The ASX opened down, and has stayed down all day (-0.7%). Energy is the clear winner of the major sectors (+1.32%) thanks to a modest rise in oil overnight and a positive update from WDS (+3.5%). Gold stocks opened sharply lower but mostly held the line for the remainder of the day. No doubt gold will be watched closely from here to see if the correction continues. One item of interest today for lithium is PLS CEO Dale Henderson telling Bloomberg that power storage is helping to offset lower EV sales in the US. He said the energy is growing “leaps and bounds”. The sector should keep growing each year for the next decade.  That may have helped PLS finish flat today despite lithium shares overseas down overnight. LTR was down -1.4%. Tech shares got a strong bid with XRO (+1.75%), CPU (+0.43%) and XYZ (2.2%) up and about plus smaller names even better NXL (+3.7%) and WBT (+18.8%).

Indianapolis Rowing Center was like lots of other clubs, running several small Learn to Row sessions each year but struggling with retention. Then IRC rower, coach, and brand new Board member Lisa Stickley proposed something big. Really big. She wanted to develop a new type of introduction to rowing program that would get 120 registrants in the boathouse door and on the water all within the month of July. With the support of the Board and club membership, IRC's First Strokes program moved from big idea, to social media marketing campaign, to eight sessions a week for four weeks, plus three big social events. As of today, the retention rate is 40%. Find out from Lisa how she made it happen and how your club can think outside the box to truly use LTR to grow membership and create community connections. .

Managing frame in an LTR is very challenging, and a very important skill to master. In todays show we dive down the rabbit hole of frame, and power in relationships

On June 7, 2025, Oar the Rainbow will be one of just five teams losing sight of shore for an unsupported, human-powered, 2800-mile row from Monterey, CA to Kauai, HI. The team, – including the first out transgender person to row across the Pacific – are about two years into their planning and training.  Members Taylan Stulting, Julie Warren, and Courtney Farber have inclusion, joy, and kindness at the heart of the team, with the belief that representation in sports matters, while pushing the limits of endurance. We talk about the love of rowing, having something to prove, what to expect out there, and fundraising for Athlete Ally and Doctors Without Borders. Stick around for a bonus Q&A with ocean rower, author, and adventurer Jordan Hanssen.   QUICK LOOK 00:00 - Podcast Series Introduction 01:45 - Episode Intro: Rachel and Tara's take on taking on an ocean 08:57 - The Huddle: A quick get to know you  10:39 - Rowing week on a scale of 1-10 11:26 - The Hot Seat Q&A 13:58 - Rowing origin stories: For Courtney the stars aligned in her 30s; Julie got handed a flier as a college freshman; Taylan sought out a college LTR program 19:20 - Most recent training/practical session together 21:09 - The dream of rowing an ocean 26:05 - How Oar the Rainbow came to be 28:40 - Commitment and family sacrifices 30:30 - About the World's Toughest Row 31:20 - The boat named Emma 32:30 - Training 33:37 - Extrapolating personal skills to make the teamwork work 38:03 - The “why”  42:42 - Charities and support 44:14 - Intro to Q&A with ocean rower, author, and adventurer Jordan Hanssen 44:55 -  What is so exciting about rowing on the ocean?  45:56 -  What piece of equipment or personal gear do you wish that you had with you?  48:25 -  How did you feel hitting the halfway point and in the days following that milestone?  49:44 -  What was the transition back to life on land like for you?  51:38 -  How to plan for something unexpected? 53:10 -  Lovely nuggets 56:10 - Steady State Network news and notes .

Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, it's Part 2 of our conversation with dating coach and podcast host Sadie Marie as we ask the question, is there life after love? And hell yah there is!  In this conversation, we talk about dating without a long-term relationship in mind, including how to build a roster. We also cover flirting strategies, how to meet singles in real life, and the experience of dating younger men—what works, what doesn't, and what to keep in mind. Or maybe after a LTR you're not feeling interested in anyone? We got you there, we'll go into dating breaks, and how to stay hopeful in dating even when it feels like nothing is working.  Finally, we come full circle back to the topic of emotional availability and we explore the powerful shift of decentering romantic love, so you can create a fulfilling life that doesn't revolve solely around relationships.

Three innovations to improve your learn to row classes and prevent drop-outs. Time to get your club organised for LTR 2025. What's new that you could do this year? Timestamps 00:45 Innovations in adult learn to row Clubs do these to grow their membership. New joiners are an investment in time and effort - it takes time before that pays off. Around one third of all masters rowers started to row as adults. There are two pathways into masters rowing - people who started in their youth and then come back later in life, and those who start as adult beginners. 02:00 How to run a good adult learn to row class. Buy the book Masters Rowing by Nolte & Fritsch - the chapter on how to structure and teach LTR is really good. Masters Rowing – Training for fitness, technique and competition – Volker Nolte & Wolfgang Fritsch https://amzn.to/3sYSXJB 03:00 First Lesson Experience The experience of your first lesson is very important to the success of the program. Can paperwork be done ahead of time? Rebecca starts with an interior tour of the boathouse, the oars, the boat types, the changing rooms. Handling the oars - how to hold the oar handle. How to put the oars on the dock, positioning so nobody trips. How to do the sculling crossover. Parts of the boat - how to open an oarlock, the button position, how to adjust the foot stretcher. Carrying the boat, getting in and out of the boat safely. 06:00 They start rowing. We don't give instruction about how to row in the first lesson. They do some confidence drills and then start rowing - working it out for themselves. This may sound like they've being pushed quickly into doing something they haven't been told how to do. This method serves a purpose - they work stuff out for themselves - take personal control. There is a lot of rest and waiting while others row in the first lesson. Short periods of rowing then stopping and talking or watching - a learning from Tony Buzan (the Mind Mapping man). 08:00 Involve the club You need volunteers to help, give support and be alongside the beginners. Ask those who did the prior learn to row class to be the helpers - they know enough. It helps the new beginners to see how quickly they'll learn. Invite them to coffee after the lesson. 09:40 Pricing a learn to row class Don't be afraid to charge for what you deliver. Do check prices of courses in nearby clubs. You do not have to be the cheapest class. You can offer payment plans. 11:00 Innovations in adult learn to row Bingo game - Michael Merwin gives a card to all participants - they have to do a lot of different things during the course. As they complete each cell, they check it off and a line of 4 wins a prize. Flexibility - teach in different types of boat Pontoon floats - enable a lot of different configurations of experienced and novice athletes. Each lesson, move people one seat down the boat. When you get to bow, rotate into the cox seat next lesson. Crew Bingo card https://fastermastersrowing.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/bingo.png Want easy live streams like this?

In the case of United States v. Combs (24-cr-542), Sean Combs' legal team submitted a 20-minute video under seal to support his renewed bail application (Dkt. 60) and its reply (Dkt. 80). This submission was made in compliance with the court's Protective Order (Dkt. 81) and is intended to provide evidence outlined in the declaration by Teny Geragos (Ex. D). The video, shared with both the court and the government, is a critical element of Combs' defense, addressing issues central to his bail request..In a letter to Judge Subramanian regarding United States v. Sean Combs (24 Cr. 542), the Government addressed the upcoming November 22, 2024, hearing on Combs' renewed bail motion. The letter responds to the Court's inquiry about the applicability of the bail package approved in United States v. Jeffries (24 Cr. 423). The Government argues that the circumstances in the Jeffries case are not comparable to those in Combs' case and do not support his bail application, emphasizing distinctions that render the Jeffries precedent irrelevant.Finally,In a letter to Judge Subramanian regarding United States v. Combs (24-cr-542), Sean Combs' legal team submitted additional support for his Renewed Motion for Bond (Dkt. 60). Included was an exhibit containing a letter from the government, received late the previous evening, in response to targeted Brady requests.
