Host Jeff Berckes speaks with water professionals from the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality and the City of Boise about their creative approach to the Lower Boise River Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for nutrients. The City of Boise found an atypical way to meet pollutant reductions identified in the TMDL 40 miles downstream from the wastewater treatment facilities. The location of the Dixie Drain Phosphorus Removal Facility provides a unique opportunity to offset phosphorus inputs to the river system from multiple sources. Instead of more expensive treatment at the wastewater plants, the downstream facility maximizes phosphorus removal from sources along the river's corridor. About our guests: Troy Smith is the Wastewater Compliance Bureau chief at the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality. Lauri Monnot serves as the Idaho Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Program (IPDES) municipal permit writer with the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality. Haley Falconer is the senior manager of Water Renewal Programs with the City of Boise, Idaho. Kate Harris is the Water Quality Programs manager for the City of Boise, Idaho.

Welcome to the Dementia Researcher Podcast. In this episode, Dr Fiona McLean, an Alzheimer's Research UK fellow at the University of Dundee, discusses the issue of academic burnout with three fellow researchers. The guests, Dr Sarah Marzi, Dr Ian Harrison, and Dr Kate Harris, share their personal experiences with burnout, its impact on their work and personal lives, and strategies for managing and preventing it. They highlight the importance of setting boundaries, seeking mentorship, maintaining a work-life balance, and practising self-kindness. They also emphasise the need for a supportive and sustainable research culture. -- Five Top Tips from the Show: 1. Set Boundaries: Establish clear boundaries in your work to manage expectations and workload effectively. Communicate these boundaries with your colleagues and superiors to ensure a sustainable work environment. 2. Seek Mentorship: Engage with mentors both within and outside your institution. Mentors can provide valuable guidance, support, and perspective, helping you navigate the challenges of academic life. 3. Maintain Work-Life Balance: Dedicate time to activities outside of work that bring you joy and relaxation, such as hobbies or exercise. This helps in preventing burnout and maintaining mental and physical health. 4. Build a Supportive Network: Surround yourself with peers who understand your struggles and can offer support. Peer networks and friendtors (friendly mentors) can provide emotional and professional support, making you feel less isolated. 5. Be Kind to Yourself: Practice self-compassion by acknowledging your achievements, setting realistic goals, and allowing yourself to rest. Recognise that it's okay not to be perfect and that your well-being is crucial for long-term success. -- Full biographies on all our guests and a transcript can be found on our website: https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk -- Like what you hear?

Command and control leadership. Most of us loathe these types of leaders, and I can count on one hand the organizations that need this type of leadership. The rest of us? The rest of us need authentic leaders. But here's the kicker: we still need strong leaders. Leaders that aren't afraid to voice their point of view… even if it's a little spikey. In this conversation, one of my business coaches (and an Enneagram 8) Kate Harris joins us to talk about what leadership looks like and how clarity is the first step. We talked about how there has been some buzz on social media about this “POV” trend and what point of view really means and doesn't as a leader. Kate puts it so eloquently: “I'm going over here, do you wanna come with?” It's not forcing others into our way of thinking. It's voicing what we're going to do, what we believe, and standing strong. Those who are meant to be a part of our work will come. Kate challenged us all to write a personal manifesto. As someone who's already done this thanks to Kate, I can tell you that it will change the way you work and the way you talk about your work. For me, I believe work should be a joy. If you'd like to hear the whole thing send me a DM or comment on our show, and I'll send it your way!

I met Kate Harris in London to ask her about LGB Alliance, the organization she co-founded with fellow lesbian activist Bev Jackson in 2019. Previously she campaigned for Stonewall for nearly two decades, but since 2015 the globally renowned charity has been completely captured by “the T” and gender identity ideology.In the UK today, lesbians and gays are once again going underground. Young tomboys are told they are born in the wrong body and teens are medicalized, sterilized, often for simply being gender-nonconforming homosexuals. LGB Alliance has been attacked by many LGBTQ organizations and even taken to court, simply because they prioritize same-sex attracted people.Kate says she was never “in the closet” and she was involved with the women's liberation movement since the ‘70s. She is one of those no-nonsense, passionate campaigners who believes that open debate should never be off the table.This podcast is hosted by Partizán, an independent Hungarian online media channel, please support our work through Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/partizanpolitika
Kate Harris is a life-long feminist and lesbian campaigner. She worked at Brighton Women's Aid – a refuge for women fleeing domestic abuse – in the 1970s and continued her activism when she moved into the corporate sector. This included American Express, where Kate worked as Vice President Global Relationship Management, Corporate Services. Kate was an active supporter of Europe's largest gay rights organisation – named Stonewall. She organised Amex sponsorship for major Stonewall events and served in a personal capacity as a Stonewall “Ambassador”. Bev Jackson was a founding member of the UK Gay Liberation Front in 1970. She is a lifelong progressive activist in causes including anti-Apartheid and refugee rights. In 2016 she published a book, A Month with Starfish, on her experience working with refugees in Greece. Bev worked as a teacher and then a lecturer in English literature at the University of Amsterdam, and later became an academic translator. She lives in the Netherlands. Kate Harris and Bev Jackson were introduced to each other in 2019 by a mutual acquaintance who saw they shared similar concerns about Stonewall's abandonment of gay and lesbian rights. Both had separately communicated their concerns to Stonewall, but there was no willingness to engage. In the summer of 2019 they therefore decided to team up and to revive the gay rights movement in the form of a new organisation: LGB Alliance.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit public.substack.comFor most people, the struggle for gay and transgender rights are one and the same. It's the LGBT movement, not the ‘gay rights movement'. But it wasn't always this way. Until the 1990s, the two communities were largely separate, and it wasn't until the 2010s that they officially joined forces. At the time, many liberals readily embraced this alliance as a logical evolution. After all, the fight for gay rights was drawing to a close, and after same-sex marriage was secured, it seemed natural that the spotlight would shift towards another marginalized group. The term LGBT now symbolizes a united front of oppressed minorities gladly standing shoulder-to-shoulder in the fight for a more equal world.But, early on, certain members of the LGB community felt there was a harmful idea at the core of the modern trans rights movement: the idea that we all possess a gender identity, separate from our biological sex, which defines whether we are men or women. Stemming from this was the belief that heterosexual males who claim to possess a “female gender” are lesbians. Many of these biological males accused the lesbians who rejected this idea of “transphobia”. In the eyes of these lesbians, they were once again being persecuted by the opposite sex after having largely won a decades-long struggle for the same rights as heterosexuals.Then, the very same organizations that had fought for gay rights embraced what would become known as “gender ideology.” These groups repeated the idea that transwomen/biological males were the same as women and thus that males could be lesbians and that females could be gay men. Eventually, these groups promoted the idea that children could be born in the wrong body and require drugs and surgeries to be their authentic selves. To top it all off, that there was to be “No debate!”Then, two lesbian activists disagreed. Their names were Bev Jackson and Kate Harris. Both had a long history of political activism. Jackson was a founding member of the Gay Liberation Front in 1970, and Harris was a champion of women's liberation. The two simply could not sit back and allow this new attack on their community to continue.
Bev Jackson, a founding member of the Gay Liberation Front (1970), discusses how she and Kate Harris, concerned by the implications of Stonewall's decision to alter its definition of sexual orientation in 2015 from “same-sex attracted” to “same-gender attracted,” co-founded LGB Alliance in 2019. Jackson details how by 2021, LGB Alliance had its status as a registered charity challenged by another British charity, Mermaids, accusing LGB Alliance of having “gone beyond the boundaries of civilised debate.” Historicising how much time, engery, and money this legal challenge cost LGB Alliance over the past two years, Jackson describes in detail how the witnesses from the opposing side in court seemed “entirely unprepared, as if they'd been grabbed off the street and sort of stuck there, adding, “They didn't seem to have any notion at all of what they were there for.” Describing the problems current within gender ideology and its current social, political and medical manifestations today—from its anti-science narrative to its homophobia to the sterilisation of gay youth—Jackson argues against the medicalisation model that is being presented as foreward-thinking, adding, “The greatest trick that is being played upon the world is that this is progressive, that this is kind, and that this is good. It is outrageous and it is homophobic rubbish!” Get full access to Savage Minds at savageminds.substack.com/subscribe

Worldwide, it is estimated that the number of menopausal women will reach 1.1 billion by 2025. Then why does the life-changing hormonal chaos of menopause still so feel so taboo? Hoping to rectify this, as Tuesday (18 October) marked World Menopause Day, Campaign's work and inspiration editor Imogen Watson talked to industry experts about the need to normalise menopause in the workplace, and how 90% of menopausal women wish brands were more inclusive of menopause.She was joined by writer and editor Jennifer Small, who recently dug into the $600bn menopause market, alongside Helen Normoyle, co-founder of My Menopause Centre, an online clinic and community empowering women to take control of their menopause, and Kate Harris, regional director of Nabs.And, up for review this week, Campaign highlights some recent ads, from Bombay Sapphire's "Saw this, made this" by Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO, Resuscitation Council, "The mankini you'd want to save" by Pablo, and Palace x Gucci "Things are looking up". Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This week's episode is all things early learning. This episode is full of pertinent information for any parent/caregiver looking for information on how to best support their child. Early Interventionists Gina Wilson, Jenn Choate, and Kate Harris join Eric Wilson, Johnny Sunshine, and Trent Denson to share more in-depth information about Early Learning and how developmental therapy works. The team discusses different developmental milestones parents/caregivers should look out for at different ages and how to seek support from TN Early Intervention System (TEIS). At Waves, developmental therapy (DT) can start as early as birth depending on the child. Services start with a referral through TEIS. Referrals can be made by doctors or caregivers. The team talks about what to look for in your child's developmental progress, how to talk to your doctor, and how to approach the TEIS referral process. If a doctor decides to "wait and see", our team suggests to "check and see". Getting into the TEIS process and developmental therapy are free to the family. In addition to discussing milestones and the referral process, the team also shares the progression of developmental therapy and how it has changed over the last 35 years. From a classroom setting to receiving services in natural environments, developmental therapy has become a support tool for parents/caregivers as much as it is for the children being supported. This week on Waves on Wheels you get to meet Eric! Eric is a longtime participant of Waves and has incredible stories to share.

We chat about lots of confidence things including visiting the bank manager in flipflops, and how the foundations of confidence can mean you either have a mansion on those foundations or you have a crumbling bungalow. Kate began her teaching career in 2000 and very quickly found a passion for Citizenship, PSHE, and student voice. Kate left teaching in 2014 to follow her dream of finding a way to support schools in developing SMSC & British Values, making it engaging to children and young people, and getting students to discuss the biggest issues affecting them today. Kate's Citizenship teaching days also developed her desire to see young people becoming more involved in democracy and voting. Kate co-founded VotesforSchools which enables any teacher regardless of subject or experience to feel confident to discuss tricky subjects and then vote, VotesforSchools takes this voting data and uses it to inform influential people and groups about what young people think and feel about a variety of political issues.Find out more about the incredible work VotesForSchools does by following them on the channels below:https://www.votesforschools.com/https://twitter.com/votesforschoolshttps://www.instagram.com/votesforschools/https://www.facebook.com/votesforschoolsConnect with Kate:kate@votesforschools.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-harris-767989110/Want to know more about me & Enrichment Coaching then follow the link below to my website. https://www.enrichmentcoaching.co.uk/
Eastertide: Renewing Our Vocation / Scripture Text: Genesis 1:26-28, 2:15; John 4:31-38 / Kate Harris
Humans have an innate desire to explore. It's what drove our early ancestors to migrate out of Africa and why modern humans dream of one day landing on Mars. But according to Kate Harris, we don't need to travel to another planet to satisfy our collective need for exploration. We just need to find a deeper sense of belonging to the one we live on. Harris is the author of Lands of Lost Borders and she spoke at The Walrus Talks: Exploration in 2020. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Kate Harris is a business strategist and brand builder from sunny Brisbane, Australia. She helps to get people over their limiting beliefs in order to scale their businesses to the next level.

In the summer of 2019, Anna Welch traveled from New Zealand to San Francisco to begin cycling across the United States. She was inspired by the Kate Harris book Lands of Lost Borders – A Journey on the Silk Road. She wanted to see a cross-section of American culture and geography in a way that tested her mental and physical limits. She followed the Western Express and Trans Am routes, using maps from the Adventure Cycling Association completing her journey to Yorktown Virginia in 83 days.

Kate Harris -- writer, scientist, and extreme cyclist – talks about the trip she made with her friend Mel, tracing Marco Polo’s route across Central Asia and Tibet. The journey is the subject of Harris’s new book, Lands of Lost Borders: a Journey on the Silk Road (rebroadcast).
What does it mean to be an explorer in the modern era? How does one reconcile with the captivating myths told of “Old World” explorers charting uncharted territory with the more cynical truths surrounding their real intentions and actions? In this segment, Kate Harris, author of the memoir ‘Lands of Lost Borders: A Journey on the Silk Road,’ attempts to reconcile with these questions about exploration, both in the past and present sense, as well as her yearning to challenge the legitimacy of borders in the geographical sense, but also in the metaphorical sense as well. What borders exist within ourselves, preventing us from exploring the limits of our being and living fully? We discuss her journey to travel the Silk Road with these questions in mind. “Harris set off by bicycle down a short section of the fabled Silk Road with her childhood friend Mel Yule. This trip was just a simulacrum of exploration, she thought, not the thing itself—a little adventure to pass the time until she could launch for outer space. But somewhere in between sneaking illegally across Tibet, studying the history of science and exploration at Oxford, and staring down a microscope for a doctorate at MIT, she realized that an explorer, in any day and age, is by definition the kind of person who refuses to live between the lines. Forget charting maps, naming peaks, leaving footprints on another planet: what she yearned for was the feeling of soaring completely out of bounds. And where she'd felt that most intensely was on a bicycle, on a bygone trading route. So Harris quit the laboratory and hit the Silk Road again with Yule, this time determined to bike it from beginning to end.” Kate Harris is a writer with a grudge against borders and a knack for getting lost. Her essays, travel features, and poetry have appeared in The Walrus, Canadian Geographic, Sierra, CutBank, Arc Poetry Magazine, and The Georgia Review, among other publications, and cited in Best American Essays and Best American Travel Writing. A Rhodes scholar and Morehead-Cain scholar, she was named one of Canada’s top modern-day explorers and in 2012 won the Ellen Meloy Desert Writers Award. Her journeys edging the limits of nations, science, and sanity have taken her to all seven continents, often by ski or bike. She's been profiled in Guernica, The Globe and Mail, VOGUE Germany, and the short film The Art of Wild. When she isn't wandering the world for work and play, she lives off-grid with her wife and dog in a log cabin in Atlin, British Columbia. 'Lands of Lost Borders' is her first book.

In this episode, I speak with Kate Harris, author of the captivating travel memoir ‘Lands of Lost Borders: A Journey on the Silk Road.’ We discuss living off-grid in Atlin, British Columbia, Kate’s complex relationship with Marco Polo and the famed and mythologized explorers from the “Old World,” and her life-expanding decision to traverse the famed Silk Road by bike with her childhood friend. What does it mean to be an explorer in the modern era? How does one reconcile with the captivating myths told of “Old World” explorers charting uncharted territory with the more cynical truths surrounding their real intentions and actions?
