At the age of 17, she shadowed a veterinarian to gain insight into the profession. However, witnessing a procedure on a small chihuahua left Angela emotionally shaken, as she found it difficult to handle the emotional aspects of veterinary care. Realizing that her sensitivities might better serve her in a different capacity, Angela chose to become a Physician Assistant. In this role, she channels her compassion and dedication to care by working with human patients, while still nurturing her love for dogs in her personal life.Connect Angela : Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/amarie2416/Organizations:Cypress Lucky Mutts - https://www.cypressluckymuttrescue.org/Special Pals - https://specialpals.org/Meet Ashleigh Bodell – your guide to the mystical and the magical on the Big Crystal Energy Podcast.By day, she's a dedicated orthopedic physician assistant, but by night, she dives deep into the metaphysical, exploring crystals, energy work, and the unseen forces that shape our world.

Året er 2000, og folk lever fortsatt i villfarelsen om at Devon Sawa er klodens kjekkeste mann. Kjekt for de som fortsatt hadde plakater av ham på veggen fra rollen hans som Casper the Friendly Ghost før puberteten, kjipt for oss som må se ham prøve seg som voksenskuespiller. Uansett, vi er altså i år 2000, rett før 11. september spente bein for all flymoro på film, En flokk high school-elever er på heisatur med franskklassen, og flyskrekkrammede Devon Sawa får bange anelser. Han slår seg fullstendig vrang og redder en underlig gjeng fra å dø i en særs dramatisk flyulykke. Naturligvis klikker universet fullstendig over at noen er freidige nok til å lure døden, og hendelsen blir starten på en filmserie full av eskalerende grusomme måter for døden å ta hevn på. Akkurat tidsnok til Halloween-helgen, og bare et snaut år før 25-årsjubileet til storfilmen, samles tre ivrige dødsentusiaster for å fortelle deg om alt som skjer gjennom hele greia. Du rekker nok å høre episoden før det kommer en ny film i serien neste år, sikkert stappfull av stadig gufnere måter å ta kvelden på. God fornøyelse!
It's up to you to make everything count. Some say everything happens for a reason. I think they do but that reason is to give you an opportunity for some thing great. I've been close to death a few times but one time in particular provides a great metaphor for accidents in business. The unexpected often requires a quick decision making. This episode is about using this great skill to ensure positive outcomes even when something you could not anticipate happens. Take note of how poise is a replicable thing and great leaders are able to model it for the next generation.

For too long, the question of what is “safe”—and who should take the blame when it isn't—has been muddled in the name of profits. Maybe we should avoid the word “accident” itself. I'll explore that question in this Episode 240: There Are No Accidents. Find the Show Notes at: https://attackadspodcast.blogspot.com/2024/03/episode-240-there-are-no-accidents.html

I'm joined by investigative journalist Jessie Singer to talk about their book There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster- Who Profits and Who Pays the Price.
Introducing the “I Am Human. This Is My Dog.” podcast – the show devoted to putting the individual back into the dog, as well as their human, while also examining difficult, and oftentimes controversial, animal welfare related topics that have been largely ignored, but are critical for real progress. In this second episode of the inaugural season, I turn my attention to breed specific legislation and the fight against Lakewood, Ohio's proposed pit bull ban so I can adopt Preston. This episode covers just a few months in 2008 (May-July), but gives the listener an idea of how unsettling these laws can be for those with family pets who are guilty until proven innocent in the eyes of public officials given the power to legislate solely on how a dog looks.

***Happy holidays! This is a rerelease of our interview with Jessie Singer, the author of There Are No Accidents, which originally came out in February 2022 as Episode 80. It's one of our favorite episodes from 2022. We'll be back with new episodes in January.*** What do we mean when we say something is an “accident”? When a motorist kills a pedestrian or cyclist it is often described in the press and the criminal justice system as a “car accident” — even when there is a clear cause such as a driver who was drunk, distracted or speeding. According to a new book by journalist Jessie Singer, events that most people describe as accidents are anything but. Singer argues that who lives and dies by accident in America is not random but utterly predictable. Using the word, she says, protects the powerful and leads to “the prevention of prevention.” You can find the full transcript of this episode here.

Jessie Singer's new book There Are No Accidents has made a big splash in the road safety community and far beyond, by interrogating a word that makes most people nod and move on: "accident." On this week's episode, Singer joins Alex, Kirsten and Ed to discuss how she became fascinated with the word, the realities she discovered behind its bland façade, and what it all means.
Watch the video version of this episode to get the full effectWe hear it all the time "a tragic accident occurred and x number of people were hurt or even, all too often killed", but was it really an accident or a result of a poorly designed and often complex, multivariable system.Jessie felt compelled to explore the word "accident" and its nuanced, complicated, and even insidious history because tragedy struck close to home with the killing of her best friend one day while he was riding in a supposedly-safe "protected" bike lane. Eventually, she wrote and recently published There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster - Who Profits and Who Pays the Price. Our human nature pulls us in the direction of blaming someone, anyone, most likely the person directly involved in the incident because surely they must pay. Perhaps. But what if the real responsibility lies further up the chain of events at the system level? That's precisely what I explore with Jessie in the conversation and I hope you find it interesting and perhaps even thought-provoking enough to prompt looking at things more systematically with an eye toward truly preventing future traumatic events from happening.Helpful Links (note that some may include affiliate links to help me support the channel):- Jessie's website- Book - There Are No Accidents- Fortune's best-of book listFour Easy Steps to Support My Efforts:1.

On today's episode, we sit down with local author and journalist Jessie Singer about her new book "There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster - Who Profits and Who Pays The Price". Jessie's groundbreaking book has received national attention. It explores how, and why, we seem to dismiss preventable deaths and injuries as "accidental", rather than confront the dangerous conditions that make these supposedly random events inevitable. We'll explore how corporations and profiteers fail to keep us safe, and we'll find some examples right here in Bay Ridge. From car dealerships and unsafe streets, to the opioid epidemic, to trips and falls, we'll see who profits from our unsafe environment. We'll also explore how we can demand change, nationally and at home in our own neighborhood... and change our own thinking about "accidents" along the way. Check out the book, which is available now, and listen in as we discover that in Bay Ridge, there are no accidents. ---- Check out the show notes for background info and bonus material Be sure to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for more news and analysis!

In a live Zoom recording of the Radio Hour, Jesse Singer, author of “There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster—Who Profits and Who Pays the Price” joins us to discuss why the record breaking “accidental” death toll in the United States is not really an accident but predictable and preventable. Plus, Ralph and Jesse answer live listener questions.
Why might an innocuous-sounding word we all use, result in a social injustice? The answer is: when that word is ‘accident'. It's something we hear all the time. “Sorry, it was just an accident” or “there's been a traffic accident'.But have you ever stopped to think about the impact the word has? I hadn't until I read the book by my guest journalist Jessie Singer. In ‘There Are No Accidents', she explains that the vast majority of mishaps are not random but predictable and preventable. What's more, the term “accident” also changes how we look at things that go wrong. Perhaps surprisingly, the word protects those in power and leaves the most vulnerable in harm's way, preventing investigations, pushing off debts, blaming the victims, diluting anger, and even sparking empathy for the perpetrators. During our discussion, Jessie explains how the death of a close friend prompted her to write the book and what she's learned from studying a wide range of accidents and why we need to think differently about accidents if we want to save lives and build a more just society.To find out more about Jessie's book There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster — Who Profits and Who Pays the Price visit https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/There-Are-No-Accidents/Jessie-Singer/9781982129668To find out more about Jessie, visit her website - http://jessiesinger.com/During our discussion, we talk about:The concepts of Jay Driving — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay-driver and the more common Jay Walking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JaywalkingHugh Dehaven, the pilot who pioneered crash injury research - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_DeHavenThe Grenfell Tower Fire — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grenfell_Tower_fireGrenfell was also covered in an episode of this show, in a two-part discussion with Gill Kernick.

Michael talks with Jessie Singer, author of "There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster—Who Profits and Who Pays the Price." Original air date 10 March 2022. The book was published on 15 February 2022.
We hear it all the time: “Sorry, it was just an accident.” And we've been deeply conditioned to just accept that explanation and move on. But, as Jessie Singer argues convincingly in There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster—Who Profits and Who Pays the Price (Simon and Schuster, 2022), there are no such things as accidents. The vast majority of mishaps are not random but predictable and preventable. Singer uncovers how the term “accident” protects those in power and leaves the most vulnerable in harm's way, preventing investigations, pushing off debts, blaming the victims, diluting anger, and even sparking empathy for the perpetrators. As the rate of accidental death skyrockets in America, the poor and people of color end up bearing the brunt of the violence and blame, while the powerful use the excuse of the “accident” to avoid consequences for their actions. Born of the death of her best friend, and those who insisted it was an accident, this book is a moving investigation of the sort of tragedies that are all too common, and all too commonly ignored. In this revelatory book, Singer tracks accidental death in America from turn-of-the-century factories and coal mines to today's urban highways, rural hospitals, and Superfund sites. Drawing connections between traffic accidents, accidental opioid overdoses, and accidental oil spills, Singer illustrates how what we call accidents are hardly random. Rather, who lives and dies by an accident in America is defined by money and power. She also presents a variety of actions we can take as individuals and as a society to stem the tide of “accidents”—saving lives and holding the guilty to account. Rachel Pagones is an acupuncturist, educator, and author. Before moving to the UK in 2021 she was chair of the doctoral program in acupuncture and Chinese medicine at Pacific College of Health and Science in San Diego. Learn more about your ad choices.

But, as Jessie Singer argues convincingly in There Are No Accidents: The Deadly Rise of Injury and Disaster—Who Profits and Who Pays the Price (Simon and Schuster, 2022), there are no such things as accidents. The vast majority of mishaps are not random but predictable and preventable. Singer uncovers how the term “accident” protects those in power and leaves the most vulnerable in harm's way, preventing investigations, pushing off debts, blaming the victims, diluting anger, and even sparking empathy for the perpetrators. As the rate of accidental death skyrockets in America, the poor and people of color end up bearing the brunt of the violence and blame, while the powerful use the excuse of the “accident” to avoid consequences for their actions. Born of the death of her best friend, and those who insisted it was an accident, this book is a moving investigation of the sort of tragedies that are all too common, and all too commonly ignored. In this revelatory book, Singer tracks accidental death in America from turn-of-the-century factories and coal mines to today's urban highways, rural hospitals, and Superfund sites. Drawing connections between traffic accidents, accidental opioid overdoses, and accidental oil spills, Singer illustrates how what we call accidents are hardly random. Rather, who lives and dies by an accident in America is defined by money and power. She also presents a variety of actions we can take as individuals and as a society to stem the tide of “accidents”—saving lives and holding the guilty to account. Rachel Pagones is an acupuncturist, educator, and author. Before moving to the UK in 2021 she was chair of the doctoral program in acupuncture and Chinese medicine at Pacific College of Health and Science in San Diego. Learn more about your ad choices.

What do we mean when we say something is an "accident"? When a motorist kills a pedestrian or cyclist it is often described in the press and the criminal justice system as a "car accident" — even when there is a clear cause such as a driver who was drunk, distracted or speeding. According to a new book by journalist Jessie Singer, events that most people describe as accidents are anything but. Singer argues that who lives and dies by accident in America is not random but utterly predictable. Using the word, she says, protects the powerful and leads to "the prevention of prevention." ***This episode is sponsored by Cleverhood rain gear.*** SHOW NOTES: Purchase There Are No Accidents at Bookshop.org Follow Jessie on Twitter "Stop Calling Them 'Accidents'" (New York Times) Don't call the deadly Bronx apartment fire an accident.

Part I of this podcast series has covered a basic understanding of our mind, with an emphasis on life's essential facts. We have now understood how to build self-belief, grow a healthier subconscious mind, develop the courage to face any situation and finally build solid self-confidence and self-esteem. Part II of this podcast series uses these foundational qualities to cultivate consistent habits. These habits are not difficult to follow but it takes a decent amount of willpower, determination, interest, discipline, and sincerity to develop a new habit. But this is entirely in our control. If you want to add a good habit to your life, you must focus on doing it daily. When you practice a habit regularly, it becomes a part of your everyday routine. The key to victory is maintaining consistency. This something that is beyond our control is what we call God or a higher force. By following certain spiritual practices, you can train your mind to be stronger and keep your humility under control. This will help you keep moving, irrespective of the outcome. When you bow, kneel and pray, you cleanse your mind and remove your ego. Typically, when you go to a temple, church, or mosque or pray at home, you should leave all your problems to the higher force and have only faith in you. We all need an anchor of faith to hold on to. Sometimes, when things go wrong, our confidence may get ruffled. We can restore confidence in ourselves only when we have the anchor of ‘faith'. Prayer is a feeling of surrender, wherein you assume that a higher power or force is standing above and beyond us. Prayer doesn't remove our challenges. It gives us the confidence to resolve our problems or difficulties. Prayer gives inner peace and self-confidence to a person so that they can solve their problems. Bibliography 1.

Hear about my brother Tony Bickmore's crazy life. He's sure had an adventurous life. He's been through the wringer. He married at the age of 19, had 4 children and he was married for 25 years. He was an angry alcoholic for about 20 years. He worked his tail off for several years to only find himself bankrupt at the age of 47. He retired from the fire department, got divorced, got a girlfriend, moved to Nicaragua, got held at knife point, soon after his girlfriend moved back to Utah. He then found another girlfriend and finally found a relaxing simple affordable way to live in Nicaragua. He's been sober now for 4 years. He has remarried to an amazing wife and they 2 kids and they are currently residing in Nicaragua, where he built himself a new home two years ago. In his free time he practices and plays Texas hold'em, surfs, works in his yard, reads a lot and watches lots of mindful videos on YouTube. He's come a long way and I am so proud of the wonderful human and the great example he has become. Thanks for you time bro. It was a wonderful interview. I love you!
