Merry Christmas!In this heartfelt Christmas Eve service message, Pastor Karl explores the profound truth that Christmas is far more than a baby in a manger—it's the culmination of God's everlasting love story that began in the Garden of Eden.Drawing parallels between Eden and Bethlehem, Pastor Karl unpacks how God's love has always been revealed through three key ways: proximity (drawing near to walk with us), provision (supplying what we cannot provide for ourselves, including forgiveness and eternal life), and parameters (loving boundaries for our protection and flourishing).Yet humanity's response—from Adam and Eve to today—has often been to doubt God's goodness, reject His nearness, and step outside His guardrails. Even so, God's relentless love pursues us, covers our shame, and satisfies His justice through the promised Seed: Jesus Christ, whose virgin birth and sacrificial death crush the enemy's power.Pastor Karl challenges us: Many love the warm vibe of Christmas but avoid its weighty claims. True celebration means embracing God's love fully—belonging to His family, becoming like Christ, giving our lives in response, and going on mission to share His love.This message invites everyone to respond to God's pursuit, whether by placing faith in Jesus for the first time or recommitting to live in joyful obedience within His loving parameters.Join us as Pastor Karl and his son Caleb dive deeper into these truths in a special family message. Come experience the depth of God's love that didn't begin in Bethlehem—but was gloriously fulfilled there.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

In this powerful message from Pastor Karl, we journey beyond the manger to discover the timeless roots of Christmas in the Garden of Eden. Christmas is far more than a seasonal vibe—it's the profound story of God's unchanging love, revealed through proximity, provision, and loving parameters.Drawing parallels between Eden and Bethlehem, Pastor Karl shows how God has always pursued us: walking closely with humanity, generously providing what we cannot obtain ourselves, and setting protective boundaries for our good. Yet, from the beginning, humanity has often rejected this love, doubting God's goodness and choosing our own way.The heart of the gospel shines through as Pastor Karl reminds us that even in our rejection, God's love pursues and covers us—first promised in Genesis with the crushing of the serpent's head through the seed of the woman, and perfectly fulfilled in the incarnation of Jesus, Emmanuel, "God with us."This message challenges us: Will we embrace not just the warmth of Christmas, but the weighty claims of Christmas—God's call to love Him fully with our whole heart, soul, mind, and strength through belonging to His family, becoming like Christ, giving generously, and going on mission?A stirring reminder that God's everlasting love didn't begin in Bethlehem—it was set in motion from the very beginning, for you and me.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn: In this week’s *In-Ear Insights*, let’s talk about small language models. Katie, you recently came across this and you’re like, okay, we’ve heard this before. What did you hear? Katie Robbert: As I mentioned on a previous episode, I was sitting on a panel recently and there was a lot of conversation around what generative AI is. The question came up of what do we see for AI in the next 12 months? Which I kind of hate that because it’s so wide open. But one of the panelists responded that SLMs were going to be the thing. I sat there and I was listening to them explain it and they’re small language models, things that are more privatized, things that you keep locally. I was like, oh, local models, got it. Yeah, that’s already a thing. But I can understand where moving into the next year, there’s probably going to be more of a focus on it. I think that the term local model and small language model in this context was likely being used interchangeably. I don’t believe that they’re the same thing. I thought local model, something you keep literally locally in your environment, doesn’t touch the internet. We’ve done episodes about that which you can catch on our livestream if you go to TrustInsights.ai YouTube, go to the Soap playlist. We have a whole episode about building your own local model and the benefits of it. But the term small language model was one that I’ve heard in passing, but I’ve never really dug deep into it. Chris, in as much as you can, in layman’s terms, what is a small language model as opposed to a large language model, other than— Christopher S. Penn: Is the best description? There is no generally agreed upon definition other than it’s small. All language models are measured in terms of the number of tokens they were trained on and the number of parameters they have. Parameters are basically the number of combinations of tokens that they’ve seen. So a big model like Google Gemini, GPT 5.1, whatever we’re up to this week, Claude Opus 4.5—these models are anywhere between 700 billion and 2 to 3 trillion parameters. They are massive. You need hundreds of thousands of dollars of hardware just to even run it, if you could. And there are models. You nailed it exactly. Local models are models that you run on your hardware. There are local large language models—Deep Seq, for example. Deep Seq is a Chinese model: 671 billion parameters. You need to spend a minimum of $50,000 of hardware just to turn it on and run it. Kimmy K2 instruct is 700 billion parameters. I think Alibaba Quinn has a 480 billion parameter. These are, again, you’re spending tens of thousands of dollars. Models are made in all these different sizes. So as you create models, you can create what are called distillates. You can take a big model like Quinn 3 480B and you can boil it down. You can remove stuff from it till you get to an 80 billion parameter version, a 30 billion parameter version, a 3 billion parameter version, and all the way down to 100 million parameters, even 10 million parameters. Once you get below a certain point—and it varies based on who you talk to—it’s no longer a large language model, it’s a small English model. Because the smaller the model gets, the dumber it gets, the less information it has to work with. It’s like going from the Oxford English Dictionary to a pamphlet. The pamphlet has just the most common words. The Oxford English Dictionary has all the words. Small language models, generally these days people mean roughly 8 billion parameters and under. There are things that you can run, for example, on a phone. Katie Robbert: If I’m following correctly, I understand the tokens, the size, pamphlet versus novel, that kind of a thing. Is a use case for a small language model something that perhaps you build yourself and train solely on your content versus something externally? What are some use cases? What are the benefits other than cost and storage? What are some of the benefits of a small language model versus a large language model? Christopher S. Penn: Cost and speed are the two big ones. They’re very fast because they’re so small. There has not been a lot of success in custom training and tuning models for a specific use case. A lot of people—including us two years ago—thought that was a good idea because at the time the big models weren’t much better at creating stuff in Katie Robbert’s writing style. So back then, training a custom version of say Llama 2 at the time to write like Katie was a good idea. Today’s models, particularly when you look at some of the open weights models like Alibaba Quinn 3 Next, are so smart even at small sizes that it’s not worth doing that because instead you could just prompt it like you prompt ChatGPT and say, “Here’s Katie’s writing style, just write like Katie,” and it’s smart enough to know that. One of the peculiarities of AI is that more review is better. If you have a big model like GPT 5.1 and you say, “Write this blog post in the style of Katie Robbert,” it will do a reasonably good job on that. But if you have a small model like Quinn 3 Next, which is only £80 billion, and you have it say, “Write a blog post in style of Katie Robbert,” and then re-invoke the model, say, “Review the blog post to make sure it’s in style Katie Robbert,” and then have it review it again and say, “Now make sure it’s the style of Katie Robbert.” It will do that faster with fewer resources and deliver a much better result. Because the more passes, the more reviews it has, the more time it has to work on something, the better tends to perform. The reason why you heard people talking about small language models is not because they’re better, but because they’re so fast and so lightweight, they work well as agents. Once you tie them into agents and give them tool handling—the ability to do a web search—that small model in the same time it takes a GPT 5.1 and a thousand watts of electricity, a small model can run five or six times and deliver a better result than the big one in that same amount of time. And you can run it on your laptop. That’s why people are saying small language models are important, because you can say, “Hey, small model, do this. Check your work, check your work again, make sure it’s good.” Katie Robbert: I want to debunk it here now that in terms of buzzwords, people are going to be talking about small language models—SLMs. It’s the new rage, but really it’s just a more efficient version, if I’m following correctly, when it’s coupled in an agentic workflow versus having it as a standalone substitute for something like a ChatGPT or a Gemini. Christopher S. Penn: And it depends on the model too. There’s 2.1 million of these things. For example, IBM WatsonX, our friends over at IBM, they have their own model called Granite. Granite is specifically designed for enterprise environments. It is a small model. I think it’s like 8 billion to 10 billion parameters. But it is optimized for tool handling. It says, “I don’t know much, but I know that I have tools.” And then it looks at its tool belt and says, “Oh, I have web search, I have catalog search, I have this search, I have all these tools.” Even though I don’t know squat about squat, I can talk in English and I can look things up. In the WatsonX ecosystem, Granite performs really well, performs way better than a model even a hundred times the size, because it knows what tools to invoke. Think of it like an intern or a sous chef in a kitchen who knows what appliances to use and in which order. The appliances are doing all the work and the sous chef is, “I’m just going to follow the recipe and I know what appliances to use. I don’t have to know how to cook. I just got to follow the recipes.” As opposed to a master chef who might not need all those appliances, but has 40 years of experience and also costs you $250,000 in fees to work with. That’s kind of the difference between a small and a large language model is the level of capability. But the way things are going, particularly outside the USA and outside the west, is small models paired with tool handling in agentic environments where they can dramatically outperform big models. Katie Robbert: Let’s talk a little bit about the seven major use cases of generative AI. You’ve covered them extensively, so I probably won’t remember all seven, but let me see how many I got. I got to use my fingers for this. We have summarization, generation, extraction, classification, synthesis. I got two more. I lost. I don’t know what are the last two? Christopher S. Penn: Rewriting and question answering. Katie Robbert: Got it. Those are always the ones I forget. A lot of people—and we talked about this. You and I talk about this a lot. You talk about this on stage and I talked about this on the panel. Generation is the worst possible use for generative AI, but it’s the most popular use case. When we think about those seven major use cases for generative AI, can we sort of break down small language models versus large language models and what you should and should not use a small language model for in terms of those seven use cases? Christopher S. Penn: You should not use a small language model for generation without extra data. The small language model is good at all seven use cases, if you provide it the data it needs to use. And the same is true for large language models. If you’re experiencing hallucinations with Gemini or ChatGPT, whatever, it’s probably because you haven’t provided enough of your own data. And if we refer back to a previous episode on copyright, the more of your own data you provide, the less you have to worry about copyrights. They’re all good at it when you provide the useful data with it. I’ll give you a real simple example. Recently I was working on a piece of software for a client that would take one of their ideal customer profiles and a webpage of the clients and score the page on 17 different criteria of whether the ideal customer profile would like that page or not. The back end language model for this system is a small model. It’s Meta Llama 4 Scout, which is a very small, very fast, not a particularly bright model. However, because we’re giving it the webpage text, we’re giving it a rubric, and we’re giving it an ICP, it knows enough about language to go, “Okay, compare.” This is good, this is not good. And give it a score. Even though it’s a small model that’s very fast and very cheap, it can do the job of a large language model because we’re providing all the data with it. The dividing line to me in the use cases is how much data are you asking the model to bring? If you want to do generation and you have no data, you need a large language model, you need something that has seen the world. You need a Gemini or a ChatGPT or Claude that’s really expensive to come up with something that doesn’t exist. But if you got the data, you don’t need a big model. And in fact, it’s better environmentally speaking if you don’t use a big heavy model. If you have a blog post, outline or transcript and you have Katie Robbert’s writing style and you have the Trust Insights brand style guide, you could use a Gemini Flash or even a Gemini Flash Light, the cheapest of their models, or Claude Haiku, which is the cheapest of their models, to dash off a blog post. That’ll be perfect. It will have the writing style, will have the content, will have the voice because you provided all the data. Katie Robbert: Since you and I typically don’t use—I say typically because we do sometimes—but typically don’t use large language models without all of that contextual information, without those knowledge blocks, without ICPs or some sort of documentation, it sounds like we could theoretically start moving off of large language models. We could move to exclusively small language models and not be sacrificing any of the quality of the output because—with the caveat, big asterisks—we give it all of the background data. I don’t use large language models without at least giving it the ICP or my knowledge block or something about Trust Insights. Why else would I be using it? But that’s me personally. I feel that without getting too far off the topic, I could be reducing my carbon footprint by using a small language model the same way that I use a large language model, which for me is a big consideration. Christopher S. Penn: You are correct. A lot of people—it was a few weeks ago now—Cloudflare had a big outage and it took down OpenAI, took down a bunch of other people, and a whole bunch of people said, “I have no AI anymore.” The rest of us said, “Well, you could just use Gemini because it’s a different DNS.” But suppose the internet had a major outage, a major DNS failure. On my laptop I have Quinn 3, I have it running inside LM Studio. I have used it on flights when the internet is highly unreliable. And because we have those knowledge blocks, I can generate just as good results as the major providers. And it turns out perfectly. For every company. If you are dependent now on generative AI as part of your secret sauce, you have an obligation to understand small language models and to have them in place as a backup system so that when your provider of choice goes down, you can keep doing what you do. Tools like LM Studio, Jan, AI, Cobol, cpp, llama, CPP Olama, all these with our hosting systems that you run on your computer with a small language model. Many of them have drag and drop your attachments in, put in your PDFs, put in your knowledge blocks, and you are off to the races. Katie Robbert: I feel that is going to be a future live stream for sure. Because the first question, you just sort of walk through at a high level how people get started. But that’s going to be a big question: “Okay, I’m hearing about small language models. I’m hearing that they’re more secure, I’m hearing that they’re more reliable. I have all the data, how do I get started? Which one should I choose?” There’s a lot of questions and considerations because it still costs money, there’s still an environmental impact, there’s still the challenge of introducing bias, and it’s trained on who knows. Those things don’t suddenly get solved. You have to sort of do your due diligence as you’re honestly introducing any piece of technology. A small language model is just a different piece of technology. You still have to figure out the use cases for it. Just saying, “Okay, I’m going to use a small language model,” doesn’t necessarily guarantee it’s going to be better. You still have to do all of that homework. I think that, Chris, our next step is to start putting together those demos of what it looks like to use a small language model, how to get started, but also going back to the foundation because the foundation is the key to all of it. What knowledge blocks should you have to use both a small and a large language model or a local model? It kind of doesn’t matter what model you’re using. You have to have the knowledge blocks. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly. You have to have the knowledge blocks and you have to understand how the language models work and know that if you are used to one-shotting things in a big model, like “make blog posts,” you just copy and paste the blog post. You cannot do that with a small language model because they’re not as capable. You need to use an agent flow with small English models. Tools today like LM Studio and anythingLLM have that built in. You don’t have to build that yourself anymore. It’s pre-built. This would be perfect for a live stream to say, “Here’s how you build an agent flow inside anythingLLM to say, ‘Write the blog post, review the blog post for factual correctness based on these documents, review the blog post for writing style based on this document, review this.'” The language model will run four times in a row. To you, the user, it will just be “write the blog post” and then come back in six minutes, and it’s done. But architecturally there are changes you would need to make sure that it meets the same quality of standard you’re used to from a larger model. However, if you have all the knowledge blocks, it will work just as well. Katie Robbert: And here I was thinking we were just going to be describing small versus large, but there’s a lot of considerations and I think that’s good because in some ways I think it’s a good thing. Let me see, how do I want to say this? I don’t want to say that there are barriers to adoption. I think there are opportunities to pause and really assess the solutions that you’re integrating into your organization. Call them barriers to adoption. Call them opportunities. I think it’s good that we still have to be thoughtful about what we’re bringing into our organization because new tech doesn’t solve old problems, it only magnifies it. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly. The other thing I’ll point out with small language models and with local models in particular, because the use cases do have a lot of overlap, is what you said, Katie—the privacy angle. They are perfect for highly sensitive things. I did a talk recently for the Massachusetts Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators. One of the biggest tasks is reconciling people’s financial aid forms with their tax forms, because a lot of people do their taxes wrong. There are models that can visually compare and look at it to IRS 990 and say, “Yep, you screwed up your head of household declarations, that screwed up the rest of your taxes, and your financial aid is broke.” You cannot put that into ChatGPT. I mean, you can, but you are violating a bunch of laws to do that. You’re violating FERPA, unless you’re using the education version of ChatGPT, which is locked down. But even still, you are not guaranteed privacy. However, if you’re using a small model like Quinn 3VL in a local ecosystem, it can do that just as capably. It does it completely privately because the data never leaves your laptop. For anyone who’s working in highly regulated industries, you really want to learn small language models and local models because this is how you’ll get the benefits of AI, of generative AI, without nearly as many of the risks. Katie Robbert: I think that’s a really good point and a really good use case that we should probably create some content around. Why should you be using a small language model? What are the benefits? Pros, cons, all of those things. Because those questions are going to come up especially as we sort of predict that small language model will become a buzzword in 2026. If you haven’t heard of it now, you have. We’ve given you sort of the gist of what it is. But any piece of technology, you really have to do your homework to figure out is it right for you? Please don’t just hop on the small language model bandwagon, but then also be using large language models because then you’re doubling down on your climate impact. Christopher S. Penn: Exactly.

Citing a chronic shortage of financial backing for independent publishers and nonprofits dedicated to writing and reading, a coalition of seven charitable foundations has established a Literary Arts Fund that will distribute a minimum of $50 million over the next five years. The idea for the fund was initiated by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the country's largest philanthropic supporter of the arts. Mellon President Elizabeth Alexander cited literature as a vital source of expression. “Novelists, poets, and all manner of creative writers have shaped and driven our collective discourse and capacity for invention since the nation's founding,” Alexander, an acclaimed poet who joined Mellon in 2018, said in a statement. “American philanthropy can and must play a bigger role in strengthening the financial infrastructure of the literary organizations and nonprofits that serve these literary artists.” Author-bookseller Ann Patchett said in a statement that supporting “the future of literature is a cause for celebration.” The other participants are the Ford Foundation, Hawthornden Foundation, Lannan Foundation, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Poetry Foundation, and an anonymous foundation. The project will be overseen by Jennifer Benka, whose previous experience includes serving as executive director of the Academy of American Poets. The application process began on November 10. During a telephone interview with The Associated Press, Alexander emphasized that the literary fund had been in the works well before the National Endowment for the Arts and National Endowment for the Humanities drastically cut back their support this year for virtually every art form. She referred to a 2023 study from the research organization Candid that found literary organizations and individuals were receiving less than 2% of some $5 billion in arts grants awarded in the U.S. Parameters have not yet been established for the size of grants, but Alexander said support will likely extend across a wide range of recipients, from poetry festivals to writer residencies to small publishers. “Support for literature goes a long way,” she said. “And language in its highest form is the best of humanity.” This article was provided by The Associated Press.

Luke 13:3 Jesus says, Unless you repent you will all likewise perish. Acts 5:32 says, The Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him. And Hebrews 5:9 tells us Jesus is the author of eternal salvation to all those who obey Him.

Craig Unger confirms the Madrid meeting in July 1980, where Bill Casey met with Iranian cleric Mehdi Karoubi, establishing the parameters of the October Surprise by asking Karoubi to delay the hostage release until after the presidential election. The alleged Paris meeting in October involving George H.W. Bush is harder to prove, though investigative work punctured Bush's alibis. Iran was motivated by desperation for American military spare parts, especially after Iraq invaded in September 1980. Unger believes the overall preponderance of evidence suggests the Paris meeting occurred, intended to secure the deal with the highest possible authority. Guest: Craig Unger.

What happens when the data goes dark, yet markets barely flinch? In this episode, Niels and Katy unpack the month of October defined by missing economic releases, relentless equity strength and three extraordinary days of Liberation Day turbulence. They explore why price often tells the truest story, how total portfolio thinking could rewrite the role of trend, and why short term strategies faltered while precious metals surged. The conversation then shifts to the coming wave of alternatives in private wealth and the silent risk inside target date funds, asking how managed futures can reshape retirement outcomes when timing paths go wrong.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Katy on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Introduction and catching up from Boston02:00 - Life without economic data and what markets really need04:20 - Price as the only truth and the limits of official data05:45 - CalPERS, total portfolio thinking and what it means for trend08:20 - AI, data centers and the inflation story hiding in electricity10:30 - Inflation regimes, unstable prices and why trend cares about change12:40 - Year to date trend review across equities, metals, FX and bonds15:10 - Why short term traders struggled in a headline driven year20:00 - Picking “the best strategy” and why robustness matters more than Sharpe24:10 - Parameters, speed of response and treating markets differently26:20

Marketing im Kopf - ein Podcast von Luis BinderIn dieser Folge wird über verschiedene Unternehmen gesprochen, da Markennamen genannt werden, handelt es sich um UNBEZAHLTE WERBUNG!In dieser Folge: In der heutigen Podcastfolge von Marketing im Kopf geht's darum, wie die Leistungsfähigkeit eines Dienstleisters den Marketing-Mix beeinflusst. Wir schauen uns an, warum der Mix für Dienstleistungen um Personal erweitert wird und welche Implikationen die 5 P's (Product, Price, Place, Promotion, Personal) mit sich bringen. Außerdem schauen wir uns die Besonderheit von externen Faktoren, also des Kunden an und wie die die Dienstleistungserstellung prägen.____________________________________________Marketing-News der Woche:⁠Hashtags verlieren ihren Reichweiten-EffektFür Social-Media-Marketing heißt „mehr Hashtags = mehr Reach“ endgültig Vergangenheit. Instagram-Chef Adam Mosseri sagt jetzt: Hashtags sind primär Labels, kein Wachstumstrick. Wichtiger für Reichweite sind Keywords in Caption und On-Screen-Text, Watchtime, Shares/Saves und echte Interaktionen. Marken im DACH-Raum sollten ihre Social-Media-Strategien daher auf Suchbegriffe, Alt-Texte und Kommentar-Dialoge umstellen, besonders bei Reels.SEO & digitale Werbung: Google ändert Parameter In der vergangenen Woche sorgte Google still für Mess-Chaos: Das Deaktivieren des Parameters „&num=100“ beeinflusste Rank-Tracker und SEO-Reports weltweit. Für Marketing-Teams heißt das: Rankings, Impressionen und Kampagnen-KPIs können kurzfristig verzerrt sein. Prüft eure Dashboards, gleicht Datenquellen ab und fokussiert stärker auf qualitatives Engagement statt reine Positionen. Das passt zu einem breiteren Trend: mehr Gewicht auf Content-Qualität, Autorität und Nutzerwert in aktuellen Updates.EU-Regulierung: DSA verschärft WerbetransparenzWer in der EU digitale Werbung schaltet, muss Transparenz liefern: klare Ad-Labels, Infos zu Absender und Targeting; sensiblen-Daten-Targeting ist untersagt, Ads an Kinder sind tabu. Diese Pflichten sind für Social-Media-Strategien zentral. Passend dazu veröffentlichte TikTok seinen jüngsten Transparenzbericht unter dem EU-Kodex (inzwischen im DSA verankert) mit Zahlen aus 30 EU/EEA-Ländern. Marken sollten Ad-Repository-Daten, Creator-Briefings und Moderationsprozesse prüfen, um Compliance-Risiken zu vermeiden.Studie betont Wert seriöser UmfelderFür Branding, Reichweite und Vertrauen im deutschsprachigen Markt bleibt die Platzierung in hochwertigen Medienumfeldern ein Wettbewerbsvorteil. Eine aktuelle Analyse zum Schweizer Werbemarkt zeigt: Journalistische Qualitätsumfelder zahlen langfristig auf Markenvertrauen ein und werden gezielt für Awareness- und Imageziele gebucht. ____________________________________________Vernetz dich gerne auf LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/luisbinder/⁠ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marketingimkopf/Du hast Fragen, Anregungen oder Ideen?

HEADLINE: Confirmed Meetings: Casey in Madrid and the Question of Bush in Paris AUTHOR: Craig UngerSUMMARY: Craig Unger reports strong evidence that Bill Casey met with Iranian cleric Karoubi in Madrid in late July 1980 to set the parameters of the October Surprise deal, specifically demanding the delay of hostage release. While George H.W. Bush's alleged 1980 Paris meeting to "seal the deal" remains unproved, his alibis have been punctured.

When what once worked… no longer fits. You've built a life that looks good on paper-but something inside you knows you're meant for more. Not more hustle, but more depth. Not more strategy, but more alignment. It's a threshold—and how you move through it changes everything. In this potent solo episode, I'm naming the exact moment many high-level leaders reach but rarely talk about: the quiet, restless, in-between place where your old identity no longer fits, but your next chapter hasn't fully emerged. Through stories, insight, and experience from coaching top performers and creatives, I offer a fresh way to approach growth, not as self-improvement, but as honest evolution. You'll learn: How to recognize and navigate threshold moments in life, leadership, and creativityWhy setting 3 clear parameters can radically increase momentum and decision-making clarityWhat kind of support actually works when you're already successful—but seeking something deeperWhy finding a “truth-telling space” (outside your usual circles) is essential to keep growing with integrity. Whether you're expanding, plateauing, or just craving a new kind of freedom—this episode offers a space to pause, reflect, and reimagine what's possible.

In the final episode of this series on Oracle GoldenGate 23ai, Lois Houston and Nikita Abraham welcome back Nick Wagner, Senior Director of Product Management for GoldenGate, to discuss how parameters shape data replication. This episode covers parameter files, data selection, filtering, and transformation, providing essential insights for managing GoldenGate deployments.   Oracle GoldenGate 23ai: Fundamentals: https://mylearn.oracle.com/ou/course/oracle-goldengate-23ai-fundamentals/145884/237273 Oracle University Learning Community: https://education.oracle.com/ou-community LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/oracle-university/ X: https://x.com/Oracle_Edu   Special thanks to Arijit Ghosh, David Wright, Kris-Ann Nansen, Radhika Banka, and the OU Studio Team for helping us create this episode. --------------------------------------------------------------- Podcast Transcript: 00:00 Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast, the first stop on your cloud journey. During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:25 Lois: Hello and welcome to the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Lois Houston, Director of Innovation Programs with Oracle University, and with me is Nikita Abraham, Team Lead: Editorial Services.  Nikita: Hi everyone! This is the last episode in our Oracle GoldenGate 23ai series. Previously, we looked at how you can manage Extract Trails and Files. If you missed that episode, do go back and give it a listen.  00:50 Lois: Today, Nick Wagner, Senior Director of Product Management for GoldenGate, is back on the podcast to tell us about parameters, data selection, filtering, and transformation. These are key components of GoldenGate because they allow us to control what data is replicated, how it's transformed, and where it's sent. Hi Nick! Thanks for joining us again. So, what are the different types of parameter files? Nick: We have a GLOBALS parameter file and your runtime parameter files. The global one is going to affect all processes within a deployment. It's going to be things like where's your checkpoint table located in name, things like the heartbeat table. You want to have a single one of these across your entire deployment, so it makes sense to keep it within a single file. We also have runtime parameter files. This are going to be associated with a specific extract or replicat process. These files are located in your OGG_ETC_HOME/conf/ogg. The GLOBALS file is just simply named GLOBALS and all capitals, and your parameter file names for the processes themselves are named with the process.prm. So if my extract process is EXT demo, my parameter file name will be extdemo.prm. When you make changes to parameter files, they don't take effect until the process is restarted. So in the case of a GLOBALS parameter file, you need to restart the administration service. And in a runtime parameter file, you need to restart that specific process before any changes will take effect. We also have what we call a managed process setting profile. And this allows you to set up auto restart profiles for each process. And the GoldenGate Gate classic architecture, this was contained within the GLOBALS parameter file and handled by the manager. And microservices is a little bit different, it's handled by the service manager itself. But now we actually set up profiles. 02:41 Nikita: Ok, so what can you tell us about the extract parameter file specifically?  Nick: There's a couple things within the extract parameter file is common use. First, we want to tell what the group name is. So in this case, it would be our extract name. We need to put in information on where the extract process is going to be writing the data it captures to and that would be our trail files, and extract process can write to one or more trail files. We also want to list out the list of tables and schemas that we're going to be capturing, as well as any kind of DDL changes. If we're doing an initial load, we want to set up the SQL predicate to determine which tables are being captured and put a WHERE clause on those to speed up performance. We can also do filtering within the extract process as well. So we write just the information that we need to the trail file. 03:27 Nikita: And what are the common parameters within an extract process? Nick: There are a couple of common parameters within your extract process. We have table to list out the list of tables that GoldenGate is going to be capturing from. These can be wildcarded. So I can simply do table.star and GoldenGate will capture all the tables in that database. I can also do schema.star and it will capture all the tables within a schema. We have our EXTTRAIL command, which tells GoldenGate which trail to write to. If I want to filter out certain rows and columns, I can use the filter cols and cols except parameter. GoldenGate can also capture sequence changes. So we would use the sequence parameter. And then we can also set some high-level database options for GoldenGate that affect all the tables and that's configured using the tranlog options parameter.  04:14 Lois: Nick, can you talk a bit about the different types of tranlogoptions settings? How can they be used to control what the extract process does? Nick: So one of the first ones is ExcludeTag. So GoldenGate has the ability to exclude tagged transactions. Within the database itself, you can actually specify a transaction to be tagged using a DBMS set tag option. GoldenGate replicat also sets its transactions with a tag so that the GoldenGate process knows which transactions were done by the replicat and it can exclude them automatically. You can do exclude tag with a plus. That simply means to exclude any transaction that's been tagged with any value. You can also exclude specific tags.  Another good option for TranLogOptions is enable procedural replication. This allows GoldenGate to actually capture and replicate database procedure calls, and this would be things like DBMS AQ, NQ operations, or DQ operations. So if you're using Oracle advanced queuing and you need GoldenGate to replicate those changes, it can.  Another valuable tranlogoption setting is enable auto capture. Within the Oracle Database, you can actually set ALTER TABLE command that says ALTER TABLE, enable logical replication. Or when you create a table, you can actually do CREATE TABLE statement and at the end use the enable logical replication option for that CREATE TABLE statement. And this tells GoldenGate to automatically capture that table. One of the nice features about this is that I don't need to specify that table and my parameter file, and it'll automatically enable supplemental logging on that table for me using scheduling columns. So it makes it very easy to set up replication between Oracle databases.  06:01 Nikita: Can you tell us about replicat parameters, Nick? Nick: Within a replicat, we'll have the group name, some common other parameters that we'll use is a mapping parameter that allows us to map the source to target table relationships. We can do transformation within the replicat, as well as error handling and controlling group operations to improve performance. Some common replicat parameters include the replicat parameter itself, which tells us what the name of that replicat is. We have our map statement, which allows us to map a source object to a target object. We have things like rep error that control how to handle errors. Insert all records allows us to change and convert, update, and delete operations into inserts. We can do things like compare calls, which helps with active-active replication in determining which columns are used in the GoldenGate WHERE clause. We also have the ability to use macros and column mapping to do additional transformation and make the parameter file look elegant. 07:07 AI is being used in nearly every industry…healthcare, manufacturing, retail, customer service, transportation, agriculture, you name it! And it's only going to get more prevalent and transformational in the future. It's no wonder that AI skills are the most sought-after by employers. If you're ready to dive in to AI, check out the OCI AI Foundations training and certification that's available for free! It's the perfect starting point to build your AI knowledge. So, get going! Head on over to mylearn.oracle.com to find out more. 07:47 Nikita: Welcome back! Let's move on to some of the most interesting topics within GoldenGate… data mapping, selection, and transformation. As I understand, users can do pretty cool things with GoldenGate. So Nick, let's start with how GoldenGate can manipulate, change, and map data between two different databases. Nick: The map statement within a Replicat parameter allows you to provide specifications on how you're going to map source and target objects. You can also use a map and an extract, but it's pretty rare. And that would be used if you needed to write the object name. Inside the trail files is a different name than the actual object name that you're capturing from. GoldenGate can also do different data selection, mapping, and manipulation, and this is all controlled within the Extract and Replicat parameter files. In the classic architecture of GoldenGate, you could do a rudimentary level of transformation and filtering within the extract pump. Now, the distribution service is only allowing you to do filtering. Any transformation that you had within the pump would need to be moved to the Extract or the Replicat process.  The other thing that you can do within GoldenGate is select and filter data based on different levels and conditions. So within your parameter clause, you have your Table and Map statement. That's the core of everything. You have your filtering. You have COLS and COLSEXCEPT, which allow you to determine which columns you're going to include or exclude from replication. The Table and Map statement works at the table level. The FILTER works at the row level. And COLS and COLSEXCEPTs works at the column level. We also have the ability to filter by operation type too. So GoldenGate has some very easy parameters called GitInserts, GitUpdates, GitDeletes, and conversely ignore updates, ignore deletes, ignore inserts. And that will affect the operation type. 09:40 Lois: Nick, are there any features that GoldenGate provides to make data replication easier? Nick: The first thing is that GoldenGate is going to automatically match your source and target column names with a parameter called USEDEFAULTS. You can specify it inside of your COLMAP clause, but again, it's a default, so you don't need to worry about it. We also handle all data type and character set conversion. Because we store the metadata in the trail, we know what that source data type is like. When we go to apply the record to the target table, the Replicat process is going to look up the definition of that record and keep a repository of that in memory. So that when it knows that, hey, this value coming in from the trail file is going to be of a date data type, and then this value in the target database is going to be a character data type, it knows how to convert that date to a character, and it'll do it for you. Most of the conversion is going to be done automatically for data types. Things where we don't do automatic data type conversion is if you're using abstract data types or user-defined data types, collections arrays, and then some types of CLOB operations. For example, if you're going from a BLOB to a JSON, that's not really going to work very well. Character set conversion is also done automatically. It's not necessarily done directly by GoldenGate, but it's done by the database engine. So there is a character set value inside that source database.  And when GoldenGate goes to apply those changes into the target system, it's ensuring that that character set is visible and named so that that database can do the necessary translation. You can also do advanced filtering transformation. There's tokens that you can attach from the source environment, database, or records into a record itself on the trail file. And then there's also a bunch of metadata that GoldenGate can use to attach to the record itself. And then of course, you can use data transformation within your COLMAP statement. 11:28 Nikita: Before we wrap up, what types of data transformations can we perform, Nick?  Nick: So there's quite a few different data transformations. We can do constructive or destructive transformation, aesthetic, and structural. 11:39 Lois: That's it for the Oracle GoldenGate 23ai: Fundamentals series. I think we covered a lot of ground this season. Thank you, Nick, for taking us through it all.  Nikita: Yeah, thank you so much, Nick.

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Chance Armstrong and Dr. Jennifer Koziol to discuss a paper published in the AABP peer-reviewed journal The Bovine Practitioner. The journal is available open-access and the target audience is practicing veterinarians. Veterinarians performing bull breeding soundness exams are often asked when they can vaccinate bulls, and much of the available research focuses on type and timing of vaccination on females. The objective of this study was to determine if and how multivalent vaccines (modified-live and killed) affect spermatogenesis in bulls, measured by the percentage of normal sperm morphology and progressively motile sperm over a complete spermatogenesis cycle in bulls.  Our guests walk through the results of the study which demonstrated no detrimental effect associated with the use of multivalent modified-live or killed viral vaccines on the sperm morphology of mature bulls over a 61-day period. This suggests that vaccination of mature bulls following a routine bull BSE or at the time of turnout could be performed with limited risk. Our guests emphasize the importance of the veterinarian performing a full BSE 30-60 days before the breeding season starts. Armstrong re-iterates the Society for Theriogenology (SFT) standards for the appropriate evaluation of bulls for breeding soundness. Koziol and Armstrong are the authors of the SFT Manual for Bull BSEs and you can find information at this link. We also review how stress, nutrition and lameness also affect bull fertility and the importance of the veterinarian performing this complete evaluation to identify satisfactory breeders for cow herds. Finally, we discuss the new AABP Bull Breeding Soundness Examination Position Statement (find it at this link). This statement was developed by the AABP Reproduction Committee which ultimately states that this procedure is the practice of veterinary medicine and requires the expertise and knowledge of the veterinarian to perform. Our guests reiterate that this position statement is advocacy for the practicing veterinarian by AABP. If you are interested in reproduction, Armstrong and Koziol encourage you to join the committee by going to this link to email the committee chair. The email should include your name, veterinary school, grad year and your interest in the committee.  Assessing bull breeding soundness exam parameters following vaccination with modified-live or killed vaccine.
