Aldeias do distrito de Ancuabe, na província de Cabo Delgado, foram visadas por novos ataques terroristas em Moçambique. Estes ataques acontecem numa altura em que a Total anunciou o refinanciamento do seu mega projecto nesta região e enquadram-se no aumento da violênciadesde que Daniel Chapo disse que os grupos armados estavam em debandada, como indicou Abdul Tavares, Coordenador Provincial para Cabo Delgado do CDD-Centro Para Democracia e Direitos Humanos de Moçambique, em entrevista à RFI. Em Moçambique, novos ataques em Ancaube fizeram pelo menos três mortos e provocaram a partida de cerca de 500 famílias, totalizando mais 1.500 deslocados em Cabo Delgado devido ao terrorismo. Este ataque já foi confirmado e segundo Abdul Tavares, coordenador provincial de Cabo Delgado do CDD-Centro para Democracia e Direitos Humanos, estes ataques inscrevem-se na multiplicação dos ataques no centro e Sul da região após a chegada ao poder do novo Presidente, Daniel Chapo."Estes ataques não começaram exatamente depois do anúncio do financiamento para a Total para o projecto de gás natural há uns dias. Eles começaram desde o momento em que houve o anúncio na tomada de posse do actual Presidente, de que os insurgentes ou os terroristas estavam em debandada. Sempre houve pequenos ataques, sobretudo na Estrada Nacional A380, atacando camiões de comerciantes que abasteciam alimentos ou produtos alimentares para a região Norte da província de Cabo Delgado. E desde lá, os ataques foram subindo e, para além da região Norte, passaram também para a região mais a Sul e centro da província de Cabo Delgado, como os distritos de Bolama e agora no distrito de Ancaube", explicou o activista.Este alargamento do perímetro de ataques pode ficar a dever-se ao combate permanente entre as forças militares moçambicanas, auxiliadas pelos ruandeses, ou pela necessidade da diversificação das fontes de financiamento destes movimentos terroristas que atacam agora os garimpeiros ilegais que fazem propecção de ouro naquelas regiões."Pode-se dar o facto de que os terroristas realmente estejam em debandada depois dos ataques que sofreram por parte das Forças Armadas moçambicanas e também por parte das forças do Ruanda. Isso pode explicar a sua deslocação mais para o centro e Sul da província de Cabo Delgado. Por outro lado, esses ataques podem ser explicados pelo facto de eles se calhar terem encontrado mesmo uma nova rota de ataques. Por exemplo, se formos a ver os ataques que eles fizeram no princípio deste ano, foi em regiões onde existiam garimpeiros ilegais que estavam à procura de ouro. Não se sabe se eles estão à procura de novas fontes de financiamento. Sabe-se que eles se alimentam da economia informal, sobretudo do garimpo ilegal, da venda de madeira e outro negócios ilícitos", indicou Abdul Tavares.Entretanto, os recrutamentos forçados na região continuam, com a população de deslocados também a aumentar. Só em 2024, pelo menos 349 pessoas morreram em ataques de grupos extremistas islâmicos no norte de Moçambique, um aumento de 36% face ao ano anterior, segundo estudo divulgado pelo Centro de Estudos Estratégicos de África (ACSS), uma instituição académica do Departamento de Defesa do Governo norte-americano.

Around one in four women have experienced domestic abuse, according to the Crime Survey of England and Wales. But abuse is not usually a one off event, it's part of a protracted pattern, and by studying the timeline, perhaps this shocking statistic and may change. Prof Jane Monckton-Smith has dedicated the majority of her career to studying this pattern and is Professor Of Public Protection at the University of Gloucestershire. She researched and created the Homicide Timeline, a tool for police officers and criminal justice professionals to understand the pattern of domestic abuse that leads to the murder of a woman. Her argument - Domestic homicide is not a crime of passion. Now a respected forensic criminologist, Jane started her career on the front line as a police officer.

Reconductoring power grids to boost energy efficiencyThe expansion of renewable energy has resulted in a heightened need for greater transmission capacity of the electrical grid. Unfortunately, permitting and cost allocation have been large hurdles to the potential of rapid expansion to meet future demand. As an alternative, large-scale reconductoring of advanced conductor systems has been proposed as a solution. Such an alternative can double transmission capacity cost-effectively, without the need to ensure additional permitting. In order to achieve this transition, old steel power lines would be replaced with carbon fiber, reducing electricity loss and boosting the overall capacity of the power grid. How does reconductoring work?In order to achieve clean energy goals, it is vital that we increase power grid capacity. To briefly summarize, electrons travel along transmission lines between towers made of conducting elements and a strength member, which allows conductors to hang between towers. The most common type of reinforcement is ACSR, aluminum conductor steel reinforced, used in overhead electrical transmissions. ACSR is susceptible to degradation and breakage, which may lead to more frequent power outages and increased chemical runoff into the environment. As an alternative, ACSS has been proposed by researchers as it carries more current than ACSR and is supported at higher temperatures. According to recent studies by the Goldman School and GridLab, replacing power lines with advanced conductors would enable 90% clean electricity by 2035. The report revealed that reconductoring transmission lines could add approximately 65 TW-miles of new interzonal transmission capacity in ten years, compared to 16TW-miles from building only new transmission lines. In terms of pricing, implementing advanced conductors costs around 20% more than building new lines. Yet replacing old lines with advanced conductors is typically half the cost than building new lines for the same capacity, partly because you reuse old infrastructure and the new models are much more energy efficient. Further policy and legislation is necessary in order to drive this technology into the future and ensure proper permitting, funding, and planning. What are some of the benefits?Advanced composite-core conductors such as ACSS can carry double the existing capacity, operate at higher temperatures, and reduce line sag. Further, replacing the steel for a stronger yet smaller composite-based core can avoid the construction of new lines which bring about land acquisition and increasing permitting. There is already a growing movement towards reconductoring, as 90,000 miles of advanced conductors have been deployed globally. More advanced conductors also have the benefit of being cost-effective, with an estimated $180 billion in systems cost savings with more long-term structure. Advanced conductors enable a doubling of line capacity at less than half the cost of new lines. Alongside the benefits, at large, reconductoring can play a pivotal role in low-cost decarbonization of power systems.What are some of the drawbacks?Amidst the potential advantages are obstacles that may impede the future progress of reconductoring. First, there is a lack of awareness. Conventionally, the only way to expand the grid capacity has been to build new lines. Utilities are not aware of the existing solution and often fail to take reconductoring into account. Alongside this is a lack of experience and misconception that implementing reconductoring lines is difficult and unrealistic. As there is a lack of incentives for utilities to improve their products, cheaper solutions are not enticing for their rate of return regulation. Particularly if reconductoring only occurs in localized areas as opposed to system-wide implementation, the benefits may be limited. Thus, government prioritization of this new solution is critical in order to boost conductor efficiency.About our guestUmed Paliwal is a senior scientist at the Center for Environmental Public Policy and the Goldman School of Public Policy at UC Berkeley. Umed conducts research on ways to integrate renewables on the grid and understand its impact on reliability and energy pricing. Umed's research has revealed that replacing old power lines with newer technology can boost the capacity of the power grid and help to achieve clean energy goals. He holds a Master of Public Policy from UC Berkeley where he focused on energy markets, regulation, power systems modeling and data analytics.

'Eight hours labor, eight hours recreation, eight hours rest' was the rallying cry of Robert Owen, a Welsh textile manufacturer turned labour reformer in the early 19th century. For those toiling in factories, Owen's slogan was a socialist dream that only became commonplace in the early 20th century. But, the 9 to 5 is still standard while technology has moved on - we have Artificial intelligence, automation, intuitive software at our fingertips. Shouldn't we be more productive while spending fewer hours at work? To give us an insight into alternative models of working is Professor Brendan Burchell, a professor at the Faculty of Human, Social and Political science at the University of Cambridge and fellow of Magdalene College, Cambridge who has been focusing on the effects of a 4 day working week for employers and employees. And also joining us is Professor Clare Kelliher from the Cranfield School of Management who has been spearheading research into flexible working.

The recent riots in Britain, which emerged following the Southport stabbings, demonstrate how hate is bubbling just under the surface of our society, ready to erupt at any moment. Behind the violence and destruction are statistics. Between 2012 and 2023, hate crimes in England and Wales rose by 252%, according to research undertaken by the Home Office. But this is just the tip of the iceberg. Professor Neil Chakraborti and Professor Matthew Williams join host Will Hutton to discuss the impact of hate crimes on the victims, their communities and wider British society. And what can be done to lower the incidences of hate crime. Professor Chakraborti has been studying the impact of hate crimes on victims for the past two decades and is Director of the Centre for Hate Studies and the Director of the Institute for Policy at the University of Leicester. Professor Matthew Williams is a Professor of Criminology in the School of Social Sciences at Cardiff University. He leads the HateLab there, a global hub for data and insight into hate speech and crime. He's the author of the popular science book, The Science of Hate, which was published by Faber and Faber in 2021.

No war has been more of a failure than the war on drugs. Despite all the crackdowns, prison sentences and moral posturing, drug use in Britain is on an epic scale. Yet, drug debate and policy are full of moral declarations, with evidence often being made to take a backseat. Why is this? Alex Stevens is a professor of Criminology at the University of Sheffield (having recently moved from the University of Kent). He was a member of the UK Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs from 2014 to 2019, and President of the International Society for the Study of Drug Policy from 2015 to 2019. And he's just published a book, Drug Policy Constellations: The Role of Power and Morality in the Making of Drug Policy in the UK.

One in six people are said to have ‘very poor literacy skills' according to the National Literacy Trust. As a country, we value Literature, high quality research skills and further education, yet our values are not reaching all sections of our society. Looking to challenge this is Professor Anna Vignoles, her past research focused on issues of equity and value in education, particularly the relationship between educational achievement and social mobility, and the role played by education and skills attainment in the economy and society. She was Professor of Education and Fellow of Jesus College at the University of Cambridge, Professor of Economics of Education at the UCL Institute of Education and Research Fellow at the London School of Economics Centre for Economic Performance. But now, Professor Vignoles is the Director of the Leverhulme Trust, one of the UK's most prestigious grant-making organisations.

Professor Andy Pike has placed local authorities under his microscope for us, trying to figure out how to solve the crisis, as Sir Henry Daysh Chair of Regional Development Studies at Newcastle University. He's even written a book about the very topic called "Financialisation and Local Statecraft". When it was revealed in 2022 that Thurrock council in Essex faced a half-a-billion-pound black hole in its finances, it was assumed it was something that other local authorities couldn't repeat. But since then, five other local authorities, including Nottingham, Birmingham, and Croydon, have fallen like dominoes, declaring bankruptcies and one in five local authorities in England is now projected to be insolvent by next year. Something is clearly going very wrong. And it's not just bin collections at stake but adult and child social care, schooling, libraries—the list goes on. Speak to anyone working in frontline council services, and they will tell you that any further cuts will decimate how we look after society's most vulnerable.

Dr Ed Jones is working to turn around Britain's ailing high streets. He is a financial economist at Bangor University who doesn't consider himself a conventional academic. The British High Street once was the heart of our cities, towns and villages, but no more. The High Street is increasingly lifeless – the preserve of too many empty shops and countless charity shops that don't have to pay burdensome business rates. A former centre of our communities is wilting before our eyes. Season 5 of the We Society Podcast from the Academy of Social Sciences tackles the big questions through a social science lens.

Professor Lord Richard Layard is one of the first economists to look at happiness as a metric that Governments worldwide should strive to improve in their population. He was the founder-director of LSE's Centre for Economic Performance and is now the director of the Centre's Wellbeing programme. In 2005, he wrote Happiness: Lessons from a New Science, which was published in 20 languages. We all quest for happiness, but how do we measure a happy life? Is it linked to wealth, relationships or absence of pain? Professor Richard Layard doesn't believe that the Gross Domestic Product of a country tells us much about the well-being of its people. On the eve of his 90th birthday in March 2024, Professor Lord Layard joins host Will Hutton to discuss the need to take well-being and happiness more seriously.

Dr. Jim Moore, Chief Clinical Officer of Apollo Behavior, joins me in the 11th installment of the Apollo Case Study Series. In this podcast, Jim also brought three of his Apollo colleagues into the discussion: Lydia Lindsey, Christina Nylander, and Lauren Elliott. We started off the show with Lydia providing some background on her ABA career and how it brought her to Apollo. Spoiler alert: we managed to fit in a shout-out to Auburn University's ABA program (insert the obligatory "War Eagle" chant! (note: Christina and Lauren were guests in ACSS episodes Six and Nine, respectively). This conversation centered around the use of Differential Reinforcement of Other (DRO) behavior procedures that the Apollo team implemented with two clients. As such, we discuss the following From a conceptual perspective, is DRO a reinforcement or punishment-based intervention? Why they chose this procedure over a more specific FCT intervention. The importance of determining a precise Inter-Response Time. How to avoid ratio strain. How to successfully fade DRO schedules. Balancing the effectiveness and efficiency of behavioral interventions. The importance of accurately re-setting the DRO interval. Coaching behavioral technicians to implement this procedure correctly, even when it is challenging to do so (see Dr. Claire St. Peter's excellent work in the general area of Treatment Integrity too). The Seven Steps to Instructional Control (disclosure: Amazon Associates link). The "London Cabbies Test." The importance of conducting client-oriented research in clinical settings.

Minette Batters, President of the National Farmers' Union of England and Wales, represents an estimated 55,000 farmers and farm workers. She has changed the course of history as the first woman to become president of the NFU. Every single person in the UK owes a debt to our farmers - they ensure food is on our tables every single day, but there appears to be a dissonance in our minds of what's on our supermarket shelves, and the producers behind our food. Outside of the NFU, Minette runs a tenanted family farm in Wiltshire. Her focus has always been to leave her farm in a better state than when she inherited it, and that's what she's aiming to do at the NFU too. But there have been a handful of pretty tough hurdles in her way - Brexit, Covid, the recent energy crisis, and not mention the need to balance sustainability with farmer's profit margins.

Ann Pettifor is an economist who is perhaps most famous for predicting the Global Financial Crisis two years before it happened. But Ann is not just a savant, but a change maker. She was a core voice in the successful international campaign to cancel billions in debt accumulated by the Global South to mark the new millennium. And in 2008, she co-authored the report, A Green New Deal, which laid out plans for better regulation of the financial system while pursuing green objectives. It's a programme that's been backed by Al Gore, Nobel Laureates in Economics, and dozens of politicians around the world. Of course, there have been critics, Donald Trump being the most high-profile. She joins host Will Hutton as they delve into how her early years in apartheid South Africa shaped her thinking, and what changes she'd like to see happening right now amidst the worsening climate crisis.

The Liggins and Howie trial demonstrating the benefit of antenatal corticosteroids (ACSs) on fetal lungs was published in 1972 in the journal Pediatrics. First adopted as weekly injections, ACSs were then found to be associated with decreased birth weights and decreased head circumferences. Hence, weekly administration was abandoned in the late 1990s. But the ACOG/SMFM does still recognize a single repeat dose “based on clinical scenario”, called a rescue dose. Is a rescue dose of steroids associated with altered neurodevelopment in the child? In this episode, we will summarize a brand new study just accepted for publication in the AJOG MFM (the Pink Journal) shedding some light on this question.
In the 6th installment of the Apollo Case Study Series, I'm joined by my regular conversation partner, Dr. Jim Moore, along with Christina Nylander. Christina is a BCBA who works at Apollo's Lawrenceville, GA clinic. In this episode, Christina opens up quite a bit and describes how she encountered Applied Behavior Analysis, her early experiences as an RBT, the mentoring and supervision she's received as a BCBA in the early stages of her career, the value of learning about typical child development, the successes she's had as a clinician, learning the PEAK curriculum, and much more. Christina quite vulnerably discussed juggling the immense challenges of being a working mother in our field as well. From sleep deprivation to feeling like one is never fully caught up... she candidly describes how she navigated that process. Throughout the podcast, Jim related Christina's points to Apollo's unique clinical and supervision models. If you are interested in learning more about what they do, you can find more information here. Here are some of the resources we discussed: Prior Apollo Case Study podcasts. Making the Science Part of Your Practice, Session 167. Rapport Building and Instructional Fading Prior to Discrete Trial Instruction: Moving From Child-Led Play to Intensive Teaching (Shillingsburg, et al., 2019). Last year's Verbal Behavior Conference. For those who are interested, the 2023 VBC (disclosure: VBC is a podcast sponsor). In parting, I have two requests: First, if you have any questions about this episode or any other ACSS podcasts, I encourage you to hit Jim up on LinkedIn.... even if it is just to say hello. Second, please share this show with friends and colleagues. I think Christina's story is highly representative of many people in the field right now, and this podcast may be helpful to quite a few BCBAs out there.

Full title: Green Social Work: A 21st Century Challenge for Practitioners, Academics and Students Guest: Professor Lena Dominelli, PhD, AcSS, is a qualified social worker and holds a Chair in Social Work at the University of Stirling. Amongst her many contributions to the social work profession she helped create the concept of green social work as a new paradigm for theory and practice; and her 2012 book of the same name attracted much professional interest. She has developed a range of research interests of great relevance to green and eco-social work practice, including climate change and sustainability, extreme weather events in the context of disaster intervention, community vulnerability, sustainability and resilience. On the international stage she has represented the social work profession at United Nations discussions on climate change since 2010. Introduction to this episode: My guest in this podcast episode, Professor Lena Dominelli, is well qualified to talk about aspects of historical, social work practice trends toward greater physical environment incorporation. She invented the term green social work (GSW) and for over a decade now she has developed a range of research interests of great relevance to green social work applications. These include, climate change and sustainability, extreme weather events, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions - in the context of disaster interventions, community vulnerability, sustainability and resilience. On the international stage she has represented the social work profession at United Nations discussions on climate change since 2010, and for a long time, she led Pillar 3 of the Global Agenda for Social Work, focussed on Promoting Community and Environmental Sustainability. In 2012 she saw publication of her influential book, Green Social Work: From Environmental Crises to Environmental Justice - which has become a standard introductory text for the subject. In this episode, I talk to Professor Dominelli about the current state of play of green social work practice for various constituencies of social work service users internationally, and in the context of accelerating physical environmental challenges.

In episode 102 of our SAP on Azure video podcast we talk about several announcements during Inspire, highlight the new SAP ODP Connector for Azure Data Factory, talk about the announcement between Oracle and Azure, new Premium SSD v2 and the Azure Center for SAP Solutions (ACSS). ACSS makes SAP workloads known to Azure which opens up a whole new world of features and integrations. One of these integrations is the Azure Monitor for SAP Solutions. To drill down in the new version v2 of Azure Monitor for SAP Solutions we have Samie Khare joining us who provides a fascinating insight on the new features. https://www.saponazurepodcast.de/episode102 https://youtu.be/NmqeWAba_4I #SAPonAzure
This week on the show I'm joined by a good friend of mine. She's an Olympian, a graduate from the University of Oklahoma, and the founder of ACSS which is short for Administrative care support services where she provides administrative support for businesses, law firmers and other corporate administrate fields. She's a woman of faith and an all-around good-spirited individual. I've known Kerri Ann since 2012, she's always been genuine, hard-working and highly focused on being the best that she can be. Kerri Ann's journey hasn't been an easy one, she faced her fair share of hardships as a young adolescent with family and external challenges. It was those same experiences that reminded her of the things she didn't want to do or become, since then she's been very intentional about her approach in life. She excelled in track and field, most people know her as a sprinter but she started as a jumper and then could sprint. right after high school, she went to the University of Arkansas before she transferred to Oklahoma and finished there. After her college career, she essentially retired from the track in 2005 and decided to come back in 2009 and started back training. And that's the interesting part because she made the Olympic team in 2012 with basically a year and a half of training and getting back into form. 2012 at the Olympic trials which were in Calgary Alberta, she finished 3rd in the 100m and made the Canadian Olympic team. In this episode we touch on: • Her Upbringing & some of the challenges she faced • Getting started in track and field • transition from high school to university • How she faced her insecurities • Why she retired from Track & came back 4 years later • Olympic Experience • How a car accident left her in a very dark space • How her faith was tested & later helped her stay balanced and so much more. Kerri ann's story is inspiring and I know you'll enjoy it and get something from it.

Office of Foreign Assets Control's (OFAC) advisory on ‘Guidance to Address Illicit Shipping and Sanctions Evasion Practices' of 2020 outlined a number of recommendations for financial institutions to manage shipping risk. The guidance relating to ‘dark' activity and ship-to-ship transfers have been challenging to implement within existing trade finance compliance screening programmes. ACSS, IIBLP and IHS Markit interviewed a number of banks and others to look at the actions taken by financial institutions in response to the OFAC advisory notice and offer a series of practical recommendations to best manage the new world of shipping risk. Download the whitepaper: https://cdn.ihsmarkit.com/www/prot/pdf/0222/Sanctions-advisories-for-the-maritime-industry_Feb2022.pdf This paper will offer an overview of the shipping industry and how it relates directly to financial institutions in light of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI) advisories. We will cover the key aspects of Automatic Identification System (AIS) and discuss the main elements and steps in a typical ship-to-ship (STS) operation. A Working Group has been convened of trade finance experts in the banking, shipping and regulatory industries in order to answer and clarify the following points for compliance officers in financial institutions: 1. An understanding of AIS 2. How can data transmitted by AIS be manipulated 3. What are the items of information broadcast This paper recommends the following as major factors for discussion and consideration: 1. AIS outages and STS operations should be examined in closer detail if they occur for lengthy time periods of 10 hours or more. This would be a calculated average time taken to potentially conduct a port call or an at-sea cargo transfer. AIS outages below the 10-hour cut-off would potentially be insignificant from a risk and compliance perspective with the caveat that some DPRK ship-to-ship operations for petroleum products have been conducted in slightly less time 2. AIS outages are only important if the vessel could engage with another vessel of the same type or perform a port call in the time it was ‘dark'. If this is not possible then a potential red flag becomes downgraded Speakers: Saskia Rietbroek - CSS, Executive Director at Association of Certified Sanctions Specialists (ACSS) Michael Byrne - CEO at International Institute of Banking Law & Practice (IIBLP) Byron McKinney - Director, Product Management at IHS Markit

Future national security law leaders were once again invited to the Australian Crisis Simulation Summit to brush up on real-life skills during very realistic experiences. The summit's director spoke to Protégé on what's in store for the delegates. In this episode of The Protégé Podcast, host Naomi Neilson is joined by Australian National University penultimate-year Bachelor of International Security Studies/Laws (Hons) student and ACSS director Gemma Dabkowski to discuss the success of the summit's first year and what's new for delegates in its second year. Those who were invited will get to participate in three realistic and intense full-scale national security crisis simulations. Everything, from the scenarios through to the very lifelike newsroom, is designed to prepare the delegates for everything they will need to know to manage complex, interdisciplinary national security challenges in future. During the episode, Gemma shares how she and her team connected with leaders in the national security space and invited them to come on board. She also talks listeners through the experience of setting up the summit, leading a major team, and managing several different parts and many different students to get it off the ground. Much like last years' event, this year's was impacted by the COVID-19 lockdowns. Gemma discusses how she and her team were not only able to pivot the summit into a virtual event, but how much more they were able to include because of it. Have a listen below!

I'm not crazy about the word "pitch" but I'm going with it. I use it in the sense that you are making an argument for something. You're making an argument that I should pay attention to who you are and the art you make. I'm more likely to pay attention to your art if you have a compelling story than if you ask me to buy, buy, buy. What I share in this special bonus episode will not only help you get on the Art Biz Podcast, but will also serve you when you pitch to other podcasts, bloggers, writers, and publications. The more interviews you do and the more experience you get, the better you become at telling your story. You will also grow your audience and maybe even sell some art or attract new students and social media followers. You never know who is listening. 5 STEPS FOR PITCHING YOUR STORY TO THIS PODCAST Listen to the podcast. Remember I am looking for visual artists who have a dedicated studio practice and a business lesson to share. Research. Show me that you know who I am and what I’m trying to do here. Get clear on the business lesson you have to share with my listeners. Make it easy for me to envision the story and say Yes. If you have been a guest on other podcasts or shared your story in a video, share that link with me. I’ve made it easy for you. There’s a form to complete on this page. https://artbizsuccess.com/pitch-podcast/ This episode is sponsored my signature business-building program for artists, the Art Career Success System. All of the lessons you learn in the Art Career Success System are tasks you will address repeatedly throughout your art business and career—like rewriting your artist statement, submitting exhibition proposals, developing content, and nurturing your connections.

Fun isn't a word used very often when we think of marketing or business tasks. Still, it's one of the criteria I suggest considering when you're thinking about whether to add something to your busy schedule. When lockdown started, Brooke Harker threw her fears about doing live video out the window and created Saturday Night Live Art Shows—because she thought it would be fun. It started with just her, but quickly grew to a core of regular artists, with new ones added each week. I wanted to talk with her about it because these weekly events are open to any artist who wants to show off their art or, perhaps, the art that you collect. In fact, as you'll learn, the rules are, well, ... What rules? This could be a great way for you to connect, practice your video (because imperfections are encouraged), and maybe even sell some art. Brooke Harker is a contemporary artist based in Los Angeles, California. Her lively paintings of cities and coastal scenes are characterized by energetic brushstrokes in ink and thick oil paint applied with palette knives. These vibrant depictions of daily life capture a sense of motion and highlight moments of synchronicity. Harker calls herself a historian of the ordinary. Her paintings are a collaboration with all of the people who’ve contributed to a place over time: architects, engineers, city workers who’ve placed street signs and pedestrians whose colorful fashion landed in view at the perfect moment. All of their individual actions brought together one moment, fated to be captured on canvas. Follow Brooke on Instagram: @brookeharker.

Welcome to Gun Funny, Episode 161. Today I’m going to chat with Dimitri Mikroulis from Primary Arms, discuss the upcoming supreme court nomination, highlight the new Sig X-Change kit for the P365, and talk about a flight to nowhere. I’m your host, Ava Flanell. Welcome to the show everyone.
Just a mention of the word critique can bring back painful memories for some artists. Or downright fear from those who have never participated in a professional critique. Artists who have been part of formal and ongoing critique groups find them invaluable to their creative development. In the latest episode of the podcast, I talk with Patricia Miranda, founder of The Crit Lab. She's been leading 7 separate critique groups in 3 states and has recently taken them online. We discussed: Why artists need critical feedback and at one point they should ask for it. The format of a day-long critique session. Patricia's contention that art is a verb, not an object. Artists would benefit from thinking about engagement more than intent. This is a deep and philosophical discussion that is different from my other episodes. I encourage you to listen more than once.

I'm a planner, and I like helping artists plan. I'm good at it! If you've taken any of my courses, or even read my book, you anticipate that there will be at least one plan involved. This is one of the special episodes I'm adding since Covid hit—a topic that will help you stay in control of your art business. In talking with my students and clients, I realize how devastating this year has been. Truth be told, I didn't really have to talk with them to know that their plans had been dashed, but it helps to understand the extent. The pandemic has wreaked havoc on everyone's plans. Canceled shows and travel. Shuttered studios and exhibition spaces. And the kids! Suddenly the kids are at home and you are tasked with the awesome responsibility of their education. You're on Zoom all of the time, so that brief sigh of relief you felt for not having to get dressed and put on makeup was short-lived. In the early days of the outbreak, I encouraged my clients and students to plan just 1 week at a time. We didn't know what was going to happen. How long things would be closed. I wanted them, again, to control what they could and not worry about months into the future. We now know that Covid is going to be with us for the foreseeable future. The planner in me said, Okay! Time for a new plan! So I developed a short program to help you do this. Read about Reclaim Your Year at ArtBizNow.com.

Four and a half years ago I hired the best assistant I have ever had at Art Biz Success. She has been loyal, prompt, and 200% dependable. She was 21 years old at the time—about to turn 22—and had just graduated early from college. After making many hiring mistakes in the past, I was determined to do it right this time And I did. I hit the jackpot. Mesa is moving on to new professional opportunities, but I wanted to give her a little surprise send-off. (Any typos are on me this week!) In episode #59 of the Art Biz Podcast I tell you exactly how I hired the perfect person for my business at the time. I also give you the steps I put in place to make sure that we maintained a good relationship and that, above all, she enjoyed her position. I touch on the hiring process, setting up an assistant for success, working together, and keeping her happy. I also share my mistakes. I’m sure there are more that I’m unaware of, but I can tell you about those I know. I get a little vulnerable and a lot sentimental. I’m sharing the story because I don’t know of a single artist who wouldn’t like a little more help with their business. Perhaps you’ll benefit from my experience. I'm grateful that Mesa and I have dedicated so much energy to greasing our systems. All tasks are properly documented in our Notion app, and we've spent three weeks poring over them to make sure that someone else could take over the tasks. THAT's why I love systems so much--because they help my business run (almost) on autopilot. If your systems are broken or, worse, non-existent, I invite you to take a look at the Art Career Success System, an intensive program that guides you through the systems you need for a successful art business. Whether you need to create an income plan, find new venues, write an artist statement, or improve your marketing, I've got you covered in the ACSS.

Why wouldn't you make it easier for people to buy art directly from you? That's what Lynn Goldstein thought. She built a shopping cart for her website earlier this year. And the sales rolled in immediately after the March launch. To date, Lynn has sold 18 original paintings and about a dozen reproductions directly from her site, and I wanted to find out how. It must be said that neither Lynn nor I are not experts in all of the options you have for shopping carts. I wanted to share Lynn's experience and, above all, her results. Listen in if you're curious about how she did it. See Lynn's art: https://lynngoldstein.com. Follow her on Instagram: @lynngoldstein_art.

Adri Norris was born in Barbados and raised in New York and New Mexico. A former U.S. Marine, she says she was raised to be a leader—to help people and improve lives. Adri is on a mission to tell stories of women who have made history. She does so through her art, her teaching, and her speaking. She is especially interested in shining a spotlight on women of color that have been overlooked in our history books. In this episode of the podcast, I asked Adri about her work, her teaching, and her activism. Less than one month ago, Adri was asked to design and direct the Black Lives Matter street mural in front of the Colorado State Capitol building. She selected the words Black Lives Matter Remember This Time for the mural. We discuss those words, as well as the symbolic colors she chose and how she involved community members in its making. I also asked Adri what steps white artists can take to be helpful right now. See Adri's art on her website: https://afrotriangledesigns.com/.

One of the first steps an artist makes when turning professional is to decide on an art business name, and many new artists make this more complicated than it should be. Allow me to bottom line this entire podcast episode: If you are a fine artist, your first choice is to always use your given name for marketing your original art. I understand it isn't always this easy. There are sometimes reasons for not using your own name, including, as I've learned, reasons of physical and emotional safety. Setting those very real concerns aside, the most frequent arguments against using given names for an art business are the following. My name is too common / Someone else already owns the URL with my name [And she’s a porno star!] My name is too hard to spell I sign my name as X on my paintings, but I want to be known as Y I consider these objections one by one and give you tips for overcoming them in this episode of the Art Biz Podcast.

Sandra was born in Mexico City and received her BFA from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 1995. She uses lines, marks, patterns, and textures to speak metaphorically and poetically of things that make no reference to the physical world. Her art constructs a sensual surface that weaves a path between process and narrative, mark and meaning, intention and abstraction. When Covid-19 struck, Sandra wanted to make a difference. She started a twice-weekly Instagram Live program, Tap Into Your Creativity. On it, Sandra interviews artists at home in their studios—hoping to inspire and to be a light amid all the darkness. The artists, in turn, agree to donate a 10"x10" painting to be auctioned to benefit Feeding America. On this episode of the Art Biz Podcast, Alyson talks with Sandra about how she makes it happen.

For the past 11 years, Jan Heaton has been grieving at the same time she has had an active art career. First was the 10 years of her daughter's illness. Then, in 2019, her daughter's passing. I felt it was a good time to discuss the topic of grief since so many artists are grieving during Covid-19. Artists share grief over lost plans, opportunities, studio spaces, human connection, routines, and travel. And probably a lot more. Born in Michigan, Jan Heaton is a watercolorist who calls Austin and Laguna Beach home. She has studied at Wayne State University, the Detroit Institute of Arts, and the University of Texas - Austin. Heaton’s watercolors are abstract, but her creative process is inspired by the structure, color, and pattern of elements in nature that are often overlooked. Her work isolates details and exposes the viewer to an everyday object or place seen from a new viewpoint. Jan is represented by the Davis Gallery in Austin, along with art dealers and galleries in San Antonio, Marble Falls, Houston, Atlanta, Santa Barbara, and San Francisco. This is a huge topic and Jan wants to be very clear that she isn’t an expert on grief. I asked her to be on the show just to talk about her experience in hopes that it might be helpful—even if for only one person.

Episode 94: The “Student Question” in Tunisia: Between the Attraction of Leftism and the Steamroll of Authoritarian Paternalism (1963-1979) In this podcast, Dr. Idriss Jebari discusses the student question’s emergence in the context of the Parisian radical sixties and the importance of Maoist insights. Jebari examines the way Perspectives seized on the “student question” in its journal in relation to the state’s reforms in the education sector and its discourse on youth faced with contestation. Jebari explores how the repressive events of 1968 and 1973 were highly revealing of Bourguiba’s thinking on Tunisian youth and how Perspectives countered it by promoting students to leadership positions. This podcast ends by depicting the atmosphere in the wing of the Tunisian prison where both generations were simultaneously held in the 1970s, as described in certain memoirs, as yet another reason to speak of many iterations of Tunisian leftism in the postcolonial era, and as an entry point to start compiling a growing archive to shed light on this occulted episode of the country’s history and work toward national reconciliation. Dr. Jebari is Al Maktoum Assistant Professor in Middle East Studies at Trinity College Dublin. His work investigates the distinctiveness of the Maghribi critique of modernity in contemporary Arab intellectual and cultural history. He completed a doctorate on the history of the production of critical thought in Morocco and Tunisia at the University of Oxford on the intellectual projects of Moroccan thinker Abdallah Laroui and Tunisian thinker Hichem Djaït. He then held an ACSS postdoctoral fellowship at the American University of Beirut to study the dynamics of intellectual and cultural exchanges between the Maghrib and the Mashriq after 1967. He has published on the intellectual projects of several North African intellectual figures such as Abdelkebir Khatibi, Mohamed Abed al-Jabri and Malek Bennabi, and how the younger generations remember this intellectual heritage of the Arab Left. He is currently working on his first book manuscript that will address the critical societal debates that shaped North Africa’s path toward modernity in the sixties and seventies. This podcast is part of the Contemporary Thought series and was recorded on July 22, 2019 at the Centre d'Études Maghrébines à Tunis (CEMAT). Posted by Hayet Lansari, Librarian, Outreach Coordinator, Content Curator (CEMA).
On the Art Biz Podcast I usually talk with artists who have a studio practice and a business lesson to share. But I’ve been changing things up during Covid-19, as I’ve wanted to focus on what you can do now to stay in control of your art business. This control is important since there are so many things that are out of your hands. Join in this conversation using #ArtBizNow on Instagram. This episode is a recent conversation that I had with Cynthia Morris on Facebook Live, and I thought it might work well as an audio-only version. Cynthia and I talked about the types of journals we think are best for this process, why it’s important to write by hand before moving to the computer, a structure for your journaling process, and how to use prompts to get your ideas down. Remember that we recorded this as a video conversation with one another. Some things might not translate. For example, we did show and tell about our journals.

Daryl D. Johnson gathers inspiration for her paintings of clouds from kayaking, gardening, and motorcycling. The views are familiar, but the subtext is the underlying chi, the sweeping momentum. She was the first girl to take mechanical drawing in her high school, having to plead with the guidance counselor for permission to enroll. She likes to tell the story of her first day in class when Mr. Ruthizer took out a drawing implement and said, “This is a pencil. I am going to show you how to sharpen it." She knew immediately she was in the right class. In this episode of the Art Biz Podcast, Alyson talks with Daryl about what she calls her year of cleaning, prompted by a decision to move from her longtime New Hampshire home to New Orleans. Daryl talks about a life-changing event that led to a very different relationship with things. When you listen, you'll discover why the plan took an entire year to implement (it's brilliant). You'll also find out how Daryl made a big wad of cash by selling things through carefully selected channels.

For the foreseeable future, I’m dedicating the Art Biz Podcast to what you can do now to stay in control of your art business. It’s just going to be me talking. Episodes will be shorter and more frequent. There will be no music. No bells and whistles. My goal is respond to the situation quickly and to keep you going at the expense of a fancy, professionally engineered audio program. I hope you understand. I need you to be part of the conversation. I need to hear from you! Please join me on Instagram using #ArtBizNow and bookmark ArtBizNow.com as a hub for art business resources during this crisis. So, staying in control of your art business. It sounds like a simple theme, but it’s profound. So much of what is happening right now is beyond your control. You can’t control how many people get sick. You can’t control how fast the virus spreads. You can’t control what our leaders do (though you can vote and I strongly urge you to do that). But you can control how you react. It’s critical for your well being that you pay attention to what is in your control. This is going to make you feel much more optimistic about the future, and give you fuel to carry on. I want to begin this series by discussing how you spend your time every day, hour, and minute—even if you have kids at home. In this episode, I discuss why having structure is so important right now and review 6 activities that you can schedule in order to stay in control of your art business. **** This episode is sponsored by my signature business-building program, the Art Career Success System, a program I have perfected for more than 17 years working with artists.

Cynthia Morris helps writers, artists and entrepreneurs make their big dreams a powerful reality. Cynthia is a certified coach, teacher, author and artist. In 1999, she founded Original Impulse, a boutique coaching company that empowers creative people to focus, follow through and finish projects that matter. The author of the The Busy Woman’s Guide to Writing a World-Changing Book, Cynthia has published seven e-books on writing and creative travel as well as the Paris historical novel, Chasing Sylvia Beach. She is a watercolor artist and visual journal keeper who uses art as a way to express joy and consistently access inspiration. Back in 2016 Alyson sat down with Cynthia to discuss an affliction many of their artist-clients suffer from: Impatience. Especially around making money. This was the first episode in what became the Art Biz Podcast. The conversation started with a consideration of the pitfalls of impatience, and quickly launched into a variety of topics that all have to do with what it takes to be a professional artist.

In 2014 then-promising artist Jennie Tucker received a challenge out of the blue from a friend: Paint my wedding. At my wedding. In front of all the guests. Most of the artists I know and love would have (1) laughed out loud thinking, Obviously she jests, or (2) run the other way. Fast. Not Jennie. She accepted the challenge and rose to the occasion. More interestingly, she found she really liked it. Jennie, who was single at the time (read: freer), enjoyed traveling and painting at weddings. She liked interacting with guests and painting within the time and location constraints. She didn't mind people looking over her shoulder to see what was on the canvas. She became an artist-performer of sorts, and the word spread. Jennie found a niche for herself. Before long, she was in demand for other live events, like corporate parties and conferences. The opportunities abounded, and every one of them happened by word of mouth and, eventually, as a result of her social media sharing. There was no way she could accept all of the invitations that came her way. She had to start saying No. In this latest episode of the Art Biz Podcast, I asked Jennie Tucker about the business side of live painting. We discuss the importance of contracts (and what to include in them), dealing with people and their many personality quirks, income streams, and her desire to help more artists start doing this work. Jennie openly shares the challenges and a somewhat embarrassing story from a most memorable wedding. See Jennie's art: https://www.jennielouart.com/.

One of the most important lessons in my course, Magnetic You, involves meditating on your art. You read that right. Meditating on your art. ****I insist that art speaks when you give it the time and space to tell you its story. Then you have to capture that story in a journaling process. In the spring of 2018, Cathy Read worked her way through this course, and wrote pages and pages about a new body of work. Then she got an idea from another lesson in Magnetic You to leverage all of that writing she had done. It didn’t just stay in a notebook or in a file somewhere in the dark depths of her computer. Nooooo. She put it to work and turned her written stories into audio for an exhibition. The leap Cathy took from written word to audio involves a different way of thinking. It’s much like how museums consider programming their shows. They don’t simply put up the art along with nearby labels. They have docents who lead tours, scholars who give presentations, activities to expand on a theme, and audio for telling stories. In this episode, Cathy and I talk about how she created a process for this, how it worked out, and what she'd do differently next time.

Early in her painting career, Carol A. McIntyre was surprised by the lack of easy-to-understand color theory classes. This motivated her to develop a simpler way to mix color which, in turn, would empower artists. Her full-color book, I Just Want to Paint: Mixing the Colors You Want, walks you through her color-mixing methodology. Carol has helped over 3,500 painters see and mix color differently. She is an award-winning artist who is a signature member of the Transparent Watercolor Society of America and holds associate memberships with the Oil Painters of America and the American Women Artists. In this episode of the Art Biz Podcast, Alyson talks with Carol about the long process of publishing her book and the expenses, many of which were surprises. See Carol’s art.

With continuous protests ongoing across Lebanon for the last two weeks, this event will analyse this largest demonstration of public disobedience for the past decade. The situation will be contextualised against the backdrop of failing state services, a system that has gradually drifted apart from society, and also a society that has reached its consumerist limits. This event is part of a series being organised by the LSE Institute for Global Affairs responding to the Lebanese protests. For further information, please contact Dr. Bilal Malaeb. Jamil Mouawad is a lecturer in political studies and public administration at the American University of Beirut. His research interests in state-society relations span the subfields of comparative politics and political economy. He specializes in the politics of the Middle East, with a focus on governance and limited statehood. He was a Max Weber Fellow at the European Univesrity Institute, finalizing his book based on his PhD thesis. The book presents a critique to the concept of ‘weak’ states. The central argument of his book is that ‘weakness’ does not capture the nature of the Lebanese state and that the patterns of ‘presence’ and ‘absence’ are by no means incidental but central to the way politics works. He was awarded a PhD in politics from the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in June 2015. Later, he joined the Institut Français du Proche-Orient (IFPO) in Beirut, as a postdoctoral fellow, through a grant from the Arab Council for Social Sciences (ACSS). He also acted as a researcher coordinator of the Critical Security Studies in the Arab world and the Ethics in Social sciences project, both on-going projects launched by ACSS.

He is author of Banking on the State: The financial Foundations of Lebanon (Stanford University Press). He holds a PhD in Middle East Studies from the University of Toronto, an MA in Political Science from York University, Canada, and an MA in Economics from The University of Rochester, New York. Sophie Chamas is a senior teaching fellow at the Centre for Gender Studies at SOAS. She is finishing up her PhD in Modern Middle East Studies at the University of Oxford, where she was also an Ertegun Scholar. Her work focuses on the study of social movements, counter-culture, and political theory and discourse rooted in, focused on or related to the Middle East. Broadly speaking, she is interested in thinking through the life, death and afterlife of the radical political imaginary in the Middle East and beyond. Sophie is also an essayist and writer of creative non-fiction. Her writing has appeared in Kohl: a journal for body and gender research, The State, Raseef 22, Mashallah News, Jadaliyya and The Towner, amongst other publications.

Adele Sypesteyn is a New Orleans-born artist whose architecturally influenced abstract work is distinguished by multiple layers of texture, color and pattern. She draws inspiration from her surroundings, particularly the weathered walls of New Orleans and elements of nature. Her abstract art combines warm textures with aged patinas and writings, and utilizes her unique technique developed over three decades as a practicing artist. Adele has been making a living from her art for 4 decades. But she never got too comfortable with income coming from a particular source. She paid attention to changes in the marketplace and economy. And she educated herself. In this episode of the Art Biz Podcast, Alyson talks with Adele about the trail she blazed, including her decision to pull out of her galleries and focus on expanding her teaching practice into a major source of income. See Adele’s art at https://AdeleSypesteynStudio.com and watch her instructional videos on her YouTube channel, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJoxxdEPmXegvzMSywE-L2Q **** This episode is sponsored my signature business-building program, the Art Career Success System, a program I have perfected for more than 17 years working with artists.

I believe that artists are so valuable to the world; I will do everything I can to help them After teaching artists for a while, Alyson developed a framework called Art Career Success System. ACSS is composed of 4 programs. One is the Creative Content Camp, which helps artists create their contents.

Thirdly, Art Biz Accelerator, which is about the places where you show and sell your art. Lastly, we have the Magnetic You which is all about presentation, speaking and branding as an artist.

The 2010 Tanner Lectures are concerned with the compatibility, or otherwise, of market-dominated economies with an ethic of care. A key question is whether economic wrongs can be righted, and financial ills made good, not by arguing against markets, but by making a bid for them. Housing markets provide the touchstone for discussion. After all, the ‘noughties’ financial crisis stemmed from events in the housing economy; just as the sustainability of recovery depends on the effective management of home assets and mortgage debt.
David S. Wall, PhD, FRSA, AcSS is Professor of Criminology at Durham University, UK where he conducts research and teaches in the fields of cybercrime, policing and intellectual property crime. Dr. Wall’s October 21, 2010 presentation was co-sponsored by the Institute for Information Infrastructure Protection (I3P) at Dartmouth College. He discussed how demands for better policing of cybercrimes cannot easily be met because Internet-related offenses mainly takes place within a globalized and transnational context, while crime tends to be nationally defined and policing locally delivered. He argued that the future of policing the internet does not solely revolve around increasing the role and capacity of the public police, rather, it involves the public police engaging with the various networks of security that currently constitute the self-policing of the internet.
