Human trafficking strips away a person's freedom, forcing them into labor or commercial sex against their will. When a child is exploited for commercial sex, it is always human trafficking, no matter the circumstances. The wounds left behind—both seen and unseen—can haunt survivors for a lifetime, stealing their innocence, their dreams, and their basic human rights. The United Nations' International Labor Organization estimates that traffickers prey on 27.6 million people around the globe each year. This staggering number calls for bold, united action to shield vulnerable communities and support children who have suffered. Only by working together across borders and within our own nations can we hope to turn the tide. Today's guest is a true trailblazer in the fight against human trafficking. She leads an organization that has boldly stepped up to confront this challenge head-on. Meet Ms.Esther Daniel, who leads a needs-based organization that, in their own words, aims to Prevent, Disrupt, and Restore. Empower yourself with knowledge and spread the word.

In this edition of Perspective, the acting Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court tells FRANCE 24 that the court is needed now more than ever to ensure there is no gap for impunity. Mame Mandiaye Niang says the court's job is to step in if domestic justice systems fail. The Senegalese judge is at the centre of a storm amid sanctions put on the court by the US after its issuing of arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant over Israel's actions in Gaza. He explained how the sanctions affect his daily life but says it won't stop the court doing its job.

Ralph Bloemers has spent over two decades working in and around wildfire science and technology. He’s used documentary filmmaking as a vehicle for probing and documenting wildfires across the American West and contends that while wildfires are inevitable in Oregon, catastrophic community loss doesn’t have to be.   He makes a case for wildfire readiness techniques that homeowners can employ to reduce the risk of community conflagration or urban wildfire, like Spokane communities endured earlier this summer. We’ll speak to Bloemers about his recommendations for how homeowners can assist firefighters through wildfire readiness techniques and how his work documenting wildfires has informed his perspective on wildfire management.  

October is World Pet Obesity Month! We need your help in collecting pet obesity prevalence data - and you can earn $50 for your team! Visit https://www.petobesityprevention.org/2026-veterinary-clinic-pet-obesity-prevalence-survey Speaking of obesity in dogs and cats: spaying and neutering may be routine surgical procedures for most veterinary professionals and pet parents, but the nutritional shift afterward is anything but. This week, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, talk with Dr. Yuki Okada, a board-certified veterinary nutritionist and Virbac's Veterinary Medicine and Nutrition Manager, about one of veterinary medicine's most useful obesity-prevention windows: What should we feed growing dogs and cats in the period surrounding spay or neuter? Dr. Yuki explains why appetite may rise while energy needs and activity fall, and why the feeding conversation should begin before surgery rather than get buried in discharge instructions. The team covers moving away from free-feeding, accounting for treat and supplement calories, measuring food with a gram scale, and giving families clear directions everyone can follow. They also unpack the clinical thinking behind Virbac VETERINARY HPM® Spayed & Neutered diets, including higher protein of animal origin to help support lean muscle, coupled with fiber for satiety. The discussion then moves beyond body weight to body condition score, muscle condition score, mobility, activity, and subtle “micro-pauses” that may signal discomfort. The takeaway: preventing unhealthy weight gain requires an early, practical plan that the entire veterinary team can reinforce.

A diagnosis of cirrhosis can feel overwhelming, but understanding what's happening in your liver—and knowing what you can do to protect your health—can make a meaningful difference. In this episode, Gastro Girl host Jacqueline Gaulin is joined by Jennifer Lai, MD, MBA, a hepatologist at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), for a practical conversation about living with cirrhosis and reducing the risk of complications.   Dr. Lai explains what cirrhosis is, why ongoing monitoring and regular medical care are so important, and how nutrition, physical activity, and maintaining muscle can play an important role in overall health. She also discusses complications people with cirrhosis should be aware of, warning signs that may require medical attention, and how patients can work with their healthcare team to stay as healthy as possible.   In this episode, you'll learn: • What cirrhosis is and what it means for your liver • Why regular monitoring and follow-up care matter • How nutrition and muscle health can affect people with cirrhosis • Common complications of cirrhosis and what to watch for • Practical steps you can take to protect your health • How to stay actively involved in your care   Whether you've recently been diagnosed with cirrhosis, have been living with chronic liver disease for some time, or are caring for someone with cirrhosis, this conversation will help you better understand the condition, know what to expect, and feel more prepared to talk with your healthcare team.   This patient education episode was produced by Gastro Girl in collaboration with the American College of Gastroenterology Patient Care Committee.  

Most retirement calculators assume your money needs to last until age 95. But if you're 55 years old today, average life expectancy is actually 79 for men and 82 for women. This single hidden assumption could mean the difference between retiring five years earlier or leaving millions unspent. Key Topics Discussed 00:00:00 - Introduction: The Hidden Assumption Brad introduces the concept that retirement calculators make an invisible assumption about longevity—typically planning to age 90-95—and explains why this matters for financial independence planning. 00:05:30 - Why Planning to 95 Is the Default Dr Bobby Dubois and Aubrey Williams explain why financial advisors default to age 95, the fear of running out of money, and how this ignores the risk of over-saving and under-living. 00:12:00 - Layers of Financial Conservatism Brad discusses multiple layers of conservative assumptions in retirement planning: lower returns, lower withdrawal rates, zero Social Security, and now longevity assumptions. 00:15:45 - Real Life Expectancy Numbers Dr Bobby provides actuarial data showing average life expectancy from birth (71-76) versus age 55 (79-82), and the probability of reaching age 90. 00:21:00 - The Financial Impact of Longevity Aubrey presents modeling showing how nest egg requirements change dramatically based on longevity assumptions—from $714K at age 79 to 41% higher at age 90. 00:28:30 - Dynamic Planning and Annual Updates Discussion of how mortality-adjusted planning changes over time and why annual plan updates are essential rather than lock-and-load strategies. 00:35:00 - Tools to Estimate Your Longevity Dr Bobby outlines practical methods: actuarial calculators, family history, cardiovascular risk calculators like the AHA Prevent tool, and genetic testing including APOE for dementia risk. 00:45:00 - Biological Age vs Chronological Age Discussion of biological clock testing and why these tests aren't ready for prime time, despite heavy marketing in the longevity space. 00:50:00 - Extending Your Healthspan Dr Bobby covers evidence-based interventions to reduce risk of heart disease and dementia: exercise, sleep, blood pressure control, weight management, and avoiding smoking. 00:58:00 - Wrap-up and Resources Final thoughts on updating assumptions, where to find Dr Bobby and Aubrey, and invitation for community feedback on future analysis scenarios. Notable Quotes Brad Barrett: "Every financial calculator has to make assumptions... but there's one assumption that's almost never discussed, even though it might be the single biggest one in the entire model. How long does your money need to last?" Dr Bobby Dubois: "The nest egg you need depends a lot on how long you're going to live. Imagine you're sixty-five and you're only going to live five years. Well, you don't need a whole lot of money. Imagine you're sixty-five and you're going to live to be one hundred five." Aubrey Williams: "Planning to ninety-five does answer one question, but by far, it's not the only question we should be looking at... it completely ignores the opposite risk that we live a shorter life and either we've saved too much, worked too long or spent too little." Dr Bobby Dubois: "If you are 60, what's the likelihood you'll live to be 90? For men, it's about a third, meaning two thirds won't. Women, it's about half might live to be 90." Aubrey Williams: "If hitting FI at 65, you live to age 79, you need $714,000. But if you live to 90, 11 years longer, then that nest egg needs to be 41% higher." Key Takeaways Calculate your own life expectancy using actuarial tools from the Society of Actuaries rather than accepting calculator defaults of 90-95 Research your family history of longevity—genetics account for roughly 50% of how long you'll live, especially for those reaching 100+ Use the American Heart Association's Prevent calculator to assess your 10-year and 30-year cardiovascular disease risk Consider genetic testing for APOE status to understand dementia ris…

The idea sounds caring and practical: if my teen is going to drink anyway, I'd rather it happen at home where I can supervise it. I'm Dr. Casey Grover, and after years in emergency medicine and now addiction medicine, I keep hearing this “safe at home” approach framed as a way to teach responsible drinking and prevent future addiction. The problem is that good intentions are not the same as good outcomes, and the research on parental permission is far less comforting than most families expect. We walk through six studies that directly test whether allowing underage alcohol use (and the same logic often applied to cannabis) provides a protective effect. Across surveys and longitudinal data, the pattern points in one direction: permissive attitudes and permission to drink at home are associated with more frequent use, higher quantities, and more alcohol-related harms later on. We dig into findings on teens drinking without parental knowledge, the risk of alcohol being taken from the home, and how early “sips” or “tastes” can predict heavier drinking in late adolescence even after controlling for other factors. We also get practical about what helps. The evidence supports clear boundaries, consistent discipline around drinking, and direct communication about risks. One of the most sobering insights is how often parents underestimate how much teens drink, especially when parents believe that controlled access at meals is protective. If you're a parent, caregiver, clinician, or student, you'll leave with concrete takeaways you can use in real conversations at home and in the clinic. If this was useful, subscribe, share it with someone raising a teen, and please leave a review so more people can find Addiction Medicine Made Easy. Huge thanks to Central Coast Overdose Prevention for supporting the show, and remember: treating addiction saves lives.To contact Dr. Grover: ammadeeasy@fastmail.com

A red flag next to your LDL number can feel alarming, but LDL is only one part of a much larger cardiovascular risk picture. In this episode of Metabolic Mind, cardiologist and lipidologist Dr. Bret Scher explains how to read a cholesterol panel with more context and less fear.Dr. Scher walks through LDL, triglycerides, HDL, non-HDL cholesterol, ApoB, Lp(a), and the triglyceride-to-HDL ratio. He also explains how the 2026 cholesterol guidelines use the PREVENT risk calculator, where LDL targets currently stand, and why individual risk factors, metabolic health, family history, and direct measures of vascular disease can change the conversation.He covers:Why LDL should not be read in isolationWhat triglycerides and HDL can reveal about metabolic healthWhy Dr. Scher pays attention to the triglyceride-to-HDL ratioWhen LDL above 190 may raise concern for familial hypercholesterolemiaWhy Lp(a) should be measured at least once in adulthoodHow ApoB differs from LDL cholesterolWhat the PREVENT risk calculator includesHow coronary calcium scans and CT angiograms act as tools that may help refine riskWhy LDL targets vary by risk categoryWhy metabolic health, insulin resistance, and individual preferences and priorities should be part of the discussionA cholesterol panel can start a thoughtful conversation with your healthcare provider. One number rarely tells the whole story, and better decisions come from looking at the full cardiometabolic picture.

These safeguards allow businesses to innovate with AI while reducing risk and maintaining trust. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, host Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Manoj Saxena, Founder and CEO of Trustwise, to discuss controlling the risks of enterprise AI. They explore silent AI breaches, governing autonomous agents, and building responsible AI systems. Manoj also shares emerging AI revenue models and lessons from auto racing.

This is the 4p All Local for Tuesday, September 8, 2026

Eight Tuesdays out, Chuck Todd and Chris Cillizza open on the first midterm convention in modern American history — two nights at Dallas's American Airlines Center with 109 speakers, Trump appearing both nights, and House members getting billed $25,000 to attend. The guys are skeptical of nearly all of it: the event lands on NFL kickoff night, it butts up against the 25th anniversary of September 11th, and Politico found 45 of 70 Republican candidates and members skipping it. Their sharper point is that the whole thing is a microcosm of the party's bind — you cannot win without the MAGA base, and you cannot win with only the MAGA base — which is why swing-state nominees like Jon Husted and Mike Rogers will show up and try very hard to deliver a forgettable speech. Chuck argues nationalizing the election isn't crazy on its own terms, since the other side is going to run against Trump anyway, but doubts Trump can hit any register besides red meat, and doubts even more that he can find a second gear for the September 11th anniversary the following day. From there they dig into Texas, where MAGA Inc's first $10 million buy is running a half-negative, half-positive ad about taxes — a signal, Chuck says, that they know the target is suburban Romney Republicans, not the base. He walks through Greg Abbott's steadily declining margins, the four-to-eight-point scandal penalty that history says attaches to a candidate like Paxton, and lands somewhere that surprises Chris: he now likes Talarico's odds better than Sherrod Brown's in Ohio. They check the prediction markets, unpack the Missouri Supreme Court ruling that blocked the Republican-drawn map and effectively hands Emanuel Cleaver his seat back, and take apart Trump's request that the Supreme Court impose a national check on mail voting — a policy every Republican strategist will tell you privately hurts their own side. Then a long, unsparing conversation about the Wall Street Journal's reporting on John Fetterman and what it means for control of the Senate on January 3rd, a real case for a third Senate conference built around Murkowski and a possible independent, and a closing riff on Nick Saban, Pat McAfee, and why the Protect College Sports Act is doomed without collective bargaining.

Is the billable hour finally dead? While many in the accounting profession expected the competition for talent to end timesheets, the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is delivering the final blow. If your firm is still pricing based on time and effort rather than value and outcomes, you are risking your margins in an AI-driven world. In this exclusive fireside chat from the Growing Your Firm Summit, host David Cristello sits down with Ron Baker, founder of the VeraSage Institute, author of 8 best-selling books, and co-host of The Soul of Enterprise podcast. Ron breaks down the core psychology of value pricing, why firms must transition from selling "services" to guiding "transformations," and how subscription models create predictable recurring revenue. In this episode, we explore: The Death of the Billable Hour: Why AI makes pricing by the hour obsolete—and what firms must do to adapt. Value is a Feeling, Not a Number: The psychological factors behind pricing and why nobody should price themselves. Fixed Pricing vs. Value Pricing: Understanding the key differences and why fixed pricing based on hourly estimates is just the starting point. The Concierge Firm Model: How to eliminate "scope creep" by staying in your lane and offering white-glove, subscription-based packages. AI Beyond Efficiency: Why treating AI like a co-collaborator to create value—rather than just a tool to save time—is the key to future firm growth. Ditching Timesheets: What to measure instead of hours to track performance, accountability, and project success. Bonus Segment: Jetpack Workflow Capacity Management Demo Starting at 33:40, David Cristello gives an exclusive first look at Jetpack Workflow Version 2's Capacity Management View. Learn how operations managers and firm managers responsible for workflow can: Gain full visibility into future team workloads across weeks and years.

Daphna brings the DROP-ROP trial from JAMA Pediatrics, a double-masked randomized study across fourteen Swedish centers asking whether topical dexamethasone can stop pre-threshold ROP from progressing to type one disease. One hundred infants, born under 30 weeks, dosed for up to twelve weeks, some still getting drops at home. Twenty percent needed laser or anti-VEGF in the dexamethasone arm versus thirty-eight percent on placebo, a relative risk reduction that did not reach significance.

A passion for supporting families during birth is the foundation for a career as a doula. But once that foundation has been laid, it takes business skills, boundaries, and collaboration to be sustainable.   In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Dekker talks with Katie Nyberg, founder of The Iowa Baby Ladies, about her journey from fifth-grade teacher to doula, trainer, and owner of one of Iowa's largest doula agencies. Katie shares the early lessons she learned about setting fees, communicating with clients, and navigating the unpredictable realities of on-call work. Katie also opens up about the exhaustion that once made her consider leaving birth work altogether, and the changes that helped her build a more sustainable career. She discusses how recognizing the root causes of burnout, diversifying income, creating intentional seasons of work and rest, and building supportive relationships with other doulas keep her going.   (02:05) Katie's journey from teacher to birth doula (04:55) Early lessons in business, fees, and communication (07:21) Setting healthy boundaries with clients (11:40) Navigating childcare and the on-call doula lifestyle (14:02) Preparing for long births and using backup support (19:53) Recognizing and addressing doula burnout (25:45) Saying no and making space for rest (27:05) Growing The Iowa Baby Ladies (33:41) Advice for new doulas getting started (37:02) Overcoming imposter syndrome through education and experience (43:13) Advice for building a lasting doula career Resources Learn more about the EBB Instructor Program: https://evidencebasedbirth.com/become-an-evidence-based-birth-instructor/ Find an EBB Instructor: https://evidencebasedbirth.com/find-an-instructor-parents/ Follow Katie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theiowababylady/ Learn more about the Iowa Baby Ladies: https://theiowababylady.com/ Evidence on: Doulas EBB 364 – How to Prevent and Heal Birthworker Burnout with Doctoral Student Ihotu Ali and Grace Flannery, Certified Professional Midwife

#366: You ran npm install this morning. Maybe you ran it a dozen times. Every one of those pulled down a dependency tree you have never read, from a registry that spent years in maintenance mode, and then executed whatever preinstall and postinstall scripts happened to be in there. On your laptop. With your keys sitting on disk. Trusted publishing, provenance, staged releases - all good, all recent, and none of it stops a package from shipping malware. In this episode, we speak with David Mytton, CEO of Arcjet, about defense in depth for the npm ecosystem, and why seven days of patience beats most of your tooling.   David's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmytton/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

OA1292 - Jenessa takes us through the Supreme Court's 6-3 shadow docket ruling in Trump v. California, which lifted a preliminary injunction blocking Trump's executive order directing the U.S. Postal Service to gatekeep mail-in ballot delivery before the midterms. Is this a procedural technicality or a five-alarm fire for November? And what does it mean that the Postal Service published its final rule on a Friday night, in apparent violation of an injunction, right before the Court's Monday ruling? Jenessa walks through the chaotic docket, Judge Talwani's genius pivot, and why Justice Jackson's 20-page solo dissent might be the most important thing you read this election season. Cases discussed: Trump v. California (Supreme Court shadow docket, 8/25/2026) League of Women Voters of Massachusetts v. Trump, D. Mass. DSCC v. Trump, D.D.C. State of California v.

This episode was inspired by an instagram feed dedicated to helping people have healthier communication, called happy couples connect. We’ve all felt triggered during heated conversations with our partners, and that’s when we usually make it about the other person: it’s because of THEIR tone, or THEIR timing. The truth is most of us are operating out of fear and we either get defensive, use harsh words, or shut down without trying to understand the other person. We go over the five questions you can ask yourself, before a difficult conversation turns into knock-down, drag-out fight. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rogier Windhorst and David Livingston: Professor Windhorst warns that the Hubble Space Telescope's orbit will begin to decay uncontrollably by September 2033 due to solar maximum atmospheric expansion. To prevent a hazardous, uncontrolled re-entry, Windhorst advocates for a robotic servicing mission to boost Hubble's orbit. As the only remaining telescope with precise blue-ultraviolet capabilities, Hubble's data remains critical and heavily in demand. Windhorst urges NASA to fund a $100 million rescue mission and eventually construct the Habitable Worlds Observatory to search for Earth-like exoplanets starting in 2040. (3)

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this "Ask Me Anything" (AMA) episode, Peter takes a deep dive into the liver and its central role in metabolic health. He explains why the liver can serve as a "canary in the coal mine" for metabolic dysfunction and explores how insulin resistance, visceral fat, alcohol consumption, genetics, and hormones contribute to liver disease, along with how increasing muscle mass can benefit liver health. Peter provides a framework for understanding the progression of liver disease, highlighting which stages are reversible and why early detection matters. He explains why normal liver enzymes can provide false reassurance, which labs he uses to assess liver health, and the tools available for detecting fibrosis and more advanced disease. Peter then breaks down the interventions that can meaningfully improve liver health once risk or disease is identified, ranging from diet and exercise to GLP-1–based therapies and other medications. Finally, he examines popular claims around liver "detoxification" and supplements, separating what is supported by evidence from what is unlikely to meaningfully improve liver health.
