How do you answer what do you do?It's a question that many of us hate because we often don't have a concise answer. It might involve a label that limits us. And it doesn't cover the range of how we do, what we do and makes us special. At best, it's limiting and at worst it's confusing.Today is a special episode of The Unified Team Podcast.It's a milestone as it is the 100th episode and my guest is possibly the nicest man on Linkedin.Eduardo was one of my earliest connections on Linkedin. Yet, I never approached him because I didn't see a clear topic to discuss. He is one of those people who are hard to pigeonhole.

In Shana's own words:Growing up, I watched the people around me and saw so much pressure to pretend.  Most people were scripting their lives from the dictations of their parents and society…here is how you become a female or male adult…do these things, don't do these things…this is the life you ‘should' be leading…what your life should look like…this is the life you want; this binary is the only acceptable way.I was born into an abusive household and was raised inside an evangelical Christian cult.  Because I experienced my life almost entirely as high control and was punished for being myself.  Imaginary worlds were my only safe space and books became my friends and mentors.   My life doesn't look at all like my childhood.  I spent the last fifteen years studying psychology as an amateur, building on my emotional intelligence and personal awareness moving through life and healing.  I have changed so much in the last 7 years and as a result, so has the business since I started it part-time in 2016.Several years ago while leading group coaching for entrepreneurs and business owners of varying years and decades of experience I realized my scholarly studies were taking up more and more space in the world.   Through the process of building the firm and connecting with clients, I realized that our mission is larger than I originally imagined.  I needed to let our ethos, our culture and the brand take up more space in the world, support and work with more people in a deeper and more expansive way.My work went from focusing on empowering others to design their lives through intention to recognize the power of my work with leadership as well as in our individual lives and now focuses on Intentional and Ethical Leadership and Living. We empower people, and those who are also leaders, to connect with curiosity, respect, and accountability to transform their lives and leadership.  To build community and connection and to move away from the idea of a lonely leader at the top to understanding the power and strength of a community of voices driving innovation and profitability through a healthy culture. Learn more at:  https://www.concinnate.world/ Please leave a review or send us a Voice note letting us know what you enjoyed at:Back2Basics reconnecting to the essence of YOU (podpage.com)Follow us on IG and FB @Back2BasicsPodcast

I'm not much of a book reader for majority of my life (I'm 28 btw). However, this changed when I committed to the habit of reading back in 2022. From 1 book read in 2021, to 10 books in 2022, and eventually 34 books last year. This is the power of habit and compounding.

A French lawyer stated in 1863, "You are what you eat." For a very long time people thought that only referred to physical nutrition, but we consume brain, soul, and spirit food as well. During this Mental Health Awareness Month, I'd encourage you to consider what you are consuming. Does it truly nourish you? If so, should you consume more? Does it poison you? I had the honor of hosting an author event where Camisha Broussard shared from her memoir, Daddy Issues. This is a clip of that event. As an author, I have frequently collaborated with book store owners like The Shrine Cultural Center and The Book Reader's Venue to put on literacy events. I've collaborated with other podcasters, authors and entertainers. I've even collaborated with fans and listeners of this podcast as their feedback has made my writing, my events, my workshops and my books better.

"No man is an island" stated John Donne. As we approach Mother's Day that statement is a great reminder that we all owe our existence to two parents. And many of us owe our personal and professional success, in part, to those who collaborated with us in both small and big ways. This episode is not a normal podcast episode. It is an actual example of collaboration. As an author, I have frequently collaborated with book store owners like The Shrine Cultural Center and The Book Reader's Venue to put on literacy events. I've collaborated with other podcasters, authors and entertainers. I've even collaborated with fans and listeners of this podcast as their feedback has made my writing, my events, my workshops and my books better. Thanks so much for this collaboration.

We retrace our steps from enthusiastic fans who loved everything about reading and collecting comics, to one day wanting to draw them ourselves. And our appreciation of comic shops, cover burbs, word balloons, and Stan Lee alliteration is fully explored in the conversation. But what was the tipping point from reader to wannabe? How did we find out what an inker did, or what tools the professionals used? And who were the friends (and art heroes) who inspired us along the way?

One of my 12 month books is called the 80-20 principle by Richard Koch. Now, a 12-month book is one of the 12 books that I read every year. So every month, I'll have one of these books, read it, and then I'll implement. And these are books that have special lessons for me, stuff that I need to implement. Stuff that I want to work on, for the whole year. And what I used to do is, I used to read a lot of books I still do. I'm a Book Reader, I love reading books, I love reading, learning, but I don't implement as much as I should. So even though there's so many things in here, so many ideas, so many stories, so many, so many examples, I don't implement them in a way that it actually helps me. So I'm reading, re-reading, and I'm getting pleasure out of reading, but I'm not implementing, so it's not really making my life much better. And so I implemented this process where I would read one book, and then implement it for a month, and then read another one implement it at the end of the year, I go back to the first book, because there's probably more stuff in there that I can use. So if I finally finished one, I got everything out of it, then I'll replace it. But I've been on the same 12 books for a while now. Now I said one of those 12 books is the 8020 principle. And so the 8020 principle is something that I need to work on. And in fact, you probably all work on it. That's why I keep going through it over and over again. Now, this weekend, I was at the library with my kids getting them some books, and I came across this book, the 8020 manager by Richard Koch now, this guy's really milking this 8020 thing. I mean, he's he's gotten, I don't know, like eight or nine books on it, probably, I have I owe like three of them. And then he's got this way. And who knows how many more? So yeah, he's really honing in niching, down, right 80% of his income come from the 8020. So the 8020 principle is also known as The Pareto principle. And you've probably heard of that one before you, you kind of have an idea what I'm talking about. William Pareto was an Italian economist, who lived way back then, I don't know when he lived. I'm not a historian. So you can Google it if you want to end he discovered while doing some research that 80% of the wealth in Italy at the time was controlled by just 20% of the people. 20% of the families owned 80% of everything. That's pretty astonishing. And over time, other researchers, other scientists, whatever have discovered similar phenomena in just about all aspects of nature, and life. So for example, if you are a business owner, right, 80% of your profits will come from 20% of your products. Also, 80% of your sales will come from 20% of your customers. And on the flip side of that, 80% of your problems will also come from 20% of your customers, but usually not the thing 20% of customers are giving you revenue. If you have employees, 20% of your employees will be giving you 80% of your problems, right? And you know this to be true. So no matter what work you do, 80% of your results come from 20% of the tasks. Now, this is really counterintuitive, because we're told since we were born, that you got to diversify, you know, don't put all your eggs in one basket, you got to protect those eggs. Well, what if all the eggs are not worth protecting? What if there's a better way? Right? So like I said, Koch has written about this book, many books on this topic, and he has tons and tons of examples. But the best examples are ones to look at your own life, and see for yourself how the ratio works for you. So 80% of your good times - 80% of the fun is going to happen with just 20% of your friends. 20% of the people, you know. And in good times 20% People. Also, 80% of your fights are going to happen with 20% of the people you know, so good times, few people, bad times, different few people. So you make the call who you want to hang out with, right? It's up to you, and on and on and on. There's so many different examples in life that we can look at this. But then it gets even trickier if you go deeper. It's not just 80-20 Okay? But it can be 90-10 it can be 95-5, it can be even 99-1, just like the 1%, who now control 99% of the wealth in the world, my goal is to be one of them. So I'm not knocking this, but it's there. It's something we cannot hide from. So it starts with 80-20. And then it gets more and more and more condensed. As time goes by. And it has been this way, for generations, it's just an undeniable fact of life. Everything is not equal. And it never will be. I bet you didn't know that the supply to the markets as well. So in the 20 years, from 1990 to 2010. Got 20 years of data there, the S&P 500 index, grew an average of about 8%. A little bit a little bit down, but average 8% a year. Not Bad, right? But if you take out the gains of just the top 10 stocks, which is 5% of the market, 5% of the index, you take those out, the index was actually negative, on average of 3.3% every year. So you take out 10% of the top stocks, 10% of the stocks that did the best, and you're losing money on the index. So yeah, I mean, you want to beat the stock market, just buy the top 10 stocks, she's gonna need the whole index, and you can do much better than the whole index. Now, this is applied to other years. Yeah it does, according to FactSet. In 2021, the market was up a wami 28.7%. That's a pretty good year, right? S&P 500 up 28%. Guess what? Just five stocks made up 31% of that game, just five, in 2020, the market was up 18.5%. And the top five stocks are just 1% of the index made up of 62% of that year's gains. So 5 stocks, you got more than half of all the gains. 62% of all the games for that year was made up of just five stocks, no matter what you apply this to. Look, I mean, look for the instances that bring you the best results, and focus on those. So now how do we apply this to trading? I mean, you can apply this to all aspects of life. It's like you've read the book over and over again, to see what I can do, I do with my kids, I do with my business I do with my health, I do with my personal life, I try to make it as much simple and streamlined and stressless as I can. And the things that are bothering me the things that are causing me stress, I get rid of the 20% that suck, you gotta get rid of it. Maybe this is where we're the Jack Welch of GE got that from, you know, you take the bottom 20% of the people and you kick them out every year. I don't know if I agree with that. If they're doing their job, you let them stay. But yeah, they are not producing the results. But then in any employer, any business. 80% of the results come from 20% of the people. So maybe he should have been firing 80% of the people. I have a different ballgame. But how do we apply this to trading? Right? Let's make some money on it. What do we do? Well, it's like I say all the time, focus on what works. Focus on less, not more. I mean, it's like Richard and I were kindred spirits. We both keep talking about the same thing. But very few people listen. Very few people listen. Oh, tha's it. That's it. Do you see it? It doen't matter how many times I say it, right? Only 20% of the people that listen, or as you're gonna hear me and implement. That's hilarious. It works in everything. It's crazy. Okay, it's gonna get back this. So let's do this. All right, let's do this. Go through your trade log. I hope you'll give me one, right? All the trades that you've been doing for the past several years, go through it. And if you don't have a trade log, and you don't keep records of every single trade? Shame, shame, shame, you are missing out on a treasure trove of data that can make you better and that applies to you specifically, nobody else can give this to you. Nobody else can help you with this unless you have the data. This is your own treasure trove. This is your own trading history. It's not enough to go look at your statements. You got to record the stuff you got to record what was the trade? What was the strategy why you did the trade what was going on? I've been doing this for years and years and years. I mean, this binder right here. This is just one years of trades. This is just one year stuff that I have in here, different memberships and all that stuff, but I keep everything and I look at it. We go through it. That's the only way to get better. Right? And this is how you do it. When you go back to look at it. You will notice some things. 80% percent of your profits come from 20% of the strategies out there. So you need to focus on a strategy or handful of strategies that you do best and ignore the rest, stop jumping from shiny object to shiny object 80% of your losses will come from 20% of your trades. Okay, so you need to know how to limit the losses on those trades. Why did the loss happen? Find a way to fix it. I keep hearing from people "Oh, yeah, you know, I do good for months at a time, a bunch of trades at a time. And then whooosh I give it all that. Yeah, that's common, that's normal. That's the pattern, 80% of your losses come from 20% of your trades, but you got to know which trades, you got to know which strategy, you got to know why. Okay, 80% of your wins will be on 20% of the symbols. So you don't need to trade every stock under the sun. Focus, specialize. Remember the principle, right? 80% of your losses will be the result of 20% of your mistakes, you're going to make the same mistakes over and over and over until you fix them. And just a few just a handful of mistakes, you're gonna make a lot of mistakes. We all do. We're traders, we make mistakes, you get in at the wrong time, you buy the wrong stock, you do this wrong time you get out, you don't get out. We make lots of mistakes. Not all of them are deadly. Most of them don't even make any difference. But there are 20% of the mistakes that lead to 80% of your results and your losses. Okay, every mistake is not equal. Get rid of the biggest of the worst ones. So to get better, you got to niche down, not out, niche down. You want to trade less, not more, okay? Want to trade less? Not more, less trades, not more trades, focused, specialized niche, and you always want to trade with the odds in your favor. With that, I bid you adieu.

William H. Inmon (born 1945) is an American computer scientist, recognized by many as the father of the data warehouse. Inmon wrote the first book, held the first conference (with Arnie Barnett), wrote the first column in a magazine and was the first to offer classes in data warehousing. Inmon created the accepted definition of what a data warehouse is - a subject-oriented, nonvolatile, integrated, time-variant collection of data in support of management's decisions. Compared with the approach of the other pioneering architect of data warehousing, Ralph Kimball, Inmon's approach is often characterized as a top-down approach. 00:00 Intro 01:17 From failed Golf Career to a Computing one 03:06 Originality, Patterns & Database Design 04:37 Punch Cards, Magnetic Tapes, Fortran, Cobalt & Bits in IBM 1401s 11:16 First Book with Arnie Barnett, First Conference & Peer Pressure from Vendors 14:26 Winning over Marketing & Sales People vs IT Departments 18:15 Rise & Fall of IBM, Arrogance, Rudeness & Apathetic Company 20:04 Prism Solutions & Early Days of Data Warehousing, Dormant Data & Textual ETL 30:20 Corporate Information Factory, DataMarts & ETL 32:00 Inmon vs Kimball Approach of Data Architecture, Good, Bad & the Worse 36:15 Data Reliability with Data Marts vs Centralised Data Warehouse 39:00 Staging Area in Kimball System vs Vetting the Data 41:00 Metadata, Beethoven & Importance of Metadata, 45:00 Prolific Writing, Family of Writers & Edgar Allan Poe.

Heir is an erotic novel about an Indian princess of sixteen summers in 50 AD, married to a man older than her father, to secure the two kingdoms' fate. It is a story of Padmakishori who was obstinate enough not to accept an unfulfilled sexual life with her husband as a dictum of destiny. The story follows the events in the life of Padmakishori as she tried to secure her amorous way of life, intertwined with lives and decisions, memories and lives of four generations.This novel would appeal to readers who like a story set in ancient times, with elements of drama, continuity of the story through time, deception and strong characters with their flaws leading them.

Secrets from Strangers is my second book. I wrote this book after having a few life-changing encounters with complete strangers. Long story short, I was medically discharged from the United States Army in 2016 after I injured my spine, and honestly, after my injury, my life was turned upside down. The perspective I share in this book is the mindset that nearly saved my life. I realized that despite how difficult my disability has been, it has allowed me to slow my life down enough to soak more in along the way. It has allowed me to have conversations and encounters with people I otherwise would have never had. There are 18 “secrets” that I share in this book, from 18 encounters I have had with complete strangers, which share inspiring lessons to challenge the reader to change the way they think, face obstacles, and live their lives. My goal with this book is to help people overcome the obstacles they face, find more happiness in how they live and to be open to new experiences through sharing these “secrets I learned”.Books are available:http://www.timothynataleauthor.com/http://www.timothynataleauthor.com/shopWant to Start a PODCAST?https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=694901Follow on YOUTUBEhttp://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9iMq1fXI9DLmRNtpckUrigFollow on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/maria.hanashiro.7Feel free to SUBSCRIBE and SUPPORT the SHOW!Thank you so much!Support the show (http://www.buzzsprout.com/757583)

Waskaganish presents a classic Canadian epic of lost and found love, brutality, and murder, from the Polish pogroms to southern England, to regions of Quebec affected by the 1980s political unrest: Waskaganish, Montréal, and the Eastern Townships.We experience the unraveling of the connection between an exquisite blue diamond necklace and the missing 16.25 caret Eagle Diamond – one of the biggest diamonds ever recovered in the continental United States, stolen in 1964 from New York’s Museum of Natural History – and what lies beneath the cratonic rocks of Waskaganish, a small Cree community at the junction of the Rupert River and James Bay, and the lives of the Montrealers it touched.One man with deep-rooted connections to Waskaganish was wealthy, ruthless entrepreneur Robert Steinman. He and a young, geologist, Avrum Wood, the great-grandson of Polish-Jewish immigrant Charles Wood, who found the Eagle Diamond in 1876 on his rented farm in Eagle, Wisconsin, had a dream that changed forever the lives of those it touched, including the epic’s protagonist, striking, amber-eyed food and nutrition expert Hannah Epstein Star, internist Jonathan Star, Cree physician Rebecca Stone, and, ultimately, actor/director Kurt Garnet.We can identify and empathize with the protagonist as she struggles to maintain her moral compass and optimism in a society rife with pseudo-science, racism, insatiable greed, deceit, love, lust and loss, and brutality. The journey through the boreal forests of Waskaganish and the genteel urban quilt of the unique Montreal neighborhoods are described intimately as the lives of the leading characters emerge and the novel's complex plot unfolds.https://amzn.to/2teS0DOSTART YOUR OWN PODCAST:https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=694901Thank You so much for supporting this show.Support the show (http://www.buzzsprout.com/757583)

Nathan Davenport is being stalked by Isabella Ravini, the feral vampire who stole hishuman life over a hundred and sixty years ago. She made him her fledging, a slave forher dark, evil purposes—hunting humans. After a few years, she released him, andNathan reluctantly learned to accept the cursed life she’d foisted upon him.Over time he amassed a great fortune, which today has made him famousworldwide. Isabella decides she wants to be a part of this world of fame and fortuneNathan created for himself. She’s determined to marry him, and love has nothing to dowith it. His money is her primary target, and the fame and prestige attached to beingthe wife of one of the richest men in the world wouldn’t be so bad either.In an effort to evade her until he can figure out how to stop her, he hides at a safehouse he owns in New Orleans. One Saturday evening in NOLA, he decides to havedinner in the city. He chooses a quiet little Italian bistro, never imagining this nightwill change his life forever. The human woman who delivers his order isn’t a server,but the restaurant’s sous chef, a beautiful ethnic woman possessing the most deliciousblood scent he’s ever encountered.The moment Mia Peebles arrives at his table with his plate, tasting her becomesan obsession. Mia wants nothing to do with him because of Nathan’s reputation as aplayboy. So Nathan enchants her, feeds from her, but his lusts for her blood and bodyplay havoc with his thinking.Nathan finds a way to bring her into his life as his personal chef and quickly fallsin love with her. The trouble is Mia has no idea he’s a vampire because, during theenchanting episodes, Nathan blocked her memories of those sensual encounters.How will Nathan tell her the truth without losing her and keep Isabella fromfinding him? Or worst yet, will Isabella discover how much Mia has come to meanto him?Mia’s head shot up, her gaze slashing toward her right. The speaker was that drop-dead, gorgeous man she’d delivered the one top order to earlier and he was standing beside her holding a glass of wine. She swallowed the bite in her mouth and said, “This tends to be my normal dinner hour. How was your dinner?” She was surprised to find him still here, but not unusual she supposed. Tavania’s was one of the tamer establishments here on Bourbon Street. Guests, whether single or in a group often came here to eat, hook up to wifi and work or just hang out in a non-party atmosphere. “Amazing, actually. You’re a talented chef.” He took up residence on the stool next to her and sat his glass on the bar. Mia noticed him studying her. His eyes, the most beguiling she’d ever seen, held intrigue. She felt a little unnerved by his perusal, but she chalked it up to a customer desiring to speak to the chef. It happened all the time. Mostly with Joe because he was head chef. Happy guests often asked to speak to him. She had a role to play. So play it she would. Mia pushed aside her plate and smiled. “I’m Mia Peebles. Is this your first time at Tavania’s?” She extended her hand.https://www.amazon.com/Forever-Night-Vampire-Lana-Campbell-ebook/dp/B01LYV8C6Q/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_pdt_img_top?ie=UTF8#nav-tophttps://www.facebook.com/groSupport the show (http://www.buzzsprout.com/757583)

In The News: Apple Releases iOS 13.2 and iPadOS 13.2; Bringing Many Bug Fixes for Blind and Low Vision Users The US Supreme Court Domino s Pizza delivery case rejection, dished out Accessibility, the future, and why Domino s matters What Domino s Pizza got wrong about internet accessibility Add Vimeo to the Growing List of Large Websites Taking Accessibility Seriously At Long Last, ScripTalk Mobile Now Available on iOS EnVision AI Releases v2.0 for iOS And New Region Based Pricing Be My Eyes Welcomes the National Federation of the Blind to Specialized Help Orbit Research introduces the Orbit Teacher Platform There's a national shortage of Braille teachers and the situation is dire The Tap Strap wearable keyboard gets better with airmouse gestures We Found uno Braille at a Local Target, and it's Exactly What you would Expect it to Be From London, #GAConfEU 2019 Product Overview: Blind Shell Phone BlindShell is a intuitive and simple cell phone with big, tactile buttons and lots of features. In addition to making phone calls and sending text messages, you can get the current weather forecast, listen to Internet radio, or find out your current location. BlindShell works with AT&T and T-Mobile as well as other GSM networks. VOICE CONTROL With voice control you can give the phone voice commands without having to use the keypad! With Voice Control you can:: Call and send a message to a contact Open any application in the phone Get information about the weather Get your location. Address and GPS VOICE DICTATION Instead of using the keypad to input text, just simply say it. The phone will write it down as a text! Among others, you can use voice dictation for these actions: SMS dictation Email dictation Taking notes Dictating your agenda PHYSICAL KEYBOARD This phone has a physical keyboard with big, well spaced tangible buttons. We wanted the BlindShell Classic to have a premium keypad, and we believe that we succeeded. The spacing between the keys makes orientation on the keypad very easy, so you will be able to distinguish between the keys right away. No need to fumble with your fingers around to find the right button. No need to be worried about pressing the wrong button either. HIGHLIGHTS Many useful applications BlindShell includes a variety of useful features. With the Email client, you can write and receive emails from your friends and colleagues. With Internet radio you can listen to thousands of radio stations from around the world. The weather app will tell you the current weather and forecast for the next three days. The location app can tell you your current GPS location or hte nearest address. SOS emergency button If you get in to a situation where quick assistance from someone else is needed, you can use the SOS emergency button. Pressing the button for at least 3 seconds will call your emergency contact. (This contact can be set whenever you want). The outgoing emergency call needs to be confirmed by you, so you do not need to worry about making the call accidentally. APPLICATIONS & FEATURES BlindShell Classic is packed with features. You can just make calls and send messages, and nothing else. But, if you want to use the full potential of the phone, there is nothing in your way to make the most out of it. Main features Calls Call log SMS text messages SMS to multiple recipients Contacts Backing up and importing contacts Alarm Calendar Minute timer Notes Voice recorder Advanced features SOS emergency button E-mail Object tagging FM radio Internet radio Audio player Book Reader Service menu Weather forecast GPS location Color recognition If you would like to know more, or order a Blind Shell of your very own, visit the A.T. Guys product page Tip: iOS 13 Low Data Mode Low power mode can help you out of a jam when your battery is in those smaller percentage numbers. In iOS 13 the same idea can be applied to your data plan as Low Data Mode will let you conserve your precious megabytes when you start approaching the high end of the data cap allowed. Simply visit Settings, Cellular Data Options and explore the section labeled "Low Data Mode" to activate this tool. Sound Off: David Partrick starts us off with this question. "Greetings. I have heard Joe talk about his experience with the Surface Go. I now find myself in possession of one, and I am looking to find a way to use it. It came with a third party cover and keyboard. It s nice, and small, and I can type on it, but, I cannot get the function keys to work with either JAWS or Narrator. The Function modifier key appears to be ignored. I am wondering what keyboard Joe is using, and, if the folding keyboard Joe and JJ talked about on a recent BBQ would be a good match for the Surface Go. Thanks in advance. David" The Pluggable Keyboard is the one Joe was using in that episode. You will still need to seek out a case to protect the Surface's screen if you plan to travel with the device. Georgia has some insight about a previous show. "Hi J.J., Please have dean back on blind bargains. I was glad to hear about his chrome book coing out. Pizza with potatoes on it, and pizza with sweet potatoes. Pineapple, oh yes had it many times. It is good as well. The show notes--are they on the app? I could not find them. Having trouble getting to the bargains part of the app. Like the tips also. Do you put them in the notes? I am going to see if I can find those notes. Georgia kitchen" Greg Portch writes in with this question... "Hi, Joe was talking about older devices. Is an iphone 6s or Se fast enough for ios 13 if you are a voice over user I mean will the phone be sluggish, not asking about the current bugs in 13. Thanks, /Greg We haven't had time, what with all the Apple updates for 13 lately, to put the 6s through testing. But we've seen others say that it isnt horible. Probably not desireable for the long haul however. Next, Richard writes in with this comment. "The two of you talking over and or interrupting Constqantly makes listening to your pod cast extremely cringing! I started counting and perhaps every 5 seconds one or the other does a talk over so that neither ones comment can be understood. Check it out and perhaps you will see just how irritating this is to a person trying to listen to every word spoken. Nuff said and hope I don t have to type to you again." We posted this email because we like to be transparent about our craft and we do appreciate all remarks about our show. Podcasting is like cooking. A recipe can change according to the talent and background of the person, or people, cooking the ingredients. We never set out to conform to the NPR style or the bombastic over the top formats of morning radio or sports talk programs. Our idea, as it has been for almost a decade, is to make the listener feel like they were smack dab in the middle of a group discussion at a major convention. Technical limitations, such as the delay in voices traveling back and forth through the internet, also play a role in how tight we edited our vocal tracks. Over the years we ve managed to turn those delays into seamless conversation, however as noted by the email above, we recognize that not everyone likes this dialog flow. That is why we try to post our companion show notes in broadcast order for those who don t want to listen to the entire episode. Our audience can skip directly to the portion of the show that interests them by using our notes as a guide. Or, by design, they can just read the notes instead of listening to the show if they prefer. Over hundreds of recorded hours of us blathering on at one another about stuff, we re most proud of our consistency in tone and sound. We experiment with our format, our focus and formula from time to time. But our style is what we believe sets us apart from others in the field of podcasting. We have the amazing Patrick perdue to thank for all of this as he has been the bedrock of this audio endeavor. And by no means do we diminish his accomplishments out of fear that he has the power to make us look like idiots with the flick of an editorial finger. Nope, no worries at all about that end of year out takes. Episode. Shudder Last Word: The upcoming holidays have us thinking about travel and these two links seemed to fit that mindset.

Remaining open to change and saying yes to new opportunities - that's what has enabled Steve Robinson to keep climbing up the content creation ladder. He gives us his advice for anyone looking to work in broadcasting and contemplates whether he made the right choice by going down the path of radio and podcasting instead of sticking with his political career. In addition to spoiling our attempts to impress him by having already read everything we throw at him, he also gives his thoughts on education, networking, and transitioning between career fields. Also, Kate went on a date? Like a real person??? Woah.

#circuitpython #braille #madewithmu https://www.orbitresearch.com/product/orbit-reader-20/ Starting to hack around with a Python REPL, CircuitPython serial with Mu with the Orbit Reader 20 from Orbit Research. The goal/idea is, we have a real-time REPL in Python / serial with CircuitPython / terminal on-device ... so I thought we'd be able to output that to a braille reader. This is the start, using Mu and showing what's going on with the PyPortal Orbit Reader 20 – Braille Display, Book Reader and Note-taker. Includes an SD Card, Charger and a USB cable. The Orbit Reader 20 is the world’s most affordable Refreshable Braille Display. It is a unique 3-in-1 device and serves as a self-contained book reader, a note-taker and as a braille display by connecting to a computer or smartphone via USB or Bluetooth. Equipped with a 20-cell 8-dot display, the Orbit Reader 20 is based on revolutionary braille cell technology developed by Orbit Research. The breakthrough technology uses mainstream components and manufacturing processes to enable unique signage-quality refreshable braille at a fraction of the cost of the piezoelectric technology that has been used in braille cells so far. When used as a standalone reader, it enables the user to read any file from the SD card. These could be BRF and BRL formatted books, text files or files in any format. This allows students, especially in developing countries, to have content loaded on to the SD card by teachers and use the unit without any live connectivity to a computer or the internet. The reader has features for easy navigation, inserting and editing bookmarks, browsing through folders, etc. As a braille display, the Orbit Reader connects to PCs and Macs, iOS devices and Android devices. It provides Bluetooth and USB connectivity and can connect simultaneously to multiple devices. Using the screen reading capability on the computing device, such as Voiceover, Brailleback or popular PC screen readers the user can control the functions of their computer or smartphone, use their favorite apps, read and send text messages and email and browse the internet. As a note-taker, the Orbit Reader offers all essential file creation and editing functions. A user can create new files, save them on SD card and edit existing files. The Orbit Reader also includes file management features, allowing the user to rename, delete, copy, and create folders and files. The device is inherently language independent and prompts and menus can be easily localized for different geographies. While it offers a host of features, the Orbit Reader 20 is extremely easy to use and allows seamless and instantaneous switching between reader, note-taker and braille display modes, as well as selection between connected devices such as a computer or phone. The Orbit Reader 20 is very compact, measuring a little over an inch in height and about 6 inches by 4 inches and weighing under a pound. It includes a high-quality Perkins style keyboard with 8 keys and a space bar. It also has a cursor pad with 4 arrow keys and a select button, as well as rocker keys on each side of the braille display to control navigation. On the back of the unit is a recess in which are located an SD Card slot, a USB Micro B socket and a power button. The unit is powered by a user-replaceable fast-charging lithium battery which is recharged through the USB port. It is fluid and dust resistant and its construction is optimized for durability in extreme environmental conditions. Unique signage-quality Braille 20 eight-dot refreshable Braille cells Book-reader mode – read your favorite books and files from SD card Note-taker mode – takes notes and edit files Braille-display mode – connects to computers and mobile devices over USB and Bluetooth Use stand-alone or connected to a computer or mobile device Works with all popular screen readers on Windows, Mac OS, iOS, and Android Read and send messages and emails Browse the internet Control your computer or smart phone Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Jason Lavender has owned and operated a painting company for 25 years, but caught the real estate investing bug listening to podcasts and reading Danny Johnson’s book, Flipping Houses Exposed: 34 weeks in the life of a successful house flipper. Jason began flipping houses in September of 2017 and has since completed 5 flips, with 2 more underway. After this, he took on wholesaling in October of 2018, and has completed 4 deals with one more in the pipeline. He’s now a member of Justin Williams’ coaching program, and is focusing on learning to scale and automate. In this episode Jason joins Danny to talk about what it was like to move from reading the book to getting established in the market and in a position to grow. Jason shares the do’s and don’ts of starting out and the lessons he’s learned along his journey (some of them the hard way!), so this is a perfect episode for those who are still a little hesitant about taking that first step and making it happen.

The three c's model looks at 3 areas - challenge, confidence and coaching.
