Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!Gwendolyn (Wendy) Bounds, an accomplished journalist, author and tech executive, shares her journey from journalism at the Wall Street Journal to the fast-paced world of tech startups. The episode kicks off with a remembrance of the 1994 Photo Marketing Association convention, where Bounds and Dead Pixels Society host Gary Pageau first met and witnessed the dawn of digital photography with Apple's QuickTake camera. Bounds provides a unique perspective on Kodak's struggle to transition from film to digital during George Fisher's leadership, contrasting it with Fuji's successful evolution into a diversified imaging giant. The conversation takes a thoughtful turn as they unpack the lessons from the Advanced Photo System failure, a cautionary tale about innovation that didn't align with consumer needs. Bounds discusses her transition from journalism to tech, reflecting on how her book, "Little Chapel on the River," was inspired by the aftermath of 9/11 and a deep affection for a particular place. Finally, the topic shifts to personal reinvention, where sparked by a simple dinner party conversation, Bounds embraced the challenge and pushed beyond her comfort zone to achieve global ranking. This personal transformation story illustrates the power of facing obstacles head-on, whether in sports, career, or life transitions and is highlighted in her new book, "Not Too Late."Energize your sales with Shareme.chat, the proven texting platform.

Excalibur is an example of an “only in vegas” experience you can have if theming remains. I'm not saying you have to have people dressed up in character but you need to keep the castle…and the wall decorations to help sell the theme.

(Rock Hill, S.C.) -- The annual ghost tours of Tillman Hall on the Winthrop University campus are planned for Oct. 22-23 from 7 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. However, Tillman isn't the only building on campus that is reportedly haunted. Margret Nance, Johnson Hall and the Little Chapel are also said to be haunted, according to many current and former students, staff and alumni. Why do ghost stories arise and what do they mean? The Palmetto Report's Christian Smith speaks with Sean McCloud, a religious studies professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, to learn more about the evolution of ghost stories.
Riverview Park is one of the smallest of Pittsburgh's five regional parks, and the least visited. And Northsiders? They kind of like it that way. Created in 1894, there are so many stories we could share about Riverview Park. But on this episode, we're diving into a great comeback story: the restoration of the Chapel Shelter and the surrounding landscape. Slated for demolition not that long ago, it's now one of the most rented shelters in the park system.
