The Automotive Restoration Technology program at McPherson College was established in 1976, and since its inception the curriculum has included the study of the technical and social history of the automobile. Given this experience, Yohn addresses how McPherson might inform teaching the specialized field of motor racing. He will begin by giving an overview of the McPherson automotive history curriculum and conclusions about substantive content choices and best teaching practices. By examining the comparative scope of automotive history and motor racing history, Yohn will present areas of substantial overlap and differentiation. Finally, he will present suggestions for curriculum and teaching practices. Participants will be requested to share their reflections on the following question: What 3 key topics should every motor racing historian understand?

One of preservation's biggest challenges is climate change. On this week's PreserveCast, we are talking with Benjamin Curran, a 2021 recipient of the Harrison Goodall Fellowship. Curran's project intended to explore the viability of constructing low-cost open-source sensors for the purpose of increasing the breadth of communities engaged in self-monitoring their susceptibility to sea level rise. Join us in talking with Curran on how his project unfolded and what lessons it holds for preservationists across the nation.   Benjamin works as the Historic Trades Curriculum Developer at Preservation Maryland, where he designs and develops multimedia educational content available online. Curran is the former Department Head of STC's Historic Preservation and Restoration Program and the Director of STC's Center for Traditional Craft. He was the lead faculty instructor for Historic Preservation at Edgecombe Community College in Taraboro, NC. While working in the remote sensing lab at the University of New Hampshire Earth System Research Center in Durham, N.H., he was a co-investigator for research funded by a National Geographic Society/Waitt Foundation grant investigating the impacts of sea level rise on saltwater intrusion for coastal heritage sites. Benjamin received his bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from the University of New Hampshire and his graduate degree from Plymouth State University where he studied Historic Preservation and Education.   Learn More: Interview with Harrison Goodall: https://www.preservecast.org/2020/05/11/building-a-legacy-in-the-preservation-trades-with-dr-harrison-goodall/ 2021 Fellows Selected: https://www.preservationmaryland.org/2021-harrison-goodall-fellows-selected/ 2022 Fellows Selected: https://www.preservationmaryland.org/2022-harrison-goodall-preservation-fellow-selected/

Today's episode is an interview with Rebecca Wells, Victory's FIRST woman to graduate from the Restoration Program. Rebecca's dad wasn't around much when she was a kid.

For this episode ofaBlogtoWatch Weekly, our usual trio of hosts, Ariel, Rick, and David are joined by Cam from the TriWatches Podcast. To kick off the show, our hosts discuss how Geneva is finally going to have its first pre-owned luxury watches event, and ponder what the Swiss version of a pre-owned watches show might look like, given Switzerland's long-standing reluctance to embrace the secondary market. From there, the conversation shifts to the truth behind the decrease in pre-owned luxury watch prices, and how this recent change is only really allocated to the mega-hype watches that were trading hands for values significantly above their original brand new retail prices. Given that an increasing number of manufacturers are entering the pre-on space themselves, our quartet of hosts tries to answer the question as to whether or not there might ever come a time when we see the entire pre-owned luxury watch industry shift towards an in-house format.After discussing all things related to the pre-owned luxury watch industry, our hosts turn their attention to the new factory restoration program that G-Shock is offering for select vintage collectible models, and how this limited-time program shows a commitment to the brand's heritage and its dedicated collectors. With the final word said on older watches, Ariel, Rick, David, and Cam turned their attention to new watches, and up first is the all-new Speedmaster X-33 Marstimer from Omega. After discussing whether or not the X-33 platform can still be considered a class-leading astronaut's tool, our hosts decide to discuss the new Shinola Mechanic watches and whether or not these new models represent a new enthusiast-driven direction for the brand. Closing out this week's episode is a review of the new Linear Series 1 Tourbillon from Hautlence, and a quick discussion of how this decidedly modern and funky brand fits in with the rest of the various timepieces that occupy a similar space within the industry. As always, Ariel has an exciting upcoming schedule with a dinner for Hublot and a trip to Sicily with Jacob & Co., and there will also be special edition episodes of aBlogtoWatch Weekly coming down the pipeline, with the first one featuring an inside look at Bulgari watches.Show Notes2:27https://www.ablogtowatch.com/ariels-thoughts-it-should-be-no-surprise-that-recently-inflated-watch-prices-are-down/9:21https://www.ablogtowatch.com/casio-announces-factory-restoration-program-for-select-vintage-g-shock-watches/28.13Last Weeks Show This Week29:33https://www.ablogtowatch.com/omega-unveils-the-speedmaster-x-33-marstimer-watch/37:53https://www.ablogtowatch.com/hands-on-debut-shinola-mechanic-watches/46:08https://www.ablogtowatch.com/hands-on-hautlence-linear-series-1-tourbillon-watch/We'd love to hear from you with feedback or suggestions for future show topics or guests.

Today we're talking with Chris Pollard, a recent graduate from Victory Mission's Restoration Program. Chris started getting in trouble at a young age. He grew up feeling insecure, searching for a place where he would be accepted. He found himself hanging around people who ran the streets and he did whatever he could to fit in with the group. Soon it became part of who he was. He spent the majority of his teenage and adult years in prison. Eventually he realized he was in too deep. He was stranded in Kansas City, hiding from people who wished him harm. For the first time in his life, his mom was scared of him. That's when Chris knew he needed to change. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Victory Mission on Facebook and Instagram: Facebook: @victorymission Instagram: @victory.mission

Jon's drinking habit escalated gradually. It started as just going out on weekends, having fun with old friends, and maybe having a drink every once in a while. Then having a little bit more. Then it was binge drinking on the weekends, but not during the week. Eventually Jon's drinking escalated into a daily habit. He was miserable: sunk down spiritually and mentally. But now Jon is a graduate of Victory's Restoration Program. He's walked through the rebuilding process and is now reaping the benefits of a restored life. Hear Jon's testimony of how he went from daily medicating with alcohol to living free through Jesus Christ. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Victory Mission on Facebook and Instagram: Facebook: @victorymission Instagram: @victory.mission

Your schedule is filled with activities that have proven to be effective in recovery and the rehabilitation process. Your first week will have a number of assessments and some of these are done off-site, so we balance this activity with the opportunity to rest. Sleep is an important part of rehabilitation and recovery, allowing your brain and body to heal. Some of the activities in your schedule are designed to promote sleep hygiene to help you get the best sleep you've had in a long time.   Volition Luxury Rehab Accommodation   The Volition Luxury Rehab is a small, private facility based in some of the most beautiful areas of Australia. The small size of the institute provides a relaxed atmosphere. Many clients do not enjoy the big, resort-style rehab experience other facilities offer. Volition Luxury Rehab makes the entire experience private, secure, and settled.   Volition Luxury Rehab understands that not everyone has the ability to undertake a lengthy program of recovery lasting several weeks or even months. While the team do believe a longer stay only benefits long term wellness programs can be tailored for an intensive two week restorative program combined with up to six months aftercare.   The program welcomes up to six clients at a time. The low number of clients makes it possible for the rehab's staff to work one-to-one with individuals on a regular basis. After being picked up at the airport or home, you will arrive at Volition Luxury Rehab's luxurious accommodation at one of their private residences.   You will have private luxury executive accommodations that may be pet-friendly upon request.

Most guests take a period of digital detox from their devices so they can focus on their recovery and support and you are able to contact your loved ones periodically using a house-device common use. Volition Luxury Rehab Privacy   The low number of clients, just six at one time, makes the Volition Luxury Rehab one of the most private and secure around.

Our state-of-the-art facility combines exceptional standards of excellence with world-renowned expertise, compassion and sensitivity.   Disadvantages of Volition Luxury Rehab   At Worlds Best Rehab magazine we feel it important to cover both the advantages and disadvantages of our featured treatment centers and while the advantages of Volition are abundant we must point out that the program is not for everyone. The programs at Volition are specifically tailored to entrepreneurs, executives, high-profile persons, and professionals. Volition Luxury Rehab stands outside the health insurance systems. Clients are self-payers, which is what makes absolute discretion and secrecy possible. For a definitive reservation, Volition always requires a deposit in advance.  The Volition recovery residences are not hospitals, and private health insurance does not currently cover private residential addiction treatment or recovery facilities in Australia. Some guests can treat a program as a business expense, depending on your circumstance. Other guests look into accessing their superannuation to fund a program.   Rehabs in Australia: https://www.worldsbest.rehab/australia/ Worlds Best Rehabs: https://www.worldsbest.rehab/  

Study questions reporting, transparency in popular federal Great Lakes restoration program; Detroit River cleanup lags

Whether you are new to the outdoors, or have spent your entire life or dedicated your career to it - you should have an understanding of one of the greatest success stories out there today:  America's Wildlife Restoration Program.  This program has pumped more than $14 BILLION into wildlife management, restoration of species, research and education, and public access to it.  It all began in the late 1800s/early 1900s when market hunting was going on, and there were no limits to the numbers of wildlife being taken through hunting and trapping.  A group of people came together {HUNTERS} and for the FIRST time in history, and the ONLY time in history - asked to be taxed on the items they use to conserve the resources they love, for future generations.  In 1937 the Pittman-Robertson Act was passed into legislation, creating a federal excise tax on firearms, ammunition, and archery equipment.  At the end of each year, these excise tax dollars are put into a formula and given back to the states to only be used for wildlife management, education, and other specific activities to be used to benefit wildlife.Not only do these excise tax dollars benefit the game animals, but non-game animals as well who are also living in the same habitat and range benefitting from these management practices in place.  It is all of our responsibility to carry on the legacy of this historic and successful program into the future.  We hold both natural and financial resources in trust for America's hunters and shooters, and carry it forward to the recovery of wildlife species for future generations.   

The Society of American Military Engineers (SAME) Denver Post and Philadelphia Post along with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are hosting a series of webinars based on talks given at recent Design and Construction Issues at Hazardous Waste Sites (DCHWS) Symposiums. The mission of the DCHWS symposiums is to facilitate an interactive engagement between professionals from government and the private sector related to relevant and topical issues affecting applications of engineering and science associated with cleaning up hazardous waste sites. The symposiums also serve as a platform to facilitate the exchange of information, encourage dialogue, share experiences, and build and enhance communication among design and construction professionals. This session will discuss the investigation and remediation of impacted media which has been ongoing at a DoD facility in North Carolina for more than 25 years. Since 2010, the environmental restoration program at the facility has been proactively optimized through the implementation of innovative technologies, focused treatment, and well-defined exit strategies to minimize remediation timeframes, reduce life-cycle costs, and to move away from long-standing pump and treat remedies-in-place and passive long-term monitoring programs. Technologies have included in situ aerobic bioremediation, in situ chemical oxidation, enhanced reductive dechlorination, air sparging, biobarriers, recirculation, bioaugmentation, and subgrade biogeochemical reactors for the treatment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and chlorinated volatile organic compounds in a variety of hydrogeologic settings around the facility. This presentation will discuss the technologies and various application approaches, lessons learned, mass removal and resulting reduction in time to site closure, optimization, and overall cost savings for the restoration program.

Leo Kanell, Founder, 7 Figures Funding A DotCom Magazine Exclusive Interview About Leo Kanell and 7 Figures Funding: The new American dream is to become an entrepreneur and build a business that fulfills your client's needs and turns your dreams into the truth. Behind every successful business owner is a funding story and someone mentoring that entrepreneur towards success. 7 Figures Funding was founded by Leo Kanell, 14 years ago, he struggled to fund his first business and realized that funding was a massive obstacle for many new and small business owners. After helping a few friends and family receive funding he started to realize a pattern existed for funding success, and it was already behind many of the most successful entrepreneurs like: Under Armour's Kevin Plank, Google's Larry Page, and Nike's Phil Knight. Now with tens of thousands of hours in business funding experience, Leo and his team have created a systematic approach to connect entrepreneurs with the best funding resources on the marketplace. Leo and his teams are grateful to have helped thousands of entrepreneurs build and grow their businesses through funding, the only question is how much funding will you receive so you can build your dream business and life! We are dedicated to serving new entrepreneurs and established business owners a like. With the uncertainty regarding the clear slowdown in the economy, the need to have capital and lines of credit on hand may be the difference between staying or going out of business.

We guarantee every client 2 things: 1. The best funding you qualify for and 2. The best funding products on the entire marketplace coast to coast Not only that, we put you in a better place financially. Many of our clients have had to use high interest personal credit in order to fund their business or personal expenses. We help you move those debts to new 0% accounts and save thousands! HOW IT WORKS Simply go to 7Figures.com and within seconds you can get a free pre-approval. Use the funding to grow your dream business! FUNDING PARTNERS

"We have a treasure. The buildings here are fragile and susceptible to damage and deterioration. It is our privilege to be able care for them and be able to pass them on to next generations." ~ John Lauber "So many experiences from the people that have come to Holden Village have included a special time on these porches. They in themselves are a sacred space." ~ Chris Gustafson "If you drive through the countryside and see an old barn, in all likelihood, you start recreating a story of what was in that barn, or why that barn was there, or what was going on at that period of time. It becomes almost a story within a visual. Wouldn't it be nice to leave many of these treasures for future people?" ~ Harrison Goodall Dr. Harrison Goodall has over forty-eight years of experience with historic structures and facilities management and nearly sixty years of experience in training and education throughout the country. Harrison has been involved in preserving hundreds, if not thousands of historic structures around the nation. A 2016 award from the National Park Service documented that Goodall completed over 135 volunteer historic preservation projects in 55 national parks.

There are many types of residential,  intensive and individual programs designed to help the addict, but today, Carol the Coach will be interviewing Timothy Lee, who founded  the New York Pathways Relationship Restoration Program. We are featuring this program  because it works from a partner sensitive approach in that it includes loooking at partner trauma. Timothy describes treating both the addict and the betrayed partner and working to restore the relationship. He defines the addicts program as the following: we work from the addiction treatment model, which focuses on abstinence, psychotherapy, peer support and 12-step recovery. For our partners, we are mainly using a trauma model of treatment, helping the partner establish safety self-care and setting boundaries. We also work with the conjoint therapy model. The model focuses on various tasks to be completed to maintain good individual and relational recovery.He does this by meeting with his therapist along with his partner and her therapist. Listen as he talks about why he believes this to be such an important treatment program for couples!

The Podcast for Project Managers by Project Managers. In the 1900's, a fungal pathogen which causes chestnut tree blight destroyed 90% of nearly 4 billion American chestnut trees.

NICK WALKER:  Welcome to Manage This, the podcast by project managers for project managers.  Every couple of weeks we meet to talk about how people like you are managing projects both big and small.  Our guests include speakers, authors, and trainers, but also those who are right there in the trenches, getting the stuff of project management done on a daily basis. I'm your host, Nick Walker.  And before we get to today's guest, we are thrilled to acknowledge the return of one of the founding fathers of this podcast, Andy Crowe, back from, well, I guess the project of a lifetime.  Welcome back. ANDY CROWE:  Thank you so much, yeah, we've taken a short break. The boat, which is named Gratitude, is in Grenada right now. So we've sailed it from Florida, all the way down through the Caribbean, down to Grenada, which is really close to South America, and are waiting out hurricane season there. NICK WALKER:  Well, we're going to talk with you more in detail about your adventure in the next podcast but... ANDY CROWE:  Great. Meet Dr. Powell NICK WALKER:  So let's meet our guest, Professor William A. Powell is the director of the American Chestnut Research and Restoration Program.  Dr. Powell received his Ph.D. in 1986 at Utah State University, studying ways to bring back the American chestnut tree, a tree that became functionally extinct after being devastated by a fungus from Asia.  Approximately 90 percent of the nearly four billion trees were killed by blight. In 1989 he became a faculty member at the State University of New York's College of Environmental Science and Forestry at Syracuse, New York.  There he began collaborating with his colleague, Dr. Charles Maynard, and the American Chestnut Foundation, researching methods to develop a tree resistant to the blight.  He's worked for the last three decades to reintroduce the American chestnut to the wild, and their efforts are succeeding.  Dr. Powell, so great to have you with us, welcome to Manage This. DR. BILL POWELL:  Thank you. NICK WALKER:  So let's start off the conversation by learning more about your career path and how you became passionate about the American chestnut tree. DR. BILL POWELL:  So like most people, when I was younger, I actually hadn't heard about the American chestnut, you know, it's been gone for a while.  But when I went to graduate school I was very fortunate to get into Dr Neal Van Alfen's lab, and there we worked on the fungus that causes chestnut blight.  And that's where I kind of learned the chestnut story, and it's a fascinating story because the American chestnut was once one of the most common trees in the east...
