In 2022, Sony paid $3.6 billion for Bungie to fuel its live-service expansion, aiming for 12 games and recurring revenue modeled after Fortnite. Instead, the deal became a major liability. Sony recorded ¥120.1 billion (~$765–768 million) in impairment charges in FY2025, including ¥31.5 billion in Q2 tied to Destiny 2 and ¥88.6 billion in Q4 linked to Marathon struggles and revised forecasts. This Segment covers Destiny 2's final major update “Monument of Triumph” on June 9, 2026, the shift to maintenance mode, confirmation that Destiny 3 is not in development, ongoing Bungie layoffs exceeding 750 staff since acquisition, Marathon's disappointing launch, and Sony's broader live-service setbacks including Concord, multiple project cancellations, and PS5 sales slowdown. We also examine Sony's still-profitable gaming division and shifting strategy. A must-listen for understanding the high-stakes realities of AAA live-service gaming. Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Impairment… here we go again! In this episode, I revisit IAS 36, but this time we focus on one of the areas that students often find difficult: Goodwill Impairment. I walk through the key principles, explain why goodwill must be tested through a cash-generating unit (CGU), and tackle one of the biggest exam complications: the treatment of non-controlling interests (NCI).You'll learn how goodwill impairment is tested in SBR questions, when impairment losses affect the parent and NCI, and why the measurement of NCI changes the calculation completely. Most importantly, I work through practical examples and journal entries so you can see exactly how the examiner expects you to approach this topic and pick up the marks in the exam.Thanks for listening to this episode of Pass Your SBR ACCA Exams with Tom Clendon.If you'd like to view the exam question on screen and see my working, subscribe to the YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@tomclendonSBR.For access to on-demand support and guidance for your ACCA SBR Journey, visit my website to see my current course offering: https://tomclendon.co.uk/.Chapters:(00:00) Introduction to goodwill impairment(01:02) Recap of IAS 36 impairment basics(02:30) Annual impairment review vs annual impairment loss(03:12) Goodwill impairment and the P&L treatment(04:41) Why goodwill is tested within a CGU(06:23) Goodwill, CGUs and exam application(06:54) NCI measurement and its impact on goodwill(08:54) Example 1: Full goodwill impairment (Bowie)(11:52) Accounting treatment and journal entries for full goodwill(12:52) Example 2: Partial goodwill impairment (Ziggy)(16:11) Journal entries and exam technique tips(17:31) Final exam advice and close

How has the legalization of recreational marijuana in Ohio changed the way law enforcement approaches traffic stops where marijuana odor is present?Steve Palmer and law student Troy dive into a follow-up sparked by a listener scenario: what happens if you're exposed to marijuana smoke at a party, end up smelling like weed, and get pulled over by police?With Ohio's cannabis laws changing and the issue of marijuana impairment on the road under new scrutiny, our hosts break down how odor, reasonable suspicion, and the complexities of both state and federal law play out during roadside stops.Whether you're a regular listener or just curious about how new marijuana laws might affect traffic stops and testing, you won't want to miss this candid, timely discussion.Here are 3 key takeaways:Odor Alone Isn't Enough: Smelling like marijuana used to be enough for probable cause in Ohio, but new laws mean the odor by itself no longer justifies searching a car or escalating an investigation. Brett explains that police can't rely solely on this factor anymore.Impairment vs. Presence: Even with recreational marijuana legal, being impaired behind the wheel is a different story. Police may use the smell as part of a larger assessment if they suspect impaired driving, but not as the only evidence. This is an ongoing legal conversation in Ohio (01:13–04:13).Questions on Testing: Secondhand exposure likely won't push you over the legal limit in urine or blood tests, but this remains a frequent topic of debate and scientific research, especially as new testing technologies develop.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

What are the two main ways that a person can be charged with OVI (Operating a Vehicle Impaired) in Ohio?Steve Palmer and Troy dig deep into the complexities of OVI (Operating a Vehicle Impaired) laws in Ohio.When is being under the legal limit on a breath test not enough to avoid a DUI arrest?What happens if you seem sober, but the officer has other suspicions?Steve Palmer shares real-life case experiences, breaks down the differences between per se OVI and traditional impairment charges, and discusses how police and prosecutors use everything from field sobriety tests to body cam footage in these often-confusing cases. Plus, with marijuana now legal in Ohio, the two examine how that's changing law enforcement's approach.Key Takeaways:Two Ways to Be Charged: You can be charged with OVI in Ohio if (1) your blood, breath, or urine is over the legal limit (per se), or (2) you appear to be under the influence, regardless of your test results (03:24).Below .08? Still Risky: Even if you blow a 0.065, you can still be arrested and prosecuted based on how you act, look, or perform on field sobriety tests (02:22).Video Evidence Is Crucial: Most law enforcement now use body and dash cams. If you look sober and act appropriately on camera, it can be a strong defense. If not, video evidence can easily work against you (10:04).Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

In this episode, I explain the basics of IAS 36 impairment. We start with the key idea: an asset is impaired when its carrying value is more than its recoverable amount. I'll talk you through the terminology, the logic, and the numbers, so it starts to feel manageable rather than messy.You'll learn how to calculate an impairment loss, how to account for it, and what happens when the asset has previously been revalued. We also look at reversals of impairment losses and one phrase I never want to see in an exam answer: “impairment gain”. Let's face it, impairment gets examined, so let's make sure you can pick up the marks.Thanks for listening to this episode of ACCA Tom Clendon's SBR Podcast.If you'd like to view the exam question on screen and see my working, subscribe to the YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@tomclendonSBR.For access to on-demand support and guidance for your ACCA SBR Journey, visit my website to see my current course offering: https://tomclendon.co.uk/.Chapters:(00:00) IAS 36 impairment basics(01:21) When an asset is impaired(01:36) Recoverable amount: fair value vs value in use(03:32) Judgement and estimates in value in use(05:20) Calculating and recording an impairment loss(06:30) When to perform an impairment review(08:03) Links to IFRS 18, IAS 7 and IAS 12(12:03) Why IFRS 9 financial assets are different(12:33) No such thing as an impairment gain(13:44) Impairment of revalued assets(16:01) Reversal of impairment losses(17:01) Worked examples and exam technique

Shivam: My name is Shivam Patel and I'm currently a 3rd year medical student from Western university and today we will be discussing Chronic Pain After Cancer with an emphasis on Improving functionality in cancer survivors and how it overlaps with musculoskeletal dysfunction. We will also talk about the management of pain in outpatient settings as well as the role acute rehab units can play in recovery. Arreaza: Before getting into specific considerations, let's start with a framework most clinicians are familiar with, standard, guideline-based management of upper extremity pain. Typical approach of a patient with shoulder or upper extremity pain Shivam: The standard approach for any patient coming in with a musculoskeletal issue is stepwise and conservative first. Initial management includes activity modification, NSAIDs or acetaminophen for pain control, and early referral to physical therapy depending on severity and duration. If symptoms persist, we escalate. That may include imaging—usually starting with X-ray, then MRI if indicated, and consideration of corticosteroid injections, particularly for conditions like subacromial impingement or adhesive capsulitis which are commonly seen especially following breast cancer treatment. Arreaza: Most guidelines emphasize avoiding early imaging unless there are red flags like trauma, neurologic deficits, or suspicion for malignancy or infection. The reason behind this recommendation is that if you image the population of people older than 50 years old, about 40% of people show rotator cuff tears or damage.  Shivam: When I First heard about this statistic as a medical student, I was shocked and it opened my eyes to the potential downsides of overimaging. We also emphasize maintaining mobility. For example, in adhesive capsulitis, early range-of-motion exercises are key, not immobilization. Arreaza: Exactly. “Motion is lotion” (Dr. Uy's mantra). Shivam: And pharmacologically, we're moving toward a multimodal approach. NSAIDs are first line when tolerated. Topical agents like diclofenac can be useful. Neuropathic agents like gabapentin or duloxetine are only considered if there's a neuropathic component. Arreaza: And a key element is that opioids are not first-line for chronic musculoskeletal pain. Shivam: Yes, that's a key point. Current guidelines recommend minimizing opioid use, reserving them for severe, refractory cases, and even then, for short durations with clear treatment goals. Arreaza: Now, let's transition this framework into cancer survivors.  Shivam: The challenge is that many of these patients present with similar complaints. In the upper extremities, for example, they present with shoulder pain, weakness, stiffness, but the underlying causes are more complex. Particularly in cancer survivors, upper extremity pain is often multifactorial. You still have mechanical issues but layered on top are treatment-related effects such as surgical disruption of anatomy, radiation-induced fibrosis, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, and generalized deconditioning. Arreaza: Let's take an example: THIs a 55-year-old female, s/p left mastectomy and chemoradiation, completed her cancer treatment 1 year ago and now she is presenting with shoulder pain. So, how do we approach this patient? Shivam: This was a specific case I had the pleasure of familiarizing myself with however it is important to acknowledge just how many patients in America share similar experiences due to the incidence of breast cancer. If we approach this as a typical rotator cuff issue, we might miss key contributors that have been seen in cancer survivors like pectoralis tightness from radiation, scapular dyskinesis from surgery, or even early lymphedema. Arreaza: Right, and that changes management. Because if you don't address those underlying contributors, standard treatments may only provide partial or temporary relief. Shivam: Exactly. And this is where we start to see the limitations of a purely symptom-based approach. Let's zoom out again. There are nearly 19 million cancer survivors in the U.S., and that number is increasing due to rapidly improving cancer treatment options. With that, we're seeing more long-term sequelae—especially involving the musculoskeletal system. Arreaza: Some symptoms in cancer survivors are reduced mobility, persistent fatigue, weakness, and impaired return to activities of daily living. And this may lead to chronic pain and reduced quality of life.  Shivam: As a side note, we can also acknowledge the impact of mental and psychological aspects on patients who have cancer or any other chronic condition. If they are depressed or less motivated to be active, participate in therapy, the deconditioning effect can be exacerbated in these patients.  Arreaza: Great point, and also, this is a population that is often under-referred to rehabilitation services. We hope we can increase awareness today. Shivam: Yes, some sources state that only around 30% of those that qualify for acute rehab are referred to it. Which is surprising, because rehabilitation directly addresses many of these issues that cancer patients experience—strength deficits, mobility limitations, and functional decline. Arreaza: Let's talk about pathophysiology for a moment. Why do these patients develop chronic pain? Shivam: A major factor is deconditioning. During cancer treatment, patients often reduce their activity levels significantly. That leads to loss of muscle mass, decreased endurance, and altered biomechanics. Arreaza: I see, sarcopenia plays a role in the development of pain in these patients.  Shivam: And once pain develops, it further limits activity, reinforcing that cycle—pain → inactivity → deconditioning → more pain. On top of that, structural changes, often caused by fibrosis from radiation, reduce tissue elasticity, limit range of motion, and contribute to stiffness and pain. Arreaza: And neuropathic pain from chemotherapy adds another layer—burning, tingling, or hypersensitivity—which requires a different treatment approach. So, given this complexity, how should we as clinicians adjust our assessment of pain in these patients? Shivam: I think it's very important to start with a thorough history to ensure we don't miss any past history of chronic conditions or intensive treatment for prior medical diagnoses. First, we need to broaden the differential. Don't assume it's a single pathology. Second, incorporate function into our assessment. Ask the patient: What can you do? What can't you do?  Additionally, I think it's very important to ask what your patient's goals are for themselves and what they would like to accomplish.  _____________________ References:  Stubblefield, M, Upper Body Pain and Functional Disorders in Patients With Breast Cancer. PM&R, 2014; 6:170 - 183​. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24360839/ Cohen, E, American Cancer Society Head and Neck Cancer Survivorship Care Guideline, Ca Cancer Journal Clin. 2016;0-36​. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27002678/ Stubblefield, M, Radiation Fibrosis Syndrome: Neuromuscular and Musculoskeletal Complications in Cancer Survivors​. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22108231/ Silver JK, Raj VS, Fu JB, Wisotzky EM, Smith SR, Kirch RA.

Send us Fan MailI had a wonderful conversation with someone this week where she asked if a post-partum recovery program should be LIFE specific, if not sport specific.This was because she did not have use of her right leg, after an amputation, and she wondered if this meant that a postpartum recovery program would have to be amended to reflect this.This is an excellent question for anyone with a disability or an impairment, in fact it's soo ridiculously good that I'm surprised I hadn't thought of doing an episode about this before.I have spoken before about sport-specific postpartum programs not being required, so I don't spend a lot of time on that, but LIFE specific is very important indeed..so that's what I'm going into  bit today.How can you plan a life-specific program?When do you need a personalised program instead of a cookie cutter program, like HPNB?Can you work it out for yourself, and how?And why you should never ask ChatGPT for one.And much more.As always; HPNB still only has 5 billing cycles!So this means that you not only get 3 months FREE access, no obligation! BUT, if you decide you want to do the rest of the program, after only 5 months of paying $10/£8 a month you now get FREE LIFE TIME ACCESS! That's $50 max spend, in case you were wondering.This means you can sign up after your first child, use the program and recover and then still have access after giving birth to child 2 and 3!None of this "pay X amount a year" nonsense, once you've paid..you've paid!This makes HPNB not just the most efficient and complete post-partum recovery program, it's also BY FAR the best value.Though I'm not terribly active on  Instagram and Facebook you can follow us there.

To kick off the 2026 season, Alexa and Jenevora Williams dive into the fascinating world of motor learning and what it really means for singing and teaching singing. From walking toddlers and chocolate metaphors to the neuroscience behind skill acquisition, the conversation unpacks why learning to sing is far more complex—and far more human—than we often assume. Together they explore implicit versus explicit learning, internal versus external focus, imagination, metaphor, and the role of trust, play, and mistake-making in vocal development. A thoughtful, wide-ranging discussion that invites singing teachers to simplify their language, deepen their listening, and give both themselves and their students permission to learn messily and creatively. WHAT'S IN THIS PODCAST?  1:59 What is motor control and motor learning?10:41 What are the stages of learning?15:48 What is the brain and larynx interface?18:59 Internal Vs External focus in motor learning33:35 Choosing metaphorical and imagery based instruction50:53 Impairment to motor skills55:09 The future of voice pedagogy integrating neuroscience and imaginationAbout the presenter HERERELEVANT MENTIONS Singing Teachers Talk Ep.75 Vocal Rehabilitation for Singers Motor Control, Motor Learning and Brain-Computer InterfacesHeidi Moss EricksonHearing Singing: A Guide to Functional Listening and Voice Perception by Ian HowellSinging Teachers Talk Ep.237 Beyond the Vocal Tract: How the Brain Shapes What We Hear with Ian HowellTilting ArticlePaul EckmanPEVoCVocal Health EducationABOUT THE GUESTDr Jenevora Williams is an expert in the fields of vocal health and singing teaching.

Supporting Physician Health: Identifying and Addressing Impairment Evaluation and Credit:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/medchat86 Target Audience  This activity is targeted toward primary care physicians and advanced providers. Statement of Need This podcast will highlight how providers can recognize their impairment or a colleague. Additionally, the responsibility of providers will be addressed once impairment is suspected. A study published in PubMed, indicated that a physician's rate of substance use disorder is slightly higher than the general population. As a result of long hours, high responsibility and emotional stress physicians face an increased risk for burnout, depression and substance use. Even though there is the risk of patient safety, physicians delay seeking help due to the stigma or fee of professional consequences. Objectives Discuss the common causes, symptoms and factors that contribute to physician impairment. Describe the impact of impairment on patient safety and professional responsibility. Identify appropriate intervention strategies and available support systems.

Having a mental health condition, including depression or substance use disorder, does not automatically mean that a physician, nurse or other healthcare professional is unable to provide patient care in a competent, ethical and professional manner. Chris Bundy, MD, MPH, FAPA, FASAM, and other leaders of state-based professional health programs (PHPs) support physicians and other healthcare professionals as they navigate mental health conditions and help find supportive paths back to practice once their illness is managed. In this episode of Caring Greatly, Dr. Bundy talks about how PHPs work, his involvement with the Washington PHP and the Federation of State PHP. He shares some common misperceptions about mental health and substance use, and why the stress and trauma-exposure inherent with working in healthcare environments may create unique vulnerabilities for care team members. Dr. Bundy explains some of the challenges and limitations of PHPs, and discusses how many programs have expanded their purview to support a broader group of healthcare professionals beyond physicians. Today, many PHPs offer support to pharmacists, dentists, physicians' assistants and nurses. Dr. Bundy is Executive Medical Director of the Washington Physicians Health Program (WPHP) and Chief Medical Officer of the Federation of State Physician Health Programs (FSPHP). Board-certified in adult and geriatric psychiatry as well as addiction medicine, he holds faculty appointments as a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Washington School of Medicine and Clinical Associate Professor at the Washington State University Elson S.

My name is Zohaib Siddiqi and I'm a fifth-year neurology resident and a part of the Neurology® Resident and Fellow Section Editorial Board. I just finished interviewing Catarina Bernardes about her article, Clinical Reasoning: A 35-year-old Woman with Personality Change and Gait Impairment. Catarina, can you tell us the main points of the article? Dr. Catarina Bernardes: So in this article, we discussed the case of a 35-year-old woman who presented with a three-year history of walking difficulties. On examination, she had signs of a frontal temporal dysfunction, a dorsal lateral myelopathy, optic atrophy, and pes cavus. Her brain and spinal cord MRI was completely normal, but her son's brain MRI was being studied for spastic paraparesis showed signs of hypomyelination involving the subcortical U fibers. Given the suggestive inheritance pattern, we considered an X-linked leukoencephalopathy and central nervous system hypomyelination points to Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease. Important learning points. When differentiating leukoencephalopathies, remember that hypomyelinating disorders often have less pronounced hypointensity on T2 and hypointensity on T1, and in demyelinating disorders, there is very prominent hyperintensity on T2 and hypointensity on T1. Also, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher is a hypomyelinating disorder affecting the subcortical U fibers, while X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy presents a demyelinating pattern sparing the subcortical U fibers and involving mainly the parietooccipital regions. Dr. Zohaib Siddiqi: Thanks so much for that summary, Catarina. A lot of learning points there. For those of you who want to learn more about the case, you can listen to the full-length podcast available now on all streaming platforms and find the article titled, Clinical Reasoning: A 35-year-old Woman with Personality Change and Gait Impairment on the Neurology® Resident Fellow Website. Thanks so much for joining today, and see you next time.

A couple of weeks ago we spoke to the Drug Foundation after the Government announced that Police will begin roadside drug driving tests. Police will test for four types of drugs - cannabis, cocaine, ecstasy and meth - using an oral-fluid testing device. As more information about the testing device has been released, so has commentary. While everyone can agree we don't want impaired drivers on our roads, questions have been raised about the decision to test for the presence of drugs rather than impairment. University of Otago Professor Joseph Boden talks to Jesse.

As New Zealand gets set to rollout roadside drug testing, an Australian expert says it's a scattergun approach.

Andy breaks down the Dodgers Parade and hilariously investigates why men can't resist taking their shirts off to celebrate a big win. He then dives into the troubling story of sober Georgia drivers charged with DUIs, sharing his own experience of being mistakenly hit with a DUI when he first moved to Los Angeles, and questioning the accuracy of roadside tests. Andy also tunes in to John Kobylt's interview with CNN's Elex Michaelson for a dose of media insight, before wrapping up with a bizarre “oil-in-the-engine” car scam out of Placer County.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

OWCP Schedule Awards. If you've got a permanent impairment from a work injury, this could mean a lump-sum payout to help with the long haul. We'll break it down for you injured feds: Who's eligible?

Stick around; by the end, you'll know exactly how to get what's yours. Alright, let's start with the basics—who's eligible for an OWCP Schedule Award under FECA, the Federal Employees' Compensation Act? Picture this: You're a fed employee, you've had a work-related injury or illness that's left you with a permanent hit to a specific body part or function. We're talking arms, legs, hands, eyes, hearing, even lungs or your back if it's messing with your extremities.

Federal Workers Compensation Coffee Break Podcast is an educational podcast that covers relevant federal workers compensation topics that affect injured government employees. Today's podcast covers relevant information about Impairment Ratings for a Schedule Award calculations and eligibility. Schedule awards are for an OWCP accepted condition arising out of an on-the-job injury. The awards are generally for the permanent loss or use of a scheduled member of the body and usually not for the body as a whole.As of July 2005 the appropriate method of evaluating the extent of any permanent impairment is found in the AMA's Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, 6th Edition, the use of which has been approved by the OWCP. Among the elements which may be considered in determining the extent of impairment are loss of motion, pain and weakness.                              Summary of topics covered in this episode- Evidence for Pay Rate: OWCP relies on the employing agency to provide documentation of the pay rate at the time of injury (e.g., SF-50 or payroll records). Ensure this is accurate when submitting your CA-7 form.- Amended Awards: If you seek an amended award for increased impairment, the pay rate remains tied to the original injury date unless new work-related factors establish a later date of injury or recurrence.- Lump Sum or Periodic Payments: Schedule Awards are typically paid in a lump sum if the employee is back to full duty or retired, but the total amount is still based on the injury-date pay rate, multiplied by the percentage of impairment and the weeks assigned to the body part.For the latest guidance, check the FECA Procedure Manual Part 2, Chapter 2-0808, or consult with your OWCP claims examiner. If you're unsure about your specific pay rate calculation, provide OWCP with clear documentation from your employer to avoid delays.The podcaster is Dr. Stephen Taylor, OWCP legal consultant for Oberheiden Law Firm.  Dr. Taylor's contact information is:https://fedcompconsultants@protonmail.com If you need a medical provider or assistance with an OWCP /  DOL claim in Tampa, Jacksonville, Pensacola Florida, Mississippi or Daphne Alabama    you can make an appointment to see Dr. Taylor, or Dr. Sullivan   at the clinic at  FWC Medical Centers.

In this episode, I chat with Cary Lowe and Trish Butler about the complexities of travelling with a mobility impairment like multiple sclerosis. The conversation centres around a new book released by Cary, entitled “On Two Legs and Three Wheels” in which he shares some of the global travel adventures he and his wife Trish, who is a wheelchair user, have had over the years. During the chat, Cary and Trish discuss some of the most common challenges faced by travellers who are wheelchair users, ways in which the hospitality industry could make their services and venues more inclusive to all, and address the topic of travel for an ageing population. They also share a few of their wealth of travel stories, both positive and negative, to illustrate their insights.

Join us as we revisit our conversation with Dr. Bronwyn Riggs about Canine Cognitive Dysfunction.  Why is my 13 y.o. dog seeming so confused by every day tasks? She doesn't seem to recognize me anymore and went to the window to be let outside. Then she seemed to get lost on our usual walk and became quite anxious. She is pacing all night long and then sleeps throughout the day. She's never had an accident, and now urinated on the dining room rug twice last week! Sound familiar? According to Bronwyn Riggs, VMD, DACVIM (Neurology), perhaps it's cognitive dysfunction that is responsible for changes in her behavior, disorientation, and confusion. The brain experiences age-related degenerative changes just like muscles. Impairment of memory and learning with age exists across all species. Factors such as genetics, diet, environment, lifestyle, and metabolic diseases contribute to susceptibility. Although there is no cure, cognitive decline can be managed with enrichment, behavior modification, targeted nutrition, medications, and certain supplements. To exercise their brain, you can teach your old dog new tricks!

In this encore episode, we highlight the stomach's role in vitamin B12 absorption and bioavailability, detailing the cellular composition of the gastric mucosa and further highlighting mucous cells, parietal cells, and chief cells. We also briefly discuss Helicobacter pylori and common symptoms, while detailing H. pylori's potential impacts on the gastric mucosal barrier. Topics:1. Introduction- Overview of the stomach's role in B12 absorption- Helicobacter pylori  2. H. pylori Overview- Gram-negative bacterium, can colonize the stomach lining- Many individuals remain asymptomatic- Symptoms - Can contribute to gastritis and peptic ulcers- Produces urease, hydrolyzes urea into ammonia (NH₃) andcarbon dioxide (CO₂)- Ammonia neutralizes stomach acid locally, protective microenvironment- H. pylori damages the mucosal barrier and contributes to persistence- Possesses additional virulence factors 3. Gastric Anatomy  -  Stomach is divided into the cardia, fundus, body, and pylorus- The gastric mucosa - The epithelial lining; mucous cells, parietal cells, chief cells, and more 4. Mucous Cells and Mucosal Protection  - Line the gastric pits and secrete thick, viscous mucus- Mucus composed of water, mucin glycoproteins, and other low-molecular-weight molecules- Traps bicarbonate ions (HCO₃⁻)- Shields the stomach lining 5. Parietal Cells  - Located in the gastric glands, predominantly in the fundus and body- Secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl)- Secrete intrinsic factor (IF) 6. Vitamin B12 Overview - Cobalamin: DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation, neurological function, methylation, and more- Methylcobalamin and 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin- Non-active forms include hydroxocobalamin and synthetic cyanocobalamin   7. Vitamin B12 Absorption Pathway  - B12 is released from proteins by HCl and pepsin- Binds first to haptocorrin- In the small intestine, pancreatic enzymes degrade haptocorrin- B12 binds intrinsic factor - Absorption in the ileum - Impairment  8. Chief Cells  - Located in the gastric glands- Secrete pepsinogen, activated by acid into pepsin- Also secrete gastric lipase 9. Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) - Secreted by parietal cells- Denatures dietary proteins and activates pepsinogen- Acts as a defense mechanism by aiding in sterilizing ingested food 10. Relevance of H. pylori - Produces urease that breaks down urea into NH₃ and CO₂- Ammonia neutralizes acid locally, forming a protective “bubble”- Enhances mucosal damage and microbial persistence 11. B12 Absorption  - Multiple factors and root causes can impair absorption- H. pylori 12. Hypochlorhydria  - Symptoms- Absorption: vitamin B12, iron, calcium, magnesium, more- Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)  13.

Solo mini show today.  We often hear that hip bone is connected to the knee bone and pain in one area is a victim of a "dysfunction" somewhere else. Its a foundation of the kinesiopathological model and lead to the idea that if someone has joint pain you should train at a joint around that pain.  Eg. If your knee hurts you train the hips as well. And we have plenty of pragmatic evidence that it helps.  Hip exercises should be added to knee exercises when you have knee pain.  The problem is that we don't know why.  Hence, I reject the impairment correction model of this and offer another way to prescribe exercise and give different opinions on how to tailor you exercise prescriptions to people in pain.  Providing options should be a foundation of person centred care.

The Clark County Sheriff's Office responded to two fatal motor vehicle collisions in Vancouver last week. On Aug. 14, a truck and motorcycle collided near NE 78th Street, with the rider later dying at PeaceHealth hospital. On Aug. 15, a pedestrian was struck by a truck in the Fred Meyer parking lot on Highway 99 and also died at PeaceHealth. Both cases are under investigation by the CCSO Traffic Homicide Unit. Impairment is not believed to be a factor in either collision. Information provided by the Clark County Sheriff's Office. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/ccso-responds-to-two-separate-fatal-motor-vehicle-collisions/ #ClarkCounty #CCSO #TrafficHomicide #Vancouver #FatalCollision #PeaceHealth

Joshua Bauchner, chair of the Cannabis, Hemp and Psychedelics Practice Group of Mandelbaum Barrett, P.C., discusses the intricacies of medical cannabis use and its legal implications. While some states provide protections for medical cannabis users, federal law does not, limiting the scope of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The inconsistency between state and federal laws creates additional challenges for both employers and employees. The discussion further explored the potential impacts of DEA rescheduling or descheduling cannabis, including possible changes to ADA protections and tax implications for cannabis businesses. Ultimately, prioritizing the passage of the Safe Banking Act and amending Section 280E of the IRS code were identified as more effective solutions for addressing industry challenges.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

What if the foundation of financial accounting is fundamentally flawed? Tom Selling, author of The Accounting Onion blog, argues that historical cost accounting creates a "truth in labeling problem" that allows management to manipulate earnings while failing to capture economic reality. Through compelling examples from oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, and subscription businesses, he explains why value creation often occurs years before GAAP recognizes a single dollar of revenue. You'll discover how a $2 change in expected cash flows can trigger a $400,000 impairment loss, why the FASB shifted focus from earnings to balance sheets, and how current corporate governance essentially lets management "grade their own papers." This conversation challenges core assumptions about what accounting should measure and offers a provocative vision for reform.Chapters(01:21) - The Myth of Honest Financial Accounting (02:28) - Management Gaming the System (03:22) - Historical Cost Accounting Explained (05:44) - Examples of Manipulation and the Enron Scandal (09:16) - Impairment and Depreciation Issues (13:26) - Alternatives to Historical Cost Accounting (20:59) - The Disconnect in Value Recognition (25:08) - R&D Expenses and Unrecognized Assets (25:39) - Challenges in Valuation and Accounting (27:08) - Measuring Assets and Liabilities (28:09) - Industry-Specific Accounting Limitations (31:08) - The Role of Transparency in Accounting (34:12) - Subscription Businesses and Revenue Recognition (44:22) - The Problem with Estimates and Auditing (48:18) - Conclusion and Summary Sign up to get free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://earmarkcpe.comhttps://earmark.app/Download the Earmark CPE App Apple: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/earmark-cpe/id1562599728Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.earmarkcpe.appConnect with Our Guest, Tom SellingThe Accounting Onion: http://accountingonion.comConnect with Blake Oliver, CPALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/blaketoliverTwitter: https://twitter.com/blaketoliver/
