POPULARITY
A nation of 23 million people that punches far above its weight is a subject of study and fascination around the world. Its prowess in semi-conductor technology is just the beginning. Much of Taiwan's success comes from the way it has designed its cities and the way its culture embraces innovation, ideas from everywhere and implements them in a process that continues to modernize its economy, while maintaining the integrity of its history and its robust democracy. In this mini-series we try to open the door to Taiwan for you. We begin with a conversation with the CEO from a company that is based in an Intelligent Community, Arlington County, Virginia. Arlington County and Taiwan have a strong relationship and in this conversation, Jim Shea, CEO of DeepSig, a software development company that improves the next generation of wireless systems, talks to Lou about doing business in a country where there are 17 Intelligent Communities! Jim Shea is the CEO of DeepSig Inc., a startup that is harnessing the power of AI to radically improve the performance and security of 5G, IoT, and other wireless systems. He has over 30 years of commercial and defense industrial experience having been involved in two previous startups and experience managing large organizations. Jim received a BEE from Georgia Tech and an MSEE from The University of Illinois.
Today on Midday, we're going to follow-up on a Midday exclusive story we brought you last week about Question K, a voter referendum issue that will appear on ballots in Baltimore city in the November election. Question K asks voters to decide whether or not city officials should be limited to two terms in office, beginning in 2024. Sounds simple enough, right? You hold an office for two terms, and you can't run for that office again unless you wait four years. When we first read the Question on a draft of the city ballot posted recently on the Maryland Board of Elections website, it never dawned on us that a candidate who is term-limited in one office would not be allowed to run for another office. For example, if someone serves as City Council President, after two terms, one assumes she could run for Mayor.That is exactly the intention of the organization who collected signatures to get the Question on the ballot. Last week, Tom spoke about the merits of term limits with former Mayors Sheila Dixon and Kurt Schmoke, who served as Mayor for three terms in the late 1980s and 1990s. Mayor Schmoke pointed out that the language of the Question on the ballot disallows a person from running for any office after having served 8 years. That's not what term limit proponents said when they wrote the actual language that will become part of the charter if this Question passes. That language specifically says that this provision “shall not preclude an elected official from seeking other elected office” in Baltimore City. So what are we voting for?And who is calling for the vote? That organization is called People for Elected Accountability & Civic Engagement. It's chaired by Jovani Patterson, a former Republican candidate for Baltimore City Council President, and the effort is largely funded by David Smith, the chair of Sinclair Broadcasting, a media company that owns Fox 45 and other stations around the country. So, today, let's talk about three things: Are term limits a good idea? It's legal, but is it proper for a media organization to actively promote changes to Baltimore City law? What happens when the language of what we're voting for is different than the statute that will result from that vote? We'll take the last question first. Tom spoke this morning with Jim Shea, the Baltimore City Solicitor, and we begin with their recorded conversation. Then, two veteran political observers weigh in on Question K. Larry Gibson of the University of Maryland, Baltimore, Carey School of Law, who joins us in Studio A; and Jayne Miller, who retired recently from WBAL Television, who joins us on Zoom. During the conversation, we are also joined on the phone by Question K proponent Jovani Patterson, chair of People for Elected Accountability & Civic Engagement, which is sponsoring the ballot initiative.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nobody in the history of swimming has been as good at freestyle as our guest today is. Katie Ledecky is the literal GOAT (Greatest Of All Time), as she is the world record holder in the women's 400-, 800-and 1500-meter freestyle. (If you're an American who prefers yards to meters, Katie also has the fastest-ever times in the women's 500-, 1000-, 1500- and 1650-yard freestyle events.) Katie is just back from her third Olympics, where she won two gold medals and two silvers. In addition to dominating in the pool, she also has some great Jesuit connections: Katie's godfather is a Jesuit priest named Fr. Jim Shea, SJ, and Katie has also lent her voice and platform to the urgent work of the Jesuit Refugee Service. She talked with host Mike Jordan Laskey about those Jesuit connections and her Catholic faith, plus some swimming stuff -- like what's going through her head as she swims a grueling 1500-meter race. Learn more about the Jesuit Refugee Service here: https://www.jrsusa.org/ AMDG is a production of the Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States.

Tom's guest is City Council President Brandon Scott, Democratic candidate for Mayor. Mr. Scott was first elected to the Council in 2011 to represent the 2nd District. Prior to that, he worked in the office of then Council President Stephanie Rawlings Blake as her representative in Northeast Baltimore. In 2018, Jim Shea picked Mr. Scott as his running mate in their unsuccessful bid in the Democratic Gubernatorial primary. Brandon Scott is 36 years old, which is, BTW, about the same age that Martin O’Malley was when he was elected Mayor, Johnny Olszewski, Jr., the Baltimore County Executive, and Pete Buttigieg, the former Mayor of South Bend Indiana, who ran for President.
Today, we continue our series of Conversations with the Candidates with people who are running to be the next Mayor of Baltimore City. Tom's guest is City Council President Brandon Scott. Mr. Scott was elected President of the City Council by his fellow members eight months ago, when then Council President Jack Young became Mayor after Catherine Pugh’s fall from grace. As the chair of the Council's Public Safety Committee from 2016 until last year, Mr. Scott has been an advocate for the reform of the city police department and a holistic approach to crime reduction. If elected Mayor, Mr. Scott says he will aim to reduce homicides in Baltimore by 15%, in each year of his term in office. That would bring the number of annual murders to below 300 by December of 2021. He was first elected to the Council to represent the 2nd District in 2011. Prior to that, his work experience included working in the office of then-Council President Stephanie Rawlings Blake as her representative in Northeast Baltimore. In 2018, Jim Shea picked Scott as his running mate in their unsuccessful bid in the Democratic Gubernatorial primary. A lifelong resident of Baltimore, he’s a graduate of Mervo High School and St. Mary’s College. He is 35 years old and single. This conversation was live-streamed on WYPR's Facebook page.

In the latest in a series of conversations with candidates for governor of Maryland, attorney Jim Shea says the man he hopes to challenge in November, incumbent Republican Larry Hogan, has been just ----treading water,---- doing little to advance education, transportation and Baltimore's crime fight. Shea says that, in lowering highway tolls, widening roads and ----doing no harm,---- Hogan has lowered expectations for the governor's office, and Shea promises to reverse Hogan's minimalist approach.Joining the conversation is Shea's running mate, lieutenant governor candidate and Baltimore City Councilman Brandon Scott.Links:http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/politics/bs-md-jim-shea-profile-20180515-story.htmlhttp://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/dan-rodricks-blog/bs-roughly-speaking-jim-shea-20170802-htmlstory.htmlhttp://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/dan-rodricks/bal-roughly-speaking-2018-gubernatorial-candidates-storygallery.htmlhttps://elections2018.news.baltimoresun.com/
