For many artists, an art career takes many twists and turns—an adventure shaped by different mediums, jobs, and ways of sustaining creative work while at the same time, educating oneself with the histories of your chosen path. On this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with printmaker Charles Spitzack. We talk about his discovery of mokuhanga and how it connects to his broader printmaking practice. Charles shares his early experiences making mokuhanga, his teaching methods, and how his understanding of the medium developed through a Western American perspective. He also speaks about his time at the Mokuhanga Project Space, and his thoughts on the differences between oil-based and water-based mokuhanga.

Mokuhanga (木版画) - is a Japanese word meaning "wood" and "print." Traditionally, it refers to a relief printing method using woodblocks, water, natural handmade papers, and water-based pigments. With the rise of the sōsaku hanga (creative print) movement in the early to mid 20th century, mokuhanga expanded to include works made with Western oil pigments as well. Today, mokuhanga can be difficult to define, as many artists experiment with new approaches while others remain dedicated to traditional water-based methods. This balance between innovation and tradition shows that mokuhanga is limitless, continually evolving while still grounded in its past. sōsaku-hanga - or creative prints, is a style of printmaking which is predominantly, although not exclusively, prints made by one person. It started in the early twentieth century in Japan, in the same period as the shin-hanga movement. The artist designs, carves, and prints their own works. The designs, especially in the early days, may seem rudimentary but the creation of self-made prints was a breakthrough for printmakers moving away from where only a select group of carvers, printers and publishers created woodblock prints. Stephen Hazel (1934-20120 - was a painter and printmaker based in the Pacific Northwest. He created works on paper, and educated upon the subject. More info can be found, here.

Lady No. 6 (1975) 24.75" x 18.25" kentō - is the registration system used by printmakers in order to line up the colour woodblocks with your key block, or outline block, carved first. floating kentō - is like the traditional kentō registration technique but is carved on an "L" shaped piece of wood, and not onto the wood block. monotype print - is a unique print created from an image painted or drawn on a smooth surface, such as glass or metal, and then transferred to paper. Unlike most printmaking methods, where multiple copies of the same image can be produced, a monotype typically has a single, one-of-a-kind image. It's called a "mono" type because it is not part of an edition like traditional prints (e.g., lithographs, etchings), where you can make multiple copies. Mike Lyon - is an American artist. His medium has varied throughout his career such as "square tiles," or "pixels," through to making mokuhanga, monoprinting, and machine-assisted etching, drawing and mezzotint.

Kirk Haan graduated from high school, thinking he'd study pharmacy at the University of Saskatchewan, and walk out five years later. After one summer at a pharmacy, Haan realized he was after a more ‘hands-on' career in medicine. “I've kind of worked with my hands my whole life, just between rummaging around on a farm and always kind of building things,” he said. “Now it's using them to help people in a direct way.” Then, Haan found his passion — inside the laboratory. In 2018, Haan landed a summer position in Dr. Thomas Fisher's lab, studying osmoregulation — the mechanisms that govern our bodies' salt and fluid intake and output. He never looked back. By the time he entered medical school, Haan had completed two summer research projects, his honours degree, and his master's thesis in osmoregulation, all under Dr. Fisher's supervision. “He was a really good role model,” Haan said, noting he returned to Fisher's lab for up to 30 hours a week during his first and second year of medical school. Haan is set to resume his work at medical school next summer, after he's completed his PhD. Until then, he and Fisher are unravelling mechanisms involved with Synaptotagmin-11, and later Endophilin-A1, proteins associated with keeping the body's fluid-salt balance in check. Changes in those complexes are often seen in patients with neurodegenerative conditions, such as Parkinson's, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) and Alzheimer's disease. Dehydration and fluid imbalances also become more common as patients age. Haan calls this “low-hanging fruit” when patients arrive at Emergency Departments, worried about pharmaceutical interactions. “The more drugs you take, the more likely you are to have a drug interaction that causes a perturbation in this system,” said Haan. He believes Synaptotagmin-11 and Endophilin-A1 may play “a massive role” in the long-term regulation of our body fluids. Haan also credits his wife — who just entered medical school with her own PhD — and an “incredible community” of friends in Saskatoon for their support during his decades-long journey through two academic worlds. Although they will likely have to leave Saskatchewan to pursue his residency as an ear, nose and throat surgeon, Haan said the plan is to return. “With some of the things that I've learned and my passion for blending this basic science with clinical medicine, maybe somewhere down the line we find something that's really cool that can really help people,” he said.

Grandpa Bill will be joined by my co host Tam Veilleux on 8/27/25 at 1 p.m. EDT at our Wellness Wisdom edition of my BH Sales Kennel kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast. She will expand on the prelude/overview topics GB outlines in this video. Energy Almanac 2025 & 2026!The month of August has been a period of significant planetary activity, urging us to find a balance between external action and internal reflection. This is a time of both excitement and potential challenge, setting the stage for major shifts as we head into the last part of the year.Planetary Conjunctions and Alignments: The first part of August saw a powerful series of conjunctions. On August 6th, the second of three conjunctions between Saturn and Neptune occurred. This cosmic pairing of structure (Saturn) and intuition (Neptune) has been creating a period of deep karmic reflection and testing our patience. It's a time when we may be asked to face the consequences of past actions and to be more measured and thoughtful in our approach. This is an excellent opportunity to discuss how this might be a theme in the 2026 Almanac, as the final conjunction is coming up in February 2026.Venus and Jupiter's Close Approach: On August 12th, the two brightest planets, Venus and Jupiter, had a spectacular conjunction. This is a beautiful and expansive energy, bringing themes of abundance, love, and growth to the forefront. This event may have brought feelings of optimism and hope, a stark contrast to the heavier Saturn-Neptune energy.The Perseid Meteor Shower: Also peaking on August 12th, the Perseid meteor shower added a layer of excitement and cosmic wonder to the sky. Meteor showers are often seen as times of powerful inspiration, new beginnings, and making wishes.The Full Moon and New Moon: We had a Full Moon on August 9th, a time of culmination, emotional release, and letting go of what no longer serves us. Following that, the New Moon on August 23rd (just a day after your show!) marks a moment for setting new intentions and planting the seeds for future growth.Mercury's Movement: While Mercury is not in retrograde at this time, its current position and relationship with other planets are still influencing communication and thought processes. It's a good time to emphasize clear and mindful communication, especially with the more intense planetary energies in play.Saturn Retrograde: Saturn has been in retrograde since July 13th, and as the month progressed, its influence has become more pronounced. This retrograde period in Pisces is a time to re-evaluate our long-term goals and the foundations we've built. It can bring challenges but also opportunities for immense personal growth and stability if we are willing to do the internal work.#EnergyAlmanac,#Tam Veilleux,#Janet Hickox,#GrandpaBillPodcast#HolisticHealingHour#AstrologyRecap,#Astrology2025,#2026Almanac,#SpiritualGrowth,#AstrologyPodcast,#WellnessJourney,#NewMoon,#SaturnRetrograde,

Fed Chair Powell's Jackson Hole speech looms large for markets, with investors keenly awaiting his take on the economic outlook and the framework review. Brian Jacobsen expects Powell to strike a balanced tone, acknowledging labor market "fractures" while maintaining a hawkish bias on inflation. Jacobsen sees a 75% chance of a September rate cut, with the potential for two more cuts this year, but cautions that Powell may not commit to a specific path, citing data dependency and the Fed's dual mandate.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Dylan is a lifelong hunter and has been with onX for 10 years. He has seen the evolution of mapping and hunting software evolve from cards that had to be plugged into a handheld GPS device to the full featured apps we all know and use on our smart phones today. To say things have changed would be an understatement. On this episode, Dylan covers some of the new features within the onX platform and, just as importantly, how he and the team at onX approach the introduction of new features and technologies and how that's balanced against maintaining the soul and purity of the hunt itself. NOTABLE QUOTES: “There's probably some trackable public data somewhere of an elk herd migration that we could put into onX, but we're not going to.

In this episode, hosts Ray Powell and James Carouso interview Indonesian international law scholar Aristyo Darmawan about President Prabowo Subianto's transformative foreign policy during his first six months in office. The discussion reveals a dramatic shift in Indonesia's strategic positioning as the nation balances between major powers while pursuing ambitious economic goals.Darmawan highlights Indonesia's controversial decision to join BRICS, making it the first Southeast Asian nation to become a full member. This move reflects Prabowo's pragmatic approach to achieving his ambitious 8% economic growth target and funding expensive social programs like free nutritious meals for schoolchildren. The conversation explores Indonesia's surprising recognition of "overlapping claims" with China in the South China Sea through a joint development agreement - a decision that shocked foreign ministry officials and potentially signals implicit recognition of Beijing's nine-dash line claims.The episode examines Indonesia's delicate balancing act between U.S. and Chinese interests, including the recent tariff negotiations with the Trump administration that reduced tariffs from 32% to 19%. However, this deal came with significant concessions, including commitments to purchase American aircraft and remove trade barriers. The discussion reveals how public sentiment, particularly regarding the Palestinian conflict, influences Indonesian perceptions of the United States and benefits China's regional standing.Darmawan emphasizes Prabowo's highly personalized, top-down foreign policy approach, which has bypassed traditional bureaucratic channels and created uncertainty about Indonesia's strategic objectives. This "merry-go-round diplomacy" shows high activity but unclear goals, contrasting with previous administrations' more structured approaches.The conversation also addresses Indonesia's evolving role within ASEAN, its cautious stance on security groupings like AUKUS, and the challenges in its relationship with Australia. Aristyo, Ray, and Jim also discuss how Chinese propaganda efforts and the reduction of U.S. information initiatives like Radio Free Asia have shifted regional narratives.

In this insightful episode of SaaS Fuel, host Jeff Mains is joined by Mary Moore Simmons, VP of Engineering at Kibo. Together, they dive into the realities of building and scaling high-performing engineering teams, especially in fast-growth SaaS environments. Mary unpacks the nuanced challenges of evolving organizational processes, cultivating feedback-rich and psychologically safe cultures, handling “brilliant jerks,” and integrating AI to reduce grunt work and boost developer creativity. Tune in for a practical playbook on scaling teams, optimizing ways of working, and navigating technical debt as a business strategy, not just a developer's gripe.Key Takeaways[00:00:00] Feedback-Fueled Leadership: Mary's greatest fear as a leader is not knowing where she or her team might be going wrong—emphasizing feedback as the antidote to blind spots and organizational toxicity.[00:04:53] Process Check: When engineering processes feel slow or clunky as you scale, it's a sign to revisit and adapt. The right process should always speed teams up, not slow them down.[00:06:52] Culture First Hiring: Early hiring mistakes often relate to compromising on culture or failing to address culture misfits as teams grow. Brilliant jerks cost teams more in the long run, even if they are individually productive.[00:14:50] Handling Exits with Transparency: Delivering clear expectations and feedback means no one is surprised by tough decisions; transparent communication helps maintain trust when high-performers are let go for culture reasons.[00:20:38] Normalizing Feedback: Build an environment where feedback is everyday and safe—not just a scary signal of things going wrong. Celebrate when people speak up early and often.[00:27:00] AI Adoption: AI tools are powerful but still come with learning curves. Early adoption requires empathy and encouragement, especially in startups, and the biggest impact comes from knowledge sharing among engineers.[00:44:44] Technical Debt as Strategy: Make the business case for addressing technical debt—frame it with impact, not just engineering complaints, to get real buy-in from business leadership.Tweetable Quotes"My greatest fear as a leader is that I'm messing everything up and no one's telling me because they're too afraid." — Mary Moore Simmons"Process should always be speeding people up, not slowing them down." — Mary Moore Simmons"Hiring a brilliant jerk might make you faster today, but it will drag your team tomorrow." — Mary Moore Simmons"Feedback should be constant and small—don't let it become a scary event." — Mary Moore Simmons"Technical debt is not a developer gripe. It's a strategic conversation with real business impact." — Jeff Mains"AI tools double my speed, but they can also take me ten times in the wrong direction if I'm not paying attention."— Mary Moore SimmonsViral Topic: Amplifying Teams with AI"It's less about automation and more about amplification so if you're building a team, evolving your culture, or just trying to make scaling a little less chaotic, this episode has the clarity you didn't know you needed." — Jeff MainsAI & Automated Testing: "without automated testing, everything breaks. And I've experienced that. I think probably a lot of other founders have experienced that." — Jeff MainsSaaS Leadership LessonsLead with Feedback Openness: Proactively create a culture where feedback is routine, safe, and celebrated—not something to fear.Prioritize Psychological Safety: The best innovation happens when team...

Visit us at Network2020.org. The U.S. has slapped a 25% tariff on most Indian exports and threatened further measures over India's continued oil and arms deals with Russia. India isn't backing down—defending those ties as “time-tested” while rejecting an American offer of F‑35 fighter jets.To make sense of this standoff, we're revisiting a 2023 conversation on India's foreign policy dilemma: Can the world's largest democracy maintain strategic autonomy while deepening ties with the U.S. and other major powers? How does India balance its historic relationship with Moscow against its rivalry with Beijing? And what role will domestic politics play in shaping India's future on the global stage?This episode unpacks the forces driving India's choices—and why its push for sovereignty could redefine alliances, trade, and security across the Indo-Pacific.Music by Sergii Pavkin from Pixabay.

While openness can build trust, there's a fine line between “vulnerable” and “uh-oh.” Brené Brown, the goddess, says oversharing isn't true vulnerability—it can actually result in disconnection, distrust, and disengagement. So why do we overshare at work? Sometimes it is because we want to feel seen. Without our usual support systems—family, friends, faith, community—we sometimes turn our coworkers into unwilling therapists. Stress is another biggie – and can cause all of us to vent from time to time. We mistake emotional outbursts for “processing.” Sometimes we don't realize we've gone too far. Sometimes we misread culture. Social media has created norms of sharing that are in many cases not appropriate in the workplace. Oversharing risks include: damaged credibility; gossip fuel, confused boundaries and just uncomfortable moments, which lead to uncomfortable relationships. There is some clear guidance here - graphic health details, romantic chaos, money problems, coworker critiques, political or religious rants, constant negativity, and good old-fashioned trauma-dumping are no-gos. Save that for your best friend. But here's the nuance: not all sharing is bad. Strategic vulnerability builds trust when we consider relevance, timing, and audience. Saying “I'm overwhelmed” during a tough week = helpful. Saying “my child was arrested this week and is in jail” in the middle of the Monday morning staff meeting = probably nope. Telling your supervisor – in private – or a trusted coworker, probably yes. Your child's arrest is not relevant to the Monday meeting, but it could very well be relevant to your performance and the need for time off so talking with your boss is appropriate because it is relevant and just with your boss at a time which of course you have confirmed is convenient. Relevance. Timing. Audience. Boundaries aren't walls—they're fences with gates. Absolutely we should open those gates, but wisely.

Eating disorders are complicated illnesses that skyrocketed among teenagers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Pediatrician Eva Trujillo says they "literally rewire the brain," decrease brain size, and make it harder to concentrate and to regulate emotions. Malnutrition can slow the metabolism, impact bone density and even lead to cardiac arrest. But Eva says, with the right treatment, people can also recover fully. She's the president of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals and co-founder of Comenzar de Nuevo, a leading treatment facility in Latin America. Today on the show, host Emily Kwong talks about the physical and mental impacts of eating disorders with Dr. Trujillo and Moorea Friedmann, a teen mental health advocate and host of the podcast Balancing Act. Plus, how to recover in a world steeped in diet culture. Want us to cover more mental health topics? Tell us by emailing shortwave@npr.org! We'd love to know what you want to hear from us!
