Tour de France Femmes begins Monday!

After the long pause from the 2024 Paris Olympics (which has been pretty great, tbh) we finally begin the Tour de France Femmes on Monday, August 12!

We're looking at eight stages, with the riders rolling out from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, where they will spend most of three days on 2.5 stages around Rotterdam. We say 2.5 stages, because Tuesday features two different stages, a short sprint stage and then an evening time trial. We don't know how we feel about these types of stages, but at least it will showcase different riders' talents.

Stage 4 on Wednesday will see the riders cross into Belgium and travel parts of the routes for Amstel Gold Race and Liege-Bastogne-Liege, including the famous hills like the Cauberg and the Cote de la Roche-aux-Faucons. And then finally, on Thursday, the Tour de France actually reaches France, and we will see increasingly mountainous stages that should determine the general classification, including finales on Le Grand-Bornand and the infamous Alp d'Huez.

As for GC, the odds-on favorite has to be defending TdFF champ Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime), who as we have said this year, is the best climber and stage-racer in the world right now. Cycling News has a great run-down for the other challengers, however, which we recommend.

It will be interesting to see how other strong teams like Canyon-SRAM and Lidl-Trek can put SD Worx under pressure. We've seen that in the Tour de Suisse and it can be done, but frankly, Vollering is so dominant right now that she might still win even if she's isolated on half the stages. She is just that good. Keep an eye on riders like Neve Bradbury (Canyon-SRAM) or Evita Muzic (FDJ-Suez) as possible spoilers, and definitely contenders for the podium.

We honestly don't know how the fight for the points jersey will go, and we're excited to see how that plays out across the stages. Defending green jersey wearer Marianne Vos (Visma Lease-a-Bike) will want to repeat, but she'll have some serious competition from Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx-Protime), who is still the fastest pure sprinter in the world and has shown she can get over the hills remarkably well. We'd love to see Elisa Balsamo (Lidl-Trek) back to winning ways after being off the bike due to injury.

We are less optimistic about the competition for the polka-dot jersey, and think it will likely be swept up by the GC winner. But that isn't always the case, like in the Giro this year, and we'd love to see some breakaway action and a non-GC rider try to hold onto that jersey.

We also expect several teams to hunt stages and keep several of the stages entertaining. EF-Oatly-Cannondale has been on a rampage this year, scooping up stages in the Vuelta Feminina and the Giro d'Italia Women, and they have the firepower to do it again with Alison Jackson, Kim Cadzow, Clara Emond, or Kristen Faulkner. Another team to watch is AG Insurance-Soudal, which has options in Tour Down Under champ Sarah Gigante, Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio, and Giro mountains classification winner Justine Ghekiere.

And finally, we expect to be surprised! We'd love to see a new talent announce herself on the biggest stage of the season, that's part of what we love about bike racing. This year's course is less likely to be an SD Worx show like last year (5 out of 8 stages), particularly with Lotte Kopecky not on the start list, so we are looking forward to some surprise moves and performances that will keep the racing interesting all the way to the top of Alp d'Huez!

When You Are Not With Me | Dr. Partha Banerjee (Author)

All are escapists One by one all of my friends Decided to leave me'but do you know

When you are not with me Then only you stay maximum time I walk and I feel you too Are all along walking with me

I go to bazaar I buy all those items you normally like Though I know you are not with me now More surprisingly you cook for me, tell me how

I talk to myself I get answers from you I sit for food you sat too I do what ever I need to do You watch all silently too

So, now for everything In my gossip, my talk, my story, My song and even in my poetry I keep you always with me

You stay whole day So long I am not sleeping But you only come in my sleep When I am dreaming

You are escapist, I am lonely You have left but I am…….

Book Review: The Perfect Journey by Dr. Partha Protim Banerjee

The Perfect Journey by Dr. Partha Protim Banerjee is an opportune and reflective account of the all-engulfing issue of corporate intolerance. With experience from Indian and multinational corporations, Banerjee himself weaves a tapestry of insights with regard to the multidimensional challenge and opportunities available to create an inclusive corporate environment.

Behind it all is the personal story that gives an unparalleled perspective to the general discussion on intolerance. It would be from his daughter striving for equality in an American multinational company that Banerjee would provide the story that deeply resonates with individuals navigating their workplaces around the world. This further personalizes the cause of the subject matter into one of real importance and urgency.

Banerjee uses a multidisciplinary approach in dissects several dimensions of corporate intolerance, drawing on sociology, psychology, ethics, economics, and organizational behavior to provide an analysis that could not have been covered merely within the ambit of business. This approach deepens readers' understanding not only of the root causes of intolerance but also of the complex interplay between individual behaviors and organizational policies that sustain this social vice.

Perhaps one of the strong points of the book The Perfect Journey is that it focuses on two major aspects: diagnosing problems and providing actionable solutions to resolve those problems. Banerjee does not stop at enumerating instances of intolerance but goes all the way to engage actively with ways of combating these issues. His ideas for transformative change in corporate culture regarding inclusivity, equity, and justice are practical while being visionary in empowering people at every level in an organization to be agents of such change.

It is at once a work of critical analysis and a roadmap for change. This book dares corporate leaders, policy operatives, scholars, and practitioners to think differently and to work differently-that is, to reshape dominant logics through which corporations address issues of diversity and inclusion. Banerjee's work serves as a clarion call to create workplaces where diversity is celebrated rather than noticed, and inclusivity forms part of the organizational fiber.

The Perfect Journey is, therefore, a book that no individual apprehensive about understanding and promoting corporate culture can miss reading. Personal experience, complemented by scholarly analysis, has made the work of Dr. Banerjee impressively pragmatic for readers committed to creating equitable and inclusive business environments. The comprehensively analyzed and recommended paths to implementation make the book a hopeful trajectory forward in the pursuit of a genuinely inclusive corporate world.

WAT.

Earth-shaking news in the women's peloton as Anna van der Breggen announces she is coming out of retirement to return to road racing with SD Worx-Protime.

We are shocked. Shocked!

Look, AvdB has never really been away from the sport or her team, she's been in in a directeur sportif role for SD Worx in the past three seasons. Some of the DS calls have been, shall we say, unusual, but she's been a fixture there. And certainly, she hasn't gotten out shape, AvdB has been dabbling in gravel racing, most notably in the Spanish gravel race Traka, where she finished second and beat some of her own teammates. But we're still pretty surprised, and we also wonder if this brewing development propelled Demi Vollering out (reportedly to FDJ-Suez).

We also wonder if AvdB hasn't been tempted by the development and maturity of the Women's World Tour calendar. She never got a chance to race the Tour de France Femmes or the Vuelta Feminina before she retired, but with four wins and three additional podium places in the Giro, she's probably an immediate contender for both next year. Assuming, of course, that she's still got it. But we don't see why not, and her compatriot, Annemiek van Vleuten showed how strong a mature rider can be.

In case anyone needs a reminder of what "it" she had, let's just look back to the 2020 World Championships in Imola, Italy, and one of the single coolest racing shots we can remember.

So smooth, so deadly—this is a rider that changed the peloton, and apparently will do so again.

The Best INR Finger Prick Machines for Seniors

Monitoring blood health is crucial for seniors, especially for those on anticoagulant therapy. One vital aspect is regularly checking the International Normalized Ratio (INR), which measures how long it takes blood to clot. The best INR finger prick machines for seniors offer convenience, accuracy, and ease of use, allowing individuals to manage their health from the comfort of their homes. In this blog, we’ll explore the top options available and what features make them stand out.

Why INR Testing is Important for Seniors

Seniors often take anticoagulants to prevent blood clots, which can lead to serious conditions like strokes or heart attacks. Regular INR testing ensures that the medication dosage is effective yet safe. Too high an INR can cause excessive bleeding, while too low an INR can lead to clotting. Having a reliable INR finger prick machine helps seniors and their caregivers monitor these levels accurately and make necessary adjustments.

When selecting the best INR finger prick machines for seniors, consider the following factors:

. Ease of Use: The device should be user-friendly with clear instructions and an intuitive interface.

.  Display: A large, easy-to-read display is beneficial for seniors with vision impairments.

. Proper Technique: Ensure your hands are clean and follow the recommended procedure for obtaining a blood sample.

. Regular Calibration: Some devices may require periodic calibration to maintain accuracy.

. Consistent Testing Times: Test your INR levels at the same time each day for consistent results.
