Regarded as the most important and influential musician on the Irish jazz scene, saxophonist/flutist and composer Michael Buckley has been playing professionally since the age of six when critics hailed him as a child prodigy. Born in Dublin city in 1971 Michael first came to prominence on an International level when, aged 10, he played flute with the legendary saxophonist George Coleman in the National Concert Hall. Though largely self-taught, his obvious talent has been developed by his father Dick Buckley, and such legends as Milt Hinton. Buckley has found his unique voice playing both saxophone and flute. Buckley has been collaborating with the World Jazz Orchestra, where Michael represented Ireland, the Edinburgh Jazz Festival Orchestra (led by Tim Hagans), and small group tours and concerts with Dave Liebman, John Abercrombie, Joey Baron, Jason Rebello, Nils Wolgram, Tom Rainey, and Chander Sardjoe, to name but a few. Now in his early 40s, Buckley is rapidly becoming the most important producer of his generation. With countless albums ranging from jazz to traditional to hip-hop, Michael is making a name for himself internationally as a producer and engineer. Buckley has also performed and toured in recent years with The Mingus Big Band, Jason Moran, Kurt Rosenwinkle, Edward Simon, Pete King, Badal Roy, Kenny Wheeler, Lee Konitz, Grant Stewart, Ingrid Jensen, Guy Barker, Greg Burk, Damon Brown, Kevin Dean, Florian Ross, soloist with the BBC big band, Albert Sanz, and Gerard Presencer among others. As well as frequent radio spots, Michael has made numerous television appearances, regularly works on film and television scores, and recently collaborated on recordings with Donovan, the Cranberries, The Coors, Jerry Lee Louis, and Johnny Mattis.

It's important to note that Gender binary stereotypes have an impact on all of us. My new friend Damon Brown is a cis-gender heterosexual male that took on the role of primary caretaker after his wife went back to work. Damon's work and his life exemplify a real shift in consciousness that I am really committed to talk more about. Our conversation weaves in and out of parenting and what it is to be a "man" in the world or to be "classically trained male" and the profound difference in the experience of black men vs. white men. Damon and I could have talked all day, I'm so happy to introduce you to him and to his work. Introducing Damon Brown.

These weekly stories are about gender reveal. I hope that you will soak up the stories of our guests and share them with an intention to educate others and love the differences.

Mesa, AZ - KISS PR Press Release - KISS PR Mountain Vista Medical Center and Tempe St. Lukes Now Offer the Most Modern Brain Activity Detection Technology to DateSteward Health Care is the first hospital system in Arizona to use Zeto EEG technology – the first true dry electrode EEG system cleared for clinical use by the FDA. Both Mountain Vista Medical Center and Tempe St. Lukes now offer Zeto EEG headsets for routine EEG, one of the main diagnostic tests for epilepsy and other brain disorders. A zero-prep, easy to wear headset with no-residue electrodes, the Zeto EEG technology is backed by a cloud platform that offers live viewing, video, auxiliary inputs, and tools for analysis. The headset and software platform allows Steward's trained healthcare professionals to administer routine and urgent EEGs at a moment's notice, enhancing our commitment to providing the highest-quality care and most up-to-date technology for our patients. “We are excited to be the first hospital system in Arizona to be able to provide the newest technology in bedside EEG recording for patients,” said Damon Brown, Arizona President of Steward Health Care. “The Zeto system offers the best patient experience for EEG tests with no more application of electrodes to the skin with gel or tethering of the patient to a box with wires.” Traditional EEG systems are often inconvenient for patients due to the need to measure the patient's head, mark the location of the electrodes, resurface the skin, apply a conductive paste, and glue the electrodes. The Zeto EEG headset improves patient comfort by reducing preparation time. Dry electrodes are cleaner, more convenient, quicker to install and quicker to remove. "Our company is delighted that Zeto EEG headsets are available to patients in Arizona at Mountain Vista Medical Center and Tempe St. Lukes, Steward Health Care hospitals,” said Florian Strelzyk, Chief Sales Officer of Zeto, Inc. “The increasing shortage of EEG technologists is making EEG monitoring unavailable in several hospitals and clinics around the US. The Zeto headset and software platform offers quick, comfortable, medical-grade EEG monitoring. With no paste needed, setup time under 5 minutes and minimal clean-up, a trained healthcare professional can now administer this important test at a moment's notice. The data is available live with video via a HIPAA compliant cloud backed by our rich and intuitive report generation feature. We are committed to serving Steward Health Care hospitals, and help their patients, physicians and staff realize the benefits of using Zeto EEG for the long term.” About Steward Health Care SystemNearly a decade ago, Steward Health Care System emerged as a different kind of health care company designed to usher in a new era of wellness. One that provides our patients better, more proactive care at a sustainable cost, our providers unrivaled coordination of care, and our communities greater prosperity and stability. As the country's largest physician-led, tax paying, integrated health care system, our doctors can be certain that we share their interests and those of their patients. Together we are on a mission to revolutionize the way health care is delivered - creating healthier lives, thriving communities and a better world. Steward is among the nation's largest and most successful accountable care organizations (ACO), with more than 5,500 providers and 43,000 health care professionals who care for 12.3 million patients a year through a closely integrated network of hospitals, multispecialty medical groups, urgent care center

Música de la serie "Modern Love" por Gary Clark… ¿Gary Clark?  ¿El guitarrista tejano que sigue la estela de Stevie Ray Vaughan?. No. El líder del grupo escocés Danny Wilson que a finales de los ochenta triunfó con la canción “Mary’s Prayer”. Lo intentó en solitario con diez canciones cortas sobre el amor. Luego se transformó en un cuarteto llamado King L, un proyecto más rockero a la "americana" que pasó tan inadvertido como el siguiente, Transister, una aproximación a los nuevos sonidos electrónicos donde se unía a las “hermanas” a la voz cantante de Damon Brown y al teclista Paul Taylor.

This week on MomWrites we welcome Crystal Duffy, author of the recent release "Twin to Twin: From High Risk Pregnancy to Happy Family". Twin to Twin covers her high risk pregnancy with her twin girls. Crystal tells us all about her harrowing journey through her pregnancy with blood clots, twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, in-utero surgery, mono-mono twin risks, and her ultimate rise to author and patient advocate. Crystal feels her personal story has fueled her patient advocacy work, because no one knows you or your children's health better than you.Twin to Twin: From High Risk Pregnancy to Happy Family was written while Crystal was raising preemie twins AND a toddler!"I think I deserve a Pulitzer prize for having written a book with preemies that needed ongoing medical treatments as well as raising a toddler we were trying to potty train." - Crystal Duffy. WE TOTALLY AGREE, CRYSTAL!She soon realized that if she wanted to write this book, she had to let go of multiple things - laundry, clutter, household stuff - which was all still going to be there after the book was finished. She maximized her time while the kids were sleeping and used weekends and late nights while writing. There were sacrifices, but Crystal says she felt amazing and proud she felt when the first shipment of her books arrived, and how happy and excited her kids were as well. The process of writing books is pretty removed from any physical product for most kids, but seeing the books in print really helped them understand what Crystal had accomplished.Crystal is an Author Accelerator client and has listened to the #amwriting podcast with Jess and KJ, our co-podcasting nonfiction gurus. She went through the Blueprint program for her second book, and she's well into the process of writing book #2 with her coach. She assures Abby (and Mel) that writing a book IS (mostly!) easier the second time around! There are challenges from jumping genres from memoir to nonfiction and the process of weaving patient stories into research, but there are things you can do to make it easier.1) Check in with yourself, and compile all your notes in one spot on a regular basis.2) Outlining can be super useful for non-fiction. You still have to weave a tale, it's just with facts!3) Writing your jacket cover, synopsis, and pitch beforehand can help you narrow your focus from an idea to a plan.This final tip Crystal recommends to us from Damon Brown’s book Bring Your Worth (coming out in February – www.damonbrown.net and www.bringyourworth.com – try to focus on completing 3 work-related things per day. Whether that’s an important email, several pages on your book, or other important tasks, anything beyond that is a blessing because inevitably, several other things will come up that will need your attention.Thanks for coming on the podcast, Crystal!

Damon Brown is a journalist, author, entrepreneur, and primary caregiver for his two young sons, ages 6 and 9. But from his earliest days of parenting, people assumed he was simply “helping” his wife. “I'd put on the Baby Bjorn and walk to the grocery story and hear ‘Oh, is it Daddy day?' or ‘Are you taking over for Mom while she's resting?'” Damon says. “And there's a whole ‘nother layer to to it being African-American.” (Including backhanded compliments about “sticking around” to raise his children.)Modeling Emotional HonestyDamon describes himself as an emotionally honest person; he'll tell you when he's overwhelmed, upset, or happy. As a dad, he now realizes that emotional honesty is “one of the biggest gifts that I'm giving my boys.” Simultaneously, he reminds us that we must learn to accept emotional honesty from males.How a Tech-Savvy Dad (who wrote for Playboy) Talks about Screen Time & SexDamon brings some advantages to parenting boys: Unlike many modern parents, he's tech- and culture-savvy. In 2008, he wrote Porn & Pong: How Grand Theft Auto, Tomb Raider, & Other Sexy Games Changed Our Culture, a book that examined the impact of video games and porn on popular culture. He even co-founded an intimacy app, Cuddlr (way back in 2014!).Damon says he's handling his sons' exposure to technology “very carefully.” He knows, from personal experience, that simply setting borders and boundaries isn't effective. “It's not just a matter of saying, ‘don't do this,'” Damon says. “It's more, ‘If you're going to tread in these territories, these are the mile makers and this is the compass.'”He talks to his boys about intimacy and boundaries — not only “this is what a boundary is” and “respect the boundaries of other people,” but also “respect the boundaries of yourself.” Boys too rarely hear that last part; they need to know that it's okay to not want sexual or intimate contact (and that they have the right and responsibility to say no. Too often, people who are raising boys forget to emphasize that point.Helping Boys Understand IndependenceBoys (and men) today still feel a lot of pressure to be independent. At age 9, Damon's oldest son has already unconsciously internalized the idea that guys should be self-reliant — so when he got stuck on his homework, he simply stopped doing it.Damon corrected his son's mis-interpretation of indepence. “Independence,” he told the boy, “is getting the support you need to create the life that you want.”In the moment, the child was unimpressed. But Damon knows his son will eventually need to ask for help, so he's talking about independence and help-seeking now. Raising boys is a long game.In this episode, Jen, Janet, & Damon discuss:How our family experiences affect our parentingCultural & societal expectations of dadsEmotional honestyGenerational growthScreentime, technology, & intimacyTeaching boys about boundaries, consent, intimacy, & independenceLinks we mentioned (or should have) in this episode:damonbrown.net — Damon's websitePorn & Pong: How Grand Theft Auto, Tomb Raider, & Other Sexy Games Changed Our Culture, by Damon BrownDads Need Therapy; Black Dads Aren't Getting It — Yahoo article by DamonWhy You Should Strive for Good Enough — one of Damon's TED talks#BringYourWorth — Damon's YouTube TV showSponsor Spotlight: Green ChefHealthy, Organic, Meal Kit Delivery Service.
