Welcome to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked, where we dive into the latest news and updates on Ozempic, from its medical uses to its effects on lifestyle and health.Ozempic, containing semaglutide, mimics a natural hormone called GLP-1 to release insulin, steady blood sugar, slow digestion, and curb appetite, helping listeners feel full longer. GoodRx reports that studies show people on Ozempic lose six to seven percent of body weight, while Wegovy users average fifteen percent.Recent Cochrane reviews commissioned by the World Health Organization, released February eleventh, twenty twenty-six, confirm GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic deliver meaningful weight loss. Semaglutide leads to about eleven percent reduction after six to seventeen months, with benefits lasting up to two years if continued. Tirzepatide in Mounjaro and Zepbound shows even higher losses around sixteen percent, though more research is needed. Liraglutide offers four to five percent loss.Real-world evidence from Applied Clinical Trials highlights heterogeneous results, typically four to twelve percent loss at six to twelve months. For a twelve percent drop, the drug accounts for sixty-three percent, with context like persistence, lifestyle, and care making up thirty-seven percent. Improving persistence could boost outcomes further.Many hit an Ozempic plateau after twelve months, per GoodRx. Factors include dose, timing, diet, exercise, stress, and other meds like sulfonylureas or antidepressants. Pair it with avoiding fried foods, high-fat items, sugary drinks, and ultra-processed foods for best results.Rutgers Health research in the Journal of Medical Internet Research finds sixty-seven percent of users report weight loss or less appetite despite side effects like nausea, prioritizing effectiveness to keep going. However, stopping leads to regain, though half maintain some loss after a year.Watch for Ozempic face, gauntness from facial fat loss, as noted in a PMC study, so discuss screening and diet with doctors.These updates show Ozempic transforms lives when combined with healthy habits, but long-term independent data is key.Thank you listeners for tuning in.

This week on Another Pass, Sam and Case are joined by Zorikh Lequidre to revisit Shazam! Fury of the Gods. We break down the sequel's mythic swing, its tonal tightrope between family comedy and divine spectacle, and whether this lightning strike deserved a brighter fate at the box office.

Complex Character History and Naming (02:43) The Shazam character has undergone multiple renamings, now sometimes called "The Captain" to differentiate from original versions. Comics have introduced variants like Mary Marvel and Junior (Freddie Freeman's hero name) to expand the lore. The character's fluctuating comic presence, with cancellations and restarts, impacts fan engagement and continuity. Zorak's project, Captain Marvel Culture, explores these variants in cultural and historical contexts, highlighting the character's societal relevance. Actor and Fan Perspectives on Shazam (07:30) Sam Alicea shared her positive cosplay experience as Mary Marvel, emphasizing the character's wholesome reception in fandom. Both Sam and Case Aiken noted that the first Shazam movie was colorful and fun, appealing to casual viewers with good pacing and humor. Case's personal connection to the character goes back to childhood superhero creations, reinforcing the deep fan roots. The first film balanced the youthful and superhero personas well, unlike the sequel where the older cast created dissonance. Challenges with Sequel Timing and Casting (14:00) The four-year gap between the first and second Shazam movies caused problematic aging of the cast, making the characters less believable as teenagers. The COVID-19 pandemic limited crowd scenes, affecting the movie's atmosphere and fight sequences, leading to a "COVID movie" feel with socially distanced extras. The sequel's timing made character maturity inconsistent, with Zachary Levi's older age conflicting with immature superhero behavior, reducing audience sympathy. The lack of continuity in character growth and the absence of younger kid scenes weakened the family dynamic established in the first film. Plot, Powers, and Mythological Elements The movie's story and mythological adaptations were discussed, focusing on the Daughters of Atlas and their powers, plus how mythology was reinterpreted (28:58). Invented Mythology and Powers of Atlas' Daughters (29:00) The film introduced three daughters of Atlas, a creative deviation from classical mythology that was accepted as a fun concept. Helen Mirren's character uses force fields and telekinesis, Lucy Liu's character employs "chaos" powers resembling mind control, and Rachel Zegler's character has axis-based powers, visually impressive but not well explained. The powers were often scene-dependent rather than consistent, especially Helen Mirren's varying abilities. The dome barrier served as a plot device to isolate the final fight and prevent intervention from other heroes, a trope common in superhero films. Mythology vs. Comic Lore (31:33) The movie used traditional Shazam power origins (Solomon, Hercules, Atlas, Zeus, Achilles, Mercury) rather than newer comic variations. Discussion considered linking the characters to the broader DC mythos, such as the New Gods, but the film stuck to simpler concepts. The film's magic and powers were occasionally connected to Dungeons & Dragons references, reflecting the script's mix of fantasy influences. The casting of iconic actors like Helen Mirren and Lucy Liu added gravitas despite the powers being plot-driven. Narrative and Visual Critiques of Powers and Effects (35:00) The dome and powers' visual effects felt forced or inconsistent, serving more as story contrivances than meaningful world-building. The chaotic power, mainly mind control, lacked thematic clarity despite being the most consistent. The movie struggled to integrate powers into the plot logically, often introducing new abilities at convenience moments. The limited impact of the dome on the city was noted, with little attention to realistic consequences of such an event. Family Dynamics and Character Development A major theme was how the sequel mishandled the Shazam family dynamic, focusing too much on superhero forms and not enough on the kids' human sides (40:00). Underused Supporting Characters and Forced Representation (40:00) Pedro's gay reveal felt forced due to minimal screen time and lack of character development. The less prominent kids, especially Eugene and Pedro, were overshadowed by their superhero forms, weakening emotional engagement. Darla remained the heart of the family, carrying much of the emotional weight and humor, consistent with the first film. The sequel relied heavily on superhero personas rather than showing genuine child characters, harming the family's relatability. Mismatch of Actor Ages and Character Portrayals (46:30) The aging cast, particularly Zachary Levi, struggled to convincingly portray teenage characters, making immature behavior less palatable. The lack of contrasting younger versions of Billy and other kids reduced the dynamic tension present in the original movie. The sequel missed chances to explore Billy's growth and his struggles with leadership and abandonment issues meaningfully. Sam noted the film's good attempt to show Billy's fear of aging out of foster care as a motivation, but this was not fully developed. Lost Opportunities for Emotional Payoff (53:00) The film failed to create a satisfying emotional journey for Billy, especially regarding his insecurities and leadership challenges. The family's support was underutilized in key moments, leaving Billy's character arc feeling incomplete. The sequel lacked the sense of belonging and acceptance that made the first film's family dynamic resonate. Case and Sam suggested that a powerful second-act scene showing Billy's vulnerability and the family's encouragement was needed to strengthen the story. Critique and Proposed Fixes for the Sequel The panel proposed several realistic improvements to the sequel's structure, pacing, and character focus to enhance its emotional and narrative impact (56:00). Strengthening the Second Act and Family Bonding (56:00) Add scenes where the kids remain in their human forms to highlight their vulnerabilities, creating richer character moments. Insert a confrontation scene where Billy expresses frustration at the family's lack of unity, followed by reassurance from siblings. Shorten or remove the cringy Wonder Woman date scene to maintain tone and pacing. Show more of the lesser-used kids at school, depicting their struggles balancing normal life and superhero identities. Improving the Final Battle with the Dragon (31:30, 56:00, 01:32:50) Make the fight more dynamic by having Billy repeatedly say "Shazam" to power up the staff, requiring him to transform back to human form intermittently. Introduce stages in the fight where the hero tries different tactics, fails, then devises a winning plan. Include moments of vulnerability where Billy dodges attacks and avoids damage, adding tension and realism. Use the environment inside the dome better, possibly including some civilians or other stakes, if COVID protocols allow. Enhancing Character Scenes and Emotional Arcs (01:40:00) Show the kids' defeat when Helen Mirren's character escapes by turning back into their child forms, emphasizing their youth and fallibility. Add a scene where Billy admits to failure and receives encouragement from his siblings, reinforcing the family theme. Develop more natural, character-driven moments such as a school scene involving Skittles, tying in humor and personality. Streamline the plot to reduce the number of major events, allowing more screen time for character interactions and growth. Long-Term Franchise Vision: TV Series Format (01:14:30, 01:49:00) The panel agreed a TV series would better suit the story, allowing the actors to age naturally and explore the characters in depth. Proposed dividing the cast so Billy, Mary, and Freddie attend college while the younger kids remain in high school, creating parallel storylines. This approach resembles a "Happy Days with superpowers" format, supporting gradual character evolution and maintaining audience engagement. The TV format would also allow passing powers to new kids as the original characters grow up, ensuring franchise longevity. Production Context and External Influences The discussion recognized COVID-19's major impact on production, release timing, and overall movie quality, affecting creative decisions and execution (14:00, 01:52:00). COVID-19 Pandemic Effects (14:00) Production delays and social distancing protocols limited extras and crowd scenes, affecting the movie's atmosphere and fight choreography. The necessity of a smaller dome and fewer characters in scenes was a direct result of COVID restrictions. The four-year gap between movies was unplanned but forced by the pandemic, causing casting and story continuity issues. These factors contributed to the movie feeling disjointed and less cohesive compared to the first film. Script and Franchise Challenges (25:00) Multiple script rewrites were needed after Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam was spun off into his own movie, forcing major plot changes. The absence of Black Adam as a villain removed a key expected antagonist, weakening the sequel's threat level and fan expectations. The movie was released amid DC's shifting cinematic universe plans, reducing the likelihood of future sequels or franchise expansion. Despite plans to connect with the Justice Society and tease Mr. Mind, these elements remained unresolved, signaling franchise uncertainty. Casting and Political Context (01:06:00) Gal Gadot's performance as Wonder Woman was noted as uneven and disconnected from the main cast's energy. The panel acknowledged Gadot's political stances have affected her reception among some fans, adding complexity to her role's acceptance. The awkwardness of Billy's romantic scene with Wonder Woman was criticized for tone and appropriateness, detracting from character coherence. Zachary Levi's personal controversies and public persona complicated audience reception of his performance, especially given the film's tonal demands.

Following a better-than-expected jobs report and a cooler inflation print, David Busch expects this will be "a huge benefit to risk assets." He later addresses the concerns about AI disruption to the labor market, saying "white-collar jobs" might feel more impact. David later describes his investing approach, including a "pivot to quality." On the recent selling pressures in software companies, he thinks the selloff is "a bit overdone" but says the group will eventually play defense with AI technology. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Most entrepreneurs are solving the wrong problems. They're rebuilding webinars that ten people see. Improving close rates when they're only taking two calls a week. Polishing things downstream while the real kink chokes off all the flow. Your business is a hose.

In this episode, I'm teaching you how to map your hose, find the first kink, and stop wasting time on problems that aren't actually your constraint.

Improving fundys, metals among reasons for EM optimism David Hauner argues that Emerging Markets (EM) remain a compelling opportunity, supported by favorable macro, valuation, and structural tailwinds. A weaker USD, low real US rates, and improving fundamentals across many EM economies echo past multi‑year periods of strong EM performance. After more than a decade of underallocation, global investors are beginning to return, though positioning remains well below historical norms.

Your cardiovascular risk score reflects how well blood flows through your smallest vessels, and those same vessels determine whether your retina and optic nerve stay healthy as you age People with higher heart risk scores face a much greater chance of developing serious eye diseases years before vision problems become noticeable Eye damage builds quietly as vascular and metabolic stress accumulates, which explains why vision loss often appears before obvious heart symptoms Improving cellular energy and blood vessel health protects your eyesight by restoring circulation to your retina and optic nerve rather than reacting after damage occurs Using a heart risk score as an early vision warning gives you a practical way to act sooner, personalize prevention, and lower your risk of permanent vision loss

Abdominal organ procurement is a high-stakes operation that blends anatomy, speed, and coordinated teamwork. In this Behind the Knife episode, the UNMC transplant team walks through the practical “how-to” of deceased donor abdominal recovery—covering OR roles and logistics, key anatomic maneuvers, cannulation/flush troubleshooting, and the workflow differences that matter most between donation after brain death (DBD) and donation after circulatory death (DCD).HostsMadeline Cloonan, MD PhD – General Surgery Resident, University of Nebraska Medical Center (@maddie_cloonan) Evelyn Waugh, MD – Transplant Surgery Fellow, University of Nebraska Medical Center Jacqueline Dauch, MD – Abdominal Transplant Surgeon, University of Nebraska Medical Center Alex Maskin, MD – Kidney & Pancreas Transplant Surgeon, University of Nebraska Medical CenterLearning Objectives Compare DBD vs DCD donor workflow and define total vs functional warm ischemia.  Identify key OR roles and the ethical/legal separation of death declaration from procurement teams.  Outline the core steps of abdominal procurement, including exposure, cannulation, cross-clamp, and organ removal sequence.  Apply a practical troubleshooting approach when flush flow is inadequate References  Englesbe MJ, Mulholland MW.

To watch a video version of this podcast, click here: https://youtu.be/0US0bHGynQoIn this episode, Reuben Saltzman and Tessa Murry once again welcome Structure Tech's Service Manager, Eric Houseman, for a deep dive into one of the most debated topics in home inspections: flashing and exterior water management. Prompted by an email from fellow home inspector Chris, the discussion explores real-world challenges with flashing details, siding clearances, and the gap between best practices and industry standards. The episode highlights why these details are often overlooked, how that impacts homes, and what inspectors and homeowners should know to avoid costly hidden damage. Here's the link to Inspector Empire Builder: https://www.iebcoaching.com/eventsTakeaways“No damage yet” is not a valid reason to ignore improper flashing—problems can take years to surface.You often cannot confirm the absence of damage without intrusive inspection, so assumptions are risky.Even small, undersized, or poorly angled kick‑out flashings can increase water intrusion potential.Head flashing/drip caps above windows and doors are universally required by manufacturers—even if local builders claim otherwise.Context matters: overhangs, siding type, wall assembly, and home age affect how serious missing flashing is.Water‑resistant barriers and tape alone cannot replace properly installed rigid flashing.When in doubt, report the defect clearly and let the builder or homeowner decide the next steps.Home inspectors must balance clarity, liability, and real‑world practicality when writing reports.Builder and agent pushback is common—but manufacturer instructions are the ultimate authority.Good bedside manner and client communication can prevent inspectors from being labeled “deal killers.”Chapters00:00  Intro and episode setup00:27  Welcoming back Eric Houseman00:56  Show sponsor: IEB01:40  Listener Chris's email and the topic of exterior water‑management defects02:47  Question 1: Kick‑out flashing05:23  Undersized or improperly angled kick‑outs06:15  “There's no damage—why mention it?”08:06  When and why Structure Tech calls out inadequate kick‑outs09:43  Real‑world builder behavior and simple fixes11:11  How wording in reports focuses on increased potential for problems12:10  Balancing best practice and liability13:53  Question 2: Drip caps and head flashing17:12  Why windows and openings universally require rigid flashing18:37  Builder pushback: “It's not required.”21:07  What siding manufacturers expect (and why it matters)24:03  Considering home age, siding type, and overhangs25:46  A continuum of concern: stucco vs. vinyl28:08  How Structure Tech phrases drip‑cap comments29:12  Question 3: Z‑flashing, drainage gaps, and siding clearance31:57  Manufacturer requirements vs. real‑world installations32:46  Structure Tech's canned report language36:57  Should you mention missing kick‑outs on older homes?

In this episode of the By Any Means Coaches Podcast, Coleman Ayers dives into one of the most common, and most mishandled, questions in basketball: how do you develop players during the season without sacrificing team performance? With limited time, energy, and gym access, Coleman breaks down why generic “vitamin” work and feel-good reps often fail to transfer, and how intentional player development can actually solve team problems rather than distract from winning.Coleman outlines a practical, system-aligned approach to in-season player development, centered around individualized player development plans, rate limiters, and superpowers. He explains how to use small-sided games, constraints, and representative environments to build better decision-makers, improve confidence, and directly impact team success.
