In Tucson, Arizona, Cold War era war profiteer Hughes Aircraft polluted an aquifer with chemical waste from a manufacturing facility that poisoned the largely Mexican-American community and desert ecosystem living above. The community responded with one of the first environmental justice campaigns in the United States. In our latest, we talk with Professor Sunaura Taylor about her new book “Disabled Ecologies: Lessons from a Wounded Desert” that details the pollution, the community campaign and the networks of disability, both human and wild, that are created when ecosystems are corrupted and profoundly altered. Bio// Sunaura Taylor is Assistant Professor of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management at the University of California, Berkeley, and author of the American Book Award–winning Beasts of Burden: Animal and Disability Liberation, and “Disabled Ecologies: Lessons from a Wounded Desert.” ——— Outro- “Green and Red Blues” by Moody Links// + “Disabled Ecologies: Lessons from a Wounded Desert” (https://bit.ly/3wYaEku) Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast +Our rad website: https://greenandredpodcast.org/ +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: https://www.laborradionetwork.org/ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/w4Cgpe9G) Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.

Edward joins the show to discuss his novel, his experience in the Space Shuttle Simulator, and what would really happen if some of our fears came to light. ****Before taking the plunge in 2004 into full-time writing, technologist turned author Edward M. Lerner spent thirty years in high tech at every level from engineer to senior vice president. Many novels later, he's glad (and still just slightly surprised) that he leaped.He worked at such techie havens as Bell Labs, Hughes Aircraft, and Northrop Grumman—and at a long-gone start-up of which you've likely never heard. He delivered high-tech products and systems to government agencies (including NASA, the FBI, and the Defense Department) and commercial customers as varied as AT&T and McDonald's. Along the way, he visited a satellite factory, flew the space shuttle training simulator, wandered about the space station trainer, and watched a space shuttle launch. Sooner or later, all that experience shows up in his fiction.Lerner's novels run the gamut from technothrillers like Energized (solar-power satellites), Small Miracles (medical nanotech), and Fools' Experiments (AI) to traditional science fiction, like Dark Secret and his InterstellarNet series, to (with NY Times bestselling author Larry Niven) the space epic Fleet of Worlds series. Ed's fiction has been nominated for Hugo, Prometheus, and Locus awards, and won the inaugural Canopus Award.Ed's short fiction has appeared in major science fiction magazines, anthologies, and collections. His short story “Grandpa?” became the award-winning short film “The Grandfather Paradox.”He also writes nonfiction, most notably Trope-ing the Light Fantastic: The Science Behind the Fiction. He also teaches the occasional writing class, blogs regularly on the state of science and SF. He has spoken at, among venues, the Library of Congress and the US Naval Academy. His fiction has been translated into ten languages.The varied career(s) didn't just happen: Ed's education is almost as eclectic, with degrees in physics, computer science, and business.Lerner is a member of the Science-fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and SIGMA (not an acronym, and sometimes known as “The Science Fiction Think Tank”).Lerner was born in Chicago and has lived in Illinois, New Jersey, and New York. He now resides in Virginia.

Occasionally an artist is commissioned to create a work that advances their skills to such a degree that no project seems unreachable going forward. Such was the case with De Carter Ray's History of Transportation, created in 2017 for C. Graham Berwind III's residence. The original work on which the project was based was designed by Jean Dupas and constructed for the transatlantic ship the S.S. Normandie in 1935. The original took 2 years to make; Carter Ray had only eight months. Requested as a feature for her client's dining room wall, Carter Ray's drawings were followed by photography, then scanning into a computer. Ropes, guns, anchors, chains, rigging and carbuncles were all carved. Longer rigging lines were carved 1/16 of an inch and filled with enamel paint. For the entire project, the artist had to work in reverse and flip the piece sideways on an easel in order to reach it. The piece was done in stages. Each panel design was carefully taken apart, foreground to background, one item at a time. All of the Van Dyke brown had to be painted first; then the hand painted flags on the sails; the birds in front of the sails; the shading on sails and mastheads; the rigging holding the masts; the long hand painted lines with brushes; the gold paint over that; and then Manetti gold leaf. Each layer had to dry eight hours minimum in order to prevent the paint from peeling and lifting later. The finer details were hand painted with a paint brush, and the rest air-brushed with an Iwita dual action micro airbrush. Frame construction and installation presented additional learning curves. Living in an earthquake state, Carter Ray wanted to ensure the piece wouldn't be held too tightly and break from strain. The frame needed to look lighter than air yet be supported from the bottom. She designed clips to hold the piece on top and a brass bar that could support 1100 pounds on the bottom. The art was divided into four panels, each piece 36 inches wide by 83 3/8 inches tall. The overall finished width spans 12 feet wide and almost 7 feet tall, totaling 95 square feet. Creg Oosterhart, project designer, said “De, if you ever work for a new client, and they question your abilities, just show them a photograph of this, and say, ‘I designed and manufactured every aspect of this project- start to finish.' It will remove all doubt.” Carter Ray's history includes working as a draftsperson for Hughes Aircraft in El Segundo, California, where she learned to draw landing gears and correct blueprints using a T square and a triangle. She also worked for printing companies, at one time drawing illustrations of food and woks for a book titled Madame Wu's Art of Chinese Cooking. In combination with some of these early skills, the artist marries client inspiration with her own spectacular vision for a project resulting in stunning flat glass creations that grace homes and businesses around the globe. Self-taught, her skill set includes carved, etched, stained, leaded, painted, and mosaic glass, as well as frit painted and slumped glass, and beveled windows. She is currently experimenting with fused glass and its incorporation into her work. States Carter Ray: “The making of art glass is my life's work. Clients have an idea at the studio, and we bring it to fruition. It is all about process, finding the right inspiration for a particular subject. Usually, the art requested has a purpose. I will be given a space to work with, a subject matter, and the inspiration to fill it. My job is to listen. Take all the elements in to consideration, put a different spin on the ball and hand it back to them in a way that is workable, and attractive, hopefully better than what was originally conceived.” Carter Ray established Classical Glass Studio in Huntington Beach, California, in 1983, and brings over 32 years of experience to her customer's art glass needs.
Lighting designer and owner of Images by Lighting Ray Thompson is here today to talk about storytelling with lighting for events and designing lighting for lux weddings. He has over 30 years of experience and an amazing passion for creative design. He also pioneered the modern event lighting industry. His company has created the lighting for events at major corporations like Adobe, Taco Bell, Gillette, NFL Super Bowl and many more. He has also been involved in premieres and events for major movies and entertainers like HBO, DreamWorks Pictures, Disney/Buena Vista, Elton John and more. In this episode, Ray shares how he got started and was able to transition his passion into a career and an award-winning company. He also talks about the evolution of lighting, changes in technology, tools smaller designers can use to create amazing lighting, how he finds inspiration and more. Show Highlights: [00:15] Ray Thompson is one of the true icons in the industry for what he does with lighting design. [00:34] Lighting is critical to telling a story no matter what you're doing. [00:49] Many years ago, Ray began lecturing and educating people about lighting and what can be done with lighting and where events were going. [01:28] When Ray was a kid, he was always good with science and math. His dad owned a vending machine company, and Ray had access to the broken machines, so he would create lighting installations in his bedroom. [01:59] He would even sequence lights to music. He wasn't sure how to make a career out of this, so he went into electrical engineering. [02:55] He moved to LA and was an electrical engineer for Hughes Aircraft. [03:11] While working at Hughes Aircraft, Ray had created some lighting sculptures in his apartment, which a well-known event professional saw and he tells the story of how that led to building a clientele. [04:01] Ray shares how one of his first big breaks came from Allan Carr. [05:26] Once props and scenery became decorations for parties, lighting also became a natural element. [06:19] Lighting is a dance from the moment you enter an event. Light creates an experience and storyline through color, texture, and intensity. [07:47] Ray is very spiritual. He loves color and the study of chakra and color on your being. [11:36] Ray directs the events, and lights can be used to create total theater for events. [14:33] We discuss Ray's concept of the relation between lighting and “the choreography of emotion.” [16:31] Ray likes to be involved early on in the design process and discusses why. [16:56] We learn the behind the scenes process behind a project from proposal to end design. [22:41] Messaging for brands like Tesla involves a unique lighting design approach for a product reveal. [23:38] Ray tells the story behind designing the lighting for the wedding for a king in Dubai. [27:09] We get to hear about lighting projects such as the Governor's Ball for the Emmys, the Oscars Green Room, the Super Bowl, and studio and movie premieres. [31:00] He has worked with very high-end entertainers from Elton John to Katy Perry. [32:19] Ray shares his secrets for production efficiency and profitability that he's learned over the years. [35:11] Ray shares how lighting technology has evolved since he began in the industry. [38:49] LED screens will get cheaper and cheaper for video walls. [39:24] Ray reveals the best way for industry professionals to work with lighting designers. [40:22] Battery packed pin spots and battery packed uplights are great cost-effective and simple ways for planners and designers to notch things up a level. [41:07] Going to concerts is inspiration and relaxation for Ray. He also gets inspired by the very creative producers that he works with. [42:42] Andy thought the video screens and the lighting at the Ed Sheeran concert were amazing. [43:42] Ray loves what he does.

As a self-described latchkey kid growing up in Los Angeles, Dr. John Halamka says riding his bike to Raytheon, Hughes Aircraft and Aerojet – and pulling integrated circuits and manuals from their dumpsters to learn how they worked – lured him into the world of technology. Not long after, he started developing his first healthcare-related IT system, which he sold to UCLA when he was 14.Those experiences kicked-off a career where Dr. Halamka has worked at the intersection of technology and healthcare for five decades. Trained in emergency medicine and medical informatics, Dr. Halamka has served in many roles, including chief information officer at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center for more than 20 years, where he oversaw digital health relationships with industry, academia, and governments worldwide. As the International Healthcare Innovation Professor at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Halamka helped the George W. Bush administration, Obama administration, and governments around the world plan their health care information strategies.In his current role as president of the Mayo Clinic Platform, Dr. Halamka leads a portfolio of platform businesses focused on transforming health care by leveraging artificial intelligence, connected health care devices and a network of trusted partners.In this episode of Healthcare is Hard, Dr. Halamka shares his perspective on the evolution of digital health and where the industry is headed through an in-depth conversation with Keith Figlioli. The topics they cover include:Mayo's platform play. As president of the Mayo Clinic Platform, Dr. Halamka spends time explaining the organization's view about what constitutes a platform and why it's important. He describes it as an ecosystem that's built to foster innovation at an extraordinarily fast pace. He contrasts the approach to other healthcare organizations where building collaboration is hard, and discusses how the Mayo Clinic Platform makes it easy for innovators to find mentors, access millions of de-identified patient records to test new technology, tap into thousands of clinical experts to address a problem, and so much more.The arc of healthcare IT. Dr. Halamka explains innovation in digital health – especially through the implementation of Meaningful Use over the past decade – with a quote from Winston Churchill: “Americans will always do the right thing. After they've tried everything else.” While it took a long time to arrive, he does not lament the journey and expresses optimism for the current state and future of digital health.Guardrails for AI and ML. Much like Google Cloud's Aashima Gupta described in a past Healthcare is Hard episode, Dr. Halamka talks about the need for a standard set of metrics to measure the performance of AI models in healthcare. He views his career as seven or eight distinct periods of achievement including events like standardizing vocabularies or moving to APIs, and believes the next period will be about creating the guidelines, guardrails and transparency for machine learning in healthcare, and using it ubiquitously across the globe. Convergence of AI and ML models. Dr. Halamka says he is seeing an amazing array of startup activity creating models for niche purposes on multimodal data. He says there will be a huge number of model providers and talks about the importance of platform players being able to bring them together. He says data liquidity and a huge ecosystem of players coming together will be revolutionary in the ability for people to navigate their health care.To hear Dr. Halamka and Keith talk about these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for Insiders.

For our third and final episode of Eyes on Earth from the September launch of Landsat 9, we hear from Virginia Norwood. She blazed a trail for women in remote sensing in the 1960s and 70s while working for Hughes Aircraft, a contractor for NASA. Norwood is known as the “Mother of Landsat” for her design of the Multispectral Scanner, or MSS, the sensor used to image the Earth's surface by early Landsat satellites. Norwood met her fans during a Q&A a few hours after the launch sponsored by the USGS and Ladies of Landsat. The episode also features an appearance from Kass Green, who founded a company in the 1980s that used Landsat data to map landscape change.
My life-long attraction to the “exotic” began when Miss Trosen, my 5th grade teacher, introduced our class to the topic of evolution, complete with glossy illustrations of lumbering Neanderthals in hot pursuit of a woolly mammoth. This pivotal event, coincident with the receipt of my next-door neighbors' moldering stack of National Geographics, was all I needed to plot my future. For several years, I envisioned myself scaling Egyptian pyramids and hacking my way through the Amazon until realizing I'd be better off starting small, with local excursions. To that end, at age fifteen, I won parental approval to work as a teen model for the May Company, a large department store a mere three miles from my high school, but within view of the distant shores of beckoning adulthood. Emboldened, I lobbied for a chance to cruise Hollywood Boulevard on Saturday nights and audition to dance as a Gazzarri's “go-go girl” on the Sunset Strip. Only to be denied permission for both in no uncertain terms. As a last-ditch attempt, I hatched the preposterous idea of finishing high school at a Swiss boarding school. But, that, too, fell on totally deaf ears. My strivings took an academic turn as soon as I completed my first Anthropology class at UC Berkeley. Peoples and places I'd never heard of—the Tiwi of Southern Australia, the Trobriand Islanders of Polynesia and others—revealed how each life, each culture possesses an integrity of its own, as well as the keys to universal human truths. They and Anthropology called to me. Still eager to jump outside my cultural comfort zone, I joined my first true love, an archaeologist, on a six-month excavation in the Peruvian altiplano. Never did it dawn on me that our home-to-be might lack electricity and that the hair dryer I'd packed was nothing but dead weight. By the time I conducted my own Ph.D. research in a remote Maya Mam village in Guatemala years later, I was a far more seasoned and sobered fieldworker—traveling with only bare bone provisions, no hair dryer in tow. Throughout my undergraduate studies at UC Berkeley, graduate studies at Harvard University and UCLA, and early professional assignments, I repeatedly ventured into unknown territory—from interning at a San Francisco half-way house for paroled San Quentin felons to teaming with Nader's Raiders in Washington, D.C. to consulting on six major-release Hollywood films. I conducted cross-cultural marketing research for an Italian distillery famous for its “aperitvo digestif.” And, closer to home, hired on with an organizational development firm consulting to a Hughes Aircraft engineering division. Think of these eclectic postings as “urban anthropology.” I do. A fertile training ground for what was to come. My seamless, if sometimes unorthodox career path has lead me to my current incarnation as a nonfiction book author and a corporate historian—vocations that fit me to a tee and variously tap my expertise as an anthropologist, researcher, interviewer, writer and photographer. Life's unplanned detours have also inspired me to reach out to breast cancer patients and professionals across the United States as a patient ambassador and to teach English to Maya university students as a volunteer in Guatemala. But no matter where I am—from the far-flung corners of the globe to my own neighborhood—what I have come to value above all is that "exotic," unexpected wonder is everywhere, right before my very eyes.

He wakes up in the middle of the night with several topics in his head. He learned how to write in the dark and his wife is very happy of that lol. He sleeps with paper and pen next to his bedside." That tells me that Edward is so happy about his transition. ALL ABOUT EDWARD: Edward was a physicist and computer scientist. After thirty years in industry, working at every level from individual technical contributor to senior vice president, he is now writes full-time. Edward writes science fiction and techno-thrillers, now and again throwing in a straight science or technology article. Edward is an Author of the InterstellarNet series / Coauthor of the Fleet of Worlds series with Larry Niven. Young visions of becoming literally a rocket scientist morphed into a degree in physics. Mid-degree, he had an epiphany: he was good at physics but intuitive with computers. Physics was a terrific foundation for his newly chosen field—and later on, of course, for writing SF. Edward computer career began at Bell Labs, where his assignments dealt with telephone switching systems and design for ultra-reliability. Edward moved to Honeywell, entering engineering management and an evening MBA program. The work at Honeywell involved automated building controls, real-time systems for which my Bell Labs training was tremendously valuable. Suddenly, there was more time than he had in years for recreational reading. With more to read, he found much to criticize. His supportive wife, Ruth, eventually suggested that if he thought he could do better, he should. And so, circuitously, Edward began his writing career … Significant traces of his Bell Labs and Honeywell experience appear in my first novel, but what's most interesting in hindsight is how Probe foreshadowed his later career. By the time Probe appeared in print, he had changed employers, and his state of residence, twice. Edward was then newly arrived at Hughes Aircraft, one of a team chasing a large NASA contract. (They won.) While NASA personnel and settings play key roles in Probe, it was completed before his first NASA encounter. Edward never met any rocket scientists, but he did spend several fascinating years developing parts of the Earth Observing System. Edward got to know an astronaut. He even flew the shuttle training simulator twice, which was great fun. The downside of NASA contracting was its impact on his writing. Edward squeezed some time for some short stories, two of which appeared in Analog. As his engineering management career took off, there was little room for hobbies. On the plus side, the next several year in which few words of fiction were committed to electron produced a stockpile of source material for future stories. Edward eventually left Hughes to explore the alien worlds of start-ups and the Internet bubble. 1999 found Edward restless in his day job. A sabbatical spent writing recharged his batteries and produced a flurry of story sales (to Analog and Artemis). In 2001, it was back to engineering management. It turns out that the writing bug is persistent. After two more years in engineering and project management more telecom and government contracting work, Edward took the plunge into writing full time. For the next several years about half his writing was collaborative, from which the visible result is the five-novel Fleet of World series with Larry Niven. Larry is also done nonfiction, putting a straight-science slant on the research that underpins both completed & upcoming fiction. Many of his nonfiction articles and essays are collected, updated, and expanded in Frontiers of Space, Time, and Thought: Essays and Stories on the Big Questions.

Is the moon made of cheese? Of course not. But can a person walk on the surface? Not too long ago, we couldn’t answer that question. But with the help of Gladys Perkins, we soon figured out that we could send a team to the moon and have them safely land on its surface. There was a time when the United States was behind the Soviets in the space race. Everyone had their sights set on the moon. Andrew Chaikin describes NASA’s disastrous Ranger missions. Erik Conway explains how complicated the trajectory calculations were—and to top it all off, why they often couldn’t be done in advance. To succeed, NASA’s new Surveyor program would need the capability to adjust trajectory mid-flight. Gladys Perkins made those calculations possible. But her part in this story hasn’t been well documented. Our editor Kim Huang recounts how difficult it was to get details of her story. And Vahe Peroomian explains how important it is to get these histories told to inspire the next generation to take on moonshot projects.Finding information about Gladys Perkins was tough. We found some breadcrumbs to her story on this Hughes Aircraft blog.If you want to read up on some of our research on Gladys Perkins, you can check out all our bonus material over at redhat.com/commandlineheroes.

Jerry Jendusa grew up working in the Waukesha pharmacy his dad operated for 33 years. It was there where he learned about being a business owner and having employees, customers, and a work ethic. So it was no surprise that Jendusa had the entrepreneurial itch. The surprise was the industry in which he chose to start his business. Jendusa dabbled in home remodeling, re-sealing floors, and painting during college. Then he spent a short time as a bank loan officer after graduating. He considered doing pharmaceutical sales, but a job at Franklin-based Electronic Cable Specialists introduced him to the industry in which he’d achieve entrepreneurial success: aviation. Jendusa founded EMTEQ in 1996 with a partner, Jim Harasha, who had worked at Hughes Aircraft. The company pioneered alternative lighting with LEDs on circuit boards at a time when aircraft cabins were still being lit with fluorescent and incandescent bulbs. “Back in 1996, LEDs were not in use at all. The only type of LED might

Also, encouragement for YOU to believe the LORD Yeshua (Jesus) to perform great and mighty MIRACLES of HEALING in your life … or at your workplace. ________________________________________ HEALING MIRACLES IN INDUSTRY MARKETPLACE HEALING MIRACLES I want to talk to you today about miracles of healing in industry―the workplace―or, the marketplace. I mentioned on a previous podcast titled “Ideas and Associates” that one of the members on my Board of Directors was a man named Magdi Girgis (Mike Girgis) who was from Egypt, and his father was the third wealthiest man in Egypt. His father actually had more power politically than Gamal Abdel Nasser did when Nasser was President. My friend Mike paid to be smuggled out of Egypt and through Syria by the Druze; and then finally got out of Syria to the United States. He was on the blacklist in Egypt, allegedly for trying to Christianize the nation. In other words, he loved Jesus. Mike ultimately worked in the Engineering Department at Hughes Aircraft. Several of the men that I knew who worked there attended Bible studies every morning and at Noon lunch hour. There was a real awakening at the Hughes Aircraft, Fullerton plant as well as the Hughes division near the Los Angeles Airport (LAX). They would meet early before they went to work at eight in the morning and hold Bible Studies in the engineering office. They had Bible studies in the morning before work and also at lunchtime. One of the brothers that I knew in that group was a prophet―he was a real man of God―a real prophet of God. His little daughter was born with club feet. I think when the girl was around seven years of age, Jack took his daughter to a shoe store and told the salesman he wanted to buy a pair of shoes for his daughter. Well … the salesman looked at the girls feet―club feet―and saw they were turned in. He said, “We don't sell corrective shoes here.” And Jack said to the salesman, “That's okay. Jesus is going to heal her.” So he told him what size shoes he wanted for his daughter. So the salesman pulled the shoes from the shelf and got ready to package them up so the father could take the shoes home. He said, “No, I want to put them on her now. Jesus is going to heal her now.” And the salesman was really flabbergasted. He couldn't believe that God still does miracles today. So Jack takes the shoes over to his daughter, sits the little girl down, and prays over her; and all of a sudden one of the feet straightens right out … then other foot went right into position. They became normal in position and alignment. Jack put the shoes on his little daughter and they walked out of the shoe store. That's the kind of MIRACLES that happened regularly with the Believers at Hughes Aircraft. They invited me into minister there; and the second time I went to to preach at Hughes Aircraft in Fullerton, the Lord had already been working―not only in the Engineering Department―but out in the factory. This second time there was standing room only as I was ministering. During one of the Noon prayer meetings, a fellow named Walter Meisenbach came up to my friends and said to them, “What is this 'Born-Again' stuff you guys keep talking about?” (Just a little background here) … Walter had been a hunchback for 15 years. He was in serious pain every day―all the time―continually. So my friends shared the good news of Messiah Jesus with him; and Walter received Jesus as his Messiah and was 'Born-Again' right there in the Noon time Bible study. Then they laid their hands on Walter and asked the Lord Jesus to heal Walter … to deliver Walter from being a hunch back from this bent over condition he had had for 15 years. Instantly they heard “pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.” They could hear the vertebrae in Walter's spine popping. They could hear it crack. Walter straightens right up and has a perfectly normal spine. When Walter goes home that night, his wife actually was near the door when he came in … and she looked at him and saw the shine on his face: he was smiling! Not only was Walter joyous because he had met Jesus―but he was joyous because he was no longer carrying around that pain he had suffered with for 15 years―plus he was standing straight up. Well, this had a tremendous effect on the whole family. It was some time later, a year or two, that I was invited to preach in a High School in Orange County, California. There were so many drug problems in the public schools that I had been invited by several public schools to come minister to the students. They wanted―and needed―help. They didn't even care if it was Jesus that helped them! No prayer or Bible study allowed in schools, but please send Jesus. We need help. While I was ministering in one of the high schools―I didn't know who was there―but I mentioned about Walter Meisenbach. I had felt impressed by the LORD to talk about Walter Meisenbach. And one of the girls spoke up and said, “Oh, that's my daddy. Let me tell you the rest of the story.” And she began to tell what happened at the home when her father came home from work right after his healing. These were some of the kind of MIRACLES that happened with the Believers at Hughes Aircraft … where people would just get together and pray and read the Bible. Men and women, engineers, secretaries, factory workers, reading the word of God, worshiping God, and allowing the Holy Spirit to come into their midst as the Messiah Jesus would do MIRACLES. REMEMBER The Holy Spirit is God's agent on Earth to supply the resurrection power of Yeshua. That's all it takes, my friend. Don't make it too hard. Miracles in industry … miracles in marketing ... miracles in business ... miracles in education! God even does MIRACLES in Church and Synagogue … anywhere. My friend, God said in Jeremiah 33:3, “Call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty (unsearchable) things you do not know." I trust this message has helped you today.

So the salesman pulled the shoes from the shelf and got ready to package them up so the father could take the shoes home. He said, “No, I want to put them on her now. Jesus is going to heal her now.” And the salesman was really flabbergasted. He couldn't believe that God still does miracles today. So Jack takes the shoes over to his daughter, sits the little girl down, and prays over her; and all of a sudden one of the feet straightens right out … then other foot went right into position. They became normal in position and alignment. Jack put the shoes on his little daughter and they walked out of the shoe store. That's the kind of MIRACLES that happened regularly with the Believers at Hughes Aircraft. They invited me into minister there; and the second time I went to to preach at Hughes Aircraft in Fullerton, the Lord had already been working―not only in the Engineering Department―but out in the factory. This second time there was standing room only as I was ministering. During one of the Noon prayer meetings, a fellow named Walter Meisenbach came up to my friends and said to them, “What is this 'Born-Again' stuff you guys keep talking about?” (Just a little background here) … Walter had been a hunchback for 15 years. He was in serious pain every day―all the time―continually. So my friends shared the good news of Messiah Jesus with him; and Walter received Jesus as his Messiah and was 'Born-Again' right there in the Noon time Bible study. Then they laid their hands on Walter and asked the Lord Jesus to heal Walter … to deliver Walter from being a hunch back from this bent over condition he had had for 15 years. Instantly they heard “pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.” They could hear the vertebrae in Walter's spine popping. They could hear it crack. Walter straightens right up and has a perfectly normal spine. When Walter goes home that night, his wife actually was near the door when he came in … and she looked at him and saw the shine on his face: he was smiling! Not only was Walter joyous because he had met Jesus―but he was joyous because he was no longer carrying around that pain he had suffered with for 15 years―plus he was standing straight up. Well, this had a tremendous effect on the whole family. It was some time later, a year or two, that I was invited to preach in a High School in Orange County, California. There were so many drug problems in the public schools that I had been invited by several public schools to come minister to the students. They wanted―and needed―help. They didn't even care if it was Jesus that helped them! No prayer or Bible study allowed in schools, but please send Jesus. We need help. While I was ministering in one of the high schools―I didn't know who was there―but I mentioned about Walter Meisenbach. I had felt impressed by the LORD to talk about Walter Meisenbach. And one of the girls spoke up and said, “Oh, that's my daddy. Let me tell you the rest of the story.” And she began to tell what happened at the home when her father came home from work right after his healing. These were some of the kind of MIRACLES that happened with the Believers at Hughes Aircraft … where people would just get together and pray and read the Bible. Men and women, engineers, secretaries, factory workers, reading the word of God, worshiping God, and allowing the Holy Spirit to come into their midst as the Messiah Jesus would do MIRACLES. REMEMBER The Holy Spirit is God's agent on Earth to supply the resurrection power of Yeshua. That's all it takes, my friend. Don't make it too hard. Miracles in industry … miracles in marketing ... miracles in business ... miracles in education! God even does MIRACLES in Church and Synagogue … anywhere. My friend, God said in Jeremiah 33:3, “Call to me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty (unsearchable) things you do not know.” I trust this message has helped you today.

You will learn the importance of enlisting KEY associates in your work for the LORD … and also how MIRACLES are resident in and upon IDEAS from God. ______________________________________ IDEAS, MIRACLES & ASSOCIATESKEY ASSOCIATES FOR KEY IDEAS I want to talk to you today about "Ideas, Miracles and Associates." In the Tanakh (the Hebrew Scriptures), the Bible tells us in Proverbs 13:20 "He who walks with wise men shall be wise, but a companion of fools shall be destroyed." If you want to improve your intellect, your acumen, the interaction of your intelligence, plus augment your intellectual abilities ... then choose out WISE associates. I pray for myself and my children (to the 4th Generation) every day that God will give us His choice of associates. My friend, you should want only God's choice of associates for you. That doesn't mean you don't love other people. That doesn't mean you don't interact with people other than your close associates―those that are your KEY associates―but you want your KEY associates to be God's choice for you. Years ago, when I first started a nonprofit corporation, I prayed that God would lead me in the selection of Directors. I had several Directors through the years, and every one of them was a Godly person. However, I remember three in particular. One was named Ed Lindquist. He had been associated with a large advertising agency in Detroit (USA), and they did lots of advertising for Ford Motor Company. Ed Lindquist is Co-Founder of EXPAT Marketing Group centered in Ecuador. Another of my Associates was Al Hagen, who was Director of Marketing and Advertising for Toyota in the United States. I held Bible studies in Al Hagen's home, as well as our friend Hiroshi Imai. One time while teaching in Hiroshi's home I asked him privately to remove the Buddha idol in his living room, as it would be offensive to God. He obeyed, and God manifested His healing power. A lady with a tumor on her wrist the size of a golf ball was sitting on the stairway leading to the second floor (the house was filled with so many people). The LORD Jesus healed her and instantly the tumor dissolved. After Mr. Imai had seen the MIRACLE working power of God, the next day he went out to the garage where he had taken the Buddha idol to destroy it. When he destroyed the Buddha idol with a hammer, he heard the voices of demons crying out. Another of my Directors was Magdi Girgis, (Mike Girgis)―my close Egyptian friend―whose father was one of the third wealthiest men in Egypt. His father had more political power than Gamal Abdel Nasser did when he was President of Egypt. My friend Magdi had to be smuggled out of Egypt because he became a Christian and they had him on the blacklist for "trying to Christianize the nation." He finally paid some Druze to transport him through Syria ... and finally he was able to obtain citizenship in USA. Magdy Girgis was educated and was an engineer, but he couldn't get a job in USA because he had never worked. He had no work experience. He was wealthy. His family had a stable of 18 automobiles at their home, and his father was third wealthiest man in Egypt. The first job Magdy Girgis worked in USA was cleaning out restrooms in gasoline (petrol) stations. But ultimately he finally got work and became an engineer with Hughes Aircraft. These three Directors were KEY asociates to me. We didn't spend a lot of time together, but the time we spent was very critical and crucial. Ed Linquist gave a large contribution to our corporation; however, I gave it back to him and I told him, "Ed, for some reason God wants me to give this money back to you." It's important to obey the Holy Spirit. Money isn't everything. The whole world is not about money. The whole world is about God. "You cannot serve God and mammon (money)." That scripture informs us to put God first. There's nothing evil with money … just like there's nothing evil with television. It's what you do with it that's important. The Bible never says money is evil. It says, “the LOVE of money is the root of all evil.” So I listened to God and gave that money back to Ed Lindquist, and he used it to start his own corporation which was very successful with the LORD's blessing. You see, the money was NOT for the corporation of which I was President (and still am). We need to be sensitive. We need to discern the will of God in matters. We need to also discern what God wants us to receive and what God does NOT want us to receive. Every day, I ask God to give me discernment over people, things and situations. You need discernment, my friend, because IF you are a Believer in Messiah Jesus, YOU are “in the world, but not of it.” If you know the LORD, if you've received Yeshua as your Messiah―been born again (the Spirit of God lives in you)―you are in the world, but NOT of the world (John 17:6-16). So you need God's discernment. You need the discernment of the Holy Spirit! I had felt led to start a non-profit corporation as a result of a vision I had while I was preaching in the open air one time. It was not an ocular vision, but a mental vision. I had such a great anointing on me (probably been fasting). While I was preaching my heart was crying out to God. I was reaching multitudes―reaching thousands just that day―ministering in the open air. But my heart was crying out. “Lord, how can I reach the whole world?” God spoke to me while I was preaching to those crowds. God answered me, “Through the media.” So I started a corporation named Ruach Advertising. Ruach in Hebrew means “spirit.” I had different ideas … plus the LORD gave me different ideas. Remember, in the last two podcasts we talked about being a good steward of ideas. We talked also about IDEAS and MIRACLES. In this podcast teaching we're talking about IDEAS and ASSOCIATES. One time I had an idea concerning “Billboards for Jesus.” That IDEA pertained to supplying people with blueprints and building instructions for putting up their own billboards. The Lord gave me this idea, but I didn't really know how to implement it, so I called together a group of men. Mike Girgis came together with several other men and several engineers from Hughes Aircraft. One of the men at Hughes Aircraft in the engineering department was also a cartoonist. I shared my idea with them. We met only for about an hour; but at the close of the meeting each man had a different assignment to do. We met again in two weeks, and it was fantastic what these men put together. As a result, I now had seven different plans for “Do-it-yourself” billboards, and these were all engineered for safety. I contacted another Spirit-filled engineer who was head of the Placentia, California Planning Department; he was a Civil Engineer. He approved these plans and put his stamp of approval on them and certified them. They were all safe and sound. And so we had a “Mini Plan” … a “Maxi Plan” … and several sizes in between. People could choose which plans they wanted to use, and these plans were a success. The cartoonist had put together a brochure describing the plans, and how people could reach multitudes for Christ in their own community with the billboards. It was a tremendous brochure: a beautiful brochure of each model plan with the sizes and so forth. Also, the cartoonist did lots of good artwork in between model plans on each of the pages. I remember a retired Lieutenant Colonel US Air Force Officer received one of the brochures in the state of Maine (in New England), and he financed five billboards for the Lord in his own area. These billboards were a great success. After a short period of time I received a communication from a Hispanic Pastor in downtown Los Angeles who pastored a church at a critical junction of TWO freeways: the Harbor Freeway and the Santa Monica Freeway. These two freeways join right in the KEY hub of the downtown L.A. Metroplex. He wanted to put up a billboard there on top of the church roof! So I went to meet with him. As a resultof that meeting I had special plans drawn up for this billboard. Now this sign required a special light 24 feet long (about eight meters long) to enable the billboard to be lighted at night. I found only one place that had a light this size that I could utilize for this particular design. It was a company in the State of Utah, in the Western part of the United States. So I ordered the sign. I don't remember if I made a down payment or deposit, but the sign was very expensive. I did NOT have the money. The day the payment was due for the sign―nobody knew that I owed this money―the money came in to either the penny or the dollar to pay the total amount for this sign. We had the light shipped to Los Angeles where we would be constructing the sign. The sign was ready to be built on top of the Church. So the sign was ready to go on top of this big giant billboard in downtown Los Angeles. But I had to get the plans approved by the city (after already spending the money for the sign and the light). One of my friends, Wally Hage (I conducted a Bible study in his home), held a very high position at Pacific Telephone Corporation in USA. He went with me to the Planning Commission in Los Angeles just to “tag along” and see what MIRACLES the LORD would do! So my friend Wally Hage from Pacific Bell Telephone went with me to the Planning Commission in Los Angeles. I think we were on the third floor or fifth floor, I don't remember. And the Planning Engineer looks at our plans and says, “You can't do this.” I already had a lot of time and expense in the project. He said, “These plans violate Los Angeles Building Codes and Planning Laws five different ways.” First of all, on a sign at that location the wording could only have “I.D.” In other words, the identification of the sign, or name of the entiry upon which it was placed. You could NOT just put up any message. The message on this sign for which we were applying for a permit was very plain. It had a Star of David and it said, “Messiah Jesus is God our Salvation.” [Remember, some of the wealthiest Jews in the world at that time passed by this location on their way to Hollywood, Brentwood, and Beverly Hills daily―hardly moving in their automobiles due to backed up traffic at times.] The sign also violated the city codes because there was an ordinance that specified the sign could not be nearer than so many feet to the freeway. Our sign was just “hugging” right up against the freeway and overhead. Also because of the lighting AND the size of the sign, there was also a zoning restriction against it (they were trying NOT to get too many signs in that particular area). Our sign (the plans) violated FIVE (5) city planning and building codes. This is where I learned, “Never take 'NO' for an answer!” So the Planning Engineer told me, “You cannot do this. It violates the Codes and the Covenants five different ways.” I just looked at him. My friend Wally Hagy, the executive from Pacific Bell, was standing beside me. He learned a great lesson that day. He was just kind of tagging along with me; he liked to travel around with me. I just stared at the Planning Engineer behind the counter at the Zoning Commission. I didn't say anything. I just looked at him. I didn't say one word. I don't know how much time went by. Finally, the Planning Engineer said, “Let me go upstairs and check with someone.” I don't know how long it was: 20 minutes or 30 minutes. The Planning Engineer finally came back down ... and he said, “It's all approved.” Praise God! I want to tell you, my friend Wally Hage almost had a heart attack right there. He told me later, “I have never seen not only such a miracle, but such a series of miracles in so short a time.” He said, “This was an impossibility. Five different ways!” My friend, God is the God of the IMpossible. In Jeremiah Chapter 32 27 in the Tanakh we read, “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Nothing is too hard for me.” So my friend ... never take “NO” for an answer IF you are serving the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. So the billboard went up … and that billboard for several years reached multiplied millions of people. Tens of thousands every day and multiplied millions of people through the years, day and night. What I didn't tell you was, at that particular place where this billboard was … in key traffic time―not only morning, but evening and even throughout the middle part of the day―traffic would just creep around―foot by foot―around this sign because there was a 'traffic bottleneck' there. People would SEE this sign with the Star of David that said, “Messiah Jesus is God our Salvation.” And as I mentioned previously, this was a particular area where some of the wealthiest Jews in the world had to travel by every day. This was the main thoroughfare from downtown Los Angeles as it turned off going out to Westwood, Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, and Brentwood. So when God gives you an IDEA, you need to make sure you are a good steward of that IDEA. ~ ~ ~ When God gives you an IDEA, there will be MIRACLES attached to it. There will be an ANOINTING on that IDEA resident in―or upon―that idea by the Holy Spirit: MIRACLES in the implementation of the IDEA … AND MIRACLES in the lives of people who receive the message in the IDEA: Salvation, healing, deliverance, prosperity, success. ~ ~ ~ And when God gives you an IDEA, if you don't know how to do it, then you need to choose wise companions, KEY associates to help you implement that idea. You see, my friend, we need to have a Spirit of Excellence in everything that we do unto the LORD. I trust this message has helped you! THINK ABOUT THIS God promised for you SPECIAL BLESSING if you bless the Jews. Share HOW to know the Messiah of Israel with God's Chosen People. “I will bless those who bless Israel.” Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai.

Lighting designer and owner of Images by Lighting Ray Thompson is here today to talk about storytelling with lighting for events and designing lighting for lux weddings. He has over 30 years of experience and an amazing passion for creative design. He also pioneered the modern event lighting industry. His company has created the lighting for events at major corporations like Adobe, Taco Bell, Gillette, NFL Super Bowl and many more. He has also been involved in premieres and events for major movies and entertainers like HBO, DreamWorks Pictures, Disney/Buena Vista, Elton John and more. In this episode, Ray shares how he got started and was able to transition his passion into a career and an award-winning company. He also talks about the evolution of lighting, changes in technology, tools smaller designers can use to create amazing lighting, how he finds inspiration and more. Show Highlights: [00:15] Ray Thompson is one of the true icons in the industry for what he does with lighting design. [00:34] Lighting is critical to telling a story no matter what you're doing. [00:49] Many years ago, Ray began lecturing and educating people about lighting and what can be done with lighting and where events were going. [01:28] When Ray was a kid, he was always good with science and math. His dad owned a vending machine company, and Ray had access to the broken machines, so he would create lighting installations in his bedroom. [01:59] He would even sequence lights to music. He wasn't sure how to make a career out of this, so he went into electrical engineering. [02:55] He moved to LA and was an electrical engineer for Hughes Aircraft. [03:11] While working at Hughes Aircraft, Ray had created some lighting sculptures in his apartment, which a well-known event professional saw and he tells the story of how that led to building a clientele. [04:01] Ray shares how one of his first big breaks came from Allan Carr. [05:26] Once props and scenery became decorations for parties, lighting also became a natural element. [06:19] Lighting is a dance from the moment you enter an event. Light creates an experience and storyline through color, texture, and intensity. [07:47] Ray is very spiritual. He loves color and the study of chakra and color on your being. [11:36] Ray directs the events, and lights can be used to create total theater for events. [14:33] We discuss Ray’s concept of the relation between lighting and “the choreography of emotion.” [16:31] Ray likes to be involved early on in the design process and discusses why. [16:56] We learn the behind the scenes process behind a project from proposal to end design. [22:41] Messaging for brands like Tesla involves a unique lighting design approach for a product reveal. [23:38] Ray tells the story behind designing the lighting for the wedding for a king in Dubai. [27:09] We get to hear about lighting projects such as the Governor's Ball for the Emmys, the Oscars Green Room, the Super Bowl, and studio and movie premieres. [31:00] He has worked with very high-end entertainers from Elton John to Katy Perry. [32:19] Ray shares his secrets for production efficiency and profitability that he’s learned over the years. [35:11] Ray shares how lighting technology has evolved since he began in the industry. [38:49] LED screens will get cheaper and cheaper for video walls. [39:24] Ray reveals the best way for industry professionals to work with lighting designers. [40:22] Battery packed pin spots and battery packed uplights are great cost-effective and simple ways for planners and designers to notch things up a level. [41:07] Going to concerts is inspiration and relaxation for Ray. He also gets inspired by the very creative producers that he works with. [42:42] Andy thought the video screens and the lighting at the Ed Sheeran concert were amazing. [43:42] Ray loves what he does. This video needs to be added to the notes. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/l8xwuqffuii8i16/AADzB_5lPGC7YZB9zQe2nW5la/ray%20movie%201.MOV?dl=0 This episode is sponsored by Kushner Entertainment www.kushnerentertainment.com.

In this special episode of Warriors, in Their Own Words, we feature an interview with a German U-boat veteran from World War II. Rudi Toepfer was born in East Prussia, Germany on June 27, 1917. After graduating from the German Naval Academy, he served as the chief engineering office on submarines as they hunted for Allied convoys in the Atlantic Ocean. After the war, he moved to the United States. He worked for Hughes Aircraft for 30 years and became a leader in the Elks Lodge and Masons. This is Rudi's compelling first hand account of his years in combat on board a U-Boat.
See all the show notes here. Julie Ellis started her career as a representative for a semiconductor manufacturer after completing her Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering. Now she is a Field Applications Engineer (FAE) at TTM Technologies, the third-largest circuit board manufacturer in the world. Listen to Julie and Judy discuss seamless global transfer and recommendations on working with offshore fabricators. Learn how to avoid excessive technical queries and how to migrate from prototype to production while optimizing global processes. Bonus update on AltiumLive: Julie and Carl Schattke will be presenting at AltiumLive 2018, introducing new stackup and impedance tools in Altium Designer 19, so be sure not to miss them! Show Highlights: Julie Ellis did a presentation about Documentation at AltiumLive 2017. What is Seamless Global Transfer? Transferring PCB manufacturing from onshore prototype level into production and offshore. Julie started her career at Hughes Aircraft, where she completed her Electrical Engineering Bachelor Degree - best decision of her life More women (not just circuit board barbie) need to get into STEM! #WomenInTech. Julie always encourages young women who are interested in STEM, to get a degree that will enable them to move into fascinating jobs with a variety of opportunities. Julie’s first job was as a semiconductor manufacturer’s representative; realized she liked the circuit board side of the business more than ICs and migrated over. On TTM: It’s like working at Google for circuit boards, I can always call someone for answers about manufacturing best practices. Seamless global transfer - the concept is that you aren’t just designing for the prototype but for global manufacturing i.e. avoid 100 technical queries What makes migrating over such a difficult process? Because the 6-Sigma 6Ms, are not the same when it transfers over to Asia. What are the 6Ms? Method, Mother Nature “Environmental”, (Man) People, Measurement, Machine, Materials. Equipment sets are different for mass production, production lines are longer, there is not as much human oversight, production lines must be scheduled and you cannot stop/start the process. The tolerances are different and they need to be accomodated in the designs. Throughput and drilling is always a bottleneck and to reduce this and reduce turn time, mass production sites have tweaked processes to get the highest yield. Internationally the general rule is 4 mil lines and spaces on half ounce copper; 10 mil is the most common size drill which results in an 8 mil finish hole size. As you go up in copper thickness you need to add a little bit to the pads. Blind vias are the ones that are on the outside but end up on an internal layer. Buried vias are buried completely inside the board. Working with offshore production house while still in prototype development phase. Recommendation - design for volume and technology. Qualify the design for the final production region and technology. HDI (High Density Interconnect) is anything 0.4 mm pitch and under that has a track running through the pads. Judy wants to throw everyone inside a fab house! There are at least 30 different processes required to manufacture one 4-layer board. Julie works directly with Carl Schattke and they will do a stackup presentation at AltiumLive 2018 Materials are a significant cost in Asia, whereas here in the states the material is less of a cost (20% in USA, 50% in China). With production panels where you're trying to get as many cookies cut, you also need to consider and discuss with your manufacturer the tiny 2x2 inch pieces. Links and Resources: AltiumLive 2018: Annual PCB Design Summit AltiumLive 2017 Presentation TTM’s Interface Between Designer and Fabricator TTM Technologies Website Carl Schattke Hi everyone this is Judy with Altium's OnTrack Podcast thanks again for joining. We're happy to have you again. I would like to continue to invite you to AltiumLive, and I also wanted to put a shout out that we have a call for presentations right now, so if you are an Altium Designer user, and you have some tips or tricks or some kind of breakthrough you've had on design please contact me at Judy.warner@altium.com and I'd love to hear from you ASAP. We'd love to have you present in San Diego or in Munich. Munich is January 15th through 17th and San Diego we are there October 4th, and 5th so look forward to hearing from you all. Once again I have another talented and amazing guest with me; Julie Ellis from TTM technologies which as you know is one of the largest board manufacturing companies not only in North America but in the world today so Julie is an FAE at TTM and a very well respected technologist as well as a dear friend. So Julie, welcome it's good to have you. Thank you. So Julie presented at AltiumLive last year on documentation. I've sat through many of her talks and learned much from her, so today we want to talk about what it takes to move jobs from onshore prototype level into production and offshore. She calls it seamless global transfer but before we get into that we'll hear a little bit about Julie's background. We both started in the printed circuit board industry in the 80s - which dates us a little bit I know - we're not going to say the year we're just gonna go with the round numbers the 80s but I always... -we were child savants though so we say we were 12 -we were 12 -five -okay five, yeah we were five. So Julie just came in and noticed my super cool Career Barbie of 2018, which is a Robotics Engineer Barbie. She's got circuit board patterns on her shirt and a laptop, she kind of looks like us, so we're just gonna call her Circuit Board Barbie and you know blondes... smart ladies you know. Finally, there's a Barbie we can really relate to, and we want women to get into science and STEM and everything - so go for it and aspire to be this Barbie here. Right on, yeah! Girl Power. We want to get more women in here, and it's just about exposure and motivating others, so we hope that throughout this podcast we inspire maybe somebody to give a girl a little nudge out there. We've enjoyed long enjoyable careers. So, okay Julie before we get started, why don't you kick off and tell our audience a little bit about who you are and your background - how you got into this wonky industry? I am Julie Ellis; I started as a Design Engineer at Hughes Aircraft Company. I was awarded a student engineering scholarship there, which paid for most of my schooling - the rest of my schooling after I moved out here from Iowa - so I always tell everybody that getting a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering was the best decision I've ever done in my life, so I really do encourage people. If you're interested in Math, Science, Biology - anything - get a good STEM degree so that you can always move forward into interesting, fascinating jobs with a lot of variety of opportunities. It's a really, really good way to go and I encourage youth and people to get into this kind of field. So I started as - once I graduated from Cal State Fullerton - I stayed on it until the 1990s when things got really tight in the military market, and I was on loan to one department, but I couldn't hire in, so I took the first job that was offered to me as a semiconductor manufacturer’s rep and I had circuit board industry or circuit board experience at Hughes and as a rep I also had a couple of circuit board lines and I really, really liked the printed circuit board side even compared to the ICS and memory sales and everything. So I ended up migrating toward the printed circuit boards. Fast forward eight years, landed a great job at TTM as a Field Applications Engineer just a little over four years ago and it's been a fantastic opportunity. TTM is the world's third-largest printed circuit board fabricator, and we would probably be number two if it didn't include Flex because the top two manufacturers have a lot more flex and rigid-flex than we do, so I'm surrounded by experts in this field. It's like living in Google for printed circuit boards because whenever I really want to know something I can go call somebody within my company and find the answer, so it's it's really good working here. Really it's impressive, and you're right - like you really can go to anyone to get the latest and greatest information on manufacturing best practices which are really, really fun. So we wanted to talk today about Seamless Global Transfer, and I know that we've talked a lot on this podcast about there's no such thing as the quick and dirty prototype so why don't we just jump off from there? Like what does it mean? So you design a board it's gonna go into production, but you've got deadlines, you need to crank it out really quick, you crank it out really quick and then it's like: hey it works let's migrate offshore! [laughter] That’s right - that way exactly. That would be like the worst case scenario, like you heading for Niagara Falls and not knowing it. So why don't you talk about the myth of the quick and dirty prototype and why you really need to think about global manufacturing up front while you're just developing the circuit board and designing it? Yes, so Seamless Global Transfer is the concept that you're not just designing for your prototype to get it through a quick turn shop here in the United States in five days. Because I worked - one of the numerous positions - was as a Circuit Board Commodity Manager and a contract manufacturer and a lot of the projects we got had already been tested and proven and developed here in the United States. They sent it to us for mid-level production, we’d try to send the parts overseas, and everybody would come back with a hundred technical queries and say: we can't build it because we don't have this capability over in China. Oh, you need to change this on the design - it's not going to work, and by the time you've given your job to a contract manufacturer your engineers do not want to make changes to the design that they've already tested. So global seamless transfer plans ahead and thinks about: what is our migration path from quick turn development prototype and taking it over until long-term production and so there's a lot of background that goes into that, and that's what Judy and I wanted to talk about here. So what is it that you think that makes that migrating over makes that a difficult process? Because the Six Ms: man, machine, materials, environment - which is another M that I can't remember. Everything is not the same when it transfers over to Asia. The equipment sets are different for mass production, the production lines are so much larger and often much more automated, so they can't get the human element, you know. Watch this, watch that, we don't get the babysitting of our project over in China like we can here. In Asia or China, we have to schedule the production lines, and you can't just interrupt a line there to quickly throw this job in front of everybody else. The schedules are a lot different, the process tolerances are different, and because the process tolerances are different, we have to accommodate those in our designs. Okay, so there seems to be a perception anyways that once we have a pretty robust design here that we can just kind of throw it over the pond. Why is that, I mean you just talked about some reasons but what are some like tangible snags you're gonna run into if you try to do that? A lot of it has to do with the drilling. Like over in China most mass production shops, except for the really advanced HDI shops which would all go laser micro vias all the way through, as a rule don't drill using six mil drill bits because they're expensive, they break and they can't be re-sharpened and they break more easily and they have to be changed out twice as often as bigger drill bits. And bigger drill bits can be stacked, or you know, panels can be stacked. So if you can drill two or three panels at one time you've just got your throughput and drilling which is one of the largest bottlenecks in fabrication. You reduce your turn time significantly and time is money. What we're paying for in printed circuit boards besides materials, is the time it takes to get through the processes. So Asia and mass production sites have all tweaked their processes to achieve the highest yields, in the least amount of time, at the lowest cost. But there is a sacrifice to that and sometimes at the sacrifice of we need a better, bigger pad around a drill hole. We're going to stack two or three panels high instead of drilling a six mil drill and our plating processes are a little bit different so we may have to have more edge compensation. Which means that, that will drive a little bit larger requirements for line, width, and space. So on those, is there a recommended - that's kind of a broad question - but are there recommended kind of hole sizes and pad sizes and/or trace and space sizes to help on the throughput? If you have it. Yeah kind of the general rule of thumb internationally, is 4 mil lines and spaces, on half ounce copper is a good start. Anything under that on half ounce copper is going to be a premium. And ten mil is the most commonly sized drill which would drop you down to an eight mill finish hole size. And we'd like to see the hole size plus ten mil for the pad. So if you've got an 18 or an 8 mil finished hole size, we would drill it probably at 10 or 12. We'd like to see at least an 8+, 10 and 18 mil pad on that hole. That's just for a single lamination through-hole in multi-layer printed circuit boards. As we go up in copper thickness, we need to start adding a little bit to the pads. Okay, and how does that change when you start adding buried and blind vias in? It depends on the construction. If we're talking like a real traditional blind via board; blind vias are the ones that are on the outside, and they end up on an internal layer. Buried are vias that are buried completely inside the board, and those are different technologies. But so if we're talking standard blind vias where we might have 1 to 6 and then 7 to 12, both being blind via stack-ups, we would actually stack up the material layers 1 to 6, drill and plate, and then we would stack up the materials layer 7 to 12 - drill and plate. And then we would laminate all those together, and then we would drill and plate and etch the outer layers. So those definitely have different rules because the two outer layers already have plating - additional plating - on the outer layers which means that we have to etch through thicker copper because of the foil plus the plating, and we're going to require slightly bigger line widths and spaces on that particular design. So one thing we were chatting about as we were preparing for the podcast, that I thought was obvious, but also fascinating, is the idea of working with your - you know, I kind of want to move into now, sort of takeaways for our audience. So you were talking about working with your offshore production house while you're in your prototype development stage which I think is kind of counterintuitive. I don't know, is it? Actually, if we are in the prototype development stage, it's the best way to do it because if - I always recommend that my clients design for volume. Whatever their final volume is you know, we all know the term DFM, but we really have to take it to heart to figure out, qualify the design for the final production region. Final production technology, whether it's a single lamination or a multi-lamination that's not HDI board like I just brought up, or whether it's an HDI board that has blind and buried vias, but with laser micro vias and advanced HDI board which I categorize as anything 0.4 millimeter pitch and under, that has a track running through the pads. So if you start at your before-prototype stage, qualified the design for the volumes and the technology so that you can pick your final production sites, get the design guidelines for those sites, get the stack up for those sites, and have the stack up and the design guidelines identified before you even route the board. And if you do that then you're not going to route a whole board, send it over to China, and China is going to say: oh sorry those line widths and spaces, there's not enough space for us to compensate the etch and artwork during etch, we can't build it this way. Go increase your spaces, and if you don't have room on a tightly designed board, or if your pads aren't big enough to achieve the annular ring that you're asking for, your design is no good for manufacturing. So my term is ‘design for volume,’ but it means whatever your volume is. And the reason I'm doing that, or I'm saying 'your volume' is because we have customers that do 200 printed circuit boards a month, and we have customers that do a million circuit boards a month. And the shop that does the million circuit boards a month is not going to take the 200 circuit boards per month order, but they have a much higher level technology - so I can't design for that technology knowing that I could never run it in that particular site. Right, so it's both volume and technology. I feel like it's such a good service, in many ways on the prototype end, that we can kind of do push-button ordering now, but I also feel like what's has been lost is how complex the fabrication process is and I just wish - I want to throw everyone inside a fab shop. Because it's like when you - think you can just push a button and then a package shows up on your door; you know what I'm saying? That every shop is a little unique is for a variety of reasons. It's not - for reasons that enable different types of technologies - they do it with high intention and lots of precision and all of that, and so you have to design for that shop. It's not just push-a-button and out it comes. Especially the more complex the board gets, so, on the one hand, I'm a fan to get the prototypes out fast, onshore when you can, have maybe available that kind of service. But on the other side, if you're going into volume, I don't know - I think it gives people sort of a false perception of what it's like on the other end. Talk about - I think you mentioned this stack up; getting this stack up right at the... I really like that DFM right, design for volume, that was kind of a new concept to me that you introduced me to. So you're saying that the stack up should be kind of vetted and worked out with the volume as well as, what kind of board, what kind of technology buried/blind vias, you have the space levels to also work out the stack of details. Yeah we need all that information to be able to create the stack up because most of those multi-layer boards with VGAs also require controlled impedance like for the high-speed digital that we're doing all the autopilot, industrial controls, medical controllers, everything seems to be working off some sort of USB and PCI, and we need to manage the controlled impedance. Controlled impedances based on line width, space, and how thick the dielectric is and to a little teeny effect, how thick the copper is. So we have to play all these together while creating a stack up and also keeping track of, if we're doing stacked or offset micro vias. We build those from the inside out and just keep adding layers, drill the outer layer down to the next layer, then on both sides then we add two more layers drill the outer layer down to the next layer. But each time we do that, we have to figure out how we're going to plate those and how thick the plating is going to be and those are process variances are you know. There are process capabilities and variations from site to site, and there can be unintended consequences along the way, like putting additional copper on that outer layers - it's the more complex it gets you have these: if you do this, then this you know, what I'm saying there's so many! Anybody who has seen my presentations knows that I always say that I'm always splitting hairs. Because a human hair is about 2.5 to 3 mils in diameter, and I'm always worrying about unintended consequences because if a customer comes in and they say: I want thick plating inside my hole walls you know, give me 2 mils of plating inside my hole walls. Well for one I can't think of one fabricator in China that would do that. The IPC standard for class three is 1 mil average plating in the hole walls. But the other thing is, remember whenever we plate inside the hole walls we're also plating the surface, the outer surfaces, the thicker those outer surfaces get, the harder they are for us to etch fine lines and spaces. Well, why don't you just put it through the machine that just spits out the board Julie? We need a magic machine! If I could do that I wouldn't have to be here... I'd be somewhere on my own Island in Bora Bora... Barbie we need a magic machine to spit out - maybe Barbie will get you to know either a Barbie plane and maybe she'll have a Barbie magic PCB? That'd be great. Then you know, in Barbie's world I think we'll just spit it out, I know - it's very complex and by the way. Let me stop right here and say that Julie helps every top brand that you could probably think of in Silicon Valley and beyond; helps them to do their stack-ups and come up with these you know, calculations to help work out all this hair-splitting and she's very skilled and capable. And that's why she will be presenting at AltiumLive with a senior PCB designer who she works with directly which is Carl Schattke, I cannot tell you what brand he works for, or I would get in trouble, but suffice it to say he's in Silicon Valley and works for the top electric car manufacturer and I am delighted that Julie and Carl will present on stack up on this very subject, and you couldn't get two more qualified people - I’m so excited that you're doing that. Thanks, we are too - I think it will be fun. It'll be really fun, and so they're so used to being deep in the weeds they'll be such a resource. So before you move on though, it's not just the stack up, it's also the pad stack line, widths, and spaces that need to be provided to the customer with the stack up. Because we want to make sure that they know all of those design requirements before the board guy starts routing everything. You talked about DFM and DRC's for final site and prep for the prototype. Is that - I just wrote myself a note here - have we covered most of that here? Yeah, we have for the stack up and the design rules. But one thing I'd like to bring up is everybody's trying to stay competitive and because of the processes and the way that production panels are laid out in Asia. Materials are a significant cost over in Asia compared to here in the prototype shops. Here we pay for the quick turns, for the setups and things like that which are insignificant compared to those. So the material here is only about 20% of the average cost compared to 50% of the cost in Asia. So if you can also plan your size to fit well up on a production panel so that like, imagine an 18 by 24 inch production panel, and you're trying to get as many cookies cut on that production panel, but you also want to think if you've got really small pieces your assembler is not going to be able to load those tiny little 2x2 inch pieces. Their conveyor equipment can't hold them, and it would take them forever to go through those linearly, so another really cost-saving exercise is to work with both your fabricator and your assembler to come up with a multiple up-array for smaller boards and also make sure that you know whether you've got enough clearance on the two long sides of your array, or your printed circuit board for the parts to be conveyed through assembly. There's sometimes parts hanging off the edge which really makes things fun. Yeah and that needs to be planned for in advance, whether: do you need an extra rail on a leading edge, because there's a big connector hanging there, or is the assembler going to put that on after the fact? But if you also take into account design for assembly - put all your test points on the board because once the board is designed and you can access test points, nobody's going to be able to go back in and design an in-circuit test fixture or functional test fixture and unpick those plates. So don't just design for volume. Like I said really, truly design for DFX, design for fabrication, assembly, test, and long-term reliability. Good, good, good, good advice. So can you give some real-life examples from your real life career? We won't name names of brands but suffice it to say there; you work with major consumer brands that if we could say names everyone would recognize them and tell us some of the, you know challenges that they had by actually not thinking about some of these ideas ahead. And these are the brightest of the brightest - I think what we want to share here is, everybody is challenged in this area, right? It's a challenging area, so we're not saying, oh we're so smart, and you know the audience what do they know? No, the top designers, the top printed circuit board designers almost in the world, are challenged by some of these issues. So just talk about some real-life examples and how it went wrong or how it went right? Okay one real-life example in the last quarter was a major commercial customer like you said, they had worked with a - probably a Silicon Valley shop - they built their boards, tested them out, proved them, and they wanted to go into mass production. Their start date is like August, to start delivering mass production so that they can you know, start shipping their product. Well it turns out they had a design that had a six mil drill - mechanical drill through a standard thickness board with a ten mil pad and when I said, remember I said like, do your finish hole size plus ten for the pad, this only gave the hole size plus four, and it wasn't enough to make sure that people wouldn't totally drill you know, have too much because of misregistration material movement. Every time you add a process, you add misregistration. Nobody in Asia would take this business, and we actually had to help the customer convert the whole design to another via structure type to be able to pull it off. And the way this happens is one of two things: if you're a major customer and you go to a, you know like a smaller shop, they are going to be so hungry for your business they're not going to say, no, no, no - we can't do that. They are going to babysit every single panel and put them in the drill machine by hand and make darn sure that they're going to get that for you. Or there are probably a few select super, super advanced shops that are just doing onesie-twosie jobs and they can meet these kind of requirements, and these tight process tolerances, using direct imaging everywhere you know, using single headed drills for the production panel rather than five or six spindles that we use. And so it's not even saying that that particular circuit board fabricator was a bad designer - it's just that they're only designing for their site capabilities and probably pushing technology to make a big customer happy. Right, and that may be their niche, that may be their niche market - but again they're not thinking particularly ahead, they're trying to help their customer be - - so it's kind of myopia. They're just designing for that, and they're great shops, they're great shops very, very capable, but not unless you tell them up front or you start this conversation up front it can go bad like that. On a consumer product that, okay it's August let's go into production and then wait, stop. Stop everything and the cost, the headache to that customer, they have to respin the board, run the protos over again and do all the testing over again. And now, schedules are lost, time to market is lost, you know so that it can become really painful very quickly and very costly. Yeah very costly. And I had another similar design that my customer had a design with 5 mil mechanical drills and 9 mil pads and most shops I know don't really drill mechanical 5 mils. So that was a tough one for him to go into production. So that's a real common example. The wrong size drill with the wrong size pad, or one that I just saw recently, was a really thick dielectric that still needed a blind hole and it was planned on being a laser hole because they wanted some big RF circuits on the outer layer. Which means they needed a thick dielectric and normally if you're using laser micro vias you have very thin dielectrics. And I was able to confirm that we can do it over in China but it's - it wouldn't have been my first choice for a design you know, and it kind of set me back but - but we were capable on that one. Yeah so, you have a saying that I like which is: pick your experts wisely. So tell us what that means? What you mean when you say that; pick your experts wisely? Well if you're going to listen to an expert, they're going to segue you to the path that they know, and if you pick the wrong expert and they take you down a garden path that nobody else can fabricate. I know that there are shops that they'll say: let's do this and let's have the customer design it this way because then they can't go anywhere else. It's a way to guarantee their business. I can confirm that you know, I've seen entirely that. It locks you into that job. It locks you into that job, and you know, I can see both sides. I'm like this ambidextrous Gemini so I can see both sides of the story. I can see an internal engineer wanting to secure future business for their location. But on the other hand, it may not be good long-term for the customer. And I'm in it for the long haul you know, I've been both sales and technical support, and a lot of times I have to work with customers to make slight modifications and design engineers; these are your babies. You don't want to have somebody coming in from the outside and saying, you know what, I really can't quite achieve that. Can we tweak your design a little bit? Who wants to hear that? But if I have credibility, as somebody who's thinking for the customer, for the fabricator, and working towards the best solution long-term. I've - you develop trust, and you can get better work done. So, I choose to do the good path even though it probably means that I tell everybody I'm a conservative designer and so that means that if you design a stack up - if I design your stack up, give you the design rules, if you can meet them chances are one of my competitors can also do the work. Yeah, but on the other hand you know, the relationship most of the time means a lot. Right it does, and not everybody has both the technical depth that you have, the integrity you have, and you have reached to top, top fabrication experts in the world. So that gives you a really broad perspective which I appreciate. So Julie thank you so much. This has been so great, and I feel like we've just scraped the surface but I would like to invite our listeners, if you are available, to come to AltiumLive and Julie will dig into - she and Carl Schattke have an hour-long presentation plus QA and, will be introducing some new stack up and impedance tools in Altium Designer 19, and so they will be giving a really rich treatment of the subject of stack up. So if you want to hear more from Julie, come on out to AltiumLive, and we would love to have you. Thanks again Julie, it's always - I always learn from you every- - - thank you. Every time we talk. So there is one other thing that we should talk about. What should we talk about? Okay the other background of seamless global transfer is that if you're working with a company that has multiple sites like DTM - we can take that - we can take the lessons learned from the prototypes, and transfer the data, and transfer the lessons learned over to the final fab site, so that it's not a new learning curve once it goes overseas. And that's a real advantage about really paying attention to this. Right, which is a good point. Yeah. Do you transfer the learning curve along with just the data files right? That's right yeah. So good point. Okay, thanks for inserting that again. This has been Judy Warner with Altium's OnTrack podcast, and Julie Ellis of TTM. We look forward to you joining us again next time. Until then, remember to always stay OnTrack.

Also, there are severities ranging from moderate to extreme … and some, life threatening. Many people suffer for years with a condition that could have been taken care of in a short time … and some, instantly. God is the Healer and the Creator – and by virtue of this fact – He knows exactly what you need. There is nothing wrong with going to physicians or seeking medical help or advice. But what we should do is seek the LORD first to see what He wants us to do. He may want to heal us by His sovereign power, over a period of time, or instantaneously. _____________________________________________________________ HEALING FROM BACKPAIN~ A MIRACLE PODCAST PRODUCTION ~ MUSIC / INTRO There are many types, as well as causes of, back pain. There is neck pain, upper back pain, mid and lower back pain, and then the sacrum related coditions at the base of the spine. You have probably heard someone complain of sciatica which is caused by irritation ot the nerve roots that lead to the sciatic nerve coming out of the spinal cord in the lower back. A bulging or ruptured disc is usually the primary culprit is such a condition. However, there can be other conditions involved. Arthritis can cause bone spurs which can cause or exacerbate sciatica. Also, an injury can cause compression of the nerve roots. There are several other causes for sciatica, and the source of the irritation will usually dictate the treatment prescribed: physical therapy, medicine and sometimes surgery. Be very careful of exercise regimen with any type of back condtion, especially spinal related, as you could be aggravating the situation. Always check with your medical professional concerning any type of workouts, exercise and even stretching. CAUTION: There is a condition known as Cauda Equina Syndrome which you might think is sciatica; however, it is very dangerous and without a MIRACLE from God may require urgent surgical treatment. It's symptoms can be similar to sciatica, and causes can be: A severe ruptured disk in the lumbar area (the most common cause). Narrowing of the spinal canal (stenosis). A spinal lesion or tumor. A spinal infection, inflammation, hemorrhage, or fracture. A complication from a severe lumbar spine injury such as a car crash, fall, gunshot, or stabbing. A birth defect such as an abnormal connection between blood vessels. There are types of bone pain attributed to bone fusion or where the vertebrae grow over. One such conditon is known as Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). It affects the spine with pain and stiffness from the neck down to the lower back and does not necessarily confine itself to older people; it happens most often to teenagers and men in their twenties, and is characterized by stiffness from the neck down to the lower back, and can result in a rigid spine. Back pain can be caused from injury, work, poor posture (sitting or standing), sports and recreation. But … the Good News is that YOU can be healed of back pain! You may be thinking … or saying … “I've had this condition for years!” Well, let me tell you, my friend, that Jesus, the Healer, has been healing for years! There are some practical things you can do to help your situation: 1. Exercise (check with a medical professional before starting an exercise or stretching regimen); 2. Take proper nutrition and supplements; 3. Get the required amount of sunshine (for Vitamin D); 4. Rest your body and your mind. 5. Take advantage of physical helps like the “Teeter HangUps” inversion table. This helps reverse the effects of gravity and disc compression. (Check with your medical professional before using.) The scope of this teaching is NOT to discuss specific types of therapy or treatments, but rather to present an alternative solution to problems that you or a loved one may be experiencing with back related issues.You can be healed today...NOW...by calling on the name of the LORD: Who forgives all your sins, and Who heals all your diseases [Psalm 103:3] The LORD's healing nature never changes. It is God's will to heal you! Remember the lady in the Bible who was bent over for 18 years? “And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together (bent over), and could not in anyway lift herself up. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.” (Matthew 13:11-13) _____________ MY TESTIMONIES I am completely back pain FREE at this time in my life … and I have been on Planet Earth for quite a while! My advice to you – especially if you know the Great Physician, Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus, the Messiah) – is: NEVER GIVE UP! I went for 13 years with terrible back pain. I don't know what caused it. I was a varsity wrestler in school, but I don't remember any happenings that would have caused (the devil's) pain. (I say “the devil's pain” because it was NOT my pain; it was pain the devil wanted me to have!) Also, I had been in NO serious accidents, not even small ones. By God's grace I have never had a broken bone in my lifetime. I have claimed the scripture for years (a prophetic one about Messiah Jesus' death on the cross) that says, “He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken.” (Psalm 34:20) Here is how I was healed. My pain was so bad and so aggravating. I had been to a chiropractor years before and had learned or remembered how he had “fixed” my back to alleviate pain. So, I would lie on the floor and try to “fix” my back the way the chiropractor did. I was miserable, and it got worse and worse! I was addicted to”cracking” my back. I probably was compounding the situation. It was such a miserable condition … and, to make matters worse, at that time in my life I did NOT know about the healing power of Christ! Finally, I began to wonder if the situation was NOT a physical problem, but possibly a “spirit” problem; in other words, a “spirit of affliction” sent by the devil to plague me while I was trying to do God's work! To give you an idea of how bad the situation was, if I were in a business environment where I had never been before, I would look to see if the receptionist stepped out of the office so I could lie on the floor and “crack” my back. I was miserable! One day as I was on the floor ready to “crack” my back, the Holy Spirit spoke to me. He said, “Why don't you let me take care of that for you?!” Wow! I knew exactly what He meant. Instead of ME trying to fix the problem and compounding it each time I “cracked” my back, the Holy Spirit wanted to FIX it. It was such a temptation because when – and immediately after – I would “crack” my back, I would feel so much better … until it started hurting again! I really had to resist “cracking” my back … but realized at the same time, I didn't want to go through that all of my life. So … I said, “OK, Holy Spirit, I give this problem – this back condition – to You!” That was it, it was over. PRAISE GOD! That was many years ago. Another time, I experienced extreme pain in my upper back below my shoulder. It was not a spinal problem, but it would hurt so badly that I would cry. I asked God different times to either heal me or take me home to Heaven! I went to medical doctors, I went to specialists, I went to physical therapy … nothing worked. I even told two of the doctors I had that I asked the LORD, “Either heal me or take me to Heaven,” so they would know how bad the situation was. Nothing worked! Finally, one night while travelling in another area of the country, before I went to bed, I prayed to God and said, “Father, you can just send an Angel to touch me and I will be healed.” That night, while I was sleeping, I was awakened with a loud “POP” in my back where the problem had been. It was so loud it awakened me. And I was perfectly healed. I have never had that problem since, and never will, thank God … and thank the Holy Angel that God sent to touch me. Yes, “Touched by an Angel” has a special meaning to me! _____________ PRAISE is also an important remedy for back pain. 1. It lifts up and straightens the spinal column and relaxes it from a “stooped” condition. Learn to practice praise to God several times a day for at least 30 seconds. 2. God lives in the praise of His people. “But You are holy, O You that inhabits the praises of Israel.” (Psalm 22:3)3. The anointing breaks the yoke. Since God lives in the praise of His people, there is an anointing present with true praise, which can break an “assigned” attack on the body, mind or spirit. “And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.” (Isaiah 10:27)4. Praise brings victory. King Jehoshaphat and the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem won a large battle utilising praise. (Read 2 Chronicles Chapter 20, verses 1-30 in the Tanakh.) _____________ CHECK THIS OUT: An Egyptian friend of mine, Magdy Girgis, was a member of our Board of Directors. He worked for Hughes Aircraft as did several Christians who had been Baptized in the Holy Spirit, all of which spoke in tongues. They had Bible studies together every morning before work and also at luch time. One day a man named Warren Meisenbach, who worked in the Engineering Department, came to their Bible study at lunch. Warren was NOT a believer and he asked them, “What's this born again stuff you keep talking about?” Warren had been a “hunch back” for 15 years (like the lady in the Bible I discussed earlier who had been bent over 18 years). Warren received Christ as his Lord that day, and asked the men to lay hands on him for healing. Instantly … they could hear his back "cracking' like: POP, POP, POP. He was perfectly straightend in a normal position. (See Note #3 at bottom to listen to a podcast of this MIRACLE.) When he went home his wife was dumbfounded because he was not only “straightened” but smiling for the first time in years! Jesus is the Healer … the Great Physician. Will you let Him heal YOU? If you want to meet the Healer, Yeshua HaMashiach – Jesus the Anointed One – NOW is the time! Invite God’s Son, Yeshua, to come into your life by praying the following prayer: "Messiah Jesus, I know that you are The Great Physician. You loved me enough to shed your sinless blood and die for me on the cross stake that I might be healed. I know you are alive. Please forgive my sins, come into my life, and be my Master. Help me to live for you, and take me to Heaven when I die." _____________ I have selected three (2) books which will help you to know how to deal with back pain, and any type of pain – so you can live PAIN FREE and serve God – and enjoy life the way God wants you to. Here they are … just click on the image. _____________ ADDENDUM I have seen many people healed by the LORD of back pain, back conditions and paralysis. I have witnessed many people walking out of their wheel chairs. I was holding a three day seminar and I had asked the people present to join me in prayer and fasting for the last day as I was going to teach on healing. A man was present who had been in a wheel chair for nine years due to two conditions: 1. A large 18 wheel semi-tractor truck had run into his automobile and he had five breaks in his spine; 2. He had muscular dystrophy. During Holy Communion he walked out of his wheel chair and never went back! Two years later, he gave his testimony in a large Presbyterian church and hundreds of people fell out of their seats under the Power of the Holy Spirit.

Rubber-Meets-The-Road Tip * Tom looked up to his grandfather who started a lot of businesses and it seemed really interesting and “it never seemed like work.” * He attended USC where he saw the power of being an entrepreneur but he didn't launch his own venture right out of college in 1995. * The internet was really taking off and he was doing coding for Hughes Aircraft. Next thing he new he was teaching database development courses at USC. * He got a coding job at an ad agency but he noticed the recruiter that got him that job “didn't seem to work very hard.” (See a trend here?:-) * Tom then started a recruiting business to put techies into California companies. He would target VC firms and the companies they were funding and/or bringing on new staff and reach out to get them as clients. This took a lot of time so he decided to create a system to streamline it. * In 2000 the writing was on the wall that the DotCom bubble was bursting, so he started exploring his new business that became Lead411, which focuses on salespeople because in good times and bad, companies need good salespeople. [Tweet ""In good times and bad, companies need good salespeople" says @lead411"] * He considers himself an entrepreneur but he had to learn how to be a salesperson. He learned he had to uncover what was important to the client then go find that right person for them. * You need a network of people that trust you as well so it's all relationship building. Most coders hate recruiters so he has to convince them that he's looking out for their best interest. * He started Lead411 as a free offering in May 2001. After 9/11 the VC options collapsed and he was forced to charge for the subscription, but when he launched he stamped “beta” on the launch and let people know they would charge for it eventually. * They did keep a freemium component to keep people around. * Looking back he would've charged more in the beginning. [Tweet ""It's okay to charge more in the beginning!" says @lead411"] * He's not a Data.com or ZoomInfo but he is looking to grow his offering. More of his clients are looking for more contacts. * Has had a team in India for 10 years. Uses tech to find the news and live editors to make sure the data is accurate and not duplicated. * Everyone is virtual in his company. One salesperson in Santa Barbara, Sales assistant in Arizona, Developer in Boston, data entry team of 10. * Boulder has the most startups per capita so he moved there to grow his business. [Tweet ""Go where the growth is. It really is that simple," says @lead411"] Links Mentioned * Follow Tom Blue, Lead411 on Twitter ( https://twitter.com/lead411 ) * Get your own leads sent to you daily here ( http://www.lead411.com ) If you liked this episode, please let me ( https://twitter.com/saleswhisperer ) know on Twitter.
