RJM's Ron Menelli: The MIDI Wizard Behind the Pros' Pedalboards Description Ron Menelli from RJM Music joins Blake Wyland to tell the long, nerdy, wildly practical story behind one of the most essential “behind the curtain” brands in modern guitar rigs. Ron walks through his early days building circuits from Radio Shack notebooks, studying electrical engineering and computer science, and eventually bailing on the corporate telecom world to build something of his own. That leap leads to RJM's first big breakthrough: the AmpGizmo, a solution that brought MIDI control to the era of giant channel-switching amps with giant multi-button footswitches. From there, Ron explains how RJM evolved from amp control into full rig command centers, including the RG16 and the Mastermind ecosystem, and why products like the PBC-6X became the best-selling “brain” for players who want one button to handle loops, pedal order, and MIDI commands in a single move. You also get a real talk segment on the business side: what it's like building gear for a small, pro-focused niche (where your customers are the artists everyone else watches), why Ron intentionally keeps RJM small, and what he'd tell anyone trying to start a pedal or guitar company today. Plus: a deep dive into MIDI 2.0, why it's taking forever, and why the promise of “plug and play” control could finally make MIDI less terrifying for normal humans. Then we wrap with the essentials: favorite Boss pedals (OD-1 love), a Rush-inspired tap-dance origin story… and Chicago thin-crust pizza supremacy.

Carolyn Adriano died from an accidental drug overdose in May of this year, but in reality it was Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein's abuse that led to her death. After suffering years of abuse at the hands of Maxwell and Epstein, Carolyn was "aged out" because she hit the age of 18 and from there things continued to spiral. Experiencing trauma can have profound and lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. Some people who suffer trauma turn to drugs as a coping mechanism, seeking relief from the intense psychological pain and distress that trauma can bring. This summary explores the complex relationship between trauma and substance abuse, shedding light on the factors that drive individuals to self-medicate with drugs.Trauma, whether caused by violence, accidents, natural disasters, or other distressing events, can lead to feelings of helplessness, anxiety, depression, and flashbacks. These emotional responses can be overwhelming, and some individuals may resort to substance abuse as a way to numb their pain and temporarily escape from the traumatic memories.Several key factors contribute to the connection between trauma and drug use:Emotional Relief: Drugs like alcohol, opioids, or stimulants can temporarily alleviate feelings of sadness, fear, and anxiety. Individuals may use drugs to experience emotional relief, even if it's temporary.Self-Medication: Some people turn to drugs as a form of self-medication to cope with their symptoms. They may not have access to or awareness of healthier coping strategies, such as therapy or support groups.Escapism: The effects of certain drugs can create a sense of detachment from reality, allowing those who have experienced trauma to temporarily escape from painful memories and emotions.Peer Pressure: Social environments where drug use is prevalent can encourage individuals to try substances, especially if they are already struggling with the aftermath of trauma. This can lead to a cycle of drug abuse as a means of fitting in or seeking connection.Biological Factors: Trauma can affect brain chemistry and increase the vulnerability to addiction. It can lead to changes in the reward system of the brain, making individuals more susceptible to substance abuse.Risk of Re-traumatization: Engaging in risky behaviors associated with substance abuse can increase the risk of re-traumatization, perpetuating a cycle of trauma and addiction.(commercial at 7:53)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ghislaine Maxwell sex trafficking victim OD'd but really it was murder | Toronto SunBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
What if the biggest obstacle in your organization isn't resistance — but thinking? In this episode, Bob 'n Joyce explore why smart leaders keep applying logical, linear solutions to problems that require something different. Drawing on the work of Edward de Bono and his ideas on lateral thinking, we examine why better analysis doesn't always produce better outcomes. True creativity — the kind that shifts culture and unlocks strategy — happens when leaders deliberately disrupt their own patterns of thought. That doesn't come naturally. It takes structure, intention, and often a skilled OD practitioner willing to redirect the conversation sideways. We share practical ways to apply these concepts in your organization, including how to: • Interrupt entrenched thinking • Expand options before narrowing them • Facilitate conversations that create possibility instead of reinforcing positions If you're an OD professional or executive leader, this conversation may challenge how you approach your next strategic discussion. Sometimes progress doesn't require more effort. It requires a different question.
In this episode, we dive into the critical concept of schedule health and how it drives strategic growth, especially when adding associates. We explore how data-driven insights help us make confident, informed decisions that support sustainable scaling for our practices.

„Paní kastelánce jsem věnoval svoje cédéčko s tím, ať si to poslechne, že bych si na hradě rád udělal koncert. Od té doby jsem se vracel stále častěji,“ říká hudebník, textař, skladatel, ale také zakladatel, autor a hybatel projektu Landštejnské legendy Josef Gušlbauer.
Mamy w kraju problem z przywództwem. Duży pałac, a w zasadzie duży pajac naparza się z małym pajacem. Duży Pajac snuzuje i wetuje na zmianę, Mały Pajac sprzedaje Polskę Niemcom, mówili w telewizji, którą prowadzą zacięte twarze. Hipokryta Błaszczak dymi jak zepsuta kotłownia na wszystkie tematy. I tak dalej. Piorą się po socialach jak oszalali. Niby w ten sposób kontynuujemy starą Polską tradycję, którą zapoczątkował średniowieczny książę Tworzyspór II Nieogar. Brak nam w Polsce przywódcy z prawdziwego zdarzenia. Tutaj potrzeba jednej zdecydowanej osoby, która by przyszła i powiedziała: ma być tak, tak i tak. I ... mnie obchodzi. Od razu zapanowałby porządek. Dlaczego zatem nie skorzystać z dobrej tradycji. Taką odpowiedzialną osobą w naszej historii był książę Bolesław Rękonogi. Bolesław Rękonogi piękna postać, wspaniały władca, aż szkoda, że nie istniał..

Na ráno 24. februára 2022 zabudne asi len málokto. Obavy, že Rusko napadne Ukrajinu, sa naplnili. Armáda prišla z Ruska, obsadených ukrajinských území aj z Bieloruska. Od vtedy čelia Ukrajinci a Ukrajinky tisícom útokov a za cenu veľkých strát stále odolávajú. Ruský postup je pomalý, no Vladimir Putin ešte nie je vyčerpaný natoľko, aby to vzdal. No a Slovensko? To si pre Ukrajincov pripravilo špeciálny dar k výročiu. Nikola Šuliková Bajánová sa o téme rozpráva s expertkou na Ukrajinu a výskumníčkou think-tanku Európska rada pre zahraničné vzťahy Janou Kobzovou. Zdroje zvukov: BBC, YouTube/SMER-SD Odporúčanie: Stále platí, že Ukrajinci potrebujú aj našu pomoc. Zbierok, cez ktoré tak vieme urobiť, je niekoľko a objavujú sa aj nové. Mojím odporúčaním preto dnes je, aby sme pokračovali vo finančnej podpore tých, ktorí bojujú aj za našu slobodu. Na to, prosím, nezabúdajme. – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na sme.sk/podcasty – Odoberajte aj audio verziu denného newslettra SME.sk s najdôležitejšími správami na sme.sk/brifingSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ciało słyszy zawsze, nawet gdy mózg filtruje tło. A hałas to nie kwestia bólu w uszach, ale coś co wywołuje wyrzuty hormonów stresu. One kumulują się w organizmie, prowadząc do skoku poziomu cukru czy wzrostu trójglicerydów. To ingerencja w ludzką biologię, która zachodzi „wbrew ciału”, niezależnie od tego, czy subiektywnie czujemy hałas, czy nie.Kawa dla Miłki: https://buycoffee.to/dziennik.zmian"Nie hałasuj, miła, nie hałasuj" :) - parafrazując piosenkę Marka Grechuty - to hasło, które lubię. A przecież nierzadko zasypiamy z telefonem pod poduszką, ignorujemy szum klimatyzatora, przyzwyczajamy się do huku ulicy. Mówimy: 'ja już tego nie słyszę'. A ciało słyszy zawsze. Słyszy hormonami stresu, skokiem cukru i drganiem układu nerwowego.W tej rozmowie jest hałas, jest autorskie spojrzenie na temat, jest Jolanta Milewska, specjalistka od szkodliwych czynników, a to wszystko ma przypominać, że hałas to nie tylko decybele, to ingerencja w ludzką biologię. Od zegara, który tyka w nocy zbyt głośno, po infradźwięki, których nie rejestruje ucho, ale czuje błędnik. Zapraszam do sprawdzenia dlaczego warto czasem 'nie hałasować' – dla własnego zdrowia
Od začátku rozsáhlé ruské invaze dnes uplynuly čtyři roky. Jen přímé škody na Ukrajině dosáhly skoro 200 miliard dolarů, silně přitom byla postižena energetika a byty. Civilisté by se neobešli bez humanitární pomoci, zejména dodávek generátorů. Hostem výroční Zbytečné války je proto regionální ředitel Člověka v tísni pro Východní partnerství Petr Drbohlav. Přímo z Ukrajiny se připojil i ředitel Člověka v tísni Šimon Pánek.
Od ruskega napada in zaostritve vojne v Ukrajini v teh dneh minevajo štiri leta. Rusija tudi v obdobju druge svetovne vojne ni bila tako dolgo vpletena v oboroženi konflikt. Kljub pogajanjem ni videti, da bi bil mir kaj bližje, še naprej se povečuje število žrtev na obeh straneh, nadaljujejo se tudi napadi na civilno infrastrukturo. O možnostih za zbližanje stališč, iskrenosti mirovnih pogajanj, predvsem pa o stanju duha v obeh državah bomo spregovorili v tokratnem Studiu ob 17.00. Gostje: dr. Boštjan Udovič, politolog, FDV Univerze v Ljubljani; Miha Lampreht, nekdanji dopisnik iz Moskve; dr. Simon Malmenvall, rusist, zgodovinar in teolog; Helena Ponudič, dopisnica RTV Slovenija iz Moskve.
Od pádu režimu syrského diktátora Asada uplynul rok a dva měsíce. Země je svobodnější než dříve, ale neplatí to pro všechny. Jednou ze skupin, která se cítí ohroženější než dříve, jsou příslušnice alávitské menšiny.
Dnes je to o tom, kto v tejto vojne dlhšie vydrží a preto má podpora Ukrajiny zmysel. Pre Európu je najvýhodnejšie pomôcť Ukrajine a udržať tým ruského agresora čo najďalej od našich hraníc, hovorí pri príležitosti 4. výročia ruskej agresie analytik Andrej Žiarovský. Ako sa zmenila tvár vojny, ako zmenila nás samotných a máme sa báť i jadrového zúčtovania? „Nikto nie je ostrovom samým pre seba, každý je kusom pevniny, súčasťou celku. Smrť každého človeka umenšuje mňa, lebo som súčasťou ľudstva; a preto sa nikdy nepýtaj, komu zvonia do hrobu; zvonia tebe.“Tieto známe slová alžbetínskeho básnika Johna Donna v predvečer štvrtého výročia ruskej agresie na Ukrajine, nadobúdajú dnes desivo hmatateľný a až neuveriteľne krvavý rozmer.Od chvíle, kedy prvé ruské rakety dopadli na spiace ukrajinské mestá, uplynuli presne 4 roky. Je to 208 týždňov, 1 461 dní alebo viac ako 35 000 hodín. Počas každej jednej z nich sa náš svet postupne - kúsok po kúsku, život po živote, zmenšoval o obete, ktoré umreli v troskách Mariupola, v pivniciach Buče či v uliciach Irpiňa.Za každou jednou minútou tohto času je nejaká konkrétne ľudská tragédia - nevinných detí, bezbranných žien či nevládnych starcov ak stareniek, ktorých osudy - či dokonca i umieranie, sledujeme v až hrozivo chladne presnom HD rozlíšení. Deň čo deň, už po celé štyri roky. Sme svedkami konfliktu, ktorý sa nás bytostne dotýka - a to nielen jeho až bezprostrednou blízkosťou, ale aj tým, ako radikálne predefinoval samotné metódy i stratégie vojny.Tradičné mohutné tankové bitky či hrozivé roje bombardovacích zväzov - alebo zvuky delestreleckej bubnovej paľby vystriedali počítačové algoritmy, autonómne drony s umelou inteligenciou ako i neviditeľný elektronický boj, ktorý paralyzuje celé mestá či regióny. Vojna sa tak presunula zo zákopov priamo na naše obrazovky, kde sa krvavé a kruté zabíjanie stalo interaktívnym a všadeprítomným obsahom sociálnych sietí. Smrť, krv, krutosť, bolesť i zabíjanie tak môžeme sledovať priamo z pohodlia našich bezpečných obývačiek. Akoby to nebolo o nás.Na Ukrajine sme sa akoby vrátili k zákopom prvej svetovej vojny, vojna sa transformovala na opotrebovávací konflikt, kde rozhoduje ako ekonomika, tak i vôľa k víťazstvu. Na rozdiel od zákopov Verdunu však tento krvavý konflikt dnes môžeme sledovať doslova v priamom prenose. Ukrajinský konflikt sa zmenil na opotrebovávajúcu vojnu, zvíťazí silnejšia ekonomika, ale najmä to, kto bude mať silnejšiu vôľu, hovorí analytik Andrej Žiarovský.O tom, ako sa v celom tomto digitálnom pekle zmenila tvár moderného boja, čo to spravilo s našim vnímaním vojny, ale aj o tom, ako zásadne sa posunul vývoj moderných zbraní - ako aj taktík a stratégií vedenia vojny, budeme hovoriť s analytikom Andrejom Žiarovským. Stal sa dron kráľom bojiska a máme sa báť jadrovej “mŕtvej ruky”?Sledujete Ráno Nahlas, pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.

What's up everyone and welcome to The Corporate Bartender!If you've been hanging around this bar for a while, you know this has never just been a podcast — it's been a room. A room where HR nerds, L&D folks, consultants, and people leaders, pull up a stool and actually talk about what's going on at work.And today? We're officially kicking off the TCB relaunch!Year Six. New energy. Same soul.We break down what's changing — a more intentional cadence, thoughtfully curated Guest Bartenders, a clearer focus on high-signal conversations — and what is absolutely not changing: the Crew, the candor, and the community-first vibe.We even wrote a TCB Crew Charter. That's right. We put the vibe in writing.And then we opened it up to the room.The conversation was honest, funny, thoughtful — and a really strong reminder that leadership is getting more complex, and nobody wants to figure it out alone.Oh, and don't worry — Last Call is alive and well. The internet still gets weird, the humans still get good, and the cocktails still get…distributed.Let's GO!TCB Layout:0:00 - Show Open & Intro1:14 - Titles1:47 - Kickoff 8:23 - Agenda11:13 - What's Changing/Not Changing24:32 - Crew Conversation57:28 - Wrap & CloseEvent Mentioned: https://rmps.starchapter.com/meetinginfo.php?id=29&ts=1760057155Event Mentioned: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/disrupthr-denver-190-tickets-1980129360220Join our community!https://the-corporate-bartender.mn.co/Theme Music by Hooksounds.comGood Feels Stories Copyright Paramount/CBS

Questions? Thoughts? Send a Text to The Optometry Money Podcast! We'll answer your question on the show.As an optometrist—especially a practice owner—you face real liability exposure from both your professional work and your business. So how well are your retirement accounts and investments actually protected if something goes wrong? In this episode, we walk through the different layers of liability protection available to ODs and dive into exactly which retirement and investment accounts are shielded from creditors, which ones aren't, and where the common gaps and misconceptions are.What You'll LearnFour common layers of liability protection available to optometrists (entities, insurance, titling, and federal/state law)Why umbrella insurance is one of the most common gaps in OD insurance planningHow ERISA law protects 401(k) and cash balance plans—and why it's the gold standardWhy solo 401(k) plans do NOT carry the same ERISA protection (a common misconception)How SEP IRAs and SIMPLE IRAs fall short on liability protection compared to full 401(k) plansHow Traditional and Roth IRAs are protected in bankruptcy (and the current dollar limit)What happens to liability protection when you roll a 401(k) into an IRA—and a best practice for keeping those dollars separateHow HSAs, taxable brokerage accounts, and 529 plans are (or aren't) protectedSteps ODs should take now to review their liability exposureKey TakeawayNot all retirement accounts are created equal when it comes to liability protection. ERISA-covered plans like 401(k)s and cash balance plans offer the strongest, unlimited federal protection—making maxing those contributions both a tax strategy and a liability strategy. But accounts like solo 401(k)s, SIMPLE IRAs, and traditional/Roth IRAs don't carry that same blanket protection, and the gaps are highly state-dependent. Understanding where your dollars sit and how they're protected is an important part of your overall financial plan.ResourcesSubmit your questions for upcoming Listener Q&A episodes: OptometryWealth.com/podcastquestionReach out: podcast@optometrywealth.comWant a more proactive approach to your planning?You can schedule a no-commitment introductory call to discuss what's on your mind financially and learn how we help optometrists navigate those same decisions nationwide.

Že Babiš, uniklý z vyděračské smyčky, konečně přitvrdí vůči Motoristům a SPD. A že by je dokonce mohl poslat k vodě a vyjednat si toleranci menšinové vlády u části opozice.Všechny díly podcastu Názory a argumenty můžete pohodlně poslouchat v mobilní aplikaci mujRozhlas pro Android a iOS nebo na webu mujRozhlas.cz.

In this episode of The Learning & Development Podcast, David James is joined by Geraldine Murphy to explore how learning can move from a reactive service to a strategic driver of business impact. Geraldine shares how she built the foundations for transformation - introducing governance, process, and consistency - and shifted the culture from chasing “shiny new things” to making smarter decisions about building, borrowing, buying, or automating learning. She reflects on influencing stakeholders, the power of storytelling in driving change and the personal skills that mattered most throughout the journey. This conversation is a guide for L&D professionals ready to tackle entrenched challenges, start making change even without formal permission and step confidently into a more strategic, impactful role. Take your L&D to the next level Take advantage of thousands of hours of analysis. Hundreds of conversations with industry innovators and 25+ years of hands-on global L&D leadership. It's all distilled into one framework to help you level up L&D. Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS Passion isn't enough; without structure, governance and the right tools, L&D effort stays local and inefficient. Data‑driven storytelling unlocks investment and permission to transform. Governance, clear promises to the business, and knowing when to say “no” are central to leading large‑scale change. L&D must link learning directly to productivity and business performance to escape being seen as simply a “nice to have.” BEST MOMENTS “We weren't doing technology for technology's sake.” “If your people aren't growing, then the business is not growing.” “When you've got a vision to elevate L&D to be business savvy, accountable and impactful, it's not so difficult to bring senior stakeholders on board to help to shape that.” “For the first time, we had one platform to rule them all.” Geraldine Murphy Bio Geraldine Murphy is an experienced Learning & Development leader, most recently Global Learning Experience Manager at HEINEKEN. In this role, she managed a broad global portfolio of learning tools and processes and worked with 85 decentralised learning teams to support the delivery of L&D for more than 90,000 employees worldwide. Alongside this, she served as a Global DEI Ambassador, contributing to the organisation's diversity, equity, and inclusion agenda. Geraldine began her career in education following her teacher training in 2009 and has since worked across further and higher education, publishing, and technology. Her work includes leading learning design for HE partnership programmes at a FTSE 100 publisher and consulting with organisations such as HSBC University (Global), FourthRev, Aula, Scribbr, Jisc and the University of Cambridge. She also sits on the advisory boards for SAP SuccessFactors and LinkedIn Learning.

In this episode, Marc Bloomenstein, OD, FAAO, talks with Mitch Ibach, OD, FAAO, who practices at Vance Thompson Vision, in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, an OD-MD tertiary referral center. The pair opened the conversation with what's new and exciting in patient care, including a newly-approved presbyopia combination drop, carbachol and brimonidine tartrate (Yuvezzi, Tenpoint Pharmaceuticals). Dr. Ibach then shared a few developments coming out of Vance Thompson, including an ocular IOP-adjusting pump for significant glaucomatous disease and the benefits of cultured endothelial cells for Fuchs dystrophy.
If your leadership team defines culture by your values statement, engagement scores, or what you wish were true — you don't know your culture. You're describing your aspirations. In this episode, Bob 'n Joyce challenge leaders and OD practitioners to stop treating culture like a slogan and start treating it like a system. Using a disciplined lateral thinking methodology, they show how to uncover what really drives behavior — the unwritten rules, the workarounds, the quiet power dynamics, and the habits that get rewarded and repeated. Not the culture on the wall. The culture in motion. Why does this matter? Because culture determines how decisions actually get made. It shapes who advances, what gets funded, what gets tolerated, and what quietly dies. Strategy doesn't fail because it's flawed. It fails because culture wins. Lateral thinking offers an indirect, disruptive way to see your organization as it actually operates — not as you've convinced yourself it does. And once you can see it clearly, you can lead it intentionally. Because whether you define it or not, your culture is defining you.
Od konce pandemie covidu-19 připravuje think-tank Globsec žebříček připravenosti zdravotnických systémů v Evropě. Česko se v něm sice drží až v druhé polovině, patří ale mezi nejlepší země střední a východní Evropy. Proč to tak je a co vlastně žebříček sleduje, na to se Jana Karasová ptala jednoho z autorů žebříčku Martina Smatany.

Nahradia chatboti priateľstvo či aj romantické vzťahy a aj sex? Kam až chceme pustiť umelú inteligenciu, kde je jej miesto a dokážeme ešte mať AI pod kontrolou? Vieme, čo od umelej inteligencie chceme a otázka otázok: Dokážeme ju v prípade - že nám prerastie cez hlavu, vôbec vypnúť? AI a jej etické dilemy s filozofkou Danielou Vacek.Dobrý sluha, no zlý pán. I tak by sa dala označiť AI – teda Umelá inteligencia, ktorej čoraz masovejšie nasadenie, ako i priam rýchlo rastúca chytrosť či neuveriteľná schopnosť učiť sa, zásadne mení svet okolo nás. Éra AI však prináša i veľmi veľa veľmi zásadných etických otázok a problémov.Od prípadov, v ktorých ktorých chatboty prakticky dohnali používateľov k samovražde - ako boli kauzy belgickej Elizy či floridskej Dany až po hrozbu prakticky nerozoznateľných deepfaekov. Témou sú však aj otázky právnej subjektivity - a teda i zodpovednosti AI, spôsoby odfiltrovania rôznych predsudkov pri procese učenia sa umelej inteligencie, masívny zber dát bez nášho súhlasu, ale aj téma vytvárania pocitu falošnej “ľudskej” emocionality.Cieľom nie je naučiť AI myslieť, ale vyvinúť nástoj, ktorý nám vie uľahčiť niektoré činnosti - a teda i život. To by mal byť cieľ v oblasti AI. Obsesia všeobecnou Umelou inteligenciou, ktorá by mala dosiahnuť- či dokonca presiahnuť človeka, nie je dobrým cieľom a nie je to ani eticky obhájiteľné, tvrdí filozofka Daniala Vacek. Podľa nej je chybou umiestňovať AI do rolí, ktoré jej vôbec neprináležia - ako napríklad úloha terapeutov či učiteľov, tvrdí. Navyše, podľa nej by sme mali – ako spoločnosť, žiadať od tvorcov AI oveľa viac zodpovednosti k rolám, ktoré AI dnes zastupuje.Vážnou témou sú i veľmi zásadné zmeny na trhu práce - a nahrádzanie celých segmentov ľudskej práce, environmentálne dopady a napokon nesmie chýbať ani téma tém - teda možná hrozba samotnej straty kontroly nad Umelou inteligenciou. Sledujete Ráno Nahlas, dnes s filozofkou z Filozofického ústavu SAV Danielou Vacek. Pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský. Dovidenia v lepších časoch.

Jane's Addiction's Dave Navarro was only 15 years old when his mother was brutally murdered in her apartment by her ex-boyfriend. The killer escaped, and for eight long years eluded capture. During those years, Dave Navarro couldn't shake the pain of his mother's death or the fear of knowing that the man responsible was at large. He became addicted to heroin. He nearly died when he OD'd in a London flat. And his addiction helped drive a rift in his band just as they were reaching a critical and commercial height.
