In this episode of Data Dump, we dive into Zac Veen's recent AAA surge and what's changed since his rocky big league stint. While the surface stats look promising — a 105 wRC+, improved ISO, and better K/BB rates — his issues with elevated fastballs still raise red flags? We dissect his swing decisions, zone contact rates, and plate discipline to see if this version of Veen is sustainable.Then, it's draft time. We break down two lefty college arms — Jamie Arnold vs. Liam Doyle — and stack up their raw stuff, pitch shapes, and how each might (or might not) translate at Coors. Is Doyle's elite fastball and five-pitch mix worth the risk? Is Arnold's CH/SL combo a safer fit?We wrap with a look at Aiva Arquette, a big-bodied, power-hitting shortstop who might remind Rockies fans of a certain franchise icon. Does the pop and glove profile fit what this org needs?

Send us a textMicrosoft recently released 137 security patches, with 14 critical vulnerabilities that could allow attackers to seize control of Windows systems with minimal user interaction. Among these, the Windows authentication negotiation flaw rated at 9.8 severity poses a significant threat to all current Windows versions. For security professionals, this underscores the crucial importance of effective patch management strategies—balancing timely updates against thorough testing procedures.When approaching CISSP certification, understanding different investigation types provides essential context for security operations. Administrative investigations address potential policy violations and inappropriate resource usage, while criminal investigations gather evidence when laws are broken. Civil investigations resolve disputes between parties, regulatory investigations examine compliance with industry mandates, and standards investigations assess adherence to best practices like ISO 27001. Each investigation type requires distinct approaches and yields different outcomes, from disciplinary actions to legal proceedings.The security documentation hierarchy—policies stating high-level objectives, standards specifying mandatory requirements, procedures providing step-by-step instructions, and guidelines offering flexible recommendations—creates a comprehensive framework for organizational security. However, these documents must use clear, accessible language that employees can understand and apply, not just legal jargon that looks impressive but goes unread.Business continuity planning begins with a thorough Business Impact Analysis that identifies critical functions and establishes recovery objectives. This foundational work must involve stakeholders from across the organization to ensure operational reality aligns with security requirements. Similarly, personnel security extends beyond employee screening to include robust onboarding, transfer, and termination procedures—with equivalent controls for third-party relationships.Risk management concepts form the core of security operations, from identifying threats and vulnerabilities to selecting appropriate controls. Understanding the distinction between preventative, detective, corrective, deterrent, and compensating controls enables security professionals to build comprehensive protection strategies. Combined with threat modeling methodologies like STRIDE and PASTA, these concepts create the framework for proactive security postures.Ready to deepen your CISSP knowledge?

Bienvenue sur la Radio Circulab (ex Activer l'Economie Circulaire) Aujourd'hui, Justine et Brieuc nous invitent à plonger au cœur des paradoxes de la réglementation européenne !Pourquoi des initiatives cruciales comme la CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) sont actuellement "torpillées", malgré leur adoption même en Chine et leur rôle essentiel dans l'approche de pérennité des entreprises ? Comment cette situation pousse les entreprises éclairées à voir l'économie circulaire non plus comme une contrainte, mais comme une stratégie de pérennité ?Quant au Passeport Produit Digital (DPP), levier stratégique énorme pour l'avenir de la réparation, du réemploi et du remanufacturing, ce nouvel outil offre un potentiel incroyable pour les produits neufs et reconditionnés, en fournissant une "fiche d'identité commune" accessible.Nous abordons ensemble tous ces sujets :Comment les entreprises ayant déjà investi dans la CSRD continuent leurs démarches, car un retour en arrière leur coûterait désormais trop cher.Pourquoi le DPP, qui est purement économique et technique, pourrait devenir un outil stratégique puissant pour l'alignement des chaînes de valeur, la relocalisation et la prévention des actions néfastes.Le lien direct entre le DPP et le Product Data Sheet (PCDS), un standard qui vise à rendre l'information sur les produits plus accessible et à soutenir l'économie circulaire.La tension entre la vision purement écologique et l'aspect économique de l'économie circulaire, et comment les standards internationaux comme les normes ISO sur l'économie circulaire peuvent aider à unifier le langage et les objectifs.Les enjeux économiques et environnementaux qui façonnent l'avenir de l'économie circulaire sont très challengés actuellement. Le contexte géopolitique, à la fois "flippant et enthousiasmant", redéfinit la manière dont les entreprises abordent la durabilité.Pour aller plus loin : Baladez-vous sur notre site internet (tout neuf) ; Téléchargez nos outils sur la Circulab Academy ; Inscrivez-vous à notre newsletter ; Envoyez-nous vos retours ou suggestions sur Linkedin : Justine Laurent et Brieuc Saffré.

La métrologie, c'est la science de la mesure. Dit comme ça, cela paraît abstrait, voire anodin. Pourtant, sans elle, rien ne fonctionne : ni l'industrie, ni le commerce, ni la médecine, ni même le numérique. C'est elle qui garantit que le temps, le poids, la température, la tension électrique ou encore les doses de médicaments sont mesurés de manière fiable, reproductible… et surtout comparable d'un pays à l'autre.Mais pourquoi est-elle stratégique ? Parce qu'elle est à la base de toute technologie avancée. Prenons l'exemple des semi-conducteurs : graver des circuits de quelques nanomètres sur une puce exige des instruments de mesure d'une précision extrême. Même chose pour les satellites, les vaccins à ARN, les lasers industriels ou les réseaux électriques intelligents. Celui qui maîtrise la métrologie… maîtrise la technologie.Et cela, la Chine l'a bien compris. En mai 2025, Pékin a dévoilé un plan d'action ambitieux pour révolutionner sa métrologie d'ici 2030. Objectif : devenir leader mondial dans ce domaine discret mais fondamental. Baptisé « Plan pour une métrologie moderne et autonome », il vise à réduire la dépendance technologique vis-à-vis des standards occidentaux — en particulier européens et américains — et à imposer ses propres standards dans les échanges mondiaux.La Chine veut notamment :– renforcer ses laboratoires nationaux de métrologie ;– développer des instruments de mesure de nouvelle génération, basés sur la photonique ou la quantique ;– imposer ses références industrielles dans les secteurs clés : batteries, hydrogène, 5G, médecine de précision, IA embarquée…Mais au-delà de la souveraineté technologique, il y a un enjeu géopolitique. Aujourd'hui, les standards de mesure internationaux — ceux utilisés dans les échanges commerciaux ou dans les normes ISO — sont encore largement pilotés par des institutions occidentales, comme le Bureau international des poids et mesures (BIPM). En développant ses propres références, la Chine cherche à influencer ces règles… et donc à peser davantage dans le commerce mondial.C'est aussi une réponse à la fragmentation croissante du monde. À mesure que les blocs technologiques s'autonomisent, chaque puissance veut ses propres chaînes de valeur — et cela commence par ses propres instruments de mesure.La métrologie n'est donc plus une affaire de laboratoires poussiéreux. Elle est devenue une arme de précision dans la grande bataille pour la domination technologique du XXIe siècle. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Andrew Clearwater is a Partner at Dentons' Privacy and Cybersecurity Team and a recognized authority in privacy and AI governance. Formerly a founding leader at OneTrust, he oversaw privacy and AI initiatives, contributed to key data protection standards, and holds over 20 patents. Andrew advises businesses on responsible tech implementation, helping navigate global regulations in AI, data privacy, and cybersecurity. A frequent speaker, he offers insight into emerging compliance challenges and ethical technology use. In this episode… Many companies are diving into AI without first putting governance in place. They often move forward without defined goals, leadership, or alignment across privacy, security, and legal teams. This leads to confusion about how AI is being used, what risks it creates, and how to manage those risks. Without coordination and structure, programs lose momentum, transactions are delayed, and expectations become harder to meet. So how can companies build a responsible AI governance program? Building effective AI governance programs starts with knowing what's in use, why it's in use, what data AI tools and systems collect, the risk it creates, and how to manage it. Standards like ISO 42001 and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework help companies guide this process. ISO 42001 offers the benefit of certification and supports cross-functional consistency, while NIST may be better suited for organizations already using it in related areas. Both frameworks help companies define the scope of AI use cases, understand the risks, and inform policies before jumping into controls. Conducting data inventories and utilizing existing risk management processes are also essential in identifying shadow AI introduced by employees or third-party vendors. In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels speak with Andrew Clearwater, Partner at Dentons, about how companies can build responsible AI governance programs. Andrew explains how standards and legal frameworks support consistent AI governance implementation and how to encourage alignment between privacy, security, legal, and ethics teams. He also outlines the importance of monitoring shadow AI across third-party vendors and practical steps companies can take to effectively structure their AI governance programs.

Every once in a while, I sit down with a guest who reminds me exactly why I started this podcast in the first place. That was the case with Kelly Denison, the second-generation owner of Continental Machine Company in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Kelly is the kind of leader who sees his machine shop not just as a business—but as a vehicle for opportunity, growth, and purpose. In our conversation, we talked about what it means to carry forward a legacy. Kelly's dad bought the business in 2000, and by 2020, Kelly had earned his way into full ownership—not by entitlement, but by doing every job in the shop. From janitor to programmer to accountant, he worked his way up and built a deep understanding of what it takes to run a shop. But what struck me most was his mindset. Kelly isn't just making precision parts—he's making machinists. He's building careers, instilling pride, and leading with heart. From funding a church in Costa Rica to mentoring his team toward mastery, Kelly is proving that shop ownership can be both profitable and profoundly meaningful. If you've ever wrestled with succession, struggled with ISO as a “quality burden,” or wondered how to build a values-driven culture that retains talent, this episode is for you. It's packed with humility, honesty, and hard-earned wisdom. I walked away inspired—and I know you will too. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...

Jeanne introduces the concept of the “silent slide,” where suppliers fail to pass on cost savings, and emphasizes the importance of using commodity price indices to negotiate fair pricing and avoid overpaying. The conversation covers practical steps for identifying key suppliers, preparing data-driven negotiations, planning for tariff volatility, and leveraging resources like IMEC and the nationwide MEP network to build resilient, informed supplier relationships.   Helpful Resources: Contact Jeanne: 847-337-2224 or email jperron@imec.org How is ISO 9001 Implemented?:  https://www.thecoresolution.com/how-is-iso-9001-implemented For All Things ISO 9001:2015: https://www.thecoresolution.com/iso-9001-2015 Contact us at 866.354.0300 or email us at info@thecoresolution.com A Plethora of Articles: https://www.thecoresolution.com/free-learning-resources ISO 9001 Consulting: https://www.thecoresolution.com/iso-consulting

ISO Standards are often a must have due to stakeholder requirements, whether that's from your customers, investors or regulators. The need for multiple ISO certifications is also becoming more common, which can become a tricky task to juggle if you're managing these as separate systems. The solution? An Integrated Management System. In this episode, Steph Churchman explains what an integrated management system is, how the Annex SL format facilitates integration and the benefits and challenges involved with an IMS. You'll learn ·      What is an Integrated Management System? ·      Why consider an IMS? ·      What is the Annex SL format? ·      What are the benefits of an IMS? ·      What are the challenges of implementing an IMS?     Resources ·      Isologyhub   In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – Steph explains what an Integrated Management System is, how the Annex SL format makes this possible and dives into the benefits and challenges associated with an IMS. [02:20] What is an Integrated Management System? Often abbreviated to ‘IMS', it simply refers to a management system based off certification to or alignment with multiple ISO Standards. For example, a company may be certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 but will only have 1 Management system rather than 3 sperate systems. [03:30] What is the Annex SL format? The Annex SL format was applied to most ISO Standards back in 2015. This format helped to create a consistent 10 clause structure which makes it simple to integrate multiple ISO Standards. Before this was introduced, not all Standard clauses aligned, making it difficult to audit against and combine with other Standards, even if they had similar requirements. [04:00] The Annex SL 10 Clause Structure explained:– ·      The first 3 clauses are explanatory clauses. These give you more context for the purpose of the standards, as well as providing a helpful glossary of terms and definitions that you'll come across in the Standard. These clauses aren't audited against ·      Clause 4 - Context of the Organisation: This is where you'll be establishing your scope, your interested parties and looking at where your risks and opportunities are. It's setting the foundation for your Management system. ·      Clause 5 Leadership: This is where you'll need commitment from top management. They will need to be involved with tasks such as establishing key policies, assigning roles & responsibilities and communicating the Management System once you're ready to launch it. ·      Clause 6 Planning: This is where you will look at the risks and opportunities raised during the context phase and plan what actions you'll take to address them. This is in addition to setting your business objectives. ·      Clause 7 Support: This is where you will establish the resources you have available to create and facilitate the running of the Management system. This clause gives you guidance for considerations such as people, infrastructure, monitoring and measurement needs, competence of staff and key communication requirements. ·      Clause 8 Operation: This clause is where the main differences can be found between ISO Standards. It provides guidance on considerations for key processes and procedures relating to the Standard focus. ISO 9001 for example contains a rather chunky clause 8 as it details requirements for products and services, including the development and provision of them. While ISO 27001's clause 8 focuses more on information security risk assessments and risk treatment plans. ·      Clause 9 Performance Evaluation: This is where you establish the who, what and when involved in the monitoring, measurement and evaluation of your management system. This is also where Internal Auditing requirements are detailed. ·      Clause 10 Continual Improvement: This is the driving force of all ISO Standards. In this last clause you'll find requirements for Management review and non-conformity and corrective action. That's simply about reviewing the effectiveness of the Management system and putting plans in place to correct any non-conformities raised, or act on any of those opportunities for improvement. [08:00] IMS Benefit #1: Cost Saving – ISO Implementation can get costly, especially if you're investing in a consultancy to help you in addition to the certification body costs involved in the actual assessment. You can save money by implementing multiple standards at the same time. At Blackmores, we're happy to help you implement multiple ISO's at the same time. This saves on the time spent if you were to do them separately, as we typically combine elements of the selected standards in project days such as during a Gap analysis, document creation and internal audits. On the certification body side, you can save on assessment days by assessing against an integrated management system, rather than assessing against 2 separate management systems. Many will do their best to accommodate integrated assessment and surveillance audits. [09:05] IMS Benefit #2: Reduced Duplication and Increased Efficiency - There are elements of a Management system that you can combine to not only save money but also reduce document and process duplication, which leads to a more efficient system. We've seen companies trying to manage separate systems over the years, and often times they end up just causing confusion, or only being adhered to by specific departments within a business. This results in duplicated work as shared elements of compliance are being managed in two different ways, often with slightly different styles of documents. Save yourself the trouble and headache by integrating all relevant management system documentation into 1 system. It makes it so much easier to update and keep on top of, and to enable it to act as a real tool for continual improvement rather than being thought of as a chore to upkeep. [10:10] IMS Benefit #3: Improved Communication and Collaboration - An integrated system encourages communication between all elements of your business. This holistic approach is often broken down into silos for select departments to focus on select objectives, which in turn encourages invested teamwork which will contribute to the business's success as a whole. Internal Audits will also allow employees from every level to feedback to the system, highlighting key areas for improvement that could be rolled out. We see a lot of companies leveraging integrated management systems in various ways, often using them as a springboard to launch company wide initiatives that encourage further collaboration. These are then tracked, monitored and reported on in a similar way to other company objectives, all guided by the processes put in place by the Management system. [11:20] IMS Benefit #4: Enhanced Risk Management - Integrating multiple Standards will mean you have greater comprehension and risk assessment of multiple different aspects across your business, such as quality, environmental and Health & Safety. Many start with ISO 9001, as that's a fantastic solid foundation for a Management system, it builds in all the core policies and procedures needed to run a business smoothly, but it doesn't touch on the specifics of environmental management or information security. For that, you'd need to integrate other standards to ensure you have robust measures to tackle those other elements. [12:15] IMS Benefit #5: Streamlined Auditing Processes - Internal Audits act as a good measure of where things are going right and wrong, in addition to being a dummy run for your certification assessment if it's your first time going through the process. Internal Audits are also an element which can be combined, this allows you to save time for the auditees, which reduces the amount of disruption they may cause overall. It also reduces the overall amount of audit reports for review, saving a duplication of effort on auditing similar elements across multiple standards. [13:00] IMS Benefit #6: Better Decision-Making - By having a more unified view of all processes and performance across different management areas, leadership can make more informed decisions. ISO Standards require a Management Review, which is where you can review audit findings and put plans in place to resolve any non-conformities and address any opportunities for improvement. Don't forget to highlight any achievements and lessons learned too! As these can be applied elsewhere in the business. [14:00] IMS Benefit #7: Increased Stakeholder Confidence - ISO Standards are a mark of best practice, they are an internationally recognised seal of approval that proves your commitment to either quality, safety and sustainability. This competitive advantage will also serve you when going for funding or to tender. [14:40] IMS Benefit #8: Improved Organizational Performance and Culture - An integrated Management system ensures that everyone is unified in their way of working. It also fosters a culture of continual improvement, that encourages participation from all levels within the business. Having a central integrated system makes things simple for everyone to understand. No one has to search out different processes for a separate quality and environmental management system, when they could all be combined and stored in 1 location. An integrated management system approach also allows for you to collaborate across multiple different focus areas such as quality, safety and sustainability. Objectives for each can be siloed and focused on by select departments, but can still be contributed to from any part of the business. Be open about the results in different areas of the business and encourage suggestions for improvement, this is how you'll foster a culture of continuous Improvement. [16:05] IMS Challenge #1: Initial set-up and resourcing - Implementing ISO Standards aren't a small task. If you're implementing multiple ISO Standards from the start, you'll need to consider the people, time and expertise needed to complete the task. This may include the assistance of a dedicated ISO consultancy, as they'll have the expertise to guide you through the process smoothly. At Blackmores, we can help you implement an IMS that is bespoke to the way you work. It may be tempting to go with an out of the box solution, but these would need tailoring to be at all effective and likely won't get you past certification with a UKAS accredited Certification Body. Learn about the differences between a UKAS and Non-UKAS accredited Certification Body on one of our previous podcasts. [17:30] IMS Challenge #2: Resistance to change - People will be used to working a certain way, often siloed into systems unique to their departments. Or if you've already held 1 ISO certification, integrating others will mean change to that existing system that others may not be open to at first. It will involve either new or updated policies and procedures that will take some time for everyone to adapt to. The key here is communication. Not only to communicate the change, but allow people to voice any concerns they have about new ways of working. You may also need to issue additional training to help others adapt. [18:20] IMS Challenge #3: Lack of top leadership commitment - If you want people to care about the management system, commitment to it needs to come from the top down. If the leadership doesn't care about it, why should anyone else? Any good leadership should want a holistic approach for monitoring various elements of the business, if only to make more informed decisions. An integrated Management system can provide the base to facilitate this, and it's in leaderships best interest to keep ahead of any emerging challenges or opportunities that can be leveraged. [19:10] IMS Challenge #4: Integration of IT systems and data - Integrating your management system may require the integration of IT systems and existing data. If you have separate management systems currently, they may be operating on different databases or formats that may be difficult to combine. In some cases, an integrated management system is a good opportunity to refresh the way you work, it could be seen as a chance to look at other tech options out there that could be more cost effective or introduce new much needed functionality. [19:50] IMS Challenge #5: Maintaining Scope and Avoiding Over-Complication - There is a risk that you may try to bite off a bit more than you can chew when integrating management systems. We recommend starting with a smaller scope, as this acts as a good test that can be rolled out to the wider business if it's effective. Many may start with just one site and then seek to roll out the changes to the wider business over the course of a few years. This is definitely an approach we encourage, as each location will have its own teething problems to work through, which is much more manageable when tackled in chunks at a time rather than all at once.

Get ready for a deep, unfiltered convo on "Hip Hop Generational Curses" with Ern and Iso!

In this episode of the Global Medical Device Podcast, Etienne Nichols sits down with seasoned MedTech founder and investor Jon Bergsteinsson to unpack a critical—but often overlooked—topic: budgeting in early-stage medical device startups. Drawing from his deep regulatory, clinical, and investment experience, Jon shares the red flags investors look for, the cost categories that founders routinely miss, and why a line item called “compliance” just doesn't cut it. Whether you're a startup founder, a regulatory lead, or a project manager, this episode offers a sharp lens into the financial planning realities that can make or break product development and commercialization in MedTech.Key Timestamps02:34 – Why QMS, regulatory, and clinical are budget afterthoughts for startups06:45 – What separates experienced vs. inexperienced MedTech founders in budgeting10:20 – Why software and compliance tools get left out of early budgets14:12 – How missing budget detail impacts product quality and time-to-market19:04 – Red flags investors look for in MedTech startup budgets23:30 – How to improve budgeting accuracy without a CFO28:10 – Critical cost categories MedTech founders often overlook35:55 – Advice for recovering from a budgeting oversight39:40 – Comprehensive checklist of overlooked line items (manual translation, UDI, ISO licenses, and more)45:00 – Final advice: why networking trumps isolation for smarter budgetingStandout Quotes"Relying on the status quo is never good. There are always ways to do things better."Jon reminds founders and compliance professionals alike that innovation doesn't stop at the product level—it also applies to budgeting, systems, and team empowerment."Getting a 510(k) through is just the starting point. Budgeting like everything ends there is a massive red flag."This quote highlights the investor's perspective on sustainability and long-term thinking—crucial traits in any fundable founder.Key TakeawaysBroad Budget Buckets Signal InexperienceLumping all compliance-related costs under one line item may look tidy but signals to investors a lack of operational depth. Break out line items for QMS, clinical, regulatory, and software tools.Software and Tools Are Not Optional ExtrasFounders must factor in essential systems—like eQMS, CAD, risk management, and clinical data tools—early in budgeting. Assuming a single hire covers everything is a critical mistake.Budgets Must Reflect Time and Scale RealisticallyFlat budgets over 2–3 years, or those that assume regulatory costs end at market clearance, raise red flags. Investors expect dynamic budgeting that reflects the realities of growth, post-market surveillance, and team evolution.Outsourcing ≠ All-InclusiveMany startups underestimate the actual costs tied to consultants and CROs, assuming “someone else is handling it.” Always clarify what's included—and what's not.Recovery Is Possible—If You Own ItIf your budget's off-track, clear communication with your board and investors, a willingness to revise, and a plan for worst-case scenarios are your best tools for regaining credibility.ReferencesJon Bergsteinsson on LinkedInEtienne Nichols on LinkedInGreenlight Guru – QMS and Clinical platform for MedTech companiesMedTech...

AC Ace (1953). Un modelo que ahora se vuelve a fabricar y cuyas primeras entregas están previstas para este mismo verano. 2. Amilcar C6 (1926). Todos hemos leído y escuchado que la gran Isadora Duncan perdió la vida cuando su pañuelo se enrollo en el eje trasero del Bugatti conducido por Benoit Falchetto… todo es verdad salvo que el coche no era un Bugatti sino un Amilcar. 3. Bristol Fighter (2004). El Bristol Fighter de cuatro ruedas cuenta con un motor V10 de 8 litros y 532 CV, que suben a 660 en la versión S, para un peso de apenas 1.600 kg. Y no sé si es bonito, pero impresionante, sí. 4. Checker Marathon A12 (1975). Conocía este coche por las revistas, pero cuando fui a Nueva York estaba deseando subirme a uno, nada más parecía más norteamericano que este coche, ni siquiera la Coca Cola. 5. DAF 66 (1972). En la actualidad la marca holandesa DAF es muy conocida por sus camiones, pero también fabricó coches y unos coches muy originales. Aunque los hubo con motor de origen DAF estos modelos enseguida montaron motores de origen Renault de 1.1 y 1.3 litros y entre unos 45 y casi 60 CV. 7. Donkervoort D8 GTO-JD70 (2025). Seguimos con coches holandeses… que no es que haya habido muchos. Joop Donkervoort comenzó haciendo coches inspirados en los Lotus Super Seven, pero muy evolucionados. 7. Facel Vega Facel II (1962). El coche no era nada malo, pues resultaba bonito, potente gracias a su V8 Chrysler de más de 6 litros y 390 CV. Pero faltó marketing, servicio postventa y la marca, tras su último intento, el Facelia, cerró sus puertas. 8. Hillman Imp (1963). Este modelo me resulta simpático, pues su estética está inspirada en el innovador Chevrolet Corvair, pero en un coche que también contaba con motor posterior, pero era mucho, pero mucho más pequeño. 9. Hispano-Alemán Castilla (1972). La historia de este coche, como todas las historias que rodean al fundador de la marca, Ben Heidrich, parecen sacadas de una telenovela. 10. Horch 830 BL (1937). El automóvil que utilizó el General Charles De Gaulle en el famoso desfile por los Campos Elíseos el 18 de junio de 1945, tras la rendición de Alemania. 11. Iso Rivolta Lele (1969). Iso fabricó motos de gran calidad, mi padre tuvo una, motocarros de enorme éxito y… coches de lujo. En 1969 presente este Lele con la idea de competir con Ferrari, Lamborghini y Maserati… ambición no le faltaba a Piero Rivolta, hijo de Renzo Rivolta, fundador de la marca. 12. Jensen Interceptor (1966). A mí el coche me parece bonito a rabiar, original, casi desconocido y… no le he probado… así que, si alguien tiene uno por ahí, ¿me lo dejaría? 12+1. Marcos Mantara LM600 (1993). Jem Marsh y el aerodinamista Frank Costin decidieron crear una marca para hacer pequeños deportivos al estilo inglés… más tarde decidieron con sus ligeros coches hacer sus “pinitos” en competición… pero con el tiempo se fueron “viniendo arriba” y un día decidieron conquistar Le Mans. 14. Noble M400 (2006). Uno de los coches más modernos de esta selección y que también tuvo cierto éxito en competición. 15. Stutz Blackhawk (1971). Obra de Virgil Exner que contó con la ayuda del diseñador italiano Ghia y usó componentes de General Motors. Estaban de alguna manera inspirados en los clásicos Stutz, pero actualizados.

Yes!  You are in!  Are you a strong man?  Are you a strong woman?  What is a strong man?  Whoa, lot's of questions.  That's what we do here.  Getting Real and Pursuing Truth, oh and if you dig that opening hook, that is Marcus Rogers, Best Life, please buy/subscribe his music, here you go...Thank you Robert D. Wooten, making his debut as the play of the day on FriDudes.  NPHX not your debut yet major kudos for having that strong man speak.  I strongly encourage you to listen to the rest of that message, which can be found at this link in the show description...https://youtu.be/5bneMdVZHxM?si=nhoBZHQ4eDIFhkHGWays of the world will judge and say what is toxic.  Toxic masculinity?  You know what I call toxic?  Saying that if you are a certain gender or race that you are automatically toxic.  That is discrimination.  The Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., a black life with whom we celebrate and even honor with a national holiday says, "Let us select by content of character...not by color of skin.".  Gender can apply to that statement too."I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." Didn't we just have an episode on about not judging?  Yes!  And I so appreciate MLK Jr.'s words.  If we are to be judged, let it not by something trivial like skin color or gender, etc.  Character.  ISo let's get real and pursue some truth more.  We know the danger verse of judging (if not, back up one episode).  We know that verse that we are all flawed...Rom 3:23.  So we know there is no perfect character.  Yet we also know there are stronger characters than others.  We know a stronger character will show fruits of the spirit...Galatians 5:22 NLTBut the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulnessNLT: New Living Translationhttps://www.bible.com/bible/116/gal.5.22So a Strong Man = Strong Character.  Same with a strong woman.  Think about your favorite people.  Do you love people that take advantage of you or treat you with respect, the fruits mentioned above with character?  Yes, I love rhetorical questions.  Confession, at times, I have not been a Strong Man.  Avid listener, you know my dirt....if not back up, perhaps even to episode 1...if you dare.  Yet a Strong Man will confess in order to be healed, James 5:16.  A strong man will turn where needed and correct what can be corrected.  In progress right now.Are you worthy to be served/submitted?  Many religious like to point out wives submit to your husbands.  Not many point how it opens in Ephesians 5.  21 And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.  Eph 5:21https://www.bible.com/bible/116/EPH.5.NLTConfession, it is much easier to serve one another when we have our A games.  However, on the days we don't, what did/does your Jesus Christ do for you?  Does he forgive you?  If you believe and choose John 3:16 and Rom 8:1, then, yes, absolutely.  That's a Strong and Amazing Grace Savior.Matt 22: 36-40

In this episode, Patrick McKenzie (@patio11) is joined by Jennifer Li, a general partner at a16z investing in enterprise, infrastructure and AI. Jennifer breaks down how AI workloads are creating new demands on everything from inference pipelines to observability systems, explaining why we're seeing a bifurcation between language models and diffusion models at the infrastructure level. They explore emerging categories like reinforcement learning environments that help train agents, the evolution of web scraping for agentic workflows, and why Jennifer believes the API economy is about to experience another boom as agents become the primary consumers of software interfaces.–Full transcript: www.complexsystemspodcast.com/the-ai-infrastructure-stack-with-jennifer-li-a16z/–Sponsor:  VantaVanta automates security compliance and builds trust, helping companies streamline ISO, SOC 2, and AI framework certifications.

We Gonna Make It..

#574 In this episode of the podcast, I got brutally honest about an uncomfortable truth many photographers—myself included—often avoid: believing new gear will instantly make us better photographers. I dove into why so many of us, at some point, fixate on the idea that lack of equipment stands between us and the images we want to create. Drawing from my own experiences—like nearly convincing myself to buy a $7,500 Fujifilm GFX100 medium format camera after I left wedding photography—I shared how easy it is to fall into the "gear will fix it" trap, when what I really needed was to spend more time shooting.I challenged listeners (and myself) to rekindle excitement by using the equipment we already own. Whether that's taking a “camera date” or giving ourselves quirky creative assignments, the goal is to reconnect with the fun and freedom of shooting—without the pressure of perfection or the itch for an upgrade.KEY TOPICS COVEREDThe Gear Myth and Creative Ruts - Raymond explains how photographers often blame their uninspiring work on having outdated or entry-level gear. He shares his own experience almost buying an expensive Fujifilm GFX100, only to realize his creative rut was due to not shooting, not his equipment.What Really Makes a Great Photo? - Instead of megapixels and advanced specs, Raymond outlines the four essential elements of great photography: moment, light, composition, and exposure. He likens the camera to a toaster—it's the photographer's decisions that determine the quality of the image.Practical Steps for Rekindling Creativity - To break out of gear-focused thinking, Raymond suggests simple exercises like going on a “camera date” with the least-used gear or imposing creative constraints. He also stresses the value of learning manual mode and studying light and composition.IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS & CONCEPTS• Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS): The compulsion to buy new cameras or lenses as a solution to creative blocks or skill limitations; often a distraction from the real means of improvement.DISCUSSION & REFLECTION QUESTIONSThink back to your favorite photo you've taken—what role did your gear actually play in the outcome?Have you ever felt creatively stagnant and blamed your equipment? What actions could you take instead?What are some ways you can challenge yourself to see new possibilities with the gear you already own?Sign up for your free CloudSpot Account today at www.DeliverPhotos.comConnect with Raymond!
