Erstes Thema: SearchLeak (CVE-2026-42824). Varonis Threat Labs hat eine dreistufige Angriffskette in Microsoft 365 Copilot Enterprise Search entdeckt: Ein präparierter Microsoft-Link, dessen URL-Parameter Copilot als Prompt interpretiert, kombiniert mit einer HTML-Rendering-Race-Condition und Bings Search-by-Image-Endpunkt als unfreiwilligem Exfiltrationsproxy. Ein Klick reicht – E-Mails, MFA-Codes, Kalendereinträge, alles was der User sehen darf, fließt ab. Microsoft hat server-seitig gepatcht. Das Muster – KI-Assistent wird durch Prompt Injection zur Datenwaffe – ist strukturell: EchoLeak, Reprompt, jetzt SearchLeak, drei Angriffe derselben Klasse.Max bringt einen Blogpost von Google Cloud CISO Chris Betz, der beschreibt, wie Google seine eigene KI intern wie einen Insider behandelt: mit Least Privilege, Monitoring, Auditing und Segmentierung. Was mich interessiert: auch Google musste dafür erst mal sein Asset Management nachziehen und konsolidieren. Die Kernbotschaft bleibt trotzdem richtig – wenn Angreifer mit Machine Speed arbeiten, muss die Verteidigung das auch. Für CISOs bedeutet das: Model Security, Agent Security, Data Governance werden zur Pflicht, nicht zur Kür.Dann Robert über NPM 12: Install Scripts von Dependencies laufen nicht mehr automatisch, bestimmte Remote-Dependencies werden blockiert. Überfällig und sinnvoll – aber 30-40% der NPM-Malware läuft erst beim Import, nicht bei der Installation. Wer einen Maintainer kompromittiert, kommt weiterhin durch. Gute Iteration, kein Allheilmittel.Zum Abschluss: Apple erweitert Private Cloud Compute auf die Google Cloud. Dasselbe Zero-Trust-Prinzip wie bisher – selbst Google soll keinen Zugriff auf verarbeitete Nutzerdaten bekommen. Clevere Partnerschaft statt Frontier-Rennen.SearchLeak / CVE-2026-42824 (Varonis)https://www.varonis.com/blog/searchleakGoogle Cloud CISO Chris Betz: AI Threat Defensehttps://cloud.google.com/blog/products/identity-security/how-google-cloud-is-applying-ai-to-threat-defenseNPM 12 / Risky Business Soapbox mit Paul McCartyhttps://risky.biz/soapbox_npm12Apple Private Cloud Compute auf Google Cloudhttps://security.apple.com/blog/private-cloud-compute-google-cloud

They knew the calls were recorded. So Mackenzie Shirilla and her mother Natalie built their own language. A private code designed to say things on a monitored jail phone line that the system wouldn't catch. Prosecutors cracked it. They introduced what they found at trial. The content of those decoded conversations tells you more about the Shirilla family than anything Steve said on Netflix or anything Natalie said about the Russos.Listeners have been tracking this family since the conviction. They watched Steve defend his daughter's innocence on camera and lose his teaching position. They heard Natalie call the family of a murdered twenty-year-old “evil.” They listened to Mackenzie worry about her belongings from a jail cell while two families grieved. And they came back with one question: who built this person?Robin Dreeke, retired FBI Special Agent and former chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program, joins Tony Brueski to address that question directly. He walks through what coded communication on a monitored line tells you about the parent-child dynamic, what the documented absence of remorse language means, and whether the family's ongoing public defense is protecting Mackenzie or preventing her from ever facing accountability. Everything discussed is drawn from the public record.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Guest: John Metzger (LinkedIn), Founder of Asset Assurance Monitoring (Website)."I don't know how, but I recognized it was one of my children. My friend rescued Nicolas, and I thought: Oh my God, at least I managed to catch one."These were the words of a father fleeing the 2015 Bento Rodrigues (Mariana) dam disaster in Brazil (O Globo, 08/11/2015). Five days later, his daughter Emanuele was found dead. The collapse killed 19 people and sent a torrent of toxic mine waste 670km down the Doce River to the Atlantic Ocean. It was Brazil's worst environmental disaster.Four years later, just 70km west, it happened again. The 2019 Brumadinho dam collapse killed 272 people—including an entire family of five and an unborn child—becoming Brazil's worst industrial disaster. Both mines were owned by corporate giant Vale.When raw ore is extracted, the toxic, liquid byproduct is stored behind massive earthen structures called tailings dams. Globally, there are an estimated 29,000 to 35,000 active, inactive, or abandoned tailings storage facilities (TSFs) holding 223 billion tonnes of waste (World Mine Tailings Failures). Active sites account for 85% of all failures. The risk is ongoing: as of late 2025, Brazil alone has 916 dams, with 74 at high risk of collapse and 91 on alert, concentrated heavily in the mining hub of Minas Gerais.When these structures are poorly designed or neglected, they fail. When they fail, the wall of mud obliterates everything in its path.Our guest today, John Metzger, is an expert on the advanced monitoring systems designed to prevent these catastrophes. Having led an incredible, multi-country career, John joins us to explain how real-time data, geotechnical instrumentation, and rigorous telemetry save lives.There were fatal systemic flaws of recent disasters—including why Brumadinho's emergency warning alarms failed to sound, echoing previous conversations on the show with Floodmapp's Juliette Murphy on the desperate need for strict flood-alarm regulations (YouTube Link). Also corporate failures: reports that Vale knew of automated sensor malfunctions two days before the Brumadinho collapse (Mining.com Report) and allegations that safety inspectors felt corporate pressure to sign off on unstable structures.Despite these failures, there are rays of hope. First, the recent establishment of the UN-backed Global Tailings Management Institute (GTMI), a new international watchdog tasked with ending corporate negligence in tailings management. Second, I want to honor the legacy of Lindsay Newland Bowker, the actuary behind the vital World Mine Tailings Failures database, who passed away in May 2026. To ensure her work is not lost to time, I have an upcoming conversation with Ankur Shah of PlanetSapling to discuss the future of open-source risk mapping.

Production gaps are often blamed on low case acceptance or insufficient diagnosis, but the real issue may begin with how the schedule is structured, protected, and maintained. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with dental practice coach Ariel Siegel about identifying whether lost production begins in the schedule or the operatory. You will learn how reappointment systems, downtime monitoring, intentional scheduling, and future schedule protection can create more consistent production and smoother clinical days. To understand where production gaps begin and what your team can do about them, listen to Episode 1063 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysProduction problems may result from scheduling systems even when diagnosis and treatment acceptance remain strong.Constantly filling last-minute openings prevents administrative team members from completing other production-building activities.Filling schedule gaps with unsuitable appointments can disrupt the intended flow and energy of the clinical day.Strong reappointment systems help patients understand why they are returning and reduce future cancellations.Protecting the future schedule allows the team to maintain production goals and minimize bottlenecks.Monitoring doctor and hygiene downtime reveals both large openings and smaller gaps that accumulate throughout the day.Designing the schedule around provider energy and appointment type supports more consistent monthly production and revenue.Snippets:00:00 Metric Mondays Intro01:19 Schedule vs Operatory02:20 Why Gaps Happen03:28 When It Goes Wrong04:26 Scramble Fill Trap06:51 Getting It Right07:57 Protect Future Schedule09:17 Design Around Energy10:07 Action Steps Today11:17 Resources and Wrap Up11:57 Final Thanks and OutroGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Ariel has a master's in healthcare administration and several years of dental experience in all aspects of the administrative roles within the dental office.

Portfolio poison: How ignoring modern slavery risks your returnsQuestion:Why does modern slavery persist despite Australia's Modern Slavery Act, and what practical steps can investors and fund managers take to drive real change beyond compliance?Answer:Modern slavery remains a global issue, with an estimated 50 million people affected. Australia's Modern Slavery Act has increased awareness but hasn't yet reduced incidents. According to Måns Carlsson, OAM, head of ESG at Ausbil Active Sustainable Equity, the key is moving beyond a “compliance mindset” to genuine leadership. This means harmonising laws internationally, adopting human rights due diligence (not just reporting), and using investor influence for practical engagement with companies.Investors can't guarantee portfolios are free from modern slavery risk, but they can:• Incentivise suppliers to meet responsible sourcing standards, focusing on deeper supply chain tiers (not just tier one).• Use tools like worker voice technology for real-time feedback, rather than relying solely on annual audits.• Collaborate with other investors and advocate for stronger, harmonised laws (e.g., import bans on goods made with forced labour).• Support companies to improve, rewarding progress rather than demanding perfection.The real power lies in ongoing, practical engagement and policy advocacy, not just risk assessments or box-ticking.Why it matters:Modern slavery is not just a legal or ethical issue—it's a material risk for companies and investors. Reputational damage (as seen with Boohoo in the UK) can hit share prices hard and fast. As global regulation tightens, companies that fail to act may find their goods blocked from key markets. For investors, supporting companies to improve standards helps reduce risk, avoid negative surprises, and contribute to positive change.Sources:• Måns Carlsson, head of ESG, Ausbil Active Sustainable Equity• Michelle Baltazar, executive director of media, FS Sustainability• RIAA Human Rights Working Group toolkitsTimestamps:00:00 – Why modern slavery persists; need for global collaboration02:01 – Investor relevance: reputational risk, earnings sustainability05:51 – Harmonisation, human rights due diligence, import bans08:40 – Practical steps: engagement, worker voice tools, supplier incentives13:19 – Responsible purchasing and unintended consequences16:40 – Monitoring deeper supply chain tiers18:32 – Accountability and ongoing engagement20:54 – ESG, risk management, and performanceWe record on Gadigal Land and we pay our respects to the traditional custodians of country and elders past and present.https://www.fssustainability.com.au/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

In this episode of PICU Doc on Call, hosts Dr. Monica Gray and Dr. Pradip Kamat explore procedural sedation in the pediatric ICU. They cover sedation levels, pre-screening, risk stratification using ASA classifications, and medication selection tailored to each patient's hemodynamic and respiratory status. Through real-world case discussions involving respiratory failure, septic shock, and acute neurological decline, they highlight the importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring and early adverse event recognition. Key takeaways include avoiding the term "conscious sedation," preparing rescue plans, and prioritizing patient safety through careful assessment and monitoring.Show Highlights:Definitions and levels of sedation (minimal, moderate, deep sedation, and general anesthesia)Importance of terminology in procedural sedationMonitoring sedation levels using scales like the Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS)Pre-screening and risk stratification considerations for pediatric patientsASA physical status classification system for assessing patient riskUnique challenges of procedural sedation in critically ill childrenAdverse events associated with pediatric procedural sedation, particularly respiratory complicationsManagement strategies for specific cases requiring sedation (e.g., respiratory failure, septic shock)Importance of end-tidal CO2 monitoring during sedationKey takeaways for safe sedation practices in the pediatric ICU settingReferences: Nir Atlas; Rahul C.

Most serious cyclists ride their easy days a little too hard. A new study suggests that costs you fatigue and recovery without buying any extra fitness.20 trained amateur runners, matched for volume, trained for six weeks either at the top of the moderate domain or 10 to 15 percent below it. Both groups improved by the same amount, but the higher group paid more in perceived effort and recovery.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back Bill Holter to the show. Bill is a Precious Metals Expert and a metals Broker. Holter warns that the global economy faces a unique and dangerous combination of hyperinflation and deflation occurring simultaneously, a scenario where the cost of living rises rapidly while asset prices fall. He attributes this to the world's unprecedented debt levels and rising interest rates, which reduce borrowing capacity and crush asset values. Central banks, he argues, cannot allow deflation given the massive debt overhang and will eventually devalue fiat currencies, much like the U.S. did in the 1930s. This environment makes gold uniquely valuable, as it preserves purchasing power during both inflation and deflation. Holter sees recent weakness in gold as partly driven by its use as a funding source for major IPOs, including SpaceX, and by emerging market economies selling gold for liquidity. Despite the pullback, he views current prices as an attractive entry point, particularly for silver, which he believes is heavily manipulated through paper contracts and naked shorts. He expects a failure to deliver in silver, citing a six-year structural deficit and soaring demand, which would then shatter trust in gold futures and the entire derivatives complex. On portfolio strategy, Holter advises a heavier allocation to silver due to the elevated gold-to-silver ratio, suggesting it will outperform on a percentage basis. His core recommendation is to hold whatever amount one cannot afford to lose in physical gold and silver, emphasizing their lack of counterparty risk. He also advocates owning mining stocks for leverage, noting they are now more profitable than ever as gold prices rise faster than input costs. However, he cautions investors to take physical possession of share certificates to avoid broker insolvency risk and to diversify geographically across majors, intermediates, and juniors. Holter dismisses platinum group metals as too industrial and not monetary, urging a focus solely on gold and silver for the turbulent times ahead.

Three-cornered alfalfa hopper (TCAH) is the only confirmed insect vector of grapevine red blotch virus in Vitis vinifera, yet many growers first realize they have the pest only after spotting petiole girdling in the vineyard. Cindy Kron, North Coast IPM Advisor at UC ANR, shares findings from two years of weekly sweep-net monitoring at Oakville Research Station that revealed TCAH adults are present well before bud break, suggesting grapevines are not their preferred host. She explains the insect's life stages, why legumes serve as key feeding and reproductive hosts, and why detecting early instars remains a major challenge for vineyard IPM.

In "Is Your Freight Secure: The 3 Key Vulnerabilities in Freight Operations", Joe Lynch and Mike Hane, Director of Product Marketing for Transportation Management at Descartes Systems Group, discuss how to protect global supply chains from fragmented technology, carrier identity theft, and increasingly sophisticated cargo fraud. About Michael Hane Mike Hane is the Director of Product Marketing for Transportation Management at Descartes Systems Group. With more than 30 years of experience in transportation, logistics technology, and supply chain consulting, Mike helps organizations understand emerging freight trends and apply technology to build more resilient and efficient transportation operations. Prior to joining Descartes, Mike held leadership roles at DAT, Optilogic, CHAINalytics, and CAPS Logistics, where he focused on transportation strategy, network optimization, and freight market intelligence. At Descartes, he works closely with shippers, brokers, and logistics service providers to translate industry challenges into practical technology solutions across transportation management, real-time visibility, carrier connectivity, and logistics security. Mike frequently shares insights on transportation technology trends, digital transformation in freight, and the evolving role of logistics networks in global supply chains. About Descartes Systems Group Descartes powers more responsive, efficient, secure and sustainable international and domestic supply chains by uniting logistics-intensive businesses on its Global Logistics Network (GLN). Shippers, carriers, and logistics service providers connect and collaborate on the GLN leveraging technology, data and AI to manage last mile deliveries, domestic and international shipments, transportation rating and payment, global trade research, customs compliance and a variety of regulatory processes. Key Takeaways: Is Your Freight Secure: The 3 Key Vulnerabilities in Freight Operations In "Is Your Freight Secure: The 3 Key Vulnerabilities in Freight Operations", Joe Lynch and Mike Hane, Director of Product Marketing for Transportation Management at Descartes Systems Group, discuss how to protect global supply chains from fragmented technology, carrier identity theft, and increasingly sophisticated cargo fraud.  The 3 Key Vulnerabilities discussed are listed below: Vulnerability 1 – Outdated, Clunky Freight Tech Stack. The modern logistics tech stack is a prime target for sophisticated bad actors who are now using AI to scale their attacks. This vulnerability focuses on the integrity of the TMS suite and broader tech stack, requiring companies to have the scale and advanced defenses necessary to stay ahead of automated threats. Vulnerability 2 – Carrier Identity Theft & Freight Hijacking. Freight fraud—including double brokering and fraudulent load pickups—is a direct result of failing to verify identity at the point of transaction. This vulnerability highlights the operational risk of giving freight to an unverified actor, proving that basic vetting is no longer enough to prevent cargo loss. Vulnerability 3 – Data Exposure & Unsecured Partner Connectivity. Modern freight operations are at risk due to the fragmentation of data and automation. This vulnerability focuses on the danger of shipment data and AI tools operating outside of a trusted environment. When partners connect to technology platforms without rigorous security, the entire network becomes a target for leaks and external manipulation. Modernizing the Tech Stack: Fragmented or legacy systems create security gaps. Freight operations must move toward integrated, secure platforms rather than a patchwork of disconnected software to ensure data integrity and vendor stability. The "Verify Then Trust" Model: To combat identity theft and "chameleon carriers," logistics providers should use automated vetting to verify not just the carrier's authority, but also the specific driver and equipment via VIN and geolocation. Neutralizing Sophisticated Fraud: Cargo theft has evolved into organized corporate scams involving double brokering and fake insurance. Real-time monitoring for suspicious tracking pings or IP addresses is now essential to identify bad actors before a load is picked up. Strengthening Operational Hygiene: Security relies on strict Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). This includes "zeroing out" inactive carriers every few months to force re-vetting and immediately revoking system access for former employees. Strategic AI Integration: AI should be used to automate high-volume manual tasks—like chasing tracking updates or proof of delivery—within a secure logistics environment to prevent sensitive financial data from being exposed to unvetted models. Global Multimodal Connectivity: Leveraging a Global Logistics Network (GLN) allows shippers and brokers to collaborate across air, ocean, and truck modes while maintaining high standards for customs and regulatory compliance. Visibility as a Risk Deterrent: Real-time visibility is a critical security layer. Monitoring for location spoofing or unauthorized stops allows for immediate intervention if a shipment is being diverted to a fraudulent location.

Digital workflows are changing how dentists select, plan, monitor, and communicate clear aligner treatment. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings back Dr. Maria Jose Blanco Solis, private practice dentist and clear aligner educator, to discuss how digital workflow innovations are transforming aligner treatment in 2026.You will learn how to evaluate aligner case complexity, monitor tracking and compliance, use auxiliary techniques, manage retention protocols, and think about aligners as part of a broader functional and preventive approach to dentistry. To understand how to make aligner workflows more predictable and practical in your practice, listen to Episode 1059 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Clear aligners have expanded from simple aesthetic cases to more complex Class II, Class III, surgical, and multidisciplinary treatment plans.Case selection should include evaluation of occlusion, arch form, profile, crossbites, growth status, recession, and bone support.CBCT, STL files, and complete diagnostic records give doctors better control and confidence when planning aligner treatment.Monitoring appointments should focus on aligner fit, attachment integrity, tracking gaps, programmed IPR, and occlusal contacts.Patient compliance remains essential because aligners generally require 22 hours of daily wear.Auxiliary techniques such as buttons, elastics, TADs, and bootstrap mechanics can improve movement predictability in moderate and severe cases.Retention protocols should account for occlusal stability and patient compliance, especially when deciding between clear retainers and lingual wires.Snippets:00:00 Welcome And Guest Intro02:11 Meet Dr Mari Jose03:14 Aligners In 202605:24 Case Selection Basics06:55 Monitoring And Tracking10:37 Doctor Coaching Support11:13 Micronutrients And Compliance13:03 Retainers And Stability14:45 Aux Techniques And Elastics16:32 Posterior Open Bite Causes18:24 Retainer Wear Schedule19:52 Future Of Aligner Care22:20 Final Tips And Records23:14 Contact Info And Spark24:28 The Exchange Event Preview25:00 Final thoughts on case selection, auxiliary techniques, and live case alignment.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Dr. Maria Jose Blanco Solis is a dentist in private practice in San Jose, Costa Rica.

The Zero Project Tech Forum has arrived in Africa. Steven Scott and Shaun Preece meet three innovators from Nairobi using sonar wearables, local wheelchair manufacturing, and AI-powered cardiac monitoring to reshape assistive technology on the continent. The Zero Project, a global initiative of Austria's Essl Foundation, has taken its Tech Forum to Nairobi for the first time, gathering disability-focused innovators from across Africa and beyond. Steven Scott and Shaun Preece speak with three of them who are each solving a distinct but connected problem: how to make assistive technology appropriate, affordable, and available where it is needed most. Brian Mwenda, CEO of Hope Tech, shares the decade-long journey behind the Sixth Sense, a shoulder-worn device that uses sonar and haptic feedback to alert blind and visually impaired users to obstacles at chest height and above. Designed to look like a pair of headphones resting on the shoulders, it pairs with existing white cane technique and works alongside guide dogs rather than replacing them. The device can be customised for different types of sight loss, including tunnel vision and peripheral vision loss, and connects to a smartphone app for turn-by-turn navigation. Brian also talks about Census Hub, the Nairobi-based innovation space his team has built to support other assistive tech developers across Africa. Colman Ndetembea, co-founder and CEO of Kyaro Assistive Tech, explains how his Tanzanian social enterprise manufactures wheelchairs and rehabilitation equipment to World Health Organization quality standards. With 45 products, over 2,000 devices distributed since 2021, and distribution reaching Kenya, Uganda, and Malawi, Kyaro is addressing a stark reality: 90 per cent of people in need of a wheelchair on the continent still cannot access one. Colman shares the story of Aidan, a child who received a Kyaro wheelchair in 2021 after nine months homebound following an amputation, and who has since qualified for the wheelchair tennis World Cup. Gerrishon Sirere, co-founder of Hoptics, introduces CardioGuard, an AI-powered cardiovascular monitoring platform designed for preventive healthcare. Currently in beta testing with a hardware wearable and an active pilot along the Kenyan coast, CardioGuard gives clinicians a way to monitor patients remotely and provides people with disabilities, who often cannot physically reach a healthcare facility, with real-time alerts and health recommendations. The platform has been through clinical validation research with the University of Toronto. Relevant Links

A tick bite that can trigger a lifelong allergy to red meat sounds almost unbelievable, but public health officials are taking the growing threat of alpha-gal syndrome seriously.  Robert Goldstein, ASTHO member and commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, shares with us why Massachusetts recently made alpha-gal syndrome a reportable condition and what the state hopes to learn through expanded surveillance. Dr. Goldstein explains how the spread of the Lone Star tick into parts of Massachusetts, including Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket, has led to rising diagnoses of the condition. The conversation explores how public health agencies are adapting traditional infectious disease surveillance systems to monitor a non-infectious condition, what the reporting data could reveal about emerging tick-borne risks, and how public health and wildlife officials are working together to better understand the relationship between deer populations and tick exposure.Leading Change Workshop - July 2026Prepared Together: Public Health Collaboration in Response to a Botulism Outbreak

"I feel like we are making a change in the way that people now see the volcanoes and see the earthquakes in El Salvador. So in that sense, I think we are making a a big change.” Adonay Martinez Coto and Susana Delgado discuss their Geoscientists Without Borders project to improve seismic monitoring around Santa Ana volcano in El Salvador. Their work shows how geophysics can move beyond instruments and data to help communities understand hazards, prepare for future activity, and see science as part of daily life. The project also shows why community-centered geophysics matters: instruments in schools and local spaces can turn monitoring into education, awareness, and preparedness. For listeners, it is a clear example of how applied geoscience can serve people before the next disaster happens.

Content's value is in the intelligence it brings, regardless of what system it's found in. But there is a lot of enterprise content across many, many systems.On the Mostly Unstructured Podcast, KeyMark CMO Clay Tuten sits down with Mike Askren, VP of Product at Hyland, on how document management and ECM are becoming an intelligence layer for agentic AI, and the right size and scale problems to tackle with agents.Topics explored: Why has enterprise value moved from storing and securing content to extracting intelligence from it? How content federation connects AI services to content across on-prem, cloud, and hyperscaler systems. What an enterprise context engine does, and why the relationships between documents matter more than the engine itself. Why agentic governance matters so much. Monitoring, coaching, and shutting down agents that hallucinate or run on stale instructions. Why the highest-ROI AI work comes from the processes that are least exciting, but have the highest volume of occurrence. Questions this episode answers: What is the intelligence layer in enterprise content management? How much enterprise data is unstructured, and why does it matter for AI? What is content federation and why is it needed for enterprise AI? What is agent governance and how is it different from data governance? How do you get ROI from AI without replacing your existing systems? Where should a CIO start when moving ECM into an AI intelligence layer? What is intelligent document processing (IDP) and how does it relate to agentic automation?

Today, Shay interviews NDSU Extension Livestock Environmental Stewardship Specialist, Miranda Meehan about how cattle water quality affects intake, performance, abortions, central nervous system disorders, and death. Meehan explains how geology influences salts, sulfates, TDS, nitrates, and phosphorus in springs, ponds, creeks, and wells, with drought concentrating minerals and increasing risk; she also notes regional concerns such as higher nitrates in the Southern Plains.   She recommends testing at least a week before turning cattle into a pasture and more often during drought, using simple screening tools like handheld TDS meters and sulfate strips, then submitting samples for lab panels (pH, sulfates, TDS, nitrates) when elevated. If water is unsafe, options include fencing off sources, hauling water (including possible ELAP/FSA assistance), and longer-term infrastructure like wells, pipelines, or rural water, while checking aquifer test data. They also stress monitoring for cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) blooms, which can occur earlier or later in the year and can kill within 15 minutes, using visual checks and tools like trail cameras.   Learn more about what Vence could look like on your operation here: https://bit.ly/4kfWrCG   Learn more about Noble here: https://bit.ly/3DD7uG0   Catch more conversations like this one and learn more at https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/    00:41 Meet Miranda Meehan 01:05 Why Water Quality Matters 02:43 What Impacts Water Sources 05:11 How Often to Test 05:56 Easy Screening Tools 07:38 Reading Lab Results 09:47 Fixing Bad Water 11:50 Blue Green Algae Danger 13:56 Tech for Monitoring

The National Science Foundation has announced it will begin removing most of the Ocean Observatories Initiative, a collection of roughly 900 instruments in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans that gathers fixed-point data on temperature, carbon dioxide levels, and more. The move is part of a broader trend within the current administration to shelve climate science research and reporting.   Also, today the Agora and Acropolis of Athens, Delphi on Mount Parnassus, and other Greek archaeological sites preserve not only cultural heritage, but also animal and plant species, including some that were around in ancient times and are described in historical accounts and Greek mythology. And the indigenous residents of Bougainville island in Papua New Guinea say their home used to provide them with everything they needed—shelter, fertile land, and clean water. That is until a copper and gold mine run by British-Australian company Rio Tinto set up shop and operated in the 1970s and 80s. Today, heavy metals like copper sulfate and cadmium still pollute waterways, and Theonila Roka Matbob, the 2026 Goldman Environmental Prize Winner for Islands and Island Nations, has been fighting for years to pressure Rio Tinto into taking full responsibility for remediating this damage. --   Save the date and sign up for the next virtual Living on Earth Book Club event on July 14 at 5 pm PDT / 8 pm EDT!

In this episode, Alex Quin and Michelle Chia return to the podcast after a brief hiatus to share personal and professional updates, discuss the realities of entrepreneurship, and break down the healthy habits that help them sustain long workdays without burning out. From sleep, exercise, nutrition, and stress management to setting boundaries, journaling, and personal growth, they offer practical insights for entrepreneurs looking to build successful businesses while protecting their health and well-being.Episode Outline:[00:00] Welcome Back and Life Updates[02:15] Agency Growth, New Clients, and New Books[04:20] Why We Chose Healthy Habits for Entrepreneurs[08:05] Sleep, Recovery, and Long-Term Performance[10:12] Taking Breaks, Walking, and Staying Active[12:25] Time Blocking and Productivity Systems[14:15] Setting Boundaries With Clients[16:05] Learning to Say No[17:35] WHOOP, Oura Ring, and Health Tracking[19:05] Michelle's Cortisol and Stress Story[21:40] Nutrition, Hydration, and Managing Stress[23:10] The Tarzan "Swinging Vines" Concept[25:05] Becoming Your 2.0 Self[26:40] Journaling, Books, and Personal Growth[27:50] Habits We're Trying to Change[28:40] Final Thoughts and Closing RemarksWisdom Nuggets:Sleep Is a Competitive Advantage: Entrepreneurs often treat sleep like a luxury instead of a necessity. Alex and Michelle remind us that better decisions, sharper focus, and sustainable growth all start with proper recovery. The goal isn't to work more hours—it's to make your hours more effective.Protect Your Energy: Being available 24/7 may feel like great customer service, but constant accessibility creates burnout. Setting healthy boundaries with clients, coworkers, and even family members allows you to show up at your best when it matters most.Track Your Health Like Your Business: Most entrepreneurs obsess over revenue, sales, and analytics while ignoring their own health metrics. Monitoring stress levels, sleep quality, blood work, and recovery can help identify issues early and improve long-term performance.Let Go to Level Up: Growth often requires releasing habits, relationships, or routines that no longer serve your future. Like Tarzan swinging from one vine to the next, you have to let go of the old before you can fully grab onto new opportunities.Become Your Next Version: Success isn't about staying the same person and hoping for different results. The habits, mindset, and behaviors that got you here may not be enough to get you where you want to go next. Continuous self-improvement is a requirement, not an option.Power Quotes"Your heart rhythm is a very important thing that people don't even pay attention to." - Alex Quin"It's okay to say no and it's okay to put yourself first." - Michelle ChiaConnect with Michelle:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/michellechia)Linkedin: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-chia1/)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Books Mentioned:Atomic Habits — James ClearThe Road Less Stupid — Keith J.

Have you ever found yourself wondering if you're doing enough?Should you be tracking your sleep more closely? Monitoring your glucose? Taking more supplements? Investing in another recovery tool? Finding one more way to optimize your health and performance?In today's world, it's easy to feel like there is always another metric to improve, another score to chase, and another strategy promising better results.In this episode, Kevin and I take a closer look at what happens when the pursuit of optimization starts working against us.We explore the rise of the "optimizer" identity and how many runners and health-conscious individuals are being pulled into a culture that encourages constant measurement, analysis, and self-improvement. While data can absolutely be helpful, we discuss what happens when metrics become the goal instead of a tool.We dive into how wearables, sleep scores, recovery scores, continuous glucose monitors, and other tracking technologies can sometimes create more anxiety than awareness. We also unpack concepts like orthorexia and orthosomnia—conditions where the pursuit of healthy eating or perfect sleep can actually become unhealthy.From there, we shift into one of the most talked-about sporting events of the year: the inaugural Enhanced Games in Las Vegas.Marketed as a revolutionary athletic competition where performance-enhancing drugs were permitted, the Enhanced Games generated headlines, controversy, and millions of dollars in investment. But beneath the flashy marketing and bold promises lies a much bigger story about optimization culture, shortcuts, and the business of selling peak performance.We break down what actually happened, why many of the promised outcomes failed to materialize, and what the event reveals about our modern obsession with finding the fastest path to better results.Throughout the conversation, we keep coming back to a simple truth:The basics still work.The runners who make the greatest long-term progress aren't usually the ones chasing every new biohack. They're the ones consistently sleeping well, fueling appropriately, training progressively, building strength, managing stress, and recovering intentionally.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by all the health advice, gadgets, supplements, and performance metrics competing for your attention, this episode offers a refreshing reminder that you don't need to optimize everything to become a healthier, stronger runner.04:45 When Metrics Mislead06:25 Orthorexia and Clean Eating09:02 Orthosomnia and Sleep Anxiety10:56 Fragility vs Resilience12:52 Health Obsession Identity15:05 Gamifying Glucose Tracking18:40 Optimization Industry Exposed23:47 Supplements vs Foundations26:35 Enhanced Games Explained31:31 Gladiators and Reality Check33:08 Clean Athletes Win33:59 Enhanced Games Recap34:19 Super Suit World Record35:29 Weightlifting Hype Fizzles35:47 Wellness Complex Exposed38:39 Why Athletes Underperformed43:17 Foundation Beats Shortcuts46:06 Recovery Tools vs Basics49:15 Sleep Over Supplements50:24 Metrics Without Anxiety51:41 Marketing Tricks and Pink Tax55:07 Mental Strength MatterGain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.
