Forget Bailey vs the Doggies, last night turned into Kane vs Bevo. The boys recap their encounter pre-game, before whipping through their top headlines from the last 24 hours. Chief puts the English press in his Slaughterhouse after Ange Postecoglou delivered the Europa League title to Tottenham, then Howie has a new segment - the Huddle Confessional. Damo had a dilemma at a cafe during the week, and Chief has a movie quiz for the boys. Howie's Hot Topics looks at sporting books, and who could coach the Tassie Devils, then Essendon legend Michael Long talks Dreamtime at the 'G and Sir Doug Nicholls Round. Browny puts health foods on notice with his Health Hotline, the boys discuss Olympic Sports that shouldn't be there, and they all have a Hot Tip for you to live a better life. The boys dive deeper into the Cornes vs Bevo incident, and if the AFL or broadcasters want these things to be happening, injured Tiger Jayden Short phones in, Browny has his top 5 footy people who weren't afraid to run their mouth, and we get one last whip around the league with the latest news. Triple M Footy's Friday Huddle is Mark Howard, Jason Dunstall, Nathan Brown, and Damian BarrettSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Great Barrier Reef is the largest reef system in the world. Covering an area of 135,000 square miles, it is bigger than the United Kingdom, Holland and Switzerland combined. Lay it out across Europe and it would reach from London to Moscow, making it is the largest living structure in the world and the only one visible from outer space.    Today, we're going to the best place in the world to experience it: Tropical North Queensland. And we're in good company with Dr Eric Fisher, a marine biologist who specializes in the Great Barrier Reef. This is a conversation is about one of the great wonders of the natural world, and what it's like to see it first-hand. But it's also about something special that Eric has introduced: Dreamtime Dives.   Most experiences on the reef tell its story from a western viewpoint. Eric has developed a new program where you can explore it from an indigenous perspective too. Guided by Aboriginal Sea Rangers, whose connection to the reef stretches back over 60,000 years, it's an opportunity to see the reef from a new perspective, and in doing so perhaps learn things about the reef we never knew before.    FIND OUT MORE Thanks again to Down Under Endeavours for partnering with us on this episode.

Every month on Pathways, host Aaron Millar and producer Jason Paton crack open a few stories, play their favorite clips, and take you on a whirlwind preview of what's coming up this month on Armchair Explorer. It's part travel hangout, part behind-the-scenes, and a whole lot of part “wait, you did what?” In this episode, we're going from the dreamtime waters of the Great Barrier Reef to the quiet strength of Chief Joseph's legacy in Oregon, from biking hidden streets in Victoria B.C. to walking with kangaroos on remote roads in South Australia. These are stories of culture, nature, and the wild places where the two intertwine.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Are You Living Someone Else's Dream? Time to Wake Up April 23, 2025 | Episode - 5078 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Have you ever had someone try to steer you off your path with well-intentioned advice? In this episode, Scott shares a recent experience where a local businessman tried to redirect his focus. With his trademark real-world perspective, Scott tackles how to recognize when others' suggestions might derail your progress and what to do about it. No motivational BS here – just practical wisdom for navigating life's distractions. Featured Story Scott recounts a business lunch where someone "stalking his podcast" tried steering him toward new ideas and focus areas. This real-world scenario highlights a common challenge – how many years have you spent reversing something that seemed like a good idea at the time? Whether it came from a teacher, a colleague, or your thinking, Scott shows you how to recognize when you're being pulled off track and stay focused on creating your path. Key Takeaways Every success begins with motivated actions – you get to decide what you want and lead the way without needing anyone's permission but your own. Your happiness depends on your ability to mine your thoughts, reveal your inner desires, and hold yourself accountable for creating what you want. Focus daily on what's essential by discerning what truly affects your success, survival, and well-being to create a world others will want to inhabit. Memorable Quotes "Life should be easy, not perfect, but average good." "Somebody else has created your whole life – they decided to do that, said there must be more, and built it." "When you create your world, it's going to be inhabited by a lot of people who want to live in your world." Scott's Three-Step Approach Understand that all success begins with motivated actions – decide what you want, lead yourself in that direction, and permit yourself to pursue it. Mine your thoughts to reveal your inner desires, accept them as your truth, and hold yourself accountable for creating what you deem essential. Every day, discern what truly affects your success and narrow your focus to what's absolutely necessary to build a world others will want to inhabit.

Aboriginal Australian cultures existed separate from the rest of the world for thousands of years. Their stories tell of verifiable events from millennia ago; they also tell of a time outside of time, called the Dreaming.

Matt and Dr. Eti Ben Simon team up to answer more audience questions today, and begin by delving into the subjective experience of time during dreams, exploring how our perception stretches and compresses during REM sleep and whether we can hack our dreams. They also explain the cognitive, emotional, hormonal, and immunological consequences of pulling an all-nighter, highlighting the dramatic impact on memory consolidation, stress hormones, appetite regulation, and immune function. The cardiovascular and metabolic repercussions are also addressed underscoring the serious health risks associated with chronic sleep deprivation.The discussion shifts to the societal bias favoring morning types, challenging the notion that evening types are simply lazy. Our hosts examine chronotypes, the “sentinel hypothesis”, and the importance of aligning sleep schedules with individual preferences for optimal health. Matt and Eti then draw the episode to a close by addressing the common phenomenon of night sweats, differentiating between pathological causes and the normal thermoregulatory disconnect during REM sleep.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.Tired of untrustworthy protein shakes?

In this series of empowerments and transmissions, we will be downloading the codes and insights that Gene just received from his visit to Mt. Coolum and the Sunshine Coast in Australia.  The land spirits and ancestors there in the spiritual worlds as well as all land spirits and ancestors around the world, gave certain universal downloads during the trip.  This is the first of three transmissions. 1) Slow Down To Increase Your Frequency-This first download is a message to modern humanity which is rapidly moving forward in all aspects of life and technology.  The state of consciousness of being rushed does not allow our frequency to access certain inner realms within our midst.  Our minds are going to fast to notice these openings, portals, and beings within our environment.  This message and state of consciousness which is slower, more deliberate, and more mindful is similar to what Aboriginals call Dreamtime-an inner spiritual realm giving rise to our physical world and interconnectedness within this world.  By slowing down our consciousness we regain access to these inner dimensions of life. Please join us for these three important and joyous transmissions.  If you are looking to access wonder, meaning, and purpose in your life then these transmissions will assist you in remembering this inside yourself.  We also access these inner world guardian angels, Masters, and Guides who have been helping us through time and eternity to remember these inner truths within ourselves. Transmissions 02 and 03 will be posted soon. Please look for them in the upcoming episodes.

This week on Tea Talks with Jiling, we are joined by Kat Maier RH, (AHG). Kat is the founder and director of Sacred Plant Traditions, a center for herbal studies in Charlottesville, Virginia. One of her greatest accomplishments has been to train many clinical herbalists who have gone onto to begin other schools, apothecaries or open practices. In clinical practice for over 30 years, Kat teaches internationally at universities, conferences, and herbal schools. She is a founding member of Botanica Mobile Clinic, a nonprofit dedicated to providing accessible herbal medicine to local communities. This grew out of her school's free clinic which was one of the first on the east coast and went on to be a template for other schools. She began her study of plants as a Peace Corps volunteer, and her training as a Physician's Assistant allows her to weave the language of biomedicine into her practice of traditional energetic herbalism.  Kat is coauthor of Bush Medicine of San Salvador Island, Bahamas, as well as the author of the Nautilus Award winning book—Energetic Herbalism: A Guide to Sacred Plant Traditions Integrating Elements of Vitalism Ayurveda, and Chinese Medicine. As a passionate steward of the plants, Kat also served as president of United Plant Savers and was the recipient of the organization's first Medicinal Plant Conservation Award.

In today's episode, I'll dive deep into the topic of fear and attachments - the hidden enemies that create suffering and prevent us from reaching our full potential. Based on a powerful dream conversation with Don Xavier, I share insights on how attachments to people, things, and ideas keep us locked in fear and away from the life lessons that help us grow.  I'll also explain how Shamans use dream time to communicate beyond the physical realm, allowing wisdom to be shared in ways we may not typically expect. Together, we explore the root of attachment and its power to dictate our emotional experiences.   From today's episode you'll learn practical steps for loosening these attachments and letting go of the fear that controls us.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Understanding Attachments as Your Biggest Enemy (01:27): How attachments bring fear, suffering, and keep us from joy.  The Shamanic Power of Dream Time (04:18): Insights on how Shamans, like Don  Xavier, use dream time to share guidance and wisdom.  The Link Between Attachment and Suffering (06:46): How letting go of attachment can lead to profound personal growth and transformation.  Practical Tips for Identifying Your Attachments (11:41): Learn how to become aware of the attachments in your life, and the negative patterns they create.  Learning to Let Go (20:16): Steps to start loosening attachments to find freedom, personal power, and greater inner peace.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway:  When we release our attachments, we not only free ourselves from fear and suffering but also open the door to true self-awareness and inner peace. By loosening the grip of attachment, we empower ourselves to live a life driven by choice rather than control.  Let's Connect:  The Jim Fortin Podcast Website  Instagram  Facebook  YouTube  LinkedIn    Mentioned Resources:  Start Your Transformation Now  Get Your Copy of My New Book - The Subconscious Solution  Learn More About The Double Slit Experiment

In this week's episode, we take a look at the best methods for finding ad graphics for book advertising. TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 224 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is October 25th, 2024 and today we are discussing the best methods for sourcing images for ad graphics. We'll also have an update on my current writing and audiobook projects. Let's go right to that. I am currently 61,000 words into Cloak of Illusion and am hoping to have that out before the end of November, since 61,000 words puts me about halfway through the rough draft, I think. I'm also 14,000 words into Orc Hoard, which will be the 4th Rivah book, and if all goes well, the final book I publish in 2024. In audiobook news, recording is underway for Shield of Conquest. That will be excellently narrated by Brad Wills, and it's also underway for Cloak of Spears and Ghost in the Tombs, which will be narrated by Hollis McCarthy. I think probably Cloak of Spears will come out first, but we will see how things play out for the rest of the month. So that's it. That is the update on my current writing project. Next month and next week, I want to do a new podcast series for the month of November that I'm going to call Moeller Writing Tips Month as sort of a gentler alternative to National Novel Writing Month (or NaNoWriMo) for a couple of reasons. The NaNoWriMo organization has had a number of problems over the years, especially recently, so I don't feel comfortable endorsing it anymore. I've also begun to wonder if NaNoWriMo is a bit like a shock diet. If you talk to doctors and other medical experts about weight loss, they say the best way is always to make small, sustainable changes that you can keep up with over time. It's better to lose like a pound a month and keep it off than it is to lose like, 5 or 10 pounds a month in a shock crash diet only to gain it all back once you go back to your own old habits because that kind of a weighty yoyoing is very hard on the body. I wonder if National Novel Writing Month, where you write 50,000 words in a month is like that for a lot of people; it's sort of a crash diet. For someone like me, Ghost in the Tombs was my 156th novel. I typically can write a rough draft or novel in a month if I don't have anything else come up. So for me, that's normal, but for most people who don't have that kind of experience, I wonder if National Novel Writing Month would be the sort of writing equivalent of those crash diets that might leave you worse off than you were to begin with. So with that in mind, next month I'll start a podcast series discussing gentler ways one can ease into the regular habit of writing. More discussion on that topic next week and next month.   00:02:45 Main Topic: Sourcing Ad Graphics Now onto our main topic for the week, sourcing ad graphics. Before we get into that, a disclaimer. I am not a lawyer and none of what I'm about to say is actual legal advice. You obtain actual legal advice by hiring a lawyer who is qualified to practice in your jurisdiction. It is very important (to continue the disclaimer) to be on firm footing with the copyright of your ad image. If you don't own the image or the right license to use it, you're infringing on someone's copyright and they can respond either legally or through the places where your book is sold. This is less of a problem with ad images than is with book covers, but it still can happen. With that in mind, some of the free stock images sites have restrictions on commercial use or modification of the images. It's a good idea to read the licenses carefully. Some of these sites have often not gotten the appropriate clearances from the models in the pictures, so be cautious of using images with identifiable faces from those types of sites. If you're not familiar with the legal term, a model release is when a model or someone in a stock photograph appears in the stock photograph. They sign a release that gives the rights for their likeness to be used for the commercial image and not all free stock image sites do that. Good stock image sites like Shutterstock or iStock Photo or Dreamstime will clearly state on the image page whether or not a model release has been included. If a model release has not been included, you can't use it for commercial purposes, and though it is not terribly likely, you can open yourself up to legal liability that way. In that vein, be also cautious about Creative Commons sites, since copyrighted work frequently ends up on those sites. This is also true of the free stock image sites, where sometimes people will pirate images and post them there. Also, many Creative Commons photos are restricted from commercial use, modification, and/or the artists require attribution. Tread carefully and make sure you understand the conditions of using images with any of the various Creative Commons licenses. And before we get into further details, it's also important to understand the difference between creating book covers and creating ad images. The number one thing to remember about ad images is that ads are ephemeral, and they should change often because you often get diminishing returns for using the same ad graphics. Ads can be tailored for different audiences. Ads can be tailored for different platforms. In fact, you kind of have to tailor ads for different platforms because, for example, Bookbub and Facebook, the two ad platforms where indie authors are most likely to use ad graphics, have very different requirements for images. People are more tolerant of AI images in ads than in book covers, but AI is very polarizing, and if you use an ad image that is easily and immediately identifiable as AI, you will probably get some pushback for that. So with all that in mind, let's first look at some free places to get images for ads and then some paid options. The number one free option is public domain images from the US government pages. It is the law of the land in the United States that images produced by the US government or federal employees in the course of their duties (with some exceptions) are in the public domain. Some of these are great as using as backgrounds or components of an ad. For example, are you a sci-fi author in need of a planet you can put behind a spaceship? You're in luck; NASA has plenty of those images and you can find them quite easily. However, sometimes U.S. government websites use stock images or government created images that have some types of restrictions. For example, NASA forbids use of images of current astronauts for commercial purposes for any reason and has some pretty strong feelings about people using their images to create NFTs. You do not want to go through life getting sued by the federal government, so you probably want to avoid that. Sources that are easiest to be confident in, images that are explicitly included in public domain collections on U.S. government websites such as the Library of Congress free to use and reuse sets website or NASA's Images Hub (this page also includes some guidance on NASA specific researchers) and the National Gallery of Art Open Access Images page. All of these have ample supplies of images that are in the public domain, and you can look over them for images you can use for ads or components of ads. Another free option is other public domain collections. Some libraries and some museums have created public domain image collections or let you filter for public domain images on their site. Very large institutions tend to be cautious about using this type of copyright language and their staff generally have training on what is or is not public domain. The Art Institute of Chicago has a public domain filter on their search page and The Met museum in New York has an Open Access filter in their search page where you can look for images in the public domain. The third free option and one that I have done myself a lot is take your own photos and use your own photographs for backgrounds components in an ad, etcetera. Since you're the creator, you hold the copyright. I have done this in a lot of the books I have published in 2024 and the ad images I created in 2024. A fair bit of them have my own photos because I took some trips to some fairly scenic parts of the country this year. I was fortunate enough to be able to do that, so while I was there, I took lots of pictures with an eye towards using them in ad images and book covers because as you get more practice with graphic design, your projects tend to have more layers to them. You often come across things and think well, this wouldn't be a good image by itself but would be a great background or great foreground and I can use pieces of it to assemble a better picture. So I've done that a fair bit and since I own the rights to all the photographs, I am one hundred percent in the clear. Now let's move on to a few free or low-cost options and one that might be a bit controversial. In fact, it is controversial: AI generated images. The pros of this are that the US government has consistently ruled so far (this might change after the election, but it might not) is that AI images cannot be copyrighted in any capacity. This means you can quickly make eye-catching art that matches your specifications instead of hunting for stock art. The con is that many people will assume that the book is AI generated if they see an AI generated ad image and many people strongly dislike AI art in general, or object to AI art on principle, viewing it as a form of theft. For myself, I've decided that my personal ethical line on this (barring changes in circumstances or laws) is that I will not sell anything that was created by AI. If I am selling anything or giving away a free ebook, it is 100% written by me and the cover was either made by me or someone I hired to do it. And in the audio books I sell, they are 100% narrated by an actual human being. That said, I have, I'd say, from time to time, used AI for ad images for the reasons we've discussed. Ads are ephemeral and phased out pretty quickly, but I have found that it's generally unwise to use an unmodified AI image, because it has such a very clear and obvious AI look to it. It's a good idea if you are going to use an AI image for an ad to run it through Photoshop a bit and change the look and maybe eliminate some of the more obvious AI tells such as extra fingers or misshapen eyes, that kind of thing. So if you are comfortable using AI, it can be a good source of ad images with some work, but otherwise, if you're not comfortable with it and you think your audience would be offended by it, it's probably best to avoid it. So those are the free/slightly free options, and now it's time to move on to the official paid options. The first paid option we're going to discuss is Shutterstock. You pay by image. It's simpler than the credit systems that Dreamstime uses, and the interface is easy to use. I have not generally used Shutterstock all that much because it tends to be a bit more expensive than the other options. However, you can find some very high-quality photos there if you are patient enough to look. The second paid option we're going to look at is Dreamstime. You can either pay images a la carte with credits you buy or by subscription. I have used Dreamstime quite a bit and quite a few of my covers have images I have licensed from Dreamtime. I'd say the pros of Dreamstime is that it has a very large and very strong library. The con (and this is true of stock photo sites in general) is that it's very easy to find an image that is like 95% perfect, but that 5% would be a lot of work to fix in Photoshop or just isn't right for some reason. Additionally, I don't agree with this decision on Dreamstime where they've begun including a lot of AI generated stuff on their page. It's clearly labeled as AI and you can use filters in the search engine to filter out the AI stuff, but if you're looking for stuff for covers because like I've said before, my personal ethical line (barring changes in law) is that I won't sell anything that was made by AI. If I'm looking for elements for a cover, it's really annoying to have to double check to make sure that the image was not AI generated, which is another good reason to use your own photos because you can then be certain it wasn't AI generated. The final paid option that many authors and many professional graphic designers use is Adobe Stock. Adobe Stock is probably the gold standard for stock photos. It has a large library with a range of image types and very clear license terms. The flip side is it's expensive. You can often include it with an Adobe subscription (which is in itself quite expensive) and then you get a limited number of image credits every month and that can be quickly expensive. If you have an Adobe subscription, you can also use Adobe's Firefly AI image generating service. It's not quite as powerful as Midjourney or some of the other ones available, but that said, it is trained only on stuff that Adobe technically has the legal rights to do. In my experiments with it, I found that Adobe Firefly's AI generator is not good at generating scenes. It is good at generating components of scenes, like you could tell it to generate a forest or a beach or a mountain, or a castle or something, and that'd be pretty good. Then you can modify it and add in other elements later, but it's not so good at generating a finished scenes the way that something like Midjourney would be. Now that we've looked at sources for stock images, let's look at a couple of paid sites that can help you use the ad images you have found. Obviously, you can work on them in Photoshop or GIMP or Affinity Photo editor, but those are fairly complicated programs that can take quite a bit of effort to learn. There are websites that now specialize in helping you to create specific ad graphics. I'd say the most valuable one for indie authors is Book Brush. It is a specialized image editing website designed for indie authors. It lets you make things like 3D covers of your books or audiobooks to include as part of an ad, and it also has a variety of ad templates, where you will have ad templates that are the right size and resolution for the various ad platforms, and then you can drop in the elements you need to make an appropriate ad graphic. So if you're an indie author who just wants to make ad graphics or maybe even some basic covers, Book Brush would be well worth your time to investigate, in my opinion. A second option would be Canva Pro. Amazon has explicitly said in their guidelines they don't like people using it for book covers, but ads are a different game and Canva is reliable for this purpose. It's good for beginners and those starting out. It's quick and easy to reuse. The downside is that since Canva is so popular, people have gotten used to the Canva look and you get bored with seeing those, especially if you've only minimally modified a template, but with some creativity, you can make an ad graphic that looks fairly nice. So that is it for this week. I hope you will find that helpful for finding sources for your ad graphics. Thanks for listening to The Pulp Writer Show. I hope you found the show useful.

Dreamtime - A doctor visits his dying brother in Australia only to hear an unbelievable story about ancients civilizations, lost secrets and time travel. This story was ORIGINALLY two separate episodes! We wanted to keep things short and bite-sized for you... then realized that many people were listening to the episodes out of order, or not to ALL of the episodes! We are wondering how the story made sense to you!?! Now, we've combined it so that you get the whole experience in one episode. Let us know how you liked it!
