A man found dead on an Adelaide beach in 1948—his identity unknown, his past a riddle, and his pocket containing a cryptic phrase: "Tamam Shud"—meaning "it is finished." But what if it wasn’t finished? In this episode, hear from Professor Derek Abbott, a man who has spent decades unraveling this enigma. And now, he claims to have the answer. Using DNA technology, Derek has identified the Somerton Man. But does this revelation truly close the case? Or does it open even deeper questions about who The Somerton Man was, how he died, and the strange, almost spy-like clues surrounding his final days?

Robin Thompson says he is an IT stress reliever working with small and medium-sized businesses helping ensure that their IT is not causing them stress. Sam and Robin have known each other for a long time having started their business at a similar time and having run a networking event together. Robin's journey into IT has been an interesting one. As a child of the 80s he has been using computers since he was a child. Robin spent ten years in financial services and then moved to working in higher education. He did do some first line IT support as part of his role. But also did things like exam timetables for the University of Hull. At one stage Robin was offered the opportunity to take voluntary redundancy from the University, At the same time Helen his wife and co-director was between jobs and so they decided to take the redundancy and setup the business. Sam asks what photographers need to think about in terms of their IT. Robin says for those in creative industries you will need high spec equipment and lots of processing power. Backing up your data is an important thing to think about. But due to the file sizes that photographers deal with are very large so that cloud storage can start to get very expensive. Robin suggests one way of doing this is having project files on cloud storage, but use external hard drives to backup the raw photo files. Backblaze is service that some photographers use as the storage is a lot cheaper than Google or Microsoft cloud storage. In terms of security Robin says the built in security has got a lot better over the years on Windows computers. He also reminds us that Macs, contrary to popular opinion, can get viruses. They can also pass viruses onto Windows computer and it is not good for your business if you accidentally pass viruses onto customers, so ensure macs have 3rd party anti-virus software on them. Robin says domains and emails are also important. Some small businesses use Gmail or Hotmail addresses for their business and this does not look very professional. Then have a professional email system around that, that will scan incoming and outgoing emails. Spoofing is a challenge at the moment (spoofing is someone pretending to be someone else). Good email scanning will deal with this. On top of this email marketing needs a domain based email address. Because we do have problems like spoofing there are now systems in place to prevent this. But this does also mean it can be harder to deliver genuine email. When properly setup this isn't a problem, but setting up email accounts correctly is correct. Robin explains that backups are much more than photos. Emails, invoices, contact information and more, all needs backing up. If these aren't backed up it could cost you your business. Robin has used photography in his business and he says you can tell when photography has been done professionally. Robin had the opportunity to be in a magazine with a focus on his wife in the business. They got professional photography for that and thought the results were excellent. Although you can take photos with a phone, it is not the same. Sam asked Robin to share his experience of using professional photographers. Robin thinks that initial conversation, before the photo shoot is very important. It's a careful balance of the photographer providing expertise and suggestions with listening. Also many people are very uncomfortable in front of the camera and so making people at their ease in front of the lens is important. He likes the idea of a retainer for photographers but doesn't work on that basis with his photographer.

In this episode, Robin Thompson, co-founder of Zoweh, discusses the process of recognizing and repairing the ways she may not have loved her children well in their growing-up years. She shares how engaging in narrative-focused trauma care helped her understand her own story and equipped her to listen to others. Robin emphasizes the importance of listening to ourselves and offers insights on how to engage in meaningful conversations with others. She also shares her hope for people to have authentic, life-changing encounters with God through Zoweh's resources and events. In this conversation, Robin discusses the offerings and resources provided by her organization, as well as the importance of being better listeners.Robin is learning that it's okay to not be okay, to hold complexities, that there is room for far more than she ever thought, and that her voice is needed. Mourning with those who mourn and rejoicing with those who rejoice is one of Robin's great passions. She loves being home, adores the quiet, and loves laughing and traveling with her handsome husband Michael. Time with their three grown daughters is especially treasured.TakeawaysEngaging in narrative-focused trauma care can help us understand our own stories and equip us to better listen to others.Listening to ourselves and being present in the moment can enhance our relationships and promote healing.Avoiding bright siding and allowing space for silence can create a safe and supportive environment for others to share their stories.Zoweh offers resources and events that aim to help people have authentic, life-changing encounters with God.Being a good listener is essential for connecting with others and deepening our relationship with God.Reflection Questions1.

Tuesday afternoon, summer of 2017: Scotty Hatton and Scottie Wightman made a decision to help someone in need and both paid a price for their actions that day — actions that have led to a legal, moral, and scientific puzzle about how we balance accountability and forgiveness. In this 2019 episode, we go to Bath County, Kentucky, where, as one health official put it, opioids have created “a hole the size of Kentucky.” We talk to the people on all sides of this story about stemming the tide of overdoses. We wrestle with the science of poison and fear, and we try to figure out whether and when the drive to protect and help those around us should rise above the law.

Raging success or a colossal failure? The latter was not an option. The only choice was to exceed expectations and crush goals. Robin Thompson recounts The Victory School's amazing creativity and incredible fundraising feat!
June 30, 2022 — After seven years of fundraising and scouting for a location, the Friends of the Long Valley Public Library are close to opening a branch of the county library in downtown Laytonville. The Friends have raised about $40,000 since 2015, and just last week, the library got the green light for a USDA Rural Development Grant of $64,200 as a 75% match to buy furniture, books, and other materials for opening day. Shawn Haven, one of the core members of the Friends group, met KZYX on Wednesday morning at the future location of the new branch, in the Foster's shopping center just off of Highway 101. “We got started in 2015,” she recalled. “John Pinches offered us the old Bookmobile, and we went from there.” The county has an established Bookmobile program, which brings books to Laytonville every other Tuesday. “That Bookmobile that they gave us was not fit for county employee habitation, so we sold that and used the money, moving toward this project,” she said. “Of course, paying rent on this space through covid was a little pricey, but we're getting there. A little more to go, and we'll be ready.” Deborah Fader Samson, the Library and Museum Director, said in an email that she is planning for a New Year's Grand Opening. Haven is pleased with the central location, which is within sight of the elementary and middle schools. It's a block or so from the high school and the Book Room, a bookstore at the site of the old high school that serves as an ongoing fundraiser for the library. The walls at the Book Room are lined with school lockers, murals by a visiting Mayan scholar, a piano that's out of tune, and donated bookshelves stuffed with volumes. There is also a seed library, which will remain even after the public library opens. The Book Rom has taken on a life of its own over the years. “We started with a big pile of boxes of books right there,” Haven recalled. Originally, the local school superintendent gave the Friends permission to use the old school site as storage for their books between sales. “And we thought, well, this is such a mess, we can't function in here,” she said. “So we put up some shelves. And then we thought, well, we can put up some more shelves. And then we said, well, can we open it? Why schlepp all these books? We're all old ladies, right? So she said, sure, go ahead. We just kept expanding our space, expanding our hours, so there you have it.” The Book Room has become more than a bookstore raising money for the library. It's a hub of community activity, with a large central room where groups gather to play bridge, spin, have healthy snacks, or curl up with one of the approximately 3,500 books that continue to pour in. Volumes are currently organized by subject and age range, with one shelf dedicated to books about insects for young people, another featuring biographies, and one section devoted entirely to books by lawyers. “We have a little bit of everything,” Haven observed. “Or, as they say, something to offend everyone. The true job of a library.” Haven promised the Book Room won't be phased out by the library. “The library here, to start off, will be open three days a week,” she said. “Probably Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. And then the Book Room is open Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. So there will be full literary and seed library coverage every day except Sunday…so we've got your back.” The library site has had multiple incarnations: it's been a restaurant, a beauty parlor, and, most recently, a tattoo shop. It's about 1000 square feet and has the capacity for around a thousand books, plus computers, magazines, and newspapers. And there's a variety of artwork, starting with a hand-carved chinquapin counter carved by local woodworker Robin Thompson along the expansive, north-facing windows, “for laptop work and staring out the window,” Haven noted. There will be two public computer stations, with free broadband provided by a California State Library grant with speeds up to 1 Gbps, “so it's fast and reliable, unless someone cuts a cable, of course.” The Friends of the Library also have a 4x6 mural of local nature scenes that artist Danza Davis painted with kids at Juvenile Hall, as part of a Get Art in the Schools Program grant through the Arts Council. That piece will be one of the first things patrons see when they walk into the library. But another work of art, in the future break room, is being diligently covered over with a meticulous decoupage of printed material. “This post, it had pinups on it,” Haven said, gesturing at a column still featuring a few remnants of vintage girly pictures, leftover from the tattoo shop. “It's really sad to cover them up,” she said. “But the method is starch with a little varathane over it, so if anyone ever wants to restore it, they can. I hate to destroy someone else's art.” The Friends found the site about three years ago, but the learning curve was steep, especially during covid. “When we started this, we didn't even know we had to have a permit,” Haven recalled; “because we weren't doing anything major. The place had been a business before. It was obviously okay…we thought. So we had to get an architect…it sounds so easy. But it took like three years.” They had to repair an unsafe irregularity in the floor, install new lighting and lots of new electrical outlets, and lay down a new sidewalk that's ADA accessible from the parking lot. The furniture is supposed to arrive in November, right around the time the ballots go out, with a measure asking voters if they'd like to double Measure A, to a quarter cent sales tax, and keep it going in perpetuity. Voters will also be asked to decide on a quarter cent sales tax for fire services. “The two taxes are not in a fight, I don't think,” Haven said. “So we'll be out and about, and out and about.” Voters have been primed by the signature-gathering process, “and we'll be sure they stay primed, and get more primed, and bring their friends.”
PORGY AND BESS COMPOSER: George Gershwin LYRICIST: Ira Gershwin, DuBose Heyward BOOK: DuBose Heyward SOURCE: Porgy by DuBose Heyward (1925) DIRECTOR: Rouben Mamoulian PRINCIPLE CAST: Anne Brown (Bess), John W. Bubbles (Sportin' Life), Todd Duncan (Porgy), OPENING DATE: October 10th, 1935 CLOSING DATE: January 25th, 1936 PERFORMANCES: 124 SYNOPSIS: When the murderous Crown abandons his lover Bess, a disabled beggar, Porgy, vows to protect her. When Crown vows to return and take Bess away, Porgy and Bess's love for one another is thrown into peril. With a score and libretto by George and Ira Gershwin with DuBose Heyward respectively, Porgy and Bess tells the controversial love story of a disabled Black man named Porgy through the style of grand opera. The premiere production featured a troupe of classically trained Black singers and was significant for the way it fused American folk music with classical orchestrations. Key songs became standards in their day, and ‘Summertime' maintains its popularity as a jazz cover. Davóne Tines explores the complexity of this piece, specifically how it relates to the black experience being created through a white lens. Davóne Tines- Heralded as a "singer of immense power and fervor" and “[one] of the most powerful voices of our time” (@latimes) "the immensely gifted American bass-baritone Davóne Tines has won acclaim, and advanced the field of classical music." (@nytimes) this “next generation leader (Time Magazine) is a path-breaking artist at the intersection of many histories, cultures, and aesthetics, his work blends opera, spirituals, gospel, and anthems, as a means to tell a deeply personal story of perseverance and human connection.

In this episode we speak to Dr Robin Thompson about how data is being used to inform the mathematical models behind the models of COVID-19. (episode recorded on 29 April 2020)
In this episode we speak to Dr Robin Thompson about how data is being used to inform the mathematical models behind the models of COVID-19.(episode recorded on 29 April 2020)
The eleventh episode of our Anatomy of a Pandemic series has arrived, and just in time. Have you found yourself trying to sift through headlines claiming “this model predicts that” and “that model predicts this”, but you’re not sure where the truth really lies? Then this episode is for you. With the help of Dr. Mike Famulare from the Institute for Disease Modeling (interview recorded April 29, 2020), we walk through the basics of mathematical modeling of infectious disease, explore some of the current projections for this pandemic, and discuss some guidelines for evaluating these headline-making models. As always, we wrap up the episode by discussing the top five things we learned from our expert. To help you get a better idea of the topics covered in this episode, we’ve listed the questions below: What is a math model and what are some of the goals of mathematical modeling? So talking specifically now about infectious disease models, can you walk us through what the basic components are of an infectious disease model, like an SIR model? Where do you get the data that you use to estimate the parameters in an SIR model - what is based on actual data and what has to be estimated? Infectious disease outbreaks often have a curve-like shape, with the number of infected individuals on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Can you explain why infectious disease epidemics tend to follow a curve? Can you talk us through some of the assumptions that you have to make when you're constructing one of these models and how that kind of relates to the uncertainty inherent within models? How might that uncertainty affect interpretation? What are some examples of the various ways we use infectious disease models in public health policy? Can you talk about how models might be used at various stages of a pandemic to guide public health measures? How might our use of models early on in a pandemic be different from the middle of one? Speaking specifically about COVID-19 now, can you talk about what a basic model for this pandemic might look like? Are models for COVID-19 using only lab-confirmed cases of the disease or clinical-confirmed cases as well? Looking back on these earlier models of COVID-19, what can we take away from the performance of these models? Is there any agreement among models as to what policies might be the best in terms of keeping cases and deaths as low as possible? For those of us who have no background in mathematical or statistical modeling, are there guidelines that we should use to evaluate these models or compare them? What should we (as in the general public) be taking away from these models? Are there any positive changes you hope to see come out of this pandemic, either as a member of the community or as a math modeler? For a deeper dive into the wonderful world of infectious disease models, we recommend checking out this recent video from Robin Thompson, PhD of Oxford Mathematics titled “How do mathematicians model infectious disease outbreaks?” The video was posted on April 8, 2020.
Models. They are dominating our Lockdown lives. But what is a mathematical model? We hear a lot about the end result, but how is it put together? What are the assumptions? And how accurate can they be? In our first online only lecture Robin Thompson, Research Fellow in Mathematical Epidemiology in Oxford, will explain. Robin is working on the ongoing modelling of Covid-19 and has made many and varied media appearances in the past few weeks

And how accurate can they be? In our first online only lecture Robin Thompson, Research Fellow in Mathematical Epidemiology in Oxford, will explain. Robin is working on the ongoing modelling of Covid-19 and has made many and varied media appearances in the past few weeks
ITV News Health Correspondent Emily Morgan and ITV News Science Editor Tom Clarke talk to Dr Robin Thompson, Junior Research Fellow in Mathematical Epidemiology at the University of Oxford, who explains the remarkable numbers behind social distancing - and how one individual can stop infecting hundreds or thousands more people by limiting their contact with others.
On a Tuesday afternoon back in the summer of 2017, Scotty Hatton and Scottie Wightman both made a decision to help someone in need. They both paid a price for their actions that day, which have led to a legal, moral, and scientific puzzle about how we balance accountability and forgiveness. In this episode, we go to Bath County, Kentucky, where, as one health official put it, opioids have created “a hole the size of Kentucky.” We talk to the people on all sides of this story about stemming the tide of overdoses, we wrestle with the science of poison and fear, and we try to figure out when the drive to protect and help those around us should rise above the law. This story was reported by Peter Andrey Smith with Matt Kielty, and produced by Matt Kielty.

Jon & Stephanie Iannotti have been Entrepreneurs and Business Leaders since 2000. Prior to that Jon worked in a Steel Mill in PA as a Quality/Safety Inspector for 24 years and prior to that was a Policeman turned Police Chief. Stephanie was an Orthopedic Technician and Personal Assistant to a very well known Orthopedic Surgeon in Pittsburgh for 24 years. Then the Real Estate Investing Bug….Bit them hard!!! They now have over 36 years combined experience in Real Estate Investing/Teaching, and Mentoring and over 3000 creative deals under their belts, they are considered one of the best in the industry. The Iannotti’s are huge believers in Multiple Streams of Income! To help their students and Real Estate Investors across the country they have come up with some amazing ways to structure deals that are cutting edge. They have done many deals with their student partners using these state of the art techniques which are now being taught across the country and internationally. They are the creators of ACT (Agreeable Contract Terms). This program has totally changed many investors’ lives with the teachings and techniques. Then in 2012, due to even more changes in the Real Estate Market, the Iannotti’s came up with another System called REACT (Reverse Engineered Agreeable Contract Terms). REACT is now taking the Real Estate Investing world by storm as well as their most recent program CATS (Complete Agreeable Terms System), which combined both of the systems. Jon and Stephanie have trained with and worked with some of the biggest names in Real Estate Investing. To name a few, Ron LeGrand, Robin Thompson, Lee Phillips, Al Aiello, Ted Thomas, Lou Brown, and many others. Not only have they mentored hundreds of their own students, they have also mentored hundreds of Ron Legrand’s real estate students. Seeing a great need for another Real Estate Investing Association in the Southwest Florida Region to help educate and train Real Estate Investors, Jon & Stephanie approached one of their associates and decided to form the Florida Gulf Coast Real Estate Investing Alliance. They are looking forward to continuing to bring knowledge and training to as many Investors as possible and are always continuing to keep their skills fine-tuned and cutting edge so that their knowledge can be passed to those that they associate with. Their motto for Real Estate Investing….”Knowledge is key, Timing is crucial, Location is important and having a Mentor or Coach will keep you on the path to Success!” The Iannotti’s are also 3 Time Amazon #1 Best Selling Authors.The books include their most recent Book “Elite Real Estate Leaders” along with their 2nd book “Business Leaders Success” and the 1st book “The New Masters of Real Estate, Getting Deals Done in the New Economy.” 12 of the 18 contributing authors in the 1st book were mentored or coached by them personally. Jon and Stephanie are also highly sought after National Speakers and National & International Mentors to well over 400 students over the past few 15 years. Owning their own businesses have given them the freedom to live where they want to live, do what they want to do and when they want to do it. By Systematizing and putting their businesses on Auto Pilot, the Iannotti’s have been given the name, “The Cruise Control Couple.” What you’ll learn about in this episode: How the flexibility of Jon and Stephanie’s course adapts to the real estate market and prepares their students to handle different scenarios The importance of developing the skills that let you recognize when a marketing technique isn’t working and how to shift to different pathways to bring in leads How to use creative thinking to survive when the market becomes more seller-friendly, making it harder to get the contract you’re looking for How their students benefit from the profit-sharing option offered by getting to work with someone experienced at closing deals while receiving support along the way How to make the most of the leads without letting difficult market conditions keep you from success Helping sellers get to a place where they’re comfortable saying “yes” to a deal by removing the complexity from real estate terminology and making the upside clear How to turn profits on deals where you might initially pay more than you wanted for a piece of property How they model themselves after internet loan companies and find paths to funding outside of banks from lots of different sources, selecting the ones that benefit them most Being able to recognize when certain selling techniques will work and when to change them to match the conditions of the market How to Find long-term success by striking the right balance of adjusting to the needs of both motivated and non-motivated sellers Resources: REInvestorSummit.com/ionnattie REInvestorSummit.com/PATLive REInvestorSummit.com/Machine REInvestorSummit.com/100 REInvestorSummit.com/coaching Love the show?
