"Speak to this girls. I feel like he might be trying to overcompensate to make sure you like him. Yep, that's it. Right now, probably. But if he starts touching you, that's what it's like, oh, stop with the back rub. I don't need a back rub. I think Jessica is right. You don't want to get too. You missed a spot. Yeah. And it would need to know how flirty is she? No, this is the problem when you start dating, you're trying to be nice and meet girls, and then you finally find a nice girl, and then all these other girls show up. And so you're just doing what you know how to do. You're just being nice. You're being sweet. I need to know what he's doing here, but I think this is an honest issue. It's some girls think that if a guy speaks to them, that they're flirty with them. Yeah. It's kind of an ego. That's right. How about if I do the? How about if I do the Charlie Chaplin? Oh no, never mind. Wait, that's more than flirting. That's borderline sexual assault. I was going to say that, but I didn't want to get in trouble. It's a classic.

"You. And so like changing doing work that allows me to bring more of those different systems of knowledge and those different diverse perspectives into the creation of things and then on the people side of just continuing to bring more of those people who are holders of those knowledge that knowledge, the descendants of African people from different African cultures who hold that knowledge or indigenous people native people. And providing a platform for them to use that knowledge that's been passed down to them to design and create things that make the world a better place. Well, just to wrap things up here, where can our audience find out more about you and your work and all your projects and everything, where can they find that online? Yeah, so I try to not be so visible online all the time. But I do, they can find me on my Instagram as these underscore LE and the near future will be releasing a new website for design to divest where they can kind of check out some of that work that we're doing. And if anyone wants to chat with me or anything like that, they can always shoot me a message on LinkedIn, definitely try to respond to people who reach out to me and might not be immediate, but definitely something that I'm open to chatting more and more people who resonate with some of the things that I'm doing. All right, sounds good. Well, Aziz Ali, I want to thank you so much for coming on the show. One, of course, for telling your story about how you got into design, but I think it's really important, especially now as a lot of people are really looking at the work that they do and try to figure out how it can make an impact in the world. I think the way that you're taking your design knowledge and one that you've been able to apply it to different parts of design, but then two also using it in a way to pay it forward to the community is something that is super important and I hope that we get to see a lot more of that in the future. So thank you so much for coming on the show. I appreciate it. Yeah, thank you so much for having me. Big big thanks to Aziz Ali balagoon and of course, thanks to you for listening.

"And so part of what the design to divest my hopes for design to divest is to really provide that platform on one hand for black and indigenous designers to be able to have content and community to engage with around design that validates their identity, that validates their cultural heritage. And then it brings them to the table of creation. I feel like the world is a group project and typically only a select group of communities and cultures have gotten to participate in creating the institutions, organizations and businesses that shape the lived experiences for all of us. And I think it's time that we create the space of ownership. I think this is what equity means, like ownership and creation and stop blocking these communities that are on the margins that condition this communities from participating in the creation of this stewardship of the world. And I think that I want design to divest to be that platform that allows black and indigenous communities to harness their ability to design through their own cultural intelligence to create and populate the institutions and things that in the world that are going to serve our communities. Who are some of the people that inspire you. It's a tough question because I'm typically just inspired by people in general. I'm inspired by culture in general. Obviously I'm inspired by my family by my parents aunts and uncles, especially coming from Nigeria, making.

"And nothing is serving us in a way that it's going to provide any level of comfort or any level of support. And it's actually doing the opposite. And so I think design to divest became, especially for designers because I think like so many designers get into design, feeling that they can change something or that there's some sense of positivity that they can use designed to affect but no one ever tells them how, and then it typically falls flat with very altruistic ideas that really don't connect back to impact. It just connects back to some sense of moral superiority, but just like a sense of moral reflection that you did a project that did something, but it doesn't necessarily connect back to impact. And I think, you know, with the idea of design today vest, we really want to give people a path to connect the things that they do to the impact that they want to see in the world. The impact that they want to see in the institutions and impact that they want to see in the different products and tools and experiences that we experience in the world. And now speaking of that impact, given now that the collective has gone on now what, I guess this will be sort of your second year of going into things? What do you want to see designed to divest accomplish? Quite a lot over time. But I think about education is a really cool thing in terms of in one of the things that we've identified too is that there are so many designers on the margin designers of color, but particularly black and indigenous designers who don't have access to any type of content or education that teaches design in a way that validates their culture in a way that validates their identity in a way that celebrates the cultural intelligence of their heritage.

"Fairly newer field and design in the United States. It's still catching on you're starting to see it more so now than it was years ago. I mean, it's definitely been something that was far more developed in Europe than it has been in the United States and that's just like a reflection of the market and how we view the utility of design here. An organization's and hearing the service design methods and methodologies. That was very interesting to me and I was ready to go to scad. But also another friend of mine who I was in undergrad with had mentioned art center to me before. And I really like the rigor that arts inter placed on developing your technical skills in the level of polish that a lot of the portfolios and a lot of the students had the capacity for after graduating from art center. And then also art center had this program with the drucker school of management where the graduate industrial design program also could be a dual degree dual MBA degree. Now I didn't actually like once I got there, I didn't see the usefulness. Not necessarily in an MBA because I did take MBA classes at UCLA. I do see a benefit in that, but I didn't see the benefit for that particular school that art center was partnering with. So I didn't actually go forward with that. Though it was a decision that I made to go there in the first place to go to arts and tender first place because that option was available. And while you were there, you also managed to kind of work on an internship which lets you transition into product design, right? Yeah, I did a couple of internships there. But the education too, the education too in a great ID..

"And that's literally how I jumped into jewelry design. I was interested in fashion. I was interested in it was interested in design in general. But I wasn't intending to go be like a jewelry designer. If anything, I would have wanted to go to do something and footwear design at Nike because that would have merged a lot of the biomechanics and kind of medical technical medical things that I was thinking about in terms of design with human performance. And so you have joy design just kind of came about. It was an opportunity that kind of came about. But it really allowed me to start to understand what it meant to design for things that were going to be worn on people's bodies. That makes sense. How long were you a jewelry designer? I was there for about two to two and a half years? Okay. It was quite an interesting experience. But even though while I was there, so this is also in the field of user experience design or a lot of the digital product design, all of that stuff. That was still fairly in its infancy. And so even while I was there, I participated in some things, some interface things that were very interesting. And from there, after I left that company, I kind of wanted to discover what is it that I really wanted to do, but I also needed to look at where the market was going. Industrial design jobs weren't like en masse, you know, it wasn't like a lot of these jobs that when designing physical things, they don't have incredibly large teams. And so the scene kind of the digital world kind of pick up. I started to make some pivots over into really learning that particular skill set..

"I'm curious to kind of learn more about you like your particular origin story. Tell me about where you grew up. So both of my parents are from Nigeria and I was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. So I grew up in Louisiana. And yeah, I spent most of my time my childhood in Louisiana and went there to high school. I initially went to southern university when I graduated high school for a couple of semesters before switching over to design and going to university of Louisiana. But growing up, I wouldn't have thought of myself as being a designer. I didn't really, it wasn't exposed to it in that way. I mean, my dad was in school for architecture. So I was exposed to that, but the ideas of industrial design or other aspects of design weren't really things that came across. And I was more interested. I played basketball growing up, but I was more interested in trying to go to the NBA than I was. If anything, with anything else, but I was also an avid reader, you know, I read quite a lot. And I did a lot of writing, drawing, and so there was always that kind of creative aspect, but I imagined myself being going into medical school rather than design. So when you went to university of Louisiana, Lafayette though, you ended up majoring in industrial design, like talk to me about that. Yeah, so I mean, that was really the reason that I left southern university because they didn't have an industrial design program. So initially, whenever I was in school, my intention was to be a pediatric surgeon. And then I was actually, I was like, I'm going to study biomedical engineering, and then go to medical school to be a pediatric surgeon. That was my intention..

"In meetings and trying and doing a lot of co design in order to fulfill requirements and understand what the needs are directly with both the users and then my products that stakeholders as well. What would you say is the most challenging part about what you do? Stakeholder management, maybe? And the reason that I would say that is, when I think about the idea of complexity, what really makes anything complex is that you have a bunch of different competing priorities that happen at scale. And so being able to really clearly align all the different priorities that are happening from different parts of the process and different stakeholders into something that works I think the most difficult part. Because you're also like, I'm also constantly listening and observing what people are saying, what people are doing. And then trying to translate that down into a language that can be understood by everyone who is involved. And as you know, it's interesting as we talk about language and linguistics. Not only in different languages, there are different languages within different industries, there are different languages within different professions. And so everyone might have a different way of communicating the same thing. And so oftentimes you can be in meetings where people are trying to communicate an idea or a concept with the language of their own profession. So like engineers might be communicating things in a certain way that's different from product that's also slightly different from the way that the type of language that design would use to communicate something and then our end users are using a different type of language. And trying to wrangle all of those different concepts and ideas and the way that people are trying to express what it is that they're trying to think of in a way that everyone's aligned on and everyone kind of understands..

He is making an effort. He's not totally saying we're splitting everything in half find system you split it down the middle and then he gets a little extra from time to time but the fact they're arguing about it right now when they just moved in is a bad sign adds. Money is hard relationships. Yeah i agree mulbah. let's move on. What else have you got alley dear alley. I have been married for twenty three years. And i have two kids. My husband and i really haven't had a sex life for years and now that the kids are out of the house. I want to revive it when i've tried. He has trouble keeping it steph so to speak. Do i suggest he takes viagra. Or is that emasculating. Is there any way i could. Just get them and slip them into his drink to. Don't trust out to that there could be. There could be medical medical assurance. There would be a very fine conversation while the problems.

And my boyfriend's apartment and he's literally incapable of getting his pee in the toilet. We have fights about it yet. He doesn't seem to change even though he says he is changing. It's not recent some guys can't aim or something or is he just lazy. He works here. Every guy every also want to technical. But there's a bifurcation of the stream on occasion where then you've got to choose while you're standing over the toilet. Which stream do i have. Go in the toilets white enough. Isn't it a point shooting target. But here's what happened. That's a big not. If it splits nine degrees will happen. It's usually post-coital butts. What can happen. I think in. I think what's happening here at work is the when he was shaking. He's not over the shaping of the toilet shaking with twenty seconds to go in there. Right right your best bet is tell them to use the sink and that way you can get right up there and there's i have. I've got a solution. You guys you get one of those bath mats that goes around the toilet all the way you get two of them and you swap them out every couple of days and you make real pissy note because you wash it very frequently josh. And that's why you're getting two of them every days you replace it and you wash it. I think it's not supposed to put those in the washer peabody with her. Yeah and then if you see and then look and if you see that you've made a mess you clean it up start leaving your applicators on the ground by the toilet applicators stuff. You can make a pan flute really help. So i got a question so those things that i don't have my house those things that go around the toilet that are like you shaped my aunt. Always wash i washed you. Oh god a rubber backing it can mess up the washer. Yeah but i still wash. Yeah okay because those also make a really cool vest. Look like sonny bono back in the day i got you. I go to red lobster.

What do you mean i. Here's the thing these guys you hire somebody to get tossed and then all of a sudden it's looked down on this. Don't do that. this is what you going. What about the poor little doors. What about the poor little guys who are making a nice living. Yeah didn't mind being thrown that. What you're saying taken anything i've said. Put your put your foot under your car and back over. Rally hurts josh. you've got something. Well i think we should get to. The letter is absolutely here alley. My girlfriend recently started taking golf lessons. She never had any interest before. And now i get the feeling it's for a guy or maybe just to meet guys. Probably for a girl ou know goes on to say i at her about it. And she said i was being sexist but she never denied what i had asked. Do you agree with me right. I don't see let's play golf exactly. Yeah what have you considered that. I think off and on my whole life and never really met a guy on a golf. This guy's not paranoid enough for me. Know about what we're thinking about him. That's what he needs to worry about. Isn't gulf one of the more individual source you. You're not running around meeting all kinds of people maybe in the in the clubhouse but can do your whole life exactly the house in the locker room shower can be one on one with a really hot instructor but if she was cheating she wouldn't told you about it so lord give her the benefit of the doubt that she just wants to learn how to play golf. No joke you know what. Why don't you join her and play golf with her therapy. Don't worry about something until there's something exactly that's exactly right and i was worried about what she said Are you seeing other clients a little cynical. Yeah i say don't exactly let's not worry about this. Until you need to your. Oh and make no mistake. You're going to need to There is a theory. It's all successful businessmen who play golf. So yeah if she went to the clubhouse does he also be. I don't know what business she's in but couldn't she also say i want to be part of some of these deals that happened on the golf course and a lot of rise. Don i want to be able to go out with clients sell. What is doing it also could just be a simple as she watched you know. Happy gilmore exactly looks fun. I'm gonna take let's right. She's making a ton. Oh money the places that have really nice business guys in the locker in the clubhouse our country clubs and you can't really afford to play golf there. I can't afford to play golf in places like that. So if you're looking at your local municipal course that now citicorp. That's my i can't. It's it's so harmless. It's greasy in fact. I want to ask this guy who were you wanting to cheat because if you just immediately jump on your mind. Yeah that's true if you're suspecting you're probably thinking about yeah that's where mine's going okay. Next has been says. We don't have enough money to go on vacation together. But i know he spends at least five hundred dollars on strippers every month. How will the mall makes sense. You wouldn't have money to go on a lot of money when i bring it up. He says it's a hobby. He needs it to relax and calm down. Is this in any way acceptable. No yeah.

I was living in new york city i was. You know it might twenty trying to figure out life. And at the time i was working for a handbag company doing doing sales and marketing and i met my boyfriend at the time who was a triathlete and he really got me into this kind of whole new sense of health and wellness. I would say. I was always a healthy person but starting to do marathons biathlons certainly a two point. Oh version of that. And i think you started competing with them i did. I got up to doing a half. Ironman was along. Just were the person who would hide in the woods during the cross practice in high school. Because i hated to run them. I know really what he taught me. Was that an so much more mental than physical. And i think that art became super intriguing. Jimmy a really holistic health and that is so much more than just what you put into your body and so i started searching for another career option and ended up finding institute for integrative nutrition on i did bear program in two thousand seven and really what that taught me was food medicine. You know kind of everything that's coming to the forefront of health and wellness today in that program really learned that there is not many options for healthy gluten free products and i had started to eat. That way really was working with a lot of clients sewer eating that way suggesting and then they end up feeling better. Products on the shelf were few and barbara. I really saw an opportunity for healthier better tasting and initially started as something in the background of my mind. I ended up going to a local. Triathlon exploded participate in the race but really to promote my nutrition practice. I had a booth at the expo and figuring any thing to entice people to come in shop with me. So i've made this batch of blueberry muffins to get people to talk to me at of course not one person sign up for my nutrition practice.

I just freaked out my booty call because he was over in my mom stopped by, and she told him that she's heard a lot about him and said, he better treat me right now.

You said voice. Will you not the mom needs to stay out of his altogether? I would say, I think everyone should stop using the expression. I've heard a lot about you because I've never had someone say that to me and I have a positive reaction. It always makes me nervous and always anxious. I'm saying, yeah, I've heard that you fell off on your good night. We're up all night and he was trying to convince me, let go on the show and I said, I know what you've heard about women. Yeah. And then Christy started crying when he heard shared your name off. I make ribbon nervous enough for anything to me is a great guy. Yeah just say hey look sorry about my mom thing but you want to come over later on in life. I mean jeeze just sent him a naked pic remind him of what he's missing out on. There you go. Yeah, yeah. Maybe just here's the thing, just have her have Mom. Take the dog. Sure, and send it to look my mom had this snapshot, she wanted you to see the more important issue here is just quit telling your mom stuff. She doesn't need to know that. I'm not sure she I'm not sure she ever said anything. I think this Mom just sort of assumed it ordered all that out, even if you did, I like, did you have an open relationship with your mom? Do you want to hear the best mom joke I've ever heard? Yeah, I hope I can tell it mother says, Susan, am I a good mother took the kids just Mom my name's Amy. That's very good. That is funny. Yeah, the economy of words, just get our next letter out. Amy. I'm hanging off, you know, I'm doing Alex. You got me doing sorry. What's that? Other mom joke it ends with no no no no no no.

You could do that either. Didn't know you could do that like that. If you are, you say the backup, plug his phone into your computer and then you back it up a computer.

Short Wave
Science Movie Club: 'Twister'
"Alley. Burgos still remembers the first time she saw it. I mean we all do as about in fourth grade. It was maybe around midnight. Probably not that late because my parents probably wouldn't let me step that lay but Curtains drawn. I was knitting and I happened to come across admitted I happened to come across this movie on. Tv is just flipping channels. You know and I saw a tornado so I started watching it and I was just mesmerized. I remember my dad coming down and like yelling at me to go to bed. I was like just just wait. One more minute like I need to keep watching this Which she did and she saw the defining weather film of Nineteen Ninety. Six a movie. I love to hate twister starring Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt in the movie chase down tornadoes trying to find a way to study them up close and personal and eventually they end up finding each other like it is such a good kind of bad movie. Yeah absolutely it's one of those things that you just watch like. Oh it's so good but so bad at the same time. So today. Our first shortwave. Movie Club we're talking one of my personal favorites twister with Alli Burgos meteorologist in analyst for the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration. I- Madison via shortwave. The daily science podcast from NPR. Alright here's the plan. I'm GonNa talk about some scenes in the movie alleys going to tell us about the science. Here we go in pretty much any scene with a tornado. It makes the sound. It's so ridiculous because tornadoes don't sound like roaring lion. I'm pretty darn sure. I think when I was reading a little bit about the movie they really want to make the Tornados. Seem like you know. A person are like this thing with like character and soul and generally tornadoes actually sound more like this constant low rumble sound or more like a rushing train. All right all right next up something. They got Kinda right the whole movie. Scientists are trying to get this instrument called Dorothy into the path of a tornado. We put her up inside a tornado. So they don't get sucked up in send out readings from the inside radio back information about the internal structure wind velocities flow a symmetry. We learn more than thirty six and they have in the past thirty years profile. The tornado for the first time the cool thing is is that these instruments are real. Scientists actually tried a version of this in the eighties sprite. Yeah so they modeled Dorothy after a real instrument called toto from wizard of Oz. The little dog toto. That's why they named it. And so the basic idea was to put that in the path of a tornado and had I could measure temperature and pressure and winds because what they really needed was to be able to get measurements real time so they only had things from radar doppler. So that's all from faraway measuring all those things and they tried it a couple of times in. It's really dangerous. As as the movie shows of trying to put something into our tornadoes half but now they actually have a new program that Noah is starting to fund called Torres and this is taking really small weather balloons and putting instruments on that and flying them up in Tornado. Okay so the balloon kind of takes that instrument package with it versus having to put a big clunky metal thing right in the power. So we've come a long way from like dropping something off a pickup truck into the center of the Tornado so cool so so the instrumentation while it wasn't like trying to measure exactly the same things was actually based off of a real experiment yet. They exact concept behind it was was the same so the last big scene of the movie is perhaps in. This is saying the. Let's be honest. It's the best season so the main characters are trying to get as close to an f five tornado. Great idea as they possibly can. And they deliver this device into the tornado and they kind of like get stuck on this farm. They're trying to run away from the Tornado at the same time report. You couldn't do in real life. Okay okay this is good because this is going to ask you about. But they basically find their way into this tiny shed Phil. Paxton is like it's fine. We're going to tether ourselves to this pipe. That goes really deep in the ground. Do with these two leather straps and then f five tornado rolls over the shed. Horrifically over the rips. The shed out of the ground. They're like being pulled up into the center of the tornadoes. One it is the most fun scene of the movie. You feel like you're inside of that Tornado with them. You see lightning bolts going on. There are multiple mini tornadoes within the big tornado. Within the tornado passes and they're totally fine her fine. Yes the biggest issue with that scene. Is that if you did have supposedly an F five tornado which you wouldn't be able to tell just looking at it is that all of the debris flying on around them would most likely kill them an f five tornado has wins upwards of three hundred miles an hour so even if you have a small small screwdriver for example of rats flying at that speed hits you you're gone and if you saw in that scene there is a shed and it's like full of like farming equipment ause and they would probably get hit by something like that but it certainly makes it a fun scene so tell me when you're saying you can't tell just by looking at because they're like this is an f. five right yeah so you can actually determine the scale or the intensity of a tornado just by looking at it what scientists have to do is do a damage survey afterwards and see all of the damage that the tornado caused and then from that they can determine the intensity walked has now moved on to the northeast. I've just got Mordovia. That even stronger Hornet is now starting to form twenty five miles from one you know so at at no point. Can you predict that a tornado is going to be at five before it happened? Correct to do the damage report. And you say okay based on this system this right and they were just going by you. Know bigger means stronger more violent. And that's not always the case you can actually have tornadoes that are look pretty small but that are very very violent. Okay all right so we have hated on twister a little bit by now but I feel like a lot of times in science movies. Scientists seem like pretty buttoned up lay definitely predominantly male. Which they still are in this movie. But you know. The lead researcher in this movie is woman. She's got a personal stake in her science. She's really passionate about helping people in that kind of stuck with me for sure. Yeah I think that stuck with a lot of people and I think a lot of people don't realize that there are tons and tons of researchers out in the field and so it's really cool just seeing people like down getting their hands dirty and really putting their heart and soul especially into something that is so important to help people and you told me that. This movie played a big role in your life to. Oh definitely I was one of those weird kids that watch the weather channel. Every morning waking up from school normal kid and so- twister definitely kind of showed me that there's another side of science besides just being a TV broadcasting like you can go out and research these things and going to college to study meteorology. My parents actually bought me that movie as a parting gift on DVD. It's fair to say that this movie inspired you in some way to go into your. Oh definitely and I think it inspired a lot of people to I know all of my meteorology friends speak very fondly of this movie when they were kids.

Richard Ashby on working with America's young tennis talent
"Guest for this episode? Richard Ashby Richard. Welcome thank you. Thanks for having me. Richard Works here at the. Usda national campus. Richard tells a little brief bio about yourself then working for the for sixteen years before that coached on my own little bit privately with pros and Juniors Worked in some academies before that and so. That's my coaching background played. Junior Tennis Played College University of South Carolina. That's basically playing background played a little bit of pro after college but not that successful so onto coaching. That's relatable So what players. What age group are you targeting right now? Do you work with a specific group. Your work with the fourteen hundred girls. I'm here at the national campus. So we bring kids for camps primarily camps training weeks. We don't do a lot of traveling with kids that age. We don't have them come in. For long periods of time they usually come in for a week or two weeks of training And we work with their coaches. So we get the information back to the coaches things that we worked on here things that we see we go to tournaments have a chance to watch him play there and hopefully see them improving on things have a chance to talk to their coaches about things. We're seeing a lot easier when it's you know live where you're watching something and talking with the coach so the tournaments. It's a great option to do that. With coaches so you've been working with the USA for sixteen years. Have you been with the girls? Fourteen and under age single year no Started two thousand three so that first year and the next year we're primarily with Like junior pros so kids basically seventeen to eighteen sixteen eighteen and did that for a couple of years and then in two thousand and five started with the kids born in Nineteen ninety-one that age group so worked with an age group for few years through Two thousand eight then two thousand nine. I started with twelve and unders Jade Louise and other coach. I used to work with age group and He actually started working with kids older. So I Essentially switch places with him so from two thousand nine assorted with twelve and under and kind of grown to thirteen and then fourteen and fourteen under for last few years. Do some name. What are some players you've worked with? Amanda Anisimov was slow and Stevens. Cannon CICI Bellis Falconi yes all those players So yeah very fortunate. When we moved to we moved to Boca it was a good location. Had A lot of good players in the area so players Would come through in practice. We were able to set up a program where they're younger players. Come out and you know not every day Amanda I came out like once a week when she was younger Always worked with her. Dad was her coach. So work with her Same with Sonya and We did we actually had a pretty good set-up there where they in the morning to drilling and then the afternoons do match play and we'd be able to have kids kind of all levels. Sometimes older kids coming out in the afternoon but Amanda and Sonia. You know where kids at did that from pretty much. The beginning Sloan. I've done very little with her. I mean it's mostly been Camps or a little bit of training and Let's see who else has been out of there You know so. Yeah Irena Hell Coney for sure. Was there So when I worked with a ninety one group Sorry come and play matches Actually tell Ya arena like the first candidate when we were in key Biscayne arena. It's actually in the camp along with Alli Risk. So Mallory burdette there. You go so a bunch of kids That a moved on to play pros which is great. You know so. That's one of the things. I'm fortunate. I got to work with kids. That are the best in the country so you know a lot of them are going to be successful so I was actually mentioning that to see the other day. We were watching you practice with one of the girls. I don't I can't remember her name but she's pretty good. And I made a comment to see see I was like. Did you work with coach? Richard Like Yeah. I did and I was like. That's unbelievable when I was. I believe it was thirteen or something. I was still living in New York and I got this letter from the USDA. Do you WanNa do this. Camp Key Biscayne and sure enough it was with Alison riske Madison Bengal Whom all our top seventy have been top seventy players. It's not very common for a coach to be able to have that much of an impact on so many players that end up being professional. What is it that you have that makes that possible GonNa Know How much it is me. It's definitely good system where you know. We got a chance to see young players at an early age. I remember the first camp she came to. She was not the best. One they're You're maybe in the middle of the pack She had come to the some of the similar things she has. Now you know just the excitement. She always brings the cord and everything. So that hasn't changed. You know she's just gotten better as it's gone along so You know to be to be honest. Yeah I mean I enjoy helping the kids and you know if anything the you know. Try as much as possible for them to enjoy it as well and to try to guide them. I guess for game for the future. Now you know that's up to them to pile of things but You know most of those kids like I say we're good when they got there and you know they've gotten better they've gone long moved on to other coaches and everything so successful pretty popular name is big names that have come through the. Ashby system for all those players though that that you worked with. That didn't make it. Can you tell the difference between someone like an Anisimov an Kenan? Can you see or that early on the? Hey this kid's something different or is it more of quantity and then figuring out one or two that rice the top. There are many kids that I thought were going to be very very good. Maybe even better than those guys and they ended up not being ended up being good tennis players. But not you know making it into the pros. you know so. I've learned as gone along that. I'm not a very good predictor so We try not to pick try to just have lots of players coming through as much as possible and try to treat. Treat them all in a way that this is what you need to do to be great so they have that chance some apply while some were going to be great no matter what we did but Try to treat all the players. A came to come through with the idea that you know. Look at your game now and where do you WanNa go if you want to be a pro these things you to address and unfortunately getting to see them? When they're young twelve thirteen fourteen. They have a chance to you. Know make make those adjustments if they can. So you know the the ones that came in. Maybe I thought were really good and ended up not being so good as far as results. I think. That's just how tough the sport is. You know it's I remember the stout that somebody was saying that basically every year the top one hundred seventy six jobs available something like that. We're on the women's side so you know you have to be that good that you're going to take someone's job who's seventy in the world and that's not easy so many of these guys are good players but you know it's just not that easy to actually be a

You've gotta earn it. Visit certification dot org for details. Hello. From the newsroom the financial times in London. I'm season blimp. Som Ray blocks a California-based online gaming started valued at t- point four billion dollars. In offend raising round lost year has taken the US by storm. And is now I in Europe's thriving market Malcolm more discusses the rise of cloud gaming with Alli ram and timber chew. So I can you tell us what is roadblocks? How's it evolved? And how come so many kids in the US playing it? Yes. Well, it's extrordinary. They claim to have half of all nine to twelve year olds in America's uses and they have said they have more than ninety million monthly users around the world. It's a gaming platform in which uses children mostly designed that own games and games, kind of become more or less prominent based on how many people are playing them and how much they're enjoying them. And based on that. It's become really big. So you can go onto it you can design a game. And then you can play the game that you've designed nor shall the game with your friends. You can play the game you've designed you can play your friends games. They can play your games you can make a business out of it. You can make money off it. Okay. So that makes it very different then from games like foot night and Minecraft. Yes. So the models different. Because instead of building your own features in an existing world, you actually build your wealth from scratch as a user, and you can do that either by dragging and dropping features that roadblocks has designed and office to you to choose from or you can actually code elements of the world and the game that you want to create in that world yourself does that sound about right? Tim a decent. There are some overlaps in a way with fortnight in the foot night in his current geysers. This battle royale game where there's one hundred people competing to get down to the last man standing at the it's sort of become a mole flu. Would space than just that. Because you have concerts being held there. You have people using it as effectively just kind of place to hang out with their friends in that respect that both kind of virtual worlds, the have given a new kind of place for people to make their own entertainment in a way, it's not quite as prescriptive as trying to complete a level the kind of traditional videogames of old. This is the phenomenon that is cold in the industry, social gaming, and is becoming increasingly popular, and it's a kind of gaming community in which playing games as one tiny part of what they do. And a lot else of what they do is communicate with friends with strangers and share experiences online. The ideas sort of originally goes back to Facebook pre mobile, so farmville throwing sheep and things like that which were sort of big on Facebook probably almost a decade ago now, but kind of dropped off when Facebook moved onto mobile because it wasn't the same abilities to create. Mini games. Insides the Facebook out as the was on the desktop and so companies like Zinger at pine it that area died away a little bit and a lot of social mechanics that they were using more about trying to recruit new users than genuine the spending time with your friends or playing case, your friends, and that started to change with titles like was with friends while you were playing scrabble against people online. But that's now starting to come back again come full circle. And so he still Snapchat has just launched its knees social gaming platform Myer actually in your chats with your friends playing a little game right in now. Which is an idea that was really popularized in China with we chat, and the we chat many games platform. So there's lots of different attempts in lots of different ways now to create this sort of social gaming idea. Do you guys think that the audience for social games is different from the audience for traditional console games? Or are we looking at situation where the audience migrates from one to the other? Oh, I think one of the things that's marked out the the sort of lost decade in the advent of mobile gaming is it has broadens the number of people who play games regularly, whether the you'd looking at things like angry birds or candy crush all those kinds of things and those by and large were still solo activities, but people who might not want to sit down and play cola juicy or even for that muscle full night for an intensive period of time of got more used to this more casual form of gaming, and so that's in a way, why when the smartphone I came out, and they are obstacle launched. There was a lot of concern in the industry that would cannibalize console gaming actually it just increase the size of the market overall. And so the console gaming market was more for the hardcore gamers and the PC gaming mauka, even more dedicated players. And then there's a large number of people playing less frequently or less intensively on the smallest green and phones and those lines now really starting to blur. Okay. But with things like the roadblocks platform and others. Sort of social games are the best enjoyed on a mobile or on a desktop, and if their best enjoyed on a desktop where does that leave mobile games where they go in the future? It's a Google is trying to square that circle with its new games Jimmy platform stadia which was unveiled a couple of weeks ago, and is designed so that you can play exactly the same game on any device whether that is your phone or a PC or the TV sets. And so because all of the processing is done in the clouds and the same way as Netflix extremes videos to your screen. Whatever size comes to be. It will stream a fully-fledged game with really rich graphics, and you're not constrained by the processing power that you have runny particular device. And so it's not yet clear what games are going to emerge from that have been very little titles announced fill stadia so far. But that promise that you can play the same game everywhere was kind of established with full night. And it was something that started off as a kind of PC phenomenon. The only really took office his huge cultural movements, especially among younger players when it go onto Android denial s early last year. I think all these different gaming platforms catering to slightly different audiences are one of the major things that roadblocks is targeting is the developer community, so one of the big pitches that they make is that as a user of roadblocks. You can monetize a game yourself by building something that becomes popular goes viral. You can sell features within that game to other uses and Tun into a business, and I spoke to some developers who have built games on roadblocks, and it seems possible to make tens or hundreds of thousands of pounds. They claim some people have made millions of pounds on the platform by doing this. So I think some of these platforms addressing slightly different communities of gamers. I mean I mean, in a in way. a way this was the promise of second life more than a decade ago. Right. This was supposed to be an infinitely flexible virtual world where people could spend their time. And I think the problem the second life had part from the fact that the graphics were fairly poor and the connection was fairly terrible. Was that people go there, and he didn't really know what to do. And so very books solves out and vote night solves that by saying a case of start with it's a game and you come here primarily to play a game. And then they give you the tools to create something different out of that. And that's where roadblocks is definitely pioneering this vastly more inventive and creative type of gaming platform. So for large in the United States, but they are now expanding elsewhere. Yes. So they say they've seen much faster growth in Europe than in the US, and that focusing on the French and German market, they've launched a platform in French and German. They've also launched it in Korean and simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese which suggests they've got that is also firmly fixed on the Chinese massive. Market of gamers, so yeah, I think the next phase of the growth as the head of international expansion explained is overseas. How does roadblocks make money out of all of this of all these users and developers coming onto its platform and making their own games? Well, develop has got to keep a quarter of the money that's spent in that games, and very blocks takes away the rest, so they make money that way primarily and they claim that that model has allowed the business to become cash. Flow positive in the games. You mean uses buying certain items all lives or other things? The treasure chest type stuff that you can buy inside of games. Yes. So uses spun real money to buy a virtual currency, and then they can spend that virtual currency on things like clothes for that avatar or new features as part of the game. Enough to pay to play. They don't have to pay to play. I think that's a very keen business model innovation. These games are having in fortnight night is another great example of it. If you're trying to create an online space that is a genuine community you need to be able to kind of attract as many people as possible. But if it is a place where you are being yourself and hanging out you will want to kiss out. So the theory goes your avatar with something that establishes your personality, or nor density in the virtual world is the same way as you buy clothes fashion in the real world. And so the two things kind of Fito feature. Okay. And then just one final full them as the audiences for these grams grow in these communities and lodge. You know, are we going to face situation where safety becomes a problem? How regulators going to address what happens in these virtual worlds blocks has a kind of amazing and horrifying story about a child's avatar character who was right on the platform. And that was last year they said that the platform was hacked, and that's how. How that happened and they claim to have addressed it. But of course, as with all of these tools when you have children playing socially online, probably without being monitored. By parents does going to be a lot of concern about what happens in that context. And whether people who want to abuse that can leverage that game to do that. And I think that's just the nature of the beast. So for instance, roadblocks does own that problem, and they very vocally say that they want children to play on blocks, and that therefore they're going to have to deal with really complicated safety issues and invested not to make sure it's safe for them, the verification point, an how parental consensus grunted, whether it really is parental Cassandra disgrunted or just a kid taking a Boggs is a big unsold problem. Right. The way across this industry at the moment. And I don't know if that's going to be regulated into a solution something that the industry comes up with themselves. But it feels like that's gonna keep being an issue until something more a bus. Is put into place the but stories up a whole other set of questions around how much of your identity you want to share in verify online. So it's a really tough problem. Okay. Thank you very much.

From Buffy to Business: Sarah Michelle Gellar Opens Up
"Harder to the actress. There's a lot of preparation I assume, or running your own business in all of the trials. They're very different. I think sometimes it depends in the moment. You know, acting can be emotionally draining. You know if you're doing something that's heart wrenching or. You know, physical Buffy was extremely physical. The hours were extremely long, but that being said, you know, I had a nice trailer to Goto to craft services. There's luxuries that come with that. I think that this is a little bit more gut wrenching and the fact that I'm putting it all out there fail or succeed. You know, there's no in film and television. Every big actor has a movie that fails a TV show that doesn't go, you know, bad reviews and it's just onto the next visit. There isn't like they're not knowing areas. No next things. I think there's a different kind of pressure. Yeah, and because I am under a microscope right as well, it's, you know that you feel that extra pressure and it's always, I think it's always scary to step aside your comfort zone, but I could have stayed in my comfort zone and come back and I will continue to say, yeah, you'll go back to it. I do. Actually. I think that I'll get to a place with the company where I feel like there's a world where I can do both. It's just not. We were starting because to get into these stores and to do all that we launched online first and then the stores came to us very quickly wanting to put us this right. We knew that we weren't ready yet. Packaging was still straight to. Consumer there were still work to be done. And so our leap from being online launching to going into initially three hundred and then seven thousand stores was over the course of six months, and it's very quick and it's a lot of pressure because I say it's very much like a movie, right. You spend on your movie that you gotta get people to theater right then same things. Now we'd get on the shelf now. We have to get off the schnauzer the bake people go and buy it. Exactly. Now, I know alley struggled with this early on, frankly, still does, and. This how she balances, you know, I wonder if it's different in your previous career or with your with food stores with balancing the work life. Ally used to always feel guilty whenever she was working. She felt bad that she wasn't with her kids. Whenever she said that kid, she felt bad. She wasn't with Dr are and I feel felt so I feel so bad for an. I'm actually about to have my first baby right now. So I haven't been any minute now, but you look great considering. But I'm, it's so hard. It is. It's it's really hard. I, it's a question I get asked the most like work life balance the answers. There's no such fun than thank you. They're not. But the main thing that I do think you have to do is instead of doing that instead of feeling guilty when your home that you're not a drive are feeling guilty, you're not home is the reverse. You have to commit that when you are at Dr. Ardo fat is your debt gets your attention and that when you are home you president? I know I say the same thing I try to like make sure like I'm there for like the important big things for my kids, and I'm like, really a hundred percent there and vice versa. When I'm Dr are try to like really focus there. I will say this as a forwarded me while my children are really young also the ability to be a little more present because when you're on a film set, if my daughter has a midday show in first grade, I can't leave four hundred crew members to stay. I'll be back in our, you know, I
