SoftBank has backed some of the most game-changing startups of our time — Uber, Grab, TikTok — companies that reshaped how we move, eat, and connect.The man behind it is Masayoshi Son — a founder unlike any other. Bold, fearless, and sometimes reckless, Masa didn't just invest in companies, he devoured them. His empire stretched from Tokyo to Silicon Valley, built on billion-dollar bets, wild risk-taking, and the unshakeable belief that he could see the future before anyone else.But every empire comes at a price.This is the story of SoftBank — how one man from Japan took on the world's biggest tech giants, gambled billions, lost it all… and came back for more.Episode 1: Impress, Charm and DeceiveA young Masayoshi Son hustles his way through Silicon Valley — using every trick in the book...and outside it.Episode 2: The SoftBank MiracleBack in Japan, Masa builds SoftBank from nothing — surviving betrayal, bankruptcy, and even a terminal illness to become the king of Japan's software industry.Episode 3: Every Piece of ThemMasa goes global — buying tech magazines, trade fairs, Yahoo shares, and placing a life-changing bet on a then-unknown Chinese startup: Alibaba.Episode 4: Widening the NetAfter the Dot-Com Crash wipes out 96% of his wealth, Masa bets everything on broadband and mobile — taking on Japan's telecom giants and winning control of Vodafone Japan.Episode 5: WarchestDetermined to rule the future, Masa creates the $100 billion Vision Fund — a war chest so powerful it could turn founders into billionaires overnight — even if their companies were never built to last — all while setting his sights on Artificial Intelligence.-Our series is proudly sponsored by AlphaSense.-Access expert analyst reports, perfectly summarised by Gen-AI with precision and no hallucinations.

For the first time, my podcast comes full circle! Though I started and run this show in Hong Kong, I've yet to feature a guest from right here in my home city—until today. Meet May Yeung: a teaching artist, founder of the charity Art of My Family, cancer survivor, and proud mom to an 14-month-old cutie. Through art, May is reshaping lives and championing sustainability, mental health, and social inclusion right here in Hong Kong. In a city known for its financial might, May shows us a path of passion and purpose, proving that art can spark meaningful change. Bonus? Our youngest guest yet—her 14-month-old son—is along for the ride. Stay tuned!

Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics! This week, join Julia, Thom, and Anthony as they gather to discuss the 2022 Hallmark Original Movie, "Our Italian Christmas Memories". (You get one guess as to which elf will be hosting this episode based on the title alone.) Slightly more somber for a Hallmark Christmas movie, does the tone work for the elves? And how properly does the film capture the Italian holiday experience? Well, you'll just have to tune in to find out! So, settle back with your favorite holiday drink, relax, and enjoy this festive treat, which is the perfect way to kick off your week! As always, thanks for your love and support, y'all!

In this episode, we explore the powerful realization that you are whole, even when life seems to reflect only fragments. Imagine a mirror shattered into pieces—each piece still holds your full reflection, reminding you that nothing is missing or broken within you. The 3D world acts as this broken mirror, showing you various parts of yourself, yet it's just an illusion. When we stop trying to "fix" these reflections and instead embrace the truth of our complete, unbroken 5D self, we find profound peace and freedom. Tune in to discover how to see beyond the illusions, release the need to repair what's already whole, and connect with your deeper, timeless self who has always been complete.

Our youngest guest is in the house today! I started this show in Hong Kong, and I run this show in Hong Kong. I'm originally from Hong Kong, talking to guests from every corner of the world. Yet, so far, I haven't interviewed any guest from right here in Hong Kong. Today, that changes. I'm excited to bring a local guest to the studio—May Yeung, founder of the charity Art of My Family, a teaching artist, a cancer survivor, a mother to a 11-month-old cute boy. May has experienced many life changes over the years, and she's determined to use the power of art, in her own way, to change lives and create an environmentally sustainable, mentally healthy, and socially inclusive society here in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is not just about business, finance, and money. May has chosen a different path to do well and do good. And as a side note: we've got our youngest guest ever—May's 11-month-old son—joining us on the show, so don't go away!

Over the last 7 years, I have scaled 20VC to 100M+ downloads, and listeners in 117 countries, and all of this with a spend of less than $1,000. Here are 10 of my biggest lessons: Lesson 1: Persistence: This is a game of who can last the longest. Lesson 2: Platform Selection: Choose the platform that best aligns to your skills and passion, not the one that is "hottest" at the time. Lesson 3: Just Start: The biggest reason people fail is because they do not take the first step. The V1 will never be perfect but it will improve. Press publish. Lesson 4: Consistency: You have to create a habit within your audience. You have to let them know when they should expect your content. This will also creating a forcing function for you to stick to. Lesson 5: Be Targeted on your Content Topic: Do not be vague. You have to be very specific in the topic you choose. Start very niche. Find your 100 true fans. Expand from there. Lesson 6: Every Piece of Content is Born Multi-Channel: You do a talk. This is not a single talk. This can be turned into a podcast. Several TikToks. A medium piece. No content is in isolation. Lesson 7: The Right Ratio Between Creation and Distribution: Do not create content and then press publish and think the work ends there. You have to spend the same amount of time distributing the content as you do creating it. Lesson 8: Create Champions: In the early days it is all about finding your 100 true fans. DM people that follow you. Make them feel special. They will retain and tell their friends. Create champions. Lesson 9: Bring People Into the Creation Process: When people feel a part of the creation of content, they will share it actively. Make more people feel part of the creation process. Lesson 10: Each Channel is Different, Optimise for Them: Different channels require different content types, formats, audio, optimise on a per channel basis.

CARD SHARK is a beautiful picture book styled video game where you cheat your way through 18th century France and every single graphic you see was hand printed and then scanned into the game.

Guest Co-host Rebecca Hoffman:  rebecca@goodeggconcepts.comRebecca's Website:  www.GoodEggConcepts.comPodcast Guest:  Nicole Gordon:  nicole@nicolegordon.comNicole's Website:  https://nicolegordon.com/ Transcription:Kris Parsons  0:03  Welcome to changing the rules, a weekly podcast about people who are living their best life and how you can figure out how to do it too. Join us with your lively host Ray Loewe, better known as the luckiest guy in the world.Ray Loewe  0:18  Good morning, everybody. And we're here in our podcast studios, Wildfire podcast, and Woodbury, New Jersey. And we're here with our engineer Taylor. And just a quick word about Wildfire. You know, they have made this whole thing possible for us. We started this thing over a year ago, we had no idea how to do a podcast, we still don't know how to do a podcast. But Taylor runs everything for us. And it all works. So we're here with two interesting topics that I want to bring up before we get to our main guest, the name of our show is "Changing the Rules." And that's largely because we're all fed a body of rules throughout our life. And those rules are kind of forced us to conform in a certain way. And over time, some of those rules become not so relevant to us. And our point is that we need to grasp those rules that we want to adapt as ours. And only when you choose your own rules, do you become free to be you and to become one of the luckiest people in the world. And remember, the luckiest people in the world are those people who design their own lives, and then live them. And we're here today with a couple of the luckiest people in the world. And we're here to bring a message to more of the luckiest people in the world. So Rebecca Hoffman is going to be our co-host this month. And I'm excited about this for several reasons. First of all, Rebecca is, adding a new dimension to the guests that we're interviewing, because she's bringing on a lot of people that she knows that are lucky in different ways than traditionally we've, we've talked to people about. And so Rebecca is the leader, I guess it's the leader, CEO, manager,Rebecca Hoffman  2:15  right, Chairman,Ray Loewe  2:16  The head egg of good egg concepts. And again, I have to read this again, because I love this definition. Rebecca leads good egg concepts an economical, thoughtful, clever, endlessly curious consulting firm focused on your goals and brand. And she's based in the Chicago area. And she helped me tremendously because she is such a great storyteller. And she's helped me weave stories into my whole marketing campaign and my whole life. So Rebecca, welcome to changing the rules.Rebecca Hoffman  2:52  Thank you, Ray, really appreciate it's nice to be here with you and with our guest, Nicole Gordon. Hi. Hi, Nicole. Thank you for joining us today, I want to just say a couple things about you to the listening audience so they know where we're coming from, and then we'll go. Nicole Gordon is an artist living in the Chicago area, but working all over. Your art has been featured in galleries from coast to coast from New York City to Los Angeles, and you've had solo exhibitions, and most recently at the Bellevue Arts Museum, Bellevue, Washington. And I think what probably strikes people the most about your art are the themes, the colors, the textures, and we can talk a little bit about that. But you know, for our listening audience, if people want a peek, go to NicoleGordon.com, and you can kind of see what we're talking about as we go. Thank you for joining us.Nicole Gordon  3:44  Thanks for having me. So happy to be doing this.Rebecca Hoffman  3:48  Well, you know, you're an artist, and you're living and working in real life. And I think a lot of times people believe artists are like these, like this. It's like a fantasy world, which that's hard to achieve in everyday life. Right.Nicole Gordon  4:02  Yeah, I agree. I think that there's sort of this idea that artists sort of live on a whole different plane, and that we live in this other spectrum of our brain. And that, you know, it's all about sort of this creative inspiration and finding inspiration and living in this other place. But, you know, the reality is for myself, and I think a lot of people who would consider themselves pretty productive artists is that there is still this sense of, you know, needing to have a regular schedule, and needing to sort of keep at it every day, all the time. And this idea of sort of the creative spark, you know, it's a little bit more about just sticking with it and kind of working things every day to just like almost like a regular job and the more you work at it sort of the more productivity you have.  Rebecca Hoffman  5:01  Your regular job takes you into your studio and in your studio, you create worlds of fantasy. Do you want to talk a little bit about the discipline? Because I mean, we're always interrupted by email, and texts and telephone is ringing. How do you do that?  Nicole Gordon  5:16  Well, I have sort of the way that I have, the way that I work has changed dramatically over the years, you know, as I've gotten older as I have a family now that I have to attend to. And of course, with the pandemic, with this really odd scheduling, I've had to really adapt the way that I work to make it work so that I can still be productive. So maybe back in my 20s, when I could be in the studio all day and weekends. I could really spend more time being more sort of off the cuff with the way I work. And I could spend a lot of time working on one thing, where I say after a week, oh, that doesn't work. And I paint right over it because I had all the time in the world to sort of to work on it.  But nowadays, I've really honed my craft so that the studio time, which is very truncated, is more productive. So I do a lot of my sketching digitally now. And I've got a lot of my ideas worked out ahead of time I work very thematically, so I have these concepts that I work with. And I sort of input imagery that I love to these different designs. And by the time I get into the studio, I kind of have things mapped out a lot more thoroughly than I ever used to. And so what that does, yeah, it allows me to be really productive with my time I can go in, and sort of have a couple of hours here and there where I know I'm sort of moving the ball forward.Ray Loewe  6:51  You know, just to put this in perspective. Okay, so you're working in your home, but you're also raising two children. Is that correct?  Nicole Gordon  7:01  Three, yes, three children. There's a pair of them. They're twins.Ray Loewe  7:06  So how old are your kids?Nicole Gordon  7:09  I have a 11-year-old twin boys who are in fifth grade. And I have an eight-year-old son who is in second grade.Ray Loewe  7:17  So how does one you know I think we have a lot of people who listen to these podcasts who are saying, gee, I wish I could do what these people do? But I'm here at home, I manage a household I've got young kids running around, how do you do this? So what was your path? And how do you manage all of this?Nicole Gordon  7:40  I think that there's a couple of things at play here. One is feeling okay about saying I need time, that is just for myself. And it's really coming to terms with my kids are going to be okay, you know, I can make sure that they're fed and that they have their needs addressed. But they also understand that I'm an artist, and I have a job that is very important to me both emotionally and you know, financially, and that I require this time to get my work done. So there's sort of an expectation that's been sort of put on the table from an early age from them that they understand that this is something that I do and it's not really optional. The other thing is that I have really sort of trained myself, and this is a very important thing for me. So it's not something that I'm really willing to put aside. You know, maybe, obviously, in circumstances out of my control, but generally I make it part of my routine. And that might mean, in the last year, my routine isn't working nine to three like it used to be where I at least have these school hours. Now my time working might be you know, 10 to 1130, and then come down and make sure that they have lunch and then again back up at it from one to three. And just finding those moments that even if they're not the same all the time. And even if you have to sort of change the way that you work, just to keep going with it and making sure it is an integral part of your daily life. And it's amazing, you can actually get a lot done even in smaller amounts of time if you just keep doing it every day.Rebecca Hoffman  9:31  With focus, and I have to say I've I feel fortunate that I've been able to see your work across all the years that you've been working through a little bit of the work we've done together. And one of the things I observed is your work now does seem informed by this discipline, the subject matter of your art. Not always but often includes what I would just define as like an observer person who is often younger. You don't even necessarily see the face of that person, but the observer is looking at the subject matter of the painting with the person looking at the painting. Could you talk a little bit about the major motifs in your work? I just so the listeners know it's fantastical, but it's also realistic. And themes of the teacups and forest fires and earthquakes and pink flamingos.Nicole Gordon  10:21  Yep, I would say a generally a theme that runs through my work is looking at the world. In all of the good, the bad, and the ugly, and putting them together all of these disparate ideas and concepts into these narratives that are beautiful, and also haunting. And I, you know, these, these are things that tend to make up human existence that, you know, the yin and the yang, and we can't have beauty without decay. And a lot of it was inspired by sort of watching my children interact with the world. And this idea of finding beauty in the unknown and wanting for my kids to really take these moments to really sit quietly in the world, and not be constantly inundated with electronics and schedules and sports. And in realizing that these fleeting moments, of solitude and quiet, are really the most important thing that we have to fuel, our creativity and our ability to interact with the world creatively. And be thought-provoking humans. So the work is really about these dream-like worlds that we can create, within our own minds, if given that opportunity to be left alone. And these worlds are, again, filled with beauty. But there, it's also frightening, because as anybody might know, sitting alone with your thoughts, isn't always peaches, you know, you kind of have to dig deep. And sometimes that's a really terrifying place to be.Rebecca Hoffman  12:01  That's really interesting how you know, so you're a person, you do find beauty in that complexity and the difficulty of understanding what we could kind of broadly define as challenging moments or experiences.  Nicole GodonOh, I find I love beauty in sort of those more difficult moments, I think that that's what I really look for is, and I use a lot of graffiti in my work. And I love this sort of really rough imagery, where there's layers, and layers, and layers of art. I considered very beautiful artwork, even things were that most people wouldn't find really beautiful. But this idea that you know, history is sort of layering on top of each other, and really finding beauty in things that are decaying and things that aren't meant to be beautiful. And I use a lot of imagery of amusement parks that are in various states of decay. And I use the amusement park imagery as something that conceptually stands for something that can be both thrilling and terrifying. At the same time or two different people, one person might look at and say this is like the greatest thing of my life. And somebody might say, you know, I wouldn't go near that with a 10-foot pole. So I like these images that mean different things to different people.  Because pandemic years have been periods of time of great creativity for people who had that within their soul. They say that Shakespeare wrote, you know, right through a pandemic, and it was a great time for focus. Do you find your work shifting at all during this pandemic experience that we're collectively having? Or do you feel like it's just providing you with more time to work on what you were already working on? Or is it informing your work in some way?Nicole Gordon  13:58  Oh, it's definitely informing my work. The work that I've done in the past year has been fairly directly related to what's been happening in this shutdown. And interestingly, of course, my work leading up to this has been about solitude and finding beauty in being alone. So in some funny ways, there has already been a connection to it, because of course, this is something that we've all been forced to do. And so the work is sort of a continuation on that, of finding sort of the ability to be alone and creating worlds for ourselves that are meaningful, while the world outside repairs itself. And so that's really what this new work is about is sort of like. Alright, we're all here together, alone, in our own little pods. And outside the world is trying to figure out you know, how to repair so how are we going to create beauty for ourselves in a world that's kind of, um, you know, it's not falling apart.  It's working on itself. You know, that's what?  Ray Loewe  15:11  No, go ahead Nicole finish your train of thought.Nicole Gordon  15:13  I was just gonna say that's what a lot of this newer work and newer imagery has really been about for me.Ray Loewe  15:19  You know, it's interesting to me because I consider myself an art Luddite. Okay, you know, I have no artistic background whatsoever. And, being able to talk to an artist and find out why they're creating and what their thinking is, as they create. And I think I told you the story, when we had our prep interview that I've been to most of the major museums in the world.  And I've come out of them and felt, you know, I didn't get it. And I think a lot of it is these five things. I mean, you'll like it or you don't, you know why you like it, you understand what the artist has in mind. And you understand how difficult the media is that you're working with. And, I guess there's a fifth one, I guess you can go to a famous art school and become an expert, and then you get to tell everybody what's important and what's not, right.  Rebecca Hoffman  16:13  But ultimately, it's what you express, that's what your viewer is moved by, or not moved by it.  But I think, you know, good art is emotional and it moves you. You may not even understand it, but you're compelled to look right.Ray Loewe  16:30  And that's what I'm finding and I'm it's gonna be interesting to go back and relook at some of your paintings. Having had this interview with you where I've got some insight into what you were thinking and what drives your thinking here.  Nicole Gordon  16:48  Yeah, I always think that that's an interesting thing. I tend to, you know, there's I love talking about my work and telling people sort of what was going on in my head. But equally, I love hearing what people have to say about it without having any being fed any information for me. Because I'm always amazed at things that people get out of it that are clearly a representation of what their personal story is. And I think when you're looking at art, and when you're interacting with art, so much of it, because you know, the artist isn't sitting there 99% of the time. I'm telling you, this is what you should be looking for. So really what it becomes, is a conversation between the viewer and their personal experiences that have shaped them. And how those experiences that have shaped them, make them reflect on the work. And I think because my work is so narrative, and it has a lot going on, there are a lot of different things that people can resonate with, that may resonate with them in completely different ways than maybe my initial intention. And I love hearing about those things as well, because they're is equally as important, if not more so because at the end of the day, it's really about that interaction more than my intention.Ray Loewe  18:06  Okay, so real quickly, I saw one of your paintings when I was going through your website, and it's a painting of a giant panda sitting in a sea of I think sunflowers.Nicole Gordon  18:17  Yes.Ray Loewe  18:18  Now I have a panda project that I've been working on in China, where we're working with a group of people to release baby pandas in the wild. That thing hit me right away.  Nicole Gordon  18:28  Ah, I love that. And then I didn't know that exactly, this is exactly what we're talking about. So that hit you in a way, because of your personal experience, that you can relate to that piece in a way much differently than anybody else.  Ray Loewe  18:41  And the color that you put in there. You know, I just got a kick out of the color the content and there's a certain amount of wimzie in there it it put a big smile on my face and made me feel good. How's that? Oh,Nicole Gordon  18:56  I like that. That's great. And that's, you know, I hope people do feel good when they're looking at my work. I think I tried to have wimzie, I tried to have beauty. And I tried to have a little bit of darkness, just to kind of make you think oh well makes it'll sort of make you stick with the work a little bit longer. And help you make you digested it a little bit.Ray Loewe  19:17  As you go through this journey that you're on, you know. You are obviously an artist early in your life and you know, created or gave a lot of time to your artwork, and then children came into play, and you still have young children. So you're stuck with that for a while. And that's going to have an influence on you. And you're well known now, and you get people who commissioned art from you, and then you do some of your stuff freelance too. Where are you going? You know what's the when this is all done. What's the impression that you want to leave to let everybody know that Nicole Gordon was here?  Nicole Gordon  20:00  You know I have to tell you that I tend to not think that broadly about that. You know, I don't think like, Oh, I want these paintings hanging around, you know, 100 years after I'm gone for my legacy. I would say that first and foremost, I create out of an absolute obsession and need to create. And that is, first and foremost for myself. And I. But that being said, part of being an artist, I think, in general, is also sharing that art with the world. So you can go, you know, I could sit in the studio and create, but I don't think that that in and of itself is a fulfillment. I think part of what takes it full circle is being able to take this work out of my studio and put it into the world for people to interact with and enjoy. And that has always been hugely important to me. And being able to have these exhibitions and pushing the work.  I'm never satisfied to kind of keep with the same thing too long. So I think for me, to have a long distinguished career means constantly moving my work into a new place into someplace that I may not have envisioned years before. And I'm continuing to sort of move off the canvas. And I've started to create these 3d based installation works, which initially, were very outside of my comfort zone. And I think in order to kind of keep relevant, and to keep making interesting work, you have to continually push yourself outside of your comfort zone. And move into different material usage and in different concepts in order to find new meaning with the work and why I'm making it.Rebecca Hoffman  21:59  That's very interesting because the major theme of this podcast is changing the rules. And we may have some listeners who are sitting at home thinking. I am not a creative person, I could never do what Nicole is doing. But I think creativity is a little bit like a muscle that either you use it or you don't use it or to varying degrees. Everybody has it. What would you say to people sitting at home who are thinking, gosh, I wish I could be like Nicole, I wish I could paint, I wish I could make things I wish I could express my unconscious experience of this world. However, that may be what would you say to people who would love to take a chance, but don't know how?Nicole Gordon  22:36  Well and this is exactly what I tell a lot of students as well. And I think that there is a lot of fear that keeps people from doing anything because people are so afraid of, let's say in artists making work and not having it be the best thing they've ever made. Or putting things out there and having it rejected. And the fact of the matter is, what I tell people is I said just make something every day, just put a little, you know, pencil to the paper, whatever material you want. And not everything you do has to be the best thing you've ever made. In fact, you know, as you said, it's a muscle and you just have to keep flexing it, and the more you do it, the more confident that you become. And that's kind of then where the wheels start moving in your head. And you might be able to start saying, Well if it weren't for this first mark I made, I wouldn't have thought, Oh, this might take me someplace else. And I think that you constantly have to just kind of keep working in order to find where that next thing may take you. And if you don't ever start, you're never going to know where to go.Ray Loewe  23:47  I think that it's about taking a chance. Yeah, I think that's great advice. And I think you've demonstrated why you're one of the luckiest people in the world. You've carved out your career. You make time for it, it's important to you and you just keep moving. And Rebecca, we are near the end of our time, unfortunately, do you have any summing comments that you want to make?Rebecca Hoffman  24:09  Well, it just all goes too fast. We could talk all day about the art. Thank you, Nicole, for being with us today and talking with us about your work a little bit.Nicole Gordon  24:20  No. It was my pleasure. Thank you for the insightful commentary.Ray Loewe  24:23  Do you have any closing comments, you want to make anything that's important that you want to say?Nicole Gordon  24:30  Yeah, I think that we hit on a lot of the big important things and I got to say a lot about how I feel about it. But I think that to close it out what I do think for people, the most important thing is, is to just sort of step outside of your comfort zone and just try something new because you never know where that might lead. And that's kind of what I continually do. And I think that's the most important thing for myself and for others who want to sort of kickstart any kind of creative career?Ray Loewe  25:04  So thanks, Nicole, for showing us how to break the rules and change the rules. You did good. Okay. And we're gonna close out this podcast and Rebecca Hoffman will be with me as guest host again in another week, and we have a couple more incredible guests. And they're all well, nobody's as interesting as Nicole, but they're up there. How's that? Okay. So, thanks for being yeah, thanks for being with us on changing the rules. And we'll see you again in a week.Nicole Gordon  25:37  Good. Thanks so much.Kris Parsons  25:41  Thank you for listening to changing the rules, a weekly podcast about people who are living their best life and how you can figure out how to do that too.

You’ve heard it before—if you want to be successful in content marketing or SEO, you need to consistently produce high-quality content for your brand. But “high-quality” is a generic and ambiguous term that could mean a lot of things. It theoretically refers to multiple mediums of content, and applies to content written for any strategy for any brand, but what does it actually mean? Is there some kind of switch that triggers and suddenly turns a low-quality piece into a high-quality one? There’s a sliding scale of quality, and obviously, you want to get as high on that scale as possible. If you’re concerned or confused about the ambiguity of the term in relation to your own strategy, refer to this 15-point checklist, which I’ve used to define “high-quality” as succinctly and clearly as possible: Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Custom content writing service Link building What do you want to hear more about?

Every piece of Art you've ever wanted to see up close and searchable Today I wanted to do an extension lesson on a short podcast I did about Google Arts culture. Today's lesson is focused around two videos by Amid Sood.Building a museum of museums on the webhttps://www.ted.com/talks/amit_sood_building_a_museum_of_museums_on_the_webEvery piece of Art you've ever wanted to see up close and searchable https://www.ted.com/talks/amit_sood_every_piece_of_art_you_ve_ever_wanted_to_see_up_close_and_searchableDriven by his passion for art, Amit Sood tells the story of how he developed an Art Project to let people all around the world visit some amazing places. This is a video very relevant in today's time. We talk about the accessibility of art for people around the world and how this project is changing how we access art.In the second video, you'll join Amid Sood and Google artist in residence Cyril Diagne in a mind-bending demo from the Cultural Institute and glimpse the exciting future of accessibility to arts and culture. I think this is also particularly relevant for education today so that for example students in India, has access to some of these artefacts.Who is Amit Sood? He is the director of Google's Cultural Institute. He stresses that he isn't an artist himself nor is he an expert but he is passionate about making art accessible to everyone (as am I). He and his team work on making art and culture accessible and engaging for everyone. They have partnered with over 1,000 museums, archives and other institutions from more than 70 countries to bring our shared heritage onto the web and connect them with people through new technologies. They have been experimenting with combining art with machine learning algorithms and other advanced technologies to create new ways to explore our cultures.VocabularyPitch an idea - presenting an idea to someoneTo make something more accessible - make it easier for people to be able to use it or see itThe best if yet to come - this is only the start - good things have happened but even more good things are still going to comeDo justice to their artwork - to present or show something in a way that means it is being fairly representing and getting the praise it deservesTo be blown away - a phrasal verb which means you were really impressed with somethingGet a taste of something - you get to experience a little something that helps you to understand what it might be like to be thereVocabulary for giving an optiontheoretically - in a way that relates to the theory of a subject or area rather than experiences. For example, theoretically, all people could walk for an hour without stopping.personally - in my opinionundoubtedly - there is no doubtOtherwise - the contraryWithout a doubt - there is no doubtAs far as I'm concerned - in my strong opinionI'm under the impression that - I thought thatIn my view - in my opinion Do you agree with these statements? If it was free to go to a museum, more people would go.   Britain has many free museums but I read an article recently where the author thought that museums should be free.https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/jonathanjonesblog/2015/jul/23/museums-should-charge-entrance-feesMost of the world are living without access to arts and cultureBeing able to see a painting up close from the comfort of your own home gives you more time to learn about the painting. Artwork collections should be rotated more often into different galleries so more people around the world can see them. Money made from ticket entries should go into arts and cultural fundingExpression - That goes without saying - meaning that is obvious! Of course, it should.It's a good idea that museums are accessible online and to everyone?  Do you think Google Arts and Culture replicates the experience of being in a museum? Is going to a museum something you only do when you go on vacation? Everyone should make virtual exhibitionsArtsteps is a a web-based environment that allows its members to

Why does every piece of music sound the same? Heather and Chris discuss the patterns that show up time and time again in some of history's most famous tracks.

This question was sent by Ruth, and she writes: I am working hard on the pedal parts of every piece I practice. I do this at a large organ in a local church. I isolate the parts first and listen carefully and repeat. I then attempt to memorize, although that is s long process. All of this is a labor of love.

Every day people are longing to escape from physical boundaries such as poverty, injustice, handicaps or generational curses. While other are facing mental or emotional barriers that are limiting and restricting them to live a life of freedom. One of the most demoralizing struggles we face is feeling restricted and bound by our current reality. What are you trying to escape from? Even though you feel trapped, our God is faithful and always provides you a way to break free and escape from what ever binds and restricts you. 1 Corinthians 10:13

Introduction This is the Northern 90 Podcast with Pat Sweet, Episode 6. Welcome to the Northern 90 CPL Podcast, covering the beautiful game in the great white north. For more Canadian Premier League content, head over to Northern90.ca. That’s Northern Nine Zero dot ca. Welcome Hello Canada, and welcome to another episode of the Northern 90 Podcast. I’m your host, Pat Sweet. Today, we’re going to talk about the various leagues and competitions that CPL teams are going to be part of this year, what they'll be like, and why they're important. Before we get to that; however, let’s take a minute to go through the week’s CPL news:   CanPL News Pacific FC signs Marcel de Jong Quebec committee to study PSLQ Diego Forlan has had serious talks to join CanPL. CSB signs a 10-year official media partnership agreement with Mediapro to give the global soccer giant. This gives them global and domestic rights to the CPL, the Canadian Championship, Canadian Men's and Women's national team home games, and League 1 Ontario games. I'll be going through this in detail next episode, and as you'll learn, I think this is great news. Main Content In today's episode, I'll talk about all the different hardware that Canadian teams will be competing for throughout the year. Canadian Championship What: The top competition among Canadian teams from all professional leagues Who: All Canadian MLS teams, Canadian Premier League teams, USL's Ottawa Fury, and the champion from Ontario League 1 (Vaughn Azzuri) and the Premiere Ligue de Soccer du Quebec's champion (AS Blainville). Format Three home and away qualifying rounds. Winner on aggregate moves on Schedule: First games are on May 15 and the final match is on September 25. Trophy: Voyageurs cup, named for the Voyageurs supporter's group who created the tournament in 2008. Historic winners: TFC - 7x Impact de Montreal: 3x Vancouver Whitecaps FC: 1x What's new? New format with several more teams than before: all the CanPL teams are new, other than FCE. What's interesting The fact that CanPL teams are in this year is interesting There's a great deal of controversy over the seeding. Valour FC, FCE, and Forge FC all got buys into the second qualifying round by virtue of having signed up for the league first. Very strange. CanCon: Each team needs to field at least three Canadian starters. Why is this important Hardware The winner gets a birth in the CONCACAF Champions League - one of two ways to get in. CONCACAF League What Launched in 2017 The top club competition for clubs from the Carribean and Central America Until now... Who 22 Clubs from Belize, Canada, Carribean, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. Format A preliminary round will be played amongst 12 teams, including one team from the Canadian Premier League The preliminary round will be home and away The six winners will then compete against the top nine Central American clubs, and the runner up in the Carribean Club Championship. This is the round of 16 Then, it's home and away up to and including the final. Video from CONCACAF explaining the format. Schedule Preliminary round begins in July Final is played in November Historic Winners Olimpia (Honduras) x1 Herediano (Costa Rica) x1 What's new The inclusion of a Canadian Premier League Team Expanded to 22 teams The top six teams are given births into the CONCACAF Champion's League for 2020 - not just the champion What's interesting Controversy over the Canadian team that gets to go. It will be determined by the best home and away record between Forge FC, FCE, and Valour FC. Again, there's been quite a bit of weeping and gnashing of teeth on this. It's another chance to sneak into CONCACAF Champions League for Canadian Premier League teams. It gives us a chance to compare ourselves to international competition It gives us the chance to see teams we wouldn't normally. It's weird that Canadian teams will be part of a league designed for Central American and Carribean teams. Travel will be a major factor Why it's important More meaningful matches A chance to get into Champions League Exciting to be able to compare ourselves to others. League Championship What The Canadian Premier League Championship Who The seven CPL teams Format We have no idea Commish Clanachan has said the format will be unique to North America, but used elsewhere in the world. Duane Rollins reportedthat everything he's hearing is that the league will adopt an Apertura and Clausura system, with a possible SuperCup at the end, which would pit the winners of each of the two season's halves. Schedule We already know this - late April to the end of October Other Competitions For whatever team wins the Canadian Championship, they get to go to the CONCACAF Champions League There may be other minor trophies that could be won. I could see supporters' groups creating cups for the Ontario and Alberta derbies. What do you think? Tell me: which competitions are you most interested in? What will offer the best competition? What do you expect? Leave your comments in the comments section at the bottom.   Mailbag First and foremost - thank you to Febrian and Dan who both left comments on the last post to correct my mistake. I said that York 9 FC, Forge FC, and FC Edmonton were going to have the chance to go to CONCACAF league - that was wrong. It's not York 9 FC, it's Valour FC. There was some really interesting conversation on Reddit about the last episode and my proposed promotion/ relegation scheme. Reddit user Feb914 had some really interesting ideas, so thanks for that! If you have something to say, and I know you do, write to me @NorthernNinety on Twitter, or leave a comment at the bottom of the show notes at Northern90.ca/episode6. You could also try joining the Northern 90 Supporters' group, where we have a private Facebook group to talk about the league. It's totally free, and it's easy to sign up. Just head over to northern90.ca/join.   Credits Featured Image Stocksnap.io: calendar Intro music Move Like Thisby spinningmerkaba (c) copyright 2011 Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (3.0) license.

The big topics of the week include Virgil Abloh's OFF-WHITE x Converse Chuck Taylor, the last of "The Ten" pack to be released, Childish Gambino's tour de force of a music video: "This Is America," and a ton of discussion around the Met Gala.

It's that time of year again ALMOST30NATION. Booze, cookies, candy, holiday craziness in general ... the temptations ARE REAL. That's why we brought in JESSICA SUCHAN, LA Holistic Nutritionist + Health Coach, to save us (and our booty's) from falling off the wagon this holiday season. Not only is this episode going to help navigate you through the next few months, but Jess (of Body Bliss by Jess) is all about navigating you through your food journey, emotionally, physically, spiritually, scientifically, etc. AKA you're gonna need a notebook. Maybe two. If you remember one of our OG Guests, Hormone Queen + Expert, Candace Burch, is actually the mother of Miss Jessica Suchan. Body Bliss Coaching definitely runs in their fam bam. But Jess had a long and unique story on her road to being a health coach. Because her family was health-oriented from the get-go (we're talking buying almond milk before anyone even knew that existed), it was engraved in her brain being active and eating well. It wasn't until high school when she quit sports and continued to eat the junk food she had been consuming for years, that she started going down an unhealthy path with food. In order to loose weight, she restricted herself, binging on the weekends, saving up to buy "the ab belt", and weight loss pills. When Jess got to college, everything just escalated. Her story continues with ... Jess's first job out of college as a nutrition coach for an extremely restricting weight loss company, while she was still dealing with her own demons LOSING + GAINING 40 POUNDS several different times being surrounded by a family that was 100% dedicated to a restricting diet how RESENTMENT was a key part of her battle with food the word "DIET" versus "LIFESTYLE" moving to LA with a "Devil Wears Prada" boss, triggering her former habits, feeling sick and exhausted all of the time how her stressful + unhealthy lifestyle in LA caused constant migraines + how a program for ending migraines saved her life her 3AM OPIPHANY for becoming a HEALTH COACH + quitting her crazy media job "90% of diets fail" - because it's a "quick fix" how EVERYTHING - food, relationships, home life, jobs, self-care - is a piece of the puzzle to create a healthy life "SUGAR COATING YOUR LIFE" - the biological addicting power of sugar what happens when you DON'T eat sugar? THE COMPARISON GAME - it's twisted, it's nasty, and it's not okay

A Biblical Description of Every Piece of the Nativity Scene and It's Importance! Bible Believing Preaching at Indian Gap Baptist Church-- Indian Gap, Texas www.indiangapbaptist.com Pastor Keegan Hall

Elevate your Mind   A study at the Montreal Neurological Institute at McGill University suggests that listening to music "can arouse feelings of euphoria and craving," even stimulating dopamine release in the brain — a chemical affiliated strongly with pleasure, reward and even addiction. Not that I needed the emprical data set to believe it, but countless studies do show that music has a LASTING impact on the brain plasticity.. There you go... save yourself a session and treat your brain to some free therapy :) Semi-chilled, slightly dark, resolutely progressive set.. Musical food for your brain cells. Find the right setting, load the set up and let your brain do the rest..   In many a way, where classical meets electronica.. Set got scratchy towards the final tracks.. It happens.. Pesky downbeats...   Playlist:     2015 The Bridge (Shur-I-Kan Remix. vs Original Mix). Jody Wisternoff feat. Sian Evans 2014 Till I Come (Nick Devon & Inner Rebels Remix). Chris Karpas, Mass Digital 2010 Aegean Sea (Nikos Diamantopoulos Remix). G-Pal 2014 Summer Fun (Slam Duck Remix). RDUO         2013 Divine (Vincenzo Remix). The Saint Petersburg Disco Spin Club, Eleonora 2014 Till I Come (Original Mix). Chris Karpas, Mass Digital 2015 Every Single Piece (Original Mix). Redondo, Bolier feat. She Keeps Bees 2014 Waves (Robin Schulz Remix). Mr. Probz 2014 Click, Search (Jody Wisternoff Remix). Danalog 2014 Walk With Me (Original Mix). Jetlag feat. Esther 2014 The Sin (Original Mix). Bee Hunter 2014 Golden Sky (Sons of Maria Remix). Passenger 10, feat. Lika Morgan 2005 Lost Soul (Afterlife New Mix). Bliss   Highlights: "The Bridge" from Jody Wisternoff popped out a few weeks ago in Matt Darey, Chicane and even Pete Tong top ten. Perfect blend of progressive and classical. Love the track so much that you are getting a double dose.. Beautiful just beautiful "Till I Come": appearing twice (at lest you know the set is unedited and exactly as it came out of the mixer).. Needed the first remix to set the darkish nocturnal mood and the second one because it is perfectly produced. And yes the smal vocal sample is from the ATB classic.. "Aegean Sea" from Nikos Diamontopoulos. Very fine, very stuble work from an immense producers. This is a headphone track, so intricate it is.. "Summer Fun" old trancy feel, almost Moroderesque.. "Divine" from Russian producers SPDSC.. at the crossroads of progressive and nu disco.. because it was time to introduce some vocal (albe it dubbed). "Every Single Piece" from Redondo and Mr. Probz summer anthem "Waves".. when I first heard "Every Piece" I knew it needed to feature side by side with Waves.. Love the production and the "lightness" of it all.. Out of the darker side, into the dim light :) Another Jody Wisternoff tune with Click, Search.. The english born producer, half of the Way Out West outfit, is one out the most talented producers and songwriter of the 21st century progressive scene. "Walk with Me" from Jetlag Prod. (Belgium).. New on the Anjunadeep label as the vibe wrote "this is how commercial house music should sound. Provocative, thoughtful but most importantly – good". "The Sin" from Bee Hunter.. A tactfully produced progressive/trancy production, light and right in the vibe I was going for.. "Golden Sky" nice indie track with a massive remix from the Sons of Maria.. Just yum! Vocalist is Lika Morgan, can't wait to hear more from her. Wanted to finish the loop on a semi-classical track, hence dag up "Lost Soul" one of my favourite chill out tune.. Bliss from Bliss! I hope ( I know) I served you a very good selection of tracks with just so so mixing at times.. This one fell straight from the mixer and it looks I have much more in a similar vibe to come.   A bientôt mes amis.     Xtian        

With everyone and their grandma pumping out blog posts and ebooks galore, it takes a lot of effort to get your content in front of the right people.   On this episode of Call To Action, we speak to Shopify's Tommy Walker, about his open letter to content marketers.
