Tina Peters is going to prison for trying to have a hand in overturning election results. Tuesday afternoon, two organizations - Free Speech for People and the Coalition for Good Governance - held a virtual press briefing where they and experts like Georgia Tech's Dr. Rich DeMillo and Cal-Berkley's Dr. Richard Stark made the irrefutable case that there was (and still is!) a multi-state plot to overturn the 2020 election for Donald Trump - and with stolen voting system software, may succeed in doing so in a month. Susan Greenhalgh was on the panel and she joined me to tie up any loose ends from that briefing, which I also have audio from for you.

Tyson Ross grew up playing baseball in Oakland. He went on to play Cal (Berkley) and was drafted by his hometown team the Oakland A's in 2008. Ross pitched 10 seasons in MLB and was selected to the All-Star team in 2014 (Padres). After hanging up the spikes, Ross started Loyal to My Soil, a non-profit that provides free baseball camps to kids in the Bay area. He also works in development for the Dodgers. This episode is special because you hear directly from Tyson, about why he felt the responsibility to give back to his community. The Bay area is changing dramatically and fewer kids are playing baseball than when he grew up. Fewer kids have the opportunity to play than when he grew up. Tyson and his organization at Loyal to My Soil are working to improve that.We also talked about his journey in baseball, his playing career, and his family. Tyson's brother is an MLB player for the Brewers, and his Dad saved a person's life in the stands (crazy story, Lol).

Stanford, Cal & SMU to The ACC.  Is it a good or bad thing or maybe it is not a thing at all, just like the money those teams are receiving from TV revenues.

Over the weekend, news broke that Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh would likely not be suspended for the first four games of the 2023 college football season, after initially agreeing to the punishment a few weeks prior. Dan Wetzel, Ross Dellenger & SI's Pat Forde dive into the NCAA's internal politics that resulted in this news and the organization's stunning "not a cheeseburger" comments that sent this story from semi-reasonable to absurd.What's clear in all of this is that it will take so long to adjudicate, that Harbaugh may once again return to the NFL in early 2024, right when a full penalty would be issued, letting him coach this season in its entirety and get away scot-free.In other news, the ACC's attempt to acquire Stanford, Cal-Berkley & SMU has reportedly hit a major snag. ACC stalwarts Florida State, Clemson, NC State & North Carolina are allegedly not in favor of the three new entrants and any deal seems unlikely. The guys talk about what it means for the ACC, the four dissenting schools & the suddenly very lonely Stanford.In less than two weeks, we have actual college football action. The crew conducts a draft to pick their favorite six games in the opening week of the season.Closing out the show, a brief entry into the People's Court where the important question is asked: is the Goodyear Blimp spying on SEC schools on behalf of Ohio State?0:00 - Jim Harbaugh's 4-game suspension likely on hold33:05 - ACC's attempt to bring in SMU, Cal, Stanford likely DOA47:25 - Week 0/Week 1 Games draft57:45 - People's Court: Spy BlimpsFollow Dan @DanWetzelFollow Pat @ByPatFordeFollow Ross @RossDellengerCheck out all the episodes of the College Football Enquirer and the rest of the Yahoo Sports podcast family at https://apple.co/3zEuTQj or at Yahoo Sports PodcastsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Growing up, Mike attended Hatboro Horsham High School outside of Philadelphia, where he broke the National 100m Backstroke record during his junior year and was one of the top swim recruits in the nation coming out of high school.  After an impressive 4 year swim career at Cal Berkeley, where he also competed at the Olympic trials, Mike Thomas traded diving into the swimming pool for jumping into wild fires. Mike began training to become a wildland firefighter for Cal Fire. And soon found himself on the front lines battling some of the largest wildfires in California State history. Mike and I discuss what it's like to be on the front lines of historic wildfires, his training to become a Swiftwater and flood rescue technician and his current job of paramedic. Mike and I also get into what he calls the toughest challenge he ever faced, the untimely death of his dad who was diagnosed and battled with leukemia during his junior year at Berkeley. Man, that's got to be really hard. Mike and I also discuss the importance of establishing a nighttime routine that sets your next day up for success, the book that most influenced his life and why hard work and humility are the trademarks of a champion. At 24 years old, Mike is the youngest guest we've had on the podcast and one of the most impressive. You can't help but be impressed and motivated after you speak with him. It's remarkable how he tackles the obstacles life throws at him and the tenacity and focus he attacks the goals he places in front of him.

We talk to The University of Wisconsin Women's XC coach Mackenzie Wartenberger about her time as a talented prep athlete (2:04 800m) coming into Cal Berkley with Alysia, how her track career was highly affected by pressure and race anxiety, how she has carried these lessons into her 11 year coaching career so far, what it's like to coach through a pandemic and how she keeps the women engaged and motivated as well as her thoughts on navigating any plans for motherhood and climbing the ranks of her career. "In sport, if you have torn hamstring you rehab the hamstring and you don't hide the fact that you have a torn hamstring. Thats something that you work on. If you struggle mentally with anxiety or expectation or depression or any of those things, that’s really internalized still . That's not something thats spoken about or shared. I think there is still a lot of shame applied to that struggle, instead of treating it like a muscle-when you strain a muscle you’ve got to rehab the muscle and then you’ve got to strengthen the muscle and then sometimes that muscle still hurts and you’ve got to back off. From a mental perspective I think a similar approach can be really helpful - to treat it like a normal process, it isn’t linear it’s not flipping a light switch ….. that’s a perspective that I try to bring to coaching as much as possible”for in depth show notes head to our site Keeping-Track.comAnd don't forget to get your 20% off Gatorade Endurance products as you "Dial It In" with your training details this month!

Phil’s guest on this episode of the IT Career Energizer podcast is Jen Looper, a Google Developer Expert and a Cloud Developer Advocate Lead at Microsoft with over 18 years’ experience as a web and mobile developer, specialising in creating cross-platform mobile apps.  She is also the founder and CEO of Vue Vixens, which is an initiative promoting diversity in the Vue.js community. In this episode, Phil and Jen Looper discuss why making connections by physically meeting people is still the most effective way to network and uncover new career opportunities. They talk about how the frontend is changing. In particular, the impact the faster frameworks like Svelte are going to have. Jen also explains why those who are new to the industry can benefit from focusing on open source.   KEY TAKEAWAYS: (2.50) TOP CAREER TIP Network as much as you can. In particular, attend user groups and meetups. It is surprising how much face time will help you. People remember you better and you make stronger connections this way. When you are looking for a job you will be surprised by how much easier it is to find one when you know more people.   (4.12) WORST CAREER MOMENT At one stage Jen worked in a workplace that was a bit rough around the edges, in general. For example, the CEO lost his temper and threw a chair at one of her female colleagues He tried to physically intimidate Jen too. But, she was taller than him so the act of her standing up and towering over him was enough to calm things down a little. Working in a place like that was awful. But, it taught Jen that if you are working in an environment where you have to use physical cues to get your point across, it is time to move on.   (5.14) CAREER HIGHLIGHT Jen and her team of Irish developers earned a Star Award for their work on an insurance application, which they did for Sun Life. It was definitely a career highlight, which felt all the better because it is unusual for remote teams to win these kinds of corporate recognition awards. She especially enjoyed seeing each team members’ careers take off after they had won the award.   (7.44) THE FUTURE OF CAREERS IN I.T Right now, Jen is excited about what is going on at the frontend. In particular with the new frameworks like Svelte, which are going to really simplify interfaces and improve performance. These changes will make a huge difference to people who live in areas of the world that still have slow connections.   (8.53) THE REVEAL What first attracted you to a career in I.T.? – When it came to tech, Jen was an early adopter. When she realised she was good at programming working in IT was a natural step. What’s the best career advice you received? – Make a 1 year and a 5-year career plan. Jen does and she reviews them every 3 to 6 months. What’s the worst career advice you received? – From college, Jen wanted to go to Cal Berkley. But, instead of being advised how to do that, the college’s suggestion was that she explore becoming a sommelier because women had a heightened sense of taste and smell. What would you do if you started your career now? – Jen would start with open source and embrace the community around it. What are your current career objectives? – Jen has just moved into managing technical teams, so she is currently focusing on doing that well. What’s your number one non-technical skill? – Being a good networker and an active listener. How do you keep your own career energized? – Keep reading, keep following interesting people, keep building and continue to grow. What do you do away from technology? – Jen has just moved house, so has been busy making a new home. She is also enjoying learning to use Procreate app, an Apple Pencil and her iPad to create paintings, diagrams and art.   (14.25) FINAL CAREER TIP Keep learning, teach and become a mentor. When you do that you continually improve and will be helping the next generation to step up. The world is going to need a lot of people to maintain and evolve its tech. Jen is really excited to be helping people from across the world to get involved in tech, in particular, on the frontend.   BEST MOMENTS (2.58) – Jen - “Attend user groups and meetups. Meeting face to face is a very effective way to build a strong network.” (4.27) – Jen - “Avoid confrontational workplaces, the chances are you will have to leave quickly, so why put yourself through it?” (9.33) – Jen - “Make a 1 year and a 5-year career plan and review them every 3 to 6 months.” (11.28) – Jen - “Embrace open source, in particular, if you are just starting out.” (12.23) – Jen - “Cultivate active listening, to become a good communicator.” (13.18) – Jen - “Keep learning, teaching and mentoring. Doing all three will build you up and help the next generation.”   ABOUT THE HOST – PHIL BURGESS Phil Burgess is an independent IT consultant who has spent the last 20 years helping organisations to design, develop and implement software solutions.  Phil has always had an interest in helping others to develop and advance their careers.  And in 2017 Phil started the I.T.

You all are in for a treat today! I have lifelong friend and forever teammate Caroline Coble on the podcast today. We grew up togetherin Colorado where we were soccer teammates for over 10 years. Caroline continued her career at Cal Berkley where she unfortunately tore her ACL. She goes through the rehab process with me but mostly talks about how she used that as a way to grow. It was challenging, but once she learned to listen to her body, she could appreciate the growth and progress. Caroline is now a Professional Triathlete as of 2019! She is quickly becoming one of the people to be known in the sport as she breaks barriers and competes at the highest level all while still working a full time job. During the podcast she said how she helps herself get through... "Mile 17 at the end of a marathon at the end of an Ironman, I really try and take a deep breath and lighten the mood. I take a deep breath and say, 'Like it ain’t no shit.' Honestly it helps so much. It puts a smile on my face, makes me feel relaxed, and reminds me that I chose to do this." Caroline ended the podcast with this awesome quote, "Scars mean you have a story and you came through on the other side." Hope you all enjoy this episode!

A star at Cal-Berkley, Joe Kapp led the Bears to a Rose Bowl victory and was drafted by the Washington Redskins in the 18th round of the 1959 NFL Draft. However, Washington and Kapp squabbled over terms, and Kapp decided to take his game north to the Canadian Football League and the Calgary Stampeders. After spending two years with Calgary, Kapp was traded to the British Columbia Lions (in 1961) and led them to a Grey Cup Championship in 1964. But winning in Canada wasn’t enough for Kapp. A native of New Mexico, he wanted to play in the U.S. and after the 1966 season made his intentions known. Somehow, some way, Jim Finks, the General Manager of the Minnesota Vikings engineered an incredible trade, and tricky transaction that involved trading players, waiving players and four teams: the Vikings, the expansion New Orleans Saints, the CFL’s BC Lions and Toronto Argonauts. But the move paid off for the Vikings and in just three years, Kapp led Minnesota to an NFL Championship. But … his career in Minnesota was short-lived. He only played for the Vikings for three years, and just one year for the Patriots before his career was over. But what a career it was.  Edward Gruver who has written several articles for the Professional Football Researcher’s Association, and who has a new book coming out about the great rivalry between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Oakland Raiders called, “Hell With the Lid Off: Inside the Steelers-Raiders Rivalry That Changed Pro Football,” joins the podcast for a look back at the fabulous career of Joe Kapp. Links: Sports' Forgotten Heroes website Sports' Forgotten Heroes Patreon Page Sports' Forgotten Heroes twitter ©2018 Sports' Forgotten Heroes

We interview Astrid Frisch Jordan of Ecotours de Mexico, Puerto Vallarta and find out about the humpback whale migration to the bay. Also, Revolution Day Celebrations in Puerto Vallarta, listeners questions answered and more.   Listen to The Podcast     Hello fellow travelers, welcome this episode of the Puerto Vallarta Travel show. I am your host Barry Kessler and I am just so happy to be introducing you to my favorite vacation destination, and maybe even yours, Puerto Vallarta Mexico. [caption id="attachment_196" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] La Palapa, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] That music you were just listing to is performed by Alberto Perez, the owner of the La Palapa Group of Restaurants. Those are La Palapa, The El Dorado Restaurant, and at night for dinner The El Dorado transforms into the ever so romantic Vista Grill with those dramatic views of the Los Muertos Pier all lit up at night in beautiful colors. Of course, at La Palapa you can enjoy that same view of the Los Muertos Pier all day long for breakfast, lunch or dinner, seated with your toes in the sand right at the water’s edge. It’s so romantic, it’s so Puerto Vallarta my friends! Today we are going to be talking about whale watching in Puerto Vallarta with Astrid Frisch Jordan from Ecotours de Mexico, Puerto Vallarta, [caption id="attachment_1982" align="alignright" width="200"] Ecotours de Mexico[/caption] but first, let’s see what’s happening this week, the 22nd day of November, 2017. Revolution Day Celebrations in Puerto Vallarta [caption id="attachment_1959" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Revolution Day, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] Puerto Vallarta, as well as All of Mexico Celebrates Revolution Day The 3rd Monday of every November This holiday celebrates the beginning of the Mexican Revolution in 1910. The holiday itself commemorates the day, November 20th of 1910, when Madero denounced President Díaz, declared himself president of Mexico and called for a national insurrection. The History of the Mexican Revolution [caption id="attachment_1987" align="alignleft" width="223"] General Porfirio Diaz[/caption] I got this information from a website called office holidays.com and I have a link to it in my show notes. If you want to know about Mexican, Pilipino, Mozambiqueian, holidays, they have them listed. Someone went through all that trouble so check that out. Anyway, a little history about Revolution Day for you all, and by the way, take note of the names you are hearing here. Names of many of the streets you will find not only in Downtown and on the Southside of Vallarta, but in almost every town and village in Mexico it seems. But here we go…. For most of Mexico's developing history, a small minority of the people were in control of most of the country's power and wealth, while the [caption id="attachment_1960" align="alignright" width="300"] Revolution Day, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico[/caption] majority of the population worked in poverty. As the rift between the poor and rich grew under the leadership of The President, General Porfirio Díaz, who was the hero of the battle of Pueblo, the holiday celebrated on cinco de mayo. Well Diaz really was a repressive dictator who ruled over Mexico for almost 30 years, from 1884 to 1911. The poor were brutally treated during that period of time.  Opposition of Díaz did surface, when Francisco I. Madero, educated in Europe and at the University of California, Dude went to Cal Berkley, go figure, anyway, Madero led a series of strikes throughout the Mexico. Díaz was pressured into holding an election in 1910, in which Madero was able to gather a significant number of the votes. Although Díaz was at one time a strong supporter of the one-term limit, he seemed to have changed his mind and had Madero imprisoned, feeling that the people of Mexico just weren't ready for democracy. [caption id="attachment_1962" align="alignright" width="247"] Francisco I. Madero[/caption] Once Madero was released from prison, he continued his battle against Díaz in an attempt to have him overthrown. During this time, several other Mexican folk heroes began to emerge, including the well-known Pancho Villa in the north, and the peasant Emiliano Zapata in the south, who were able to harass the Mexican army and wrest control of their respective regions. Díaz was unable to control the spread of the insurgence and resigned in May, 1911, with the signing of the Treaty of Ciudad Juárez, after which he fled to France. Madero was elected president, but was opposed by Emiliano Zapata who didn't have time for the orderly implementation of Madero's planned land reforms. So in November of 1911,  Zapata denounced Madero as president and took the position for himself. He controlled the state of Morelos, where he chased out the estate owners and divided their lands to the peasants. Later, in 1919, Zapata was assassinated by Jesus Guajardo acting under orders from General Pablo Gonzalez. But that’s another story. [caption id="attachment_1988" align="alignleft" width="276"] Benito Juarez[/caption] Unfortunately, during this time the country split into many different factions, and bands of guerillas roamed across the country destroying and burning down many large haciendas and ranchos. Madero was later taken prisoner and executed, and the entire country was thrown into a state of disorder for several years, meanwhile Pancho Villa was rampaging through the north, and different factions fought for presidential control. [caption id="attachment_1963" align="alignleft" width="218"] Venustiano Carranza[/caption] Eventually, Venustiano Carranza rose to the presidency, and organized an important convention whose outcome was the Constitution of 1917, which is still in effect today. Carranza made land reform an important part of the constitution which resulted in the ejido, or farm cooperative program that redistributed much of the country's land from the wealthy land holders to the peasants. The ejidos are still in place today and comprise nearly half of all the farmland in Mexico as well as much of the land surrounding the Puerto Vallarta area. So how do they celebrate Revolution Day in Puerto Vallarta? They close the schools and make it a holiday of course with parades including military processions, school children, social clubs, everyone gets into the action. So if you ever find yourself in Vallarta this time of year, just another holiday to celebrate, that’s all! [caption id="attachment_1989" align="alignright" width="284"] Emiliano Zapata[/caption] Pilgrimage to Our Lady of Guadalupe Speaking of Holidays and celebrations, Coming up Next week we are going to be talking about the upcoming 13-day pilgrimage to Our Lady of Guadalupe Cathedral. Traditionally it’s 12, but in Vallarta, they do 13, so stay tuned for that, and if you are in town the pilgrimage begins on November the 30th and extends then for 13 days culminating on the 12th of December. [caption id="attachment_1974" align="aligncenter" width="2988"] Inglesia de Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe[/caption] I was checking my Twitter feed the other day and say that I missed a few tweets from listeners David and Lucia Garcia, from Miami Florida who were visiting Vallarta with their two young daughters. I’m sending them a microphone to hear about their adventures with children. Something I haven’t done yet, hear from you families who come to paradise on vacation. Looking at their photos, they did a lot and look like they really had a great time. We are going to hear from them in a week or two so thanks David and Lucia, for agreeing to come on and share with the listeners your experiences in paradise with your kids.   It's Thanksgiving time and if you happen to find yourself in Puerto Vallarta for Thanksgiving, you will not have any problems finding the traditional turkey dinner with all the fixings. Restaurants all over town are more than happy to accommodate all the tourists and expats who crave their carved bird with all the tastes of home. Of course, you can have that American grub, I’m sticking to the regular menu thank you very much! I can get turkey any time. Happy Hour Board [caption id="attachment_1975" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] JR's Happy Hour Board[/caption] JR has Revitalized his Happy Hour Board,…. Have a look at it by clicking on the link, and get happy! Really Happy! http://vallartainfo.com/hhb/ Last week we talked about Skips questions about buses, and I wanted to get to his other questions. I asked JR for some help here so here goes… Skip writes...I have been to Rhythms of the Night in Las Caletas. I see from a map that this is in the Yelapa/Las Animas beach area. Is this a private property or can a person take a panga there as well? JR answers..Officially every beach is public, (up to 50M from high water), but Las Caletas is controlled by Vallarta Adventures, all the infrastructure is theirs. So if you kayak in, no bathrooms for you. Skip writes...I love to hike and my brother in law and I  will be doing the Boca de Tomatlan-Las Animas hike that you video archived. Can a person hike to Las Caletas or Yelapa from Boca/ Las Animas? [caption id="attachment_1976" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Map Las Animas to Playa Quimixto[/caption] JR answers...Well Archie, John Huston’s chef, lived in Quimixto and, I think, sometimes hiked a trail, west to Caletas, but probably took a panga. Now Skip,  there is a trail that goes from Las Animas to Playa Quimixto. It's a good, easy trail and it will take you another hour or so. Lots of people hike to the falls from the beach from there. Just remember that many tourists have found that beach too, and lots of tours go there. From there, so you could hike there and then take a panga the rest of the way to las Caletas. and finally Skip writes...Somebody told me they rented horses and took them to Yelapa from Boca, but that was in a bar and alcohol may have been a factor in the accuracy of the aforementioned claim. JR answers...The horse story is BS. By the way, a Great bar on the way on the Boca - Las Animas hike, see my map. Okay skip, I hope that answers your questions. I can't wait to hear back from you about it that hike if you happen to take it that is. Okay let’s get to our guest. Ecotours de Mexico [caption id="attachment_1950" align="aligncenter" width="1000"] Ecotours de Mexico, Puerto Vallarta[/caption] The first time I saw a whale in the Bahia de Banderas was 30 years ago. I was enjoying daiquiris with my buddy Chuck and his family, in this tower overlooking the ocean at the marina Vallarta, and I saw this huge whale, breach, just came right up out of the water. I couldn’t believe it! It wasn’t the alcohol either. [caption id="attachment_1969" align="alignleft" width="685"] Astrid Frisch Jordan[/caption] I don’t know if you remember my friend Eduardo Solarzano, he is my photographer for the Puerto Vallarta Travel Show. He is available for his photography services you know. You can hear our podcast where we talk about restaurants and his services. [caption id="attachment_277" align="alignright" width="300"] Eduardo Solorzano. Photographer for the Puerto Vallarta Travel Show[/caption] Anyway, Eduardo told me about Astrid and Ecotours de Puerto Vallarta. Said I need to talk to her about the many tours they offer, but most of all, the whale watching tours she has, so I checked out their website and low and behold, they offer some terrific tour packages as well as the whale watching, and Astrid is a biologist, really knows her stuff and when you hear our conversation, you will find out that they do more than tours, they do important research too. Reall cool, so lets go right now to Marina Vallarta, to the offices of Ecotours de Mexico, Puerto Vallarta, and visit with Astrid Frisch Jordan.

It was a delight to have met her and as I said, this company is doing more than business, they are doing research that benefits the whales. This research takes lots of time and effort, but they do it so they can give back, and I really like that. So thanks Astrid for what you do for these wonderful creatures!
