Union Pacific’s $88 billion bid for Norfolk Southern could usher in a new era for the North American railroad industry if the companies can show the Surface Transportation Board that the deal will enhance competition and is in the public interest. In this Talking Transports podcast, Tony Hatch, founder and president of ABH Consulting, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst, to share his insights about the merits and challenges of a possible merger between the two large railroads. UP and NS will need to make their case to all stakeholders, which include shippers, workers, Norfolk shareholders and regulators, who could be the most difficult to persuade. The downstream effect of a deal or perceived likelihood of regulatory approval could lead to further consolidation among Class I carriers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

OpenAI heeft de nieuwe generatie GPT-5 na maanden vertraging gelanceerd. Naast het beantwoorden van vragen, gaat ChatGPT steeds meer taken uitvoeren en fungeren als AI-agent. GPT-5 is voor iedereen gratis te gebruiken. Rosanne Peters vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Behalve dat GPT-5 slimmer is, beter kan redeneren en op zakelijk gebied beter kan presteren, zou ook de mogelijkheid tot softwareontwikkeling flink verbeterd moeten zijn. Deskundigen vragen zich af of de sprong van GPT-4 naar GPT-5 wel echt zo groot is als OpenAI beweert. Verder in deze Tech Update: Microsoft maakt GPT-5 beschikbaar in enkele van hun producten Wifi in de trein doet het nog altijd slecht, maar kost NS toch miljoenen euro's See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Streamen, downloaden of filmpjes kijken. Voor 'WiFi in de trein' van NS is het allemaal teveel gevraagd. "Daar is het niet voor bedoelt", zegt NS-woordvoerder Oscar van Elferen tegen de Telegraaf. Volgens hem kost het netwerk NS "enkele miljoenen per jaar". Zo veel? Hoe zit dat? En waarom is het lastig om het weg te bezuinigen?

De alternatieve OV-kaart is een flink hoofdpijndossier geworden voor de NS. Het inchecken met een digitale bankpas is namelijk kwetsbaar voor fraude. Sinds deze zomer moet het bedrijf achter OVpay – Translink – zelfs betaalpassen van Revolut, Paysafe en Vivid Money blokkeren om te voorkomen dat reizigers een truc uithalen en zo kunnen reizen zonder ooit te betalen. We bespreken met Jort Siemes hoe deze OV-fraude werkt en wat dat voor gevolgen heeft voor andere reizigers. Lees: Wegwerpkaarten geblokkeerd na fraude bij NS Jongeren hebben helemaal niks met ‘pensioen’. Het is nog ver van hun bed en ze hebben wel wat anders aan hun hoofd, zoals woonruimte zoeken. Om ze toch bewust te maken van deze belangrijke arbeidsvoorwaarde, zetten ze sociale media en influencers in. Hoe ze dat doen en of een het succes is, hoor je van pensioenredacteur Maaike Noordhuis.

Welcome to a special series of Art Pays Me interviews with the winners of the 2024 Creative Nova Scotia Awards. Presented annually by Arts Nova Scotia and the Creative Nova Scotia Leadership Council, these awards celebrate artistic excellence across Mi'kma'ki. On this episode I spoke with Emerging Artist Award recipient, Lux Gow-Habrich (星尘), a multidisciplinary visual artist, facilitator and support worker of mixed second-generation Chinese and German heritage, practicing between Tkarón:to (Toronto, ON) and Kjipuktuk (Halifax, NS). They blend gestural, craft and creative community practices to redefine our understanding of art and cultural praxis as sacred remedial forces that can deeply transform and mend systems and relationships. Lux's interest in the body as archive, cultural objects and commemorative practices weave together complex diasporic experiences of loss and belonging, and embodied hybridization in blood and spirit - to unearth individual and collective untold stories and unspoken legacies of disabled, queer grief and empowerment. Committed to developing inclusive creative platforms, and reimagining cultural futures, Lux's practice is an expression rooted in relational and access dreaming. This special episode would not be possible without the support of Arts Nova Scotia and the Creative Nova Scotia Leadership Council, and the fantastic production work of Heist and Keke Beatz.

1945-2025: 80 Jahre nach Kriegsende bietet die Veranstaltung die Gelegenheit zur Reflexion über die Enteignungen und damit verbundenen Umwälzungen in der Sowjetischen Besatzungszone (SBZ). Im Mittelpunkt steht die Enteignungspolitik der SMAD und die damit verbundenen Kulturgutverluste und der Kulturgutentzug. Unter der Parole „Junkerland in Bauernhand“ fanden ab September 1945 Enteignungen von Großgrundbesitzern statt. Wer mehr als 100 Hektar besaß, musste sein Land ohne Entschädigung abgeben. Die Besitzer wurden verfolgt und vertrieben. Der Besitz wurde sequestriert und zum Teil geplündert. Insgesamt waren rund 7.000 Landbesitzer betroffen. „NS- und Kriegsverbrecher“ wurden unabhängig vom Umfang ihres Landbesitzes enteignet. Die Vorwürfe waren teilweise begründet, oft unbegründet; sie wurden jedoch in keinem Fall gerichtlich überprüft. Auf dem Fachtag wollen wir u.a. folgende Fragen diskutieren: Wie wurden diese Maßnahmen gerechtfertigt und legitimiert? Welche langfristigen gesellschaftlichen, wirtschaftlichen und kulturellen Folgen lassen sich bis heute feststellen? Was bedeutet das in Bezug auf Unrechtskontexte und Entschädigungen? Welche Erfahrungen gibt es bei Verlust und dem Versuch der Wiedergewinnung von enteignetem Land- und Privatbesitz, Bauwerken, Möbel, Gartenkunst und Archivalien? Welche Strategien gibt es bei Sammlungen und Museen im Umgang mit enteigneten Objekten? Von welchen Debatten und Diskussionen wird das Thema seit 1990 begleitet? 
Der Fachtag bündelt Fragestellungen und bietet einen Diskussionsraum über die historischen, wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und erinnerungskulturellen Entwicklungen der vergangenen 80 Jahre.

Spraakmaker is vandaag Frans Pollux. In het Mediaforum zijn Rennie Rijpma en Marc Veeningen te gast. Bij Stand.nl de stelling: 'Een wapenstok voor NS-beveiligers lost niks op.' In het tweede uur gaan we het hebben over Mexicaanse drugskartels en de voorstelling Het geluk van Limburg.

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   In This Episode: It's not luck. It's not magic. Running a successful retail shop takes purpose, planning, and showing up as your best self. In this inspiring episode, I'm sharing a powerful reminder from one of my favorite authors, Jon Acuff:  “Awesome is never accidental.” Let's talk about how you can intentionally create a business that feels great for you and your customers—on purpose, not by chance. We don't want average businesses or lives: strive for AWESOME.   Tips on Raising Your Retail Standards: “Awesome” isn't just luck. Success is built with intention. Stop saying “She's so lucky” and ask what she is doing differently. Be an intentional leader. Plan 90 days ahead like a CEO. Learn new skills to grow your shop and confidence. Make business decisions that align with your personal and brand values. Level up your customer's experience. 81% of people will leave your store if they think someone else offers a better experience. Inconsistent service can drive even loyal customers away. Set clear store standards: music, smell, cleanliness, staff behavior—it all matters.   Your Next Steps: Write down the quote: Awesome is never accidental. Pick one small area in your business and raise the bar. Ask yourself: how can I be more awesome today?   Related podcasts we think you'll like:  Episode 136: Annual Planning that Fills Your Life Buckets Episode 143: How to Plan and Host Successful Events in Your Retail Shop Episode 144: How to Create a Customer Journey Map About your host, Wendy Batten In case we haven't met yet, I'm Wendy, a small business coach and founder of the Retailer's Inner Circle, where I help other independent shop owners learn how to gain the right business skillsets to see more profits, paychecks, and joy as they navigate running their retail business.  Through online classes, business coaching programs, speaking, and a top-ranked podcast, I've helped hundreds of retailers around the globe reclaim their dream and see the success they want from their beautiful shops.

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   In This Episode: I want you to ask yourself this question: “Why wouldn't I be checking in mid-year with my retail business? Is there something I am avoiding? Am I making excuses like I'm ‘too busy'?” (Your words, not mine!)  As a retail coach, it's my job to not only teach you the steps you need to take to do a midyear check-in in your retail business but also encourage you to get it done. Trust me: this will make a huge difference in your mindset and in how you run your beautiful business.  In this episode I'm walking brick and mortar retail shop owners through a simple yet powerful midyear retail planning process to stay on track for profitability and growth. You'll learn what you need to look at during the review, how to adjust business goals, and how to build a profit plan to keep you flexible yet focused for the rest of the year. (Inner Circle members have access to a quarterly retail planning checklist to review your progress!) Whether you've hit your targets or need to pivot, this actionable framework will help you identify “creep” in your operations, celebrate your wins, and map out the next six months with confidence. “Don't plan for ‘fine.' Plan for awesome. Your business deserves more than mediocre.” - Wendy Batten Timestamped Topics: 03:00 – Flexibility vs. Excuses: Adjusting Your Goals 05:00 – Spotting and Reining in “Creep” 07:00 – Setting Real Profit Planning Numbers 09:00 – Month-by-Month Financial & Inventory Review 12:00 – Profitability Check: Are You Pushing String? 13:00 – Celebrating Achievements & Acknowledging Progress Key Takeaways to Help with Your Midyear Planning Check In: Use a quarterly retail planning checklist to audit goals, revenue, and operations (Inner Circle members: We have one in the mid-year planning masterclass!) Identify and correct “creep” in profits, inventory, team standards, and operations. Use a profit plan template and plug in your numbers, margins, and expenses. This will help you to make sure you are on track to meet your financial goals. (This is a GAME CHANGER and we have one in the Profit Planning Micro-Masterclass for Inner Circle members.) Conduct honest month-by-month reviews of P&L, balance sheet, and personal workload. Always celebrate wins—acknowledging progress fuels motivation for the next quarter.   Your Next Steps: First of all, thank you so much for listening.

With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   In This Episode: Running a retail business isn't just about WHAT you sell—it's about WHO you bringing together in your retail store.  In this heartwarming and wisdom-filled episode, Cadence Kidwell of Fuzzy Goat (a yarn store in Thomasville, Georgia) shares how she's built a thriving business rooted in connection, creativity, and community support. Whether you're a seasoned retailer or just starting out, Cadence's story will inspire you to think big, act bravely, and build something meaningful. Key Takeaways from a Retail Yarn Store Owner: Cadence shares her inspirational journey from university teacher to yarn shop owner Why community is the most important product she sells How she built a strong, trusted team that loves the store like it's their own Creative marketing tools she swears by (like countdowns and story-driven videos) How events like Local Yarn Shop Day bring huge in-store traffic Why offering benefits like retirement plans helps retain staff The importance of mentorship, coaching, and always learning something new “We're not just selling yarn. We are selling connection and whimsy.” - Cadence Kidwell About Cadence and Fuzzy Goat Prior to opening Fuzzy Goat, Cadence Kidwell obtained a PhD in Creative Writing and designed a certificate program for students to develop cultural competencies while working at Florida State University. She was happy with that career but began dreaming of her own shop. She decided that she could either steady-on into the last decade of university life or she could join the makers' life by building a business from a rough-worn building & filling it with beautiful yarns made by strong women.    Luckily for Thomasville (and the rest of us) she chose the latter. Fuzzy Goat is truly an independent business with over 90% of our merchandise created by other independent women makers. Fuzzy Goat creates a space where conversation across generations and life experiences is valued and sought after.   Follow along with Cadence and Fuzzy Goat here: Website | Instagram | Facebook Use code SHOPTALK to get 11% off your order through Fuzzy Goat's website!

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   In This Episode: Let's make this summer your most joyful and productive yet, without the burnout. In this episode, I'm sharing how to embrace a "Summer of Ease" while still keeping your retail business humming along behind the scenes. Whether you're a brick-and-mortar owner in peak tourist season or experiencing a slower Q3, this one's for you. We're trading hustle for harmony by leaning into three core pillars: (1) Fun (yes, you need it!), (2) Rest (not a reward, but part of your job), and (3) Momentum (because Q4 is coming and we need to be ready!) How to Create Ease This Summer: Schedule your calendar and your team's through September Pre-plan promotions, social content, and email marketing Reuse great content from last year (no one remembers your July 2023 meme, it's fine) Humanize your brand with softer summer content (think beach reads and mojito recipes) Hand off live sales, store tours, or event planning to your team or guest hosts Let go of the guilt and get off your phone and POS app while you're away It's time to drop the “shoulds,” my friend. Let's get to work. Until next week, cheers to joy, freedom, and profits. “Watching your POS like a hawk is not making things sell faster.” -Wendy Batten Your Next Steps Get out your calendar and do some planning!

How can your understanding of Myers-Briggs add to your Working Genius? In episode 88 of the Working Genius Podcast, Pat and Cody dive into the relationship between Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and the Six Types of Working Genius. They explore how MBTI describes who you are (the noun), while Working Genius describes what you do best (the verb). Through examples and insights, they show how combining both tools can improve self-awareness, team collaboration, and career decisions.Topics explored in this episode: (00:40) Nouns vs. Verbs: The Core Difference* MBTI describes your personality preferences—the "noun" of who you are.* Working Genius identifies the activities you love—the "verb" of what you do.(04:30) A Crash Course in MBTI* The four MBTI dimensions: E/I, N/S, T/F, and J/P.* How these traits affect decision-making and communication.(7:31) No Overlap, But Total Alignment* Working Genius and MBTI have no direct correlation—and that's a strength.* Personal anecdotes show how people with the same MBTI have different Working Geniuses.* The pairing of both tools unlocks richer insight into how someone works and thrives.(18:59) Real Examples* Stories from The Table Group that contrast MBTI and Working Genius. .(24:46) Advanced Nuance and Practical Use* The concept of a "secondary MBTI type."This episode of The Working Genius Podcast with Patrick Lencioni is brought to you by The Table Group: https://www.tablegroup.com.
