You wait five episodes for some action in this mini-series and then all of it comes at once! Yes, it's all kicking off at Camp Echo Mountain and we are loving it. Jessica skives off the colour war to picnic with Paul, leaving doormat Liz to compete in her challenges as well as her own. But then she's captured by an axe-wielding maniac whose name is so amazing we simply can't spoil it here! Can Liz and Nicole put aside their differences to save not just Jessica but the killer's other captives? All this and our new faves Buford and Johansen take up new surprising roles!

Jason JohansenBuilt from the Ground Up: Real Estate, Resilience, and Doing the ImpossibleIn 2001, I was a young soldier stationed in Columbia, South Carolina when a late-night infomercial stopped me in my tracks. Real estate. Wealth. Freedom. I had no background, no mentor, no plan—but something lit a fire. I dove into books, learning everything I could about investing. It was the first time I saw a way out.Then came the knock—deployment to Tikrit, Iraq. I had enlisted three days before 9/11, told I'd never be sent to a war zone. Suddenly I was packing up, leaving behind the dream I had just started to chase.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Send us a textErin Johansen is a communications supervisor for a medical flight company, and she's got her finger on the pulse of the air transport industry. Having grown up in the flight business, she is intimately familiar with each position she oversees. Imagine a Situation room of sorts. During her 12-hour night shifts, Erin often navigates a bustling control room where 15 to 20 medical flights are in progress at any given time. On particularly hectic nights, that number can soar into the 30s. Picture a team of eight flight coordinators, each surrounded by multiple monitors, managing calls from hospitals for inter-facility transfers, law enforcement inquiries for missing persons, on-scene emergencies, and requests for fire suppression. With operations extending across seven states and over 60 bases from Hawaii to Colorado, the environment can become quite chaotic. Erin is the backbone of this operation. If communication fails in any way, it could threaten safety or cause delays in patient transport. She must be adaptable and she must be vigilant, knowing that the trust she builds with her colleagues and customers is essential to effective communication. This excellent communication, in turn, reinforces that trust, creating a win-win for all involved.In the five-minute snippet: It's the City of Trees.

When you're in the middle of writing your book, it can feel like the finish line is miles away. But here's what many first-time authors don't realize: writing the book is just one part of a much bigger journey. Getting your book published is a milestone, but it's what comes after that truly defines your book's success. Marketing is where you connect with your audience, build credibility, and create lasting impact. If you go it alone, you might feel overwhelmed, but with the right support and strategy, you can transform your book into a powerful tool that grows your business. At the Biz Book Pub Hub, I've gathered experts who guide entrepreneurs through every phase of the author journey.

In this episode of The 10Adventures Podcast, we explore one of the most fascinating and extreme landscapes on Earth—the Atacama Desert. We're joined by journalist and author Mark Johansen, whose latest book, Mars on Earth, is both a travel memoir and a deep dive into Chile's culture, history, and the experience of being an outsider in a foreign land. Mark shares his journey from New Zealand to Chile, where he has lived for over a decade, and how his desire to better understand the country led him north to the Atacama. We discuss Chile's complex history, including the 1973 coup and the social uprisings of recent years, and how these events continue to shape life in the country. Mark also paints a vivid picture of the Atacama's harsh yet captivating landscape, its indigenous communities, and the economic forces—like lithium mining—that are transforming the region. Join us for an insightful conversation about travel, identity, and the pull of remote places. Be sure to check out Mark's book and follow him on social media.

What if everything you thought about prototyping was wrong? Many teams rush to validate an idea too soon, but what if the real secret to success is building a studio that learns better? In this episode, Leif Johansen breaks down the myths of prototyping and how studios can create a structured approach to experimenting with game ideas. Key Takeaways: - Stop Searching for the “Perfect Prototype” – The best teams prioritize many small, fast failures over one high-stakes prototype. - Prototyping Is a Science and an Art – The most successful studios create intentional experiments that map out their design space before committing to a vision. - Build a Learning Machine, Not Just a Game – A strong studio isn't just about good ideas—it's about a team that knows how to test and refine them. - Innovation Comes from Small Fixes, Not Big Ideas – World of Warcraft and Apex Legends didn't just win by reinventing the wheel; they won by refining existing formulas with micro-improvements. - Hiring Too Fast Can Kill Your Game – Too many studios hire for downstream roles (art, animation) before locking in core mechanics, creating inefficiencies and wasted resources.

Is the games industry maturing or collapsing? How have our old models and comparisons hurt how we develop? In this episode, Leif walks us through how game dev has shifted, and how you need to think differently to stay relevant. Enjoy! Key Takeaways: Playtesting and Leadership: How leaders set the tone for playtesting with their behavior, not their words. The Slow Rise of “Forever” Games: How players spending more time in older games is reshaping play patterns. Drinking Our Own Kool-aid: Too many games have an expectation that they'll wildly succeed and make decisions that cause anything but breakout success to lead to studio failure The Challenge of Scale: Games may be different, but we may need to look outside our space to tackle the problem of large organizations. Specialization in Game Dev: Generalists have value, but large companies are often looking for specific, deep skills rather than breadth of capability
I "Bak Lane" vil jeg, Lars Bak, besøge tidligere holdkammerater og fantastiske personer, som også har stoppet deres aktive karriere. Jeg vil dykke ned i deres nuværende liv, undersøge om de stadig er involveret i cykelsporten, og dele deres mest mindeværdige øjeblikke fra karrieren. Jeg vil også høre om deres oplevelser med at stoppe som aktive ryttere og deres syn på nutidens cykling. I første episode af "Bak Lane" får jeg besøg af min tidligere holdkammerat, Allan Johansen. Allan tilbragte 11 år som professionel, hvor han nåede at sikre sig 11 sejre, før han fortsatte sin passion for cykling som sportsdirektør – denne gang bag rattet i følgebilen. I dag driver han Belgium Cycling Club, hvor han arrangerer cykelevents og cykelrejser for en masse cykelglade danskere. Bak Lane er en del af Forhjulslir. Klippet af Anders Mielke.

In this podcast we meet CIIS faculty member Sundari Johansen and speak about how her academic background in religious studies informs the critical perspective and frameworks she brings into her course on Hindu Tantra. We discuss research as deep listening and self-transformation, and get into the problems of traditional western ethnographic methodologies based upon the distinction between the insider and outsider. Sundari also shares why she was lead to invert the scholar-practitioner model into the practitioner-scholar model as a way of problematizing and making productive the entangledness of subjective engagement in the subject of one's study. We end by taking a deep dive into her paper titled, (In)conspicuous Consumption: Food, the Child Body, and Inversion of Hard-Core Rituals in Hindu Tantras. Sundari Johansen Hurwitt, PhD, specializes in gender, the body, ritual, power, and secrecy in religion. While her interest in these themes encompasses a variety of religious traditions, her research work currently focuses on ritual studies in South Asia, especially Hinduism, Śāktism (goddess-focused Hindu traditions) and Tantra in India. A practitioner and scholar, Dr. Johansen comparatively explores representations of the young female in the Tantric literature of Bengal and the Northeast as well as in the living Tantric traditions of Northeast India, using extensive textual research and in-depth ethnographic fieldwork. Her dissertation, “The Voracious Virgin: The Concept and Worship of the Kumārī in Kaula Tantrism” (CIIS, 2019) is the first comprehensive study of the kumārī (pre-menarche virgin girls worshipped as goddesses) in India. She is particularly interested in representations of gender and the body in late medieval and early modern Tantric texts, the development of Tantrism in Bengal and the northeast, and in continuities and differences between textual and modern living traditions. Her work is deeply rooted in post-colonial and decolonial, transnational, feminist, and integrative philosophies, as well as exploration of non-Western philosophical and theoretical traditions. Dr. Johansen is a strong proponent of integral feminist pedagogies and research methods and interested in furthering the development of immersive, cooperative, and collaborative educational models in online education. During her dissertation fieldwork in Assam, Dr. Johansen assisted in the development of a library and digital archive with the Foundation for History and Heritage Studies at Kāmākhyā Dhām in Guwahati, which was established to preserve endangered manuscripts and other documentation from the local community at the Kāmākhyā temple complex. Part of this work included video and audio documentation of local women's devotional music, as well as assistance with digital restoration of archival materials. Dr. Johansen received an MA and PhD in Philosophy and Religion with a concentration in Asian and Comparative Studies at the California Institute of Integral Studies. Her research has received support from the American Institute of Indian Studies.

Former Alaska State House Representative Kyle Johansen was first elected to represent his hometown of Ketchikan in 2006. Two years later he became the Majority Leader in the Republican-led House. After being re-elected as Majority Leader in 2010 he left the caucus in protest of a committee leadership decision which he now sees as a huge mistake – a mistake he continues to pay for years afterward, ultimately driving him in 2019 to relocate to Hawaii. In the 34th Legislature which starts this January, he will be returning to Alaska to staff my office in Juneau. Today we learn his story.

We take a deep dive into Karl Popper's philosophical ideas about music that he outlines in four chapters in this intellectual autobiography Unended Quest: “Music,” Speculations about the Rise of Polyphonic Music,” “Two Kinds of Music,” and “Progressivism in Art, Especially in Music.” We are joined by Peter's brother, Chris Johansen, who is a straight-ahead jazz tenor saxophonist living in NYC. We discuss how Popper's ideas on classical music intersect with Chris's ideas on jazz, as well as the role of conservatism in music. We examine how Popper's thinking on music influenced his concept of the 3 worlds and his ideas on such concepts as dogmatism, essentialism, and historicism. Plus, you get Bruce's rant about the importance of constraints in music, science, criticism, and Popper's epistemology. Bruce argues that absent at least the attempt to outline epistemological conventions (i.e. constraints) you can't error correct Popper's epistemology and you lose what makes it special. You can listen to more of Chris's music here. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/four-strands/support
This lecture discusses key ideas from the early 20th century weird and horror story writer, H.P. Lovecraft's short story "The Call of Cthulhu", a classic work of cosmic horror and absolutely central to what will later come to be called the Cthulhu mythos. It focuses specifically on the third part of the story, which includes an account originally written down by 2nd mate Johansen of the boat Emma, recapitulated by the narrator, of the encounter of the city of R'lyeh risen from the sea, and with the Great Old One Cthulhu To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Read The Call of Cthulhu - https://www.hplovecraft.com/writings/texts/fiction/cc.aspx
