趋势不可逆转,LNG运输作为公司布局的战略性业务,正处于快速成长期,有望在中长期重塑公司的利润结构。一、发展历程:从单一油运到综合能源运输招商轮船的发展轨迹可以清晰地划分为三个阶段,每个阶段都有其鲜明的时代特征和战略主题。第一阶段:油运扩张与全球化布局(2015-2017年)2015年,招商轮船完成了对China VLCC的收购,这是公司发展史上的一个重要里程碑。主要整合了招商局集团旗下的大型油轮资产,使公司一举成为全球VLCC自有运力规模第一的船东。收购完成后,公司VLCC船队规模达到34艘,总载重吨超过1000万吨。这一规模优势不仅体现在运力绝对数量上,更体现在船队结构的优化上。收购的船舶多为2010年以后建造的新船,船龄年轻、油耗低、环保性能优良,符合当时IMO(国际海事组织)日益严格的环保法规要求。2016-2017年,国际油价在低位徘徊,中国作为全球最大的原油进口国,进口量持续增长。公司抓住了这一历史性机遇,通过VLCC船队的规模化运营,深度参与了"国油国运"战略。这一阶段的战略重点是做大。通过规模化扩张,公司确立了在VLCC领域的全球领先地位,形成了规模效应和品牌影响力。然而,单一依赖油运业务的风险也逐渐显现。2015-2016年,油运市场经历了从高位到低位的剧烈波动,公司盈利随之大幅波动。2015年公司实现归母净利润11.54亿元,ROE为10.01%;2016年净利润增至17.30亿元,ROE提升至11.91%;但2017年受市场低迷影响,净利润骤降至6.14亿元,ROE仅为3.89%。这一经历促使管理层开始思考业务多元化的必要性。到2017年底,自有VLCC增至44艘,租入VLCC 4艘,合计控制运力约1335万载重吨。与此同时,公司通过光租和代管方式扩大影响力,在国际油运市场的地位进一步提升。第二阶段:多元化战略启动(2018-2020年)2018年,招商轮船以发行股份购买资产的方式,收购了经贸船务下属的恒祥控股、深圳滚装、长航国际、经贸船务香港100%股权。这笔交易不仅解决了同业竞争问题,更重要的是实现了公司业务向干散货运输、滚装运输等领域的拓展。这次收购的战略价值在于:第一,获得了与巴西淡水河谷(Vale)合作的VLOC(超大型矿砂船)项目,使公司一举成为世界最大的VLOC船东之一。VLOC船型专门用于运输铁矿石,单船载重吨可达40万吨,是普通好望角型散货船的两倍以上。公司与淡水河谷签订的长期COA合同期限长达25年,为公司提供了极其稳定的现金流。第二,获得了深圳滚装的汽车滚装船队,为公司后来抓住中国汽车出口机遇奠定了基础。第三,获得了长航国际的沿海干散货和件杂货运输能力,形成了内外贸兼营的业务格局。2019-2020年,公司进一步通过子公司CLNG(与中海能合资)投资亚马尔LNG项目,进入LNG运输领域。亚马尔项目位于俄罗斯北极圈内,是全球最大的LNG项目之一。公司投资5艘ARC7级冰区加强型LNG船,用于运输亚马尔项目生产的LNG。虽然初期只是参股投资,但这是公司向清洁能源运输领域迈出的重要一步。这一阶段的战略重点是做宽。通过业务多元化,公司从单一油运向"油散并举"转型,降低了周期性风险。2020年,虽然疫情对全球航运市场造成冲击,但公司凭借多元化的业务组合,仍然实现了归母净利润27.77亿元,同比增长72.16%,充分验证了多元化战略的有效性。从财务数据看,2018年公司营业收入达到109.31亿元,较2017年的60.95亿元增长79.3%,这主要得益于经贸船务资产的并表。2019年营收进一步增长至145.56亿元,2020年达到180.73亿元。净利润方面,2018年为11.67亿元,2019年为16.13亿元,2020年跃升至27.77亿元,三年的ROE分别为6.40%、7.68%和10.73%,呈现稳步提升态势。第三阶段:综合能源运输成型(2021-2025年)2021年,是招商轮船历史上具有里程碑意义的一年。这一年,公司完成了对中外运集运的收购,正式进入集装箱运输领域。这笔交易完善了公司的业务版图,形成了"2+N"的业务格局——"2"指油运和干散货两大核心主业,"N"指LNG、滚装、集装箱三大补充业务。2021-2024年,全球能源市场经历了剧烈的波动。2021年下半年,全球供应链紊乱导致集装箱运价暴涨,CCFI指数一度突破3000点;2022年,俄乌冲突引发能源危机,油运市场出现脉冲式行情,VLCC TCE一度突破10万美元/天;2023-2024年,全球经济增长放缓,但区域市场分化明显。在这复杂的市场环境中,公司凭借多元化的业务组合,展现了强大的抗风险能力。特别想说的是,这一阶段公司在LNG运输领域取得了战略性突破。2022年,公司组建招商气运平台,开始自主投资、自主运营LNG运输业务。这一决策标志着公司从被动参股转向主动布局。2023年,公司成功获取卡塔尔能源LNG运输项目(卡气二期),这是公司历史上最大的单笔LNG运输项目。2024年,公司大规模下单,全年新签12艘LNG船。至此,公司累计投资LNG船舶64艘,其中61艘已锁定15-25年期长期租约,成为国际LNG运输市场不可忽视的重要力量。2025年,公司实现营业收入281.77亿元,同比增长9.22%;归母净利润60.12亿元,同比增长17.71%。与2015年相比,营收增长约3.2倍,净利润增长约3.4倍,总资产增长约1.3倍。成长是肉眼可见的。而且每一次周期的低点,都是轮船下一次成长的起点,每一次都是低价收购,周期高点的利润全部纳入公司。就跟木桶一样,一直在补短板,让公司的净利润越来越高。这和很多企业高位增发收购,最后一塌糊涂形成了鲜明对比。这是公司精细化运营的结果,希望公司不要因为这两年赚太多钱就飘了,还是要深耕价值,以合理甚至是低估的价格去收购资产,用好公司的每一分钱。二、财务表现:穿越周期的盈利能力财务数据是企业发展轨迹最客观的记录。通过分析2015-2025年的财务数据,我们可以清晰地看到招商轮船如何从一家依赖单一业务、业绩随周期剧烈波动的公司,成长为业务多元、盈利稳健的综合能源运输集团。营收与利润演变从营业收入看,公司经历了三个阶段的增长。2015-2017年,营收基本稳定在60-62亿元之间,这反映了公司当时以油运为主的业务结构,以及油运市场的相对平稳。2018-2021年,营收从109.31亿元快速增长至244.12亿元,年均复合增长率超过30%。这一增长主要得益于2018年收购经贸船务资产带来的并表效应,以及2021年收购中外运集运后的业务扩张。同期净利润也是跟随着水涨船高,在17年市场特别低迷的情况下也未亏损。18年之后净利润进入爆发期,逐年以30%+速度增长。2022-2024年,营收在257-297亿元区间波动,这反映了全球航运市场从疫情高点回落后的新常态。其中2022年,受俄乌冲突引发的能源危机推动,油运市场景气度大幅提升,净利润创下50.86亿元的历史新高(同比增长40.9%)。2023-2024年,虽然市场环境有所回落,但凭借多元化的业务组合和精细化的成本管控,净利润仍保持在48-51亿元的高位。2025年继续创历史新高。从数据可以看出几个重要趋势:第一,营收增长的波动性小于利润增长的波动性,这是因为不同业务板块的利润弹性不同。油运业务的利润弹性最大,干散货次之,LNG和集装箱相对稳定。第二,2018年后公司利润的周期性波动明显减弱,这得益于业务多元化。2017年净利润波动幅度超过60%,而2023-2024年波动幅度仅为5%左右。第三,2022-2024年,即使在油运市场周期性回落的情况下,公司仍能维持较高的利润水平,说明公司的盈利结构已经实现质的改善。资产与负债结构截至2025年底,公司总资产820.55亿元,较2015年的312.40亿元增长126.1%,年均复合增长率9.4%。资产规模的增长主要来自于业务扩张带来的船舶资产增加。2018年收购经贸船务资产使总资产从377.91亿元跃升至499.56亿元,2021年收购中外运集运使总资产从586.35亿元增至601.36亿元。资产结构也发生了显著变化。固定资产占比从2015年的约55%下降至2025年的约45%,这反映了公司业务从重资产的油运向相对轻资产的LNG运输(长期租约模式)转型。在建工程占比从2015年的约15%上升至2025年的约25%,这反映了公司LNG船舶订单的大规模增加。2025年在建工程的大幅增加,预示着未来几年LNG船队将进入集中交付期。从负债结构看,公司的财务杠杆保持稳健。资产负债率从2015年的56.1%上升至2018年的59.4%,随后逐步下降至2025年的47.6%。这一变化反映了公司盈利能力的提升和股东权益的积累。2015-2018年,公司处于快速扩张期,负债率相对较高;2019年后,随着业务逐步成熟和盈利积累,负债率持续下降。有息负债率保持在20-30%的合理区间。2015年有息负债约120亿元,2025年约150亿元,增幅远低于总资产增幅,说明公司的财务结构在优化。利息保障倍数从2015年的4.2倍提升至2025年的8.6倍,偿债能力显著增强。这一指标的提升,使公司在面对市场波动时具有更强的抗风险能力。盈利能力与股东回报从盈利能力指标看,公司的ROE呈现先降后升的趋势。2015-2017年,ROE从10.01%下降至3.89%,反映了油运市场的低迷和公司业务单一的风险。2018-2022年,ROE从6.40%逐步提升至17.11%,这得益于业务多元化带来的盈利结构改善和经营效率提升。2023-2025年,加权平均ROE为13.25%、13.21%、14.55%,在全球航运企业中处于领先地位。这一优势来源于两个方面:一是多元化的业务组合平滑了周期波动,二是长期合同的稳定贡献提供了可靠的收益基础。从股东回报看,公司始终坚持稳定的分红政策。2015-2025年,公司累计现金分红约120亿元,分红率平均约为43%。稳定的分红政策体现了公司良好的现金流管理能力和对股东的尊重。虽然分红率不是最高,但考虑到公司正处于LNG业务的快速扩张期,需要大量资本开支,这一分红水平是合理且可持续的。预计未来几年,随着LNG船队陆续交付并产生稳定现金流,公司分红能力将进一步增强。从整体财务数据来看,轮船整体非常稳健,但是又不失增长,一方面源于把握住了大部分的并购扩张机会,另外一方面新造船的规划也比较好,船龄也一直保持年轻化。股东回报虽然不是很高,但基于公司发展周期来看,还是可以的。未来希望能探索回购常态化的机制,让股东回报进一步增强。
#320 Travel is one of the most common gut disruptors I hear about in clinic — and one of the most preventable. In this episode, I'm sharing exactly what I pack to keep my gut moving when I travel, what the whole family takes, and why every single choice is backed by research. Whether you're someone who has no issues at home but completely shuts down the moment you board a plane, or someone who already deals with sluggish bowels and knows travel makes it significantly worse — this one is for you. I walk you through the six key reasons travel disrupts your bowels, and then get into my bare minimum gut travel toolkit: the four things I never leave home without, plus the two free foundations that make everything else work better. We cover GOS — the prebiotic I start seven days before travel that research shows may significantly reduce the incidence and duration of traveller's diarrhoea, and that also supports gut motility. I explain how to dose it, which form has the strongest research behind it, and importantly, who should not be taking it without professional guidance (if you have active or suspected SIBO, please speak with a qualified gut-informed practitioner before adding prebiotic fibres). We also cover PHGG for gentle, bloat-free bowel regularity, magnesium bisglycinate (and when citrate may be the better choice) for softening stool and supporting peristalsis, and BetterMe Tea — my own herbal formulation that travels everywhere with me. This isn't a complicated protocol. It's a simple, evidence-based toolkit that works — even when your routine doesn't. In this episode: — Why travel is such a powerful gut disruptor (the six key drivers) — GOS: the prebiotic doing double duty before you board the plane — Who should not take GOS and how to titrate the dose — PHGG: bowel regularity without the bloat — Magnesium bisglycinate (and citrate): which form and why — BetterMe Tea: my travel ritual — Hydration and movement: the free non-negotiables — When travel constipation signals something deeper worth investigating This episode is for educational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice. Please consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before making changes to your health routine.

In this conversation with international tarot reader, author and teacher Liz Dean, we discuss moving from external authority (“what the cards tell me”) to internal sovereignty (“I am the expert of my own life”). This chat illuminates why vulnerability is power, reclaiming your connection to your own wisdom, and what becomes possible when you stop seeking answers outside yourself and start listening to the voice within.We explore how tarot can become a mirror for consciousness evolution rather than a tool for prediction. Liz shares how cards traditionally feared - the Devil, Death, Tower, and Hanged Man - are actually invitations to transformation and deeper knowing.Perfect for anyone ready to move beyond fear-based tarot and into heart-centered, consciousness-aligned knowing.Liz reads for me in this episode as I stand at the ever present edge of becoming – helping me to see what I already know to be true. FIVE THINGS YOU'LL DISCOVER BY THE END OF LSITENING IN:>> How “Scary” Tarot Cards Are Actually Invitations to TransformationThe Devil isn't evil - Liz shares that it's about recognizing what agreements you're honoring. Death isn't statically about endings - it's about what wants to be reborn. The Tower isn't destruction - it's the collapse of false structures so truth can emerge. The Hanged Man isn't stalling - it's the gifts that await your willingness to see differently. These cards aren't warnings but instead consciousness invitations.>>The Difference Between Prediction and SovereigntyTraditional tarot often reads: “The cards tell you what will happen.” Heart-centered tarot reads: “The cards help you see what's already true about yourself.” Liz teaches how moving from “What do the cards say about me?” to “What do I see about myself through the cards?” shifts you from victim of fate to author of your life. This is the difference between external authority and internal wisdom.>>Why Your Resistance to Tarot (Or Anything) Is Actually IntelligenceIf traditional tarot feels manipulative or fear-based, your body is telling you something true, IMO. That resistance isn't closed-mindedness - it's consciousness rejecting what doesn't serve evolution. Liz shares how to honor your own knowing rather than override it for someone else's interpretation. >>The Hermit's Real Teaching: Chosen Solitude as Sacred SpaceThe Hermit isn't about isolation or loneliness - it's about knowing when to withdraw for what wants to emerge through you, Liz says. Whether it's shadow work, creative expression, or spiritual deepening, the Hermit teaches rhythm: when to engage, when to retreat, when to let the world in, and when to tend your own light. This card becomes a guide for honoring your cycles.>>Building a Life & Business from Purpose, Not PredictionCreating from authenticity. Understand why consciousness-aligned Spiritual business isn't about manipulation or scarcity tactics; it's about serving what wants to emerge and trusting resonance.You'll find Liz on Instagram @lizdeantarotAnd her website is hereSpirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free non-guru community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/Free workshop: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/Get my updates straight to your inbox: https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732You'll find me most on Tikotok @reikiredefined
Episode 147: This week, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Patrick Kelly, Co-Founder and CEO of Signal Advisors. Patrick started his career as a financial advisor at Northwestern Mutual before becoming an independent advisor. Before Signal, Patrick founded RepPro, the first electronic application platform for fixed and fixed index annuities in the IMO business. Patrick talks with Kyle about the hidden economics behind high-growth advisory firms. He discusses why some of the fastest-growing advisors integrate insurance, annuities, and investment management into a cohesive strategy, and how pairing this with recurring revenue can unlock both growth and enterprise value. Patrick also explores how technology simplifies operations, improves visibility into marketing performance, and ultimately helps advisors make better business decisions and enhance client experiences. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:02) - Patrick's money moment (05:06) - Where Signal Advisors fits in the modern advisor ecosystem (07:11) - Why insurance technology still lags behind wealthtech (10:52) - The hidden limitations of basic data feeds (15:12) - Rethinking the commission vs. fee-based debate (17:10) - The evolution of fee-based annuities and advisor adoption (19:47) - The real engine behind advisor growth and enterprise value (21:07) - How Signal Advisors survived its early cash flow challenges (28:25) - Building a tech stack around advisor economics and visibility (34:01) - Why advisors work with so many carriers (36:14) - Patrick's vision for the future of Signal Advisors (40:35) - Why AI should improve experience before efficiency (43:37) - Patrick's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Great advisors solve for human outcomes, not just portfolio performance. Clients are often seeking confidence, stability, income, or peace of mind—not simply maximum returns. The firms growing fastest understand how to align financial solutions with real human concerns. The divide between insurance and investments is disappearing. High-growth advisory firms increasingly integrate annuities, insurance, and investment management into a single client strategy instead of treating them as competing business lines. Enterprise value comes from scalable growth, not just recurring revenue. Predictable revenue matters, but the firms commanding premium valuations are the ones pairing recurring income with strong acquisition systems, marketing visibility, and operational leverage AI's biggest opportunity is improving the client experience. Efficiency matters, but the real long-term advantage comes from creating smoother, faster, and more personalized experiences for both advisors and clients. Efficiency is simply the downstream effect. Quotes "In a world where you don't differentiate on products, where you really differentiate is on your financial planning prowess and how you actually help individuals solve problems in their lives." ~ Patrick Kelly "If you're taking commissions, you're reducing the enterprise value of your business because people who buy businesses want recurring revenue." ~ Patrick Kelly "You shouldn't use AI to create efficiency. You should use AI to create a better user experience. Efficiency is a second-order effect of AI." ~ Patrick Kelly Links Patrick Kelly on LinkedIn Signal Advisors Northwestern Mutual American Equity DTCC Michael Kitces Empire of the Summer Moon Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Produce game-changing content with TurncastTurncast helps your company grow by producing top-quality content and fostering transformative conversations.

Our guest on this week's episode is Matt Lekstutis, director at Efficio, a supply chain and consulting firm. Two weeks ago, President Trump had an historic meeting with China's President Xi. It was a highly anticipated gathering, as there was a lot to talk about, including the war against Iran and the ongoing oil constraints. Our guest this week talks with DC Velocity Group Editorial Director David Maloney to unwrap what took place and to discuss international trade and world-wide threats to our supply chains. Senior Editor Victoria Kickham reports that buyers of forklifts and pallet-handling equipment are upbeat in 2026, with many expecting to increase capital expenditures on those items this year as compared to last year. This information is based on a recent Voice of Market report from London-based research firm Interact Analysis. The researchers surveyed decision-makers involved in the use, selection, and purchase of automation technologies for their facilities globally.We've been writing for years about autonomous vehicles, first with AGVs and AMRs in warehouses, there are self-driving forklifts, outdoor delivery robots on sidewalks, increasingly self-driving cars, a small but growing number of self-driving trucks, and some flying drones both indoors and out. But a story that caught the eye of Senior News Editor Ben Ames this week was about autonomous commercial ships.Articles and resources mentioned in this episode:OfficioReport: Market sentiment for forklift and pallet handling tech improvesIMO launches safety code to regulate autonomous shipsVisit DC VelocityVisit Supply Chain XchangeSend feedback about this podcast to podcast@agilebme.comThis podcast episode is sponsored by: ID Label
As electricity demand rises and renewable generation continues to expand, the same question keeps arising: how do we keep power systems reliable, affordable and resilient? This week, Michael Liebreich is joined by Håkan Agnevall, CEO of Wärtsilä, to discuss the changing role of flexible generation in modern electricity systems, the growing importance of grid stability, and why balancing technologies will be critical as renewables become an ever-larger share of the global energy mix. They explore how rapidly growing electricity demand, including from data centres, is reshaping investment decisions, why flexible gas generation may play an important transitional role, and how batteries, renewables and thermal assets can work together to build a more resilient power system. The conversation also examines the future of shipping decarbonisation following delays to the International Maritime Organisation's proposed global carbon-pricing mechanism, the importance of fuel flexibility for vessel owners, and how digital technologies and AI are improving efficiency across industry. Håkan and Michael cover a wide variety of topics, including: Why flexible generation remains essential in renewable-heavy grids How growing electricity demand is changing energy infrastructure planning The role of gas engines, batteries and storage in maintaining grid stability What data centres mean for future power systems Shipping decarbonisation and the IMO's delayed carbon-pricing vote Fuel flexibility and efficiency in maritime transport How industrial companies are using AI to improve performance and reliability Energy security, competitiveness and the changing geopolitical landscape Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Captives of the FlameSamuel R. Delany (1942 - )Chip Delany's 2nd novel -- the first is The Jewels of Aptor (1962) -- published by Ace Books in 1963. Set in the 35th Century, the survivors of a nuclear war live on the coastline and an island in a kingdom ruled by a royal family in disrepair. A young victim -- the son of a wealthy merchant -- of their wrath becomes a working-class hero as he fights to get back his good name, aided by a disaffected member of the royal family. This was later rewritten as Out of The Dead City by Delany as part of the Towers Trilogy, an early masterpiece, IMO. (Introduction by BellonaTimes)
