If instant translation is in everyone's pocket, why learn another language? How do associations continue to provide value in the face of thriving social networks, AI,and challenges to traditional membership programs?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Larry Paska, Executive Director of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages or ACTFL. Larry discusses:ACTFL as the “original social network” for world language educators.A field-wide focus on quality and proficiency: standards, teacher-prep guidance (via accreditation partnerships), and research that maps what languages are taught and where.Language proficiency assessments developed by ACTFL and administered via an exclusive licensee that drives important revenue for the association. The Language Connects Foundation's scholarships for teachers and students, micro-grants for research, and initiatives that raise the profile of language learning.How AI in language learning isn't a replacement for teachers, but a tool to support personalization and deepen learning.Dual-language immersion as a compelling model because it builds true proficiency and deepens cultural understanding.How ACTFL has maintained DEI as a strategic pillar because you can't have multilingual and multicultural without DEI.How employers need staff who can communicate across languages.References:ACTFL website
On last week's episode of Unsupervised Learning, Razib spoke with Alex Nowrestah, a vice president at the Cato Institute and a strong advocate for expanding legal immigration. This week, he turned to the other side of the debate with Jason Richwhine, a resident scholar at the Center for Immigration Studies and a vocal supporter of sharply reducing immigration. Richwine earned undergraduate degrees in mathematics and political science from American University, and later a Ph.D. in public policy from Harvard. Before joining CIS, he served as deputy director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology and worked as a senior policy analyst at the Heritage Foundation. The conversation begins with an overview of the dramatic swings in U.S. immigration policy under Biden and Trump. Both note the surge of the foreign-born population in the early 2020s, with the unauthorized share now estimated at 15-16 million. Richwine faults Biden for lax border enforcement and the abuse of parole programs, and points to the comparative effectiveness of Trump's Remain in Mexico policy. He also presses the case for a moratorium, arguing that even legal immigration must be scaled back to sustainable levels. Razib and Richwine weigh the economic and cultural consequences of high-skilled immigration and close by considering whether meaningful reform is politically possible in the years ahead.

Heutzutage begegnen uns überall Versuchungen. Unsere jungen Menschen werden mit Bildern konfrontiert, die verwirren, verführen und die Standards von Anstand und Selbstbeherrschung untergraben. Ein weiser, achtzigjähriger Pastor wurde gefragt, ab welchem Alter sexuelle Versuchung kein Thema mehr sei. Ohne zu zögern, antwortete er: „Das muss irgendwann nach achtzig sein!“ Es ist so: Solange man lebt, ist man verwundbar. Und es geht noch weiter: Studien zeigen, dass immer mehr Frauen in die leicht zugängliche Welt der verführerischen Literatur, Filme und Videos geraten. Willenskraft, Internetfilter und Eigenverantwortung sind hilfreich, reichen aber allein nicht aus, um Befreiung zu erlangen oder die moralischen Wunden zu heilen, die der Feind geschlagen hat. Wir alle brauchen die biblischen Anweisungen, die uns zum Schutz gegeben sind. Jesus sagte: „Ihr habt gehört, dass gesagt ist: Du sollst nicht ehebrechen. Ich aber sage euch: Wer eine Frau ansieht, sie zu begehren, der hat schon mit ihr die Ehe gebrochen in seinem Herzen.“ (Mt 5,27-28). Der erste Schritt ist, zu erkennen, dass Lust zerstörerisch und nach der Schrift verboten ist. Jesus spricht nicht von einem flüchtigen Blick. Er meint den begehrlichen Blick, der Begierde entfacht und zur Sünde führt. Das griechische Wort „blepo“ für „anschauen“ deutet auf die bewusste, längere Betrachtung hin. Ein Blick, der falsche Leidenschaft weckt, sollte uns ins Gebet führen, den Heiligen Geist um Hilfe zu bitten, um der Sünde zu widerstehen und in Reinheit zu wandeln.

As the Building Better Developers with AI season nears its close, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit a topic every team faces but few get right: code consistency. In this episode, they explore how shared conventions, smart tooling, and simple documentation transform messy projects into scalable, high-quality systems. The Hidden Cost of Inconsistency Picture opening a project where every file tells a different story: mixed naming styles, conflicting error handling, and folders arranged on a whim. Before you can fix a bug or add a feature, you're lost in formatting chaos. Callout: Inconsistency wastes time, complicates onboarding, and hides defects—long before code reaches production. Rob notes that AI can now help. Define your preferred patterns—naming, structure, logging—and tools like ChatGPT can propose refactors that enforce uniformity. What Code Consistency Looks Like Consistency isn't about stifling creativity—it's about shared, predictable choices that reduce cognitive load. The essentials include: Naming & Structure – Clear, conventional names; sensible modules/packages. File Organization – Standard project layouts (Maven for Java, src/app folders in web projects). Comments & Docs – Concise explanations paired with readable code. Error Handling & Logging – A single, unified approach across the app. Michael highlights that without these agreements, containerized deployments break easily and new developers struggle to contribute. Why Teams Benefit from Code Consistency Rob compares a consistent codebase to a band playing in sync: individual instruments can vary, but the music holds together. That's the impact of code consistency. Benefits include: Communication: Developers spend less time deciphering quirks. Maintainability: Predictable structure accelerates debugging and onboarding. Quality: Automated tools enforce standards and prevent regressions. Professionalism: Consistent code signals engineering maturity, not just coding skill. Tools That Do the Heavy Lifting Michael insists that every team should enforce linters, formatters, and pre-commit hooks. Without them, a small change can appear as a full-file rewrite, confusing reviews and merges. Start with community standards like PEP8, Google Java Style, or eslint/prettier. Add checks to CI/CD pipelines. Document expectations in CONTRIBUTING.md or a team wiki. Pro Tip: One rule set, many editors. Don't let each IDE invent its own defaults. Debunking the Myths of Code Consistency “Standards kill creativity.” True creativity lies in solving problems, not inventing new brace styles. “It slows us down.” Alignment may take effort initially, but it saves hours of confusion later. “Every project is different.” Standards should evolve as living guidelines, not rigid laws. Michael adds that consistent libraries allow teams to reuse components across projects instead of duplicating them. How to Put Standards Into Practice Here's a simple rollout path: Choose a baseline such as PEP8 or Google Style. Automate formatting and linting. Add pre-commit hooks to stop violations early. Focus reviews on consistency, not just correctness. Document standards and revisit them quarterly. Encourage adoption. Praise clean diffs and fast merges. Your Developer Challenge Here's your action step: Pick one project and audit three files. How many naming styles, error-handling patterns, or file structures do you find? Then: Apply a linter or formatter. Document two conventions (naming + logging). Share them with your team. Small steps toward code consistency will save your team time, money, and frustration down the road.

In this episode, Tracy is joined by Chef Murray Hall, Chef Martha Morgan, and disability rights attorney Laurel Francoeur to discuss an issue that should no longer be happening—venues refusing to provide safe meals for guests with celiac disease. An event planner recently posted that the kitchen at her event venue “doesn't accommodate” celiac guests. Not a preference. Not a lifestyle. A medically necessary dietary need—and still being dismissed. She is asking the network of planners for suggestions to order about 10 celiac-friendly meals in a particular city. Chef Murray's take? “Crazy that this is still happening. Most places have shifted to this being the norm, not the exception.” We'll break down: ▶︎ Why “we don't do that” is an unacceptable—and sometimes unlawful—response ▶︎ How kitchens can safely serve gluten-free meals when they choose to ▶︎ What planners can say to push back and advocate for their attendees ▶︎ Why inclusive dining should be the baseline, not the exception If you've ever had to scramble to feed your guests safely—or felt like you were the only one fighting for what's right—this conversation is for you.

This conversation delves into the concept of the burden of proof, exploring its complexities and significance in legal contexts. It distinguishes between the burden of production and the burden of persuasion, outlines various standards of proof, and discusses the rationale behind different burdens in criminal and civil cases. The dialogue also addresses modern academic critiques and practical challenges in applying these legal principles, emphasizing the importance of evidence and the implications of emerging technologies in the legal system.In the intricate world of law, the concept of the "burden of proof" stands as a cornerstone. Imagine a courtroom where the scales of justice are delicately balanced, waiting for the evidence to tip them. This burden determines who must prove their case and to what extent, shaping the outcome of legal proceedings.The Basics of Burden of Proof: At its core, the burden of proof is about responsibility. In criminal cases, this burden lies with the prosecution, who must prove the defendant's guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt." This high standard reflects the serious consequences of a criminal conviction. In civil cases, the burden is typically "on the balance of probabilities," meaning the plaintiff must show that their claims are more likely true than not.Shifting the Burden: Interestingly, the burden of proof can shift during a trial. For instance, once the prosecution establishes a prima facie case, the defense may need to present evidence to counter the claims. This dynamic interplay ensures that both parties have a fair opportunity to present their case.Understanding the burden of proof is crucial for anyone involved in legal proceedings. It not only dictates the flow of a trial but also underscores the fundamental principle of justice: that one is innocent until proven guilty. As you navigate the legal landscape, remember that the burden of proof is more than a procedural rule—it's a safeguard of fairness and justice.Subscribe Now: Stay informed about the intricacies of the legal world.

Dr. Wilson is a research chemist and coordinator of the Cannabis Research Program in the Chemical Sciences Division at the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland. He received his B.S. degree in Chemistry from Greensboro College followed by a M.S. degree in Chemistry from the same institution. He then moved south to pursue a Ph.D. in Chemistry at the University of Central Florida, training in the lab of Prof. Andres D. Campiglia. In a wide-ranging conversation, we discuss the influence of 2000's television shows such as CSI on Brent's interest in forensic science and analytical chemistry, and how an informal interview at a poster session ultimately led to the position he now holds at NIST. Dr. Wilson shares how he navigated the educational landscapes in forensic science and chemistry, both at the undergraduate and graduate levels. We discuss the evolution of cannabis standards and analytical characterization in recent years, and Brent shares his perspective on the importance of standards in general, the birth of a reference material, and the significant effort it takes to bring these materials to the point where analytical scientists like us can purchase them. Dr. Wilson also describes some of his work on low-temperature emission spectroscopy techniques, where molecule exhibit much narrower and specific emission bands compared to room temperature detection. Brent also shares more about the life of a scientist within NIST, from day-to-day activities, competing for federal funding, and more. Finally, Dr. Wilson shares some professional advice, including the importance of being prepared and adaptable, the value of talking with people at conferences, and the importance of establishing and maintaining relationships over the course of one's career.

In Brüssel hat die EU-Kommission die Handelsvereinbarung mit den Mercosur-Staaten – also Argentinien, Brasilien, Paraguay und Uruguay – auf den Weg gebracht. In Polen sorgt das für heftige Diskussionen: Die Oppositionspartei wirft der Regierung vor, nicht genug unternommen zu haben, um das Abkommen zu stoppen. Der Vorwurf: billige Lebensmittel mit niedrigeren Standards könnten die europäischen Märkte überschwemmen – und damit polnische Bauern besonders hart treffen. Das Mercosur-Abkommen ist eines unserer Themen.
IntroductionMy first experience with a cardiac arrest as a new EMT → exhilarating, confirmed calling to emergency medicine.Early struggles: dropped out of college, lacked discipline, but EMT training provided a direction and purpose.Spent years balancing work as EMT/paramedic with school → long path to becoming a PA.Lessons from emergency medicine shaped clinical skills and mindset.Concept of standards:Standards = benchmarks, measurable expectations, non-negotiable habits.Different from principles (general truths) → standards are concrete, either met or not.Standards build consistency, resilience, and preparation.Personal struggles: binge eating, lack of discipline, repeated failures to meet daily goals.Turning point: completing 75 Hard program → developed discipline, consistency, higher personal standards.Standards spill over into clinical performance, family life, and personal growth.Emphasizes locus of control:Focus on what you can control, not external factors.Even in chaotic emergency medicine, there are controllable elements.Warns that neglected habits eventually become emergent problems (health, mindset, life).Family story: father's heart attack → personal wake-up call about health and discipline.Core message: Raising standards in personal life and medicine leads to thriving, not just surviving.Purpose: help others raise their own standards without taking 16 years to learn the lessons.Chapter 1: Do Not Seek to DiagnoseCase study: elderly woman with shortness of breath and chest pain.No pulmonary embolism, but fluid in lungs and around heart → problem found, but no definitive diagnosis yet.Highlight: in the ED, the goal is to rule out life-threatening conditions, not always find the exact cause.Key principle: Diagnosis is often less important than identifying and stabilizing dangerous conditions.Emergency medicine limits:Not every test or long-term treatment available.Focus on acute, life-threatening issues; leave underlying cause to specialists.Patients often expect answers and certainty, but ED care is about safety and ruling out the worst cases.Overdiagnosis problems:Incidental findings (lung nodules, brain aneurysms, ultrasound anomalies) → create stress, anxiety, or unnecessary proceSupport the showEverything you hear today from myself and my guests is opinion only and doesn't represent any organizations or companies that any of us are affiliated with.

Welcome to Episode 50 of the HPNA Palliative Perspective podcast—a meaningful milestone, and one that gave us pause to reflect on the incredible leaders who've shaped the hospice and palliative care space. In early conversations about this episode, we considered dedicating it to Betty Ferrell, a visionary in the field and the longtime Editor-in-Chief of JHPN, the Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing. But, in true Betty fashion, those close to her reminded us she prefers to stay out of the spotlight. So instead, we're honoring her legacy in a way we think she'd appreciate: by celebrating the educators. In this episode, we're shining a light on the hospice and palliative nurse educators featured in an upcoming issue of JHPN—innovators who are creating new programs and pushing boundaries in their Schools of Nursing to bring both primary and specialty palliative care to the forefront of nursing education. Their work is not only advancing the field but also shaping the future of compassionate care. Join Andra Davis, PhD, MN, RN, and Megan Lippe, PhD, MSN, RN, ANEF, FPCN®, FAAN—guest editors of the November issue of JHPN—as they share powerful insights on preparing the next generation of nurses in hospice and palliative care. Educating future nurses requires more than just a solid curriculum—it demands mentorship, creativity, and a deep, ongoing commitment. In this episode, we explore why palliative care is no longer a “nice to have,” but a necessity in nursing education. From shifts in accreditation standards to real-world bedside challenges, Drs. Davis and Lippe discuss the essential role faculty and mentors play in helping students navigate the emotional, clinical, and human complexities of whole person care. We also explore how practicing nurses can be part of this movement—supporting learners and strengthening the future of compassionate care.

In this episode of the Building Better Humans podcast, Glenn walks us through the three non-negotiable standards that legendary All Blacks coach Sir Steve Hansen used to take the team to unprecedented success. These principles apply to any team, family or organization looking to establish a winning culture. Glenn focuses this episode on upholding standards, arguing that "the standards you walk past are the ones you accept." He highlights how former All Blacks coach Sir Steve Hansen instilled three non-negotiable standards in the team: the team comes first, the team must have alignment, and standards must be player-driven. Hansen allowed debate and disagreement, but insisted on commitment once a decision was made. He empowered players to hold each other accountable. Asa reflects on how these principles of accountability and unity can raise the standards in any team or organization. 00:37 - The quote "the standards you walk past are the ones you accept" applies to any team or organization, not just the military. 02:15 - Hansen's first non-negotiable: The team comes first, ahead of any individual ego or agenda. 03:45 - His second non-negotiable: The team must have alignment through debate and then commitment to the decision. 05:30 - His third non-negotiable: Standards must be driven by the players themselves through peer accountability. 07:15 - These principles allowed Hansen to establish a high-performance culture that wasn't dependent on him alone. 08:30 - We can apply these same standards to lift up any team, family or organization we are a part of. Don't let your standards slip - listen to this episode to learn how legendary coach Sir Steve Hansen instilled an empowered, accountable culture of excellence.ADVENTURE WITH US ONLINE MINDSET PROGRAMS 1-ON-1 MENTORING See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They transition into discussing Nate's potential solo hosting responsibilities next week and their current cluttered studio space. The main discussion revolves around a new executive order from President Donald Trump concerning flag desecration. They dive deep into Trump's stance on punishing countries that tax American tech companies, with a specific focus on the Daily Wire's report about Trump's threats of tariffs.
