The fight for the truth regarding the UAP/ extraterrestrial phenomenon is an ongoing battle and some people in places of power give subtle hints that they know there is at least something to be said about alien interactions with human beings. Although there have been a plethora of declassified documents recently released pertaining to these hi-tech vehicles, the narrative becomes convoluted because of conflicting information fomented by the mainstream media and certain government agencies. However, now with new scientific discoveries, there are fewer unknowns. The more we dig, the more we find that there is certainly evidence of possible ET technology that is closer than we realize.

“For me, the key to my career was being clear on what my mission is….I feel so enormously fortunate that I found a president to be able to work for who shares that goal….So I think the lesson in that is either be the leader that you want to believe in, or find that leader and attach yourself to them and see what amazing things you can do together. But, for me, it's been about being clear on what it is that I wanted to achieve.” Heather Boushey on Electric Ladies Podcast In 2023 we've had dozens of extraordinary women at the top of their game on Electric Ladies Podcast (like all 400+ of our episodes!).

Author C.J. Milacci discusses the first two books in her Talionis series: Recruit of Talionis and Fugitive of Talionis. These YA sci fi dystopian novels feature main character Bria, a young woman haunted by personal tragedy, who is kidnapped to become a recruit in an army of secret soldiers and forced to fight in a war that she wants no part of. C.J. began with a question: What would happen if America fell like Rome did, while the rest of the world moved on and abandoned the survivors of America's collapse? From C.J.'s answer to that question, the Talionis novels were born.
Welcome to another illuminating episode of Tech Talks Daily Podcast. I sit down with Fran Rosch, the visionary CEO of ForgeRock, a global leader in digital identity management. With a radical transformation on the horizon, Fran sheds light on the pressing challenges and monumental opportunities in enterprise identification management. Having previously been at the helm of Symantec's $2B+ Consumer Digital Safety segment, Fran brings two decades of rich industry experience to the table. In this episode, Fran takes listeners through a historical overview of how authentication has evolved over the past 20 years, punctuating the narrative with intriguing insights. Has technology really moved the needle, or are we stuck in a quagmire of incremental advancements? With solutions like self-service options and biometrics, Fran argues we're on the cusp of a passwordless future. But is the industry ready for it? Are we, as users, prepared for such a monumental shift? As we delve deeper into the realm of identity management, we discuss the far-reaching challenges and opportunities for organizations and governments in an ever-connected world. With identities numbering in the millions, perhaps billions, Fran casts a lens on the complexities of scale, specifically in the context of AI and IoT. We then explore why, despite notable technological advances, flawed passwords continue to be the Achilles heel of digital identity management. Is it inertia, or is it a complex web of technological, social, and economic factors? Fran paints a vivid picture of the challenges surrounding technology adoption and change management, especially when it comes to passwordless authentication. He emphasizes the urgency for companies to transition to new identity solutions—not just to stay competitive, but also to improve user experiences, both for consumers and within the enterprise. This episode is a must-listen for anyone intrigued by the future of digital identity, AI, and the ever-evolving technological landscape. From C-suite executives to tech enthusiasts, there are actionable insights and thought-provoking discussions that promise to keep you engaged from start to finish. Tune in and prepare to rethink what you know about passwords and digital identity.

From C-sections to dialysis to cancer treatment, antibiotics are the basis of modern medicine. The more we use antibiotics, the more quickly resistance develops, and deaths as a result of resistant infections are projected to skyrocket in the coming decades. Yet, the market for antibiotics is broken. As of January 2020, there are 60 products currently in development of which the WHO reports very few target the most critical resistant bacteria and it will take years before a handful will reach patients. Why are investments in new antibiotics to meet the threat drying up? Maurizio Luongo, Chief Executive Officer, Menarini Asia-Pacific shares his views.

It's a mixture of both – you have the great people and the processes, and then you have the tech, and they're all just trying to come together.” [19.56] How and why Anthony became a provocative logistics voice on LinkedIn. “I want people to read something and think about it, go and do some research, talk to people and form your own opinions.” [27.53] Anthony and Eric discuss CargoWise - its position in the market, why the organization has come under recent scrutiny, how businesses like GoFreight are breaking through to serve the SMB market, and the downside of aggressive acquisition strategies.

Every journey is unique and what makes Bob Meads so special is the passion in which he unpacks his creation story that led him to the amazing world of augmented reality.

That love for technology presented many opportunities for him to grow his skillset which included items such as computer and PLC programming. From C++ to Java he never backed down from the challenge of mastering these platforms. At the heart of what he always loved was software. So when the opportunity presented itself to solve problems that industrial manufacturers were facing with a technology like augmented reality Bob leaned in and hasn't looked back. He's literally on the front lines of many industry 4.0 initiatives and helps people every day accomplish some of their most challenging modernization goals.Bob's happiness comes from serving others and that resonates loud and clear in his story.

Sit back, close your eyes and breathe in compassion for yourself and others through this guided meditation. At the end of this loving kindness meditation, Julie Potiker shares her poem, "Where I'm From".Where I'm From Poem, by Julie Potiker I am from The Random House Dictionary, on its' own built-in desk in the library, near the gold colored Flokati Rug – a rug that could tell tales. From Fig Newtons and Grandma Claire's oatmeal cookies, delivered in the oatmeal cylinder box covered in brown paper and sent through the mail. I am from the flagstone and wood house with 2 big blue spruce trees in the front yard, 2 apple trees and 2 pear trees in the backyard. I am from Lilac bushes running the length of the hedge, and my mom's green thumb making magic in colors, textures and scents – red, orange, yellow, pinks and purples – which I sometimes helped push into the rich dark soil. I'm from matzo balls and brisket and be dressed in the foyer at 5pm. From the Jacobowitz's, and the Scherr's. I'm from whomever guesses the color of the door at the next motel gets a treat from the vending machine, and always keep your options open. From C's are not acceptable in this house, and you won't be in trouble if you tell the truth. I'm from the scholarship of the Chachem Zvi to the atheists and everything in between. I'm from Cleveland, Ohio – Poland and Russia. From Chocolate Ice Cream and Black Licorice. From my parents eloping at age 18, and being together for 67 years until death did part them. From my father supporting my mother in her career aspirations in the 60s, before men did those things – she soaring in healthcare administration, authoring 5 books, and lecturing around the globe with him. From Dozens of photo albums in storage – but my mom's perfume bottle collection, cow collection and owl collection gracing my shelves. My Dad's cashmere sweaters and throw blankets keeping me warm and connected, and a pile of his shirts lovingly made into a quilt that my eyes and heart love. I am a link in the chain – going backward through time, and forwards forever.

Slang, it's defined as language peculiar to a particular group, composed of arbitrarily changed words and extravagant figures of speech. That sounds about right. It's also a way we define ourselves and our generations. And it can make for a lively conversation. My daughter Sydney, a Gen Z, my wife Sara, a Gen X and I, just barely a Boomer, sat down and talked slang. From C.E.O. and MAIN CHARACTER to GRODY and PHAT. You'll get an education, I sure did.

“It is dull, Son of Adam, to drink without eating,” said the Queen presently. “What would you like best to eat?”“The roasted corpse of my enemies. Or, failing that, Turkish Delight, please, your Majesty,” said Chimera. -From C.S. Lewis' lesser known novel ‘The Lion, the Goat and the Dragon' The Chimera is one of the most famous monsters from Greek mythology and that means Alex recognized it right away. So this week, instead of diving straight into the D&D lore, Alex gives us a little lesson in mythology.Then, get this: it turns out chimeras are a real actual thing that exists in the world. Our world. Like, the world that you're sitting and reading this sentence in. So Alex tells us a little bit about the science behind real life chimeras. After that, Kyle talks about the D&D version of the creature, which is pretty cool. But after learning about the real life chimera, it honestly seems a little silly. Anyway, check out the episode and help us decide if it's a friend or a fiend.

Or, failing that, Turkish Delight, please, your Majesty,” said Chimera. -From C.S. Lewis' lesser known novel 'The Lion, the Goat and the Dragon' The Chimera is one of the most famous monsters from Greek mythology and that means Alex recognized it right away. So this week, instead of diving straight into the D&D lore, Alex gives us a little lesson in mythology. Then, get this: it turns out chimeras are a real actual thing that exists in the world. Our world. Like, the world that you're sitting and reading this sentence in. So Alex tells us a little bit about the science behind real life chimeras. After that, Kyle talks about the D&D version of the creature, which is pretty cool. But after learning about the real life chimera, it honestly seems a little silly.

Interview with Ryan King, VP, Corporate Development of Calibre Mining Corp. (TSX:CXB)There are plenty of exciting stories in the gold space right now, but this one is up there for us.Calibre Mining is a TSX-listed 10-year gold explorer that has recently turned producer. The team at Calibre Mining arrived from Newmarket Gold, acquiring 2 Nicaraguan assets from gold major, B2Gold: El Limon, and La Libertad. The company has just announced its Q1/20 results and they are strong, with solid grades and plenty of cash flow.At the beginning of 2020, Calibre Mining announced its guidance for the year was 140,000-150,000oz gold production, at an AISC US$1,000/oz figure.Why did the company shift from long-term explorer to full-speed ahead producer? From years spent assessing and scrutinising gold assets, the management team came to a realisation: if they could obtain the right "suite" of assets, with good geological upside/potential, the right timing, and at the right price, they could make investors a lot of money.When the gold market was in a downcycle, B2Gold moved it focus away from El Limon and La Libertad to focus on other advanced gold projects. These assets became non-core, and Calibre Mining was able to pounce on the opportunity. In 2018, after share price stagnation, the company decided to pivot away from its exploration past to replicate the management team's success at Newmont Gold. The company set about attempting to buy producing assets. It did a 10:1 consolidation, conducted a small raise of C$5M (largely from the board). Around 1-year later, Calibre Mining announced its intention to buy the duo of assets, in addition to a C$105M financing. The fact that Calibre Mining was successful, especially considering gold was in a down cycle at the time, is mightily impressive. The company paid US$40M in cash to B2Gold along with US$40M in shares. B2Gold now holds 34% of Calibre Mining. There is one remaining payment of US$15M due in April 2021. This is the only debt. Looks like a strong balance sheet. Calibre Mining has added two producing gold mines to its list of gold exploration assets. It looks like a great portfolio.So, how is Nicaragua as a mining jurisdiction? King admits it's not well known, but he has good relationship with the Nicaraguan ministries of labour, mine and transport due to pre-existing relationships. King states that c. 98% of his workforce is comprised of locals. King speaks highly of Nicaragua's mining code. Mining is key to the country's economy.King has managed to transform the two assets into something much more impressive than they used to be? How? King has capitalised on the excellent infrastructure (particularly roads) and power services of Nicaragua. The two processing facilities have around 250-300km between them, but there are multiple ore sources spread around Limon, Libertad and Pavon. These ore sources combine with a total of 2.7Mt of installed capacity to create a cohesive, efficient model that allows Calibre to shift and move ores to where they will be most efficiently processed. This was reflected in the Q1 results: 20% of the Libertad Processing Facility's metal production came from sources that aren't on the Libertad property. King states he is proving the concept he set out with, and this has been reflected in an exponentially rising share price. From C$0.54 in mid-march, it has shot up to C$1.09 in just over a month. The market has latched onto the value proposition King is offering.It appears Calibre Mining has managed to piece together some quite ordinary assets and is processing them in an incredibly efficient and intelligent fashion. Equinox Gold springs to mind. King states that investors are buying into increasing grades, which could have a transformative impact on economics. The company US$43M of cash.What did you make of Ryan King?

In music theory, a scale is any set of musical notes ordered by fundamental frequency or pitch. A scale ordered by increasing pitch is an ascending scale, and a scale ordered by decreasing pitch is a descending scale. Some scales contain different pitches when ascending than when descending, for example, the melodic minor scale. Often, especially in the context of the common practice period, most or all of the melody and harmony of a musical work is built using the notes of a single scale, which can be conveniently represented on a staff with a standard key signature.[1] Due to the principle of octave equivalence, scales are generally considered to span a single octave, with higher or lower octaves simply repeating the pattern. A musical scale represents a division of the octave space into a certain number of scale steps, a scale step being the recognizable distance (or interval) between two successive notes of the scale.[2] However, there is no need for scale steps to be equal within any scale and, particularly as demonstrated by microtonal music, there is no limit to how many notes can be injected within any given musical interval. A measure of the width of each scale step provides a method to classify scales. For instance, in a chromatic scale each scale step represents a semitone interval, while a major scale is defined by the interval pattern W–W–H–W–W–W–H, where W stands for whole step (an interval spanning two semitones: From C to D), and H stands for half-step (From C to C#). Based on their interval patterns, scales are put into categories including diatonic, chromatic, major, minor, and others. A specific scale is defined by its characteristic interval pattern and by a special note, known as its first degree (or tonic). The tonic of a scale is the note selected as the beginning of the octave, and therefore as the beginning of the adopted interval pattern. Typically, the name of the scale specifies both its tonic and its interval pattern. For example, C major indicates a major scale with a C tonic. weki Scale_(music) # voice #howtosing #scalemusic #musicscale --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/vegansteven/message

Tami Holzman, first-time author of the best-selling book "From C-Student to the C-Suite" joins Kalika Yap on this episode of Wonder podcast to share her story of being a "C" student to a successful author, angel investor, and women entrepreneurship advocate. Tune in to the latest episode of Wonder podcast! Timestamped Show notes 01:00 Kalika Yap introduces today’s guest, Tami Holzman. 01:25 Tami Holzman recalls being an average student and having Harvard as her dream school. 02:02 She wrote her book “From C-student to C-suite” from a humorous perspective as there is a lack of fresh approaches to business guides and relationship-building. 02:30 She encountered an article from Forbes magazine that said 85% of getting business is because of emotional intelligence, which inspired her to write about her insecurities instead of her successes. 04:34 Tami describes herself as a perfect 7, better than average but far from perfect, and there's room for improvement. 05:10 The journey of writing the book was very hard because she had to evaluate the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of herself. Tami used to be very critical of herself so writing the book was quite therapeutic for her. 07:00 She remembers a time where she thought of herself as a failure because a company she built became a failure. She was so engrossed in the company that it felt it was her identity, an extension of herself and she took the failure very personally. 11:22 Tami talks about her beginnings in the entertainment business as a talent agent, to when she landed a role in the male-dominated space of sports. 17:51 Tami’s last mentor was her 18-year old intern. She believes that mentors come from all walks of life and that you can learn from anyone and everyone. 21:00 Having great relationship skills and understanding people is just as valuable as getting an A in school. Emotional intelligence is a much better standard to predict career success. 22:49 The hallmark of emotional intelligence is self-awareness. Being able to understand who you are is really important and also being able to understand how other people perceive you. 24:20 The stronger your relationships are with people, the more you'll benefit. The weaker your relationships are the harder it is to get your point across. Key Takeaways You don’t need to be perfect to be successful. Showing vulnerability is a strength. If you're not being vulnerable, you're not taking chances. Women should invest more, especially in other women, to create more opportunities.

Maestro Classical podcast - episode 006: Johann Sebastian Bach feat. Lara St. John & Trevor Pinnick Johann Sebastian Bach: (from Wikipedia.org) (31 March 1685 – 28 July 1750) was a German composer and organist whose sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra, and solo instruments drew together the strands of the Baroque period and brought it to its ultimate maturity. Although he introduced no new forms, he enriched the prevailing German style with a robust contrapuntal technique, an unrivalled control of harmonic and motivic organisation in composition for diverse musical forces, and the adaptation of rhythms and textures from abroad, particularly Italy and France. Lara St. John "Bach: The Six Sonatas & Partitas for Violin Solo" (Ancalagon) ALBUM NOTES Sei Solo a Violino senza Basso accompagnato (Six Solos for Violin without accompanying Bass) Completed: Cöthen, 1720 According to the date he inscribed on the title page of the manuscript, Johann Sebastian Bach completed his Six Solos for Violin without accompanying Bass sometime in 1720. On 21 March of that year, he turned 35. Already a father of four, for the past two and a half years Bach had been harpsichordist and director of the elite chamber orchestra at the court of the Prince of Cöthen. Bach reportedly "dearly loved" his employer, the young Prince Leopold (1694-1728), who was not only a committed music-lover but himself a keen amateur performer, and even occasionally a composer, who, according to Bach, "loved and understood" the art. And, as one of Leopold's best-paid court functionaries, Bach was highly valued in return. In May of that year, when the prince set out for his annual summer "rest cure" in the Bohemian spa town of Carlsbad (Karlovy Vary), his harpsichordist Bach, went with him, along with five other leading members of the court band. Away from his home, young family, and usual court responsibilities for almost two months at a time, Bach evidently made good compositional use of such relatively carefree summers as that of 1720, as he did of his time at Cöthen. In the space of less than six years residence at the court (from December 1717 to May 1723), Bach rolled out a dazzling stream of masterpieces across a no less amazing range of instrumental genres. The six Brandenburg Concerti (BWV 1046-1051), the crème of his new orchestral compositions for the Cöthen band, were finished in fair copy on 24 March 1721. The first volume of the Well-Tempered Clavier (BWV 846-869) was probably largely completed during 1722. The parallel sets of 15 Inventions (BWV 772-786) and 15 Sinfonias (BWV 787-801) date, like the violin Solos, from the very middle of his Cöthen stay, flanked in the years on either side, respectively, by the six English Suites (BWV 806-811) and six French Suites (BWV 812-817). From Cöthen, too, came the only other set of instrumental pieces that challenges the violin Solos on the grounds of sheer oddity: the Six Suites for Solo Cello (BWV 1007-1012), likewise scored without accompanying Bass. 1.

Some might date from the weeks immediately preceding the dedication, but the existence of early versions of some pieces suggests that Bach may have compiled much of the set from a pool of existing works. His aims in revision and compilation seem to have been to present six entirely disparate solutions to the instrumental concerto genre, a genre which was by no means fixed and which could imply many instrumental combinations. This attitude of attempting an encyclopaedic survey of a musical genre and also of perfecting and refining the best of what he had already written became a major compositional concern for Bach over the last three decades of his life; the Brandenburg dedication may well mark the beginning of this process. 4.
