A slow-moving tropical depression in early October 1970 centered on October 7, resulted in rainfall over multiple days across Puerto Rico and set the stage for the devastating floods. The focus of the rainfall core shifted from day to day, but some areas experienced copious amounts of rainfall on consecutive days, causing rainfall amounts that could be measured in feet. The highest total over those 6 days was 38.42 inches at Jayuya and 41.68 inches at a station nearby.. Flooding was widespread during the period. One of the hardest hit areas was the densely populated San Juan area. There were reports of bridge washouts, stranded vehicles, flooded homes, electrical outages and road closings due to both flood inundations and landslides. The volume of runoff was a record for Puerto Rico since there were numerous peaks at various times during the flood duration. With the small basin sizes and the typical rains that occur across the region, rivers usually flood within 6 to 12 hours of the heaviest rain. These floods lasted days, creating unique challenges for the affected communities. There were 18 confirmed fatalities, 34 people missing, $65 million (equivalent to more than ½ billion 2021 dollars worth of damage, 10,000 were left homeless, 600 houses destroyed and another 1,000 damaged. The damage to agriculture alone was approximately $8 million with $12 million tallied for road and bridge damage. President Nixon declared the territory a disaster area; the worst in Puerto Rico's history. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Welcome back to Lead thru valuesI am your host, James MayhewBefore we begin I just want to mention an ongoing leadership accelerator program I run called XLR8. I designed XLR8 to give new and emerging leaders — even veteran leaders — the tools and training on the essentials they'll need to lead their teams and companies effectively. XLR8 is a live, virtual training program. It's 8 weeks of intense, high-impact training delivered through Zoom.There are 6 modules from human communication & behavior through feedback and accountability and more. I saw the need for a program like XLR8 because as I'm working with my clients, I'm hearing their desire to promote leaders from within, but then they find that they're missing vital responsibilities.So XLR8 gives them the solid foundation so they are more confident, have greater clarity and focus, and less stress about managing growth.Coming soon XLR8 will also be available as an online course with 45+ videos, 11 cheat sheets and 10+ hours of content.So today I'm going to be talking about the causes and impact of unresolved conflict in your workplace.Understand that any workgroup will experience conflict between 2 or more people at some point.It's inevitable. It starts with disagreements about how to approach a particular challenge or problemIt might be a disagreement about the urgency of said challenge or problemIt might even start over something small like a thermostat setting in an office!And as the disagreements continue, it can escalate and deteriorate into 2 people unwilling to work well together: they stop communicating wellthey avoid collaborating on a customer's projectso now we have a bigger problem that could result in losing a customerThat's why I always teach my clients that if they want to create a great customer experience, that they MUST focus also on the employee experienceBecause two or more people who aren't working well together because of a difference of opinion, method, pace or whatever their issue is, CANNOT and WILL NOT provide the top level of customer experience that they either can or have in the past.Unresolved conflict is costlyIt will cost you time and profit because work is progressing slowerIt will cost you customers or clients because of slower response time, poor quality or missed deadlines…And that could add up to some staggering numbersOne thing I do with my clients in training is ask them, How much revenue does a medium-sized customer bring you on a monthly bases? Let's say it's $10,000So over a year, that's a $120,000 customerAnd over a 10-year period of time, that's a $1.2M customer!Is it worth risking $1.2M over unresolved conflict between people in your team or company? That's why training around teaching conflict resolution is absolutely vital. In fact, teaching healthy conflict resolution skills could be the difference between keeping — or losing — your best customers.It's also the difference between keeping — or losing — your best employees.What are some other results of unresolved conflict on a team? Here are 10. All of them have varying degrees of severity, but the one thing they absolutely all have in common is LOSS. Loss of time.Loss of productivity.Loss of revenue.Loss of joy.

Episode 23. In this episode, I will introduce you to Patient H.M.—as he was known for 50 years. His real name is Henry Molaison, which was revealed after his death in 2008. In 1953, Henry underwent experimental surgery to correct his epilepsy—which was cured—but with devastating consequences.*Podcast correction, the lesion in the frontal lobe was discovered after his death from reviewing the tissue sections, not from the MRI. It was caused by the original surgery.If you would like to read more about Patient H.M. and what was learned by studying his brain, check out this article here: Nature Communications, 2014.Connect with Jennifer!IG: @autobiologywithjenniferWebsite: https://autobiology.net/Autobiology Bits Podcast on AppleAutobiology Bits Podcast on GoogleAbout JenniferI am a successful medical writer having worked in the field of molecular biology, immunology research, and pharmaceutical sales training, bringing my knowledge of these topics to you so you can learn how to become an expert on your own biology.

Omar El Akkad's new novel, “What Strange Paradise,” uses some fablelike techniques to comment on the migrant crisis caused by war in the Middle East. El Akkad explains that he thinks of the novel as a reinterpretation of the story of Peter Pan, told as the story of a contemporary child refugee.“There's this thing Borges once said about how all literature is tricks, and no matter how clever your tricks are, they eventually get discovered,” El Akkad says. “My tricks are not particularly clever. I lean very hard on inversion. I wanted to take a comforting story that Westerners have been telling their kids for the last hundred years, and I wanted to invert it, to tell a different kind of story.” He continues: “At its core, it's a book about dueling fantasies: the fantasies of people who want to come to the West because they think it's a cure for all ills, and the fantasies of people who exist in the West and think of those people as barbarians at the gate. The book takes place at the collision of those two fantasies.”Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang, two reporters at The Times, visit the podcast this week to discuss their new book, “An Ugly Truth: Inside Facebook's Battle for Domination,” including how the company makes many of its strategic decisions.“A lot of people think that a company like this, that's so sophisticated, that has so many people who have come in with such incredible pedigrees, that they have a plan in mind,” Kang says. “They're actually, in many cases, doing this on the fly. They're making a lot of ad hoc decisions.”Also on this week's episode, Tina Jordan looks back at Book Review history as it celebrates its 125th anniversary; Alexandra Alter has news from the publishing world; and Emily Eakin and MJ Franklin talk about what they've been reading. Pamela Paul is the host.Here are the books discussed in this week's “What We're Reading”:“How the Word Is Passed” by Clint Smith“Red Comet” by Heather Clark“Lenin” by Victor Sebestyen
