We dive into an interview with Jennifer Parker from the National Security College, discussing the implications of recent Chinese naval activity near Australia. Parker acknowledges that while the presence of Chinese warships is not inherently threatening, the circumnavigation of Australia signals a shift in regional dynamics and China's capabilities. She suggests the timing of the deployment, occurring after Donald Trump took office, is likely strategic. While Australia's geography offers some protection, its extensive sea lanes make it vulnerable. Parker argues that increased defence spending is essential to ensure Australia possesses the capabilities needed to address evolving regional threats. She concludes by expressing hope for a European-led ceasefire in Ukraine but believes Australia's role lies primarily in providing support.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The head of Australia's spy agency, Mike Burgess, has given his annual threat assessment address. The ASIO boss delivered a wide-ranging speech, which discussed 'foreign actors', sabotage, and 'hostile nation states'. But what do those terms actually mean, and how does ASIO respond to these threats? Jennifer Parker is a defence analyst and security expert with ANU's National Security College. She joins us in today's deep dive to unpack what Burgess said, how it impacts our daily lives, and if we should be concerned.

Australian naval expert Jennifer Parker joins Ray and Jim to talk about the nuclear-powered submarines Australia will be acquiring as a result of the new trilateral Australia-UK-US (AUKUS) partnership. Jen discusses the advantages of nuclear-powered submarines over their diesel-powered cousins, and the reactions of Australia's neighbors to the abrupt AUKUS announcement. She also explains the distinction between nuclear power and nuclear weapons, and how confusion over these terms played a role in the controversy surrounding the deal. Jen unpacks the risks involved with such a significant leap in technology--such as its high cost and the country's lack of nuclear expertise and infrastructure--and how Australia is working to mitigate those risks. Jen takes on some of the AUKUS deal's critics, including those who believe Australia should prioritize a close-in defense of Australia. Finally, in our "There I was ..." segment, Ray tells the story about how he had to learn English all over again when he served in Australia.

Have you found success in tracking your income before your expenses, and if so, how has it impacted your financial stability? What methods have you used to increase your income beyond teaching classes? Do you prefer using budgeting apps or spreadsheets, and why? How often do you check your bank statements, and what insights have you gained from this practice? In what ways do you see parallels between budgeting and yoga, particularly in terms of consistency and adaptability? Have you been able to build a buffer of savings, and if so, what strategies have helped you achieve this? When do you think it's appropriate for yoga teachers to consider taking on part-time work, and how can one navigate the potential stigma associated with it? Have you ever negotiated rent for your teaching space, or explored alternative venues? What advice would you offer to others in similar situations? Lastly, how do you harness the power of your network and student referrals to grow your yoga community and increase your teaching opportunities?   Quotes from this episode: "It's OK to make income teaching yoga.'   "It's really helpful if people can actually sit down and look at the numbers and then make for themselves a clear decision. Is this something that I want to do full time all the time or is it something that I just wanna do sometimes?"   "Let's talk about different ways of approaching the financials of this business that are based in living our values rather than just ‘I made a beautiful abundance collage and the universe will take care of me'."   "The first step of budgeting is: what are my costs?"   "The budget will work for you if it works the way you work."   "If you're in a place where you can say I'm not gonna be too proud, all of a sudden now there's infinite opportunity."

Have you or anyone you know experienced a coercive relationship? Jennifer Parker, therapist and author of the book Coercive Relationships: Find the Answers you Seek, shared her knowledge and insight with The Calming Ground Podcast. In this episode, Jennifer offers a deeper understanding of coercive control and the importance and power of recognizing, acknowledging, and naming this relationship dynamic for what it is. Key Takeaways: Being able to identify and name the relationship dynamic as coercive control is a step towards empowerment. While attempting to prevent an outburst and/or abuse from happening is natural, there is nothing that is in anyone else's control to truly prevent abuse from happening; the abuser is responsible for their behavior. Taking moments that are available (such as 5 minutes in the car of the parking lot of the grocery store) to practice self-care can be empowering and offer centering peace.

This badass woman has overcome so much - so much that we had to double/triple check our facts before we started the interview. She shared with us that she has overcome divorce, a blended family with 5 children, including an oppositional defiant child, a child with autism, a child with a severe congenital heart defect who endured 4 open heart and 13 other surgeries, court battles, having a restraining order violated 19 times, a child who was assaulted by an adult at a children's museum, a child who was abused, a child who was strangled, and by far her most difficult challenge ever – having a child who drowned. Yet, she has overcome all of that (and more) and is thriving as the president of the Alex and Ali Foundation, a local nonprofit that empowers people with disabilities through meaningful employment opportunities. She's also a keynote speaker and advocate for children and adults with disabilities and a faith-based speaker focused on taking the next right step and keeping hope in the midst of hardship and suffering. You'll have to listen to her story yourself to know why we think she's such a badass!

Back to the Future Welcome to The Guys Review, where we review media, products and experiences.   **READ APPLE REVIEWS/Fan Mail**Mention Twitter DM group - like pinned tweetRead emailsTwitter Poll   Back to the Future Directed by: Robert Zemeckis (Also did sequals, Forrest Gump, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and more) Written by: Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale Starring:  Michael J. FoxChristopher LloydLea ThompsonCrispin GloverThomas F. Wilson Released: July 3, 1985 Budget: $19M ($48.4M 2021) Box Office: $388.8M ($991.2M in 2021) Ratings:   IMDb 8.5/10 Rotten Tomatoes 96% (Rotten tomatos and Metacritic scores are the same for this and Halloween)Metacritic 87% Google Users 95% In the years since its release, Back to the Future has grown in esteem and is now considered to be among the greatest films of the 1980s, one of the best science-fiction films ever made, and one of the greatest films of all time. In 2007, the United States Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry.  A musical theater production, Back to the Future, was announced in 2014.The musical was written by Gale and Zemeckis, with music written by Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard. It debuted at the Manchester Opera House, England, in February 2020, to positive critical reviews. Gale said the musical was the best way to give fans more Back to the Future without adding to the film series. First time you saw the movie? Plot:In 1985, Marty McFly is a typical teenager living in Hill Valley, California. At home, Marty's meek father George is bullied by his supervisor, Biff Tannen. His mother Lorraine is a depressed alcoholic, and his older siblings are professional and social failures. Marty's band is rejected at a music contest for being too loud. He confides in his girlfriend, Jennifer Parker, about fears of becoming losers like his parents despite his ambitions.That night, Marty meets his eccentric scientist friend Emmett "Doc" Brown in the Twin Pines mall parking lot at 1:16am. Doc unveils a time machine built from a modified DeLorean, powered by plutonium he swindled from Libyan terrorists. Doc tests the Delorean with his dog, Einstein, sending him exactly one minute into the future, and showing Marty some serious shit. After he proves it works, Doc inputs a destination time of November 5, 1955—the day he first conceived the flux capacitor, which is what makes time travel possible. Just then, the terrorists arrive unexpectedly, opening fire and shooting Doc. Marty flees in the DeLorean, inadvertently activating the flux capacitor, and when he reaches 88 miles per hour, he disappears into a fireball, as the terrorists crash. S:-Huey Lewis was the teacher who told Marty he was too loud.-What would've happened if Einstein hadn't shown back up? Or if he were dead when he did?-If you could go back in time, when would you go? Why?  Arriving in 1955, Marty crashes into Old Man Peabodies barn. After being mistaken for an alien, Marty escapes, driving over one of his pine trees. Marty discovers he has no plutonium to return to 1985. While exploring a burgeoning Hill Valley, Marty encounters his teenage father and discovers Biff has been bullying him since high school. While spying on the teenage Lorraine, George falls into the path of an oncoming car, and Marty is knocked unconscious saving him. He wakes to find himself tended to by Lorraine, who becomes infatuated with him just like in Tuckers dreams. Marty tracks down a younger Doc and convinces him he is from the future, but Doc explains the only source available in 1955 capable of generating the power required for time travel is a bolt of lightening. Marty shows Doc a flyer from the future that documents an upcoming lightning strike at the town's courthouse, and with it being 1955, is the same day Chris lost his virginity. As Marty's siblings begin to fade from a photo he is carrying with him, Doc realizes Marty's actions are altering the future and jeopardizing his existence, GREAT SCOTT; Lorraine was supposed to meet George instead of Marty after the car accident. The pair try and get Lorraine interested in George, but they fail, and Lorraine's infatuation with Marty deepens. This is Heavy.Lorraine asks Marty to the school dance. He plots to feign inappropriate advances on Lorraine, allowing George to intervene and "rescue" her, but the plan goes awry when Biff's gang locks Marty in the trunk of the performing band's car, while Biff forces himself onto Lorraine. George arrives expecting to find Marty but is attacked by Biff. After Biff hurts Lorraine, an enraged George knocks him unconscious and escorts the grateful Lorraine to the dance, picking up her panties on the way. The band frees Marty from their car, but the lead guitarist injures his hand in the process. Marty takes his place and during his playing of Earth Angel, all of his siblings in the picture have disappeared, and Marty starts to fade away, when George and Lorraine finally share their first kiss; bringing back Marty and his siblings. After a rousing performance of Johnny B Good, and, with his future no longer in jeopardy, Marty heads to the courthouse to meet Doc. S:-Guess we shouldn't ask if anyone has ever been a peeping Tom...-When and who was your first kiss?-The flyer is def precurser to the sports almanac in part 2.-So besides it being his own mom, Martys idea is STILL a sexual assault, even if he didn't go through with it, but Biff did. Notice where his hand was coming from when George opened the door.  Doc discovers a note from Marty warning him about his future and destroys it, worried about the consequences. To save Doc, Marty re-calibrates the DeLorean to return ten minutes before he left the future. After some trials, Marty drives and the lightning strikes, sending him back to 1985, but the DeLorean breaks down, forcing Marty to run back to the now LONE PINE mall, much like Trey does on most nights. Lone. Pine. Ok. He arrives as Doc is being shot. While Marty grieves at his side, Doc sits up, revealing he pieced Marty's note back together and was wearing a bulletproof vest. He takes Marty home and departs to 2015 in the DeLorean.Marty wakes the next morning to discover his father is now a confident and successful science fiction author, his mother is fit and happy, his siblings are successful, and Biff is a servile valet in George's employ. As Marty reunites with Jennifer, Doc suddenly reappears in the DeLorean, insisting they return with him to the future to save their children. As they get in, Marty tells Doc he'll need more road to get to 88... When Doc tells him where they're going, they wont need, roads. The DeLorean takes off, and flies into the sky and the future. The End. S:-Again, if you could go back and change anything would you?-If you could know your future, would you?-They didn't think about the fact that Marty would crash into a theatre back in the future?-Also, this implies the whole reason Doc was "friends" with Marty, a 17 year old boy, was because he'd known for 30 years what would happen. How do you even make that introduction and start that friendship? "Hey, we've got to be friends so you go back in time and save my life by writing a letter..."?-I've read reviews of people who don't like the role reversal of George and Biff, that George has basically become the bully. Thoughts?     Top Five Trivia of the movie: 1. The role of Marty McFly was originally portrayed by Eric Stoltz. But he was fired several weeks into the shoot and replaced by Michael J. Fox.2. Thomas F. Wilson improvised some of Biff's signature catchphrases, such as butthead and make like a tree, and get out of here3. The iconic DeLorean time machine was almost a Ford Mustang.4. In early drafts, the time machine was a refrigerator.5. According to Back to the Future Part III (1990), the clock in the clock tower started running at 8:00 p.m. on September 5, 1885. The date is provided by the caption on the photograph that Doc Brown gives Marty at the end of Back to the Future Part III. The time is provided by the Mayor in 1885 in Back to the Future Part III, who starts it. The lightning strikes the clock tower at 10:04 p.m. on November 12, 1955. This means that the clock tower operated for exactly seventy years, two months, seven days, two hours, and four minutes.   TOP 5Stephen:1 Breakfast club2 T23 Sandlot4 Escape rooms ---> Back to the Future5 Mail order brides Chris:1. sandlots2.
