The more compassionate we are, the more we will want to help others, and often it is our own suffering that helps us understand those experiences outside of ours. Today we speak to Joseph Bradford about how the challenges of his childhood led him to dedicate his life to helping the homeless. Joseph started a non-profit called B.A.R.E. Truth, an organization that provides mentorship, independent living assistance, and wellness services to impoverished individuals and families, helping them attain healthy, purpose-driven lives, ultimately changing the economic and living conditions of communities. Our conversation begins as always with Joseph’s upbringing and he tells a story about being born to a very young mother as the oldest of his siblings. He talks about the responsibilities placed on his shoulders to look after those more vulnerable than himself, even while he was just a small kid. This sparked an early tendency in Joseph to be caring and to see that the people around him were safe before he thought of his own wellbeing. We hear about the many challenges Joseph faced through school and college before he finally wound up in California and began to help the homeless after giving away half his dinner one night. Joseph talks about consistently trying to lend a hand and how this process slowly scaled up to the point where he started B.A.R.E Truth. We spend the last part of our conversation focusing on good approaches to helping the homeless, the work Joseph does to keep his non-profit running, and the centrality of his desire to care in keeping him motivated each day.Key Points From This Episode:What childhood was like for Joseph growing up in the projects of Kansas City.How basketball helped Joseph feel free and escape being the oldest sibling.The feeling of responsibility that Joseph had as a child with no father figure.Lessons Joseph learned about the value of taking care of others as a child.The many people in Joseph’s family who died after his father did.Joseph’s relationship with his neighbor and his early definition of success.How Joseph offset being teased for being dark-skinned by being good at school.Life and responsibilities for Joseph in different shelters after his house burned down.More wealth and big changes for Joseph and his family after his mom got a boyfriend.How Joseph sold drugs during his struggling phase and why he stopped.Work and college for Joseph after high school and his mom and her boyfriend separated.Why Joseph wishes he encouraged his siblings more.Joseph’s opinion on drugs and alcohol and why he abstained.New challenges Joseph faced through different moves after finishing college.A desire Joseph developed to feed the hungry after giving a homeless person half his meal one night.How receiving help would have made Joseph’s life better and how this influenced his choice to help others.How Joseph learned property management with the goal of providing housing to the homeless.Joseph’s core desire to help people and how this feeds into his work with B.A.R.E Truth.The role Joseph’s mother played in keeping him motivated to achieve his dream.Connections Joseph built up as he secured food and spoke to different people.How Joseph straddled his job while also handing out food at night.Joseph’s explanation of the words that make up the name B.A.R.E Truth.Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:Light WatkinsJoseph Bradford on LinkedInB.A.R.E TruthB.A.R.E Truth on Instagram&a

Today’s guest is Simon Glenn-Gregg, News Engineer at The Washington Post. He joins us to talk about using Elixir to build a prototype for a platform the news house recently implemented to visualize the results of the November 2020 elections in real-time. While the job title of ‘News Engineer’ makes it seem like Simon invents news, this is not the case. He is focused on software related to publishing at The Washington Post, and in particular, has been working on building their election visualization platform for the past two years. Before the final iteration of the platform was built, the software engineering team at The Washington Post were given a period to test different technologies as an experiment to find the best fit, and Simon decided to try his hand at Elixir and Phoenix. He talks about what led him to this choice, and his experiences building out his prototype which he demonstrated on a dataset generated by the North Carolina 3rd Congressional District house race in September. Simon tells us about how the pitch went, what the team at The Washington Post was especially impressed by, and what led to the choice to use Node in the end. Simon talks about the culture of openness to new technologies at The Washington Post as well as some of the limitations to their adoption. We also hear about how the final version of the visualization platform held up during the elections proper, and Simon’s plans to include Elixir in future stacks due to its amazing abilities as far as concurrency and memory. Tune in today! Key Points From This Episode: What kinds of projects Simon works on at The Washington Post as a ‘news engineer’. The live updating election visualizer that Simon was working on at The Washington Post. What went into building the infrastructure for this platform and how Elixir was chosen as a candidate. A blog post about Elixir’s memory management; abilities Elixir has regarding concurrency. The first steps Simon took toward learning Elixir and Phoenix by building simple projects. Simon’s process of integrating his Elixir app into the current stack and people at The Washington Post. Testing the app on the 3rd Congressional District house race in North Carolina, and pitching to the team. Why it is hard to implement projects in new languages at The Washington Post. How the voting process went after the pitch and which project won. What the audience at the pitch loved about Elixir, and what the stumbling blocks were. The nature of working at a deadline-driven place like The Washington Post when it comes to adopting new technologies. Sources The Washington Post used to get their election data. What technologies and methods the team used to handle the size of data some election moments generated. Which parts about the election visualizer that ended up being built using Node would have been easier to do in Elixir. The other side of the coin – what made writing the app in Python and JavaScript easier. What future projects Elixir might be better suited to at The Washington Post. Simon’s background, education, and how he learned programming in previous jobs Why Simon stuck programming out and decided it was the right path for him. The need for software engineers at The Washington Post and why they are recruiting so often. A deep dive into the tech stack at The Washington Post and how they render their pages and maps. How Simon feels having reached the end of a successful project that millions of people engaged with. Future projects at The Washington Post and Simon’s hopes to incorporate more Elixir. A funny story about having to manually update the votes from rural New Hampshire into the app. Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: SmartLogic — https://smartlogic.io/ Simon Glenn-Gregg on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/simongle/ Simon Glenn-Gregg — http://simonglenngregg.com/ The Washington Post — https://www.washingtonpost.com/ Jason Holt on Twitter — https://twitter.com/offpol ‘Elixir RAM and the Template of Doom’ — https://www.evanmiller.org/elixir-ram-and-the-template-of-doom.html Erik Reyna on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikreyna/ Jeremy Bowers on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremyjbowers/ Associated Press — https://apnews.com/ Edison — https://www.edisonresearch.com/ Whole Whale — https://www.wholewhale.com/ The Century Foundation — https://tcf.org/ Arc Publishing — https://www.arcpublishing.com/ Sundi Myint on Twitter — https://twitter.com/sundikhin Justus Eapen — https://twitter.com/JustusEapen Eric Oestrich on Twitter — https://twitter.com/ericoestrich Special Guests: Simon Glenn-Gregg and Sundi Myint.

We continue our discussion with artists participating in Indivisible 2020 today with Anna Stump, Erin Yoshi, Ted Meyer, and Kalynn Campbell. In this jam-packed show, the guests address various pertinent social and political issues. We begin by hearing what indivisibility means to everyone, where Anna and Ted, who live in a rural, red part of the country share why they have chosen not to publicly express their political views. Both Erin and Kalynn feel that while indivisibility is possible and has been achieved at times, the current moment is deeply divided. We then talk about the rise of political discourse in popular culture and how the art reflective of this, such as Black Lives Matter murals and poster art, inspires our guests. We could not have a discussion about indivisibility without touching on the election, and we hear everyone’s take on Joe Biden as the candidate, why this election is more about voting against Trump than anything else, and how we might see the positives in the voter suppression tactics. Increasingly, people – particularly Gen Z, as Anna highlights – are becoming aware of the role they play in shaping society and are taking actionable steps to shift the narrative. We also touch on climate change, where the guests share their respective stark realizations they have had about this issue. As the show wraps up, we get a glimpse into the rationale behind the work everyone has submitted to Indivisible 2020. This insightful, powerful conversation left us with a sense of hope that artists have a big role to play in uniting our divided country. Tune in today to hear more!   Key Points From This Episode: What indivisible means to Anna and the difficulty she has living in a very red state.

The intersectionality of the social issues we face today. Erin’s experience of the orange sky in San Francisco during the wildfires.

Today Dr. Stucki interviews Dr. Scott Weiskopf, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon practicing in Tennessee in the Memphis area. Ever since he introduced a fully digital workflow and started printing his own surgical guides, his dental surgery practice has been transformed because it allows him to produce and place top-quality implants. In this conversation, Dr. Weiskopf shares how his appointments with patients who need implants typically proceed, when in the process the guides are made, and the handful of cases where placing the implant freehand is still better. Tuning in, listeners will get a sense of the cost implications of printing the guides yourself, how it benefits your patients and practice, and where you can purchase the cheapest – yet effective – 3D printing equipment. Our guest shares details on his grafting techniques and materials, how he approaches third molar extractions, and what he favors in terms of instruments. The two also discuss drugs and dosages and share a bit about their work philosophies.

We are continuing our discussions with artists participating in the Indivisible 2020 exhibition that Not Real Art is a media partner of, and today’s guest is none other than Linda Vallejo. Linda is a multimedia artist who consolidates a range of influences from a lifetime of travel and study to create work that explores contemporary social, cultural, and political issues. Man One joins Linda in conversation, and these two powerful artists in our community discuss their Latinx identities and the way this has informed their work. They first unpack what indivisibility means to them and share how they both came to realize that they had been brainwashed into the belief that all Americans are united. As people of color, they have lived experience of the palpable division rampant in our society. We discuss the importance of questioning institutions, and Man One shares why he left the Catholic Church, which is difficult in the highly religious Mexican community. After discussing this tension, Linda talks about what being a socio-political artist means to her and why she does not subscribe to the conventional understanding of this type of artistry. Giving us insights into her process, we see that Linda’s work is highly considered and thoughtful. Our conversation also touches on each artist’s respective work, colorism both within the Latinx community and society at large, and what true diversity entails.

In this episode, we look at the science of happiness. While most of us are interested in happiness and pursue it at least to some degree, we lack the scientific understanding of how it works. Today I discuss the issues of happiness and why it matters to us so much and explore the discipline of positive psychology and its contributions to the science of happiness. I also highlight some examples of building happiness in our lives from an evidence-based perspective. Joining in, listeners will learn about the factors that are strongly tied to happiness, how a deep sense of contentment impacts us on a physical level, and why the importance of happiness and wellbeing ought to be a global mission that is reflected in public policy. You will be encouraged to know that, despite the influence of genetics and circumstances on happiness, there are several ways in which we can build more contentment into our lives—particularly by cultivating the right mindset and taking appropriate action. Key Points From This Episode:What we mean by ‘happiness’ and its association with relationships and experiences.Happiness is unrelated to material possessions, final destinations, or one-time events. The factors that contribute to contentment or a state of peaceful happiness.What a meta-analysis of happiness revealed about the physiological benefits of happiness. The study proving the positive relationship between happiness, health, and longevity. The correlation between reported happiness and life satisfaction scores in the Cantril Ladder.Hear about the sustainability aims involved in the UN’s International Day of Happiness. Why happiness and wellbeing need to be a universal goal and factored into public policy. An overview of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and how positive psychology contributes to our understanding of happiness. Key Messages:Happiness has many definitions and it can be different for everyone. It is a state of wellbeing and contentment. Happiness is not a destination but a daily practice. Studies show it improves physical health, increases longevity, and increases life satisfaction. The science of happiness is studied in the discipline of positivity psychology.

The theme of today's episode is happiness and overall wellbeing! I will be talking about how wellbeing has traditionally been measured, such as with gross domestic product, before looking at some more novel approaches to gauging happiness and wellbeing, through genuine progress indicators and gross national happiness. We'll be diving into the concept of the middle path, which is a deep-seated idea that has roots in many traditions, from Buddhism to Christianity, with many ancient civilizations possessing something analogous to it. It is all about avoiding extremes and helps us attain contentment without directly seeking out pleasure. It also means avoiding too many restrictions, self-denial, and austere lifestyles. I'll be talking about what happiness is, where it comes from, and the ways we can foster and observe it in our inner and outer lives. I also want to consider happiness in ways that are less traditional — something beyond mere joy, cheer, and pleasure. Lasting happiness can often be characterized as something more akin to contentment, peace, and satisfaction. Ultimately, sustainable wellbeing can only be achieved when the personal and planetary align, so what is good for you and me and the planet will lead to more lasting happiness all around! Key Points From This Episode: • What is happiness? The many ways that we can broadly define it. • The deep history of the measurement of happiness and wellness. • Simon Kuznets and the idea of gross domestic product; correlation and inconsistencies.• The examples of Singapore and Costa Rica and the genuine progress indicator.• Gross national happiness; the indicator that takes the focus away from economics. • The country of Bhutan as a champion of Gross National Happiness. • The World Happiness Report and the International Day of Happiness.• Components of gross national happiness; complimentary material and spiritual development.• The nations who are at the top of the World Happiness Report!• The middle path as the way to happiness! An old idea that can help us all.• Understanding what this median means; acceptance, non-attachment and mindfulness.• The current situation in Bhutan and its four basic pillars for development.• Applying the middle path to happiness to our own lives; avoiding extremes.• Meditation, inner dialogue, and acceptance — adding to the inner ocean. Quotables: “There are also definitions of happiness that include things like contentment and satisfaction.” — Kristina Hunter [0:01:25]“What I wanted to talk about today though is more than the idea of happiness but how do we get there.” — Kristina Hunter [0:12:29]“The middle way is the way of moderation. It is living in between extremes.” — Kristina Hunter [0:13:00]“I personally like to think of it as having an inner ocean. That is our true selves.” — Kristina Hunter [0:15:39] Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Kristina Hunter FlourishingSustainable Wellbeing Starter KitWorld Happiness Report International Day of Happiness

On today’s episode, we are joined by Mark Goodfield of The Blunt Bean Counter blog to talk about estate planning and wills. Mark is a partner at BDO Canada, a national accounting firm and has created a wealth of content on investing, tax and the relationship between the two. He provides full-service wealth management, but does not advise on nor manage investments. Estate planning is a difficult task because you are confronted with your mortality, but it is hugely important because without a clear-cut plan, those left behind will have to deal with many complications in the midst of grieving. Mark has seen these complications with some of his own clients and the negative effects it has had on them. Along with conventional estate planning, such as drawing up a will, Mark also strongly advises transparency about your finances both with your partner and your children. This will not only ensure that there are no surprises, but also allow them to gain a level of financial literacy to deal with money, if they currently do not have that responsibility. He believes that people are not open enough when talking about money, which has implications long after they are gone. While estate planning is largely to do with finances and assets, Mark does not believe that money automatically correlates with success. This is why it is equally important to consider the legacy you leave behind in other ways, such as strong relationships and giving time to good causes. For this and much more, join us today!

Today’s episode is really special because we have Emmy Award winner Jorge Gutierrez with us.  Jorge is a Mexican animator, painter, writer and director who, along with his wife Sandra Equihua, created the multiple Annie and Emmy Award winning animated television series, El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera, for Nickelodeon. Born in Mexico City and raised in Tijuana, Jorge has completed various films, cartoons, illustrations and paintings exploring his love affair with Mexican pop and folk culture. With an unmistakable can-do attitude, Jorge shares how he views feedback as an opportunity to improve and how he has learned to put his ego aside during the alchemical process of working through and incorporating the suggestions of others. He explains what he finds challenging about working for someone else and why he is willing to play any part in the film production process to serve the greater vision. We also dive into the invaluable lessons he’s learned at art school, how his challenges as a Latino immigrant made him stronger and how fear has been a positive driving force in his life. Finally, Jorge reminds us about the importance of falling in love with the process instead of always focusing on the end result. So be sure to join us today for expert insight and a good laugh! Key Points From This Episode: What to expect from the upcoming Not Real Art Conference. Where Sourdough’s name comes from. The importance of putting your ego aside in your creative work. Synthesizing and distilling colleagues’ commentary on his writing. Why there’s no cheat sheet to writing. How he broke out of the boxes in the industry. The problem with art schools not always offering integrated classes. Why specializing is not necessarily the best option. The problem with many artists. Competing by outworking. The fall of 2D and the rise of CG animation. How schooling is no guarantee for work. The challenges of being a Latino immigrant. More about his father’s influence in his life. The role of family. Why Generation X is very pragmatic. Learning form failure and hard work. Focusing on the process, not the result. Jorge’s first solo art show. And much more!     Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Jorge Gutierrez — http://www.super-macho.com/ Jorge Gutierrez on Twitter — https://twitter.com/mexopolis Jorge Gutierrez on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/mexopolis/?hl=en CalArts — https://calarts.edu/ Tim Burton — http://timburton.com/ Man One — http://www.manone.com/ Man One on Twitter — https://twitter.com/ManOneArt Scott “Sourdough” Power — https://www.instagram.com/sourdoughpower/ Not Real Art Conference — https://www.notrealartconference.com/ Not Real Art on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/notrealartofficial/ Hueman — http://www.huemannature.com/ Logan Hicks — http://workhorsevisuals.com/new/

075 The One that’s All About Corrosion Coupons Episode 75: Show Notes If you are an industrial water treater, most likely you have seen a corrosion coupon at some point.  However, if you haven't, today’s episode will teach you all about them.   I remember a time when I placed an ad for my corrosion coupon lab in an industry magazine.  After we created the layout for the ad, the sales rep called me to tell me I forgot the “coupon” in my graphic.  The graphic I created featured 3 corrosion coupons.  He wanted to know what discount (coupon) I was going to offer people who used my corrosion coupon lab.  I thought that was funny.  It also gave me the prospective that corrosion coupons tell you how much metal is being taken off of the system.  Finding this information out quickly can save you a ton of money on your heat transfer equipment.  So maybe the sales rep was on to something.  Corrosion coupons are very inexpensive ways that you can measure metal lose in a system you are treating for corrosion protection.  Because they are inexpensive and easy to use, you can use them to pro-activity make a change in your program based on their results.  In my career, I have analyzed 1000’s of corrosion coupons.  Do anything enough, and you get pretty good at it.  Scaling UP! H2O has received a large amount of questions around corrosion coupons.  I normally answer a few questions from the audience on Pinks and Blues episodes.  Since there were so many corrosion coupon questions, I decided to make it an entire show on everything you ever wanted to know about corrosion coupons.    Join me as I talk about corrosion coupons from A(l) to Z(n).  Key Points From This Episode: What’s Corrosion Coupons? [0:01:01] Corrosion Coupons Analysis [0:02:35] Types of Corrosion Coupons [0:07:40] Corrosion Coupons Standards [0:12:35] Guidelines [0:30:55] Analysis [0:31:16] And much more!

Reggie Brooks has achieved what many people consider to be impossible. He went from making $36,000 per year at the local telephone company, to making over $40,000 per month in his real estate business. Starting out with very little money, Reggie began his investment career in 1986.

Today on the show, we are joined again by casino gaming expert and owner of Action Currency, Jeff B. Jeff has written for TravelZork and in the previous episode, we tackled the concept of Casino THEO aka Theoretical Loss or “THEO,” for short. With all the latest news about the Vegas shooting tragedy, the topic of Advantage Player, better known as AP, has come up quite a bit, with more and more people realizing that being an Advantage Player is possible. Today, Jeff is going to talk a bit about what an AP is and what an AP isn’t, how AP’s make their money, promotions, and proof by intimidation. Key Points From This Episode: • What is an AP? (Advantage Player) • Proof by intimidation. • Why you can beat the casino. • Three generic ways to be an AP. • Making money directly off the game. • Making money off of promotions. • Can you be a ‘recreational’ AP? • Where AP’s often make their money. • AP as a lifestyle versus an income.

Welcome back to ZorkCast. Today on the show we are going to have a fun talk, or at least what I consider to be a really fun talk, and that is talking about one of my favorite casino properties in the world. Now we can pause for a moment and think about which property that is, but just know it is definitely not in Las Vegas. The property that I am going to talk a little bit about today is Borgata, Atlantic City. It is really a spectacular casino property. So why is Borgata special? Well, Borgata is relatively new as far as Atlantic City casinos are concerned and it was probably the first casino in Atlantic City that was built from the ground up as more of a luxury casino resort.
