As Tina moved into her new place, the hosts talked about their experience of moving house in Auckland and Melbourne. They took on a new format - TRUE OR FALSE - and tackled these burning questions: Finding a place to move is fun and easy - many options to choose from and there's plenty of supply! Since we are in first world countries, moving house is so efficient and such a breeze. Living solo is so much more expensive. So it's always better to live with housemates on a flat-sharing arrangement. Most houses for rent in Australia and New Zealand are fully-furnished - so no need to worry about investing on your own furniture, beddings, housewares, and even parking is provided! Given the Covid-19 pandemic, house options and setup in Australia and New Zealand are now fully equipped to support working-from-home situations. I follow certain traditions/superstitions while choosing and moving into a new house (feng shui and example: rice and salt should be the first items to enter the house)
In Episode 7 of the Happen Films Podcast, Antoinette is joined by Tina Ngata (Ngati Porou), advocate for environmental, indigenous and human rights. Tina is based in Tairāwhiti, East Coast, Aotearoa New Zealand, where she’s a busy community leader working for the rights and wellbeing of her whanau/family and community. For many years her blog, the Non-Plastic Maori, documented her journey reducing her personal dependence on plastic, a journey that led to her deepening her understanding of the wider issues of plastics consumption and waste and becoming a prominent activist in that space and beyond. She has spoken for Maori and indigenous rights at the United Nations and in conferences around the world, has published a book of her collected work opposing the continued celebration of colonial history, Kia Mau: Resisting Colonial Fictions, and is continually writing, speaking and protesting for justice for humans and Papatuānuku/Mother Earth. The intention was for this episode to be Happen Films’ contribution to Plastic-free July – Tina being one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s waste resistance heroes – and the idea was to talk about waste within the context of environmental, indigenous and human rights. And we do… but the focus of the conversation turned out to be colonisation – it’s history; it’s day-to-day presence – and what decolonisation might look like. That’s an appropriate conversation to be having at any time and feels particularly resonant right now, within the extraordinary context of this year, 2020, and everything it’s bringing forth to challenge our thinking, our history, our practices and our plans for the future. As Tina says: “Anti-colonialism is not just for indigenous people. Anti-colonialism, anti-imperialism and anti-racism is for everyone – we’ll all get well-being out of deconstructing the ways in which we believe that we have entitlement to each other’s spaces and places and bodies.” We hope you enjoy listening to Tina’s wise and profound words and come away as inspired as we have! ** Follow Tina ** Website: https://tinangata.com Support Tina on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/tinangata Watch Tina’s talk during the Claim the Future webinar (July 2020): https://vimeo.com/440273174 Buy Tina’s book, Kia Mau: Resisting Colonial Fictions (digital download – please koha/gift if you can): https://tinangata.com/2020/06/14/kia-mau-resisting-colonial-fictions/ ** More about Happen Films ** Support our work: https://happenfilms.com/support Website: https://happenfilms.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/happenfilms Instagram: https://instagram.com/happenfilms Facebook: https://facebook.com/happenfilms See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We have another minisode! Producer Jay spoke with director of new film Border, Ali Abbasi. About Border: customs officer Tina is known for her extraordinary sense of smell. It's almost as if she can sniff out the guilt on anyone hiding something. But when Vore, a suspicious-looking man, walks past her, her abilities are challenged for the first time ever. Tina can sense Vore is hiding something she can't identify. Even worse, she feels a strange attraction to him. As Tina develops a special bond with Vore and discovers his true identity, she also realises the truth about herself. Directed by Ali Abbasi and from a script by John Ajvide Lindqvist (Let The Right One In), Border is a thematically rich and deeply strange blend of romantic drama, magical-realist fantasy, and crime thriller and Sweden’s official entry to this year’s Academy Awards. Border is out in UK cinemas on 8 March. Please be aware we have some very rare, minor sound quality issues in this episode. The Cinema For All podcast is proud to be supported by the BFI, awarding funds from the National Lottery.

“It’s important that we are connecting with the community constantly to share with them what we are up to and to figure out what it is they need from us.” Tina Quigley wanted to be a pilot when she grew up. When she realized that, unfortunately, that wasn’t an option she studied airport planning and business. After spending 15 years at McCarran Airport, she joined the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) as Deputy General Manager. Now General Manager, Tina is joined by MJ Maynard (Deputy General Manager) where they discuss how they can maximize opportunities because of the unique structure of the RTC. Tina shares how 100% of RTC’s service is contracted out. The two also discuss ridership, farebox recovery, autonomous vehicles, and a ton of technology the transportation space should use to its advantage. As Tina says, “Technology is the new asphalt.” If you want to know more about RTC, you can check out their website.

Conquerors. That’s the best way to describe Mary Mary. The soul-stirring sister duo of Erica and Tina Campbell seemingly overcame it all in the last few years - winning yet another Grammy, inking a deal for season three of a groundbreaking originally scripted series, beating a vocal challenge, healing a marriage misstep, overseeing a change in management, launching a solo career for one sister and grieving the death of a parent. That’s enough to make anyone’s head spin. Yet, the sisters embraced each challenge and proclaim that this year is their best year yet.As Tina staunchly declares in her signature staccato: “Survive it. Persevere. Overcome it.” Indeed. Mary Mary’s greatest story is that of overcoming. Thirteen years ago, no one could have predicted the far flung reach of the hit “Shackles (Praise You)” that went on to become a signature song and crossover smash. From there, Mary Mary would win four Grammy Awards, 2 NAACP Image Awards, four BET awards, two American Music Awards, one ASCAP award, and multiple Stellar & Dove Awards and release seven albums, the most recent being the multiple award winning compilation “Go Get It” ( 2012 Columbia Records, a Division of Sony Music Entertainment). Now a household name, the ladies are credited with ushering in a new generation of gospel stars solidly entrenched in the larger cultural milieu while also overtaking the pop charts.
In our continued commitment to post-modernity, Episode 6, “Why Are People Into Exhibitionism?!” with very special guest Carol Queen was recorded live in front of an audience at Catalyst Con East last March … which means that Tina and Dr. Queen talked about the love of having sex in front of other people in front of other people. Of course, Exhibitionism is about more than getting off on being watched while you fuck. It’s about all kinds of arousal that comes from all kinds of being seen. As Tina and Carol explored, it can be about dressing up and showing off, making money by dancing naked, or sending someone a picture of your genitals in the mail. And of course, where would exhibitionists be without voyeurs like our live audience and listeners like you? Listen in as Tina riffs on all this and more with her hero, a legend in her own time, Dr. Queen. Discussed: The Lusty Lady, consent, talking to yourself while masturbating, putting on a show, getting... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
*This episode was recorded in January 2014. This is the topic that started it all. As Tina planned to study ADHD for school, we discussed how this would be useful information for other pharmacy students and medical trainees as well. We looked to the comprehensive CADDRA guideline for the assessment, differential diagnoses, and treatment strategies […] The post ADHD 1: CADDRA Guideline appeared first on Family Pharm Podcast.
