Hello Everyone In this episode, Ed Talks about the dos and Don'ts when at a comic con as a cosplayer and photographer. We discuss many points, from the obvious such as "asking to take the cosplayers' photos", "Don't touch the cosplayer and props without asking". But also we share some of our personal thoughts from "Communicate your comfort levels, preferred angles", "push/shove props and armour aren't as tough as they look", "Keep to the agreed schedule" and many more. https://www.mcmcomiccon.com/birmingham/en-us/about/faqs/cosplay-etiquette.html Feat: Hijabi Hoo Instagram // Twitch // Facebook // Tiktok Music credit – Neon Nights, produced by Scott Holmes Artwork by khemmings94 To support my podcast, please visit our Patreon page Food And Cosplay Links Website // Instagram // Twitter // Facebook // Threads

In this episode of The Fabricator Podcast, Kirk McCauley, owner of American Engineering and Metalworking (AEM) in North Canton, Ohio, shares his journey from the tool and die world to running a modern, full-service metal fabrication shop. McCauley explains how embracing automation, laser welding, and robotic material handling has helped AEM stay competitive, and why investing in people and creating a collaborative workplace culture are just as important as investing in technology. Tune in for insights on leading a small to mid-sized fab shop through innovation and adaptability. At the top, we also chat about The Fabricator's 2025 Industry Award winner Special Products & Mfg. (SPM) and Nora Harding's upcoming appearance on the Ed Talks podcast. This episode was recorded during the FMA Annual Meeting at Gila River Resorts & Casinos - Wild Horse Pass in Chandler, Arizona.

A message from Ed - Build to Rent is a tiny sector at the moment - with perhaps c.150k units in a vast sea of property.However, with private landlords (sadly) exiting the sector, and some developers struggling to sell stock, the ability of an experienced operator to manage large numbers of units by taking a chunk of a development is increasingly attractive and one way to maintain a sufficient flow of rental properties. However, with pension funds always looking for long term safety and returns and a Gov't seemingly looking to increase housing stock, simply taking stock off developers isn't going to be anywhere near enough.Step forward SFH, single family homes. Traditionally more difficult to manage en masse as they tend to be pepper potted about geographically. The majority of us live in a house, so we need more houses - and investing in portfolios of actual houses is a good way of doing it.Smaller Estate Agents have usually struggled to get into land and new homes BUT, this rush to BTR and SFH could be a godsend to forward thinking agents. Investors are looking for portfolios, so if agents have intimate knowledge of their locale, one of their main assets surely, they must be able to seek out such housing and developments and put them to investors with a view to helping manage as well?Great opportunity that Richard and I discuss in more detail - I think you'll find this seriously interesting...

EDTalks: Transforming Education For A Changing World by EDTalksMN

This EDTalk features Coach, author and educator Larry McKenzie. Larry is the first coach to win four straight state titles in the 100-year history of Minnesota State Boys Basketball, and the first coach in Minnesota high school basketball history to lead two separate schools to multiple titles. But beyond the trophies and medals, Coach McKenzie has accomplished something even more impressive: coaching and supporting his athletes to increase their academic performance alongside their athletic skills. Using basketball as a tool, he has led his players to 100% high school graduation and a 3.4 team GPA. Coach McKenzie shares stories about his journey at Minneapolis high schools and how he helps his student athletes become champions on the basketball court, in the classroom, in their families and in their communities. EDTalks is co-presented by Achieve Twin Cities and Graves Ventures, a project of the Graves Foundation. For more information on EDTalks or to watch EDTalks videos or listen to audio podcasts, visit achievetwincities.org.

This EDTalk features Sandy Bolton Barrientos is community coach for the South High School debate team and member of the Minnesota Urban Debate League (MNUDL) community, where they focus on curriculum design. An abolitionist organizer in South Minneapolis, they are a studio trainer for REP MN, where they teach workshops that build networks of community crisis support, and co-founder of Futures Beyond Criminalization, which hosts events on public safety, harm reduction and policing alternatives. Sandy is an alum of Minneapolis Public Schools and a student in the University of Minnesota's DirecTrack to Teaching program with a concentration in second languages and cultures. Sandy believes debate offers a unique space where students can freedom-dream institutions that affirm their livelihoods, visualize a future of joy and liberation for all people, and ultimately begin to formulate imaginative and realistic solutions for the big problems facing their communities. Sandy presents testimonials from current and former students on the impact of debate on their lives and argue strongly for additional resources and support for debate in Minneapolis Public Schools. EDTalks is co-presented by Achieve Twin Cities and Graves Ventures, a project of the Graves Foundation.
