Here's the thing. Most enterprise AI pitches talk about scale and speed. Fewer talk about trust, tone, and culture. In this conversation with Inflection AI's Amit Manjhi and Shruti Prakash, I explore a different path for enterprise AI, one that combines emotional intelligence with analytical horsepower, enabling teams to ask more informed questions of their data and receive answers that are grounded in context. Amit's story sets the pace. He is a three-time founder, a YC alum, and a CS PhD who has solved complex problems across mobile, ad tech, and data. Shruti complements that arc with a product lens shaped by real operational trenches, from clean rooms to grocery retail analytics.  Together, they built BoostKPI during the pandemic, transforming natural language into actionable insights, and then joined Inflection AI to help refocus the company on achieving enterprise outcomes. Their shared north star is simple to say yet tricky to execute. Make data analysis conversational, accurate, and emotionally aware so people actually use it. We unpack Inflection's shift from Pi's consumer roots to privacy-first enterprise tools. That history matters because it gives the team a head start on EQ. When you combine a deep well of human-to-AI conversations with modern LLMs, you get systems that explain, probe, and adapt rather than dump charts and call it a day.  Shruti breaks down what dialogue with data looks like in practice. Think back-and-forth exchanges that move from "what happened" to "why it happened," then on to "where else this pattern appears" and "what to do next," all grounded in an organization's language and values. Amit takes us under the hood on deployment choices and ownership. If a customer wants on-prem or VPC, they get it. If they're going to fine-tune models to their vernacular, they can. The model, the insights, and the guardrails remain in the customer's control. I enjoyed the honesty around adoption. Chasing AGI makes headlines, but it rarely helps a merchandising manager spot an early drop in lifetime value or a CX lead understand churn risk before quarter end. The duo keeps the conversation grounded in everyday questions that drive numbers and reduce meetings. They describe a path where EQ and IQ come together to form what Shruti calls contextual intelligence, and where brands can trust AI agents to assist without losing ownership or voice. If you care about making data useful to more people, and you want AI that sounds like your company rather than a generic assistant, this one is for you. We cover startup lessons, the reality of cofounding as a couple during lockdowns, and how Inflection is working with large enterprises to bring conversational analysis to real workloads. It is a grounded look at where enterprise AI is heading, and a timely reminder that technology should elevate humans, not replace them. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job  in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

Ljudje smo težko ves čas motivirani, enostavno nam zmanjka volje.

Živelný průběh duelu v Černé Hoře sice přinesl tři kvalifikační body, jenže zoufalé vystoupení Haškova týmu v přípravě proti Saúdské Arábii opět zintenzivnilo debaty o možné změně na pozici trenéra české fotbalové reprezentace. Výraznou novou figurou, která se v posledních týdnech zapojila do dění kolem národního týmu je Pavel Nedvěd, dlouholetý reprezentační kapitán a posléze mimo jiné špičkový funkcionář Juventusu, který se nyní etabloval v roli generálního manažera české reprezentace.Jakkoli se jak on, tak i trenér Ivan Hašek navenek tváří, že jejich spolupráce je přímo úžasná, ze zákulisí prosakují zvěsti, že mezi nimi rozhodně není nouze o třecí plochy.Je veřejným tajemstvím, že po debaklu v Chorvatsku prosadil Pavel Nedvěd výměnu na pozici brankářské jedničky. V Černé Hoře, v dalším pokračování kvalifikace o MS 2026, dostal před Matějem Kovářem přednost zkušenější a vyzrálejší Jindřich Staněk.Nosiči vody zmínili slovenské úspěchy pod vedením italského trenéra Francesca Calzony, ale zaměřili se také na tuzemský přestupní trh, na němž rezonovalo masivní posílení Pardubic nebo pozoruhodná hráčská výměna na trase Slavia-Baník.---Nosiči vodyFotbalový podcast Seznam Zpráv.

Piše Majda Travnik Vode, bereta Igor Velše in Mateja Perpar. Za nekaj breztežnih, skorajda hipnotičnih trenutkov se zazdi, da se bo zgodila pripovedna čarovnija; da se bo prvi roman Maja Haderlap Angel pozabe na nevidni razpoki kot živo srebro prelil v novega, Ženske v temi, in se bosta knjigi strnili v nedeljivo celoto. Ta vzgib je morda posledica neubranljive sile pričakovanja; v Angelu pozabe avtorica hkrati z apokalipso koroških Slovencev med drugo svetovno vojno in po njej izriše nepozabna družinska in družbena portreta babice Mici in očeta Zdravka, medtem ko lik matere ostane oklevajoče ambivalenten – in zato toliko bolj vznemirljiv. Zato ne preseneča, da ob podatku na začetku romana Ženske v temi, da se bo protagonistka z Dunaja odpeljala k ostareli mami na Koroško, samodejno potegnemo sklep, da bo avtorica družinsko galerijo podaljšala z monumentalnim portretom matere. In vendar ne: roman Ženske v temi po nekaj uvodnih zamahih krene v povsem drugo smer, na drugačna tematska križišča in v drugačno atmosfero kot Angel pozabe; še najbolj pa preseneti drugačen, poenostavljeno rečeno, veliko bolj negotov notranji tempo romana. V Angelu pozabe, čeprav zvečine pisanim iz otroške perspektive (Drago Jančar ga je po Lojzetu Kovačiču parafraziral Deklica in smrt), so vsebinska in vrednostna razmerja in stališča jasna; in temu sledi tudi pisava. Nasprotno Ženske v temi – kot v retrovizorju nemara sugerira že naslov – že v uvodnih akordih zazvenijo tipajoče, krhko in že tudi nekoliko nepovezano, pri čemer je osrednji katalizator tovrstnega vzdušja ranljiva in razpršena protagonistka Mira, za katero se zdi, da jo je avtorica zavestno umestila daleč proč od brezimne, a notranje veliko bolj navzoče prvoosebne pripovedovalke v Angelu pozabe. Deklica, kasneje mladostnica, v Angelu pozabe sama pri sebi ves čas dobro vé in ubeseduje, kdo je in kaj se ji dogaja, medtem ko Mira v Ženskah v temi samo sebe zaznava nekako haptično, tako da se poraja vtis, kot da zmore zgolj občasno slediti valovanju svoje zavesti. Mirino stanje občasno spomni na junake Marka Sosiča: »To je kača, ki leže jajca v meni, je tuhtala Mira, ta žival je večna, razmnožuje se po železni, zame nedoumljivi zakonitosti. Začutila je plamtenje hladnega ognja, ki se je sprijel v visok, vse višji vrtinec plamenov, se najprej zatikajoče se, naposled pa odločno in neomajno razmahnil in požgal vse, kar ga je skušalo ustaviti.« Razlogov za Mirino bolj ali manj stalno tesnobo je veliko; eden od najbolj pomenljivih je jezik, saj Mira, Koroška Slovenka, ne v slovenščini ne v nemščini nima besed za svoja občutja: »V Mirini družini so zaupali robatim tonom, za vse so bili nekaj najbolj običajnega. ( … ) S tem jezikom je Mira zrasla, bil je njen dejanski materni jezik, robat in skrčen na najnujnejše, jezik, ki jo je izoblikoval in ki se mu ni mogla drugače postaviti po robu, kakor da se mu je izmaknila, se ogradila od njega.« Povod za tokratni Mirin odhod z Dunaja je obisk ostarele matere v domači podjunski vasi. Stik z domačim okoljem opiše z besedami: »Bil je zadah umiranja, sladkoben in žarek, četudi opojen zadah umiranja življenja.« Še prej v besedilu svojo vas imenuje »past«, ob čemer se spomnimo na dekličin citat iz Angela pozabe, ko prihaja na počitnice: »Domači griči se preobrazijo v past, ki vsako poletje seže po meni in me zgrabi.« 'Past' je torej eden od skupnih in hkrati najbolj simptomatičnih in izzivalnih toposov obeh romanov. To, da obe protagonistki koroške vasi in njihov okoliš, imenujeta 'past', nazorno govori, kako trpko je, zlasti za mladega človeka, biti koroški Slovenec, vsak trenutek izpostavljen in zaznamovan. Mira ni dovolj pogumna, da bi se borila za slovenstvo, kar pa ne pomeni, da se ji ob prihodu vsakič znova ne vzbudijo mešani občutki odpadništva in pripadnosti slovenski manjšini. Ob snidenju z materjo po dolgem času spregovori v slovenščini, naslednji dan pa med opravki v Železnem Dolu, majhnem sosednjem mestu, nepričakovano naleti na Jurija, svojo mladostno ljubezen, in se dogovori za zmenek. Z Jurijem se je razšla, ker je podtaknil razstrelivo pod električno napeljavo, da bi mednarodno javnost opozoril na koroški problem. Jurij je torej drugačen od nje, ki je pred »nevšečnostjo biti koroški Slovenec« pobegnila na Dunaj, se poročila z Avstrijcem Martinom in se zaposlila v knjižnici. Ko Mira med obiskom preiskuje vzroke za svoje partnerske, identitetne in duševne težave, se med drugim spominja, kako ji je okolica kot otroku nič krivi naprtila krivdo za očetovo smrt (ta motiv se ujema z utopitvijo v Angelu pozabe) in kako je ob tem čutila, da jo mati zaradi tega sovraži (mati ji to zdaj tudi potrdi), ter kako so jo kot deklico otipavali in nadlegovali vaški pijanci. Za to, da bi odkrila poglavitni vzrok svojih težav, pa sluti, da bi morala »pobrskati pod pepel druge svetovne vojne« – kar pa se ji zdi tako neznosno, da se temu takoj odpove: »Bala se je, da se kot potomka žrtev nasilja ne bi več rešila iz klobčiča vezi in ne bi mogla nikomur razložiti, zakaj se ne vidi kot Slovenko.« Poleg tega Mira med pospravljanjem najde anketo, s katero je pred diplomo raziskovala položaj koroških Slovenk, pa tudi svoj najstniški dnevnik iz časa, ko je zanosila, splavila in pristala na psihiatriji. Mira si med vračanjem h koreninam torej prizadeva, da bi poiskala vzroke za svoje osebno počutje in nelagodje v (slovenski) kulturi – in jih najdeva vsenaokrog, vendar zaenkrat nima moči, da bi jih presegla; tako tudi ni čudno, da konec njene zgodbe ostane povsem odprt. V drugem delu, v trenutku Mirinega odhoda na Dunaj, roman preklopi na pripoved Mirine mame Ani, pri čemer nemudoma izstopi neskladnost predstav, ki jih imata mati in hči druga o drugi. Jasno je, da je Ani kljub telesni betežnosti duhovno in miselno prožna, tudi sama pa se, ob selitvi iz domače hiše v varovano okolje, znajde na križpotju. Tudi Ani ne razpolaga z jezikom za svoje spomine in občutja, zato ji pride na misel, da bi si življenje najlaže približala z risanjem: »Če bi hotela narisati svojo mater, bi jo kot temno gorsko kraljico, ki živi v ledu in premore lastnost, da ob nekaterih dnevih stopi na dan kot velikanka, ob drugih dneh pa je prozorno bitje.« V primerjavi s hčerjo Ani deluje veliko bolj uravnoteženo; zdi se, da predvsem zahvaljujoč svoji sposobnosti, da se pravočasno ustavi pred usodnimi vprašanji, nekako v skladu z Nietzschejevim spoznanjem, da če predolgo gledamo v brezno, nas lahko brezno pogleda nazaj. Ani je – morda tudi zaradi globoke osebne vere – podarjeno, da je brezno ne privlači predolgo ... Ta lastnost je dobro vidna ob njenem premišljevanju o materi Neži, za katero Ani ni nikoli dokončno dognala, ali je bila žrtvujoča se svetnica ali gostilniška lahkoživka. Ko se v Ani poleže trenutno vznemirjenje, lahko mirno in razsodno živi naprej življenje slehernice. Njena nedoslednost v spoznavanju je eden od vidikov njene osebnosti, zaradi katerega ostaja ženska v temi, in hkrati učinkovit preživetveni mehanizem. Maja Haderlap v knjigi Ženske v temi odpira večna vprašanja človeške bližine, ženske in narodnostne identitete, odnosov med materami in hčerami, strategij soočanja s travmami, minevanja in drugih, vendar se ob koncu zdi, da ji ni uspelo poiskati tako učinkovitih notranje- in zunanjeformalnih kanalov za posredovanje svojih tematik kot v romanu Angel pozabe. Lika Mire in Ani nista dovolj karizmatična in večplastna, da bi iz njiju lahko zrasel prepričljiv skelet romana (medtem ko njuni potencialno veliko bolj zagonetni sorodnici, Neža in Dragica, ostaneta v ozadju). Kot kontrapunkt premalo magnetičnima junakinjama bi avtorica verjetno lahko učinkovito zgradila dinamično zunanje dogajanje, vendar je tega malo, zgolj za nujni okvir. Notranji tonus pripovedi rahljajo tudi dolgi, ponekod preveč površinski oziroma pozunanjeni opisi, ki večkrat nimajo dovolj razvidnega vpliva na dogajanje in razvoj romana. Delež bežnih impresij, spominov, opisov in drugih zastranitev je tolikšen, da se izgubljata rdeča nit in linearnost romana, fokus pripovedi pa dodatno zamegljuje tematska neosredotočenost, saj ni povsem jasno, kaj avtorica izpostavlja kot ključen Mirin oziroma Anin problem, in, v povezavi s tem, kaj je središčna tema romana – duševna neravnovesja, identiteta ali odnos med materami in hčerami? Roman tako ves čas nekako niha in od bralca pogosto terja, da si ga sam osmišlja in razlaga. Ženske v temi ponujajo zanimive nastavke, ki pa so izpeljani preveč nejasno, da bi jih forma romana lahko ustrezno podčrtala in povzdignila. Kot da roman že po svoji naravi terja odločnejšo strukturo, zato bi bilo nemara zanimivo preizkusiti, kako bi avtoričine tokratne literarne odločitve učinkovale v krajših formah.

Na Festivalu mlade literature Urška leta 2013 je bila pesnica Tina Volarič zaradi poezije, ki jo je žirija zaznala kot redkost, izbrana za najperspektivnejšo mlado literatko leta. Da premore skorajda naraven talent za mišljenje vsebine, iz katere so stkane njene izdelane pesmi, polne medbesedilnih, medumetniških navezav in hkrati z odprto strukturo. Za nagrado je naslednje leto izšel njen prvenec. Čeprav naslov Krožnice večglasnih tišin pravi drugače, je njena dokaj epsko zasnovana govorica glasna, ko se sprašuje, kje je njeno mesto v tem svetu, kje je resnica, kje je naša človečnost? Ne izogiba se komentarjem o feminizmu, politiki, enakopravnosti, državotvornosti. Pesnica, ki ve, da je svet obstajal dolgo, preden je sama vstopila vanj. Obrača se k naravi, skupnosti in prednikom in ve tudi, kaj so domovina, žrtve in vojna. Vendar v tej zbirki pesmi brez moraliziranja išče druge različice na temo preživetja, pri čemer »si dovoli smešno misel svojega rodu, / da so oblaki morda srečni«. Ko na koncu zbirke ni ničesar več za besedami prvega, drugega in tretjega glasu, postane njena zadnja pesem tišina. In se, skupaj s svojimi ilustracijami krogov, ki nimajo ne začetka ne konca, vrne k svoji pesmi začetka, ki je zanjo »razpolovljena praznina«. Tina Volarič je pesnica, ilustratorka in aktivna opazovalka svojega procesa ustvarjanja. Žanrsko ostaja v območju narave, pri čemer pa nikakor ne gre za podobe zgolj z očesom zajetega življenja v njej, še manj za idealizirano lovljenje svetlobnih razpoloženj, temveč so v verze ujete metafore njenega intimnega notranjega sveta in tišine, ki se lahko bere tudi kot refleksija trenutnega stanja njenega kritičnega odnosa do sodobnega dogajanja. Zato ni presenetljivo, da je v letih med 2019 in 2023 sodelovala pri mednarodnem raziskovalnem projektu pod vodstvom finske filozofije dr. Miire Tuominen, v katerem so se filozofi raziskovalno ukvarjali z naravo in moralnim statusom živali v antiki in srednjem veku. Značilnost pesmi in podob v njeni drugi izdani pesniški zbirki Nekje notri je uho je na prvi pogled popolna zvestoba motivom, ki jih je začela preigravati v svoji bogato ilustrirani dvojezični poetični knjigi umetnice Sosedje in tovariši / Neighbours and companions, ki je – na dvesto straneh! – v samo triindvajsetih izvodih izšla leta 2023. Tako vzpostavljeno drugačno razmerje do sveta, ki človeka na poseben način osvobaja, jo je s pozornim notranjim posluhom umetniško vznemirilo kot ilustratorko in pesnico. Že v šestnajstem stoletju je angleški pesnik John Donne o povezanosti z naravo napisal slavne verze, ki danes, v času katastrof in podnebnih sprememb, zvenijo še bolj živo resnični kot nekoč: »Noben človek ni otok, popolnoma sam zase; … in zato nikdar ne pošiljaj poizvedovat, komu zvoni; zvoni tebi.« Z bogato ilustrirano unikatno knjigo, ki jo je sofinansirala fundacija Kone iz Finske, je Tini Volarič uspelo – žal sprva le redkim bralcem – pripeljati živali v naša srca. Zbirka pesmi Nekje notri je uho, v kateri je vseh petnajst pesmi iz te pesničine bibliofilske knjige umetnice, obogatenih s petintridesetimi novimi, je zato morala ugledati luč sveta, da bi z zvočno čutnostjo razširila krila med bralce. Ena od velikih skrivnosti, ki je ob vseh presunljivih pesničinih liričnih prispodobah in vživljanjih vanje najbrž nikoli ne bomo razvozlali, je, kako svet dojemajo živali in rastline, kakšna je njihova resničnost. Kaj čutijo mlade košute, ki brskajo za sledmi in semeni, za vabo pomladnih svetlob? O čem razmišljajo ptice, milostne spremljevalke nakodranega vetra, razgrnjene glasnice kipečega petja? O čem tuhta zimska ptičica, ki skače in se oglaša cvrr-civk, naglašen tako, da nima z upehano uro nič skupnega, čeprav se ujemata? O čem sanja pes, ki izpod snega ujame redek zapisani vonj? »Nekega dne / je od neznano kje prispela / kolonija tjulnjev / in se nagnila na / nenaseljen prostor / med palcem in kazalcem / moje leve roke. // Kar dobro se razumemo. / od tedaj pravzaprav živim / polno življenje.« (Življenje je nepredvidljivo) O čem piše, kaj čuti pesnica v starem sadovnjaku s koščkom sadeža, popkom sveta v svojem grlu, ko pogoltne slino in postane jablana? Ko lahko le tiho opazuje, kako mlada srna nemoteno grizlja veje po planetariju, ko šteje drobne utrinke jabolk. Ko njeno besedo napolni voda in jo razlije čez brzice, curke, padce, mokrice, lagune, jezera v morje. V ocean besed, kjer valuje brezčasje: »Nebo pljusne / skozi odprta / usta noči.« Pisateljica Katherine Rundell v knjigi The Golden Mole: and Other Living Treasure (Zlati krt: in drugi živi zakladi) opisuje dvaindvajset znanih in manj znanih ogroženih živali. Želela je, da bi se zaradi opisanih resničnih zgodbic bralci spet navdušili in zaljubili v lepoto sveta, v njihovo krhkost in nenavadnost. Tudi ob branju pesmi Tine Volarič, ki si na svoj intimno razgaljajoč način želi isto, se zavemo, da smo si ljudje in živali bolj podobni, kot si želimo priznati in kot vemo. Privlačnost, ljubezen, zapeljivost, sla, materinstvo, uživanje v pomladnih razigranostih, v dobri hrani – vse to so človeški in živalski instinkti. Skupne so tudi stvari, ki se jim želimo izogniti: trpljenje, izguba, ponižanje, osamljenost, bolečina, bolezen in smrt. Kljub precej široki paleti značajskih lastnosti vse upesnjene like, ki iskrijo presunljivo podobo večini nevidnega sveta, druži kronična ujetost v pesničini notranjosti, ko poistovetena z njimi spretno razkriva zamolčane in temačnejše teme. Te tudi v bledih konturah vsakdana puščajo nezamenljivo sled, pesničina nesporna zmožnost vživljanja pa daje občutek, da so živali in rastline, ki jim je vdahnila življenje v besedah, dejansko otipljiva bitja. Pesmi in podobe Tine Volarič v knjigi Nekje notri je uho nagovarjajo k drugačnim oblikam bivanja, so etična zaveza k spoštovanju vsega bivajočega: »Krompirjevo očesce me gleda / naravnost v oči, / ne odmakne pogleda, / vse bolj vame vidi, vedno globlje gre. / Spusti veko, jo dvigne, / požene kalček.« (Zapeljevanje I) Tako pesmi občutkov, ki si jih delimo z vsem bivajočim na zemlji, kot avtoričine ilustracije izhajajo iz občutja narave kot brezčasnega prostora, v katerem Tina Volarič vzpostavlja svoj red simbolnega odnosa do vsega bivajočega. Podobe gozdnih pokrajin ne predstavljajo sveta, ampak njegov duhovni odzven, fraktalno povezanost, vsenavzočnost, vsepovezanost. avtoričine temno simbolne ilustracije z vejami objemajočih se dreves zato ne potrebujejo ne razlage ne naslovov, saj je pomen ravno v odsotnosti konkretnega pomena. Vse, kar je, je občutek povezanosti med človekom, živalmi, rastlinami in pokrajino. Ne kot razmerje, temveč kot enovitost. V teh pesmih in podobah Tine Volarič se uresniči redka umetniška alkimija, ki povezuje naravo, čas, svetlobo in človeka v en sam trenutek tišine. »V oboke vršanja. V oboke besed. / Nekje tu notri je uho. // Poslušaj.«

W lipcu 1904 roku w Tokio doszło do niespodziewanego spotkania dwóch późniejszych ojców polskiej niepodległości - Józefa Piłsudskiego i Romana Dmowskiego. W cieniu wojny rosyjsko-japońskiej obaj polityczni rywale prowadzili rozmowy z japońskimi władzami, próbując wpłynąć na przyszłość Polski. Jakie plany mieli politycy? Czy Japonia mogła stać się sojusznikiem Polski? Kto wyszedł zwycięsko z tej dyplomatycznej konfrontacji? O tym opowiadamy w tym odcinku Misji specjalnej.

Czy w temacie szkolenia powinniśmy w Polsce podglądać inne kraje?

Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez en la Barcelona del siglo XIV un rey llamado Pedro el ceremonioso que decidio construir una iglesia que tuviera  el campanario más alto de la región. El proyecto tenía pues un campanario de forma octagonal con una altura que fácilmente superaría cualquier otra construcción de aquella Barcelona del los años 1300. Habiéndose recibido el donativo del rey Pedro III la institución decide contratara lo antes posible a los constructores y la obra inicia conmemorando el espíritu religioso de la ciudad. Aquella iglesia se erigiría como símbolo de fe y poder y se consagraría a la virgen del pino. Llamándola santa Maria del PI. Nombre que conserva en la actualidad. Se dice que las obras de construcción de la torre de la iglesia se comenzaron en el año 1379 gracias a la donación del Rey Pedro y se contrato un primer arquitecto. Cuando la construcción de la torre inicio, los obreros notaron que permanentemente comenzaban a aparecer problemas en la construcción. Cada vez que los obreros empezaban a levantar la estructura, algo ocurría: grietas, derrumbes, accidentes inexplicables Alguna vez la torre se cayo por su propio peso, se agrietaban sus paredes o simplemente no mantenía la armonía necesaria para mantenerse en pie. . Finalmente después de el intento de varios arquitectos fue contratado El maestro de obras, un hombre llamado Bartome más quien desde el inicio  comenzó a obsesionarse con la obra.  Decía que el monte de piedra que venia de las canteras de  Montjuïc, con el que se construía la torre, tenía memoria y que por esta razón la torre no quería ser terminada. Sin embargo era tal su resolución que decidio encontrar una manera para superar estos problemas. Una noche sin luna, Bartome subió solo a la torre inacabada. Encendió velas negras, trazó símbolos en la piedra y pronunció palabras que no aprendió en ningún libro cristiano. Invocó al diablo, El diablo interesado siempre en quien lo invocara se hizo presente allí mismo y preguntándole a Bartome por que era invitado este respondió. Quiero tener tu ayuda en la construcción de esta torre del campanario. Te daría mi alma a cambio de que las piedras se presten para trabajar juntas en este proyecto. El diablo sonriendo escucho claramente que Bartome Más le ofrecía el alma y como el diablo nunca rechaza un trato así, acepto de inmediato pero colocando una garantía más. Le ayudaría a Bartome pero no esperaría a que el campanario se terminara. Debía recibir el alma del arquitecto cuando la escalera de caracol que se encontraría dentro de aquella torre octagonal llegara al peldaño 100. Allí cuando llegara el diablo reclamaría el alma de aquel hábil constructor.  Y así comenzaron de nuevo la construcción de campanario. Y todo comenzó a salir a la perfección. Tanto así que los trabajadores no entendían como ahora si su construcción crecía y crecía sin ningun problema. Ellos pensaban que aquella torre no se construiría jamás y que estaba realmente maldecida. Lo que no sabía es que el bueno de Bartome realmente se estaba jugando su alma en dicha torre. Pero metro a metro la torre iba creciendo y en su interior escalón a escalón la escalera iba igualmente creciendo acercándose al numero 100 que se había pactado con el demonio.  Bartome veía su obra creciendo y en su alma un plan comenzaba a fraguarse. Sabía que debido al pacto en cuanto la escalera llegara al escalón 100 perdería el alma y el amaba su vida como era actualmente. Así que tramo un trampa al demonio.. Construyó la torre hasta el escalón noventa y nueve, y luego sin dar explicaciones a los obreros detuvo la obra. Y Dedicó el resto de su vida a trabajar

Koliko puta ste izgovorili "Samo želim da moje dijete bude sigurno"? U ovoj epizodi govorimo o tome kako roditeljski strah – iako prirodan – često vodi do kontrole, ograničavanja i manipulacije pod krinkom zaštite. Umjesto da im namećemo odluke, djeci trebamo dati prostor da misle, pogriješe i uče – jer samo tako grade samopouzdanje i emocionalnu snagu. Poslušajte i zapitajte se: Odgajamo li iz ljubavi ili iz straha?

È scomparso all età di 91 anni Giorgio Armani, stilista e imprenditore, tra i nomi più famosi della moda made in Italy nel mondo. Esattamente 50 anni fa aveva fondato la Giorgio Armani, azienda che oggi rappresenta uno dei colossi della moda italiana nel mondo con ricavi per 2,3 miliardi di euro e attività nei settori della moda, della ristorazione e dell hotellerie. Qualche giorno fa aveva rilevato anche la storica Capannina di Forte dei Marmi.Il «Signor Armani», che era nato a Piacenza nel 1934 e aveva spento 91 candeline proprio lo scorso 11 luglio, aveva vissuto un estate complicata dal punto di vista della salute. Tanto che, per la prima volta nella storia della sua lunga carriera, non aveva presenziato alle sfilate maschili di Milano e a quella della collezione Giorgio Armani Privé a Parigi, destando qualche preoccupazione ma continuando pedissequamente a lavorare dietro le quinte.La gestione del suo impero che supera i 10 miliardi, come programmato da tempo, passa alla fondazione guidata da Pantaleo Dell Orco, braccio destro del fondatore, al nipote Luca Camerana e a Irving Bellotti, ad di Rothschild italia, storico banchiere d affari che ha sempre accompagnato lo stilista piacentino nel suo percorso imprenditoriale. È dal 2016 che è stata pianificata la successione, con la nascita della fondazione e di un triumvirato di persone di fiducia, capaci di traghettare l azienda nel prossimo secolo di successi. La mission della fondazione, che ora dovrebbe ereditare anche il controllo dell azienda, è assicurare l attenzione all innovazione, all eccellenza, qualità e ricerca del prodotto . L approccio alle acquisizioni dovrà essere cauto , con la stessa cautela con cui è stata gestita l'azienda finora, e volto a sviluppare competenze non ancora presenti in azienda.La fondazione dovrà "perseguire un adeguato livello di investimenti per lo sviluppo dei marchi, una gestione finanziaria equilibrata e un moderato ricorso all indebitamento, oltre a un adeguato livello di reinvestimento degli utili della Giorgio Armani . È inoltre previsto che la fondazione non distribuisca utili, patrimonio o avanzi di gestione, operazioni "espressamente vietate anche in via indiretta: eventuali utili e avanzi saranno impiegati per le attività istituzionali".Il commento di Giulia Crivelli, Il Sole 24 Ore.Ue-Mercosur, Bruxelles offre nuove garanzie agli agricoltoriL'accordo deve essere approvato dal Consiglio e dal Parlamento. La speranza è che la ratifica possa concludersi entro la fine dell anno. L intesa commerciale era stata firmata in dicembre. Dopo mesi di revisione legale e di traduzione nelle diverse lingue è stata ufficialmente presentata ieri. L aspetto più interessante sono le clausole di salvaguardia che devono evitare squilibri nell import-export di prodotti delicati, soprattutto agricoli. Oltre al capitolo dedicato a questo argomento e previsto nel testo dell accordo, Bruxelles ha illustrato un atto giuridico che rende operative le stesse clausole.Parlando in conferenza stampa ieri pomeriggio qui a Bruxelles, il commissario al commercio Maros Sefcovic ha spiegato: «Non stiamo in alcun modo riaprendo l intesa.Vogliamo solo rassicurare i Paesi membri (...) In concreto, vogliamo adottare un monitoraggio rafforzato delle importazioni in alcuni settori. Ogni sei mesi pubblicheremo i dati in tutta trasparenza. Se dovessero emergere anomalie nei flussi commerciali, potremo introdurre misure provvisorie». Il monitoraggio riguarderà in particolare prodotti sensibili quali la carne di manzo, il pollo e lo zucchero.Più concretamente, la Commissione potrà avviare una indagine quando noterà un aumento delle importazioni di almeno il 10% e un calo dei prezzi all importazione di almeno il 10% rispetto ai prezzi interni. Più in generale, l intesa commerciale stabilisce il diritto per le parti contraenti di adottare misure di salvaguardia bilaterali, nel caso di danno economico.Sono intervenuti Micaela Cappellini, Il Sole 24 Ore e Ettore Prandini, Presidente Coldiretti.

Geoff and Marie's Good Life: Part 5Share the LoveBased on posts by Only In My Mind, in 15 parts. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.A retired couple have an intriguing offer for her friends.Main characters.Geoff;  The narrator. A retired materials scientist. Mid-sixties. 5 foot 10 inches, ex amateur rugby player, still swims, runs and walks to keep fit. More than adequately equipped to satisfy his wife.Marie;  Geoff's wife. A retired modern languages lecturer. Same age as her husband. 5 foot 2 inches voluptuous build, with D cup tits and proportionate bum and hips. Shoulder length brown hair, brown eyes and olive skin inherited from her French grandmother.Angie;  Marie's best friend. A mathematician who claims to be retired. Geoff suspects that she still consults as a cryptographer for M I 5 at GCHQ but she won't discuss it. Early sixties. 5 foot 10 inches, slender athletic build. Firm B cup tits, brown hair and famously dirty mind.Even with my science degrees, I never really sat and thought about it in much more detail. And now; well here I was, exploring my wife's inner mysteries with my cock. Her channel felt very different to a cunt and the sphincter gripping round my root felt a little intimidating; like it could grip really tight and cut off my circulation.Anyway, we were where we were, so I sought guidance. "Are you okay, love?" I was starting to feel a little guilty."If I'm being honest," she replied. "I'm feeling a little conflicted right now." She gave a little shudder. "It doesn't hurt and it feels really naughty but, at the same time it feels as though I'm terminally constipated and pooing backwards.""I can pull out if you want me to," I offered. "Or I can move in and out to see how it feels for you.""Give me a minute to get my head together," she said. "Then you can start fucking me."Some of the guidance we'd read on-line suggested that playing with the woman's clit as the man stroked, enhanced her pleasure so I reached down between her thighs and started to rub the shy little nubbin."Oh, Geoff, Yes," she moaned.I wasn't sure whether that was an instruction to commence or just recognition of my efforts to date, but I decided to use my initiative and start moving. Very slowly at first, I pulled my hips back and when I felt the pressure of her ring on my cock head I pushed back inside again. Marie gasped. Result! I did it again. Marie moaned, I did it again, faster this time and still rubbing her clit and she lifted to meet me. I could tell that, whatever we decided in the future, right now she wanted me to fuck her up the bum, so I did just that.She was still aroused from our earlier games, so I wasn't surprised when she built to another orgasm in only a few minutes, Perhaps it was a combination of the condom and the lube but it took me twice as long to climax which gave Marie the chance to hit another one just before I blew.Once she subsided I grabbed a tissue from the table and pulled the condom off, wrapped another tissue around it and dropped it by the bed. I put my hand either side of her head and bent to kiss her. "Well babe?" I whispered. "Was that; A;  Awful and disgusting? B;  An interesting one-off? Or C;  A treat for special occasions?"She turned over and snuggled up to me as she pondered. "I'm glad we did it," she said thoughtfully. "And I'm glad you wanted to share it with me the first time." She gave me a big hug. "That was sweet and makes me feel special."I hugged her back. "You are all kinds of special," I told her."I think," she began. "I'd like to do it at least once more, but bareback. Feeling you inside me and not the condom. I'm also intrigued to find out what it would be like to feel you come in my bum. But I think we should only do that after I've washed inside. I'm not convinced it's a weekly event because it seems like a lot of effort for an orgasm, when you already gave me four just getting me ready.We laid and kissed for a while until her busy little fingers had me hard again and so, courtesy of her promise to give me a proper seeing to and the effects of the ED22, she was walking very gingerly the following morning.Oh, yes. I forgot to ask her that night, until after she'd dozed off from exhaustion, who her first students were going to be. I remembered over breakfast and she got all excited again. Marie's Language School's first students were going to be Jo and Kate.After breakfast on Saturday morning I did an inspection of the garden to see what jobs needed doing before the nights drew in and the weather got too unpredictable. The lawn would need mowing a couple of times more, at least, before winter, there was a fence post that looked rather suspect and a couple of trees needed cutting back. And all that was in addition to the routine dead-heading and weeding in the borders and containers. Anyway, the lawn needed doing first, so I got on with that.I was almost done when Marie shouted from the kitchen door. "Geoff! Megan's on the phone. Charles would love to see you and, if we go after lunch, Megan and I can go and check out that new lingerie shop near their place." I gave her a thumbs-up and finished off the lawn.After I had cleaned up we sat on the patio, enjoying what could be one of the few remaining opportunities for coffee in the garden this year. Marie was watching me closely again."What?" I asked."Do you know what you're going to say to Charles yet?" She asked softly."Not really," I replied. "Actually, you might be able to help." She looked quizzically at me. "Do you know how much Megan tells him about what goes on when she's with you and the others?" I askedMarie pursed her lips. "I can't be absolutely certain, but I think she tells him most of what goes on, and possibly everything. Since he's been housebound, he sort of relies on Megan to keep him up to date on all the gossip and stuff."I went back to my thoughts and my wife let me be, picking up the empty cups and going back inside.Megan met us at the door when we arrived at their place: and what a place. Just too small to be a mansion, it was at least twice the size of our house. The décor and furnishings were understated and elegant and undoubtedly expensive. She showed us both into a small sitting room where Charles greeted us. I was glad to see that he didn't look as frail as I feared, in fact he looked good for his age, but he apologized for not standing up. Marie, bless her, went straight over to him and gave him a big hug and a kiss on the cheek."It's lovely to see you again Charles, but Megan and I have shops to hit before they close. Is it okay if I come and chat when we get back?""I'd love that, Marie," he said with a big smile. And with lots of goodbyes the girls left.As I hesitated, still deciding how to open our conversation, Charles spoke first. "Now then, young man. What are your intentions towards my wife?" I jumped, startled. He sat back in his chair, wheezing with laughter. "Oh, you should see your face, old chap," he chortled. "It's a picture.""So," I guessed. "Megan's like Marie then? Likes to share little snippets?""I think that verbatim transcripts would be a more accurate description. For example, did you really make a sex video?" I nodded. "And did you and Marie really have a three way with Angela?""We did," I admitted. "More than once.""My God! And did you really masturbate Lucy to orgasm in front of the others?""I had to," I said firmly. "Because her husband wouldn't touch her, and blamed her for being too unattractive.""The man's an ass," he said dismissively. "Megan loathes him. I think she has a soft spot for Lucy."I decided to be honest. "I think it may even be more than that. What's the female equivalent of a 'bromance'?"He cocked his head at me. "Are you sure?"I shook my head. "No. I'm not certain but when Megan was describing Sam's divorce and even her own situation, she was matter-of-fact. But when she described Lucy's she was, let's say, much more passionate. As in, she described Eddie as an, I quote, 'overweight bladder of alcohol and lard pretending to be a man', while describing Lucy as a 'goddess'."Charles sat back and considered. "I will think more on that," he said, eventually. "Thank you old man, for being so frank. Now, do I get to see this video? It appears that everyone else has."It occurred to me that I was about to show an old friend images of my naked wife having sex, and then I realized, six other people had already seen it, with my prior approval. The only difference was that Charles was a man. Why did that matter so much to me? I glanced around the room and on the wall behind me was a decent sized, modern, flat screen TV facing Charles's chair. I looked at him for approval and switched it on. It was simple then to cast the video from my phone to the screen. We watched in silence as Marie and I copied the two gorgeous young people coupling on a porn site video.When it was over, Charles looked me in the eye. "Is that what you propose to do to my wife?""Not specifically. No." I replied. "But I have agreed with Marie that I'll do just about anything her friends ask, as long as it doesn't harm them, me or my marriage. Those are my boundaries. If Marie or the girls, individually or as a group, set others, then I'll respect those too.""And if I have boundaries?" He asked."Then discuss them with your wife; she will tell me and I'll respect them."He laughed. "I have only one condition," he said. "My wife engaging in sex with you and her friends at your home is only acceptable because my ill health prevents me from satisfying her. Meeting you for sex under any other circumstances is not.""I agree, Charles. probably for the same reason. Marie's sole concern was to let her friends enjoy sex; we won't let this arrangement descend into affairs. We have too much to lose. Inevitably, the intimacy between us all will result in some affection, but that's all. If I meet Megan in town, then I will happily take her for a coffee, but you have my word there will be no clandestine trysts.""Good man," he said. "Now, Megan said she'd left drinks in the kitchen, if you'd be so kind, and then perhaps you can tell me why the team is only mid table this season."We were still arguing about rugby when our wives arrived back, just after six. Marie came to join us while Megan went into the kitchen. My wife surprised me as much as Charles when she sat on his lap and told me to go and help Megan put some food out while they caught up. Apparently they had stopped off for a Thai takeaway. rather than have Megan start cooking when they got home.Charles was still capable of moving around the house, albeit slowly, so all four of us gathered round the small table in the kitchen and laughed and joked as we ate.As Megan tidied the table my wife turned to me. "Geoff. Would it be alright if Megan and I modelled the results of our shopping for you and Charles?" I heard Megan gasp. Marie must be winging this.I considered her request and my best guess at the thinking behind it. I decided to indulge in a little mischief of my own. "I suppose that since Charles has just watched the video of you naked and having sex, the sight of you in your underwear probably isn't crossing any lines."Charles and I both grinned at the expressions on our wives' faces. The girls recovered well though, and disappeared upstairs laden with bags. I think that was the first time that I'd ever heard the usually composed Megan actually giggle. While they were changing I helped Charles back to the sitting room, via the downstairs bathroom which was on the way. We both decided to settle on the two seater sofa opposite the door, which, once I'd moved a couple of chairs, provided a nice open space for our ladies to parade in.They came in together, holding hands for mutual support. Charles and I both gaped at the vision before us. Marie was, just, in a pale blue bustier that cupped and lifted her incredible tits from beneath, but left her deep brown nipples exposed. I could tell that she was excited by the way that her nubs pushed out from her areola like tiny studs. Below was, well, hardly anything; a matching G-string that accentuated, rather than concealed, her waxed pudenda. She was awesome, and I truly wanted to fuck my lovely little sex bomb there and then.And Megan! To coin a phrase, recently popular in the UK; Jesus, Mary and Joseph and the tiny wee donkey! She was truly fucking spectacular. She was wearing a sheer baby-doll halter-neck lace nightgown. It consisted of a flesh colored gossamer fabric looped behind her neck that dropped as two wisps to cover, but not conceal each of her C cup tits, then gathered at the waist to create a short skirt that ended barely low enough to hide her thong. I lied; it didn't hide anything, anywhere. It just made you look harder and closer to revel in the beauty beneath.The girls let go of each other and gave a three sixty turn. I was fully erect by the time they reached one eighty. Charles managed to drag his eyes away from his wife. "In forty five years Geoffrey, I have never seen her dressed in something that;” at that point words failed him. He turned back to the grinning women. "For the love of God, Geoff; please let Marie take her shopping again."Our wives turned and gave each other a long smoldering kiss. Marie smiled at us. "We're practicing for Megan's first French lesson."Megan moved to her husband and knelt in front of him. Remember, I was sat right next to him, and it turns out I was wrong. I wasn't fully erect before, but I certainly was now! I think my cock had found eleven on the dial. Megan looked at Charles and put his hand to her tit. "I didn't buy this for evenings with Geoff, darling. I bought this to wear at home for you. Marie and I thought it would be a treat modelling for both of you for being so understanding and indulging us."I felt a hand turn my face away from the vision in front of me to find Marie looking at me with a rather arousing mixture of amusement and lust. "Megan, dear," she said. "Would you think me terribly forward if I asked if I could use the bedroom we just changed in, to take my old man for a quickie?"Megan just smiled and we left them like that as Marie led me away in search of somewhere to have sex.The following morning, we were eating breakfast when I smiled at my wife and said, "I know what you're doing.""It's fairly obvious," she replied. "It's hard to eat toast covertly when you're actually watching me do it.""I meant your attempting to groom me," I continued patiently. "Your 'coming out' with Angie, kissing Ken the taxi driver, sitting on Charles's lap, showing him your tits. This is a campaign to push the envelope and test my limits.""Have I offended you?" She asked. "Because it was never my intent. I just want you to be comfortable with how our lives are now. I watched you make love to my best friend, and I reveled in it. I saw you pleasure Lucy when that was precisely what she needed, and I loved you all the more for it. I watched you looking at Megan while Charles looked at me, and I don't think any of us were jealous.""How am I doing?" I asked."Oh, darling," she replied. "That's for you to decide; not me. I'm not grooming you at all. I'm letting you see that all of these different situations haven't changed you. You haven't judged my friends, or Charles, or me for that matter. I want you to be happy, but I'm concerned that you still find this more disturbing than fun."I leaned forward and kissed her. "I'm improving, I think. I understand a little better though. None of the things I mentioned bothered me, though I feel as though they should have. Does that make sense?""Of course it does. We've been conditioned all our lives to accept that social norms should dictate how we should feel in some situations. But, logically speaking, if something isn't a threat then it makes no sense to feel threatened; it doesn't matter if your conditioning says you should. I love you to bits and I know you love me, so why should I be unhappy when you give one of my friends an orgasm?""You make a valid point," I said, finishing my tea. "And on that note I think I shall make a phone call. I have jobs to do."I grabbed my smartphone and wandered into the garden. I found Jane's number in my contact list and hit 'Call'."Hi babe. It's me; Look, Marie has lost the plot; Just you and me; let's just run off; Maybe next week?; No?; Fancy a coffee in town instead then?; Okay, it's a date; Is Ben about?; I need a hand in the garden and a big strong lad would be more use than a short ass with big boobs; About eleven would be great; Bye."I went back inside to get changed into my working gear. "Ben's coming to give me a hand," I told Marie."That's nice dear," she said absently as she tidied the kitchen. "How is Jane? Any luck?""She's fine but, no. She still won't run away with me.""Probably just as well."I was busy glaring at the dodgy fence post when I felt a presence loom over me. "Hi Ben," I said. "You're early.""I was already up when you called, so I came straight over."Ben's dad used to play in our youth team when I was coaching. He moved into the first team when he was twenty one and was one of our star players. He died suddenly about ten years ago, when Ben was only nine. Ben inherited his dad's massive build but is the quietest lad I've ever met. I showed him what needed doing and we got stuck in. Marie brought us drinks and sandwiches for lunch and told him he was staying for a cooked meal when we'd finished.With his help, the post was replaced in less than an hour and we moved onto the trees. We were done by midafternoon so I gave him a beer and tried to engage him in conversation."How's your mum?""Fine.""How are you enjoying working in the warehouse?"

Epizoda snimljena na inicijativu Centra za promociju civilnog društva, nevladine organizacije iz Sarajeva, koji je prepoznao značaj ovih problema, a kome se ovom prilikom zahvaljujemo na predloženoj temi. U epizodi ćete saznati više o tome kako biti autentičan na poslu i kako prepoznati trenutak za promenu; kako se nositi sa osećam bespomoćnosti tokom radnog veka; šta kada se poslovi menjaju "kao čarape" i kako to utiče na mentalno zdravlje; koliko je iskrenost isplativa, a čućete i o manipulacijama sa kojima se susrećemo (ali i kakve su kao oružje). Takođe, biće obrađeno i kako priznati sebi da je vreme za promenu. U ovoj epizodi otvaramo pitanja koja se tiču svakoga ko radi i živi u vremenu stalnih promena. Kako biti autentičan na poslu i prepoznati trenutak kada je vreme za novi korak? Kako se nositi sa osećajem bespomoćnosti tokom radnog veka? Šta znači kada se poslovi menjaju često i kako ta nestalnost utiče na mentalno zdravlje? Govorimo i o iskrenosti - koliko je isplativa i gde se susreće sa manipulacijom - kao i o hrabrosti da sebi priznamo kada je vreme za promenu. Promene su ponekad neminovne, a ponekad i poželjne. Promena je neizbežna i jedina konstanta. Upravo zato ova epizoda je deo šire priče koja podseća da rast i napredak zahtevaju otvorenost i spremnost da idemo dalje, bez obzira na prepreke. Obraćamo se svima koji žele da napreduju, da zadrže ravnotežu između ličnog i poslovnog života, da uprkos izazovima zadrže pozitivan stav i pronađu sopstveni put - onaj koji im najviše odgovara. Baš kao što voda uvek nađe svoj put, tako i mi - jer promena je u našoj prirodi.

Most firms live off referrals. David Craig flipped that script — now 80% of his cases come directly from consumers. That pivot made him Indiana's go-to trucking lawyer and a national force in PI. In this episode, David shares the 3 Pillars of Proof that helped him dominate one of the toughest niches in law: Proof of Expertise: Books and a podcast that educate clients while closing cases. Proof in Performance: A culture where investigators, social workers, and rapid-response teams matter as much as trial lawyers. Proof of Leadership: Financial transparency that keeps attorneys loyal for decades. If you want to stand out in trucking — or any PI niche — this episode is your roadmap. You'll learn: Why consumer-focused content builds trust faster than referrals. How non-revenue hires like social workers can change case outcomes. The leadership framework that keeps your team invested long-term. If you like what you hear, hit subscribe. We do this every week. VIP PIMCON Tickets:  Pimcon.org Get Social!

Episode 489 / Alexis RockmanBorn in 1962 in New York, Alexis Rockman has depicted a darkly surreal vision of the collision between civilization and nature – often apocalyptic scenarios on a monumental scale – for over three decades. Notable solo museum exhibitions include “Alexis Rockman: Manifest Destiny” at the Brooklyn Museum (2004), which traveled to several institutions including the Wexner Center for the Arts (2004) and the Rhode Island School of Design (2005). In 2010, the Smithsonian American Art Museum organized “Alexis Rockman: A Fable for Tomorrow,” a major touring survey of his paintings and works on paper. Concurrent with Rockman's 2013 exhibition at Sperone Westwater, the Drawing Center mounted “Drawings from Life of Pi,” featuring the artist's collaboration with Ang Lee on the award-winning film Life of Pi. His series of 76 New Mexico Field Drawings was included in “Future Shock” at SITE Santa Fe (2017-18). “Alexis Rockman and Mark Dion: A Journey to Nature's Underworld” was presented at the Bruce Museum, Greenwich, CT (2023) and traveled to the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art (2024). It will be on view at the Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, NY until 5 January 2025, and at the Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State from August 30th through December 7th. His work is represented in many museum collections, including the Baltimore Museum of Art; Brooklyn Museum; Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art; Grand Rapids Art Museum; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; New Orleans Museum of Art; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Smithsonian American Art Museum; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; and Whitney Museum of American Art. Rockman's first solo exhibition with Sperone Westwater, “Evolution,” was presented in 1992. He has had subsequent solo exhibitions at the gallery in 2013, 2018, 2020-21 and 2023. He lives and works in Warren, Connecticut.

Content that creates authority. Social ads that set appointments. Referrals that actually call back. Kara Prior (President, James Publishing / James Amplifier) shares how PI firms are converting attention into signed clients—using niche books, AI-cloned video, and a referral system that delivers. Kara explains: Why niche authority books beat generic guides for proof, follow-up, and lead capture. The math behind Social Leads: run tested ads, pre-qualify responders, and feed your intake team hundreds of phone appointments with vetted prospects—for a flat monthly fee. The overlooked referral engine cadence that turns cold contacts into booked partner meetings (plan ~3 hours of calling per appointment). Why most ROI dies in intake—and how mystery shopping shows you where you're losing cases. VIP PIMCON Tickets:  Pimcon.org Open Fortune Exclusive Discount: openfortune.com/pim  Get Social!

This week on A Little Bit Culty, we're stepping into the crossover world of cults and true crime with Derrick Levasseur—former undercover detective, private investigator, and host of Crime Weekly and Detective Perspective. You may also know him from Big Brother or America's Most Wanted: Missing Persons, where he and Sarah recently worked together on a harrowing case.That case? The mysterious disappearance of six people tied to the University of Cosmic Intelligence (UCI)—a fringe social-media-fueled cult led by self-proclaimed prophet Rashad Jamal. Among the missing: Naaman Williams (28), Gerielle German (26) and her 3-year-old son Ashton Mitchell, Mikayla Thompson (23), Ma'Kayla Wickerson (25), and her 3-year-old daughter Malaiyah Wickerson.From ritualistic chanting and “divine downloads” to bathroom-mirror graffiti scrawled with “I am that I am”, the UCI story reads like a mash-up of sci-fi fantasy and sovereign citizen ideology. But underneath the esoteric claims are real lives at risk—and children who need to be found. Derrick unpacks the law-enforcement challenges of cult cases, why coercive control is so hard to prosecute, and how everyday people can spot the warning signs.We also dive into Derrick's fascinating career—from undercover ops to winning Big Brother, launching Criminal Coffee (a true crime-funded cold case project), and his take on why “every cult has a hook.”⚠️ If you have information about the missing members of UCI, contact your local law enforcement.Follow Derrick for more: IG @DerrickLevasseur • X @DerrickL • officialderrick.com.

After an indie one-two punch of Pi and Requiem for a Dream, Darren Aronofsky was riding high as one of the major emerging directors at the turn of the century.
