Encounters with Yowies in the Alpine Region of VictoriaLasting Impact of Yowie SightingsAnother reality-altering and life-changing Yowie encounter has left a profound effect on those who witnessed it. For many, the impact of seeing a Yowie stays with them for a lifetime, marking a significant event in their lives.The Alpine Region: A Remote Yowie HabitatThe Alpine region of Victoria stands as a vast, rugged terrain, largely unrepresented and sparsely populated. With fewer people inhabiting the area, there are naturally fewer opportunities for Yowie encounters, yet this does not mean there are fewer Yowies. In fact, it is possible that more Yowies inhabit the Victorian high country than the Blue Mountains, simply going unseen due to the lack of human presence. The region is even more expansive than the Blue Mountains and Wollemi National Park west of Sydney, but with far fewer residents.Yowie Sightings and BehaviourEpisodes have been recorded of past aggressive Yowie encounters, including incidents where humans were physically attacked while sleeping. Such reports contribute to the ongoing mystery and intrigue surrounding these creatures.Variation in AppearanceYowies are not always depicted as dark or brown creatures. Like the Yeti, Yowies can also be white. In some encounter reports, especially those from snowy elevations, the lighter colouration is noted. This variation in colour may be attributed to evolutionary factors associated with their environment.For more comprehensive information, reports and history of the Yowie, visit our Website at www.yowiehunters.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/yowiehunters-witness-reports.

Send us a textHuman metabolism, primate evolution, and modern health challenges with evolutionary anthropologist Herman Pontzer.Episode Summary: Anthropologist Dr. Herman Pontzer discusses human evolution and metabolism, comparing humans to primates like chimps and gorillas to explain our higher energy use, bigger brains, and longer lives despite trade-offs in reproduction and activity; they discuss dietary shifts from plant-based to hunting-gathering, metabolic adaptations, and modern issues like obesity, where exercise aids health but diet drives weight loss, emphasizing ultra-processed foods' role in overeating and the promise of new drugs like GLP-1 agonists.About the guest: Herman Pontzer, PhD is a professor of evolutionary anthropology and global health at Duke University. He is the author of books like "Burn" and "Adaptable," which explore how bodies adapt to diets, activity, and environments.Discussion Points:Humans burn 20% more daily energy than other primates (controlling for body size), enabling big brains, more babies, and longer lives, but requiring efficient food strategies like hunting and gathering.Unlike apes, humans evolved smaller guts, higher body fat (15-30% vs. apes'

Dive into the intricate world of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) with our latest episode. Designed for law students and professionals alike, this episode unpacks the UCC's foundational principles, focusing on its role in simplifying and modernizing commercial transactions. Explore key articles, from sales and secured transactions to negotiable instruments, and understand how the UCC fosters uniformity and flexibility in the ever-evolving landscape of commerce. Whether you're preparing for exams or seeking practical insights, this episode is your essential guide to mastering the UCC.Purpose of the UCC: The UCC aims to simplify, clarify, and modernize the law governing commercial transactions. It also seeks to permit the continued expansion of commercial practices through custom, usage, and agreement, and to make the law uniform among various jurisdictions.Variation by Agreement: The effect of UCC provisions can be varied by agreement, unless otherwise specified. However, the obligations of good faith, diligence, reasonableness, and care cannot be disclaimed by agreement, though parties may determine the standards for performance if those standards are not manifestly unreasonable.Definition of "Agreement" vs. "Contract": "Agreement" refers to the actual bargain of the parties as found in their language or implied from circumstances like course of dealing or usage of trade. "Contract" is the total legal obligation that results from the parties' agreement as affected by the UCC and other applicable rules of law.Good Faith Obligation: Every contract or duty within Subtitle I imposes an obligation of good faith in its performance or enforcement. This means parties must act with honesty in fact and, in the case of a merchant, observe reasonable commercial standards of fair dealing.Formation of a Sales Contract: A contract for the sale of goods can be made in any manner sufficient to show agreement, including conduct by both parties. Even if one or more terms are left open, a contract does not fail for indefiniteness if the parties intended to make one and there is a reasonably certain basis for an appropriate remedy.Statute of Frauds for Sales: A contract for the sale of personal property is generally not enforceable beyond $5,000 in amount or value unless there is a writing indicating a contract for sale, stating a price, reasonably identifying the subject matter, and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. This specific rule does not apply to contracts for the sale of goods covered by Article 2.Merchantability Warranty: If the seller is a merchant with respect to goods of the kind, an implied warranty of merchantability is given, meaning the goods must be fit for the ordinary purposes for which such goods are used, among other requirements. This includes the serving of food or drink for value.Holder in Due Course Requirements: To be a holder in due course, a person must take the instrument for value, in good faith, and without notice that it is overdue, has been dishonored, or has any defense against or claim to it on the part of any person. These elements ensure the holder is a legitimate and unsuspecting party.Security Interest Definition: A "security interest" is defined as an interest in personal property or fixtures that secures payment or performance of an obligation. A seller's retention or reservation of title to goods after shipment or delivery to the buyer is limited in effect to a reservation of a security interest.Scope of Article 9 (Secured Transactions): Article 9 applies to any transaction intended to create a security interest in personal property or fixtures (including goods, documents, instruments, accounts, contract rights, chattel paper, general intangibles) and to any sale of accounts, contract rights, or chattel paper. It broadly covers various forms of security agreements.

Uplift Modeling hilft dabei, den tatsächlichen Effekt von Maßnahmen wie Rabatten oder Gratisprodukten auf das Verhalten einzelner Kund*innen vorherzusagen, also: Wer hätte ohnehin gekauft und wen überzeugen wir wirklich? Statt bloßer Vorhersage steht die Frage im Mittelpunkt, wie wir Verhalten gezielt verändern können. Wir sprechen über Methoden, notwendige Daten, Herausforderungen bei der Modellierung und warum Kausalität hier entscheidend ist. Außerdem sprechen wir darüber warum ein A/B-Test trotz komplexer Modelle unverzichtbar bleibt. Und was du auch ohne vollständiges Uplift-Modell bereits tun kannst.   **Zusammenfassung** Uplift Modeling zielt darauf ab, den kausalen Effekt eines Treatments (z. B.

An example of what it looks like to enter in to freedom.

In this unfiltered conversation, I sit down with renowned sex and relationship coach Caitlin V. to explore the truths about male performance anxiety, orgasms, slowing down intimacy, and why men might be misunderstanding their own desires — and women's. We discuss how societal pressures create performance myths, the importance of pacing and communication in the bedroom, why curiosity beats confidence, and the misconceptions around anal play, identity, and masculinity. Plus, Caitlin shares her wildest orgasm story and the fantasy she hasn't tried… yet.

Was haben Frauenschuhe, das vierte Stockwerk und Sprachwissenschaft miteinander zu tun? Dieser Frage gehen wir in der aktuellen Folge „Sprachpfade“ nach und entdecken einen ganz besonderen Zweig der Linguistik – die Soziolinguistik. Wir schauen uns ein spannendes soziolinguistisches Experiment von William Labov an, welches bereits 1966 in den USA durchgeführt worden ist. Dabei wurde eine höchst interessante Beobachtung gemacht: Menschen unterschiedlicher sozialer Schichten sprechen messbar unterschiedlich. Diesem Befund gehen wir nach uns schauen uns an, wie die Soziolinguistik heute auf die Frage antwortet, ob Sprachgebrauch von sozialer Schicht abhängt. Wenn das noch nicht genug Motivation war, die Folge anzuklicken, gibt hier noch einen kleinen Bonus: JLO spielt in dieser Folge eine überraschend wichtige Rolle. Hört gerne rein!

On today's show, Alex and Calvin continue their series on “AI” and public discourse, focusing this time on the increasing proliferation of AI applications in government writing, policy, and social media. We characterize the second Trump administration as the "first totally post-AI presidency," which has adopted the "dumbest, most unreflective, most uncritical approach" to AI's use in communication, research, and analysis. Throughout the show, we emphasize how AI technologies are themselves rhetorical artifacts at the same time as they so often produce “bad” rhetoric, reflecting the intentions, values, and presuppositions of their creators, as well as the inherent biases of their training data and text generation models. This often results in an entry-level, overly dense writing style - often referred to as "slop" - which is almost written not to be read, but rather to fill space.We explore several concerning examples of AI's uncritical adoption by the secondTrump administration and their acolytes in the tech world. Early executive orders exhibited AI-generated formatting errors and formulaic, generic language, demonstrating a context-blind style that could lead to legal problems and erode public trust. Furthermore, the "MAHA Report" from the Office of Health and Human Services was found to fabricate studies and misrepresent findings, reflecting how large language models are "sycophantic," and can reinforce existing (often false) beliefs. Our discussion also covers Palantir's "Foundry" product, which aims to combine diverse government datasets, raising significant privacy and political concerns, especially given the political leanings of Palantir's founders. Finally, we examine xAI's Grok chatbot (run by Elon Musk), which illustrates how tech elites can exert incredible political power through direct interventions in AI tools' system prompts - which in recent months has led Grok to parrot conspiracy theories and make explicit antisemitic remarks on the public feeds of X/Twitter.Ultimately, our analyses emphasizes - once again - that these so-called “AI” technologies are not neutral; they are, in the words of Matteo Pasquinelli, "crystallization[s] of a productive social process" that "reinforce the power structure that underlies [them]," perpetuating existing inequalities. Understanding these mechanisms and engaging in what Pasquinelli terms "de-connectionism" - undoing the social and economic fabric constituting these systems - is essential for critiquing the structural factors and power dynamics that AI reproduces in public discourse.Have any questions or concerns about this episode?

In this solo episode, we take a deep dive into the many variables that influence young vine training in different climates. Listeners will gain a clear understanding of how climate, trellis selection, rootstock vigor, and regional weather risks shape vine training strategies. Fritz explains how cold-climate growers often rely on double trunks or “spare parts viticulture” to prepare for winter damage, while warmer-climate vineyards may benefit from fast-tracking techniques like green topping and one-shoot training for quicker vineyard establishment. We walk through scenarios where single-trunk systems are ideal, when to consider double trunks, and how the practice of renewing trunks every few years can extend vine longevity. We also break down when to use green topping, how to avoid bull canes, and why mature leaves on developing trunks should never be removed.  Growers will leave this episode with specific, actionable tips to match their training approach to their unique vineyard conditions, helping them improve both short-term success and long-term vineyard health. In this episode, you will hear: Differences between trellis systems and vine training systems When and why to use single vs. double trunk strategies What “spare parts viticulture” is and where it makes sense Green topping and other fast-tracking methods explained How to manage training for high- and low-vigor vineyard sites Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

Beim Teutates! Wir reden endlich über ASTERIX & OBELIX: DER KAMPF DER HÄUPTLINGE. Also Alwin und Daniel reden über ASTERIX & OBELIX: DER KAMPF DER HÄUPTLINGE und haben sich dafür einen idealen Gast ins Studio geholt, da Matthias leider keine Zeit hatte: der Comedian, Nerd und vor allem ASTERIX-Fachmann Hennes Bender ist zu Besuch und nutzt die Gelegenheit, um mit den beiden dann auch noch über die 4. Staffel von LOVE, DEATH + ROBOTS zu parlieren. Und so geht es um Comic, um Grafiken, um Grafik-Stile oder -Variation, um die eigene Jugend und natürlich die Schwierigkeiten von Anthologie-Serien oder warum es Genre-Produktionen generell so schwer haben in Deutschland. Außerdem hat Hennes noch seinen neuen Podcast DER HEISSE SCHEISS und eine weitere Netflix-Serie mitgebracht, die er gerade mit Begeisterung durch suchtet: DEPT. Q, eine neue, britische, Pardon schottische Adaption der Krimi-Reihe vom dänischen Bestsellerautor Jussi Adler-Olsenum, die sich um den traumatisierten Kopenhagener Kommissar Carl Mørck und seine Fälle dreht. And last but not least liefert Schröck auch noch eine schwärmerische Erklärung dafür ab, warum er immer noch nicht mit THE STUDIO angefangen hat. Sie lautet MERCY FOR NONE, ist quasi die koreanische Antwort auf John Wick und eben ein Tipp von Alwin, der schlichtweg zu gut war. Aber keine Angst, THE STUDIO kriegt auch noch seinen Platz.

Ever thought about why medications work differently for different people? In this episode of Absolute Gene-ius, we explore the exciting field of pharmacogenomics with Wendy Wang, pharmacogenetic laboratory supervisor at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Wendy shares how genetics can influence drug metabolism, offering a glimpse into how precision medicine can revolutionize healthcare by tailoring treatments based on an individual's unique genetic makeup.At the heart of Wendy's research is CYP2D6, a cytochrome P450 enzyme responsible for metabolizing around 20% of all prescribed medications. She explains how her lab uses digital PCR to analyze copy number variations (CNV), offering a reliable and precise method to predict drug metabolism. Wendy dives into the complexities of structural variants, the role of digital PCR in enhancing assay efficiency, and why pharmacogenomics is a critical piece of the precision medicine puzzle. Her use of delightful metaphors—like comparing genetic testing to ladling soup—makes complex science both relatable and engaging.In the Career Corner, Wendy opens up about her winding path to molecular biology, which included studying classical antiquity and nearly pursuing a career in history. She emphasizes the importance of resilience in research, embracing failure as a learning opportunity, and encourages budding scientists to reach out to mentors and explore diverse interests. Plus, hear about her most embarrassing lab mishap (hint: it involves a fire alarm) and the proud moment of publishing her first, first-author paper.Visit the Absolute Gene-ius page to learn more about the guests, the hosts, and the Applied Biosystems QuantStudio Absolute Q Digital PCR System. 

Join JACC Editor in Chief Harlan Krumholz, MD, SM, as he speaks about this ACC.25 presentation published in JACC. This fascinating study by Rohan Khera et al independently analyzed patient-level data from the SURMOUNT trials of tirzepatide for obesity. The study revealed striking individual variability in weight loss and metabolic response, even to a highly effective therapy—an insight powerfully illustrated through waterfall plots. Reviewers praised the transparent, sponsor-independent approach and the study's contribution to precision medicine, though they noted it was descriptive rather than predictive, underscoring the need for future research to identify what drives differential treatment response.

We're talking with Dr Susan Friedman about schedules of reinforcement. Susan is a professor emeritus in the Department of Psychology at Utah State University. She is well known around the world for her very popular on-line course: How Behavior Works: Living & Learning With Animals). She has co-authored chapters on behavior change in five veterinary texts, and her popular articles have been translated into 17 languages. She shares many of those articles on her web site: behavior works.org. It's a great resource for all of us who want to learn more about the natural science of behavior. Susan is a member of the clicker expo faculty. Her presentations at the March Clicker Expo prompted this conversation on schedules of reinforcement. In Part 1 Susan reviewed with us the basics of fixed and variable schedules. She ended with a question about how you get behavior to vary when you are using a continuous reinforcement schedule. That's where we began in Part 2. In Part 2 we took a deeper dive into continuous reinforcement schedules. We considered how you get behavior to vary without using a variable reinforcement schedule. Susan talked about a moving away from transactional training to training with assent. Part 3 Susan helps us to understand schedules of co-variation. She defines conjugate and synchronous schedules and gives some very practical examples, especially as it relates to husbandry procedures that may involve some discomfort. Again she discusses what assent looks like and what it means when an animal says no. What conditions must be present for a conjugate schedule to begin and what conditions mean that the training should stop?

Inspired by the rallying cry for a war history has often forgotten, Remember the Maine is a drink that wears its patriotism on its sleeve, and its vermouth and cherry component with pride. At first glance, it reads like a Manhattan with flair: rye, sweet vermouth, cherry Heering, and a rinse of absinthe. But follow its trail and you'll find a drink that likely evolved from another historical oddity.

In this episode we answer emails from Jeremy, Brad, and James.  We discuss a more aggressive risk-parity portfolio similar to the Weird Portfolio, the problems with data analysis and recency bias and considerations in accounting for Social Security or pensions in retirement portfolio planning.And THEN we our go through our weekly portfolio reviews of the eight sample portfolios you can find at Portfolios | Risk Parity Radio.Additional links:Jeremy's Portfolio on Portfolio Visualizer:  https://www.portfoliovisualizer.com/backtest-asset-class-allocation?s=y&sl=LDhLHuhVF5zOKfTZckLT7Weird Portfolio:  Weird Portfolio – Portfolio ChartsTestfolio Portfolio Comparison (90/10 vs. 50/50):  https://testfol.io/?s=2TDnqWEw5FEBogle Interview (re Social Security):  Jack Bogle on Index Funds, Vanguard, and Investing AdviceKitces Interview (re Social Security):  Social Security: Part of Your Asset Allocation?Breathless AI-Bot Summary:  "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds," begins this episode, capturing the essence of breaking away from conventional investment thinking. Stepping into Frank's metaphorical "dive bar of personal finance," listeners are treated to an exploration of portfolio diversification during turbulent market conditions.Frank tackles three thought-provoking listener questions that challenge common investing assumptions. First, he analyzes a balanced portfolio proposal with equal allocations to large-cap growth, small-cap value, REITs, long-term treasuries, and gold, explaining why this more aggressive risk parity approach shows promising safe withdrawal rates. The conversation shifts to the dangers of recency bias when a listener questions the underperformance of a 50-50 small-cap value/large-cap growth portfolio over just five years. Frank emphasizes that even a decade of data can be "just noise" when evaluating investment strategies, reminding us to focus on performance during challenging market periods rather than recent returns.Perhaps most compelling is Frank's fresh perspective on integrating Social Security into financial planning. Challenging the notion that Social Security should be viewed as fixed-income allocation, he suggests treating it more like an annuity that reduces expenses rather than an asset within your portfolio. This shifts the conversation from wealth preservation to life maximization, encouraging retirees to consider increasing discretionary spending rather than hoarding assets.The weekly portfolio review reveals a fascinating market story: while the S&P 500 has fallen 8.64% year-to-date and small-cap value has plummeted 19.69%, gold has surged 23.12%. This perfect illustration of risk parity principles shows how properly diversified portfolios maintain remarkable stability despite individual asset volatility. The unlevered sample portfolios remain down less than 1% year-to-date, demonstrating the power of hearing that "different drummer" when constructing your investment approach.Have questions about building your own diversified portfolio?

Join JACC Associate Editor Khurram Nasir, MBBS, FACC, and author Rohan Khera, MD, FACC, as they discuss the latest study on tirzepatide presented at ACC.25 and published in JACC. Tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, exerts pleiotropic effects on cardiometabolic health. This study evaluated its efficacy in improving cardiometabolic outcomes in individuals with T2D. An individual participant data meta-analysis was conducted, pooling data from seven Phase 3 RCTs comparing tirzepatide with placebo or standard antihyperglycemic agents. The study outcomes included cardiometabolic components of metabolic syndrome (MetS), elevated BMI, and MetS. Tirzepatide significantly reduced the odds of these abnormalities and effectively resolved MetS, with superior efficacy observed in younger individuals and those not on baseline SGLT2is. These findings support the potential of tirzepatide to improve cardiometabolic health in T2D.

In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses: The practical differences between direct reward conditioning and indirect reward conditioning.  Primacy of learning and conditioning hunting as a means of locating odor. Understanding the foundations built into your dog's early training. Utilize the quality of hunting as the barometer to show your dog's interest. Giving varied and unique hiding places for the odor to your dog in training.  Creating sticky behavior in your dog when searching.  Building variability to maintain behavior over time.   Key Takeaways: In the direct reward methodology, we are pairing hunting and odor recognition. It teaches an olfactory queue to get an obedience behavior. In the indirect methodology, we pair the final response and the odor recognition. Variation in hunting volume and variable reward in finding the target order are extremely important.  Remove handler dependency as much as possible. You don't want your canine to be obsessed with you, your reward delivery, and presentations. You want them to have enough independence to do their work without influence from you.  Mimic what you see in deployment in your training and in-services. Those pictures should be aligned, your dog doesn't know the difference. Clearing blanks is something your dog needs to know how to do because that is what they're going to see often in deployment.   "Variable reward is the thing that's going to really keep your dog at a high level of engagement in the hunting process over longer periods of time and more area that we're asking them to cover, and it's very important to master variation in how you do detection." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare: Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/  Tarheel Canine Student Portal: https://tcstudentportal.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com The Drive Company: https://thedriveco.com/  The Drive Company Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedrive.co      Train Hard, Train Smart, Be Safe.   Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

The cost and quality of care can vary dramatically—even within the same health system. This has real ramifications for patients and clinicians, not to mention system outcomes. But reducing unwarranted variation in clinical care is much easier said than done. In 2019, UNC Health launched a care redesign office to take on the job. They identified 24 sources of variation to target. And their efforts were so successful that five years later, it was time to set their sights on a new list of targets—this time with a partner. In this episode, host Abby Burns invites Cyndi Hall, former Executive Director of Care Redesign at UNC Health, and Dr. Larry Marks, Executive Medical Director for Care Redesign, Professor of Radiation Oncology, and Assistant Dean of Organizational Health and Quality at UNC Health and School of Medicine, to break down the last five years of their care design work. They share how they selected which clinical areas to target, stories of what it means when this work is successful, and through it all, underscore the role of true change agents of this work: the clinicians themselves. Note: Cyndi Hall is now Senior Advisor for Healthcare Plus Solutions Group where she is translating her expertise in care variation reduction to help provider organizations improve the clinician onboarding process. Reducing clinical variation is something Advisory Board is actively researching in 2025.
