In this episode I'm coming to you from a little patch of sand on T20 Beach in Da Nang, Vietnam. In normal times on a Friday late afternoon I would probably be seeing many tourists on this beach that had just arrived from different cities in Vietnam, East Asia, and Southeast Asia. Due to the pandemic it appears many of these luxury resorts sit quiet waiting for things to open up again. The American Forces dubbed this whole strip of coastline from Son Tra(Monkey Mountain), south to Hoi An, "China Beach" during the Vietnam War. It was an R&R retreat for armed forces stationed throughout the region. The 95th Evacuation Hospital was used as the basis for the fictional 510th Evacuation Hospital in the ABC Television Network series that ran between 1988-91. These are some of the most beautiful beaches in Southeast Asia with something for everyone. If you want a quiet spot or if you want to join a volleyball match or surf that's available to you as well as just observing the life of fisherman on Man Thai Beach at the Northern end of this piece of coastline.

How to Get Your Kid to Eat (Almost) Everything Most parents have faced the challenge of meeting resistance when introducing a child to new foods. As they grow older, mealtimes can become a battleground where power struggles between parent and child ensue. It doesn't have to be this way. You don't have to be a short-order cook, and you don't have to make food that looks like an art project to get your child to eat something besides "kid-friendly" chicken nuggets and grilled cheese. Instilling healthy eating habits in your little one doesn't have to be a pipe dream. As parents, we want to raise children who don't live on junk food, make healthy choices, and reach for whole foods at snack time. However, many of us go about teaching our toddlers and young children all about how "good for you" these foods are, which can backfire. Enter Julie Revelant, today's guest on A Healthy Bite podcast. Listen as Julie shares some tips for getting more vegetables into your child's diet and reducing angst at the dinner table. Julie advocates instilling healthy eating patterns by modeling them to your child while taking the focus off what the food does and putting it on how it makes you feel. Dinnertime can be a peaceful and enjoyable part of your day! Children can learn to enjoy a variety of foods, including healthy snacks (and veggies) from all the food groups.  that your child refuses to eat right now.  Julie's course promises to turn picky eaters into little foodies. (Although, take note, one of the biggest mistakes she's seen parents make is labeling their toddlers' picky eaters the second they refuse to eat.) In this 5-day video email course, you'll learn my best secrets to get your kids to eat their vegetables and try new foods, and help you put an end to picky eating for good.JulieRevelant.com Other articles I recommend: If you want to know how to get your kids to eat better, start with a few article on Julie's site and I've also shared some lunch packing tips (although I do like to make mine look like art) and how to reduce sugar intake.

Drs. Tom Hayashi and Mary Kay Chess bring salient, powerful insights on how leaders are leading and organizations are managing in the age of COVID-19. This is not-to-miss episode!  For more information about Saybrook University, please go to www.saybrook.edu. Dr. Hayashi's BioDr. Hayashi is a scholar-practitioner with over 20 years of senior-leadership and management consulting experience.  Before his appointment with Saybrook University, he was the founding principal of Capacity Empowerment, an organizational consultancy firm with cross-sector national and international client engagement portfolio.  His past clients including but not limited to ABC Television Network, AT&T, Compasspoint Nonprofit Services, GM, Liberty Hill Foundation, Los Angeles County, NAACP, National Broadcasters' Association, Ocean Institute, Planned Parenthood, The Praxis Center, Screen Actor's Guild (SAG-AFTRA), Southwest Airlines, Target, UPS, District of Columbia Health and Human Services Agency, and Office of Personnel Management.

Through national conversations, explorations and a PhD in Transformational Learning and Change, she committed to finding and supporting emerging and experienced leaders willing to pilot innovations, create unusual partnerships, savor conflict and invite ambiguity.  This led her to serve with other like-minded colleagues to listen and teach learners in a unique Leadership and Management program at Saybrook University.  She continued her belief that competitors can collaborate and that healthcare network leaders, when equipped with systems thinking, offer resilient sustainable practices and engagements to serve diverse communities. Indeed, when courage and laughter meet over thorny issues, innovation and transformation emerge.  More now, than ever.

In its landmark 1963 decision Gideon v. Wainwright, the Supreme Court mandated the right to counsel in federal and state criminal proceedings.

Last Saturday I came home and turned my computer looking for South Carolina primary updates and found an article titled 'NYPD' Buttocks May Cost $1.4 Million. My curiosity peaked I clicked on the link and saw a picture of the actress Charlotte Ross who starred in NYPD Blue from 1998-2004. I read, "The Federal Communications Commission has proposed a $1.4 million fine against 52 ABC Television Network stations over a 2003 broadcast of cop drama NYPD Blue". But wait. That episode aired about five years ago.Sometime around late February or early March of 2003 my wife and I were at a party and the subject of Charlotte Ross’ nude scene on NYPD Blue came up in conversation. I mentioned that we had missed the episode, as did several others at the party. The lady of the house was so impressed with Charlotte Ross in that now infamous scene that she had her husband pop the episode in the VCR so we could all watch.The consensus of the women in the room was that it was great to see a woman with a real body on TV. Words like "Brave" and "Bold" were used to describe Charlotte Ross’ choice to do that scene. Not wanting to sound like total pigs, the guys in the room discussed the camera work and the editing. The Man of the house paused the scene (approximately 34 seconds on the YouTube video) and pointed out that the boy’s head was perfectly positioned so we could not see Charlotte Ross’ nipples. When the scene is paused it is obvious that this was a composite shot and the boy was filmed separately and added in later. Personally I thought the scene had the innocence of the label on a bottle of Coppertone.Why is this scene just now being addresseed now by the FCC? Other controversial issues like the profanity (The F-word is used 21 times) used in ABC's, broadcast of Saving Private Ryan on Veterans Day in 2004. Or earlier that year when Janet Jackson had her "wardrobe malfunction" during the Super Bowl halftime show. Both issues took much less time to resolve. If you are keeping score at home:Janet Jackson’s breast: $550,000.Charlotte Ross’ buttocks: $1.4 million.($27.500 x 52 ABC central & Mountain Time zone stations)The F-word 21 times: Priceless.(The FCC later cleared the film, nothing that "Contextual considerations are critical in making indecency determinations.")In my research I can’t find an answer to my timing question. I just seem to have more questions. I also could not find any logical or even a reasonable reason as to why the FCC would want to go after a show that has been off the air for almost three years. Talk about beating a dead horse. Most importantly why does the FCC in their order refer to the buttock as a sex organ when it is not an organ, but a muscle. The FCC report described Charlotte Ross’ naked buttocks as titillating. That assessment seems subjective since butts may vary. If Charlotte Ross’ naked buttocks is titillating, then is not the mind is also a sex organ? If someone gives you a "come hither" look or "bedroom eyes" then are not eyeballs sex organs? I can go on with more examples but why go down that road?Logically I think that the FCC is pandering to social conservatives and their watch dog groups. Many would complain about the subject matter in the scene even if there were no nudity in it at all. These same groups just insured that ABC will make their 1.4 million dollars back from increased DVD sales thanks to all the press this story is getting. Does this make the FCC the true... buttock here? Finally, is the FCC is insisting that the buttock is a sex organ because of what they plan to do to ABC.I’d love to quote Sgt. Andy Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) here but instead I’ll keep it clean and quote William Shatner on SNL, "GET A LIFE, will you people? I mean, for crying out loud, it's just a TV show!"Stay TunedTony Figueroa
