Dr. Kevin Ko on Biomarkers, Oral Dysplasia, and the Limits of H&E DiagnosisChristine interviews Dr. Kevin Ko (DMD, MD), a pathologist at the BC Cancer Agency with training in oral and maxillofacial pathology, anatomic pathology, and dermatopathology. They discuss his ASDP 2025 lecture on using p53 in oral dysplasia as a potential new approach and the broader problem of diagnostic discordance and over-diagnosis when relying on H&E alone. Dr. Ko shares examples from practice, including recognizing oral porokeratosis (previously followed as dysplasia for years) and a chemotherapy-related lip lesion initially suspected to be severe dysplasia but supported by wild-type biomarker results and clinical history, resolving after stopping chemotherapy drugs. He emphasizes the need for reproducible biomarkers and possibly molecular-based classification to improve consistency and patient outcomes, while also describing the pressure to be near-perfect in pathology, the risk of burnout, and efforts to build sustainable systems (QA sessions, colleague consultation, protected time). The conversation closes with his approach to presentations as storytelling, interest in prospective multi-center research, and a final message about balancing perfectionism with rest while remaining open-minded to new diagnostic methods to improve patient care.00:00 Welcome & Meet Dr. Kevin Ko (DMD/MD, Dermpath at BC Cancer)01:00 The Controversial Idea: Using p53 Biomarkers in Oral Dysplasia01:18 Oral vs Skin Pathology: Discovering Porokeratosis in the Mouth02:07 Diagnostic Error & Overdiagnosis: Why Reproducible Biomarkers Matter05:19 Case Study: “Severe Dysplasia” vs Toxic Erythema of Chemotherapy —Context Changes Everything06:36 The Perfectionism Trap in Pathology (and Why 95% Isn't Good Enough)08:04 Burnout, QA Systems, and Building Sustainable Workflows09:14 Work–Life Balance, Kids, and Choosing Priorities (Family vs Research)11:14 How to Build a Great Talk: Storytelling, Cases, and Future Studies11:38 Final Takeaways: Balance, Open-Mindedness, and Better Diagnostics

1.Jeff Bliss reports a deadly avalanche in Lake Tahoe claimed nine lives due to dry uncompacted snow, severe storms are causing heavy snowfall at Donner Pass and flooding the Los Angeles River, while Las Vegas faces declining foot traffic and Los Angeles battles rampant copper wire theft. 12.Jeff Bliss covers California's upcoming gubernatorial jungle primary with Democrat Eric Swalwell and Republican Steve Hilton as early frontrunners, Spencer Pratt challenging Mayor Karen Bass in Los Angeles, and Governor Gavin Newsom positioning himself for a 2028 presidential run on an anti-Trump platform. 23.Gene Marks reports that despite a disappointing fourth-quarter GDP growth rate of 1.4 percent and sluggishness in shipping and chemical sectors, small businesses remain surprisingly resilient with optimism above average and continued hiring plans even as AI integration remains limited. 34.Gene Marks discusses the Supreme Court ruling the administration's April 2025 emergency tariffs unconstitutional, leaving billions in collected funds in limbo, though the administration will likely utilize the Trade Acts of 1962 and 1974 to continue imposing targeted tariffs without congressional approval. 45.Jim McTague reports Lancaster County reflects the national 1.4 percent GDP slowdown with flat retail, consumer price fatigue, and plummeting restaurant traffic due to rising costs and weight-loss drugs, while Washington DC lobbying and local health and construction sectors remain strong. 56.Lorenzo Fiori reports the Milan Winter Olympics are proceeding successfully amidst beautiful snow with rumors of a Donald Trump visit for the hockey finals, while extreme weather has caused dangerous Alpine avalanches and the tragic collapse of the historic Lover's Arch on the Adriatic coast. 67.Bob Zimmerman of Behind the Black reports NASA successfully completed a wet dress rehearsal for the Artemis IImission targeting a March 6th launch, while a NASA report classified Boeing's Starliner failure as a severe Type A emergency prompting tighter control as SpaceX competition thrives. 78.Bob Zimmerman reports Japanese private space startup ispace is struggling with severe engine development problems for its lunar landers, while archival images from New Horizons reveal Pluto's bizarre splotched surface and floating ice mountains, and a newly discovered dim galaxy hints at dark matter's vastness. 89.Sir Max Hastings details the daring glider assault to capture the Orne River bridge, where Major John Howard'stroops achieved total surprise, securing a vital link for British airborne and seaborne forces on D-Day itself. 910.Sir Max Hastings discusses General Montgomery's expanded vision for D-Day and the initial chaos of the airborne landings, noting that despite the shambles at Merville battery, paratroopers' bravery confused German defenders and secured the mission's early vital stages. 1011.Sir Max Hastings highlights Major General Richard Gale's calm leadership during the chaotic airborne drops, with success relying on British deception plans and Rommel's absence preventing early German counterattacks against the beaches on D-Day. 1112.Sir Max Hastings describes specialized armored funnies that supported British landings on Sword Beach, noting that while technically successful, heavy traffic and Montgomery's overly ambitious objectives prevented the Allies from capturing Caen on D-Day. 1213.Henry Sokolski of the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center critiques the inconsistency of threatening war against Iran over its nuclear program while simultaneously considering a deal to allow Saudi Arabia uranium enrichment capabilities under less stringent international oversight. 1314.Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center explains how bipartisan spending on entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare drives national debt, arguing that American consumers, not foreign nations, primarily bear the economic burden of tariffs. 1415.Professor Richard Epstein of the Hoover Institution analyzes constitutional limits of presidential authority to fire independent agency officials, discussing historical precedents like Humphrey's Executor and critiquing legal reasoning behind maintaining quasi-judicial independence within the executive branch. 1516.Professor Richard Epstein predicts the Supreme Court may strike down tariffs, arguing that trade deficits do not constitute legal emergencies, while also discussing the potential for the Court to preserve the Federal Reserve'sindependence from executive control. 16

What can emerging technologies reveal about the nature of mind, consciousness, and awakening—and where do their limits lie?In this forward-looking conversation, Hareesh is joined by neuroscientist Dr. Ruben Laukkonen to explore the meeting points of classical Tantra, neuroscience, and artificial general intelligence. Drawing on both scientific models and contemplative insight, they reflect on how perception is constructed, how awareness recognizes itself, and what developments in AI can—and cannot—tell us about consciousness. The dialogue also touches on the “alignment problem”: how increasingly powerful intelligences might be guided toward care and human flourishing, rather than harm. Rather than offering definitive answers, the conversation opens a space for careful inquiry, humility, and wonder, inviting listeners to consider how ancient wisdom and modern science might inform one another without reductionism or hype.Discover a treasure trove of guided meditations, teachings, and courses at tantrailluminated.org.Find out more about the upcoming retreats and pilgrimages at https://www.tantrailluminated.org/calendar.Find more about Ruben at https://rubenlaukkonen.com/.

On this episode of the podcast we give our thoughts on the new look of Lara Croft, the Lego Pokemon announcements, and break down the Animal Crossing 3.0 update.

Space exploration relies heavily on the interest of the public — the voters, and taxpayers, who are ultimately footing the bill. But that support and excitement can be fickle. When space missions go well, and deliver new insights, the payoff is cheering crowds and increased support. But when they don't, the result can be reduced funding, canceled missions — and even deaths.That means, with each mission, the pressure is on to push boundaries, break new ground, and get everything right. Even a small mistake or malfunction could potentially lead to absolute disaster.On this episode, we look back at three historic NASA missions and how they shaped the course of space exploration. From the awe-inspiring triumph of the first unmanned spacecraft landing on Mars in 1976, to a devastating national tragedy in 1986, to the long-game Pluto mission launched in 2006. It was the mission that was supposed to reignite the public's interest in the work of NASA — the Space Shuttle Challenger, an orbiter that, in January 1986, would carry six astronauts and one civilian, a teacher named Christa McAuliffe, into space. But on the day of lift-off, tragedy struck — the Challenger exploded 73 seconds after launch, killing all seven crew members. We talk with author Adam Higginbotham about what led up to the mission, what went wrong, and the lasting impact it had on both NASA and the public's perception of space exploration. He's the author of “Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space.” In 2006, NASA launched New Horizons — an interplanetary space probe slated to become the first spacecraft to perform a flyby of Pluto, a journey of roughly 10 years. Pulse reporter Alan Yu tells the story of the mission's difficult beginnings, what we learned, and the dramatic moment that almost derailed everything.

*(Note Part One of this episode)New Moon Lunar Cycle Themes:  Expansion, Exploration, New Perspective through Wisdom, Spiritual Renewal. The conjunction of the Sun and Moon, “Dark Moon” part of the lunar cycle is powerful and focused as a portal toward immense changes on both a personal and collective level in 2026 This lunar cycle is especially impactful and meaningful because it is coupled with the winter Solstice in the Northern hemisphere, and the summer Solstice in the Southern hemisphere. The solstice energy is a messenger of truth, clarity and inner wisdom.  It places tremendous emphasis on relinquishing the past, while trusting in the possibilities of the future which are yet unseen and unknown. This Moon offers both inner focus, and the opportunity to experience worldly experiences through connection to Cosmic Source. Guidance through trusting intuitive insights, from the well of personal inspiration, is the key for moving toward greater and higher vibrational consciousness.During this lunar cycle, the awareness of growth, expansion, plenty, and abundance are under major consideration.  Even as we look out and observe the erroneous beliefs and falsehoods into the collective society, it's absolutely critical to dream one's own big dreams.  The sign of Sagittarius is about believing in your own  inner awareness and wisdom that connects with authentic understanding which supports dignity, respect, freedom and sovereignty for every person.This New Moon and  Solstice connections are placing emphasis on listening to yourself.  It is time to forge a personal path that does not rely on asking someone else what you “should” or need to do.  The New Moon offers opportunity to gather awareness of new intentions, while the solstice's "return to light" energy is a gateway for deeper self-realization.  Four Key Questions for 2026 DirectionWhat is your "Philosophy of Life"?How will you embrace your values and inspiration through intuitive awareness?How will you seek new meaning for yourself, as you envision experiences and possibilities that await you in the coming months?Are you willing to be the "Truth-teller", to be honest and open to the "Wisdom within yourself"?*Please enjoy Part Two of this episode:  "Sound Alchemy" with Kathy H.

Story Transcript:It: Nel cuore dell'autunno, il Mercato Luminoso era un caleidoscopio di colori e suoni.En: In the heart of autumn, the Mercato Luminoso was a kaleidoscope of colors and sounds.It: Le bancarelle erano cariche di zucche, zucche violine e frutta tardiva, mentre nell'aria galleggiavano gli aromi di olive, spezie e pane fresco.En: The stalls were laden with pumpkins, butternut squashes, and late-season fruits, while the air was filled with the aromas of olives, spices, and fresh bread.It: Musicisti suonavano allegre melodie, e il chiacchiericcio di venditori e clienti creava un'atmosfera vivace e accogliente.En: Musicians played cheerful melodies, and the chatter of vendors and customers created a lively and welcoming atmosphere.It: Luca, un giovane chef di talento, si aggirava tra i banchi con occhio esperto.En: Luca, a young talented chef, wandered among the stalls with an expert eye.It: Era alla ricerca di ingredienti freschi e locali per il suo nuovo ristorante.En: He was searching for fresh and local ingredients for his new restaurant.It: Oggi desiderava trovare delle zucche speciali per un piatto stagionale che stava pianificando.En: Today, he wanted to find special pumpkins for a seasonal dish he was planning.It: Ma il mercato era affollato, e trovare ciò che cercava si stava rivelando arduo.En: But the market was crowded, and finding what he sought was proving difficult.It: Nel frattempo, Giulia, una studentessa d'arte dalle mani veloci e curiose, camminava con la sua macchina fotografica pronta a catturare i colori e le scene dinamiche del mercato.En: Meanwhile, Giulia, an art student with quick and curious hands, walked with her camera ready to capture the colors and dynamic scenes of the market.It: Era alla ricerca di uno scatto unico per la sua imminente mostra fotografica, ma trovare un angolo che non fosse già stato fotografato da tutti sembrava impossibile.En: She was looking for a unique shot for her upcoming photography exhibition, but finding an angle that hadn't already been photographed by everyone seemed impossible.It: La folla era fitta, e mentre Luca si avvicinava a un venditore che non conosceva ancora, sperando che avesse le zucche giuste, Giulia si preparava a salire sul suo sgabello pieghevole per un punto di vista più elevato.En: The crowd was dense, and as Luca approached a vendor he didn't yet know, hoping he had the right pumpkins, Giulia was preparing to climb onto her folding stool for a higher vantage point.It: Proprio mentre Luca individuava le zucche perfette, Giulia fece un passo indietro, concentrata sull'obiettivo.En: Just as Luca spotted the perfect pumpkins, Giulia took a step back, focused on her lens.It: Senza accorgersene, Luca e Giulia si scontrarono, in un curioso incrocio di destini.En: Without realizing it, Luca and Giulia collided, in a curious crossing of destinies.It: "Oh, mi scusi!"En: "Oh, excuse me!"It: disse Luca, aiutando Giulia a ritrovare l'equilibrio.En: said Luca, helping Giulia regain her balance.It: "Non volevo disturbarti."En: "I didn't mean to disturb you."It: "Non c'è problema," rispose Giulia con un sorriso.En: "No problem," replied Giulia with a smile.It: "Stavo solo cercando di catturare la giusta prospettiva."En: "I was just trying to capture the right perspective."It: I due si ritrovarono a sorridere, scoprirono di condividere più di un semplice incontro fortuito.En: The two found themselves smiling, discovering they shared more than just a chance encounter.It: Parlarono delle loro passioni: Luca delle sue idee culinarie e Giulia delle sue ispirazioni fotografiche.En: They talked about their passions: Luca about his culinary ideas and Giulia about her photographic inspirations.It: Il tempo volò mentre condivisero aneddoti e sogni, circondati dall'energia del mercato.En: Time flew by as they shared anecdotes and dreams, surrounded by the energy of the market.It: Quando il sole iniziò a calare, Luca e Giulia lasciarono il Mercato Luminoso insieme.En: When the sun began to set, Luca and Giulia left the Mercato Luminoso together.It: Ognuno aveva trovato ciò che cercava: Luca le sue zucche, e Giulia uno scatto perfetto che avesse una storia dietro.En: Each had found what they were looking for: Luca his pumpkins, and Giulia a perfect shot that had a story behind it.It: Ma, ancora più importante, entrambi avevano trovato un inizio di amicizia che prometteva nuove avventure e collaborazioni future.En: But, more importantly, they both had found the beginning of a friendship that promised new adventures and future collaborations.It: Con il cuore leggero, Luca si sentiva ispirato, pronto a dare nuova vita ai suoi piatti con un tocco personale.En: With a light heart, Luca felt inspired, ready to give new life to his dishes with a personal touch.It: Giulia, d'altro canto, sapeva che la sua fotografia aveva ora una nuova prospettiva, arricchita dalla possibilità di un legame reale e significativo.En: Giulia, on the other hand, knew her photography now had a new perspective, enriched by the possibility of a real and meaningful connection.It: Entrambi si allontanarono con la promessa di rivedersi, portando con sé non solo i frutti delle loro ricerche, ma anche il dolce sapore di una nuova connessione umana.En: Both walked away with the promise of meeting again, carrying

Pendant des décennies, Pluton a été la neuvième planète de notre système solaire. Découverte en 1930 par l'astronome américain Clyde Tombaugh, elle figurait dans tous les manuels scolaires. Mais en 2006, coup de théâtre : l'Union astronomique internationale (UAI) décide de la rétrograder, et Pluton cesse officiellement d'être une planète. Pourquoi ?Tout part d'une définition. Jusqu'au début du XXIᵉ siècle, le terme « planète » n'était pas vraiment défini de façon rigoureuse. Les astronomes s'en tenaient surtout à l'usage. Mais les progrès de l'observation ont compliqué les choses. À partir des années 1990, on découvre dans la ceinture de Kuiper — une région glacée aux confins du système solaire — de nombreux corps célestes comparables à Pluton. Le plus marquant fut Éris, découvert en 2005, légèrement plus massif que Pluton. Si Pluton était une planète, fallait-il alors en ajouter des dizaines d'autres ?L'UAI a donc tranché. En 2006, elle adopte une définition précise d'une planète :1. Elle doit orbiter autour du Soleil.2. Elle doit être suffisamment massive pour prendre une forme sphérique, sous l'effet de sa gravité.3. Elle doit avoir « nettoyé » son orbite, c'est-à-dire être dominante et avoir éliminé les autres objets de taille comparable autour d'elle.Pluton remplit les deux premiers critères, mais pas le troisième. Son orbite est encombrée : elle croise celle de Neptune et partage son espace avec d'autres corps de la ceinture de Kuiper. Elle n'est donc pas « maîtresse » de son environnement. Résultat : Pluton perd son statut de planète.Depuis, elle est classée parmi les planètes naines, au même titre qu'Éris, Cérès ou Makémaké. Cela ne la rend pas moins intéressante, bien au contraire. En 2015, la sonde New Horizons a révélé un monde complexe, avec des montagnes de glace, une atmosphère fine et peut-être un océan sous sa surface.La controverse n'a pourtant pas disparu. De nombreux astronomes et une partie du public continuent de considérer Pluton comme une planète « de cœur ». Pour beaucoup, cette décision illustre la tension entre la rigueur scientifique et l'attachement populaire.En résumé, Pluton n'a pas quitté notre système solaire : elle y brille toujours, mais son titre a changé. Ce qui a disparu, ce sont nos certitudes, remplacées par une vision plus nuancée et plus riche de ce qu'est une planète. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover some of the most exciting discoveries and developments in the universe, including the detection of the brightest fast radio burst ever observed, the New Horizons spacecraft's record-setting hibernation, and an innovative method for generating oxygen in space.Brightest Fast Radio Burst DetectedAstronomers have identified what is being hailed as the brightest fast radio burst (FRB) ever recorded. Catalogued as FRB 2025 0316A, this extraordinary flash of energy was detected 130 million light years away in the spiral galaxy NGC 4141. The burst's unprecedented brightness and proximity provide scientists with a unique opportunity to study its origins and the environment surrounding it, potentially shedding light on the enigmatic sources of these fleeting cosmic phenomena.New Horizons Enters Record HibernationNASA's New Horizons spacecraft has officially begun a record-setting hibernation period as it journeys through the Kuiper Belt, now over 9.2 billion kilometres from Earth. This hibernation will last until June 2026, surpassing its previous record of 273 days. Despite being in hibernation, the spacecraft will continue to collect valuable data on charged particles and dust in the outer heliosphere, which will be transmitted back to Earth upon reactivation.Revolutionary Oxygen Generation in SpaceIn a significant advancement for future space missions, scientists have developed a new method for generating oxygen in space using neodymium magnets to enhance the electrolysis process. This innovative approach simplifies the extraction of oxygen bubbles from water, potentially replacing complex systems currently used in microgravity environments. By leveraging magnetic forces, this technique could improve the efficiency and reliability of oxygen production for astronauts.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical Journal Lettershttps://iopscience.iop.org/journal/2041-8205NASAhttps://www.nasa.gov/Nature Chemistryhttps://www.nature.com/nchem/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Brightest Fast Radio Burst DetectedNew Horizons Enters Record HibernationRevolutionary Oxygen Generation in Space
