In today's episode, Dale is joined by Susana Gonzalez, the director and founder of ND Bright Brains, who brings over 20 years of experience in education. They discuss supporting neurodivergent learners in secondary schools and further education. Neurodivergent students often face unique challenges in environments that aren't designed to meet their needs. As awareness of neurodiversity grows, it's crucial for educational settings to shift from compliance-based models to a more student-centred approach that embraces inclusion. Susana emphasises the importance of neurodiversity training, flexibility in school processes (including behaviour policies), and collaborative problem-solving to tailor support for each individual. This includes classroom adaptations, personalised learning plans, and facilitating smooth transitions. Key takeaways: Avoid rigidity; flexibility is essential. Recognise that every student is unique. Remember, it's not solely the teacher's responsibility. Highlight the importance of awareness and training. Understanding neurodiversity can truly transform the educational experience for both teachers and students, fostering more effective support and empowering learners to advocate for themselves.

In this episode of Nursing EDge Unscripted, Dr. Steven Palazzo interviews Dr. Donna Rutherford about her research on bullying behaviors in clinical settings and their impact on nursing students. The discussion centers on a simulation study that examined how bullying and distractions affect medication administration performance. Interestingly, students exposed to bullying completed tasks faster, possibly due to anxiety-driven responses, though this raised concerns about safety and decision-making under pressure. The conversation also explores how to design effective simulations and integrate education on bullying into nursing curricula. Dr. Rutherford emphasizes the importance of preparing students with strategies to handle real-world clinical challenges, including interpersonal dynamics.Rutherford, D., Gillespie, G.

The Prime Minister has revealed tech-giant Amazon is investing $7.5 billion into New Zealand. Speaking exclusively to Newstalk ZB, Christopher Luxon says Amazon Web Services is scheduled to be announcing the investment. He told Mike Hosking it will create up to a thousand jobs, and make an $11 billion boost to GDP. Luxon says it's probably the largest ever publicly announced technology investment in New Zealand by an international tech firm. Speaking of international investors, the Prime Minister wants foreign investors to feel comfortable here so they invest more. New rules mean Active Investor Plus visa holders can now buy or build one home in New Zealand if it's worth at least $5 million. They'll still need to invest another $5 million separately, as part of the visa's criteria. Luxon told Hosking everything will fall into place for these investors once they have a house here. He says it's not just about the first $5-10 million they're spending, it's what comes after that when they start seeing more investment opportunities.

In this episode, Jeff breaks down the fantasy football league settings that turn your season into a dice roll instead of a skill game. From short benches and position maximums to high-variance scoring bonuses, old-school waiver systems, and the weekly chaos of defense/special teams, Jeff dives into why these rules promote luck over strategy and how they can wreck even the best-built rosters. If you've ever lost to a random 50-yard touchdown or a fluky pick-six, this one's for you. Get Jeff's content: FTN Fantasy

Marty speaks about a newly filed patent for Vision Pro eye-monitoring that is pretty remarkable for future AVP versionsToday's ProNote: Apple Patent introduces Eye-Monitoring feature for a future version of Vision Pro that will Enhance a user's Comfort & Awarenesshttps://www.patentlyapple.com/2025/08/apple-patent-introduces-eye-monitoring-feature-for-a-future-version-of-vision-pro-that-will-enhance-a-users-comfort-awar.htmlAn Apple Patent unveils a Cutting-Edge Gaze Tracking System using Optical Coherence Technology for Vision Pro & Future Smartglasseshttps://www.patentlyapple.com/2025/08/an-apple-patent-unveils-a-cutting-edge-gaze-tracking-system-using-optical-coherence-technology-for-vision-pro-future-smartg.html Apple's New Vision Pro Eye‑Monitoring Patent – What It Means for Everyday UsersWhat the patent says:Apple is working on a future Vision Pro that can watch your eyes while you're wearing it.The headset will use tiny cameras or sensors inside the glasses to track how long and where you look at things (e.g., “glance duration,” “focus distance”).It also plans to automatically adjust the display brightness, color temperature, and other visual settings based on your eye comfort.How it works in plain English:While you're looking around a virtual world, the headset silently notes if you squint, blink often, or stare too long at bright spots.If it detects signs of eye strain, it will dim the screen, shift colors to cooler tones, or give subtle prompts (like “Take a break”) without interrupting your experience.Why this matters for users:Less eye fatigue – The headset adapts to keep your eyes from getting tired after long sessions.Personalized comfort – Settings that fit how you naturally look at things, so the visuals feel more natural and less “artificial.”Health‑aware design – Apple is putting eye health into the core of its VR hardware, not just adding a cool feature.Email us at ThePodTalkNetwork@gmail.com.Website: ThePodTalk.Net

Many healthcare organizations nationwide have piloted various artificial intelligence tools to streamline workflows, reduce administrative burden among clinicians, and more. However, there isn't a set of guidelines or principles for healthcare organizations to use when deploying these tools. This is something that the Coalition for Health AI and the Joint Commission have partnered to create. This week, we hear the conclusion of host J. Carlisle Larsen's conversation with CHAI CEO Brian Anderson, M.D., about his organization's work with the Joint Commission to establish best practices for the use of AI tools within healthcare. You can listen to the first half of the conversation here. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Brightness, tint, saturation… analog television had its—just kidding. Nathan asks questions based on the settings of your favorite TV shows. …Well… HIS favorite TV shows.

In this episode, Shena Gazaway joins us in a discussion of her nurse-led research, providing primary palliative care in patients' homes— where this care is urgently needed but often overlooked. We explore how she leads serious illness conversations, manages complex chronic conditions, and builds trust with patients and families to ensure care aligns with their values.   From qualitative studies to pilot-tested toolkits that empower patients and caregivers—especially in underserved Black communities—we explore what it truly means to lead with empathy, equity, and evidence.  Whether you're a nephrology nurse wondering how to deepen your role or a provider curious about innovative palliative care pathways, this episode offers practical insights, personal stories, and a call for more providers in this vital space.      Shena Gazaway PhD, RN, CHPN®  Shena Gazaway PhD, RN, CHPN® is currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Nursing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. As a registered nurse working within the community, her practice experience stimulated her research interest in supporting upstream decision-making of seriously ill patients and families, particularly those who live in built environments that limit access to specialty palliative care services. In addition, her work centers on the belief that individuals living with serious illness are the best navigators of their illness experience, and interventions must incorporate local knowledge, beliefs, and practices for long-term success. Specifically, her research is focused on developing and optimizing community-informed decision-support interventions for individuals living with advanced chronic kidney disease and their caregivers. Shena is currently funded on a K23 from the NIDDK and a pilot grant the Forge AHEAD center, a P50 center grant funded by NIMHD. She and Dr. Wells also serve as co-I's on a pain heart failure intervention funded by the Alex and Rita Hillman Foundation. She is a past recipient of the Palliative Care Research Cooperative Pilot Grant Program and multiple internal funding mechanisms. Above all Shena is a mother, wife, daughter, friend, and sister, and so excited to share the next hour with you all today.    Brett Snodgrass, DNP, FNP-C, ACHPN®, FAANP Dr. Brett Snodgrass has been a registered nurse for 28 years and a Family Nurse Practitioner for 18 years, practicing in multiple settings, including family practice, urgent care, emergency departments, administration, chronic pain and palliative medicine. She is currently the Operations Director for Palliative Medicine at Baptist Health Systems in Memphis, TN. She is board certified with the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She is also a Fellow of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners and an Advanced Certified Hospice and Palliative Nurse. She completed a Doctorate of Nursing Practice at the University of Alabama – Huntsville. She is a nationally recognized nurse practitioner speaker and teacher. Brett is a chronic pain expert, working for more than 20 years with chronic pain and palliative patients in a variety of settings. She is honored to be the HPNA 2025 podcast host. She is married with two daughters, two son in laws, one grandson, and now an empty nest cat. She and her family are actively involved in their church and she is an avid reader.

Microsoft finally kills Movies & TV show service in the Microsoft Store. This was the final vestigial minder of Zune that remained. There was Groove Video and Xbox Video, too.
