She married young and had 3 daughters by the time she was 24. She considers herself a lifelong learner—and cites her most useful degree being an Honorary Doctorate in “RLE” (Real Life Experience). Jennifer uses every day language to bring to life what she has learned from her three years of study at Metropolitan State College, therapy, faith and so much more.Jennifer experienced abuse on many levels as a child. In spite of those hardships, she graduated a year early from high school with a 4.0 GPA. At the age of 29, she lost her husband and one of her twin daughters in a car crash caused by a drunk driver. Her two surviving daughters, McKayla and Amber, were left permanently injured. Both have graduated from high school, and her oldest daughter, McKayla, graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a Criminal Justice Degree.Within a year of this life-altering crash, Jennifer was diagnosed not only with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) but also a brain malformation. Instead of being a victim of these circumstances, with God's help, Jennifer focused on being a survivor and forged all of these events into something significant and positive.Host: Jeff Johnstonwww.livingundeterred.org

Neste Splendor Entrevista vamos falar sobre “OS DESTINOS DA AVIAÇÃO BRASILEIRA”. Confira!Estima-se que a aviação gera 6,4 milhões de empregos no Brasil. Essas vagas se distribuem pelos diversos setores envolvidos, estimulados ou viabilizados pelo transporte aéreo. O transporte aéreo apresenta certo grau de concentração de mercado. Poucos grupos têm condições suficientes para obter rentabilidade operando no setor, que tem ativos (especialmente aeronaves) caros e procedimentos de alta complexidade. Assim, é preciso comparar o mercado brasileiro a outros no mundo para avaliar o grau de concentração.  O setor aéreo brasileiro tem diminuído as perdas nos principais indicadores após forte retração provocada pela pandemia do novo coronavírus. No mês de outubro, embora tenha ocorrido redução de 44% na demanda e 41% na oferta em comparação com mesmo período de 2019, os dados apontam aumento no número de voos e de passageiros transportados em relação aos meses anteriores. Por outro lado, a recuperação do mercado internacional tem acontecido de forma mais lenta.  Para falar sobre essas e outras questões vamos conversar com o Diretor da ANAC, ROGÉRIO BENEVIDES, Engenheiro Aeronáutico pelo ITA, Especialista em Engenharia de Produção pela UFF e em Economia do Transporte Aéreo pelo Metropolitan State College. Dentre suas experiências profissionais na área da aviação, destaca-se seus mais de 30 anos no extinto Departamento de Aviação Civil (DAC) e ainda ocupou diversos cargos na Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil. Benevides também atuou no Departamento de Controle do Espaço Aéreo (DECEA), no Sindicato Nacional das Empresas Aeroviárias (SNEA) entre outros órgãos e cargos.Ouça a programação ao vivo em http://www.splendor.radio.br Ouça nossos Podcast em:  Splendor PLAYhttp://www.splendorplay.com.br YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/radiowebsplendor Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2ePvT6haJenLydBvV8DpRk Deezerhttps://www.deezer.com/show/2001752 Spreakerhttps://www.spreaker.com/show/radiosplendor O Splendor Entrevista vai ao ar todas as sextas-feiras às 20:30h na Rádio Web Splendor  #anac #dac #aviacao #aeroporto #transporteaereo #piloto

The Style Files: Conversations with Creatives

Serena Dugan is an artist and textile designer based in Sausalito, California. With an education in both Psychology and Fine Art, Serena has spent the past 20 years developing her imprint as a painter, product designer, and Chief Creative Officer of Serena & Lily, the home and lifestyle brand she launched in 2004. In 2016, Serena stepped away from Serena & Lily to get back to her roots as an artist. While painting, she explored shapes and rhythms in her compositions, which she could not help but envision in pattern form. This is the inspiration for her new line of textiles, wallpapers, paintings, and objects for Serena Dugan Studio. The new collection will debut in select showrooms and online at www.serenadugan.com in early 2020. Serena’s rallying belief is in the power of art to transform an environment into an experience. This can take the form of an energetic painting or a striking pattern that defines and enlivens a space. Her background in both mediums allows her to toggle between the two as she explores the themes of rhythm and form. With pattern, her focus is on creating harmony through repetition, shape and placement. With painting, she creates impact through layering and composition. Each art form sharpens the other by means of opposition — both equally representative of her aesthetic fingerprint. Serena received her BA in Psychology from Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC in 1994. She returned to school to pursue a BFA in 1997 and then expanded her design education by studying textile design and printmaking. Starting Art School in Denver, CO, at Metropolitan State College of Denver, she continued to Florence, Italy, to study painting at the Lorenzo de’Medici Art Institute of Florence. She studied textile design in Berkeley, CA at the Institute for Textile Print Design, and printmaking at the San Francisco Art Institute. Serena and her two children reside in Sausalito, CA, close to her sun-filled studio on the waterfront.

Lori is a fourth-generation journalist with an extensive background in business, natural health & healthcare, media and marketing. After working as a journalist and radio news anchor in Denver, she moved to Boston where she worked in philanthropy for awhile before moving over to investment banking and Wall Street. During her tenure in the banking and investment epicenters of the United States, where she served as an investor relations’ consultant for biotech and big pharma during the late ’80s and early ’90s, she witnessed first hand the corruption and conflict of interest inherent in the system. Inspired by her father, grandfather and great grandfather — all of whom are/were newspaper men, Lori launched The Mom Street Journal in 2009 after her concerns for a dear friend who was getting the swine flu shot during pregnancy went unanswered. Her drive to give moms information on ‘the business of being a natural mom in the modern world’ continues today, focusing on California where most medical and parental rights are gone. Lori has a B.A. in Journalism with a minor in broadcasting from Metropolitan State College in Denver, and an MBA in General Management from Boston University. She also has a diploma in Complementary Medicines from The Open University in Sri Lanka, and is a member of The American Ayurvedic Association.

Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career

As we start a new decade, I'd like to share my experiences of the last decade with you. As I've mentioned in episode 300, my employment with Jet Airways in India ended toward the end of 2009. The Indian pilots were fully up to speed, and it was time for us expat pilots to leave. So there I was, 64 years old, unemployed, and no pension. I filed to start drawing Social Security payments and started looking for work. As so many of our podcast guests have advised, networking is the key to finding employment. In my case, I recalled reading an update from a former United pilot in our retiree newsletter. He had mentioned that he had a job performing airline audits, and I contacted him to learn more. He put me in touch with the company he worked for, ARG/US Pros. Toward the end of 2009 I visited them for an interview, and they hired me. https://youtu.be/Xxk3IIdJ7MU In January 2010 I attended Auditor Training, and then went on my first assignment, to Japan, in February. One of the reasons the company sent me to Japan for a month - four audits - was because I mentioned in the interview that I spoke Japanese. Each audit was five days long, and our team of five auditors (plus myself) would look at every area of an airline's operations, and debrief the airline CEO at the end of each day. On the weekends between each audit our team would work on our post-audit report and prepare for the next audit. During the first audit I mostly was observing, although toward the end I performed a lot of the auditing duties. For the last audit, I was "cleared solo" and operated by myself. The audit process is called IOSA - IATA Operational Safety Audit - and during an audit the team uses an IATA (International Air Transport Association) checklist to look at everything an airline does, to determine if the airline conforms to the ISARPs (IATA Standards and Recommended Practices). There are over 1000 ISARPs the team examines. It's hard work. For the next two years, I performed about an audit each month, and eventually became an audit team leader. Since I had studied Russian some 40 years earlier, I led a team to Moscow for a few weeks. By the end of the visit I was able to conduct the debriefs in Russian. Leading the team entailed planning for each audit and writing a detailed audit report at the end of each audit. It was a great experience, but I wanted to get a bit closer to airplanes. In 2012, through networking with some of my former Jet Airways pilots, I heard that Boeing was looking for instructor pilots (IPs), and I applied. I went out to Seattle and interviewed, and was hired to be an IP on the new B787. I started as a contract employee on the anniversary of my United new-hire date, October 16th. I went through the 787 course as a student, took a check ride and received another type rating: B787. Then I went back through the course again as an instructor-trainee. Since the 787 was not yet flying, Boeing didn't have any real airline students, so three of us instructors would practice our teaching on each other. Two of us would play student while the other instructor would go over the planned lesson in the simulator, then we would each trade places. Finally the 787 was cleared to fly and we started getting real airline students. I really enjoyed being back in a cockpit environment, but wasn't crazy about always being away from home. One day, a Boeing check airman told me that Omni Air International was looking for B777 IPs, and they were using the United simulators in Denver for their training. I applied to Omni, had a telephone interview with the Chief Pilot and the Director of Training, and was hired on a contract basis. So now I had two contract jobs: Boeing and Omni. Omni was great with scheduling, giving me work assignments a month in advance. Boeing operated a bit differently. Typically, I would get a call saying I had a work assignment in two more days. Sometimes I could accept the assignment, but often it conflicted with my Omni commitment. After I turned down several assignments, Boeing advised me I was no longer a contract employee. So I was all-in on Omni. Unfortunately, the United Training Center in Denver was getting busy with internal training, so Omni had to look elsewhere for simulators. Eventually, all of the Omni training was conducted at the Delta Airlines training center in Atlanta or in the Boeing training facility in Miami. In 2016, again through networking, I heard that a training company in Tennessee, ARCS Aviation, was looking for a B777 Subject Matter Expert (SME) for some software development. I contacted the owner, and he drove up to Atlanta to meet me when I had finished an Omni simulator period. We hit it off, and I started doing consulting work for ARCS. After a few years, Omni decided to use only their line pilots as simulator instructors, so we parted ways, and I spent all of my time as an SME, first on the B777, then the B787, then the B747. It was a great job that I could do at home, on my computer. Finally, the software programs were complete, and my work for ARCS was over. In 2016 I started the Ready For Takeoff Podcast at the urging of an Omni pilot, Phil Pagoria, and my son Steve. Phil became one of my first guests on the podcast, and will make an appearance again soon! Steve walked me through everything I needed to do to produce a podcast, and has been my go-to person every time I need help. In 2018 I heard from a friend, Nick Hinch (former RFT guest) that Wheels Up was looking for pilots. I hadn't flown in nine years, but had stayed current in simulators, and figured this would be my last chance to be employed as a pilot again. But, of course, my medical certificate had expired. So I made an appointment with my Aviation Medical Examiner (AME). And I did something really stupid. For over 30 years, I had gone to the same AME, and every time on my application I had listed all of my visits to healthcare professionals since my previous visit (6 months earlier). And for some reason, I don't know why, I simply did the same thing. I listed all of my doctor visits since seeing him last. This is important: the form only asks for doctor visits in the last three years. But I foolishly listed all of them, and some from five, six or seven years earlier, were no one else's business, certainly not the FAA's. My AME said he needed to send my information to the FAA, and the FAA Medical Department wanted some tests. Expensive tests, over $10,000 worth of tests. I saw the Wheels Up job disappearing, and asked the FAA if I could change my application from First Class medical to Third Class. No can do. Once you apply for a medical certificate, it must be either Approved or Denied. After many exchanges of letters, mine was Denied. After a Denial, an airman cannot get ANY medical certificate, including the new BasicMed. So, the only solo flying I can legally perform is in a glider, which does not require a medical certificate. One of my first jobs when I had retired from United in 2005 had been teaching at Metropolitan State College of Denver, in their Aviation Department. In 2018 I visited them, now renamed Metropolitan State University of Denver, to see if they needed a classroom instructor. My timing was perfect, and I started teaching Fundamentals of Aviation and Basic Instrument Flight, two days each week, as a contract employee. Eventually, I became a full-time employee with the title of Lecturer, and I still teach courses two days every week. In 2018 I was accepted to the Writers Guild of America Veterans Writing Project, and started working on a screenplay adaptation of my Hamfist novel series. (That's my son Steve sitting next to me in the first picture that comes up on that website). In the next RFT episode I'll visit the year 2019. Have a GREAT 2020!

Dunlap returns to the Westchester campus with more than 30 years of college and NBA coaching experience. Coach Dunlap was the head coach of the Charlotte Bobcats for the 2012-2013 season, becoming the first coach in NBA history to win three-times as many games as the year before. During that season, the Bobcats set franchise records for the most fast break points and the least number of turnovers per game. Before arriving in Charlotte, Coach spent six years as an assistant coach in the professional and college ranks. Prior to his work as an assistant, he spent nine seasons as the head coach at Metropolitan State College in Denver, leading his teams to a pair of Division II National Championships in 2000 and 2002 and earning NABC Division II Coach of the Year honors in both of those seasons. Coach Dunlap, whose teams went to the NCAA Tournament in each of his nine seasons, posted an overall record of 248-50 (.832), winning five Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference titles. In 2006, Coach Dunlap left Metro State to become an assistant coach with the Denver Nuggets under George Karl. In two seasons with the Nuggets, he helped the team to a 95-69 record that included a 50-win season in 2007-08 that was the team’s first in 23 years. Dunlap then spent the 2008-09 season as associate head coach at the University of Arizona under legendary coach Lute Olson and the 2009-10 season as associate head coach on Ernie Kent’s staff at the University of Oregon before joining Steve Lavin at St. John’s in 2010. During the 2011-12 season, he oversaw the day-to-day operations of the team and served as acting head coach in all but four games while Coach Lavin recovered from surgery to treat prostate cancer. Coach Dunlap’s previous head coaching experience also includes three seasons with the Adelaide 36ers in Australia’s National Basketball League and five seasons at California Lutheran University. From 1994-97, he led the 36ers to a 59-33 record (.641) and three straight appearances in the NBL Final Four, including advancing to the Grand Final game in 1995. Before going to Australia, Dunlap was head coach at Division III California Lutheran from 1989-94, where his teams posted an 80-54 record (.597) and won three straight Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference titles from 1992-94, while also advancing to the Sweet 16 in 1992 and 1994. His college coaching experience also includes five seasons at his alma mater, Loyola Marymount University (1980-85), one season at the University of Iowa (1985-86) and three seasons at the University of Southern California (1986-89). http://www.coachdunlap.com/ https://lmulions.com/index.aspx?path=mbball mike Michael.Dunlap@lmu.edu --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/kevin-furtado/support
