In this raw, revealing, and occasionally hilarious conversation, she shares how her retrocognitive gifts work, the dangers of knowing too much, and why she always sleeps with the lights on. Oh—and did we mention she does this life-saving work for free? In This Episode, You'll Discover:What a retrocognitive medium really is—and why it's so rareHow Mary uses spiritual imprints and Google Earth to map the last moments of the deceasedFirsthand accounts of capturing spirits on camera (including Salem witches and Civil War hauntings)Why law enforcement overseas seeks her out while U.S. authorities often don'tWhy she refuses to charge families looking for their lost loved onesAnd the real reason she sleeps with the lights on every night…Connect with Mary:Website: marythemedium.comEmail: therealmarythemedium@gmail.comWhether you're a believer or a skeptic, this one will leave you speechless.

Welcome back to The Sesh — your one-way ticket to cannabis-infused rabbit holes you didn't know you needed.This round, Brandon and Jesse crack open their shiny new stash of Doctor Dabber toys — including the Boost EVO, the XS, the Switch 2, and the slick ‘Drop' hot knife. Yes, they got spoiled. No, they're not sorry.

Alberto Herrera, en "Herrera en COPE", el programa de Carlos Herrera, nos habla del misterio de la "pirámide" de la Antártida y de otros misterios del mundo. Una imagen de satélite de la Antártida, que muestra una formación rocosa con sorprendente forma de pirámide, llamó la atención de miles de usuarios en redes sociales y ha dado pie a una ola de especulaciones sobre su origen. Sin embargo, se esclareció el fenómeno: la estructura, visible en Google Earth y ubicada en la región sur de la cordillera Ellsworth, es el resultado de procesos geológicos y climáticos que han modelado el paisaje antártico durante millones de años.

*Warning* Bad sound quality - apologies!In this special live edition of the AI/XR Podcast from Augmented World Expo (AWE) 2025, hosts Charlie Fink and Ted Schilowitz are joined by returning guests from Zappar, co-founders Connell Gauld (CTO) and Casper Thykier (CEO) and Auki Labs' CEO Nils Phil, to explore how AI and spatial computing are merging in real-world environments. The conversation spotlights Zapper's Mattercraft platform and its use of “accessible QR codes” to enable spatial navigation and real-time AR experiences without downloading an app. Nils introduces the idea of “collaborative machine perception” as a necessary condition for robots to navigate and work in the physical world—what he calls the “great reversal,” where AI exits the digital and enters the real. Later, XR Guild co-founder Avi Bar-Zeev joins to discuss ethics in XR, the need for community mentorship, and the importance of preserving the creator ecosystem in the age of AI scraping. The conversation closes with personal reflections on past projects like Aladdin's Magic Carpet Ride, Google Earth, and HoloLens.Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

En este episodio de Lo Misterioso, emitido en el espacio de Carlos Herrera en COPE, Javier Sierra nos invita a explorar los enigmas del continente más remoto y desconocido del planeta: la Antártida. El punto de partida es la viral aparición, hace años, de lo que parecía ser una pirámide perfecta captada por Google Earth en medio del hielo antártico. Aunque los geólogos han ofrecido explicaciones naturales —formaciones conocidas como nunataks esculpidas por la erosión y el hielo—, el fenómeno resurge cíclicamente en internet, reavivando teorías conspirativas y misteriosas. Sierra conecta esta "pirámide" con antiguas narraciones, como el relato de En las montañas de la locura de Lovecraft, y teorías sobre la Atlántida de Platón, que algunos sitúan en la Antártida. Además, el periodista plantea el enigma de ciertos mapas del siglo XVI, como los de Oronce Finé o Piri Reis, que parecen mostrar con precisión partes del continente antártico siglos antes de su descubrimiento oficial. El programa también menciona otros misterios geológicos como el muro de Bimini, la estructura submarina de Yonaguni en Japón, o curiosas formaciones en España como el Monte Castillo en Puente Viesgo. A través de todos estos casos, Sierra sugiere que el planeta —y quizá incluso otros mundos— está lleno de estructuras que oscilan entre lo natural y lo inexplicable, invitando al oyente a mantener viva la duda y el asombro.

In this podcast, Jon Westfall and I discussed: A significant portion of our conversation centered on the continuing proliferation of AI in consumer products. We noted an increasing sense of "AI fatigue"—the saturation of artificial intelligence in nearly every product and announcement. Although I am personally intrigued by developments in AI-generated video and imaging, especially from Google and Meta, I also find the AI trend overwhelming at times. I am even considering subscribing to Google One's AI Premium offering to further explore these capabilities, particularly for personal creative projects. We also speculated on potential announcements from Apple's upcoming WWDC, especially regarding artificial intelligence and whether Apple will finally deliver tangible AI features, following a less-than-smooth rollout of “Apple Intelligence.” I expressed hope for hardware updates, such as a refreshed Apple Watch Ultra or a more affordable version of the Vision Pro headset—rumored to be called the Vision Air. I noted that I recently began revisiting older episodes of this podcast, some dating back to 2008. I've started re-editing and publishing select episodes as audiograms. One of these featured an interview with the developers of Google Earth for iPhone, recorded in early 2009—just six months after the App Store's debut. It was particularly meaningful to hear the voice of my late friend Mike Morton, one of the app's original developers. We also touched on some of my ongoing technology experiments. I've been attempting to repurpose a 2019 AMD laptop that no longer supports Windows 11. My initial plan to install ChromeOS Flex was thwarted by hardware incompatibility, so I've shifted my attention to Linux Mint. Although I encountered issues related to UEFI preventing boot from a USB drive, I plan to revisit this project soon Jon offered a compelling perspective on the evolving role of AI in higher education. He discussed how he and other faculty are adapting to student use of AI tools such as ChatGPT, emphasizing the importance of transparency, responsible use, and pedagogical innovation. Jon's work in this area demonstrates a balanced, practical approach that integrates emerging technology while preserving academic integrity. We concluded the episode with a broader reflection on the societal implications of AI, particularly the concern that up to 50% of entry-level jobs may be impacted in the coming years. As someone no longer in the workforce, I observe these shifts with a mix of concern and curiosity, especially regarding how younger generations will navigate such disruptions. We acknowledged the historical cycles of technological change—from calculators and word processors to broadband and mobile computing—and how each brought both fear and opportunity.

Wayne Courreges III is a Marine Corps veteran and the founder of CRI Partners, a real estate investment firm focused on building generational wealth through multifamily and entrepreneurial assets. After a 16-year career in asset and property management with CBRE, Wayne transitioned full-time to real estate investing in 2023. He now leads a $50M portfolio that spans value-add multifamily, RV/boat storage development, and strategic commercial projects in Texas and the Southeast.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Wayne's journey from Marine Corps to CBRE to full-time real estate entrepreneur was fueled by long-term vision and layered income streams. Asset management and development experience allowed him to take calculated risks while building CRI Partners. His model includes multifamily investments (80%) and entrepreneurial projects like RV/boat storage and mixed-use developments (20%). For passive investors, education is key—ask the right questions, vet the sponsor, and understand the deal before wiring money. Taking action and surrounding yourself with experienced mentors are essential to building momentum and avoiding costly mistakes.     Topics From W-2 to Full-Time Investor Started investing while working in commercial real estate at CBRE. Created income through asset management fees, acquisition fees, and development work before making the leap. Made the switch when he realized he couldn't serve both CBRE clients and investors at the level they deserved. Why Multifamily Is Still the Foundation 80% of his portfolio is traditional value-add multifamily across Houston and San Antonio. Focuses on deals in strong, secondary markets with stable rent growth and access to workforce housing. Prioritizes transparency, conservative underwriting, and investor trust. Entrepreneurial Investments: RV, Boat & Business Storage Developed a 20x50 enclosed storage facility based on lessons from a successful Huntsville, AL deal. Business tenants include HVAC companies, disaster response teams, stagers, athletic companies, ranchers, and state agencies. Facility design and location (highway visibility, 100k+ population) drive demand and retention. Diversification Through Local Development Acquired and rezoned 12 acres for a 150-unit multifamily development and SpringHill Suites hotel in Bryan, TX. Emphasizes that high-risk projects like these are only pursued when they're local and manageable. Maintains a disciplined approach—stabilize one asset before scaling the next. Educating Passive Investors Created PassiveInvestorCoaching.com to help LPs learn how to vet sponsors, markets, and opportunities. Teaches how to assess underwriting, ask better questions, and avoid the most common mistakes. Encourages LPs to start small and grow confidence through informed investing.    

Despite covering over 70% of our planet, the oceans and seas remain largely unmapped and poorly understood. Collecting useable data about the oceans is hard and expensive--reliant on specialized costly vessels, old-school technologies, and plenty of labour. The comparison to land mapping technologies (like Google Earth) is stark--we have near-total visibility of land-based infrastructure, continuously updated, and collected by satellite. Subsea infrastructure, like pipelines and cables, are managed with minimal, outdated, and isolated datasets. This gap in oceanic intelligence is an increasing problem.  We're constantly adding new subsea infrastructure—cables, pipelines, risers, platforms—to support oil and gas, power, telecoms, mining, and military operations. At the same time, owners and operators are sailing blind, relying on static years-old surveys. And sea floors are pretty dynamic, subject to tides, currents, and human activity. You can really appreciate the mounting financial and operational risks—from infrastructure damage to safety concerns to project delays. Enter Terradepth, a data-as-a-service company that is bringing Silicon Valley smarts to subsea intelligence. In this episode, I speak with COO Kris Rydberg on how they're using autonomous vehicles and cloud infrastructure to drastically cut the cost of ocean data acquisition. The best part is how ocean data is now subscription-based, with high reusability across industries. This model reduces capital risk, improves predictive decision-making, and promotes multi-sector collaboration.

Here is a quick one about finding those shallow hiding places for spawning and feeding. Historic Imagery is key when looking at drought years for walleye! #ittoutdoors #walleyefishing #walleye #fishinglife #walleyefishingpocast #chasingwalter

In February 2021 a strange image appeared in Google Earth. What looked like a multi legged, sizeable organism was seen walking along the polar caps of antarctica.Antarctica is, on average, the coldest, driest, and windiest of the continents, and it has the highest average elevation. It is mainly a polar desert, with annual precipitation of over 8 in along the coast and far less inland. About 70% of the world's freshwater reserves are frozen in Antarctica, which, if melted, would raise global sea levels by almost 60 metres. Antarctica holds the record for the lowest measured temperature on Earth, −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F). The coastal regions can reach temperatures over 10 °C (50 °F) in the summer. Native species of animals include mites, nematodes, penguins, seals and tardigrades. Where vegetation occurs, it is mostly in the form of lichen or moss. But could it be possible that this hostile environment could harbour giant invertebrates?

You've probably seen the photo.   "Earthrise" is one of the most significant photographs in the history of human civilization, and certainly the most iconic in space exploration. Taken by astronaut William Anders during the Apollo 8 mission, the first crewed mission to orbit the Moon, on December 24, 1968, this photograph captured the imagination of the world.   The image itself is remarkably simple, yet its impact was immediate and profound. It shows the Earth rising above the lunar horizon, with our planet's blue and white colors standing out against the stark, barren surface of the Moon, all surrounded by the black vacuum of space. Our little blue dot, floating in the vastness of the cosmos.   Fast forward to today, and we have thousands of satellites in orbit, looking back at us. These satellites perform a variety of critical tasks, from positioning, navigation, and timing to telecommunications. But above all else, they continue the legacy of "Earthrise" by keeping an eye on our planet.   Satellites today are active participants in managing and understanding our planet, monitoring weather, ocean currents, and topographical changes. They track the health of coral reefs, They play crucial roles in agriculture by predicting crop yields, in urban development by aiding city planners, and in disaster response by providing real-time data on natural catastrophes. Additionally, satellites are instrumental in climate science, measuring greenhouse gas concentrations, monitoring polar ice caps, and tracking health of coral reefs. They also contribute to conservation efforts by tracking animal migrations and monitoring endangered species.    —essentially, they take selfies of Earth.   Next time you open up Google Earth or a similar maps application, you're seeing the result of this advanced photographic technology. But unlike the modified Hasselblad camera used by Anders, today's satellites are far more sophisticated, and their power requirements are much more complex. The first lunar module was famously less powerful than the smartphones we carry in our pockets. When our phones run out of battery, we simply plug them into the wall and wait for recharge.   Satellites, however, face a different challenge entirely.   Space power design is a daunting task. Here on Earth, we can dispatch a service technician to fix issues as they arise. Up there, satellites are on their own. This is where advanced power management and delivery systems come into play, and the need for radiation-tolerant components qualified for space applications becomes critical. These systems must capture energy from solar panels and distribute it efficiently to each function within the spacecraft, often at ever-increasing voltages. There's no room for error; the components need to be installed and designed right the first time.   In sum, satellites have evolved from simple observational tools to complex systems that provide critical data for a wide range of applications, all aimed at making our lives better and our planet more sustainable. As we continue to push the boundaries of what these incredible machines can do, the importance of reliable and efficient power management systems cannot be overstated.   How can Microchip Technology power and drive the evolution of satellite technology?   Links from the episode: Rad-Hard MOSFET landing page - Radiation-Hardened Power MOSFETs | Microchip Technology Space brochure - Space Solutions Brochure   Guest: Oscar Mansilla

Two hundred years ago, geologists determined that there was never a worldwide flood.But the early geologists' conclusion--which continues to be believed today--is indisputably erroneous, according to Michael Jaye, Ph.D.Told in easily understood language, Jaye explains how geologists got it so wrong, and more importantly, he challenges their modern-day peers to examine foundational beliefs, especially in the presence of new map data. Along the way, he identifies and rectifies geology's historic error and its consequences, answering questions such as:Why do geologists believe that there was never a worldwide flood? How is this belief erroneous?How did submerged structures like Monterey Canyon form? What process do geologists ascribe to their formation?In what way are Google Earth and Google Maps similar to Galileo's telescope?With new map data revealing submerged rivers in more than two miles of water, it's clear that such a volume could only have a cosmic source.Jaye identifies the impact remnants, and he explains how its effects irreversibly changed Earth's ecosystem. Humans are among surviving species, but we find ourselves ill-adapted to the post-flood ecosystem.Discover a historical, scientific, and philosophical treatment of The Worldwide Flood--it will forever change the way you consider Earth and human history.Michael Jaye, Ph.D., recently retired as an associate professor at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. He previously spent fifteen years teaching mathematics and its applications at West Point, New York. His interest in the worldwide flood began with Google Maps images of the Monterey Canyon system.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

This is the third in a series of episodes with world-leading product management  experts about how we might build product management best practices into team leadership. Alex Komoroske spent years as either a Product Manager or Director of Product Management for platforms that most of us use every day: Chrome, Google Maps, Google Earth, and others. He then went on to lead corporate strategy at Stripe, another platform most of us use every day.  While at Google, Alex wrote an internal how-to called “Practical PM Stuff” that many Google PMs referred to as the Product Managers Bible.  It covered everything from basics like how to answer an email to esoterica like the difference between complexity and ambiguity or how Schelling points form in organizations. In this episode, Dart and Alex discuss:- Work as an ecosystem, not a machine- Indirect influence over direct control- How frameworks can kill creativity- The role of product management in work design- How companies stifle innovation- The power of riding momentum- Managers as curators, not controllers- Balancing autonomy and structure- Why great ideas bypass leadership- And other topics...Alex Komoroske is a product leader and systems thinker who specializes in platforms and ecosystems. Alex is known for his "Gardening Platforms" approach, which encourages guiding ecosystems toward greatness instead of controlling them. Now Co-CEO of Common Tools, he continues to explore how technology and organizations evolve.Resources Mentioned:Finite and Infinite Games, by James Carse: https://www.amazon.com/Finite-Infinite-Games-James-Carse/dp/1476731713The Stacy Barton conversation about Disney storytelling and work. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/immersive-experience-design-how-to-use-story-to-design/id1612743401?i=1000599527522 The Marty Cagan conversation about product management and work   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-design-products-people-love-principles-and/id1612743401?i=1000668997003 The David Obstfeld conversation about brokering social networks and work https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/social-networks-the-1-predictor-of-economic/id1612743401?i=1000677462011 Connect with Alex:Website: https://www.komoroske.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-komoroske-6597336/Twitter: https://x.com/komoramaWork with Dart:Dart is the CEO and co-founder of the work design firm 11fold.

A story that allegedly unfolded in 1949 Sweden recently emerged on Reddit that describes a strange encounter a then 19-year-old Sven Perssons had with two flying saucers, multiple human-looking extraterrestrials, and a female alien that had a pig-like snout for a nose, and mane that ran from her head down her back. Also, an object that looks like a crashed flying saucer was recently found on Google Earth.

Bienvenidos una vez mas al canal de audio de buscadores de la verdad donde podrán escuchar nuestro último Spaces en directo de Twitter. Les hemos hablado de muchas cosas, entre ellas sobre el próximo evento que haremos el dia 22 de febrero en la ermita de la Soledad en Loriguilla. Allí hablaré sobre mi último libro, La Línea, que muestra a través del hilo conductor de una línea recta en Google Earth como desde muy antiguo se conocía como aprovechar la energia etérica que discurría por estas lineas ley. En este próximo evento tendremos la participación confirmada de dos zahorís y será sin duda una oportunidad magnífica para conseguir alguno de los libros que he escrito y llevárselos dedicados a casa. Aprovecharemos para hablarles sobre el show y sobretodo del futuro inmediato en este 2025. Las sincronicidades se producirán a lo largo del programa y les hablaremos de que son y para que sirven. Y por supuesto, el final de nuestro podcast tendrá mi quinta revelación sobre lo que pasara con el bitcoin y los mercados financieros. ¿Acertaré por quinta vez o fallaré estrepitosamente? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Bueno, ya está claro donde realizaremos el evento para presentar mi ultimo libro La Línea, el sitio es la ermita de la Soledad en Loriguilla (el nuevo), está en la carretera de Loriguilla a Ribarroja del Turia (CV374), se ve el promontorio a la derecha de Loriguilla. No está indicada la ermita en la rotonda que lleva hacia ella, pero se ve claramente cual es la carretera. https://maps.app.goo.gl/q7arFtPoL2RsgyWv5 El dia, el sábado dia 22 de febrero. La hora, como no puede ser de otra manera, ja, ja, ja, las 11 de la mañana. Así formamos un bonito 33 junto con el dia. Mi intención es estar en las mesas de la ermita que tiene unas vistas panorámicas muy chulas hasta la hora de comer y luego irnos a comer a un asador a Cheste. Dicho asador se llena, así que sería interesante confirmar la asistencia a la comida ya que yo encargaré una mesa por anticipado. Posiblemente se puedan ampliar plazas al llegar al evento...pero no estoy 100% seguro de eso. La comida seria a la carta y cada uno se pagaría lo suyo. El sitio suele salir a la carta por unos 35 euros, una buena comida con entrecot. También llevare algunos ejemplares de mis tres libros: Blasco Ibáñez desvelado, Ojos bien abiertos y La Línea. Del segundo y el tercero solo tengo 4 unidades de cada y son de autor, sólo hay 5 ejemplares de autor, y no se pueden comprar a Amazon. Todos son tapa blanda, el primero a 18 euros, el segundo a 25 y el tercero a 22, o sea, todos mucho mas baratos que en Amazon. El evento se trataría de pasar un rato disfrutando de las vistas y conociendonos, luego os hablaría del tercer libro y sobre las líneas ley. Finalmente haríamos (el que quiera) una especie de ritual bueno para desear que se tuerzan los planes de los malos. Se trataría de aprovechando el sitio tan energético pensar en cosas que queremos que no sucedan, nunca desear el mal a nadie, pasarnos una hoja en blanco de papel e ir pensando para nuestros adentros lo que deseamos que no ocurra y escribirlo mentalmente en la hoja. Tras pasar por todos los que participemos, la hoja la rompería diciendo tres veces, nada de esto se va a cumplir, van a fracasar vuestros planes malvados. Tras esto volveríamos a disfrutar del paisaje y charlar un poco hasta la hora de comer para salir aproximadamente a las 2 hacia la comida. El que no quiera ir a comer puede quedarse a comer con lo que el mismo traiga en este sitio, esperemos que no haya gente ocupando las mesas y salga un dia soleado. Hay mucho césped alrededor y sitio suficiente para aparcar unos cuantos coches. Lo dicho, pasaremos un dia muy agradable. No hace falta comprar ningún libro para acudir. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Hammer throws are a regular event at track and field competitions - where athletes spin and release a metal ball attached to a steel wire. Now it's lead to tragedy when the ball went over the barrier and hit a dad in the stands. As Les Trent reports, he was killed while shielding his wife and son. And it was one of President Trump's first executive actions after returning to the White House - renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. But is it sticking? Plus, a mystery in Los Angeles, an image on Google Earth shows the word “help” scrawled out over and over in giant letters. But who did it? Jim Moret is at the shipping container yard where the cryptic message was etched into the dirt. And in Los Angeles, more than 16,000 structures have now been destroyed in the fires. For those whose homes are among them, they have lost virtually everything. But for one couple, there's a reason to celebrate. All because of a symbol of their love that was found in the ashes.

My Story  Talk 3  Home, Family, Christmas & Holidays (1947-1953) Welcome to Talk 3 in our series where I'm reflecting on the goodness of God throughout my life. From what I've said so far it's clear that after the war my life in the 1940s was largely comprised of school and church. I suppose that was true of most Christian children in those days and continues to be so today. And what was true of my years at primary school and Sunday school was also true of the years that followed. Most of my activity was to be centred on school and church. But before I move on to those things in the next talk, I need to say more about my family, because without a doubt our family is by far the strongest influence in the formation of our character, our behaviour, and our outlook on life. And life is not just about our education or work or church. It's about relationships, people, recreation, having fun, and healthy enjoyment of the things God has so graciously lavished upon us. So this talk is about my home, my family, Christmas and holidays.   Home For the first 23 years of my life I lived with my parents in the home in Hornchurch where I was born. It was a fairly standard three bedroomed semidetached house, but it benefited from a rather large garden which backed onto the railway. We weren't disturbed by the noise of the trains because the garden was some 200 feet – about 60 metres – long, but by walking to the end of the garden and looking down the railway embankment we could watch electric trains on the District Line and the steam locomotives on the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. My parents were both keen gardeners and had chosen the house because of the size of the garden. They planted several apple trees, two pear trees, two plum trees, a greengage tree, as well as strawberries, raspberries, gooseberries, blackcurrants and redcurrants. My grandfather had also planted for me an ash tree at the very end of the garden and, by looking at Google Earth, it looks as though it's still there today. Sadly, the large fishpond which I helped my father build when I was about ten seems to have gone.   Family and Friends One of the advantages of having a large garden was that there was a big enough lawn for my father to teach me to play cricket and football. So, although I was an only child, I was never a lonely child. There were always plenty of friends who liked to come and play. I also enjoyed playing board games with my grandad, my mother's father, who lived with us for about five years, and later with my grandmother, my father's mother, who came later to live with us for six years and who died at the age of 86 when I was 16. Having elderly parents living with us for eleven years was not easy for my mother, but she seldom if ever complained, and her example taught me the real meaning of love, a commitment to serving others despite the cost to ourselves. I also got some idea of what it's like to be in your eighties!   Family at Christmas I saw relatively little of other family members as my uncles, aunts and ten cousins all lived too far away for frequent visits. But we did see most of them at Christmas and sometimes during the other school holidays. Because, with one exception, all my cousins were older than I was, Christmas was usually spent with my Auntie Addie – Adelaide actually, but I never heard anyone actually call her that! She was a year or two younger than my mother and had two sons, Brian who was a year older than me, and Geoffrey who was born shortly after the war when Uncle Bert returned from years away fighting in Burma (now known as Myanmar).   We usually alternated where we would spend Christmas, either at our house in Hornchurch or at their prefab in Woodford Green near Walthamstow. Prefabs were prefabricated bungalows introduced after the war to provide housing that could be erected more quickly than by using the usual methods of construction. Originally they were intended to last for, I think, only ten years, but in practice most of them lasted for decades. One of the exciting things about them was that they were all provided with a fridge with a small freezer compartment, so we could have ice-cream whenever we liked. Fridges were a luxury in those days and it was many years later that we ourselves had one. Eileen and I had our first fridge in 1968, six years after we were married. Brian and I had to share a bed every Christmas and I have vivid memories of waking up in the early hours of the morning to see what Santa had left in our ‘stockings' – which were actually pillowcases, as stockings weren't large enough to accommodate the vast number of presents we each received. I don't remember how old I was when I realised that Santa wasn't real, but it must have been well before I left primary school. I do know that some Christians, quite understandably, believe it's wrong to tell their children something which isn't true, fearing especially that, when they finally understand that the whole Santa thing is a myth, they will conclude the Christmas story found in the Bible is a legend too. That's a view that I understand and fully respect, but I can only say that it was never a problem for me, or, as far as I know, for my children and grandchildren for that matter. If we teach our children that what is in the Bible is true, they will soon discover that Father Christmas is nowhere to be found in the Bible, but is just a nice story that, although it isn't true, gave them a lot of fun when they were too young to understand otherwise. But each of us must follow our own conscience in this matter, as we always must when confronted with issues over which Christians disagree. Christmas dinner, as I remember it, was very similar to what most people have today, with one notable exception. I can't remember when we first had turkey, but for several years our celebratory meal was roast chicken. Unlike today, chicken was then very expensive, and Christmas was the only time we had it. At other times our regular Sunday roast was lamb, which, also unlike today, was the cheapest meat you could get. Our typical weekly menu was roast lamb on Sundays, cold lamb on Mondays, minced lamb in the form of shepherd's pie on Tuesdays, and lamb stew with dumplings on Wednesdays. So chicken at Christmas was a real treat! Apart from eating, we spent most of Christmas Day and Boxing Day playing with the games we had received as presents. These were always very competitive and included subuteo football, a form of cricket you could also play on the table, table tennis, darts, and a bagatelle pin board. We also enjoyed heading a balloon to one another and counting how many times we could keep it up. When we later tried it outside with a football we found it was much harder! Another good thing about staying at Auntie Addie's house was that we were able to visit other family members, as three of my aunts lived quite near to her. There was always quite a crowd in the evenings when we all joined together for a party, when we played traditional party games like musical chairs and pass the parcel. Years later I was to discover that some people's idea of a party was a time when you did little more than sit around and drink too much. This shocked me because our parties had never been like that. My parents were both teetotallers and, although most of the rest of the family were not, they respected their wishes and rarely drank in the presence of children and teenagers. Of course, the consumption of alcohol is another of those matters where Christians disagree, but hopefully all would at least agree that abstinence is the best policy in the presence of those who might become addicted. I personally think of myself as an abstainer, but not a total abstainer.  And I'm grateful that, because of the example set by my family, I have always been cautious in these matters and am happy to say that I have never been drunk, something which even some Christians find hard to believe.   Family and Holidays But Christmas was not the only time when I met other family members. There were the summer holidays too. Hotels were too expensive, and we usually spent a couple of weeks away from home staying with family. During my primary school years we went several times to Cowes on the Isle of Wight where my father's sister, Auntie Lil, had a flat overlooking the sea. Her husband, Uncle Ernie, was a lighthouse keeper on the Needles, an impressive rock formation just offshore at the western end of the island. His job required him to live on the lighthouse for several weeks at a time, so sometimes we never saw him at all during the weeks we were on holiday with Auntie Lil. But when he was able to be with us, I remember that he was very generous. We usually had to travel everywhere by bus, but on one occasion he paid for a taxi to take us on a tour of the whole island. Another time, when I was eight, he paid for my father and me to go on a ‘joy-ride', a five minute trip on an aeroplane, an Auster light aircraft with just enough room for Dad and me to sit behind the pilot. I realise that this might not sound very exciting to young people today. Plane travel is so common, and many families take flights abroad for their holidays. But in those days it really was something exceptional. No one in my class at school had ever been in a plane, and my teacher got me to tell them all what it was like. We had only gone up to 1000 feet, but the experience of flying was exhilarating as we looked down on houses that now looked no bigger than a matchbox and were able to see so far into the distance, across to the southern coast of England and beyond. I'm so grateful to Uncle Ernie for making that experience possible for me. (It cost him seven shillings and sixpence which was a lot of money in those days, but which in today's decimal currency equates to 37.5p). Due to his kindness and Auntie Lil's hospitality we always enjoyed our holidays on the Isle of Wight. Another favourite holiday destination, particularly during my early teens, was Canterbury where my mother's sister, another Auntie Lil, lived with her husband Will and her daughter Doreen who was an English teacher in a Grammar School. I remember listening to her discussions with my dad about the nature of language, something I was particularly interested in because by then I was already studying French, Latin, and Greek at school. But more of that later. While in Canterbury we enjoyed visiting its wonderful cathedral and other places of historical interest like the Westgate Tower and the ducking stool where in less enlightened centuries women who scolded their husbands were ducked in the river to teach them a lesson!  We also took advantage of the beautiful countryside around Canterbury and particularly enjoyed walking across the golf course which immediately overlooked my aunt's back garden. Other days were spent taking bus trips to the coastal resorts that lay within easy reach of Canterbury – places like Herne Bay, Margate, and Ramsgate, all lovely places, but nothing of course to compare with the beauty of Devon where I now live! My first holiday in Devon was when I was fifteen – but that's something I'll come back to next time when I talk about my teenage years at church and my life at Brentwood School where I was privileged by God's grace to receive a first-class education.   But finally, I'm conscious that in this talk I've made little mention of God, but I'm reminded that in the book of Esther God isn't mentioned either, yet it's very clear as we read it that he was at work in every detail of the story. So it is with us. His purpose for each of us is different, but he is at work in the ordinary everyday things in our lives, not just in any miracles he may perform for us. So I thank God for the home I grew up in, the family I was part of, and the fun we had together at Christmas and on holiday. These things, I believe, played an important part in my childhood and teenage years enabling me to grow into adulthood, confident to face the future, knowing that God loved me and had a purpose for my life.

Are you wondering how to: ✓ How many days did it take to create a Matterport digital twin of the 400,000 SQ FT Kobe Convention Center? ✓ What was the pricing strategy for such a super-large space? ✓ In addition to Matterport, what other platforms, cameras and software were used for the Kobe Convention Center? Stay tuned! On WGAN-TV Live at 5 at 5 pm ET on Wednesday, 18 December 2024, our guest is: ✓ Meidansha Inc. President Daniel Brown Our topic is: ✓ How to Create a Matterport Digital Twin of a 400,000 SQ FT Convention Center Daniel will guide us through the complexities of documenting the Kobe Convention Center — a project that involved four large buildings, requiring unique problem-solving, multiple technologies, and strategic planning. He'll demonstrate a deeper dive into the tour (than our previous WGAN-TV Live at 5 show), and share insights on the challenges and solutions involved in creating such a large-scale digital twin. Kobe Convention Center Tours by Meidansha Inc. President Daniel Brown 1. Example Tours by Meidansha Inc. President Daniel Brown 2. Kobe Convention Center (400,000 SQ FT) | Tour by https://virtualtour.productions/kobe_convention_center/kkc2024/index.htm 3. Kobe Convention Center is a complex of 4 Large Buildings (Here is one of the buildings.) https://3d.walkthroughs.online/show/?m=HDSJBxoVgvu 4. Kobe International Exhibition Hall 2 | Includes Scans from a Leica BLK360 G1 https://3d.walkthroughs.online/show/?m=V1Tz56PTino Some of the questions I will ask Daniel: 1. Project Origin: How did this project come about? ✓ How did you connect with the tourism board for this project? ✓ Did they approach you or did you reach out to them? ✓ How did you first understand the scale and scope of the project? 2. Quoting and Pricing: How did you approach pricing for such a large project? ✓ What was your pricing strategy for a project of this scale? ✓ Did you charge a fixed fee, bill by the day, charge by the SQ FT? ✓ How did you estimate the number of days or resources required for the project? 3. Understanding the Client's Needs: What were the use cases for the digital twin? ✓ How did the tourism board plan to use the digital twin of the Kobe Convention Center? ✓ Was the goal primarily marketing, or were there operational uses as well? ✓ Were there specific features they wanted to highlight in the tour? 4. Tools and Technology: What software and hardware were used to create the digital twin? ✓ Which cameras did you use? (e.g., Matterport Pro2, Leica BLK360, DSLR, 360 camera) ✓ What software platforms did you use? ✓ How did you decide which tools were best for the project's requirements? 5. Problem Solving: What challenges did you encounter with such a large space? ✓ What were the unique challenges with scanning a 400,000 square foot space? ✓ How did you manage large open spaces that may not have many visual reference points? ✓ Were there any lighting challenges in different parts of the convention center? ✓ How did you overcome GPS or connectivity issues while scanning? 6. Workflow and Execution: How did you organize the workflow for this large-scale project? ✓ How many scanning days did this project require? ✓ How did you ensure continuity when scanning different sections of the building over time? ✓ What was your approach for balancing speed and quality in such a large project? 7. Managing Multiple Technologies: How did you integrate various tools and platforms? ✓ How did you manage the use of multiple platforms (Matterport, 3DVista, MPEmbed, Google Earth)? ✓ Did you use different tools for different sections of the building? ✓ How did you maintain consistency between different types of media (3D scans, photos, 360 panoramas)? 8. Deliverables: What was delivered to the client and in what format? ✓ What were the final deliverables for the project? ✓ How did you package the tour for easy use by the client? ✓ Did you provide training or support on how to use and share the digital twin? 9. Client Feedback and Results: What was the client's response to the final product? ✓ How did the client react to the completed tour? ✓ Were there any follow-up requests or additional features they wanted? ✓ How has the tourism board been using the digital twin since its delivery? 10. Lessons Learned: What would you do differently if you could start the project again? ✓ Were there any surprises during the project that you didn't anticipate? ✓ Looking back, is there anything you would change about how you approached the project? ✓ What advice would you give to someone taking on a project of this scale for the first time? Why This Matters for Real Estate Photographers For real estate photographers used to documenting homes of 3,500 square feet, tackling a 400,000 square foot project introduces entirely new challenges and complexities. From dealing with large open spaces to managing multiple technologies, Daniel's experience can offer invaluable lessons for anyone looking to expand their business into larger commercial projects.

Did you hear about the weird holes scientists found at the bottom of Lake Michigan? Divers exploring the lake stumbled across perfectly round pits that look like something out of a sci-fi movie. At first, people joked it might be aliens or underwater crop circles, but the truth is still pretty mysterious. Scientists think the holes might be formed by methane gas escaping from beneath the lakebed, or maybe by strong underwater currents eroding the sand. What's even cooler is that these holes are home to unique ecosystems with strange microorganisms. It's like a whole underwater world we're just beginning to explore!

Jonas Hübotter, PhD student at ETH Zurich's Institute for Machine Learning, discusses his groundbreaking research on test-time computation and local learning. He demonstrates how smaller models can outperform larger ones by 30x through strategic test-time computation and introduces a novel paradigm combining inductive and transductive learning approaches. Using Bayesian linear regression as a surrogate model for uncertainty estimation, Jonas explains how models can efficiently adapt to specific tasks without massive pre-training. He draws an analogy to Google Earth's variable resolution system to illustrate dynamic resource allocation based on task complexity. The conversation explores the future of AI architecture, envisioning systems that continuously learn and adapt beyond current monolithic models. Jonas concludes by proposing hybrid deployment strategies combining local and cloud computation, suggesting a future where compute resources are allocated based on task complexity rather than fixed model size. This research represents a significant shift in machine learning, prioritizing intelligent resource allocation and adaptive learning over traditional scaling approaches.

City storm drain after heavy rain. Why cede the sewers to Pennywise and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (heroes in a half-shell, turtle power)? After a large storm, it can sound pretty great down there — a symphony of spluts and gurgles.  Look, obviously, no one is climbing into a drain with their futon to enjoy the sounds; because, claustrophobia. So, in this episode, we are bringing the storm drain to you. And while you're "down there," why not focus on something other than the news or your social media feed (which is just the news of the world and your family's **** takes). Go explore Edinburgh of the Seven Seas on StreetView or visit other obscure places that look temptingly off the grid. I have been obsessed with Tristan da Cunha's isolation for decades after stumbling upon her on Google Earth a few decades ago. For the longest time Tristan da Cunha has only been observable (online) from an overhead vantage; until some awesome person captured and uploaded it recently.   BTW if any of y'all live on or know an affable person that lives on a remote ass island (Adak, Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station, etc) that could record some sound to share with this show, please message me.

Last March, SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket into space from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. It carried more than 40 payloads on board, including a satellite called MethaneSAT, which was designed to track methane emissions around the globe. Cutting methane emissions is a critical step toward reducing the rise of global temperatures that climate change is spreading to communities.In this episode, we have two stories about how data centers – and the AI they enable – are helping to mitigate the invisible threats of heat and air pollution around the world, particularly for vulnerable populations.From satellites to tree canopies, we ask how AI can help protect human health, reduce air pollution, and temper the urban heat island effect in our cities.Guests: Mansi Kansal, Cool Roofs product manager at GoogleDr. Monica Bharel, clinical lead for public sector health at GoogleKarin Tuxen-Bettman, Google Earth outreach managerMillie Chu Baird, VP, Office of Chief Scientist, Environmental Defense FundFatima Luna, chief resilience officer, City of TucsonWatch our complementary documentary about how Google's data centers are helping make the invisible threats of air pollution and methane emissions visible.
