In today's episode, I am joined by Mark Wharrier, an experienced professional investor who previously worked with companies such as  Mercury and Black Rock and is now focused on investing in public and private companies. We have a fascinating conversation with Ami Daniel, the co-founder and CEO of AIM-listed Windward.Windward is a 14-year-old company that provides B2B data and software solutions. It helps governments and businesses track, manage, comply with, and protect maritime assets worldwide. Its solutions provide awareness and insights into what Ami calls the problem of big oceans and small ships.Windward was listed on AIM in 2021 and is currently valued at £120m. Ami is a high-energy entrepreneur. Having survived a near-death experience while serving in the Israeli Navy in 2006, he has established Windward as a high-growth, recurring revenue company with a large addressable market. Ami is one of life's optimists and a joy to chat with.   In this episode, he discusses the challenges of running an unprofitable growth company, how being told "NO" is only temporary, the importance of building resilience, and why listing in London has been such a positive move for him and the business.  It was great having Mark's experienced approach to guide Ami through the key pillars of Windward's investment case and paint a picture of what Windward could become as it approaches profitability and reinvests in its rapidly growing platform.   I must remind you that this is for information purposes only.

Today's Headlines: The Supreme Court has undermined the Chevron deference, a precedent that allowed federal agencies to enact rules in their areas of expertise. This decision could impact regulations on clean air, water, vehicle safety, emissions, anti-discrimination protections, and consumer rights, shifting power to the judiciary and hindering law enforcement. This ruling is particularly significant as it aligns with Donald Trump's Project 2025 agenda to dismantle the administrative state and favor corporate interests. In another ruling, the Supreme Court favored January 6th rioters by dismissing obstruction charges related to their attempt to stop the 2020 election certification. This decision could affect Donald Trump's own obstruction charges in his criminal indictment. Additionally, the Supreme Court extended its term to decide on Trump's immunity claim regarding election interference. The decision, expected soon, could delay trial proceedings past the election. The Court also upheld an Oregon ban on unhoused individuals sleeping in public spaces, ruling it does not violate the 8th amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment. Meanwhile, Steve Bannon is set to begin a four-month prison sentence for contempt of Congress after the Supreme Court refused to hear his case.On the international front, France's far-right National Rally party, led by Marine Le Pen, is leading in first-round voting, with President Macron's centrist party potentially finishing third behind a new left-wing coalition. Lastly, Hurricane Beryl has rapidly intensified to a category 4 storm, expected to impact Barbados, the Grenadines, St. Vincent, Grenada, and the Windward and Leeward Islands with significant storm surge flooding.

In this episode of the podcast, I dive into the unforgettable spots in Hawaii that make the islands a unique paradise to live on. From personal anecdotes to expert insights, we explore the landscapes and experiences that have left a lasting impression on residents and travelers alike. Join us as we journey through the beauty and diversity of Hawaii. This podcast is your guide to understanding why these spots are etched in the memories of those who experience them and make it so I never tire of living here. East Shore to Windward side Venturing just 15 miles east of Honolulu leads to the serene beginning of Oahu's Windward Coast, stretching to Kahana Bay. Along this picturesque shoreline, abundant trails, beaches, lava tubes, and surf breaks await exploration, offering endless opportunities for hiking and beachcombing. Families often enjoy the paved Makapuʻu Point Lighthouse Trail, while seasoned surfers tackle the challenging waves of Makapuʻu Beach and Sandy Beach.Sherwoods Beach in Waimānalo holds a special place in my heart. Its soft sands, gentle waves, and stunning backdrop of the Ko'olau mountains make it a beloved spot for family outings. After a day by the sea, the journey home is sprinkled with local delights like shave ice, lau lau, and malasadas, adding a flavorful touch to the experience.Further along Windward Oahu, Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach beckon windsurfers and kayakers with their pristine beauty. Kualoa Ranch, a vast 4,000-acre reserve, offers thrilling adventures such as zip lining and horseback riding, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the rich 'āina (land) heritage. And tucked away like a hidden treasure, Sherwood Beach enchants with its gentle waves and panoramic views of the majestic Ko'olau mountains. Upcountry Maui Every time I head to Maui one of my first treks is Upcountry and a visit to Haleakalā National Park. Spanning over 30,000 acres, the park is dominated by a dormant volcano, occupying 75 percent of Maui and soaring to 10,023 feet. Haleakalā is a sanctuary for numerous endangered and indigenous species, its name translating to "House of the Sun" in Hawaiian. Locals revere it as a sacred site where ancient high priests sought wisdom through meditation. Exploring Upcountry Maui, I suggest visiting the Saturday Upcountry Farmers Market in Makawao. Here, you'll discover an array of locally sourced delights, from tropical fruits to artisanal goods and fresh blooms. We always take a trip to Ali'i Kula Lavender Farm, where we stock up on Lavender soap, lotion, and sanitizer and always find something new to bring back to Honolulu that we can't find here. We Podcast About Hawaii Because We Love Hawaii Get Help Planning Your Trip Kauai South Shore The less developed island of Kauai is nicknamed the "Garden Island." Home to one of the wettest spots on Earth, Mount Waialeale, this destination receives a good amount of rain. But the South Shore is a slightly drier escape. This sunny swath of Kauai is popular among snorkelers, swimmers, and Poipu Beach resort guests. For sure, the South Shore has some of the best sunsets. Baby Beach, is I think one of the best places to see it, This is a protected cove just west of Poipu Beach, where you'll find "calm, ankle-deep waters, perfect for families with babies — hence the name — and small children." Also, a place known as Sunset Wall, a local favorite spot at Koloa Landing, is just down the road from Ko'a Kea Resort. Also, I love the Sunsets from Salt Pond Beach Park, where a protected lagoon with clear water offers a serene sunset experience. Hamakua Coast - Hawaii Island I love this drive so much that I can't wait to return to it every time I am on the Big Island. It starts with the Pepe'ekeo Scenic Drive, conveniently nestled just a short drive north of Hilo on Highway 19, offering a delightful escape into the essence of old Hawai'i.

If I look at investors, I would say…‘it's okay, that's not normal…you just have to realize, it wouldn't be realistic to keep up with an index where 7 stocks are driving the majority of the performance.'” ~ Fritz Folts[21:56] - "I think the best chance for the non-US equities to take a leadership position, for an extended period of time, will only be after there is a material correction in the US market.” ~ Fritz FoltsLinksFritz Folts on LinkedIn“Everything's Coming Our Way” by Santana3EDGE Asset ManagementConnect with UsMeet Rusty Vanneman, Orion's Chief Investment OfficerCheck Out All of Orion's PodcastsPower Your Growth with OrionCompliance Code: 0280-OPS-2/6/2024Disclosure(s) ~ Orion Portfolio Solutions, LLC, an Orion Company, is a registered investment advisor.

Kathleen from Plenty of Sunshine Travel met with Fernanda from Star Clippers for this week's cruise chat. . If you found value in this video and wish to help this channel. You can send a donation using this link ~ https://bit.ly/KathleenPenner. Star Clippers is very unique. You will sail like our ancestors did many years ago, letting the wind take you to your destinations. In fact, Star Clippers try their best not to use their engines. They plan the itineraries to go in the direction of the trade winds. The Journeys are created with the wind charts, and the major energy source is wind propulsion—minimal motor emissions, which is safer for the environment. . You can climb the masts and get quite the view from the platform of the sails. Each day, you watch the beautiful sails being raised and go the way of the ocean. Most of the rooms don't have balconies, only on their newest ship are suites with a balcony..Their ships have a deep draft - which means that they sit low in the ocean, and because of this, you will not feel the waves as much as you would on the larger ships. This is an authentic way of sailing ~ It's not your typical way of sailing, and they are near replicas of the clipper ships from the Golden Age of sailing. . I would enjoy laying on the netting at the ship's bow and would love to see the dolphins jumping around us. . Star Clipper has an open bridge policy, which is a ton of fun to pop into the bridge and chat with the captain about the controls and the area around the ship. . There are knot-tying nautical talks where they teach you to tie knots properly and expertly. You can also “Take the Helm” and steer the ship. . Local Entertainment with Nightly Dancing Under the Stars & More! PLUS, you will enjoy complimentary Watersports. You can do snorkelling, kayaking, paddle-boarding, waterskiing, sailing, and more on the Marina Platform. . One guest left a review for Star Clippers - they said: There is truly no experience as thrilling as a clipper ship, the food is awesome, and the staff is fabulous. Sailing is for your heart and Soul. The Star Clippers Fleet Royal Clipper Length 439 feet Draft - 18.4 feet 54,000 square feet of sails. 42 sails, 5 Masts, 227 passengers with 106 Crew. Atria has 114 staterooms, including 3 swimming pools and a B-story interior—a spa & health Club with an observation lounge and a library. The Star Clippers & Star Flyer is very much like sailing on a private yacht. The length is 379 feet, and the draft is 18.4 feet. 36,200 square feet of sails. She can reach speeds of 5-19 knots with 16 sails and 4 masts. 166 guests are onboard, and you will be serviced by 74 crew. Star Clippers visits the Caribbean and departs from Barbados on their Windward or Grenadine Islands itineraries. They also depart from St Maarten on the Leeward itinerary or Treasure Islands itinerary.

Did you go (or are you considering going) to college for dance? It's pretty cutthroat out there and my incredible guest, contemporary and ballet diva, Julie Friedrich, discusses the pro's and con's of going to college for dance, how she's paved her own path professionally (5:00) and how she mentors dancers through her own program (10:42). Julie Friedrich's distinguished career as a professional dancer, mentor, and dance educator in the areas of ballet and contemporary dance spans more than 20 years. Julie received her primary dance education from Meredith Baylis of the Joffrey Ballet School and the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts.

Upon returning to the United States, Julie joined the acclaimed contemporary dance company BodyTraffic as one of its founding members, where she danced for the last three years of her professional dancing career.Julie taught for over a decade at both the Orange County High School for the Arts and the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts. Through her guidance, Julie has numerous Young Arts winners and her students have gone on to study at the Juilliard School, USC/Kaufman, SUNY Purchase, Arts Umbrella, Cal Arts, Tisch at NYU, and Pace University just to name a few. Professionally, she has former students working in such companies as ATE9, Kyle Abraham, Aspen Santa Fe Ballet, Cirque Du Soleil, and on Broadway. Currently, Julie is in her 11th year serving on the performing arts faculty at the Windward School in Culver City, where she teaches, directs, and curates the dance program. Along with her full time work at Windward, she serves as the ballet director for Danceology, and as guest ballet faculty at various institutions across the nation. Since 2012 she has been an integral part of the artistic team at Francisco Gella Dance Works. Julie continues her work mentoring students in preparation for their entrance into the collegiate world through her College Preparatory Program that has developed into a nationwide program serving students and families. In 2013, through the Young Arts Foundation, President Obama and the White House named Julie one of the most influential arts teachers in the country for her mentorship of young dancers.https://franciscogelladance.com/college-career-prep/Instagram@missjulie1220FacebookJulie Rose FriedrichHey y'all!

Dangerously Yours was a half hour show sponsored by Vicks. There were sixteen episodes broadcast in 1944, with eleven of them available to collectors today. Each episode seemed to star Victor Jory as the leading man, and concentrated heavily on romance, with much airtime being devoted to lovers murmuring sweet nothings at each other, and the action and adventure being relegated to backdrop status. At the end of each episode, the announcer would give a very brief teaser for the following week's show.Listen to our radio station Old Time Radio https://link.radioking.com/otradioListen to other Shows at My Classic Radio https://www.myclassicradio.net/Podcast Service I Recommend https://redcircleinc.grsm.io/entertainmentradio7148Remember that times have changed, and some shows might not reflect the standards of today's politically correct society.
