How many times should you call a distressed seller before giving up? In this inspiring episode, Brent Daniels sits down with Kim Young, a true Rhino Tribe success story from Chicago, to talk about the power of persistence, gut instinct, and refusing to be crippled by creative avoidance.

In this episode, Alan Condon, Editor-in-Chief at Becker's Healthcare, discusses the surge in health system M&A, including the proposed Intermountain Health and AdventHealth joint venture in Colorado and Salem Health's merger with Santiam Memorial Hospital in Oregon. He also explores how financial pressures, regulatory flexibility and the need for greater scale are shaping health system partnerships and transactions.

Korean manufacturer Samsung SDI announced that it acquired General Motors' stake in the SynergyCells joint venture. The collaboration had planned to build a $3.5 billion electric vehicle battery cell factory in New Carlisle, Indiana, with the American automaker holding a 49.99% stake.Samsung SDI attributed the decision to market changes since the joint venture's conception in 2023, including “slower-than-expected growth of EV demand.” The company said it plans to continue building the facility, which would serve as its first independently operated battery production base in North America. The plant is currently under construction, though Samsung SDI did not provide an expected completion date. Once finished, the company now plans to make batteries for energy storage systems. Despite GM's exit from the joint venture, the two companies signed a new agreement to develop a prismatic battery cell for potential future EV applications, with Samsung SDI noting that the Indiana plant could eventually make the cells.General Motors and Samsung SDI formed their original partnership in April 2023 and selected New Carlisle as the plant site two months later. The joint venture intended to make nickel-rich prismatic and cylindrical cells, achieve a capacity of 30 gigawatt-hours, create 1,600 jobs and begin production in 2026. However, in August 2024, the companies delayed the production start to 2027 after construction had begun.GM's decision to sell its stake follows a January 8 SEC filing in which the automaker said it expected to record approximately $6 billion in charges in the fourth quarter of 2025 following its review of EV capacity and investments. The announcement comes as automakers scale back EV plans after the loss of a $7,500 EV federal tax credit last September.#GM, #GeneralMotors, #SamsungSDI, #EV, #ElectricVehicles, #EVBatteries, #BatteryManufacturing, #EnergyStorage, #Manufacturing, #IndianaManufacturing, #Automotive, #BatteryTechnology, #SupplyChain, #IndustrialNews, #ManufacturingNews

Heute sprechen wir über den Leapmotor B10, da wollte ich doch mal wissen, was der Name bedeutet. Also Leapmotor. Da konnte mir auch die KI nicht weiterhelfen, immerhin wusste sei, dass Leapmotor ein chinesischer Hersteller von Elektrofahrzeugen mit Sitz in Hangzhou ist, der 2015 gegründet wurde und ein Joint Venture mit dem Autokonzern Stellantis hat. Ein Englisch – Deutsch Übersetzungstool sagt, es hieße übersetzt „Sprungmotor“. Angesichts der Beschleunigung könnte das sogar stimmen. Wieso der Begriff aus dem Westfriesischen kommen soll, ist mir aber ein Rätsel! Darum geht es diesmal!Ab und zu sticht mich bei der Erstellung meiner Fahrberichte der Hafer, dann kann ich mir einen Gag nicht verkneifen. Also: Stellen Sie sich mal vor, Ihnen kommt auf der B10 ein B10 entgegen. Das erste B10 steht für eine ca. 240 Kilometer lange Bundesstraße im Südwesten Deutschlands. Das zweite für ein Elektrofahrzeug aus dem Hause Leapmotor. Und da man bei Elektroautos immer über die Reichweite spricht, folgt später noch eine amüsante Rechnung.  Das Outfit!Das elektrische C-SUV wurde von Leapmotor für Europa konzipiert, sein Exterieur ist ausdrucksstark. Es vereint elegante Kurven und klare, dynamische Linien zu einem markanten, modernen und jungen Look. Mit einer Länge von 4,51 Meter, einer Breite von 1,88 Meter und einer Höhe von 1,65 Meter ist der B10 perfekt für europäische Straßen geeignet. Testfahrten auf dem renommierten italienischen Testgelände Balocco haben das untermauert.  Power und Drive!    Kommen wir zum B10 auf der B10 und zu der besagten Rechnung zurück.  Wenn besagter Leapmotor B10 mit einer kleinen Batterie ausgestattet ist, schaffen Sie die B10 einmal hin und ein ganzes Stück zurück mit einer Ladung. Mit der großen Batterie fehlt nur ein kleines Stück beim Rückweg. In Zahlen ausgedrückt sprechen wir von Reichweiten von 361 bzw. 434 Kilometern WLTP-Reichweite. Der B10 wird immer von einem hocheffizienten Elektromotor mit 160 kW (218 PS) angetrieben, der den Wagen aus dem Reich der Mitte in nur 8 Sekunden von 0 auf 100 km/h und auf eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 170 km/h beschleunigt. Leapmotor hat ihn unter anderem mit 17 ADAS-Funktionen und einem 360°-Kamerasystem ausgestattet. ADAS steht übrigens für Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, zu gut Deutsch: fortschrittliche Fahrerassistenzsysteme.Die Kosten!Der Leapmotor B10 steht ab 29.900, -- Euro mit der 56,2 kWh Batterie und 361 km Reichweite (WLTP) beim Händler.  Mit einer Batteriekapazität von 67,1 kWh steigt die Reichweite auf bis zu 434 km (WLTP), der Preis auf 32.400 – Euro. Das ist ein gutes Angebot! Alle Fotos: © Leapmotor/Stellantis    Diesen Beitrag können Sie nachhören oder downloaden unter:

Has Wall Street been looking at hyperscaler debt all wrong? Lance Roberts & Michael Lebowitz examine claims that the "hidden debt" of AI hyperscalers has surged to $1.65 trillion through off-balance-sheet obligations, including long-term leases and infrastructure commitments. But does that mean the AI investment thesis is breaking down? We'll separate the headlines from the fundamentals by comparing the financial strength of Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Oracle. While hidden obligations deserve attention, not all debt carries the same risk, and not every hyperscaler should be viewed through the same lens. 0:00 INTRO 1:02 - ISM Looking Good, MFG at 4-year High 4:13 - Markets Take a Rest - time to rebalance? 9:27 - Forward Returns After Breakout to New Highs 14:04 - Open Source AI vs Closed Source AI 17:18 - Who Benefits, Regardless of Source?

A little throwback again, as this has come up so much this past few weeks...It's how to pitch a JV successfully! ▶︎ Website - www.thepropertyfinancecollective.co.uk▶︎ The Host - With a passion for creative finance and the ability to structure deals for Finance, I love helping first time Developers and Investors to get deals packaged for the finance needed to push Property Careers forward, and to date I have raised over £500 million for Developers and Investors. I first got into property at the age of 18 when I got into Conveyancing straight out of school. I then went into Estate Agency, back into Conveyancing and I then got into brokering at the age of 22. I decided a year and a half later that I wanted to work for myself and try and shake up the market place! At the age of 24 I set up The Property Finance Guy and became the youngest owner of a Commercial Finance Brokerage in the Country, and alongside this I now also have a successful Training Company, educating Investor and Developers on how to raise finance, and a successful Podcast.I am a keen public speaker and have delivered training and speeches to over 1000 investors and developers over the past 2 years.Follow Michael:▶︎ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/thepropfinguy/▶︎ Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepropertyfinanceguy/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ LinkedIn - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-primrose-886a365b/?originalSubdomain=uk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen to the Podcast on:▶︎ Apple Podcasts - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-property-finance-podcast/id1448207494⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ Spotify - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/7JiDtm7hc0EfSW9LjCXDaO⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ YouTube - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@thepropertyfinanceguy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ Disclaimer - With the market changing so quickly, the content could be out of date at the time of listening.This Content is for informational purposes only, you should not construe any such information or other material as legal, tax, investment, financial, or other advice.

Disputes arising out of construction and infrastructure joint-venture projects This podcast explores the rising complexity of disputes in infrastructure joint ventures and the key issues that drive them. With large-scale, long-term projects bringing together multiple parties, the potential for disagreement is inherent. In this episode, we discuss: 1) why infrastructure joint ventures are particularly prone to complex disputes, given their scale, duration, capital intensity and the interdependence of responsibilities; 2) the most common areas of contention, including funding and capital calls, governance and deadlock, exit and valuation, as well as downstream construction disputes involving scope changes, cost overruns and the relationship between JV entities and their participants; and 3) key takeaways for C-suite executives and lawyers. 本期我们专注基础设施合资企业中日益复杂的争议问题及其主要成因。大型、长期的基础设施项目汇集了多方参与者，分歧的产生在所难免。在本期节目中，我们将围绕以下三个方面展开讨论：1）首先，我们将分析为何基础设施合资企业特别容易引发复杂争议，包括项目规模大、周期长、资本密集以及各方责任高度交织等因素 ；2）其次，我们将探讨最常见的争议领域，涵盖出资与增资催缴、治理与僵局、退出与估值，以及涉及范围变更、成本超支和合资实体与参与方之间关系的下游施工争议 ；3）最后，我们将为企业高管和法律从业者提供关键建议。

China's growing use of economic power for strategic and political purposes has become one of the defining features of international competition. Beijing is no longer simply using trade and investment to promote economic growth—it is increasingly deploying a sophisticated toolkit of laws, regulations, export controls, market access, infrastructure investment, and technological standards to advance its broader geopolitical objectives.   In today's episode, we'll explore how China's approach to economic statecraft has evolved, how effective it has been, its impact on Chinese foreign policy – especially relations with the United States -- and what governments around the world can do in response. I'm delighted to be joined by Dr. Evan Medeiros, one of the leading experts on Chinese foreign policy, including its use of economic statecraft, to help us unpack these important issues.   Dr. Medeiros is the Penner Family Chair in Asia Studies in the School of Foreign Service and the Cling Family Distinguished Fellow in US-China Studies at Georgetown University. He served seven years in President Obama's NSC first as director for China, Taiwan and Mongolia, and then as Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for Asia.

Ross has been taking notes and wants a follow up conversation on the ways that physical play creates an entry point for social relationships. Tom points out how joint ventures in the physical world create openings for friendship—bumping cars, filling big buckets with sand. Joey is reminded of recent statue game where physical play was a path to quickly forming relationships. Mike wonders if physical games are more like choreography than a written script. In the end, do we just need more time for play?

Last Monday, Verizon and BT unexpectedly announced a joint venture that would combine their international enterprise operations. The new business is expected to serve more than 3,000 customers across more than 180 countries, representing roughly $4 billion in combined annual revenue. Their enterprise customers were the last to know. The proposed Verizon/BT joint venture raises an important question for enterprise customers with multinational operations: is this proposed JV simply a new international platform, or is it a signal that Verizon is effectively exiting parts of the enterprise network market?  The Verizon/BT JV will undoubtedly create real confusion around supplier competition, account ownership, contracting entities, pricing leverage, service accountability, and long-term network strategy.  And of course, tie-ups between two competing network providers have a notable history of failure. In this 14-minute episode of Staying Connected, Tony Mangino is joined by TC2's Brent Knight and Ben Fox to discuss what the Verizon/BT joint venture means for multinational enterprise customers, why Verizon's commitment to the enterprise-market is a question worth asking and how enterprise customers can protect their sourcing strategy, contract posture, pricing position and operational control during the transition window.

Bloomberg reported that Verizon and BT plan a joint venture combining their international enterprise units. The move would consolidate managed network services across multiple regions and could offer single-contract models for multinational customers. Regulatory approvals will likely be required in the United Kingdom, the United States, and other jurisdictions, with reviews focused on competition, security, and data residency. Integration will involve aligning OSS and BSS systems, product catalogs, and support workflows, creating potential migration risk. Customers should audit contracts, confirm assignment and SLA terms, and evaluate secondary providers for critical routes. Partners and vendors should prepare for centralized procurement and larger, consolidated bids for networking and cloud connectivity solutions.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

We hebben het over Kevin Warsh, kersverse baas van de Fed. Op zijn eerste persconferentie maakte hij duidelijk dat het anders moet. De afgelopen vijf jaar heeft de Amerikaanse centrale bank de doelstelling niet gehaald en dat gaat hij nu anders doen. De Fed gaat op de schop. Er komen vijf werkgroepen die onderzoek wat er moet veranderen. Eén ding is al gelijk aangepast: de schriftelijk verklaring. Die is drastisch ingekort. Alleen doet hij niet wat hij (van president Trump) moet doen en dat is de rente verlagen. Sterker nog, die gaat dit jaar zo goed als zeker omhoog. Deze aflevering kijken we wat dit alles betekent voor jou en of hij jou óók teleurstelt. Tim Cook komt ook voorbij. De vertrekkend ceo van Apple kwam met slecht nieuws voor klanten. De prijzen moeten omhoog, want de inkoop van chips is veel te duur geworden. Opvallend, want Apple was een van de laatste technologiebedrijven die het tekort aan geheugenchips juist de baas bleef. We hebben het ook over de beleggersdag van Besi. Daar is voor ons Jordy Beuving van De Aandeelhouder. Hij vertelt waarom Besi zijn omzet- en winstdoel flink verhoogt en vertelt meer over de orders voor hun paradepaardje. Verder ook aandacht voor Box 3, de Iran-deal en Maserati.

Government contract joint ventures and teaming agreements can unlock multi-million dollar opportunities — but one compliance mistake can cost you your small business status before you ever perform a day of work. In this episode, govcon veteran David Rambhajan breaks down exactly how to structure partnerships the right way so you win bids, stay compliant, and never get blindsided by an affiliation ruling. Affiliation risk in prime-sub relationships — Learn why subcontracting too much work to a large business can trigger an SBA affiliation finding that strips your small business designation on a live solicitation. Teaming agreements vs. prime-sub contracts — Understand the critical difference between an informal subcontract and a formal teaming agreement, and when a teaming agreement actually reduces your affiliation exposure with the government. Using teaming agreements to unlock bonding capacity — David reveals how a six-month-old small business used a teaming partner's indemnification to secure a multi-million dollar bond — and what the compliance letter requirement means for your bid protest strategy. Joint venture structure and the 51% ownership rule — Discover why a large business holding even 49% of your JV can disqualify it as a small business — and the one exception under the SBA Mentor-Protégé Program that changes everything. SDVOSB set-asides vs. veteran-owned set-asides — David clarifies a common misconception: current set-asides target service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, not all veteran-owned businesses, and what a pending legislative change could mean for your competition pool. EPISODE CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Introduction to govcon partnership rules and risks 0:30 - Welcome to the Federal Help Center podcast with Eric Coffie 1:00 - Affiliation risk when subcontracting to large businesses 2:05 - Self-performance requirements in construction vs services 2:45 - Why clear expectations prevent teaming relationship failures 3:14 - How teaming agreements differ from prime-sub contracts 4:05 - Real story of a six-month-old business winning a bonded contract 5:09 - Teaming agreements and bond indemnification compliance letters 7:35 - When teaming with large businesses reduces affiliation exposure 9:02 - Joint ventures as separate legal entities with tax IDs 9:44 - The 51% ownership rule and large business JV disqualification 10:16 - Mentor-protégé program and the billion dollar JV bid story 12:09 - SDVOSB set-aside rules and the veteran-owned business distinction 13:07 - Final compliance takeaway and community call to action   Mindy gives you the federal opportunities, agency signals, recompete intel, and pursuit briefs that tell you not just what contracts exist, but which ones to chase and how to win them.

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MD, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, preview their unofficial countdown of the sessions, themes, and abstracts they are most excited about heading into the 2026 European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) Annual Meeting in London, June 3–6, including:  Obesity, Weight Management, and Psoriatic Arthritis Sessions Personalized Medicine and Biomarkers in RMDs Sessions Fatigue and Quality of Life in Connective Tissue Disease Session Mitochondrial DNA and Interferon: Upstream Drivers of Autoimmunity Session Artificial Intelligence and Pattern Recognition in Rheumatology Sessions Axial Imaging in Axial Spondyloarthritis Session Head-to-Head Superiority Trials in RA and PsA Sessions CAR-T and CAR-NK Therapies: Efficacy, Limits, and What Comes Next Sessions

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MD, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, are joined by guest Lucy Carter, MBBS, PhD, a consultant rheumatologist at Newcastle upon Tyne NHS Foundation Trust and honorary clinical senior lecturer at Newcastle University, to examine nearly 2 decades of B cell–targeted therapy in rheumatic disease — a story that has proven considerably more complicated than its early promise suggested.Carter, Arnold, and Buss trace the mixed legacy of rituximab in lupus and Sjögren disease and examining how incomplete B cell depletion, BAFF-driven rebound, and trial design limitations may have contributed to disappointing early results. The discussion then turns to newer approaches such as obinutuzumab, whose positive REGENCY and ALLEGORY trial data in lupus nephritis and systemic lupus erythematosus suggest that deeper, more durable B cell depletion may improve outcomes, while emerging CAR-T data raise broader questions about the future role of intensive immune reprogramming in autoimmune disease.

In the second part of this Joint Ventures episode on B cell therapies in rheumatic disease, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, and Rihards Buss, MD, return with guest Lucy Carter, MBBS, PhD, to move beyond the question of how to deplete B cells and toward the more conceptually challenging problem of what happens after depletion — and whether ianalumab's dual mechanism of action represents the most rational answer yet developed.The episode examines the biologic rationale behind combining rituximab with belimumab, reviews the landmark NEPTUNUS Sjögren disease trials in which ianalumab became the first targeted therapy to meet a phase 3 primary endpoint in the disease, and discusses how emerging therapies may ultimately reshape treatment selection, steroid reduction strategies, and long-term management of autoimmune conditions including Sjögren disease and systemic lupus erythematosus.

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MD, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, turn from osteoarthritis to the inflammatory arthritides — examining what early data in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and lupus can and cannot yet tell us about the role of GLP-1 receptor agonists in disease modification.“Everyone is talking about [GLP-1 RAs] and what it can do for our patients. Much more evidence is needed to be much more better understanding about increasing effects beyond weight loss is needed. And I think that evidence will be just coming out very rapidly, year by year… but I think this is not the case where we're going to wait for strong evidence, good quality RCT data before we start to start to use them,” Buss said.

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MD, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, examine the growing evidence for GLP-1 receptor agonists in rheumatological disease — drugs originally developed for glycemic control that are now drawing serious attention as potential immunomodulators with implications across the specialty.The conversation opens by tracing the arc of GLP-1 agonist development, from exenatide's approval in 2005 through to semaglutide's landmark cardiovascular and renal data in the SELECT1 and FLOW2 trials, before turning to the question now quietly circulating in rheumatology clinics: are these drugs doing something beyond shifting weight?

In this episode of Joint Ventures, hosts Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the University of Leeds, and Rihards Buss, MBBS, a consultant rheumatologist at Freeman Hospital, dive into 2 emerging therapeutic strategies with the potential to reshape care for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA): Fc receptor blockade with nipocalimab and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibition with deucravacitinib, distinct pathways united by a shared goal of greater precision in immune modulation.

Introducing Joint Ventures — a new podcast exploring advances in rheumatologic disease and what they mean for real-world practice. Hosted by RheumatologyLive, the series is led by Jack Arnold, MBBS, PhD, and Rihards Buss, MBBS, 2 United Kingdom-based rheumatologists united by a shared interest in translating rapidly evolving science into thoughtful, patient-centered care.Joint Ventures is designed for rheumatologists and clinicians managing immune-mediated disease who are navigating an increasingly complex therapeutic landscape. Each episode will examine emerging evidence, new mechanisms of action, and shifting paradigms in rheumatology, with a focus on how these developments intersect with clinical reasoning, uncertainty, and long-term patient management.Arnold is an academic clinical lecturer in rheumatology at the Leeds Institute of Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Medicine in University of Leeds, with research interests spanning systemic lupus erythematosus, clinical trials, and the application of deep learning in medicine. Buss is a consultant rheumatologist specializing in psoriatic arthritis at Newcastle's Freeman Hospital, with a particular focus on integrating new data into day-to-day clinical decision-making. 

French-Italian auto group Stellantis and China's Dongfeng have announced a plan to launch a joint venture based in Europe, with Stellantis having a 51 percent controlling stake. The deal would see Dongfeng's new electric models assembled at Stellantis's plant in western France to comply with the EU's new "Made in Europe" rule that requires 70 percent of EV content to be made locally. Also in the segment: one man in the US has turned a broken pink Barbie car into a solution to combat soaring fuel prices. 

In this throwback episode from 2023 Alan revisits a long-standing "chip on his shoulder": the persistent and often unscientific demand for antibiotic premedication in joint replacement patients. Sparked by his own wife's hip surgery, Alan dives into the disconnect between evidence-based ADA/AAOS guidelines and the "premedicate for life" culture maintained by many orthopedic surgeons. With his signature wit and candid frustration, he explores the risks of antibiotic resistance, the myth of dental-induced bacteremia, and the awkward "middle man" position patients are forced into when dental and surgical philosophies collide.

The Hilarious and Sexy New Film Will Be Coming to Theaters April 24! Winner of the Special Jury Prize at Sundance, TWO WOMEN is an irrepressible comedy about two mothers who refuse to settle for stagnant lives and instead pursue the joy they need to feel alive and fulfilled.   When neighbors Violette (Laurence Leboeuf) and Florence (Karine Gonthier-Hyndman) bond over the ennui of parenthood, they realize that the solution to reviving their joie de vivre may be in listening to their libidos. As the two start finding sex in unexpected places, they examine the larger unfulfilled needs that brought them to their current moment and choose to pursue a life of joy over compromise.   Director Chloé Robichaud captures the Montreal winter in sumptuous 35mm film; Screenwriter Catherine Léger has adapted her own stage play, itself an update of the 1970 Quebecoise classic Two Women in Gold. Sophie Nélisse, Juliette Gariépy, Mani Soleymanlou, and Félix Moati complete a stellar ensemble cast.   Wonderfully layered, empathetic, sexy, and fun, TWO WOMEN urges us to consider that life is not a straight line and to remember that there are infinite kinds of pleasure we can experience together if we simply allow ourselves to give in.   Connect: The Film and Director The Film: @twowomenmovie Director (Chloé Robichaud): @chloerobish The Stars Laurence Leboeuf (Violette): @lorleb Karine Gonthier-Hyndman (Florence): @pennybobette The Distribution Team Joint Venture: @jointventurefilm   About Joint Venture Joint Venture is an independent film studio that distributes each project by building coalitions with filmmakers, audiences, and partners across sectors.

Trump declares victory after a last-minute ceasefire forces Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, easing global oil disruptions and halting imminent U.S. strikes. With hundreds of ships still backed up, Trump proposes a controversial U.S.–Iran "joint venture" to secure the waterway and potentially manage transit operations together. As negotiations continue during the temporary truce, questions remain about whether this deal signals a true end to the conflict or just a pause before the next phase.   Become A Member http://youtube.com/timcastnews/join The Green Room - https://rumble.com/playlists/aa56qw_g-j0 BUY CAST BREW COFFEE TO FIGHT BACK - https://castbrew.com/ Join The Discord Server - https://timcast.com/join-us/ Hang Out With Tim Pool & Crew LIVE At - http://Youtube.com/TimcastIRL
