In der aktuellen Podcast-Folge habe ich mit Stefanie Balzarek gesprochen, CEO und Gründerin von Avori. Stefanie ist Elektroingenieurin mit über zehn Jahren Erfahrung im Energie-Consulting und hat sich schon lange vor dem aktuellen Ladeboom intensiv mit der Kombination aus Ladeinfrastruktur, PV-Anlagen und Speichern beschäftigt. Bereits ihre Masterarbeit 2015 drehte sich darum, wie mittelständische Unternehmen solche Systeme effizient integrieren können – zu einer Zeit, als viele das Thema noch gar nicht auf dem Radar hatten. Mit Avori verfolgt sie seit 2023 ein klares Ziel: Ladeinfrastrukturprojekte für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen, Gewerbe- und Wohnimmobilien schneller, effizienter und deutlich transparenter umzusetzen. Das Prinzip dahinter beschreibt sie als „eine Art Check24 für Ladeinfrastruktur“. Unternehmen geben in rund 25 Minuten ihre Projektdaten auf der Plattform ein, erhalten automatisch erstellte Konzepte und bekommen von vorqualifizierten Anbietern passgenaue Angebote. Der Vorteil: Alle Angebote sind vergleichbar und berücksichtigen exakt die zuvor definierten Anforderungen. Stefanie kennt die Herausforderungen aus eigener Erfahrung – vor allem die Überforderung vieler Kunden durch zu viel Fachjargon und zu komplexe Entscheidungsprozesse. „Oft wird das Thema so kompliziert dargestellt, dass Projekte lieber verschoben werden. Wir wollen genau diesen Moment vermeiden und den Entscheidungsprozess radikal vereinfachen“, sagt sie. Zentralisierte Schritte wie die einmalige 3D-Standortaufnahme oder die gebündelte Erfassung technischer Daten sparen Zeit und Kosten auf beiden Seiten und machen selbst kleinere Projekte für Anbieter attraktiv. Die Vergütung erfolgt über eine einheitliche Provision der Anbieter, zusätzliche Services wie Workshops werden individuell abgerechnet. Erste Erfolge gibt es bereits: Gewerbeimmobilien, in denen jahrelang trotz mehrfacher Planung nichts umgesetzt wurde, konnten innerhalb weniger Wochen zur Beauftragung gebracht werden. Auch mittelständische Flotten, die zuvor keinen passenden Anbieter fanden, profitieren vom Marktplatz – besonders, weil Avori gezielt auf regionale Vergabe setzt. „Es macht weder ökologisch noch wirtschaftlich Sinn, Elektriker quer durchs Land zu schicken. Wir wollen die Dezentralität stärken“, betont Stefanie. Aktuell liegt der Schwerpunkt noch auf Ladeinfrastruktur, perspektivisch sollen aber auch PV- und Speicherlösungen stärker eingebunden werden. Dabei verfolgt Stefanie einen pragmatischen Ansatz: lieber in klaren Schritten starten, als an einer perfekten, aber überfordernden Komplettlösung zu scheitern. „Wir müssen anfangen, bevor wir an den Marathon denken. Und wir sollten so bauen, dass wir später erweitern können, ohne doppelte Kosten zu verursachen“, fasst sie zusammen. Nun aber genug der Vorrede – hör direkt rein in unser Gespräch und erfahre, wie Stefanie und ihr Team Ladeprojekte auf ein neues Level bringen wollen.

Duke Energy's Andy Browning joins Dave and Steve to unpack how a modern utility balances today's demand spikes—especially from data centers—with tomorrow's low-carbon grid. Andy traces his path from Babcock & Wilcox field engineer to Duke's GM of Engineering & Construction Services, explains why Duke runs an “all-of-the-above” strategy (gas as a bridge, batteries for flexibility, solar growth, hydro upgrades), and makes the case that nuclear—both large units and SMRs—will anchor long-term reliability. The trio dig into dam stabilization, battery use cases (peak shaving and PV smoothing), project timelines and costs, community engagement, and how policy and tariffs shape what actually gets built. They close with a look at fusion research and a rapid-fire on bourbon, woodworking, and what fuels resilience.Key TakeawaysCareer & scope: Andy oversees engineering, construction, commissioning, quality, safety, and project controls for Duke's big builds.Cultural lesson: International work taught him to respect local pace and processes—context changes what “top priority” means.Hydro safety: Post-FERC reviews are driving earthen-dam rebuilds (compaction, drainage layers) to prevent liquefaction under seismic events.Resource mix: Duke is pursuing gas, nuclear, solar, hydro, and batteries; offshore wind unlikely near-term given costs and policy headwinds.Batteries' role: Great for peak shaving and smoothing solar variability; typical systems are 2–4-hour duration (e.g., 10 MW / 40 MWh).Scale & siting: Solar needs ~6–10 acres per MW and only delivers during daylight; data centers requesting 400–1,000 MW reshape planning.Timelines & costs (rule of thumb): Batteries ~12–15 months after development; solar similar; combined-cycle gas ~4 years; nuclear 10+ years.Cost reality: A 75-MW solar site ≈ $100–150M; a 1,000-MW gas plant ≈ ~$2B; nuclear is multiples beyond—but with long lifespans.Nuclear outlook: Expect SMRs + large reactors; challenges include qualified supply chains, workforce, and public education; existing units targeting 80-year life via extensions.Data-center surge: Demand is soaring; innovative financing/ownership models (e.g., behind-the-meter, cost-sharing) may protect retail customers.

In this episode, we speak with Silvia Pugliese and Monica Larrazabal, co-founders of Norma and the only all-female founding team among the c.150 direct air capture startups operating today. They share how their breakthrough supercapacitor approach could drastically slash the energy requirements of carbon capture.Pugliese and Larrazabal discuss:How they discovered a way to "cheat" on energy requirements by combining supercapacitor energy storage technology with CO2 capture, creating a hybrid device that recycles energy through each capture cycle.Their modular approach with desk-sized units that can be deployed anywhere, contrasting with competitors' massive industrial facilities requiring hundreds of millions in funding.The company's measured approach to cost projections, deliberately avoiding the over-promising that has plagued the DAC industry, while still targeting dramatic improvements over current $600-1000 per tonne costs.Securing pre-seed funding led by Contrarian VC, known for rigorous DAC due diligence, and landing MilkyWire as their first commercial client despite being in early development stages.Their 2025-2030 roadmap: pilot testing in 2026, first commercial facility by 2029, and targeting megatonne-scale operations by 2030.How airlines could use their CO2 for e-fuel production, with potential applications ranging from direct air capture and storage to point source capture, leveraging the technology's versatility.The founders also discuss the challenges of being female entrepreneurs in a male-dominated deep tech sector, their base in central Paris near the Marie Curie museum, and their vision of normalising female-led climate tech companies by 2035.Larrazabal explains why the DAC industry is in its "innovation decade" similar to renewable energy in the 1960s-70s, and why they believe they've found the "solar PV moment" for carbon capture.Learn more about the innovators who are navigating the industry's challenges to make sustainable aviation a reality, in our new book 'Sustainability in the Air: Volume 2'.

Devocional do dia 23/09/2025 com o Tema: “Mente sã”Como médico, já atendi muita gente com queixa de dor. No começo, ficava frustrado quando, em muitos casos, não achava o que justificasse aquele mal. E mesmo ao encontrar, com frequência precisava raciocinar muito para associá-lo à queixa. Com o tempo, aprendi que muitos casos de dor têm origem psicossomática, conhecidos como dores da alma. Não é fricote ou maluquice. São dores reais, que servem como alerta de que algo está errado.LEITURA BÍBLICA: Salmo 32.3-5 Quem esconde os seus pecados não prospera, mas quem os confessa e abandona encontra misericórdia (Pv 28.13).

A Câmara dos Deputados aprovou, por 311 votos a favor, 163 contrários e 7 abstenções, o regime de urgência para o projeto de anistia, que agora segue direto ao plenário sem passar pelas comissões. A articulação foi conduzida por líderes da oposição junto ao presidente da Casa, Hugo Motta, com amplo apoio de partidos como PL, Republicanos e PP. Já PT, PSB, PDT, PSOL, PCdoB, PV e Rede votaram contra.A proposta tem como base um texto do deputado Marcelo Crivella, que prevê anistia a participantes de manifestações políticas entre outubro de 2022 e a data de entrada em vigor da lei. Ainda não está claro se o projeto final beneficiará o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro, condenado pelo STF, mas há discussões para reduzir as penas, o que poderia favorecê-lo.

Prior to Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Moldova was ranked by the International Energy Agency (IEA) as among the least self sufficient countries in the world in terms of energy. The country imported nearly all of its natural gas from Russia, and gas provided to the Transnistrian region by Russia free of charge was used to generate about 75% of the country's electricity. With the onset of the war, and Russia's choice to spark multiple energy crises in Moldova as a tool of coercion, the country has had to make rapid changes. Moldova's Renewable Energy Revolution In April 2025, an all-time record of 36% of the country's total electricity consumption was provided by locally produced renewable energy. Right now, Moldova has more than 750 MW of installed renewables capacity - more than an 8x increase from 4 years ago. Of this, 529 MW is from photovoltaic (PV) solar panels, 212 MW is from wind energy and the rest is from biogas and hydroelectric. By far the fastest growing source of power generation in Moldova is PV panels. The Complex Public-Private Mix Driving Investment Since Moldova fully broke away from Russian supplied energy, consumer electricity prices have skyrocketed. This has led to a major push from the government to diversify energy sources and modernize the country's energy market. In a situation where the country's only major traditional power generation capability is two small scale Soviet-era thermoelectric plants, this has led to a major pivot towards renewables. Carolina Novac, State Secretary of the newly created Ministry of Energy, explained that the government now has 3 priorities in the energy market - security, affordability and competition. Taken together these priorities mean Moldovan made energy, especially renewables. The Ministry recently approved the results of a series of tenders for the construction of new renewable energy installations, namely 105 MW of wind and 60 MW of solar. According to Irina Apostol, Energy Manager at NGO Green City Lab in Chisinau, investments like these are attractive because the suppliers can benefit from 15 year fixed-rate supply contracts. But there are also options for smaller investors to get involved in Moldova's energy transition. For "small producers" building photovoltaic plants up to 1 MW there is another program allowing for regulated fixed-rates for power production also on 15-year contracts. This program has limits though, equipment can't be older than 36 months and there is a cap on the total capacity that can be licensed under this plan. The country's existing power grid and regulatory framework mean that there are lots of new opportunities, but also lots of upgrades and reforms needed to build a modern, green energy system. Energy Aggregators and Small Investors Navitas Energy, a subsidiary of Moldova's largest power company Premier Energy, is a major player in Moldova's renewable energy market. The company operates on the unregulated market, buying and selling energy according to market prices without long term guaranteed contracts. They have constructed 5 photovoltaic parks of their own with a capacity of 18 MW, but also work with other small producers as an aggregator. Caption: A new photovoltaic park built by Navitas in Budesti near Vadul lui Voda. PV parks have become a regular appearance in the Moldovan countryside set amidst vineyards and rolling fields. "Navitas Energy SRL, acting as an aggregator together with the producers that own 121 renewable energy power generation plants, accumulates a total installed capacity of 180 MW." writes Navitas CEO Mihail Gidei The small investors behind those 121 solar and wind power plants sell energy to Navitas which bundles this power and sells it forward - both to Moldovan customers and on the Romanian and Ukrainian markets. This allows small producers who might not be eligible for fixed contract government programs to invest and sell their energy to consumers. The average producer in Navitas' network is rela...

The effect of immediate weightbearing after planovalgus foot reconstruction in ambulatory children with cerebral palsyBackground and Objective(s)Planovalgus (PV) is a common foot deformity in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Orthopedic surgery is widely established as an effective treatment for deformity correction though there is clinical variation in post-op therapy protocols. Immediate weightbearing (WB) after PV foot correction could accelerate recovery but concern for post-op complications causes reluctance. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of complications after PV foot surgery in children with early WB vs. non-WB (NWB).Study Participants & Setting135 ambulatory children with CP (GMFCS I (12%), II (58%), III (30%)) met inclusion criteria and were included from a children's hospital setting and assessed in the gait laboratory.Materials/MethodsThis IRB-approved retrospective cohort study included ambulatory children (GMFCS I-III) with CP and PV foot deformity who underwent reconstructive surgery and pre (within 18 months) and post-op (1-3 years) gait analyses. Complications were defined in three timeframes: (1) short-term, within 6 months of surgery, by radiograph review for nonunion, hardware failure, or infection requiring return to surgery, (2) mid-term, at 1-3 years, by pedobarographic assessment, and (3) long-term, > 3 years, by recurrence requiring surgical revision. Fisher exact tests compared the prevalence of complications between immediate WB and NWB groups. Regression analysis evaluated the relationship between complications and child, surgical, and post-operative factors.Results140 surgical events were completed on 224 feet at age 12.7 ± 2.8 years. Following surgery, 84% of children followed an immediate WB protocol, and 16% were NWB for the first six weeks. The prevalence of short-term complications between the WB and NWB groups was no different (nonunion/hardware failure/infection, WB 3%/1%/0%; NWB, 0%/3%/0%; p>0.9). There were no between group differences in mid-term correction status (under- corrected/corrected/over-corrected, WB 31%/45%/24%; NWB, 32%/54%/14%; p>0.9). The prevalence of long-term recurrence necessitating surgery was not significantly different (WB/NWB, 3%/11%; 8.5±2.8 years post-op; p>0.9). Regression analysis demonstrated WB status was not a significant predictor of correction status or long-term recurrence requiring revision (p>0.05).Conclusions/SignificanceComplication rates were very low after planovalgus foot correction surgery in ambulatory children with CP. There were no significant differences in complications, clinical outcomes, or need for surgical revision between groups who followed immediate WB vs. NWB post-op protocols. Immediate WB after PV foot correction surgery presented no increased risks compared to NWB and should be encouraged in children with CP. Early WB, standing, and walking may prevent disuse muscle weakness and promote faster recovery of gross motor mobility, enhancing patient care. Future studies should examine the impact of early WB on recovery time and long-term functional outcomes.

Port of Waterford has lodged a direct planning application with An Coimisiún Pleanála for its Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Capable Terminal at Belview, County Kilkenny. This marks a major milestone for the company, the oldest Port in Ireland, with its application reinforcing Waterford's ambition to play a central role in shaping the future of the country's renewable energy sector. The application follows the recent granting of Maritime Area Consent (MAC) by the Maritime Area Regulatory Authority (MARA), which provides the legal basis for the Port to seek permission to develop the new infrastructure. Securing the MAC was a crucial step in advancing the South East as a hub for offshore wind, and it now allows the Port of Waterford to progress its vision of building a purpose-designed ORE terminal. The scale of the proposed development reflects both the immediate and long-term needs of the sector. Central to the project is a 250-metre extension to the existing wharves at Belview. The application also provides for extensive land reclamation, new quayside operator support facilities with workshops and warehouses, berthing pontoons, and two separate three-storey office and staff buildings for ORE operators. The development includes a replacement electricity substation, underground services, roof-mounted solar PV arrays to generate renewable power on site, and a dedicated biodiversity enhancement area of approximately 1.8 hectares. The investment will transform the Port's capacity to support large-scale offshore renewable energy projects, creating the conditions for Waterford to act as a strategic staging ground for major developments such as the proposed Tonn Nua Offshore Wind Farm and future projects across the Celtic Sea. With Ireland committed to generating 7 GW of offshore wind by 2030, the ORE Capable Terminal at Waterford is designed to support this target and beyond. This positions the Port not only as a logistics gateway, but as a leader in delivering a just transition to a low-carbon economy for the South East and the wider country. The economic potential is equally significant. Beyond its immediate construction and operational benefits, the ORE Capable Terminal represents a long-term investment in sustainable business and regional prosperity. The project will generate high-quality jobs across maritime operations, engineering, logistics, and green technology, while also creating opportunities for SMEs and local suppliers to integrate into the offshore wind supply chain. Speaking on the application, CEO at Port of Waterford, David Sinnott, says, "This is a landmark day for Port of Waterford. Our application is about more than new infrastructure - it's about creating jobs, driving growth in the South East, and helping Ireland meet its 2030 climate goals. Waterford has been a maritime gateway for over a thousand years, and now we are ready to lead Ireland into its offshore renewable future."

Chorea describes involuntary movements that are random, abrupt, and unpredictable, flowing from one body part to another. The most common cause of genetic chorea in adults is Huntington disease, which requires comprehensive, multidisciplinary care as well as support for care partners, who may themselves be diagnosed with the disease. In this episode, Aaron Berkowitz, MD, PhD FAAN speaks with Kathryn P. L. Moore, MD, MSc, author of the article “Huntington Disease and Chorea” in the Continuum® August 2025 Movement Disorders issue. Dr. Berkowitz is a Continuum® Audio interviewer and a professor of neurology at the University of California San Francisco in the Department of Neurology in San Francisco, California. Dr. Moore is an assistant professor and director of the Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Fellowship in the department of neurology at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina.

Dr Berkowitz: This is Dr Aaron Berkowitz with Continuum Audio, and today I'm interviewing Dr Kathryn Moore about her article on diagnosis and management of Huntington disease and chorea, which appears in the August 2025 Continuum issue on movement disorders. Welcome to the podcast, Dr Moore. Could you please introduce yourself to our audience? Dr Moore: Yeah, thank you so much. I'm so excited to be here. I'm Dr Moore. I'm an assistant professor of neurology at Duke University, where I work as a movement disorder specialist. I run our fellowship there and help with our residency program as well. So, I'm excited to speak with our listeners about chorea today. Dr Berkowitz: Fantastic. And we're excited to talk to you about chorea. So, as a general neurologist myself, I only see chorea pretty rarely compared to other movement disorders like tremor, myoclonus, maybe the occasional tic disorder. And like anything I don't see very often, I always have to look up the differential diagnosis and how to evaluate a patient with chorea. So, I was so glad to read your article. And next time I see a patient with chorea, I know I'll be referring to your article as a great reference to have a framework for how to approach it. I hope our readers will look at all these helpful tables on differential diagnosis based on distribution of chorea in the body, potential etiologies, time course of onset and evolution, associated drug-induced causes, what tests to send. So, I highly recommend our listeners read the article. Keep those tables handy for when a patient comes in with chorea. I'm excited to pick your brain about some of these topics today. First, how do you go about distinguishing chorea from other hyperkinetic movement disorders when you see a patient that you think might have chorea? Dr Moore: One of the wonderful things about being a movement disorder specialist is we spend a lot of time looking at movements and training our brain to make these distinctions. The things that I would be looking out for chorea is involuntary, uncontrolled movements that appear to be brief and flowing from one part of the body to another. So, if you can watch a patient and predict what movements they're going to do, this probably isn't chorea. And it should be flowing from one part of the body to another. So, not staying just in one part of the body or having sustained movements. It can be difficult to distinguish between a tic or dystonia or myoclonus. Those things tend to be more predictable and repetitive than the chorea, which tends to be really random and can look like dancing. Dr Berkowitz: That's very helpful. So, once you've decided the patient has chorea, what's your framework for thinking about the differential diagnosis of the cause of the patient's chorea? Dr Moore: Well, that could be really challenging. The differential for chorea is very broad, and so the two things that I tend to use are age of the patient and acuity of onset. And so, if you're thinking about acute onset of chorea, you're really looking at a structural lesion like a stroke or a systemic issue like infection, hyperglycemia, etc. Where a gradually progressive chorea tends to be genetic in nature. When you're thinking about the difference between a child and an adult, the most common cause of chorea in a child is Sydenham's chorea. And actually, the most common cause of chorea that I tend to see is Parkinson's disease medication. So, if anybody's seen dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease, you've seen chorea. But it's those two things that I'm using, the age of the patient and the acuity. Somewhere in the middle, though---so, if you have subacute onset of chorea---it's important to remember to think about autoimmune conditions or paraneoplastic conditions because these are treatable. Dr Berkowitz: That's very helpful. So, like in any chief concern in neurology, we're using the context like the age and then the time course. And then a number of other helpful points in your article about the distribution of chorea in the body. Any comments you'd like to make about- we have this very helpful table that I thought was very interesting. So, you really get deep into the nuances of chorea and the movement disorder specialist expert level. Are there any aspects of parts of the body affected by chorea or distribution of chorea across the body that help you hone your differential diagnosis? Dr Moore: Certainly. I think where the chorea is located in the body can be helpful, but not as helpful as other conditions where you're localizing a lesion or that sort of thing. Because you can have a systemic cause of chorea that causes a hemichorea; that you can have hyperglycemia causing a hemichorea, or even Sydenham's chorea being a hemichorea. But things that we think about, if the forehead is involved, I would think about Huntington's disease, although this is not pathognomonic. And if it's involving the face or the mouth, you can think about neuroacanthocytosis or, more commonly, tardive dyskinesia. Hemichorea would make me think about some of those systemic issues like hyperglycemia, Sydenham's chorea, those sorts of things, but I would rely more on the historical context and the acuity of presentation than the distribution itself. Dr Berkowitz: Got it. That's very helpful. So those can be helpful features, but not sort of specific for any particular condition. Dr Moore: Exactly. Dr Berkowitz: Yeah, I often see forehead chorea mentioned as sort of specific to Huntington's disease. Since I don't see much Huntington's disease myself, what does forehead chorea look like? What is the forehead doing? How do you recognize that there is chorea of the forehead? It's just sort of hard for me to imagine what it would look like. Dr Moore: It's really tricky. I think seeing the eyebrows go up and down or the brows furrow in an unpredictable way is really what we're looking for. And that can be hard if you're having a conversation. My forehead is certainly animated as we're talking about one of my favorite topics here. One of the tricks that I use with the fellows is to observe the forehead from the side, and there you can see the undulation of the forehead muscles. And that can be helpful as you're looking for these things. I think where it's most helpful to use the forehead is if you're trying to determine if someone with a psychiatric history has tardive dyskinesia or Huntington's disease, because there can be quite a lot of overlap there. And unfortunately, patients can have both conditions. And so, using the forehead movement can be helpful to maybe direct further testing for Huntington's disease. Dr Berkowitz: Oh, wow, that's a very helpful pearl. So, if you see, sort of, diffuse chorea throughout the body and the forehead is involved, to my understanding it may be less specific. But in the context of wondering, is the neuropsychiatric condition and movement disorder related by an underlying cause in the case of seeing orofacial dyskinesias, is the relationship a drug having caused a tardive dyskinesia or is the whole underlying process Huntington's, the absence of forehead might push you a little more towards tardive dyskinesia, presuming there is an appropriate implicated drug and the presence of forehead chorea would really clue you in more to Huntington's. Did I understand that pearl? Dr Moore: That's exactly right, and I'm glad you brought up the point about making sure, if you're considering tardive dyskinesia, that there has been an appropriate drug exposure. Because without that you can't make that diagnosis. Dr Berkowitz: That's a very helpful and interesting pearl, looking at the forehead from the side. That is a movement disorders pearl for sure. Sort of not just looking at the forehead from one angle and trying to figure out what it's doing, but going to look at the patient in profile and trying to sort it out. I love that. Okay. So, based on the differential diagnosis you would have crafted based on whether this is sort of acute, subacute, chronic, the age of the patient, whether it's unilateral, bilateral, which parts of the body. How do you go about the initial evaluation in terms of laboratory testing, imaging, etc.? Dr Moore: Well, certainly in an acute-onset patient, you're going to get a number of labs---and that's listed out for you in the paper---and consider imaging as well, looking for an infarct. One thing our learners will know is that sort of the typical answer to what's the infarct causing hemichorea would be the subthalamic nucleus. But really, those infarcts can be almost anywhere. There are case reports for infarcts in a wide variety of places in the brain leading to hemichorea. So, I think some general blood work and an MRI of the brain is a good place to start. For someone who has a more chronic course of the development of chorea, there are certain labs that I would get---and an MRI, because if you get an MRI and there's heavy metal deposition or other disease, structurally, that indicates a certain condition, that can help you pretty considerably. But otherwise, I'm looking for inflammatory markers, heavy metals, HIV, some general other things that are outlined, to help make sure that I'm not missing something that's treatable before I go down the route of genetic testing. And we may talk about this in a little bit, but if you start out with genetic testing and then you sort of have to back up and do more systemic testing, that can be very disjointed when it comes to good patient care. Dr Berkowitz: That's very helpful. So yeah, if it's acute, obviously this is the most straightforward scenario, acute and unilateral. We're imagining something lesional, as you said, either a stroke or---not sort of sudden, but fast, but not sudden---you might think of another structural lesion. Toxoplasmosis, right, has an affinity for the basal ganglia if you were seeing this in a patient who is immunocompromised. But in a case that, probably as you alluded to, sort of what we would see most commonly in practice, those still relatively rare, sort of subacute to chronic symmetric chorea. There's a long list of tests that are recommended. In your article and in other texts, I've read lupus testing, anti-phospholipid antibodies… but the list is long. I'll refer readers to your article. Out of curiosity as a specialist, how often do you see any of these labs come back revealing any underlying diagnosis in a patient who's otherwise healthy and just has developed chorea and comes to you with that chief concern? I feel like I've sent that mega-workup a few times; I'm obviously a general neurologist, but not nearly as many times as you have been. It's- I can't remember a time where something has come up, maybe an ANA one to forty or something like this that we don't think is relevant. But in your practice, how often do you end up finding a reversible cause in the laboratory testing versus ending up starting to go down the genetic testing route, which we'll talk about in a moment? Dr Moore: It's not common, but it is important that we capture these things. Because for a lot of those laboratory tests, there are treatments that are available, or other health implications if those come back positive. So, the case I think of is a polycythemia vera patient who had diffused subacute onset chorea and was able to be treated, was temporarily managed with medication for her chorea, and as her PV improved, she was able to come off those medications. As I was alluding to before---and I'm sure we'll talk about genetic testing---if you test for HD and it's negative, do you go down the route of additional expensive genetic testing, or do you then circle back and go, oops, I missed this treatable condition? As we talk about genetic testing as well, getting HD testing is a pretty involved process. And so, we want to make sure we are checking all those boxes before we move forward. So, it's not common, but we do catch some treatable conditions, and that's really important not to miss. Dr Berkowitz: That's very interesting. So, you diagnosed that polycythemia vera by blood smear, is that how you make the diagnosis? Dr Moore: Yes. Dr Berkowitz: And is that a once-in-a-career-so-far type of thing, or does that happen time to time? Dr Moore: For me, that's a once-so-far, but I don't doubt that I'll see it again. Dr Berkowitz: Great. And how about lupus and some of these other things we look for in the absence of other systemic features? Have you picked up any of these or heard of colleagues picking up something on laboratory testing? They said, oh, this patient came in for a referral for genetic testing, negative Huntington's disease. And good news, we found polycythemia vera; good news, we found undiagnosed lupus and we reversed it. I'm just curious, epidemiologically, seeing these long lists and not having the subspecialty practice that you do, how often you find a reversible cause like we do for neuropathy all the time, right? Oh, it's diabetes, it's B12---maybe not reversible, but preventing progression---or reversible dementia work up. You get so excited when you find low B12 and you replete the patient's B12, and they get better when they had been concerned they were developing an irreversible condition. How often does one in your subspecialty find a reversible cause on that initial mega-lab screen? Dr Moore: I think it's really uncommon, and maybe the folks that do are caught by someone else that never make it to Huntington's clinic, but I don't tend to see those cases. There are, of course, case reports and well-described in the literature about lupus and movement disorders and things of that nature, but that doesn't come to our clinic on a regular basis for sure. Dr Berkowitz: Got it. That's helpful to hear. Well, we've alluded to genetic testing a number of times now, so let's go ahead and talk about it. A lot of your article focuses on Huntington disease, and I was thinking about---in the course of our medical training in medical school, and then neurology residency, for those of us who don't become movement disorder experts like yourself---we learn a lot about Huntington disease. That's sort of the disease that causes chorea, until we later learned there are a whole number of diseases, not just the reversible causes we've been talking about, but a number of genetic diseases which you expertly reviewing your article. So, what are some of the red flags that suggest to you that a patient with chronically progressive chorea---and whom you're concerned for Huntington's or another genetic cause---what are some things you notice about the history, about the exam, the symptoms, the signs, the syndrome, that suggest to you that, actually, this one looks like it might not turn out to be HD. I think this patient might have something else. And as you have alluded to, how do you approach this? Do you send HD testing, wait for it to come back, and then go forward? Are there genetic panels for certain genetic causes of chorea? Do you skip just a whole exome sequencing, or will you miss some of the trinucleotide repeat conditions? How do you approach this in practice? Dr Moore: I'll try to tackle all that. One thing I will say is that a lot of patients with chorea, regardless of the cause, can look very similar to one another. So, if you're looking at chronic onset chorea, perhaps with some neuropsychiatric features, I'm going to most often think about HD because that's the most common cause. Certainly, as we mentioned before, if there's a lot of tongue protrusion, I would think about the acanthocytic conditions, neurocanthocytosis and McCloud syndrome. But generally in those conditions, we're looking at HD as the most likely cause. Certainly, if there is epilepsy or some other syndromic types of things going on, I may think more broadly. But it's important to know that while HD, as you mentioned, is the cause of chorea, many of our patients will have parkinsonism, tics, dystonia, a whole host of other movement phenomenologies. So, that wouldn't dissuade me from thinking about HD. When we think about the kind of patients that you're describing, upwards of 95% of those people will have Huntington's disease. And the process for genetic testing is fairly involved. The Huntington's Disease Society of America has organized a set of recommendations for providers to go about the process of genetic testing in a safe and supportive way for patients and their families. And so that's referred to in the article because it really is important and was devised by patients and families that are affected by this disease. And so, when we're thinking about genetic testing for HD, if I reveal that you have HD, this potentially affects your children and your parents and your siblings. You can have a lot of implications for the lives and health and finances of your family members. We also know that there is high suicidality in patients with HD, in patients who are at risk for HD; and there's even a higher risk of suicidality in patients who are at risk but test negative for HD. So, we do recommend a supportive environment for these patients and their families. And so, for presymptomatic patients or patients who are at risk and don't have chorea, this involves making sure we have, sort of, our ducks in a row, as it were, when we think about life insurance, and, do you have somebody supportive to be with you through this journey of genetic testing, no matter what the results are? So, oftentimes I'll say to folks, you know, there's this 20-page policy that I encourage you to look at, but there are Huntington's Disease Centers of Excellence across the country that are happy to help you with that process, to make sure that the patients are well supported. This is an individual genetic test because, as you mentioned, it is a CAG repeat disorder. And unfortunately, there is no chorea panel. So, if an HD test comes back negative, what we'll do then is think about what's called the HD phenocopies. As I mentioned before, some of these patients who look like they have HD will have a negative HD test. And so, what do you do then? Well, there's a handful of phenocopies---so, other genetic mutations that cause a very similar presentation. And so, we try to be smart, since there's not a panel, we try to be smart about how we choose which test to do next. So, for instance, there's a condition called DRPLA that is present in an African-American family here in my area, in North Carolina, as well as in Japan. And so, if someone comes from those backgrounds, we may decide that that's the next test that we're going to do. If they are white European descent, we may consider a different genetic test; or if they're sub-Saharan African, we may choose a different one from that. However, even if you do a really thorough job, all those blood tests, all those genetic tests, you will occasionally get patients that you can't find a diagnosis for. And so, it's important to know even when you do a good job, you may still not find the answer. And so, I think trying to do things with this complex of the presentation in a systematic way for yourself so you're not missing something. So, going back to our answer about, how do I look at lupus and polycythemia vera and all of that, to think about it in a systematic way. That when you get to the end and you say, well, I don't have an answer, you know you've tried. Dr Berkowitz: That's very helpful to hear your approach to these challenging scenarios, and also how to approach the potential challenging diagnosis for patients and their families getting this diagnosis, particularly in the presymptomatic phase. And your article touches on this with a lot of nuance and thoughtfulness. So, I encourage our listeners to have a read of that section as well. So, last here, just briefly in our final moments, you discuss in your article the various symptomatic treatments for chorea. We won't have time to go into all the details of all the many treatments you discussed, but just briefly, how do you decide which medication to start in an individual patient with chorea for symptomatic management? What are some of the considerations related to the underlying condition, potential side effect profiles of the particular medications, or any other considerations just broadly, generally, as you think about choosing one of the many medications that can be used to treat chorea? Dr Moore: Certainly. So, there is a group of FDA-approved medications, VMAT2 inhibitors, that we can choose from, or the off-label use of neuroleptics. And so, there's a lot of things that go into that. Some of that is insurance and cost and that sort of thing, and that can play a role. Others are side effects. So, for the VMAT2 inhibitors, they all do have a black box warning from the FDA about suicidality. And so, if a patient does struggle with mental health, has a history of suicidality, psychiatric admissions for that sort of thing, then I would be more cautious about using that medication. All patients are counseled about that, as are their families, to help us give them good support. So, the neuroleptics do not tend to have that side effect and can help with mood as well as the chorea and can be helpful in that way. And some of them, of course, will have beneficial side effects. So, olanzapine may help with appetite, which can be important in this disease. So, the big considerations would be the black box warning and suicidality, as well as, are we trying to just treat chorea or are we treating chorea and neuropsychiatric issues? Dr Berkowitz: Fantastic. Thank you for that overview. And again, for our listeners, there's a lot more detail about all of these medications, how they work, how they're used in different patient populations, their side effects, etc, to be reviewed in your excellent article. Again, today, I've been interviewing Dr Kathryn Moore about her article on diagnosis and management of Huntington's disease in chorea, which appears in the August 2025 Continuum issue on movement disorders. Be sure to check out Continuum Audio episodes from this and other issues. And thank you so much to our listeners for joining today. And thank you again, Dr Moore. Dr Moore: Thanks for having me.

Energiewende Deutschland Batteriespeicher – darum geht's in dieser Episode mit Energieunternehmer und Autor Gerd Schöller. Zuerst räumen wir Mythen beiseite, danach übersetzen wir Fakten in konkrete Schritte für Unternehmen.   Energie bleibt der Treibstoff für Wachstum; zugleich sorgt die Debatte für Unsicherheit. Einerseits hören wir Warnungen vor Blackouts, andererseits sehen wir enorme Fortschritte bei Erneuerbaren. Genau deshalb ordnen wir ein: Was ist Panik, was ist Physik – und was ist Politik?   Warum Batteriespeicher jetzt der Hebel sind: Sie glätten Erzeugungsspitzen, verhindern Lastspitzen und stabilisieren das Netz. Außerdem lassen sich Preisspreads gezielt nutzen. Dadurch steigen Planbarkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit. Gleichzeitig ermöglicht bidirektionales Laden, dass E-Autos als flexible Speicher dienen. Somit entsteht ein neues Ökosystem aus PV, Ladelösungen und Smart Metering.   Wo es noch hakt: Zwar ist die Technik vorhanden, jedoch bremsen Prozesse, Genehmigungen und Schnittstellen. Hinzu kommt, dass der Smart-Meter-Rollout vielerorts träge wirkt. Folglich verlieren Projekte wertvolle Monate. Damit die Energiewende in Deutschland mit Batteriespeichern skaliert, brauchen wir vereinfachte Standards, klare Zuständigkeiten und kürzere Fristen.   Konkrete Schritte für Unternehmen: Erstens solltest du den Stromeinkauf strategisch aufstellen; insbesondere eignen sich PPAs (Power Purchase Agreements) für planbare, wettbewerbsfähige Preise. Zweitens lohnt sich Lastmanagement: Wenn Prozesse flexibilisiert werden, sinken Kosten unmittelbar. Drittens denke Energiewende Deutschland Batteriespeicher als Gesamtsystem: PV + Speicher + Ladeinfrastruktur + Steuerung – und zwar aus einem Guss. Viertens: Messe, analysiere und steuere Verbräuche kontinuierlich; nur so erkennst du schnelle Hebel.   Realistische Einordnung statt Alarmismus: Selbstverständlich bleibt der Umbau komplex; trotzdem zeigen zahlreiche Projekte, dass er wirtschaftlich tragfähig ist. Darüber hinaus entstehen neue Geschäftsmodelle – vom Spitzenlast-Management bis zu Flexibilitätsmärkten. Wer jetzt handelt, verschafft sich folglich einen Vorsprung bei Kostenstabilität, Resilienz und Nachhaltigkeit.   Der Blick nach vorn: Schritt für Schritt wachsen Erneuerbare, während Speicher und digitale Zähler die Volatilität ausgleichen. Gleichzeitig werden Prosumer-Modelle alltagstauglich. Deshalb geht es weniger um Ob, sondern um Wie und Wann. Entscheidend sind Tempo, klare Verantwortlichkeiten und eine Prise Mut, Projekte wirklich umzusetzen. Schließlich zahlt sich das nicht nur ökologisch, sondern vor allem betriebswirtschaftlich aus.   In der Folge bekommst du also den roten Faden: von der Einordnung über die Blockaden bis zu praxistauglichen Lösungen. Hör rein, setz die nächsten Schritte um – und mache die Energiewende zu einem Wettbewerbsvorteil.  

Step into Episode 176 of On the Delo as Delo sits down with Andrew, Executive Director of the Arizona Craft Brewers Guild, to unpack what's really happening across Arizona beer—on the brewhouse floor, at the Capitol, and out in the community. From a 20-year restaurant career to head brewer roles at The Perch and Uncle Bear's, and ultimately joining the Guild in February 2022, Andrew lays out a no-spin view of the landscape and where the wins are coming from.If you care about healthy breweries, smarter laws, and stronger taprooms, this one delivers: the event engine that funds promotion, the practical policy changes (including a hard reduction in minimum production requirements), the real challenges operators face (tourism and top-line), and why non-alcoholic offerings matter for safety and inclusion—all capped with what to expect at Arizona Beer Week and the Guild's GABF presence.Chapter Guide (Timestamps): (0:18 - 3:31) Episode Intro & Origin Story — Restaurants → The Perch → Uncle Bear's → joining the Guild (Feb 2022) (3:31 - 4:41) From Brewhouse to Business — Event season (Arizona Strong Beer Fest, Beer Week, Baja) and the “promote & protect” mission (4:41 - 5:13) Naming Matters — Reframing “Arizona Strong Beer” to clarify the festival's scope (5:13 - 7:10) Guild Snapshot — Founded in 1998, ~100 breweries statewide; 67 current members and rolling sign-ups (7:10 - 10:46) Policy Wins — Minimum production cut from 5,000 → 1,000 gallons; relief for small/innovation sites (e.g., PV pilot, Bisbee example) (10:46 - 12:48) Modernizing Service — Growler rule updates and Arizona's pro–small business footing (13:51 - 16:48) Operator Reality — Hiring stabilizes, tourism dips; focus on top-line + cross-guild collaboration and “brewery-in-planning” value (23:30 - 27:12) Inclusive Options — Non-alcoholic beer is hard and capital-intensive; hop waters and elevated N/A choices (Hoplark shout-out) (27:22 - 30:45) Arizona Beer Week — Why it runs 10 days; Pink Boots arm-wrestling, Cicerone education, and festival audience trends (33:58 - 35:37) GABF Playbook — Arizona's booth with a tourism film—showcasing the state while championing AZ beer

We'll cut through the jargon and focus on what really matters in the field—what to observe, document, and report.

Enquanto ainda refletimos sobre as nuances da vida debaixo do Sol, compreendendo que o dia mau é uma realidade e de que a esperança está em descansar no Senhor, o sábio nos conduz por um caminho de ainda mais de difícil compreensão, até mesmo intragável da perspectiva humana: “há justos que perecem em sua justiça, e há ímpios que prolongam seus dias na terra”. (Ec 7.15). É natural que, quando deparados com tal afirmação, venhamos a impetuosamente pensar sobre o que há de errado com o mundo e como isso é injusto. No entanto, novamente a verdade das escrituras nos constrange e a consideração feita pelo pensador é de que o justo que sofre não é tão inocente assim, visto que “não há nenhum justo sobre a terra que faça o bem e que não peque”. (Ec. 7.20). Ainda que regenerados em Cristo, estamos inseridos na realidade do mundo atual, com anomalias resultantes do pecado emergente da queda do homem, que a vida permanece sujeita à vaidade. O pregador nos lembra que não estamos imunes as perversidades e acidentes da vida terrena e que nós mesmos, muitas vezes, somos perversos, acusando outros de ações que já cometemos. Sim, o mundo tem algo de errado, ele é caótico, conflituoso e mau. Nós somos os causadores disso. De que maneira então podemos caminhar nessa realidade vil? O pregador nos instrui: “quem teme a Deus sai ileso de tudo isso” (Ec. 7.18), pois “o temor do Senhor é o princípio da sabedoria” (Pv. 9.10). #FAMÍLIADOSQUECREEM #SÉRIEVANITASVANITATUM Visite nosso site: http://familiadosquecreem.com Compre nossos livros e produtos: http://familiadosquecreem.com/loja Contribua financeiramente: http://familiadosquecreem.com.br/contribuir Ouça nossas músicas: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6aPdiaGuHcyDVGzvZV4LHy Siga-nos no Instagram: http://instagram.com/familiadosquecreem Curta-nos no Facebook: http://facebook.com/familiadosquecreem Siga-nos no Twitter: http://twitter.com/familiadqc

Ein Balkonkraftwerk mag eine praktische Sache sein, aber was ist, wenn man eins haben möchte, aber nicht den Platz dafür hat? Praktischerweise eignen sich die Solarpanels nicht nur zur Montage an Balkons, sondern auch etwa an Zäunen, Garagentoren, Terrassendächern und Carports. Doch auch die Nutzung eines Panels als Tischplatte ist möglich: für einen Gartentisch, der im Sommer nebenbei ein bisschen Strom erzeugt. Im c't uplink sprechen wir über diese Ideen, aber auch über ein paar allgemeinere Fragen – etwa was bifaziale Module sind, wo lichtdurchlässige Panels Vorteile haben und welche Fallstricke es bei der Verkabelung und Vernetzung gibt. Unser Titelthema zu Balkonkraftwerken lesen Sie bei heise+ und in c't 16/2025: https://heise.de/s/52MNX
