Colin Egglesfield recounts his professional journey from a self-described awkward adolescent to a high-profile fashion icon. He discusses the disparities in the industry, noting that male models are often treated as mere props compared to their higher-paid female counterparts, while sharing humorous anecdotes about wardrobe malfunctions and clumsy encounters with legendary designers. The conversation transitions from his early days with Calvin Klein and Versace to his current focus on acting and healthy living, where he emphasizes the importance of activity and nutrition over superficial fixes.

A good way to understand what's coming is to look at what happened in the past – so what can prehistoric polar ice tell us about future sea level rise?The highly uncertain behaviour of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets will dominate the future of sea level rise: land ice loss and ocean thermal expansion contribute equally. Our three guests, all of whom have received support from EU research and innovation funding, have been working on improving our understanding of these interactions.Eric Wolff is an honorary fellow at the British Antarctic Survey, who studies past climate and environment, mainly from Antarctic and Greenland ice cores. He is a Royal Society research professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Cambridge.Alessio Rovere, a professor in the Department of Environmental Sciences, Informatics and Statistics at Ca'Foscari University of Venice, is interested in palaeo climate and sea level changes.A director of research at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), Gaël Durand specialises in the modelling of polar ice sheets and the dynamics of coastal glaciers, with a focus on their impact on sea level rise.

What if you could think like the world's toughest human?Not admire it from a distance. Not read about it. Actually run the same internal patterns — the beliefs, the strategies, the way he processes doubt, discomfort, and the voice that says stop.That's what this episode is.One of the foundational ideas in NLP is that anything any human being can do can be elicited, modelled, and replicated. If you can identify how someone thinks at their best — the structure beneath the performance — you can hand that as a shortcut to anyone willing to step into it.Success leaves clues. Hypnosis is how we install them.In this first Modelling Excellence Monday session, Adam takes seven core principles from the philosophy of David Goggins — retired Navy SEAL, ultramarathon world record holder, and one of the most followed voices on mental toughness on the planet — and builds a deep hypnosis session around them so you can begin running those same patterns from the inside out.The Seven Principles Modelled in This Session:The 40% Rule — When your mind says stop, you're only 40% of the way thereThe Accountability Mirror — Brutal honesty with yourself, no excuses, no storiesCallous the Mind — Discomfort is not the enemy, it is the training groundThe Cookie Jar — Pull strength from everything you've already survivedTake Souls — Use doubt and disbelief as fuelBuild the Savage — Motivation is unreliable; discipline is the system that runs when it isn'tNever Finished — The quest for greatness is unendingHow to Use This EpisodeFind somewhere quiet, put your headphones in, and give yourself 45 minutes where you won't be disturbed. Lying down is fine. Eyes closed. Just follow Adam's voice.You don't need to believe it will work. You just need to show up.Who Should Adam Model Next?Modelling Excellence Monday is built on one idea: anyone in the world who achieves something extraordinary is running a set of internal patterns that can be identified, extracted, and handed to you.Who inspires you? Who do you watch and think — I don't just want to admire that, I want to understand how they think?Nominate your person — an athlete, entrepreneur, scientist, philosopher, artist, anyone — and Adam may build a future hypnosis session around them and their area of excellence.

The same dataset can look dramatically different depending on how it is visualised. Most charts are produced with good intent, but not all of them tell the full story, and some are designed not to. Knowing how to spot the difference could change how you read every market report you pick up. In this episode of Commercially Minded, Will Matthews, Knight Frank's Head of Commercial Insight, is joined by Seb Jones, Senior Analyst in Knight Frank's Modelling and Intelligence team, to examine how data visualisation shapes the conclusions that property professionals reach. They explore everything from innocent design failures that accidentally misdirect, to techniques that can steer readers towards conclusions the data does not support. If you want to know how to spot the signs that a chart is misleading you, and what questions to ask before you form a view, this is the episode to listen to.For more insights like this, subscribe to ⁠⁠Will's newsletter⁠⁠ for his weekly take on commercial real estate markets.Produced by ⁠⁠Rethink Audio⁠⁠.

Drew Meredith and James O'Reilly on why AI-built retirement modelling routinely gets the numbers dangerously wrong, plus the end-of-financial-year traps and condition-of-release tricks every Australian retiree should know before June 30. In this Australian Retirement Podcast episode, your hosts Drew Meredith, from Wattle Partners, and James O'Reilly, from Northeast Wealth, work through five high-stakes mistakes they keep seeing in DIY retirement plans — from AI tools that forget income tax and the age pension, to notice-of-intent timing errors that quietly delete tax deductions worth tens of thousands. They also unpack a clever (and entirely legal) condition-of-release strategy involving the Census, plus how to think about gifting an adult child a house deposit without blowing up your own retirement. Topics covered - Why AI-built and industry-fund retirement calculators keep missing income tax and the age pension - Treating AI like a sharp intern — useful, but you still have to check the work - End-of-financial-year planning: why “June” is too late and what to be doing in March and April - Notice of intent to claim — the timing trap that quietly deletes tax deductions - Excess concessional contributions: how the ATO's flexibility has changed the game - Property settlements vs exchange-of-contracts — why the date you assume isn't the tax date - The Census condition-of-release trick: unlocking tax-free super after 60 - Cash-out and re-contribution — saving adult-child beneficiaries tens of thousands in tax - How secure are annuities really? APRA, statutory funds, and what the government guarantee does (and doesn't) cover - Gifting an adult child a $150k house deposit — gifting limits, the 5-year deeming rule, and why a guarantor arrangement is often the better move Resources for this episode - Wattle Partners - Northeast Wealth - ATO myGov — check your concessional cap and carry-forward space - ATO — Notice of intent to claim a deduction for personal super contributions - Services Australia — Gifting and the age pension - Challenger — Australia's biggest annuity provider (mentioned in the annuities discussion) – Ask a question (select the Retirement podcast) Show partner resources – Visit TermPlus to learn more – Have the chance to win a 5k travel voucher.

Il fermo nazionale dell autotrasporto previsto dal 25 al 29 maggio è stato sospeso dopo l'incontro di venerdi 22 Maggio a Palazzo Chigi fra Governo e associazioni di categoria. La protesta era nata per l'aumento dei costi del carburante, con il gasolio passato in meno di due mesi da 1,70 a oltre 2,10 euro al litro, e per gli effetti considerati insufficienti del taglio generalizzato delle accise. Dal confronto con l'esecutivo è arrivato un pacchetto da circa 300 milioni di euro sotto forma di credito d imposta per compensare parte dei rincari sostenuti dalle imprese nei mesi di marzo, aprile e maggio rispetto ai prezzi medi di febbraio: non uno sconto diretto alla pompa, ma un ristoro fiscale per alleggerire l impatto del caro diesel sui bilanci delle aziende. Ne abbiamo parlato con Claudio Donati, segretario generale di Assotir. Semiconduttori: da inizio anno rally del 72%. Ma BOFA dice non è BollaLa domanda esplosa dei data center e degli hyperscaler globali ha fatto impennare i prezzi delle DRAM e consolidato il potere contrattuale dei produttori, oggi sostenuti da accordi pluriennali con i grandi operatori tecnologici. E se la domanda cresce, l'offerta si adegua. Nel suo ultimo State of Union sull'industria dei semiconduttori, Bank of America ha rivisto al rialzo in modo significativo le proprie previsioni relative alle dimensioni del mercato globale dei semiconduttori. La banca prevede che il mercato potenziale complessivo dei semiconduttori raggiungerà circa mille e trecento miliardi di dollari entro il 2026 (rispetto alla precedente previsione di mille miliardi di dollari), per arrivare a circa 2mila miliardi di dollari entro il 2030. Il rapporto sottolinea che l'intelligenza artificiale (IA) e i data center (compresi i sistemi di elaborazione, le reti e lo storage) saranno i principali motori di crescita, mentre il settore industriale (rifornimento delle scorte e robotica) fungerà da motore secondario. E a proposito del rischio "bolla" nel suo report BOFA scrive: "L'intelligenza artificiale ha ancora forza strutturale. Il peso dei semiconduttori negli indici di borsa è di circa il 18% nell S&P500 ed è vero che aumenta la sensibilità macroeconomica del mercato. Ma il movimento è guidato dagli utili, il rapporto prezzo/utili da qui ai prossimi 12mesi è di 1:25, sostanzialmente inalterato da inizio anno ed è ancora sotto i precedenti picchi. Ci sono poche evidenze di un'inflazione speculativa dei multipli, elemento che supporta la secolarità del really nel contesto della crescita strutturale A.I."Il commento di Filippo Diodovich Senior analyst di IG Sanchez a Roma. Italia e Spagna a confronto: a cosa si deve il miracolo di MadridLe tensioni geopolitiche in corso, dalla guerra in Ucraina ai dazi imposti dagli Stati Uniti e ora lo shock energetico determinato dall attacco israelo-americano all Iran, stanno avendo come del resto in tutti i paesi europei conseguenze pesanti sull economia italiana. Lo attestano le stime della Commissione europea che collocano la crescita per l Italia allo 0,5% quest anno e allo 0,6% il prossimo, con rischi evidenti di ulteriori revisioni al ribasso. Ma se si scorrono dati e tabelle del Rapporto annuale dell Istat, se ne trae la conclusione che il problema della bassa crescita nel nostro Paese è di lunga durata, come emerge dal confronto con le principali economie europee, e soprattutto con quella spagnola. Da tempo si parla di miracolo spagnolo per le indubbie performance messe a segno da Madrid. È effettivamente tale? L Istat rileva in particolare che tra il 2022 e il 2025 la crescita del Pil ha raggiunto il 9% in Spagna, a fronte del 2,3% in Italia. Un risultato che riflette «una maggiore capacità dell economia spagnola di generare una crescita più sostenuta della domanda interna e dell attività produttiva, anche attraverso incrementi della produttività e un maggiore orientamento verso settori a tecnologia più avanzata, specialmente nei servizi». Vi è senza dubbio dietro queste cifre l effetto della regolarizzazione degli immigrati irregolari. Del resto la principale fonte di immigrati in Spagna è l America latina, dove si parla lo spagnolo. Poi si registra il traino dei servizi e del Pnrr. Nel periodo 2022-2025 in Spagna si è registrata una crescita da consumi ed esportazioni pari rispettivamente a 6,8 e 3,6 punti percentuali, rispetto al 2,2 e 0,2% messo a segno in Italia nello stesso periodo. In sostanza in Spagna si evidenzia un maggiore dinamismo dei consumi delle famiglie che secondo l Istat è riconducibile sia a fattori demografici sia a una crescita sostenuta dei redditi reali. Ma ancora una volta su questa fondamentale componente demografica un effetto predominante lo si deve all aumento della popolazione spagnola tra i 15 e i 64 anni (+4,6% tra il 2022 e il 2025), superiore a quello italiano (+1,6%, grazie alla forte espansione della componente degli stranieri regolari (+22,3% contro il +4,6% in Italia). Chiediamo chiarimenti al collega Dino Pesole che ne ha scritto nei giorni scorsi.E' stato ospite a Focus Economia Dino Pesole, editorialista del Sole 24 Ore Ey-Oxford Economics, in Italia Pil a +0,4% nel 2026, pesano shock energeticiLa guerra in Medio Oriente e i conseguenti shock energetici hanno innescato un forte rallentamento della crescita a livello globale, pur senza configurare al momento una recessione mondiale. È quanto emerge dal rapporto presentato durante l'evento 'Scenari macroeconomici e intelligenza artificiale: implicazioni, sfide e opportunità', organizzato da Oxford Economics in collaborazione con Ey, in cui viene stimata una crescita del Pil italiano dello 0,4% nel 2026 (UN O,1% IN MENO RISPETTO ALLA STIMA DELL'FMI DI OGGI), "in un contesto - si legge in una nota - di elevata incertezza e domanda interna poco dinamica". Secondo l'analisi, nel 2027 si osserverà una lieve accelerazione della crescita del Pil (+0,6%), riconducibile a un andamento dei consumi privati e della domanda estera positivi, a fronte di una leggera contrazione degli investimenti, quest'ultima dovuta alla fine di importanti incentivi fiscali, all'esaurimento del Pnrr e a un contesto di maggiore incertezza. Per l'Eurozona, il rapporto stima una crescita dello 0,7% nel 2026, con un'inflazione media intorno al 3%, quasi il doppio rispetto alle previsioni precedenti, con un picco intorno al 3,5% nel secondo e terzo trimestre.L'analisi di Ey e Oxford Economics si è concentrata su quattro settori produttivi rilevanti per l'economia italiana, ovvero alimentare, tessile, automotive e il comparto dei macchinari, stimando una crescita moderata della produzione tra il 2025 e il 2027. Il settore alimentare dovrebbe registrare una crescita stabile e moderata nel medio periodo (+1,8% nel 2026 e nel 2027), sostenuta prevalentemente dall'export, a fronte di consumi interni deboli e dei rischi legati all'aumento dei costi per l'agricoltura. Il settore del tessile e dell'abbigliamento crescerà in misura contenuta nel biennio 2026- 2027 (rispettivamente +1,2% e +1,3%), trainato quasi esclusivamente dall'export, mentre la domanda interna sarà stagnante e peseranno le pressioni dei competitor internazionali, in particolare asiatici. Per quanto riguarda il comparto dei macchinari, l'analisi sostiene che attraverserà una fase di normalizzazione dopo il ciclo espansivo legato agli incentivi, tornando a una crescita stabile (+1,7% nel 2026 e +1,8% nel 2027), sostenuta dall'export e da una graduale ripresa della domanda interna. Il settore crescerà debolmente (+0,9% nel 2026 e +0,5% nel 2027), con export di segno positivo ma investimenti in contrazione. La transizione verso l'elettrico resta un elemento critico, con il rischio di ridimensionare la produzione domestica. Il settore automotive crescerà debolmente (+0,9% nel 2026 e +0,5% nel 2027), con export di segno positivo ma investimenti in contrazione; la transizione verso l elettrico resta un elemento critico, con il rischio di ridimensionare la produzione domestica.Mario Rocco, Valuation, Modelling and Economics Leader di EY in Italia, ai microfoni di Vincenzo Miglietta.

Drop us a noteIn this episode of Risk! Engineers Talk Governance, due diligence engineers Richard Robinson and Gaye Francis discuss the mathematics behind risk modelling and why relying on heat maps for decision-making can have limitations.Richard and Gaye explore the concept of the "ideal" hazard risk curve, unpacking why every hazard carries its own unique risk profile rather than a neat line of constant risk. Drawing on Heinrich's accident triangle and the hyperbolic relationship between consequence and likelihood, Richard walks through the calculus of integrating under a risk curve, and why simply "spotting the dot" on a five-by-five risk matrix can underestimate high-consequence, low-likelihood events by an order of magnitude or more.They discuss the limitations of the standard risk matrix for large organisations dealing with vastly different scales of risk, and why New Zealand's updated WHS legislation is shifting focus toward identifying critical hazards and credible controls first, rather than getting bogged down debating likelihood.Key takeaways:Heat maps are useful for communication, but dangerous as standalone decision-making toolsThe area under the risk curve matters – it's far larger than a single dot suggestsSafety risk assessment should prioritise critical hazards and reasonable controls over likelihood argumentsNote: This episode references slides — for the full visual experience, check out the YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/R2aAu.If you'd like us to cover a specific topic or have any feedback we'd love to hear from you.

En 1971, un agricultor alemán llamado Herbert Bartz llegó al sur de Brasil con una certeza: el suelo se estaba yendo. Cada lluvia se llevaba años de tierra fértil ladera abajo. Su respuesta fue radical: guardó el arado. Así nació, desde la desesperación y no desde un laboratorio, el sistema de siembra directa que hoy protege más suelo que cualquier otra práctica agrícola en el mundo.En este episodio exploramos los orígenes reales de la labranza cero, una revolución que comenzó entre agricultores paraguayos y brasileños en los años 70 y que hoy cubre más de 35 millones de hectáreas solo en Brasil. Una práctica que no llegó de las universidades sino del campo, de productores que no podían permitirse seguir perdiendo lo que tenían debajo de los pies.Explicamos con precisión cómo funciona el sistema: el manejo de rastrojos, las condiciones mínimas para adoptarlo, el control de malezas sin volteo del suelo y por qué los primeros años de transición son los más difíciles. Sin rodeos y sin simplificar.También conectamos la siembra directa con algo que pocos mencionan: su papel en la geopolítica agrícola global. Brasil y Argentina son potencias exportadoras de soya y maíz en parte porque sus suelos no se agotaron.

In this episode, we explore a study that leverages machine learning and causal modeling to improve pre-hospital trauma interventions, specifically endotracheal intubation. Experts Amy Nelson and Julian Thompson discuss how innovative data analysis can inform real-time decision-making, enhance patient outcomes, and optimize resource allocation in emergency settings.Main Topics:The long-standing debate over early pre-hospital intubation and its survival benefitsMethodological advances using machine learning and causal inference in emergency researchHow predictive models can support clinicians at the roadside and future directions for trauma careThe significance of integrating AI tools into clinical judgment without replacing human expertiseCost-effectiveness and system-wide implications of adopting data-driven protocols in trauma systems

It's a supersized edition of the show - Isaac has made it here from Warrnambool, but Jay Z is on special assignment so we welcome Theo Doropoulos to the team - as we look at another silent appearance from Isaac on Footy Classified. Ben McKay has been dropped to the VFL this weekend, so the team shares their views on how he can get back into form. Plus, more pressure builds up at the Blues. The team chats about the tactics ahead of tonight's game, before speaking to Fremantle Assistant Coach Jade Rawlings, then K-Mac has a double dose of the Queen's Queries. Isaac has plenty of room in both his Penthouse and Outhouse this week, then the team chats about Scott Pendlebury's upcoming AFL Games Record, and Isaac cops some harsh feedback for his list of the Best Midfielders of the 21st Century. Hawthorn Assistant Coach David Hale joins the team from Perth, as does West Coast Norm Smith Medallist Andrew Embley to take us behind the scenes of the Eagles 2006 Premiership reunion.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are joined by Ian Pritchett of Greencore Homes to talk about his science-based approach to green building and the work that has led him from developing green building materials becoming the co-founder of a vertically-integrated developer and house builder.There's a lot of history and legacy to cover because Ian has been in the green building game for decades and it's this that has informed the approach being taken right now.Greencore is also challenging the Passive House Institute about the accuracy of its PHPP (passive house planning package) modelling software because their homes outperform the model's predictions because of their use of phase-change materials.Be warned, this is nerd business—Jeff gets to interrogate the build up specification—but it doesn't get too technical to be able to follow the thread.Notes from the showThe Greencore Homes website Ian Pritchett on LinkedIn A PH+ article about Neil May**SOME SELF-PROMOTING CALLS TO ACTION**We don't actually earn anything from this podcast, and it's quite a lot of work, so we have to promote the day jobs.Follow us on the Zero Ambitions LinkedIn page (we still don't have a proper website)Jeff and Dan about Zero Ambitions Partners (the consultancy) for help with positioning and communications strategy, customer/user research and engagement strategy, carbon calculations and EPDs – we're up to all sortsSubscribe and advertise with Passive House Plus (UK edition here too)Check Lloyd Alter's Substack: Carbon UpfrontJoin ACANJoin the AECB Join the IGBCCheck out Her Retrofit Space, the renovation and retrofit platform for women**END OF SELF-PROMOTING CALLS TO ACTION**   

This episode features Dr Peter May (Cicely Saunders Institute of Palliative Care, Policy & Rehabilitation, King's College London, UK School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland).   What is already known on this topic? Specialist palliative care increases odds of dying outside hospital and improves patient quality of life, but this is a complex intervention and not all who might benefit receive specialist care. Cost-effectiveness of specialist palliative care, and the economic implications of reduced hospital deaths, is a persistent question for research and policy. Prior systematic reviews identify a lack of modelling studies as a fundamental evidence gap.   What this paper adds We used decision modelling, a widely-used method in health economics that has not been routinely applied in evaluating palliative care. The key strength of this approach is the capacity to combine data from different sources to estimate cost-effectiveness when there is insufficient trial data to answer the question. We found that both hospital-based specialist palliative care and home-based specialist palliative care for adults in England represent excellent value care, reducing the average cost per patient to the NHS while improving patient outcomes.   Implications for practice, theory or policy Specialist palliative care is currently accessed by less than half of people who might benefit in England. Expanding access would likely yield further cost-savings and improve outcomes for patients and families. However, mitigating current inequities in access and outcomes also requires new approaches to identifying, engaging and meeting the needs of underserved groups. Other countries interested in applying these methods to their own data and services can consider using our methodological templates, which we have published open access.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163261423755   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

This one's something special.We're bringing together three voices from across the world for a live roundtable discussion focused on the power of scale modelling to make a real difference:

In this episode of Enterprise Sessions from the University of Bristol, Professor Michele Barbour speaks with Professor Paul Bates, world‑leading expert in flood inundation modelling and co‑founder of Fathom, one of the University's most successful research‑driven companies.Paul reflects on a remarkable career that began with a Bristol PhD in the late 1980s and evolved into pioneering work that transformed global flood modelling. He describes the technological shift that enabled a new generation of high‑resolution terrain data, the academic debates that reshaped the field, and the multidisciplinary collaborations that built the foundation for Fathom's modelling techniques.The conversation traces Fathom's origins from two ambitious PhD students with an idea, through early years of bootstrapping, to international clients including insurers, banks, multinationals, and the World Bank. Paul also discusses the challenges of spinning out before universities had mature commercialisation systems, the importance of staying ahead of competitors through transparency and innovation, and the recent acquisition of Fathom by Swiss Re.Finally, Paul reflects on what research entrepreneurship means within academia, how Fathom has strengthened Bristol's scientific capabilities, and what lies ahead for both him and the next generation of global flood models.

In this second deep dive episode, Cherry Lim discusses how complex modelling approaches can translate into practical clinical insights. From counterfactual frameworks to real-world prescribing decisions, she explores how data-driven tools can support clinicians in choosing more effective antibiotic treatments.  Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 01:03 – Understanding counterfactual frameworks 02:56 – Antibiotic choice and survival 05:08 – Clinical decision dashboards 06:24 – Assumptions in AMR modelling

In the final deep dive, Cherry Lim looks ahead to the future of AMR surveillance. She discusses the role of microbiology labs, the value of imperfect datasets, and how integrating genomics, modelling, and cost-effectiveness could transform global health systems over the next two decades. Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 01:03 – Investing in diagnostics 02:36 – Routine surveillance data 03:53 – Global versus local AMR data 05:08 – Future health systems

Cherry Lim joins the EMJ Podcast for a rapid-fire discussion on data, modelling, and antimicrobial resistance. From surveillance gaps to the role of AI, she shares insights into how data is shaping the future of AMR research and policy.

In this first deep dive, Lim explores how routine hospital data and bacterial genomics are transforming our understanding of AMR. She explains how combining datasets and transmission models can uncover hidden pathways of resistance and highlights the challenges of working across diverse healthcare settings.

Dr. Manish Patel, co-founder and CEO of Jiva.ai and Chair of the AI Subcommittee at the BIA, where he advises the UK Government on AI policy, data privacy and healthcare applications. With a PhD in Modelling of Complex Systems from UCL and nearly a decade building algorithmic trading systems in investment banking, Manish brings a rare depth of perspective to the most overhyped term in healthcare right now.In this episode, we cut through the noise on AI. Manish challenges the very language we use, explaining why most of what gets called "AI" is really machine learning, why large language models are fundamentally not intelligent and why that distinction has very real consequences when lives are on the line. We look at where AI genuinely adds value in healthcare, from radiology to NHS administrative workflows, and where it is being dangerously overhyped, including some very pointed thoughts on using consumer-grade LLMs to make clinical diagnoses.We also explore how clinicians should think about AI as an augmenter rather than a replacement, why the productivity gains are real and where Manish believes the biggest untapped opportunity in healthcare actually sits. He closes with a frank take on what impressive AI looks like in a real clinical environment versus a polished demo and why the world is heading toward a very small group of people who truly understand what is happening under the hood.Thanks for tuning in to Episode 99.

Onlangs maakte de federale overheid bekend dat een hogesnelheidstreinverbinding tussen Sydney en Newcastle in 'de ontwikkelingsfase' zit en dat er naar verwachting in 2028 met de aanleg kan worden begonnen. We spreken met Michiel Bliemer, professor Transport Planning and Modelling aan de Universiteit van Sydney, en vroegen hem hoe serieus we dit moeten nemen.

The communications in question center on a modeling agent who maintained a long-running relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, during which he repeatedly attempted to introduce young women to him under the guise of modeling opportunities. The exchanges span years and show the agent pitching women based on their looks, age, and financial vulnerability, often framing the introductions as mutually beneficial arrangements. In one especially disturbing message, the agent explicitly encouraged Epstein to “try” a woman sexually, reducing the interaction to a transactional proposition. The tone of the correspondence suggests a level of familiarity with Epstein's preferences and a willingness to cater to them, even after Epstein's prior legal troubles were already public knowledge.Beyond the individual messages, the broader implication is the role that parts of the modeling world may have played in feeding Epstein access to young women. The emails reflect a system where aspiring models—many seeking financial stability or career opportunities—were positioned in proximity to a powerful and predatory figure. While the agent has since attempted to distance himself and downplay his intent, the language and persistence captured in the exchanges have fueled criticism that enablers within the industry either ignored warning signs or actively facilitated Epstein's behavior. The revelations add another layer to the ongoing examination of how Epstein's network operated and how he continued to maintain access to vulnerable women despite widespread rumors and prior convictions.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Modelling agent told Epstein about girl 'desperate for cash' as he begged paedo to 'try her in bed', emails show

Air trapped in a pipe could have contributed to the massive blow back of sewage that flooded the Moa Point treatment plant. Modelling in an initial report suggests during high water flow turbulence traps air in the bypass pipeline. That air acts as a block reducing waste flows. Pressure from trapped air could have forced sewage backwards up the pipe flooding the treatment plant. Wellington Water's chief operating officer Charles Barker spoke to Lisa Owen.

Baz Iyer (Vulcan) and Stephen Lloyd (Savills Earth) join us to talk about the likely impact of the UK's long-awaited Future Homes Standard (FHS) and, perhaps more importantly, the Home Energy Model (HEM).HEM is the new model that will inform the UK's Energy Performance Certification (EPC) rating system. It's much more detailed in terms of the information that it demands about the buildings it is being used to rate, and therefore much more demanding of the assessors.But this means that it can be much more useful for modelling the energy performance of buildings because it will better reflect how the building will be experienced by its users.  It won't be perfect but the level of detail that it demands means that homeowners may be able to use EPCs to make meaningful decisions about how to improve the buildings in which they live. This also means that, in time, it is conceivable that HEM can become a design tool in the same way designers use PHPP to predict performance and calibrate design. That's certainly what Baz is planning and why he and Stephen have been interrogating the place HEM will occupy in the UK construction sector, the impact it might have on its culture, and the opportunity that its adoption will open up.If anyone needs some help getting to grips with this I'd recommend they connect with Baz, he's very friendly and well-informed.Notes from the showBaz Iyer on LinkedInStephen Lloyd on LinkedIn The Vulcan websiteThe Savills Earth websiteVulcan on LinkedInOld ZAP #1 - 'Incompetence still reigns supreme' in energy ratings: DPE certification, EPCs, BERs, and a little bit of ESGOld ZAP #2 - ZAP Shady business #1 – overheating, and Camden: we should think about solar gain all year round, with Zoe De Grussa (BBSA)**SOME SELF-PROMOTING CALLS TO ACTION**We don't actually earn anything from this podcast, and it's quite a lot of work, so we have to promote the day jobs.Follow us on the Zero Ambitions LinkedIn page (we still don't have a proper website)Jeff and Dan about Zero Ambitions Partners (the consultancy) for help with positioning and communications strategy, customer/user research and engagement strategy, carbon calculations and EPDs – we're up to all sortsSubscribe and advertise with Passive House Plus (UK edition here too)Check Lloyd Alter's Substack: Carbon UpfrontJoin ACANJoin the AECB Join the IGBCCheck out Her Retrofit Space, the renovation and retrofit platform for women**END OF SELF-PROMOTING CALLS TO ACTION**

Spaces of Immigration: American Ports, Railways, and Settlements (U Pittsburgh Press, 2025) follows the travel routes of immigrants during a foundational period of American infrastructure—from ports of arrival to train cars and depots to settlements—showing how the built environment of the railways fostered segregation through physical isolation and reinforced hierarchies according to race, ethnicity, and class. Catherine Boland Erkkila highlights the magnitude of this forced separation: how spatial design and the experiences within it reflected prejudices of contemporary middle-class Americans who viewed immigrants as poor, diseased, and dangerous. Spaces of Immigration draws attention to the control wielded by railroad companies and government officials, who dispatched European immigrants to ethnic enclaves across the Midwest, some of which still exist. This book ultimately offers a greater understanding of the immigrant experience in America through the lens of spatial history, revealing deeply embedded conflicts still pervasive in our society today. This interview was conducted by Matthew Wells, Senior Lecturer in Architectural Studies at the University of Manchester. His research explores nineteenth-century European architecture, focusing on artistic techniques, technology, and political economy.

In this episode of Making Risk Flow: Exploring the Ecosystem, host Jake Harding speaks with Dave Wood, Managing Director at JBA Risk Management, about how AI and deep learning are reshaping catastrophe risk modeling. Dave explains how neural networks can simulate extreme climate scenarios that fall outside historical records, helping insurers better understand compound and tail risks. The conversation also explores why model transparency and rigorous validation are essential as AI adoption accelerates, and how insurers can scale advanced weather simulation without sacrificing accuracy. Dave also shares practical guidance on integrating best-in-class AI tools into existing risk platforms, rather than building everything from scratch  in-house. Fan Mail: Got a challenge digitizing your intake?
