Links: Karen's website: Happy Mandarin My website: imlearningmandarin.com -- Today's guest is Karen Cheuk, an inspiring educator behind Happy Mandarin, an organization that helps children learn Chinese in a fun and engaging environment. Karen was born and raised in Hong Kong and went on to study at Cambridge University on a scholarship. After graduating and having a daughter, she was inspired to create Happy Mandarin. She noticed that existing Chinese classes did not strike the right balance between fun and learning and often only catered to Chinese-speaking families, so she created Happy Mandarin to fill this gap. Karen is also a mother and juggles her work activities with raising a trilingual daughter. We had a wide-ranging chat about the importance of creating an immersive environment for children to learn a second or third language, encouraging parents to learn alongside their children and how to integrate the language into their daily lives.

Bike component maker Shimano has launched its new GRX Di2 groupset, which features 12-speed cassettes and semi-wireless shifting. On this episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast, Dave Lawrence and Nick Legan of Shimano talk about how the latest version of their gravel group came to be, its features and what still might lie ahead for GRX. Lawrence is a road and gravel product manager at Shimano and has been with the company for more than 30 years, overseeing the launch of numerous groupsets. Legan, a former WorldTour mechanic and current Shimano road and gravel brand manager, has been participating in gravel and chronicling its development since its early days. He not only provides context for GRX, but looks at the gravel scene as a whole.Topics the duo cover are why there's only a 2-by option of the groupset, the GRX's compatibility with Di2 road groups and the new feature called Front Shift Next. Also, is there ever tension within Shimano between innovation, possibly pushing technology and keeping things ultra reliable, a feature which the brand is known for?Canadian Cycling Magazine has something to say about the new gravel group, too. Recently, associate editor Andre Cheuk was at a Shimano media event for GRX in Carson City, Nev. He took the groupset on some serious rides, including Stetina's Paydirt gravel race. Cheuk, ever the gear geek, gets into the nitty-gritty details of how GRX performs on gravel, in sand and even after some stream crossings. You can read Cheuk's detailed look at the Shimano GRX Di2 on the Canadian Cycling Magazine website.This episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast is supported by MS Bike.

Marissa Lennox is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Cheuk Kwan of the Toronto Association for Democracy in China. Today: Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly delivered a speech today outlining Ottawa's new Indo-Pacific strategy. Ottawa will continue to maintain trade ties with China since the country is the second largest economy in the world, but as the speech outlined, the government is now seeking to diversify its trade relationships with countries in the region like India due to China's record on human rights, the reality that it ignores trade and investment rules and doesn't share the same values as Canada. Cheuk weighs in on the latest. ---- SHORTAGE OF ANTIBIOTICS AT PHARMACIES Marissa Lennox is now joined by Justin Bates, CEO of the Ontario Pharmacists Association. In the news: Ontario pharmacies are facing a supply shortage of antibiotics that is used to help treat kids with bacterial infections and the finger of blame is being pointed towards a rise in respiratory illnesses going around. Amoxicillin is one of the most common of the drugs facing a shortage. Justin reacts to the latest. Listen live, weekdays from noon to 1, on Zoomer Radio!

Hi everyone. I hope you are well. I've been feeling quite busy these past few days. Everything seems to be moving too fast. Maybe I'm just getting old. The first week of school felt intense and I'm already preparing for the following weeks. Anyway, for today, I have Sapira Cheuk, an ink painter and installation artist interested in ways of knowing through the body and how these modes of knowledge reflect or internalize external experiences. Sapira got her BA at UC Riverside and an MFA at Cal State Bernardino. She is currently teaching at UNLV, where she has found a welcoming art community in the Las Vegas area. I was connected to Sapira through the Rogers Art Loft and was glad to have learned about her practice. We also talk about Sapira moving to Hawaii from Hong Kong at a young age, Sapira hiding her art career from her parents early on, working in a collaborative project, and our unexpected connection with Zhuhai and the Shoshana Wayne Gallery. Hopefully, we will meet in Las Vegas. In the meantime, stay safe and healthy and I hope you enjoy this.Links Mentioned:Sapira's WebsiteSapira's InstagramDancing Together in a PandemicFollow Seeing Color:Seeing Color WebsiteSubscribe on Apple PodcastsFacebookTwitterInstagram

We don’t just coach behaviors, we coach the values, we coach the beliefs, the needs, the ways of being because that is truly what drives behaviors.” Increasing capacity and reducing dependency while meeting the coachee where they are. “Surround yourself with people who bring you light and inspire you”- PLN 3 Ps- paraphrasing, pausing, and posing evocative questions Use metaphors to make things come alive and can make complex things simple.

Today’s show is brought to you by the dozens of people who have decided to help pay for it through either a monthly contribution through Patreon or a subscription through Substack. Thank you for supporting community journalism and the launch of this new venture.* The Virginia Department of Health has launched a new dashboard to give the public a better glimpse into how the pandemic is affecting different parts of the state. The COVID-19 website now has daily updates for how each region of the state is doing, a weekly update on something called “transmission extent” and metrics offered by the federal Centers for Disease Control to guide decisions about school reopening. Dr. Laura Forlano is “The composite picture, or the description, or the picture that’s created when one considers all of this information together with local context is intended to help inform local and state decisions about how to respond to the pandemic,” said Dr. Laura Forlano, the Deputy Health Commissioner for Population Health. “For example, a high level of transmission necessitates increases in case investigation, or contact tracing, or more testing or more focused testing in certain populations.” Forlano said the data can also be used to help guide decisions for when more stringent limits might be placed on gatherings. For instance, UVA has now limited that number to five while in-person classes continue, and both Albemarle and Charlottesville have ordinances in placethat are more stringent than other parts of Virginia. Forlano said there were some ways the dashboard should not be used. “It should not be used to take one indicator alone to make a very complex decision,” Forlano said. “It should not be used to compare concretely with other localities in absence of more detailed information or local context.” One of the measures is Region Metrics. The Thomas Jefferson Health District is in the Northwest Region, where cases have been decreasing for 14 days and percent positivity has been declining for 23 days. However, the number of cases among health care workers has been increasing for nine days, with 5.9 percent of active cases.Weekly transmission extent is another measure and was last calculated on September 26. The Northwest Region is considered “at moderate community transmission.” That’s the middle category among five ranging from “At minimal” to “at substantial.”*The University of Virginia updated its COVID-19 tracker Monday afternoon, adding 81 new cases from the weekend. For Friday, they reported 41 new cases, the exact same amount reported on Thursday. For Saturday UVA reported 23 cases and 17 for Sunday. The number of quarantine rooms in use is at 30 percent and the number of isolation rooms at nine percent. The latter is for students and staff who tested positive. There are currently 240 active cases, 229 of which are students. The Virginia Department of Health today reported another 923 cases. The seven-day average for positive tests dropped to 4.6 percent, down from 5.5 percent a week ago. The Thomas Jefferson Health District reports another 24 cases, with nine from Albemarle and eleven from Charlottesville. *Some Charlottesville residents who request mail-in ballots from the registrar received materials that did not include the actual ballot. According to a press release, a clerical error lead to “a small number” of the 8,968 ballot requests being sent out prematurely.“Ballots were mailed in three batches,” reads the statement. “The second-half of the smallest third batch was inadvertently labeled “ready” before Envelope A, containing the ballot, was inserted. This issue has affected a small number of voters in Johnson, Buford, Venable and Alumni Hall precincts.” Those who did not receive the ballot are asked to call the registrar at 434-970-3250. So far, Charlottesville had 2,060 people vote in person as of close of business Monday. As of yesterday morning, Albemarle had 4,501 people vote in person and mailed out 18,356 ballots. “We’re getting a really good turnout at the county office building and we’re getting very good marks from the voters as to the way we are doing it, keeping it efficient and keeping it safe,” said Jim Heilman, secretary of the Albemarle Electoral Board. He gave an update last night to the Pantops Community Advisory Committee. “The first six days we had this, we average 766 people a day.” The deadline to apply to vote by mail is October 23. The last day to register to vote is October 13. *Charlottesville City Schools will not return to in-person instruction until at least November 9. Last week, news emerged about a scenario that had contemplated returning kindergarten through 3rd grade students to school in mid-October. However, school spokeswoman Beth Cheuk sent an email to families with an update. “The committee met again this week, and again, they discussed topics such as data, instructional models, timelines, and more -- but they did not generate any specific recommendations,” Cheuk said. She recommended people visit the committee’s website for up to date information. The School Board meets on October 1. Meanwhile, the Virginia Department of Education continues to leave decisions up to localities.“We remain committed in our recommendations that the decisions to alter K-12 programming including decisions about in-person instruction, school closures or hybrid learning be handled at the most local level possible,” said Holly Coy, assistant superintendent for policy, equity and communications.” *Today in meetings, the Charlottesville City Council will hold a six-hour work session on the city’s Strategic Plan, which is a policy document intended to guide city staff in their operations. This meeting was to have taken place two weeks ago, but was delayed following the resignation of City Manager Tarron Richardson. There will be two more six-hour work sessions in late October, but Charlottesville Mayor Nikuyah Walker said at the September 21 meeting that they may need to make further changes in the future. “Since we’re going through a leadership change, we may have to reconvene after the new city manager is hired and have this discussion as a team,” Walker said. The facilitator for the event is Selena Cozart of the Institute of Engagement and Negotiation at the University of Virginia. The meeting begins at 11 a.m. and runs until 5 p.m. (meeting info)The Albemarle Economic Development Authority meets at 4 p.m. It is the first meeting for one new member appointed following the resignations of three others this summer.On the agenda is a third update of a performance agreement between the EDA and the developer of the Woolen Mills as well as an update on the Albemarle Business Campus. The latter goes before the Albemarle Board of Supervisors on October 7. (meeting info) (Zoom link)*One correction, during yesterday’s story on the Thomas Jefferson Soil and Water Conservation District, some incorrect numbers were given. The actual number of acres in riparian buffers protected is 2,944 and the amount of stream bank restoration is 261. District Director Anne Coates said they will surpass 3,000 and 300 respectively in the near future. This is a public episode.
