A brilliant song that couldn't have been anything else with the level of talent behind it, and a cover that probably took its job a little too seriously. Tell Me Something Good, originally by Rufus, covered by Pink.  Outro music is Livin' On A Prayer by Bon Jovi, and you can totally hear that thing we talk about in the episode. It's unmistakeable. 

On Black Friday, Amazon sessions that resulted in a sale were up 100% in the U.S. when the AI chatbot Rufus was used. They only increased by 20% when Rufus wasn't used. Also, James Cameron's movies are often at the cutting edge of visual effects technology, but that doesn't make him a fan of generative AI. Learn more about your ad choices.

Why Your Affiliate Style Images Might Be Killing Your Amazon Business In just 10 minutes, I'll challenge most of what you believe—and show you why the opposite might be true. Watch to the end for 99 scroll-stopping techniques from the world's top three product photographers. Watch here on YouTube for the full experience.    "Pretty doesn't convert." - Affiliate Marketers What happens when hammer-and-nail marketing doesn't work? Everyone's favourite dog, Rufus, seems to have a different opinion when it comes to images and stopping the scroll. Text on Images Cluttered images make your brand appear unprofessional or cheap. Impact of busy images: Too many elements distract from the product. Visual focus and clarity: Eliminates distractions, letting customers focus on your product. Pattern interrupt: Stops the scroll. Reduced cognitive load: Easy for customers to process and understand. Professional aesthetic: Clean layouts convey luxury and quality. The Paradox of Dense Images Information overload: Excessive visual details cause faster scrolling. Cognitive fatigue: Complex images demand more mental effort, prompting quick dismissal. Lost focus: When everything competes, nothing stands out. What Actually Stops the Scroll? Clean contrast: Single element against clean background. Less-is-more: Pattern break through simplicity. Simple images stand out in cluttered feeds. The most effective scroll-stoppers are the cleanest, most focused images. The Low-Price Paradox Trust barrier: Customers are naturally sceptical of cheap products. Poor images confirm their worst fears. The Outliers Outliers are statistically insignificant compared to what drives success. The 99% reality: 97% of customers respond positively to clean, well-lit, professional images. Cherry Picking and Moonshots Avoid cherry-picking outliers as universal truths. If so, everyone would have proven strategies and no failed products. Why Outliers Get Disproportionate Attention Survival bias: We notice the 1% that succeed unusually, not the 99% that fail. Marketing case studies: Unusual success stories are interesting. Confirmation bias: People remember exceptions that validate rule-breaking. Also in the video: 99 techniques for stopping the scroll, by three of the world's best, working with multi-million-dollar and billion-dollar brands. 99 image principles used by three of the world's top product photographers: Peter Belanger - Apple's product photographer since 2007 Tim Tadder - Nike, Adidas, and NFL campaign photographer Jonathan Knowles - Coca-Cola, Guinness, and major beverage brands As a thank you for everything this industry has given me over the past decade, DesignLoop is my gift to you. No subscriptions—just add your API keys and you're ready to compete with major brands with innovative images and video. No one ever stopped the scroll by imitation. It's time to get back to winning.

If you've ever stared at a “competition worthy” image and thought, “Is this actually any good, or am I just emotionally attached and mildly delusional?” then this episode is for you. In this one, I'm lifting the lid on what really happens inside a judge's head when your prints hit the panel: the mindset you need, the mistakes we see over and over again, and the tiny details that can quietly kill an otherwise beautiful image. We'll talk blown highlights, grubby greys, over sharpening, dodgy mounts, vignettes turned up to eleven, and why blindly following the latest photo trend might actually sink your chances. We'll also get into mentors, titles, paper choice, time pressure (my personal kryptonite), and why the only real failure in competitions is not to enter at all. If you're thinking about qualifications, print comps or you just want to finish your images to a higher standard, grab a drink, have a listen, and then go and do something brave with your work. Links from this episode Workshops & mentoring: Come and spend a day (or more) with us at the studio, learning lighting, posing, dogs, families, workflow and everything in between.

Rev. Rufus Smith continues our sermon "Prophesee: Visions of the Coming Savior" taking us to the time of Moses, explaining the difference between Jesus' spiritual government, Moses' physical government, and what that means for us as stewards of the kingdom of Heaven.

We walk through Romans 16 and discover why a list of names reveals the beating heart of the church: a family formed by Jesus, gathered in homes and across classes, where every story and gift matters and shows why showing up still changes lives. We honor Phoebe, Priscilla and Aquila, Andronicus and Junia, Rufus, and many others as living proof that God turns strangers into family and service into joy.• why gathering matters beyond streaming• Phoebe's trusted leadership and teaching role• Priscilla and Aquila's costly hospitality and courage• firstfruits in Asia and the spread of the gospel• Andronicus and Junia's witness and suffering• approved through trials and faithfulness under pressure• households tied to power alongside slaves and former slaves• Rufus and the cross-bearer legacy• every testimony as resurrection, not comparison• all hands on deck, all worthy of honor, all welcomed as familyIf you don't have a church home this morning and you want to come be a part of this church family, I want you to know you will be welcomed as familyIf you don't know Jesus Christ personally, and this morning you say, I want to know that I know that he died for me, that he forgives my sins, you can come to know Christ even now, and you will be welcomed as family

In this episode, let's talk about how AI is transforming Amazon selling, from product research and listings to ads, Rufus optimization, and TikTok Shop growth.

Brad and David close out another week Yesterday was a repeat interview The Big Blue Bash at Mar-a-Lago Golf Talk Article by Vicki Sykes ------------------ Mark 15:6-21 (ESV) Pilate Delivers Jesus to Be Crucified 6 Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked. 7 And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas. 8 And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them. 9 And he answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead. 12 And Pilate again said to them, “Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?” 13 And they cried out again, “Crucify him.” 14 And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him.” 15 So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified. Jesus Is Mocked 16 And the soldiers led him away inside the palace (that is, the governor's headquarters), and they called together the whole battalion. 17 And they clothed him in a purple cloak, and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on him. 18 And they began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 And they were striking his head with a reed and spitting on him and kneeling down in homage to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him. And they led him out to crucify him. The Crucifixion 21 And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross. __________________ 5 Core Values of SWAT 1.

Nuestra “Nube de Testigos”Cuando y era un sacerdote de apenas veintisiete años traje la Santa Comunión a Quintín Nieves. Quintín fue un hombre pobre que vivía en un Campo. Antes y después de yo orar con Quintín y darle el Cuerpo de Cristo, la Santa Comunión Quintín me dio muchos consejos. Me aconsejaba seguir puro y orar mucho. Tocó algo para mi con su pequeño mandolín. Quintín era una de muchas personas que Dios puso en mi vida para ayudarme crecer en la fe, la esperanza y a caridad como buen sacerdote Redentorista. Quintín para mí para este ya joven Padre Martín era uno de los que San Pablo llama mi nube de testigos. Quiere decir esto que Quintín para mí fue un instrumento de Dios para acercarme mas al corazón de Jesús.  Esto fue el motivo de yo leer ese trozo de la carta de San Pablo a los Romanos. Porque Pablo nombra y saluda nueve personas que fueron personas que le ayudaron vivir y predicar la fe en Jesús: en a Prisca y a Aquila, Epéneto, María, Andrónico y a Junías, Ampliato, Eustaquio. Entonces Tercio que escribía la carta, Tercio saluda y nombra otros ocho personas Stachys, Apelles, la familia de Aristóbulo.,Herodion. La familia de Narcisso.  Tryphaena , Persis,  y Rufus,* A lo mejor tú que oye mis palabras tienes, al igual que yo, varias personas como era para mi Quintín Nieves allá en aquella loma dando me consejos que me han ayudado perseverar como hijo de Dios, como amado de Jesús y de nuestra madre común María. Les invito a que durante el día de hoy vayas pensando en todas las personas que te ayudan conocer, amar y seguir a Jesús vivir mejor su mensaje de esperanza. Dale gracias por tus propia nube de testigos.Si me quieren enviar comentarios:tdeely7352@hotmail.com

Rufus Wainwright is a singer-songwriter and composer renowned for his distinctive voice and the theatricality of his performances. Born into a family of folk musicians, his mother was Kate McGarrigle and his father is the songwriter Loudon Wainwright III. Since his debut in 1998, his 11 studio albums have been characterised by their candid autobiographical themes, with songs about addiction, sexuality and fraught family dynamics. He has also worked as a classical composer, with his operas Prima Donna and Hadrian, and a choral piece called Dream Requiem. As a performer he has created musical tributes to Judy Garland, Shakespeare's Sonnets, the songs of Kurt Weill, and most recently has staged symphonic versions of his much-loved Want albums.Rufus Wainwright tells John Wilson about his earliest musical experiences, singing with his mother and aunties in Montreal, Canada where he spent his early years. He chooses The Wizard Of Oz as one of his formative creative influences and explains why the film's star, Judy Garland, became such an important musical role model for him. Rufus reveals how hearing Verdi's Requiem at the age of 13 led to a lifelong love of opera and an aspiration to write classical compositions. He also recalls the impact that seeing La Dolce Vita, director Federico Fellini's masterpiece about wealth and decadence in 1960s Rome, had on him as a teenager. Producer: Edwina Pitman

Moritz soll den Tiger von Frau Munk füttern. Aber das ist lebensgefährlich! Denn die Monster-Katze ist nicht nur gigantisch groß, sondern auch verrückt. Was, wenn sie Moritz auffrisst? Wenn das mal keine echte Mutprobe ist! (Von Silke Wolfrum mit Rufus Beck)

Brad and Craig bring on a Wednesday Happy Birthday to Brad's father who turns 90 today. Election Day Yesterday. A sad day. Unpacking a statement read by Brad New York Mayor ------------------ Mark 15:6-21 (ESV) Pilate Delivers Jesus to Be Crucified 6 Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked. 7 And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas. 8 And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them. 9 And he answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead. 12 And Pilate again said to them, “Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?” 13 And they cried out again, “Crucify him.” 14 And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him.” 15 So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified. Jesus Is Mocked 16 And the soldiers led him away inside the palace (that is, the governor's headquarters), and they called together the whole battalion. 17 And they clothed him in a purple cloak, and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on him. 18 And they began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 And they were striking his head with a reed and spitting on him and kneeling down in homage to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him. And they led him out to crucify him. The Crucifixion 21 And they compelled a passerby, Simon of Cyrene, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross. __________________ 5 Core Values of SWAT 1.

How will agentic AI change the way we shop and reshape retailers' go-to-market strategies? AWS's David Dorf joins Bloomberg Intelligence analysts Poonam Goyal and Anurag Rana on this episode of the Tech Disruptors podcast to discuss intelligent agents' growing impact on retail. Dorf explains how these AI “interns” can reason, use tools, act autonomously and even collaborate, unlocking new possibilities across retail operations. From multi-agent pricing systems and associated task automation to smarter supply chains, retailers are already beginning to apply this next wave of AI. The conversation also explores shopper-facing shifts such as agent-led checkout; answer engines like Rufus, Perplexity, OpenAI and Google; and the ripple effects on advertising, loyalty and answer-engine optimization.

This week on Bet the Process, Jeff interviews Jay Croucher of NBC Sports about his journey from law school to sports betting analyst, the differences between Australian and American betting landscapes, and some NBA and NFL futures markets. Rufus also gives Jeff some college football picks at the very end.

As promised, today we're bringing you a full-length interview with Steven Pinker about his new book, When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows . . .: Common Knowledge and the Mysteries of Money, Power, and Everyday Life. What is common knowledge? For Steve, it is not conventional wisdom. Instead, it's when everyone knows something and everyone knows that and everyone knows it. That may sound loopy, but the implications of common knowledge — how it's produced, sustained, and manipulated — are profound. “It's common knowledge,” Steve tells Rufus, “that makes humans human. Humans are not solitary. What makes humans humans is that we coordinate in groups — from couples to nations to, in some cases, the entire world — and I think common knowledge is the underpinning, the cement, the foundation of that ability to coordinate.” (8:00) Why “coffee” doesn't just mean coffee (14:40) What blushes and laughter unintentionally reveal (30:39) The real reason brands spend millions on Super Bowl ads (35:00) How common knowledge explains cancel culture (48:43) What happens to society when norms collapse? —

On this week's Bet The Process, Rufus and Jeff talk football - both college and pro, while also discussing the latest news on prediction markets.
