Saturday is the first Seahawks game day of the preseason and they're facing off in Las Vegas against the Raiders. Pete Carroll spoke to the media and named two young players in particular that he's going to be watching with extra interest. In injury news, tight end Colby Parkinson re-injured his foot and is going to miss extended time. Fortunately, a couple players are going to be back in action next week that we'd like to see hit the field during the preseason. Finally, an apology to Field Gulls listeners for something that happened on Friday.

Closely followed on-chain analyst Willy Woo is laying out a price path for Bitcoin this cycle. In a new episode of What Bitcoin Did Pod with Peter McCormack, Woo names a few key levels that can trigger a continuation of the BTC bull market. According to the analyst, Bitcoin's on-chain fundamentals currently give BTC a fair value somewhere between $50,000 and $60,000. Woo also highlights a key price level that he thinks Bitcoin must reclaim to ignite bullish momentum. Woo's price prediction for BTC placed it at $162K. Going as far as saying that a $200,000 price mark is still possible for the digital asset this year. This puts Bitcoin on a tremendous run path to get to such a high prediction.

Quantum Nurse www.quantumnurse.life presents Freedom International Livestream On Saturday June 19, 2021 12 11:00 AM Guest: Dr. Madhava Setty, MD www.madhavasettymd.com On the topic: WOKE Bio: Author, Physician, Engineer Book: Woke: An Anesthesiologist View https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/woke-an-anesthesiologists-v “I am an only child of parents that immigrated to the United States from South India in 1965. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering from M.I.T. (‘88) and worked in the Aerospace and Defense Industries for six years. In the spring of 1992 I participated in a research expedition to the polar ice cap funded by the Office of Naval Research. That experience at the “top of the world” completely changed my life. I was no longer willing to participate in any effort that wasn't directed to the alleviation of suffering on this planet. I received my medical education at Baylor College of Medicine (‘98) and training in Anesthesiology at The University of Pennsylvania (‘02). I became a Diplomate of the American Board of Anesthesiology in 2003 and have been in clinical practice since 2002. Closely observing thousands of patients under Anesthesia led me to ask fundamental questions around ideas that have gone unchallenged for a very long time: What does it mean to be awake? Does awareness require a functioning body or does it arise of its own? I was astounded to realize that our understanding of who we are as conscious beings is based on assumptions that can easily be overturned if we are willing to examine them openly. It turns out that unchallenged assumptions underpin our understanding of much of the world outside of the Operating Room as well.

Marianne Hem Eriksen (Associate Professor, School of Archaeology and Ancient History, University of Leicester) speaks with Michèle Hayeur Smith (Research Associate, Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology, Brown University) about Smith's recent book, The Valkyries’ Loom: The Archaeology of Cloth Production and Female Power in the North Atlantic (University Press of Florida, 2020). Textile production across the north Atlantic rested in the hands of women for centuries. Even the Valkyries participated, although those mythical Norse maidens who collect dead warriors on the battlefield, have been depicted in Njál's Saga, in the poem, The Darraðarljóð --weaving “men’s fates” on a ‘broad loom of Slaughter’. Closely tied with women’s magic and reproductive powers, cloth served as a ‘second skin’ of protection and cultural distinction. The work of spinning yarn and weaving cloth acquired symbolic associations with creation and destruction long ignored by researchers. In this ambitious analysis, Hayeur Smith unites literary, historical, and archaeological sources to investigate both the meaning and the material remains of cloth production across the Norse settlements of the North Atlantic from Scotland to Greenland. She examines the archaeological remains of textiles and weaving technologies, finding evidence that women’s work intersected with family roles, social hierarchies, religious ideals, colonialism, domestic economies and export trade. Incorporating a wide range of methodologies, Hayeur Smith persuasively argues that textiles reveal the remarkable ethnic and technological diversity that characterized communities across the North Atlantic, while changes in production register climate change and social transformation. Women produced vaðmál, cloth currency that provided the foundation of Iceland’s economy from the early medieval era through the seventeenth century.

“From what we know, the earliest form of true writing was that invented in Mesopotamia in the late fourth millennium BC. Closely followed by Egypt, not long after. It’s probably only a matter of a couple of hundred years, if that. But Mesopotamia seems to have it by a nose.” Mesopotamia, the fertile land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, was home to some of the world’s first cities. Beginning around 3400 BC, people came together in this region to build elaborately decorated buildings, form complex trade relationships, create great works of art and literature, and develop new scientific knowledge. Central to these many advancements was written language, which emerged earlier in Mesopotamia than anywhere else in the world. An exhibition at the Getty Villa, composed largely of objects on loan from the Louvre, explores the history of these first urban societies through their art and writings. In this episode, Timothy Potts, Maria Hummer-Tuttle and Robert Tuttle Director of the Getty Museum and curator of the Villa exhibition Mesopotamia: Civilization Begins, discusses the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia.

Episode Summary: In John 10:10 Jesus taught his followers that he had come that they might have life and have it abundantly(vs 10). Later in John 15, he explained HOW IT IS that Jesus imparts that spiritual life to us. He said, I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever ABIDES in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. Spiritual flourishing results from ABIDING in Christ. That is not a word we use much today. This episode explains what this Greek word means and identifies four obstacles to experiencing this connectedness to Christ that causes us to be fruitful.For Further Prayerful Thought:What has most helped you know that when you to turn towards God after giving in to sin, God is like the father of the prodigal, running to you with open arms?What has helped you the most to see God’s moral loss as the pathway to blessing, instead of a restriction to your fulfillment?What is the toughest part about knowing in your head that God intends suffering for our ultimate good and still feeling totally loved by God when we hurt?How can you do a better job of managing your use of time so that your personal walk with God get’s the firstfruits and not the leftovers? Current Series: Igniting Fire for Our Mission In a Disheartening WorldReigniting Fire for Our Mission From Christ  S2 Episode #27 May 9 2021 For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men’s issues click here

This week on the podcast, Dan Neumann is joined by frequent guest of the show, Quincy Jordan, a Director in AgileThought’s Innovate Line of Service.   The last time Quincy was on the show, they spoke about the excursions you take along an Agile journey and what those look like. Today, they’re taking this discussion one step further and exploring how to maintain the work that has been done along an Agile journey.   On the “other side” of an Agile transformation, we want the work that we have done to stick. In this episode, Quincy shares his key tips for maintaining an Agile transformation once it has gotten to a place of sustainability, how to shift from a transformation team to an environment that has Agile Champions, why you should be implementing Communities of Practice, and the role that leaders play in communicating and instilling the practices formed during the transformation.   Key Takeaways What are transformation teams and how do they fit into maintaining the Agile transformation? A transformation team is critical to the health of an Agile transformation Transformation teams are almost like Scrum Masters to the transformation itself Once the thinking has changed and you’ve arrived at the part of the Agile journey where you’re only looking to maintain what you’ve achieved, you don’t necessarily need the transformation team When disbanding the team it is important to have Agile Champions to lead and guide the Communities of Practice (which are key in maintaining the way of thinking around continuously learning [and unlearning] based on the current needs and problems you are looking to solve) Members of the transformation team can join the team of Agile Champions or become Agile Champions for other teams of practices Be cautious in disbanding the transformation team too soon as you may revert to the old way of doing things Have a succession plan for your Agile Champions to maintain the new way of thinking Quincy recommends 3‒4 Agile Champions for a single Community of Practice The role communication plays in Agile transformation maintenance and continuous learning: Communication is beyond critical to maintaining the transformation — especially coming from leadership (Quincy recommends no more than monthly communication from leadership) An important aspect that leadership has to remember is that everyone does not know what they know (gaps in communication occur when leadership assumes that everyone knows what they know) It’s important for the leadership team to reinforce the new way of working and what it needs to look like Reinforce desired behavior by highlighting “bright spots” (i.e. when you see the behavior you want, point it out) Trust and build empathy (when trust is absent, the “ugly truth” of what’s happening in a project gets buried vs. when trust and empathy are present, the whole team works together toward solving the problems that arise) Maintain and bring transparency into the work How to reinforce the ways you deliver and maintain a value-driven perspective: Ideally in the transformation, the organization has adopted a value-driven perspective vs. merely tracking To maintain this, have dedicated teams Shift the mindset of having one specialist for one job to one of building an overall team competence Implement rolling forecasts with quarterly revisiting Maintain the perspective of funding so that you don’t revert to this notion of going to go down to a granular level (i.e. figuring out how much a particular thing is going to cost 12-months down the line between a 2‒5% margin) You want to maintain a way to fund investments and evaluate that funding earlier on (and on a quarterly basis) It is good practice to leverage OKRs to maintain a transformation (because you’re being clear in a simplistic way on what your objectives are and how you’re going to hit them) Closely align your portfolio based on your current dedicated teams and any planned dedicated teams   Mentioned in this Episode: Agile Coaches’ Corner Ep. 129: “Excursions Along the Agile Journey with Quincy Jordan” Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard, by Chip Heath and Dan Heath    Want to Learn More or Get in Touch?

Closely adapted from the classic manga series, Lone Wolf And Cub: Sword of Vengeance is the first of a film series that ran for six installments between 1972 and 1974. It stars Tomisaburo Wakayama as Ogami Itto, a disgraced former executioner to the shogun. He is forced to travel the Japanese countryside with his young son in a heavily-armed baby carriage. Together, the two take on dirty jobs in the hopes of one day exacting vengeance against the wicked clan who framed Itto for the crimes that caused his fall from grace. Ryan is joined by Rachel for this deconstruction of this foundational chambara film. Discussion points include the film's episodic narrative structure, the movie's juxtaposition of quiet moments with blood-gushing violence, the repressed soulfulness hiding behind Itto's stoicism, and Lone Wolf And Cub's influence upon products like Usagi Yojimbo, Sin City, Road To Perdition, and The Mandalorian. Ryan and Rachel also have a discussion about this movie's frank (and arguably cavalier) approach to its depictions of sexual assault. So, if that isn't something you feel comfortable listening to, maybe skip this episode. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/ryan-valentine3/support

The realm of personal development has a few different worlds in it. One of those is the idea of just being better ‘ #liveyourbestlife - which tends to focus on just following your dreams and passions and being positive all the time. Unfortunately, for many of us, this sets unrealistically high expectations and ultimately encourages by-passing of shit we actually need to learn, sit in, process, and move through. As a result, we often spin in feeling like a failure, beating ourselves up and trying hard to be overly positive despite shit potentially going as well as am arm being chopped off.   Closely related to this world is the idea - heavily favoured by men - of simply focusing on the strategy to move past what is frustrating us, the strategy to create new results and outcomes. The challenge and weakness with this are immense but often subtle; if we only focus on moving forward without understanding and being able to overcome what led to us being in the place we want to move beyond, we will tend to have short bursts of success until the underlying issues inevitably resurface. Enter - YOUR SHIT. This is what is happening in both of these situations; we’re trying to ignore and avoid our shit. Doing that only emboldens in to have a more insidious and frustrating hold over our lives. Shit unaddressed and unmanaged will pull the strings. That is primarily a lot of my work with me; making sense of their shit, changing the relationship to it, owning it, moving past it, and overcoming it so that we get out from under its thumb and replace our thumb on its head. That’s what this episode is about - why you struggle to get your shit together even though you really want to.   In this Episode: In this episode, we explore some of the reasons why we - especially as men - struggle to get out shit together even though we know how it’s playing out, we know what we want and what we need to do. We’ll explore some of the ideas that see us stubbornly stick our head in the sand with our shit, hoping it will just magically disappear and life can be grand. We also explore some key foundations for how you can actually and finally get your shit together.   Where this brings us to is this - I have launched a brand new course for exactly this: GYST 101 - Get Your Shit Together - a 3 week accelerator course in life and shit for men who want to make their shit make sense, stop sabotaging themselves, and finally step into their potential. This is a punchy 2 weeks - not only, but long enough with concerted application to make a DENT in your shit ad in your life. It would be easy for me to create a course of 6 weeks, or longer - to really do longer-term work on your shit, but here’s the kicker - for most men our shit is the thing stopping us from working on our shit. The more barriers to starting the less likely we are to starting. So, GYST is 3 weeks - a 21 day push to make a monumental difference in your life. You can apply yourself for three weeks, right? It starts day one on May 13th.  Spots are open NOW - and we have an initial availability of 100 places for men finally ready to stop feeling like they need to get their shit together, fed up with struggling to get their shit together, men finally ready to stop hearing from the people in their lives “you need to get your shit together” and actually DO IT.

General Social Media Strategies That Work  Drunk On Social, The Symposium. Co-Host, Tristan Ahumada and Jeff Pfitzer go deep into general social media strategies for growing a social media audience. Jeff and Tristan also take the time to share the actual successful strategies they use daily to grow their social media audience which ultimately helped build their brands and grow their business.  Episode Highlights:  We are going deep on these 10 platforms: FB, IG, TikTok, Pinterest, Twitter, Linkedin, SnapChat, Club House, YouTube and Reddit.  Today’s episode will focus on general social media strategies.  It’s about connecting with people on a deeper level and then showing them what you do for a living.  We are going to share simple principles about how to stay hip to what is happening and/or improve your social media presence.  Identify what your message is to the people you want to target.  You are the Brand.  Early adopters don’t know if it will work but they go all in so they can learn something from the process and apply it to other social media platforms.  This is Tristan’s strategy for his social media, personal brand and business: STAY = Sell, Teach, Advise and You.  Go all in on 1 social media platform first, before trying to use multiple platforms. Use what you love and attract as many people as you can.  The purple dress and glasses mindset.  Be yourself and don’t worry about what people think.  Jeff’s strategy is to do 4-5 feed post every single week and at least 5-7 stories per day.  With everything that happens over the course of your day, you need to answer the ?, Is this shareable?  Closely follow 5-10 people who inspire or entertain you and then take bits and pieces from them to grow your brand.  We are going to bring in experts and go deep on every single platform. We will keep you aware of what is next with each platform so you can identify how best to use it.

In this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston outlines the incredible power that language has over our thoughts and perceptions. Brian had studied Comparative Linguistics at Sonoma State University and explains a language phenomenon that many of us don’t often think about.  Just as we are unable to comprehend a completely foreign language, there is the related inability to think about or understand ideas for which we have no words. This principle also extends to deeper implications - that the meaning of words themselves can be changed simply by their usage in society. Those who control the tools of communication - major media and academic circles, are given great control over the use of language. They often create new rules and usages.   George Orwell eloquently illustrated the phenomenon in his book 1984. He had written an epilogue explaining how language is used to control the populace in collectivist-socialist cultures. Orwell’s epilogue is widely available and very recommended. It is entitled, “The Principles of Newspeak”.  Newspeak is the method by which ‘Ingsoc’, ideas of the new English socialism, would be imparted and reinforced. It resulted in the inability to think of individual freedom or previous forms of government. The meanings attached to those concepts would simply be lost. Brian further comments on the details of this phenomenon as illustrated in Comparative Linguistics.      The language principle is known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. Brian had studied the comparative dialects of the Pomo Indian Tribe of Sonoma, Lake, and Mendocino Counties. Many years earlier, Edvard Sapir had studied the languages of the Aleut and Inuit tribes (formally called Eskimos). Benjamin Lee Whorf studied the Hopi Indian dialects. Each made observations regarding vocabulary (Sapir) and verb tense (Whorf). They concurred that the different aspects of language directly impacted how the language-user viewed the world around them. Brian explains how the right to life, abortion and euthanasia debates are directly impacted and even determined, by the language that is used. Obviously, abortion advocates have intentionally changed the vocabulary (choice - a concept - is used to replace the specific action of dismemberment and disposal of the human child). And this is but one example. But in a larger sense, the use of the language and the presumptions that language carries, have also quietly induced pro-life individuals to engage in the debate of ideas, but only using the premises that our current culture has made popular. Many pro-lifers feel a deep need to debate the relative merits and arguments of the Roe v. Wade decision.  But as Brian, pro-life judges, and even pro-abortion judges, have pointed out, Roe versus Wade is completely illogical in its premises, in its pattern of logic, and in its conclusions.  Again, even Justice Ginsburg, the most-radical pro-abortion Supreme Court Justice has declared that Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, have not granted women a right to choose or the right to do what they wish with their bodies. Justice Blackmun was explicit that Roe does not create an unlimited right to an abortion. Yet abortion for ‘choice’ is still considered its result.  Brian‘s point is that it is the companion decision, Doe versus Bolton, which explicitly sets aside the rambling confusion regarding pregnancy and culture and history (the actual content of Roe). It is Doe versus Bolton that explicitly allows doctors to kill, based solely on their own personal opinion, and without any further accountability.  Doe is the enactment ‘provision’ of Roe v. Wade. And by making the physician (not the woman) the designated agent and ultimate decision maker, it has brought a direct attack against the very premise of the culture in which we live, Western Civilization.  Western Civilization holds the premise that human beings are more than merely animals.  One profession was dedicated to always caring for and protecting the unique and vulnerable human person - the medical profession.  Throughout Western Civilization doctors have always sworn to never harm or kill.   It is in Doe v.  Bolton that the medical profession is explicitly empowered to kill and directed to do so at their own discretion.  Western Civilization a victim in the Roe and Doe companion decisions - they have done even more than simply authorize the killing of innocent babies. An unrestrained killing profession has now become an accepted part of our society. But language has prevented many from seeing or even thinking about what that means.
