Send us a textIt's been nearly two decades since the last Canadian clinical practice guideline on managing obesity in children. In that time, the science has advanced, treatment options have expanded, and the need for updated guidance has grown increasingly urgent. On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, hosts Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham speak with three guests who contributed to or were impacted by the new guideline published in CMAJ. Together, they explore how the recommendations address the complexity of pediatric obesity and what it takes to implement them in real-world settings.Dr. Geoff Ball, chair of the guideline steering committee, explains how the recommendations were shaped by evidence as well as the meaningful participation of parents and youth at every stage of development. He discusses how the panel weighed the benefits and risks of pharmacotherapy and bariatric surgery in the context of limited pediatric data and a rapidly evolving treatment landscape.Dr. Michelle Jackman, a pediatrician and clinical lead at the Pediatric Centre for Wellness and Health in Calgary, shares how her team delivers multi-component behavioural interventions, often in the absence of system-wide supports. She reflects on how the new guideline has prompted her to reconsider referral pathways for bariatric surgery and advocate more strongly for patients.Brenndon Goodman, a long-time patient advocate, offers his own experience navigating childhood obesity, including the emotional dimensions of eating, the impact of stigma, and the life-changing outcome of bariatric surgery. He calls for improved access to care and a stronger commitment to children and youth living with obesity.This episode highlights both the progress and the persistent barriers in treating childhood obesity. The new guideline affirms that obesity is a complex chronic condition and provides much-needed support for physicians caring for children and youth living with it.For more information from our sponsor, go to scotiabank.com/physicians.Join us as we explore medical solutions that address the urgent need to change healthcare.

Jon Benz preaches from Luke 23.

Le marché intérieur est atone, les ventes reculent en Chine et l'entreprise a traversé, à l'automne dernier, une des plus graves crises de son histoire. Volkswagen, le géant automobile allemand, fort de ses dix marques, va réduire ses effectifs de 35 000 personnes d'ici à 2030. Autant dire que l'annonce par l'administration Trump de droits de douane de 25 % sur les voitures importées tombe au pire moment pour Volkswagen qui vend un million de véhicules aux États-Unis. RFI s'est rendu au siège du groupe à Wolfsburg pour savoir comment la population et les salariés perçoivent cette mauvaise nouvelle.  De notre envoyé spécial à Wolfsburg,À l'arrivée à la gare de Wolfsburg, au centre de l'Allemagne, la vue est imprenable sur le gigantesque site de Volkswagen (VW), l'équivalent de 650 stades de foot. De l'autre côté, la ville avec son charme d'après-guerre très discret. En cette journée printanière, de nombreux retraités prennent le soleil sur des bancs de la zone piétonnière. Ils ne sont pas menacés par les droits de douane, mais concernés. Volkswagen fait partie de leur ADN, comme pour cet Italien d'origine, Nicola Motta, qui a fait toute sa carrière dans l'entreprise. « Volkswagen, c'est tout pour moi. Regardez le dos de mon téléphone. Là, c'est mon village en Calabre et en dessous l'usine de Wolfsburg », montre-t-il.Le retraité est fier de ses deux fils, tous les deux ingénieurs chez Volkswagen, à Wolfsburg même et en Chine. Mais aussi inquiet pour eux. « Si ça va mal pour Volkswagen, ça nous concerne aussi. On s'inquiète avec ce président américain. Nous n'avons pas confiance en lui. Le matin, il dit blanc, à midi noir et le soir autre chose », explique-t-il.L'ingénieur Torsten Bleibaum travaille depuis trente ans chez Volkswagen. Pour lui, la crise sociale de l'automne dernier était bien plus grave que les actuels droits de douane américains. « Je ne peux pas confirmer dans mon entourage le pessimisme ambiant dans les médias actuellement, même s'il est peut-être justifié, estime-t-il. Pour beaucoup, ces droits de douane, c'est beaucoup trop abstrait. Je ne crois pas que ça soit si dramatique. »Au café Pinocchio, Silvestro Gurrieri sirote un espresso. Ce Sicilien est arrivé dans les années 1970 à Wolfsburg où il a fait toute sa carrière. Membre du parti social-démocrate et du puissant syndicat IG Metall, Volkswagen est sa deuxième famille. « Ces droits de douane de Donald Trump sont une catastrophe totale. Ça nous frappe fortement et on s'inquiète. Volkswagen a surmonté la crise de l'an dernier et maintenant ces problèmes surgissent sur lesquels nous avons peu d'influence », regrette-t-il.Alexander Jordan est le nouveau député de la circonscription. Ce chrétien-démocrate a fait carrière chez un sous-traitant de l'industrie automobile et connaît bien le secteur. « Les inquiétudes sont palpables même si la situation reste calme. Il n'y a pas de conséquences directes pour l'instant après l'introduction de ces droits de douane, mais elles se profilent à l'horizon », redoute-t-il.Les droits de douane de 25 % en vigueur depuis le début du mois pour les voitures exportées aux États-Unis s'appliqueront en mai à 150 produits fabriqués par les sous-traitants du secteur automobile. VW a entamé des négociations directes avec les États-Unis pour obtenir des taxes douanières plus avantageuses en échange d'une production plus importante de l'entreprise sur le sol américain, notamment pour Audi. À lire aussiTransport maritime : le grand plongeon après les tarifs douaniers américains

     In the long time that Saul has been playing RPGs, there has been some instances where players did some weird things.  At least unexpected things that he saw as both a GM and a Player.  Saul remembers a couple instances where players acting strange may have caused problems in the session.   Jolene relates a story she read online about a player who indeed acted strange for no logical reason that Saul and Jolene did not understand.         What causes players to act in a strange way?  Saul proposes some ideas as to what would make a player to do strange things in a roleplaying game.  From stealing for other character to trying to fight other player's character in a session.  Sometimes players demand that other players act or play in a certain way.   As a GM it is very important to understand why players are acting in a way that could cause problems in a gaming group.          Thank you all for Listening      Web Art by Jim Foster      Episode Art by Michael Shean-Jones     Music by Kramer Guy, song Strange Surf     Available from Tribeofnoise.com    Used Under the Creative Commons License 3.0    https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

Podcast Notes: The Church Front Show - Streaming Showdowns, Volunteer Tech Culture, and Easter Hot Takes Episode Overview In this episode of The Church Front Show, hosts Jake Gosselin and Matt Woltjer discuss several important topics for church tech teams including streaming platform updates, volunteer management challenges, studio equipment upgrades, and Easter service preparation. They also share interesting tech spotlights and clarify Church Front's service offerings. Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:02] Welcome to The Church Front Show with Jake Gosselin and Matt Woltjer Jake introduces himself as "low voltage specialist" while Matt jokes about being the "Stream Deck guy" Mention of Church Front's website and the new "Toolkit" featuring gear packages and bundles Streaming Showdown Follow-Up [01:27] Discussion of Resi's response to their previous streaming platform comparison video Key issues identified by Resi: Tests were conducted on outdated firmware missing critical improvements Resi Mini encoder was configured at a much higher bitrate (15 Mbps vs. 4 Mbps) Jake's acknowledgment: "We messed up. We mess up all the time. Don't take everything we said as the final truth." Explanation of philosophical differences between streaming platforms: BoxCast prioritizes near real-time delivery even with occasional quality reduction Resi prioritizes consistent video quality with accepted delays Matt explains the challenges of recording comparison videos: "We recorded this video three times... you have to basically stop what you're doing, congest your network or cut the cable..." Volunteer Tech Culture Discussion [11:34] Response to a social media post about a 26-year tech volunteer who was abruptly dismissed The volunteer had served for 26 years and was told by a new pastor (8 months at the church) they were "going in a different direction" with no further explanation Perspectives from both sides: Leadership should build relationships and provide clear communication about vision Volunteers should maintain open communication and approach changes with humility Matt's insight: "If you build good relationships with your people, hopefully it never comes to this type of a post... if you can do it through that element of respect and love and relationship, it's going to turn out way better." Studio Updates & Equipment [18:16] Current equipment upgrades: Shure SM7B microphones (not the DB version as intended) Yamaha DM3 mixer CRM 300 camera with a 500 model on the way NDI video integration with ECAMM Uline cafe table (72″ x 36″) Prime Acoustic wall panels Jake's appreciation for ECAMM: "ECAMM now in my opinion is a little bit underrated as a live stream solution for churches" Discussion of ProPresenter's limitation: lack of NDI HX output Church Front Growth [24:24] Announcement about company expansion Currently hiring for a Solutions Specialist role Future need for additional AV technicians for upcoming projects New warehouse space development Applications available through the Church Front website resources page Tech Spotlights [26:31] DIY Front of House Console Build: YouTube creator completely disassembled an Avantis console Integration with rack-mounted computers to create a 4-in-1 system Controls audio, ProPresenter, lighting, and video Matt's warning: "Don't do this until you've had your Avantis for at least two years and the warranty's no longer good."

Jake's warning: "Easter's not the time to try new tech!" Recommendation to plan major tech upgrades months in advance, not weeks before major services Jake: "If you are having to expend all of your creative brain power to put together a tech system that you didn't take the time to learn, test and use, and then your whole week is just consumed with stress... you quite frankly deserve that stress because you did not take the time to be responsible in planning." Matt's reminder: "Your job at that moment is to minister. Even if you're on sound, even if you're on video, your job is to minister, not worry about tech."

In this episode, we sit down with Bob Regular, CEO of Infolinks, to explore the evolving world of programmatic advertising and the rising importance of curation. Bob walks us through his journey in digital media—from the dial-up days to today's complex ad tech ecosystem—offering valuable insights along the way. We dive into how Supply Path Optimization (SPO) is playing a critical role in improving the connection between advertisers and publishers by enhancing media quality and eliminating unnecessary middlemen. Using the analogy of choosing the best billboard location, Bob explains how digital ad placement is just as strategic, with audience targeting and creative messaging being essential for success. We also touch on the often-overlooked challenges of inconsistent naming conventions and unclear attention metrics, and how curation and SPO can help simplify and improve the overall advertising experience. The conversation wraps up with a closer look at the differences between direct and reseller relationships in ad tech, and how SPO is shifting industry priorities. Bob shares key takeaways from recent training sessions with media holding companies, including the major reduction in non-value-adding players since the adoption of ads.txt. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the future of digital advertising and how we can build stronger, more transparent partnerships in the ecosystem.

Global markets did a 180 on Wednesday, marking a historical surge after Trump announced a 90-day reprieve on some his reciprocal tariffs. Thursday morning, markets settled lower at the open as investors remain cautious, recognizing that volatility is far from over.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITHave you ever wondered what happens when online critics attack your creative work? Today's candid morning musings explore my decision to disconnect from YouTube after facing harsh criticism from a commenter who called my podcast "garbage" with "lazy and ineffectual" ideas. This revealing look at handling online negativity sets the stage for a wide-ranging commentary covering memorable stories that deserve attention.The conversation shifts to celebrity culture's disturbing fascination with convicted killers, specifically examining Rosie O'Donnell's shocking statement about Lyle Menendez being "the only white guy she can love and trust." I dive into why this romanticization of the Menendez brothers' crimes is deeply troubling, especially when their claims of self-defense fall apart under scrutiny. Their cold-blooded murder of parents watching television deserves no sympathy, regardless of celebrity endorsement.Most concerning is the underreported story of a 17-year-old Wisconsin teenager who murdered his parents, lived with their bodies for 12 days, then fled with the intention of assassinating former President Trump. Why isn't this frightening case receiving mainstream television coverage? The teen's connections to extremist ideologies raise urgent questions about youth radicalization and selective media attention. I close with reflections on childhood memories of spring cleaning and an invitation for listeners to share their own experiences with this seasonal ritual.

Sometimes I tell people, even if you can just take the word but and replace the word and does the sentence still make sense, just to see what will happen. It's that thing again of how am I hearing what people said and accepting and building on it? My challenge is to try yes and for an entire day, there we go see what happens.

Pastor Jim continues our series Perspectives with a sermon on inviting your friends and family to Easter weekend.

We begin Holy Week with a special look at Jesus' triumphal entry on Palm Sunday.

Join Rev. Brittany and Rev. Hannah as they wrap up the multi-episode conversation on The Stories That Save Us, which has highlighted some favorite stories from the Gospel. This week, the female pastors of the First United Methodist Church of San Diego are focusing on The Story of Forgiveness, leaning into John 8:2-11, the story of the woman caught in the sin of adultery. The pastors speculate the public stoning was a scheme to trap Jesus in a theological battle. After all, why only accuse the woman and not the man? Unfortunately, that trap makes the unnamed woman the front and center of the story, making her an immoral scapegoat to publicly catch Jesus. And it’s been used by Christians for centuries as justification to put others down. But Jesus gives us the blueprint on how to navigate public shaming and judgment of others through verbal and non-verbal engagement and de-escalation. Listen in as the pastors discuss how to navigate sin, condemnation, and forgiveness in a way that’s life giving and can lead us and others toward a new future with a clean slate. We invite you to continue the conversation with friends and family, joining our in-person Convergence discussion group, or visiting our Patreon community where you can unlock more content and inspiration while engaging in online discussion. Here are some questions for you to ponder, as you continue to explore The Story of Forgiveness: If you placed yourself in the story, who would you be or where would you be? Have you ever experienced or extended forgiveness that felt undeserved? What does this story teach us about the nature of God’s forgiveness? We’ll be taking a short break next week as we celebrate Easter (The Story of Hope!) but will be back with a new conversation series on Sunday, April 27.

Part 1 Stop Signs by Yves Engler Summary"Stop Signs: Immigration Politics and the Interruption of the Globalized Labour Force" by Yves Engler explores the complexities of immigration policies in Canada and their interplay with global labor dynamics. Engler critiques the restrictive immigration measures and presents a compelling argument for a more humane and equitable approach to immigration, emphasizing the need to acknowledge the contributions of immigrants to society and the economy. Key Themes:Globalization and Labor: Engler discusses how globalization has influenced labor migration, creating a demand for flexible and cheap labor. He points out the contradiction in how countries benefit from the labor of immigrants while simultaneously imposing strict immigration controls.Political and Economic Factors: The book delves into the politics behind immigration policy, highlighting how economic interests often drive decisions that affect the lives of migrants. Engler argues that policies are often designed to serve capitalist needs rather than human rights.Human Rights Perspective: Engler advocates for an immigration system based on human rights rather than on economic utility. He stresses the negative impact of deportations and temporary work permits on immigrant communities.Activism and Response: Engler encourages activism and public discourse around immigration rights. He suggests that recognizing the contributions of immigrants to society can lead to a more just and inclusive immigration system.
