Podcasts about VPG

What does it take to grow from a Craigslist rental to a $100 million real estate portfolio—and still stay true to your values?In this episode, we sit down with Michael Merideth, co-founder and CEO of VPG Enterprises in New Orleans. A former petroleum engineer and minor league baseball player, Michael's journey into real estate began with a bold leap—and a belief that his community deserved better. With fraternity brothers turned co-founders, he bootstrapped VPG from envelope-stuffing side hustle to one of the nation's fastest-growing real estate firms.We explore the mechanics behind that rise: creative financing, vertical integration, and building trust in a historically insular market. Michael shares the power of partnerships, how to spot a real opportunity, and what it means to do deals that make a difference. He also opens up about today's headwinds facing Black-owned businesses, and how he's evolving while staying rooted in mission.Whether you're building your first fourplex or scaling to institutional capital, this episode is a masterclass in grit, vision, and legacy.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyVPG Enterprises: vpgenterprise.comRead: Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert KiyosakiBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

En el programa de hoy conversamos con Diego Petersen Farah –periodista y escritor en Jalisco– acerca de los hechos que el fiscal estatal de Jalisco, Luis Joaquín Méndez Ruiz, informó esta mañana acerca de que el periodista Jaime Barrera habría sido víctima de privación de la libertad, de forma violenta. Presuntamente, el secuestro ocurrió este 11 de marzo poco después de las dos de la tarde, luego de que el periodista abandonara la radiodifusora donde laboraba. Platicamos con Napoleón Gómez Urrutia –senador de Morena– sobre la revisión por parte del presidente Andrés Manuel López Obrador y el senador y líder minero Napoleón Gómez Urrutia, de las iniciativas prioritarias para esta administración, como la de pensiones, que los salarios no estén por debajo de la inflación y de vivienda para los trabajadores. Gómez Urrutia consideró que los cambios constitucionales planteados cambiarán mucho en el futuro del país, una vez que sean aprobadas, lo que podría ocurrir en la siguiente legislatura.Conversamos con Lenin Ocampo –reportero de “El Sur de Guerrero”– sobre los estudiantes de la Normal Rural de Ayotzinapa que se manifestaron frente a la Fiscalía General del Estado (FGE) de Guerrero después de que se fugara el policía que acusado de matar al normalista Yanqui Khotan Gómez. En un comunicado, la Fiscalía de Guerrero informó que el policía nunca estuvo detenido. Los manifestantes incendiaron una decena de vehículos y por estos hechos, habrían resultado lesionados 12 elementos de la Guardia Nacional. Continuamos la conversación con Rodrigo Galván –director de "De Las Heras"– para platicar acerca del productor y simpatizante de Morena, Epigmenio Ibarra, quien calificó a la candidata a la presidencia por la coalición Fuerza y Corazón por México, Xóchitl Gálvez como un personaje y le adjudicó el adjetivo de “esperpento”. Ibarra comete una de las agresiones que se incluyen en las guías de identificación de violencia política de género (VPG) pues cuenta como una agresión psicológica al tratarse de una burla y ridiculización por sus actos y forma de ser.Conversamos con Antonio Juárez –abogado del Dr. Gustavo Aguirre– acerca del proceso jurídico que enfrenta el anestesiólogo Gustavo Darwin Aguirre Castro, sentenciado a cuatro años de prisión, acusado por la Fiscalía General de la República (FGR) por delitos contra la salud por comprar fentanilo y otras drogas para suministrarlas a pacientes. El caso de Aguirre Castro derivó en movilizaciones de médicos en distintas ciudades del país que le mostraron su respaldo, mientras que el Colegio de Medicina Interna de México denunció en un pronunciamiento que fue víctima de “arbitrariedad” y “hostigamiento”. Nos enlazamos en llamada con el Padre Mario Ángel Flores –Director del Observatorio del Episcopado Mexicano– acerca de los candidatos a la presidencia de México, Xóchitl Gálvez (Fuerza y Corazón por México) y Jorge Álvarez Máynez (Movimiento Ciudadano), así como la de Morena, PVEM y PT, Claudia Sheinbaum, firmaron este lunes el Compromiso por la Paz, 117 iniciativas enfocadas a combatir la violencia propuestas por la Conferencia del Episcopado Mexicano (CEM).Programa transmitido el 12 de marzo de 2024.

Tried something new, so the episode is broken into chapters or "acts" in the notes here and in the episode. I provide a brief explanation at the beginning of the episode highlighting this attempt, so hopefully it works well.Act I - Setting Sail (4:40)Maybe not the most apt title, unless Alan and I are Imperialist targets for Captain Nemo. Nonetheless, Alan talks about how Nemo's War came to be and his subsequent integration of history on the narrative of the game.Act II - Taking Over the Helm (28:50)Another slight misnomer, as Alan was always at the helm of VPG, but here he shares a powerful story of what it meant to be given design control for the second edition and beyond. Additionally, we talk about the scope of the stories different games tell and how they're adapted in different ways from the source material.Act III - Twenty-Eight Games in a Year & A Ten Table Game (41:47)Pretty self explanatory! In one year, Alan developed and published twenty-eight games. Alan also shares some information about a current project and the different ways that war/history games present themselves.Act IV - 4X (&5X) (52:27)Being able to talk to the person who coined the term 4x, I had a few questions!Act V - Finalés D(eveloping) and E(diting) (58:08)Alan discusses why he's drawn to the process of editing and developing; he provides some stories of collaborations as well.Epilogue - Explore Motive Triumph (1:05:03)Final discussion and a mentioning as to how Ian O'Toole became a part of the project.Check out the Ship's Logs mentioned on the episode (seriously- they're so good).Contact me at vodthepod@gmail.com or my Instagram with the same name.

El 6 de junio de 1944 ha quedado escrito en la Historia de la Humanidad como uno de los días más importantes del siglo XX. En las playas de Normandía tuvo lugar una de las batallas decisivas de la II Guerra Mundial, aquella que lograría abrir el frente occidental a los aliados y obligaría a la Alemania nazi a replegarse aún más. Muchos historiadores lo marcan como el punto de inflexión para la definitiva caída del III Reich. Por ello, hoy abrimos un nuevo episodio sobre historia que va a estar dividido en dos partes. Por un lado nos centraremos en los hechos históricos de aquel 6 de junio y analizaremos cómo se gestó la operación, cómo plantearon la batalla aliados y alemanes y cuales fueron los puntos clave del enfrentamiento. Tras el intermedio pasaremos a un aspecto más lúdico y nuestro amigo Claudio Yoldi nos comentará los wargames más destacados sobre El desembarco de Normandía. Un episodio especial para una fecha especial en homenaje a aquellos valientes que se enfrentaron a la muerte para luchar por la libertad en Europa.

Tromsøværingen Nikolai Schirmer (32) er en av verdens beste frikjørere, og har klart kunstverket å tjene til livets opphold av YouTube. Her publiserer han og teamet hans filmer av ypperste kvalitet i en en hyppighet store mediehus bare kan drømme om. Nikolai er affiliert med Norrøna, Black Crows, VPG, Polestar, Julbo Eyewear, Dynafit, Moonlight Mountain Gear og OpenSnow.Episodesponsor: UrkraftTusen hjertelig takk til Urkraft som er med på å holde NEDA-sjappa åpen. Beta-oppskrift:Fyll en bolle med Urkraft-havre, to egg, vann, salt, honning, en dæsj gurkemeie, to dæsjer kanel kardemumme. Visp dette sammen til en ganske løs masse, og hell det i en langpanne som er dekket med bakepapir. Denne massen skal dekke hele langpannen og ha en tykkelse på ca 2-4mm tykk. Skru deretter ovnen på 200 grader og la det stå i ca 30 minutter. Kjøkkenet kommer til å bli fylt med en heftig kanel/kardemomme-aroma. La det stå i ovnen til det binder seg og har tatt en brunaktig farge. Ta den ut av ovnen, flipp den opp ned på en rist og skrell av bakepapiret og skjær/klipp den opp i knekkebrød-størrelser. La det ligge og avkjøle seg på rista før du konsumerer eller fryser ned. Jeg bruker å legge de i fryseren og tine de i brødristeren på morgenen til frokost. Det finnes ingenting bedre enn en “beta” med peanøttsmør, bananskiver og en kopp kaffe til frokost. Helt serr. Prøv det.

Zdravo. Za začetek se s cmokanjem spomnimo na iskanje srednje poti sredi Ibize, ki se ni končalo po načrtih. Obnovimo, da so arašidi dobri za medgalaktična potovanja in vsem, ki ste na morju predlagamo poslušanje našega podkasta na zvočniku. Tako, da našo epizodo lahko slišijo tudi vaši dragi sosedje. V drugem delu 5. poglavja knjige Zbogom in hvala za vse ribe o tem, da je Ford v Štoparskem vodniku po Galaksiji našel VSE zapise, ki jih je napisal o Zemlji, preden so jo Vogoni uničili in preden so Fordovo življenjsko delo uredniki skrajšali na samo dve besedi: "Pretežno neškodljiva." Očitno se nekje dogaja nekaj neznansko čudnega, in če se dogaja nekaj neznansko čudnega, bi Ford hotel, da se to dogaja njemu. Na koncu se izkaže, da Zemlja očitno spet obstaja in v tem najde smisel življenja. Za Forda je žur bistvo njegovega obstoja, … ali Fordova (ne tako srednja) pot. Če ste v kampu, ne pozabite na zvočnik.

Aging-US published a Special Collection on Eye Disease which included "Pineal gland volume is associated with prevalent and incident isolated rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder" which reported that pineal gland volume may be associated with the risk of isolated rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD). The authors enrolled 245 cognitively normal elderly individuals without major psychiatric or neurological disorders at the baseline evaluation and 2-year follow-up evaluation. The smaller the baseline pineal glands volume, the more severe the RBD symptoms at baseline. The individuals with isolated rBD showed smaller pineal gland volumes than those without isolated pRBD. Dr. Ki Woong Kim from The Seoul National University College of Natural Sciences, The Seoul National University Bundang Hospital as well as The Seoul National University College of Medicine said, "Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is a parasomnia characterized by the loss of normal skeletal muscle atonia during REM sleep and dream-enacting behaviors." RBD can occur in association with (secondary RBD), or without (isolated RBD) a neurodegenerative disorder such as Parkinson's disease or Lewy body disease. A series of clinical trials found that the symptoms of RBD were improved by N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine (melatonin). In RBD patients, dream-enacting behaviors were reduced and REM sleep muscle atonia were restored by the administration of melatonin. Melatonin is a multifunctioning indoleamine produced by the pineal gland, which regulates sleep and circadian rhythm through its production and synthesis. VPG may predict the risk of developing RBD; they investigated the association of VPG with current RBD symptoms cross-sectionally and with the future risk prospectively in cognitively normal individuals without neurological or psychiatric disorders. The Kim Research Team concluded in their Aging-US Research Output, "the smaller pineal gland was associated with the more current RBD symptoms and the higher future risk of RBD in cognitively normal elderly individuals, and VPP or VPG may be a candidate biomarker of RBD."

Hoy os acercamos Brazilia (1979) del saxofonista y teclista John Klermmer. "Brazilia" está compuesta por 8 temas, de los cuales 7 son originales de Klemmer, más una interesante versión del clásico de Gershwin, "Summertime". En este trabajo trabajo, Klemmer está rodeado por un extraordinario grupo de músicos que incluye a nombres tan importantes como Jorge Dalto, Oscar Castro Neves, Abe Laboriel, Airto Moreira, Lenny White, Michael Brecker, Randy Brecker o Álex Acuña, consiguiendo un resultado que se nos antoja de imprescindible presencia en la discografía de cualquier aficionado al latin, al jazz o a la música brasileña y es por ello que hemos decidido traerlo a VpG.

The Covid-19 pandemic has changed the world we live in, but it's safe to say there have been lots of positives among what has been and continues to be a challenging time for everyone.A glimmer of light within the Wigan Athletic community has been the emergence of eSports Wigan Athletic, our VPG (Virtual Pro Gaming) FIFA 20 pro club, which has united a group of Latics supporters and fellow football fans, spearheaded by Latics fan and YouTuber, Louis Ellis.Louis, or LE96z as he's know to his 111,000 subscribers, was contacted by our media team about representing the club on its first eSports voyage - so in our episode 27 of Latics Listen, he's going to explain exactly what eSports is, exactly how he helped to form our team and exactly how it's benefited a group of like-minded football fans, with a positive impact on mental health.eSports Wigan Athletic compete in the VPG England Partnered English Premier and at the time of recording sit ninth out of 18, having won nine of their opening 21 matches. Be sure to follow the team on Twitter @eSportsWigan for all of the latest updates, with every game streamed live on Mondays, Tuesday and Thursday on the official Wigan Athletic YouTube channel.As is now customary on our Latics Listen episodes, we also asked Louis about his favourite Latics things, which bizarrely finds us listening to a story about a hotel fire, Leighton Baines and an embarrassing Dad - yep, it's as strange as it sounds.Catch this week's episode via SoundCloud above, or find us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Buzzsprout by searching for Latics Listen.If you'd like to feature on a future episode of the podcast or have someone to nominate for a chat with our team, get in touch by emailing laticslisten@wiganathletic.com

If you're spending tons of money on attracting new customers, you're making a huge mistake. Businesses that are growing tend to spend so much of their time and money acquiring new customers that they often overlook their best source of growth: retaining and growing their existing customer base. Believe it or not, it costs five- to 10-times more to acquire a new customer, than it does to keep an existing customer and the best way to retain customers is by promoting customer loyalty. In this episode we discuss: -What is the definition of a loyal customer? - How can you create customer loyalty? - Social media and customer loyalty - Is there really such thing as a satisfied customer? - Under promise and over deliver - Referrals, Referrals, ReferralsTom Shay is a lifelong small business owner and manager and the fourth generation to be involved in the family business.Shay moved to Florida to join his parents in the family operation they had purchased in 1971.

Caliciviren sind kleine, unbehüllte Viren mit einem RNA-Genom positiver Polarität. Die Vertreter der Familie Caliciviridae sind Erreger wichtiger, zum Teil sehr unterschiedlicher Erkrankungen bei Mensch und Tier. Das Feline Calicivirus (FCV) gilt als einer der Haupterreger des Katzenschnupfenkomplexes. Das FCV ist für Replikationsstudien an Caliciviren besonders gut geeignet, da es sich effizient in Zellkultursystemen vermehrt. Da der Replikationszyklus nur zum Teil aufgeklärt ist, wurden in der vorliegenden Arbeit zwei Nichtstrukturproteine des FCV, das Vpg und die RNA-abhängige RNA-Polymerase (3D-Polymerase), näher charakterisiert. Die 3D-Polymerase ist für die Replikation der viralen RNA zuständig. Das Vpg ist ein viruskodiertes Protein, welches kovalent an den 5'-Terminus der genomischen und subgenomischen RNA gebunden ist. Gegen beide Proteine wurden zunächst erfolgreich polyklonale Antikörper generiert. Untersuchungen zur Expressionskinetik ergaben, dass die 3D-Polymerase in einer frühen Phase des Replikationszyklus exprimiert wird. Sie tritt auch beim FCV-Isolat KS20 nur in Verbindung mit der 3C-Protease als sogenanntes 3CD-Vorläuferprotein auf, freie Polymerase ist nicht nachweisbar. Im Gegensatz zur 3D-Polymerase liegt das Vpg-Protein in einer späteren Phase des Replikationszyklus des FCV in freier Form vor. Es wurden für das FCV-Isolat KS20 zwei mögliche Vorläuferproteine von etwa 43 bis 45 kDa und von 25 kDa detektiert, deren Funktion unklar ist. Die 3D-Polymerase und das Vpg wurden nur im Zytopasma der Wirtszelle lokalisiert. Beide induzieren keine neutralisierenden Antikörper. Ferner beschäftigte sich diese Arbei mit der Hypothese, dass das Vpg bei der Transkription der viralen RNA eine Rolle spielt und möglicherweise als Primer für die 3D-Polymerase dient. Zum anderen wurde untersucht, ob das Vpg an der Enkapsidierung der genomischen und subgenomischen RNA in die viralen Partikel beteiligt ist. Zum Nachweis potentieller Wechselwirkungen zwischen den einzelnen Proteinen wurde eine Co-Immunopräzipitation durchgeführt. Bei keinem der untersuchten Proteinpaare konnte eine Interaktion festgestellt werden.
