"There are a huge array of medical dynamics that people endure, and when they leave a lasting impact, a word that we don't use widely enough is the word 'trauma.' There's an entire category of phenomena in the medical arena that are, in fact, traumatic. One way we know that these experiences are traumatic is that we know that huge portions of people who experience things like cancer do indeed develop problems like [post-traumatic stress disorder]," James C. Jackson, PsyD, research professor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about understanding medical trauma in oncology.

Highlights From This Episode "Many people have a notion about what medical trauma is, but perhaps they lack a definition. I use a definition that is deliberately broad because I think it is better to be inclusive than exclusive. A medical trauma to me is a medical experience or a medical encounter that basically leaves a mark. It leaves an emotional mark, and that mark is significant enough to disrupt your daily life." TS 2:06 "When somebody develops a life-threatening illness—let's say cancer—it's not their problem only. It's very much a family problem. It affects any manner of people. There is literature that says that family members of people with life-threatening conditions often have rates of PTSD that are every bit as high as the patients do. There's also literature that says that if we can identify this issue as a family problem—a family challenge, not just an individual challenge—then very often that patient is going to do better." TS 8:23 "We just need to make space for people to feel however they feel. And we need to emphasize, I think, that in some ways, even though there's no cancer on the scan, cancer casts a long shadow in the lives of people, which is why when patients after cancer see their primary care provider, when they come back for a checkup with oncology, we need to continue this conversation of 'How is your mental health? Are you okay? How's your anxiety? How are you managing?' … We need to be really curious and kind, and we need to query people about how they're doing, even if officially they don't have cancer." TS 16:20 "Trauma-informed care has become a bit of a buzzword in our culture. But when it is engaged correctly, I think it's really important. And I think in a nutshell, what it means is that as providers, we need to recognize that some situations and circumstances are likely to be traumatic, and we need to pivot and engage people differently now that we know that. Specific features of trauma-informed care might be we're really going to value your emotional safety. We're going to emphasize that. We are going to emphasize boundaries. We are going to ask your permission instead of telling you how to do things. We are going to be really attentive to the language we use to engage you because we're aware of there might be things about your situation that are really triggering." TS 28:15 "I think one [misconception] certainly is that it is only afflicting and affecting people who are frail or weak—not very strong. That's emphatically not true. But that's a popular misconception—that if I'm strong enough, if I'm resilient enough, this experience will not be traumatic to me. It's just not true. Medical trauma doesn't just happen in emotionally weak people. Medical trauma can impact people of all sorts." TS 33:42 "The other misconception, I think, is that there is no hope for people in the throes of medical trauma. I'm not advocating 'hopium,' It's a term that was coined, I think, during the pandemic. I don't think that living with medical trauma is all rainbows and unicorns and shiny things. But the truth is, if you get the treatment that you need, you can find a way to thrive with medical trauma even as you're impacted by medical trauma. This, this 'both-and-ness' is really true. You can both be adversely affected and you can even find some beauty in your struggle. Both can be true." TS 34:13 "I wish people understood that there is a name for this phenomenon. We're naming it here today medical trauma. Not everyone who has cancer has medical trauma—not even close—but there are many people who do. And I think many of those people, they don't quite have a name for it. And when I introduce this name for it—trauma—many of them say, 'Oh, my gosh, that makes so much sense. I didn't quite understand why I was struggling so much with this. I didn't quite understand why it casts such a long shadow in my life. I didn't really understand why I was having panic attacks every time I had to get another scan at the oncology office to see if my breast cancer had returned. Now I understand. Now I understand it's because it was trauma.'" TS 35:09

The "Hungry Summer" and the Stench of Rot. Guest: Patrick Scanlan. Scanlan describes the unique horror of the blight's progression, noting that it struck potatoes both in the ground and in storage. Typically, the summer was the "hungry time" in Ireland as stocks ran low before the new harvest. However, P. infestans ensured that even harvested and stored potatoes rotted, removing any buffer for the starving peasantry. Witnesses described a distinctive, nauseating odor emanating from the blighted fields, which some likened to the smell of rotting human flesh. In previous crises, weather-related failures were often localized, but this epidemic was relentless and island-wide. The complete destruction of the staple crop meant that laborers who relied on potatoes for subsistence were left with absolutely nothing to eat or sell. This biological disaster, coupled with the existing economic fragility of the conacre system, turned a subsistence crisis into a total social calamity that the government was ill-prepared to handle. 81880 FAMINE

Anthony Santana survived fentanyl addiction, homelessness, drug dealing, and nearly 100 overdoses — but what he saw inside the rehab industry shocked him almost as much as the streets. In this episode of The Connect, Anthony exposes the dark world of rehab corruption, body brokering, and treatment centers allegedly profiting from fentanyl addicts through insurance payouts. He breaks down how addicts are recruited, paid, recycled through detox programs, and sometimes pushed back into relapse so the money keeps flowing. Anthony also opens up about selling fentanyl and Xanax in California, living homeless in Los Angeles, dealing drugs in MacArthur Park, surviving overdoses, and eventually finding real recovery after years of addiction. This is a raw look at the fentanyl crisis, the California rehab scam, and the hidden business behind addiction treatment. Go Support Anthony!

In dieser Episode sprechen Daniel Kubik, Tobias Büchner und Marco Haas über die drei größten Lügen im Gym. Mythen, die seit Jahren durch Social Media, Broscience und schlechte Trainingsphilosophien weitergetragen werden. Wir gehen tief darauf ein, warum Pump, Muskelgefühl und vermeintliche Progression oft völlig falsch interpretiert werden und wie diese Missverständnisse Athleten langfristig ausbremsen. Gleichzeitig erklären wir, was wirklich zählt, wenn es um effektiven Muskelaufbau, sinnvolle Trainingssteuerung und nachhaltige Entwicklung geht. Mit einer Mischung aus Erfahrung, Praxisbeispielen und klaren Worten räumen wir mit den gängigsten Fehlinformationen auf und geben Athleten konkrete Strategien an die Hand, um smarter zu trainieren und Verletzungen zu vermeiden.

Summary:In this episode of the Smart Strength Training Podcast, I explores time-efficient strategies and advanced methods for progression, focusing on drop sets and cluster sets. I break down what drop sets actually are. Despite their popularity, the research is inconsistent and they perform on par with straight sets. I then unpack cluster training and its use. The key takeaway throughout is that straight sets should still make up around 90% of your training across the year, with these advanced methods layered selectively over the top.Chapters:01:50 – Drop sets explained: what they are and why they're the most overhyped progression method02:27 – How drop sets work: taking a load to failure, then stripping weight for more reps04:47 – The honest take: research is inconsistent and drop sets are roughly equivalent to straight sets07:10 – Practical application: exercise selection, safety, and using drop sets in the final weeks of a block08:00 – Cluster training introduced: breaking a set into mini-sets with short intra-set rest11:54 – Why clusters are the more useful tool: busting plateaus, managing fatigue, and learning push-ups and pull-upsIf you want help with your own training, check out my website to see more information about how to work with me online: andyvincentpt.com

"We aren't looking for answers yet. We're learning how to sit with the questions." As we prepare for an upcoming appointment with our neurologist, a simple question from Jennifer sparked a conversation neither of us expected to have. What if Dan's MS has progressed? To be clear, nothing has changed. We haven't received any new diagnosis, and Dan has not been reclassified from relapsing-remitting MS to secondary progressive MS. But after nearly three decades of living with Multiple Sclerosis and noticeable changes in his gait and energy levels, it felt like an important conversation to have. In this episode, we talk openly about our fears, questions, and uncertainties that can come with long-term MS. We discuss: What prompted us to start talking about disease progression before our upcoming neurology appointment How physical therapy has revealed both strengths and challenges in Dan's mobility and endurance Jennifer's experience transitioning from relapsing-remitting MS to secondary progressive MS years ago The realities of caregiving, aging, and adapting to changes in ability over time Why community, conversation, and preparation matter when facing difficult questions about the future More than anything, this episode is about facing possibilities without letting them define us. Regardless of what happens at our next neurology appointment, we are still the same people we were before we walked into the office. We hope you'll join us for this conversation, especially if you've ever wondered what the future might hold for your MS or how to navigate the uncertainty that comes with living with a chronic illness. *** Remember to rate, review, and subscribe to A Couple Takes on MS Podcast for two insightful perspectives on this one multifaceted disease.

Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among men and remains a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. While age, family history, and genetics are well-established risk factors, researchers have increasingly focused on the role of metabolic health in prostate cancer progression. Obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and chronic inflammation have all been associated with more aggressive disease, but the molecular mechanisms connecting these conditions to prostate cancer remain incompletely understood. A research paper titled “Epigenetic dysregulation and biological function of PDX1 in prostate cancer” was published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget. In this study, the researchers investigated whether a gene best known for regulating pancreatic function may also play an important role in prostate tumor biology. The study was led by first author Tayo A. Adeyika and corresponding author Bernard Kwabi-Addo from Howard University, Washington, DC.

In this episode of Myopia Progression and the Role of Atropine in Managing Myopia, we speak with Dr Loren Rose about one of the fastest growing challenges in children's eye health. We explore emmetropisation, the natural process by which a child's eyes develop towards clear vision, and what happens myopia. Dr Rose explains key concepts including hyperopic reserve, what a dioptre actually measures, and why both genetics and environment play important roles in myopia development. We discuss the influential Taiwan studies showing that spending around two hours outdoors each day can help reduce the risk of myopia, as well as the evidence linking prolonged near work and screen use with increasing rates of short-sightedness. We discuss the role of atropine drops and peripheral defocus lenses.  Further reading Rose LVT. The quest for safe and effective myopia control in children.

Emma Grede has some strong opinions about careers, and not everyone will agree with all of them. In this episode, Helen and Sarah borrow brilliance from Start With Yourself, Emma's new book, picking out six of her most provocative statements and asking the question: do we agree? Emma Grede, co-founder of Skims and Good American, is refreshingly unfiltered about what it takes to build a career on your own terms. Helen has curated the statements most relevant to squiggly careers, and Sarah hasn't seen them in advance. What follows is honest, at times uncomfortable, and occasionally results in a rewrite.

ETP 218 is all about progression models. The whole conversation starts from one non-negotiable idea: eventually there has to be real, tangible progression. Most of the "models" people get excited about are really just different ways to make the process less mundane than running linear or double progression forever. And to be clear, LP and DP are still the GOAT. They're proven, time-tested, and they work. We break down what they actually are and why they've earned that status.The catch with all of these models is that they live and die by consistent form. Heavier weights or more reps with execution falling apart isn't progress. A big reason we like employing these models in the first place is that they tend to produce more consistent output and execution than LP/DP, where the only thing you're chasing is weight and reps. That consistency is a lot of why they're effective.From there we walk through the models we actually use and where each one fits.Covered in this episode:Why LP and DP are the proven foundation, and why everything else is built on top of themWave loading, including the 4/3/2 strength model and the 4-3-2-1-0 weekly RIR approach Bryan often runs, where the goal is to beat the same week in sequence so progression plays out over a five to six week windowBryan's current favorite: 2-week microcycles, alternating an intensity week (2 x 5-8 to 0-1 RIR) with a volume week (4-5 x 5-6 at 85-90% of the prior week's load)Rep goal progression, basically a more fun spin on double progression, hitting a total rep target across your sets before adding loadReverse pyramid and top set plus back-off work, where progression is driven mostly by the top set and the back-offs chase stimulusVolume progression, the original RP model, where workload climbs week to week before load goes up across the mesoDensity progression, doing the same work in less time, plus Aaron playing devil's advocate on whether efficiency gains actually confirm strength or hypertrophy progress or just imply itLoad cycling across longer time frames, meso to mesoMyo-rep and rest-pause progression, beating your total rep count session to sessionTimestamps:00:00:00 Episode Introduction and Personal Updates00:13:41 Refining Hypertrophy In-Person Seminar00:14:41 Goodlabs Discounted Private Bloodwork00:15:10 Diving into Progression Models00:22:39 Waveloading and Its Applications00:29:22 Set Structures and Rep Ranges00:31:44 Microcycle Training: Balancing Intensity and Volume00:34:28 Understanding Reps and Volume in Training00:36:45 The Benefits of Volume Weeks00:38:14 Rep Goal Progression: A Fun Approach00:39:19 Top Set Back Off Set: A Popular Training Method00:43:32 Exploring Pyramid Training: A Classic Approach00:47:54 Volume Progression: Pros and Cons00:52:31 Density Progression: Efficiency vs. Effectiveness00:58:08 Load Cycling: A Structured Approach to Progression01:02:38 Myo Reps: Time-Efficient Training Techniques Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media  ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

Au Vietnam, une nouvelle réalité inquiète les autorités publiques. Réputée pour son alimentation saine et équilibrée, la gastronomie vietnamienne fait désormais face à de nouvelles habitudes. Aujourd'hui, environ 20 % de la population est en situation de surpoids ou d'obésité. Selon l'Organisation mondiale de la santé, le pays connaît l'une des progressions les plus rapides d'Asie du Sud-Est. De notre correspondant à Hanoï, Sur les trottoirs de la capitale, ces jeunes dégustent des cafés au lait concentré, à la crème salée ou au jaune d'œuf. Une seule boisson peut contenir l'équivalent de la dose journalière de sucre recommandée par l'OMS. Dans ce café branché d'Hanoï, une jeune vendeuse explique la préparation de ses boissons. « La quantité de sucre varie, il y a environ entre 35 et 50 g de sirop, ce qui correspond à environ 20 à 30 g de sucre raffiné pour une portion de boisson de 350 à 500 ml. Les jeunes Vietnamiens aujourd'hui aiment manger sucré, oui, confirme-t-elle. Ils aiment la restauration rapide et boire des boissons qui contiennent beaucoup de sucre. » McDonald's, KFC ou Lotteria : depuis les années 1990 et l'ouverture économique du pays sur le monde, les chaînes de fast-food n'ont cessé de se développer, modifiant progressivement les habitudes de consommation. À Hanoï, dans certains quartiers, jusqu'à 40 % des jeunes seraient en situation de surpoids ou d'obésité. Les villes sont les plus exposées à cette hausse, explique Alice Nguyên, diététicienne. « Il y a beaucoup de nouvelles tendances alimentaires qui arrivent. Par exemple, les boissons et la nourriture, il y a beaucoup de publicités autour de ces produits, souligne-t-elle. La plupart des gens ne sont pas vraiment conscients de comment un apport excessif en calories peut avoir un impact sur le taux d'obésité. » À lire aussiComprendre d'où tu viens pour savoir qui je suis Les jeunes en première ligne Selon elle, les jeunes sont en première ligne face au phénomène. Le gouvernement a récemment annoncé la mise en place de mesures dans les écoles, avec un meilleur encadrement des repas et des actions de sensibilisation auprès des élèves. « Je pense que la génération plus âgée au Vietnam est celle qui consomme le plus de nourriture “réelle”, des aliments non transformés, plutôt que les jeunes », poursuit la diététicienne. Chaque jour, Hoa prépare des petits plats à base de tofu, de sauce de poisson ou encore de légumes frais du marché. Les mains sur la cuisinière, cette soixantenaire remue dans une poêle des champignons et du bœuf, en expliquant ses recettes favorites. « C'est les crevettes sautées avec du porc, sans utiliser beaucoup d'huile, et les plats sont très légers, tout en étant nutritifs, souligne-t-elle. Par exemple, le tofu frit avec des oignons, ou encore du poulet bouilli, dont le bouillon peut être utilisé pour cuisiner la courge. » Pour encourager la consommation de produits plus sains, les autorités vietnamiennes multiplient les mesures. Depuis 2026, l'étiquetage nutritionnel plus détaillé est devenu obligatoire sur les produits alimentaires. Le pays doit progressivement faire entrer en vigueur une taxe sur les boissons sucrées.  À écouter dans Le goût du mondeLe secret des Vietnamiennes

What does it really mean when scripture says that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever?In this throwback solo episode, Megan Farner explores one of the most misunderstood phrases in scripture and challenges the common assumption that "the same" means "unchanging." Drawing from the King Follett Discourse, Lectures on Faith, the Book of Mormon, and broader spiritual principles, she examines how God's consistency may be rooted in perfect obedience to eternal law rather than the absence of growth or progression. Topics include: The true nature and character of God  Joseph Smith's teachings on eternal progression  The King Follett Discourse  Faith as a principle of power  The doctrine of Christ and spiritual transformation  Eternal laws, agency, miracles, and divine potential  What it means to become more like God If you've ever wrestled with questions about God's nature, eternal progression, or the relationship between faith and spiritual growth, this episode offers a thought-provoking perspective.Subscribe for more conversations on scripture, spiritual development, temple symbolism, and the path of discipleship.Timestamps00:00 Introduction 00:15 What Does "God Is the Same" Mean? 02:04 Why Understanding God's Nature Matters 06:00 The Problem with "Unchanging" Interpretations 07:05 Joseph Smith on God's Progression 10:47 God and Eternal Law 13:53 The Law of Gender & Divine Partnership 15:31 Polarity, Opposition, and Creation 19:25 Symbolism and the Law of Correspondence 21:59 Thoughts, Agency, and the Law of Attraction 24:40 Faith as a Principle of Power 27:27 Cause and Effect: The Law of the Harvest 29:01 Rhythm, Cycles, and the Doctrine of Christ 29:59 Consecration and the Law of Abundance 31:36 Oneness, Zion, and Atonement 33:03 Scriptural Evidence for God's Consistency 38:25 God as a God of Miracles 43:00 Faith, Repentance, and Spiritual Alignment 44:47 No Variableness, Neither Shadow of Changing 47:42 The Counterfeits of Eternal Law 55:51 Learning to Become Like God 58:16 Divine Potential and Co-Equality with God 01:00:28 Temple Covenants and Eternal Laws 01:01:24 Final Thoughts If you feel called to better understand and embody your divine femininity, consider if our next cohort of Return to the Garden is for you!

Join host Kimmi Devaney as she chats with Jason Shamburg and Nic Schoenberger, founders and managing partners of Kansas Dairy Development (KDD), about raising dairy replacements and leading a dynamic, high-caliber team. KDD is a calf ranch and heifer-raising facility based in Deerfield, Kansas, that raises youngstock for dairy clients in Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New York, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Wyoming. They also operate a calf depot in Wisconsin.  Progression of calves and heifers at KDD:  KDD receives calves at 2 to 3 days of age on average, and calves spend approximately 90 days in bedded hutches with a wire paneled outdoor area. After 90 days, calves are moved into transition barns for approximately 60 days. The transition barns range in size from 480'- 660' in length with individual pens that are 30' wide by 90' deep with a 35' deep roof structure at the back of the pen. Pens are well drained and bedded seasonally with a curtain at the north end of the barn that can be raised and lowered seasonally as conditions require. Calves move to group pens at 150 days of age, which have a significant shade and windbreak structure. Both the group pens and transition barns are bedded heavily to the conditions and needs of the animals throughout the year. At 180-200 days of age, animals are moved to more traditional open lot pens where they will continue to grow until they are moved into the breeding area at approximately 350 days of age. Heifers will be bred according to their voluntary waiting period (VWP) and grown to eventually head back to their respective home dairy at 210 days carrying calf (DCC) on average).  Episode breakdown:  [~1:10] How KDD and the partnership between Shamburg and Schoenberger came together about a decade ago[~2:15] About their calf depot[~4:30] Seasonal management differences, including bedding year round[~7:20] Heifer breeding program[~8:30] Data management[~12:45] Overview of calf ranch and heifer development programs[~13:40] Their client base and how they built those relationships over the last decades[~16:20] Biosecurity[~19:25] Keys to successfully raising heifers[~23:40] How their core values help to shape their team culture[~31:00] Qualities they look for in new employees[~33:05] Keeping employees motivated and engaged[~35:30] The greatest lessons Shamburg and Schoenberger have learned about leading a high-caliber team[~37:45] Schoenberger was recognized by the Holstein Foundation with the 2026 Young Dairy Leaders Institute (YDLI) Distinguished Alumni Leader Award[~39:00] Schoenberger's message for current the YDLI class and what he hopes they gain from their experience[~41:40] Rapid-fire questions

CardioNerds Dr. Joseph Kassab, Dr. Mariana Garcia-Arango, and Dr. Christopher Mason explore the technological revolution of Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA) with expert faculty Dr. Michael Gallagher. The discussion details how CCTA has evolved into a frontline diagnostic and preventive tool, moving beyond simple anatomy to incorporate physiology via CT-FFR and biology through AI-driven plaque quantification. The episode reviews landmark evidence like the SCOT-HEART and PROMISE trials, the nuances of CAD-RADS 2.0 reporting, and the emerging role of AI in monitoring treatment response and personalizing cardiovascular care. Critically, they also discuss some of the assumptions and limitations of these techniques. Stay tuned for a matching review article to be submitted to US Cardiology Review, the official Journal of CardioNerds. This episode was supported by an independent medical education grant from HeartFlow.

CardioNerds Multimodality Cardiovascular Imaging PageCardioNerds Episode PageCardioNerds AcademyCardionerds Healy Honor Roll Pearls Shift in Paradigm: CCTA is no longer just an anatomic test; with some key limitations, it can provide anatomy, physiology (CT-FFR), and plaque biology (AI-CPA) in a single non-invasive scan. The “Power of Zero” vs. Plaque: While a normal CCTA has a >95% negative predictive value, future MIs often arise from non-obstructive plaque that traditional stress tests might miss. CAD-RADS 2.0 Utility: The addition of plaque burden modifiers (P1–P4) is a “game changer,” allowing clinicians to identify high-risk patients who need aggressive lipid-lowering despite having only mild stenosis. CT-FFR as a Virtual Stress Test: CT-FFR uses computational fluid dynamics to simulate blood flow, potentially reducing unnecessary invasive catheterizations by approximately 61% without sacrificing safety. Seeing the Invisible: AI-based quantitative plaque analysis (QCPA) can identify “subvisual” plaque and low-attenuation (lipid-rich) components that are the primary drivers of acute coronary syndromes. Show Notes How has the role of CCTA changed compared to traditional functional testing? Historically, stress testing answered “is there ischemia today?”, which often reflects late-stage disease. CCTA identifies disease across the entire spectrum, asking “is there atherosclerosis and how much plaque is present?”. Landmark evidence: SCOT-HEART showed a 41% relative risk reduction in MI at 5 years attributed to intensified preventive therapies, and PROMISE showed CCTA was better at selecting patients who truly needed invasive angiography. Diagnostic CCTA imaging depends on the protocol, contrast timing, heart rate, heart rhythm, breathholding, scanner quality, and several patient factors (obesity, prior stents, heavy calcification, complex bypass anatomy, and motion artifact all may limit imaging). “CCTA is exceptional for the right patient, with the right scanner, and the right team.” What are the key modifiers introduced in CAD-RADS 2.0, and why do they matter? CAD-RADS 2.0 moved beyond stenosis severity to include plaque burden (P0 to P4), high-risk plaque (HRP) features, and the presence of ischemia based on CT-FFR. It serves as a clinical decision support tool: a patient with mild (25-49%) stenosis but “extensive” (P4) plaque burden is considered high risk and warrants aggressive risk factor modification. How is CT-FFR calculated, and when is it most useful in clinical practice? CT-FFR uses resting CCTA data and computational fluid dynamics to create a 3D model of coronary flow during simulated maximal hyperemia. It is often used for intermediate lesions (40–90% stenosis) to predict if they are  ischemia-producing, guiding the decision whether to proceed with invasive angiography.  The assumptions necessary for this computational modeling may not apply well to patients with microvascular dysfunction, significant myocardial scar or prior infarction, or ventricular hypertrophy. Still, data indicate that CT-FFR performs similarly to PET in predicting hemodynamically significant lesions.  CT-FFR performs well at the extremes (either clearly normal or clearly abnormal). Accuracy dips, however, in the intermediate range (~0.75-0.80), where decision-making is most critical. In this grey zone, additional factors can help guide the approach, including the amount of myocardium supplied, translesional gradient, and plaque features.   CT-FFR has not been validated in distal segments, stented segments, heavily calcified coronary arteries, or in patients with severe aortic stenosis. Caution with CT-FFR should be utilized in very calcified coronary segments.  What is AI-based quantitative plaque analysis (QCPA), and what metrics are ready for clinical use? This is potentially a paradigm shift, moving away from stenosis-centric thinking to a more disease burden and plaque biology focus. QCPA uses deep learning algorithms to automatically segment the vessel wall and quantify plaque volume in mm³. Ready for “prime time” metrics include: Total Plaque Volume (TPV), non-calcified plaque volume, and Low-Attenuation Plaque (LAP) burden. Can serial CCTA be used to monitor the effectiveness of medical therapies like statins? While not yet a routine guideline-driven practice, trials like PARADIGM and EVAPORATE show that therapies can stabilize plaque; notably, CCTA is better for monitoring than CAC scores, which can be misleading as statins often increase plaque calcification as part of the stabilization process. There are no randomized trials that serial CCTAs improve outcomes. Cost and radiation exposure will be notable limitations. Serial scan timing, scan acquisition and interpretation standardization would be key. Dr. Gallagher notes that we are moving toward a world in which plaque burden may become a “treatment biomarker,” similar to tumor burden in oncology.  References 1.

Kevin shifts the week's video to debrief a recent Spinistry event and address social-media criticism about value and communication, focusing on an email exchange with “Joe” after Red River Riot. Joe cites GPS/navigation problems, not seeing arrows, missing emails, unclear inclusions (water stop, routes access, post-ride food/drink), and wanting mementos; Kevin explains the $50 fee is a trial membership, routes are released event-week due to changing road conditions, details are provided via signup pages and multiple emails, and cloverleaf routes with double-backs support a centralized manned water table and require riders to understand device limitations (with Ride with GPS as a backup). He also outlines membership tiers (steel, carbon, family, titanium, and trial options) and discusses budget constraints, reduced merch, and venue-specific costs. The episode ends with a tour of the Gainesville “old outlet mall” venue (35 and Liberty/Tractor Bob's), parking/restrooms/food options, how to access routes via Bikerides.org, and ideas for future collaborations and Unbound-related training hubs.00:00 Why This Video Exists01:10 Route Conditions Preview01:55 Zebra Roadside Detour03:00 The Comment That Sparked It03:55 Reading My Facebook Reply06:43 Joe Email Breakdown11:14 My Email Response12:56 Why We Operate Differently15:28 Communication And Route Access20:48 Navigation Issues And Marking23:49 Cloverleaf Routes Explained24:53 Garmin Route Pitfalls28:04 Ride with GPS Backup29:04 Entry Fee Value30:59 Why Perks Vary34:01 Emails and Next Steps35:25 Road Washout Detour38:11 Membership Levels Explained43:48 Progression and Community45:02 Venue Tour and Future Plans

Hosted by David Cowen | Careers and the Business of Law Adam Rouse (Walgreens), Ashley Christakis (CrowdStrike), John Koss (Mintz), and Major Baisden (Lineal) pick up where they left off at LegalWeek in New York - ten weeks later, the conversation is sharper. The question on the table: how do you evaluate legal technology when the problem isn't fully defined yet? The answer involves a framework, a maturity arc, and a lot of grace. WHY THIS MATTERS? If your legal team is still waiting for the perfect data environment before acting on AI, you're already behind. This group agrees: the chaos is the condition. The only way through it is a deliberate strategy, documented workflows, and the courage to take the first step. KEY TAKEAWAYS Comfort with the unknown is the new baseline. The velocity of AI adoption has accelerated the FOMO - but the core evaluation process hasn't changed as much as we think. The three I's - Initiate, Investigate, Implement - apply to more than technology. Use them for concepts, use cases, and people, too. Most legal departments are somewhere between ad hoc and operational on the maturity arc. Very few are close to optimized - and that's okay. Stop chasing use cases. Start documenting how you actually get work done. That's the unlock for AI value. Data nirvana doesn't exist. Progression and discipline do. Don't wait for a perfect data ecosystem before extracting value. AI is the great information governance equalizer. Nothing is obscure anymore - if it's accessible, it will get indexed. The real AI dividend isn't just productivity. It's capability - doing things you were never able to do before. Know why you're doing what you're doing - and why you're not doing what you're not doing. That clarity builds organizational confidence and stronger client relationships.

We outline three key principles: Jump to the Ball: As soon as the ball is passed, defenders must jump in the direction of the pass to close off passing lanes and disrupt offensive movement. Force the Offensive Player Behind You: This involves positioning oneself to ensure the offensive player cannot cut in front, effectively using the body to maintain defensive dominance. Refuse to Get Front Cut: Defenders must prevent offensive players from cutting in front of them, maintaining a strong position to deny easy baskets. We then illustrate these principles through three progressive drills: Basic Denial Drill: This drill involves an offensive player at the top, a defender, and another player or coach on the wing. The goal is to prevent the offensive player from receiving a return pass by jumping to the ball and forcing the player to cut behind the defender. Progressive Denial Drill: Building on the first drill, this exercise has the offensive player circling out to the opposite wing after attempting the front cut. The defender must maintain their position and be ready to close out on the ball once it's skipped to the opposite side. Complex Denial Drill: This drill adds an additional offensive and defensive player, allowing practice of both individual and team defensive concepts. It involves denying the initial front cut, rotating to deny the pass back to the top, and then closing out on the skip pass. Throughout these drills, we emphasize the importance of vocal and physical pressure, using commands like "dead, dead, dead" to reinforce defensive intensity. These drills not only teach fundamental defensive techniques but also help in developing a cohesive team defense. By mastering these jump ball progression drills, coaches can significantly enhance their team's defensive capabilities, ensuring they are well-prepared to counteract common offensive plays.

Dr. Alex Menze and Dr. Kathryn C. Fitzgerald discuss using accelerometry to detect subtle, longitudinal changes in disability in people with multiple sclerosis and how these changes relate to brain atrophy and disability progression.  Show citation:  Fitzgerald KC, Sanjayan M, Dewey BE, et al. Association of Changes in Activity Patterns With Brain Atrophy and Disability Progression in People With Multiple Sclerosis. Neurology. 2026;106(7):e214678. doi:10.1212/WNL.0000000000214678  Show transcript:  Dr. Alexander Menze: Hi, this is Alexander Menze. I just finished interviewing Kate Fitzgerald for the Neurology Podcast. For today's Neurology Minute, Kate, I'm hoping you can tell us the main points of your paper. Dr. Kathryn C. Fitzgerald:  So we followed 238 people with MS who are 40 or older for over three years and they wore risk-worn accelerometers roughly every three months and had regular clinical assessments and brain MRI. And what we found was that changes in activity patterns over time at the individual level were associated with subsequent changes in disability worsening and brain volume loss, particularly in the deep gray matter and thalamus. Dr. Alexander Menze: Thank you very much. Be sure to download this week's podcast to hear our full interview.  

On February 3rd, 2026, Joe Pine released The Transformation Economy, which is a follow-up to The Experience Economy co-written with James Gilmore and published in 1999. They identified a key pattern of how economic offerings have evolved beyond commodities, goods, and services, and moved into experiences as well as transformations. Their prescient predictions about these underlying patterns in the late '90s took many years of convincing businesses of their merits. But after a few decades, their core ideas of The Experience Economy have taken root, and now it is much easier to see how consumers have shown that they are willing to pay for memorable experiences. Now Pine is back at it again with The Transformation Economy with ideas that have been there from the very beginning, but he told me that the world wasn't ready yet, and he wasn't ready either. About 5-6 years ago, Pine started to hear from designers at World Experience Organization events talking about the transformative intent behind their experiences. This was the catalyst indicating to him that it was time to finally write this book, and he started researching the topics of aspiration, positive psychology, human flourishing, and the dynamics of transformation. I had a chance to interview Pine about The Transformation Economy, and in my write-up below I provide an overview of some of his biggest ideas, some of my personal reactions, how they relate to the XR industry, and finally some of my disagreements on where value comes from. Despite some of my philosophical disagreements with Pine, I still see a lot of value in the frameworks laid out in his book. He describes a roadmap towards a future where the core values driving a critical mass of businesses have evolved to focus on helping their customers fulfill their deepest aspirations, find meaning and purpose, and promote human flourishing. Progression of Economic Value Pine & Gilmore first theorized about a hierarchy of economic value in a 1997 article titled: "Beyond Goods and Services: Staging Experiences and Guiding Transformations." They originally called it "The Economic Pyramid," and described it by saying, "The inexorable march of competitive forces drives the advancement of economic offerings over time: commodities are extracted from the environment to make goods, then delivered as services, which are scripted to stage experiences, which then guide those persons or enterprises in a transformation." "The Progression of Economic Value" figure from page 3 of Pine's The Transformation Economy (2026). Within their "Welcome to the Experience Economy" article in the 1998 issue of Harvard Business Review and in their 1999 book The Experience Economy, they started calling it "The Progression of Economic Value" as shown in the figure above. In The Transformation Economy on page x, Pine describes each of the five distinct economic genres as well as their associated verb / function, Extract Commodities (fungible stuff) Make Goods (tangible things) Deliver Services (intangible activities) Stage Experiences (memorable events) Guide Transformations (effectual outcomes) There is an inevitable gravity towards commodification, and the antidote is customization. This insight first came to Pine in 1994 after he wrote a book in 1993 titled Mass Customization: The New Frontier in Business Competition that explored how Mass Production was moving into Mass Customization. When customization is applied to a service, then it yields an experience. When customization is applied to an experience, then it has the potential to yield a transformation that could be life-changing. Here's how Pine & Gilmore described this progression to transformations in their original 1997 article, "The way out of the commodization trap in which so many service companies find themselves is to move up an echelon of value and stage an experience. But experiences are not the utmost in economic offerings. Just as customizing a good automatically turns it into a service, so customizing an experience turns it into something distinct. If you design an experience so in tune with what an individual needs at an exact juncture in time, you cannot help but change that individual — guiding him to (and through) a life-transforming experience. Transformations are a fifth economic offering, whose value far exceeds that of any other." Pine also says in The Transformation Economy that "Eliminating human contact is a surefire way to commoditize yourself." Technology has an inclination to move more and more towards automation and creating "frictionless experiences," but I see the value of human intuition, emotion, relationality, community, and meaning being a differentiating factor in the transformation economy. I suspect that it will be really beneficial to deliberately embrace friction and tension that comes from interacting with other humans as explored in the piece called Deep Soup. I see the movement towards the transformational economy as a bit of an argument against automating too many things with AI because people will be craving authentic human contact. Key Concepts and My Personal Experience of The Transformation Economy The Transformation Economy book is written with the intention to become a transformational experience within itself. There are many pointed questions throughout the book that helped shape my overall framing through the lens of my business. My first reading of the book was focusing on trying to understand the origin, development, and evolution of Pine's provocative ideas to explore within my interview with him. My ongoing second reading of the book has catalyzed me to reconceive some fundamental notions around my identity, as well as the story of why I do what I do with The Voices of VR Podcast. So much of my work has been driven by a fundamental impulse to bring about change in the world. My motivation to cover the frontiers of emerging technology with XR, AI, immersive storytelling, and experiential design has been because I've seen the transformative power of embodied and immersive experiences to potentially bring about some meaningful changes in the world. I'm also very much drawn to philosophical frameworks like Process Philosophy that provide some key metaphysical foundations leading to a paradigm shift around the underlying nature of experience and reality itself. Here's a graphic from Andrew Davis' upcoming Whitehead's Universe book that lays out some of the scaffolding of this paradigm shift from substance metaphysics to process-relational metaphysics. Davis, Andrew M. (Forthcoming in 2026). Whitehead's Universe: A Prismatic Introduction. Orbis Books. One of the key concepts that really stuck with me from Pine's The Transformation Economy was at the beginning of the third chapter that says, "All transformation is identity change." Pine cites Suzy Ross' definition of identity as "all the ways you can complete the statement ‘I am . . .' " He says "From / To" statements are also key where you might say, "I was X, now I am Y." I really resonate with these definitions of identity since they're very flexible and practical. Once I became aware of these "I am ..." statements, then I started to hear them all the time. I found myself naturally making and reflecting upon identity statements, which provide clues to changes that I aspire to. As an example, I've often found myself saying something to the effect of "I'm more a knowledge artist than a viable business person." So in essence, my aspirational, identity-transformation statement is "I am a terrible business person, but I aspire to become a thriving independent scholar and transformational change agent." Reading through The Transformation Economy has been really inspiring since it's the first business book I've ever read where I can really see myself in these frameworks. Pine has been giving me language to articulate the possible futures that I'd love to live into, but yet the business models around the transformation economy are still nascent, uncertain, not very well specified, and rapidly developing. Each business will have a unique blend of commodities, goods, services, experiences, and/or transformations that they'll be offering, and so it is unlikely that there will be a universal formula that works across all contexts. I'm still meditating on this statement where Pine claims that your business is what you charge for. He says on page 22, "A business ultimately defines itself by what it charges for. If you charge for undifferentiated stuff, you're in the commodities business. If you charge for tangible things, you are in the goods business. If you charge for the activities your people do, you are in the services business. So, economically, you are in the experience business if and only if you charge for the time customers spend with you." Pine says that experiences are inherently ephemeral, and sometimes the only thing you keep from it is the memory, which can fade over time. He contrasts this with his definition of transformations, which he shares on page 10 as, "Transformations are effectual outcomes that change individuals in a lasting way. Where experiences are memorable, transformations are effectual." This implies that the business offering of transformations actually has more of an ongoing time commitment. Businesses in the transformation economy will be helping "aspirants" (Pine's preferred term for customers in the transformation economy) achieve their aspirations of transforming from one state into another state over longer periods of time. Aspirants will need to invest time, be patient with results, make progress, but also deal with periodic regressions. I've been reckoning with how I am what I charge for, and I can't help but think about the logistical difficulty in trying to escape the real-time accounting of how we've conceived of value delivered
