Podcast appearances and mentions of jesse bernstein

John is joined by Jesse Bernstein, Partner in Quinn Emanuel's New York Office and Co-Chair of the Securities Litigation Practice.  Jesse explains that the term “securities” applies not only to stocks and bonds, but arguably to any situation where a group of investors place their resources into a common entity where they expect to make profits from the efforts of others.  He describes the sources of securities law, including state blue sky laws, the Securities Act of 1933 (which focuses on initial issuances), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (which focuses on intentional misrepresentations in securities transactions and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (which sought to curb perceived abuses in securities litigation by raising the pleading standards required to establish scienter and creating a safe harbor for forward looking statements).  They discuss the Supreme Court's recent ruling in Moab Partners v. Macquarie Infrastructure that pure omissions of material fact are not actionable under Rule 10(b)(5) because the rule only covers affirmative misstatements.  Jesse then explains how a Quinn Emanuel team obtained a jury verdict last year in Elon Musk's favor in a rare securities class action trial on a $12 billion claim based on Mr. Musk's tweet about taking Tesla private.  He describes the arguments made concerning materiality and loss causation that ultimately led to the victory.  Finally, they discuss upcoming issues in securities law including how the Macquarie decision will impact cases. Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

Prophecy Radio episode #100 celebrates our huge milestone by looking back on our favorite episodes, guest stars, book discussions, and more. We also break down what Percy, Annabeth, and Grover were doing at the end of Heroes of Olympus in anticipation of the next Percy Jackson book. As always, we also discuss all the latest Rick Riordan news, including the chapter titles for Chalice of the Gods. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:07) Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem is now out in the world, and you can read an excerpt on Read Riordan. Rainbow Crate gives us an update on the second batch of The Sun and the Star books being shipped out. Becky gives us a little update on the Kane Chronicles contract amid the strikes. Did you see the Indonesian cover for Chalice of the Gods? Yes, Jesse Bernstein is returning to voice Percy Jackson in Chalice of the Gods. Did you catch Rick's video about CotG? Have you read the FIRST THREE CHAPTERS OF CHALICE OF THE GODS? We discuss the chapter titles in detail and speculate on the plot for the book. Celebrating 100 episodes of Prophecy Radio (00:30:02) We discuss our favorite episodes of the podcast, particularly over the course of the last 50 episodes. What fun facts have we learned in our nearly two years as a podcast? It's so hard to pick favorite guest stars, but there are a few authors who really stick out in our minds. It's also difficult to pick a favorite Rick Riordan Presents book discussion, but we both had similar answers. What were some of our most surprising moments on the podcast? There's SO much to look forward to in our future. Of course, we can't wait for Chalice of the Gods. We also can't wait to be able to talk about the show, but for now, we're staying #WGASTRONG. Leaving on such a cliffhanger, we can't wait to get back to The Red Pyramid. There are also a couple of Rick Riordan Presents books that we're really looking forward to coming up soon! Thank you for listening and celebrating with us! Chalice of the Gods character catch-up (01:02:49) Chalice of the Gods takes place after the Heroes of Olympus and before Trials of Apollo. Percy Jackson went through A LOT in Heroes of Olympus, like being switched with Jason, losing his Curse of Achilles, and falling into Tartarus. Speaking of Tartarus, there's a part about him disintegrating, and we're wondering if that could be related to one of the CotG chapter titles. Will the trio still be mourning Leo's death, or do they know he's alive now? Annabeth spends a lot of time looking for Percy until Mark of Athena, where she really gets to shine. We love a good ol' Percabeth reunion. Percy and Annabeth totally awaken Gaea with their blood, but everything works out in the end and they'll be at New Rome University soon enough. Grover wasn't in the Heroes of Olympus a lot, so we're excited to see more of him in Chalice of the Gods. Will we see Jason in the next book? We also go over some information about Ganymede, since we know he's an integral part of this story. Could Hebe be the Big Bad of Chalice of the Gods? Did you know we (kind of) saw him in Sea of Monsters? Since we know Iris will also be involved, we get some background information on her as well. Surprisingly, our research also mentioned cupcakes and tea! Did we mention how excited we are for this book!? Feedback (01:25:26) Thank you for sharing your Percy Jackson origin story with us, Ian! And thanks again for writing in to us, Caoimhe! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 101, in which we'll discuss Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem by Roseanne A.

Suivant les traces des premiers labels punk américains des années 80 tels que SST, Dischord et Alternative Tentacles, Kill Rock Stars était dans les années 90 le label référence de la scène musicale d'Olympia dans l'état de Washington et le label à l'origine du mouvement Riot Grrrl. Slim Moon déménage à Olympia a 18 ans et tombe, dans une galerie d'art, sur un spectacle de Spoken Word de Jesse Bernstein, époustouflé, il commence à en écrire et à en jouer. Il s'implique , alors, fortement dans la scène musicale locale. Il joue dans un tas de groupes différents, notamment dans le groupe de rock expérimental Witchypoo dans lequel il rencontre Tinuviel Sampson. Il décide de créer, avec elle, un label dans le but de sortir les enregistrements de Spoken Word de leurs amis. Moon en s'inspirant des labels comme Touch and Go, Dischord mais aussi K Records, souhaite diriger sa maison de disque d'une manière juste et respectueuse pour les artistes. « Wordcore Volume 1 » devient, en 91, la première sortie de Kill Rock Stars. Le disque comprend un poème de Kathleen Hanna de Bikini Kill en face A et des morceaux de Spoken Word de Slim Moon en face B. La même année, Moon revoit sa position de ne sortir que des enregistrements de Spoken Word après avoir vu le premier concert d'Unwound, et sort leur premier single. En août 91, Calvin Johnson et Candice Pederson, du label K Records, organisent, à Olympia, un festival de musique indé appelé Internationale Pop Underground Convention. Son but est de réunir des groupes avec les mêmes valeurs « Do It Yourself » et anticapitalistes, et de prôner l'indépendance artistique. Fugazi, Built To Spill, The Fastbacks ou les Melvins s'y produisent. La première soirée nommée Love Rock Revolution Girl Style Now est entièrement consacrée aux groupes féminins punks et queercore comme Bikini Kill, Heaven To Besty ou Bratmobile. Le magazine Spin parle même de la convention comme du vrai Woodstock des années 90. Olympia apparaît pour la première fois, sur la carte des scènes qui comptent. Pour l'occasion, Slim Moon sort la première compilation de Kill Rock Stars. Elle instaure déjà la ligne de conduite qui sera la caractéristique du label : autant d'hommes que de femmes. Une mixité qui sera la ligne politique de Kill Rock Stars jusqu'au départ de Moon en 2006. Bien que le label n'ait jamais été affilié à un genre ou un mouvement musical particulier, Kill Rock Stars sera toujours lié aux groupes Riot Grrrl des années 90, comme Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, Huggy Bear, Heavens to Betsy et Excuse 17 qu'il n'a jamais cessé de promouvoir. Le partenariat le plus fructueux de l'histoire du label a sans doute été son association avec Elliott Smith. Le succès de Smith a inauguré une nouvelle ère chez Kill Rock Stars. Au cours de la décennie suivante, le label a adopté une palette sonore plus large qui s'est de plus en plus appuyée sur des musiciens inspirés du folk rock comme The Decemberists et Thao Nguyen. Le label sortait parfois plus de 50 albums par an, un chiffre bien supérieur à celles des autres maisons de disques de l'époque. Un rythme effréné qui épuisera Moon. En 2006, il annonce alors son départ de Kill Rock Stars pour travailler chez Nonesuch Records, une filiale de Warner Music. Sa femme Portia Sabin, prendra la direction du label jusqu'à son retour en 2019. Connu pour ses sorties importantes de groupes Riot Grrrl, Kill Rock Stars est un modèle de label indépendant et à travers son intégrité, il est devenu l'une des maisons de disques les plus influentes de la musique indépendante.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief By Rick Riordan Read by Jesse Bernstein "Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. I never asked to be the son of a Greek God. I was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, skateboarding. The usual. Until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher. That's when things started really going wrong. Now I spend my time fighting with swords, battling monsters with my friends, and generally trying to stay alive. This is the one where Zeus, God of the Sky, thinks I've stolen his lightning bolt - and making Zeus angry is a very bad idea." Can Percy find the lightning bolt before a fully-fledged war of the Gods erupts?
