On today's episode of the Law Down Under Podcast, we interview Larry Pozner, an internationally renowned expert on cross-examination. A veteran criminal defence trial lawyer, Larry has achieved success as counsel in several high-profile cases and represented major American organizations such as the American Insurance Group and the Denver Broncos. Larry began his career as a public defender in Colorado and went on to found two firms specializing in criminal defence and civil litigation. He taught at the University of Denver College of Law, where he was voted Best Professor, and has since held programs on trial tactics throughout the US, Canada and Brazil. He was recognised as Lawyer of the Year for Denver Criminal Defence (Non-White Collar) by The Best Lawyers in America, and has been listed in the publication since 1987. Today, we have the privilege of hosting Larry on the podcast while he is in New Zealand to present his revolutionary seminar on cross examination. We talk with Larry about his illustrious career which spans more than five decades, as well as the latest edition of his book, ‘Cross Examination: Science and Techniques', which was co-authored with expert trial attorney Roger Dodd.

It's always a pleasure to meet and talk with David Stevens and one never leaves his company without a strong desire to quickly write down some of the gems he's reeled off about garden design. He has more RHS medals than I can count plus a host of other awards, recognising more than fifty years of excellence in horticultural design.For this week's LYG Live, we thought it would be useful to have a case study for David and John Stirland to discuss and we're grateful to one of our new members Mirjam Tigchelaar from the Netherlands for allowing us to use photographs showing the evolution of her garden project. It's an opportunity for David to outline the main points to consider before embarking on a garden project of any size. We cover planning, groundwork, garden buildings, water features, sculptures, lighting, containers, turf and, of course, planting. As ever, the key aspects are highlighted under our chapters tab for easy access.NB: It would be useful to be able to see the photographs under discussion on our live broadcast (which is streamed on the LYG FB Page) so here's the link to Mirjam's post so you can see for yourself what we're discussing: https://bit.ly/3dtcGyQ With thanks to our UK-based sponsors Fitzgerald Laing Decorators: for a free quote and advice on any project, here's their Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/3zvPicB

Although we have made great advances there is still an immeasurable gap in what there is left to discover. Alex Filippenko joins we today to share his vast knowledge as an astrophysicist that has been exploring fundamental physics, black holes, galaxies and more for over 40 years. He breaks down quantum entanglement and the expanding universe and a way that is digestible for nearly everyone.

We go for it, we climb the mountain because it's there, first because it's interesting, but secondly, because it ends up having unanticipated spin offs.” [1:14:26] “to have novel insights, I've just got to take in data that I can't yet predict how it's going to be useful.” Tom Bilyeu [1:17:33] “as physicists, as scientists, initially, we come across these new ideas, quantum entanglement, and you have to just struggle with them and work hard on them and approach them from different perspectives. It's not going to be easy, but good things are hard to do and hard things are good to do.” [1:19:26] “it's the quality of the time that you live. That's actually more important than the duration” [1:23:29] “You can't just say there are a lot of stars out there, and surely they're teaming with life. There are a lot of factors that lead to life, and then intelligence and mechanical ability at our level. And I think they're fairly rare. I don't think we're unique, but I think they're pretty rare.” [1:56:11] Follow Alex Filippenko: Website: https://astro.berkeley.edu/people/alex-filippenko/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-filippenko-a35520a1/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alex.filippenko Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/filippenkoalex/ Guest Bio: Alex Filippenko is a Richard & Rhoda Goldman Distinguished Professor in the Physical Sciences, and a Miller Senior Fellow in the Miller Institute for Basic Research in Science (UC Berkeley).

This is the link I talk about in today's show. You will get access to my brand-new book launching on November 1, 2020. MY CHILD'S HEALTHY LIFE : THE EXPERT SECRETS ROADMAP, plus my brand new online TV show, HEALTH SECRETS, launching on October 17th. https://forms.gle/eM2TvudCaAHPw9Kf8Today's episode. Come and meet Professor Ulrik Wisloff from Norway. If you have ever wanted to lower your risk form the number one casue of sickness and death amongst adults all over the world, then you must tune in to this episode. Short bio for Professor Wisloff.Ulrik Wisløff is a researcher, a professor and an entrepreneur in the field of exercise physiology, and the Head of the Cardiac Exercise Research Group (55 employees) (ntnu.edu/cerg) at the Dept. of Circulation and Medical Imaging, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, and he is also a Honorary Professor at University of Queensland Australia. He was appointed professor in 2008 and quickly built up an international, transdisciplinary and competitive group, as documented by >280 peer-reviewed publications and ~72 000 citations. According to Google Scholar, he figures among the world’s 4 most cited scientists in the broad field of “exercise” and the most cited Exercise Physiologist worldwide. Many of his publications demonstrate his group’s capacity to translate basic experimental research into clinical use in a short timeframe. He has served as PI of several successful national and international collaborations, demonstrating scientific leadership. This led to creation of a calculator to estimate fitness and so predict death in the general population. The calculator is free and available on the web and all app stores. To date 9.5 million users have used the fitness calculator; they also agreed to share their data in research. The American Heart Association now advocates the use of our fitness calculator in clinical practice (Circulation, 2016). Wisløff is also the inventor of the Personalized Activity Intelligence (PAI); a metric that calculates how much physical activity a person needs to be protected against life-style related disease and premature death. The PAI app is free and available in all app stores. Wisløff’s group has translated basic experimental evidence into clinical trials (and patient benefit) within a remarkably short timeframe, with research spanning from molecules to society, and back again. His record of accomplishment demonstrates leadership, capability and innovation required to perform ground-breaking research. Wisløff is also a committed mentor who actively supports next-generation scientists, and have personally supervised 22 postdoctoral fellows and 38 PhD students, who have gone on to have successful careers in both industry and academia. In February 2020 professor Ulrik Wisloffis was awarded the Norwegian Health Assocation's (Nasjonalforeningen for folkehelsen's) Heart Research Award. The price was handed over by the King of Norway.
A man somehow brighter than his fluorescent yellow glasses, we sit down with Professor Scott Tice this week. We've been looking forward to this episode for a long time and if you watch at all you'll probably figure out why pretty quickly. The man who was robbed of a 5 star review on ratemyprofessors.com enlightens us on what he learned from opening a recording studio right out of college, and what bands can do to make the most out of time in the studio. He also gives out the worst driving advice in the history of the program.

Large classes pose tough challenges for instructors and colleges. After all, how do you craft a meaningful experience for 250 people (or more)? Rachel Davenport, a senior lecturer at Texas State University, has taught so many large classes that she jokes she has trouble readjusting to a small seminar room. She has been recognized with several awards for hear teaching, and students regularly sing her praises (she was named “Best Professor at Texas State University” in 2013 by readers of Study Break magazine.) EdSurge sat down with Davenport last week during the WCET conference in Denver to talk about her approach to teaching, and what technologies she’s tried—and ones she avoids.
