Did you know that the “world's first internet-controlled fitness equipment" was launched more than two decades ago? iFIT Health & Fitness pioneered the technology that drives the trending connected fitness space today. When the pandemic closed gyms across the country last year, millions of Americans purchased billions of new connected fitness equipment pieces and drove headfirst into online home workouts. iFIT Health & Fitness is the market leader in the U.S. market of large fitness equipment, so it's no wonder the company more than doubled over the last year. On 8/31/21, iFIT Health & Fitness filed its S-1 document with the SEC, which is a signal that the company plans to go public. While the exact date of the IPO wasn't set at the time of recording, the company will trade on the Nasdaq under the appropriately chosen symbol IFIT. In this podcast episode, I'll cover the founding story of Weslo Design International (that eventually became ICON Health and Fitness and now iFIT Health and Fitness) and interesting timeline highlights that span the company being owned by fitness business icons Joe and Ben Weider. Additionally, I'll explain how heated competition against newcomer Peloton Interactive is driving iFIT Health and Fitness to new levels of innovation. Fitness has always been about connection, but now digital connectivity has made new experiences and business opportunities possible. We are still in the earliest stages of connected fitness, but the long-term winners will need to be great at four different pillars (hardware, software, content, and community) and I'll explain how iFIT Health and Fitnes stacks out against the connected fitness competitive landscape. Finally, the strength of iFIT's ecosystem (especially the community) can then be highly leverageable into adjacent consumer categories, and you might recognize a major strategy it plans to utilize with iFIT Nutrition.

As we have explored all that has gone into the product of coffee and the many ways that sustainability can be achieved in farming, Importing, and Roasting. Now we come to the place where coffee's potentially is ultimately on display. The cafe.  Next to the farm, the cafe has been the focus of much of our sustainability efforts, and with good reason. The cafe is hands down the most wasteful link in the value chain in product, materials, energy, and even in potential as businesses often cannot sustain themselves longer than a few years.  In this episode we will be talking with some brilliant minds whose work and ideas have created seismic shifts in the way coffee shops can view and pursue sustainability in an accessible and effective ways.  As we talk about everything from shifting our mindsets, zero-waste initiatives, and energy saving innovations --to navigating social pressure, communicating values to customers/staff, and committing to small steps and building simple systems, I believe this episode will stoke your desire to start or continue your own shop's sustainability efforts.  Our Guest for this episode include: Cosimo Libardo: CEO, La Carimali Group Karen Lickteig: Marketing & Sustainability Director for Nossa Familia Coffee Umeko Motoyoshi: Author, Not Wasting Coffee, Host, A Better Table Podcast Guest Links: La Caramali Group  Nossa Familia Coffee A Better Table Podcast Not Wasting Coffee / Umeshiso.com Show Links: www.biocaf.com Download the  Free PDF Program Guide All Episodes of The Sustainability Series    Related Keys to the Shop Episodes: 275 : The Changing Landscape of Cafe Spaces w/ Dr. Jennifer Ferreira 206 : The Emotional and Social Impact of the Cafe Space w/ Noa Berger 067 : 6 Truths About Power : The Responsible Approach to Power Dynamics in the Cafe 057 : SOP's FTW!

Sustainability is a collaborative effort that relies on solid networks, relationships, and communication. This is mainly the responsibility of importers and roasters whose job it is to provide connection, accurate representation, and to realize the potential of the now harvested coffee and the farmers who grow it. While providing these platforms to those they serve, importers and roasters must also look out for the stability and sustainability of their own businesses in order to make progress long-term. In this episode we will be talking with some seriously inspiring importers and roasters to discuss their practices, perspectives, accomplishments on what it means to be holistically sustainable. From commited importing relationships, balancing the needs of roasters and farmers, and exploring the roasters role in the value chain -- to roaster cooperatives, creating values based culture, and navigating supply challenges, there are some incredible points and actionable insights in these conversations. I hope this inspires you to take consistent action, even in small ways, to add to the positive momentum!

With the threat of a Christmas shortage of turkeys, the UK government is under pressure to create a short-term working visa scheme for foreign lorry drivers, the BBC reports. The Covid pandemic and Brexit has left transport firms desperate to recruit drivers and government departments have been in discussion options with the industry, including introducing special visas. Ministers have rejected calls to introduce visas for drivers while urging firms to use local labour. The industry wants drivers to be added to the official UK Shortage Occupations list, enabling them to qualify for a skilled worker visa. Is UK immigration the magic bullet for industry? But the government wants the industry to employ British drivers, which the industry said is impossible in the short term due to the training costs and time it takes to pass the rigorous HGV (heavy goods vehicle) driving test in the UK. Training HGV drivers typically takes six to nine months and costs up to £7,000. Many British drivers claim that the low pay and poor working conditions are deterring people from entering the sector. Businesses warn that the shortage of drivers is jeopardising deliveries to retailers and pushing up food prices for consumers. The sector is also reeling from the impact of the pandemic, which has prevented thousands of new drivers from taking their HGV tests last year. European drivers returned home when work dried up last year and have not been able to return because of immigration rules brought in after Brexit. Thousands of EU migrants failed to apply for UK settlement despite efforts by the Home Office to promote a low-cost easy route during the two-year run up to Brexit. The Road Haulage Association estimates that there is currently a shortfall of about 60,000 hauliers and said that the situation for food supplies was "close to a crisis point". There was a risk that some items would run out in supermarkets at certain times in a way similar to "rolling blackouts" for electricity, it said. Source: BBC. As I said in my video post this week, I have not yet seen any evidence of major shortages on supermarket shelves. The problem is that warnings of a food shortage could become a self-fulfilling prophesy as shoppers start to hoard and panic buy. Should the Home Office issue special UK working visas for drivers, they will almost certainly apply only to EU citizens. Importing overseas workers to plug skill shortages has been used in the UK since the 1950's ‘Windrush' generation right up to hiring nurses from the Philippines and other countries today. What's your view? Should we train more British workers to do those jobs or is it the situation more complex?

Greater adherence to Mediterranean diet associated with better cognitive performance in older individuals University of South Australia, July 13, 2021 According to news originating from Adelaide, Australia, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “Adherence to a Mediterranean diet is associated with higher cognitive function and reduced risk of dementia in Mediterranean populations. However, few studies have investigated the association between Mediterranean diet adherence and cognition in populations outside of the Mediterranean basin.” Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of South Australia, “Furthermore, it is currently unknown whether the association between Mediterranean diet adherence and cognitive function differs between middle-aged and older individuals. Cross-sectional (n = 894) and longitudinal (n = 530) multivariable analyses were undertaken using data from community-dwelling adults from the Maine-Syracuse Longitudinal Study (MSLS). Mediterranean diet adherence was measured by applying a literature-based Mediterranean diet score to food frequency questionnaire data. Cognitive function was assessed with a battery of tests and composites scores were computed for global cognitive function, Visual-Spatial Organisation and Memory, verbal memory, working memory, scanning and tracking and abstract reasoning. No cross-sectional associations between Mediterranean diet adherence and cognitive function were detected. Over a period of five years, higher adherence to a Mediterranean diet was associated with improvements in Global Cognitive Function, Visual-Spatial Organisation and Memory and scanning and tracking in participants >= 70 years.” According to the news editors, the research concluded: “No significant longitudinal associations were observed for participants Conclusion: Our findings suggest that higher adherence to a Mediterranean diet is associated with better cognitive performance, and therefore less cognitive decline, in older but not middle-aged individuals.” This research has been peer-reviewed.     Coffee and veggies may protect against COVID-19 Northwestern University, July 20, 2021 Sip a venti dark roast and eat a salad. A new Northwestern Medicine study shows coffee consumption and eating lots of vegetables may offer some protection against COVID-19. The authors believe this is the first study using population data to examine the role of specific dietary intake in prevention of COVID-19. "A person's nutrition impacts immunity," said senior author Marilyn Cornelis, associate professor of preventive medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. "And the immune system plays a key role in an individual's susceptibility and response to infectious diseases, including COVID-19." Being breastfed may also offer protection as well as eating less processed meats, the study found. "Besides following guidelines currently in place to slow the spread of the virus, we provide support for other relatively simple ways in which individuals can reduce their risk and that is through diet and nutrition," Cornelis said.  The paper on nutrition and COVID-19 protection was published recently in the journal Nutrients. One or more cups of coffee per day was associated with about a 10% decrease in risk of COVID-19 compared to less than one cup per day. Consumption of at least 0.67 servings per day of vegetables (cooked or raw, excluding potatoes) was associated with a lower risk of COVID-19 infection. Processed meat consumption of as little as 0.43 servings per day was associated with a higher risk of COVID-19. Having been breastfed as a baby reduced the risk 10% compared to not having been breastfed.  While the study shows diet appears to modestly reduce disease risk, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends vaccines as the most effective way to prevent COVID-19 disease, especially severe illness and death. COVID-19 vaccines also reduce the risk of people spreading the virus that causes COVID-19. Thus far, most COVID-19 research has focused on individual factors assessed after a positive COVID-19 test. Individuals with suppressed immune systems such as the elderly and those with existing comorbidities including cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes and obesity, are more likely to experience severe outcomes of COVID-19.  But other than weight management, less attention has focused on other modifiable risk factors preceding COVID-19 infection, said Cornelis, who studies how diet and nutrition contribute to chronic disease.  Dr. Thanh-Huyen Vu, the study's first author and a research associate professor of medicine at Northwestern, is now leading analyses to determine whether these protective diet behaviors are specific to COVID or respiratory infections more broadly.  Exact mechanisms linking these diet factors to COVID are unknown.  "Coffee is a major source of caffeine, but there are also dozens of other compounds that may potentially underlie the protective associations we observed," Cornelius said. "Associations with processed meat, but not red meat, point to non-meat factors." Using data from the UK Biobank, researchers examined the associations between dietary behaviors measured in 2006-2010 and COVID-19 infections in March to December 2020, before vaccines were available. They focused on 1) diet factors for which data were available and previously implicated in immunity based on human and animal studies; 2) self-reported intakes of coffee, tea, vegetables, fruit, fatty fish, processed meat and red meat. An early-life exposure to breastmilk also was analyzed.  Among the 37,988 participants tested for COVID-19 and included in the study, 17% tested positive.  The observational nature of the UK Biobank research limits the extent to which mechanisms of protection can be tested, Cornelis said. However, much of her nutrition research uses genetics, and with all UK Biobank participants currently genotyped, she hopes to use this information to gain better insight into how diet and nutrition offer protection from the disease.   Biologic age reversed with lifestyle improvement plus supplements Institute for Functional Medicine (Seattle), July 14 2021.  The April 15, 2021 issue of Aging published the results of an eight-week randomized trial which resulted in a reduction in biologic age among men who participated in lifestyle changes and consumed nutritional supplements. "The combined intervention program was designed to target a specific biological mechanism called DNA methylation, and in particular the DNA methylation patterns that have been identified as highly predictive of biological age,” explained lead author Kara Fitzgerald, ND. “We suspect that this focus was the reason for its remarkable impact.”  The trial included 38 men between the ages of 50 and 72 years. Eighteen participants consumed a plant-based, low carbohydrate diet that included limited nutrient-dense animal proteins. The diet was supplemented with a vegetable and fruit powder and the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum 299v. The group was advised to participate in a minimum of 30 minutes of exercise daily and to perform breathing exercises twice per day for stress reduction.  According to the Horvath DNAmAge clock, which evaluates DNA methylation patterns as a marker of biologic age, men who participated in the lifestyle program had scores that averaged 1.96 younger at the end of the program in comparison with the beginning, while control participants scored 1.27 years older. Additionally, triglycerides were reduced in the lifestyle program group. “To our knowledge, this is the first randomized controlled study to suggest that specific diet and lifestyle interventions may reverse Horvath DNAmAge epigenetic aging in healthy adult males,” the authors announced.  “These early results appear to be consistent with, and greatly extend, the very few existing studies that have so far examined the potential for biological age reversal,” Dr Fitzgerald commented. “And it is unique in its use of a safe, non-pharmaceutical dietary and lifestyle program, control group, and the extent of the age reduction."       Research suggests L-carnitine could aid burn recovery Anhui Medical University (China), July 12, 2021 According to news reporting from First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University research stated, “Impaired hepatic fatty acid metabolism and persistent mitochondrial dysfunction are phenomena commonly associated with liver failure. Decreased serum levels of L-carnitine, a amino acid derivative involved in fatty-acid and energy metabolism, have been reported in severe burn patients.” Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University: “The current study aimed to evaluate the effects of L-carnitine supplementation on mitochondrial damage and other hepatocyte injuries following severe burns and the related mechanisms. Serum carnitine and other indicators of hepatocytic injury, including AST, ALT, LDH, TG, and OCT, were analyzed in severe burn patients and healthy controls. A burn model was established on the back skin of rats; thereafter, carnitine was administered, and serum levels of the above indicators were evaluated along with Oil Red O and TUNEL staining, transmission electron microscopy, and assessment of mitochondrial membrane potential and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) activity and expression levels in the liver. HepG2 cells pretreated with the CPT1 inhibitor etomoxir were treated with or without carnitine for 24 h. Next, the above indicators were examined, and apoptotic cells were analyzed via flow cytometry. High-throughput sequencing of rat liver tissues identified several differentially expressed genes (Fabp4, Acacb, Acsm5, and Pnpla3) were confirmed using RT-qPCR. Substantially decreased serum levels of carnitine and increased levels of AST, ALT, LDH, and OCT were detected in severe burn patients and the burn model rats. Accumulation of TG, evident mitochondrial shrinkage, altered mitochondrial membrane potential, decreased ketogenesis, and reduced CPT1 activity were detected in the liver tissue of the burned rats. Carnitine administration recovered CPT1 activity and improved all indicators related to cellular and fatty acid metabolism and mitochondrial injury. Inhibition of CPT1 activity with etomoxir induced hepatocyte injuries similar to those in burn patients and burned rats; carnitine supplementation restored CPT1 activity and ameliorated these injuries. The expression levels of the differentially expressed genes Fabp4, Acacb, Acsm5, and Pnpla3 in the liver tissue from burned rats and etomoxir-treated hepatocytes were also restored by treatment with exogenous carnitine.” According to the news editors, the research concluded: “Exogenous carnitine exerts protective effects against severe burn-induced cellular, fatty-acid metabolism, and mitochondrial dysfunction of hepatocytes by restoring CPT1 activity.”     Red blood cell ‘traffic' contributes to changes in brain oxygenation   Penn State University, July 19, 2021 Adequate blood flow supplies the brain with oxygen and nutrients, but the oxygenation tends to fluctuate in a distinct, consistent manner. The root of this varied activity, though, is poorly understood. Now, Penn State researchers have identified one cause of the fluctuations: inherent randomness in the flow rate of red blood cells through tiny blood vessels called capillaries. According to the researchers, this randomness could have potential implications for understanding the biological build-up mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease. They published their findings in PLOS Biology today. “These oxygenation fluctuations also occur in other tissues, like muscle,” said Patrick Drew, Huck Distinguished Associate Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics, Neurosurgery and Biomedical Engineering. “The question we had was: Are these fluctuations caused by neural activity or something else?” The fluctuations resemble 1/f-like noise, a statistical pattern showing large fluctuations made up of many small fluctuations and naturally occurring in a variety of phenomena, from stock-market prices to river heights. The researchers investigated the fluctuations in mice due to their brains' similarities to those of humans, according to Drew, who also serves as associate director of the Penn State Neuroscience Institute. First, the researchers monitored the blood flow, oxygenation and electrical signals produced by brain activity—the first time the latter two had been tracked simultaneously, according to Drew—in awake mice. They collected the data as mice moved on a spherical treadmill for up to 40 minutes at a time. Next, to investigate the relationship between brain activity and oxygenation fluctuations, the researchers used pharmacological compounds to temporarily and reversibly silence neural signals in the mice's brains. Despite the silencing, the fluctuations continued, showing little correlation between neural activity and oxygenation. The passage of red blood cells, however, told a different story. Using two-photon laser scanning microscopy, an imaging technique used to visualize cells deep inside living tissue, the researchers could visualize the passage of individual red blood cells through capillaries. “It's like traffic,” Drew said. “Sometimes there are a lot of cars going by, and the traffic gets plugged up, and sometimes there aren't. And red blood cells go either way when they approach a junction, so this random flow can lead to bottlenecks and stalls in the vessel.” Importing experimental data into a statistical model allowed the researchers to run further simulations and make inferences based on massive amounts of data produced by the model. The researchers discovered that these random red blood cell stoppages contributed to the fluctuations in oxygenation, further supporting a relationship between the flow of red blood cells through capillaries and the tiny changes in oxygenation that formed larger trends. Better understanding the regulation of blood flow and subsequent transport of oxygen can help researchers improve medical technology and explore causes of diseases such as Alzheimer's, according to Drew. While the researchers identified the link between red blood cell transport and oxygenation, further research is needed to investigate additional contributors to oxygenation fluctuations that could play a role in neurodegenerative diseases. Kyle Gheres, a graduate student in the intercollege Graduate Program in Molecular Cellular and Integrative Biosciences, also contributed to this paper. Qingguang Zhang, assistant research professor of engineering science and mechanics, served as first author on the paper.

EGCG induces apoptosis and inhibits tumorigenesis through multiple signaling pathways in breast cancer cells. b-catenin signaling modulators could be useful in the prevention and therapy of breast cancer." The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from the Chonbuk National University School of Medicine, "However, the precise anticancer effect of EGCG through the b-catenin signaling pathway in breast cancer is unclear. The present study investigated the association between b-catenin expression and clinicopathological factors of breast cancer patients, and the effect of EGCG on b-catenin expression in breast cancer cells. b-catenin expression was analyzed according to the clinicopathological factors of 74 patients with breast cancer. All patients were females diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma. Western blot analysis revealed that b-catenin was expressed at higher levels in breast cancer tissue than in normal tissue. b-catenin expression was associated with lymph node metastasis (p=0.04), tumor-node-metastasis stage (p=0.03) and estrogen receptor status (p

Since the Democrats seized control of DC it has not only been a shit show, it has become a scary time in the US with Freedom and Democracy under constant attack. Rep Maxine Waters openly advocating political prosecutions and imprisoning political opponents whose policies she disagrees with saying that if we don't prosecute them, they could get elected. Take that with the White House openly admitting they are telling social media and other tech companies what views and facts are to be censored. The American people are no longer to speak freely under the First Amendment. Instead, the Government should dictate what you're allowed to say, think, and believe. You notice it's always the biggest liar, the propagandist that always advocates for censorship. The Democrats attempt to justify this by claiming they are saving lives by stoping medical mininformation. The biggest source of medical misinformation is Dr. Fauci. Fauci who helped fund the creation of Covid19 that has killed millions, Fauci who suppressed information related to Covid19, Fauci who promotes policies that put kids and the public at greater risk. The Democrats know that with election integrity laws being passed to crack down on election fraud, 2022 is going to be devastating to the Democrats. This is why the Democrats are openly engaged in voter replacement. Importing people from countries likely to support Democrats, placing them in Republican states all while pushing Amnesty in DC. This is their plan to flip Red-States to Blue. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thejacobjohnstonshow/message

Salton Sea water levels continue to go down and that poses a number of problems for nearby communities and the organisms living in the water. A number of proposals being considered are focusing on the idea of importing seawater across the state's desert to solve the problem.  Environment reporter Mark Odalde's new piece looks at the proposed plans. The California Natural Resources Agency is tasked with coming with a long-term fix, but the deadline is approaching. Odalde says the agency owes the state a plan by the end of 2022.  Today on AirTalk, we break down what's happening with the Salton Sea, the proposals being considered and the various implications. Do you have questions? Join the conversation by calling 866-893-5722.   We reached out to the California Natural Resources Agency, but the agency was unable to make someone available for an interview. With guest host Sharon McNary Guests:  Mark Olalde, environment reporter for ProPublica's Southwest office, his piece is “Clock is ticking on dreams of saving Salton Sea with water from Mexico's Sea of Cortez;” he tweets @MarkOlalde Michael Cohen, a senior researcher at the Oakland-based Pacific Institute, a think tank that focuses on water conservation issues Timothy Bradley, professor emeritus of ecology and evolutionary biology at UC Irvine; he has been working on issues related to the Salton Sea and salt lakes for decades  

The media finally took notice of the rising anti-Semitism last month. Except they refuse to identify the source as growing numbers and influence of anti-Semitic Muslims who have immigrated here in large numbers. Today, we're joined by Dr. Andy Bostom, who, aside from being a medical researcher, is also a scholar on Islam and has written numerous books on the origins of Islamic anti-Semitism. He warns that it's not just al Qaeda that preaches jihad towards Jews; it's in all of the mainstream Islamic teachings and universities to this very day, including on our own shores. Dr. Bostom also traces the unholy alliance between Marxism and Islamism, which is really blossoming today through BLM and people like Ilhan Omar. Learn more about your ad choices.

The head has been knocked off a drug importing beast. That's the take of a gang expert, after New Zealand police carried out raids across the North Island as part of an international sting led by the FBI. So far, 35 people have been arrested, including senior members of the Comancheros, the Waikato Mongrel Mob and the Head Hunters. About 900 charges have been laid and $3.7 million-worth of assets seized - including two boats and more than $1 million in cash. Criminals have also been netted across the globe in what's been called Operation Trojan Shield - after police tricked them into communicating on an app run by the FBI. Jarrod Gilbert, who's the Director of Criminal Justice at the University of Canterbury, reckons gang members will be on edge.

Uncovering Metal Crafts Of The Viking Age Vikings are often associated with scenes of boats and fiercely-pitched battles. But new research, published in the journal Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, shows they also had other, calmer skills. The paper details advances in the cast metalwork of objects, such as keys and ornamental brooches, that occurred in the trading city of Ribe, Denmark in the 8th and 9th century.  Researchers analyzed samples of metal taken from a variety of metal objects found in Ribe, along with metalworking tools, crucibles, molds, and samples of metal slag. They found that while the Vikings began working in brass with a very experimental approach, they quickly standardized their production to use specific blends and alloys of metals. They also adopted more heat-resistant clays for crucibles, and made extensive use of recycling throughout their work processes.  Vana Orfanou, an European Research Commission (ERC) postdoctoral research scientist In the School of Archaeology at University College, Dublin, and lead author on the paper, joins SciFri’s Charles Bergquist to discuss the state of the art in early Scandinavian brass making.    An Illustrated Exploration Of Hypothetical Futures Futurist and Flash Forward host Rose Eveleth spends her time asking a lot of ‘what if’ questions, and then exploring the answers with experts. For example, what if human light sources forever drowned out our dark night sky? What if we relocated endangered species to save them from climate change? What if, as she asked in 2018, we saw a deadly pandemic consume the globe? With a new book that illustrates even more hypothetical futures, she poses even more far-reaching questions: What if we could change our gender like our hair color? What if we could live on as robots after our death? What if we had to pirate the basic pharmaceuticals, like insulin, that keep so many alive?  Eveleth sits down with SciFri’s John Dankosky to explore the nuances of imagining possible futures, whose choices influence what may actually happen, and why this work matters, even when she gets it wrong. Plus, what was predictable—and what was not—about the COVID-19 pandemic.    The Global Pollinating Forces Behind Your Food Importing food from one country to another also means importing the resources that went into growing that food: Nutrients. Water. Sunlight. Human labor. And the labor of the bees, butterflies, or other insects and animals that provide pollination in that country’s ecosystems. Take Brazil, for example—Europe and the United States consume a large proportion of the country’s pollinator-dependent crops, from soybeans to mangoes, avocados, and other fruits. Writing in the scientific journal Science Advances in March, an interdisciplinary team of Brazilian researchers describe a way to quantify and visualize this flow of pollinator effort, from one country to another. They created an interactive web tool that lets anyone see this pollinator flow, for a specific country or a group of countries.  Importantly, the researchers say, the model makes it clear that this flow occurs mostly from poor countries to rich ones—with economic and ecological consequences for the poorer countries. Farmers, for example, may clear more land to grow crops for export, removing valuable pollinator habitat in the process. Those same farmers might then see their yields drop as pollinators die off, thanks to loss of habitat. Producer Christie Taylor talks to two members of the research team, economist Felipe Deodato da Silva e Silva, and ecologist Luisa Carvalheiro, about the importance of considering pollinators in global food trade, and how better informed policy and consumer choices might help preserve threatened biodiversity.  This segment is part of our spring SciFri Book Club.

Considering that Amazon Japan is the world's third-largest Amazon marketplace, it is massively overlooked by most Amazon sellers. This means of course that those who get past the barriers to entry face a lot less competition! And lower competition means easier sales and higher profits.  Having solved the issues of language in listings and ads, the next issue to solve is importing into Japan.  Again, with shipping times from China measured in days not weeks and within an effective VAT rate of only 10%, compared to the usual 20% coming into the UK or even higher in some European Union countries, there are many attractive aspects to exporting to Japan. But it does help to have a native guide or at least one who really understands the practical steps needed to import into Japan. Enter John Cant of Rising Sun Commerce.  John Cant has been using his Japanese cultural insights and connections to help Amazon sellers from the UK and North America to sell successfully in Japan for several years now.  You need an “importer of record” in Japan Various 3rd party service providers offer this Some freight forwarders offer this too If you don't have this, you'll end up stopped at customs   You'll Learn: Tax law in Japan Japanese VAT system The importance of not under-reporting Why you need to charge base on Sales price on Amazon Recommended products to sell and not to sell in Japan How to experiment in Japan

A year ago, Justin Smith was finishing up his junior season at Indiana. Today, he is a standout on the court and team leader for the Arkansas Razorbacks. After graduating in three years with a degree from IU's prestigious Kelley School of Business, Smith was looking for the next spot to take his game to the next level. Coach Musselman immediately impressed Smith. Even though Arkansas wasn't even originally on his radar, they became the frontrunners quickly. What is it about Musselman's program that enticed a Big Ten native to take his talents to the SEC? Smith adds insight into the mind of a transfer, what goes into the process and just what gave Musselman the ultimate edge.
