What's the best way to create a work product when you're working on a personal injury case? Laura Keegan, an LNC who brings to her work 28 years of widely varied nursing experience, gives you the answers you need. Her most important piece of advice is: Always ask the attorneys what they want. You'll get a range of responses. Second: You may have your own ideas of how a chronology or summary should be organized, but don't assume you're right. Give the attorneys what they want in terms of organization, detail, and types of comments. Follow these rules, and you will have long and happy relationships with your attorney clients. Laura extensively comments on different types of personal injuries. In addition to vehicular accidents, personal injury may include toxic torts, equipment failures, slips and falls, and other kinds of injuries. She also emphasizes the value of deep investigation of providers named in the report and the importance of reviewing bills. She also emphasizes that, while when you find something injurious to your client's case, you need to present the bad news with tact and care. This is a podcast you don't want to miss. The advice in it will ease any uncertainties about how to give the attorneys what they want. Following these guidelines will help you increase your income. Join me in this episode of Powerful LNC Chronologies - Laura Keegan How do attorneys differ in what they want from chronologies? How do you do a depo summary? Why is an LNC a better choice for a summary or chronology than a paralegal? What shouldn't you put in a chronology or report? How can you interest the client in additional services?

It's a new year and the first month is done which means we've got a lot to talk about. I read eight books to kick off 2023 and there were five Hallmark New Year New Movies on TV. Listen now for all my thoughts on The Rom-Com Agenda, The Second You're Single, Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun, Courtiers, and the Briar Off-Campus Series by Elle Kennedy. Hallmark didn't start strong in my opinion with A Dog Lover's Guide to Dating, but picked it up with the continuation of The Wedding Veil series with The Wedding Veil Expectations, Inspiration, and Journey. Journey absolutely became my new favorite movie and the storyline to beat. Finally they closed out with Love in Glacier National, which I liked, but it had so many plot holes I'm just confused. Listen now for all the thoughts and lots of laughs!

On this episode, we chat with author Cara Tanamachi about her new novel The Second You're SIngle, a Rom Com about a woman who turns her goal to swear off dating for the month of February into a popular feature, only to run into a hot baker who might just be the one. Cara shares her background as a writer as well as her own dating experiences with us in this fun author chat.Follow Cara on instagram at @caratanamachi and check out her novel The Second You're Single on sale now!*Support the podcast by purchasing books at our bookshop *Follow our hosts:Reera Yoo (@reeraboo)Marvin Yueh (@marvinyueh)Follow us:FacebookTwitterGoodreads GroupThe Books & Boba February 2023 pick is The Charmed List by Julie AbeThis podcast is part of Potluck: An Asian American Podcast CollectiveMentioned in this episode:Shoes Off: A Sexy Asians Podcast from WBEZIf you're looking for a new Asian American centric podcast, check out Shoes Off: A Sexy Asians Podcast from WBEZ Chicago: Asians have long been ignored, fetishized or made the butt of the joke in America.

December 26th is the day after Christmas… But December 26th is also a special day for some people! It's a holiday in many places, such as the U.K., Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. 在很多國家，耶誕節過後的12月26日也很特別。 December 26th is called "Boxing Day." Boxing Day? Does that mean a day for boxing? 禮物日，跟拳擊有關係嗎？ No… no boxing on Boxing Day. Boxing Day is almost like a second Christmas. 禮物日不打拳。Boxing Day就像第二個Christmas。 The tradition comes from a really nice idea. Many years ago, on the day after Christmas, people would give gifts or a little money to their workers or to poor people. 很久以前，人們會在耶誕節的第二天，給他們的員工或是窮人小禮物。 They would put the gifts or the money in small boxes. 這些禮物或是錢都放在小盒子裡。 So, people started calling the day, "Boxing Day." But today, Boxing Day is mostly just a day for shopping… yeah… more shopping! 到了今天，禮物日變成大減價日。 Hmm. Maybe we should go back to the old Boxing Day idea and give gifts to people who need them. 也許我們應該跟以前一樣，把錢拿去幫助需要的人。 What do you think? ________________________________ Vocabulary 禮物日其實指的是商店大減價。 1. Box 盒子。 I'm going to give our teacher a gift box.我要送我們老師一個禮物盒。 What did you put in the box? 你在盒子裡放了什麼？ A beautiful pair of socks. It's winter time! 一雙漂亮的襪子。現在是冬天啊！ 2. Second 第二。 You'll be the second one to give the teacher a gift. 你是第二個送禮物給老師的人。 What? Who's the first? 什麼？那誰是第一個？ Me! 是我。 3. Gift 禮物。 What will you give her? 你要送她什麼？ I'm not telling you. 不告訴你。 It's something special… 它很特別… and I already gave the gift to her. 而且我已經把禮物送給她了。 4. Tradition 傳統。 Boxing Day is a tradition in many countries. 禮物日在很多國家是個傳統。 It's a good tradition. 它是個好傳統。 I love sales. 我喜歡大減價。 今天的單字很有趣喔，來一起讀一遍。 box 盒子 second 第二 gift 禮物 tradition 傳統 ________________________________ Quiz 1. What day is Boxing Day on? A: December 25th B: December 26th C: December 32nd 2. What's the story of Boxing Day? A: On the day after Christmas, people gave gifts to poor people B: On the day after Christmas, people went to watch boxing C: On the night before Christmas, people looked at boxes 3. What do many people do on Boxing Day now? A: They play with boxes B: They go to church C: They go shopping Answers 1. B 2. A 3. C

Windows 10 supports ends On October 14, 2025 according to a Microsoft support document. We're expecting Microsoft to unveil Windows 11 this week, but I gotta say: It's not going to be hard to get me off Windows 10 if Windows 11 promises less ads and less ‘synergy'. Appropos of nothing I bet this article on how to Disable OneDrive will be as useful to you as it is to me.1⃣ Uno Platform 3.8 – New WinUI Calendar, Grid controls, 2x performance, new Linux scenario and more is the tale of a headline that doesn't know what it wants to be when it grows up. Regardless, if you use Uno, a new version is out.Visual Studio teaches you how to use the updated C# language features and this is pretty neat to watch. I maintain, of course, that if the Egyptians had access to gifs they would have used them to communicate instead of emojis.New data access benchmarks for .NET 5 and .NET Framework 4.8 This benchmark covers all major ORMs (and Microsoft data access strategies like ADO.NET) and has been updated for .NET 5 and .NET Framework 4.8. Enjoy.Migration of Bing's Workflow Engine to .NET 5, by Ben Watson The only fault I have with this blog post is that they never tell you what XAP stands for. If you know, could you do me a solid and let me know, please?Richard Lander talks with folks from the .NET team about “diagnostics” in another “Conversation” series The format is neat, even if the title is a little boring. Microsoft continues its tradition of parroting Mac by parroting Mac OS X for Windows 11. I'm not even mad. That does look better. Here's another article on Windows 11 updated look, if you're interested in that sort of thing.So good I'll share it twice. You wanted a .NET Repl, right? Well now you've got one.Thanks to Khalid Abuakmeh I've learned that Entity Framework Core Exceptions are pretty nice. It tells you the problem and how to fix it. We're in 2021 folks, so this shouldn't be revolutionary, but it is.Microsoft had an outage related to its Ubuntu repositories because of… Diskspace issues. Ok, first off, #hugops to the team that had to deal with this outage. Second: You're the #2 cloud provider in the world. You don't get to have diskspace issues, especially when you have invaded my desktop with “OneDrive”. Those are the rules.Visual Studio 16.11 Preview 2 has been released and this release includes lots of little fixes plus improvements for Git in Visual Studio.You can now try out Visual Studio 2022 Preview 1 (64-bit edition) for free.July 29th you can hear F# developers drone on about how much better F# is because it's .NET Conf “Focus on F#” Day. I can't wait.July 21st Microsoft wants its employees to learn more about racial justice and inequality.And finally, Juneteenth (June 19th) was passed into US Law as a national holiday last week. You learn that not all of the confederacy surrendered on April 9, 1865, and that some (like Texas) decided to keep on until Union soldiers arrived on their doorstep. June 19th, 1865 is the day that union soldiers arrived and told Black slaves they were finally free. Long overdue and a small step towards righting the wrongs of our history.And that's it for what happened Last Week in .NET. If you're pursuing microservices, take my five day course before making the move.

Jeff Heggie Daily Success Strategies 296: Become a Confident Athlete https://jeffheggie.com/confidentathlete All of your life you've been taught WHAT TO THINK. It's time you learn HOW TO THINK. You're in charge of your mind. You can help it grow by using it the right way Just learning about the growth mindset can cause a big shift in the way people think about themselves and their lives. John, a collegiate student athlete, shared this when he learned about the fixed mindset and growth mindset: “As a student athlete I had a fixed mindset. Winning was everything and learning did not enter the picture. However, after [learning about fixed and growth mindsets] I realized that I did not have a good mindset. I've been working on learning while I compete, under the realization that if I can continually improve, even in games, I will become a much better athlete.” John's internal monologue use to be: Win. Win. Win. You have to win to prove yourself. Everything depends on winning. Now it's: Observe. Learn. Improve. Become a better athlete. First – You need to learn as much as you can about having a Fixed Mindset and a Growth Mindset. (I've talked about this is other episodes of my Daily Success Strategies podcast. This is also a major focus in my course, High Achievers Mindset Secrets https://mindset.jeffheggie.com/) Second – You need to learn How to Think! Through this effort and combination, you'll be able to figure out what's best for you because you've cracked YOUR code. Don't just do ‘it' because someone told you to. Tim Grover, in his book W1NNING, he says that “it's no coincidence that the greats figure out what works for them, regardless of what everyone else does.” If you're an athlete that is committed to be ready for your next season, you must develop your mental game! Join me in The Confident Athlete Program where you'll discover the secret formula to develop a powerful mindset, extreme confidence, and take your game to the next level!

Today we're talking about being prepared and proactive in this challenging &crazy life you're living right now.  I want to share my tips based on what has worked for me & what has crashed and burned. You 're juggling work hours, your everyday schedule  plus caring for your Loved One.  Then add the normal every day responsibilities like house chores, meals & errands.Picture this:  My work calendar is online - on my work laptop - on an outlook calendarMy Mom's appointments are on her paper calendar on her bulletin boardMy spouse's appointments are on his phone and through his doctor's app and when he or I remember, they are put on the calendar on our refrigMy business is on my Google calendarThen my personal appointments are on post it notes, in your wallet, maybe the refrig calendar & if I am feeling organized, I add them to the refrig calendar  Can you relate?  Prior to caregiving, I thought I was organized & actually when I was raising my 3 boys, I used to refer to myself as the project master a& knew exactly what was going on at any time.  Times have changed.  I could psycho- analyze myself,  but I believe it takes a heck of a lot of energy, emotions, patience a& time to care for a Loved One.  So in this episode I want to talk about what you can control & what you can do to be as prepared & organized with your time as possible.  Disclaimer here - my way is not always the right way for you.   It took me months  to find what worked for me.  Then, when I got it right, the situation changed again.  You may be saying, why plan & why organize?   Planning is important because it helps you use your time in the most efficient way. You can realistically gauge how much you can get done & how much time you have to do it. That way, you can feel accomplished knowing that you did what you set out to do.When caregiving, you're actually setting expectations for your Loved Ones, keeping your life somewhat organized, & most importantly setting boundaries for yourself & making yourself a priority  Think long &hard on what boundaries you NEED to set for yourself.  You need to put yourself first so you don't stress & burnout.  You are no good to anyone if you can't function physically & emotionally.  So here's a sneak peek into my Sunday's night planning time.  I first grab my favorite beverage & block off 1 hour to plan my week's schedule.    I go into the week feeling much better & have found out that I'm somewhat of a planning nerd now.  Before I share & walk through the steps, I captured everything for you in an easy step by step free document.  Just go to cathylvan.com/sundayplanningLook at all your calendars & put into one calendarIf you are old school, find yourself a nice plannerIf you like electronic,  you can use something like google calendar or i calendarYou now have a visual of what the week holds.  First:  Schedule YOUR time. Second:   You now have to figure out the Caregiving Third:  Then work schedule & commitment  Four:  What other personal obligations or essential responsibilities do I have this weeNow you should be ready to go into your week knowing what is one your schedule.   Obviously you can't control the unexpected.  As a caregiver, you may have to make sacrifices.  But one thing you can't sacrifice is your health & well-being.   You have to recognize the importance of YOU.  Look in the mirror at you & tell yourself that you will take care of her.

Today, I share a tool that has been helpful for both me and my clients in taking action with fear rather than letting it hold us back.Please let me know what questions you have and just know I’m sending you so much love!Additional Resources:Book a call for The Worthiness FormulaFree Grounding MeditationConfident Decision Making Meditation SeriesEmail me at hello@stephanie-dankelson.com for podcast topic/guest recommendations, for questions, or just to say hi :)Hang out with me on Instagram (@stephaniedankelson) for even more resources

I share two quotes I found today with you guys. The first goes, “Someone said you should never be afraid of starting over. Because this time you are not starting from scratch but you are starting from experience.” And the Second “You never regret taking risks, but you will regret not doing that was risky”. I’ll put these quotes up on my Instagram story which is @mka.ampiah and on there, I also create quotes. Let me know your thoughts on this Kobby Talks Podcast episode on Twitter @mka_ampiah.

You can Hope, for something, plan for something, work for something, but you can never expect something. Three things have been on my mind lately. First - Sometimes things in life may seem to just keep stacking against you. It happens to everyone. The real power is in how you get yourself back on track. Second - You cannot expect things to happen in any certain way. There will be times when something happens so quick you don't feel ready for it, and there will be times you feel like nothing will ever happen. It will, for sure, just keep going. Finally, the biggest lesson I ever learned while performing was to always have something stage-ready. There will come a time when you get a last minute booking. Instead of stressing about throwing something together, you will be prepared and ready to go. For even more tips and tools to turn your audience in to fans, Subscribe to the RockStar Lounge.

In our last +1, we talked about the fact that Americans check their phones 8 BILLION times every day. (Wow.)    We also talked about the fact that (at least 5 billion of) those 8 billion checks are essentially kryptonite for the love in your life.   Today I want to talk about some more wisdom from Yuval Noah Harari’s new book, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century.   But first, let’s talk about horses.   I live in a small town in Southern California called Ojai. I’m pretty sure it’s one of the very few places in the world where people ride their horses next to Teslas. (Hah.)   Now, of course, no one in town is getting around primarily via horses, but it’s always fun to see a few people on horseback cruising through town or to see a few horses “parked” outside the local cafe.   So… The other day I saw a fresh horseshoe print on my Trail. For whatever reason, I thought of Elon Musk’s talk to governors.    Note: I pretty much never watch YouTube videos or TED Talks. I read books. Period. (Hah.) But, a good friend of mine (thank you, Michael!) strongly encouraged me to watch this talk. So, I did. And, I’m glad I did. I highly recommend it for a fascinating look at one man’s vision of the future. (Check it out here.)   So… In this discussion, Elon talks about the future of cars. Long story short, he tells us that, at some point in the not-too-distant future, ALL cars will be self-driving. It’s not a question of IF, it’s a question of WHEN.   To make his point, he tells us that just as some people still ride horses for fun, none of us ride horses as a primary means of transportation these days. Likewise, some people will have fun driving a car around in the future, but that won’t be the primary means of transportation in x years.   That, my friends, is what I thought of when I saw a horseshoe print in the dust of my Trail. (Hah.)   Well, that and a passage from Harari’s new book.    In a chapter on “Work” he talks about the HUGE shifts in our global economy that will result from the advances in artificial technology.   He tells us: “The benefits for human society are likely to be immense. AI doctors could provide far better and cheaper healthcare for billions of people, particularly for those who currently receive no healthcare at all. Thanks to learning algorithms and biometric sensors, a poor villager in an underdeveloped country might come to enjoy far better healthcare via her smartphone than the richest person in the world gets today from the most advanced urban hospital.   Similarly, self-driving vehicles could provide people with much better transportation services, and in particular reduce mortality from traffic accidents. Today close to 1.25 million people are killed annually in traffic accidents (twice the number killed by war, crime, and terrorism combined). More than 90 percent of those accidents are caused by human errors: somebody drinking alcohol and driving, somebody texting a message while driving, somebody falling asleep at the wheel, somebody daydreaming instead of paying attention to the road. … Self-driving vehicles will never do any of those things. Though they suffer from their own problems and limitations, and though some accidents are inevitable, replacing all human drivers by computers is expected to reduce deaths and injuries on the road by about 90 percent. In other words, switching to autonomous vehicles is likely to save the lives of one million people every year.   It would therefore be madness to block automation in fields such as transport and healthcare just in order to protect human jobs. After all, what we ultimately ought to protect is humans—not jobs. Displaced drivers and doctors will just have to find something else to do.”   Of course, the long-term economic ramifications of all this are beyond the scope of Today’s +1.    Two things I want to focus on.   First: Let’s take a moment to appreciate just how quickly our world is changing and that a lot of the things we take for granted as the peak of sophistication will be viewed, in the not-so-distant future, as a bit like riding a horse.    Second: You know what Harari tells us is the most important quality for us to cultivate (and to teach our children) to prepare for such a rapidly changing world?    Well, he says that “for every dollar and ever minute we invest in improving artificial intelligence, it would be wise to invest a dollar and a minute in advancing human consciousness.”   In short, we need to Optimize.   Let’s.
