Podcasts about Liu

En este episodio, profundizamos en uno de los fenómenos más devastadores pero menos comprendidos en neurorrehabilitación: la denervación muscular tras una lesión medular. A través de una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura científica y de la experiencia clínica, abordamos qué ocurre realmente con los músculos que han perdido su inervación, cómo se transforman con el tiempo y qué posibilidades tenemos para intervenir. Hablamos sobre neurofisiología, degeneración axonal, fases de la denervación, y cómo la estimulación eléctrica —especialmente con pulsos largos— puede modificar el curso degenerativo incluso años después de la lesión. Exploramos también el Proyecto RISE, los protocolos clínicos actuales y las implicaciones terapéuticas reales de aplicar electroestimulación en músculos completamente denervados. Si trabajas en neurorrehabilitación o te interesa la ciencia aplicada a la recuperación funcional, este episodio es para ti. Referencias del episodio: 1. Alberty, M., Mayr, W., & Bersch, I. (2023).

I always say that this Thursday to Sunday run of the conference tournaments and the Selection Show is the best four-day stretch of every lacrosse season. Teams have spent the last year working toward this, only the best teams are playing, every game is meaningful and the familiarity of playing conference rivals a second time begs for potential drama. May Madness is finally here. Let's revel in it. As always, D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you pumped up for all the games, and we'll preview the semifinal round in every single conference. We'll also talk about a few preseason Top 20 teams that didn't come close to matching the high expectations, and what comes next for those programs. In addition, we'll talk about the NCAA's all-time goal scorer, CJ Kirst, hotel front desks, the Ann Arbor lunch scene, predetermined sites hosting without the home team and much, much more. This year, Inside Lacrosse is proud to partner with the NCAA to offer you, our loyal listeners, $5 off all single-day ticket options (men and women) by using the code ILPOD at checkout. So head to NCAA.com/LaxTickets and enter ILPOD at checkout to purchase your tickets.

Think sleep is just for rest and recovery? Think again! In this juicy and science-backed episode of The Keto Vegan, I dive into the surprisingly powerful link between sleep and weight loss. Whether you're keto, vegan, both (hello!), or just sleep-deprived and snack-happy — this one's for you. You'll learn why poor sleep messes with your hormones, slows your metabolism, spikes your cravings, and makes you store fat even if you're smashing your macros. Plus, I'm sharing practical, real-life tips on how to reset your sleep routine — without going all monk-like. Perfect if you're ready to stop blaming peanut butter and start blaming your dodgy sleep schedule.

After the “execution-style” murder of Taoyuan Magistrate Liu Pang-yu and half a dozen others at Liu's official residence in November 1996 by assassins deemed connected to the underworld, Taiwan's authorities began getting serious about trying to rid its ranks of those with ties to organized crime – but it's no easy task. A report from that same year found that at least a third of elected officials were part of a system termed “Black Gold,” or put simply: gangsters in government. Links, pics and more at formosafiles.com

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 78-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 19,389 on turnover of 5-billion N-T. The market lost ground again on Wednesday - tumbling nearly 400-points - as the trade war between the United States and China escalated after Washington imposed a fresh round of export controls on Nvidia and A-M-D selling to Chinese buyers. NDC to focus on silicon photonics, build new economic shield National Development Council Minister Paul Liu says the government plans to prioritize the development of silicon photonics. According to Liu, that will be carried out by taking advantage of the island's strength in the semiconductor and artificial intelligence industries to build another shield to protect the local economy. The N-D-C head says over the longer term, government is determined to focus on potential segments as silicon photonics to boost its competitive edge (競爭優勢) and take a larger share of the global market. In addition to silicon photonics, Liu says the government has also listed quantum and autonomous robot development as additional potential economic shields. US congressional group visits Taiwan to meet with President Lai Ching-te A U-S Congressional delegation is visiting Taiwan this week. The delegation is being led by U-S Senator Pete Ricketts, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's Subcommittee on East Asia, and is slated to meet with President Lai Ching-te and other top government officials. The bipartisan delegation includes Senators Chris Coons and Ted Budd. The American Institute in Taiwan says the talks will focus on bilateral relations, regional security, trade and investment, and other issues of mutual (共同的) interest. NKorea Threatens Retaliation After US Bombers Fly Over South North Korea has threatened retaliation after the U.S. flew long-range bombers over South Korea during training with its forces. The U.S. flew the B-1B bombers Tuesday during an aerial drill that Seoul said was meant to show the two countries' deterrence (威懾) capability. North Korea views such drills as an invasion rehearsal and is particularly sensitive to the U.S. mobilization of strategic assets such as long-range bombers, aircraft carriers and nuclear-powered submarines. North Korea's Defense Ministry was quoted as saying the U.S. action would inevitably hurt U.S. security and North Korea “will deter by dint of powerful force" the U.S. aggression. North Korea often test-launches missiles in response to U.S. flyovers of B-1B bombers. US judge threatens contempt inquiry for Trump administration over deportations A US judge has threatened to start criminal contempt proceedings against the Trump administration for defying (違抗) his order to stop the deportation of more than 200 migrants to El Salvador. Nick Harper reports from Washington. Bolide Seen Over Mexico A bright object, initially appearing to be a meteorite, lit up the skies over Mexico's capital at 3am local time. Videos of a ball of fire shooting over the country and dissolving in a burst of light over Mexico City quickly became the fuel for memes circulating on social media. But scientists were quick to note that the object was a bolide (火流星). Bolides, defined by NASA as fireballs, are exceptionally bright meteors that are spectacular enough to be seen over a very wide area. That was the I.C.R.T.

Is it okay to use large language models in the research process? For what task, exactly, and to automate the task or to augment the researcher? In this episode, we try to explore whether and how LLMs could be used in five aspects of the research process - for paper writing, reviewing, data analysis, as a subject of research, or as a surrogate for research subjects. We also discuss whether they should be used at all, and what some long-term consequences could be of such a choice, and we develop a number of heuristic rules to help researcher make decisions about using LLMs for research.

Taiwan's government recently deported Liu Zhenya, a Chinese national who goes by “Yaya in Taiwan” on social media. It's after Liu posted comments on Douyin — the Chinese version of TikTok — that Taiwan's government described as threats to national security. Since then Taiwan has deported two other “mainland wives” (Chinese citizens with Taiwanese husbands) over similar concerns about their social media posts. It's also investigating several others. Benny Lu from BBC Chinese explains why Taiwan's government is concerned about what it calls “Chinese propaganda.” He also discusses how people in China and Taiwan have reacted to the deportations.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 0330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: William Lee Adams and Josh Jenkins Editor: Verity Wilde

China is accelerating the digitalization of ancient texts and boosting access to oracle bone script data, aiming to integrate cultural heritage with digital Chinese, officials said on Monday.中国正加速推进古籍数字化进程并扩大甲骨文数据开放，旨在将文化遗产保护与数字中文建设相结合。The Ministry of Education, the National Language Commission and the Cyberspace Administration of China issued a guideline to promote the digitalization of the Chinese language and characters. The focus is on developing national language resources and large-scale Chinese language models to support artificial intelligence.有关部门周一表示，教育部、国家语言文字工作委员会及中央网信办已联合发布《关于推进语言文字数字化的指导意见》，重点开发国家语言资源和大规模中文语言模型，为人工智能发展提供支持。The guideline aims to establish a national corpus and strategic language resources information database by 2027. By 2035, the country hopes it will have significantly expanded the presence of the Chinese language in global digital and generative AI scenarios.该指南提出，到2027年将建成国家语料库和战略语言资源信息库；至2035年，中文在全球数字化场景及生成式人工智能领域的应用影响力将显著提升。Liu Peijun, head of the Department of Language Information Management at the Ministry of Education, said the guideline calls for the digitalization of linguistic and cultural heritage, while promoting the construction of a national digital language and script museum.教育部语言文字信息管理司司长刘培俊表示，该指南要求推进语言文化遗产数字化，同时推动建设国家数字语言文字博物馆。It emphasizes advancing key technologies for ancient text digitalization, enhancing the accessibility of oracle bone script data and launching a multilingual digital education program to facilitate Chinese language learning globally, Liu said at a news conference.刘培俊在新闻发布会上强调，需重点突破古籍数字化关键技术，增强甲骨文数据的可获取性，并启动多语种数字教育计划，助力中文教育的全球化发展。A key aspect of this initiative is the development of large-scale linguistic data resources. The guideline outlines a plan to build a national corpus with extensive Chinese language datasets to support AI applications.该计划聚焦大规模语言数据资源建设。根据指南要求，将系统性构建国家语料库，整合海量中文数据集，为人工智能应用提供支撑。Among the pilot projects, Beijing Normal University has launched a large-scale Classical Chinese language model, an AI-driven initiative that sets a new benchmark in the field, Liu said.在试点项目中，北京师范大学已推出大规模文言文语言模型。刘培俊指出，这一人工智能驱动的举措为该领域树立了新的标杆。Kang Zhen, vice-president of BNU, said the university has developed a range of digital language databases, including a comprehensive holographic Chinese character database, a digital resource of the ancient Chinese dictionary Shuowen Jiezi, and repositories for ancient inscriptions and handwritten texts.北师大副校长康震表示，该校已构建包括全息汉字数据库、《说文解字》数字资源库，古代铭文及手写文本库在内的系列数字化语言数据库体系。These resources have played a crucial role in linguistic research and cultural preservation, Kang added.康震补充称，这些资源对语言研究和文化保护发挥了关键作用。The university's AI Taiyan, a Classical Chinese large language model trained with 1.8 billion parameters, has been designed for high-accuracy interpretation of ancient texts, supporting tasks such as word and phrase explanations, as well as classical-to-modern Chinese translation.该校研发的文言文大语言模型“AI太炎”基于18亿个参数训练出来的古汉语大型语言模型，专为高精度古籍解读而设计，可支持字词释义、文言文与现代汉语互译等任务。China is also spearheading the construction of a new national corpus to strengthen linguistic infrastructure in the AI era, said Wang Hui, deputy head of the Ministry of Education's Department of Language Application and Administration.教育部语言文字应用管理司副司长王晖表示，中国正带头建设新型国家语料库，以强化人工智能时代的语言基础设施。"Currently, most linguistic datasets remain limited to single-text formats and specific academic domains, lacking the scale and diversity required for AI applications," Wang said.王晖指出，当前语言数据资源仍主要集中于纯文本形态与特定学术研究领域，在数据规模与类型多样性方面存在明显不足，难以满足人工智能技术发展的多维需求。The department has begun planning for the corpus this year, seeking to launch two flagship databases, the Chinese civilization corpus for AI-assisted teaching and research, and the Chinese grand reading system corpus, Wang said.王晖表示，该司今年已启动语料库规划，计划推出两大核心数据库：一是支撑人工智能辅助教学研究的中华文明语料库，二是中华经典诵读系统语料库。oracle bone script甲骨文national corpus国家语料库the National Language Commission国家语言文字工作委员会strategic language resources information database战略语言资源信息库cultural heritage文化遗产ancient text digitalization古籍数字化benchmarkn.标杆spearheadv.带头;先锋

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 188-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 20,884 on turnover of 5.2-billion N-T. The market plunged more than 4-per cent on Monday on the back of investor concerns over U-S President Donald Trump's tariff threats that could become reality later this week. Monday's decline was the fourth steepest in terms of points in the Tai-Ex's history. Lai urges steps to stabilize Taiwan's economy as U.S. tariffs loom President Lai Ching-te has told Premier Cho Jung-tai to take steps to guarantee Taiwan's economic stability ahead of the expected imposition of "reciprocal tariffs" by the United States tomorrow. According to Presidential Office spokeswoman Karen Kuo, Lai made the call after hearing a presentation by Cho and members of the government's "Taiwan-U.S. trade work group." Kuo says the report included assessments (評估) of possible U-S tariff levels, modeling and estimates of their economic impact, and various potential response plans. The Cabinet's Office of Trade Negotiations has said it's been preparing for the tariffs and has already developed "multifaceted response plans." Interior Minister disbands standby rescue team to help Myanmar after Earthquake Interior Minister Liu Shyh-fang says the government has disbanded a rescue team that was on standby to travel to Myanmar following last Friday's magnitude 7.7 earthquake. According to Liu, her office made the decision after considering the continuing military conflict between Myanmar's military junta and local rebel groups over the past few days despite the strong earthquake. Liu told reporters the government would be unable to guarantee the safety of rescue team members once they arrive there and decided to take team members off standby (支援) and allow them to return to their regular operations in Taiwan. The rescue teams had been on standby since late Friday. Trump administration sanctions six Chinese officials over Hong Kong Crackdown The US has announced sanctions against six officials from China and Hong Kong over the Chinese government's crackdown on the city's pro-democracy movement. Washington and its allies have accused (指控) Beijing of not honoring a commitment to allow the formerly British territory a high degree of autonomy. Ira Spitzer reports. Lithuania 3 Missing Soldiers Bodies Recovered The U.S. Army says three of the soldiers who went missing in Lithuania have been found dead in an armored vehicle that was pulled from a swampy area in Lithuania early Monday. Another soldier is still missing. The bodies of the three were recovered after a massive (大量的) six-day effort by U.S., Polish and Lithuanian armed forces and authorities to dig the M88 Hercules vehicle out of a peat bog at the training ground. The Army says the soldiers were on a tactical training exercise when they and their vehicle were reported missing early Tuesday. Hundreds of Lithuanian and U.S. soldiers and rescuers had joined the search through the thick forests and swampy terrain. The Navy dive team is now searching the area using radar for the fourth soldier who is still missing. That was the I.C.R.T.

China's economic transition is gaining momentum as initiatives to boost consumption and drive innovation take center stage, which will inject greater certainty into the global economic landscape and provide broader space in which multinational companies can thrive, officials and executives said on Sunday.官员和高管于周日表示，随着促进消费和推动创新的举措成为焦点，中国经济转型势头强劲，这将为全球经济格局注入更大的确定性，并为跨国公司的发展提供更广阔的空间。China will combine robust policy support and the unleashing of market forces as it strives to achieve its economic growth target of around 5 percent this year, and policymakers are well prepared to introduce new incremental policies if necessary, Premier Li Qiang said in Beijing at the opening ceremony of the two-day China Development Forum 2025.李强总理在北京出席为期两天的中国发展高层论坛2025年开幕式时表示，中国将结合强有力的政策支持和市场力量的释放，努力实现今年5%左右的经济增长目标，政策制定者已做好在必要时推出新的增量政策的准备。The recent dynamism observed in China's consumer market, particularly in the film, winter sports and cultural tourism sectors, has pointed to the vast potential of the country's domestic economic circulation, Li said.李强指出，近期中国消费市场，尤其是电影、冬季运动和文化旅游领域的活力，展现了国内经济循环的巨大潜力。The theme of this year's forum is "Unleashing Development Momentum for Stable Growth of the Global Economy".今年论坛的主题是“释放发展动力，促进全球经济稳定增长”。Han Wenxiu, executive deputy director of the Office of the Central Commission for Financial and Economic Affairs, said that China is set to enhance people's consumption capacity, to ensure they have the financial means and the willingness to consume. These initiatives go beyond merely promoting economic growth and productivity, he said.中央财经委员会办公室常务副主任韩文秀表示，中国将提高居民消费能力，确保他们具备消费的经济条件和消费意愿。他说，这些举措不仅仅是促进经济增长和生产力提升。The initiatives also seek to increase the income of urban and rural residents, optimize the income distribution structure and elevate the share of household income in overall national income, Han said.他还表示，这些举措还将促进城乡居民收入的增加，优化收入分配结构，提高居民收入在国民总收入中的比重。Liu Shijin, former deputy director of the Development Research Center of the State Council, noted that "China faces a critical transition from an investment- and export-driven growth model to one fueled by innovation and consumption".国务院发展研究中心原副主任刘世锦指出，“中国正面临从投资和出口驱动型增长模式向创新和消费驱动型增长模式的关键转型”。"While structural imbalances in consumption present major challenges, resolving them could unlock growth potential comparable to that once provided by the real estate sector. This transformation would establish a foundation for sustained medium-speed economic growth, ensuring stability for China's economy in the years ahead," Liu said.“尽管消费结构失衡带来了重大挑战，但解决这些问题有望释放出与曾经房地产行业相当的增长潜力。这一转型将为持续的中速经济增长奠定基础，确保未来几年中国经济的稳定，”刘世锦表示。Premier Li stressed at the forum that the continuous emergence of technological advancements by Chinese tech startups such as DeepSeek and Unitree Robotics has showcased the country's immense capability for innovation and creativity.李强总理在论坛上强调，中国科技初创企业如DeepSeek、宇树科技等不断涌现的技术进步，展示了中国强大的创新创造能力。Minister of Finance Lan Fo'an, said that this year, China will scale up its funding to the sci-tech sector to expedite breakthroughs in critical and core technologies, stressing that a variety of policy tools will be used, including tax incentives and investment funds, to drive the "AI Plus" initiative and foster the growth of emerging and future industries.财政部部长兰福安表示，今年中国将加大对科技领域的资金投入，加速关键核心技术的突破，并强调将运用税收优惠和投资基金等多种政策工具，推动“人工智能+”行动，促进新兴产业和未来产业发展。Policymakers are committed to implementing measures that promote the development of the private sector, providing tangible assistance to enterprises, so that they can innovate and thrive, Lan said.兰福安表示，政策制定者致力于实施促进民营经济发展的措施，为企业提供切实帮助，使其能够创新发展。Executives attending the forum said that amid the growing uncertainties in the global economy marked by rising protectionism, it is more important than ever for nations to open up their markets and for businesses to pool their resources, in order to jointly tackle challenges and achieve shared growth.与会的高管们表示，在保护主义抬头、全球经济不确定性增加的背景下，各国开放市场、企业集中资源、共同应对挑战、实现共同增长比以往任何时候都更为重要。"We expect China to remain an engine for global growth in 2025 and across this decade," said Georges Elhedery, group chief executive of HSBC Holdings, adding that he is confident that in the long run, China will remain a thriving, sustainable economy at the heart of global trade and investment and at the forefront of innovation.汇丰控股集团首席执行官乔治·埃尔赫德里表示：“我们预计中国将在2025年及未来十年继续成为全球经济增长的引擎。”他相信，从长远来看，中国仍将是一个蓬勃发展的可持续经济体，位居全球贸易和投资的核心，并走在创新的前沿。Cristiano Amon, president and CEO of Qualcomm, told China Daily that he was excited by the innovation from DeepSeek, a Chinese artificial intelligence startup.高通总裁兼首席执行官克里斯蒂亚诺·阿蒙在接受《中国日报》采访时表示，他对中国人工智能初创公司DeepSeek的创新感到兴奋。"Our Chinese partners are very excited at embracing AI, and Qualcomm will expand our cooperation with them in the future," Amon said, adding that he believes technology will play an important role in spurring economic growth.阿蒙表示：“我们的中国合作伙伴对拥抱人工智能非常兴奋，高通未来将扩大与他们的合作。”他还表示，技术将在推动经济增长中发挥重要作用。Li Lecheng, Party secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that China has become the world's second-largest contributor to the global open-source community and the fastest-growing country in this field.工业和信息化部党委书记李乐成表示，中国已成为全球开源社区第二大贡献国，并且是该领域发展最快的国家。An open-source community is a collective of users, developers and contributors centered around a project in which the source code is freely available for modification and redistribution.开源社区是一个由用户、开发者和贡献者组成的集体，围绕一个项目展开，该项目的源代码可以自由修改和再分发。"We will support foreign-funded enterprises to establish research and development centers in China, and to further promote innovation and entrepreneurship in the country," Li Lecheng said.“我们将支持外资企业在华设立研发中心，进一步推动中国创新创业。”李乐成说道。More efforts will be made to facilitate the translation of scientific and technological progress into practical applications, he said, adding that the country also encourages foreign enterprises to participate in such initiatives.他还表示，中国将加大力度促进科技进步向实际应用转化，并鼓励外资企业参与此类举措。Pascal Soriot, CEO of AstraZeneca, said the strong signals from this year's Government Work Report, which reaffirmed China's commitment to science, innovation and opening-up, are highly encouraging.阿斯利康首席执行官帕斯卡尔·索里奥表示，今年政府工作报告再次重申了中国对科学、创新和开放的承诺，传递出的信号令人鼓舞。"We have been investing in science and innovation for many years in China, and we plan to invest even more in the future," Soriot said.索里奥表示：“我们多年来一直在中国投资科学和创新，我们计划在未来投入更多资金。”momentumn.动力unleashingv.释放dynamismn.活力optimizev.优化scale up按比例增加tangibleadj.切实的，有形的protectionismn.保护主义group chief executive首席执行官

Shoot us a Text.We're under 2 months away from the auto industry accelerator, ASOTU CON! You can get your tickets now at asotucon.com.Today we're talking about how tech giant Foxconn is getting ready to reveal new EV partnerships and speculate on who those could be. Plus, we cover affordability easing and In N Out's servant leadership mentality.Around 80 tornados were reported as a result of this past weekend's powerful storm system, leaving a trail of destruction across the Central and Eastern US. As the communities affected begin to rebuild, we know dealers will do what they do best—step up, lend a hand, and take care of their neighbors. At ASOTU, we're here to amplify their efforts, share their stories, and support in any way we can.Taiwanese tech giant Foxconn, better known as Apple's iPhone manufacturer, is reportedly closing in on EV partnerships with two Japanese companies. This news follows speculation about a possible alliance with Nissan or Honda, especially after their failed merger talks.Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. (Foxconn's official name) is expected to finalize the deals within two months, according to Chairman Young Liu.Liu did not confirm the companies but emphasized contract design and manufacturing services as part of the agreements.The March 11 appointment of Ivan Espinosa as Nissan's CEO could pave the way for new negotiations.Foxconn is making global EV plays, having already signed deals with ZF Group (axle systems), Stellantis (semiconductors), and Infineon (silicon carbide chips), and aiming to start North American production of its Model C crossover in late 2025 to counter rising U.S. tariffs.Liu: “We are not looking to acquire Nissan but are interested in working with them.”New-vehicle affordability improved in February, reaching its best level in over three years, according to the Cox Automotive/Moody's Analytics Vehicle Affordability Index.The average price of new vehicles fell by 1.3% for the month, improving affordability despite higher interest rates.Auto loan rates rose slightly to 10.16%, the highest in four months, but income growth (+3.5% YoY) helped offset this.Typical monthly car payments declined to $748, down 1.1% month-over-month and 1.3% YoY.It now takes 37.2 weeks of median income to buy a new vehicle, an improvement from 39.0 weeks a year ago.On the heels of being named the 8th Best Company to Work For, In-N-Out Burger CEO Lynsi Snyder credits her “servant leadership” approach as the driving force behind the company's success. The heiress views her employees as family and follows a leadership philosophy that prioritizes the employees over executive demands, or as we would say around here: “Love People More Than You Love Hamburgers”Servant leadership focuses on employee growth and well-being, a value Snyder says she inherited from her family.Her grandfather built the foundation with hard work and passion, while her father emphasized humility and quality.HeHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Targeting Anxiety to Improve Sleep Disturbance: A Randomized Clinical Trial of App-Based Mindfulness TrainingIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and colleagues discuss a novel randomized clinical trial examining the impact of the Unwinding Anxiety app on improving sleep disturbances caused by anxiety and worry. The study demonstrates that app-based mindfulness training significantly reduces worry-related sleep disturbances (WRSDs), with a 27% reduction after two months of use. By increasing emotional nonreactivity and breaking worry cycles, participants also experienced meaningful improvements in anxiety and overall sleep quality. The conversation highlights how app-based mindfulness interventions can provide scalable, accessible solutions for addressing widespread sleep and anxiety issues.Full Reference:Gao, M., Roy, A., Deluty, A., Sharkey, K.

In this episode of Superhero Ethics, hosts Matthew and Riki analyze the Netflix film Rebel Ridge, exploring its depiction of police corruption, less-lethal violence, civil asset forfeiture, and systemic racism through the lens of an action thriller. The discussion centers on protagonist Terry Richmond, a former Marine skilled in de-escalation techniques, as he navigates a corrupt police system to save his cousin and seek justice.How does civil asset forfeiture enable modern police corruption?The hosts examine how the film portrays this legal but questionable practice, where police can seize assets without proving criminal activity. They delve into how bureaucratic systems and legal loopholes are used to maintain systemic inequalities while appearing legitimate.What role does less-lethal violence play in the narrative?The episode explores how the protagonist's military background in de-escalation and less-lethal combat techniques serves both practical and thematic purposes, challenging typical action movie tropes while highlighting the reality of police violence against men of color.How does the film handle racial dynamics and allyship?The hosts analyze the complex portrayal of various characters, including Mr. Liu, a Chinese restaurant owner whose support of Terry leads to police harassment, examining how the film addresses intersectional aspects of racism and the model minority myth.Other topics covered:The film's approach to action sequences and their clarity compared to other action moviesDon Johnson's portrayal of a corrupt sheriff and the complex humanity of antagonist charactersThe role of drugs in the criminal justice system and how they're used to control and manipulateThe significance of bureaucratic systems in modern discriminationComparisons to director Jeremy Saulnier's previous work, Green RoomThe contrast between historical overt racism and modern systemic racismThe episode concludes with information about the podcast's new member section and upcoming discussions about superhero accountability, inviting listeners to participate in live recordings on YouTube. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.
