Time keeps moving, and this week on Tuesday, the 22nd, we shift from the watery flow of Cancer into the fiery, bold energy of Leo and the heart of summer. Leo Season is when everything feels alive and abundant. This is our time to step into the spotlight as the main character of our lives, remembering we're not just the star—we're the director, writer, casting agent, and set designer of our story. This Leo Season comes with a lot of reflection energy, thanks to Mercury retrograde in Leo and three other planets retrograde too. All this retrograde energy is pushing us to review our “life movie.” Are we happy with the story we're telling? Do we love the setting, the people we've cast, the plot, and even how we've written our own character? Or is it time to rewrite the script into something more joyful, abundant, and magical? It might not feel easy right now. The second half of July through August 6 is intense—maybe the most challenging stretch of the year. But hang in there, because the energy softens soon. Starting August 6th, a Grand Water Trine brings a wave of ease and everything will flow more smoothly. Relief is just around the corner. We also have a New Moon in Leo on Thursday, the 24th. This moon reminds us that the highest vibration of Leo is simplicity. Like the lion, we don't need to prove or push, we can just be. This New Moon invites us to strip away the noise, release control (especially the control we put on ourselves), and reconnect with what's real and essential. It's a powerful reset point to step into a new chapter with confidence and clarity. With this New Moon, all the retrogrades, and Uranus shaking things up in Gemini, the universe is basically handing us a pause button. It's saying, “Reflect. Rethink. Reset.” We're in a 9 year, a year of endings and beginnings, and after all the shifts we've been through, it's time to consciously create what's next. This Leo Season, let's own every part of our story and direct our lives like the epic, soul-aligned blockbusters they're meant to be.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX Sernova is partnering with Eledon Pharmaceuticals to test a new immunosuppressive drug in its ongoing clinical trial for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The drug called tegoprubart is designed to protect transplanted islet cells without harsh side effects. The current treatment is known for its potential toxicity, especially towards insulin-producing beta cells, and its adverse side effects, making it less than ideal for islet cell therapy in T1D. Tegoprubart has already shown promise in earlier trials, helping T1D patients achieve insulin independence with better graft survival and fewer side effects. This next phase of Sernova's trial (Cohort C) will combine Eledon's drug with Sernova's Cell Pouch, an implantable device that houses insulin-producing cells. In earlier phases, six participants stopped needing insulin completely, with results lasting years. Sernova also plans to use stem cell-derived islet-like clusters from partner Evotec to create a next-gen therapy. If all goes well, a new clinical program could launch in 2026.   https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2025/07/15/biotech-partnership-to-revolutionize-diabetes-treatment.html XX Researchers at Yale School of Medicine, funded by Breakthrough T1D, are evaluating GTT@home, a new finger-prick, at-home glucose tolerance test, to monitor early-stage type 1 diabetes (T1D) in individuals with T1D autoantibodies. Developed by Digostics (Dih-jos-tiks), the test offers a simpler, less invasive alternative to clinic-based oral glucose tolerance tests. The study aims to assess its accuracy, usability, and acceptance, potentially paving the way for wider use in early T1D detection and monitoring. The results of the trial will inform future regulatory submissions for GTT@home use in T1D, which already has regulatory approval in the UK, Europe and other regions for other types of diabetes. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/digostics-announces-university-trial-home-164300142.html XX LifeScan announced that it entered into a restructuring support agreement and, to implement it, filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy. As the process moves forward, LifeScan plans to operate in the ordinary course of business. It expects to emerge from chapter 11 by the end of the year. LifeScan develops the OneTouch Bluetooth-connected blood glucose meter and mobile diabetes app that provide simplicity, accuracy and trust in diabetes management. XX New study looks at quality of life and cost of AID systems. This was done in Finland which has the highest prevalence of T1D in the world. The results show automated insulin delivery pumps significantly improved quality of life and reduced diabetes-related complications. The quality-adjusted life expectancy increased by an average of 2.3 years for individuals using an automated insulin delivery pump. Although the overall costs of automated insulin delivery pump treatment were higher than those of conventional insulin pump treatment, its cost-effectiveness ratio was well below the generally accepted willingness-to-pay threshold of 50,000 euros in Finland. This is the first cost-effectiveness study of automated insulin delivery pumps conducted in Finland. https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-07-automated-insulin-delivery-effective-treatment.html XX Blue Circle Health expands into the 11th state: Louisiana! This is Free, comprehensive virtual clinical care, education, and support program for adults with type 1 diabetes In addition to serving adults with type 1 diabetes in Louisiana, our program is also active in Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, Missouri, Iowa, Ohio, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and Delaware.  The program serves as an extension of participants' existing care teams and ensures continuity of care The organization hopes to inform new care models and policies that remove barriers to healthcare People with T1D over 18 years of age who speak English or Spanish are eligible to enroll. To sign up directly, refer a person living with T1D, or learn how you can partner with Blue Circle Health, visit www.bluecirclehealth.org. XX A new study comparing three popular diets—intermittent fasting, time-restricted eating, and continuous calorie cutting—found that all can help people with type 2 diabetes lose weight and lower blood sugar. But one diet stood out: the 5:2 intermittent fasting plan, where participants eat normally five days a week and restrict calories on two. It led to better results in fasting blood sugar, insulin response, and sticking with the plan. Although researchers identified improved HbA1c levels, and adverse events were similar across the three groups, the IER group showed greater advantages in reducing fasting blood glucose, improving insulin sensitivity, lowering triglycerides, and strengthening adherence to the dietary interventions. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/07/250715043351.htm XX MIT students have developed an implantable device.. for use during emergency low blood sugars.   The new implant carries a reservoir of glucagon that can be stored under the skin and deployed during an emergency — with no injections needed.   The researchers showed that this device could also be used to deliver emergency doses of epinephrine, a drug that is used to treat heart attacks and can also prevent severe allergic reactions, including anaphylactic shock. The device contains a powdered form of glucagon and can be remotely triggered—either manually or automatically by a glucose monitor—to release the hormone when blood sugar drops too low. No word on next steps to make this commercially available.   https://news.mit.edu/2025/implantable-device-could-save-diabetes-patients-low-blood-sugar-0709 XX We've covered T1D1 before, this is an insulin calculator app – there's more to it than that.. it was created by 13 year old Drew who lives with type 1, but removed from the apps stores a few years ago, along with other non fda cleared apps. Drew who is now 18, Tells us they just submitted to the FDA and are optimistic about being reinstated. https://www.instagram.com/t1d1app/ XX   XX 1'm Brodie Sargent, a Type 1 diabetic raised in Mudgee, NSW, and currently living in Wollongong.   Starting August 26th, I'll be running a marathon every day for 26 days, and on the 27th day, I'll be finishing with Western Sydney's Half Ironman.   The current world record for the most consecutive marathons run by a Type 1 diabetic male is 25 and I'm aiming to break it.   I'm doing this to inspire others, diabetic or not, to challenge themselves and not let anything hold them back.   Any donation is greatly appreciated and supports a cause I truly believe in. The Type One Foundation focuses on support, connection, awareness, and advocacy for diabetics across Australia. They run online and in-person events for diabetics and their families, and also offer care packages to those newly diagnosed.   I was diagnosed at 15, and it was a tough time for me and my family, we had no history or understanding of diabetes. I was already a shy and awkward kid, and I struggled to speak up about how much it affected me. I started running with my roommate just to kill time but it quickly took over my life. Feeling stuck and unsure where I was heading, I decided to make a change and try to help anyone out there feeling the same way.   You can follow my journey on Instagram: @typerun_   XX Launched during children's congress To further promote inclusivity and tackle the stigma associated with the condition, Mattel partnered with Breakthrough T1D, a global organization dedicated to type 1 diabetes research and advocacy, to launch its first Barbie with type 1 diabetes. This partnership marks a major milestone in Mattel's commitment to greater representation, and highlights Breakthrough T1D's pivotal role in ensuring visibility for the type 1 diabetes community.   The doll is part of the Barbie Fashionistas line and includes key diabetes management tools modeled accurately with the help of Breakthrough T1D. The type 1 diabetes Barbie wears a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) secured with Barbie-pink, heart-shaped tape, and has an insulin pump at her waist. She also comes with a CGM-tracking smartphone, a pastel blue purse, and a blue polka dot outfit – blue being the color that symbolizes global diabetes awareness.   As part of a broader initiative to elevate voices in the type 1 diabetes community, Barbie also partnered with two global role models living with type 1 diabetes: Peloton Instructor Robin Arzón and model Lila Moss.   Robin Arzon Barbie Image Credit: Breakthrough T1D and Mattel Mattel's one-of-a-kind doll based on Arzón features her signature yellow outfit and a crown-shaped CGM on the back of her arm.   In interviews, Moss has highlighted the positive impact that the type 1 diabetes Barbie's visibility has already had, saying she receives daily messages from young people who feel less insecure about wearing their diabetes devices thanks to her public advocacy.   When Linxi Mytkolli, director of patient engagement at Diabetes Action Canada and person with diabetes, heard about the new “Dia Barbie,” she said she teared up.   “I grew up loving dolls, but I never saw one that reflected the reality I now live with – until Dia Barbie. Seeing a doll with a CGM, insulin pump, and even heart-shaped medical tape felt surreal. It's playful, powerful, and personal all at once,” said Mytkolli.   Mytkolli also emphasized that representation and visibility in toys and media can help chip away at shame.   “I've heard from so many people, especially those diagnosed in childhood, who delayed using tech like pumps or CGM because it felt like a punishment. Visibility in toys helps normalize these devices and makes kids feel like they're not alone or ‘othered.' It turns stigma into something softer – something that can be talked about, shared, even celebrated,” Mytkolli said.   And its impact goes beyond people living with diabetes. Laura Pavlakovich, who is the founder and CEO of You're Just My Type and has lived with type 1 diabetes since age five, shared that this representation is equally crucial for those without diabetes, as it demystifies the condition and challenges stereotypes.   “This kind of representation builds a vital bridge of empathy, illustrating that living with diabetes is simply a part of life for millions. It's an essential tool for educating the public and cultivating a more inclusive and supportive society for everyone,” said Pavlakovich.   Pavlakovich shared her personal experience of growing up with diabetes and how this will provide validation for those with the condition who often feel unseen.   “I vividly remember growing up with a 'my twin' doll, custom-made to look just like me, yet she always lacked the crucial part of my daily reality: an insulin pump. To finally see a Barbie, an iconic figure in childhood play, accurately depict someone living with type 1 diabetes, complete with her devices and pump, is truly a monumental moment,” said Pavlakovich.   To celebrate the launch, Barbie donated dolls to the Breakthrough T1D 2025 Children's Congress in Washington, D.C., where 170 young advocates for type 1 diabetes from around the world met with lawmakers to raise awareness. Priced at $10.99, the doll is now available on Mattel Shop and at retailers nationwide.   While this is a huge win for enhancing the representation of children living with diabetes, it doesn't end there. There is still significant work to be done to improve access to diabetes medication and technology.   “It is not lost on me that Barbie has more access to diabetes tech than many, if not most, people with diabetes globally,” said Mytkolli. “Representation and access – we deserve both.”   By bringing a common but misunderstood condition into children's toy boxes, the new type 1 diabetes Barbie is more than a toy. It's a symbol of pride, visibility, and the message that children with diabetes can live full, empowered lives.   As Mytkolli said, “Whether a child is living with diabetes, or loves someone who is, this doll quietly says, ‘You're not broken. You belong.'”

In this inspiring episode of De Donkere Kamer Podcast, I speak with Clément Cheroux — one of the most respected photography historians and curators of our time. Formerly chief curator at MoMA in New York and the Centre Pompidou in Paris, Clément now leads the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson.We explore the unique role of the curator as a bridge between the artist and the audience, and why archives are far more than historical records — they are living sources of creative insight. Clément reflects on his decades-long relationship with photography, his obsessive image-viewing practice, and how he helps shape narratives around iconic and emerging photographers alike.This is a thoughtful conversation about trust, creative responsibility, and why — even in a world flooded with images — the act of truly looking still matters.Are you ready to use your summer with intention and elevate your practice as a photographer?Starting August 1st, I'm launching The Daily Frame — a 20-part mini podcast series (10 minutes a day) that dives into four pillars essential to your growth: creativity, entrepreneurship, mindset, and what's shifting in the photo industry.For just €8.88, you'll receive daily audio boosts that are short, sharp, and transformative.Why a small fee?

Welcome to Top of the Morning by Mint.. I'm Nelson John and here are today's top stories. Fed Hits Pause—Again For the fourth time this year, the US Federal Reserve kept interest rates steady at 4.25%–4.5%, citing “diminished but elevated” economic uncertainty. Fed Chair Jerome Powell pointed to the lingering effects of Trump-era tariffs, noting that while uncertainty peaked in April, it hasn't fully cleared. FASTag Freedom: ₹3K Toll Pass from Aug 15 India's road warriors, rejoice! Starting August 15, a ₹3,000 FASTag-based annual toll pass will be available for private vehicles. It covers 200 trips or a full year—whichever comes first. The aim? Reduce travel costs, cut long waits at toll booths, and simplify payments. Announced by Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari, the pass is part of a bigger push toward seamless highway travel. The pass will be available via the Rajmarg Yatra App and NHAI's website. It comes amid rising toll charges—up over 3% in FY25 and expected to rise further. To complement the effort, a GNSS-based tolling system is also on the way, allowing for distance-based tolling without physical toll plazas. The government will absorb any revenue shortfall to keep concessionaires whole. Trump Thanks Pakistan's Army Chief for Restraint In an unusual diplomatic move, US President Donald Trump hosted Pakistan Army Chief General Asim Munir at the White House, thanking him for “not going into the war” with India. The lunch meeting was notable for its absence of senior civilian officials. Trump called it “a win” that two nuclear powers—India and Pakistan—chose peace. He also revealed they discussed Iran, adding, “They know Iran very well… and he agreed with me.” Back home, Pakistan's leadership is walking a tightrope. PM Shehbaz Sharif has publicly supported Iran amid its escalating conflict with Israel, and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said Iran is open to talks—if Israeli strikes stop. Want a US Student Visa? Hand Over Your Social Media The US has resumed student visa processing—but there's a catch. All applicants must now make their social media profiles public for review. Posts that appear hostile to the US, its institutions, or culture could be grounds for rejection. The State Department warns that refusing to comply may be seen as “an attempt to hide behavior.” Critics say the move chills free speech and brings back Cold War-era ideological vetting. “This turns consular officers into censors,” said Columbia's Jameel Jaffer. With academic sessions around the corner, international students are scrambling to comply, while legal experts raise red flags over digital privacy and First Amendment concerns. SEBI's Market Makeover: Esops, PSUs & AIFs Get a Lift SEBI is on reform overdrive. In just his second meeting as chair, Tuhin Kanta Pandey cleared a raft of changes aimed at boosting market efficiency, startup incentives, and investor participation. Founders of listed startups can now retain Esops—a game changer that aligns long-term incentives. For public sector undertakings, a new framework for voluntary delisting could fast-track strategic disinvestments. Alternative Investment Funds got more room to maneuver, with greenlights for co-investment vehicles and broader advisory services. Foreign investors in Indian sovereign debt will also benefit from simplified compliance norms. Meanwhile, the long-pending NSEL broker case may be resolved through a new settlement scheme. In short, SEBI is opening the doors wider, and smarter. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hey everyone, Michael LaFido here! I'm excited to share the latest developments from our recent podcast episode, featuring the extraordinary Jay Macklin. Jay's journey from Michigan to establishing a thriving luxury real estate brokerage in Arizona is nothing short of inspirational. First off, let's talk about an important update in the real estate world: Starting August 17, there's a new US requirement for buyers to have a written agreement to schedule private showings of homes. This stems from a settlement between the NAR and the Department of Justice. If you're booking a public open house, no agreement is necessary. This new rule impacts commission structures and adds a layer of complexity for us agents, but it's all about adapting and staying ahead in the game.

Text us your thoughts about this episode or ideas for future episodes!This past Saturday night at 11:53 PM, Tara Dower set the fastest known time on the Appalachian Trail in 40 days 18 hours 5 minutes, besting Karel Sabbe's 2018 mark by 13 hours and 32 minutes.Starting August 12th at 5:47 AM, Dower averaged 54+ miles per day over 2,197.4 miles of rugged and relentless terrain from Maine to Georgia to set the mark.In masterfully riding a fine line of passion, grit, faith, and resourcefulness, Tara and her crew have set a new standard on this trail. I said this on an Instagram post shortly after the news broke, but I'll say it here as well - it's easy to get caught up in the moment, especially in a year that has seen the likes of the first female Barkley finisher, a UTMB course record, and a Hardrock course record - but is this the female performance of the year? Or better yet, is this the overall performance of the year regardless of gender? This is an amazing time to be in the sport. With all that said, we were fortunate to have Tara on the podcast shortly after her feat. In this conversation, we cover topics all about the Appalachian Trail record around her background, preparation, strategy, execution, mindset, and processing of this monumental achievement.

Emelie Brosnihan, 7, bilateral Wilms tumor, Natick, with Kate (mom), Dave (dad)·       During the summer in 2022, Emelie was swimming with her siblings, Olivia and Liam. When they came inside for lunch, Emelie screamed and cried from pain. Her family took her to the local emergency room where it was confirmed she had masses on her kidneys. The family went to Boston where Emelie was diagnosed with Bilateral Wilms Tumors, a form of kidney cancer. Within 24 hours, Emelie had a port put in and began her first round of chemotherapy.·       Starting August 2022, Emelie underwent 12 weeks of chemotherapy to shrink the tumors on her kidneys, leaving her with half of her right kidney and two-thirds of her left. Emelie's last round of chemotherapy was in February 2023. She visited the Jimmy Fund Clinic on a monthly basis for blood work, and prescription renewal until end of May 2023, when she graduated to quarterly visits and scans.·       Emelie enjoys swimming, playing with her brother and sister, and all kinds of crafts. This past summer, Emelie was a patient partner with Homegoods and HomeSense and designed artwork for their annual bag campaign to raise money for the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber. Her bag designs included an underwater scene with fish and turtles, and a panda bear eating a watermelon. Emelie is going to enter second grade in the fall.

Have you ever felt an emptiness despite a life filled with busy schedules, possessions, and endless media consumption? Join us as we explore how fasting can be the key to feeling truly fulfilled. In this episode, we dive into the spiritual practice of fasting, not as a burden, but as a gift that allows us to be filled with God's Spirit and live fully alive. We'll discuss how fasting, much like prayer, has the power to transform our lives and the lives of those around us. Jesus modeled and taught fasting, showing us that it's a way to draw closer to the Father and seek His guidance. We'll look at how fasting isn't about abstaining from food alone but is a means to focus on God, trust Him more, and align our lives with His will. Join us as we unpack these key scriptures and reflect on these essential questions. We'll also introduce a monthly communal fast, encouraging us to come together in seeking God's presence and experiencing His fullness. **Key Scriptures:** - **Matthew 9:14-15:** Jesus discusses the appropriateness of fasting with His disciples. - **Matthew 6:16-18:** Jesus instructs on how to fast in a way that honors God. - **Acts 9:9, 13:2-3, 14:23:** Examples of fasting in the early church. - **2 Chronicles 7:14:** The promise of God's response to humble prayer and fasting. - **Psalm 42:** A depiction of longing for God's presence. - **Job 23:12:** Treasuring God's words more than necessary food. - **Matthew 5:6:** The blessing for those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. **Motivation for Monthly Communal Fast:** As a church, we are committed to fostering a spirit of togetherness and dependence on Jesus. Starting August 1st, we invite you to join us in a monthly communal fast. This is not just about abstaining from food but about seeking heartfelt repentance, drawing closer to God, and aligning our lives with His will. Through intentional relational discipleship, we aim to create a rhythm that allows us to experience God's presence and form our spiritual practice together. Abstain from a meal or your own form of fasting, as we pray together for the lost to hunger for and experience Gods presence as we do

In the aftermath of President Biden's decision not to seek re-election, the nation witnessed a saga of public drama culminating in widespread accolades. The unfolding events have sparked conversations about potential ageism implications, prompting reflections on a shifting political landscape and the emergence of new leadership in senior roles. Libby and panelists discuss. JOE BIDEN HAS HANDED OVER THE REINS TO KAMALA HARRIS AFTER OFFICIALLY STEPPING DOWN FROM THE RUNNING TO BE THE NEXT U.S. PRESIDENT  Libby Znaimer is joined by Brad Polumbo, a conservative commentator and editor-in-chief & co-founder of BASEDPolitics and Matthew Wilson, Associate Professor of Political Science at Southern Methodist University. President Joe Biden's announcement yesterday, though a bombshell, was not entirely unexpected. With Vice President Kamala Harris seemingly poised to secure the nomination, the stage is set for a showdown between a former prosecutor and a convicted felon. The looming question now is whether the American public is prepared for a Black woman president, or if the robust support observed for Trump post-assassination attempt during last week's RNC will endure. MICROCHIPS, IMPORT FORMS AND MORE REQUIREMENTS FOR DOGS ENTERING THE U.S. BORDER STARTING AUGUST Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Timothy Arthur, President of the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.

In May of 2024, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced new rules governing dog imports into the United States. The rules are aimed at standardizing the process between countries and preventing the introduction of canine rabies into the U.S., but the broad-sweeping changes will have lasting impacts on breed clubs that depend on imported puppies for genetic diversity as well as dog owners who regularly cross international borders—including Canada. The CDC differentiates between countries considered to be high-risk for rabies and those that are low-risk or rabies-free. Currently, the rules and requirements for importing dogs from high-risk countries are much stricter than they are for dogs coming from low-risk or rabies-free countries. Starting August 1, however, the rules will be broadened to essentially apply the high-risk protocols to every foreign country regardless of their rabies risk status.
