Cultural Differences & Cultural Diversity in International Business
Investing and cultural differences with Remco Coerman Remco Coerman is a Strategic Advisor in Wealth Protection & International Investment Structures, specializing in helping internationally mobile individuals and families safeguard assets across jurisdictions. In this episode, we explore how investing and cultural differences shape financial decision-making, risk perception, and long-term planning strategies. Remco explains that successful cross-border structuring is not just about tax efficiency or legal vehicles, but also about understanding how investing and cultural differences influence trust, governance, and intergenerational wealth transfer. Drawing on decades of experience, he outlines practical frameworks for aligning strategy with mindset, demonstrating why mastering investing and cultural differences is essential in a globalized financial landscape. His tips to become more culturally competent are: Listen to the other person (we're both Dutch and we're right), keep your mouth shut. Keep your own opinion to yourself. "If you ask me..." but nobody wants to hear this, and nobody is asking you. Look for a life partner outside your own country. It will give you a wealth of experience.

Take the next step in your veterinary dentistry journey — get a FREE online course with 1 hour of RACE-approved CE when you subscribe to our newsletter: https://ivdi.org/free ---------------------------------------------------------- Host: Dr. Brett Beckman, DVM, FAVD, DAVDC, DAAPM ---------------------------------------------------------- In this episode of The Vet Dental Show, Dr. Brett Beckman answers advanced, case-based questions from recent online veterinary dentistry trainings, focusing on real-world decision-making in general practice. The discussion covers extraction technique modifications, bur selection for challenging teeth, and evidence-based use of hyaluronic acid and bone grafts in periodontal and surgical cases. Dr. Beckman explains why he has shifted away from routine vestibular bone removal for certain extractions—particularly the mandibular third and fourth premolars—and instead emphasizes controlled sectioning, gentle elevation, and patience to reduce root fracture risk. He shares practical tips on finger pressure, visualization with loupes, and how this technique improves efficiency and outcomes in both clinical cases and wet labs. The episode also explores the biological role of hyaluronic acid in extraction sites and periodontal defects. Dr. Beckman and colleagues clarify the differences between PerioVive and OralVive, explain why retention is not the primary goal of hyaluronic acid therapy, and discuss its benefits for clot stabilization, pain modulation, angiogenesis, and soft tissue healing. The conversation addresses when hyaluronic acid should be used in extraction sites, how it integrates with blood clots and bone grafts, and why products like ClinDoral no longer have a role in these scenarios. Finally, Dr. Beckman dives into one of the most challenging topics in veterinary dentistry: deciding when to save a tooth versus extract it. He breaks down why percentage-based bone loss alone is not a reliable extraction rule, and instead emphasizes case selection based on tooth function, patient age, defect type, and—most importantly—owner commitment to long-term follow-up and home care. This episode delivers thoughtful, experience-driven guidance to help veterinarians make confident, ethical, and practical dental decisions. ---------------------------------------------------------- What You'll Learn: ✅ When vestibular bone removal may increase root fracture risk ✅ How to approach difficult premolar extractions with minimal force ✅ Why sectioning and gentle elevation can replace aggressive bone removal ✅ Proper bur selection for sectioning thick alveolar bone ✅ The biological role of hyaluronic acid in clot stabilization and healing ✅ Key differences between PerioVive and OralVive ✅ Why retention is not the primary goal of hyaluronic acid therapy ✅ When and why to use hyaluronic acid in all extraction sites ✅ How bone grafts and blood clots support alveolar ridge preservation ✅ How to decide when a tooth is worth saving versus extracting Key Takeaways: ✅ Root fractures often occur at the interface between mobile and immobile bone ✅ Gentle, controlled elevation reduces complications more than force ✅ Removing less bone can sometimes improve extraction outcomes ✅ Hyaluronic acid is rapidly absorbed and supports natural healing pathways ✅ Pain modulation is a major benefit of HA in extraction sites ✅ Blood clots function as natural bone grafts ✅ Percentage of bone loss alone should not dictate extraction decisions ✅ Patient age, tooth function, and owner compliance matter most ✅ Long-term success depends on consistent rechecks and home care ✅ Some teeth can be saved—but not always in the patient's best interest Questions This Episode Answers: ❓ Should fissure burs be used for mandibular premolar extractions in dogs? ❓ Why do roots fracture after vestibular bone removal? ❓ How much pressure should be used during elevation? ❓ What is the difference between PerioVive and OralVive? ❓ Does hyaluronic acid need to "stay in place" to be effective? ❓ Should hyaluronic acid be used in every extraction site? ❓ Is a blood clot considered a bone graft? ❓ When should a tooth with severe bone loss be saved instead of extracted? ❓ How important is owner compliance in periodontal case selection? ❓ Is there still any indication for ClinDoral use?

Episode 293 continues with Jeremy Lee, Joe Poirot, and Ryan Veres of Burbank Sports Cards, digging into how Ryan values cards when speed matters: gut feel versus comp tools, why blanket “percentage” buying is a broken way to think, and how eye appeal can completely change the number even when the grade is the same. We also get an update on Burbank's eBay status and the ongoing transition toward Fanatics Collect, why offers sometimes went unanswered in the past and what's changed operationally, plus the real on-the-ground reality of TCG taking up more table space at local shows and what promoters can do about it. Ryan also shares practical advice for anyone opening a shop: build relationships with other store owners, create a strong local network, and do not rely on straight distribution if you want to survive. From there, the conversation touches on what it's like running a bucket list store, whether Burbank worries about copycats, and the competitive mindset that keeps the team sharp. We also get Ryan's perspective on PSA Offers and how Burbank participates as an approved buyer, along with a sober look at shipping theft risks this time of year and why insurance matters when you're moving higher-end cards. We close with talk about the West Coast Card Show and how it feeds the Burbank brand, even if the economics of running a big show can be brutal.

Nearly 70% of U.S. adults now qualify as obese under a new definition that goes beyond body mass index (BMI) to include waist and hip measurements, exposing millions with hidden fat linked to higher disease risk The new standard, developed by an international panel and endorsed by dozens of medical organizations, identifies both clinical obesity — where fat is already harming organs — and preclinical obesity, where fat-driven dysfunction is just beginning Using the expanded criteria, researchers found a 60% surge in obesity prevalence, revealing that about 1 in 4 adults were reclassified as obese — mostly from the overweight group — while roughly 1 in 17 with a "normal" BMI carried hidden visceral fat that raises the risk for diabetes, heart disease, and early death BMI alone fails to distinguish between fat and muscle or between safe subcutaneous fat and harmful visceral fat, meaning many healthy people are misclassified while those at real metabolic risk go undiagnosed Measuring your waist-to-hip or waist-to-height ratio provides a far clearer picture of your metabolic health, empowering you to take early action — through healthy eating, reduced toxin exposure, and daily movement — to restore energy and prevent chronic disease

🧭 REBEL Rundown 🗝️ Key Points ❌ Don’t chase perfect numbers: Adequate and safe is often better than “perfect but harmful.”💨 Oxygenation levers: Start with FiO₂ and PEEP, but remember MAP is the true driver.🫁 Ventilation levers: Adjust RR and TV, tailored to underlying physiology.🚫 Watch your obstructive patients: Sometimes less RR is more. Click here for Direct Download of the Podcast. 📝 Introduction Ventilator management can feel overwhelming—there are so many knobs to turn, numbers to watch, and changes to make. But before adjusting any settings, it’s crucial to understand why the patient is in distress in the first place, because the right strategy depends on the underlying cause. In this episode, we’ll walk through three different cases to see how the approach changes depending on the problem at hand. ️ The 4 Main Ventilator Settings Tidal Volume (Vt) 🌬️ Amount of air delivered with each breath Typically set based on ideal body weight (6–8 mL/kg for lung protection) Respiratory Rate (RR) ⏱️ Number of breaths delivered per minute Adjusted to control minute ventilation and manage CO₂ FiO₂ (Fraction of Inspired Oxygen) ⛽ Percentage of oxygen delivered Adjusted to maintain adequate oxygenation (goal SpO₂ 92–96%, PaO₂ 55–80 mmHg). PEEP (Positive End-Expiratory Pressure) 🎈 Pressure maintained in the lungs at the end of exhalation to prevent alveolar collapse and improve oxygenation 🧮 Modes of Ventilation AC/VC (Assist Control – Volume Control)How it Works: Delivers a set tidal volume with each breath (whether patient- or machine-triggered).When It’s Used / Pros: Most common initial mode; guarantees minute ventilation; good for patients with variable effort.Limitations / Cons: May cause patient–ventilator dyssynchrony if set volumes don’t match patient’s demand.AC/PC (Assist Control – Pressure Control)How it Works: Delivers a set inspiratory pressure for each breath; tidal volume varies depending on lung compliance/resistance.When It’s Used / Pros: Useful in ARDS (lung-protective strategy), limits peak airway pressures.Limitations / Cons: Tidal volume not guaranteed; must closely monitor volumes and minute ventilation.PRVC (Pressure-Regulated Volume Control)How it Works: Hybrid: set target tidal volume, ventilator adjusts inspiratory pressure breath-to-breath to achieve it (within limits).When It’s Used / Pros: Common default mode on newer vents; combines benefits of VC (guaranteed volume) + PC (pressure limitation).Limitations / Cons: Can increase pressures if compliance worsens.SIMV (Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation)How it Works: Delivers set breaths, but allows spontaneous patient breaths in between (without guaranteed volume).When It’s Used / Pros: Used for weaning; allows patient effort.Limitations / Cons: Risk of increased work of breathing if spontaneous breaths are inadequate.PSV (Pressure Support Ventilation)How it Works: Every breath is patient-initiated; ventilator provides preset pressure support to overcome airway resistance.When It’s Used / Pros: Weaning trials; patients with intact drive who just need assistance.Limitations / Cons: Not a full-support mode; not for unstable patients without spontaneous drive. ♟️ Ventilation Strategies Airway ProtectionLow GCS, seizure, strokeLoss of gag/cough reflexHigh aspiration risk (vomiting, GI bleed, poor mental status)Hypoxemic Respiratory FailureSevere pneumoniaARDSPulmonary edemaInhalation injuryVentilatory (Hypercapnic) Failure / Increased Ventilation DemandSevere metabolic acidosis (DKA, sepsis, renal failure) → need high minute ventilationCOPD, asthma (if decompensating)Neuromuscular weakness (myasthenia, Guillain–Barré, spinal cord injury)Airway Obstruction / Anticipated Loss of AirwayTumor, anaphylaxis, angioedemaFacial or airway traumaPre-op / anticipated deterioration Post Peer Reviewed By: Marco Propersi, DO (Twitter/X: @Marco_propersi), and Mark Ramzy, DO (X: @MRamzyDO) 👤 Show Notes Priyanka Ramesh, MD PGY 1 Internal Medicine Resident Cape Fear Valley Internal Medicine Residency Program Fayetteville NC Aspiring Pulmonary Critical Care Fellow 🔎 Your Deep-Dive Starts Here REBEL Core Cast – Pediatric Respiratory Emergencies: Beyond Viral Season Welcome to the Rebel Core Content Blog, where we delve ...

WHO DO YOU BLAMEAshley Buchanan: On May 1, 2025, Kohl's board terminated Buchanan “for cause” following an outside investigation overseen by its Audit Committee. The investigation found that Buchanan directed Kohl's to do business with a vendor founded by someone with whom he had a personal relationship. He also caused Kohl's to enter into a multimillion-dollar consulting agreement involving that same person. Crucially, he did not disclose this personal relationship, which was a violation of Kohl's code of ethics.Golden hello: $17m equity and $3.75m cashFormer director Christine Day: Shortly after Buchanan was fired, Day resigned, citing “lack of transparency” and governance concerns. Day said she was frustrated that not all board members were kept informed of risks and that decisions seemed centralized (“Michael ‘handles' everything … then ‘tells' everyone what the decision is”). Kohl's strongly disputed her characterization, saying her resignation was not “due to any disagreements” over operations or practices.Investors: chair Bender named interim CEO 4/30/25… AGM 5/14/2595% yes bender; 55% yes pay; 89% yes Prising; 92% average; new chair 91% John E.

This is the $99 Kumma bear made by FoloToy using OpenAI's service. OpenAI said it was suspending Folotoy for violations of usage of ChatGPT. WHO DO YOU BLAME?:Folotoy, who's founder and CEO Larry Wang calls himself “Chief Geek Officer” and has a background in child psychology and behavioral science… oh, wait, not, he has background in computer science and was founder of a tech telecomm company and was a software developer for insurance before that. But he's obviously qualified to do this: “Kumma, our adorable bear, combines advanced artificial intelligence with friendly, interactive features, making it the perfect friend for both kids and adults. From lively conversations to educational storytelling, FoloToy adapts to your personality and needs, bringing warmth, fun, and a little extra curiosity to your day.”OpenAI - obviously Sam Altman's commitment to “the benefit of humanity” stopped short of “sex advice from baby toys,” even though he says having kids of his own will help him not destroy humanity. I assume he's not getting Sammy Jr a Kumma bear? DROpenAI's board - obviously if they had fired Sam Altman, there wouldn't be sex bears using ChatGPT. But Helen Toner was forced out by the rest of the board, investors, and public pressure - she's since said, “But for years, Sam had made it really difficult for the board to actually do that job by withholding information, misrepresenting things that were happening at the company, in some cases outright lying to the board,” and that Altman gave them, “inaccurate information about the small number of formal safety processes that the company did have in place.” Perhaps Altman said, “no, that teddy bear didn't just say he loved oral sex, that's just a misinterpretation.”Microsoft - Satya, despite misgivings from Bill Gates, threw $10bn at OpenAI in January 2023. In November 2023, the board removed Sam Altman. Turns out Microsoft had released a version of ChatGPT in India that Altman sanctioned outside of safety protocols - the board should have signed off, but Altman lied to them and hid it. But rather than Microsoft pulling back the release and recognizing the damage it could do, they swooped in and “hired” Sam Altman 3 days after his firing. Their $10bn investment might have been the first cog in a sex bear wheel.I'm the Chief People Officer at Walmart. I always wake up to the same U2 song and watch the 'Today' show. That is Donna Morris listening to U2's “Beautiful Day”, the first thing she does is go online, she doesn't drink coffee but drinks Diet Coke (“I've just never been a hot drink type of girl, I guess. I try to limit myself to two Diet Cokes a day, although every once in a while, I sneak in a third.”), she likes buying cookbooks but doesn't use them. Not mentioned: Walmart's DEI rollback, the new CEO coming in, working for a family dictatorship, and any of her colleagues - as chief people officer, there are almost zero people mentioned. WHO DO WE BLAME FOR THIS EXISTING?Professional Conservative Snowflake Robby Starbuck - he claimed Walmart as his first “victory” after Trump's election in the DEI rollback. Post-Starbuck snowflake-ism, Morris might have had a job managing humans, but now her job is basically to send pink slips and make sure there aren't TOO many swastikas in the bathroom stall. A few is fine, but c'mon. So to pass the time, Morris is stuck giving interviews to Business Insider.Business Insider, who must have known Morris had the potential to give an insipid review of her day when this was her excuse for Walmart's DEI rollback: "When you talk about diversity, equity, inclusion, all in part, there can be communities, and often the largest communities, that step back and say, 'Geez, I'm not sure if I'm even actually included'," Morris explained of the decision. Which echoes… ROBBY FUCKING STARBUCK, who said to anyone who would listen: "This is the biggest win yet for our movement to end wokeness in corporate America. This won't just have a massive effect for their employees who will have a neutral workplace without feeling that divisive issues are being injected but it will also extend to their many suppliers."Donna Morris, because as only we covered here when discussing the corporate move to blame the employees for every problem and getting fired, had this to say of her biggest red flag on an employee: “Nobody wants [to hire] a Debbie Downer. [Someone who is] constantly negative. You know they're going to show up [and] they're going to bring the problem, never the solution.” Literally, the JOB of HR is to field COMPLAINTS from employees about how their managers treat them - or is it too Debbie Downer to complain about racial discrimination of employees?Walmart's board - they must have signed off on Morris getting hired, right? Or a Walton? Someone somewhere thought this was a good idea? Take your pick:CFO of OpenAI Sarah Friar (who said OpenAI would need a government backstop, then clarified)Brian Niccol, the CEO of Starbucks who was given a golden hello, a golden parachute, and probably a golden shower, who just named to a “worst CEO” listThe current AND former CEO of WalmartSteuart Walton, who couldn't bother to even be named “Stuart” (he had to spell it with an extra “E”) with a claim to fame of marrying a Baywatch reboot actress, and Greg Penner, the son-in-law of a different Walton and snuck his way onto the board AND as co-owner of the Denver BroncosTom Horton, retired American Airlines CEO who was CFO of American for years right before they declared bankruptcy, but somehow is remembered for “restructuring” them instead of bankrupting them?Marissa Mayer - yes, that Mayer, formerly of YahooNot one, but TWO different consultantsRandall Stephenson, ex AT&T CEO, who, if I'm honest, seems to have actual integrity and I'm not sure why he's here, plus two DEI directors (because they're not white, so probably not qualified)

The Red Wings are one of the strangest teams in the NHL right now. By straight win percentage, Detroit ranks like a top-10 team. But watch the games — or just check the box scores — and you see a team that either plays fast, structured, playoff-caliber hockey … or completely falls apart for long stretches. In this episode, we break down why the Wings keep swinging between dominant and disastrous, including: Why their win percentage paints a WAY better picture than their actual record The standings favor loser points — we don't. When you sort the NHL by actual wins per game, Detroit sits in the top third of the league. The goaltending problem that's draining winnable games John Gibson allows 4 goals on 1.86 expected against Chicago. Talbot and Gibson rank bottom-10 in Goals Saved Above Expected. Detroit has the 6th-worst team save percentage. This team isn't getting average goaltending — and it's costing them points. Why the Red Wings get tons of possession but no scoring Detroit is top-10 in: Corsi For % Fenwick For % But near the bottom in: High-danger chances created High-danger shooting percentage They generate quantity, not quality — a huge problem for a team missing finishers outside of Larkin and DeBrincat. What's wrong with the top six? Emmitt Finnie may be skating hard, but is there enough skill next to Larkin and Kane? Raymond is still recovering. Kasper looks like a passenger, not a driver. Patrick Kane is back, but still not at full speed — and the power play looks lost without his timing. Why this might be mental, not just talent Todd McLellan has already said it: Detroit still struggles with game management, consistency, and responding to adversity. They look great when they're “on”… …and downright broken when they're “off.” Red Wings Rant: Where tirades and impassioned pleas about your Detroit Red Wings finally have a home.

In this week's episode of Barbell Shrugged, Anders Varner, Doug Larson, Coach Travis Mash, and Dr. Chris Perry dive deep into the real science of muscle mass, why it's the single most important tissue in the human body and what happens when you don't have enough of it. They cover everything from how muscle mass impacts disease risk, hormone balance, metabolism, and injury prevention to why being "under-muscled" may be just as dangerous as being overweight. Dr. Perry explains how strength training and nutrition can reverse age-related muscle loss and why the decade between your mid-30s and mid-40s is the most critical window for building a foundation of health and longevity. The crew breaks down what healthy muscle mass standards actually look like for men and women across different age groups and introduces a new way to measure it. RAPID Health's new partnership with Springbok Analytics uses MRI imaging to directly quantify muscle tissue, pinpoint asymmetries, and reveal where strength or mobility imbalances may be putting you at risk. For the first time, anyone, not just pro athletes or research labs, can see their true muscle mass percentage and track real progress over time. The conversation wraps with practical takeaways for training and nutrition: how often to lift, how hard to push, and how much protein you need per meal as you age. They explain why cardio and resistance training both matter, how to optimize your muscle-to-fat ratio, and why "getting jacked" is one of the best health investments you can make. Learn more about RAPID's new MRI-driven Muscle Health and Performance program launching this week in Austin, TX go to OptimaMuscle.com beginning on Monday Nov 17th to learn more and get started.

Russia's Winter Strikes on Ukrainian Energy and the Battle for Pokrovsk. John Hardie discusses how Russia is escalating its winter campaign against Ukrainian energy infrastructure using a higher percentage of hard-to-intercept ballistic missiles and drones. This aims to break Ukrainian will and create leverage for negotiations. On the front, the battle for Pokrovsk is difficult, with Russians infiltrating the city and disrupting logistics using fiber-optic-controlled FPV drones. Although Ukraine has succeeded in attriting Russian forces there, preserving manpower by avoiding a late withdrawal remains a critical concern.
