We should take inspiration from people who have fought huge constraints and broken barriers despite the obstacles in their way -- and sometimes because of them.Welcome to Episode 90 of Everything is Everything, a weekly podcast hosted by Amit Varma and Ajay Shah.In this episode, Amit takes us through a few inspiring stories of how a few pioneers used their constraints to break new ground.TABLE OF CONTENTS: 00:00 Packaging00:13 Intro: We are Stupid AND Creative02:40 Chapter 1: Joni Mitchell Plays Guitar10:09 Chapter 2: Frida Kahlo Won't Be Stopped18:23 Chapter 3: Dr Seuss Has 50 Words32:23 Chapter 4: Fosbury was Not a Flop42:40 Chapter 5: Some More StoriesFor magnificent, detailed, juicy show notes, click here.
Today's podcast highlights coach, author, and educator Dan John. A best-selling author in strength training and fitness, including works such as “Never Let Go”, “Mass Made Simple”, and “Easy Strength Omni-Book.” Dan excels at transforming complex concepts into practical insights and has been a frequent guest on the show. He is one of my most significant influences in how I approach coaching and training. As I move forward in my coaching and training journey, I increasingly appreciate Dan's methods and wisdom in deeper and more impactful ways. If you want to excel at athletics, then you can never, ever, get too far from the actual day-to-day and week-to-week process of training that unfolds over time. On today's episode, Dan talks about navigating the peaks and valleys of performance along with managing daily training and competitive expectations. He also touched on the importance of athlete autonomy, and “figuring it out”, and trends in sports training. Ultimately, Dan speaks to the heart of that consistent, long-haul process by which champions are made, which is the core message of today's episode. Dan is a legend, and it's always fantastic to have him on the show. Today's episode is brought to you by TeamBuildr's Gym Studio and Athletic Development Games.

Power curl, I can teach you in seconds." - Dan John (00:20:34) "One of the problems, at least in my world, is that we often think that, you know, if a leads to b and b leads to c, then, well, let's drop b and just go a to c. And it doesn't always happen. Sometimes when you're trying to accomplish something, you still have to stick with all the steps in the system." - Dan John (00:27:46) "George Sheehan in his run, in one of his books, Doctor Sheehan on Running, I think it is. You know, he talks about how athletes live in the pure present. We have no past, we have no future. They're like. And he equates poets, artists, children and the elderly. They all live in the pure present. There is no, there's no yesterday, there's no tomorrow." - Dan John (00:32:57) "Those workouts that are the, you just get in, you do your sets and reps, you walk out the door, you salute yourself for that effort. I actually think those are the ones that make champions." - Dan John 01:00:45 “One of the things a lot of athletes start to do is they turn off. Because if I give you everything, then I'm your wizard, I'm your Gandalf, your Merlin, I'm your Moses, I'm your prophet, I'm the answer to all your questions. But what makes an athlete great is when they go, what made Dick Fosberry great in the high jump? What made him great? Well, he thought for himself to the point that his coach at Oregon State, Frank Morris, did everything he could to stop Fosbury from drinking, from jumping that way. And then later, of course,
If at first you don't succeed, try again. A common sentiment, but particularly relevant for athletes, and one Hamish Kerr is familiar with. The Olympic high jump gold medallist told Mike Hosking that his first attempt at the Fosbury flop left him with a bloody nose, as he hit his nose against his knee on the way over. Kerr's come a long way since that first jump, and now his goal is to leap 2.4 meters – four centimetres higher than his medal winning 2.36 meters. “For me it's just about getting stronger and faster and that's something we really worked on this year,” he told Hosking. “Probably the most we've done of that in my whole career, and that's, that's why I've done so well.” The world record is 2.45 meters, and if he continues the way he does, Kerr thinks the goal is within reach. “If I have another four years of that, then there's no reason why I wouldn't be getting better.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on The KOKO Show the boys bask in the ethereal light of back-to-back Wallabies victories over the willing Welsh, with the main focus being getting lit and talking Schmidt. As the Wallabies remain on pace for complete rugby world domination, the crew also find some time to break down the other ‘BIG DAWG' Internationals from across the weekend, which saw the All Blacks pants England, Ireland put the Boks on the rocks and the Arigies fry up the French. With all this global footy lovin' going on, we thought it would be fitting to bring in a guest that has faced all these foes and has come out the other side still baby faced and bushy tailed. This fella has played over 90 caps for Wales, he is a Six Nations Champion and has represented the Lions on six occasions. He is the headgear wearing hottie, the Bancyfelin bruiser and the vixen from the Valleys, it is of course Jonathan ‘Fox' Davies. Plus, thanks to our headline sponsor Polo Ralph Lauren brought to you by our beautiful friends at Myer, the lads are looking luminous, luscious and quite simply lovable in another stylish installment of ‘Match Fit'. We know we are too generous, but when you think we couldn't fit any more into this bloody show, we somehow find enough room to squeeze in the world's greatest pie and a little bit of Quiz action. That's right thanks to Four'N Twenty for sponsoring the KOKO Quiz and not only do they make pies that are 100% Aussie Beef, they are also 100% bloody delicious.So, instead of taking a long walk off a short jetty, just throw on your most luxurious activewear, Fosbury flop onto your favourite ottoman and just let the dulcet tones of four half pissed lunatics try and tell you what happened this week in the world of rugby. That's right, it's time for Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

Powerlifters use techniques to milk every last kilo out of their bench press, including wide grips, tightly wound wrist wraps, leg drive, and – the most hated technique in the comment section – an arched-back to reduce the range of motion. Indeed, it can get so heated in the comments it likely even influenced an IPF rule change last year. But how many kilos does an arch really give you? How many bench pressers did this rule change impact, and was there really a need for the rule changes? Further, why do we apply a different standard for what is considered “cheating” to different lifts or athletic movements, like technical manipulation in high jump, or weightlifting? In this episode you'll get the full complement of the Iron Culture themes: we discuss the current culture around the IPF rule change and contemporary perspectives on arched bench press, the history of the clean and press in Olympic weightlifting up to 1972 which has some very interesting parallels, and finally a recently published study which attempted to quantify how much an arch increases bench press 1RM. 00:00 Intro to an episode about when Powerlifting was Powerlifting 03:33 The good old IPF and their regulations 08:40 The bench press rule change 15:23 The motivating factor for the rule change 20:01 Trexler's technique and thoughts on the rules Barbend article: https://barbend.com/ipf-bench-press-rule-change-2023/ 26:22 The history of Olympic weightlifting and Powerlifting and the change in rules 38:39 The Fosbury flop and the perception of different movements and innovations 44:52 Athletes finding ways to maximise performances within rules 57:16 A recent study on arching in the bench press Bartolomei 2024 Flat-Back vs. Arched-Back Bench Press: Examining the Different Techniques Performed by Power Athletes https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38551927/ 1:05:38 The nature of the fragile ego and the final point on the perspective of the spectator

Wow! How exciting to start off the year with such an impactful interview! Bobbi was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in October 2021 with an A1c of 17.8. Right away, she knew that she needed to make some major changes. She immediately cut out sugar and adopted a low-carb diet. Then, in January 2023, she found intermittent fasting. Also, around that time, she met her now partner, Keith. Keith is a big influence in the intermittent fasting community and he helped her to adopt this lifestyle. Through diet and IF, Bobbi has been able to get her A1c down to 6.3, which is just amazing. In addition, she has been able to lose around 50lbs. Just an incredible story! I hope you enjoy it!

Madeleine Bunbury is an English equine artist who paints life portraits of horses and ponies. At just 28, Madeleine is aspiring to follow in the footsteps of her idol, George Stubbs, aligning with other great equine painters, such as Agasse, Munnings and Herring. Madeleine was born on the island of Mustique in 1995, one of four children; her mother Lotty is a fashion designer and her father Michael, a doctor. She grew up in an an island playground and from an early age sketching and painting was instinctive, and more accessible than riding ponies which she dreamed of. It was when she began her education at boarding school in England that she was able to indulge herself and become a horse-mad teenager taking every opportunity to ride. Her love of horses became the catalyst to her initial plan to become a veterinarian but she had to abort that idea once she failed the required science exams. It was then that she decided on a career in art with the confidence that this was something for which she had a talent. With the guidance of an artistic uncle and aunt, Madeleine spent three years studying traditional portraiture at the Charles Cecil Studios in Florence, Italy. It was to prove the launching pad for her to embark on a career as an equine artist and she was soon making a livelihood painting horse portraits. Madeleine can be found either in her studio in Fosbury, Wiltshire or traveling to horses across the UK and around the world. Her latest project is a series of 16 breeds of British native horses and ponies which, as well as producing very large paintings will also be a coffee book, and perhaps a documentary.Playlist: Eminem- Lose Yourself (Gets me out of bed and revved for the day)Claude Debussy - Claire de lune (The first piece I learnt to play on the piano)Chopin - Nocturne no.20 in C-Sharp Minor (so melancholy and beautiful to paint to) Destiny's Child - Independent Woman (after various boyfriends let me down this is how I feel) Favorite artists:Isabella WatlingDaisy SimsHilditch HenriettaAbel-SmithEleanor Cardozo Madeleine's website: https://www.bunburyart.com/Instagram: @bunbury_equine_art Host: Chris StaffordFollow @theaartpodcast on InstagramThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4769409/advertisement

Mexico City, Olympic Games, 1968. The stadium is packed, the wider world looks on via TV coverage. Everywhere there's an air of expectancy but also an awareness that at such high altitude it's going to be hard for athletes to beat their best. Records are there to be broken, you have to hope for something special.And in the high jump event they weren't disappointed. The record for men's high jump had hovered around 2.23 m for several years. But a young 21-year-old was about to change that; Dick Fosbury, representing the USA broke this with a height of 2.24 m and won the gold medal. The ‘Fosbury flop' as it quickly became known opened up new possibilities for the sport; within ten years it had become the dominant mode for all jumpers and helped move the world record to 2.45 m which was set in 1993 by Javier Sotomayor. These days anyone attempting the high jump has come to resemble the ‘fish flopping on the deck of a boat' as one newspaperman described Fosbury's Mexico model.What Fosbury's feat reminds us of is the power of reframing in innovation. Innovation can take place anywhere along a continuum from doing what we do better — incremental — to doing something completely different — radical. And it can cover what we offer the world — product or service — and the ways we create a deliver that offering — process. That gives us plenty to keep us busy in our innovation day.But sometimes we can reframe, look at what we're doing in a different way, identify novel approaches.You can find a transcript of this podcast hereAnd a video version hereIf you'd like to explore more innovation stories, or access a wide range of resources to help work with innovation, then please visit my website here.You can find a rich variety of cases, tools, videos, activities and other resources - as well as my innovation blog.Or subscribe to my YouTube channel here

The man who changed the high jump forever, Dick Fosbury, has passed away aged 76. The American developed an alternative technique to the 'scissor kick' used by athletes, going on to win a gold medal at the 1968 Olympics. His unique way of clearing the bar soon became the technique all high jumpers used and the term Fosbury Flop was coined. David Ford spent time with Fosbury as his acupuncturist. He talks to Jesse about him and his legacy.

In 1968, American high jumper Dick Fosbury introduced a new way to compete in the high jump. His new technique worked so well that he won an Olympic gold medal, and within a few years, everyone used his method of high jumping. Fosbury's innovation isn't the only one in the track and field world. There have been several other technique innovations in other events, which have been shown dramatically improve performance. Learn about the track and field techniques which would smash world records (if they weren't illegal) on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Robert Fosbury is an emeritus astronomer at the European Southern Observatory and an honorary professor at the Institute of Ophthalmology at University College London. For 26 years, Bob worked at the European Space Agency as part of their collaboration with NASA on the Hubble Space Telescope. He joined this initiative in 1985, more than 5 years before launch. During the latter part of this period, Bob served on NASA's Ad Hoc Science Working Group and ESA's Study Science Team as they developed the instrument concepts for the James Webb Space Telescope, the next-generation space observatory.-Since then, Bob has become an integral part within the Institute of Ophthalmology at UCL with his unique perspective on light and its interactions with the earth's atmosphere. His interdisciplinary contributions to this team at UCL have lead to new hypotheses developing, particularly surrounding the beneficial effects of specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light and the detrimental effects of the narrow spectrum blue light that is emitted from modern lighting fixtures and appliances.

Di che cosa parliamo quando parliamo di innovazione? Dietro questa parola abusata vi sono percorsi concreti, tortuosi e affascinanti. Dalla forchetta al kalashnikov, dal mouse allo spaghetti western, alcune delle intuizioni che hanno cambiato le nostre vite emergono da processi collettivi, non riconducibili all'intuizione di un genio isolato. Svolte non solo tecnologiche ma anche concettuali, come la sequenza QWERTY sulle tastiere che tutti usiamo quotidianamente, o come il salto alla Fosbury. Dalla cultura alla tecnica, dallo sport al cinema e alla tavola, il racconto curioso e istruttivo - a cui anche il pubblico del Festival della Mente sarà invitato a contribuire - di piccole svolte diventate grandi cambiamenti.
In our 43rd "Deming Lens" episode, host Tripp Babbitt shares his interpretation of wide-ranging aspects and implications of Dr. Deming's theory of management. This month he looks at Management Theories contrasting Frederick Taylor and the work of W. Edwards Deming.

Edwards Deming. Tripp Babbitt: [00:00:31] Hi, I'm Tripp Babbitt, hosts of the Deming Insitute podcast, and in the last Deming Lent, the 40 second episode, I talked about Frederick Taylor and scientific management and things of that sort and in essence, brought in the book Deming's Profound Changes, coauthored by one of the members of the Deming Institute Advisory Council. And it's an important book. I've mentioned it before in previous episodes. I've talked about this, but I think it's from the perspective of how a manager thinks. I think it's helpful to understand kind of what's being taught in universities and colleges versus what Dr. Deming was talking about. And I I my personal admiration for this book has to do with being able to differentiate between what Frederick Taylor did in the early nineteen hundreds and what Dr. Deming proposed in his system of profound knowledge that he wrote in 1992. And we're talking about, to me, a huge difference. In matter of fact, the the difference I use are a way to describe it is the Fosbury flop. Tripp Babbitt: [00:02:10] You know, Fosbury the Fosbury flop is the way everybody does the high jump today. But when it first came out in 1968 at the Olympics, it was something very new. Tripp Babbitt: [00:02:22] So I want to walk through these things as this episode be a little bit longer. But I want to walk through these eight things that I ended the last episode with. And they are were the flaws of Taylorism. And I'm going to take you through kind of three levels for each of these things. Tripp Babbitt: [00:02:42] One is how Taylor the floor of Taylor's thinking what the book Deming's for Profound Changes talks about in terms of what's referenced as Neo Taylorism, which is kind of taking what Taylor did in the nineteen hundreds or early nineteen hundreds and the way management has kind of played it out in today's world. And I think these things, even though that means profound changes, a little bit dated now too, it's still relevant and kind of where we've been and kind of how Dr. Deming saw things. So let's just start and I'll walk through these and you'll see some recurring themes in here, as I did years ago. Tripp Babbitt: [00:03:30] And I've focused in on some of the overlaps of the thinking as far as the flaws go. So let's just jump into them. So the first one was belief in management control as the essential precondition for increased productivity. That was the flaw associated with Frederick Taylor and his thinking and the way this is played out. Tripp Babbitt: [00:03:57] You think in terms of Neo Taylor ism or the way it's played out today is that your boss is your customer. I mean, they are the ones that, in essence, tell you what to do on a daily basis. They're the ones who judge the judge and jury of your work. And this is pretty widespread, I would say, in most organizations. Tripp Babbitt: [00:04:22] Now, the way Deming viewed things was that management job is not to control and that management's job was to coach and to provide methods and tools. And for me, the emphasis on methods really struck home because Method's gives you a way to achieve what you're trying to accomplish. And not many there's not a lot of focus in management today on methods. It's more what type of leader are you? Do you have emotional intelligence and things of that sort? And what I think is really missing is then I think those are soft skills. And I'm not saying they're not important. Tripp Babbitt: [00:05:05] They're very important. But there's also the hard skills or what I reference is hard skills, which are methods to do things like innovate and, you know, the ways to look at data and ways to develop your synthetic thinking. But we'll talk about some of those a little bit later. Tripp Babbitt: [00:05:24] The second thing was belief in the possibility of optimal processes and. The needlestick way, and I think you could even go back to Frederick Taylor himself, and so there was always one best way to do something and everybody's always looking for best practices or, oh, the competitor did this. And we've got to copy that because there have been so successful. Sometimes they're been successful with it. But the impression is that what they're doing is cool. Tripp Babbitt: [00:05:52] And so we've got to copy what somebody else is doing. And Deming was his advocacy was for there was always a better way and that that mindset always exists. There's always a way to do something better. And for instance, technology can help us see new things, but it doesn't necessarily have to do them or accomplish them. So that's one of the big differences then between Deming and Taylor, Tripp Babbitt: [00:06:23] The third thing, a narrow view of process improvement. Now we get into this subject of synthetic thinking a little bit. And Neil Taylorism is management reorganizations were use our use today as a substitute for actual improvement or in the book they reference process improvement. I think it's just improvement in general. But this is in essence, what the book said from a Neotel Ristic standpoint. Dr. Deming was about process improvement. And I like to distinguish greatly at this point something I've learned over the years, which is process improvement. Tripp Babbitt: [00:07:07] The way that it's looked at today is far less effective than systemic improvement. And this means that you have to become a synthetic thinker and understand that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts and that many organizations are, you know, the same process improvement and Deming. Tripp Babbitt: [00:07:28] But what we really want to do in order to become effective is achieve systemic improvement to make the hole better. So this is a good Segway into the fourth thing, which is low level sub optimization instead of total system improvement. Tripp Babbitt: [00:07:50] So there's this recurring theme now of systemic improvement, or I like to reference synthetic thinking that you need in order to improve an entire system. Tripp Babbitt: [00:08:04] And the Neo-Tayloristic view is and we see this in organizations all the time, probably have it in your organization, are quotas or targets for individuals and teams and departments and things of that sort. So this is, again, breaking the parts down and trying to optimize each of the pieces within an organization that you cannot contrast that against Dr. Deming's thinking and the story or the way to convey this. I think best that people can kind of get is when he used an orchestra and that an orchestra. Tripp Babbitt: [00:08:42] Doesn't have a group of 150 primadonnas trying to play their own solos. They all have their moment or maybe they never have their moment, but they all know what their role is within trying to create music that's pleasing to the ear. And and along with that, because you are able to get hundred and fifty people to cooperate in order to achieve the aim of creating beautiful music, you know, everybody wins.There's a satisfaction associated with the whole system operating well. Tripp Babbitt: [00:09:22] The fifth thing is the cause of defects in a Tayloristic mindset is people, you know, oh, we've got to find somebody to blame and you know, somebody and this is very, very prevalent within organizations. And so because of that and the Neil Taylor mistake or the more modern application of Taylor's thinking, we see all of these worker motivation schemes. And this this can be distinguished from Deming and synthetic thinking or systems thinking that defects are from the system and not people. And Dr. Deming's favors a famous percentage was 94 percent of the defects are from the system and only six percent is from the individual or special special causes or events. Tripp Babbitt: [00:10:18] The sixth thing, separation of planning and doing neo Taylorism again, separation of management from the workplace in the front line is still even today. Unless you're a small organization, will see management will be on some floor, maybe upper floor of an organization and they don't really come into contact with the people, you know, where the work is being done or with front line people. Tripp Babbitt: [00:10:46] And Dr. Deming's view was that there was a need for management to understand the processes that they manage, that you needed to understand the work that you were managing as opposed to just collecting data on what's going on. And that we need to value the contribution and value created by the worker and that's that is a huge shift for a lot of organizations, is just that we're talking in terms of culture change. This is one of the things that I see organizations struggle with a lot, because that isn't the reason I became an executive or a manager, was to, you know, be around, you know, the front line workers doing stuff. I can manage them with the data and, you know, process charts and things of that sort. Tripp Babbitt: [00:11:37] The seventh thing, failure to recognize systems and communities in the organization that Neotel Ristic or modern view of this has worked is viewed individually instead of collaboratively. Tripp Babbitt: [00:11:54] And this whole collaboration piece when we talked in terms of the orchestra comes to mind when you think of the systems which you're involved with. And there's a couple of things I pull from this. One is abdication of management's responsibility for the welfare of employees. We see this played out from an artistic standpoint. Tripp Babbitt: [00:12:17] We get layoffs, we get rank and yank, although we're seeing less of that nowadays and at its height during the 90s and even the early 2000s. And, you know, we got to contrast this with Dr. Deming's view of, you know, what is best for society, what is the greater good, what is really the aim here where everybody has an opportunity to win? Tripp Babbitt: [00:12:46] The eighth thing is view of workers as interchangeable by bionic machines. The need tailor a Ristic view is failure to recognize the major effect of the system on an employee's performance. And this is one of the things I think when I'm discussing with management or executives about their organization and their performance is that they because they're not synthetic thinking is something you have to develop within your organization. I don't think you just say you need to understand the whole and people get that they need excuse me. They need to do it. Why? They're looking at their own organization. And so Deming is a promote promotes basically that the system, as I mentioned before, the 94 percent is what you need to focus in on. Tripp Babbitt: [00:13:44] And and by focusing in on the six percent or even just the individual, you're going to lose out what gains that you get of systemic thinking. And we hit this again, we're talking in terms of process improvement problem. And I and I wish Dr. Deming would have used the word systemic improvement process improvement. Again, we're talking about analytic thinking, of kind of trying to optimize the pieces, the individual, the team, and not understanding how the whole might gain and that sometimes different departments may need to give a little as opposed to get. Tripp Babbitt: [00:14:30] And sometimes the way this plays out from a Neo-Tayloristic standpoint is we have profit centers and maybe not. You might go so far I'd never heard it talked in terms of, you know, the individual must show profit. But certainly in terms of individual departments, I've heard of, you know, H.R. departments and finance departments have to show that they're profitable. I don't understand the thinking there because they're they're they're enablers. They are not the ones that create value for the customer. Tripp Babbitt: [00:15:06] But those are the eight things. Deming's view was very different. Tripp Babbitt: [00:15:11] And that's why I say that Dr. Deming and his system of profound knowledge is a huge leap from where Frederick Taylor taken us and how we've made it. Tripp Babbitt: [00:15:26] Tried to make it better by what we're teaching in universities and, you know, Dr. Deming's message still isn't broadly taught at universities and certainly far less understood by universities and what what he did. And so this offers huge opportunity, I think, for an organization, you know, trying trying to compete in a global marketplace. This that is this week's Deming Lens. And we will talk to you next month. Tripp Babbitt: [00:16:01] Hi, this is Tripp Babbitt. One way that you can help the Deming Institute. And this podcast is by providing a rating on Apple podcasts.

.. cela va sans dire pour beaucoup d’entre vous (à travers un sondage effectué sur mon compte Twitter..) et pour l’ensemble - enfin disons au moins une majorité - des aficionados de foot à travers la planète je suppose.. perso je pense comme eux mais après si l’on gratte un peu, si l’on se penche sur les dires et autres études des grands spécialistes du sujet (le sujet des génies..), on réalise que c’est peut-être plus complexe que ça.. sans compter quelques tweets qui ont ici et là fait vaciller certains de mes appuis, car entre talent, fut-il immense ici, et génie, la marge est parfois c’est vrai très étroite.. finalement.. Alors entre Panenka et Fosbury, et en passant par le fil à couper le beurre - Maradona, Cruyff etc.. aussi.. - nous allons décrypter tout cela, et à la toute fin de ce podcast 74 Bis vous verrez bien si ma position a évolué et de fait si mon verdict a finalement changé.. ou pas..

Investments, Musikrecht und die Welt der Musikverlage – in dieser Episode des Redfield Podcasts geht es um moderne Geschäftsmodelle in der Musikwelt und um eine neue Idee mit Songrechten Geld zu verdienen. Podcast-Gast Lukas Rössler erzählt im Gespräch mit Alexander Schröder von seiner frisch gestarteten Finanzierungsplattform Whaaat, die Künstler mit Investoren zusammenbringt. Der Österreicher ist selber als Musiker und Produzent aktiv. 2010 gründete er die New Media Agentur Fosbury und arbeitete bereits mit Kunden wie Nike, Sony Music Austria, Oracle oder Strabag Real Estate. Im Sommer 2020 geht es mit den Finanzierungen für die ersten Künstler über die neue Plattform los. Investoren wie Musikfirmen, aber auch Fans des Künstlers können Anteile an Songrechten erwerben; die Tantiemen erhält der Künstler. So wird die Vision einer modernen Finanzierung, die der Künstler dann zum Beispiel für Marketing, PR oder Produktionen nutzen kann, mit dem traditionsreichen Verlagsgeschäft kombiniert. Langfristig will Rössler verschiedene Modelle rund um Whaaat aufzubauen und über das Verlagsrecht hinausdenken. Im Podcast geht es außerdem um interessante Startups im Musikbereich, um effektive Datenerfassung und wie man das Musikverlagsgeschäft generell modernisieren könnte. www.whaaat.eu www.redfield-records.de
When Dick Fosbury won the 1968 Olympic Gold Medal in the High Jump, he did it using his innovative method: the Fosbury Flop. His new technique revolutionized how jumpers have summited the bar ever since. Fosbury's teammate at Oregon State, John Radetich, became the first person to set a world record using the Fosbury Flop. Radetich jumped 7 feet, 4.75 inches in 1973 to break the Indoor World Record, and three years later set another record, jumping 7 feet, 6 inches.Radetich went on to work for 29 years at the Albany Boys & Girls Club and coached various track & field teams as well. He may call his athletic prowess "just jumping over a stick," but we talk about what he learned from his athletic career and how everything would have been different had he not come to Oregon State.----------My friend and former OSU wrestler Christian Robertson helped me set up this podcast.

Todos lo sabemos, 1968 es un año de contrastes, de luces y sombras. Los momentos sombríos son tenebrosos y los pasajes luminosos son prístinos. En octubre se conmemora otro acontecimiento relevante en el devenir histórico de México: la inauguración y celebración de los XIX Juegos Olímpicos en la cd de México. Un evento que marca un parteaguas en la historia visual de nuestro país. Primeros Juegos Olímpicos que contaron con una identidad visual, de la que derivó una robusta arquitectura visual. Un equipo de trabajo con múltiples integrantes bajo el comando del Arq. Pedro Ramírez Vázquez, en el siguiente nivel de mando estuvieron tanto el Arq. Eduardo Terrazas como la Sra. Beatrice Trueblood, coordinando a un gran grupo de creativos. Entre ellos tenemos a José Luis Ortiz Téllez, un joven diseñador, egresado de esta casa de estudios, de gran sensibilidad y capacidad de trabajo, mano derecha del famoso Lance Wyman, quien ventajosamente se ha adjudicado la autoría total de la creación de dicha identidad visual. Logo Mexico 68 Oficialmente conocidos como los Juegos de la XIX Olimpiada, fueron celebrados en la Ciudad de México, entre el 12 y el 27 de octubre de 1968. La Ciudad de México había sido candidata a los Juegos Olímpicos en 1956 y en 1960, sin embargo, en ambas ocasiones las candidaturas fracasaron al recibir un mínimo de votos durante la elección. Finalmente en 1963, la ciudad fue seleccionada como sede de los Juegos. A partir de ese momento se constituyó formalmente el Comité Organizador que trabajó de manera conjunta con el Gobierno Mexicano y algunas secretarías de Estado en la organización de los Juegos. Estos fueron los primeros Juegos organizados por un país en vías de desarrollo, por una nación hispanohablante y los primeros realizados en Latinoamérica. Fueron también los terceros celebrados en otoño y los primeros con controles antidopaje y de género. Además, hizo su aparición la Olimpiada cultural. Cuenta con grandes hitos dentro de las gestas olímpicas, como el del atleta norteamericano Bob Beamon, quien impuso una monumental marca en el salto largo con 8.90 metros. O el caso de Dick Fosbury, quien creó una innovadora técnica llamada “Fosbury flop”. Otro de ellos es el del corredor de velocidad norteamericano James Hines, quien en la final de los 100 metros planos logró un registro oficial de 9.95”. A decir del Comité Olímpico Internacional la candidatura de México a los Juegos Olímpicos de 1968 “se basó fundamentalmente en las instalaciones existentes y la experiencia en eventos anteriores”. El Comité Olímpico Mexicano designó en un principio al ex presidente Adolfo López Mateos, pero renunció en 1965 por razones de salud. En su reemplazo se eligió al Arq. Pedro Ramírez Vázquez, cuya visión integral permitió alcanzar niveles nunca antes vistos en la celebración de estos Juegos. El programa olímpico de esa época presentaba 20 competencias, en rememoración a los juegos celebrados en la antigüedad en la península Helénica, el Arq. Ramírez Vázquez propuso la creación de una Olimpiada cultural compuesta también de 20 eventos.

Filip dömer ogärna folk som valt en urspårad livsstil, som till exempel CNN-ankaret Richard Quest som härrom året hittades halvnaken i Central Park med ett halsband rund nacken knuten till sin penis och lite metamfetamin i fickan. Men när det kommer till mer stramt folk, till exempel sådana som kanske inte har lika hög tolerans för Richard Quest:iga-eskapader, de dömer Filip mer än gärna. Och så lite om Ronaldos trekanstsfrisyr, Fosbury-flopp samt Marlon Brandos brevlådeknullande.

Janet's equivalent of the Fosbury flop left US markets nervous ahead of the unscheduled release and positively underwhelmed after it! So where next for the major indices, and let's hope the FED don't flop again in December and finally get off the fence.
The reason why we find writing to be such a tedious task, is because we don't understand the barriers that get in our way. Instead, we write, edit, write, edit — and drive ourselves crazy. One of the ways to get over the barriers is to use the Captain Kirk and Mr Spock method. What is this method all about?

You look at the newspapers that day and there is the Los Angeles Times and they’re saying that he goes over the bar like a guy being pushed out off a 30-storey window. Then you flip to the next newspaper which is The Guardian and it says, “He is the curiosity of the team.” Then you pick up the magazine Sports Illustrated and it says, “He charges up from slightly to the left of center with a gait that may call to mind a two-legged camel.” We’re talking about Dick Fosbury here, the guy who first did the Fosbury flop. While all these newspapers and magazines seem to make fun of Dick Fosbury, it’s unlike he had a great opinion of himself either. It’s unlike Dick Fosbury was arguing with their comments because at college someone bet him that he couldn’t get over a leather chair. He couldn’t jump over that leather chair and he said he tried, but not only did he lose his bet but he also broke his hand in the crash landing. In 1968, when he arrived at the Mexico Olympics he was relatively unknown and yet days later he not only captured the imagination of the Mexican public, but also the rest of the world. He sailed over the bar at 2.24 meters, which is 7 feet and 4 inches. It wasn’t that he sailed over because that wasn’t the world record. It’s that he did it by overcoming the obstacle with his crazy jump which was called the Fosbury flop. What’s interesting about the Fosbury flop is that no one ever did that kind of flop before. No one ever tried to get over the bar in that manner. It was considered extremely weird, extremely camel-like and yet today it’s extremely weird to see people jumping over the bar as they did back in 1968. Today the Fosbury flop is the way people jump over a bar at the Olympics in any sports stadium. What Fosbury did was he looked at the obstacle and he said, “Let me get over this in another way because there’s no way I’m going to be able to do it the usual way.” That’s really what this podcast is all about. We’re going to look at writing and why we struggle with writing, why we have these obstacles with writing. If we go about it the way we’ve always done, that doesn’t seem to work for us because you’re going about it the same way that I used to do back in the year 2000 where I would look at the article and then try to write it and then spend a day, spend 2 days writing that article and getting very frustrated and not knowing what was going wrong. We have to look at the obstacle that bar and look at how we can over that bar in a completely different way. That’s what this podcast is going to cover. We’re going to cover 3 things. The first thing is about editing. The second thing is about preparation and the third is about the one word or the one term. As always, we’ll start with the first, which is editing. Part One: Editing I love making a rice dish called biryani. It is a dish meant for kings. It has all of these yummy elements. If you’ve ever eaten a biryani, you know exactly what I mean. Here’s how you go about making a biryani. You have to get all the things together, like spices and the yogurt and other stuff like saffron and ghee, which is a clarified butter. When you get all of those things together, you got some onions. In fact, you got a lot of onions and then you caramelised the onions. When all of that is done you, marinate it. A few hours later it’s time to cook the biryani. I put it all in a dish, which we call handi. You would call it a saucepan. Before I turn on the flame I have to do one very important thing. I have to seal the handi or the saucepan with dough so that it becomes like a pressure cooker and the meat cooks in it and the rice cooks in it and all the flavours cook within it and it’s all sealed you can’t get in. Did you notice the problem? Sure, you did. It was the dough. It sealed the vessel. There is no way to know whether the rice is cooked or the chicken is still raw. The dough prevents me from editing. Editing is the first big obstacle to writing. Why? Because the writer and the editor are 2 completely different people. The writer is like Captain Kirk; you watched Star Trek, didn’t you? The writer is like Captain Kirk and Captain Kirk has all these great ideas. He wants to go where no man has ever gone before and he is a bit out there. Then you have Spock and he needs to be logical and that’s how your editor acts every single time. We have these 2 people, 2 completely different people and they’re at log ahead with each other. What we do when we write is we put both of those people on the same seat. Of course they’re going to fight. Of course they’re going to continuously argue with each other and of course that’s your obstacle, isn’t it? You’re not going to get over that obstacle because you’re treating both of them as the same person when they were completely different. The first thing you’ve got to realise is that it’s not Captain Spock, it’s Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock. You’ve got to start with the writing process and then let it marinate and several hours later you have to bring in Mr. Spock. Just like the biryani, you’ve got to let that marination process take its own sweet time. You probably want to write at one part of the day and then one look at it maybe later in the day or even the next day. This is what I had to do when I first started out. I was not very good at writing. I was not very quick at writing. I would send my article to a friend and a client, whose name is Chris Ellington. Chris would look over it and then fix it and he had a million fixes and then it will come back and then I would send it out again this time to Rochelle. Rochelle would look at all the grammar and fix it and all of this editing process would drive me absolutely crazy plus there was my own creative output as it were. This is the process. There is the writer and the editor. There is this time in between and what we do is we make a Captain Spock out of it. Of course it doesn’t work and there is no reason why it should work, because editing and writing just do not mix. That’s our first-grade obstacle and we have to learn that we’re going to have to do thing differently, do a bit of a Fosbury flop if we want to get over that bar and write great content. This takes us to the second one and the second one is all about preparation. Part 2: Preparation On June 29, 2007, Pixar released a movie about a rat and it was called Ratatouille. It was a story about an inspiring chef called Linguini and her rat called Remy, a rat that loved to cook. Speaker 1: Animation is a very, very complicated business. There’s hundreds of people involved in the actual production. Speaker 2: Many things that we take for granted in real life are difficult to do in the computer. Speaker 3: Pixar is really very good at addressing complex problems. By far, this is the most complicated clothing that we’ve done. Speaker 4: We went to a special sequence on that with the character with Linguini jumps into the sand to try and save Remy. He comes out dripping wet and we had to try and figure out a way to get that look when claw sticks to the skin and you can see just a little bit of colour coming through it. Speaker 5: What do we do? We abused one of our poor coworkers. We make him dressed up in a chest outfit. We doused him with water and we filmed him. What does it look like? We’re on the clothing. Can you see it through to his skin? Where do the chips come off from his face? It’s our excuse to abuse coworkers actually not to think about it. Sean D’Souza: What you just heard in that clip is preparation, preparation and more preparation. The reason why Pixar has to do so much preparation is because they’re not amateurs. They have million dollar budgets and of course they’re wasting a lot of money. They’re also wasting time and they’re wasting energy. When you think about it, that’s exactly what we do when we sit down to write. We don’t create that moment of preparationor really that hour of preparation and that’s how you know the difference between an amateur and a professional. The amateur just sits down and begins to write. They sit at their computer and they decide, “I’m going to write an article today. I’m going to create a podcast today. I’m going to create a webinar.” The professional on the other hand sits down to plan. I was to listening to a podcast earlier today and there was this interview between Brian Orr and Jeff Brown. Jeff worked in the radio industry for many, many years and now he has his own podcast. He was talking about how people just show up on podcast and they start to ask questions and they don’t prepare and how all the preparation is critical. If you listen to Ira Glass on This American Life and he’s on videos on YouTube, he talks about the preparation and how finding the stories takes half the week even though they have so many people in their staff. We think, “We’re just business people. We just have to write an article. Let’s sit down and write,” and that’s not how professionals work. You are a professional when you sit down to write and therefore you have to sit down to plan. What are you going to plan? You’ve got to figure out what topic are you going to cover, what one word are you going to cover, what 3 sub-topics you’re going to cover or at least how you’re going to structure the article, how you’re going to structure this podcast. When I sit down to do this podcast, most of the work is done outside. Admittedly, the music takes a lot of time but the podcast takes only about 45 minutes to record and it takes me an hour and a half to put all the details together, sometimes longer. I’ll go to the cafe. I’ll sit don and I’ll put it all together. You can see a photograph of that. I’ll put it in the show notes. It takes a lot of preparation to create something that is more than average and that’s what professionals do. This is the obstacle that we run into. It’s not I don’t try to beat the system. I try it. I’ll show up here at 4am and I’ll try to record a podcast and then it’s 4:30 and 4:45 and then 5:30. It’s very, very frustrating and so I’ve given up. I’ve totally given up. Every time I want to record a podcast I will go to the cafe and sit there and plan. I don’t have the time that’s why I go and that’s why I plan and this is what professionals do. They plan before they execute. They get the ingredients, put the biryani in the fridge, let it marinate and then later they are cooking it. Amateurs? We just go there and we cook it right away as if something magical is going to happen. We’ve looked at 2 main obstacles and the first one was editing, the fact that we get Captain Spock together instead of having Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock. The second thing is this whole factor of preparation and how we want to bypass that process of marination. This takes us to the third part, which is the one word or the one term. Part 3: One Word This podcast started with the story about Dick Fosbury. You have to ask yourself, “Why did that story exist? What is the point of that story?” the story was about obstacles and overcoming those obstacles, but why did the story matter? The story mattered because of that one word or one term and in this case the one term is a different perspective. Right until that moment in Mexico when Dick Fosbury sailed over the bar like a 2-legged camel, there was only one perspective and that perspective was to jump over it, straddle over it. He went over in a completely different way. The one term is about different perspective and that’s how we look at the entire article. We didn’t go about how do we construct our article and what is the structure of the article, but we looked at things that stop us. We don’t realise that they’re stopping us and that is editing and preparation and the one word that one word or one term which is different perspective. It allows me to do both the preparation and the editing. When I’m preparing, I’m thinking of how can I have a different perspective on article writing. Then when I’m done and Mr. Editor has to show up, at point in time I’m going, “Did I do this? Did I actually adhere to the one word or one term?” In a way the one word or one term satisfies the needs of those fresh 2 guys, which is preparation and editing and he does so, so brilliantly. When you’re siting down to write something, create something ask yourself, “What is the one thing that I want to convey here? What is that endpoint?” Once you know the one word or one term you will be able to communicate in a way that you’ve never communicated before. You’d be able to edit it in a way that you’ve never done before. Can it be more than one word or one term? One term is a couple of words. Maybe you could stretch it to 3 words. The problem is that you may want to put in 3 words or 4 words or 5 words to describe your article and the further away you go from one word the more complicated it becomes. It’s very, very hard to then edit something or nail it down so find one word. Ask yourself, “What am I going to talk about today? Is it endeavour or is it scarcity or is it premium?” The point is once you get the one word and the one term that becomes a lot simpler and that’s really what we want. Summary That brings us to the end of this podcast. What did we cover today? We covered 3 things. The first thing was the factor of editing that the editor and the writer they’re 2 different people. They show up at different times of day, probably on different days as well. When you write and you edit on the same day or write and edit, write and edit, write and edit, thank you. You’re just frustrating yourself and driving yourselves completely crazy. Do not edit. Come back another day. Do not become Captain Spock. The second thing is the preparation. The professionals they don’t sit down to write. They don’t sit down to create. They sit down to plan. You need to go away somewhere. Plan, come back then you start to write. If you have to learn how to write, you can deconstruct say this piece because it’s there. It’s there in the show notes. You can deconstruct how it is created and then recreate it or you can do an article-writing course and learn how structure is built and how articles come together and how podcast come together and how … It’s all based on structure and once you understand the structure it’s just a matter of unfolding it like any language. The third thing that we covered was one word. The one word comes before you head out to the cafe, before you sit down to plan. It’s what am I going to cover today, what is that one thing that I want my audience to get. Once you know that and you should know that, then it’s very simple or rather a lot simpler to get to the end result. What’s the one thing that you can do today? The one thing that you should do today is just sit now and say, “I’m going to write an article. What is the one word that I’m going to cover?” If you’re not sure what you should do, I would suggest you go to the show notes and look at some of the links that I put there. Then deconstruct it and see how you can actually work out what one word was I trying to cover. You’ll start to see a pattern and once you get that pattern you will learn how to do it yourself.. Of course there is no substitute for being with a good teacher and I am a good teacher and you know that. I’m going to be there alive in Nashville, Tennessee and then in Amsterdam in The Netherlands and we’re going to do a storytelling workshop. I don’t know if you noticed, but I’m sure you did, this podcast and every podcast is full of stories and that’s what keeps you going. As you’re walking, as you’re driving, suddenly in the middle of all those facts and figures there’s the story unfolding how does that story unfold. When you read the book The Brain Audit or you read the book on pricing or you read the book on testimonials, when you read those books you don’t always know why you like the book so much. Sure there’s a structure. Sure there’s a system, but more critically there are case studies and examples and analogies and stories and that’s what keeps the progression going ahead. Fact and figures they are very good but they are very tiring. Storytelling becomes very critical. It’s not only critical to get the message across in a meaningful way, but it’s also very helpful to know how to construct stories so that your audience remembers them. There are lots of storytelling books and there are lots of storytelling workshops, so why is this one going to be different? This one is different because this is storytelling versus storytelling. When you open a book on storytelling, essentially they’re teaching you how to write short stories or they’re telling how to write a script or a movie. Very rarely are you going to get storytelling that helps you construct stuff from business, for writing articles, for adding to podcast or seminars or just about everything that you do in business. How do you connect it back to the business? How do you create books? How do you create reports? How do you create witch stories embedded in them so they become irresistible? That’s not what most workshops and books online are going to be able to teach you and that’s why this workshop is so critical. Come join us in Nashville on the second, third and fourth of December or if you’re in Europe it’s the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth of December. You can find everything at psychotactics.com/story-telling-workshop. The prices are going up. We always raise prices and they’re going to go up every 20 days or so. By the time you get to it several months later, which is when the workshop begins, it will be at its highest price. We are still in the early bird stages so go to psychotactics.com/story-telling-workshop and we’ll see you there. If you haven’t read The Brain Audit, you should read The Brain Audit. Why? Because it’s one of the coolest business books you will ever read. It has lots of stories and it’s the barrier to the workshop. You have to rear The Brain Audit before you get there, so either the workshop and The Brain Audit or join us at 5000bc.com. That’s it for me on a Friday evening, not 4am, so that’s a little different. Bye for now. Storytelling is “persuasion with class” Does the brain actually process thoughts in a step-by-step manner? You can use all the “buy now” buttons and countdown clocks, but it just comes across as aggressive. You can use facts, figures, and yes, they all work to persuade, but storytelling does it with finesse. See how stories are used in the excerpt of The Brain Audit to get your attention with finesse.

Nypremiär för Bästa Minnet. I första avsnittet av 2014 års program dyker Staffan Dopping ner i - eller kanske snarare över - en känd sporthändelse från 1968. Svante Weyler springer över en nybyggd bro och Anna Charlotta Gunnarsson plockar heta poäng på linjetema. Programledare: Nina Allergren. Dagens tävlande: Anna Charlotta Gunnarsson, journalist. Minns bäst: Marie Myriams ESC-vinst 1977. Impact! Mitt intresse för schlager totalväcktes. Jesper Olsens straffar i fotbolls-VM 1986. Hade väggen full med affischer på honom efter det. Ylvas och mina resor i På spåret. Kommer fortfarande ihåg nästan varenda följdfråga. Svante Weyler, förläggare. Minns bäst: Doften av min mammas parfym när hon gjorde sig fin. Staffan Dopping, kommunikatör. Minns bäst: När Kent Finell i Gomorron 1969 (eller var det -70?) avbröt musiken och lämnade över till Bo Holmström som berättade om missödet på Apollo 13. De kunde ha dött i rymden. Telefongäst: Carina Hilmersson Programmet produceras av produktionsbolaget Munck. Kontakta oss på bastaminnet@sverigesradio.se Producent: David Rune

In the 1960s, American athlete Dick Fosbury revolutionised high-jumping by inventing the 'Fosbury flop'. Instead of diving or scissor-kicking over the high-jump bar, Fosbury floated across on his back. He went on to win a gold medal at the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico City.In 2011, Alan Johnston spoke to Dick Fosbury for Sporting Witness.Image: Dick Fosbury's winning leap at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics (Credit: Bettmann/Getty Images)
