The Mahabharata, one of Hindu mythology's oldest and most significant epics, is a complex story that cannot easily be summarized. Yet, Canada's Why Not Theatre condensed it into a three-part, five-hour theatrical production, which included a shared meal. This adaptation, created by Ravi Jain and Miriam Fernandes, was a highlight of this year's Perth Festival and featured poetry from Carole Satyamurti's 'Mahabharata: A Modern Retelling'. Tune in to this podcast with creative associate Sharada K. Ewsar.

The Hindu epic Mahabharata is the longest poem in the world, a tale where gods and mortals dance around each other in stories about creation, sex, death and destruction. But can it be told in under nine hours? That was the duration of  Peter Brooks' famous 1988 production of The Mahabharata at the Adelaide Festival. Miriam Fernandes and Ravi Jain, from Canada's Why Not Theatre, have wrestled the saga into a two-part, five-hour theatrical production which includes time for a shared meal. It's headlining Perth Festival.The hit Broadway musical Dear Evan Hansen has recently had to cancel its Canberra and Adalaide tours due to poor ticket sales, despite the show doing well in Melbourne and Sydney. Before that news broke, we recorded a song with the musical's Australian star Beau Woodbridge.Stephen Sondheim's Follies is the story of a once-famous company of American showgirls who have a reunion in the 1970s, 30 years after they last performed. The themes of age and regret require the performers to dig deep into vulnerability, says Antoinette Halloran, who stars as Sally in a new production by Victorian Opera. She's joined by director Stuart Maunder.

In this episode, co-host Marlis Schweitzer weaves together a series of interviews conducted by actor-playwright and podcast dramaturge Jeff Ho while on tour with members of Why Not Theatre's Prince Hamlet. First produced in 2017 as part of Why Not Theatre's 10th anniversary theatre, Prince Hamlet has been widely acclaimed for its dynamic, intersectional approach to Shakespeare, notably its bilingual blend of English and ASL and its centering of the narrative around a Deaf Horatio played by Dawn Jani Birley. The company remounted Prince Hamlet in 2019 at the Banff Centre and then Canadian Stage, as well as a number of other Canadian stops. In Fall 2022, the company reassembled for a major North American tour, including stops in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Salt Lake City, Utah, and Quebec City, among others. In what follows, you'll hear company members speak with Jeff about the rehearsal process, the importance of ASL to this distinctly bilingual production, and the kinds of reactions the production elicited in audiences. This episode features conversations with Dawn Jani Birley, Miriam Fernandes, Barbara Gordon, Jeff Ho, Dante Jemmott, Eli Pauley, and Sturla Alvsväg.

Developing Classical Thinkers

Play Episode Listen Later May 9, 2023 51:03


Since ancient times, classical educators regarded math as a subject to make one wise. Math demonstrates the order, beauty, and harmony in the world around us in a way language cannot always do, and classical education roots the teaching of math in the pursuit of truth, beauty, and goodness. In this episode, host Winston Brady speaks with Phillip Johnson, Professor of Engineering and Sciences at Thales College, and Ravi Jain, an Alcuin Fellow, author of "The Liberal Arts Tradition," and the graduate scholar in science and religion at Oriel College, Oxford University. In the episode, they discuss the history of mathematics education, as well as the ways in which mathematics helps students better understand truth and beauty, and thereby gain wisdom and virtue. We can use mathematics not only to solve problems but also to gain confidence that our world is not inherently random and chaotic—that there is an order to the world that we can see, test, and demonstrate through the power of mathematical reasoning.

Episode 194 hosts Dr Ravi Jain & Dr Sophie Shotter, two leading aesthetic doctors from the UK. Ravi is an extremely experienced injector & cosmetic surgeon based in Harpenden. With over 20 years of experience, Ravi consulted as a KOL for IBSA (the manufacturers of Profhilo) for several years. He was part of the early advisory board meetings and has a wealth of experience teaching Profhilo.  Sophie is a multi-award winning cosmetic doctor based in both Kent & Central London. She is a KOL for Allergan Aesthetics and is a global expert in using their new biostimulator product, HarmonyCa. Sophie has a particular interest in treating and optimising her patient skin and has treated thousands of patients with Profhilo since 2016.  In this episode we re-visit the new bio-remodelling treatment, Profhilo. (Listen to episode 179 for the basic science & background to Profhilo) Having only been launched in Australia in August 2022, it's undeniably been incredibly successful so far. But as with all new products there is a learning curve  for injectors. We examine the hype and ask two experienced injectors for their views on how to best to use it. We explore: - Ravi's previous experience as a Profhilo KOL and how the early uses of Profhilo differed to the now on label technique - The core challenge of explaining to patients what bio-remodelling actually is (and why this new filler isn't a 'filler') - How to manage patient expectations with skin quality products - What patients report happens to their skin after using Profhilo  - The difference skin boosters, bio-stimulators and bio-remodellers - Whether there is an 'ideal' Profhilo patient or not - What patients experience after 1-5 years of having Profhilo and whether they continue to return for treatments  - Suggested protocols for optimal results  - Tweaks to the on label BAP technique and how to better tailor treatments  - Whether cannula has a role when injecting Profhilo  - Whether difficult areas like the under eyes and peri-oral lines can be treated with Profhilo  Dr Jake & David want to thank their amazing IA Patrons who have helped support and contribute to the day to day running of the podcast Become an IA Patron too & get the following benefits: - Be acknowledged as an IA Patron in our podcast descriptions - Join our IA Patron whatsapp group (where we discuss tips, tricks, cases, business help and more) - Watch our IA webinars - Access our 'IA Business Lives' (Zooms sessions led by David Segal) - Access our 'IA: Injectables Lives' (Zoom sessions led by Dr Jake - starting in 2023) - Access to our growing IA Library for clinical papers and resources  Other links: Follow IA on Instagram Visit our website  Subscribe to IA on Apple Podcasts Subscribe to IA on Spotify Contact Dr Jake & David  More about Dr Jake Follow Dr Jake on Instagram  Follow David on Instagram Follow Ravi on Instagram Follow Sophie on Instagram Follow IBSA on Instagram

My book - The Convivial Homeschool: https://amzn.to/3rhFLBAWe homeschool to avoid the factory model and give our children an effective learning environment rather than an efficient one. Thus, our home life and our various ages working alongside one another is actually a perk, not a problem.So what do you need to classically homeschool multiple kids? You need good books, time to read and talk about them, thoughtful and engaged brain work, encounters with the real world, and discipleship into living well alongside others. All of these things the home and family come fully equipped to provide.We can't homeschool well without confidence and independence – freedom – of mind. Classical education should bring both confidence and freedom by its very nature. If it doesn't, it's probably not actually classical. In The Liberal Arts Tradition, Kevin Clark and Ravi Jain use this definition: “The ancients believed education was fundamentally about shaping loves….It is for this goal of passing along a culture that the curriculum existed.” Kevin Clark and Ravi Jain, The Liberal Arts TraditionWhile particular practices and day school techniques might not be feasible in the home, giving our kids an education with a classical goal, classical content, and for classical reasons is possible.

Kevin Clark (founder of the Ecclesial Schools Initiative) and Ravi Jain (calculus and physics teacher at the Geneva School) join Jeremy to discuss their book The Liberal Arts Tradition: A Philosophy of Christian Classical Education, as well as the classical education renewal movement in modern society. They begin by briefly discussing the history of 20th century education, to include the exportation of the American progressive education model across the world. They also discuss the reasons they began their book by discussing gymnastics, the critical role of culture to a school's success, and the deeper meaning behind musical education. Mathematics education is also examined thoroughly, to include the misguided notion that a math education must always be presented to students in terms of its practical application—that is, its value in study can lead students to much more meaningful questions about the connection of the physical world to the world of ideas, as well as a greater understanding of truth.

We’re thrilled to have Ravi Jain back on the show today. Obviously, Ravi is co-author of the fabulous book, The Liberal Arts Tradition, but here's a little more about him: Ravi Jain graduated from Davidson College, received an M.A. from Reformed Theological Seminary, and later earned a Graduate Certificate in Mathematics from the University of Central Florida. He began teaching Calculus and Physics at the Geneva School in 2003 where he has developed an integrated double period class called “The Scientific Revolution.” In this class the students read primary sources like Galileo and Newton in order to recapitulate the narrative of discovery while preserving the mathematical and scientific rigor expected of a college level treatment. He has given over 100 talks and workshops throughout the country and overseas on topics related to education, theology, mathematics, and science. He has two boys, Judah and Xavier, and is married to Kelley Anne, whom he met in Japan. In today’s episode, we get some of the background on the new edition of The Liberal Arts Tradition. After this, we dive deeply into the curriculum section from the new edition and talk about the fine arts, the servile arts, and the liberal arts. You’re going to love hearing Ravi’s thoughts! *** Don’t forget to download Your Scholé Sheet to think through and apply the ideas from this episode, then bring your thoughts into the Sistership and join the conversation happening there.

Theatre First Episode 243A Brimful of Asha (Malthouse Theatre, Melbourne Australia)In this ring it’s son versus mum. We don’t like his odds.Ravi’s parents rolled with the punches when they learned he wanted to be—gasp!—an entertainer.  But unmarried at 27?  This will not stand. Canadian actor, writer and director Ravi Jain’s A Brimful of Asha is the hilarious true story of a man whose Indian-born parents want only the best for him, whatever his thoughts on the matter. Derailing his work, arranging prospective brides and exposing their son to unending bouts of humiliation are all just part of their job description.  What’s worse: even Ravi’s spotlight isn’t safe from his mother Asha’s meddling. Aided by copious tea and samosas, mother and son take to the stage to spar over the supposed failure that is his life, delivering their respective takes on marriage and freedom, tradition and modernity. Stuffed full of humour and insight, this is the kind of battle only a deep love and affection can afford, and while Asha might not be the trained performer her son is, she’s a force of nature that will not be denied.For more information visit https://malthousetheatre.com.au/whats-on/a-brimful-of-asha Theatre First RSS feed:   https://feeds.megaphone.fm/ivetheatrereviews  Subscribe, rate and review Theatre First at all good podcatcher apps, including Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts (formerly iTunes), Stitcher, Pocket Casts, CastBox.FM, Podbean, ACast etc.If you're enjoying Theatre First podcast, please share and tell your friends.

Let's jump to our topic today, which is Spousal Sponsorship. Someone sponsoring their true love from abroad. IRCC wants it to appear so simple that anyone could do it. However, when things go wrong within the application process they go really wrong. And when things go really wrong, the best place to have addressed those wrongs is at the very beginning of the application process before you even file. But people don't realize all of the pit falls and it is for that reason that I wanted to Bring Ravi on to share some insight with our listeners to hopefully enlighten them a little more so that they can better prepare themselves to filing one of the most important immigration applications someone could file to IRCC.

Canadian immigration podcast – Season 1 Episode 16 Show Notes This episode of the Canadian immigration podcast is going to be a little different. It's going to be a little shorter the normal because instead of having to guests join me today I am going to share with you a little teaser as to what is coming up in the coming weeks and months. I'm going to start off with a little bit of an explanation as to where the podcast is going to be headed in the future. After really evaluating what I want to accomplish with the podcast, I received a little inspiration as too what I should really do with it. So I'm going to share with you some of those thoughts Then I'm going to give you a little sneak peek into the line up of guests that I have scheduled in the coming weeks. These are truly heavy hitters within the immigration bar in Canada and they are totally committed to bringing their A game. I have always felt that there was no purpose in having a podcast unless it was totally awesome. My goal has always been to create content that totally rocks. Content that you can not get from any other place. In the beginning stages of the podcast I put a lot of time and effort into creating valuable content that people can actually use and rely on and most importantly trust. With so much misinformation out there on the Internet many many people were having their lives ruined because they placed their trust in some website or immigration forum. Although a lot of my immigration practice is devoted to business immigration for large multinational companies, I still have a sizable portion of work that I do for individuals. It was witnessing first hand the destruction of peoples hopes and dreams of immigrating to Canada that caused me to want to do something different. People would come to my office when they had run out of options hoping that I could somehow save them. However, time after time if they'd only come to me a year earlier I could've helped them. But the majority of times there was nothing that I could do but tell them they would have to go home. I do not do free consultations, however I really struggled charging people that I could not help. Because of this and the many consultations that I had with individuals it was starting to impact on my practice and its Financial viability. I couldn't keep giving my time away for free yes I also couldn't stop trying to help people who had nowhere else to turn. I recognize my legal fees were more expensive than other representatives in my community and because of that people would only come to me when they had nowhere else to go. So I decided that the best way I could help people on a grand scale was to create a website where I wrote blogs and share tips and strategies and a podcast where I answered listeners questions and provided insight to help people protect themselves so they wouldn't make the same mistakes that I saw people making time and time again. My hope is that if I could give people proactive advice to help them prevent making bad decisions, this was the most important thing I could do. Because I couldn't spend all of my time providing this advice one-on-one, I decided that through social media, through blogging, and this podcast I would be able to get the message out to far more people. Until today, I have had the privilege of interacting with thousands of people on a scale I never imagined. It actually blows my mind to think about the influence I can have in the lives of people who really need help but can't afford it. I will never regret the decision to start this podcast. It cost me thousands of dollars to set up, but now that I understand how it works it will be a force for significant good in the future. If I cannot use my calling as a lawyer to make peoples lives better, without expecting to always receive money for those services, then my decision to go to law school was all worth it. So this brings me back to the Canadian immigration podcast. I have always intended it to be a podcast focused on Canadian law, Policy, and practice. In the beginning I try to produce all the content myself. Obviously, it became overwhelming with the day-to-day work of managing a law firm. However, after attending our last national immigration conference for the CBA. I realize that this platform, the Canadian immigration podcasts, did not have to be something that I hoarded selfishly. As I listened to the various immigration lawyers presenting at our national conference I realized that there was a source of unbelievable knowledge, and experience, that was really being untapped. All lawyers have a desire to help people. The problem we have is that it is often very difficult to share insight and help with more than one person at a time because we meet with clients one-on-one. Further, we have to be careful that we are not providing specific legal advice that is taken by an individual and misunderstood and used to their detriment. Because of this many lawyers are often afraid to wade into the world of content marketing. However, I have realized the power that exists with podcasting. And if I could invite these wonderful and amazing lawyers to come on the podcast and share their insight in a platform that can reach thousands or even Hundreds of thousands, of people at a time, then I have truly found my calling. Like I said, becoming a lawyer is an opportunity for me to give back to those less fortunate than I. This may sound a little cheesy; however, this is the thing that gives me the most satisfaction as a lawyer. So going forward, it is not going to be the Mark Holthe show. I am going to open up this platform to anyone with a message to share, story to tell, or insight and direction that can be given to help people as they navigate the complex world of Canadian immigration law, policy , and practice. In future episodes, I am going to bring on some of the most intelligent, most experienced, most seasoned, and just overall awesome immigration lawyers consultants and hopefully one day government officers to help demystify an area that has become insanely complicated. You were listening to the aid With nowhere else to turn, I'm going to give people somewhere to look for information. And when these experienced wonderful immigration practitioners choose to sacrifice their time to come on the podcast, I will then do everything in my power to let those listeners know exactly where they can find them. In this way I'm also giving back to everyone of those lawyers who comes to the podcast ready to really bring it. IN other words, I want to set the bar extremely high. When a guest has prepared themselves to share fantastic insight that you cannot get anywhere else and to really showcase their knowledge and understanding and to make it available in a way that would never otherwise be available. This is when everyone wins. This podcast isn't going to be about fancy instructional videos, or expensive websites, or slick design. This podcast is going to be all about content. And my goal is to create the best immigration content available and not only spoken word, but written content as well. I'm hoping to get guest bloggers to share articles and insight in written form as well. Ultimately the goal is to make this the central platform for immigration professionals to have something to share, Something to offer, that can really make a difference in the lives of the people who to the podcast. Okay, I think you get it. This podcast is going to be totally awesome. Alright so let's shift to the last part of this podcast. As I have told you, I have been lining up some of the best possible guests you could get to discussed Canadian immigration law policy and practice. Here is a sampling of what I have in store for you. Ravi Jain with Green and Spiegel in Toronto –Spousal Sponsorships Strategies for inland v. outland filing Bad faith marriages (the two tests) Spousal open work permits Appeal process Processing times Levels planning Rekha McNutt from Caron and Partners in Calgary – JR process – dealing with TRV refusals Mentioned previously that first recording didn't go very well. This will be our second attempt when the visa offices are just not nice – what do you do? Marina Sedai – Sedia Law Office - Express Entry We presented at our National Immigration Conference of the CBA on Express Entry Ran out of time – so much more to cover than what we were able to do in our presentation Lawyers don't want to listen to us, when they had John Acheson there He was very transparent – so transparent that he told us who is actually responding to our requests for reconsideration on EE refusals – the call centre agents I had to jump out of my chair to protect him from the invisible fruit that was being tossed at him by the other lawyers We are going to cover a lot of the areas that we didn't get a chance to cover in our presentation. One specific area is a number of questions about that our colleagues at sent us to address in our presentation. Because we ran out of time we didn't get a chance to answer all the questions. So hopefully we can address that in our presentation. Marina is a good friend and I am really excited about this one. Jeffrey Lowe – Lowe and Company in Vancouver – Owner Operator LMIAs One of the most entrepreneurial business minded immigration lawyers in the country 2014 at our National CBA Immigration conference, Jeffrey, myself and Janet Thomson Price presented on the unique topic of Money Matters – The Business of Immigration Law I have the chance to really get to know Jeffrey. We talked about the changing landscape of immigration and our lawyers had to adapt to the business opportunities that present themselves. He shared a book called Who Moved My cheese by Dr. Spencer Johnson – which really got my mind thinking about ways to innovate my law practice. To large extent I owe Jeffrey for giving me the inspiration for starting this podcast what better person to talk about some of the creative uses of the Owner Operator Advertising Exemption for LMIAs: What is an owner operator LMIA Some creative ways to use it to benefit or clients Some FAQs that are commonly asked Les Morley - Citizenship – I have never met another lawyer in the country that knows more about Passports. Wrote a paper for our CBA National Immigration section that blew my mind. It was amazing the time he put in to preparing this paper. I knew I had to get him on the Podcast, so that one is coming as well.

Canadian immigration podcast – Season 1 Episode 16 Show Notes This episode of the Canadian immigration podcast is going to be a little different.  It’s going to be a little shorter the normal because instead of having to guests join me today I am going to share with you a little teaser as to what is coming up in the coming weeks and months.  I’m going to start off with a little bit of an explanation as to where the podcast is going to be headed in the future. After really evaluating what I want to accomplish with the podcast, I received a little inspiration as too what I should really do with it. So I’m going to share with you some of those thoughts Then I’m going to give you a little sneak peek into the  line up of guests that I have scheduled in the coming weeks.  These are truly heavy hitters within the immigration bar in Canada and they are totally committed to bringing their A game.  I have always felt that there was no purpose in having a podcast unless it was totally awesome. My goal has always been to create content that totally rocks.  Content that you can not get from any other place. In the beginning stages of the podcast I put a lot of time and effort into creating valuable content that people can actually use and rely on and most importantly trust. With so much misinformation out there on the Internet many many people were having their lives ruined because they placed their trust  in some website or immigration forum.  Although a lot of my immigration practice is devoted to business immigration for large multinational companies, I still have a sizable portion of work that I do for individuals. It was witnessing first hand the destruction of peoples hopes and dreams of immigrating to Canada that caused me to want to do something different.  People would come to my office when they had run out of options hoping that I could somehow save them.  However, time after time if they’d only come to me a year earlier I could’ve helped them. But the majority of times there was nothing that I could do but tell them they would have to go home.  I do not do free consultations, however I really struggled charging people that I could not help. Because of this and the many consultations that I had with individuals it was starting to impact on my practice and its Financial viability.  I couldn’t keep giving my time away for free yes I also couldn’t stop trying to help people who had nowhere else to turn. I recognize my legal fees were more expensive than other representatives in my community and because of that people would only come to me when they had nowhere else to go.  So I decided that the best way I could help people on a grand scale was to create a website where I wrote blogs and share tips and strategies and a podcast where I answered listeners questions and provided insight to help people protect themselves so they wouldn’t make the same mistakes that I saw people making time and time again. My hope is that if I could give people proactive advice to help them prevent making bad decisions, this was the most important thing I could do. Because I couldn’t spend all of my time providing this advice one-on-one, I decided that through social media, through blogging, and this podcast I would be able to get the message out to far more people.  Until today, I have had the privilege of interacting with thousands of people on a scale I never imagined.  It actually blows my mind to think about the influence I can have in the lives of people who really need help but can’t afford it. I will never regret the decision to start this podcast.  It cost me thousands of dollars to set up, but now that I understand how it works it will be a force for significant good in the future.  If I cannot use my calling as a lawyer to make peoples lives better, without expecting to always receive money for those services, then my decision to go to law school was all worth it.   So this brings me back to the Canadian immigration podcast. I have always intended it to be a podcast focused on Canadian law, Policy, and practice. In the beginning I try to produce all the content myself. Obviously, it became overwhelming with the day-to-day work of managing a law firm. However, after attending our last national immigration conference for the CBA. I realize that this platform, the Canadian immigration podcasts, did not have to be something that I hoarded selfishly. As I listened to the various immigration lawyers presenting at our national conference I realized that there was a source of unbelievable knowledge, and experience, that was really being untapped. All lawyers have a desire to help people.  The problem we have is that it is often very difficult to share insight and help with more than one person at a time because we meet with clients one-on-one.  Further, we have to be careful that we are not providing  specific legal advice that is taken by an individual and misunderstood and used to their detriment. Because of this many lawyers are often afraid to wade into the world of content marketing.  However, I have realized the power that exists with podcasting.  And if I could invite these wonderful and amazing lawyers to come on the podcast and share their insight in a platform that can reach thousands or even Hundreds of thousands, of people at a time,  then I have truly found my calling.  Like I said, becoming a lawyer is an opportunity for me to give back to those less fortunate than I. This may sound a little cheesy; however, this is the thing that gives me the most satisfaction as a lawyer.  So going forward, it is not going to be the Mark Holthe show.  I am going to open up this platform to anyone with a message to share, story to tell, or insight and direction that can be given to help people as they navigate the complex world of Canadian immigration law, policy , and practice.   In future episodes, I am going to bring on some of the most intelligent, most experienced, most seasoned, and just overall awesome immigration lawyers consultants and hopefully one day government officers to help demystify an area that has become insanely complicated. You were listening to the aid  With nowhere else to turn, I’m going to give people somewhere to look for information. And when these experienced wonderful immigration practitioners choose to sacrifice their time to come on the podcast, I will then do everything in my power to let those listeners know exactly where they can find them. In this way I’m also giving back to everyone of those lawyers who comes to the podcast ready to really bring it. IN other words, I want to set the bar extremely high. When a guest has prepared themselves to share fantastic insight that you cannot get anywhere else and to really showcase their knowledge and understanding and to make it available in a way that would never otherwise be available.  This is when everyone wins.  This podcast isn’t going to be about fancy instructional videos, or expensive websites, or slick design. This podcast is going to be all about content. And my goal is to create the best immigration content  available and not only spoken word, but written content as well.  I’m hoping to get guest bloggers to share articles and insight in written form as well. Ultimately the goal is to make this the central  platform for immigration professionals to have something to share, Something to offer, that can really make a difference in the lives of the people who to the podcast. Okay, I think you get it. This podcast is going to be totally awesome. Alright so let’s shift to the last part of this podcast. As I have told you, I have been lining up some of the best possible guests you could get to discussed Canadian immigration law policy and practice. Here is a sampling of what I have in store for you.  Ravi Jain with Green and Spiegel in Toronto –Spousal Sponsorships Strategies for inland v. outland filing Bad faith marriages (the two tests) Spousal open work permits Appeal process Processing times Levels planning   Rekha McNutt from Caron and Partners in Calgary – JR process – dealing with TRV refusals Mentioned previously that first recording didn’t go very well. This will be our second attempt when the visa offices are just not nice – what do you do?   Marina Sedai – Sedia Law Office - Express Entry We presented at our National Immigration Conference of the CBA on Express Entry Ran out of time – so much more to cover than what we were able to do in our presentation Lawyers don’t want to listen to us, when they had John Acheson there He was very transparent – so transparent that he told us who is actually responding to our requests for reconsideration on EE refusals – the call centre agents I had to jump out of my chair to protect him from the invisible fruit that was being tossed at him by the other lawyers We are going to cover a lot of the areas that we didn’t get a chance to cover in our presentation. One specific area is a number of questions about that our colleagues at sent us to address in our presentation. Because we ran out of time we didn’t get a chance to answer all the questions. So hopefully we can address that in our presentation. Marina is a good friend and I am really excited about this one.   Jeffrey Lowe – Lowe and Company in Vancouver – Owner Operator LMIAs One of the most entrepreneurial business minded immigration lawyers in the country 2014 at our National CBA Immigration conference, Jeffrey, myself and Janet Thomson Price presented on the unique topic of Money Matters – The Business of Immigration Law I have the chance to really get to know Jeffrey.  We talked about the changing landscape of immigration and our lawyers had to adapt to the business opportunities that present themselves.
