When we sit Zazen, even if we're working with a koan, we do not actively try to achieve insight. But nonetheless, Chan and Zen masters throughout history have exhorted us to awaken to Reality. How does insight happen when you're "just sitting?" How do you awaken to what you have not yet seen without getting caught up in concepts of enlightenment and delusion, before and after? How do you lean into the unknown if you're trying to let go of any kind of doing at all?
Howie Chan is an influence strategist, branding expert, and marketing consultant who specializes in the psychology behind human decision-making. After losing a $10 million pitch early in his career, Howie became obsessed with understanding the invisible forces that shape behavior, communication, leadership, storytelling, and negotiation. Today, he helps MedTech companies and professionals build stronger brands and attract better opportunities by applying behavioral science and influence psychology. On this episode we talk about: The $10 million pitch Howie lost and how it sparked his obsession with influence psychology How getting laid off after 20 years in the corporate world pushed Howie into entrepreneurship Why experts should use LinkedIn to build a professional brand and attract opportunities The difference between a personal brand and a professional brand—and why solving problems matters more than follower counts How podcasts, strategic associations, and social proof can build trust and accelerate your influence Top 3 Takeaways Turn failure into a learning opportunity. Instead of dwelling on a loss, ask, “What do I not know?” and figure out what you can learn to prevent the same mistake from happening again. Make your professional brand clear, not clever. Your LinkedIn profile should immediately communicate who you help and what problems you solve. Focus on the quality of opportunities you attract rather than vanity metrics like follower counts. Build influence through a flywheel of visibility, trust, and association. People first need to notice you, then remember you, trust you, and ultimately choose or recommend you. Podcasting can accelerate that process by allowing you to consistently demonstrate expertise and associate your brand with respected experts. Notable Quotes “There are a lot of hidden things that we don't know about. We think we know, but we don't, that's influencing decision making every single day.” “Make it clear. Not clever.” “Every transaction moves at the speed of trust.” Connect with Howie Chan: LinkedIn: Howie Chan Website: https://www.howiechan.com/ Other: Expert Influence Quiz — Take Howie's free quiz to identify gaps in your influence flywheel.

Wendy Chan, CEO of Lode Gold Resources, joins Mining Stock Daily to break down the company's flagship Fremont Gold Mine project in Mariposa County, California — a fully patented, past-producing underground mine that's been sitting dormant since a 1942 wartime shutdown despite historical grades of 10.7 g/t gold. She walks through the recently updated mineral resource estimate (1.11 Moz Indicated at 1.84 g/t and 1.98 Moz Inferred at 1.86 g/t) and the incremental permitting approach the company is using to fast-track toward a 2027 pre-feasibility study. Chan also touches on the recently closed $9.7 million financing, AI-generated drill targets, and Lode Gold's broader portfolio, including the Dingman project in Ontario.

Chosen by Maff, directed and co-written by Sammo Hung, Wheels on Meals was a Hong Kong–Spanish co-production from Golden Harvest and Laurenfilm, filmed extensively on location around Barcelona and Tarragona. Reliable published budget figures are difficult to verify, but the international production gave the film a distinctive scale and sun-drenched European setting rarely seen in Hong Kong action cinema at the time. Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung reunited as the leading trio, supported by Spanish actress Lola Forner and American martial artists Benny “The Jet” Urquidez and Keith Vitali.Released in Hong Kong on 17 August 1984, the film became one of the territory's highest-grossing local releases of the year. Its combination of acrobatic stunt work, broad comedy and carefully staged martial-arts action helped establish it as a favourite of the VHS generation. Decades later, Wheels on Meals remains celebrated for the chemistry between its three stars and for delivering fight choreography clearly enough that viewers can actually see what is happening—an increasingly revolutionary concept.TRAILER GUY PLOT SYNOPSISIn the sun-soaked streets of Barcelona, two cousins have the perfect business: fast food, four wheels and absolutely no regard for workplace health and safety.But when a mysterious young pickpocket crosses their path, Thomas and David are dragged into a dangerous plot involving ruthless criminals, a missing inheritance and one remarkably questionable private detective.This time, the meals are fast. The fists are faster. And somewhere in Spain, an insurance company is quietly refusing to cover any of it.FUN FACTSThe film's original English title was reportedly Meals on Wheels, but Golden Harvest reversed the words after two previous company releases beginning with the letter “M” performed poorly.In Japan, the film was released under the title Spartan X.Jackie Chan also supervised the film's action choreography.Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao had all trained together as members of the Seven Little Fortunes at the China Drama Academy.Lola Forner had previously represented Spain at the Miss World competition.Benny Urquidez was a highly successful professional kickboxer nicknamed “The Jet.”Chan and Urquidez's confrontation is frequently ranked by martial-arts cinema fans among Jackie Chan's finest screen fights.Keith Vitali reportedly struck Jackie Chan in the throat accidentally while filming one of their fight sequences.The catering van used by Thomas and David is fitted with hidden compartments, electronic gadgets and enough custom equipment to make it the kung-fu equivalent of the Batmobile.The three leading men later reunited for another major Hong Kong action comedy, Dragons Forever, released in 1988.SUPPORT THE SHOW If you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon here.

Raising boys without a man that your son can respect and see is a gamble. 10 out of 10 I would not recommend any woman to raise their son without a great male role model. Your son needs to see who he could possibly become, and if the men around your child are not great and do not do well in life, what does your son have to look forward to? In today's episode I talk about mothers raising their sons without men and the pros and cons of it. If this is something you're interested in listening to please continue to listen, and if this is something, you've also been questioning continue to listen. Welcome to another episode of Cozy Womb podcast and this season. I'm focusing on the thought of if I had a son, what would I do differently.Follow us on Chan & Pods channelhttps://www.bonfire.com/store/the-chanbepoddin-spot/Instagram @TheczywmbpodcastX @theczywmbpod#parentinginabetterway #cozywomb #ifihadason https://www.youtube.com/@chanpods Subscribe to the show on YT and on your podcast appAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of the show we are carrying on with our mission to watch a whole bunch of 80s action movies starring Jackie Chan as we are discussing Project A. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about the phenomenon of the Three Dragon (Jackie Chan, Yuen Biao and Sammo Hung), the idea of leaving Wu Xia stories behind and doing a kung fu movie in a more familiar period setting and the guts it took to stage a production as lavish and vast in scope as this one. We also talk about how this movie barely makes any sense as far as plot is concerned, Jackie Chan's daredevil stunts including the iconic clock tower fall paying homage Harold Llyod's Safety Last, Chan's unmatched athleticism and whether it's enough to love this movie despite its other blatantly obvious shortcomings.Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy BurrowsFeaturing: Kevin & Erin (The Podcast that Wouldn't Die)Head over to uncutgemspodcast.com to find all of our archival episodes and more!Follow us on Twitter (@UncutGemsPod), IG (@UncutGemsPod) and Facebook (@UncutGemsPod)Buy us a coffee over at Ko-Fi.com (ko-fi.com/uncutgemspod)Subscribe to our Patreon!

Patient has patchy white spots after braces — do you really whiten, or will that just make the spots stand out more?Tetracycline staining darker than your darkest shade tab — is bleaching even worth attempting, or is it veneers by default?A single dark, root-filled central incisor — can you fix it without picking up a drill at all?And how do you talk a patient through weeks, shades and cost so they actually consent to the slow, non-invasive route?This is Part 2 of the trayless whitening series with Dr Wyman Chan — inventor of trayless teeth whitening and the Get2Smile system — and Dr Elvis Law, who now runs around 90% of his whitening trayless. Part 1 covered the science and the everyday protocol; this part applies it to the three cases dentists find hardest, with the costing and consent conversations that make them work.Protrusive Dental Pearl: Treating Family and FriendsAlmost every clinician has a story about a case that went wrong on a family member, a friend, or a loved one. It's not a random fluke. When we treat someone we love, we put our guard down — we relax the checklist, skip a step, get driven by emotion, and lose our judgement.So if you must treat family and friends, stay razor-sharp and treat them exactly as you would a stranger. Be extra vigilant, extra hot on your protocols, and take the emotion out of it. If that tooth needs a root canal, it needs a root canal — don't bend the plan to preserve pulp vitality that was never the right call. The best pearl is not to treat loved ones at all; the real-world one is to not lose your judgement when you do.What You'll Take From This EpisodeThe frosted glass model — a patient-ready way to explain white spots: enamel is clear glass, dentine is a yellow sponge, and acid has turned the glass frosty.A two-stage white spot protocol — remineralise and condition the gums first, then whiten trayless, and why a dirty tray would have sabotaged the result.Whitening tetracycline staining — realistic timelines, why darker teeth lift faster, and how to frame it honestly against veneers.The non-vital tooth without a drill — whiten every tooth to target, then paint the single dark tooth to match, and why leakage (not the bleach) causes rebound.Costing and consent — charging “almost by time,” staged reviews, and matching invasiveness to the mouth in front of you.Highlights of This Episode00:00 Teaser01:05 Trayless Whitening Part 2: Recap of Part 103:55 Protrusive Dental Pearl: Treating Family and Friends06:55 Whitening White Spot Lesions After Orthodontics11:55 Whiten First or Restore First?

In this fascinating conversation, I sit down with Dr. Edith Chan, a holistic Chinese medicine doctor, author, speaker, and expert in consciousness and human evolution. We explore Qigong, energy healing, acupuncture, blindfold vision, telepathy, spoon bending, and the hidden abilities many of us were never taught to recognize. Dr. Edith also shares how her journey from Harvard and the tech world led her back to Chinese medicine, spiritual healing, and a deeper understanding of what human beings are truly capable of.We also talk about why joy, play, heart coherence, and nervous system regulation may be essential for unlocking human potential. Dr. Edith explains how slowing down and listening to the body can reveal deeper wisdom, why extraordinary abilities should never become an ego trap, and how reconnecting with our natural state can support healing and transformation.

Uber and other gig companies spent hundreds of millions of dollars to exempt themselves from state labor laws, ensuring their drivers remained classified as independent contractors without a minimum wage, healthcare, or sick leave.Blames “the system:” “I'll be the first to say that our adversarial legal system can be particularly tough for survivors. By its nature, the trial process is designed to extract facts ... And the fact that all of this occurs in public view makes it all the more difficult …” “The system" isn't asking victims what they were wearing—Uber's highly paid defense attorneys areWest is shifting the blame from his own legal department's aggressive, victim-blaming litigation strategies onto the abstract concept of the "adversarial legal system."the New York Times and unsealed court documents from the multidistrict litigation (MDL) reveal, once a survivor steps into a courtroom, Uber's high-priced defense lawyers resort to classic, traumatizing victim-blaming. Asking women what they were wearing or weaponizing their personal histories to discredit them is a deliberate strategy to minimize corporate payoutsCherry picks one favorable moment: West quotes a single federal judge from a February trial who praised Uber's attorneys, saying they did not engage in "the slightest bit of shaming" and that he wanted it "clear on the record."one favorable quote from one judge in one specific trial: "Look, this one guy said we're nice, so the New York Times must be lying."Bullshits the bigger picture: “Uber was among the first companies to end forced arbitration and mandatory confidentiality agreements in matters involving sexual assault and sexual harassment”Yes, they ended individual forced arbitration, but they fought ruthlessly to ensure survivors still cannot form class-action lawsuits. Forcing victims to fight Uber one-on-one is a massive legal advantage for the companyLies about ESG data: “Uber was also the first—and continues to be one of the only—companies to voluntarily and consistently publish data on the reports of sexual assault”They published "safety data," but as the Times revealed, they hid hundreds of thousands of complaints by categorizing them as "unaudited" or "less serious."While Uber publicly reported a few thousand incidents, internal documents showed they received over 400,000 reports of sexual assault or misconduct between 2017 and 2022.Jefferies ESG chief says investors overstate SpaceX governance risksAniket Shah, Jefferies' global head of sustainability: Investors who avoid SpaceX because of Elon Musk's extraordinary control over the company may be letting governance concerns outweigh potential long-term returns"The idea that there's an — in quotes — acceptable form of good governance" is one that "I highly question," Shah said. "People who try to put governance into some kind of straight-jacket are too simple-minded and, frankly speaking, not looking at data."“Investors who rely on governance checklists alone risk overlooking companies capable of generating substantial long-term returns, particularly founder-led businesses that concentrate decision-making power in a single executive.”IN OR OUT on SpaceX?

From a Gen X teachers conference in Virginia to a White Plum Asanga gathering in the Dutch wheat fields, this talk traces a month of encounters with the living, ever-expanding family of Western Buddhism — Theravadan monks from Guadalajara, Tendai priests in Springfield, Chan teachers from Dublin — and brings back the felt sense that our practice is part of something vastly larger than any single room. ★ Support this podcast ★

Technovation with Peter High (CIO, CTO, CDO, CXO Interviews)
The companies that define an era often appear irrational before they appear inevitable. In this episode of Technoventure, Peter High speaks with FPV Ventures Co-Founder & Managing Partner Wesley Chan about building products at Google, founding Google Ventures, investing against consensus, and recognizing founders with 100-year visions. Wesley explains how first-principles thinking helped him identify companies such as Canva and why the most important investment question may be, “What if it goes right?” They also explore: Why Google prioritized speed and relevance over keeping users on its site How Google Ventures aligned corporate capital with founder interests What Wesley saw in Canva after 111 investors said no Why specialized data can create more durable AI businesses How Bill Campbell taught leaders to protect their time and energy Why incentives frequently matter more than policies or intentions Listen for an operator-investor's perspective on product excellence, AI investing, organizational design, and building companies capable of outliving their founders.
Christian Chan, chief investment officer at AssetMark, says that the overall macroeconomic environment is okay — growing above trend but not at exciting levels — but inflation is worrisome, which should have investors looking elsewhere for diversification and protection. The protection side is because he feels fixed-income investments are not as effective at diversifying risk in an inflationary environment. As a result, he is looking at adding precious metals to portfolios, but he also says increasing international exposure and moving from technology and moving toward energy and consumer-driven sectors should smooth out the ride in a volatile market. In the Talking Technicals segment, Jason Brown of The Brown Report, says he remains bullish in the long-term, but he is bearish for the short term because he wonders "What remains that can take us higher?" Brown, who hosts the "Money, Markets and Mindset" podcast says while there are some positive signs keeping the market stable, "We might be due for a re-set." Factoring in inflation, oil prices, a divided Fed on rate policy and other economic danger signs, he expects the stock market to be trapped in a range, and potentially rolling over. Scott Caraher, head of senior loans at Nuveen, says that the higher-for-longer interest rate environment has created "one of the most interesting and dynamic times" he has seen for senior loans in his 25-year career. Caraher, who manages Nuveen Floating Rate Income in both its closed-end and open-end forms, says that because senior loans don't face interest-rate risk, they are a powerful play in a market where Federal Reserve policy on rate direction is uncertain, noting that it's possible to create strong portfolios yielding about 7 percent, which he called "incredibly attractive ... on both an absolute and relative basis."
What if the tray is the reason your whitening results are inconsistent?Why would a dentist who owns a whitening lab — and holds four patents on making bleaching trays — tell you to skip the tray?Trayless whitening does not mean strips. It means the patient puts in a retractor and paints the gel directly onto the teeth, twice a day, for half an hour. No impression, no lab bill, no two-week wait, and no soft plastic reservoir quietly absorbing your peroxide.This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation with Dr Wyman Chanand Dr Elvis Law, recorded live in their central London whitening practice. Wyman has done nothing but whitening since 2002, has a PhD on the efficacy and safety of whitening processes, and — despite owning the lab that makes the trays — now does most of his cases without one. Elvis trained under him and reckons around 90% of his own cases are now trayless.Part 1 is the mechanism, the protocol and an honest list of who it doesn't suit. Part 2 takes it into the hard cases.Protrusive Dental Pearl: Let the Patient Pick the ShadeMost of us ask “how white do you want to go?”, get a laugh about Hollywood white or Simon Cowell white, then hold a B1 tab against the canine and call that the destination. Try flipping it.Under corrected light, record where the patient is now. Then hand over the whole shade guide, arranged by value, and let them choose the tab they want to reach.

You now know the target precisely instead of inferring it, and you can track progress against a fixed reference. Most patients land on B1 — it's the last shade before the bleach range, and it reads natural rather than veneered. Some will point at 0M1 and that's a different conversation, which is exactly the point.Because whatever they choose dictates how many weeks, how much gel and how many reviews the case needs — and therefore what it should cost. A single flat whitening fee assumes every case takes the same work. They don't. Someone starting at C4 who wants a bleach shade can get there, but it takes more gel, more time, more reviews and probably a protocol change along the way.

Shela Chan joins us to discuss her journey to faith and the research that now shapes her work at the intersection of queer theology, ethics, and social science.

What do you do when God feels far away? Psalm 13 is a song for those moments. In this message, we explore how naming our pain and shifting our perspective can help us move from lament to praise.Key topics covered:• The relationship between lament and praise: Why the "Book of Praises" is full of sorrow and how lament provides a place to stand while we grieve.• Challenging our categories: Understanding how we use bias to simplify the world and how to move past the "outgroup homogeneity effect" to see our neighbors more clearly.• Learning from diverse worldviews: Contrasting different cultural perspectives on suffering—moving from asking God to take suffering away to asking for the strength to endure it well.• Practicing the Examen: A practical 10-minute rhythm to notice God's presence in both desolation and consolation, helping us become agents of God's love in the world.Whether you are in a season of struggle or looking to deepen your trust in God, join us as we learn to bring our honest pain before a faithful God who is always at work. ★ Support this podcast ★
Bear Gokan Bonebakker, Osho – ZMM – 7/25/26 – Zazen practice of shikantaza, “just sitting” comes from the Chan practice of Silent Illumination. In solitude we find our way, in the support of the teachings and learning to allow our minds to settle and come to rest. How we can understand this practice requires knowing that it's open and available all the time. Gokan Osho reminds us that this path of liberation, of silent illumination, is never far away when we clarify it for ourselves.
Trouble in Zur Algud Ch. 1With the battle still underway, the group uses all they have in their various kits. The cleric begins to look hurt, but the fight is far from over. In retaliation towards Thorak, the cleric casts Harm on one half of the Slash Bros. Valen, trying to test his luck with his magical flask, drinks an Elven Ale called PolyPilsner, which polymorphs the monk into a canary. Chan summons a flame strike on the flesh effigy, and it does even more damage than expected; as a result, her flames that she's done so well to control and suppress thus far are now beginning to go wild. A giant sunbeam from the Mad Cleric takes out a good number of the team, rendering them unconscious. The team's own cleric, Thorak, helps Chantico back up with a Cure Wounds spell. As she comes to, she uses burning hands on the cleric of Hastur, finally putting an end to him. They don't have time to celebrate; they pick up their fallen allies and begin to make a fast exit. The blob makes an unsettling sound that brings back some "familiar" faces. The andrite in the mines begins to explode as the group attempts to flee and fight as they head out of the mines. Chan calls to the Daughters of Creation and Enya to aid in the safe exit of her friends and companions. Calling three scorching rays towards the monsters closing in on the group, which coalesces into a sphere surrounding the group as Enya attempts to teleport them out. It is successful, and in a flash they are outside the mines, and as they look behind them, they feel the immense explosion that erupts from the mines. After the smoke and dust settles, they realize that Chan is no longer with them.The party is embraced, arriving in Tradeshore as heroes, as Hanith Blackburn sent word of their heroic deeds. They are offered a reward to Zur Algud to celebrate the upcoming Festival of the Children, accommodations at the Ebon Wing Lodge, a 10g-a-day stipend, and access to the family's teleportation circles to travel to and from. We finish with the varying accounts of what the party did in the three weeks leading up to their travel for the festival. From one adventure to the next, they sharpen their skills, broaden their horizons, and prepare for a time of reprieve and revelry if it were only that simple.There's so much happening, and that's where we pick up…Find out what happens next in this episode of the Medusa's Cascade: Blood & BoozeTheme Music is written and performed by EfflorescenceTitle Card by Pierce Graphics Mixed by Thomas Lapierre IIICheck out the show at themedusascascade.com Hosted on Acast.

If you sat down with nothing but a Bible, would you ever actually come up with your current belief system? In this episode, Bryan reacts to a classic sermon clip from Francis Chan detailing his front-door encounter with LDS missionaries. But stick around for the twist at the end—because Francis doesn't just challenge LDS theology; he turns the mirror directly on modern evangelical church culture.--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

We dive into Chan's incredibly gracious, question-based approach to Mormon theology, compare "traditional" LDS doctrines (like eternal progression and the pre-existence) with modern LDS branding, and tackle a massive challenge that every evangelical Christian needs to hear.Key TakeawaysThe Power of Asking Questions: Why Francis Chan's gentle, curious approach to LDS missionaries is far more effective than getting "fired up" or preachy.The "Two Mormonisms": The difference between the front-page, Jesus-centric marketing of modern Mormonism and the actual, traditional doctrines of eternal progression and grandfather gods.A High View of Scripture: Why starting and ending with the Bible changes the entire conversation—and why we must encourage our LDS friends to read it without any external "filters."The Twist Challenge for Christians: If you only read the Bible from cover to cover, would you actually come up with the consumer-driven, mega-church programs we see today?

Hello Everyone! What does it mean to dance not just for yourself, but for an entire community?In this episode of A Dancer's Mindset, Isabella sits down with Chun Wai Chan — Principal Dancer at New York City Ballet and a true trailblazer. In 2022, Chan made history by becoming the first Chinese principal dancer in NYCB's 74-year history, and since then, his perspective on what it means to perform has evolved into something far greater than the stage itself. Together, they explore what a growth mindset really looks like in the world of dance — how you stay curious, keep evolving, and never stop reaching. Chun Wai opens up about finding genuine joy in movement, even through the gruelling demands of a career at ballet's highest level. And in one of the episode's most powerful moments, he reframes stage nerves entirely — because when you're this grounded in your purpose, the absence of anxiety isn't a weakness. It's a superpower.But what makes this conversation truly special is the bigger picture Chun Wai is holding. He has become a source of hope for young dancers of different cultures and ethnicity, who tell him that his career gave them the belief that their own dreams are possible. He's not just dancing — he's opening doors, shifting representation, and showing an entire generation of Asian and Chinese dancers what is possible at the very top of the art form. This is a conversation about ambition, identity, joy, and legacy. Whether you're a dancer, an artist, or anyone who has ever had to carve out a space where one didn't exist before — this episode is for you.
