Podcasts about Similarity

In this episode, a panel of legal experts discusses the different approaches taken by the Second and Ninth Circuits on two key areas of copyright law: substantial similarity and the Server Test. Presented by the New York City Bar Association's Copyright & Literary Property and Entertainment Law Committees, the panel explores recent and emerging case law and the Second and Ninth Circuits' divergent approaches to analyzing substantial similarity, a key element of copyright infringement, as well as the ongoing debate surrounding the Server Test, which addresses whether the posting of online content constitutes a “display” within the meaning of the Copyright Act. Moderated by Dwayne Amos, Associate at Kasowitz LLP, the episode features a panel of leading copyright litigators and experts, including: • Barry Werbin, Counsel, Herrick Feinstein LLP • Aaron Moss, Partner, Mitchell Silberberg & Knupp LLP and author of the Copyright Lately blog • Marc Lebowitz, Principal, Lebowitz Law Office • James Bartolomei, Of Counsel, Duncan Firm The wide-ranging discussion covers the practical implications of these divergent approaches for copyright owners, litigators, content creators, online platforms, forum selection, free speech, and the application of copyright law nationwide. This episode was produced by Jose Landivar, Senior Associate at Coates IP LLP, with contributions from Philippa Loengard, Executive Director, Kernochan Center for Law, Media and the Arts and Lecturer in Law at Columbia Law School, and support from the New York City Bar Association Communications Team.

Common Ground Wins: Why Similarity Builds Instant Trust Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.  You meet somebody for the first time, what is it you look for? Things in common, right? Because once we have something in common, we can then like each other. Now, not like each other in the way you're thinking, meaning we are like each other on some level.  That is the basis on which we will allow somebody else to be in a relationship with us, or we influence them, or they influence us, okay? And it is how we're wired. Like if you didn't wake up today and say, ah, I did rapport yesterday, I'm not gonna do it today. That was exhausting. You have to have it every day because it's how we feel safe, right? So now this is good news for some of you because you're just like, oh, I don't know if I'm the most likable person. I'll leave it to you to decide. If you create commonality, the other person cannot help but like you. This might be the best thing you learned in this whole conference.  Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.  

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Stephen Shapiro, innovation expert and author of You're Not Playing With a Full Deck: Why the People Who Drive You Crazy Are Your Unfair Advantage. Stephen's journey starts with a costly failure: a $30 million innovation project at Accenture that fell apart, not from a lack of talent, but because everyone on the team thought the same way. Out of that failure came a framework built around a familiar metaphor: a deck of cards. Stephen introduces four distinct personality styles tied to the four suits and explains why teams missing certain suits are setting themselves up to struggle, even when everyone is smart and capable. In this conversation, you'll hear why unanimous agreement is actually a warning sign, how strengths can quietly sabotage performance when overplayed, and why the people who drive you crazy may be exactly who your team needs. Andy and Stephen also explore what the rise of AI means for the uniquely human qualities that only certain suits can provide. If you're looking for a fresh, practical framework to build stronger teams and unlock better results, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "We were smart people. We had smart people on the team, and we somehow failed miserably." "I realized I was the problem. And it wasn't just me, it was the way we constructed the team." "Anytime you have everybody agreeing, that's a warning sign." "I actually think the bigger enemy of innovation is, 'Wow, this is a great idea!' because then what ends up happening is we believe it's a great idea." "It's less of a personality test and more of an opportunity to just stimulate some conversation that typically doesn't happen inside of organizations." "Left to their own devices, diverse teams perform terribly." "So it's not just diversity, it's diversity plus appreciation." "I try to make it very clear to AI: don't agree with me!" "Part of this is who are we really versus who did we become?" "There's a difference between a strength and a strong suit. A strength means you're good at it. A strong suit means you're good at it and it energizes you because it's who you are at your core."

Manche werden intensiver, andere verlaufen im Sand. Und oft bleibt die Frage:

Hosts Lois Houston and Nikita Abraham are joined by Brent Dayley, Senior Principal APEX and Apps Dev Instructor, to explore the latest vector AI supporting features in Oracle Exadata and GoldenGate 23ai. The conversation begins with an overview of Exadata's capabilities and then shifts to how GoldenGate is powering distributed AI, real-time data streaming, and analytics with advanced microservices architecture. Brent highlights recent GoldenGate enhancements, including distributed vector support, robust monitoring, OCI IAM integration, and support for next-generation AI workloads via real-time vector hubs.   Oracle AI Vector Search Deep Dive: https://mylearn.oracle.com/ou/course/oracle-ai-vector-search-deep-dive/144706/ Oracle University Learning Community: https://education.oracle.com/ou-community LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/oracle-university/ X: https://x.com/Oracle_Edu   Special thanks to Arijit Ghosh, Anna Hulkower, and the OU Studio Team for helping us create this episode.   Please note, this episode was recorded before Oracle AI Database 26ai replaced Oracle Database 23ai. However, all concepts and features discussed remain fully relevant to the latest release.   -------------------------------------------------------   Episode Transcript:   00:00 Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast, the first stop on your cloud journey. During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:26 Lois: Hello and welcome to another episode of the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Lois Houston, Director of Communications and Adoption Programs with Customer Success Services, and with me is Nikita Abraham, Team Lead of Editorial Services with Oracle University.  Nikita: Hi everyone! Thanks for joining us! In our previous episode of this series, we took a deep dive into Oracle AI Vector Search and Retrieval Augmented Generation, or RAG, showing how unstructured data can be transformed into embeddings to power smarter, more context-aware AI with Oracle Database 23ai. Lois: That's right, Niki. We also explored how the OCI Generative AI service can be used with both Python and PL/SQL, and how AI Vector Search enables relevant information retrieval for large language model prompts. 01:21 Nikita: Today, we're focusing on the latest supporting features for Oracle AI Vector Search. Joining us once again is Brent Dayley, Senior Principal APEX and Apps Dev Instructor. Welcome back, Brent! To kick things off, could you outline what's new in Exadata with the 24ai release, particularly for AI storage? Brent: So Exadata has ushered in a new era of AI capabilities with 24ai release. Key features of Exadata system software 24ai include AI Smart Scan, Exadata RDMA Memory, known as XRMEM, Exadata Smart Flash Cache, and on-storage processing.  In-Memory Columnar Speed JSON Queries, Transparent Cross-Tier Scans, and caching enhancements, including Columnar Smart Scan at Memory Speed, Exadata Cache Observability, and Automatic KEEP Object Load into Exadata Flash Cache.  Now, Exadata system software 24ai is a significant release. It ushers in a new era of AI capabilities for Oracle Database users.  Now there have been some infrastructure improvements, including the ability to increase the number of virtual machines on X10M and Secure Boot for KVM Virtual Machines.  We have also improved and enhanced high availability and network resilience, including improved RoCE Network Resilience and enhanced RoCE Network Discovery. There have been some enhancements for monitoring and management, including AWR and SQL Monitor Enhancements and JSON API for Management Server.  Additionally, security enhancement. SNMP Security. Now, Exadata system software 24ai is supported on Exadata database machines and storage expansion racks from X6 and newer.  03:40 Lois: Those are some fantastic advancements for Exadata users. Now, let's pivot to distributed AI. Brent, can you walk us through how GoldenGate enables distributed AI? Brent: Let's take a look at some common GoldenGate use cases as a refresher. The first use case is multi-active, high availability, and cross-region deployments, spanning on-premises and cloud environments.  Another use case includes data offloading and data hub creation in order to support multiple downstream applications. Real-time data stores for Downstream Marts and Analytics. Micro and mini services architecture and an audit history of transactions.  Other use cases include migrations and upgrades of databases, including OCI-hosted databases. Another use case would be creating analytic data feeds for various applications, including SaaS and on-premises apps. And finally, stream analytics using application and transaction events captured by GoldenGate Stream Analytics.  05:03 Nikita: We know GoldenGate has long been a staple for enterprise data integration. So Brent, what makes GoldenGate the best choice today, and how has its architecture evolved? Brent: It offers DIY Stream Analytics. GoldenGate does remain the top choice for Enterprise Standard, real-time data streaming. It supports Oracle and third-party databases, vector sources, messaging systems, and NoSQL databases.  OCI offers a fully managed pipeline builder for Stream Analytics. This pipeline leverages various OCI services, such as OCI Streaming for real-time event ingestion, OCI Dataflow for stream processing, OCI Big Data for data storage and processing, and OCI Stream Analytics for real-time event processing and analysis.  GoldenGate microservices, available since 2017 in Oracle GoldenGate 12.3, is used in over 4,000 deployments in OCI. Benefits of GoldenGate microservices include the ability to employ the same trusted Extract and Replicat processes as the classic architecture.  Provides flexible and secure remote administration through a user-friendly web interface or CLI. Deployable on-premises in OCI as a service and in third-party cloud environments. Simplified patching and upgrading process.  Now the GoldenGate architecture evolution. First, classic architecture that was deprecated in version 19c and desupported in 23ai. Microservices Architecture introduced in version 12.3 and is the recommended architecture. A migration utility is available to upgrade from classic to microservices architecture.  07:12 Are you ready to create and manage AI Agents in Fusion Applications?

Start with the Foundations course to build, customize, and deploy AI Agents, and then advance to the Developer Professional certification. Explore hands-on labs and real-world case studies. Visit mylearn.oracle.com for all the details.  07:39 Nikita: Welcome back! It sounds like the latest GoldenGate updates offer new features and integrations. Could you share more about these enhancements? Brent: There are many new features and enhancements in GoldenGate, along with microservices, including a redesigned GUI for enhanced usability. Integration with StatsD and Telegraf for monitoring and metrics. OCI IAM integration for secure access control.  JSON Relational Duality for flexible data handling. Next-generation AI with distributed vector support. PDB Extract Capture for efficient data extraction from Oracle Pluggable Databases. DDL notification on Target Tables for schema evolution management.  Support for non-Oracle and Big Data technologies. Online DDL and EBR enhancement for improved performance. Data Streams Pub-Sub for asynchronous data dissemination. Async API support for standardized event communication. High-availability clusters for increased resilience. Trail Files Management for efficient data storage. And support for new features in 23ai database.  It also includes integrated diagnostics for improved troubleshooting of IE and IR processes. And 30 or more OS and database certifications for wider platform support. @Dbfunction Mapping for custom data transformations. And lastly, GoldenGate free recipes for pre-built solutions and best practices.  New in GoldenGate, distributed AI processing with vector replication.  09:37 Lois: And what type of use cases does this enable? Brent: Migrating vectors into Oracle Vector Database. Replicating and consolidating vector changes. Implementing multi-cloud, multi-active Oracle vector databases. Streaming text and vector changes to search engines.  Key considerations include that embedding models must be consistent across all vector stores for effective similarity searches.  10:09 Lois: Now, many organizations wonder if they can use generative AI with their own business data. Brent, how do enterprises typically approach this? Brent: Organizations are using generative AI typically like this.  Building LLMs from scratch. Training models on proprietary data for specific tasks. Fine-tuning LLMs, adapting pre-trained models to a specific domain using private data. And prompt engineering with retrieval augmented generation or RAG. Augmenting prompts with relevant information retrieved from a knowledge base to improve the accuracy and relevance of LLM responses.  Now it's possible to create a real-time vector hub for GenAI. This hub can ingest real-time data from various sources, including Oracle and third-party relational databases, vector databases, third-party messaging systems, and NoSQL databases, business updates, documents, events, and alerts.  11:11 Nikita: And how does the vector hub work?  Brent: DML and DDL changes, vector changes, and prompt or chat history are used to enrich prompts. And embedding model generates embeddings from the text data.  Similarity search is performed on these embeddings to retrieve relevant information from the vector hub. The retrieved information is used to augment the prompt, leading to more accurate and trustworthy answers from the LLM. Now, the benefits of real-time data and generative AI include the ability to ensure answers are based on fresh business data. And helps reduce hallucinations in generative AI responses.  Actionable AI and machine learning from streaming pipelines allows data from ERP and SaaS applications, databases, event messaging systems, and NoSQL databases to be ingested into streaming pipelines. This data can then be used for AI and machine learning model training, similarity searches, machine learning tasks, external AI, and machine learning integrations, alerts, and data product creation.  12:25 Lois: So if you had to summarize, Brent, why does GoldenGate 23ai stand out for artificial intelligence workloads? Brent: Well, first up, it improves data quality for AI model training and fine-tuning. And secondly, it enhances retrieval augmented generation by providing real-time access to relevant business data, leading to more accurate and trustworthy generative AI responses.  Nikita: Thank you, Brent, for sharing your insights and detailing these exciting new features across Oracle's AI stack.

How similar can trademarks really be before you land in legal trouble? It's a question that seems simple on the surface—but quickly becomes complex once you understand how trademark law actually works.In this episode, we break down the concept of “likelihood of confusion,” the legal standard used to determine whether one brand is too similar to another. And spoiler alert: it's not about exact matches. It's about perception.We explore how trademarks are evaluated based on appearance, sound, meaning, and overall commercial impression. That means even if your brand name looks different on paper, it could still create problems if it sounds similar or evokes the same idea.We also dive into how industry overlap changes everything. Two similar names might coexist peacefully in completely different markets—but put them in the same category, and suddenly you're in risky territory.You'll hear real-world-style examples that illustrate how small differences can still lead to big legal headaches. From phonetic similarities to lookalike branding, we unpack the subtle ways businesses accidentally cross the line.We also talk about the role of brand strength. Established companies with strong recognition often receive broader protection, meaning they can challenge even loosely similar names. This creates a dynamic where newer businesses must be especially careful when naming their brand.Beyond legal risk, we explore the business implications of trademark similarity. Confusion doesn't just lead to lawsuits—it can dilute your brand, weaken your marketing, and erode customer trust.The episode also covers practical steps you can take to avoid trouble. From conducting proper trademark searches to evaluating your brand from a customer's perspective, we provide actionable insights to help you make smarter decisions.If you're launching a new business, rebranding, or just want to make sure you're not skating too close to the edge, this episode is packed with valuable guidance.Because when it comes to trademarks, the goal isn't to be almost different—it's to be unmistakably distinct.To chat about this one-on-one, grab a free consult at strategymeeting.com

The amount of information on how to find a life partner is staggering. There are videos, podcasts, blogs, books—who doesn't have a theory? While some of the information is good, the sheer volume makes it overwhelming. How in the world are we to make sense of it?   Well, in an effort to sift through all the noise, Roy Biancalana, our host, has boiled down our pursuit of intimacy to 5 essential ideas, and they are the focus of this 5-part series.   In final installment of the series, we face an important question: What is the healthiest reason to seek a relationship in the first place? And the answer is "synergy."   Synergy means, "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts." We should seek, therefore, to be with a partner that makes us better than we would otherwise be alone, a partner who's mere presence makes us more likely to fulfill our potential and express deepest gifts.   When you find that person, scoop them up! And hint: BE that person, and you'll be scooped up, too.

Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 0:51 Indiana Football won a natty. We say again: Indiana Football won. A natty. The Ohio State fans are crying Signs, it's great! Putting this in context because there hasn't been a more surprising national champion in any sport? Maybe Leicester but IU had the worst W% historically of any champion. Arc of college football is the big schools consolidate their chances of winning—last time a new school entered the ring it was Florida, which represented a demographic shift. What does this mean? Not a secret sauce but IU built similarly to 2023 Michigan: a base of players who played together a long time and some elite pieces added. They get better ROI by ignoring HS recruiting, put a lot of time and money into scouting. Similarity to Dusty May in that Cig knows what he needs and scouts the hell out of the rest of the sport. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. Hot Takes and Men's Basketball vs Ohio State Starts at 27:20 Takes hotter than it's not outside. OSU game was annoyingly close. At one point Michigan was 2/16 from three and under 50% from the charity stripe. Biggest story of the game is the way Michigan held Bruce Thornton in check—the one hedge to center court that Mara got called for a foul was an awful call, but a proof of concept for how they defended OSU, which was to not give Thornton any space. Great Crisler crowd kept getting into highs and then a low-percentage event would derail, like their 17%-shooting big Christoph Tilly making a pair of threes (one a bank), 24%-shooting Amare Bynum making a deep contested jumper, and Mobley getting a bank three as shot clock is dying. Missed front ends made FT shooting feel extra annoying, somehow righted in the 2nd half. Big part of that was 21 good minutes from Trey McKenney. Liked Cason and McKenney more than Cadeau in this one: OSU has a 7'0" center and a 7'2" center but both of them are glued to the floor, which favors YOLO players. Annoying turnovers trying to figure out their zone. 3. Men's Basketball vs Indiana and a Nebraska Preview Starts at 54:03 Less annoying game, as Indiana was without Tayton Conerway for all but two minutes, and nobody else has the ability to get to the rim. IU couldn't even get the ball inside the three-point line. They finished 11/34 (32%) from three and that was because they made twice as many as they should have. IU only got five ORebs as they abandoned the glass to stop Michigan's transition game but terrible Nick Dorn shots that went off the back iron were their best way of getting the ball in the paint. Final score doesn't reflect the game because once Michigan got up 20-5 they put it in cruise control—this time it wasn't LJ Cason on the one drive for a layup. Will Tschetter's defense on Tucker DeVries was also a major factor. Nebrasketball is truly good. Very well-coached team, has a good system that turns everybody into Nebraska: 11th in taking threes, 6th in opponent 3PA/FGA. Have to slow down the game to protect stretch C Rienk Mask, who's the key to that offense. Might be without small four Braden Frager and been without SG Connor Essegian most of the year so there's a 23% shooting big in Berke "the Turk" Buyuktuncel that you can hide Mara on. The problem with that is it takes Mara out of the paint so you can't get away with playing as aggressively on the perimeter. Think we saw the prototype for how they want to play against Nebraska in that Oregon game. Might be able to do what Illinois did, was to take shots but then crash the glass because they don't have a lot of size. 4. Women's Basketball wsg Ira Weintraub Starts at 1:15:12 Time to get to know the best women's team in school history. Three losses were all similar: got way behind in the 1st quarter, fought their way back, came up short. Defense is fantastic, play the full court and cause a lot of turnovers which creates offensive opportunities. Get bogged down a bit in the half court and struggle to make their FTs. WBB officiating is beyond atrocious. Washington loss was a schedule thing after 2OT late game vs Oregon, but UConn and Vandy losses showed they can play with the elites and just need one more big basket from the super sophs. Hockeybear is blogging the team and making Team Sheets (key). It's not so easy is it? Super sophs: Holloway runs the offense and sets the defensive tone, Olson is a bucket, Swordsy is hero, and then they're getting a year from a growing Delfosse and UCLA transfer Dudley. Mostly a seven-woman rotation with Sofilkanich giving them some size inside, BQD a nightmare of a defensive pest, and then growth from Crockett who gives them some more size when they need it. Can they compete with the ELITE-elites? Nobody's unbeatable this year; Michigan is a solid two-seed, feel like floor is Sweet 16, has the make of a team that ends up losing a Final Four game en route to a big run next year.   MUSIC: "Getting Killed"—Geese "Forever Never Ends"—Jeff Tweedy "Downhill"—The Delivery Boys feat.

For decades, we’ve been told that humans and chimpanzees are 99% genetically identical a claim repeated in museums, textbooks and by science celebrities like Bill Nye. But new genomic research tells a very different story. In this episode, Dr. Casey Luskin joins to reveal why the “1% difference” statistic is outdated, misleading, and scientifically inaccurate. We discuss how this number became one of evolution’s most popular talking points, why it persists despite being debunked, and what the latest studies actually show about human-chimp DNA.

The Similarity Between Nur Al Deen & Salahuddin - Ml Muhammed Ali Desai by Radio Islam

AN 9.42 At Udāyī's request, Ānanda explains an obscure verse spoken (in SN 2.7) by a deity. The nine progressive meditations are the escape from confinement. AN 9.43 The Buddha speaks of a “direct witness', that is, someone who personally has thorough and proficient experience of the different meditation states. AN 9.44 One liberated by wisdom first enters the meditation states, then understands them. AN 9.45 One freed both ways is both proficient in and understands the meditation states. AN 9.46 The teaching apparent in the present life is experienced provisionally in deep meditation, and completely when the defilements end. AN 9.47 - 51 Extinguishment apparent in the present life is experienced provisionally in deep meditation, and completely when the defilements end.

The different faces of identity: Navigating sexual orientation and gender expression   Welcome back to Blended!   Today, we're talking about sexual orientation, gender identity and expression.   Discussions around these issues have been hitting the headlines more and more in recent months. And it's fair to say that many recent rulings and debates have felt like a step backward for a lot of different communities – they just want the freedom to be themselves. But there's a fundamental lack of understanding. A lot of people just don't understand what it means to have a different identity or expression. And a lack of understanding, the unfamiliar or unknown, is what often sits behind fear.   So today we're going to be opening up a conversation to encourage understanding, so we can fight that fear and create spaces that are safe and welcoming for everyone.   IN THIS EPISODE:   [01.02] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·       Kai – Social Scientist, President of TransFocus and speaker ·       Ross – Vice President at GLAAD Media Institute, author and speaker  ·       Kiara-Kumail – Employee at White Ribbon and actor     [04.23] The group explore sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression and the many factors around these topics, from pronouns and labels, to authenticity and fear.   ·       Sex vs gender ·       Labels ·       Evolution of labels/identities ·       Words/identities mean different things to different people ·       ‘I am' vs ‘I identify as' ·       Asking open-ended questions ·       Creating safe spaces o   What are they? o   How do we create them? o   Language o   Infrastructure o   Support/listening ·       We're more than just our identities ·       Definitions becoming reductive ·       Problems with identity becoming politicized  ·       The growth of LGBTQIA+ ·       Pronouns ·       How we introduce ourselves    ·       The nuance of curiosity and asking questions ·       Respect ·       Fear of making a mistake ·       Being open to being corrected ·       Acknowledging, and apologizing for, mistakes ·       Making assumptions ·       Internal vs external ·       Control ·       Cultural rules ·       How gender expression relates to physical safety ·       Masculinity and femininity ·       Shifting gender expression to suit different environments ·       Belonging ·       Authenticity ·       How anti-trans sentiment also harms cisgender people     “Labels will never fully be able to capture everything, though they help people identify in certain ways. Ultimately, it's not about fully understanding everything, it's about respect and being a good human being. And labels expand and mean different things to different people. The community exists beyond a monolith, we all have different opinions – there's no one easy answer unfortunately.” Kiara-Kumail   “Sexual orientation and gender identity are not just LGBTQ things, they're something we all have. We all have a way in which we know and understand ourselves, and share it out with the world.” Ross   “There's no right or wrong… But the way we can be more expansive is to say: ‘Tell me about yourself.' It's an open-ended question, and then people can feel free to share whatever they want... Sometimes people are hesitant, because they don't know whether it's safe to share.” Kai   “If someone raises an issue, that's a big deal because it takes so much energy. Most people in the research we do, do not raise issues. About 75% have issues, but don't raise them.” Kai   “Introducing yourself is a good way to do it. Because, if you're asking, be honest: Are you asking the only visibly trans person in the room, or are you asking everybody that? Sometimes inclusion can actually be exclusionary. It's good practice not to single one person out.” Kiara-Kumail   “For trans and non-binary folks, people often misread them – we look at the exterior and jump to conclusions… They're misgendered about 70% of the time, it's on a daily basis, and that's a heavy burden to bear.” Kai     [40.44] The panel share an overview of where the US currently is with gender and sexuality issues, why many feel that we've taken a step backwards, and why it's so important to continue to talk about these issues openly and without judgement.   ·       Similarity to the persecution of gay men during the AIDs crisis in the 1980s ·       Modern radicalization of boys and men ·       Manosphere ·       Danger of discriminatory echo chambers ·       Dehumanization ·       Allyship ·       Honest, open dialogue ·       Separating fact from fiction  ·       Combined vision – weaving in women's and men's issues ·       Overlapping needs/intersectionality ·       Shared benefits ·       Trying to turn negatives into positives ·       Speed of change     “We'd previously been making quite a lot of progress, especially on trans issues and rights… Now it feels like a reversal. But I think it's a pause, to allow more people to catch up… I try to understand many different perspectives and I hear time and time again: it's too fast. So, OK – let's regroup, restart the conversation, go back, and go through the basics.” Kai   [49.40] The group discuss what organizations can do to support the LGBTQIA+ community in the current political environment.   ·       Increasing millennial and Gen Z affinity with LGBTQ community ·       Millennial and Gen Z groups are customers and employees – driving expectations ·       Support grounded in values ·       Difference between what organizations say and do (social media vs real policy) ·       Need for larger systemic change, changing norms ·       Appreciation of queer culture, not just people ·       Analysis of biases ·       Providing health insurance that covers gender affirming care ·       Organizations pulling out of Pride/removing certain stock from shelves/pulling DEI programs    ·       More inclusive parental packages, i.e. IVF and adoption ·       Support for name changes ·       Areas for active leaning, e.g. Role play   ·       Intent – the importance of trying ·       The importance of listening ·       Kai's experience of working with two-spirit first nation people ·       Trans folk are not new! o   They exist in every culture, throughout time o   Different names, e.g. ‘third gender' in India o   Trans history has been erased o   Colonialism set certain parameters for gender, expression, marriage, etc. ·       Calling in experts – and paying them! ·       Context ·       Consistency ·       Self-reflection   “In the US, despite everything we've talked about, peoples affinity with the LGBTQ community has only grown – it's tripled since 2012 when Gallop started measuring… And that growth is from Gen Z and Millennials… Which means, for companies and organizations, these are your customers, these are your employees and your future leaders.” Ross “It's going to be a smaller group, but a more effective one. Because those are the ones that want to do the deep work.” Kai “People feel neutral to positive about things like Pride merchandise… the same way they think about a sports team brand. What's the difference between wearing a rainbow t-shirt or a Vikings jersey – to a lot of people, they're the same thing.”  Ross “It's about showing up, it's about listening, and getting to know. Because when you have a depth of knowing, you can start to take more tangible action in a way that's connected with people. It's relational.” Kai   [1.14.18] The panel sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.    RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Kiara-Kumail, Kai and Ross over on LinkedIn.

00:00  God is Never a Trinity in the Bible. 03:14  God is always referred to with singular pronouns.HE did great things through Jesus Christ.  The Lord Jesus Christ is someone else, a different “person and being” thanGod.   04:18  Typical Responses from the Previous podcast,and why they fall short. No one showed a place in the Bible where God is described or revealed to be a Trinity. Trinitarian apologists construct their god. Matthew 28:19, John 10:30, Genesis 1:26? 06:26  So much confusion in Trinitarian responses. Theimmediate “default” is to go to a few verses that Trinitarians think show that “Jesus is God”. 10:14  Trinitarian scholars who describe that theTrinity is not revealed in the Bible. “Can't just rifle through the pages of the Bible in forming the doctrine (of the Trinity)” 11:55  Assembling the Trinity, the methodology is faulty. No one in the Bible does this. 14:08  Similarity between Trinitarian and modern “woke”usage of pronouns.  Denying reality and insisting on using a pronoun that does not apply. 16:07  Who to believe: Trinitarians or the Bible?  Stick with the Bible.  #trinity, #deityofchrist, #biblicalunitarian, #fredsanders, #jameswhite Other RelatedPodcasts: If the Bibleis Right, God is NOT a Trinity (Part 1)https://youtu.be/S1-qBYVrkdU Is the Trinity in the Bible?

Over the next week or so, I wanted to reshare the top several episodes of 2024! These are essentially "voted on" by you, the listeners, based on the episodes that had the most downloads over the course of the past calendar year.​​For longtime listeners of the podcast, I think this will be a welcomed revisit of the compelling, invigorating conversations had with these guests; for newer listeners of The Red Light Report, you are undoubtedly in for a treat. Sit back, relax and enjoy learning from some of the best minds and thought leaders in the wellness and longevity spaces!- The more and more I learn about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and acupuncture, the more I am intrigued and it just makes intuitive sense. It also helps when you learn this deep and complex knowledge from someone as intelligent and articulate as (now) three-time guest, Dr. Chris Motley. Long-time listeners of the show are familiar with Dr. Motley and his amazing command and intuition when it comes to TCM and other holistic modalities; new listeners.... you are in for a treat! He is by far one of my favorite humans to talk with, on and off the mic. Dr. Motley not only speaks from his depth of learning the information, but even more so from hands-on experience from his full day's of treating patients. During our conversation today, he details some fascinating discoveries he's made via experimenting with red light therapy and acupuncture points; he has observed some profound results particularly with viruses!  We also take a deep dive into the importance of our fascial system and why it is a crucial (and, unfortunately, a highly underrated and overlooked organ system) facet of our overall wellbeing. Most commonly known for playing a major role in our mobility and flexibility, the fascia plays a much deeper role in our vitality. Dr. Motley and I also discuss the invaluable role that cupping plays in optimizing fascial health, which leads to innumerable benefits that we detail during our talk. ​​We also delve into some intriguing topics that are of special interest to Dr. Motley currently, including psychological aspect of physiological growth, the connection between psychological stress and organ growth patterns and the exploration of devices that detect static charges on the skin for diagnostic purposesI hope you enjoy the conversation today with Dr. Motely.

This is an insightful, yet complex passage regarding widows and how they are to be regarded and provided for by the church. Caleb's questions:1. How should deacons interact with people asking for help when they have not yet asked their family for it? Verse four basically implies it's first the family's job then the church's job right? And is it the deacons job to go to the family asking for money on behalf of the person, or just telling them to ask and then come back if they refuse? Just overall I wonder what that interaction should look like. Have you ever had to enact church discipline on family members unwilling to provide for a widow (since they are "worse than an unbeliever")? Also, do you think this also applies to people with only unbelieving family?2. How do deacons (or how SHOULD they) deal with the command to "refuse to enroll younger widows" (v. 11) and basically refuse to help people that could change their own circumstance (get remarried?) Is Paul referring to this group of "widows" widely and generally. Some of these concepts probably have to carry over to widowers as well so how do you decide what is specific to that time period and what is prescribed for today's church?3. Similarity to #2, how should deacons focus on the godliness of those asking for help? Verses 9-10 seem to say that they must have shown exceptional godliness to be enrolled. (is there something special about this term "enrollment" compared to general financial help?) How do deacons differentiate between a request of a very godly member of the church compared to a spiritually lukewarm member (or an outside unbeliever asking for help)?Although our panel doesn't pretend to have all the answers, we hope you will find the discussion to be insightful, helpful and scripturally based.If you have questions you'd like more insight on, please be sure to email us: mail@thereformeddeacon.org.Referenced in this episode: Hebrews 3:131 Timothy 5:4The Deacon: The Biblical Roots and the Ministry of Mercy Today1 Corinthians 7:37Hebrews 13:17You can find all of our episodes at thereformeddeacon.org.

Things Discussed: Pre-show Tiger Talk: The trick is blowing out arms and managing your pitching staff. Tigers lost 4/5 starters from their expected rotation so they had to do the Bill James thing and do away with them. The way: counter the top of the order with a reliever, have your "starter" pitch 1.5 times through the lineup, go to your bullpen when you get back to the top of the order so the best hitters are never seeing the same pitcher twice. What a year: Tigers, Lions, and Michigan won playoff games in 2024 and the Wings and Pistons did not. Washington slip-ups: What can you fix, what can you not? Time to replace Evan Link—Persi is fine. Gonna go with Tuttle; that won't be a panacea but apparently they were preparing for him all along. Get Jyaire Hill some cleats. Defensively what's the problem? On standard downs they're elite, on passing downs they get too creative, and they're creating busts. Zeke Berry is not Mike Sainristil. You don't play Jyaire Hill like he's Aamir Hall: have him roll up and play some man. Makari Paige: he's a senior but he's not a Peppers who can line up at the LB level and run with Giles Jackson. Mitigating factors: Minter and Mac had long ramp-ups not Texas, USC and @Washington in their first three games. Wink came in thinking he gets to run an NFL defense and he's not used to playing with guys who have major holes in their games. Similarity to early Mac defenses: It wasn't until Week 8 that they could adjust to tempo (and even then they got caught in late changes). Macdonald came in running weird stuff and then learned to trust his best players. Evan Link: Brian still has him grading out terribly, Craig thought he's been better. Sam thinks Persi deserves a shot to start at RT. The "HOT coverage"—coach Twitter can come up with some reason it makes sense, but if you're running something you can't run that's on the coaches. Also it was tempo and Guy didn't know what was happening. Wink dialed it back for Arkansas State and Minnesota, but when he's under pressure he reverts to his weird stuff. Gotta know you don't have to be the answer; you can let your guys be the answer. Last offseason was a failure. This offseason is going to make or break this staff. Tuttle is not going to fix everything. He had a two-man route and a "you gotta throw that" to Amorion Walker in single coverage and didn't pull the trigger, then fumbled. His interception was way behind his target. Washington was slipping too. But when they fell over it's just because they suck at this. Did they not water the turf? Was it on purpose to give UW an edge? Let's create a pellets conspiracy! THAT WAS A JOKE; READERS I SWEAR TO G-D DO NOT CREATE A WET PELLETS CONSPIRACY.
