Your pension fund is likely your biggest asset, but do you know your rights when things go wrong? In this episode of "Know Your Ombud," host Maya Fisher-French interviews Pension Funds Adjudicator Muvhango Lukhaimane.. If your pension fund or employer isn't treating you fairly, you can approach the Pension Funds Adjudicator at no cost – no lawyer needed. They'll even help if you haven't tried resolving issues with your fund first. In this episode, Lukhaimane raises the importance of fund communication with many members having never even held a benefit statement. Funds are failing to share basic information about your benefits, growth, and entitlements. You should actively demand this information. Two-pot taught harsh lessons about tax. One member expecting R15,000 from his savings pot received only R2,000 because SARS deducted outstanding taxes. Remember: all withdrawals require tax clearance, so keep your affairs in order. Death benefits aren't automatic. Trustees have discretion based on actual financial dependency, not just legal relationships. In one case, trustees allocated 65% to minor children over adult children and spouse because the minors had greater dependency needs. When funds place children's benefits in beneficiary funds, the default position favours competent parents managing the money. One mother successfully challenged this when the fund couldn't prove she was incapable. But members aren't always right. One member demanded R1 million based on an incorrect statement. The ruling? You can't get what you're not legally entitled to under fund rules. Bottom line: Stay informed, know your rights, and use free help when needed.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1092: We unpack how Rivian views legacy OEMs as “adversaries”, Elon's plan to put Grok in your Tesla, and why your next Starbucks smiley face might be powered by pressure, not personality.Show Notes with links:​​Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe came out swinging against recent federal policy changes that gut EV incentives. But while the industry might stall, Rivian could gain room to thrive as legacy players backpedal.Scaringe called the rollback of EV tax credits and subsidies “bad for the world, bad for the U.S.,” and a blow to U.S. tech leadership.Ironically, fewer incentives could benefit Rivian, opening space for it's R2 and R3 rollouts.Scaringe didn't blame Congress alone—he sees legacy automakers like GM and Toyota, and their lobbyists, as Rivian's “biggest adversaries” on everything from EV registration fees to direct sales bans.He accused them of resisting change to protect outdated business models: “It's reflective of their desire that this whole EV thing would just go away. [They can suddenly say], “fine, I just won't sell those EVs.”“The folks we spend the most energy fighting against in D.C. are actual car companies,” Scaringe said. “It's very telling.”Elon Musk has confirmed that Tesla vehicles will get a native dose of his irreverent AI chatbot, Grok, starting next week “at the latest,” merging Tesla's in-car computing power with conversational AI.Grok 4, the latest model from Musk's AI startup xAI, was just released.Tesla vehicles will run a smaller version of Grok locally using their onboard computers.Musk previously teased Grok integration but had not set a firm timeline—until now.This comes amid backlash after Grok shared posts on X containing antisemitic content.“Tesla will probably have the most amount of true usable inference compute on Earth,” Musk posted on X.Those cheerful messages on your Starbucks cup might not be as heartfelt as they seem. A push for personalized notes is raising questions about authenticity and pressure on baristas.New CEO Brian Niccol wants to bring back cozy, in-store vibes by reversing mobile-heavy trends.Cup messages are now a “standard” meant to create human connection—but not all employees are thrilled.Baristas say it slows them down, especially during rush hours, and some report pressure from managers to comply.A few enjoy the creativity, but many feel it's another task disguised as joy.One Redditor shared, “I was told I'd get a final warning if I didn't write on cups.” Starbucks disputes this claim.0:00 Intro with Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier1:01 What a sarcastic car might sound like1:55 Announcements2:20 Rivian CEO Goes After Legacy Automakers and US Tax Policies6:35 Tesla To Get Grok AI Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Forensic consultant Paul Sippil explains little-known costs for business owners and plan participants and what you can do about them. When it comes to retirement planning, one of the most overlooked areas is the cost hiding within your 401(k) plan. I sat down with Paul Sippil, a forensic 401(k) consultant, in this week's episode of the Retirement Revealed podcast. For the last 20 years, Paul has been helping employers and plan participants understand the full picture of what a 401(k) really costs–and most importantly, what you can do about it. What we revealed may surprise you: many of the fees you could be paying are seemingly invisible, unspoken, and quietly leaving your retirement savings. Your 401(k) Isn't "Free" One of the most common phrases Paul hears when talking with business owners and plan participants is: “I'm not paying anything.” And technically, they're not—at least not directly. That's because 401(k) fees often don't show up on an invoice. Instead, they're extracted from participant accounts through asset-based fees, commissions, and revenue sharing agreements that most people never even notice. Here's the reality: if you're in a 401(k), especially with a small to mid-sized employer, you could be overpaying. And no one may be telling you. The Bigger the Balance, the Bigger the Fee Many 401(k) service providers charge asset-based fees, meaning the more money you have in the plan, the more you pay—even if the services don't change. That fee structure hits high-balance employees (often business owners or long-time participants) the hardest. For example, if your plan has $3 million in assets and your advisor is receiving 0.75% annually, that's $22,500 per year in compensation—whether or not they're actively helping you. Would you pay that if you received an invoice in the mail? However, when the fee is simply deducted from your account through share class expense ratios or revenue sharing, many people never realize it. Small Plans, Big Problems If you work at or own a small business with under 100 employees, your per-participant fees are likely much higher than those in larger plans. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, large plans (those with over $100 million) can be up to 50% cheaper in relative costs. Smaller plans are often stuck with higher costs and less transparency. How to Spot the Hidden Fees Finding these costs isn't easy, but there are tools: Form 5500: This publicly available tax form (found at www.efast.dol.gov) details plan costs and fund options for plans with over 100 participants. Review Share Classes: Funds come in multiple share classes. Some, like “R2,” may carry hefty embedded commissions. Ask your provider if lower-cost versions like “R6” are available. Watch for “Revenue Sharing”: This outdated and opaque compensation method allows brokers and recordkeepers to collect fees without ever issuing a bill. Why Transparency Matters Paul made an interesting point: if employers were required to write a check for 401(k) services as opposed to having the fees quietly and automatically withdrawn, he believes the plan-holders and business owners would actually negotiate those fees, thus resulting in lowered costs. But the industry thrives on invisibility—making it hard for both employers and employees to question or benchmark what they're paying. That's why we suggest a simple test: If your financial advisor can't clearly explain what they're being paid and what you're getting in return, it's time to ask better questions and evaluate your options. Self-Directed Brokerage Accounts (SDBA) If your current 401(k) doesn't offer the investment options you want, ask your employer about adding a Self-Directed Brokerage Account. This feature allows you to invest in a wider range of funds—including ETFs and commodities—that may not be available in your default menu. Not every provider offers this, but it's worth requesting.

In this detailed discussion, Michael Burgio addresses a growing trend of homeowners inquiring whether their property qualifies as a development site under recent zoning changes in NSW. He explains how to assess development potential by checking zoning (e.g., from R2 to R3), permissible building heights, and floor space ratio (FSR). Using a hypothetical 1,000 sqm block, he walks through calculating gross floor area, net saleable area, and potential number of units, illustrating how these factors can drastically affect land value. He emphasizes that tools like the state government's zoning map can provide a starting point for understanding if a property qualifies for higher-density development.Michael then explores how to estimate a site's value from a developer's perspective using "napkin math"—factoring in gross realisation (GR), construction costs, and desired return on investment. He demonstrates how variables like buildable area, setbacks, and council objections can reduce the theoretical value of a site, even if it meets zoning criteria. The conversation stresses the difference between a property's market value and its development value, advising owners to crunch numbers first before engaging with developers or agents. He concludes by suggesting a follow-up episode to cover the sales process if a site is viable.

Bongani Bingwa speak to senior Political journalist, Tshidi Madia unpacking another dramatic week in SA politics. Minister Nobuhle Nkabane’s claim of misogyny after her budget was rejected has sparked debate over whether it was a genuine critique or a deflection from poor performance, raising fresh questions about gender and power dynamics in Cabinet. In Ekurhuleni, the murder of a city auditor possibly linked to a missing R2 billion has reignited fears over the safety of whistleblowers. And finally, the passing of former Deputy President David Mabuza marks the end of an era for the ANC’s older guard how will “The Cat” be remembered, and what does his death mean for the party’s shifting power base?

UFC 317 looked great on paper and delivered in practice, as well. Ilia Topuria became the tenth man in UFC history to claim a title in a second division, and he did it in devastating fashion, knocking Charles Oliveira out cold. And he did it inside the first round, as he predicted. The brass has a rare opportunity here with Topuria and they should get behind him with every ounce of their marketing heft. This guy will be selling out arenas and making PPVs soar. And the way he torched Paddy Pimblett during their in-cage faceoff was hilarious.Alexandre Pantoja put an end to Kai Kara-France's title hopes with a third round submission, setting the UFC flyweight record for most finishes. After Joshua Van's terrific win over Brandon Royval in a fight of the year performance, Van and Pantoja also faced off in the cage, confirming they will be battling for Pantoja's belt next.

Join AEA founder John Kempf for Field Talks, a series of in-the-field conversations. This episode features Cole Neese, a corn and soybean grower in Indiana. Together, they explore real-time agronomic insights, crop progress, challenges, and success stories from the growing season. In this episode, John and Cole Neese, a farmer from West Central Indiana, discuss: Excessive Rainfall Challenges: Cole faced persistent wet conditions, saturating soils and delaying corn and soybean emergence. Success with Accelerate on Soybeans: Applying Accelerate at R2 increased soybean pod counts by 50-80%, though drought later limited yields. BioCoat Gold in Stressed Conditions: BioCoat Gold significantly improved corn performance in a late-planted, highly stressed field with low yields, likely due to enhanced mycorrhizae activity. Improved Soybean Pod Integrity: Regenerative soybeans showed stronger pods, resisting shattering during harvest, likely due to enhanced cobalt and copper levels.  About John Kempf John Kempf is the founder of Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA).

Ray White speaks to Associate Political Editor Tshidi Madia about the growing backlash over Deputy President Paul Mashatile’s travel expenses, which have climbed to nearly R8 million since July 2024. The latest flashpoint is a four-night trip to Japan that cost taxpayers close to R2 million. While Mashatile defends the trip as “strategic,” critics argue it’s an example of unchecked luxury at the public’s expense. With little transparency or oversight, questions are being raised about systems in place to curb wasteful expenditure. 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1065: Today we're breaking down Rivian's big win with VW, a wild scene in LA as Waymo vehicles go up in flames, and how back-to-school shopping is creeping into summer.Show Notes with links:The tech partnership between EV upstart Rivian and legacy automaker Volkswagen just took a major leap forward. Rivian's upcoming R2 SUV platform won't just support Rivian's own vehicles—it's about to become the backbone of every new EV under the Volkswagen Group umbrella.All VW brands—Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, Scout, Skoda, Seat—will share the R2 tech stack.VW's ID Every1 will be the first to launch using Rivian's off-the-shelf zonal architecture.The partnership helps VW replace its troubled Cariad software division with a proven modular platform.Rivian's Chief Software Officer confirmed all VW EVs will use the same scalable architecture, calling it “the digital brain” of the portfolio.Each brand keeps its unique identity via custom UI, tuning, and features, but the tech core is unified.At least five Waymo self-driving I-Pace EVs were destroyed during violent protests in Los Angeles over the weekend—representing a possible 5% loss of its local fleet.The unrest followed ICE raids and escalated into clashes with police and vandalism.Rioters reportedly summoned Waymo vehicles, slashed tires, smashed windows, and set them on fire.Fire crews couldn't access the scene in time, and the vehicles burned completely.Waymo operates about 100 cars in LA and over 1,500 nationwide.Waymo has suspended service in the area, saying, “We will not be serving any rides in the protest area until it is deemed safe,”Back-to-school deals have crept into early summer, with brands and retailers scrambling to catch up to shifting consumer habits—and to tariff-driven inventory pressures.Retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and Wayfair kicked off fall prep as early as Memorial Day.Prime Day in the middle of July now marks the unofficial start of the back-to-school shopping season.This year's shoppers are favoring essentials and budget-friendly items over big-ticket dorm splurges“Consumers are looking for the best discount, the best sale, the best value...” — Kassi Socha of GartnerJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Corruption. Black Economic Empowerment. And that R100-billion Transformation Fund…These are topics being debated hotly on a daily basis in South Africa. In his latest interview with BizNews, Toby Chance, the Democratic Alliance (DA) spokesperson on Trade, Industry and Competition, speaks about corruption at the Lotteries Commission were whistleblowers were “really severely damaged…and in many instances their lives have been ruined and their finances have been completely devastated” in the wake of allegations that up to R2-billion of corrupt grants were issued between around about 2011 and 2022. Chance gives an update on the controversy surrounding the appointment of a new licence operator and says: “It would be very surprising to me if there wasn't further litigation coming up around the corner…So they (Ithuba Holdings) really had four bites of the cherry, which I think many of the contesting bidders will find to be unconstitutional and unlawful.” Meanwhile, he also addresses the charge that the DA is “anti-transformation”, and shares the highlights of the party's submission on the R100-billion Transformation Fund. He also outlines the DA's alternative plan to BEE.

You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.” Okay but what was the plan here?

Hello Colorado Rapids fan! This week on Holding The High Line, it's a Rocky Mountain Cup sweep for the Burgundy Boys. Rabbi and Red banter about some non-Rapids Rivalry Week banter. Pat Noonan doesn't like Double Game Weeks. Mark Delgado is becoming the Pablo Mastroeni of El Trafico. Also, RIP Gadi Kinda. We briefly touch on the loss to San Diego FC. Who even cares given what came next? Then we talk all things Rocky Mountain Cup. Jackson Travis and Nico Hansen were excellent. Cole Bassett and Djordje Mihailović finally linked up. It was kind of a boring game. Real Salt Lake were poor, compounded by Diego Luna getting subbed off. What does that all say about the Rapids? Later, the Rapids Unified Team held on for a 0-0 draw against RSL Unified. Colin Underly, son of coach Molly and MLS Unified All-Star, stood on his head. We hear from the goalkeeper. We touch on R2 beating Real Monarchs with Kamani Stewart-Baynes scoring a PK down a man. Then we look ahead to Saturday's home match against a struggling St. Louis CITY. Here are the links to the Anthony Hudson and Pablo Mastroeni articles we mention.

In this JCO Article Insights episode, host Jospeh Mathew summaries Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Long-Term Outcomes of Adjuvant Therapy in the ESPAC4 Phase III Trial, by Palmer, et al published December 5, 2024. Transcript Joseph Matthew: Hello and welcome to the Journal of Clinical Oncology Article Insights. I'm your host, Joseph Matthew, and today we will be discussing the article "Long-Term Survival in Resected Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma with Adjuvant Gemcitabine plus Capecitabine Compared to Modified FOLFIRINOX from the ESPAC-4 and the PRODIGE 24 Trials" by Dr. Palmer et al. To summarize the relevant evidence, the ESPAC-4 was a European phase 3 multicenter randomized clinical trial published in 2017 comparing adjuvant gemcitabine and capecitabine (GemCap) with gemcitabine monotherapy following macroscopic margin-negative resections for operable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The trial had included non-metastatic patients aged 18 years or older, World Health Organization (WHO) performance scores of 2 or less, creatinine clearance of at least 50 mL/min, and a life expectancy of over three months who had not received any prior anticancer treatment. Patients who had undergone R2 resections were selectively excluded. Eligible participants were randomized 1:1 within 12 weeks of pancreatectomy to one of the two treatment arms, with chemotherapy initiated within two weeks from the date of randomization. The regimens involved six cycles, each lasting four weeks, for an overall duration of 24 weeks. In the monotherapy arm, gemcitabine dosed at 1 g/m² was given as an intravenous infusion once a week for three weeks, followed by one week off. In the GemCap arm, capecitabine dosed at 1660 mg/m² was added to gemcitabine, given daily for three weeks, followed by one week off. Patients were followed up every three months, with the primary endpoint being overall survival (OS). The study showed that at a median follow-up of 43.2 months, GemCap was associated with a significantly longer OS than gemcitabine alone. Subsequently, in 2018, the Phase 3 randomized PRODIGE 24 trial was conducted in centers across France and Canada, comparing adjuvant modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) with gemcitabine in a similar subset of patients with resected PDAC and reported longer OS with the mFOLFIRINOX regimen. This study, however, had more restrictive eligibility criteria when compared to ESPAC-4, including patients aged under 80 years, WHO performance status of 0 or 1, with no significant cardiovascular disease, and a postoperative serum CA 19-9 of less than 180 U/mL. There was hence a subset of ESPAC-4 patients who did not meet the eligibility criteria for mFOLFIRINOX as set by the PRODIGE 24. The present study was conducted to estimate the overall 5-year survival rates for patients of ESPAC-4 receiving GemCap and gemcitabine, further stratifying survival in either arm according to the status of the surgical margins (R status) and the resected nodes (N status), and also to investigate whether GemCap retained a survival benefit over gemcitabine in PRODIGE 24-ineligible patients. A total of 732 patients, evenly distributed between both arms, were followed up for a median period of 104 months. Adjuvant GemCap was found to retain its survival advantage over gemcitabine, with a significantly longer median OS of 31.6 months when compared to 28.4 months with gemcitabine alone. Further subgroup analysis was performed with reference to the resection margins and the nodal status. As a reminder, in the ESPAC-4 trial, 60% of patients were found to have microscopically positive margins (an R1 resection), and 80% were node-positive. The difference in survival was greater in patients undergoing microscopic margin-negative resections (R0) who experienced a median OS of 49.9 months with GemCap when compared to 32.2 months with gemcitabine. Node-negative patients also had a significantly greater 5-year OS rate with GemCap of 59% versus 53% with gemcitabine monotherapy. However, it is important to note that no significant difference in survival outcomes was observed in margin-positive (R1) or node-positive patients in the two arms. The investigators also evaluated GemCap in the subgroup of 193 patients (comprising 26.4% of the ESPAC-4 cohort) who were not considered to have met the eligibility criteria for PRODIGE 24. The survival benefit of combination therapy was retained in this group, with patients receiving GemCap experiencing a median survival of 25.9 months compared to 20.7 months with adjuvant gemcitabine. Although cross-trial comparisons have limited validity, good agreement was noted in adverse grade 3 or greater toxicity associated with the control gemcitabine arms of ESPAC-4 and PRODIGE 24, serving as the basis for a qualitative comparison of toxicities between mFOLFIRINOX and GemCap. Neutropenia was more prevalent in the GemCap arm, affecting 40.8% of patients compared to 28.4% with mFOLFIRINOX. However, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) was administered to 62.2% of patients in PRODIGE 24. Palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE) was also more prevalent with GemCap. Patients on mFOLFIRINOX were more likely to observe grade 3 or greater fatigue, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, sensory peripheral neuropathy, and paresthesias. The investigators concluded that GemCap was the standard adjuvant treatment for patients with PDAC undergoing an upfront resection who were not feasible for mFOLFIRINOX. Further exploratory analysis revealed that patients under the age of 70 who had undergone a microscopic margin-negative (R0) resection for node-negative PDAC were likely to derive an OS benefit from the addition of capecitabine to gemcitabine in the adjuvant setting. In contrast, mFOLFIRINOX would be more effective than gemcitabine in patients with positive margins (R1) or involved nodes, as per the PRODIGE 24 trial.

The HIMSS Global Conference brings together healthcare professionals, technology providers, and industry leaders to discuss the most pressing challenges in healthcare. One of the key conversations this year focused on security, risk management, and the role of HITRUST in ensuring trust across the healthcare ecosystem.HITRUST's Expanding Role in Healthcare SecurityRyan Patrick, VP of Adoption at HITRUST, joined the discussion to share insights from the conference floor. One of the most striking takeaways was the sheer scale of engagement—attendance at HIMSS was at an all-time high, reflecting a growing focus on healthcare security and compliance. Organizations across the industry are looking for solutions that support innovation while maintaining security, and HITRUST is at the center of those conversations.A common misconception about HITRUST is that it only provides a single, rigorous cybersecurity assessment. Patrick clarified that HITRUST now offers a tiered approach, including the E1 (entry-level), I1 (intermediate), and R2 (comprehensive) assessments, allowing organizations to align their security and compliance efforts with their level of maturity. The E1 assessment, in particular, has gained rapid adoption as organizations look for a scalable way to demonstrate security and compliance without the complexity of a full certification process.The Role of HITRUST in Third-Party Risk ManagementWith interoperability becoming a priority in healthcare, third-party risk management is a growing concern. Many healthcare organizations work with hundreds—if not thousands—of vendors, and ensuring security across this extended network is critical. Patrick emphasized that HITRUST is not just a cybersecurity framework but a tool for managing third-party risk at scale. HITRUST assessments provide structured, standardized data that can be integrated into risk management platforms, allowing organizations to evaluate their vendors with greater efficiency and confidence.As discussions around security and compliance continue, Patrick encourages healthcare organizations to educate themselves on the full range of HITRUST offerings. Whether an organization is starting its security journey or looking to optimize third-party risk management, HITRUST provides a structured path to achieving trust and resilience.Learn more about HITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitwebNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Ryan Patrick, Vice President of Adoption at HITRUST | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-patrick-3699117a/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine:  https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode's SponsorsLearn more and catch more stories from HITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from HIMSS 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/himss-2025-health-technology-and-cybersecurity-event-coverage-las-vegasHITRUST 2025 Trust Report: https://itspm.ag/hitrusz49c____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/on-locationTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?
