Interview with Justin van der Toorn , CEO of Greenheart GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/greenheart-gold-tsxvghrt-advancing-multi-project-portfolio-7557Recording date: 10th September 2025Greenheart Gold is an emerging junior gold explorer with a robust management pedigree, led by CEO Justin van der Toorn whose success at Reunion Gold lends credibility to the company's strategic approach. The company operates five greenfield gold projects in the highly prospective Guyana Shield region—two in Guyana and three in Suriname—deliberately focusing on unexplored targets. Rigorous evaluation and financial discipline underpin their model, with each project subjected to a systematic 9-12 month process to reach a drill decision, and non-viable assets quickly dropped.Currently, Greenheart has active drilling at the Tamakay project in Guyana and the Majorodam project in Suriname. Early drilling at Majorodam delivered intersections including 30 meters at 2 grams per tonne gold, supported by strong infrastructure benefits such as proximity to paved roads and established mills, which help lower operating costs and development thresholds. At Tamakay, the program targets high-grade quartz veins previously mined by local artisanal miners, further highlighting the region's potential.Justin van der Toorn emphasizes the importance of an honest, data-driven approach, stating, “At the end of the day, it's exploration. You have to play a little bit of a numbers game here and make sure that you've got more than one egg in a basket,” reflecting the company's commitment to portfolio diversification and rigorous technical standards.Well-capitalized and backed by a supportive institutional shareholder base, Greenheart Gold is positioned to advance its pipeline without the immediate need for further fundraising. With a disciplined capital allocation strategy and a clear focus on advancing only the most promising opportunities, Greenheart is set to deliver value through near-term drilling results and multiple discovery pathways within a world-class geological province. These factors, combined with favorable macroeconomic conditions for gold and the underexplored nature of the Guyana Shield, create a compelling case for investors.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/greenheart-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Nick shares his extensive experience across the UK and international litigation finance landscape, highlighting the industry's foundational purpose: enabling access to justice for those who otherwise could not afford to pursue valid claims. The conversation covers the broad spectrum of litigation finance, from consumer funding and law firm lending to high-stakes commercial disputes, and the stringent underwriting processes that ensure careful risk management.The discussion compares the UK and US legal systems, exploring the impact of adverse cost rules in the UK versus juries and nuclear verdicts in the US.

Listeners gain balanced perspectives on litigation finance's role as a driver of fairness and disruption within the legal and insurance landscapes.Key Takeaways:Litigation finance began as a vehicle for access to justice.Multiple types exist: consumer, law firm, and commercial funding.Rigorous due diligence leads to funding very few cases.UK's “loser pays” deters frivolous lawsuits, unlike US approach.Arizona's disclosure rule promotes funding transparency.Litigation finance in US is a small but growing industry.AI and tech play increasing roles in deal sourcing and assessment.Collaboration with insurers aligns interests.Litigation finance can facilitate fairer outcomes and longer negotiations.Transparency and regulation are essential for credibility.Social and legal differences affect litigation finance globally.Legal technology promises further evolution.Challenges remain regarding lawsuit inflation and insurance impacts.Episode Chapters:00:00 Intro & sponsor message05:00 Origins and purposes of litigation finance15:00 Types of funding and underwriting approach25:00 UK vs US legal system differences35:00 Arizona's funding disclosure and regulation trends45:00 Technology & AI in litigation finance55:00 Case examples and insurance ecosystem effects65:00 Social influences & nuclear verdict concerns75:00 Closing thoughts & outroConnect with RiskCellar:Website: https://www.riskcellar.com/Guest: Nick Rowles-DaviesLexolent Website: https://www.lexolent.com/nick-rowles-daviesNick Rowles-Davies LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-rowles-davies/ Brandon Schuh:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61552710523314LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandon-stephen-schuh/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/schuhpapa/Nick Hartmann:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickjhartmann/
ABA Business Leaders Podcast – Episode: “ABA Hotline & Community Questions!In this episode of the ABA Business Leaders Podcast, hosts Stephen and April Smith discuss the launch of a new hotline ((737) 330-1432) for listeners to ask questions about running ABA practices. They dive into the most common concerns facing ABA business owners, including insurance claims, rate negotiation, cancellation policies, and the challenges of scheduling and hiring staff.

With record levels of armed conflict around the world in recent years, the study of conflict has gone from being a niche corner of economics into a thriving discipline that learns from, and interacts with, development economics. Rigorous empirical research on conflict is, however, relatively recent. The Reducing Conflict and Improving Performance in the Economy (ReCIPE) programme aims to provide a better understanding of the links between conflicts, economic growth, and public policies. this week we speak to Dominic Rohner (Geneva Graduate Institute), the Research Director of the programme, and Oliver Vanden Eynde (Paris School of Economics), the Head of Engagement about their new research that attempts to link the attributes of countries to the types of conflict they experience, how economic methods can advance our knowledge of conflict and the policies to reduce it, and what the work of ReCIPE can do to influence policy around conflict and development.

Ready to take your law firm to the next level? This high-energy episode with Charley Mann, founder of Law Firm Alchemy, reveals the marketing and mindset shifts that separate thriving firms from struggling ones.From mastering referral marketing and crafting irresistible social media ads to avoiding SEO pitfalls and adopting a true CEO mindset, Sam Mollaei and Charley deliver strategies you can implement immediately. This isn't just inspiration—it's your roadmap to building a firm that thrives on trust, innovation, and unparalleled client service.Your next level is waiting. Tune in, take notes, and get ready to lead your law firm to success. Let's dive in!Key Takeaways from Sam and Charley:1. Referral Marketing as a Cornerstone for Law FirmsReferral marketing remains the most reliable strategy for law firms, especially in consumer-focused areas.It requires consistent relationship-building through personalized outreach, making a well-maintained contact list indispensable.2. Effectiveness of Social Media AdsSocial media ads on platforms like Meta, TikTok, and YouTube yield high ROI with precise targeting and clear messaging.Rigorous testing of lead forms and ad copy ensures better lead quality and optimized results.3. Pitfalls in SEO and Digital MarketingSEO often provides poor ROI compared to strategies like increasing client reviews or running ads.Law firms must own their digital assets, such as Google Analytics and websites, to retain control and ensure transparency.4. Consistency and Specialization in MarketingFocused efforts, like weekly emails and newsletters, build trust and keep firms top of mind.Mastering one platform or strategy before expanding helps maximize results and prevents inefficiency.5. Mindset for Success in Law Firm GrowthAn entrepreneurial mindset built on openness and adaptability is key to growth.By embracing challenges and staying consistent, successful law firm owners unlock both traditional and innovative opportunities. "When you go through the motion and start sharing [your ideas and knowledge] with the world, you enjoy it. You enjoy the process. Also, you level up when it comes to those fields, and it acts as a daily affirmation [and keeps you top of mind for your audience]." — Sam Mollaei"There is no actual gatekeeper. It is entirely incumbent on you to say, 'I'm allowed to control my future...to communicate with people...to market myself...to provide a level of quality in my services [that seems of an absurd degree of value].' You get to make all those choices." — Charley MannGet in touch with Charley Mann:Website: https://www.lawfirmalchemy.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charleymann/

OA1184 - The saying pretty explicitly tells us to don't, and yet here they are not don'ting. This week on Rapid Response Friday: why is a Texas lawmaker filing a habeas petition asking a federal court to release her from the state capitol building? What's the deal with redistricting, and is Texas's plan to tip the balance in the U.S. House of Representatives actually legal? Jenessa brings her voting rights expertise to explain why this plan is so bad that state Democratic leaders had to go on the lam on threat of arrest to try to stop it. We then briefly discuss the import of Attorney General Pam Bondi pulling back from her attempt to take over DC's entire police force before Matt takes on a couple of little-noticed immigration policy memos in which the Trump administration has given itself dangerously broad new powers to determine things like an immigrant's “good moral character” and “anti-American” activities and associations. Finally in today's footnote: it's Columbia-on-Columbia violence as the West Coast sportswear company goes to war with the East Coast Ivy League university over some IP nonsense which gives Matt yet another excuse to be correct about fonts. Texas state representative Nicole Collier's habeas petition (filed 8/19/25) “Restoring a Rigorous, Holistic, and Comprehensive Good Moral Character Evaluation Standard for Aliens Applying for Naturalization,” USCIS (8/15/25) “Clarifying Discretionary Factors in Certain Immigration Benefit Requests,” USCIS (8/19/25) Columbia Sportswear v.

From Plato and Derrida to anti-aging treatments, cryogenics, cloning, and whole-brain uploads, the dream of indefinite life is technological and, as Adam Rosenthal shows in Prosthetic Immortalities: a matter of prosthesis, the transformation of the original being. There can be no certainty of immortality and yet, the problem of immortality continues to haunt the soul. Rosenthal engages David Wills and Deborah Goldgaber in a conversation that touches on philosophy, transhumanism, biopolitics, Dolly the sheep and the return of the dire wolf, what it means to extend life or, ultimately, to extend death.Adam R. Rosenthal is associate professor of French and global studies at Texas A&M University. Rosenthal is author of Prosthetic Immortalities: Biology, Transhumanism, and the Search for Indefinite Life and Poetics and the Gift: Reading Poetry from Homer to Derrida.David Wills is professor of French studies at Brown University and author of Prosthesis. Deborah Goldgaber is assistant professor of philosophy at Louisiana State University and author of Speculative Grammatology: Deconstruction and the New Materialism.REFERENCES:Plato HomerDescartesHeidegger (the Dasein)DerridaGeoffrey HintonHegelNick BostrumDolly the sheepDavid ChalmersAubrey de GreyJean-Baptiste LamarckPraise for the book:“Rigorous, compelling, and beautifully written, Prosthetic Immortalities is at the vanguard of the new wave in Derrida studies.”—Nicole Anderson, founding editor, Derrida Today Journal“Adam R. Rosenthal conjures up the ghosts of metaphysics that return today through the promises of indefinite life from medical science and transhumanist speculations, moving brilliantly between science and science fiction.”—Francesco Vitale, author of Biodeconstruction: Jacques Derrida and the Life SciencesProsthetic Immortalities: Biology, Transhumanism, and the Search for Indefinite Life by Adam R.

In this episode I am joined by Ani Pema, an American nun in the Tibetan Buddhist religion and former swami in the Siddha Yoga organisation. Ani Pema recalls her childhood in Boise Idaho, her high flying career in fashion working for Vogue magazine, and how dissatisfaction with the American dream set her on a spiritual search. Ani Pema details her sixteen years of close discipleship and ordination under the renowned Siddha Yoga guru Swami Muktananda, her transformative encounters with the 16th Karmapa, and her subsequent discipleship under Tibetan Buddhist teachers such as Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche and Namkhai Nyingpo.

Have you actually looked back at your long-term cases to see how layering compares to injection moulding? Is traditional freehand layering still your go-to for anterior composite aesthetics? Are you using it because it gives the best result — or just because that's how you were trained? In this episode, Dr. Marco Maiolino joins Jaz Gulati for a meaty discussion about injection moulding—a technique that's changing the game in anterior composites (and posterior!) This isn't about trends. It's about clinical outcomes. We've all admired the beauty of layered composites—translucency, halo, the “natural” look. But after 5, 7, or even 10 years... do they hold up? Dr. Maiolino brings over a decade of follow-up data—and the results might surprise you. https://youtu.be/wHs8QQkgPhU Watch PDP228 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl When in doubt between two shades (e.g., A1 vs. A2), always choose the lighter shade. Higher-value shades blend better and result in higher patient satisfaction. Techniques: Use the composite button method and black-and-white photography to objectively evaluate shade blending. Outcome: Lighter shades minimize the risk of patient dissatisfaction and rework.
In this insightful discussion, Shelley Howard interviews Sean Ivester, founder of Pivot Tutors, about the evolving landscape of college entrance testing and effective test preparation strategies. Sean explains that test prep timing depends largely on the student's academic standing and course progression. He advises parents to avoid overlapping SAT/ACT prep with heavy academic periods like finals or AP exams to protect students' GPA, which remains crucial. The conversation highlights that successful test prep is not about cramming but a focused, diagnostic approach to target and strengthen weaknesses. Sean emphasizes the importance of a diagnostic test as the first step for understanding a student's readiness. He distinguishes the SAT and ACT, outlining their structure, differences, and upcoming changes—for example, the ACT's shortening and optional science section—helping families choose the right test. Sean also addresses the common challenge faced by high-performing students who still struggle initially on standardized tests, clarifying that knowing the material is different from “beating the test,” which requires specific strategies and fresh familiarity with foundational concepts. The conversation covers the pros and cons of various prep methods like apps, AI tools, and tutors, underscoring the critical role of accountability, motivation, and personalized instruction. Sean describes Pivot Tutors' unique approach of pairing students with specialized math and English tutors who are vetted, trained, and seasoned professionals, ensuring high-quality instruction catering to students' needs. The dialogue concludes with practical advice for parents: start early, use diagnostic testing to guide prep plans, and understand that sustained, focused prep yields the best outcomes. Sean stresses that test prep skills are transferable and beneficial well beyond college admission, supporting future academic and professional testing challenges.Highlights• Timing for test prep depends on student's course level and academic load—avoid overlap with finals/AP exams• Diagnostic tests are essential first steps to identify strengths, weaknesses, and guide prep focus• Effective prep targets weak areas instead of broadly reviewing all content to maximize score improvements• SAT is shorter and more complex reasoning-based; ACT is longer with broader math content and a fast pace, soon to be shorter and less time-pressured• High-achieving students often initially underperform on tests due to different test-taking skills needed• Personalized tutoring with specialized math and English tutors enhances accountability, motivation, and progress• Starting test prep early (end of sophomore year or early junior year) allows more flexibility and reduces panicKey Insights• Diagnostic Testing as a Starting Point: Sean underscores that a comprehensive diagnostic test reveals a student's starting point, exposing specific skill gaps and careless errors. This transforms test prep from a guessing game to a data-driven, strategic process, helping families decide when to start prep and which areas demand focus. Without this analysis, students risk inefficient study habits, wasting time and effort on content they already know or missing critical weak spots.• Timing and Academic Intensity Matter: Junior year is typically the most demanding academically, so scheduling test prep during summer or early fall yields better focus and outcomes. Families should avoid final seasons or AP exam periods for test prep to prevent academic overload, preserving GPA and mitigating burnout. This tailored timing recognizes student stress patterns and optimizes study efficiency.• Focused Practice Over Broad Content Review: The most effective way to improve standardized test scores is targeted practice on weak areas identified by diagnostic testing. Merely continuing to practice whole tests leads to plateauing scores. Instead, the cycle of focused drills, review, and retesting enables students to solidify understanding and see measurable gains. This approach shifts prep from volume-based to precision-based, enhancing motivation and confidence.• Choosing Between SAT and ACT Requires Individual Evaluation: No test suits everyone; SAT and ACT differ in length, pacing, question style, and focus areas. For example, the SAT involves complex reasoning and is slightly shorter, while the ACT covers broader math content with faster pacing. Upcoming changes, like the ACT's optional science section and shorter length, further complicate the choice. Therefore, Sean advises students to take practice tests for both and compare scores—avoiding decisions based on hearsay or anecdotal evidence.• Test Scores Reflect Test-Taking Skills, Not Just Intelligence: Top academic performers can score below expectations initially because standardized tests require specialized strategies distinct from classroom learning. Some fundamental concepts tested might have been learned long ago and need refreshing. Effective test prep rebuilds these foundations and teaches "how to beat the test," focusing on timing, question interpretation, and pacing rather than pure intellect.• Accountability and Personalized Instruction are Game-Changers: The challenges of self-motivation and competing academic priorities mean many students struggle to commit regular prep time independently. Professional tutors provide structure, coaching, and encouragement. Pivot Tutors' model of assigning two specialized tutors—one for math, one for English—ensures that students get subject-specific expertise and tailored lesson plans. Rigorous vetting and continuous training of tutors guarantee high teaching quality and effective communication.• Early Planning Eases Stress and Opens Doors: Starting the test prep planning at the end of sophomore year provides ample time for assessment, practice, and adjustment. It avoids the “frantic” last-minute rush many rising seniors experience. Early prep offers the flexibility to try multiple test dates and strategies, increasing chances of reaching target scores and keeping options open for college admissions and scholarships.• Test Prep Skills Provide Long-Term Benefits: Beyond college admissions, mastering standardized testing techniques develops critical thinking, problem solving, and test endurance skills essential for future academic tests like the LSAT, MCAT, or MBA entrance exams. Early investment in effective test prep equips students with lifelong skills to navigate competitive exams and professional challenges.• Navigating Prep Tools: Apps and AI vs. Human Tutors: While online tools and AI like ChatGPT offer convenience, Sean highlights their limitations due to lack of accountability, motivation, and nuanced, personalized feedback. Human tutors facilitate adaptive learning, real-time interaction, and emotional support, which are often crucial to overcome motivational roadblocks and plateaus. Families must weigh student personality and discipline when choosing prep methods.• Tutor Selection and Training Reflect Company Quality: Pivot Tutors' rigorous hiring includes academic degree requirements, high proficiency test scores, and in-person mock tutoring evaluations. This multi-tiered vetting ensures tutors are not only knowledgeable but excellent communicators who can simplify complex concepts. Shadowing experienced tutors and ongoing training help maintain consistent, student-centered pedagogy that respects students' time and academic pressure.• Iterative Process of Testing and Retesting: Sean emphasizes that improvement comes from cycles of testing, reflection, and focused practice—not one-off studying. Continuous assessment allows students and tutors to track progress, refine strategies, and build confidence. This iterative process contrasts sharply with less effective “all content at once” study methods.• Parental Support is Crucial but Must Balance Pressure: Parents play a vital role in encouraging the right preparation habits while avoiding overwhelming their teens. Educating parents about strategic prep planning, early diagnostic testing, and the reality of test demands empowers them to guide their children calmly and effectively, minimizing stress.This interview offers a comprehensive roadmap for families navigating the changing test prep landscape, emphasizing strategic timing, targeted study, professional guidance, and early planning for long-term benefits. and effective communication.Early Planning Eases Stress and Opens Doors: Starting the test prep planning at the end of sophomore year provides ample time for assessment, practice, and adjustment.

Factory fires, chemical explosions, and aerial pollutants have inexorably shaped South Baltimore into one of the most polluted places in the country. In Futures After Progress: Hope and Doubt in Late Industrial Baltimore (U Chicago Press, 2024), anthropologist Chloe Ahmann explores the rise and fall of industrial lifeways on this edge of the city and the uncertainties that linger in their wake. Writing from the community of Curtis Bay, where two hundred years of technocratic hubris have carried lethal costs, Ahmann also follows local efforts to realize a good future after industry and the rifts competing visions opened between neighbors. Examining tensions between White and Black residents, environmental activists and industrial enthusiasts, local elders and younger generations, Ahmann shows how this community has become a battleground for competing political futures whose stakes reverberate beyond its six square miles in a present after progress has lost steam. And yet—as one young resident explains — “that's not how the story ends.” Rigorous and moving, Futures after Progress probes the deep roots of our ecological predicament, offering insight into what lies ahead for a country beset by dreams deferred and a planet on the precipice of change.

Writing from the community of Curtis Bay, where two hundred years of technocratic hubris have carried lethal costs, Ahmann also follows local efforts to realize a good future after industry and the rifts competing visions opened between neighbors. Examining tensions between White and Black residents, environmental activists and industrial enthusiasts, local elders and younger generations, Ahmann shows how this community has become a battleground for competing political futures whose stakes reverberate beyond its six square miles in a present after progress has lost steam. And yet—as one young resident explains — “that's not how the story ends.” Rigorous and moving, Futures after Progress probes the deep roots of our ecological predicament, offering insight into what lies ahead for a country beset by dreams deferred and a planet on the precipice of change. Futures after Progress is available in Open Access here.Mentioned in this episode: Ahmann, Chloe and Anand Pandian. 2024. “The Fight Against Incineration is a Chance to Right Historic Wrongs.” Baltimore Beat, June 26.

Building an art career with intention doesn't always start with a plan. Sometimes it starts with a gut feeling that something isn't working. That was true for Noelle Phares, who left behind a structured science career to follow her creative instincts—eventually leading to a solo museum exhibition and a thriving, self-directed art business. In this episode (part 1 of 2), host Alyson Stanfield talks to Noelle about how she transitioned from environmental data science into full-time painting, and how her rigorous research background continues to shape her studio practice. The conversation centers around 2024 solo show Tracking Time at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art—how it came together, what she learned from the proposal process, and why she approaches every exhibition as a fully developed project. She also shares her mindset around selling art, connecting with collectors, and painting for impact. This conversation is rich with insight about: Leaving a traditional career to follow a creative calling. The research process behind Tracking Time and why Noelle selected 7 distinct locations along the Colorado River. Working with museums and curators while maintaining your artistic voice. Designing exhibitions that tell cohesive, layered stories. Balancing environmental messaging with visual beauty to draw people in. Creating work that connects with buyers and retains meaning. Noelle's blend of structure, vision, and heart makes this an inspiring listen for any artist seeking to step into a more intentional, expansive chapter. Stay tuned for part 2, where we'll dive into how she structures her business, manages a team, markets her work, and approaches gallery relationships.
Game streamers and live commentators are producing increasingly comprehensive analyses of gameplay, yet scholarship still tends to flatten the experiential media of video games into text for close reading. By shifting focus toward the immersiveness of video games, Playthrough Poetics: Gameplay as Research Method (Amherst, 2024) makes the case for gameplay as a necessary, alternate method. Contributors to this volume engage widely with the activity of play through autoethnographies, meta-analyses of self-broadcasting, new procedural methods like gamespace soundwalking, as well as the affective aspects of games research. In doing so, they model new possibilities for academic players and gamers alike. Rigorous scholarship meets cultural practice in this innovative, multi-modal edited collection that includes video essays and offers transcripts of the playthroughs themselves. Readers (and viewers) will come away with a toolkit of models, case studies, and conceptual frameworks for analyzing video games through gameplay. This volume is a fresh return to the joy of play: the poetics of games as contemporary forms of storytelling and interactivity. With contributions from Ashlee Bird, Brandon Blackburn, Milena Droumeva, Kishonna Gray, Robyn Hope, Ben Scholl, Maria Sommers, Ashlyn Sparrow, Christine Tran, and Aaron Trammell. Rudolf Thomas Inderst (*1978) enjoys video games since 1985. He received a master's degree in political science, American cultural studies as well as contemporary and recent history from Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich and holds two PhDs in game studies (LMU & University of Passau). Currently, he's teaching as a professor for game design at the IU International University for Applied Science, has submitted his third dissertation at the University of Vechta, holds the position as lead editor at the online journal Titel kulturmagazin for the game section, hosts the German local radio show Replay Value and is editor of the weekly game research newsletter DiGRA D-A-CH Game Studies Watchlist.

This episode features an interview with Gaurav Agarwal, COO and Revenue Leader at ClickUp, an all-in-one productivity platform that replaces all individual workplace productivity tools with a single, unified platform. Gaurav shares his thoughts on keeping your content strategy relevant and the iteration and testing needed to go viral. He also discusses maintaining a blend of B2B and B2C tactics to achieve scalable success.Key Takeaways:Content strategy and going viral is much more about consistency and iteration than it is about the spark of one amazing ideas. Rigorous and experimentation leads to long-term ROI. To stay relevant in marketing, you have to keep up to date on generational trends and new formats of reaching people. You can't get comfortable being a great marketer in an outdate channel. You have to keep bets in your portfolio that have an asymmetric upside, which you can only do if you are willing to take on a certain amount of risk. Don't get too excited about immediate ROI. Quote: A huge part of perfecting craft is you want to stay relevant. I know amazing marketers who are gods of Facebook and building viral content on Facebook. And they fought the short form vertical video format with TikTok so much. They looked down upon it because they thought that this is cringy, this is shot on an iPhone. And I'm like, why are you doing this to yourself? Like, do you not want to be culturally relevant in the next decade? So, a huge part of a great team is staying hungry and not thinking that you've arrived because content, media, consumer preferences, even software is a generational business. You have to stay on with the formats of what the future is and keep moving towards that direction versus be so happy that I'm this amazing marketer on Facebook. Dude, like your time is up. Facebook pages don't get any distribution anymore.
