Vadba med menstruacijo je lahko zelo koristna, vendar je v prvi vrsti pomembno, da prisluhnemo svojemu telesu, bo zatrdila Kaja. In na drugi strani se bo oglasila Jasmina, ki ve, da je to obdobje naravnega detoksa, razlog, da ženske živijo dlje. Kaj bo prevagalo? Oglejte si posnetek in izvedeli boste vse o tem kaj početi in kaj ne početi v tem obdobju. Je pa to idealen čas za samonegovanje in globoko relaksacijo ... kako pa to dosežete in kaj izberete, pa prapuščamo vam. Kakšne pa so lahko koristi umirjene vadbe med menstruacijo?

Povečuje raven energije – Kljub utrujenosti lahko lahkotna vadba pomaga premagati občutek izčrpanosti.

This week, we chat with Andrew from Legacies LARP about terrorizing the town as a fae abductor, depicting a demonic plague, and writing story for a long-running live-action role-playing game. This is a conversation about a very different type of storytelling experience in a game that's been running continuously for decades where each plot team only controls the narrative for six months at a time. (Also, if you're wondering, the town was called Fortnight long before the game Fortnite even existed.)Thanks to Legacies LARP for making this interview possible! We're talking about Legacies LARP this week because we really enjoyed learning about Gothic LARP with Rex last season. In addition to Legacies and Gothic, Andrew also mentions Shadow Accord and Dystopia Rising. This week's intro comes from Kaji, who's a player in Legacies LARP! We hope the demonic plague didn't get him. Go check out his Twitch channel.If you like the music on the show, go check out more of Reilly's music.

He's one of the biggest stars in the seiyuu industry. He has a repertoire that many envy. He's at the forefront when it comes to innovating and pushing forward what seiyuu can do. But not everything was the success and recognition Yuki Kaji now experiences. Early on he struggled to get roles, had tough competition within his agency, and it was hard for him. So in this episode, let's talk a bit about those struggles and how he overcame those, inspiring the newest generations of seiyuu.

The horror persists but so does Kaji! As the Reds advance and the Japanese Army begins to sacrifice itself on the altar of glorious death in battle, Kaji knows that this not the end for him. Somewhere, his beloved wife Michiko is waiting, the one desperate hope left as Kaji plows south. His humanist instincts remain, but Kaji is no longer the naive idealist that stepped out of school and into a labour camp. Hardened by reality and pragmatism, he still tries to save lives on his long, hard journey towards home. Next week: a bit of a mood break as we veer off the list for a short while. Questions?

It's an underlying skill that we really have to harness in all of our college, university, and high school programs. It's fundamental. We seem to teach people how to problem solve, but this is table stakes. In order to ever get AI right, we've got to solve the data challenges.”“There's no question on whether business value and how to measure AI's return on investment (ROI) is always top of mind in my discussions with executives. But what they really want to know is if their existing ROI methods are sufficient or not. What are the new metrics that they need to put in place to validate AI and its sustainability?”“We're not at the high-growth stage of AI innovation. We're in the early experimentation stage. We don't have international guardrails. All of these systems are going to take around 20-years to put in place. It takes six years to put a new university curriculum in place.

Budete počuť: ako sa snaží PDCS pomáhať organizáciám zvládať konfliktné situácie, čo to znamená, že PDCS chce zachovať objektivitu a kde už je hranica, za ktorou ako organizácia vyjadria svoj hodnotový postoj, na čo nezabudnúť pri osobných konfliktoch, ako Kaja hodnotí rôzne typy vyjadrení po atentáte na Róberta Fica.

Some look at AI as an opportunity to clone their favorite voice actor's voice, some Japanese voice actors worry about those possibilities and how dangerous it is for the voice acting industry. At the same time, some game studios have started using AI voices for NPCs instead of hiring professional voice actors. While all of this is happening, in 2024, superstar seiyuu and entrepreneur Yuki Kaji has created and launched his own synth voice (AI) to, potentially, safeguard his career as a voice actor. This is the 1st of 2 features on AI and its influence in the voice acting industry in Japan - specifically. Did you enjoy this episode?

Our book this episode is Butter, by Asako Yuzuki (translated by Polly Barton). And it sparked a very ‘alive' conversation on appetites, cake boundaries and whether a bowl of rice, butter and soy sauce can truly awaken an appetite for life.As always, you don't have to have read the book to follow along. Although, we both did love it and would recommend you do! It's a very layered, clever and thought provoking read.Here's the publisher's synopsis;Gourmet cook Manako Kajii sits in Tokyo Detention Centre convicted of the serial murders of lonely businessmen, who she is said to have seduced with her delicious home cooking. The case has captured the nation's imagination but Kajii refuses to speak with the press, entertaining no visitors. That is, until journalist Rika Machida writes a letter asking for her recipe for beef stew and Kajii can't resist writing back.Rika, the only woman in her news office, works late each night, rarely cooking more than ramen. As the visits unfold between her and the steely Kajii, they are closer to a masterclass in food than journalistic research. Rika hopes this gastronomic exchange will help her soften Kajii but it seems that she might be the one changing. With each meal she eats, something is awakening in her body, might she and Kaji have more in common than she once thought?Inspired by the real case of the convicted con woman and serial killer, "The Konkatsu Killer", Asako Yuzuki's Butter is a vivid, unsettling exploration of misogyny, obsession, romance and the transgressive pleasures of food in Japan.Show notes with links, recipes, and more will be sent to our subscribers separately.Thank you. Happy listening! And please try the butter and rice dish as per Kajii's instructions. It really is excellent!Thank you to our wonderful producer, Kristy Reading, for putting this and every episode together so beautifully.We acknowledge that the land on which we work and live is the traditional land of the Wiradjuri Nation (Sophie) and the Gadigal of the Eora Nation (Germaine). We pay our respects to Elders past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations people.

Today we're discussing synthetic data - that is, data trained by AI and computer simulations, rather than gathered from the real world.Now, generating theoretical data is nothing new - we've been taking small samples of things and extrapolating from it for decades. However, with the advent of AI we don't necessarily just need to extrapolate. We can generate completely new, close-to-real data using AI.But why? And why does it matter? To explain we're joined by Chief Technology Officer for AI at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Matt Armstrong-BarnesThis is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

We pay respects to Aaron Bushnell, the 25-year-old Air Force serviceman who self-immolated outside the Embassy of Israel in Washington, D.C. in an act of protest against the genocide in Gaza. We also talk about the allegations against Diddy, the rumors of him having a sexual relationship with Meek Mill, and Mill's denial against those claims. Correction: Sean calls Kaji from Neon Genesis Evangelion "Shinji's teacher" when he's actually a NERV special instructor.

Was wäre, wenn euch Atze & Leon heute den Geheimtrick erzählen, wie ihr eure Gefühle an- und wieder ausschalten könnt? Heute geht es darum, wie die verschiedenen Ebenen eures Lebens, wie euer Körper, eure aktuelle Situation und eure Bewertung dessen, ein Rezept für eure Emotionen ergeben. Und ein Rezept ergibt ein Gericht, wo es auf den genauen Mix der Zutaten ankommt, welches sich mit der Hinzunahme von Zutaten verändert und welches vielleicht auch ganz unterschiedlich schmeckt, je nachdem, wie es serviert wird. Das Gute: Wenn wir das Rezept für eine Emotion kennen, können wir sie in uns zum Kochen bringen, oder vom Herd nehmen. Heute geht es viel ums Kochen und noch mehr um Emotionen und vor allem: Es wird spannend!

Doug Pagitt sits down with pastor and activist Rev. Kaji Douša to talk about being profiled and retaliated against by U.S. Border Patrol and the Department of Homeland Security for providing aid to migrants along the US/Mexico border.

She preaches nearly every Sunday at The Park and is invited as a keynote speaker across the country. Her often fiery media appearances reflect her deep thinking, faithful perspective and quick wit.

Do you like puzzles? If you do, you're far from alone. An estimated 50 million people do crosswords every day and more than 450 million Rubik's Cubes have been sold. People like puzzles. In his new book, today's guest, A.J. Jacobs, quotes Maki Kaji—the late godfather of Sudoku, who said puzzles are a journey, articulated with just two punctuation marks: ? → ! “Kaji said the key is to embrace the middle part, the arrow, the journey. Don't be obsessed with endings and perfection.” Today, we're talking about that arrow, the journeys we find ourselves on, and the different ways puzzles can come up in our lives. More About A.J.: A.J. Jacobs is an author, journalist, lecturer, and human guinea pig. He has written four New York Times bestsellers that combine memoir, science, humor, and a dash of self-help. Today we're talking about his latest book, The Puzzler: One Man's Quest to Solve the Most Baffling Puzzles Ever, from Crosswords to Jigsaws to the Meaning of Life.
