FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessagePope Francis's recent passing marks the end of a transformative and deeply controversial 12-year pontificate that reshaped the Catholic Church in profound ways. What will be his ultimate legacy? Four essential books offer contrasting perspectives that help us understand the full picture.Austin Ivory's "The Great Reformer" and "Wounded Shepherd" present Francis as a spiritual director guiding the Church toward greater humility and mercy. The author describes Francis's impact as "like an earthquake...moving and shaking things up and in that shaking up, what will fall is what has to fall and what will rise up is a new era in the history of the church." This sympathetic view portrays Francis as a holy man committed to reforming Church structures while maintaining its spiritual essence.On the other side, Father Gerald Murray's "Calming the Storm" and Trent Horn's "Confusion in the Kingdom" critique what they see as progressive overreach during Francis's papacy. They argue that efforts to reach the "peripheries" and create a "field hospital" Church sometimes came at the expense of clear moral teaching. As Horn writes, "The liberal Catholicism I have critiqued in this book fails the people who need God and his church the most. It causes them to downplay the spiritual hazard of certain sins."These contrasting perspectives reflect the real divisions Francis's leadership created among Catholics worldwide. His reforms around marriage, synodality, and liturgy generated both passionate support and fierce resistance. Whether viewed as necessary modernization or dangerous accommodation to secular values, Francis undeniably leaves behind a Church grappling and confused with fundamental questions about its identity and mission.As we pray for the repose of Francis's soul during this traditional mourning period, we might remember that if there's one thing he would want to be remembered for, it's his emphasis on God's boundless mercy – a message that transcends the political and theological debates his papacy inspired. Correction:   I referenced "Pinochet as Argentina's leader," that is incorrect.  I meant to reference Jorge Rafael Videla which was the leader who overthrew the Peron govt in the 1970's during Argentinas "Dirty War" era.   My apologies.   Key points:• "The Great Reformer" by Austin Ivory traces Jorge Bergoglio's journey from Buenos Aires to the Vatican• Ivory's second book "Wounded Shepherd" offers a more nuanced view, comparing Francis's impact to an earthquake reshaping the Church• Father Gerald Murray's "Calming the Storm" critiques Francis's reforms for creating confusion rather than clarity• Trent Horn's "Confusion in the Kingdom" examines how progressive Catholicism is bringing harm to the Church• These books collectively reveal the tensions between mercy and doctrine, reform and tradition• The Francis pontificate leaves behind significant fault lines that will shape the Church's future directionPlease pray for the repose of the soul of Pope Francis and remember his emphasis on God's mercy for all sinners.Other resources:Substack written piece "A Papacy of Milestones and Confusion"Want to leave a review?

Ets è il Sistema europeo di scambio di quote di emissione di gas a effetto serra ed è il principale strumento adottato da Bruxelles per raggiungere gli obiettivi di riduzione della Co2 in vari settori, quindi gradualmente anche per i trasporti.Dal 1° gennaio è scattato per quelli marittimi e nel 2027 con l’Ets 2 riguarderà anche il trasporto di merci su strada. “Le imprese devono prepararsi, però chiediamo alla politica che questo costo debba essere trasparente per evitare che poi il consumatore finale si veda costretto a pagare più volte questo Ets quanto acquista un prodotto”, dice Alessandro Peron, segretario generale di Fiap.Dal 15 dicembre il “Rentri”, Registro Elettronico Nazionale per la Tracciabilità dei Rifiuti, sarà pienamente operativo. Ne parliamo con Daniele Gizzi, presidente dell’Albo nazionale dei gestori ambientali.

I was hired to find lost Nazi gold. I found Ariella instead.Based on a post by ronde, in 2 parts. Listen to the ► Podcast at Steamy Stories.The shiny, black, Mercedes X-Class pickup slowly worked its way down the road about a hundred meters from where I was crouched behind a rock. The fact the pickup was alone and had an M 60 machine gun on a pintle mount in the bed told me this wasn’t some unit of the Argentine Army. The Argentine Army might have been driving a Mercedes pickup, but it would have been OD green and the machine gun would have been an FN Mag.The woman nudged me then.“They’ll be on top of us in a few minutes. I’ll take out the truck driver and the M 60. That’ll slow them down while they’re trying to figure out where the shots came from. They might run then, but if they don’t it’ll take both of us to take out the rest. Are you ready for that?”I was ready, because I knew if we didn’t take out all of them, we’d be running for our lives. I’d experienced that before. I was a former US Army Ranger with two tours of Afghanistan under my belt before I decided civilian life would be a whole lot healthier.I had no reservations about what we had to do, though it was going to be tough. With it’s short barrel, iron sights, and a tendency to overheat if fired quickly, the HK G 36 C carbine I carried lost accuracy fast after about two hundred meters, so they’d have to be closer than that. I could use the old “spray and pray” technique used by some US Army soldiers before the M4 came out with a selector switch for a three round burst instead of just full-auto fire. The problem with that was I only had a hundred and twenty rounds and they wouldn’t last long if I did that. After that, all I had was a 9 millimeter Browning pistol. They’d have to be a lot closer before I had any chance of putting even one down with that.The woman was in better shape for long range shooting. The Israeli M 89 SR rifle she was crouched behind was accurate out to about a thousand meters if she knew what she was doing, and if she did, the thirty rounds in her magazine would be more than sufficient.She let the truck get to about seventy-five meters from our position and then put one 7.62  millimeter round through the windshield. The driver slumped down in the seat at the same time her second shot hit the M60 just behind the operating handle and effectively froze the action. The truck turned sharply into a rock and then the engine died. The whole thing couldn’t have taken more than about five seconds. The woman definitely knew her way around a rifle.The three guys in the truck bed and the one left in the cab bailed out, got behind the truck, and started looking for the shooter. They were going to have a difficult time finding us. The suppressor on the M89SR effectively hid any muzzle flash and any dust caused by the gasses exiting the barrel. It also reduced the sound enough that it would be difficult for the guys to pinpoint it since the echo from the mountains made the sound seem to come from all directions.The woman and I watched them for the next five minutes, and it became obvious they weren’t battle-trained troops. They were probably considered a serious threat by the local population, but to me they were just amateurs; well-equipped amateurs, but still amateurs.They were well equipped because they had money, and money was the reason I was in Argentina in the first place. Meeting the woman was just a lucky accident. Well, that’s what I thought at the time. I later found out it was no accident.How it all started.The whole thing started six weeks before I found myself with the woman crouched behind a rock and waiting to see what the guys behind the truck were going to do next.After separating myself from the US Army, I needed some way to keep myself indoors and fed. When I looked at what I knew how to do, planning for close combat and then executing that plan was all I could come up with.Given the domestic and political climate at the time, a lot of former military men were running self defense schools. After reading about a few of the schools, I decided I could make some money that way too.I’d been deployed for much of my Army career so most of my Army pay was sitting in my bank. I used half of what I had as a down payment on fifty acres in Eastern Tennessee with a house and barn on it, and built a pistol and rifle range.I was doing OK, teaching a class a couple times a week in basic gun safety and giving the Tennessee concealed-carry class and test. The other days, I taught advanced courses in long-range rifle shooting and rapid-fire pistol shooting. I also sold targets and ammunition. I wasn’t getting rich, but I was able to make the mortgage payments, put food on the table, and keep my fridge stocked with beer.One afternoon after I’d finished up my class on accurate rapid pistol fire, I was policing brass from the range when a guy in a suit and tie walked up and stuck out his hand. He introduced himself as Marcus Richter.“Mr. Dale Stevenson; did I get your name right? Ah, good. Mr. Stevenson, I understand you have somewhat of a unique background, a background I would find useful if you agree to my proposal.”I figured he’d gotten that information from my web site. I thought “US Army Ranger” sounded better than “former military” like some of the school web sites used.I shrugged.“I can teach you how to fire a weapon and how to defend yourself in an emergency if that’s what you mean.”He shook his head.“No, though the thought has crossed my mind. Fortunately, I have people who take care of those duties for me."No, I’m a successful business man in a rather unique business. I trade in world currencies. It is that business that resulted in my visit to your establishment today. I fear the explanation of that business will be quite lengthy, so would it be possible to find a place where we might sit down and out of the sun?”I’d converted part of the barn into a classroom for my classes, so I led the man there. Once we were seated, he cleared his throat.“As I said, I am a trader in world currencies and that includes gold and silver in its many forms, from coinage to bullion. My business is of necessity rather secretive, for were some in the precious metal market to have advanced knowledge of my activities, it would have an impact upon the world pricing of said precious metals. It is such advanced knowledge I hope to exploit to my advantage if you agree to perform a service for me, a service for which you will be very well compensated.”I wasn’t entirely convinced this guy was on the level, but I had no reason to stop listening to him.I smiled.“It sounds like you have some sort of secret mission you want me to do for you.”He smiled.“Yes, secrecy is of the utmost importance. When you hear the details, you will understand why."As you probably know, in the last stages of World War Two, many high-ranking members of the Nazi party and German military realized any favorable outcome to the war was an impossibility. Germany would be defeated and given the atrocities committed, those same people would be prosecuted for war crimes, found guilty, and imprisoned or executed."They began making plans to escape before they were captured by the Allies. Argentina was neutral during the war and indeed declared war on the Axis powers a month before the war in Europe ended, but many in Argentina were still sympathetic toward Germany. As a result, Argentina was viewed as a possible haven by those attempting to escape what would surely be their ultimate fate."Argentina, in fact, encouraged those high-ranking people to come there. It is well known that many were able to successfully leave Germany and take up residence in Argentina. The efforts of some Israeli organizations that were able to locate some of them and transport them back to Israel for trial is a testimony to that fact."What is not well known is how those same people funded their escape and managed to live in Argentina until they were able to find employment. There are suspicions of the transfer of gold either before or after their escape, but no proof. What is known is there were large caches of gold the Nazi’s looted from the countries and people they overran in the early stages of the war."While much of that gold was gold bars plundered from the repositories in Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland, a significant amount was in the gold taken from individuals. To date, some of that gold has been recovered, but a sizeable portion has not and there are only rumors as to its location, until about a month ago."Ah, shall we say, a friend of a friend mentioned he had been offered a small bar of gold bullion bearing the imprint of the Heraeus Corporation of Germany. I do not know if you know of this German company, but Heraeus has been in the business of refining and producing precious metals since the late 1800’s when they discovered a method of melting platinum."During World War Two, one small gold smelting facility of the Heraeus corporation located on the outskirts of Hanau, Germany was taken over by the Nazi party, managed by Nazi party members, and slave labor was used for the smelting process. They began melting the gold looted from the countries occupied by the German Army into bullion. The bullion was stamped with the hallmark of the Heraeus corporation in order to make it appear to be legitimate, though the Heraeus company per se had nothing to do with the operation."This knowledge has been common since the war ended, but what happened to the gold bullion produced by the Nazi controlled factory has been unknown until this single bar of bullion was offered to this friend of my friend. The offer was made in somewhat secretive circumstances and the design of the hallmark dated to the period of the Second World War. These two things intrigued this friend of my friend and also intrigued me."My interest was passing until I spoke to a man who wished to buy gold as an investment. He related a tale told by his grandfather of watching U-boats berthed at Helgoland, Germany when he was twelve years old. His grandfather had watched the U-boats before as they were fueled, armed, and then sent back out to sea. On a few occasions, this was not the case."According to his story, over the course of a week, several men in prison uniforms loaded six submarines with wooden cases that appeared much too heavy to be supplies and not large enough to hold munitions. He thought it unusual that they did not load any torpedoes as they always had before, but assumed the submarines were supply submarines used to re-supply U-boats at sea."Once the submarines were loaded, the men in prison uniforms were taken away and a few men in the uniform of the German navy went on board, but not in the same numbers this man had seen before. Instead of a full crew, a number of men in business dress also boarded the submarines. The submarines then left port. Three months later, those same six submarines were again docked in Helgoland and were being once again loaded as before. This cycle was repeated two more times before he witnessed the same submarines being loaded with torpedoes and manned by full crews of the German Navy."Another very interesting event happened in Argentina at the end of the war. Juan Peron was elected president and set about nationalizing industries and services while at the same time raising the wages of workers. Most importantly, he paid off the entire amount of externally held Argentine debt."Because Argentina does mine native gold and silver ore, I have people there to keep me informed about the latest developments. When I heard the stories about the bar of gold bullion and the German submarines and put that story into the context of what I know about the country, I asked my people there to do some research into the matter. The report I received a few weeks ago offered some tantalizing conclusions."At the end of the war, Argentina had external debt amounting to about two hundred million US Dollars. When Peron was elected President, he settled the national debt with payments in gold bullion, which is understandable because gold is the currency of the world. What is not understandable is where Peron was able to find enough gold to do that without bankrupting the country. The entire gold reserves of Argentina at the time were about two hundred and fifty million US dollars. He would have had to drain most of those reserves, but apparently did not. He continued to implement his policies by using that same gold reserve."My people were not able to identify how that situation changed so rapidly once Peron was in office nor the source of the gold with which he paid the Argentine debt. They were able to report that prior to settling that debt, the Argentine government ceased operations of a small, older smelter in the foothills of the Andes near Mendoza to bring that facility up to the level of current technology. They learned this from an old man who had been employed at the smelter in his youth. He said he was sent home and told to not report for work for two months."The man was interested in what changes were going to be made so over the course of seven weeks, he watched the activities at the smelter. He related to my people that the first week, he saw many trucks drive into the smelter and each truck had armed guards who were all tall men who looked European. He could not see what they did in the smelter, but he did notice the smokestack continued to emit smoke just as it had when the smelter was operating."A week before his two month furlough was to end, he witnessed those same trucks with the same armed guards drive out of the smelter and take the road that led to Buenos Aires. He also said when he returned to work, there was little difference from how the smelter had operated before.”I wasn’t sure what all this had to do with me. When I asked, his face became grim.“What I and my people believe is that a very large amount of gold was shipped to Argentina by the Nazis on submarines and used to pay the Argentine government for allowing them to stay there. That is the only explanation for how Peron was able to find the gold to pay off the national debt. It is also an explanation for the unusual loading of the submarine and for the bar of gold bullion offered to, as I said, a friend of a friend. The smelter was shut down in order to melt the Nazi gold and then recast it into bullion that bore the Argentine hallmark.”I was still confused.“OK, that’s all well and good, but again, what does that have to do with me?”He placed his hands on the table between us and smiled.“I want to pay you to find the rest of the Nazi gold.”Now, I was confused again.“The rest? I thought you said they melted it all down and recast it.”He shook his head and chuckled.“I said they melted and recast enough to pay off the Argentine debt, not that they melted and recast all the gold. The total amount of gold plundered by the Nazis is not accurately known, but it has been estimated at nearly two billion US dollars in the currency of the day. About a fourth of that can be reasonably accounted for as it was transferred to various banks in neutral countries, though some of those transfers are disputed. The rest has never been found."It is my estimate that the Nazis shipped at least four hundred tons of gold to Argentina on those submarines. In the currency of the day, that would be about half a billion US dollars. In 1945, the Argentine debt was about two hundred million US dollars. That leaves us with a difference of about three hundred million which would be a little over one and a half billion US dollars at today’s market price.”I said I didn’t think that was feasible because of the weight of gold. It wouldn’t fit on a submarine. He smiled.“Yes, gold is heavy but also very dense and does not require much space. The normal armament for a U-boat of the type loaded at Helgoland was fourteen torpedoes that weighed a little over a ton and a half each. Each submarine could have carried over twenty tons of gold if the torpedoes were not on board. The six submarines making four trips could have carried that much gold and many passengers. With a range of about nine thousand nautical miles, they could easily have made the trip from Germany to Argentina and back in about three months at sea.It sounded like another Nazi conspiracy theory to me, but it was interesting so I decided to play along for a while."So, you want me to find this gold and then what? Hire a bunch of trucks to bring it back to the US?”He smiled and shook his head.“No. I only want you to confirm its location from the information my people have developed after almost a year of research. Near Mendoza in Mendoza province, my people located the ruins of what they described as a replica of The Berghof, Hitler’s residence in Bavaria. The surrounding area is mostly unpopulated now, but was once the site of a now closed led mine. We believe the building was built to house German Army and SS officers who fled Germany and surmise the gold must have been secreted in the led mine. Once you have confirmed the gold is indeed at that location, others will orchestrate its removal and transport.That little bell in your head that tells you something’s not right started to ring."Mr. Richter, if your people know where it is, why don’t those others you talked about confirm the gold is there and then remove it?”He pursed his lips.“My people in Argentina are carefully watched by the Argentine government to detect any financial dealings they might attempt. It is highly likely some in the Argentine government are also aware of their findings. Were my people to investigate that mine, well, the current government of Argentina would consider the gold to be the property of Argentina. It is not, but Argentina would be very upset were they to find it has been discovered and removed from the country.”The little bell in my head was now clanging.“So what you’re asking me to do is illegal? I don’t much like the idea of spending time in an Argentine prison.”He shook his head.“Your involvement will only be to locate and enter an abandoned and unguarded mine, confirm with photographs that the gold is there, and then bring those photographs and an accurate location back to me. It will be as if you were a tourist seeing the countryside and just happened upon the mine during your travels. There is nothing illegal about that."You will be well compensated for your efforts. I am prepared to offer you transportation to and from Argentina, a vehicle and other equipment for your use while there, and the sum of one hundred thousand dollars. I have arranged for twenty thousand dollars to be transferred to your bank account immediately upon your arrival in Argentina and commencement of your search. You will, of course, be provided with a small sum for travel expenses. The balance will be transferred upon your return, assuming you are successful. If not, the transfer will be for an additional twenty thous

I later found out it was no accident.How it all started.The whole thing started six weeks before I found myself with the woman crouched behind a rock and waiting to see what the guys behind the truck were going to do next.After separating myself from the US Army, I needed some way to keep myself indoors and fed. When I looked at what I knew how to do, planning for close combat and then executing that plan was all I could come up with.Given the domestic and political climate at the time, a lot of former military men were running self defense schools. After reading about a few of the schools, I decided I could make some money that way too.I’d been deployed for much of my Army career so most of my Army pay was sitting in my bank. I used half of what I had as a down payment on fifty acres in Eastern Tennessee with a house and barn on it, and built a pistol and rifle range.I was doing OK, teaching a class a couple times a week in basic gun safety and giving the Tennessee concealed-carry class and test. The other days, I taught advanced courses in long-range rifle shooting and rapid-fire pistol shooting. I also sold targets and ammunition. I wasn’t getting rich, but I was able to make the mortgage payments, put food on the table, and keep my fridge stocked with beer.One afternoon after I’d finished up my class on accurate rapid pistol fire, I was policing brass from the range when a guy in a suit and tie walked up and stuck out his hand. He introduced himself as Marcus Richter.“Mr. Dale Stevenson; did I get your name right? Ah, good. Mr. Stevenson, I understand you have somewhat of a unique background, a background I would find useful if you agree to my proposal.”I figured he’d gotten that information from my web site. I thought “US Army Ranger” sounded better than “former military” like some of the school web sites used.I shrugged.“I can teach you how to fire a weapon and how to defend yourself in an emergency if that’s what you mean.”He shook his head.“No, though the thought has crossed my mind. Fortunately, I have people who take care of those duties for me."No, I’m a successful business man in a rather unique business. I trade in world currencies. It is that business that resulted in my visit to your establishment today. I fear the explanation of that business will be quite lengthy, so would it be possible to find a place where we might sit down and out of the sun?”I’d converted part of the barn into a classroom for my classes, so I led the man there. Once we were seated, he cleared his throat.“As I said, I am a trader in world currencies and that includes gold and silver in its many forms, from coinage to bullion. My business is of necessity rather secretive, for were some in the precious metal market to have advanced knowledge of my activities, it would have an impact upon the world pricing of said precious metals. It is such advanced knowledge I hope to exploit to my advantage if you agree to perform a service for me, a service for which you will be very well compensated.”I wasn’t entirely convinced this guy was on the level, but I had no reason to stop listening to him.I smiled.“It sounds like you have some sort of secret mission you want me to do for you.”He smiled.“Yes, secrecy is of the utmost importance. When you hear the details, you will understand why."As you probably know, in the last stages of World War Two, many high-ranking members of the Nazi party and German military realized any favorable outcome to the war was an impossibility. Germany would be defeated and given the atrocities committed, those same people would be prosecuted for war crimes, found guilty, and imprisoned or executed."They began making plans to escape before they were captured by the Allies. Argentina was neutral during the war and indeed declared war on the Axis powers a month before the war in Europe ended, but many in Argentina were still sympathetic toward Germany. As a result, Argentina was viewed as a possible haven by those attempting to escape what would surely be their ultimate fate."Argentina, in fact, encouraged those high-ranking people to come there. It is well known that many were able to successfully leave Germany and take up residence in Argentina. The efforts of some Israeli organizations that were able to locate some of them and transport them back to Israel for trial is a testimony to that fact."What is not well known is how those same people funded their escape and managed to live in Argentina until they were able to find employment. There are suspicions of the transfer of gold either before or after their escape, but no proof. What is known is there were large caches of gold the Nazi’s looted from the countries and people they overran in the early stages of the war."While much of that gold was gold bars plundered from the repositories in Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Poland, a significant amount was in the gold taken from individuals. To date, some of that gold has been recovered, but a sizeable portion has not and there are only rumors as to its location, until about a month ago."Ah, shall we say, a friend of a friend mentioned he had been offered a small bar of gold bullion bearing the imprint of the Heraeus Corporation of Germany. I do not know if you know of this German company, but Heraeus has been in the business of refining and producing precious metals since the late 1800’s when they discovered a method of melting platinum."During World War Two, one small gold smelting facility of the Heraeus corporation located on the outskirts of Hanau, Germany was taken over by the Nazi party, managed by Nazi party members, and slave labor was used for the smelting process. They began melting the gold looted from the countries occupied by the German Army into bullion. The bullion was stamped with the hallmark of the Heraeus corporation in order to make it appear to be legitimate, though the Heraeus company per se had nothing to do with the operation."This knowledge has been common since the war ended, but what happened to the gold bullion produced by the Nazi controlled factory has been unknown until this single bar of bullion was offered to this friend of my friend. The offer was made in somewhat secretive circumstances and the design of the hallmark dated to the period of the Second World War. These two things intrigued this friend of my friend and also intrigued me."My interest was passing until I spoke to a man who wished to buy gold as an investment. He related a tale told by his grandfather of watching U-boats berthed at Helgoland, Germany when he was twelve years old. His grandfather had watched the U-boats before as they were fueled, armed, and then sent back out to sea. On a few occasions, this was not the case."According to his story, over the course of a week, several men in prison uniforms loaded six submarines with wooden cases that appeared much too heavy to be supplies and not large enough to hold munitions. He thought it unusual that they did not load any torpedoes as they always had before, but assumed the submarines were supply submarines used to re-supply U-boats at sea."Once the submarines were loaded, the men in prison uniforms were taken away and a few men in the uniform of the German navy went on board, but not in the same numbers this man had seen before. Instead of a full crew, a number of men in business dress also boarded the submarines. The submarines then left port. Three months later, those same six submarines were again docked in Helgoland and were being once again loaded as before. This cycle was repeated two more times before he witnessed the same submarines being loaded with torpedoes and manned by full crews of the German Navy."Another very interesting event happened in Argentina at the end of the war. Juan Peron was elected president and set about nationalizing industries and services while at the same time raising the wages of workers. Most importantly, he paid off the entire amount of externally held Argentine debt."Because Argentina does mine native gold and silver ore, I have people there to keep me informed about the latest developments. When I heard the stories about the bar of gold bullion and the German submarines and put that story into the context of what I know about the country, I asked my people there to do some research into the matter. The report I received a few weeks ago offered some tantalizing conclusions."At the end of the war, Argentina had external debt amounting to about two hundred million US Dollars. When Peron was elected President, he settled the national debt with payments in gold bullion, which is understandable because gold is the currency of the world. What is not understandable is where Peron was able to find enough gold to do that without bankrupting the country. The entire gold reserves of Argentina at the time were about two hundred and fifty million US dollars. He would have had to drain most of those reserves, but apparently did not. He continued to implement his policies by using that same gold reserve."My people were not able to identify how that situation changed so rapidly once Peron was in office nor the source of the gold with which he paid the Argentine debt. They were able to report that prior to settling that debt, the Argentine government ceased operations of a small, older smelter in the foothills of the Andes near Mendoza to bring that facility up to the level of current technology. They learned this from an old man who had been employed at the smelter in his youth. He said he was sent home and told to not report for work for two months."The man was interested in what changes were going to be made so over the course of seven weeks, he watched the activities at the smelter. He related to my people that the first week, he saw many trucks drive into the smelter and each truck had armed guards who were all tall men who looked European. He could not see what they did in the smelter, but he did notice the smokestack continued to emit smoke just as it had when the smelter was operating."A week before his two month furlough was to end, he witnessed those same trucks with the same armed guards drive out of the smelter and take the road that led to Buenos Aires. He also said when he returned to work, there was little difference from how the smelter had operated before.”I wasn’t sure what all this had to do with me. When I asked, his face became grim.“What I and my people believe is that a very large amount of gold was shipped to Argentina by the Nazis on submarines and used to pay the Argentine government for allowing them to stay there. That is the only explanation for how Peron was able to find the gold to pay off the national debt. It is also an explanation for the unusual loading of the submarine and for the bar of gold bullion offered to, as I said, a friend of a friend. The smelter was shut down in order to melt the Nazi gold and then recast it into bullion that bore the Argentine hallmark.”I was still confused.“OK, that’s all well and good, but again, what does that have to do with me?”He placed his hands on the table between us and smiled.“I want to pay you to find the rest of the Nazi gold.”Now, I was confused again.“The rest? I thought you said they melted it all down and recast it.”He shook his head and chuckled.“I said they melted and recast enough to pay off the Argentine debt, not that they melted and recast all the gold. The total amount of gold plundered by the Nazis is not accurately known, but it has been estimated at nearly two billion US dollars in the currency of the day. About a fourth of that can be reasonably accounted for as it was transferred to various banks in neutral countries, though some of those transfers are disputed. The rest has never been found."It is my estimate that the Nazis shipped at least four hundred tons of gold to Argentina on those submarines. In the currency of the day, that would be about half a billion US dollars. In 1945, the Argentine debt was about two hundred million US dollars. That leaves us with a difference of about three hundred million which would be a little over one and a half billion US dollars at today’s market price.”I said I didn’t think that was feasible because of the weight of gold. It wouldn’t fit on a submarine. He smiled.“Yes, gold is heavy but also very dense and does not require much space. The normal armament for a U-boat of the type loaded at Helgoland was fourteen torpedoes that weighed a little over a ton and a half each. Each submarine could have carried over twenty tons of gold if the torpedoes were not on board. The six submarines making four trips could have carried that much gold and many passengers. With a range of about nine thousand nautical miles, they could easily have made the trip from Germany to Argentina and back in about three months at sea.It sounded like another Nazi conspiracy theory to me, but it was interesting so I decided to play along for a while."So, you want me to find this gold and then what? Hire a bunch of trucks to bring it back to the US?”He smiled and shook his head.“No. I only want you to confirm its location from the information my people have developed after almost a year of research. Near Mendoza in Mendoza province, my people located the ruins of what they described as a replica of The Berghof, Hitler’s residence in Bavaria. The surrounding area is mostly unpopulated now, but was once the site of a now closed led mine. We believe the building was built to house German Army and SS officers who fled Germany and surmise the gold must have been secreted in the led mine. Once you have confirmed the gold is indeed at that location, others will orchestrate its removal and transport.That little bell in your head that tells you something’s not right started to ring."Mr. Richter, if your people know where it is, why don’t those others you talked about confirm the gold is there and then remove it?”He pursed his lips.“My people in Argentina are carefully watched by the Argentine government to detect any financial dealings they might attempt. It is highly likely some in the Argentine government are also aware of their findings. Were my people to investigate that mine, well, the current government of Argentina would consider the gold to be the property of Argentina. It is not, but Argentina would be very upset were they to find it has been discovered and removed from the country.”The little bell in my head was now clanging.“So what you’re asking me to do is illegal? I don’t much like the idea of spending time in an Argentine prison.”He shook his head.“Your involvement will only be to locate and enter an abandoned and unguarded mine, confirm with photographs that the gold is there, and then bring those photographs and an accurate location back to me. It will be as if you were a tourist seeing the countryside and just happened upon the mine during your travels. There is nothing illegal about that."You will be well compensated for your efforts. I am prepared to offer you transportation to and from Argentina, a vehicle and other equipment for your use while there, and the sum of one hundred thousand dollars. I have arranged for twenty thousand dollars to be transferred to your bank account immediately upon your arrival in Argentina and commencement of your search. You will, of course, be provided with a small sum for travel expenses. The balance will be transferred upon your return, assuming you are successful. If not, the transfer will be for an additional twenty thous

I was hired to find lost Nazi gold. I found Ariella instead.Based on a post by ronde, in 2 parts. Listen to the ► Podcast at Steamy Stories.The shiny, black, Mercedes X-Class pickup slowly worked its way down the road about a hundred meters from where I was crouched behind a rock. The fact the pickup was alone and had an M 60 machine gun on a pintle mount in the bed told me this wasn’t some unit of the Argentine Army. The Argentine Army might have been driving a Mercedes pickup, but it would have been OD green and the machine gun would have been an FN Mag.The woman nudged me then.“They’ll be on top of us in a few minutes. I’ll take out the truck driver and the M 60. That’ll slow them down while they’re trying to figure out where the shots came from. They might run then, but if they don’t it’ll take both of us to take out the rest. Are you ready for that?”I was ready, because I knew if we didn’t take out all of them, we’d be running for our lives. I’d experienced that before. I was a former US Army Ranger with two tours of Afghanistan under my belt before I decided civilian life would be a whole lot healthier.I had no reservations about what we had to do, though it was going to be tough. With it’s short barrel, iron sights, and a tendency to overheat if fired quickly, the HK G 36 C carbine I carried lost accuracy fast after about two hundred meters, so they’d have to be closer than that. I could use the old “spray and pray” technique used by some US Army soldiers before the M4 came out with a selector switch for a three round burst instead of just full-auto fire. The problem with that was I only had a hundred and twenty rounds and they wouldn’t last long if I did that. After that, all I had was a 9 millimeter Browning pistol. They’d have to be a lot closer before I had any chance of putting even one down with that.The woman was in better shape for long range shooting. The Israeli M 89 SR rifle she was crouched behind was accurate out to about a thousand meters if she knew what she was doing, and if she did, the thirty rounds in her magazine would be more than sufficient.She let the truck get to about seventy-five meters from our position and then put one 7.62  millimeter round through the windshield. The driver slumped down in the seat at the same time her second shot hit the M60 just behind the operating handle and effectively froze the action. The truck turned sharply into a rock and then the engine died. The whole thing couldn’t have taken more than about five seconds. The woman definitely knew her way around a rifle.The three guys in the truck bed and the one left in the cab bailed out, got behind the truck, and started looking for the shooter. They were going to have a difficult time finding us. The suppressor on the M89SR effectively hid any muzzle flash and any dust caused by the gasses exiting the barrel. It also reduced the sound enough that it would be difficult for the guys to pinpoint it since the echo from the mountains made the sound seem to come from all directions.The woman and I watched them for the next five minutes, and it became obvious they weren’t battle-trained troops. They were probably considered a serious threat by the local population, but to me they were just amateurs; well-equipped amateurs, but still amateurs.They were well equipped because they had money, and money was the reason I was in Argentina in the first place. Meeting the woman was just a lucky accident. Well, that’s what I thought at the time. I later found out it was no accident.How it all started.The whole thing started six weeks before I found myself with the woman crouched behind a rock and waiting to see what the guys behind the truck were going to do next.After separating myself from the US Army, I needed some way to keep myself indoors and fed.

Historia najnowsza i Argentyny Polski często się rymuje. Jest wstawanie z kolan, jest odzyskiwanie dla ludu, są Unie Wolności, trzecie drogi jak i niekończące się rozliczenia. Jednak chcąc zrozumieć coś więcej, nie można przekładać pojęć z automatu.Po pierwszym tygodniu pobytu w Buenos Aires dzielę się z wami garścią spostrzeżeń i emocji. Z premedytacją nie wspominam tu o footballu, jedzeniu mięsa czy tangu, a częściej o inflacji, bezdomności i odbiorze polityk Javiera Milei. Ale też bez przesady, Argentyna nie żyje Mileiem. A czym żyje - o tym w odcinku.Tomasz Agenckipatronite.pl/agent

Mieli wszystko, a teraz nie mają nic. Stracili mieszkania, cały dobytek życia, poczucie bezpieczeństwa, zdrowie i spokój. W nocy z 24 na 25 sierpnia 2024 doszło do pożaru i wybuchu w poznańskiej kamienicy przy ulicy Kraszewskiego 12. To historia z jednej strony o ogromnej stracie i bezradności, a z drugiej o wielkiej sile mobilizującej społeczeństwo do niesienia pomocy i wsparcia poszkodowanym.

“Le nostre imprese sono preoccupate dal fatto che i costi per il sistema Ets possano, come già succede, aumentare i costi del trasporto marittimo, come l’aumento della spesa per i carburanti. Proponiamo misure di compensazione per questi costi. E pure che i proventi che derivano dalle aste possano essere impiegati per finanziare altre misure, come per esempio incentivi per il rinnovo delle flotte con veicoli a basse emissioni e contributi a favore dell’intermodalità”, così Margherita Palladino, responsabile delle Relazioni Istituzionali di Anita.Tra il 2013 e il 2021 nel trasporto su strada in ambito europeo i costi per il personale sono aumentati del 49%. Lo ha calcolato Iru, l’unione internazionale dei trasporti su strada. Nel parliamo con Alessandro Peron, segretario generale di Fiap.

To better understand Trumpism we need to look at the policies he is proposing and how they will impact us after he is gone. In his rallies he proclaims a great new movement that will transform America and he has anointed a new acolyte to carry on this new movement after he is gone. In this podcast, the Edifice of Trust host, Victor Bolles, will look at how Trump's movement will impact our lives after he is gone.

Steve Young's accolades are impressive: a 15-season NFL career, two MVP awards (1992 and 1994), a triumphant Super Bowl XXIX victory where he was named MVP after throwing a record six touchdowns, seven Pro Bowl selections, and an induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2005.

My guest this week is Boris Blank from hugely influential Swiss electronic act, Yello. Boris Blank formed Yello with Carlos Peron back in 1979. Charismatic singer and lyricist, Dieter Meier, joined shortly after. Boris and Dieter became a duo after Peron left the group in 1983 to pursue a solo career, and the rest, as they say, is history.   During our conversation, which was recorded over telephone, we discussed, among other things, Blank's third solo record ‘Resonance'. The twelve tracks that feature on “Resonance” were originally commissioned for the FORTYSEVEN thermal spa near Zurich.   Boris also talks about the new documentary ‘Oh Yeah' which explores the legacy of Yello's iconic track which found international success after being featured in the closing scenes of John Hughes classic teen comedy ‘Ferris Bueller's Day Off', which is one of my favourite films of the 1980s For more information about the new album, or to buy a copy, visit: https://ianrecords.com/products/boris-blank-resonance Boris Blank - 'Resonance' Synthetic Dreams is presented and produced by Scott Zverblis Synthetic Dreams on ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ Synthetic Dreams title music by Chris Ibbott

L'histoire d'Eva et de Juan Peron a en Argentine une dimension mythique, voire mystique. Haïs ou adulés, Juan et Eva créèrent ensemble une pensée, un courant politique qui subsiste aujourd'hui. Celle qu'on surnommait Evita est considéré par ses admirateurs comme une sainte, une protectrice. Difficile de prendre la mesure du couple Peron, de réaliser l'importance de ces quelques années ensemble, qui se compte pourtant sur les doigts d'une main… Une histoire de destin, de coups d'état et de ferveur. Une histoire d'amour. 1944, Buenos Aires Nous sommes le 22 janvier. Il y a une semaine tout juste, un séisme de magnitude 7,4 a ravagé la ville de San Juan, à l'ouest du pays. Des milliers de personnes sont mortes. Dans la capitale, un événement caritatif se prépare suite au désastre. Plusieurs actrices sont venu présenter leur collecte en faveur des victimes. Celles qui ont amassé le plus de dons reçoivent une décoration. En haut du classement, les grandes Nini Marshall et Libertad Lamarque, icônes de leur époque. D'autres actrices sont moins reconnues, des vedettes de téléfilms ou de modestes pièces de théâtres.

C'est l'histoire d'un jeune Parisien, d'abord passionné par la moto, les circuits et l'odeur de l'huile sur la piste. Mais, qui, fauché par une voiture, se retrouve paraplégique dans un fauteuil roulant à 20 ans. On est en 1978, et Denis Hugues se dit qu'il ne va pas vivre vieux. Il monte une boîte de coursiers et commence à s'intéresser à la voile, grâce à l'un de ses amis qui construit un bateau à Nice. Avec lui, il découvre la mer, le vent, le voyage, et de fil en aiguille, multiplie les embarquements, avant de goûter à ses premières régates.Dans cette deuxième moitié des années 1980, la Mini Transat - créée en 1977 - peut se courir en double. Denis Hugues se lance dans l'aventure avec Jack Viau, mais elle s'arrête peu après les Canaries, où ils sont récupérés par un cargo après une voie d'eau. En 1989, il tente de récidiver en solitaire, mais doit renoncer, hospitalisé à l'issue du convoyage entre La Rochelle et Concarneau. Deux ans plus tard, il est à nouveau au départ, et finit la course en 29e position - tous les concurrents déjà arrivés sortent sous voile à la rencontre de ce ministe hors du commun.Il a des velléités de poursuivre sa carrière de coureur, mais il devient, après la création de la classe Mini, organisateur de la Mini Transat 1993, puis des deux éditions suivantes. Un rude métier, marqué par plusieurs disparitions de coureur - Pascal Leys, Marie-Agnès Peron, Philippe Graber...En 2001, les Rochelais décrochent l'organisation de l'épreuve et l'appellent comme directeur de course : 22 ans plus tard, incontournable, l'homme qui parle à l'oreille des ministes est toujours là, venant de conclure, à 65 ans, sa douzième Mini Transat à la tête de la "DC".Pas d'usure ni de fatigue du 6.50 chez celui qui dirige aussi des courses en Figaro et en Class40. Et toujours le même émerveillement devant la lumière qui brille dans les yeux des marins qui bouclent leur Mini Transat.Diffusé le 15 décembre 2023Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire Levillain

Conor: How are you going? Did I say Michael: it okay or no? Conor: technically, yeah, if you're saying it in the French way, it is Peron, but uh, American way, just Peron. Michael: Nice. Have you ever been to France? Is that where you're Conor: from? Did a trip once a couple of years back to Paris and then uh, South of France. Beautiful. Oh, man. Michael: Yeah. That's a spot out there. South of France. Awesome, man. So tell us a little bit about where you came from. You're past, you're present.What Conor: are you doing right now? So right now, I'm at my personal office right now. We just opened up a couple months ago, but I was born and raised in Orange County and I went to school at USC for undergrad and dental school finished up there and then stayed in L. A. For a couple years after I finished up and I knew that I always wanted to come back down this way.It's just always been home to me. when I got started with this process, I looked around in Newport Beach, Irvine. And decided upon this building. I felt like it was in a very easy to access area for a lot of people from different parts of Orange County. And yeah, the entire build out, getting the loan set up process wise probably took a little bit over a year.This is actually decently quick, considering I've heard some people take. Sometimes multiple years, but yeah, and then I've been associating part time and now I'm officially in my own practice full time, five days a week as of this week. Michael: Nice, man. So rewind a little bit. Why did you decide to do a Conor: startup?So for me, I was actually not originally thinking that I was going to do a startup. I had a couple of friends who recommended one, but I was thinking, you know, I might want to just go and buy a practice because it might be a little bit easier to deal with. But, there were a couple of things that I noticed when I was, looking around I didn't have a ton of connections with people who are close to getting ready to sell.And so I feel like a lot of sales that did happen tended to be passed around by word of mouth. Sometimes they wouldn't be listed and. I think maybe just because I am on the younger side, when I was asking, you know, some of these, brokers for information about potential listings, I feel like they maybe didn't take me seriously.I was looking around a little bit more and some of the practices that I did see, I wanted to change so much of. The way that they practice dentistry, maybe the interiors, the equipment that they had, and it made me think, I'm going to spend so much money wanting to redo this immediately when I get it.Why not just start from scratch and have everything in my vision from day one? Michael: Okay, so you were looking for acquisitions at the beginning. Conor: I was yes, but to find like a good one, it can be tough to find if you don't really have personally have not really had a true mentor So I haven't been able to use that to leapfrog to find a potential acquisition Gotcha.Michael: Okay. You mentioned they didn't take you seriously Because of maybe they saw you like you were on the younger side and stuff like that. How'd you know? How'd you know they weren't taking you seriously? Conor: for example, I would see a practice that I thought I was interested in and immediately I would reach out and they would text me and just be like, yeah sure, sure, sure. And I would want to set up a time immediately to meet either the head doctor or to check out the office and then I would get ghosted. And then about a week later, they're like, Oh, were you still interested in seeing the privacy? And I'm just like, Oh, I'm so sorry for your first choices, rejecting it.And now you're trying to come back to me. I had very much got that impression from at least four different people. And I'm just like, Michael: yeah, you're like, I'm your, I'm your second option. Conor: You know? And so again, I think it is because they just heard, the year that I graduated and they probably thought that I wasn't truly serious about wanting to take that step into ownership.What year did Michael: you graduate? 21. Oh, 21. Oh, okay, man. So you're like, you said, I'm going to do Conor: this. Yeah, I know. Exactly. Yeah. I just, I can be, I guess not picky the wrong word, but I just say, Yeah. I like to practice the way exactly I want to practice I think it's very important to associate you learn a ton of stuff, you pick up your speed, efficiency, how to talk to people, most importantly, but I just really wanted to be able to do everything the way that I wanted to, rather than the owner, Michael: so then how exactly do you want to practice? Conor: you know, there's like so many different ways that you can practice chemistry, but for me, I really value, deeper personal relationships and being able to spend a lot of individual time with each of my patients. I don't want to feel like also I'm having to hop between a lot of different rooms.So when I book a patient here, I tell them, they're going to be here for X amount of time, and that's going to be completely undisturbed attention between me and them where I am treating them. I'm also really big on conservative dentistry. So I try not to, treatment plan any crowns unless I'm replacing a current one that might be defective.And I'm really big on adhesive dentistry. Michael: Gotcha. Gotcha. So building that relationship with the patient and then obviously the clinical side is what you wanted to, how'd you figure that out? What bad stuff were you experiencing? Like, I guess, incorporate or other stuff where you're like, I never want to do this.And then some things where you're like, I can take this into my own practice. Conor: We were very fortunate at USC. We got taught by Dr. Pascal Monnier and he is really big on biomimetic dentistry, very minimally invasive, conservative adhesive based dentistry. And so that's the way that me and my classmates all learned from the get go.you take that for granted because then when you graduate. It's not like that at all in any offices. You're doing a lot of crown work. You're not really using a lot of the nice bonding materials that you're used to when we were at USC. And so when I hopped into my 1st position, started to see a lot of things like, more post op sensitivity maybe restorations not lasting as long as they should.And I also, you I mean, everyone's very different, but I really don't like hopping around from chair to chair. It doesn't allow me to really be present with each person. And that's something, when I was in that first position that I did not like. Michael: Gotcha. Okay. So that carried out and you're like, I'm not going to ever do that in my practice.What were some of the things you decided you, you took away from other, you know what I mean? Like associates and you're Conor: like, I'm going to do this. definitely systems, for example, they would contact patients when it would come to confirming their appointments different things that they wanted me, I guess, to say during an exam that would cause a patient to ask.prompt them to be more open ended rather than just giving me a yes or no answer. So a lot of little things like that. And then also I've worked in offices that were more insurance based and then some offices that were you know, just filling them out for the patients.So technically they were feed for service and and seeing the differences between the two, it made me realize. I wanted to be fee for service and just on behalf of the patient. Michael: So right now, you're not with any insurance. Conor: I'm not, which is terrifying.You know, like the first week I saw friends and family and then I realized, Oh no, I have like no people on my schedule. And immediately I'm just like, I made a huge mistake. I have a consultant and so I'm talking with her. I'm just like, oh, I shouldn't have done this.Give me all the information on someone, to get credential. And I also have another kind of scary phone call with a friend of a friend and he's just like, oh, you're making a huge mistake. You should definitely get credential. But, you know, after having, you know, a couple mild panic attacks that first week, I realized, this is not what I want to do.It's not true to my vision. And this is not how I built this office. Unfortunately, just by advertising, mailers seem to be working a little bit of you know, direct person to person interaction. And Instagram stuff, I started to get a couple of people to come through the door in seeing just a few people and, having them pay out of pocket, you're still able to do just as well as you could be if you're seeing quite a few more patients and taking insurance and you're able to practice the way you want to and spend individual attention with them.Again, different ways to practice, but I definitely realized, stay true to what you wanted to do and you're going to be happier that way. Michael: Yeah, how many weeks or months have you been open Conor: today or actually yesterday is officially three months Michael: Okay, man. Do you think you're going to eventually hit that where you're like, okay, I'm panicking again.I should probably get credentialed Conor: I'm very lucky to have two other friends who are kind of in their startup journeys and they're right around the year mark. There's definitely ups and downs with months July and August are really good. I feel like this month we're maybe not doing quite as well as those two months.But everything is slowly on an upward trend like that and there's still not a day that goes by right now where I'm just like, hey I took out this monster loan. Maybe I shouldn't have spent this much money to do all this stuff. I have a huge debt service at the end of the month, but it's natural.I was able to get my tenant improvement check from my landlord recently, and so that's able to help pay some of the bills right now until things stabilize a little bit more so.Michael: Okay. Got you, man. talked to a lot of people who are like, yeah, I eventually had to get credentialed.and then eventually they try to phase it out. I don't know how easy it is to phase it out. You know what I mean? Because then they have to deal with I'm losing half my patients type of deal. You know what I mean? Conor: Yeah. And the other thing is too, since you are a startup, I mean, realistically do they ask?are you a network? I think we've gotten only 1 of those type of phone calls. Usually they will ask, do you take insurance? And I mean, the answer still is technically. Yes, we are very happy to build, but we explain that we still require up front payment, they will get reimbursed by their insurance company via check in around 2 to 3 weeks.And as long as you explain things very clearly to each patient. Okay. They usually actually don't have a problem with that. Michael: Gotcha. So it's communication. Exactly. Gotcha. Something you mentioned a little bit before I want to rewind, you said you learned some things that you would say to patients that would give them an open answer instead of like a yes or no.What were some of those things? Conor: When I'm starting out with a consultation, one of the things that I always like to ask a patient is what brought you here? And to tell me a little bit more about yourself, your journey, et cetera, rather than just, did you have braces?Do you have popping or clicking? You know, immediately just yes, no, yes, no. I want them to open up more so. and that definitely carries it out into like a cosmetic consultation more so because you Really connect with the patient and try to get their emotions to say yes to what you're trying to offer them essentially, because you want to ask them like, Oh, how will this make you feel?Or what are some of the things that you're wanting to get out of treatment that have brought you here? And so the more that they're starting to think about it, the more they almost realize. Hey, I really want to have this done. Michael: Gotcha. How long is your new patient visits? Your first visit?Conor: If the patient is really easy they're quick and they don't talk a lot, I can have them in and out of here in about, an hour and 20 minutes if they've not had a cleaning or if they're not doing a cleaning. Standard though, without a cleaning is an hour and a half.If we get the cleaning in there and the patient's willing to stay, then maybe like two hours, two hours, 10 minutes. Michael: Okay. Will it ever like go lower, less or anything as you get busier or you're like, no, I like that two hour Conor: mark. I like it quite frankly, because I take lot of like DSLR photos and I like to use them to talk to the patient about what I'm seeing.So by the time that I upload them into the computer, crop them, upload them into Oryx. My assistant takes the x ray, the scan, I'm like going as quickly as I can. I don't foresee it getting a little bit shorter. Okay. Michael: Yeah. Okay. But the patient, how do they feel? Usually, Conor: they don't have an issue with the length.Sometimes they will have wanted a cleaning, but by the time that we're done, they go ahead and postpone the cleaning for like a week or two afterwards and we'll usually attach a little bit of treatment onto that cleaning appointment. Okay, gotcha. Because they're happy to come back anyway. Michael: Yeah. I don't know.That makes sense. That's nice though, man. You know what I mean? Like you're doing all that, the work behind it. You know what I mean? To Conor: make sure. Oh, yeah. Thank you. And I feel taking better photos with the patient, know, intraoral and then also some portrait photography in case they do want to do aesthetic work or, you're using it to communicate with Invisalign or Ceramis.I think the patient really sees the value in a lot of that. And again, when they see a very clear photo right in front of them cause we have a monitor right in front of our consultation room it becomes a lot more real to them rather than you just putting an instrument in there being like, Oh, I feel like a stick right there.Michael: Yeah. That does feel a lot better. So then let's dive into a little bit about your build out process and your business here. first and foremost, who'd you go with for your loan? Conor: think America. Why'd you pick them? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. oddly enough, they were the 1st bank that I talked to.I was talking to another bank that I have a good relationship with, but they don't really do a lot of dental specific stuff. And so I wanted to go with 1 that had a dental specific component. I know Wells Fargo used to, I don't think they do currently, but then another good 1 is Provide. But, I talked to Ali, great guy, he's in charge, I think, of all the startup dental loans with, Bank of America, and when I looked at, what the interest rates were, and how the repayment is done, it seemed like a really, really good offer, and that's what I ended up deciding to go with.Michael: Okay. And then how much was the loan for? Conor: So regarding the loans, they'll kind of give you a different amount based off of what you're, trying to do. I started off with 600 and then I don't know if I'm supposed to be saying this or not, but then when the project went over budget, then I asked for a little bit more and I got a little bit more.Michael: They were to give you a little bit more. Yeah. Conor: how? Just later on when the project was close to completion, I'm just like, we need to up this Michael: just pretty quick or not that quick? Conor: Reasonably quick. Yeah, I was going to say, especially post COVID, it seems like construction costs have gone through the roof.I was talking to my contractor about that. everything costs more. So that's why I feel like a lot of banks now they usually have a hard cut off, but then further on, if you need a little bit more, sometimes they will be generous and be willing to give you a little bit extra.Michael: Gotcha. Okay. So then how much was your build out? Conor: It was like close to a million. Michael: Really? Yeah. Man. Like, why? Conor: I put every amount of personal money that I had into this thing I maxed out everything that I could with the bank I'm still in the process of paying my dad back for, you know, a little bit that he loaned to me I'm not the type of person who's going to want to hop from a place similar to, the way that I want to treat patients, but I don't want to hop from office to office and continually try to go on to the next thing. I wanted this to be my life practice. And so I didn't want to cut any corners with, trying to, you not do a certain thing or the other.I wanted everything to be good from the get go. So I wouldn't have to change it. Okay. Michael: So then touching around a million. What type of practice do you have? how many ops? Conor: it's still not complete technically two of the ops they don't have chairs or anything like that in them or like monitors.So we have a consultation room I'm able to do Invisalign type stuff in there also and then we have If it were to be completely built out by other ops, Michael: okay, so then working right now, how many Conor: that you're in, including consultation room, it would be. four. Michael: And then the type of practice you have it's fee for service general or are you Oh, no, we want to just focus on families or only cosmetics or fee for Conor: service general.And so like my overall goal is obviously this is going to be general practice. I want to have a lot of people just come in for routine dental care. But I eventually want to get to the, position where I'm just doing cosmetic cases. And then I have maybe an associate working under me who's doing a lot of the other bread and butter type general dentistry.And then Michael: cause you're located Conor: where? I'm in Irvine. So I'm like close to the Irvine spectrum about 15 minutes from Newport Beach, 10 minutes from Laguna Beach.Oh, that's right. Michael: That's Conor: right. I did. It's a good feeder for a lot of different Michael: areas. So whenever somebody signs up to the ground marketing course, I do like a little community research and I was like, Irvine spectrum has so much around there.Conor: Yeah. the Irvine company has built a ton of housing around here. I think they have something called the great park. Where they're putting in still a ton of other houses, and yeah, it's a good area to be in. So you Michael: guys got a lot, yeah. Okay, so then, do you ever plan to say like, Well, you know what, I have one here, maybe one in Manhattan Beach, or one like, you know what I mean, would be nice.Conor: I think so. I haven't put a lot of thought into it, or if it would be... Reasonably nearby, or maybe if I would even consider putting it in like a different state too, but yeah, I think that would be something I would definitely want to revisit maybe, eight or so years after this is fully developed because, you know, I heard it can take almost.Six to seven years for your startup to reach the full size of a normal, operating office. Michael: Yeah, gotcha. Okay. So then this kind of but technically isn't like the end goal, right? Conor: No, but I don't want to just sell this off or leave this office. I will always want to have this office at least as a part of a brand potentially.Michael: Yeah. Okay, cool. Cool. And then how many employees do you have right now? Conor: So right now I have two. I have Katie. She's like our front desk concierge. She'll help patients out with insurance, checking them in, calling, scheduling, you name it. And then I have Jasmine. She's my assistant in the back. But one of the great things about Jasmine is she's also front office trained, and Katie had no dental experience, so the first couple weeks when Katie was trying to learn stuff, she was able to pick Jasmine's brain, and Jasmine was able to fill in kind of the gaps there.Michael: Uh Huh. How'd you find them? Conor: Not easy. I was going to say, I looked around a lot and I happened to find both of them on Indeed. I want to say, but even a lot of people on Indeed, people who reach out to you and you'll go to schedule an interview with them.They look promising. And then all of a sudden, they'll ghost you I have a theory that a lot of it has to do with maybe them potentially wanting to collect And so they want to show proof that they've been looking for a job but that's a different story.I happened to find both of them on a deed. Michael: Gotcha. Okay. how do you craft your, ad? Is do you ask for? Conor: I wrote it completely myself. I think I put the philosophy of my practice and how I'm going to be different than your standard dental office there.one of the things I really pointed out was I'm not really hiring so much on skill. I'm really hiring on personality because I feel like skill can always be taught and it can be trained, but you cannot change a person's personality, obviously. one of the things that really struck out is they had really nice smiles they were very personable, bubbly, and I'm just like, this is great.We can work with this. Nice, Michael: man. I like that. what is the philosophy of your practice? Conor: So my philosophy is, one on one personalized attention and just elevating a person's overall experience when they come in here. not trying to sell a patient anything. I'm just trying to provide what they need and also do it in as minimally invasive of a way as possible.Michael: Gotcha. So then, you've been up and running for three months now. Yes. What's production and collections looking like? Conor: I was going to say, haven't looked at August's data quite yet, but I think June was a wash. I was also on vacation the last month of June. It couldn't have been worse timing, but I think in July we did almost 40, 000 in collection.Michael: Okay, and then your, break even point. Is whereConor: not paying myself. And this is a scary number. It is around 26,000. Michael: Okay. Paying yourself, how Conor: much, if I'm giving myself not a great salary in bare bones, let's just say like in 30. Okay. No, I can't. Cause I can, I can live with that. I haven't paid myself at all so far. I just know that it's going to be a little short term pain for longterm gain.So I have to put it back into the business. Gotcha. Michael: And then how many days are you open Conor: now? Officially open five days a week and we are open Monday through Thursdays. Fridays from eight to four and then Fridays from seven to Michael: three. Okay. Did you create those hours because you saw that there was a need for that time Conor: or?No. I'm really big on a routine. I like being able to come home and I mean, this is also stressful. Dentistry itself is stressful. So I need a personal life when I'm done at the end of the day. been in a couple of offices where I did like a 10 to seven o'clock. And you're just like a zombie towards the end of the day.And I just knew, even though it might be, I guess, a little bit more convenient for some people, I didn't want to do it. And so I'll come in on Saturdays sometimes. I'm willing to do that for patients who might not be able to make these normal hours. But I just wanted to set it that way from the get go. And by opening a little bit Earlier on Fridays, I can make time for some patients who might not want to miss work.And also I feel like a lot of patients also cancel on a Friday afternoon. So by ending a little bit earlier, we try to avoid that. Michael: Gotcha. What are the demographics in Irvine where you're at? Like, how'd you figure out the demographics? And then how are you like putting that with your marketing and everything like that?Conor: It's tricky. There are. A lot of different demographics in this area. So 1st and foremost, I would say Irvine itself is very upper middle class or affluent in some different parts of it. Very safe community, but then there's also a really large immigrant community to heavily, I would say like, Chinese and then there's also a large Arab population.So 1 of the things that I was looking for originally when I was trying to find, you know, a team is maybe someone who also spoke a little bit of Mandarin, which also that ended up proving to be a little bit more difficult than I thought. I didn't really get a lot of people who applied who spoke it.But there's also Newport Beach close by, which is a little bit older. Also very affluent. And so I guess when I'm running different ads, I'm trying to attract a lot of general patients from this immediate area, but then for more higher end cases, heavily focusing it on South County, looking into Gal and then also Newport Beach too.Michael: What have you seen difficulty wise when it comes to working with those type of patients, like from Laguna, from Newport, or maybe marketing to them when they call and ask you questions and I think we're like, Oh my, how many years have you been practicing? Oh, you know what I Conor: mean? It's hard and I need to not let that get to me, but it's like a huge pet peeve of mine. I'll walk into a room, sometimes they'll be like, Oh, how old are you? And I'm just like, I did just turn 30 this year, so I definitely am on the young side. I get it. But no, I was gonna say that's probably the number one issue I have when I'm first meeting someone.Obviously when I get to know 'em, it's not so much of a problem then, but yeah. How are Michael: you Conor: combating. I learned this and being in my last practice also you never want to get defensive because when a person says that they're just, testing you they want to see what your reaction is.So if you get defensive, it shows that they're winning. You just have to laugh it off. Yeah, in a very professional polite way. Michael: Yeah, not like an evil laugh just like so then what systems would you say are unique in your practice right now that you're like, you know what man I'm proud of this that we've created.Conor: A place where a patient walks in and they're immediately telling a lot of their friends and family about what a cool experience it was. So, you know, When a patient 1st sits down and maybe they're filling out some forms, I have Katie go ahead and grab them an espresso. We have sparkling water, some other cool beverages, and she'll bring that over.We'll give them like a personal tour of the office too. I feel like that builds value in showing what we do, what makes us different before they actually sit down in the chair. I also through the company who did my branding, I got these off of Alibaba, but they're like these little like travel kits that have our logo on them, a bamboo toothbrush with the logo on them.And then also these cool custom flosses. they get to take those home then towards the end of the new patient experience with Oryx, you're also able to give the patient a personalized handout showing them, what their different risk levels for different things are.There's explanations for different conditions and they really, really like that educational value. you, utilize Michael: Oryx then for your new patient visitation, right? Conor: You said? I, I utilize the Oryx for everything. It's our practice software, but they have a lot of really cool features that a lot of other softwares out there don't have.And that's what attracts me to them. Michael: were you deciding between Oryx and another Conor: thing? I was looking at Curve also. I was wanting something cloud based, you know, to where you could access it from anywhere. I don't have to dis on a lot of other softwares out there, but I also, since I'm building like a brand new modern office, I don't want a software that looks like, Microsoft 95, So , yeah, Michael: I get you man. I get you. So you felt like Orex checked that part out, right? I Conor: mean, yeah. But that's, the surface level. But, I haven't taken any Coist courses yet. I'm taking my first one in May of next year. But I've heard amazing things about Kois, and I like how systematized.Or access when it comes to doing that new patient exam. So you're doing the exact same thing with every patient because, in dentistry, we get so distracted with so many little things and sometimes we'll do something for no rhyme or reason, and it can influence the standardization of how you conduct that new exam.So by keeping you on tasks. You're always able to put together a nice comprehensive treatment plan for the patient. Michael: I know I'm going ask you an excruciating detail right now, but like, how do they do that in the sense of walk me through like a new patient exam? Conor: Oryx, it's like super patient guided.I don't even know how to describe it. Like the software itself guides you throughout your journey with the patient. So say patient folks online with you again through Oryx, they give you a plugin to put on their website. You're going to get a pop up. when you get the pop up, you're going to be able to send a patient all of their forms and information that they need.And then when that's done, that patient is going to have their appointment time ready to go. And you're going to have a pre checklist of everything the patient should have done or will need to do before you bring them back. you know, You can easily see that in the corner there, you'll get them seated in the chair on their appointment day and then has.a section just for, clinical. And so what happens there is you have your radiograph section, TMJ section, you have an oral cancer screening section, you have a tooth morphology section, you have your probing imperio section, and then something on the appearance of the patient's teeth.And so you follow each one of those steps throughout every exam. And then that way you're hitting every box that needs to happen. And sometimes, by having conversations with the patient regarding aesthetics, the appearance of their teeth, they might talk themselves into doing something that they didn't originally plan on coming in for.Michael: Can you present it that way? Conor: So what I do is Obviously I kind of discussed what I'm seeing, but I like to compartmentalize everything into four different sections. So I'll talk about the patient's overall smile. That's the first thing. I'll talk about the patients gum and supporting bone.I'll talk about their bite, and then I'll also talk about overall condition of each individual tooth. And I make my own, PowerPoint presentation based off of the photos that I took, and the findings that I'm seeing, and then we look at them together on a TV that I have on my computer. Consultation Michael: room.Gotcha, man. So, Aurix kind of helps you out with all that? Conor: Very much so.Michael: nice, man. Okay, so that's like just one little Conor: feature, right? I will say Aurix's forms are long. been told by a lot of patients hey this is taking me a long time.I'm just like, just fill it out, please. But, it really gets them thinking about different conditions that they're having. And I love how it allows me to ask open ended questions about what they've been experiencing. Questions regarding food getting caught in between their teeth.By bringing that into the conversation so early, it makes talking about why they might need a new crown further on easier. Michael: Nice, man. 200 active patients or no? Conor: No, not there yet. I'd have to check. I want to say that we're like at maybe 60 to 70, something like that. Michael: Okay. is it free for you right now or no? Conor: to double check. I had like a free period. I don't know if it's free currently, but I also have a couple of friends who are going through the startup journey right now. So they've put me as their referral. So I've gotten a couple of free months.Michael: Okay. Nice. Nice. I know like right now they're doing that. free until you reach 200 active patients. So that's what I was wondering, bring it up to them and be like, Hey man, Michael said it's free, but awesome, man. So then how many new patients are you getting Conor: monthly? It depends. I think last month we saw close to 20 new patients.And just because we are a little bit more of a cosmetically oriented office, I will get patients who come in here sometimes who are not looking to have me as a general dentist. They are only wanting to have maybe a little bit of veneer work done. They might also just want to do clear aligners with me.they're going to just stick at their other general dentist. And that's fine. Obviously I asked them if they're looking for someone new. But even though it's around 20, sometimes that full number is not exactly patients who are going to be coming back consistently. Michael: Yeah, because if you look at your, social media, right?It's nice. So it doesn't really look like a general practice, you know what I mean? To me, it kind of looks like, uh, he's doing something elevated here, Conor: Well, thank you. And I mean, I will say like, I was talking to my assistant, about this. I am going to try to At least just add a little bit more content showing things maybe aren't as stiff as they appear maybe on Instagram.I want to make myself a little bit more, I guess, like approachable and then also show more general dentistry type stuff rather than only cosmetic don't want people to get confused and think that I'm only doing veneers or bonding at this office. Michael: But Connor, let me ask you, would you want to just do that?Conor: only do cosmetic work? Michael: Yeah, like in the end where you're like, that'd be the goal if I can just Conor: do that. Absolutely. Yeah. That's my, completely my end goal. I'm young, I still have a large portfolio to develop before I am only seeing that kind of patient consistently.Michael: Yeah. It's different what you're doing. So it's attracting, I think when they get there, they're like, Oh, you also do, you know what I mean? yeah, Conor: exactly. Michael: that's my thought, but I don't know. It's up to you. I know right now, like you said, you're young and you want to build your portfolio. So what are you doing for marketing and advertising?Conor: a loaded question. Um, so I first started off, I found a company through a friend and some of the things that they were suggesting, I just really didn't like at all. And I ended up firing before I even used them really at all. And then I found someone who did some freelance stuff and, basically running a lot of digital ads and, talk to vision with her.But, the office opened and I. realized that I was having to constantly remind her to do different things. She was also in charge of my social media at the time too. So I'm just like, why wasn't this posted? We talked about this or, what happened to tagging these different accounts with this.And so realized since I was basically having to double check and do everything else myself at that point. Why am I keeping her? And on top of that too, a lot of the search terms that she was using Didn't make any sense at all, there were no exclusions for different things that were being done for example, like I don't do full mouth implants of this office I had a ton of people looking for cheap full mouth implants for seniors So a lot of those terms should have been excluded from the get go and then while I was doing that you know obviously I looked into some direct marketing trying to contact like different apartments to put my Information may be in new resident flyers, that sort of a thing, but bringing it up to today.I worked with my cousin. He's a jack of all trades guy. He helped me run some Google ads after I let that last freelance person go. Had a little bit of success with that. I've had a lot of success with direct mailers that my cousin and I did. But I also just brought in a new marketing company.They seem to be doing a good job so far. I really liked their philosophy and different things that they suggested for me. And so we'll see how that works out. Michael: Gotcha, man. Okay. So direct mailers is it right Conor: now? I would have never thought that. I've had a lot of people say that they don't work at all.But. I released my first round of them in early July, and I think I got at least 10 to 15 patients out of it. Michael: What'd you put on it? Conor: It was a picture of me, the office, we had a couple incentives on it. But I tried to use a slightly thicker paper, when I was sending it out, and I just wanted it to have like a little bit of pop to it.So I made sure that the colors... Everything that I did on it was very on brand. Michael: what was the incentives, and then what were the colors? Conor: my brand colors are like a, it's almost like a navy blue, a gold, and a cream. I incorporated those, but then the incentives were, a new patient special, a free veneer consultation. And then also a discount on new design thinking about it now, though, obviously, I've already sent these 1st 2 rounds out. I would probably change the way that I do. And sometimes I would probably offer something that I would give a patient.After they pay full price rather than offering an incentive itself right off the bat, because sometimes when you send that out, patients are always looking for a discount to some degree. hey, like, if you come in, we'll give you, a cool whitening pen. I think that's like a better way to do a lot of those incentives rather than saying, oh, hey, we're going to completely discount your services because.When I thought about it more, so I'm just like, am I potentially also cheapening my brand by doing this? But sometimes you have to do what you have to do in order to get people to share in the beginning. Michael: could I ask what were the type of patients that came in from the mailers?And then what was the incentive that people were like, this is the one I want? Conor: I've had people come in for all three categories from completely different walks of life. I will say that the usual veneer consultation, people tend to skew older. that's why I decided I want to target, more so like Newport beach, those types of areas, because I tended to grab the attention of older, maybe 60 to 70 year olds in those areas wanting to come in for that kind of stuff.Invisalign discount has brought in more young people. for a lot of people out there who are maybe thinking about adding that to a mailer, I would probably get rid of it because you have a lot of people who are just price shopping, and even though you say that it's going to be X amount off, they still have an unrealistic expectation as to what the final price is going to be.But I still wouldn't put that final price on your mailer. And then I've gotten a lot of people also just wanting to do the new patient special. How much Michael: do you charge for the new patient special? Conor: So right now it's heavily discounted for x rays and exam itself. It's like around 150. Michael: That's good, man. Okay. So then mailers is what's working, bringing the best ROI right now. Yeah, Conor: so hopefully now with some more different... Meta ads. I have this marketing company now working on doing a really nice job Google ads. Also, we'll see some more people come in from that and they've even run like some ads on YouTube And I actually got a patient through YouTube last week.Really? Yeah, I'm just I would have never expected that. What's Michael: the ad on YouTube? I've been hearing that a little bit more from people. They're like, oh, yeah, YouTube is getting kind of... Conor: so I think beyond people just watching YouTube videos or like channels A lot of people use YouTube for TV itself, like a cable.Your ads can sometimes be put on people's TVs in the same way that you would see 10 years ago, like a medication ad. Yeah. Michael: What is the ad that you have on there Conor: though? To be honest? I have no idea which one I should know. So I just had a meeting with them this morning. I forget which one that they chose, butMichael: Yeah. Gotcha. Okay. I was just wondering if it has like an incentive Conor: none of the ones that they're running right now have incentives on. Oh, nice. Michael: that's good then. And then right now, what would you say from the moment you thought Hey, I'm gonna do this to right now today.What's been your biggest, or some of your biggest fails, pitfalls, or struggles?Conor: I think it's just keeping my expectations in check. I've always been the type of guy where if I worked hard, I would get what I wanted. You know what I mean? Like, say, studied really hard. I would get a good grade. This is not like that. no matter how hard I try, getting patients through the door is not easy.it's been an interesting year like, first dealing with personal problems with my parents long distance relationship, getting this office open there's been like a million and one things that have kind of happened. And so now adding on the stress of all this monthly debt service and making it all happen, it's tough.And not only that, because you're a business owner too, you have employees under you. You want to make sure that you're able to take care of them, too, because they're relying on you for themselves. Michael: Yeah, and that is tough. So how is this all affecting your personal life? Conor: definitely was an adjustment.I was never really an anxious person before this year. But now, as you're getting close to opening. You're trying to put out so many holes. There's always such a long reminder list, and I think it's so important that you do stay organized or else you're going to always be short circuiting.They're like a pinball machine trying to figure out exactly what you forgot to do. because I am in a long distance relationship, even though it's like harder, it would be nice to have like support that's like a little bit closer. Like a lot of people, go through when they're opening up an office like this.It's actually worked to my benefit, I would say, to some degree, because I've been able to Devote more of my own personal time into this. Michael: So if you know what I'm asking, the longest relationship is how long? East coast of Canada. Oh man. Yeah. That's kind of Conor: hard. So it's not easy

Best of California Haunts RadioThis is the first of a three-part interview with Andrea Perron, who along with her three sisters and parents, lived in a house in Rhode Island that was supposed to be a nice, quiet place for girls to grow up in. However, on the day they moved in, the previous owner told her father to “leave all the lights on at night.” From day one, family members started experiencing strange occurrences in the house and for almost a decade, the family learned that dying is not the end of our existence. In addition, they realized that they were sharing their home with those who had previously either resided on the property or had simply been passing through. Some may have even died in battle. Activity was so frequent, the family enlisted the help of Paranormal Investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. That investigation would be made into a movie, “The Conjuring,” which was based on notes that had been kept by the family and the files of the Warrens. Don't miss this great chance to hear the true story of The Conjuring from one of the family members who was a witness to all that went on in the house. Also, during the interview, Charlotte has a paranormal experience possibly related to the subject.

This episode is a valentine of sorts... an homage to the German-Argentinian artist, Grete Stern, and how she snuck her incredible tragicomic feminist photomontages into a dream interpretation column into a 1950's Buenos Aires ladies' magazine during the reign of Peron and his Iron Fist. Cackle along with me as I take a deeper look at her hilariously sly and poignant photomontage illustrations. I'll also explain what exactly a photomontage is and how she constructed them - because it is extremely fascinating!

The boys are joined by  Justine from Kalche wines to discuss feet stuff, types of kisses and of course Piedmont wine via the lens of Roman Roy. This is officially a silly episode, but holy shit do the wines rule.  Bizarre alt Piedmont shit is, unsurprisingly, our jam.  Another thing that is our jam, of course, is Kalche wine, a totally rad wine cooperative in Vermont. You should probably get a bunch of their wine. ////LIST////Andrea Scovero, Vino Bianco Sauvignon, ‘il Campesino,'' NV//La Vecchia Posta, Poggio dello Scagno, ‘Derthona,' 2016 //Jean-yves Peron, Grignolino, ‘I Vicini,' 2018 //Cascina val Liberata, Slarina, ‘Ceneria,' 2019//Kalche wine cooperative, ‘Tucker cider,' 2021////Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Disgorgeous)
