For most people, any type of cleaning is an ordeal. Even worse when you have to face organizing your closet and deal with all those clothes and accessories that you have accumulated for years. But when you do this with your sister, it’s so much easier, even fun. And, oh, what a nice feeling to see a clean, well-organized closet!DialogueA: Ai, meu closet tá a maior bagunça! Mal consigo entrar. B: Eu acabei de organizar o meu. Agora que eu tô com mais tempo livre eu posso te ajudar. A: Que bom! Acho que o maior problema é que tenho um montão de roupa que já não cabe mais. B: A gente pode começar fazendo uma pilha de roupa pra guardar e outra pra dar. Depois a gente vê onde vai guardar suas roupas. A: Eu queria guardar tudo pendurado em cabides, pelo menos em teoria, mas sei que muita coisa vai acabar parando nas gavetas. B: E coisas tipo chapéu, roupa de banho e pijama? A: De repente a gente pode botar em caixas. B: Nossa! Seu closet agora tá ótimo! Vamos pedir ao papai pra passar o aspirador de pó pra ficar perfeito.A: Ugh my closet is such a mess! I can barely step in it. B: Oh, I just finished organizing mine! Now that I have some free time on my hands, I can help you out. A: Sounds good. I think my biggest problem is that I have a lot of clothes that don’t fit anymore. B: We can start by making piles of clothes to keep or toss. From there, we can start thinking about where to store your clothes. A: I would like to hang all my clothes, if possible, but I know that some things will have to go in drawers. B: What about stuff like hats, swimsuits, and pajamas? A: Maybe we can put them in bins. B: Wow! Your closet looks great now! Let’s ask dad to vacuum the floors for a nice finish.

LnR 118 (Casual Language) Side Hustle (Replay) Hi, I hope that everyone is doing well. The U.S. is finally getting serious about trying to stop the spread of the coronavirus in the country. We are supposed to stay at home if we can. I'm in a small town, so we aren't very worried about it, though we are being careful. Other places in the country have more cases of the virus and are facing stricter rules about staying inside. I know that my listeners in other countries, particularly in Europe and Asia, have already faced many problems because of the virus. I wish all of you the best. This podcast episode is about having a "side hustle". Right now I am working on several side hustles, mainly involving selling online and writing ebooks. A couple years ago I tried selling bookmarks on Amazon. It was an interesting learning experience, but it was also a failure! I learned how to contact a Chinese company to make the kind of bookmark I wanted. That was good. But losing money because no one bought the bookmarks on Amazon was not good. I should have done more research before I chose that product. I liked giving bookmarks as a gift, so I thought other people did, too. Anyhow, I have boxes of unsold bookmarks under the bed in the guest bedroom of my mother's house, where I live. If you are thinking of doing a side hustle or two or three, I encourage you! Be sure to do enough research before you start, though. I learned the hard way! From Nancy at nancy@missbuswell.com. LnR 118 (Casual Language) Side Hustle A: Hey, do you want to go see a movie tonight? B: Nah, I want to work on my side hustle. A: Your what? What do you mean? B: My side hustle. It means a part-time job, in addition to your full-time job. Usually it means starting an online business. A: Oh, really. I've never heard that expression before. I guess I could say that I have a side hustle, too. I’m writing a short ebook about how to take care of hamsters. I love hamsters and know a lot about them. I’m going to publish the ebook on Amazon Kindle. B: That sounds great. My side hustle is selling things online. I’m actually still doing research on the best way for me to do it. A: I've heard you can make a lot of money as an affiliate seller. B: What's that? A: That's when you sell someone else's product, usually on your own website. You get a percentage of the sales price. You can sell real products, like things on Amazon, or digital products, like computer programs or online courses. B: Wow, I need to do some more research! Thanks for telling me.

As a series about upcoming classes, these episodes will feature interviews with many of the instructors tasked with teaching them. Today's episode features Jeff Smith, Recording Studio Instructor at TCC. Edited by Sam Levrault Music by The Odyssey, "75 to Ramona" Transcript by Bethany Solomon TCC CONNECTION PODCAST | SEMESTER SNEEK PEAK | FT. JEFF SMITH Bethany: Welcome to semester sneak peak, our special summer series that provides a preview of courses available this coming fall semester. I am your host Bethany Solomon, associate editor of the north east campus here at the TCC connection. Today we have a very special guest, Jeff Smith, he is a TCC adjunct professor, TCC signature symphony violist, and president of song smith records. Jeff Smith: Hi! Good afternoon, how are ya? B: Good, how are you? J: I’m doing great. B: Can you start off by telling us a little about yourself? J: Sure. I was born and raised in Tulsa, OK. I started playing violin at 10 years old because my brother and sister played the violin. The summer of my 6th grade year my teacher came to me and said “you know you’re kinda beefy, husky boy, you need to play the viola. I said, viola? It rhymes with granola, I don’t want to play the viola, I said what am I getting myself into here? She said ‘Oh, no you’re not going to quit the violin, you’re going to learn how to double. Double. It rhymes with trouble, she said ‘oh no, you’ll be fine.’ So, I got to take two instruments to school, the violin and the viola. Uh, learned how to play the both of them, not long after that the beetles were popular, and I got a guitar. I started going on in. B: Very cool, very cool, so how did you find your way into the education as far as like, your music. Did you study in undergrad, music specifically, or did you have a broad range of interests beyond music? J: Oh, gosh. You look back on pivotal points in your life. One pivotal point in my life was, I guess I was in Jr high, early high school, and I had an electric guitar. Dad had come home with a Wollensak, as a German tape recorded. And it had an auxiliary input on it and I learned at a young age I could take the guitar output and plug it into the auxiliary input, crank it all the way up, play the guitar, turn its sound all the way up and it would sound something like: [makes loud buzzing noises mimicking guitar sound] Coolest sound I had every heard…. for about 13 seconds. I blew out the 8’ inch paper cone speakers and a couple of power tubes. Its kind of left a mark on me, like this is a cool sound, I gotta get into this. I was going to be an aeronautical engineer, all through high school, my dad was a fighter pilot in world war II, he had 96 missions over France. My grandfather had his PHD in mechanical engineering and actually wrote the maintenance Manuel for the B25 Mitchel bomber. So, I was going to be an aeronautical engineer, until, calculus first hour happened. Kay, I had a morning paper out, and an evening paper out. Okay! Take your XY X’s, translate it, rotate it, draw a hyperbola, spin the hyperbola, cut a hole in the hyperbola, and now find the volume and generate it. At that point I figured, you know, I’d rather play the wrong note, I couldn’t see myself designing something that will have someone else get killed because I misplaced a decimal point. But, all throughout high school I played in the youth symphony. My senior year, I audition Id and got first chair of the viola of the youth symphony. And I auditioned for the Tulsa Philharmonic. I guess they were desperate, and I turned pro when I was 17. Uh, went to the University of Kansas, was a Viola Major. A double major in Viola performance and music education. And at KU they had a computer music lab, and they had, we’re talking early-mid 1970’s. And they had an ARP 26 hardener. This is a synthesizer, analog synthesizer. You have never seen so many buttons, knobs, dials, flashing lights, flash chords, slider, path chords I was like ‘gollee’ what does this thing do, what does this thing do? I actually had a blast in that course, it got me down here. From there I came down to TU, finished up a bachelor’s in music ed, finished up a master’s in music ed, taught in Wichita, Kansas for three years, went back to school, picked up a master in viola performance. I have always believed that if are going to be a teacher, you must be able to do it. There is the old joke that can do, those that can’t teach, those that can’t teach become administrators. Um, nah, I kind of believe that if you’re going to teach, you ought to be able to produce. You ought to be able to do it. Does that make sense? B: It certainly does! So, moving into, as far like, the technical aspect of music, recording studio techniques, you have a lot of orchestra experience. How does that translate into the studio? J: Sure. Well I was a band and orchestra director for 27 years and the times that I wasn’t playing classical music with the orchestra, I was playing fiddle, guitar, keyboards, (unintelligible), for rock and roll bands. And that was an awful lot of fun, setting that stuff up, it gets really tiring after 15 years of lugging all that’s stuff around the back of a pick-up truck. It dawned on me, you know, that I can make music instead of lugging around all this PA gear and power amplifiers and all this other junk. Why don’t I just build a house, have recording studio, and have them come to me to make music, and I don’t have to lug all this stuff around. So I started SongSmith records in the mid-eighties back when we had, they were called ADAT machines. They recorded on a VHS cassette, and they would theoretically, and I say theoretically, synchronize together by two ADAT machines – and you could have, wow, 16 channels of digital audio. You could have a grand total of 34 minutes of digital audio. B: Wow. J: Of course, you could format the tape first before you had to record on to it, and that is about as much fun as having paint dry. But it was there, and we had 16 channels of digital audio. I’ve still got those ADAT machines and once in a while we’ll get an artist in the back of the studio that recorded with me 20 year ago say ‘Jeff! Do you still have to ADAT tapes?’ I say yeah. ‘Could we dump them into pro tools and clean them up a bit and rerelease? And I say sure. B: Fun stuff. Definitely. That’s really cool. So, what do you think, as far your students, and what you teach here, what has been the most challenging for your students? In terms of getting comfortable with technology or for musicians in general. J: Wow. That is kind of a tough questions. Each student is different, each student has their own strengths and weaknesses. On day one, I had to fill out a little, I call it a student data sheet. Tell me a little about yourself so I know who I am dealing with. A lot of times I will get students in the class who have already had pro tools experience they might run sound at their church. And I’ve got kids, ‘well I have sang in choir, but I want to learn how to record myself.’ And they don’t know anything about the technology. So, the challenge, for me as an instructor, is to teach on two or three different levels. So, I try to teach to the very, very raw beginner, to the kid who has had some experience, to those kids who could probably teach me a thing or two. I guess that’s the fun part about the teaching. In the class, I have to make sure that each kid knows we will only be playing with three things in audio. Frequency, amplitude, and time. And all the buttons, and knobs, and dials, [mimics with higher pitch] Buttons, and knobs, and dials, oh my! All have to do with either frequency, amplitude, or time. If you understand that basic concept than you go through ‘okay well what does this button do, how does it change the sound? B: So, a lot of it is experimenting, as you’re in the course. J: Yeah. And that’s how they learn. We tell them, for example, once we define frequency, amplitude or time are, we go into signal flow. We go, okay, what happens, how does the ear work. How does the microphone work? We trace the audio from vibrations of your voice, or your guitar or whatever, through your microphone, line, inputs…..into. What happens next? [jeff starts laughing….] It all goes in from the patch bay, and the patch bay goes into the microphones, and the micros to the IO’S, IO into the computer and we explain all that stuff in signal flow, signal flow, signal flow. All an audio engineer does, all day long is. I don’t hear the guitar in my left ear, why not? Or, I plugged this in, and I don’t hear anything. B: Right. J: Or I turn this knob, and nothing happened. Back up and figure out why. B: And that is what you give your student leeway to do. Figure out why they made a mistake, to figure out why and backtrack. J: If you tell them what they did wrong, they’ll never figure it out themselves. If they go throughout, and your cohort here, can attest to this. I will rarely just tell a kid an answer, I say, do you have an iPhone on ya? There’s this thing called google, look it up! I’ll wait. And then for example, when they learn the measurements, and what decibels are to measure frequency. I’ll ask them questions like ‘what’s the unit of measurement for frequency?’ and they’ll say, uhm, decibels? No that is the measure for amplitude. Man, it hertz if you don’t know this. Hertz being cycles per second. B: Right. J: Hertz being, you know, cycles per second. Hertz is the measurement. So, it hertz if you don’t know this! [both laugh…] B: That’s a good one actually! J: The stupider or funnier something is, they’ll remember it. B: It sticks better! Definitly it helps it stick. So as far as walking away from the class, how important is it for students after, in the aftermath, are these techniques that can easily be forgotten if they are not applied immediately. J: Oh gosh, I hope not. B: If you have students that come for, let’s say, do you teach a second course as well? J: Yes. There’s a Recording Studios Technique II (RST II) class, theoretically there are two sections of RST I, which will have 16 kids total, 32. Out of those 32 kids, if RST II is offered, we only take 8. So it’s like ¼ of those two classes, if they wanted, we are limited to 8. We did a really cool thing this last semester. The students had to produce a video and they had to literally, we shot it on a gopro camera, and it was actually pretty terrible, but they learned the process. They had to get a video program onto their computer, there are several free ones, and just experiment there, here’s the scene we shot. And the whole theme of the video was, and this is terrible, once again, I love my wife, but she has a problem with collecting small electrical appliances. If there is small electrical appliance made, she has it. She’s got four or five crockpots, I don’t know how many mixers she’s got, toasters, curling irons, you name it, those little vacuum thingies, if it is a small electrical appliance she has it. So the format of the class was, we’re going to make a video and you all have seen these videos of the poor animals you know, for the charities, and there’s this poor dog with one eye and its snowing outside and he’s missing a paw or something and there is a choke collar behind this poor animal. And well the idea was, we’re going to have small appliances, and they need a home. And they produce something absolutely hilarious. “Do you know a small appliance that needs a home that’s been abused? We’re sorry. SARI, the small appliance rights institute, so we made a video, and we got t-shirts with irons. One of the appliances was an iron that burned a hole in the t-shirt, so the kids were like no, no bad iron! Flatten it with the newspaper, and later on we use that same shirt with sorry with this big old iron burn on it, we’ll give you this shirt if we give us $19 a month. That is only 63 cents a day.” So I hope the kids learned a lot from that. Uh, they learned how to put it together, how to edit, how to synchronize the audio. One student actually wrote this really cool darkish sounding sad piano music that everyone wanted to use because it was so cool. B: So you have different types of projects and assignments in the class, of various ways. J: Oh yeah. B: So for exams, what should students expect for an exam, in a studio techniques class? How will their knowledge be tested? [Jeff laughs…] J: Exams! I figured kids are not in JR high school or elementary school anymore, I do not use true or false, multiple choice. Most of the tests and quizzes are done with fill in the blank and short answer. You know, hopefully using correct English and spelling things correctly. It’s not like ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” we’ll give you four choices, and you pick through the answers up here. I want you to go a little bit beyond that. B: Right. J: We also give the kids all kinds of interesting ways to help memorize things like that. For example, can you name the planets in order from the sun out? B: Probably not in order. J: Okay. I can. B: You can? J: My wife took an astronomy class once, kay, and if you take the first letter of each planets. If take the first letter of each planet, ‘M’ for Mercury, ‘V’ for Venus, ‘E’ for Earth, ‘M’ Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, back then Pluto. So, she came up with a very simple sentence. My very enormous man Jeff Smith understands nothing. B: She came up with that? J: She came up with that! Totally originally, and OH! Okay. So, you take all that information, you condense all that down. It is like taking all 5 great lakes. Heroin, Ontario, Michigan, siria, and superior. Spell the word HOMES, take that data and condense it. It is like putting it in a ZIP files for your brain where they can memorize some of these techniques, and hopefully it will not only help them in audio engineering but in life. B: Right. J: You know, if you’re on stage running sound for a band somewhere or in a church situation and all of a sudden thing die. You don’t want to turn to the guy next to you. Good gosh what do we do? As an audio engineer, you got to figure it out, quickly. B: Right. It is about application, not just knowing the what, or how, it is about knowing the why, the why you are doing what you’re doing. That is what differentiates it from a lot of other subjects. J: That’s the thing, if you know anything about Bloom’s Taxonomy of Education. Harking back to many, many years ago. If you have just a knowledge level question: ‘Who invented the telephone?’ You know? That’s knowledge level. If you have a question like, we’re gonna form a band, you’re gonna come up with a song, you’re gonna cover a song or something and you are are gonna form a single here in the class. We’re gonna pick members for the band, and you’re gonna go from there. That takes a lot more brains to be able to do that. B: It takes creativity! J: Absolutely. You gotta coordinate your schedule together, you gotta pick a song, come up with an original cover song, do the rehearsals, figure out how you’re gonna mic the drums. I’ll show you how to mic them, but you do it! And why you might do it this way. B: Right. It takes a lot of brain power to figure out what you’re going to do, how you’re going to do it, and why you’re going to do it. J: The more you use it the stronger it gets. B: Yeah. That’s really good. That’s actually a really good way of doing it. So, for current line up of courses, beyond Studio Techniques I and then II. J: Two happens in the spring. I teach private lessons on violin and viola through TCC. That’s only a handful of students, like two or three. B: Oh okay! J: I also teach private guitar out of my house, but that’s a different story. B: Do you have anything like a semester split? What do you teach during what semester? J: Oh okay. In the first semester, the fall semester, we only offer Studio Techniques I, and hopefully there will be two sections. Then from that, we’ll offer in the spring, studio techniques I and II. B: Oh cool! So, advice for students as well, for anyone who does not have experience. What should they expect going to class and what should they expect coming out of the class? J: Bring a pencil and a notepad! You’d be amazed on day one that sometimes there is not a whole lot of different between first graders and college kids. You write something on the board, and some kid in the back will say, is this going to be on the test? [Bethany laughs…] J: Ummm, YEAH! The idea is if it is on the board, I feel it is important enough that you need to know it. Because if you are successful in music, you know, you could make a lot of money. Pay all that taxes and social security and support me when I’m old…..er. B: Very good point! So, if you want to be successful, for musicians specifically, how important is it to learn studio techniques for your own music? J: Oh gosh! In the music business especially, what has been relatively successful for me, I call it a multiple income source. My main income for many, many years was teaching in public schools. On the side, I was playing classical music in two different Orchestras. The (unintelligible} Symphony and the Signature Symphony and occasionally the Tulsa Harmonic. The Tulsa Opera and the Tulsa Ballet. On the weekends, we were not doing classical, we were rocking and rolling in establishments. We call them gun and knife clubs. [Both laugh…] Bring your own, within a hundred miles of Tulsa. You know, within 200 miles. So you had money coming in from the rock n’ roll side, money coming in from teaching lessons on the weekends, money coming in from your teaching job, money coming in from your symphony gigs, then if you write music, you can create it that way, and get royalties from that. That way if any one leg of that collapses you have something else to depend on. It the music business, to really make it big, you have to be extremely good at ONE thing. And then you can afford everyone else to pay them to record your CD for you, to book you here and there, but the more you know about every aspect of music. How do you finger a saxophone, where’s the best way to mic a saxophone, or a flue, or a guitar, or a cello, or a base? Where does their sound come out from? Where does it sound the best? What kind of mic do you use? All of that stuff, the more you know, the more you’re worth. You apply everything in music. There was a time when my teaching career, where the school I was teaching, I had been there for five years, and they were going to close the school due to a reorganization plan. My last year teaching there they’d lost all the electives. The only elective you could take at this school was band, orchestra, or gym. No home ED, no foreign languages, nothing. That was it. They closed the school next year to reorganize. Orchestras fold, right or left sometimes. Schools change. And in the music business especially, you’ve got to have a backup plan. You get smart, by a house, accelerate the principle on that, so you pay it off early. We paid our first house off in 8 and a half years by accelerating the principle. If you anything about financing, that is a different topic. But that’s how you get successful. B: Very cool. So I hear it is important to be multifaceted but to also master one area. J: Well. If you wanna be really successful in music, you got to be able to sing like Garth Brooks, or Whitney Houston. Or, you have to be able to play that violin like Itzhak Perlman. That’s all he does. For me, I can’t do that. I am too much Attention Deficit Disorder. I get attracted by all the flashing lights. Wow, cool, we are recording this in garage band right? Neat stuff! And I’m watching all these little lights flashing over here and she turns around smiling listening to us on her headphones running through the, and I am wandering GEE! What is that knob do, OH, that is the interface there she’s running through. So for me, you know, I’ve done the six hours of practice everyday when I was at the Cleveland institute of music getting my viola masters. Six hours a day of the viola? Gee I hate the viola sometimes! You know? It’s like too much. Put it down, play the guitar sometimes, go play the fiddle in a country band somewhere and make it fun. B: But you put a lot of time into it. J: Oh yeah! B: That’s awesome! Just to go over an overview on your courses one more time. Studio Techniques I, Studio Techniques II, Viola… J: And violin.. B: Oh, you teach violin as well. J: Yeah. B: So those are private lessons. J: For both majors and non-majors. B: Do you have a special email address that your students can reach you at? And potential students as well. J: I have the TCC email, but I have had more luck with my own personal email. Would it be okay to do that one? B: YEAH J: My personal email is songsmithrecords@cox.net. Now if you go on the web and go to songsmithrecords.com, understand that I have been busy and haven’t updated the website for 15 or 17 years. It’s on my list of things to do I’m working on it but I’ve been busy. B: Alright, great, so where are your classes based at? What campus? J: We are based at the southeast campus. B: Sounds great, this has been Bethany Solomon and Jeff Smith at the TCC Connection. Thank you for listening and we hope to continue this series for the summer. J: Thank you Bethany, I appreciate your time. B: We appreciate you as well!

It doesn’t matter what language you are using, that kind of food is gross.DialogueA: Eu vou preparar uma salada. Você gosta mais de que? De rúcula, ou grião, ou alface? B: Não tem ainda aquela maionese na geladeira. A: Olha, até tem, mas já faz um tempão que a gente guardou ela, então eu nem sei se ela tá boa ainda. B: Sim! Ela está estragada, ai que nojo! Agora perdi até o apetite.A: I’m going to make a salad. Would you like rucula, or watercress, or lettuce? B: Isn’t there still some mayonnaise salad in the refrigerator?

Sometimes we feel pressed and want to get out of the supermarket as quickly as possible. Other days we are OK with slowing down the pace a little bit. In today’s lesson somebody is nice enough to let another go first in the checkout line. No doubt that someday the good deed will be paid back, and somebody will let you in line as well. And at least we’ll have enough Portuguese to thank them appropriately if this happens in Brazil.DialogueA: Olha, tem outra fila que abriu, vai você primeiro. B: Obrigada, mas é só isso que você tem?

I think plenty of people went on massive Internetshopping sprees. Did you chop off your hands, Lynn?L: Well, I bought some books, milk, snacks, lipsticks and...B: Wait, wait, wait, I remember that you just bought a lipsticklast week.L: Yeah, but, haven't you heard that boys can't understand thepersistent of the lipsticks to a girl? It just like when having a artclass in the childhood. Other kids had 32 or 48 color watercolorpens, but what you had was only a 2B pencil. Nothing can beworse than this.B: OK. Don't forget that the Double 11 is a day to celebrate thesingle one ordinary. What about introducing some love stories?L: Em, single and poverty clams me down. Seeing anaffectional film maybe a good choice. Let's do it.B: How about the Double Eleven? As a single dog, how areyou feeling when you walk on the road.I: Life is already hard, so please don't expose the truth. I justwant to change a topic. I have just seen a classic love movierecently.B: Wow, which one?I: Sliver Linings Playbook, directed by David O. Russellandthe film is staring by Jennifer Lawrence andRobert De Niro,and attracted a lot of fans when it was on show.B: What is the film mainly about?I: Well, it is adapted from a novel and the name is also comesfrom the main character's mantra Every Cloud Has A SliverLining. The film tellsa story of two people who have brokenup and rebuilt their lives.B: Which point you considered is the most attractive point.I: Em, when I watched the film, what left me the most waswhen life gives you a powerful blow, bark out what the fuckthen go on fighting like a soldier. And I think the love view inthis movie is the most authentic portrayal of love. “You are justanother one and I was just like you. Even though you were awisdom and my wife betrayed me, it doesn't matter! I am stilllove you”.B: It is amazing! This contrasts sharply with the Chineseattitude toward love.I: Yeah! This is admirable. I think the true love is “let her goand see if she would be return”.B: I just want to talk another style of love, Yes or no, it is aThailand's classical lesbian film in 2011, the film mainly focuson the two heroines who are from resistance to close, finallybreaking through the description of the secular and falling inlove with each other.S: Yeah, Kim and Pie are roommates, but at the beginning, littlemisunderstanding let them get in terrible relationship. In orderto getting along with Pie, Kim changes her bad habitsgradually. No matter how Pie annoyed, Kim always be verygentle to Pie.B: I envy that! And I also want to have such a roommate!But what you can do is just think about it.S: Okay, let's go ahead and see what will Pie does with Kim.Pie also moved by Kim's blandness and begins to open herheart to Kim.B: But it was often worse than wish. When things were goingon the road, the story began to go somewhere disappointing.S: Pie and Kim's admirers try to undermine their relationship.Fortunately with the help of the cafe's hostess, these two littlegirls are reconciled and be together happily.D: After talking about some lesbian film, let's talk about somegay film,"Maurice" is a gay romance film directed by JamesIvory. Two male English school chums found themselvesfalling in love at Cambridge. To regain his place in society,Clive gaveup his forbidden love--Maurice and married. Whilestaying with Clive and his shallow wife, Anne, Maurice finallydiscovered romance in the arms of Alec, the gamekeeper. L: What a beautiful sad love story! Maurice and Clive had aplatonic affair, but the fearful Clive subjugated his sexualityand married. After weathering this rejection, Maurice stayedtrue to his identity, and eventually was rewarded.D: Maurice's and Alec's main strain isn't sex but class.Forthright Alex was from the rural lower class, Maurice was astockbroker. They must met furtively -- in hotel rooms or the boathouse of Clive's country home. The potential for true loveseems limited. But Maurice, at least, was liberated.L:The subject is repressed homosexuality in pre-World War IEngland -- as adapted from E.M. Forster's autobiographicalnovel "Maurice." By showing nonphysical love betweenMaurice and Clive, the film prepares us for Maurice's laterphysical relationship with under-gamekeeper Alec. By the timeit happens, we are relieved for Maurice. The relatively mildsexual scenes seem inevitable and natural. Riching inatmosphere, its leisurely pace dwells on repressed passions inEdwardian society.SE: It's colder than before. Need you get warmth?L: Of course. The weather makes me a little cold. I require onenecessarily.SE: Recently, I have seen a movie which tells about the truthessence of love with ten stories made up. Every of them canmake people feel the temperature of happiness. With the Britishhumor it has, people can't help laughing. I think it's difficult forother ensemble film to be more successful and have no sense ofviolation.Maybe it's suitable for you to let your heart feelwarm.L: Woo, it heard great. Is it the famous film "Love Actually"?My roommate recommended it for me several days ago. Sheconsidered the world as a place filled with true love.

Brad Post, Create the Movement: Welcome to Create the Movement podcast. My name is Brad Post, and I'm sitting here with Josh Rich. Josh, how are you? Josh Rich, Create the Movement: Doing great. Brad, how are you? B: Doing well. J: Excellent. B: In this podcast, a few podcasts ago we were talking about social media, just overall. J: Kind of paid advertising. B: Paid advertising. What today do you specifically? J: We’re going to touch on Facebooks ads. B: Okay. J: And the reason why we’re going to do that, I kind of feel that if someone is just starting out doing a paid social media campaign, Facebook’s really the way to go. B: Okay. J: There’s a couple of reasons for that. First of all, in 2014, Pew Research Firm did a research study abou who all, how many people are on different social media platforms. B: Pew, like smells “pew”? J: P-E-W. B: Okay. J: They’re a big name. Basically, of adults that are on the internet actively, in some form, 71% on Facebook. B: Wow. J: 28% are on LinkedIn. Another 28 are on Pinterest. 26 are on Instagram. And 23 are on Twitter. B: Wow. LinkedIn’s taking over Twitter. J: Yeah. But, Facebook is like kicking butt. 71%. I mean, not even close to anything else. B: Okay. J: Definitely your biggest audience, for sure. And another couple of reasons: first of all, they make it really easy to advertise. I think they give you the most tools. It can be the most-targeted, because people put so much of their interests on there. LinkedIn is pretty targeted too, I guess, that’s a different market entirely. You don’t really sell things on LinkedIn, typically. B: Right. J: Also, you can have the most formats. You can display on the side. You can do a newsfeed. You can change it up pretty easily. One thing also, I looked at was click-through rates. Surprisingly, I really couldn’t find any good data on that. B: Okay. J: I don’t know if maybe it’s because paid ads are kind of a new thing in social media. In some cases, Facebook was better. In some cases, Twitter was better. It kind of depended on where I was looking. But, overall, I think that averaged-out, they’re probably the same click-through rates. But, I still think, given all the other reasons, I think Facebook is the way to go. B: Okay. J: So, whenever you’re starting a Facebook campaign, there are two things you need to narrow down first. The first one is your budget. The second one is your audience. So, the way that the budget works, I think I kind of touched on this last time, but to review, they have this term called Cost Per Optimized Impression. It’s basically a fancy way of saying cost per impression. B: Okay. J: So, opposed to a pay-per-click, which is like you pay every time you click on it. B: Right. J: So, the marketing term here is: CPM. Which stands for cost per thousand. Not cost per million. Basically, that means per every thousand impressions, and impression every time someone looks at it, it’s going to cost you this much. B: Okay. J: So, a two-dollar CPM means, that for every thousand people that look at it, it’s going to cost you two-dollars. B: Facebook will spend your money, too. J: Right! They will. So, Facebook calls it Cost per Optimized Impression, which basically just means that they have this special formula that optimizes the impressions to make it more favorable for you. B: Okay. J: But anyways, that’s how the budgeting works. So first, obviously, “How much do you want to spend?” And I’ve said this before, but, you need to plan for three months. If you can’t afford to do something for three months, then you shouldn’t do it. Now, within that three months, you should also be changing things. Don’t just ‘set it and forget it’ for three months, then see what happens. Do some split testing. Try some different colors. Try some different words. See what happens. You also want to think about scheduling for budgeting. So, if you sell hats and gloves, and a cold front’s coming in, you’re proba...
Brad Post, Create the Movement Josh Rich, Create the Movement Russ Frazier - Visigility Brad Post, Create the Movement: Welcome to Create the Movement podcast. We are joined with a special guest today. We've got a good friend of mine Russ with Visigility. Russ Frazier. Josh is here as well. Josh Rich, Create the Movement: Hello hello. B: Russ you and I have been connecting for probably over a year now. I think just because we have similar businesses - online marketing. You started Visigility? Russ Frazier – Visigility: Fall of 2014. B: Okay. So, a year and a half, basically? Right? R: Yes. B: Could you give us a little bit of history? What made you want to start Visigility? R: Sure. Well, first, thanks for having me here. B: Yes. J: Absolutely. R: It’s exciting to be here, and talk to you guys. Visigility was basically born out of a background that I built in e-commerce. B: Okay. R: A previous company I was with, I had started an organization to build e-commerce websites, and do marketing to promote those sites. Get them Google rankings. Help them with social media, and things like that. So, of that company, we built up to where we had probably about 500 clients. B: Wow. R: Had some really good successes. Saw some brands get some national exposure from the things that we did. In the fall of 2014, I was looking to kind of focus my efforts little bit more on marketing. So, we started the company called Visigility. And basically what we do there is, not just marketing, but we work on the whole sales-automation process. B: Okay. R: So, we’re helping people with more than just getting the word out. We’re helping them to try to make sales as well. B: Perfect. And that’s what we’re going to be talking about today. Right? Kind of the sales funnel and your process. So, when a client comes to you, what’s usually the first things you look, or talk to them about? R: First, I want to know their business inside and out. I want to know what sets them apart. If they don't know what sets them apart, then I help them identify that. So, I want to know why they're in business; what motivates them to get up in the morning and serve their customers. I’d like to know who their customers are, so that we can plan our language and communication around those folks and how they talk; where they hang out. J: Do you ever find that clients don't really know that information off the top of their head? R: A lot of them don't right away. So, we have to help them identify. J: We were just talking to a client this morning. And we asked them some pretty basic questions about their business. Like target audience, kind of what they do. And they were just very much like confused and caught off-guard by it. Apparently that’s a common thing. R: As marketing companies, I think that’s part of the value that we can bring to them. J: Getting them to think about things like branding, their audience, and how they intertwine. R: Yeah. And starting with knowing your audience is one of the most important things you can do. Because it will affect how you communicate, and where you communicate, things like that. B: Right. J: Absolutely. B: So, kind of gather that information. And then based on that information, and usually on their budget as well, come up with a marketing plan for them. R: Yeah. We’ll put a plan together. And what we try to do is identify a process that’s going to take the customer from never having heard of the company before, to actually becoming a customer. B: Okay. R: And then wanting to refer them to other potential customers. So, we call that the sales funnel. And what we’re doing is, we’re taking the top of the sales funnel, where people just get introduced to your company. And maybe they’ve never heard of you before in the past. So, that could be that they stumbled on a blog post or a Facebook post, or some other way that they became aware of you. And then there's lots of people that come in at the top of the funn...

アメリカ旅行が今回のテーマです。アメリカへの旅行を計画中のMasaは、Rachelにアドバイスを求めます。広いアメリカには見どころがたくさんあります。会話の中ではどのような場所が紹介されているでしょうか。 Download MP3 *** Script *** B: Hey Rachel! G: Hey Masa! B: I was wondering if you could give me some advice? G: Sure, what do you need advice on? B: I'm thinking about planning a trip to the U.S. during summer vacation, but I'm not sure where I should go. Do you have any suggestions? G: Wow, a trip to the U.S.? Let's see, I think most foreigners who go to the U.S. to visit usually want to go to New York. There're a lot of historical monuments like the Statue of Liberty, also several state parks, Broadway musicals are very popular there, and for people who like sports there's the New York Yankees, or the NFL Giants. B: New York really sounds interesting! How about Hawaii? G: I've never been to Hawaii myself, but I've heard that the weather there is very nice. The temperature never gets too cold, and never too hot. Most people who go to Hawaii seem to spend most of their time on the beaches or shopping. B: How about the water sports? Since it's summer, it'd be great to be able to go surfing. G: Of course! Not only surfing, but also snorkeling, scuba diving, and jet skiing are very popular. B: Are there sharks? G: Actually, yes….but I think most of them are small and harmless, like dog sharks. B: Oh…. How about Disney? It would be interesting to go to Disney in the U.S. and see how it differs from Disneyland in Tokyo. G: It depends which Disney park you want to go to. B: Are there several? G: Yes! A ton! In California there's Disney Land or Adventure Park, and in Florida there's Disney World, Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, Blizzard Beach, and Typhoon Lagoon! B: Wow! Florida has a lot! Thanks for your advice! (Written by Kimberly Cantrell)
