An Over Coffee® special-edition podcast In March, 2020, futurist, author, XR consultant, educator and speaker Charlie Fink was researching his third book. The coronavirus pandemic had taken hold. Beyond the devastation of the virus itself, unpredictable changes were taking place, worldwide, in almost every aspect of life, work and education. At the time, we talked about some of these changes and where Charlie saw them going. Charlie cautioned that no one could predict what would happen with virtual technology amid 2020's unprecedented circumstances. Still, many of his March, 2020 projections proved almost uncannily accurate. Charlie, who teaches XR at Chapman College, writes a regular column for Forbes. In July, he published his new book, entitled Remote Collaboration & Virtual Conferences: The Future of Work. An exploration of current virtual resources for a changing workplace, the book covers topics including live streaming, virtual worlds and remote experts. During our 2020 conversation, we discussed the ways Charlie saw extended-reality technology and uses evolving, some of the resources he'd found most effective for work and education, and the trends he was seeing as the world navigated COVID-19. On this edition of Over Coffee®, we cover: What exactly is “XR”, anyway? Some of the trends Charlie saw, in the process of researching his third book; His 2020 projections for the ways he thought society, business and culture could change, due to the pandemic; How Charlie might advise anyone needing to learn new job skills; One parallel between the unprecedented circumstances of the pandemic and a "sea change" in the 1990s; One area in which the XR field has changed in the past year; A preview of Charlie’s new book!; Some of the platforms, in 3D and 2D, that he saw working well for education, work and collaboration; A look at the arts, and how the pandemic may affect artists’ use of the XR medium.
Episode SummaryChez Panisse has indelibly shaped California cuisine since its inception in 1971 and Lindsey and Charles Shere were there from the beginning, helping to change the landscape for female chefs. Influenced by the politics and art of Berkeley in the 1960s, Charles and Lindsey found their niche for unconventional thinkers and doers and they continue to live their life by following their hearts. Listen in for the era-spanning experiences of a chef and a composer, in this episode of The Sydcast.Syd Finkelstein Syd Finkelstein is the Steven Roth Professor of Management at the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College. He holds a Master's degree from the London School of Economics and a Ph.D. from Columbia University.

Her interest in the French language and in European culture led to further investigations into cuisine. She has traveled extensively throughout western Europe, especially in France and northern Italy: her mother's family was Alsatian; her father was born in the Italian Alps.Widely read, she counts among her major influences James Beard, Ada Boni, Robert Courtine, Curnonsky, Elizabeth David, M.F.K. Fisher, Richard Olney, and Waverly Root, as well as the chefs associated with her at Chez Panisse, especially Alice Waters.Her book, Chez Panisse Desserts, was published in 1985 and is still in print. She was named Pastry Chef of the Year by the James Beard Foundation in 1993. Among the chefs who have worked for her in the Chez Panisse pastry kitchen have been bakers Diane Dexter, Gayle Ortiz, and Steve Sullivan; pastry chefs David Lebovitz and Mary Jo Thoresen; and chefs Deborah Madison and Mark Peel. She is an active member of The Baker's Dozen and a major contributor to the Dozen's forthcoming book.Since her retirement she has returned with her husband to a rural life in Sonoma county, dividing her time among gardening, grandchildren, reading, and travel.Insights from this episode:Details on how Lindsey's passion for baking led to her becoming the Pastry Chef at Chez Panisse and a prestigious career that lasted twenty-six years.How Chez Panisse challenged the prevalent perception of the 1970s of women's roles as chefs and restaurant owners.Benefits to businesses and brand building when there is one owner for an extended period of time, like with Chez Panisse.Details on some of the experiences that Charles and Lindsey have shared, including why Charles walked from Geneva, Switzerland to Nice, France.Importance of living life as it comes and taking advantage of opportunities as they come to you.Quotes from the show:“I used to think the restaurant business was a really safe business to be in because people always had to eat but now I'm learning differently.” – Lindsey Shere“It is quite interesting to see how the center of gravity for political parties shifts over time.” – Syd Finkelstein“You can't cook a different menu everyday without learning a huge amount.” – Lindsey ShereOn Alice Waters: “One thing that Alice has continued to learn over these years, she doesn't stop and stay there; she's constantly moving.” – Lindsey Shere“The early success of the restaurant owes something to the fact that health and nutrition were very much in the news all that time.” – Charles ShereOn having a bucket list: “I don't think I believe in it and I don't think I have one. It seems unnecessarily disciplined.” – Charles Shere“If you lead a full and engaging life, your life is the bucket list.” – Syd Finkelstein“There's always something waiting out there to be discovered and enjoyed.” – Lindsey Shere“It seems very difficult to be a young person these days.” – Lindsey Shere“My method has always been to have as open a mind as possible and be as attentive and responsive to events as possible and to enjoy things for what they are.” – Charles ShereStay Connected: Syd FinkelsteinWebsite: http://thesydcast.comLinkedIn: Sydney FinkelsteinTwitter: @sydfinkelsteinFacebook: The SydcastInstagram: The Sydcast Charles and Lindsey Shere Website: shere.orgCharles' Blog: The Eastside ViewSubscribe to our podcast + download each episode on Stitcher, iTunes, and Spotify.This episode was produced and managed by Podcast Laundry (www.podcastlaundry.com)
Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career
Colonel Walter Watson USAF (Retired) was born in Columbia, South Carolina. He is the oldest of four children of the late Walter L. Watson, Sr. and Mildred Platt Watson. He attended public schools in Richland School District One and graduated from C. A. Johnson High School and Howard University in Washington, DC. At Howard, he earned a Mechanical Engineering degree and commission as an Air Force Officer via the ROTC program. Colonel Watson is the Senior Aerospace Science Instructor (SASI) of the C. A. Johnson Preparatory ROTC unit (SC-065). He entered the Air Force as an avionics maintenance officer. However, in 1973, he was selected for aviation training. This began a journey on a very diverse and distinguished flying career in the Air Force. He became a flight instructor, flight examiner, and flight commander in tactical fighter and strategic reconnaissance squadrons that flew F-4C/D/E, F-111D, and SR-71 aircraft. Colonel Watson’s distinctive and unique aviation accomplishment is that he was the first and only African American to qualify as a crew member in the SR-71, a super secret aircraft that set altitude and speed records that still stand today. The SR-71 routinely cruised at altitudes in excess of 80,000 feet at speeds over Mach 3 (2,100 mph). After his flying career, he continued to impact the Air Force in officer production and training. As Commander and Professor of Aerospace Studies at North Carolina A&T State University, his leadership helped his unit to achieve the following production milestones: 1) 20% of all African American Second Lieutenant pilots, 2) 50% of all African American Second Lieutenant navigators, and 3) 25% of African American female commissionees in 1993. These accomplishments led to assignments to a number of leadership positions at HQ Air Force Reserve Officers Training Corps (AFROTC at Maxwell AFB, AL). As the Chief of the AFROTC Scholarship branch, he supervised all scholarships for over 5,000 students across the nation with a budget exceeding $22 million annually. While at Maxwell AFB, Colonel Watson was a key decision-maker for Air Force relations with the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCO). He created scholarships aimed specially for HBCUs Science Instuctor (SASI). In 1999 Colonel Watson developed a student award program for the Tuskegee Airmen Inc. The Tuskegee Airmen Inc award recognizes superior student performance for AFJROTC cadets and impacts 744 AFJROTC unitsand 104,000 students aroung the globe. In 1998 Colonel Watson was selected Teacher of the Year for C. A. Johnson Preparatory Academy. Additionally he was twice designated by Headquarters Air Force JROTC as an Outstanding Instructor (1998-1999 and 2001-2002). The Columbia Housing Authority selected him for the Wall of Fame induction in April of 2003 because of his distinguished military service and sustained contributions to his community. In August 2003, the Tuskegee Airmen, Inc. awarded him their highest award, the Noel F. Parrish Award. This award recognizes outstanding endeavors to enhance access to knowledge, skills, and opportunities. In addition to his Howard University engineering degree, Colonel Watson holds a Masters degree from Chapman College of Orange, CA, in Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management. He is married to Joice P. Middleton Watson. They have a daughter, Major (Select) Alexandria R. Watson, son, Walter III, and a grandson, Isaiah S. Watson. Colonel Watson has received numerous awards, including the Meritorious Service Medal with two oak leaf clusters, Air Force Commendation Medal, Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal with two oak leaf clusters, Humanitarian Service Medal with one oak leaf cluster, and the Legion of Merit Medal.
