Olá, apaixonados por metrologia!Para celebrar o Dia Mundial da Metrologia, trazemos um episódio de peso focado na ciência de enxergar o invisível: a Termografia.Recebemos o Professor Nalter Camargo dos Santos, Master Termographer Nível 3, e Claudio Pavani, especialista e representante FLIR. Neste bate-papo profundo e técnico, desmistificamos os principais conceitos da área, mostrando que um termovisor, na verdade, não mede temperatura, mas sim radiação. Exploramos a evolução histórica da técnica, as leis da termodinâmica, o desafio da emissividade e as diferenças práticas entre radiômetros, pirômetros e câmeras termográficas. O que você vai ouvir neste episódio:A história do infravermelho: de Sir Isaac Newton à Guerra do Vietnã. Radiômetro, Pirômetro e Termovisor: qual a diferença na prática? Os 5 parâmetros essenciais para medir temperatura sem contato (e por que a emissividade é o maior desafio). Critério de Johnson (DRI): Detecção, Reconhecimento e Identificação. Por Trás da Medida: O Prof. Nalter conta como uma inspeção de sexta-feira sob chuva em uma hidrelétrica revelou um grave erro de montagem em uma conexão, salvo pela sensibilidade do termovisor e pela credibilidade do termografista.

There's a conflict in time management and productivity that few people ever talk about. That's the conflict between being productive and being responsive.  It's almost like the Ying and Yang of life. A sort of Newtonian “everything has an equal and opposite reaction.” While we may want to shut ourselves away and give our full focus to an important piece of work, there's always someone, somewhere, who wants to interrupt us and keep us from being productive.  It's this that we will be looking at this week.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  I'm sure we've all been there. We have an important piece of work to complete, and we need a good two or three hours of uninterrupted focus to do it.  We block our calendars and pre-plan our day to minimise the risk of anything happening that will interrupt our plan.  And then the day starts, you turn up for work, and all hell has broken loose. Bosses and colleagues are in a panic, and you're told you must attend an urgent meeting in twenty minutes. No ifs or buts, you must attend.  Argh! It's enough to have you asking what the point is in making plans when this always happens.  Well, not so fast. It's just Newton's third law of Motion acting in a way Sir Isaac Newton never expected.  The pressure of needing two or three hours of quiet, focused work is matched by the force of people needing your attention right now. Finding the antidote to this phenomenon is what this week's question is all about.  So, without further ado, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Tim. Tim asks, “ Hi Carl, I've tried to do time blocking for years and have never found a way to stick with it. My colleagues always seem to have urgent questions or need me to do something right now. Do you have any ideas to avoid this from happening?  Hi Tim, thank you for your question.  You may have heard of the concept of manager vs maker (or sometimes producer). A manager's role is to ensure the work is getting done, allocate resources, and hold meetings.  A maker's role is to produce the work.  The conflict is between the manager's need to know what's happening and the maker's need for uninterrupted time to produce the work the manager is chasing.  In my experience working with teams, the best teams are those where managers trust their teams to get the work done. Where the flow of information is smooth and works both ways, and the need for “update” meetings is minimal.  The most ineffective teams are those where managers constantly want to know what's happening, are unclear about what they want and by when, and don't protect their team from interruptions.  You can tell these managers by the number of “status” meetings they have each week. Every day is full of them. I remember seeing an interview with Toto Wolff, the CEO and team principal of the Mercedes-Benz Formula 1 racing team. In one response to a question, he said: “My role is to hire the best people, tell them what I want, and then get out of the way and let them do their work.”  Toto Wolff is not an engineer or aerodynamicist, but he is an excellent leader and manager.  Many of the software engineers I've spoken with tell me they need about 4 to 6 hours a day to focus on writing code. And even with the help of AI, there's still a lot of focused work required.  AI doesn't magically produce code. It needs prompting, the right context given and a clear outcome. And the results need to be carefully checked and tested. A lot of focused work. The answer to many of these issues for the people who produce the work is to use time blocking.  Now, time blocking often gets abused. I've seen countless articles and videos suggesting that you block every hour (and sometimes minute) with something.  This is wrong. That's not time blocking. That's setting yourself up for failure, bordering on self-abuse.  Time blocking that works is when you protect two or three hours a day for deeper, focused work. You then leave the rest of the day open for meetings, interruptions and lighter work such as responding to messages and emails.  It's balancing the need for being productive with the need to be responsive.  Yet it's also about putting in place barriers that help you get your work done, and communicating to your colleagues and bosses that you cannot be disturbed right now.  I've found it's that communication step people struggle with. There seems to be a fear that people will think less of you because you are not available to their every whim when they need you.  Complete fallacy. The people in your organisation who get the most respect are the ones who are strict about when they are available and when they are not. They have clear barriers, and no one crosses those barriers.  The people who get the least respect and are often the ones left behind on the promotion ladder have no barriers. They are always willing to stop and chat about this, that, and the other.  These are the people who end up taking their work home and are always the last to submit on a project.  As Jim Rohn said, "When you work, work. When you play, play. Don't mix the two.” The problem here is that when you don't set boundaries and are always available, your bosses feel they have to supervise you more. You get caught in a vicious circle.  And because you are always submitting your work at the last minute, you're being interrupted by colleagues and bosses asking how you're getting on.  When it comes to protecting time on your calendar for focused work, timing is everything.  According to several studies, around 80% of people are at their most focused and creative in the morning. This means, if you want to produce your best work, do it when you are at your most focused and creative.  If that is the morning, protect time in the morning and leave your afternoons open for discussions, meetings and other responsive tasks.  To give you one example, I have a client who is a software engineer.  She's the manager of a team of engineers, and each morning at 8:30 am, they have a 15-minute ‘stand-up meeting' to inform everyone of their plan for the day. (They all follow the Daily Planning Sequence).  This informs the team when each of them will be doing their focused work time (usually a three-hour block), what meetings they have, and when they will be available to discuss projects.  My client blocks her calendar from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm for doing her focused work, but does allow 9:00 am to 9:30 am to discuss any issues with individual team members or her bosses.  Then 9:30 hits, and she shuts down Slack and email, opens up her coding software, and for the next three hours, it's complete and total focus time.  Since she and her team adopted this practice, they've never missed a deadline, and no one ever has to take work home. And more importantly, their productivity, as individuals and as a team, has shot through the roof. This has the added benefit of their bosses now knowing not to disturb them during focus time. There's plenty of time to update projects or gather information before and after a focus block.  It works. It's balancing the need to be productive with the need to be responsive. And during an eight-hour workday, her team is only unavailable for three hours, not all at once. So there is always someone available to field questions from higher-ups and clients, if necessary. Now, there is another block I would highly recommend, and this one will help to reduce and even eliminate backlogs. This is the communications and admin hour.  Let's be honest, Slack and Teams didn't do what they promised. Make communicating between teams and colleagues easier and faster. All these tools have done is take away the immediacy of email, move it to another tool, and made it noisier than email ever was.  We still get far too many communications, and far too many low-value and time-wasting messages.  The problem today is the one we've faced since the dawn of email: the feeling that we must respond immediately. Now, I'll take you back to the two opposing forces at play in your workday: the need to be productive and the need to be responsive.  If you were 100% productive, you wouldn't be communicating with anyone and would be focused solely on your work. If you were 100% responsive, you'd never get any work done, as you'd be responding to interruptions and answering questions and messages all day.  So, there's a need to find some balance.  In my real-life tests, I've found that if you set aside an hour later in the day to respond to your messages, backlogs rarely occur, and if they do, they remain under control.  This only works, though, if you are consistent with this method.  You'll never be on top of your messages if you sporadically deal with them throughout the week.  But if you consistently spend an hour or so responding to these messages and catching up on relevant threads, you'll never feel overwhelmed, and if things do build up, adding an extra 30 minutes is often all you need to get things under control.  Now, let's deal with the elephant in the room. You're open calendar.  Time blocking will never work if you do not get control of your calendar and get in first. In other words, your focus block and your communications and admin time should be pre-blocked on your calendar.  I've seen people wait until Monday morning to find time to get their productive work done, only to discover their calendar is full of meetings.  No, no, no. It doesn't work like that.  You have to go into your calendar and begin protecting time today. Perhaps your calendar is now full for the next two weeks. If so, go out three weeks in the future and set up some recurring blocks of time for doing your productive work now.  You can change these later if the time you've protected is needed for something important, but if you don't do it now, you will never do it, and the pattern you're stuck in today will be the same pattern you're stuck in in three weeks. I would also recommend setting these up as recurring blocks. That makes your life easier, and you soon come to respect these time blocks.  This also makes planning the week simpler. Knowing that you've got a couple of hours each day protected for your productive work, you can assign dates to your work more confidently. I know when I begin the week, that I will have time on Thursday to write this script. I have time protected for doing so.  So there you go, Tim. I hope that has helped.  Look at the work you do, calculate where your balance between being productive and responsive lies, and then reflect that in your calendar.  I mentioned two hours a day for focused work, but if you are in a role that requires you to be particularly responsive, you may only allow one hour a day. But that is far better than nothing.  Good luck, and thank you for your question.  Thank you to you, too, for listening. It just remains for me to wish you all a very, very productive week.

Sir Isaac Newton (From Bonus Eps)

The Poisoner's Almanac

Hello Poison Friends! This week I am posting an older Bonus episode from our Patreon while Erin is out of town and Mother's Day weekend pulls us away from the desk and microphones. We will have a new episode for you next weekend, though, and from there we'll continue our every other week status! Sir Isaac Newton was big into alchemy and likely suffered from heavy metal poisoning because of it. I mean, God forbid the man acquires a hobby, right? Well, according to the Church of England (and his Anglican upbringing) it was forbidden. Technically, it was also banned to prevent the value of currency becoming moot as alchemy's main goals were to turn any metal to gold and to create the Philosopher's Stone--Yes, yes, we do mention Nicolas Flamel, because while he did not actually know any Dumbledores, he was real...or at least a figure written about. He had few friends and many rivals. Newton has been called a genius of geniuses by many and still influences scientists today. Most of us know his Laws of Motion and his work explaining gravity and inventing Calculus. He was also known to be socially difficult, prone to angry outbursts, was fiercely competitive (but also insecure), and did not take criticism well. He also would have been labeled a heretic by the church of his time (and who doesn't love a rebel like that?). His work in alchemy led to his exposure to some toxic heavy metals and the effects can be seen in his letters with friends and through witnesses who knew him best. He became a paranoid and confused shell of a man and we need to dissect what was a result of his toxic hobby. Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

If that was the trailer for the upcoming ten to twelve season series of Young and Younger, pass me a pen and point out where to sign! Time to Restump Podcast the downing of the ducking dogs.We've seen prolonged purple patches and periods previously suggesting the Hayden hysteria was warranted, but, after Friday night's performance, it's official.  Forget about their work around the ground for a moment because we don't want to suffer a celebratory overdose, but Hayden Young and Murphy Reid's antics in front of the Sean Darcy toothpicks was the height of absurdity!Murphy Reid destroyed the ancient Egyptian sun dials and timekeeping techniques with his scintillating siren snatcher, while Sir Isaac Newton is now questioning everything he thought about physics after Youngy's banana bender from the boundary. However, while their highlights steal the spotlights, Sammy Switkowski deserves a ton of love. His first half work and 2 important goals kept us in the contest. And let's not overlook the magnificent game from Karl Worner who not only defended and marked everything that came his way, but partook in numerous offensive plays.As a team, we seem to be surviving on bursts at the moment, and of course on Boltons, but is it a sustainable 4-point business model? Take nothing away from the thrill and excitement of the victory and the manner in which it was secured, but did we allow it to become a tougher task than it should have been? Let's be fair to the Bulldogs, they were injury ravaged, depleted and the walking wounded. While he probably only needs one of them, Bontempelli was on one leg, Ed Richards was under a cloud all week, Tim English was underdone and, with all due respect, their backline consisted of Coffield, Busslingler, Selwood and a guy called Buku.Again, similar to last week, you can only beat who is in front of you and we are making that a habit, albeit against lesser opposition. But can we continue relying on operating in bursts and letting teams back in? I'm just not sure we can regularly escape suffering bouts of opposition scoreboard assaults in quick time against better credentialed opponents.Last week Carlton kicked 5 goals in 7 minutes against us to almost cause us a disaster. Friday night the Dogs came back half way through the final quarter from 28 points down to get within 5 points. Don't get us wrong, we're loving winning and it is exciting football, but that is unsustainable! We're now 7 and 1 after a third of the season and we've set our year up magnificently. But on some level, we are yet to face a test of the current best. This coming Thursday we'll get answers and a much clearer picture of where we are.However, we probably shouldn't rely on bursts of freakish dominance or leave doors open late against the Hawkers. Anyway, right now it's about just enjoying the moment. So, if you're still reminiscing about Friday, and looking for like-minded Freo folk to join you in calling the ridiculous high tackle free kick count a load of Bullduck, your search is over. More adulation, plenty of nonsense and a sprinkle of balance on the pod.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

For our April 2026 episode of Magus we're plunging elbow-deep into the Enlightenment to talk about the magical life of Sir Isaac Newton!Arriving on this planet during the first few months of the English Civil War, Newton was abandoned by his mother, raised by his dead father's parents, and was a vengeful, mischievous child.After a fist-fight in a churchyard during his early teens Newton turned things around, becoming the top student at his local Grammar School, earning a scholarship to Trinity College Cambridge. The standard view of Newton's life was then that, while refusing to complete his training to become a priest, he also made some of the most important discoveries in all of physics. What people speak less of is his occult life, which remained hidden until the 1930s.For Newton laboured for 27 years seeking the Philosopher's Stone, translating the works of Hermes Trismegistus, reading myths and legends and alchemical formulae, and doing terrible things to his own health.A tale of secretive obsessions, heretical beliefs, and monk-like solitude, as Keynes said of him, "He was not the first of the Age of Reason by the Last of the Magicians."We really hope you enjoy! Speak with you again on Thursday for a double-bill of fairy tales and chats about them with "Soria Moria Castle" and "The Death of Koschei the Deathless."Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?REGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURVisit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

Some of the greatest and most pioneering scientists in history believed in the power of the stone, and pursued its riches. Amongst them was Sir Isaac Newton. As is depicted in the audio drama Assassin's Creed Gold, his private notes reveal his secret pursuit of alchemy and the Philosopher's Stone.How far did Isaac Newton take his alchemical experiments? What did the Philosopher's Stone mean to a rational scientist of Newton's standing? And why was his research into alchemy only recently brought to light, even though he wrote over one million words about it in his personal notes?

En la primavera de 1720, Sir Isaac Newton hizo algo que desafiaba las leyes de la física que él mismo había descubierto: dejó que la gravedad lo aplastara contra el suelo. Newton no era solo un genio; era, objetivamente, el hombre más inteligente de su época. Había inventado el cálculo y descifrado el movimiento de los planetas. Pero cometió el error de invertir en la South Sea Company. Al principio, fue prudente. Compró acciones, ganaron valor y vendió con un beneficio del 100%. Una operación perfecta. Pero en los meses siguientes, vio cómo sus amigos, gente con una fracción de su coeficiente intelectual, se hacían asquerosamente ricos porque seguían dentro. La acción subía y subía. Newton, el hombre de la lógica pura, se quebró. Víctima del FOMO más antiguo de la historia, volvió a entrar con todo su patrimonio casi en el pico máximo. Cuando la burbuja estalló meses después, perdió 20.000 libras (unos 4 millones de euros actuales). Pasó el resto de su vida prohibiendo que nadie pronunciara las palabras "South Sea" en su presencia. Su famosa frase final fue: "Puedo calcular el movimiento de los cuerpos celestes, pero no la locura de la gente". Trescientos años después, seguimos siendo Isaac Newton aunque con mejor conexión a internet. Esta semana, en Actualidad Semanal +D, analizamos por qué la inteligencia y el éxito pasados no te protegen de la realidad del mercado. De hecho, a veces son tu peor enemigo. En el episodio de hoy: Por qué las instituciones "más listas" del planeta están comprando activos que hace un año despreciaban. Qué ocurre cuando las empresas "perfectas" dejan de serlo a ojos del mercado (y por qué nadie toca la campana para avisar). El extraño fenómeno de los CEOs que huyen en masa justo cuando sus acciones están en máximos. Y cómo un evento bélico a miles de kilómetros está inflando el precio de la tecnología en tu bolsillo de una forma que Newton jamás habría podido calcular.

The story is told of Sir Isaac Newton, the famous mathematician and scientist, who had a strong belief in God. One day, Sir Isaac went to a carpentry shop and asked the owner to make a model of our solar system. This model was to be to scale, intricately painted, and designed to resemble, as closely as possible, the actual solar system.Several weeks later, Newton picked up the model, paid for it, and placed it in the center of a table in his house. One day, a friend who was an atheist came to visit. When the man arrived, the model of the solar system caught his eye, and he asked Sir Isaac if he could inspect it more closely. As the friend looked it over, he was awed by the fine craftsmanship and beauty. The friend then asked Newton who had created this wonderful model of the solar system. Sir Isaac promptly replied that no one had made the model but that it had just appeared on his table one day, evidently by accident.Confused, the friend asked the question again, and Newton repeated his answer that the model had come out of thin air. As the friend became frustrated, Sir Isaac then explained the purpose of his answer: If he could not convince his friend that this crude replica of the solar system had “just happened by accident,” how could the friend believe that the real solar system, with all its complex design, could have appeared only by chance? The moral to the story: Design always demands a Designer.(Ephesians 2:10 NLT)For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us a new in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.When was the last time you watched your children sleeping? Why do you suppose as parents we do that? Stare lovingly at a perfectly still and peaceful child? It's because we marvel at how they are created and are a part of us. … Design does indeed demand a Designer.Listen again to this passage as I personalize it for us. Repeat these truths over yourself today.For I am God's masterpiece. He has created me anew in Christ Jesus, so I can do the good things he planned for me long ago.God has already stated clearly that you are His masterpiece … just like those beautiful kids you love so much. He has declared your worth and identity. He created each of you and placed you together as a family.Pray with me: “Father, I want to accept and receive that I am Your masterpiece, created anew in You to accomplish the things You planned for my life long ago. I claim that same identity and destiny for my incredible kids. Thank You for my life. Thank You for their lives. As above, so below.”

De día, Sir Isaac Newton era el guardián del Royal Mint, el genio de ojos fríos que clavó el universo a una pizarra con las leyes de la gravedad. Pero su verdadera pasión, el proyecto que consumió más años de su vida que la física, era un secreto. Estaba intentando convertir el plomo en oro. Newton no era un iluso. Era el hombre más inteligente del mundo, y entendió que la alquimia no era solo una búsqueda de riqueza, sino el intento de encontrar un atajo en las reglas de la realidad. El premio no era una ganancia, era reescribir el juego por completo. Arriesgó su salud y su fortuna en la persecución de un imposible que, si funcionaba, lo haría todo posible. Hoy, el espíritu del laboratorio secreto de Newton está vivo. Ha vuelto a una escala que él jamás habría podido imaginar. El plomo ahora se llama "datos". La Piedra Filosofal se llama "Inteligencia Artificial General". Y los nuevos Newtons son los titanes de Silicon Valley, invirtiendo fortunas que harían sonrojar a los reyes del siglo XVII en la misma y febril búsqueda de un atajo para el futuro. Pero mientras esta gran y deslumbrante apuesta se lleva todos los focos, ¿qué ocurre con el mundo de las cosas tangibles? ¿El mundo del plomo, por así decirlo? ¿Qué pasa con los fabricantes de coches cuando el oráculo financiero más famoso del mundo, Warren Buffett, vende de repente su participación en el mayor de ellos? ¿O con los bancos que libran una guerra tan encarnizada que han tenido que contratar a todo el ejército de mercenarios de Wall Street? ¿Y qué nos dice de la economía real que las ventas de una simple caja de pasta de los años 70 sean un indicador más fiable que cualquier informe gubernamental? El episodio de esta semana de Actualidad Semanal +D no es sobre tecnología. Es sobre la peligrosa y seductora psicología de la euforia. Exploramos qué tienen en común Isaac Newton, Mark Zuckerberg y un oso de peluche que vale más en bolsa que muchas empresas de IA. Es un viaje al corazón de la obsesión humana por transformar lo mundano en milagroso, y por qué las lecciones de un horno del siglo XVII podrían ser la mejor guía para navegar los mercados de hoy.

Posiblemente, te lleguen a la mente nombres como Stephen Hawking o Marie Curie, aunque quizás el científico más famoso de los últimos cien años es sin duda Albert Einstein. Pero el galardón al científico más importante de la historia se lo lleva otra persona. Alguien que sentó las bases sobre las que Einstein «construyó» su teoría de la relatividad general. Me refiero a Sir Isaac Newton, quien formuló las leyes de la mecánica clásica y la ley de la gravitación universal e inventó el cálculo.A pesar de su incomparable genio, Newton supo reconocer que había aprendido de otros. En una carta a Robert Hooke fechada en 1676, Isaac Newton escribió: «Si he llegado a ver más lejos que otros es porque me subí a hombros de gigantes». Sin embargo, esta frase no es original de Newton, sino de Juan de Salisbury, que escribió en el siglo XII que «somos como enanos sentados sobre los hombros de gigantes para ver más cosas que ellos y ver más lejos, no porque nuestra visión sea más aguda o nuestra estatura mayor, sino porque podemos elevarnos más alto gracias a su estatura de gigantes».¿Quieres crecer y llegar lejos en esta vida? La mejor forma de lograrlo es subir a hombros de gigantes mediante la lectura. ¿Por qué? Porque el crecimiento intelectual no sucede en el vacío, es un esfuerzo colectivo y continuo de muchas generaciones. La lectura te permite acceder al conocimiento acumulado de la humanidad y aprender de los que te han precedido. También amplía tu mente y te motiva a pensar por ti mismo y a desarrollar la creatividad.La lectura, especialmente de las Escrituras, también tiene grandes beneficios espirituales. No hay nada más efectivo para mejorar tu relación con Dios que leer la Palabra, pues mediante ella podrás subir a hombros de gigantes espirituales. Aprenderás a de la humildad de Moisés, de la valentía de David, de la sabiduría de Salomón y sobre todo, del amor de Jesús. Por eso no me sorprende que hace casi dos milenios Pablo le aconsejó a Timoteo: «Mientras llego, ocúpate de la lectura» (1 Timoteo 4:13). ¿Quieres crecer y ampliar tus horizontes? ¡Súbete a los hombros de los gigantes!

We're gonna go ahead and apologize in advance for any stumbles through this one. Sir Isaac Newton possessed a kind of brilliance that is very hard for the majority of people to really wrapped their heads around, and that includes us. Known as the Father of Modern Physics he didn't just help shape our understanding of the science of the natural world (not nature but the laws that govern nature, gravity, optics, movement, etc) but he deciphered a lot of the mysteries within it. He developed calculus because the math of his time wouldn't help him solve the questions he had. He discovered that light is made of a spectrum of colors that exist at all times even if we can't see them, and he revolutionized the understanding of gravity and planetary rotation. He was also human, who suffered from human flaws, vindictiveness being a pretty evident one.  But as with most genius there can be a mania that lies beneath.

Sir Isaac Newton was a legendary physicist and mathematician. But even the man known for developing the theory of gravity failed to time the market. It is said that after cashing in his shares of Britain's South Sea Company, Newton bought back into the stock right before it crashed. Avoiding the most common mistakes that harm portfolio returns is essential to success in today's markets, where volatility is testing even the most seasoned investors. While there's no single recipe for success, accomplished long-term investors tend to remain disciplined, shut out the noise from a constant whirlwind of headlines, and avoid emotionally charged decisions. This episode of The Outthinking Investor brings lessons from Wall Street and the evolution of financial markets to help investors look beyond uncertainty and identify long-term opportunities. The discussion covers economic resilience and its portfolio implications; growth in ETFs; how alternatives can be well-suited for long-term capital; tax-loss harvesting through direct indexing; steering portfolios through unexpected crises; and more. Our guests are: Barry Ritholtz, Chief Investment Officer of Ritholtz Wealth Management and author of “How Not to Invest: The Ideas, Numbers, and Behaviors that Destroy Wealth—And How to Avoid Them” Scott Bok, former chairman and CEO of investment banking firm Greenhill & Company and author of “Surviving Wall Street: A Tale of Triumph, Tragedy, and Timing” Jim Devaney, PGIM's Head of US Distribution for the retail market Do you have any comments, suggestions, or topics you would like us to cover?

Phlogiston? Elan Vital? Caloric? Mention of any of these at a party, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson will be sure to take you out back and kick you in your essences. So why do "essences" have no place in science? In this episode we explore that question (and dive into some of the history behind this debate) by reading Chapter 6 of Conjectures and Refutations: A Note On Berkeley As Precursor Of Mach And Einstein. In one corner, we have the estimable Sir Isaac Newton and Roger Coates (and of course Andre the Giant, upon whose shoulders they are standing), and in the other, we have Bishop Berkeley and Ernst Mach, looking to throw down at the speed of sound. Berkeley can't get Newton and his forces out of his head (literally), and boy oh boy is the fight ever on. We discuss How should teachers address the "students using ChatGPT to write their essay" problem? Can we learn a bit from Stalin here? Is Ben basically Gandhi? (Answer: Yes of course) How can one be both an idealist and an empiricist? WTF is a 'force'??? Instrumentalism and Essentialism The history of the debate between Berkeley and Newton The lifelong feud between Ernst Mach and Ludwig Boltzman What's the difference between essences and unobservables? Is Mach a filthy plagiarist? Who won the essentialism vs instrumentalism debate? (Answer: Neither side won. Popper won.) References Go amuse yourselves and watch some videos of Newton's spinning bucket thought experiment (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jz3mOlUOGoY&t=1093s&ab_channel=Dialect). Boltzmanns Atom: The Great Debate That Launched A Revolution In Physics (https://www.amazon.ca/Boltzmanns-Atom-Launched-Revolution-Physics/dp/1501142445) Quotes Everybody who reads this list of twenty-one theses must be struck by their modernity. They are surprisingly similar, especially in the criticism of Newton, to the philosophy of physics which Ernst Mach taught for many years in the conviction that it was new and revolutionary; in which he was followed by, for example, Joseph Petzold; and which had an immense influence on modern physics, especially on the Theory of Relativity. Popper, C&R Chapter 6 (20) A general practical result—which I propose to call ‘Berkeley's razor'—of this analysis of physics allows us a-priori to eliminate from physical science all essentialist explanations. If they have a mathematical and a predictive content they may be admitted qua mathematical hypotheses (while their essentialist interpretation is eliminated). If not, they may be ruled out altogether. This razor is sharper than Ockham's: all entities are ruled out except those which are perceived. Popper, C&R Chapter 6 No attempt was made to show how or why the forces acted, but gravitation being taken as due to a mere "force", speculators thought themselves at liberty to imagine any number of forces, attractive or repulsive, or alternating, varying as the distance,[4] or the square, cube, or higher power of the distance, etc. At last, Ruđer Bošković[5] got rid of atoms altogether, by supposing them to be the mere centre of forces exerted by a position or point only, where nothing existed but the power of exerting a force.[6] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imponderable_fluid Mach's antipathy to theorizing and to the invocation of "metaphysical" and therefore unprovable notions led him to some extreme opinions. In The Conservation of Energy he remarks: "We say now that water consists of hydrogen and oxygen, but this hydrogen and oxygen are merely thoughts or names which, at the sight of water, we keep ready to describe phenomena which are not present but which will appear again whenever, as we say, we decompose water. David Lindley, Boltzmann's Atom In Mach's world, there was to be no such thing as "explaining" in the way scientists had always understood it. Mach even went so far as to argue that the traditional notion of cause and effect-that kicking a rock makes it move, that heating a gas makes it expand —was presumptuous and therefore to be denied scientific status. David Lindley, Boltzmann's Atom But it was not always so. Well into the latter half of the 19th century, most scientists saw their essential task as the measurement and codification of phenomena they could investigate directly: the passage of sound waves through air, the expansion of gas when heated, the conversion of heat to motive power in a steam engine. A scientific law was a quantitative relationship between one observable phenomenon and another. David Lindley, Boltzmann's Atom Errata Vaden incorrectly said this that this essay was referenced in Mach's wikipedia page. Wrong! Fool!

An episode that didn't just think outside the box—it questioned why there's a box in the first place!In Episode 143 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr Angela Kingdon continues our journey through the 10 Pillars of Autistic Culture as we move onto Pillar 6 — Game Changing Innovation. Autistic innovation isn't about trends or flash. It's about paradigm shifts. It's about seeing what no one else is looking for, hyperfocusing on what matters, and rebuilding the world, system by system.Dr Angela looks deep into the game-changing transformations developed by Autistic game changers, such as Sir Isaac Newton, who invented Calculus, Sir Richard Branson's out-of-the-box business models, and Angela's father's innovations in creating build-your-own Hot Rod kit cars.Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Autistic people challenge assumptions, not to be difficult, but because we can see the assumptions in the first place.* Neurodivergent people innovate through sensory truth, emotional intensity, and process precision.* Autistic people don't disrupt the status quo to seek attention. We disrupt because the system doesn't make sense, and we can't unsee that.* Game changers in autistic culture often challenge capitalist efficiency with a call for meaning, integrity, and alignment.* Many autistic innovators aren't seen as leaders until the world catches up to their vision.* Historical and modern change agents in autistic culture often operate without blueprints, forging their own.Key Concepts:* Game-changing is not about chasing disruption for its own sake. It's about building entirely new paradigms based on noticing what others overlook.* Autistic game changers are pattern-breakers and system rewriters — not trend-followers.* Our deep focus and drive for autonomy let us find wholly new approaches to enduring problems.* Emotional intensity and sensory insights fuel world-building innovation.* It's often misunderstood or resisted because the new paradigm doesn't fit existing frameworks.

Sir Isaac Newton was an English polymath active as a mathematician, physicist, astronomer, alchemist, theologian, and author. Newton was a key figure in the Scientific Revolution and the following Enlightenment. His book Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, first published in 1687, achieved the first great unification in physics and established classical mechanics. While Newton pioneered the laws of motion and universal gravitation that formed the dominant scientific viewpoint for centuries, his first love was religious studies, specifically the issue of The Trinity, which he vehemently opposed in his secret writings. Peer down the telescope as Joel focuses on the hidden side of Isaac Newton's battle with the Catholic Church and what he deemed as the false doctrine of The Trinity. He then lays out the conflict between Athanasius and Arius, in which Newton took the side of Arius, who rejected the view of the Three in One. Joel then breaks down the Johannine Comma, which is the Trinity's most clear-cut verse, and whether or not it should have been included in the Bible.

Sir Isaac Newton is best known for coming up with the theory of gravity while relaxing in his orchard, thanks to an apple that fell beside him one afternoon – helping him to unravel one of the universe's great mysteries.  But that story is only a small part of the tale...  Heather Birkett delves into one of the greatest minds of all time. Discover how a friendship with astronomer Edmund Halley helped to bring Isaac's ideas to the world and beyond. [Ad from our sponsor] This episode is supported by Blue Diamond Garden Centres.

3rd. Session - Friday Evening -  Movie Workshop - Barcelona Retreat with David HoffmeisterIn this movie workshop on forgiveness, Jesus aims to help us understand that time is a reflection of our consciousness, not a linear sequence. The linear perspective often used to perceive grievances spreads them out over time. These grievances represent the ego, and the sleeping mind is addicted to linear time. Newtonian physics, studied by Sir Isaac Newton through the scientific method, deals with linear time. However, quantum physicists like Einstein realized that time is not linear but relative.Jesus teaches that everything we perceive through our five senses is the past; all perceived experiences are part of a dream. The field of forgiveness, as described by quantum physicists, is a realm where everything exists simultaneously. Time is an illusion, breaking reality into parts like time and space. This egoic concept has turned this field into a line, making us believe it is real. Karma, the belief that past pain and suffering can be repeated, is another aspect of this illusion. However, quantum physics teaches us that time is simultaneous, and it should be as easy to return to the past as moving into the future. This concept is mind-blowing for the human being.If you want to know more about David Hoffmeister and the Living Miracles events, here is more information: https://www.the-christ.net/eventsRecorded, Evening November 1, Barcelona, Spain.

In 1676, Astronomer Royal John Flamsteed was looking to find a way to determine longitude at sea, so ships could know their position and hazards.Feuds with Sir Isaac Newton, dirty rivers and a missing key are just some of the obstacles he contended with and overcame.His labours ultimately paved the way to Greenwich Mean Time.Emily Akkermans, Curator of Time at Royal Museums Greenwich, and Keith Moore from the Royal Society of London, speak to Allis Moss.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past. We take you to the events that have shaped our world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes every day, we take you back in time and all over the world, to examine wars, coups, scientific discoveries, cultural moments and much more. Recent episodes explore everything from football in Brazil, the history of the ‘Indian Titanic' and the invention of air fryers, to Public Enemy's Fight The Power, subway art and the political crisis in Georgia. We look at the lives of some of the most famous leaders, artists, scientists and personalities in history, including: visionary architect Antoni Gaudi and the design of the Sagrada Familia; Michael Jordan and his bespoke Nike trainers; Princess Diana at the Taj Mahal; and Görel Hanser, manager of legendary Swedish pop band Abba on the influence they've had on the music industry. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the time an Iraqi journalist hurled his shoes at the President of the United States in protest of America's occupation of Iraq; the creation of the Hollywood commercial that changed advertising forever; and the ascent of the first Aboriginal MP.(Picture: Greenwich Royal Observatory, London.

What is the universe made of? Where does space dust come from? And how exactly might one go about putting on a one-man-show about Sir Isaac Newton?These are all questions that Mike Edmunds, Emeritus Professor of Astrophysics at Cardiff University and President of the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS), has tackled during his distinguished career. And although physics is his first love, Mike is fascinated by an array of scientific disciplines - with achievements ranging from interpreting the spread of chemical elements in the Universe, to decoding the world's oldest-known astronomical artefact.Recording in front of an audience at the RAS in London, Professor Jim Al-Khalili talks to Mike about his life, work and inspirations. And who knows, Sir Isaac might even make an appearance…

Three hundred odd years ago, Sir Isaac Newton told us that “no great discovery was ever made without a bold guess.” My sense is he didn't have the order book in Emini futures in mind, but his words do translate well to our world of financial instruments. In this short pod, I revisit the events of August 5th, a day when prices normally well discovered went dark. The implications are real and we ought to learn from this short-lived but real episode of instability. As we approach the “4 E's” – employment, earnings, the election and the easing cycle – there's a good deal to consider with respect to playing defense in markets.  I hope you find this interesting and useful.

On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan (and a very special guest) introduce the course "The History of Classical Music:Pythagoras through Beethoven". From the time that Pythagoras developed the science of music in Ancient Greece, it took over two millennia for the greatest minds in science, philosophy, politics, and religion to discover the proper tuning of a chromatic scale. From that moment, music has been able to express the fullest range of human experience and formulate in sound elements of the human experience that cannot be articulated in words. In “The History of Classical Music,” concert pianist and Hillsdale College Distinguished Fellow Hyperion Knight explains how music has developed and what distinguishes the greatest musical achievements through the life of Beethoven. Join this course, whether you are a music novice or an aficionado of the classical style, to learn what makes music great. From the time that Pythagoras discovered the mathematical ratios of harmonic scales, it took the greatest minds over two thousand years to tune the major and minor keys. Pope Gregory I, Charlemagne, Sir Isaac Newton, and lesser-known figures like Guido of Arezzo all contributed to the advancement of the science of music building to the crescendo of Baroque operas. Significant pieces discussed include Monteverdi's L'Orfeo and J.S. Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
