Gianluca Matarrese's gentle documentary Gen_ opens with overwhelming images of planets and stars. Or are they cells and aspects of human biology? As we lean in to the screen, curious about what we're seeing, the title, Gen, that's gen with an underscore, flits on screen, with a rotation appendage of possible word creations: genesis, genitals, genetics, generation, genealogy, gender, genes.Overlaying this is a chaos of noise and radio chatter from around the globe. European figures discuss trans rights, while American voices talk about reproductive rights. The message is clear: women's bodies are being controlled globally.Gianluca asks us to consider the weight of these words and these voices momentarily before he introduces us to Dr Bini, a kind, considerate, and ageing doctor near retirement. Dr Bini works in Milan's Niguarda public hospital tending to patients who are undergoing reproductive technology procedures or gender confirmation surgery.Over the next 100 or so minutes, Gianluca observes quietly and lets Dr Bini, his patients, and the transitory hospital he works in speak for themselves. Gen_ is a considerate and kind documentary which premiered at Sundance, and it stands as a beacon of recognition for the power of advocacy in medical fields for those who may not be able to stand up for themselves in the face of cruel and controlling legislation. Dr Bini talks through the possibility of care with his patients, noting for some that reproductive technology at a certain age might be risky or blocked, or that gender confirmation procedures might be restricted, and in doing so, he speaks through the avenues for care, treatment, and support.Gen_ feels like someone resting a hand on the shoulder of those in need. It is shot in such a patient and kind manner, with Gianluca sitting in silence in a doctors appointment with Dr Bini and his patients, quietly observing and letting the words and weight of the sound of empathy linger in the air. Notably, Giorgia Villa's editing creates a conversation between appointments, ensuring that the impact of one patients journey is felt on anothers, someone they may never have met.In the above interview, Gianluca talks about how the documentary came about, the notion of the documentary film as a form of advocacy, and more.Gen_ screened at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival.

The House Oversight Committee is often the setting for vigorous debates, and last Thursday's gathering was no exception. Notably, the focal point of the gathering was considering a resolution to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland accountable for his failure to abide by a congressional subpoena. This subpoena had instructed Garland to hand over a taped deposition of President Joe Biden. Overlaying this was the prior probe by ex-Special Counsel Robert Hur into Biden's alleged withholding of classified documents from his terms as senator and vice president, which ultimately ended with no prosecution due to perceived sympathy for Biden's advanced age and fragile memory. As the assembly unfolded, an unexpected clash occurred when Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) inquired about potential employment of Judge Juan Merchan's daughter by any of the committee's Democrat members. The Judge in question is currently presiding over the criminal trial of former President Donald Trump in New York. As it was reported earlier, there was a connection between Merchan's daughter and a committee member through a political advisory firm. Greene's inquiry spurred controversy with her counterparts, including Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), who questioned the relevance of this line of questioning. A volley of rapid exchanges followed and reached a tipping point when Greene added fuel to the fire by making a reference to Crockett's 'fake eyelashes.' The comment noticeably increased the ill-feeling in the room.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's podcast is with athletic performance coaches Hunter Eisenhower and Mike Sullivan. Hunter Eisenhower is the head of men's basketball performance at Arizona State University, previously spent time with the Sacramento Kings, and has worked in several NCAA S&C departments. Hunter played college basketball for four seasons at Seattle Pacific University. Mike Sullivan is a speed and performance coach at TCBoost Sports Performance in Chicago, IL. At TCBoost, Mike works with a wide variety of athletes, from youth to professional, and transitioned to the private sector after time in collegiate strength and conditioning. Most recently, Mike was at UC Davis and spent time at Illinois State, Notre Dame, and Texas. For a long time in sports performance, weight room strength has been considered the top priority and method of measuring strength and power outputs. At the same time, bodies in motion produce incredibly high forces in jumping, sprinting, and landing (eccentric and reactive forces). Understanding the nature of elasticity and reactivity, and how to measure and train it in greater detail is a must-know for anyone looking to improve athletic abilities. If you were to list three of my favorite sports and human performance topics, they would be: Play, Jumping, and Sprint Development. Today's show will be getting into these topics, primarily digging into key markers that highlight usable athletic force production, centering around altitude drops onto force plates. We'll also cover aspects of sprint training from a standpoint of observation and technique, relative to technology readouts, as well as overspeed methods. Finally, we'll get into Hunter and Mike's use of play, games, and “aliveness” in their warmups. This was a fun and practical episode from which a wide range of coaches and athletes can find new and valuable ideas.

When we're talking about the future of talent acquisition, Generative AI has been taking all of the limelight this year. However, arguably, although it grabs fewer headlines, the steady evolution of skills-based hiring is potentially even more disruptive to traditional recruiting norms. There is an enormous amount of data, science and research going into understanding the relationship between skills and job performance, and the results are smashing some of our longest-held assumptions about hiring. My guest this week is Andy Nelesen, Global Head of Talent Acquisition Solutions at SHL. SHL has done an enormous amount of work to establish the link between skills and performance, and their research has revealed 12 skills that universally predict success. There is also a significant discrepancy between the skills employers ask for in job ads and the skills the science shows they actually need, so this is a must-list interview for everyone who wants to hire more effectively. In the interview, we discuss: Why understanding skills is so important The adoption rate of skills-based hiring What does potential mean? Overlaying soft skills against performance The 12 skills that universally predict success Why a growth mindset is more important than resilience and adaptability Moving away from academic credentials and previous experience Are skills the key to diverse hiring? Talent mobility What does the future of work look like? Listen to this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Bret and Matt are joined by Brent Baude and Dan Walsh from Red Hat to talk about the latest with Podman, Quadlet, Podman Desktop and Podman machine, and how it all works with Kubernetes.-------------------------------------★ Enroll now for my next Live course, GitHub Actions + Argo CD, scheduled for July 10-21. Go to bret.courses/autodeploy to sign up. ★------------------------------------Dan Walsh, a Senior Distinguished Engineer at Red Hat, has been working with containers since the beginning. He's a contributor to Docker, Project Atomic, SELinux, and a lot more. He literally wrote the book on Podman. Brent Baude, is a Senior Principal Software Engineer at Red Hat and an architect and a primary maintainer of Podman, and contributes to many of its associated technologies like CRI-O, Buildah, and Skopeo. We go through a lot of tooling in this episode because Red Hat has taken a different stance than Docker in how it delivers its container tooling. You might say they take the approach of the Unix philosophy of every program does one thing well. Most of us know Docker and how it bundles many things related to containers into a single command line and daemon, yet some would prefer to isolate pieces of container management functionality into discreet, smaller programs - one for building images, one for running containers, one for communicating with registries, one for adding a GUI to your container manager, and one for managing the container VM. It's just sort of how I would break down the Podman ecosystem.And while that may seem like a lot of things, it's basically what Docker does for you in a single tool, yet the isolation of these tools is what can make them purpose-fit when you only need a fraction of the functionality of Docker. For example, one of Podman's core tenants is that it tells systemd to run your pods, which is the initialization process on most Linux distributions. In this way, your containers become more like standard system processes, rather than the Docker way of running all containers under the Docker Daemon process itself. Now many of us have heard of the other two original Red Hat container projects, Skopeo and Buildah, but there's now an increasing number of things the Podman ecosystem can do. So I'm grateful to Dan and Brent for coming on to break down the new parts of this toolkit and how we might use them.Live recording of the complete show from April 20, 2023 is on YouTube (Ep. #212).★Topics★Podman WebsitePodman Desktop WebsiteDan Walsh's book, Podman in ActionPodman Machine referenceQuadlet Blog PostPodman and Quadlet Blog PostSupport this show and get exclusive benefits on Patreon, YouTube, or bretfisher.com!★Join my Community★New live course on CI automation and gitops deploymentsBest coupons for my Docker and Kubernetes coursesChat with us and fellow students on our Discord Server DevOps FansGrab some merch at Bret's Loot BoxHomepage bretfisher.comCreators & Guests Bret Fisher - Host Cristi Cotovan - Editor Beth Fisher - Producer Matt Williams - Host Brent Baude - Guest Dan Walsh - Guest (00:00) - Intro (06:20) - Dan's history with containers (12:46) - The recommended way to get Podman (13:49) - Podman Machine (15:21) - How is Podman Machine installed (18:37) - How is Podman organised (21:16) - Podman Compose explained (27:15) - Podman Desktop (30:46) - Podman and Docker extensions (32:10) - Support for Kubernetes YAML (38:48) - Podman and systemd workloads (44:38) - How to get started with Podman (53:32) - Overlaying networks with Podman
Beginners at webcomics make mistakes, rookie mistakes. In fact people tend to make a lot of the same mistakes and we're going to chat about some of those in the Quackcast, but there are certainly a LOT more! A few common mistakes of first timers: - They have too many comic panels so it takes ages to draw and artwork and text become too small. - They plan way too much, sometimes for month or even years before starting the actual comic. Planning is good but not when it prevents you from actually starting. - Their art or designs are too complicated so that they can't sustain it for more than a few pages and they give up. - Their story is too complicated so that it's too hard to translate into a comic or it would take too long to draw. - The cover art doesn't match their artwork in the comic. Great way to turn off readers. - Too much expository text. - They make their comic too raunchy (when it's not a sexy comic) and limit their potential audience because it needs a higher rating and can't be displayed on most comic sites. - They think they'll get popular and famous right away. - They think people will just “find” their comic and rely too heavily on Google and the internal promotion system of their comic host. - Filler pages, especially generic ones are a huge turn off. If you MUST do them show a BTS thing like a rough version of your comic page. - Aggressive marketing. Don't be a one-eyed dick when promoting your work, it can have the opposite effect and make people avoid you. - Giving up when you don't get feedback or if you miss a few updates. Keep working at it, people will come eventually, especially if you're a bit social. And people will still come back after missed updates. Stick with it! Did you fall victim to any of those? Tell us some of your own rookie mistakes? :) This week Gunwallace has given us the theme to Mirage - light dances around the sparkling surface of a smoothly curved, shiny object.

Bringing Hospitality to Healthcare with Sarah Richardson, SVP, Chief Digital & Information Officer for Tivity Health and host Dr. Nick. Beyond all the systemic problems in healthcare, there is an aspect of the experience that is just not fully thought out. If you have not experienced healthcare in the first person, lucky you. But even then you may have seen healthcare through the eyes of a relative or friend at the periphery. Overlaying a poor user experience on top of declining health and bad news of health status just adds unnecessarily to the misery. Sarah was born in the hospitality industry and has brought that to healthcare at Tivity Health. There are big hills to climb and challenges to face in our world and especially in healthcare but as Sarah points out “Together anything is possible”. Take that moment to breathe, re-energize yourself and work to find those small or micro opportunities and wins for the individual, the department, and the system. Your better pill to swallow is to anchor on the common goals of bringing about positive change to align everyone in your organization. They are not just employees and workers. They are also mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters as well as friends, patients, and caregivers. Building a diverse team will help bring equitable accessible healthcare to everyone so we can all live our best life.

In this episode, Rob Da Costa dives into the importance of agencies understanding the buyer's journey. Rob breaks down the three stages of the buyer's journey - awareness, consideration, and decision - and explains the common mistakes agencies make with their marketing. In the first stage, awareness, Rob suggests creating short-form marketing content to get people to know more about your agency. In the second stage, consideration, education-based marketing is used to provide more detailed content to nurture leads. Finally, in the decision-making stage, the agency needs to gain the trust of the leads by proving that they can solve their pain points. Tune in for more insights on understanding the buyer's journey. Time Stamp 00:00 Introduction Rob introduces the topic of understanding the buyer's journey and the 3 key stages. 01:34 Importance of understanding the buyer's journey for agencies Rob stresses the importance of understanding the buyer's journey and how it impacts how agencies market themselves and communicate with potential clients. 03:18 The stages of the buyer's journey Rob breaks down the three stages of the buyer's journey: awareness, consideration, and decision. 04:51 Overlaying marketing communication across the three stages Rob discusses the mistake agencies often make by not overlaying their marketing communication across the three stages of know, like, and trust. 06:58 First stage: Awareness Rob explains the first stage of the buyer's journey, awareness, where short-form marketing content is created to get people to learn more about your agency and how you can help them. 09:21 Second stage: Consideration Rob dives into the second stage of the buyer's journey, consideration, where education-based marketing is used to provide more detailed content to nurture leads and build like. 12:41 Third stage: Decision Rob concludes the episode by discussing the third stage of the buyer's journey, decision-making, where the agency needs to gain the trust of the leads and prove that they can solve their pain points. Quotations “If you're not considering the buyer's journey when creating your agency's marketing content, you're likely missing out on potential leads and sales." Rob Da Costa "In the consideration stage, educate your leads with more detailed content that helps them recognise your agency as THE experts." Rob Da Costa "When it comes to the decision-making stage, gaining trust is key - focus on demonstrating that your agency has a proven track record of solving pain points for clients."

Structure, people. It's everything. Or it's a very simple thing. Like I said in the shownotes, for fiction, chronological 3rd or 1st person, present or past tense, following the protagonist through the story is the white-button-down and jeans of structure. Always appropriate, almost invisible. For non-fiction, it's harder—there is no fall-back basic, but a good trick is to pretend your book is either a chronological story or a how-to and start from there, then see what feels right and what feels wrong about it. Overlaying a very practical structure on a philosophical topic can make it more accessible to the reader—and easier to write.I threw in a bunch of book references to this one. Our stand-by, The Art of the Book Proposal from Eric Maisel. The Christie Affair, The Jane Austen Society and Bloomsbury Girls, Adult Assembly Required, The Arc, The Mutual Friend.Hope the blueprint is going well for you!

The accelerating transition to electric vehicles brings new urgency to discussions about how to replace fuel taxes with other broad-based, reliable sources of transportation revenue. From Wyoming to Delaware to California, more and more state legislatures are considering mileage fees, regions like the San Francisco Bay Area are considering expanded tolling, and New York City is within reach of adopting a congestion pricing proposal. Overlaying these discussions is a persistent call to consider the equity of any new charges on drivers. How will the charges impact low-income drivers? Does payment require access to banking tools that are not universally available? This event will explore proposals, including fee rates that vary by driver income, vehicle characteristics, or time and place, and equity-centered policies for responding to nonpayment of tolls or other fees.

Concrete overlays: Fantastic business opportunity, but watch out for these mistakes! This week's episode takes a look at concrete overlays in common residential applications. Overlaying an existing concrete structure like a front step or balcony is a great way to add value to a home. With such a huge variety of colors, textures, shapes and sizes, this type of hardscape project is one of the easiest facelifts a client can invest in! While construction of this pavement system is relatively easy, there are some all too common pitfalls that we forget to watch out for. This episode will break down a couple of those common mistakes and review the correct installation method to ensure success and happy customers. In this episode: Forensic analysis of a real-life problem on a project Easy cleaning of organic stains The correct steps to follow for an overlay application How this system represents a good revenue growth opportunity for any hardscape company, regardless of size or experience.

Overlaying bounded choice framework onto the biological need to survive within the human group, we can see that there is only the illusion of choice for people within cultic systems. At every crossroads, where my intuition was screaming for me to not take a prescribed path, my conditioning told me that total abandonment and death awaited down the other path.

Rod Maxwell is a bit of a Renaissance man, and the more we talked the more you can see how wearing many hats has informed his approach. Of late, Rod has become known for his fusion of digital techniques with practical outcomes. Looking at his Instagram, you can see trailblazing work with 3D printed moulds, scanning lifecasts and moulds and using that data to create things impossible to do any other way. Overlaying lifecasts done years apart to animate the changes in features displaying the effects of aging? Yes please! Rod created a short movie, The Wishing Well, in which he created and wore 26 makeups to play the various characters...all self applied. Check it out on Amazon Prime and see this behind the scenes video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYJmW3KYtTw He was on Syfy's Face Off season 3, which he took as an opportunity to take full advantage of the opportunity to make something with an amazing facility at his disposal. He created an app to help artists improve their colour theory skills, called Flesh Master. There is also a corresponding Skin Illustrator 'Rescue On Set' palette to then use those techniques to correct appliance colours to better match skin. Taking it all in, it's a great insight into the work that goes into acquiring the skills and experience which make an accomplished person. We think you'll get a kick out of this one.

Pluto VR is a general-purpose VR, telepresence application that hopes to provide the social presence glue for a standards-driven, multiple-application ecosystem using SteamVR on the PC. I had some new conceptual breakthroughs about the potential future of spatial computing after getting a demo of how Pluto VR is works with other applications like Metachromiumor Aardvark. Metachromium can run entire WebXR applications as an overlay on SteamVR applications, and Aardvark is an future-forward framewok that allows for the development of augmented reality 'gadgets' that run on top of virtual reality experiences.

This is Not Over. Everyone Just Stay Calm. There is so much conflicting information out there, it's hard to keep it all straight. Luke and Tim provide their personal expertise and opinions on the conflicting reports on the severity of the world's sickness. First, New York City Health Commissioner said there is no reason for young, healthy people to miss the city's upcoming parade DESPITE the fact that the US now leads the world in confirmed cases with NYC as the epicenter. Next, as many have already heard, PM Boris Johnson tested positive, and Former Labor Prime Minister Gordon Brown called for Global Government. Globalization much? Italy hasn't yet reached its peak, and Spain - where the country valued tourist money above a global health concern - reported 769 sickness deaths in a single day. Experts are saying the virus is likely to cause 81k deaths in the United States within the next four months. De Blasio says New York could stay closed until late May – Also suspects half of NYC's population will be infected at some point. The Surgeon General, who did lie about the need for masks, says the pandemic will extend beyond Labor Day. Dr Fauci continues cold war with Trump by casting doubt on Trump's goal of reopening the country by Easter. Trump claims CV is less infectious than he thought – Trump says people should prepare to go back to work within the next few days. Cell Phone Heat Map – researchers showed how people were traveling after the Florida Spring breakers left. Overlaying the maps of those spring breakers' travel with the maps of the virus spread shows correlation. New Orleans is likely to become the next outbreak epicenter due to Mardis Gras and spring breakers. Though New York City is hit most severely. We shouldn't be rushing to make major decisions. Everything is going to be okay, if we all just take a minute and use logic. What do you guys think? The Fed's Cure is Worse Than the Disease For more on the social and political aspects of what's happening with the illness right now, please see our other video: "This Is Not Over. Everyone Just Stay Calm". In this video, Luke and Tim dive straight into the day's economic news, and WOW are they animated today!!!! Topics Include: * The Fed's Balance Sheet Tops $5 Trillion * A plug for our good friend, John Sneisen – The Economic Truth, whose website is the most up-to-date of anyone we know about. * Zero Hedge – Fall of the Economy * There is No Gold! * Most Photographed Man on Wall Street Peter Tuchman has Virus * Prophylactic Shortage * Toilet paper and condoms are the currencies of the future. * and so much more! Please remember to stay calm in a crisis, and always treat each other well!

Kristina chats with Helene Becker, director of English Learner Education in the Norwalk, CN, Public Schools, who has taught ESL to all ages in Connecticut, New York, and Hawaii. When students come from a different country or culture or speak another language at home, it’s always a challenge to learn English, Becker notes. However, many K-12 students come from countries in Central America and have faced trauma and violence in their home countries and have enormous additional challenges. Other challenges: many of the students are over age and behind grade level; have to work; and are undocumented. Overlaying these challenges is the current national debate about immigrants in general. Many of the teachers involved in English language learning need additional training, according to Becker. Becker was part of the TESOL International Association writing team that wrote the TESOL Press best-seller The 6 Principles for Exemplary Teaching of English Learners. Among the principles: Know Your Learners, Create Conditions for Language Learning; Design High Quality Lessons; Adapt Lesson Delivery as Needed; Monitor and Assess Student Development; and Engage and Collaborate within a Community of Practice.

We then have the meet-up between Saturn and Neptune, again a major influence for our year, happening in this big week and this one opening doors between personal goals, career or authority figures and these artistic, romantic, spiritual, institutional, research, investigational, secretive, deceptive, addictive, or dreamy topics.

This combined with the narrow shape of the fiord causes a phenomenon known as deep water emergence where light is not allowed to penetrate past the fresh water. This creates a similar environment to the deep ocean at a much shallower depth, allowing visitors the chance to see deep sea species close up.Unlike an aquarium, the fish are free to come and go; it is the people who are contained. This provides a unique opportunity to observe real life situations deep below the surface of the fiord, quite different from the artificial environment of an aquarium.

Mach 24, 2009. When an organization is planning to develop or revise the automation of information processing, a typical first step is to analyze the underlying structure of its business. The 'entity/relationship' (or simply 'data') model is a good vehicle for doing this. What has been discovered over the years is that there are a number of structures that are universal and applicable to all kinds of organizations, both private and public. There are four fundamental categories: People and Organizations, Geography, Physical Resources and Activities and Events. Overlaying all of these are the topics of Accounting and Information Resources. This webcast will also relate this model to the Library of Congress Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR). Speaker Biography: David Hay is manager of data strategy and architecture with Capgemini Financial Services USA. In the information industry for longer than he would care to admit, for the last 20 years he has produced data models for companies in various industries, such as clinical pharmaceutical research, oil production and processing, and banking, as well as for various government agencies. He is the author of several books, including his most recent, Data Model Patterns: A Metadata Map. For more information, visit https://www.loc.gov/today/cyberlc/feature_wdesc.php?rec=4580
Kelly Coughlin interviews Donald Moore about generating more revenues from trust and wealth management clients and managing risk in that business line. Moore is a former OCC examiner. Donald Moore Jr., CEO of Bearmoor, LLC has over 20 years of experience in the asset management and fiduciary industry. He has served in senior fiduciary positions with various US Treasury agencies, as well as a leading financial services consulting firm. He began his career as a Trust Examiner with Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. He has examined over 50 trust divisions, including the lead position at two of the nation’s largest trust institutions. He has assisted in the development of national policy and guidelines at both the Comptroller’s Office and the Office of Thrift Supervision. Kelly Coughlin is CEO of BankBosun, a management consulting firm helping bank C-Level Officers navigate risk and discover reward. He is the host of the syndicated audio podcast, BankBosun.com. Kelly brings over 25 years of experience with companies like PWC, Lloyds Bank, and Merrill Lynch. On the podcast Kelly interviews key executives in the banking ecosystem to provide bank C-Suite officers, risk management, technology, and investment ideas and solutions to help them navigate risks and discover rewards. And now your host, Kelly Coughlin. Kelly: I’ve got Don Moore CEO of Bearmoor LLC. Don, how are you doing? Don: I’m doing well, thank you Kelly, I appreciate the opportunity to chat with you today. Kelly: Don, you’re in Boulder? Don: I’m not quite in the Republic of Boulder, I’m a little bit closer to the Breckenridge area up in the hills of Colorado. Kelly: You’re happy because the Broncos just won the Super Bowl, I take it. Don: I’m slightly indifferent to the Broncos winning, although they had their ginormous parade yesterday down in Denver. Everyone’s excited that Peyton got his Super Bowl, but again, I think it was the defense that won it for him. Yeah, we’re happy here in the state. No one’s going off the edge yet. Kelly: Let’s get right into it. Tell me what Bearmoor does. What’s your value proposition? Don: Basically, it’s the optimization of risk-adjusted revenue from an organization’s existing fiduciary activities portfolio. It’s basically their personal trusts, their investment management accounts, their retirement accounts, foundation endowments and custody. All those off-balance-sheet activities within the fiduciary world. Again, the optimization of their risk-adjusted revenue from their existing portfolio. Kelly: First of all, it’s banks that are in the wealth management business. They have trusts, they have wealth management capabilities, correct? Don: Correct, a lot of organizations that are clients, their definition of wealth management differs, but it does include trusts, insurance, and private banking. Kelly: You help those kind of banks do what? Don: Optimize top-line revenue. What we mean by that is, I like to use a quote from Bono, the lead singer for U2, he was up at his concert and doing one of his social announcements where he was clapping his hands and he said, “Do you know, every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies?” And someone screamed out, “Stop clapping your hands.” We don’t focus in on expense because for the past 10 years in the industry, the industry’s been focused on nothing but expenses. The expenses have outpaced revenue growth 6 out of the last 10 years. Their focus on expenses I don’t think, has been all that fantastic. We like to say, “Well you’re already focused on expense reduction, we want to help you grow top-line revenues.” Our value proposition leads to an increase to revenue top-line. Kelly: Before we get into how you do that, let’s talk about some personal background. Don: All right, I’ll start out with education. I went to school, got a degree in finance and accounting, after I graduated from that I went to work for the United States Treasury Department as an examiner with the Office of the Comptroller. The currency, the OCC, I found an opportunity to begin examining in the fiduciary world and I became a fiduciary examiner. Through that, I went to Washington, DC. For those of you in the fiduciary world that have an understanding of Regulation 9, when I was in Washington, DC I helped draft and write that regulation that now national banks follow. For most states, it’s been adopted verbatim on that. I left there, and went over to another Treasury Department, the Office of Trust Supervision, which has now been rolled into the OCC and wrote their fiduciary training program and some of their examination procedures over there in a fellowship capacity of 18 months before leaving and going to the consulting world, and focused on consulting in the fiduciary world, and that brings us to where we are right now. I am married to my wife Toni, we live out here in Colorado, we have four children. Hobbies; I would say right now we’re doing lots of skiing, got some good snow out here in Colorado, so that’s one of my hobbies. Do a lot of running, outdoor activities is me. That’s who I am, I’m 52 years old and I feel it every day. Kelly: Don and I have known each other for probably 15 years, and we made a good connection when we found out you grew up in Minnesota, correct? St. Louis Park? Don: Yeah, sure, you betcha. Kelly: Let’s talk about the business. How do you help these banks make money? How do you help a wealth management bank make some money? I want to come up with let’s say five take-aways on how our listeners can make money through what company like yours offer. Don: Let’s start out with, the opportunities for increasing top-line revenue within your fiduciary activities exist. They are out there. I like to use the phrase, “You’re standing on a whale, fishing for minnows,” because there’s already opportunities to increase your top-line revenue within our organization. What we mean by that is we go through and do an analysis account by account basis and identify opportunities in three phases: one, gap analysis which is, “Hey, where are you missing it?” From the standpoint of what you think you’re getting. You may have some system errors, system inaccuracies that can help you identify opportunities, that’s one phase. Second one is competitive analysis. Where is it that you would like to beat your competition, and where is it that you actually are? We ask you what your business’s strategic plans are, we go out and do mystery shopping and competitive shopping for the organization to make sure that they understand where they are and where their competition is, and where they can go with their current level of pricing. The third analysis is a regulatory analysis. What’s changed in regulation that allows you to either understand the regulation and generate additional revenue, or do we have some risk there? Again, gap analysis, competitive analysis, regulatory analysis to help you identify those opportunities, because they do exist. I would say that’s the first area. Kelly: You exposed that just recently, gap analysis. You’re looking at pricing, and how competitive they might be in pricing in addition to more of a qualitative, these are the type of services they would offer? Don: Along the lines of both, Kelly, with regards to the types of services we want to break it down so we understand the types of services they offer. Then the pricing that they have on each of those services. When we talk about pricing, we all know that there are committees, and then there are boards, and we’re talking about the board-approved pricing for these services. Kelly: This is for wealth management services. These are the basis points. This is how much we charge for a $5,000,000 fiduciary trust account, correct? Don: Correct. Absolutely. Those are established by, I would say, the business line which then goes to the committee and the boards approve. These are the pricing and it would include not just basis points, but it would include minimum account fees, it would include fees for ancillary services such as real estate administration, closely held business administration. Maybe there’s a tax prep fee or a tax information letter fee. Maybe there’s a stand-alone fee for extraordinary type services. All the fees charged for the services provided within wealth management on the fee schedule. We then go through and see what accounts are actually on that schedule, and what accounts are not, what accounts have customization, what accounts have discounts. It doesn’t make sense for the level of service being provided. What’s critical with that, from a Bearmoor perspective, is what I would say would be the second take-away, which would be a risk understanding of your accounts. If you haven’t done a risk assessment on an account by account basis, it would be highly recommended that you do so. This would allow you to identify the level of risk for each account and type of account using system information. This isn’t something that’s subjective, it’s based upon system criteria that you’ve established and put risk weightings on it. Let’s say you have an account that is an irrevocable trust account with two co-trustees, five beneficiaries, some unique assets in there, and maybe it’s over $2,500,000. You would assign various risk criteria to each one of those factors. Maybe that has a higher risk than a revocable trust. Kelly: You’re not talking about portfolio risk, you’re talking about risk of an unhappy client (other than portfolio volatility). Don: Correct. What we’re seeing is a fair amount of, I hate to go back to the regulatory side, but a fair amount of regulators are saying, “Hey, we can risk rate loan accounts on the banking side, why can’t we individually risk rate these off-balance-sheet trust accounts from an administration standpoint, from a level of risk?” and then get some understanding about what may be some levels of capital might be for this entire portfolio. It’s not investment portfolio risk management, for lack of a better term it’s complexity rating the account. Kelly: Give us three things that you like to look at, that might go into the calculus of that. Don: I would say type of account. Kelly: The fiduciary, non-fiduciary. Don: Correct, you would have the fiduciary accounts would be those revvocable and irrevocable trusts, investment management accounts, foundation endowments, IRAs. Then the non-fiduciary lower risk would be a custody account, where you don’t have any investment management responsibilities. Another item would be the type of assets in there, so maybe less risk would be a mutual fund portfolio, that’s made up of a bunch of mutual funds to meet the account’s objective. A higher risk would be, “Hey, it’s a stand-alone investment in a large piece of commercial real estate.” High risk on that. The third thing would be type and/or number of beneficiaries. The larger the beneficiary pool, the more risk you may have because you have different competing objectives. Some of those might be income beneficiaries, others might be remainder beneficiaries, or growth beneficiaries. Kelly: The high-risk account would be one in which there’s a fiduciary relationship to your holding assets that are perhaps individual securities and not mutual funds and the third? Don: Number of beneficiaries. Kelly: Number of beneficiaries. Is that because the more people you have in the equation, the more likely it is you’re going to have somebody complaining about it? Don: More likely there’s going to be a complaint there, but more likely that there’s going to be conflicts of interest. What I mean by that conflicts of interest is those beneficiaries may all have different needs and you as the fiduciary that’s managing that account, have to take all those into consideration and make sure you treat them equitably and fairly based upon the information you have. Kelly: Tell us how you help the bank make more money. Don: From that account by account analysis on the gap analysis and identifying opportunities within their portfolio. Not just from a best practices from what we’ve seen over the past 15 years of doing this, but also what’s taking place within their lines of business and their strategy. Overlaying that on that analysis and saying, “Hey, here is the opportunity, and here’s how that opportunity impacts each account.” Kelly: This is for your part one you look at the market, you look at competitors, and you say, “Oh, your competition’s charging 200 basis points, you’re only charging 150. You could charge 180,” for example. Don: Correct. If you still want to be the low-cost provider and the lowest-cost provider is charging that 200, and you’re at 150, you could go all the way up to that 200 and charge 190, 180. Right. Kelly: Right. Don: Do that complete analysis. Or your minimum fee is stated to be this, we’ve done in a cost analysis of your portfolio and you’re not even covering your costs with your minimum fee. You’ve got to adjust your minimum fee. Kelly: Don’t you think most banks know their competitor? Let’s say pricing, and their level of service, because they either get clients poached frequently, or infrequently, and if they find out why, then it’s well, his is cheaper, or better service, whatever it was. Don’t you think they know that? Don: That’s what we thought. That’s what we were counting on, but when we started doing the mystery shopping, because we asked our clients who are their competitors, who do they want us to mystery shop. Then we also provide them all the other information that we have. That, other than the actual opportunities, was one of the most highly prized pieces of information that we provided to our clients was, “Oh, look at all this competitor information.” My business partner and I looked at each other and said, “Wow, we didn’t realize how valuable this was. We thought you guys knew it, we’re showing it to you to let you know that we know it.” You would think they would know it, but a lot of times that isn’t the case based upon the information that we were able to gather and the reaction that we get from those. I think they have an understanding of it, but once they actually see the documentation and support for that that we’re able to gather, that brings it full circle. Kelly: I’m intrigued by, and I always have been intrigued by you being a former regulator with all due respect to your former profession, the dark side I suppose, or actually I think when you go into industry, they say you’ve gone to the dark side, I believe. However you look at it, how a former regulator can help on the revenue side is always been amusing to me. I know you do have a pretty good reputation out there, so kudos. You’ve been doing it quite a while, I believe. Don: Yeah, I appreciate those comments. Perhaps my capitalistic views weren’t always the right forum to be a regulator, so maybe I’ve always had to get back to this side. Maybe I was on the dark side and came back to the light. Kelly: Any more takeaways? Don: I would say re-acceptance, and what I mean by re-acceptance is, based upon the information that you have today on your existing accounts, the level of administration, the level of responsibility, the potential problems associated with the risk audit compliance items, the regulatory issues, and the revenue that you’re making on it, would you re-accept the accounts in your portfolio today? If the answer to that is no or maybe, you need to actually go through and do this risk assessment and the revenue opportunity assessment to make sure be able to answer that question yes or these are accounts we no longer need to be a part of. Kelly: It isn’t just no longer be part of, it may be no I wouldn’t accept it under these terms. These terms being pricing, but would you accept it at 50 basis points? No. Would you accept at 150? Yes. Isn’t that as much of a relevant question as acceptance or non-acceptance, it’s how should we price this thing? Don: Proper pricing is critical. We have top 10 risk piece that we do and one of the top 10 risks is appropriate pricing, so you’re absolutely right. “Hey, I wouldn’t re-accept it because of the assets.” That’s one thing. I wouldn’t re-accept this because of the price and the assets. Could we price it accordingly where you would accept it? Absolutely. That’s part of the analysis we do. Kelly: Why don’t you post on our website the top 10 risk pieces in a blog post? Don: Absolutely, I can do that. Kelly: That’d be nice to accompany this. That’s it for now, give us your favorite quote. Don: It’s Milton Friedman the great economist. “The question is, do corporate executives, provided that they stay within the law, have responsibilities in their business activities, other than to make as much money for their shareholders as possible?” My answer to that is, no they do not. Basically, everyone should stay focused on generating revenue for the shareholders for where they have their fiduciary duty. Kelly: What’s the stupidest thing you’ve said or done in your business career? Don: This is classic me, and this took a long time to live down. This was years ago. I basically said, I used another quote when I was giving a presentation because someone asked a question with regards to revenue enhancement and I said in front of this entire group, “Life’s tough, but it’s tougher if you’re stupid.” Yep. Kelly: Good one. Don: I was much younger. Kelly: Don, I enjoyed talking to you, thanks so much for your time.

People will exit these centres in mass numbers as a flood of MIRACLES begins to happen in the Bible believing pentecostal-charismatic centres. 2. Overlaying this period of miracle happenings will be a revelation to the members of many churches and synagogues that their rabbis and pastors do NOT believe that the Holy Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God in entirety. For these two reasons, many religious leaders (even conservative evangelicals) will become jealous, band together, and testify in court against the leaders of the REAL Bible believing groups; many will originate the charges against them. After a while, help will come to the leaders of the REAL Bible believing churches and synagogues. God will raise up deliverers who will help the leaders in these set times. Today we stand at the threshold of the biggest triangular deception the post modern followers of Yeshua have encountered. This deception will of itself create a schism in the perceived Body of Messiah. The Good News is that the schism which results will usher the Real Body of the LORD into the final end time harvest and positioning to help prepare Israel to receive her Messiah. There are three main areas of deception that will separate the end time power churches and synagogues from the WEAKENED body of believers. These areas of deception are: Evolutionary creationism (creation in Genesis 1 and 2 is not literal as written). Textual Criticism (some core content of the Bible is only myths or allegories; prophecies supposedly written after the happenings). Relativism and Authenticism (congregations claim to be relevant with authentic Christians). Two of these areas of deception have been around for a long time: 1. Evolutionary creationism; and, 2. Textual criticism. The third area of deception (Relativism and Authenticism) is more recent upon the scene, and has many evangelical rabbis and pastors seduced. What many – if not most – members of synagogues and churches do NOT realize is that their leaders (rabbis and pastors) do NOT believe that the Bible (Torah, Tanakh, Brit Chadashah) is “the inspired, inerrant, Word of God in entirety.” These leaders every week are deceiving their people. The people think their rabbis and pastors believe the Bible, when in reality they only believe “parts” of it. They do NOT believe that God created the Heavens and Earth in six literal 24 hour days. And they do not believe a lot of other things. I am NOT talking about liberal scholars or rabbis or pastors. I am talking about those in positions of leadership in conservative and orthodox congregations. What do you think would happen if they honestly told their congregations what they do NOT believe? Many synagogues and churches have sent their young men and women to seminary and yeshiva gedola or kollel only to have their faith slaughtered by rabbis and professors of doubt. Schools that once were conservative institutions, like Azusa Pacific (now University), are now turning out pastors and leaders who do NOT believe in the inerrancy of scripture, who do NOT believe in the Genesis account of creation (a literal 24 hour day – six day creation), who do NOT believe in the unity of the Book of Isaiah, and who basically have NO positioning from which to authoritatively minister in the Name of the LORD. At best they are social evolutionists, and at worst they are miracle neutralizers. Current statistics show the following: 63 percent of the new church plants in the USA are pentecostal-charismatic. 88 percent of the new church plants outside the USA are pentecostal-charismatic. Note: The term “pentecostal-charismatic” can include people from any religious background: denominational, non-denominational, Jewish, Protestant, Catholic, house, home or cell groups. It encompasses and describes those who have experienced and follow Messiah Yeshua as a result of the New Birth of the Spirit. To the Christian theologian (even some pastors), the reason for the rapid growth of the pentecostal-charismatic church is: “The are more active; they are a doing people.” However, what these commentators do NOT see is that the TRUE, VITAL pentecostal churches grow because the pastors (and people) believe the Holy Bible that is being preached and taught. And, the result is: God honors the belief in His Word, and regular, consistent miracles happen (Biblical signs and wonders). Let me underpin my observations – and, prophecy – by this statement: People are never jealous of a person unless the other person has more or better than they do. The pentecostal-charismatic churches definitely have more and better. The Gifts of the Spirit operate, miracles happen, and people generally share their faith more, with attendant signs (miracles) happening. Jealousy will be why, in coming months and years, rabbis and pastors (I am NOT talking about liberals, I am talking about those who claim to be conservative, orthodox, believers) will testify against (and, even have charges brought against) Bible believing rabbis and ministers. All these jealous leaders have to give their people is a sterile Jesus – a neutered Jesus. One who can save but probably can NOT heal or work a MIRACLE unless He just wants to, even though He promised to do so in His Word to us. After all, His Word is NOT His Word as far as they believe (and have been taught). Sadly enough, many of these leaders once believed in the Real Jesus, The Miracle Worker … and once believed that Holy Bible was true. (They will tell you it is true, but NOT literal.) As the flood of miracles … real miracles … begins to happen, people will start exiting churches to worship at the Bible believing pentecostal-charismatic churches. Also, overlaying this period of miracle happenings will be a revelation to the members of many churches and synagogues that their rabbis and pastors do NOT believe that the Holy Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God in entirety. The leaders who honor and teach the Bible account of Creation (literal six day / 24 hour day) will see increased miracles and healing flow to their people! During this time there will be a third wave which will also cause many people to migrate towards the pentecostal-charismatic synagogues and churches, AND home cell groups (house churches): Terrorism and overall depravity in government and society will increase to the level where many people will want holiness and not entertainment. They will want Bible preaching. They will want God in His glory. Watch and pray! We are living in exciting times. Baruch haba b'Shem Adonai. Your friend,Prince Handley P.S. - Ask your Rabbi or Pastor the following questions: 1. Do you believe the account of creation in Torah (Genesis Chapters 1 and 2) is a literal 24 hour day / six day creation? 2. Do you believe the Holy Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God in entirety? 3. Do you believe the Book of Isaiah is a unified text, and NOT from two different (Deutero-Isaiah) sources? (This is an excuse to relegate certain prophecies to a later date than the actual happenings and thereby classify them as false prophecies. Such as Isaiah 44:28 through 45:5.)
