A Kawerau paper mill has found a new power source as New Zealand struggles with a looming winter power crunch. A newly released briefing to the Minister shows electricity supply is tight, and gas supply needs to be maintained until suitable alternatives are found. Essity's Kawerau Paper Mill has become the first in the world to create a machine that runs entirely on geothermal steam. Essity General Manager Mark Stevens told Kerre Woodham that the main area of benefit is sustainability – with the mill producing the same amount of paper with 66% less carbon output.

Big Town, a prominent long-running radio drama, captured the hearts of listeners with its compelling storylines and captivating characters. At its core, the show featured a corruption-fighting newspaper editor, a role initially portrayed by the renowned actor Edward G. Robinson from 1937 to 1942. During this time, Robinson brought his signature intensity to the role, echoing the conscience-stricken tabloid editor he had portrayed in the film Five Star Final. After Robinson's departure, the lead role was taken over by Edward Pawley from 1943 to 1952. Pawley's interpretation of the editor was more hands-on, actively engaging in crime-fighting endeavors. Under his stewardship, Big Town became a cultural phenomenon, transcending the radio airwaves and captivating audiences through film and television adaptations. The radio program, which aired from 1937 to 1952, featured a talented cast and crew. Edward G. Robinson's portrayal of Steve Wilson, the crusading editor of the Illustrated Press, was complemented by Claire Trevor's portrayal of his reporter sidekick "Lorelei." Over time, the female lead evolved from a society editor to a star crime reporter, providing a conscience to the tabloid-minded Wilson. The radio series achieved immense popularity, consistently ranking among the top radio programs of its time. It boasted a listening audience of between 10 and 20 million people, affirming its widespread appeal. In the realm of film, Big Town made its mark through four movies produced by Paramount Pictures' Pine-Thomas Productions studio. These films, released between 1947 and 1948, starred Phillip Reed as Steve Wilson and Hillary Brooke as Lorelei. All four films were based on radio and screenplays by Maxwell Shane, ensuring continuity with the original source material. Big Town's journey to television began in 1950, offering viewers a live telecast on CBS. The production later transitioned to film after relocating from New York City to Hollywood in 1952. The television series ran until 1956, airing on both CBS and NBC during its six-season run. Throughout its television tenure, Big Town underwent several changes, including the introduction of a documentary style similar to the popular show Dragnet. This shift brought a new level of realism and authenticity to the storytelling, further captivating audiences. The television series featured a talented cast, with Patrick McVey and Mark Stevens portraying Steve Wilson in different seasons. Five actresses graced the role of reporter Lorelei Kilbourne, adding depth and diversity to the character. Big Town's legacy extended beyond its radio and television incarnations. The series was adapted into a comic book published by DC Comics, reaching an even broader audience. The comic book captured the essence of the radio and television shows, bringing the crime-fighting adventures of Steve Wilson and Lorelei Kilbourne to life in a new medium. The enduring appeal of Big Town lies in its timeless themes and relatable characters. The show's exploration of corruption, justice, and the pursuit of truth resonated with audiences, making it a beloved classic in the annals of radio, film, and television. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dwight-allen0/support
You probably know Essity more what's in your house: Purex and Sorbent in your loo and Handee towels in your kitchen. You may also know that this tissue is produced in a mill in Kawerau, central North Island, across the road from the old Tasman Pulp & Paper mill. Perhaps what you didn't know is that by the end of this year, the Essity mill will have ditched gas to run almost all on renewable geothermal steam. This shift will reduce the mill's carbon footprint by 66% compared to 2009, cutting emissions equivalent to taking over 2,200 cars off the road.

Kicking off at number five, we revisited Episode 34 with Nigel Moore, titled "Perfect MSP Pricing." This episode is a must-listen for anyone struggling with the intricacies of MSP pricing strategies. Nigel, the founder of The Tech Tribe, delves into the essentials of structuring your pricing to avoid the all-too-common bespoke deals that can stifle an MSP's growth. We discussed the continual evolution of pricing models and how establishing standard packages can significantly streamline your sales process and client onboarding. The fourth spot is claimed by Episode 75 with Daniel Welling, discussing how to "Increase the Value of Your MSP." This show is crucial for MSPs considering their exit strategy or simply aiming to enhance their business valuation. Daniel's expertise in M&A shines through as we cover the importance of preparing your MSP for a potential sale from the ground up, emphasising long-term contracts and a robust operational structure to attract serious offers. Next, at number three, is Episode 125 with my business partner Stuart Warwick, on "Picking Low Hanging Fruit." This episode focuses on the pivotal role of effective account management in not only maintaining but also expanding your client relationships. We outlined a five-step process to refine your account management strategy, ensuring that your business consistently nurtures and grows its existing client base, thereby boosting your profitability without the constant chase for new leads. The runner-up in our countdown is Episode 182, titled "Help, I Need to Get Out of My Own Way," featuring a heartfelt discussion with Mark Stevens. This episode serves as a beacon for any MSP owner feeling overwhelmed or stuck in a rut. Mark's story is a testament to the power of perseverance and the importance of seeking support when needed. His experience highlights the transformative impact that stepping back and trusting a structured coaching process can have on both personal and business growth. Finally, topping the chart at number one is Episode 86 with Richard Tubb, focused on "Mindset Magic." Richard's insights into the MSP business mindset are invaluable. We explored how shifting from being a busybody to a strategic thinker can dramatically improve your business operations. His emphasis on routine over discipline and the necessity of removing ego to foster vulnerability within leadership were particularly eye-opening.

As a contract player for Warner Brothers and Fox, Mark Stevens starred in film noir and dramas alongside the likes of Lucille Ball and Richard Widmark. But even though he was hailed as one of the most promising new stars of Hollywood, his career never really took off. We'll hear Stevens in his one and only appearance on Suspense; he plays a man who walks into the wrong house and into a murder in "Tree of Life" (originally aired on CBS on January 2, 1947). Plus, he recreates one of his screen roles as The Lux Radio Theatre presents The Dark Corner (originally aired on CBS on November 10, 1947).

Mark Stevens' story begins in the quaint town of Melton Mowbray, known for its pork pies and Stilton cheese, but today, it's also becoming known for Mark1 IT Solutions. Mark's journey is a testament to the challenges and triumphs faced by many in the MSP sector. Joining us on the podcast, Mark openly shares the hurdles he encountered when transitioning from a traditional break-fix IT support mentality to a managed services provider (MSP) model, a shift that required significant changes in both mindset and operations. During our discussion, Mark Stevens candidly discusses how his business, which he had been leading for about seven years, had only recently begun to identify as an MSP. This shift came with its own set of challenges, particularly as the business approached the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic initially brought a surge in demand for Mark1 IT Solutions' services as businesses scrambled to set up remote work capabilities. However, the reliance on project-based income soon proved unstable, leading Mark to seek external guidance and support. What makes Mark Stevens' story so impactful is his openness about the personal and professional growth necessary to navigate his business through turbulent times. He shares that a major turning point came when he engaged with various communities and resources, such as CompTIA and Tech Tribe, and eventually our MSP growth hub. This engagement not only broadened his perspective but also embedded him deeper into the MSP community, facilitating a collaborative and supportive environment that was crucial for his development. Mark's journey is filled with learning experiences, from understanding the importance of monthly recurring revenue to embracing the MSP model fully. He explains how adopting new operational frameworks and focusing on self-development, including insights gained from reading "The Chimp Paradox," helped him reshape his approach to business management. This reshaping was not just about business strategies but also about personal growth, tackling challenges like ego and imposter syndrome that many business owners face. A significant part of our conversation highlights the value of reaching out for help and how this has been instrumental in Mark Stevens' success. He emphasises the importance of getting out of your own way, a phrase that resonated with him deeply and one that he credits for much of his recent business achievements. This concept of self-awareness and stepping back to allow professional support to guide his decisions has led to substantial improvements in both the operational efficiency and profitability of Mark1 IT Solutions. Today, Mark1 IT Solutions is not only surviving but thriving, with plans to expand the team further and reach new heights in terms of revenue and service quality. Mark Stevens attributes much of this success to the support structures and networks he has embraced, underscoring the importance of community and expert guidance in the MSP industry. For any MSPs out there feeling stuck or unsure of the next steps, Mark Stevens' story is a powerful reminder of the strength found in vulnerability and the success that comes from seeking help. His journey is a clear illustration of how transformative it can be to get out of your own way and allow structured, expert guidance to lead the way in scaling your business.

EPISODE 30 - “Robert Walker: Old Hollywood's Tragic Boy Next Door” - 04/08/2024 No one played sensitive, lost souls quite like ROBERT WALKER. However, he is best known for playing one of the most complicated, psychopaths in film history, Bruno Antony in ALFRED HITCHCOCK's masterpiece “Strangers On A Train” (1951). His journey from playing sensitive innocents to playing Bruno is reflective of his troubled, turbulent life, and the heartbreak from which he never recovered. This week, we'll discuss the artistry and the tragedy of this incredible actor.

Playlist Track Time Start Time Opening and Introduction (Thom Holmes) 11:57 00:00 1. Herbie Hancock, Herbie Hancock Demonstrates The Rhodes Piano (1973 Rhodes). A terrific flexi-disc produced by Rhodes and narrated by Hancock who tells an interesting story about his first encounter with the instrument on a Miles Davis session and then he walks the keyboard through a series of effects. He speaks with the authority of a proud electronics tinkerer who understands the nuances that make this instrument so beloved by jazz musicians. This flexi-disc was originally delivered in the November 8, 1973 issue of Down Beat magazine. I provide both sides of the disc, in entirety. Tunes included during the demonstration include parts of Watermelon Man, Maiden Voyage, and The Spook. Soloist, Rhodes Electric Piano, Voice, Herbie Hancock. I thought it would be wisest to lead off this podcast with an overview of the Rhodes even though it is out of chronological sequence, being from 1973. We then go back a few years to hear tracks in proper time order. 12:48 11:57 2. The Don Ellis Orchestra, “Open Beauty” from Electric Bath (1967 Columbia). Alto Saxophone, Flute, Soprano Saxophone, Joe Roccisano, Ruben Leon; Baritone Saxophone, Flute, Bass Clarinet, John Magruder; Bass, Dave Parlato, Frank De La Rosa; Bass, Sitar, Ray Neapolitan; Congas, Bongos, Chino Valdes; Drums, Steve Bohannon; Leader, Trumpet, Don Ellis; Percussion, Alan Estes; Piano, Clavinet, Fender Electric Piano Fender, Mike Lang; Tenor Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Ron Starr; Tenor Saxophone, Flute, Piccolo Flute, Clarinet, Ira Schulman; Timbales, Vibraphone, Percussion , Mark Stevens; Trombone, Dave Sanchez, Ron Myers, Terry Woodson; Trumpet, Alan Weight, Bob Harmon, Ed Warren, Glenn Stuart. 5:33 24:44 3. Miles Davis, “Stuff” from Miles In The Sky (1968 Columbia). I think this was Miles' first album recorded using the Fender Rhodes, played by Herbie Hancock. See the opening tracks from this podcast for a story about this session from Hancock. Bass, Ron Carter; Drums, Tony Williams; Piano, Fender Electric Piano, Herbie Hancock; Tenor Saxophone, Wayne Shorter; Trumpet, Miles Davis. 16:59 30:14 4. Joe Zawinul, “The Soul Of A Village (Part II)” from The Rise & Fall Of The Third Stream (1968 Vortex). Zawinul, along with Hancock, was an early adopter of the Fender Rhodes.

Oliver Nelson and Steve Allen, “Go Fly a Kite” from Soulful Brass (1968 Impulse). Another Steve Allen record, whom we heard from in part 1 playing the Wurlitzer Electric Piano.

Arranged by Oliver Nelson; Rock-Si-Chord, piano, Steve Allen; Drums, Jimmy Gordon; session musicians, Barney Kessel, Bobby Bryant, Larry Bunker, Roger Kellaway, Tom Scott; Produced by Bob Thiele. 2:30 51:24 6. J & K “Mojave” from Betwixt & Between (1969 A&M, CTI). “J” is J.J. Johnson (trombonist) and “K” is Kai Winding (trombonist). Their ensemble included Roger Kellaway playing the electric clavinette. An example of using the clavinet in jazz. This was most likely a Hohner Clavinet Model C which had just been introduced in 1968. Recorded at Van Gelder Studios during late 1968. 2:31 53:54 7. Albert Ayler, “New Generation” from New Grass (1969 Impulse). An electric harpsichord played by Call Cobbs adds some subtle comping to this buoyant tune written by Ayler, Mary Parks, Rose Marie McCoy.

Sun Ra And His Intergalactic Research Arkestra, “Black Forest Myth” from It's After The End Of The World - Live At The Donaueschingen And Berlin Festivals (1971 MPS Records). You can hear Sun Ra enticing other-worldly sounds from a Farfisa organ beginning at about 1:35. Recorded in 1970.

Recorded at Ballon Theater, Cairo, Egypt December 17, 1971. Sun Ra playing several electronic keyboards in turn, the organ, Minimoog, and Rock-si-Chord. What I hear is some organ (Farfisa?) in the opening, then Sun Ra turns to a wild exchange between the Minimoog (monophonic) and Rock-Si-chord (polyphonic) during the second half of the track. Alto Saxophone, Congas, Larry Northington; Alto Saxophone, Flute, Danny Davis, Hakim Rahim; Alto Saxophone, Flute, Oboe, Marshall Allen; Baritone Saxophone, Pat Patrick; Baritone Saxophone, Flute, Danny Thompson; Bass Clarinet, Elo Omoe; Composed By, Arranged By, Piano, Organ, Minimoog, Rock-Si-Chord, Sun Ra; Engineer Recording Engineer, Tam Fiofori; Percussion, Lex Humphries, Tommy Hunter; Photography By, Sam Bankhead; Photography Liner Photo, Mike Evans; Producer, Infinity Inc.

The great jazz funk flutist Bobbi Humphrey released a series of albums around this time that often-featured fantastic synthesizer players. Here you can pick out the Minimoog by Don Preston and the ARP (Odyssey?) by Larry Mizell. The synths included here are in contrast to the more experimental sounds that Herbie Hancock was issuing at the same time. Flute, Vocals, Bobbi Humphrey; ARP Synthesizer, Larry Mizell; Minimoog, Don Preston; Bass, Chuck Rainey; Congas, King Errison; Drums, Harvey Mason; Electric Piano Fender Rhodes, Fonce Mizell, Larry Mizell; Guitar, John Rowin, Melvin "Wah Wah" Ragin; Percussion, Roger Sainte, Stephany Spruill; Piano, Jerry Peters; Produced by Chuck Davis, Larry Mizell; Trumpet, Fonce Mizell. 6:39 2:06:19 20.Ramsey Lewis, “Jungle Strut” from Sun Goddess (1974 Columbia).

RMI Harmonic Synthesizer, Clark Ferguson. 2:43 2:20:24 23. Fernando Gelbard, “Sombrero De Flores” from Didi (1974 Discos Redonde).

Producer, Engineer, Piano, Electric Piano, Moog, Oberheim, and the Freeman string synthesizer; digital sequencer, Drums, Percussion, Composed by, Jan Hammer. 4:29 2:32:26 26.Larry Young's Fuel, “Moonwalk” from Spaceball (1976 Arista).

Mandy Miller is a novelist and attorney. She is the author of the Grace Locke Mystery series. She holds a J.D. from Northwestern University, as well as a PhD in Psychology. Her legal specialty is criminal defense, in particular the representation of the mentally ill and criminally insane. The first decade of her legal career, however, was spent on Wall Street as a mergers and acquisitions attorney where her clientele was better dressed, but often equally devious. In her spare time she indulges her reading vice and participates in ultramarathons, a sport much like novel writing in that it requires dedication and perseverance, not to mention a dash of madness.

RJ CLARK began his career as a child actor. His was the face of the national US Army “Stay in School” ad campaign. RJ also appeared regularly on daytime television and worked on numerous film and commercial projects before inevitably returning to his first true love, writing. As a screenwriter, RJ's screenplays won first prize or placed in the top 5 of nearly every major national—and international—competition worth mentioning. His novella, Two for One launched the indie literary magazine “The Instagatorzine,” broken into two parts across the magazine's first two issues. A native New Yorker, RJ attended NYU, holds a BFA and an MFA. He has lived in all five boroughs, but now calls historic Asbury Park, NJ home with his wife and dog, an Aussillon named Venus. While RJ no longer works in the theatre as an actor, he provides accessibility services for deaf patrons at live performances throughout the country. He is passionate about theatre being for all, and enjoys being able to introduce new shows to deaf or hard of hearing patrons. When not writing, you're most likely to find RJ either playing guitar along the Jersey Shore, taking photographs of cool dogs and musicians around Asbury Park, voraciously reading new books, working on new music, or traveling the world. A few of RJ's most favorite things include black coffee, chocolate, Stephen King, peanut butter, Pringle's, Truman Capote, tabletop games, the Universal Studios Monsters, horror movies, and David Tennant. STAYCATION is RJ's debut novel. -- Andre Gonzalez is the international bestselling author of the Wealth of Time Series. He writes time-travel, thriller, and horror books after spending many years reading and studying the works of Stephen King and Dean Koontz. Keeping readers up late and their hearts pumping a bit faster than normal is his ultimate goal when cracking open one of his books. Andre is the recipient of the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers 2021 Independent Writer of the Year award. When he's not writing, you can find Andre buried underneath a long to-do list and/or his three hyper children. He and his wife are raising their family in their hometown of Denver, CO. — The video version of this podcast is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOn8N7q6V10&t=873s More: rjclarkwriter.com M4L Publishing: https://m4lpublishing.com/ Mark Stevens' website: https://www.writermarkstevens.com/ Intro Music by Moby Gratis: https://mobygratis.com/ Outro Music by Dan-o-Songs: https://danosongs.com/
