How do the best NRM experts deal with invasive and environmental weeds, without reaching for chemical herbicides as a first resort?By using Integrated Weed Management (IWM) strategies, of course. These include physical, cultural, biological, genetic, regulatory and finally chemical tools as a last resort.Kate Blood is Program Manager for weed management at the Victorian Department of Energy, Environment, and Climate Action (DEECA, formerly DELWP). She's the perfect person to explain how to actually get rid of weeds, rather than simply spending your whole budget on making a great initial result that will become undone within 12 months.Because, let's face it, sometimes weeds need more than a single effort to be removed. Once they've become established, they can take multiple approaches and years of effort.

Ready to start making tough and small decisions with less stress?Today we will review two formulas you can use with your child when having difficulties making decisions: The 22nd rule and six step formula. And that's what we're going to do right now. But first, I want to express how much I respect you for your commitment, and of yourself and your kid to improving yourself as hard as it sometimes can be.So while I love reading, listening, and speaking to the giants of the industry, in business, homeschooling, and other areas, what I continuously wonder, is how to make them actionable to me and my child. And our decisions affect everything around us, especially in turmoil.Those who mastered the art of decision-making have the ability on making those decisions that others don't do, meaning the difference between failure and success. So, you know, so the difference between fulfillment and a persuasive sense of emptiness.So if you don't have a system for making these decisions, you often procrastinate and avoid making them or making rash decisions that lead to a host of other problems.The key is to have a proven system a proven process to use when tough decisions crop up. So are you ready to make those small and complicated decisions quickly and with less stress? Let's jump right in to the 20 seconds but before I do, remember to check out the story weavers, if you're interested to have monthly projects you can use this skill in.Okay, so let's start working our decision-making muscles. Because ultimately decisions are like muscles, if you don't use them, they become weak.Most of us have, honestly and flappy decision-making muscle...So some people have a hard time deciding what do they want for dinner.So how are we going to strengthen this muscle is by giving them a workout, the way to make better decisions is to make more of them.So set a timer. Give yourself 20 seconds max to decide,because champions make fast decisionsYou have 20 seconds to....The second level of this is just as important how fast you make decisions, focusing on the state on how you make those decisions, you know, know that no matter decision, you will figure it out. It's this confidence is this calmness, when you make the decision that makes the difference. SSo if you would place a tablespoon of water in the palm of your hand, as long as your hand is relaxed, the water rests and sits there and you could control it. For example, pour it into a cup or move it around. But if you imagine the tension building up in your hand and your hand closes into fists, you lose the control as the water sports or leaks, you know from every Keith. So how you feel about your decision is like having water in your hand. Are you moving steadily along and is centered with confidence or are you teeth-gritting and discomfort.Use the 22second rule if you have small decisions like if you're sitting in a restaurant if you're deciding what to have for dinner, 20 seconds, go use this with your child as well as a rule.COMPLEX DECISIONSNow what about the complex, tough decisions when you know you have to decide what projects you do?So some of our kids inside our projects we have had this question of well, my kid can choose or it just goes with the first, you know, idea that the kid has and doesn't even you know, look at other options.So you lack the creativity you're on the other side you lack the actually getting into action mode and out of that brainstorming session brainstorming mode. What you do is you have four tough decisions you use these six steps, number One. And by the way, you might come to the result, even if you don't follow all of the six.So first you define the outcome, what are your results? Are you after? Why do you want to achieve it, you must be clear about your outcomes and the order of importance, so that you may be even can visualize it so that you have a specific field.When you go over this with your child, for example, with the project, what is the project about what is maybe a bigger vision that you were the kid has throughout the year, the theme that you could decide on first. Then you write down the choices.And remember, one option is no choice two options is a dilemma. Three options is actually when you have a choice. So which options do I have, and write down all of those options, including those that you dislike, or seem far-fetched?Or even maybe if you can't come up with any, then what you say is simply an option is to do nothing. So that's number two, first define the outcome, then write down the choices.Then assess possible consequences.So what are the ups and downs of each option? What do you gain? What do you cost? When you're clear about your goals and committed to your vision, then, you know, the direct consequences of those tough decisions are better than making no decision at all. So you'll be better after, you know, after you assess the rewards and the consequences of each of your options, and choose the best one more quickly. So you can for example, inside the project, well, how much time do we have to actually create the product? How much time would it take us? Is that realistic? Are we willing to put in that effort?Then, after you've done you, this is already a point where some options normally fall out, then you of course, evaluate your options after you now you've written them down.And by the way, why don't we write them down? Because Have you ever had it where you have loops in your head? That you continuously think about a question, you didn't make it, you didn't decide on something and then it comes back to you. And it just uses so much energy? The best thing is to write it down, look at it and then decide.So the next thing is you evaluate,you write down well, how important are those upsides and downturns? You're meeting those outcomes? What is the probability that you know the downsides will occur? And does it compare with the effort, the time the money that you put in? So with your child, evaluate all of the the possible consequences that you've written them?The fifth step is to mitigate the damage.How can I eliminate or reduce those downsides? The reasons these are tough decisions is usually because of what could happen if we make the wrong decision. And that's why you must review all the downsides. in more details. Brainstorm alternative ways to eliminate or reduce those downsides. Again, the more ideas you can come up with, no matter how far-fetched they may seem, the better prepared you'll be to face the potential consequences.And this part of the decision-making process is important because it allows you to be proactive about how to handle any fallout, and you can start to anticipate the future.And the last and final step, step number six, of course,is to decide now,after you written them, these six steps with your kid, no matter how stuck it is, decide now, because let's face it, in real life, we don't always have all of the resources all of the information we can't. Most of the times wait until we have those facts in order.Based on the most probable consequences, select the option that provides the greatest certainty that you will need your desired outcome or needs. This is your best option for right now. And because you've looked at some many other possibilities, you know that to be true. So this will help you beat procrastination when making tough decisions and avoid the deadliest decision of all inaction. So what would you decide? And if you would know the best option, which one would you choose? With these two formulas you have for each situation for small decisions, take the 22nd rule for big decisions, use the six-step formula and you will guide your kid to have the formula to make decisions no matter where they are.With that, see you next time guys, and if you're serious about it In a language arts program that goes beyond as you see with this, the normal grammar and spelling you know how it's always been done, then definitely check out thestory-weavers.comYou'll see it in my bio, because spots are coming in soon, and people are already coming towards and asking us a lot of questions about when they can join.

Houston, known for being the oil and gas capital of the US, is fast becoming a key centre of gravity for clean tech and energy transition IP. Syzygy is one of a number of early-stage disruptors calling the city their home, and we were fortunate to have Trevor Best, CEO, in conversation with Alex to talk about their photocatalysis technology and route to industrial scale.  Listen in to hear about the applications for their novel catalyst and reactor platform, including production of clean hydrogen at ambient temperatures plus co2 reuse and ammonia production. This is technology which has the potential to be highly cost effective at scale because it can avoid the need for high industrial heat in core processes.  We talk about their scale up journey to date, their fundraising (just under $40m to date) and the industrial applications in steel, chemical and many of the harder to abate sectors.  LinksTo learn about Syzygy the team: https://plasmonics.tech/To learn about our work at Decarb Connect: https://decarbconnect.comYou'll have the opportunity to meet with Trevor, and learn more about his teams work, at Decarb Connect North America, March 29-31 2022, in Houston:  https://decarbconnect.com/events/decarb-connect-north-america/ Decarb Connect focuses on the acceleration of industrial decarbonization around the globe.

What can Compliance learn from Sales? On the face of it, they're very different things: sales is about persuading customers to buy a service or product, whereas Compliance is about telling employees what to do or not do. Yet, perhaps surprisingly, there are lots of lessons for Compliance from the sales process.If we want to mitigate human risk, then we'll be more effective if we can borrow ideas from other disciplines that also involve influencing human decision-making.My guest on this episode, Taylor Edwards, works in sales for The Broadcat, a Compliance design company. When he joined the company earlier this year, Taylor needed to learn about Compliance because that's who the company's customers are. And in doing so, he discovered that while Sales and Compliance might seem like different disciplines, there is much that they have in common.You can find out more about Taylor on LinkedIn where he regularly shares insights:https://www.linkedin.com/in/tayloredwards90/For more on Broadcat, visit www.thebroadcat.comYou'll find them on social media:https://www.linkedin.com/company/broadcat/https://twitter.com/TheBroadcatDo listen to the previous episodes of the show featuring Ricardo Pellafone, the founder of Broadcat here:https://www.humanriskpodcast.com/ricardo-pellafone-on-why-compliance/https://www.humanriskpodcast.com/ricardo-pellafone-on-the-challenges/

Welcome home. And welcome back to The Music Museum. This exhibit is called The Vietnam War: The Music. Our mission here at the Music Museum is to support all Vietnam Veterans and those who serve the United States, then and now. We thank you for your service.This project started with a story I saw on TV in 2018, a story about a soldier, a 23-year-old Army helicopter sniper, who served in the Vietnam War. Before Christmas 1970, he received a Christmas card from a sixth-grader he didn't know. It had a simple message: "Thank you." He said it helped him get through the war. Over the years, he prized the letter and wondered what happened to the little girl who wrote it.That got me thinking about a letter that I received in 1968 from a soldier serving in Vietnam. I was a disc jockey in Manchester NH playing the hits every night. In July of that year, I got a letter from the soldier requesting that I play three songs dedicated to his girlfriend who was attending college in the area. I played the songs, and that was that. But I saved that letter for 50 years and in 2018, I started to wonder what had happened to that soldier. I tried to locate him, but, so far, I haven't made contact. The search however continues.Our goal with The Vietnam War: The Music is to honor the fallen and the survivors with the music that got them through “just one more day”. Our shows are broadcast around the world. They say thank you & “welcome home” to all Vietnam Vets. There is no opinion offered on that War. It's all about the music.As a tribute to your service and your sacrifice, this is The Vietnam War: The Music.This episode is called “From The Delta To The DMZ”Join the conversation:Join the conversation on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100008232395712or by email at dannymemorylane@gmail.comYou'll hear:1)     Delta Lady by Joe Cocker2)     Break On Through (To The Other Side) by The Doors3)     Letters From Home by The Cowboy Band4)     Welcome Home by Country Joe McDonald5)     Up Around the Bend by Creedence Clearwater Revival6)     Shop Around by The Miracles (w/ Smokey Robinson)7)     Wasted Days And Wasted Nights by Freddy Fender8)     Starman by David Bowie9)     For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield10) Till The Last Shot's Fired by Trace Adkins11) The Cisco Kid by War12) First Cav by Bill Ellis13) I Should Have Known Better by The Beatles14) Note To The Unknown Soldier by Five For Fighting15) Maggie May by Rod Stewart16) East Bound And Down by Jerry Reed17) Since You've Been Gone by Aretha Franklin18) Get Together by Jefferson Airplane19) Everybody by Tommy Roe20) We Gotta Get Out Of This Place by The Animals21) Like A Soldier by Johnny Cash22) Move Over by Janis Joplin23) Red House by The Jimi Hendrix Experience24) The Widowing Field by Jars of Clay25) Tennessee Whiskey by George Jones26) Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine by James Brown27) American Woman by The Guess Who28) Green, Green Grass Of Home by Porter Wagoner29) I Can't Explain by The Who30) Soul Sacrifice by Santana31) How I Got To Memphis by Bobby Bare32) The Last Time by The Rolling Stones33) Soldier's Last Letter by Merle Haggard & The Strangers34) Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival35) The Side of a Hill by Paul Simon36) Sgt.

This exhibit is called The Vietnam War: The Music. Our mission here at the Music Museum is to support all Vietnam Veterans and those who serve the United States, then and now. We thank you for your service.Early-on, in Vietnam, soldiers turned to music as a lifeline to the home front they promised to defend. Rock & Roll was a big part of a soldier's down time that centered around the hooches and outposts of Vietnam. The music that was popular during the Vietnam War was, and is still, therapy. There are songs you can remember, and then there are songs you REALLY remember. Many of these songs will have a special meaning for you.
