As usual in the final episode of the year, we hand out three awards for what we think are some of the finest pieces of information systems scholarship produced this year. Except that this time, we are live at the International Conference on Information Systems in Nashville, Tennessee, in a room packed with our listeners. While this means the quality of the audio of our recording is not so great, the quality of the papers we honor this year is. And with a room full of laughter celebrating great information systems scholarship, we end the year on a high note. Congratulations to Stefan, Christoph, and Jan for winning the Trailblazing Research Award, John and Prasanna for winning the Elegant Scholarship Award, and Yanzhen, Huaxia and Andrew for winning the Innovative Method Award 2025.

Notes: Contract Law Exam Ready GuideUnderstanding Third Party Rights: A Comprehensive Guide for Law StudentsThis conversation delves into the complexities of third-party rights in contract law, focusing on beneficiaries, assignments, and delegations. It provides a structured five-step framework to analyze these issues, emphasizing the importance of understanding the roles of various parties, the concept of vesting, and the implications of defenses and priority conflicts. The discussion also highlights the differences between common law and UCC rules regarding assignments and delegations, ultimately equipping listeners with the tools needed to navigate these intricate legal concepts effectively.In the intricate world of contract law, third party rights often present a complex challenge for students preparing for exams. This blog post delves into the nuances of third party rights, offering a roadmap to navigate these tricky waters.The Three-Dimensional Contract WorldContracts are not just agreements between two parties; they often extend obligations and rights beyond the original signatories. This concept is crucial for law students, especially when preparing for exams. Understanding third party rights is essential, as these issues frequently appear disguised within other legal scenarios.The Framework: Five Steps to MasteryIdentify the Role: Determine if the third party is a beneficiary, assignee, or delegatee. This identification is crucial as it sets the stage for further analysis.Validity and Vesting: Assess whether the third party's rights have become permanent. Timing is key here, as it dictates the enforceability of these rights.Rights and Defenses: Analyze what claims can be brought against the third party and who they can sue. This step involves understanding the legal standing and potential defenses.Modifications and Novation: Consider if the original parties have altered the contract before the third party's rights became final. This can significantly impact the third party's legal standing.Breach and Remedies: Finally, evaluate what happens when the contract falls apart. Understanding who is liable and the available remedies is crucial for a comprehensive analysis.Historical Context and Modern ImplicationsThe doctrine of privity of contract historically limited legal actions to the original parties. However, landmark cases like Lawrence V. Fox have expanded these rights, allowing intended beneficiaries to enforce contracts. This evolution reflects the law's adaptation to ensure fairness and prevent unjust enrichment.Mastering the ExamBy following this structured approach, law students can confidently tackle even the most complex exam questions on third party rights. Remember, contracts are dynamic, and understanding their full lifecycle is key to mastering this area of law.Subscribe NowStay updated with more insights and tips on mastering contract law by subscribing to our newsletter.TakeawaysThird party rights are essential in contract law.Understanding the roles of beneficiaries is crucial.Vesting of rights locks in a beneficiary's claims.Defenses can be raised against third party claims.Assignment transfers rights, while delegation transfers duties.Priority conflicts can complicate assignments.Novation requires consent from all parties involved.UCC rules provide specific guidelines for assignments.A structured framework helps analyze complex scenarios.Mastering these principles is key for legal exams.contracts, third party rights, beneficiaries, assignment, delegation, novation, UCC, legal obligations, standing, contract law

The Department of Transport is set to extend the validity of driving licences from five to eight years, a move long sought by South Africans frustrated with long queues, repeated system failures, and delays at licensing centres, while progress is also being made on a digital driving licence that could form part of the MyMzansi platform. Stefanie Fick, executive director of the accountability division of the Organisation for Undoing Tax Abuse, speaks to Lester Kiewit about how the extension will save motorists time and money, reduce pressure on the country’s unreliable licence-printing system, and the broader context of repeated delays by previous transport ministers, highlighting why this reform is seen as long overdue.

Speed is winning deals, but speed is also feeding fraud. We sit down with CRC Specialty Professional Lines Broker Mark Waldeck to unpack the messy middle where e‑signatures, legacy policy language, and decentralized bank controls collide. From the difference between a simple e‑signature and a cryptographically protected digital signature to why underwriters hesitate when controls vary by department, we map the risk pathways that turn convenience into claims friction.We examine a headline‑grabbing fraud where a bank funded a multimillion‑dollar loan to an impersonator despite notary involvement and remote verification. The dispute with the insurer highlights a wider issue: policy forms born in the era of signature cards are being stretched to cover today's remote closings, and the gaps show up at the worst time. If you work with financial institutions, you'll get a practical checklist to help ensure your banking clients are protected, from enforcing MFA and encryption to tightening scrutiny as transaction size grows. Tune in to understand how small cracks in verification can become multimillion-dollar failures—and what you can do right now to help clients stay ahead of emerging fraud risks.

On the latest episode of Workplace Stories, we sit down with Koreen Pagano, author of "Building a Skills-Based Organization," to talk about one of the hottest and most complex topics in the world of work: how organizations can become truly skills-based, and what that really means in today's rapidly changing, AI-driven landscape. The conversation was loaded with practical insights, candid stories, and wisdom from the front lines of workforce transformation.Koreen shares her journey from ed-tech and product leadership to guiding hundreds of organizations through the maze of skills transformation. We discuss the crucial front-of-house and back-of-house elements, from clear communication and partnership models to building the right data and technology infrastructure. You'll hear fresh perspectives on using skills data as an early signal for retention, the shifting role of tasks versus skills, and what it means to future-proof your workforce for ongoing change. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...[05:17] Skills vs job architecture approaches.[10:04] Navigating skills-based organizations.[14:33] Workforce data challenges with AI.[23:04] Skills over jobs for strategy.[27:04] Building resilient data systems.[34:33] Building trust in skill data.[39:32] Predicting employee retention through data.[45:59] Helping organizations align AI transformation with business goals.Why Skills Still Matter in a “Task-Talk” WorldThere's a persistent misconception that the age of “skills” has passed and that “tasks” offer a more practical lens, especially with AI in play. Koreen shares how, at a recent industry event, she heard professionals say, “We don't need to worry about skills, we have to focus on tasks.” But she thinks that it's misguided to abandon skills just when organizations are barely starting to understand and leverage them.While tasks describe the work to be done, skills reflect the underlying human (and sometimes machine) capabilities that make that work possible. Both are crucial, but without a foundational understanding of your organization's skills, mapping tasks is like building on sand.Front of House, Back of House, and Getting Skills RightWe need to balance “front of house” and “back of house” considerations when building a skills-based organization. Organizations often focus either on external communications, partnerships, and culture (front of house), or purely on technology, data, and infrastructure (back of house), but rarely both. Koreen is unique in straddling the two, and it's this holistic approach, blending people and process with tech and data, that sets successful organizations apart.The Evolution of Data and the Rise of Skills VerificationOrganizations are beginning to realize that their skills data isn't just about upskilling or reskilling; it's tightly connected to business-critical outcomes like retention, performance, and the ability to adapt to market shifts. Koreen shares compelling examples of using skills data to provide early warning on issues like employee retention, demonstrating data-driven HR in action.She also shared her pragmatic “3Vs” model for validating skills data: Validity (how well the data measures what it claims to), Variety (different types of data from varied sources), and Volume (quantity and frequency of data collected). You can make solid business decisions with basic self-reported skills data, but for higher-stakes calls, like hiring, you need much more rigorous, validated information.Jobs, Skills, and the Trap of Static StructuresOften, organizations anchor their skills strategy to their job architecture. Consultants and technology vendors frequently push companies to start by mapping skills to static jobs. We discuss why this is a dangerous place to “end”, because jobs, roles, and the tasks that define them are changing faster than ever, especially with AI in the mix. Koreen advocates for designing skills data that is flexible, lives independently, and can be mapped to jobs and tasks as they evolve, never becoming held hostage by legacy structures.Goals Over TasksPerhaps the most powerful call to action was the need to focus less on micromanaging the “how” (a long list of tasks) and more on the “what and why”, the goals, outcomes, and genuine business objectives. In a future where work is constantly shifting, organizations that empower people around purpose, supported by dynamic skills data, will outperform those stuck mapping today's tasks to yesterday's job charts.Building a skills-based organization isn't a project with a tidy endpoint, it's a transformation. As Koreen reminds us, it's hard, messy, and as much about culture as it is about data. But for the organizations (and the people) willing to experiment, adapt, and keep skills at the center of strategy, the payoff is a workforce that's ready for whatever comes next. Resources & People MentionedBuilding the Skills-Based Organization: A Blueprint for Transformation by Koreen Pagano Connect with Koreen PaganoKoreen Pagano on LinkedIn Connect With Red Thread ResearchWebsite: Red Thread ResearchOn LinkedInOn FacebookOn TwitterSubscribe to WORKPLACE STORIES

Platonism for the masses? Validity and efficacy of the Mass? Does God wills evil? This and more on today's Called to Communion with Dr. David Anders.

Dr. Kevin Munger, Assistant Professor and Chair of Computational Social Science in the Department of Political and Social Sciences at the European University Institute, discusses the concept of temporal validity in social media research. Dr. Munger breaks down why thinking about time is an important component of meta-science, particularly when it comes to evaluating the methodologies of social media research. We also discuss the Meta 2020 Election Research partnership, new pathways in social media research, the logic of quantitative description, and the challenges of political communication in the current grant funding and interdisciplinary landscape of political research. Here are the two articles we discuss in the episode: Temporal Validity as Meta-Science (2023)What Did We Learn about Political Communication from the Meta2020 Partnership? (2024)And links to Dr. Munger's latest books:The YouTube Apparatus (2024)The Generation Gap: Why the Baby Boomers Still Dominate American Politics and Culture (2022)

In this episode of the Post-Grant Podcast, Andy Zappia and Bryan Smith break down the USPTO's proposed rule for IPR and PGR proceedings designed to limit multiple validity challenges to patents. They discuss how the proposed rule would limit access to those proceedings, including a mandatory stipulation requirement, an automatic denial of institution if another tribunal has rendered a determination on validity, timing-based denials when parallel cases are likely to finish first, and a proposed narrow "extraordinary circumstances" exception. They also discuss practical implications for forum selection and strategy ahead of the November 17 comment deadline for the proposed rule. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we cover the arraignment of former FBI Director James Comey. Host Jessica Levinson explains the charges against Comey and outlines his defense strategies, including claims of vindictive prosecution and challenges to the validity of the prosecutor's appointment. Tune in as Jessica breaks down the legal complexities and what this high-profile case means for the broader landscape of justice.Here are three key takeaways from the episode:Challenge to Validity of Appointment: Comey's defense intends to argue that the U.S. attorney who brought the indictment, Lindsey Halligan, may not have been validly appointed. If successful, the charges can't simply be refiled due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.Selective and Vindictive Prosecution Motions: The defense plans to file motions asserting that the prosecution was brought with political animus and lacked objective justification—raising important questions about equal protection and due process under the law.High Bar for Prosecution: To secure a conviction, prosecutors must prove that Comey knowingly made false statements and intentionally obstructed Congress—standards that can be difficult to meet, especially with the complex context and timing of the indictment.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

What if Flight MH370 wasn't just lost, but simply became hidden from view? In this episode with controversial youtuber Ashton Forbes, we take the mystery seriously: not as magic, but as a challenge to what we think we know about plasma, quantum mechanics, and fusion. The question isn't about belief, but about possibility: if teleportation happened, what physical mechanisms could explain it? We're at the edge of reason for this one, where mystery bashes up again rationality.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs09Ashton's YT Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@UCHmFQzkpaJBSDD1PPFhPPSg 00:00 Go!

This conversation delves into the complexities of authentication in evidence law, focusing on the Federal Rules of Evidence, particularly Article IX. It explores the practical methods for authenticating evidence, the challenges posed by digital evidence, the critical role of chain of custody, and the implications of spoliation. The discussion also highlights the distinction between authentication and relevance, the standards for expert testimony, and provides practical guidance for law students preparing for exams and legal practice.TakeawaysAuthentication is crucial for establishing the reliability of evidence.The judge's role is to determine if evidence can be considered by a jury.Rule 901 outlines the basic requirements for authentication.Digital evidence presents unique challenges due to its manipulability.Chain of custody is essential for maintaining evidence integrity.Spoliation can lead to severe legal consequences.Relevance and authentication are distinct legal hurdles.Expert testimony must meet specific admissibility standards.Law students should anticipate authentication objections in court.Understanding the evolving nature of evidence law is vital for legal professionals.authentication, evidence law, Federal Rules of Evidence, digital evidence, chain of custody, spoliation, relevance, expert testimony, law students, legal practice

Nassim Haramein, mathematical physicist and director of the International Space Federation, has spent three decades chasing the holy grail of science — unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity. Building on Einstein and Rosen's 1930s equations, wormholes, and failed proton radius predictions, Haramein claims a simple tweak unlocks the secrets of the proton, the strong force, gravity, and the fluid dynamics of spacetime itself. In this conversation, we explore zero-point energy, the quantum vacuum, and a vision for future technologies rooted in a unified theory of physics.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs09Follow Nassim at https://spacefed.com/00:00 Go!

Most people think clients quit the gym because they're lazy, but the truth is far more surprising. In this episode of Sweat Success, Jason Moore, founder of Spren and Elite HRV, reveals how AI and cutting-edge biometric tech are transforming the way coaches and gym owners keep clients engaged, motivated, and coming back.From breaking the myth that exercise alone drives weight loss, to shifting the focus from “losing fat” to building muscle, Jason uncovers the real levers for retention and long-term client success. You'll also hear how AI can augment (not replace) coaches, deliver personalized feedback 24/7, and eliminate the gym intimidation factor that keeps 75% of people from even walking in the door.

On this episode of Exploring Art, Alea and Sam discuss Carl Andre's Equivalent Series, a work that has induced both yawns and rage in the art world. With a modern lens, given the age of the internet and social media, we examine how minimalism manifests differently now and how the question of valid art still remains the same. We discuss Carl Andre, his journey, the Equivalent series, and how money does not always buy good art.

While we've been discussing how to move away from just getting parents to buy in to proposed behavioral treatments, there's still a huge gap between what works, what parents are told could work, and what parents like (when everything works). So we decided to kick off our Special Guest Month by having two experts at parent training, Drs. Roseanne Lesack and Jillian Wilson, help us figure out how to effectively promote better social validity practices when collaborating with parents. We revisit the classic Allen and Warzak article on parental nonadherence and delve deeply into what treatment ideas parents prefer at almost any child's age. Plus: the secret history of validating statements! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU. Articles discussed this episode: Allen, K.D. & Warzak, W.J. (2000).

  Where in the world am I? Brazil planning Hi there. I'm Dr. Mary Travelbest, returning from a recent trip to Asia. I'm in San Diego now, sharing my best travel ideas and working on another book for you to enjoy: 5 Steps to Solo Travel, Part C. I'm about to launch on a 90-day trip around the world. Listener Story Spotlight I want to tell you about a listener named Juliana who is from Brazil. She was a student of mine and now she works with me. She gave me a list of all the places in Brazil that I should be going to.She and I have known each other for 3 years. She's so beautiful and full of life. I'm so grateful for. Quick fire FAQ: The FAQ for today is:  Should I carry books with me to read on the trip? I recommend you download them from your local or cloud library. Then you read on the go. Don't carry more than you need. 3 things: neighborhood selection, daylight itineraries, scam avoidance Select neighborhoods that are walkable and have public transportation nearby if you don't drive. Read reviews on the AirBNB website before you select. When booking a flight or train, be sure it arrives at a daylight time, which can differ in winter months. If it comes after dark, it will be more of a challenge for you.  To avoid scams, be cautious when choosing passwords, logging out of websites, and making online purchases. These are very typical scams. If you are suspicious, you may be right to avoid that vendor and choose another. Don't look like a target, either   Today's destination is: Brazil.

Maybe you want to travel because you never saw these places while you raised your children and supported the family. You may want to visit where you were born and want to do it on your own. You may want to lie on a beach in Tahiti and have a long nap. How does one get to do this? We will help you with instruction, guidance, and good stories. This book must be published now because 14.8% of women are over 65, and most outlive their spouses. Another large chunk of women are in their 50s and early 60s and have years of activity to go. Plus, there are 38 million members of AARP, many looking for active choices on how they live and travel.  Gone are the days of your travel agent booking your paper airline ticket. You will not likely contact a travel agent for your trip. The more we understand others and their cultures, the more we can get along with them. Dr. Mary Travelbest is like Rick Steves for Women adventure travelers who are seasoned in years but have yet to gain travel experience. My daughter, my co-author, Tina, and I have been traveling since she was born 22 years ago. She's also made many solo trips, including visiting her sister in China for a month this year. She's completed her degree in Business, working on a Master's degree, and living/working in the San Francisco area. This book needs to be published so the Golden Years can be just that for those who like active travel.    The take away mantra is to go and find peace where you rest and bring good to others    You can travel solo and never be alone. Dr. Travelbest.

In this episode of Spamageddon, hosts Jay Schwedelson, Danielle Gallant, and Guy Hanson debate whether swapping email-sending platforms will magically solve deliverability woes—or if bad practices simply follow you.

In this first episode of Spamageddon—a five‑part crossover between Email After Hours and Do This, Not That—hosts Jay Schwedelson, Guy Hanson, and Danielle Gallant tackle the biggest myths in email deliverability while keeping things lively with a rapid‑fire “You Have Ten Seconds” game.

This Tuesday, don't miss a special highlight episode as we gear up for an unforgettable conversation dropping this Thursday.Wesley Huff, Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada, shares with the guys how his debate with Billy Carson unexpectedly led to an invitation from Joe Rogan to appear on his podcast. During their conversation, Rogan seemed more open to Christianity than in the past, acknowledging Jesus as a historical figure and recognizing Christianity's value. Wes and the guys discuss the reliability of scripture, citing historical accuracy and external evidence, and recommend Scribes and Scripture for further exploration. They note a cultural shift from atheism to seeing Christianity as useful, as seen in figures like Jordan Peterson, and express hope that God is working through them. Emphasizing that salvation comes through faith rather than intellectual arguments, Wes explains that even those who witnessed Jesus' miracles did not always believe. He also touches on the formation of the biblical canon, explaining how early Christians carefully discerned which writings were truly inspired to preserve the integrity of God's word.Send us a textThanks for listening!
