US Core CPI Rises Less Than Expected for Fifth Month

00:00 We've got an upside surprise here that kind of makes a little hash of perhaps the treasury secretary's claim that inflation hasn't hit yet. CPI comes it up 3/10 of a percent. The downside surprise, though, is in the core, up just 2/10 of a percent. Both were up a 10th of a percent last month. Year over year we go to 2.7%, which is higher than the anticipated 2.6%. It's a 3/10 percent move up from last month. And core is at 2.9%. That is what was expected last month. It was 2.8%. Let me just quickly mentioned empire manufacturing. It goes up 22 points to a positive 5.5 important because that's July number one of the first July numbers we get. And it is the first time it's been positive since February. Prices paid, though, went up.

New Leostream Platform 2025.1 Adds Significant Enhancements and Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Leostream Corporation today released a significant update to the world-leading Leostream® Remote Desktop Access Platform that adds more features for security, control, performance, and scale-up, plus native support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Platform 2025.1 gives organizations more options for cloud integration, more control of high-performance display protocols, and other benefits that make Leostream the ideal tool for digital workstation management in multi-vendor, multi-cloud/any-cloud and hybrid environments. The new version offers improvements in cloud resource provisioning for better performance and expanded monitoring of virtual machine power states and remote sessions; large enterprises in particular will see immediate benefits provisioning in the cloud at scale. Key additions to Platform 2025 include: Complete control for RHEL 9 As organizations transition away from RHEL 8 (now in maintenance support phase until 2029) and standardize on RHEL 9, the updated Leostream Platform Connection Broker and Gateway can both now install and run on RHEL 9 and its derivatives, such as Rocky and Alma Linux. Customers no longer need to use Windows to run the management plane and can manage the underlying Linux operating system based on their standard corporate policies. Platform 2025.1 now leverages more components of Linux natively, instead of including those packages as part of the platform's installation process. This allows organizations to apply security patches and upgrades to those components, and the underlying OS, according to their security needs. The RHEL 9 Connection Broker also includes several new security enhancements based on feedback from customers. For example, the Connection Broker now leverages the version of PostgreSQL that is installed by the operating system, instead of including the PostgreSQL package as part of the Leostream RPM. This creates a "postgres" user on the machine, who is the superuser so the 'leo' user no longer requires superuser-level permissions. Because of its extensive changes, the updated Connection Broker requires a new installation rather than an in-app upgrade, but customers can easily migrate their existing Leostream configurations to the new Connection Broker, so the process is fast and simple. As RHEL 8 nears the end of its lifecycle, existing Leostream Platform deployments on RHEL 8 will be maintained with bug fixes for one year to support customers who need time to plan their upgrades. Future feature work will be performed on the RHEL 9 version only. The RHEL 9 version of the Connection Broker also removes legacy functionality and third-party integrations. Existing Leostream customers using the RHEL 8 version of the Connection Broker can contact Leostream or reference the Leostream Platform Release Notes to learn if they are impacted. Expanded Features for Amazon Environments In addition to better support for large-scale cloud provisioning for performance, flexibility, and efficiency, Platform 2025.1 improves the user experience while working with GPU-enabled instances in AWS, which can take longer to power cycle. Leostream has also added new ways to manage Amazon DCV, the sophisticated display protocol widely used in environments such as high-performance computing (HPC) and imaging/video applications. Platform 2025.1 gives administrators more control over how it establishes the user's DCV session and can manipulate the DCV permissions for each session. Expanded identity tracking and session recording A core feature of the Leostream Platform is enabling organizations to manage identities in their hosted desktop environment. In many deployments, such as large enterprises and educational institutions, generic usernames may be used to log into and access certain resources rather than unique identities—for example, 'student1' versus the student's IT-assigned Active Directory identity of individual username and password. In these scenarios for Amazon DCV connections, Platform 2025.1 can be configured to map the 'student1' user to the username and password that logged into Leostream. This provides an added level of audit tracking, and shows which specific user is accessing resource even with a generic username. For HTML5 sessions launched through the Leostream Gateway, Platform 2025.1 introduces a new preview feature to record users' remote sessions. These sessions can then be viewed by administrators to ensure appropriate resource usage and stored for auditing purposes. Existing Leostream customers can contact Leostream to enable this new functionality. 'As large enterprise installations become the rule rather than the exception, it's imperative that the Leostream Platform continue to rise to the occasion of increasing security, control, performance, and scalability as well as support for the latest and greatest OSes,' said Karen Gondoly, Leostream CEO. 'Our engineering team, with the assistance and feedback of our customers, has implemented substantial updates in 2025.1 that enable the most modern and advanced digital workstation management.' Leostream Platform 2025.1 is available now via solution providers, channel partners, and direct from Leostream; versions for Amazon and Azure marketplaces will follow. Current customers can update at no additional cost. Leostream channel partners can learn about Platform 2025.1 directly from Leostream experts and access training, sales, and marketing materials in the partner portal at The Leostream Remote Desktop Access Platform for digital workstation management offers a comprehensive solution for remote access to maintain productivity, control costs, and ensure security with strict authentication and authorization built on zero-trust concepts. Its connection management system eliminates clunky corporate VPNs with an ultra-efficient gateway that gives users access to only the specific resources they have permission to use, automatically, regardless of their location or device.

How To Structure Cross-Department Collaboration

Dustin Lemick, founder and CEO of BriteCo, an innovative insurance technology company transforming the retail jewelry insurance experience. We've all heard the sayings 'There's strength in numbers' and 'There's no 'I' in team' repeatedly. But there's a reason these statements continue to resonate and appear on motivational posters that decorate so many offices: because they're true. There are few (if any) businesses that have gotten off the ground with just one person. The fact that a business is referred to as a 'company' is telling. We need partners, collaborators, investors and workers to help bring life to an idea. But beyond just having people at your side, it is important to build a strong team and ensure they all work well together. In my experience as a founder and CEO, establishing and encouraging cross-department collaboration is especially important for fast-growing, growth-phase companies when everything is moving fast and many initiatives are launching simultaneously. Key opportunities and important details can get missed if every department is not on the same page and continually communicating and sharing knowledge. With that in mind, here are three valuable lessons I've learned over the years that you can use to create a solid cross-department team culture. 1. Full-team meetings are important. Consider having 'standup' meetings once a week where the entire staff (leadership and upper management included) meet and share updates, both big and small. This creates a regular opportunity for teams to come together to applaud everyone's efforts and learn what everyone is working on, what developments are happening and where they can support each other. My company amplifies this further with an annual 'all hands' gathering, during which different departments share presentations about achievements, new projects and ideas they may want to get off the ground in the near future. I've found that this route can also grow team members' confidence that everyone is moving in the same direction and that their role is critical to the effort. 2. Teams can grow each others' knowledge. The more knowledge and understanding each employee has about the organization, its current and upcoming projects and its future goals, the more ammunition they have to do their job well. For example, if someone on your marketing team is trying to navigate the intricacies of AI to help them come up with new content ideas, it may be helpful for them to ask the tech team about what they are doing to input AI into the company's processes. This could also lead to conversations with other departments about how best to leverage the growing technology in their own roles. Encouraging this kind of cooperation can help translate team members' best-in-class knowledge across departments. 3. Everyone's role is everyone's business. One great program we have at my company is "job shadowing": Employees are assigned to watch a colleague while they work and ask them questions so they can gain perspective on the different roles in the organization. Consider having your employees log a certain number of job shadowing hours every year with as many departments as possible. Also, encourage team members to attend any open meetings they see on the calendar if they want to learn more about the related topic or project. I've found that fostering this type of positive, open culture results in everybody talking to each other and keeping lines of communication open, both of which are important for the success of a healthy organization. 4. Keep your door open. A key part of successfully creating a cross-department collaborative culture is ensuring the management team is invested. This means being open and communicating effectively with team members at all levels of the organization. For example, every time you hire someone new, tell them that you have an open-door policy—and truly mean it. Your team should know they can approach you anytime to ask questions, share ideas or get feedback, and trust that you'll provide open-book responses. I also recommend ensuring that your onboarding process is very comprehensive so new employees can access all the information they need from day one. Consider scheduling one-on-one meetings with new hires' coworkers in and out of their department, and provide a robust library of educational tools that present a detailed roadmap of your company. 5. See where there's room to improve. To keep fostering cross-department collaboration, it's equally important that you continually evaluate the strategies and procedures you've put in place and look for areas where there is room for improvement. For example, while we have had a number of these processes in place for years, our company recently decided that we should launch an employee recognition program. The program incentivizes everyone to know the intricacies of their colleagues' roles and to provide acknowledgment when a job is well done. Employees get a monthly balance of 'points' that they can give to different coworkers or departments, who can then redeem the points for rewards. Final Thoughts When it comes to fostering a collaborative culture, I have found that quality is more important than quantity. Consider starting with something like reducing the number of less-productive single-department meetings in favor of fewer, more imperative group discussions where key players from different departments can be part of the conversation. When everyone is able to work together without the restriction of departmental boundaries, you can create true harmony between your teams.
