President Donald Trump says he'll decide whether or not to attack Iran within the next two weeks. On this week's On the Media, hear why the right is split on what the president should do. Plus, scrutiny on student journalists has intensified.[01:00] Host Brooke Gladstone on the recent narratives forming around the ‘No Kings' protest and President Trump's military parade. Plus, a look at the lie that the left is more politically violent than the right – a falsehood that has emerged in rightwing narratives about ICE being victimized.[14:03] Brooke speaks with Andrew Prokop, senior politics correspondent at Vox, about the bitter divide growing within the MAGA ranks – between the “America First” faction, who advocate against war with Iran and helping Ukraine, and GOP hawks who want Trump to attack. [30:44] Host Micah Loewinger sits down with Gregorio Olivares Gutierrez, a rising junior at the University of Texas Dallas and editor-in-chief of The Retrograde, to discuss his brief tenure as editor-in-chief of his school's official paper, The Mercury. They examine how The Mercury's coverage of a pro-Palestine encampment last spring ignited a chain of events that led to the university firing him and the entire staff, and the de facto shuttering of the paper. Mike Hiestand, Senior Legal Counsel at the Student Press Law Center, on the chilling effect experienced by student journalists across the country after ICE arrested Tufts grad student Rümeysa Öztürk.Statement from Barnard College: "Barnard respects and supports a robust student press. As students present in Butler Library during the disruption have been confirmed to be working as journalists, we have notified them that their interim suspensions have been lifted. As our review continues, we will issue additional notifications as appropriate." Statement from Columbia University: “The interim suspension on the Columbia student journalist was lifted within hours after it was issued once it was determined that the individual was a member of the student press who was covering the protest as a reporter, not a participant in the disruptions to academic activities that were in violation of University policies and Rules. Columbia University continues to strongly believe in the value of a vibrant and independent student press."Statement from University of Texas Dallas: “UT Dallas has always supported student journalists' editorial control and wants to create an environment where they can learn best journalistic practices and follow professional standards and guidelines. For clarification, the former editor was not removed for editorial content, but because he violated student media bylaws. Over the past few months, a group of university faculty, students, and staff has worked together to establish a new advisory committee for student media. Its goals included reviving the campus newspaper and ensuring the staff has necessary resources to operate with the editorial independence critical for student journalists.”UT Dallas Student Media Memo: “Removal of The Mercury Editor-in-Chief” by Lydia LumGregorio Olivares Gutierrez's Appeal to the UT Dallas Student Media Memo regarding his removal Further reading:“Parsing ICE's mixed-up, hard-to-believe assault claims,” by Philip Bump“‘They're Taking Shirly': An Army Sergeant Thought His Family Was Safe.

Send us a textThe suburbs of Frisco, Texas became the backdrop for a chilling murder when Anna Moses, a Russian-born analyst at the University of Texas Dallas, was found shot six times in her garage after failing to show up for work in January 2015. What first appeared to be a robbery gone wrong revealed itself as something far more deliberate.Anna's divorce from Robert "Bob" Moses two years prior had seemingly set her free. She maintained her home, excelled in her career, and was building meaningful connections—romantic and otherwise—at her workplace. But when police discovered a locked letter written in both Russian and English detailing threats made by her ex-husband, the investigation took a dramatic turn.What makes this case particularly fascinating is the constellation of relationships surrounding Anna. From the professor who had given her $46,000 to multiple male admirers who were shocked to learn about each other at her memorial service, Anna lived a compartmentalized life that became fully exposed only in death. Meanwhile, her 20-year-old son Igor's unusually calm reaction to his mother's murder raised eyebrows, especially when he later became the star witness defending his adoptive father at trial.The physical evidence painted a compelling picture: Bob's fresh hand injury, his blood mixed with Anna's in her recovered vehicle, and his unexpected inquiries about her will and insurance policy. But nothing in this case was straightforward. The mysterious missing Taco Bell quesadilla became a central point of contention, potentially disrupting the prosecution's timeline and Bob's guilt.Despite maintaining his innocence and a vigorous defense, Robert Moses was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. Was justice served, or did investigators miss something crucial in their focus on the scorned ex-husband? Listen as we unravel this Texas tragedy where blood ties, financial motives, and broken hearts converge in unexpected ways.What cases from your community have stayed with you? Join the conversation and follow us for more deep dives into Texas true crime stories that rarely make national headlines but reveal profound truths about human relationships.Magic Mind

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas' RINO's, Democrats, and big businesses, especially TAB, often claim that conservative pro-family and decency legislation (those “social” issues) will hurt business in the Lone Star State. However, the last decade has shown the opposite and now two of the world's most renown firms are moving to Texas because of a lack of pro-decency governance. Elon Musk is moving the corporate HQ of the world's preeminent space launch company, SpaceX, and the world's most used messaging service, X.com or Twitter, to Texas. Robert Zimmerman of behindtheblack.com comments on the move in his inimitable style.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Comptroller Glenn Hegar says no revision of the Texas Revenue Estimate is needed.Lt. Gov. Patrick creates special senate committee on Hurricane and Tropical Storm Preparedness, Recovery, and Electricity. Note the “electricity” part – surely to enable a big push back on CenterPoint.Dallas' mayor Eric Johnson told the Republican National Convention that the catalyst for his move to the GOP was because Democrats were silent when BLM setup outside of his home to intimidate his children and wife. “Today's woke Democratic Party is with the criminals, not with the victims. Democrats are good at using safe words, but terrible at building safe neighborhoods and safe cities,” Johnson said.  https://youtu.be/OhJq2UvFlV8?si=Vg1gLQ_Bi6nquU84Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

Une équipe de chercheurs américains et sud-coréens a mis au point une technologie révolutionnaire inspirée de la vision aux rayons X de Superman. Intégrée à un appareil mobile, leur puce innovante pourrait voir à travers une cloison ou à l'intérieur d'un colis. Les chercheurs de l'université du Texas à Dallas et de l'université nationale de Séoul ont développé cette puce d'imagerie capable de "scanner" l'intérieur d'un sac ou de détecter des objets solides à travers un mur. Actuellement, ils travaillent sur sa miniaturisation pour l'intégrer dans un smartphone.La puce émet des signaux de 300 GHz, permettant de localiser tout objet solide à courte portée, entre 2 et 3 centimètres. L'objectif est de respecter la vie privée et de ne pas espionner les voisins à travers les murs. Une future version devrait capturer des images à une distance de 12,5 centimètres, facilitant la détection de petits objets. Cette technologie est similaire à celle utilisée dans les portiques de contrôle des aéroports, qui utilisent des micro-ondes. Le défi actuel consiste à rendre la technologie suffisamment petite pour les appareils mobiles tout en améliorant la qualité des images.Contrairement aux caméras traditionnelles, cette puce ne comprend ni lentille ni optique. Les signaux réfléchis dessinent une image des objets identifiés. À terme, cette technologie pourrait avoir des applications médicales, offrant une nouvelle méthode de visualisation pour des diagnostics précis. Cette avancée représente une étape significative dans le domaine de l'imagerie et pourrait transformer notre utilisation des appareils mobiles, ouvrant la voie à de nouvelles applications pratiques et médicales. Les chercheurs continuent de perfectionner cette puce, promettant des innovations qui pourraient changer notre quotidien. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Multifamily properties are usually apartments, but could be as small as a duplex Banks want stable deals, 90% occupancy for a minimum of 90 days if not longer. ‘Pencils Down' – current environment is less deals, and investors just waiting Phoenix AZ has many good Economic Drivers for a city – entertainment, sports, resorts, events, job growth, corporations moving to Phoenix, livable & affordable city       Guest: John Kobierowski President and CEO ABI Multifamily  https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnkobierowski   https://abimultifamily.com/ ABI Multifamily is a brokerage and advisory services firm that focuses exclusively on apartment investment transactions. The experienced advisors at ABI Multifamily have completed billions of dollars in sales and thousands of individual multifamily transactions. ABI Multifamily incorporates a global approach with regional real estate expertise to successfully complete any multifamily transaction, regardless of size and complexity.   https://neighborhood.ventures/ Neighborhood Ventures is a real estate crowdfunding company that offers ALL the opportunity to be shareholders in our retail & apartment projects.     Notes: Seg 1 ABI Multifamily is a real estate brokerage firm and have a second company that does crowdfunding real estate investment in-house (has 7000 investors, with 1500 active) They have regional offices in the southwest from Arizona to Nevada to Denver Colorado to San Diego CA, and looking to expand into Texas. They are opening new offices but not growing through acquisition They had 150 sales of apartment buildings in 2022 in their real estate brokerage business. John's background is in real estate, as an ASU grad he went to work for a real estate broker. He's very happy to be in Arizona, as the state is pro business and pro growth, and that's a huge asset for any company. They mainly focus on multifamily properties which are typically apartment buildings though it could be any duplex or even four-plex on the smaller side. These are build to rent properties. People have to live somewhere. Lenders - HUD They also work could be bulk homes, senior communities, student living or mixed use property. The last few years has seen a lot of investment in housing apartments from Private Equity and I Buyers like Zillo, or Offer Pad. Real estate lending from banks who are looking for a stream of rental income, at least 50% - 70% need to be occupied. The loan breakdown is 25% down payment and then a 75% loan to value. Banks want stable deals, 90% occupancy for a minimum of 90 days if not longer. Real Estate has many business benefits including tax write offs, expense write offs, different levels of depreciation that can be written off for 29 1/2 years & bonus depreciation to get write off tax benefits sooner. You also have the ability to sell real estate and use a 1031 exchange to buy a like valued property and defer capital gains taxes. Real estate is also a tangible investment with the building and renters providing cash flow. It typically will have upward appreciation in value and can be used as collateral in loans. The last 5 years, money was cheap for investment with low interest rates of 3%. In 2022 interest rates are 6%, which has caused a drop of 30 to 40% of book value of real estate. This could turn into a liquidity event with some owners needing to sell. This is counter with growth and could last for the next 12 to 18 months. ‘Pencils Down' – current environment is less deals, and investors just waiting   Seg 2 ABI Multifamily was started in September 2013 with 5 partners. 2022 was a big year where they had 150 sales of apartment properties. They use the 80/20 build rule of business – what is the top 20% in the industry. The sale negotiation comes down to the difference of bid vs ask on the price. Current real estate investors need to determine their risk tolerance as interest rates are changing. Apartment rental occupancy rates though are high and rent is increasing. The Phoenix Market in 2023 will have very high demand and builders are not keeping up. Builders expect to build 12,000 units in 2023, which is the highest ever and still not enough. Mortgage rates in the last year have gone from 2.75% to 7% - costs more to get a home Arizona real estate market has always been cyclical with cycles lasting 10 years. Currently the Federal Reserve is looking to push the US economy into a recession to lower inflation. They are doing this by raising interest rates. Still Arizona property values and home values continue to go up. Historically during inflation hard assets like real estate go up in value. California is a tough state to run a real estate business as there are rent controls. Basically a landlord cannot raise rent prices. ABI is looking to expand especially in the Sun Belt southwest region. This region of the company country has been growing for 20+ years. Currently ABI has offices in Phoenix Tucson San Diego Denver Las Vegas and Reno Nevada. They are looking to open offices in Texas. ABI Multi is not moving into Florida as there are weather risks like hurricanes which affect property insurance.   Seg 3 Denver, CO seeing real estate growth with more high-rise buildings. Sun Belt is seeing real estate expansion, especially in Texas – Dallas, San Antonio and Houston. In state migration (people moving to a state) - Arizona's #1, Texas #2, Florida #3 Deal competition is tighter, if you were selling a building in 2021 you could get 30 offers, in 2022 you get 5 offers. The Fed is trying to use interest rates to drive inflation down to 2%. There is a lot of uncertainty which is hard for a business. Previewing inventory in 2024, expected to be tight. Cost of capital will go down. Looking at exit cap rates for selling properties. The terminal capitalization rate, also known as the exit rate, is the rate used to estimate the resale value of a property at the end of the holding period. The expected net operating income (NOI) per year is divided by the terminal cap rate (expressed as a percentage) to get the terminal value. Mortgage rates are based more on the 10 year treasury & Frannie and Fannie Mae set the loan rate. Loans from other lenders like Insurance companies may be higher. Market factors are some of the largest driving forces behind mortgage rates. The Federal Reserve, bond market, Secured Overnight Finance Rate, Constant Maturity Treasury and the health of the economy and inflation all affect mortgage rates. https://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/mortgage-rates/freddie-mac Freddie Mac Mortgage Rates Frequency: Weekly | Data Source: Freddie Mac The Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey® is weekly mortgage rate survey collected by Freddie Mac since April 1971. Lenders from around the country are surveyed each week, from Monday to Wednesday, and the results are released each Thursday at 10 a.m. EST.   Seg 4 Real Estate investment principles, when there's a high cap rate you get a lender, when there's a lower cap rate you sell. From: https://www.rocketmortgage.com/learn/cap-rate   Cap rates are measures used to estimate and compare the rates of return on multiple commercial or residential real estate properties. In this article, we're focusing on residential rental real estate – homes with one to four units – held for commercial, or investment, purposes.   Cap rates are calculated by dividing the property's net operating income (NOI) by its property asset value.   Cap rates can provide valuable insight into a property. But the cap rate is not the only metric used to evaluate a real estate investment. Investors will also want to consider the return on investment (ROI), internal rate of return (IRR) and gross rent multiplier (GRM), as well as a variety of other factors, including the property's individual characteristics and location.   Banks as well as investors are always analyzing the leverage ratio. Construction rates are high, because of workers pay, labor cost never goes down. Overall typically business costs don't come down. The lumber supply chain issue and 2020 was a rarity. Classic arbitrage trades, where you trade between markets are not as available. Mean Reversion where the market catches up and profitable deals are not there. The market equalizes with the cost of materials, and compression in land costs. As an example there was big money in home flipping in 2010. You could go to an auction and there would be 1000 houses for sale. With so much competition and bidders the costs went up and the buyer market squeezed because of competition. Competition squeezes out profits in a market. Any time you're selling something and there's only a 1 buyer market, you get crushed. We have seen this recently with a used car market. When demand is low in a market, the business has to sit and maintain the costs of their supply – carrying costs. Real Estate Investors have to understand numerous factors when looking at a property – builders, profiles, comps vs other properties, operating cost, rental capacity & occupancy rate. Working in hotel sector of real estate is very difficult, and different from managing a rental property. The hospitality industry was crushed during 2020 with Covid. Now hotels and the travel industry seem to be doing well. Phoenix Arizona is a good example of a city to invest in, as there is a lot going on. People want to move here, job growth, corporations moving to Phoenix, and it is also a very livable & affordable city with lots of events, sports, entertainment, resorts and golf. When looking for places to expand in business or real estate you look for these types of economic drivers. Phoenix, AZ also is business friendly, and has good regulations – pro growth and pro business.         Real Estate Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Real+Estate-Construction-Land-Farming   Investing Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/investing More - BRT Best of: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+Of     Thanks for Listening.

Happy August! Last week, we started to get into how our upbringing affects the way we view relationships, so it only makes sense to dive deeper this week into how culture shapes our entire lives and beliefs. As a Nigerian-American, I grew up between the crossroads of two different worlds, or as today's guest would call it, the realities and stories of having a hyphenated identity. In this week's episode, I chat with Phoebe Omonira to discuss empathy, growing gains and pains, leading generational shifts, establishing boundaries, navigating mental health support amongst stigma in the West African community, practicing mutual respect, and unlearning self-limiting beliefs.  We talk about how parents and teenagers can coexist in a healthy way and try to understand the imposter syndrome that comes from growing up in two very different cultures. From anti-Blackness coded in language to not feeling Black enough in predominantly Black or white spaces, this episode tells the stories we wish we knew of growing up.  Culture is a gift; there are so many things that we are grateful for...but there are also many areas for growth and improvement.Our childhood homes are the first places where we learn about how to be. Talking about problems in our families is typically seen as disrespectful, but it's only by discussing ways we want things to change for generational progress to happen. If family is a sensitive topic for you, I hope that this episode can bring you comfort and peace. None of us chose to be born, but the choices we make in our lives can lead us to the most incredible joys and discoveries. Sending everyone lots of love and light, regardless of your family situation!! Learn more about our guest: Phoebe Omonira is an 18-year-old using her voice to raise awareness about the importance of empathy as the key to reducing inequality. Her advocacy work regarding empathy is centered around creating resources for kids and their grown-ups, working with the Center for Children's Brainhealth of the University of Texas Dallas has been a great joy for her. She will be attending Southern Methodist University in the Fall of 2021 and double majoring in International Studies and Human Rights with a minor in Philosophy on the Pre-Law Track. Her children's book on empathy, Ollie the Elephant, is coming out in 2022. She is currently the Director of Community Outreach at Gen Z Girl Gang, where she works to redefine sisterhood for a new generation. **This episode was recorded in March.

We had a fun and almost PG conversation with singer, songwriter, and host of 20@10 with Nat, Natalie Price. Natalie attended the University of Texas Dallas to study graphic design and soon after landed a job in Austin, but graphic design and photography gave way to open mics, and Natalie began to hone her songwriting and performing skills with a commitment to the craft of music. She was ready when paths crossed with musician and producer, Brian Douglas Phillips, which led to recording her first batch of songs at his studio, Rattletrap Audio. Her 2019 debut EP, Through the Fog, is a culmination of her musical upbringing in church, a love for singing, and the discovery of a passion to write songs and "express truth through music". In 2020 she released a "pandeMe" single and began a livestream interview series featuring live music along with conversation with her guests. She has now streamed nearly 200 episodes of 20@10 with Nat, and is busy writing and preparing to record her first full-length album. Natalie is also member of the prestigious 11:59 songwriting group along with such prolific and respected Austin-based musicians as our former guest, Ray Prim. Initial inspiration from church hymns later resonated with an eclectic mix of pop and rock. Muse, 'Butterflies and Hurricanes', and Radiohead, 'OK Computer', are cited as two highly influential "mind blowing" albums in particular. From Pedro the Lion to Nickelback, Isreal Nash to Taylor Swift, we discuss several bands and band names along with influences, current listening. Presidents, Garfield, favorite wars, religion, flying cockroaches, fragile minds of youth, and the horrors of frat boys explaining organisms to innocent college girls in the hopes of whisking them away to a land of "spring break country"are some other topics of discussion. Also, Mexican sunburn (or lack thereof), and Mexican food... the real deal stuff like Panchos. Raise the flag! The conversation of universal mathematics, music and subjectivity re-emerges and Natalie proposed the question "is love mathematical?" In regards to music "it's not mathematical the way it makes you feel" and "beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the ear of the listener."

It makes no sense at first: a band of heroes, Led by an old man with a bolo tie, Who saved a world that was not worth saving. There's nothing for it then but to explain. Perhaps for most of you it's history, But there's a right way and a wrong way To tell a story, and this on is epic. Thus begins Fredrick Turner's modern science fiction epic, Apocalypse. It's the third sci-fi epic he has written and like Homer, Virgil, Milton, and Dante before him, he has written them in verse. Dr. Turner is a poet, a cultural critic, a playwright, a philosopher of science, an interdisciplinary scholar, an aesthetician, an essayist and a translator, as well as the author of 28 books, including Natural Classicism: Essays on Literature and Science; Rebirth of Value: Meditations on Beauty, Ecology, Religion and Education; and Epic: Form, Content, and History.  Dr. Turner, now retired Professor of Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Texas Dallas, delivered a lecture here at Wyoming Catholic College.  While he was in Lander, Dr. Turner was kind enough to join us for a podcast interview. Dr. Turner's lecture can be found here.

Gary has led the Office of Sustainability at UT Dallas since 2018 with previous sustainability experience in higher education and municipal government. He is responsible for facilitating the integration of sustainability into campus stewardship, student life, administration, and student learning. UTD, as well as universities across the nation and the world, track the effectiveness of sustainability programs according to the Sustainability Tracking Assessment and Rating System (STARS Report) administered by the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE). As UTD’s sustainability program has grown in recent years, UT Dallas earned AASHE STARS Gold certification for sustainability in 2019 for the first time in school history. For continued progress, Gary advocates for greater emphasis on the connection between environmental stewardship and social justice, and has adopted the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals as the basis for sustainability education and service so that students better understand the connection between our society and the environment. Gary believes that sustainability is a transdisciplinary field to which all members of the UTD community can contribute, and he is always happy to grab a cup of coffee, even virtually, to discuss ideas for collaboration. https://www.utdallas.edu/sustainability/contact/ https://nexuspmg.com/

Will there be a 2020-21 NCAA Division III basketball season? If so what will it look like? What will the post-season look like? It is on the mind of student-athletes, coaches, administrators, parents, and fans for several weeks, if not months, now. We are finally understanding what it may look like as a number of decisions or proposals are now making their way around Division III. In this month's podcast, Dave McHugh not only downloads all the things being considered and the likely outcomes, but tries to give listeners an understanding of how much is still unknown despite some things becoming more clear. McHugh also talks to Texas-Dallas women's basketball coach Polly Thomason for her take. Thomason has been in the Division III Women's Basketball National Committee for several years and is this season's chair of the committee. She also serves on the WBCA Board of Governors. Thomason not only provides her perspective on much of what is going on not only in Division III, but in women's basketball as well. And of course, there is always the Hoopsville Notebook. Unfortunately, there is some sad news in the Notebook this month, but also news to celebrate especially when it comes to DIII alums making news in the NBA. Hoopsville broadcasts from the WBCA/NABC Studio. All guests are featured on the BlueFrame Technology Hoopsville Hotline. The offseason plan is to do a podcast each month. The shows will be audio-only leading up to the start of the 2020-21 when we will restart the video shows.

We can only be grateful in the moment and that moment ties us to the ability to be in the present.Key Takeaways:When do coaches tune into their intuition? For an experienced coach, it happens with hello. Listening and sensing in a physical sense who the person is and who they are being.Always set an intention to be fully present for your client.Some people just need a safe space and someone listening without judgment so they can think their ideas through out loud.Device withdrawal: take time to disconnect and be present.People want and need a personal connection.

What makes women hold back when it comes to not just starting out in STEM roles, but sticking with them? What do women need to know when entering a career in technology? How can women learn to support each other and being each other advocates vs. the opposite? These are just some of the things that we addressed in this month’s Women in Technology Leadership Live Recording. We welcomed Dr. Dawn Owners, Director of the BS ITS Program at the Jindal School of Management at University of Texas - Dallas, and we had a completely candid conversation about the landscape of women in technology, and what can be done to help bring more women in, support them, and guide them to leadership roles. There was a lot of discussion about what makes women different, which was so refreshing, considering we may feel like we’re going on this career journey alone. Plus this is a great listen for men because it can help to understand the differences, and if you see a rockstar woman on your team, what you can do to support her career. 1:35 - Dr. Owens shares her journey from tech into teaching 3:10 - Why she stayed in a role for over 13 years, the keys to the job that kept her engaged and going 5:20 - How she finally got the courage to start applying for new jobs and getting outside of her comfort zone 7:25 - How have the students change since when she first started teaching until now 8:10 - Dr. Owens advice for kids who are thinking about college early on in high school 8:50 - How do we get over the barrier of the myth that IT just means programming (because programming is what can detour women from joining technology roles) 11:50 - Now that we’re getting more women into technical programs, but how do we now avoid the drop-off in technology roles 13:10 - One of the biggest reasons why women stay out of engineering 15:30 - What advice would Dr. Owens give to a student who is getting encouraged to take on roles that they’re great at, but maybe not something that they want to do 15:50 - Why women make better leaders in STEM roles 17:25 - What would Dr. Owens recommend to people are more like introverts but want to move into a leadership role 19:10 - The discussion of women not having each other’s back - and how we are our own worst enemy, and how do we begin to change that? 22:30 - Has social media made women helping other women better or has it made it worse? 23:55 - What we can do to be the solution vs. add to the problem 26:45 - What are some other routes that women can take in technology that fit a more extroverted personality 28:35 - Should women approach roles to fit into a man’s world vs. understanding women’s needs and working toward fulfilling those. And yes, in this conversation we talk balance 33:05 - Was there ever a challenge when trying to find a balance in work/life? 36:10 - How do we get more women to step into leadership roles within technology 38:55 - Confidence and knowing where you want to go is great, but what happens if you’re not quite sure where exactly you want to go? 40:35 - What are the differences in the generations in how they see gender or is it still similar? 43:10 - Is awareness fragility, and how should this be addressed in technical roles

Doctor Alejandra Gonzalez is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Texas-Dallas that works in the fields of neurotechnology. She currently focuses on how she can develop graphing fibers that have better electrochemical properties for implantable devices. Top Three Takeaways: Her team is creating graphing fibers without good electrochemical properties and good mechanical properties to use as electrical interfaces in peripheral nerves. Conventional electrodes have charge capacities that range from 0.05-0.2 mC per centimeter squared, and conventional graphing fibers have one of 300 mC per centimeter squared. She mentions how it sometimes is difficult to combine the fields of neurology and engineering. Show Notes: [00:00] Ladan introduces the episode from a recent neural engineering conference he attended in March of 2019. [1:15] Alejandra Gonzalez introduces herself from University of Texas-Dallas as a postdoctoral fellow. The poster covers the fabrication of high performance of graphing electrodes for the use of interfaces. [1:45] Her team is creating graphing fibers without good electrochemical properties and good mechanical properties to use as electrical interfaces in peripheral nerves. [2:10] Conventional electrodes have charge capacities that range from 0.05-0.2 mC per centimeter squared, and conventional graphing fibers have one of 300 mC per centimeter squared. [2:35] Metallic coatings have been added to the fibers to improve their charge capacities to 940 mC per centimeter squared. [3:00] The design of Gonzalez’s fibers reduce impedance and improve electrical flow. [3:25] The fibers can be in thinner than 20 micrometers in diameter. [4:00] Gonzalez pictures this technology being used as cuffs around peripheral nerves. [4:30] She mentions how it sometimes is difficult to combine the fields of neurology and engineering.

Welcome to Episode 19 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. This is the third of our eight postseason regional preview podcasts -- this one focuses on the 6-team West Regional which will take place in Spokane, WA. We break down each of the six teams. In order: #1 Chapman (at 1:44) After an enormous statement in the SCIAC championship game, can the Panthers live up to the #1 seed and make it to Appleton? #6 Willamette (at 4:12) The Bearcats have had a lot of time off since winning the NWC title; how far can Connor Bailey and Matt Steindorf take them? #2 Redlands (at 6:14) Perhaps the most balanced all-around team in the West, the Bulldogs will look to avenge their disappointing conference tournament with a strong regional showing #5 Texas-Dallas (at 9:20) The Comets got hot at the right time, and are ready to try and outscore any and all opponents #3 Concordia-Texas (at 11:42) The numbers don't jump off the page, but there are many reasons to fear the Tornados in a regional setting #4 Texas Lutheran (at 15:14) The Bulldogs have felt like a team of destiny all year long; Riley Schaefer/Tyler Cauley + Dylan Drgac/Nathan Malinovsky = goooooooood baseball team.  We conclude with our top players and pitchers to watch, and our pick to punch their ticket to Appleton (at 19:40). Then we say goodbye. Thanks for listening!

Over the last eight years, Gabriel has installed temporary or permanent works in over 35 private and public institutions worldwide, including the Smithsonian Museum’s Renwick Gallery, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the Amon Carter Museum of American Art where his Plexus 34 is on display in the Philip Johnson designed space until September 2, 2018I recently sat down with Gabriel at his Dallas studio where we discussed his childhood in Mexico, his grandmother’s influence, his life as a graphic designer in Canada, the importance of Centraltrak, experimenting with glass, and his discomfort with heights.

Gabriel Dawe is a Mexican-born artist living in Dallas who utilizes miles of vibrantly-colored sewing thread to create soaring installations that evoke a sense of viewing rays of light. The breadth of his work revolves around the use of sewing and embroidery materials to explore issues of pain, equality and gender roles, but it’s his highly popular Plexus series of installations that has garnered him acclaim worldwide. Gabriel obtained a bachelor’s degree from the Universidad de las Americas in Puebla, Mexico before moving to Montreal to pursue a career in graphic design.

It's not a tour. That's the first thing that Dave Mays, this week's guest on SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, wants you to know about p1440, of which he is a founding partner. It is many different things with many different meanings. Take, for example, the name itself. The 1440 is assured: It represents the 1,440 minutes we all have per day. But the p? Platform seems to be the most popular word for it, though, as Mays says, it's up to your own interpretation. It could be purpose. Or power. Or people. Or whatever word that starts with ‘p' you'd like to use to represent how you'd like to use your 1,440 minutes in a day. Would you like to use it to strengthen your relationship with people? People it is. Or strengthening your mind, body and soul? Power it is. That sort of the point: p1440, and how you spend your minutes, is up to you. To some, yes, that means it's a beach volleyball tour or league, and currently, there are eight events on the schedule, which bridges 2018 and 2019. The first four are set – Chicago in September, with Huntington Beach, San Diego and San Jose to follow – while the next four, which will be held in early 2019, are in limbo, though the sites have been whittled down to a few catchy options. There's Vegas – Vegas! – a major city in Texas (Dallas and Houston, namely), Miami, Hawaii. An ambitious start. An exciting start. And that hardly scratches the surface, for each event is not just a beach volleyball tournament. It is, as Kerri Walsh-Jennings, a co-founder along with her husband, Casey Jennings, and Mays, has taken to saying: “Part Wanderlust, part Coachella, part beach volleyball league.” Each event, tantamount to the World Series of Beach Volleyball, will feature a tournament, but it will also serve as a music festival of sorts, replete with concerts and fanfare and everything you'd expect of the triumvirate Walsh-Jennings mentioned. How, you may be wondering, can an upstart tour fund eight events while also doubling as a music festival? Beach volleyball has been a notoriously volatile space in the market, in spite of the sport itself growing every year, to the point that more girls play volleyball than soccer or track and field or basketball. For females, it's the most popular sport in the country. And yet nobody has been able to monetize the market in a sustainable enough fashion for it to work. The business model has remained the same since a company named Event Concepts began putting on professional events in 1976. They'd find a sponsor – Schlitz Beer was the first – or many sponsors, to throw in money, and that money would then be translated into prize money, which would draw talent and a crowd to watch that talent. Sponsors would be happy because they got the eyeballs they wanted, players would be happy because they got the prize money they wanted. And so it went. Until, of course, the tabs being run up by the tour were too hefty for the sponsors to cover, and one gigantic failure led to the next. Event Concepts was booted in 1984, thanks to a player protest at the World Championships of Beach Volleyball, and in came the AVP, an organization led by the players and a young, savvy agent named Leonard Armato. The AVP changed hands in 1990, when Armato was replaced by Jeff Dankworth, who in 1994 was replaced by Jerry Solomon, whose gross mishandling of the finances led to a bankruptcy, only for the AVP to be revived by – who else? – Armato in 2001. Nine years later it was bankrupt again, and in 2012, Donald Sun took over and put on a pair of events, and since then he has done a fine job of steadying the frighteningly tenuous heartbeat of beach volleyball, increasing prize money and events and introducing a “Gold Series” and putting the sport back on television. And yet the business model remains relatively the same, though there are certainly various nuances, as 1976: sponsor-driven. “If we were to start a new pro beach volleyball tour tomorrow, we would fail,” Mays says on SANDCAST. “So that's why we're not starting a pro beach volleyball tour. We're taking the sport of volleyball and we're celebrating it, what works and what doesn't. We're applying some principles of what have worked and what do work, to this.” And here is where the differentiation between p1440 and the AVP Tour begins. p1440 will charge a $40 gate fee, every tournament. The AVP allows its fans, which pack stadiums, for free, though there are paid box seats. But the entry gate will hardly be the chief source of revenue for p1440. That's where the “platform” comes in. Above all else, above volleyball and music and entertainment, p1440 is built upon four pillars: competition, development, health and wellness, entertainment. The platform, an online resource featuring myriad digital media, will host webinars, coaching, nutrition, live clinics – any type of wellness resource you might need, be it mental, spiritual or physical. It's not live yet – it is scheduled to launch in July – and until 2021, it will not be monetized. The content will be entirely free, with the goal of reaching 4 million subscribers by 2021, by which point a subscription fee will be required. No numbers are for sure in terms of the subscription fee, but on SANDCAST, there was a $5 estimate. If p1440 hits its goal of 4 million subscribers at $5 a month, you can do the math – $20 million in revenue per month from the platform alone. If successful – an admittedly large “if” in this sport – the subscription model answers, in part, where the prize money and funding for the tour will stem from. Which leads to the next inevitable question: Who will be receiving those paychecks? Mays, who built and sold a shipping business for a not-so-small fortune and was looking for a new project to work on, thinks it's no question at all: p1440 will feature the finest talent in beach volleyball, and not only because there will be more prize money – he gave no definitive figure on what the breakdown will be, only that it will be more – but there will be more talent. The failure to retain the game's highest talent led to the breakdown of the NVL. Players want to play against the best, which was why, when Sun revived the AVP in 2012, and the top players returned, the NVL lost momentum and, eventually, financial backing. The best currently play on the AVP and FIVB tours. There will be a battle over loyalty, the AVP's non-compete (p1440 has no exclusivity clause in its contract), and, when it comes down to it, prize money and sponsors. Mays intends on bringing in the best, not only in this country, but overseas. Each tournament will feature a 24-team main draw. Sixteen of those teams will be Americans automatically seeded in. Four will come out of the qualifier. And four will be international wild cards. Want to play against the best? p1440 could have Alison and Bruno, or Evandro and Andre, or Nicolai and Lupo. For the women, it could be Ludwig and Walkenhorst, Agatha and Duda, Talita and Larissa. Walsh's reach, even if she has been on the peripherals of the game as a player lately, is still extensive. You don't win three gold medals and suddenly lose all of your contacts. Those players mentioned will be available, too, for Mays and Walsh-Jennings and Casey Jennings have made it a point to schedule around the AVP as well as four- and five-star FIVBS. The plan is to have the best in the world, playing for the best prize money in the game, with some music and entertainment to cap the night. It's a lot. It's big. It's potentially transformative. It might work, it might not. That's part of the excitement around this movement. And maybe that all sounds a bit crazy, though it is worth reminding that the most successful ideas and businesses were, at one point or other, invariably labeled “crazy.” As Walsh-Jennings wrote on Instagram: “It's go time.”                                               

Welcome to Episode 2 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. This is the first of our eight regional preview podcasts -- this one focuses on the West region, AKA the region that has weather nice enough to start their seasons in early February. First, we lay out the obvious disclaimers and caveats about whatever flaming hot takes we present about teams in the West -- mainly that we haven't seen any of these teams, so we're giving the most educated and researched insight we can give based on the information we've got. We discuss the strongest regional contenders from each of the four West conferences -- the ASC, the NWC, the SCAC, and the SCIAC. First (at 4:14), we talk about the favorites in the ASC, and why we love Texas-Dallas this year (despite their inconveniently timed 0-2 start!). Next (at 11:03), we discuss the teams of the beautiful Pacific Northwest, AKA the NWC, and whether any other teams have what it takes to take on Linfield. Next (at 16:36), we discuss the SCAC and Centenary's chances to dominate the region (especially after their hot start). We then head to California (at 22:54) to discuss the favorites way out west, including that purple and gold team that may or may not have won the national championship last year. Finally (at 31:10), we run through some other notable players to watch in the West, before giving our official TEAM TO BEAT and our Player and Pitcher of the Year.  Thanks for listening!

It is already the midway point of January. In a month's time, we will be looking at conference tournaments and discussing who has a chance to make the NCAA tournaments. However, there is still a lot of basketball to be played and many teams are starting to take the turn into the second half of conference play. On Thursday's edition of Hoopsville, Dave will chat with a number of guests to get a landscape of where things are in Division III. The conversation will include checking in at the NCAA Convention where legislation will be voted on by DIII members and conferences on whether to start the season a week earlier. Dave then talks to some of the hotter teams in the country. Two women's programs (ranked and unranked) who are leading their respective conferences and looking to build on recent success. Also two men's programs one of which is not in the spotlight as much as they traditionally are along with a program we haven't talked to in a number of years. This week's WBCA Center Court will feature a women's coach who is doing what she can to spread the word about women's basketball including giving more of her time to make sure her colleagues are taken care of and heard. Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com and airs from the WBCA/NABC Studio. You can send your questions to the show and have them featured on the Hoopsville Mailbag segment. Email them to hoopsville@d3hoops.com. Guests include (in order of appearance): - James Wagner, CSAC Assistant Commissioner - Bobby Hurley, Stevens men's coach - Kris Huffman, No. 9 DePauw women's coach - Polly Thomason, Texas-Dallas women's coach (WBCA Center Court) - Matt Logie, No. 7 Whitworth men's coach - Ashlee Rogers, Marymount women's coach

First up, Kevin Harvell of STL Tech Talk and Tech Informist joins the show to discuss tech and phones and Producer Bobby's love of hating the iPhone (errr wait....yep thats sort of correct).  But he also jumps in to give his opinion on the big story out of McKinney, Texas (Dallas) where a pool party goes awry and the police are called in.  All of which is fine as long as you are not one specific cop and his Lethal Weapon-esque style all caught on camera.  The guys discuss the implications and the racial inequality discussion that came out after the fact.Then we switch gears and talk with Gerogia Page calling in from Australia.  Georgia put on the black and gold for Lindenwood Unversity (Mark's Alma Mater) and played Womens Rugby....which eventually led to her showing how dominate and tough she is through ESPN replaying her clip over and over in their Top Ten plays. Georgia takes a massive hit and keeps on trucking.  We talk with her about the sport of womens rugby and Vegemite.Finally Mark goes all in discussing soccer in the midwest and specifically the attitude of fans in 2015 with regard to soccer in the US.  This brings up the attempts by some to bring Soccer back to prominence in the STL and Mark hits them all with a strong dose of reality only he can deliver.

Dr David Miller talks to ecancer at the 2012 International Gynaecologic Cancer Society meeting in Vancouver about the GOG 209 study and drug regimens for endometrial cancer. Standard treatment of endometrial cancer usually involves a surgical treatment, as well as chemotherapy. However, in 20-30 percent of patients, where surgery is not possible, advanced endometrial cancer treatment focuses more on chemotherapy and biological therapies. The GOG 209 study looked to simplify treatment of advanced endometrial cancer, which consists of the three drug regimen of paclitaxel, doxorubicin and cisplatin. This course offered a clear survival advantage but has high toxicity and does not allow for use with targeted therapies. In a trial testing carboplatin and paclitaxel, normally used in ovarian cancer, it was discovered that this treatment was as useful as the three drug course, but less toxic. This result now opens the possibility for inclusion of targeted therapy as well.
