Podcasts about powering up

Today on PowerPoint, we kick off the new series “The Power of Spiritual Engagement.” In his message “Powering Up,” Pastor Jack Graham tells us that many Christians do not know the power of God in their lives and therefore, they are not giving a powerful signal of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It's time to power up! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/395/29

Six Flags/Cedar Fair's first post-merger casualty is Six Flags America, erasing 70 full-time and 700 seasonal jobs and $3.5 million in local tax revenue—freeing capital for “marquee” investments elsewhere. At the same time, Marriott's Gaylord resorts are turning their glass atriums into mini-comic-cons with a DC-branded summer slate, headlined by a 17,500-sq-ft lantern trail of 24-ft heroes, to lure families who might skip a theme-park trip. Philip and Scott ask whether strategic portfolio pruning and shoulder-season IP pivots are the new survival play as rising rates have already killed Sacramento's planned $300 million Elk Grove zoo.

Have you ever passed a wind turbine on a blustery day and wondered why it's not turning?It's not broken. It's stopped because the national grid, the network which transports electric power around the country, can't take any more.And we're not just missing out on all that green energy, the grid has to pay wind turbine owners to turn them off, costing the taxpayer £1bn pounds a year.So with ever increasing demand, how will it keep up?Science Correspondent Martin Stew tells Lucy Watson what you need to know.

With the launch of President Trump's trade war this week, few countries are more at risk than China. Faced with a sudden and massive expansion of tariffs as well as changes to the de minimis parcel rule, the export-led development model that has led China to great wealth is now under serious threat. What should we learn from the past of U.S.-China relations in order to understand their future?Joining host Danny Crichton and Riskgaming director of programming Laurence Pevsner are Neil Thomas and Kate Logan of the Asia Society Policy Institute. Neil is a fellow and researches the elite politics and political economy of China, while Kate is director of the China Climate Hub and Climate Diplomacy. They have written extensively on China's industrial strategy and foreign relations, and even more notably, they both participated in the launch of our Chinese electric vehicle Riskgaming scenario Powering Up in Washington DC back in December.We talk about their experiences playing the game, and why processing information overload is a crucial skill, particularly in competitive markets like cleantech. Then we talk about the lessons of China's manufacturing rise, why America ignored its industrial strategy for so long, and how U.S. policymakers and business leaders can approach the future of the most critical trade relationship in the world.

Cruel, petty and occasionally magnanimous, fates rule our lives, determining everything from our careers and romances to our financial success. Despite a burgeoning academic literature studying luck and the occasional theoretical probabilist complaining about Bayesian statistics, we haven't brought the chance of chaotic complex systems into the classroom, and that's particularly true in political science and international relations. That should change, and play-based learning offer new forms of education for future generations.Joining host Danny Crichton and Riskgaming director of programming Laurence Pevsner is Nicholas Rush Smith, director of the Master's Program in International Affairs at The City College of New York and its Graduate Center. His students graduate into plum assignments across international organizations like the United Nations, and he has been increasingly utilizing simulations and experiential learning to transform how future international civil servants learn their craft.We talk about Nick's recent experience playing “Powering Up,” our Riskgaming scenario focused on China's electric vehicle market. Then we talk about the power of play, how dopamine affects the learning cycle, why losing is the best education for winning, David Graeber's ideas around the balance between rules and play, and finally, how play-based learning can teach principles used in even the most bureaucratic institutions like the United Nations and the U.S. Army.Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠Christopher Gates⁠⁠⁠⁠Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠George Ko

There's a growing movement to apply the best practices of technology to the U.S. government. Whether it's Elon Musk and DOGE (the so-called Department of Government Efficiency) or the myriad of chief technology and data officers across all levels of government, the hope is that technology can enhance productivity and minimize errors, offering a better experience with government for all Americans. Few people have the wealth of experience on this front than our guest today, Christine Keung. She has a tech industry background from Dropbox and her current role as a partner at J2 Ventures, but also a lengthy tenure across party lines, from working in China with Ambassador Max Baucus, to becoming the Chief Data Officer of San Jose, California, to helping launch the Paycheck Protection Program at the Small Business Administration. Alongside host Danny Crichton and Riskgaming Director of Programming Laurence Pevsner, we talk about her recent experience playing Powering Up — our Riskgaming scenario on the Chinese electric vehicle market — her experiences in government and the challenges of modernization, and then finally, we turn to DeepSeek and the U.S.-China competition that has splashed across the front pages the past week.

We are really excited to announce the publication of our third and latest Riskgaming scenario, "Powering Up: China's Global Quest for Electric Vehicle Dominance.” Designed by Ian Curtiss over the course of the last year, we started beta trials of the game a few months ago with dozens of playtesters and just hosted launch runthroughs across the United States in NYC, DC and SF as well as a worldwide tour in London, Romania and Tokyo. It was great fun bringing together dozens of policymakers, tech executives and journalists over the past few weeks. While we previewed Powering Up on an episode back in October, now that we have played the game with so many diverse groups, we wanted to talk about some of the lessons learned from its design, the patterns of strategies we've witnessed among players and the wider implications of those strategies for how the world will change in the years ahead. So we gathered together host Danny Crichton, Riskgaming director of programming Laurence Pevsner and Ian himself live in our Menlo Park studio to talk about all the results. Come tune in, and then sign up so you can play the next scenario we release in 2025.

Interview with Bruce Lane, Executive Director of GTI Energy Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gti-energy-asxgtr-targets-to-expand-multi-million-resource-in-lo-herma-isr-uranium-project-5042Recording date: 18th November 2024GTI Energy (GTI) is an emerging uranium developer focused on advancing the Lo Herma in-situ recovery (ISR) project in Wyoming's Powder River Basin.  Lo Herma currently hosts an Inferred resource of 5.71M lbs U3O8 at a production-grade of over 600 ppm.GTI expects to update the resource to 7-8M lbs by year-end, matching the size of nearby economic projects like Ur-Energy's Shirley Basin and enCore's Gas Hills. Recent studies on these peers demonstrated robust economics at $80/lb uranium prices, with costs around $40/lb.CEO Bruce Lane highlighted Lo Herma's potential: "Based on that, around that 7 or 8 million pounds mark with an exploration upside potential is a very attractive investment proposition." GTI's studies assume conservative long-term prices of $80-82/lb.Following the resource update, GTI plans to swiftly complete a scoping study in H1 2025. Lane noted, "There's a point there of inflection, a catalyst if you like, around an understanding of what the value of the project is."While GTI could advance Lo Herma independently, strategic alternatives like a project sale or partnership are being considered to maximize value and minimize dilution. Significant exploration upside remains at Lo Herma, with Lane commenting that additional drilling could "delineate further resource fairly confidently." GTI also holds prospective uranium projects in Utah and Wyoming, providing a pipeline for future growth.The outlook for US uranium is robust, driven by growing nuclear power demand and supply deficits. The US currently imports over 90% of its uranium needs, highlighting the strategic importance of domestic production.Government support is increasing, with funding for the nuclear sector in the recent infrastructure bill and efforts to establish a national uranium reserve. GTI is well-positioned to benefit from this favorable macro backdrop.With a resource update and scoping study expected in the near-term, GTI offers investors exposure to an economic ISR project in a Tier-1 jurisdiction. Exploration upside, a portfolio of growth assets, and strategic optionality further enhance the investment case. As the US uranium sector gains momentum, GTI is a compelling opportunity for risk-tolerant investors to participate in the nuclear fuel cycle.View GTI Energy's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/gti-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Jerry spoke to Fine Gael councillor Tommy Griffin who is critical about the rules governing the power up grant – which is a support of €4,000 available to businesses in the hospitality and retail rectors. He says it’s too restrictive and more businesses should be allowed to qualify for it. He also commented on Kerry County Council spending less than 5% of the available funding to improve Listry Bridge since 2019.

Show Notes Hi everyone, Just a quick thing before we start: this episode was recorded in the middle of summer, which meant that Erik needed to have his office window open. It's possible to hear the outside traffic throughout, but rest assured that our editing team have done what they can to reduce it's presence. It's not that noticable and shouldn't affect your enjoyment of the show, but I wanted to give you a heads-up. Also, do remember that there's a full transcription available at the show's website; so check that out, too. Anyway, let's get to it. "So, I think my mantra for creating things like these tools is, "should be easy to get started and there should be a like an easy happy path but then if you want to deep dive and do a lot of options or even a t4 templates you can also do that," but there should be a simple happy path with good error reporting if something fails."— Erik Jensen Welcome friends to The Modern .NET Show; the premier .NET podcast, focussing entirely on the knowledge, tools, and frameworks that all .NET developers should have in their toolbox. We are the go-to podcast for .NET developers worldwide, and I am your host: Jamie "GaProgMan" Taylor. In this episode, Erik Jensen joined us to talk about EF Core Power Tools, and how you can use his project to increase your productivity with EF Core-based databases, regardless of the database technology used; if it's supported by EF Core, then the Power Tools extension supports it to. "The one that's definitely used the most is what in a tool is referred to as reverse engineering. Where you point to an existing database, which can be some of the database types I mentioned previously. Like SQL Server, as a SQL database, Postgres, Oracle, MySQL, and Firebird. And then the tool asks you for a number of options, like you can specify what namespaces you're using, and where the files are laid in your project, and many, many other options. And then when you press OK at that point, as you said, Jamie, the tool generates a DB context and some classes that represent your tables with navigations between the tables based on discovery of foreign key relationships."— Erik Jensen We also briefly touched on the MSBuild.Sdk.SqlProj project and its goal of giving cross-platform .NET developers a way to both describe and build their ideal database schema in code. We also covered Erik's personal process for dealing with feature requests, and how developers can ensure that that are providing valueable feedback to open-source projects; a subject that will come up again soon with future guest Scott Harden. Anyway, without further ado, let's sit back, open up a terminal, type in `dotnet new podcast` and we'll dive into the core of Modern .NET.

The automobile industry is one of the most pivotal in the world, both due to its scale and its nexus at the heart of the manufacturing systems in countries such as the United States, Germany, Japan, Korea and China. There's a massive transformation of the industry underway as consumers transition from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles, and China is increasingly leading the way with innovative and affordable cars from the likes of BYD and others. How will the future of the industry change, and how do the political dynamics of China's leadership affect which countries will win — and which will falter? Our upcoming Riskgaming scenario, “Powering Up: China's Global Quest for Electric Vehicle Dominance,” simulates this complex business environment by fusing the transition from ICEs to EVs with the opaque vagaries of China's national security and industrial policies. It's designed by Ian Curtiss, who lived and worked in China for many years before decamping to Arizona and continuing to build a series of tabletop games covering everything from the geopolitics of the modern world to the politics of medieval Europe on the Iberian Peninsula. Ian and host Danny Crichton talk about “Powering Up” and its design, how the tradeoffs in the game can inform decision-making in the real world, and why people are so engaged with the Riskgaming model of gameplay.

Danny Crichton is a man of many talents. He's got a background in computer science, has worked in the worlds of foreign policy, was a managing editor at Techcrunch, and now serves as Head of Editorial at Lux Capital. As Lux's de-facto games master, Danny also devises their Riskgames: strategic simulations that immerse players in complex scenarios reflecting real-world challenges and dynamics. These games – whose players include senators, major generals, congressmen and, think-tank CEOs – include scenarios like ‘Hamptons at the Cross-Roads' (that deals with climate change and maritime security) and ‘Powering Up' (that deals with China's global EV dominance). Danny and I discuss the origins of Riskgaming and the lessons he's learned in high-stakes games with tech founders and government officials. Plus, we riff on our shared Minnesotan roots, and discuss ways to combat the uncertain fog of war in our careers. I hope you enjoy this insightful conversation as much as I did.

It's on rooftops. It's on top of old landfills. It's floating on lakes. The Dutch are all in on solar energy. CBC's international climate correspondent Susan Ormiston takes us there to find out what's behind the country's strong solar adoption.

Interview with Adam Kiley, CEO of Frontier Energy Ltd.Recording date: 27th June 2024Frontier Energy (ASX:FHE) is positioning itself as a key player in Western Australia's renewable energy transition with its Waroona Renewable Energy Project. Located 100km south of Perth, the project's first stage comprises 120MW of solar power coupled with an 80MW/4-hour battery energy storage system, strategically positioned to capitalize on the state's shifting energy landscape.The project benefits from several unique advantages:Reserve Capacity Mechanism: This Western Australia-specific policy provides stable revenue streams, with Frontier expecting approximately $27 million annually from these payments alone, covering operating costs and debt service.Grid Connection: Frontier has secured grid connections for up to 1GW of capacity, a crucial advantage in a market where grid access is increasingly scarce.Market Dynamics: Western Australia has seen an 80% increase in energy prices over the past two years, coupled with plans to retire coal-fired power stations by 2029. Energy demand is forecast to increase by 55% over the next decade.CEO Adam Kiley emphasizes the project's timing: "We're hitting the market at the absolute perfect ideal time. That's the key difference that we have, and looking to expand the project really quickly thereafter as well."Financially, Frontier is in advanced discussions for a debt facility of around $225 million, with terms typical for renewable projects: 20-year tenure, 2-3% interest rates for the first five years, potentially dropping to around 2% thereafter. The company is also running a strategic process to sell down part of the project, aiming to minimize the equity gap and bring in a long-term partner for future expansion.Based on the Definitive Feasibility Study, the project is expected to generate approximately $74 million in annual revenue in its first year of operations, with operating costs estimated at only $6 million per year, offering attractive margins.Frontier's growth potential is significant, with grid connections for up to 1GW allowing for substantial future expansion. The company's approach also allows for adaptation to changing market conditions, potentially incorporating larger batteries or different energy mixes in future stages.Frontier Energy is progressing towards financial close and Final Investment Decision (FID) in the coming months, offering investors the opportunity to participate in a project that could play a significant role in Western Australia's energy future. With its scalable approach and potential for future expansion, Frontier Energy presents both near-term catalysts and long-term growth potential in the rapidly evolving renewable energy sector.As the company moves from development to construction and operation, investors should monitor progress towards FID (expected in Q3 2024), watch for announcements on future expansion plans, and keep an eye on Western Australian energy market dynamics, particularly any changes to the Reserve Capacity Mechanism.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Welcome to a new series called “Quick Study." Today we're diving into how a plant-based diet can significantly boost your longevity and vitality. If you are an avid listener, you know this is one of my favorite topics. So, I was excited to reference conversations with two experts Brenda Davis and Dr. Michael Greger, as we unpack the benefits of filling your plate with plant-based proteins. You'll learn how easy meeting your daily protein needs can be with a whole food plant-based diet—your ticket to sustainable weight loss and warding off diseases. Get ready to be inspired and learn practical tips for powering your life with plants! KEY TAKEAWAYS: Replacing just 3% of calories from animal protein with plant protein can lower mortality risk by 10% according to NIH research. Meeting recommended daily protein intake through a variety of whole plant foods like legumes, nuts and seeds is important for health and well-being. Small shifts towards plant-based protein sources can make a big impact on health outcomes over time. A whole food plant-based diet is the most effective approach for sustainable weight loss and disease prevention. When and how we eat can impact more than calories alone due to absorption, appetite and metabolism. Want to learn more?

Most of us would be able to name our energy provider and probably a list of reasons we're annoyed with them, but when it comes to the hows and whos that get it to, say, our plug sockets, details can be a bit sketchy.  Mick's been on the Zoom with Yasmin Ali, a chemical engineer dedicated to developing renewable energy projects and author of the book Power Up: An Engineer's Adventures into Sustainable Energy. All credit to Yasmin, who has taken a potentially dry and technical subject and made it a fascinating read. Although – spoiler alert – there are no easy answers to the looming energy crisis. And so, in this week's Chops, Mick and Yasmin are talking about the complicated answers, about how Yasmin's grounding in fossil fuels led her to hydrogen, her passion for (and optimism about) clean energy, why being born in Iraq made her love Norway, and why she's not watching Oppenheimer.
