Today we're exploring a concept that has deep roots in process safety and infrastructure management, but also has meaningful applications in electronics manufacturing: Damage Mechanism Reviews, or DMRs.My guest today is Dheeraj Narang, a corrosion and reliability engineering specialist, process safety activist, and digital innovation researcher with an impressive track record across the energy sector.Dheeraj has spent his career developing and implementing asset integrity programs for more than nine global energy companies across the U.S., India, and the Middle East.He's also a visionary advocate for using advanced technologies, industry best practices, and safety standards to uplift regions and workers where such systems are still under development. Whether it's through his service on global conference committees or his contributions to cutting-edge digital initiatives, Dheeraj is on a mission to blend technology, safety, and human rights into a unified vision of operational excellence.In this episode, we'll discuss:What Damage Mechanism Reviews are and why they matter.How DMRs tie into reliability programs like FMECA.How DMR thinking could benefit industries outside of oil and gas—including electronics manufacturingand how emerging technologies like AI and machine learning can amplify the impact of these reviews.Whether you're in energy, electronics, or any industry where reliability and safety are paramount, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Dheeraj's Contact Info:dnarang1@my.harrisburgu.eduReferences:Narang, D.

The final destination on Pearl Jam's spring 2025 tour will be Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a city that's no stranger to big time shows. Although they haven't been back there in 12 years, there was a time where the Steel City saw it's fair share of shows. From 1998-2006, there were five shows played, every one of them memorable in their own way. This episode covers their 2006 show from the Mellon Arena that kicked off the second leg of the North American tour that year with the band and the crowd so hot that the nearly melted the igloo. Sometimes you'll notice that certain Pearl Jam cities are known for having a song that's connected with them. For example, people usually connect Wash with Pittsburgh due to the umbrella moment in 2000. But at this show, another song developed a connection as they covered the Rolling Stones Waiting On A Friend for the first of a small handful of times. It was done to pay tribute to the Stones after opening for them at PNC Park the year prior, and it's a moment that the Yinzer crowd is proud of. Other great moments that we'll talk about include a monstrous Release to kick things off, an incredible version of Black with an It's OK tag, Stone's smokin' solo on RITFW and a plethora of Avocado songs that were kicked in high gear during this era. We'll also discuss how songs like Inside Job and Smile have continued to grow and become fan favorites throughout the years. We run down the entire setlist, but you'll want to stay tuned to stories from Javi's Nashville trip where he met not one, but two members of the band. You won't want to miss it!

Send us a textHi everybody and welcome to Attendance Bias. I am your host Brian Weinstein. We are fully on tour by now, having visited Manchester, New Hampshire and now on the 9-and-a-half-hour drive to the Pete–that is the Petersen Events Center, on the University of Pittsburgh campus–in Pittsburgh, PA. For whatever reason, the band decided to skip Star Lake in Burgettstown in favor of this modest-size collegiate arena that has played host to Phish twice in recent memory. But if you're on tour and decide to skip Pittsburgh because it's out of the way, you're missing out on a whole lot. Today's guest, Emily Bush, bleeds black and gold. With deep family roots in Pittsburgh, and an understanding of the city's amenities and history, she offers an insider's guide to what Phish fans should see, do, eat, drink, and expect for the first single-night stop of the tour.Although I don't think a visit to Pittsburgh is in the cards for me this summer, there were points during today's conversation, when I wanted to suggest to my wife that we move to the Steel City. After I got off the call with Emily I started to Google some of the apartment complexes and neighborhoods she mentions, and although I'm staying in New York for the foreseeable future, moving to Pittsburgh is not a 0% option, regardless of how Phish plays this summer.So let's get excited for the second stop of the tour: June 24, as Emily gives us the low down on The Petersen Events Center, and Pittsburgh as a whole in today's episode.

Combining technical skill with a strong aesthetic, flameworking pioneer Sally Prasch is known for her work that places other-worldly figures in glowing globes filled with rare gasses. She has also constructed portraits from broken shards of glass and is well known for her goblets made with coiled stems that allow them to bounce when handled. Her latest work incorporates cast bronze with glass. But perhaps Prasch's greatest fulfillment has come from teaching. She has taught flameworking workshops at UrbanGlass, Brooklyn; the famous Niijima Glass School, Japan; Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, WA; Penland School of Craft, Penland, NC; Pittsburgh Glass Center, Pittsburgh, PA; Grove Gas & Light Co, University of CA, San Diego, CA; Ingalena Klenell's Studio, Sweden, and many more. States Prasch: “Teaching has always been a part of my life. My parents were teachers, and both my brother and sister have also been teachers. Lloyd Moore, my first teacher, found it very important not to have any secrets but to share your knowledge with others – share your love of glass and making things. He taught thousands of people, and I continue in his tradition. Lloyd started me teaching at age 15. It was scary for me to teach adults, but made me practice things over and over again. We started people on soft glass tubing and then worked them up to borosilicate.”  Prasch began her career at age 13 with Moore working as a part-time apprentice at the University of Nebraska and then worked as a glassblowing instructor for the City of Lincoln Recreation Department. Later on, she took workshops from some of the best glassblowers of the time including William Bernstein, Ray Schultz, and Lino Tagliapietra. She attended the University of Kansas from 1977 to 1980 and received a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Art in Glass and Ceramics.  After college, Prasch started her glass art business that is still active today. She soon began to receive recognition for her artistic work and was selected for the Corning Museum of Glass' New Glass Review in 1993. The artist has been attending Glass Art Society (GAS) Conferences since 1978 and continues to participate by giving demonstrations and lec-moes, serving on the GAS Advisory Board and working with the organization's History Committee. In 1985, Prasch received her Certificate in Scientific Glass Technology from Salem Community College (SCC), Carneys Point, New Jersey. Soon afterwards, she obtained a position with AT&T doing large quartz work for the semiconductor industry. Continuing with her studies, Prasch earned her degree in Applied Science from SCC in 1986. Later that year she got a job as a scientific glassblower and glass instructor at the University of Massachusetts. She has worked as a scientific glassblower at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst (UMass Amherst), Syracuse University, and the University of Vermont, Burlington.  Currently, Prasch is the scientific glassblower and also teaches Scientific Glassblowing and the Properties of Glass to graduate students in Chemistry, Art and Physics at University of Massachusetts, Amherst. She is a member of the American Scientific Glassblowers Society (ASGS) and the director of the Northeast section. Her ASGS experience includes participating in seminars on such subjects like vacuum technology, quartz technology, and glass sealing. She has instructed a neon class with David Wilson, presented a paper on her work with the discovery of the gravitational wave, and co-chaired symposiums.  In 2025, Prasch will exhibit her work in Glass Lifeforms at the Pittsburgh Glass Center, opening February 7 and running through April 20. Her work will also be on view in Glasstastic at the Brattleboro Art Museum, Brattleboro, VT, March 22 through November 1. The artist will teach at the Pittsburgh Glass Center, Pittsburgh, PA, from July 28 – August 1. After curating the annual glass exhibit at Leverett Crafts and Arts in Leverett, MA for the month of November, Prasch will have a one-week fall residency with George Kennard at SCC, as well as a residency at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. In 2026, the Herter main gallery at UMass Amherst will host a solo exhibit of Prasch's work from January 29 through May 8. The opening will take place Friday, April 24, 2026, from 5 to 7 p.m. with an artist talk from 6 to 6:30 p.m. Her work will also be on display at the Science Library and at the Durfee Conservatory at UMass during the show.  As Prasch develops new work, including pieces for Laura Donefer's 2026 Glass Fashion Show to be held at GAS, she continues to teach and fabricate scientific glassware at UMass. She says: “I have taught on average 25 students a month for my entire career, only taking a break during the pandemic. Obviously, teaching is a part of me, and I gain so much. It is not about teaching, not about glass, not about notoriety, not about pay – it is about the energy between people.

The Cynimatics will be joining Bill on Episode 744 of the Pennsylvania Rock Show. Cynimatics is a band from Pittsburgh PA that combines the unlikely genres of 3rd wave ska and late 2000s neon era pop punk. Equal parts “Turn The Radio Off” by Reel Big Fish, and “Nothing Personal” by All Time Low if you will. The band performed regionally in Pennsylvania and the surrounding areas from 2013-2020 opening for some notable pop punk acts of the time such as Yellowcard, Carousel Kings, and Freshman 15 - as well as nationally touring bands on more of the ska side of things like Survay Says, The Supervillains, and Ballyhoo! Always trying to bridge the gap between the two mostly unrelated genres, the band made many connections in the scene and is still releasing music to this day. Their most recent album “Truancy, Anti-Poetry, and Other Stories” produced by Paul Menotiades (Punchline, The Composure) is out now and available on all streaming services

Join us for an inspiring conversation with singer-songwriter and guitarist Patti Spadaro. Patti shares her journey from the iconic clubs of Los Angeles to her current roots in Pennsylvania, discussing her music, teaching, and passion for empowerment. We delve into her latest single, "Glass Shatters," and explore how her soulful blend of rock, blues, and jam-band styles creates a space for connection and transformation.PATTI SPADARO brings a hopeful outlook to her introspective and heartfelt songwriting. Her guitar style has a soulful, fluid, jam-band feel. She loves to improvise, stretch out during live shows, and reach for musical magic. "Its all about the music and making a connection", says Patti, "bringing people together, letting loose, and being in the here and now".  Her band's live shows create a space where the music opens up into something huge... the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. The music cuts through the everyday and connects right to the core. While living in Los Angeles, Patti released 3 albums and played LA's iconic clubs. She toured up and down the west coast & throughout the southwestern US. Her roots called Patti back to PA to raise a family.  She has two daughters, released 2 more albums, and is continuing to record and perform. Patti also teaches college courses in yoga, meditation, and Mindfulness in Music.Glass Shatters is an inspiring tribute to the strength and resilience of women. It honors our historic first female Vice President, and our continuing quest to break glass ceilings everywhere.  Five women vocalists come together to sing, harmonize and complement each other, with soulful lead guitar work by Spadaro. “When I left PA to attend Musician's Institute in the early 1990's, I was one of 3 women guitar students, in a sea of 700 guys." says Patti. “It wasn't easy being in such a minority. Society has come a long way, but there is still plenty of progress to be made.”  Glass Shatters features Pittsburgh musicians and singers: Patti Spadaro (guitar/vocals), Anne Celedonia (keys/vocals), Cherylann Hawk, Jill Simmons & Alison McTavish (backing vocals), Eric Kurtzrock (drummer/recording engineer), and Ryan Black (bass).THE PATTI SPADARO BAND weave organic grooves with catchy original tunes and spur-of-the moment jamming.  "I like to combine improvisation with good solid song writing" says Patti. "I love to get people up and dancing. Music can open minds and inspire, it can bring people together, even make a difference in the world. It's also a whole lot of fun."  BRINGING ME BACK features drummers Eric Kurtzrock & Jim Donovan (Rusted Root), keyboardist Skip Sanders (The Clarks, Bill Deasy), and Jill Simmons singing harmony (Brown Eyed Women). The album features impressive musicianship and songs that reach deep. Songs about discovering what matters most. Standing up and living life from that place. A place of integrity and love; freedom, joy and passion. WOMEN ON TOP - add Jill Simmons, Cherylann Hawk, Alison McTavish and Andrea Pearl's lead vocals and beautiful harmonies to the mix.  See our Women On Top page for more.Bonnie Raitt, Natalie Merchant, Tedeschi/Trucks, The Grateful Dead, John Mayer, Phish, Little Feat, The Allman Brothers, Michael Franti, Sara Bareilles, Dave Matthews Band, Counting Crows and many more. Patti performs & records with many bands/musicians in the greater Pittsburgh PA area, including: Cherylann Hawk, Bill Toms & Hard Rain, Jill Simmons, Eric Kurtzrock, Pittsburgh Women of the Blues, theCAUSE, The Sun Champs, Lisa Mackney (Dark Star Orchestra), Jim Donovan (Rusted Root), Danny Gochnour & Joffo Simmons (The Houserockers), Alison McTavish (Love Crumbs), SamJAMwich, Steve "pUNK" Cunningham, Mike Tony, Mike "Foot" Hoernig & John “JB” Bigham, Joe Monroe (Ghosthounds), Ms. Freddye, T.
