When plant owner operators announced capital spending cuts the range of twenty percent to fifty percent. It looked like engineering firms. We're about to enter another cyclical downturn. Interestingly the management of these firms with the hard won wisdom gained in previous down terms did not act as one might have predicted instead of immediate deep cuts to personnel engineering firms. Look for alternative ways to pair costs. Such as cutting dividends reducing bonuses in eliminating certain non employees contractors while layoffs have not been completely avoided. These actions have mitigated the deeper reductions in the workforce that we're seeing in two thousand fourteen to two thousand fifteen and also a better positioned these firms to capitalize as a recovery slowly merged it is also worthy to note that in addition to carefully managing cost reductions certain investments have continued even accelerated most notably in digitalization so according to mckinsey and company's twenty twenty report the next normal construction two thirds of the four hundred survey dpc executives were accelerating their investments in digitalization these managers and executives understand that smart investments in digitalization.

Could you kindly address why. India was moved into the category of cpc sure Thank you thank you for that question. india was actually moved into the category of cbc recommendation. Last year in new serves twenty twenty report report and then we reiterated This the cbc recommendation again in in In in the twenty twenty one annual report A key factor was the citizenship amendment acted discriminatory law that was that was enacted in In in twenty nineteen Making a making up providing preference to certain are religious groups for citizenship We we also have long been concerned in in india with issues of Mob violence where mobs act with impunity and target religious minorities and legal legal structures that prohibit that prohibit conversions or restrict conversions and Now worrying new development there were several laws enacted during the during twenty twenty to restrict Interfaith marriage which resulted in numerous arrests during during the year Another concern expressed in the in the twenty twenty one chapter is the increasing repression of dissent Including those who spoke out against the citizenship amendment. Act in its discrimination against muslims and those who otherwise advocated for minority rights or religious or religious freedom there also. How has been a tightening of the space for civil society. Organizations ngos in india including restrictions on on foreign contributions contributions from abroad on and the the the closing of human rights and religious humanitarian ngos. Great on okay.

I can address that for such as specify that you serve the us commission on international Freedom is separate from the state department so to speak for the state department. But i can reference to the release of their report last month. as well There was a question on this issue. And of course Ineffective there was such that You know pieces is vital because of an ongoing conflict is stone pieces vital to Getting to respect for broader human rights and religious freedom. You know this is an issue. We've tracked for many years You know the situation there. Things flare up at different times. We've seen a flare up recently reprehensible to see people being denied but at the same time. It's extremely complicated as security Measures and concerns that fact iran But we certainly You know. I would like to see a movement here on the on the broader conflict. Is that indeed. A lot of the data that we followed over the years demonstrates when there's broader conflict broader instability extremism that diminishes a human rights protections as a including religious freedom. So i if the if we can address these broader pressing crises Then unfortunately it's going to be the human rights that that are affected and are impacted severely. Thank you don free. Who has written a question but he's also raised. Its hands so don mono you just Yourself at say who you are and ask your question hi. I'm don free with the united religions initiative but also with the covenant of the goddess so. I'm curious practitioners neo-pagan witchcraft fall under the witchcraft category. That's currently illegal. In many african and south asian countries or it's often punishable by death and i know from personal experience that the communities in such countries are very underground does usurp looking against accused witches in assessing a country or non governmental entity as that included under religious rights. Thanks thanks for that question I can i can start. And then if if i want to time but the short answer is is yes under a freedom of religion or belief as protected under international standards It's an individual right to believe or not to believe as one's conscience dictates And very clearly under the international texan interpretations It applies to all beliefs There's not sort of distinctions. Made between quote unquote traditional Beliefs versus nontraditional beliefs et cetera. Some countries do legally make those distinctions. But they're problematic under the international standards. So we we have Reported on Ac accusations of witchcraft or sorcery in in different countries in our reporting And i believe the state department has as well and there are reports over over the years in in in different places so so absolutely as long as people are You know peacefully practicing Their their own beliefs and exercising of their conscience. It is protected. Thank you let's go to karenna gore. Who.

I hope you survive the ad break as well. we're going to talk. About current events and net flicks is getting into video games. The company is looking to do more with interactive entertainment. Ever since they found success with bander snatch They all vander snatch have not watched it. Basically choose your own adventure but it's a video. Okay call so. They approached several veteran game industry executives to help with their expansion into video games. They're considering a bundle game service much like apple's online subscription. While the stranger things game wasn't successful they may have more success. If they have a gaming executive on board yes speaking a stranger things i remember i played the what was the benef- mobile game briefing. He came out right before the second season. Yeah that thing was fun. It was basically a like legends. Zelda obviously plays like little kids in like indiana but yeah yeah he said you should check us down. Check it out for war but yeah. I guess everyone is trying to get into gaming google's trying to do it. Apple's they've been doing it you know it's just writings on the wall man. That's where the money is equal videogames. Surprise surprise all right then from my story. Apparently japanese children are playing more video games on school days. So according to new survey conducted by the health ministry of japan iron number of japanese players have been playing video slash mobile games on schooldays. Then children of the same age did in twenty eleven. The percentage of children born in twenty ten that play video games on school days has risen the seventy four point eight percent which is up from the sixty five point. Two percent of children born in two thousand one when a similar survey conducted nine years ago the health ministry conducted the most recent survey last year. Where some twenty six thousand children were asked about their gaming habits the most recent survey which had a ninety two percent response rate show that thirty eight point seven percent of the respondents claim to play video games or between one and two hours on school days while nine point eight percent reported playing between two and three hours. there's also the survey also indicate that civil parents are concerned about the rise of the children's game of their children's gaming at its as part of the survey parents were asked which aspects of the children's lives there most learned about it percents named the amount of the amount of time the children spend either watching. Tv or playing video us. This is a steep increase when compared to thirty four point. Four percent appearance who named similar concerns during the two thousand eleven survey. The rise in video gaming seems to coincide with a civil rise in the number of fourth graders have access to their own mobile phones. Thirty two point. Eight percent of the children surveyed in twenty twenty reported having mobile phones while only fourteen point four percent chosen from the twenty eleven survey made the same claim so surprising. No one in the past nine years play more video games. Can you believe the general. Wow really but i think japanese culture. It's kind of interesting because their culture is pretty strict in regards to like education. You know yeah and So i don't know if this is a sign of things relaxing a little bit or what might be going on things. More of a sign of i think via games are just more accepted as a. It's a it's a quote unquote more appropriate leisure activity back in the day. People are like ok through reading books while now we're watching. Tv was getting a bit but everyone's watching tv than people are on the internet and people are playing video games. And you know just think like it has these activities. Become more and more common than they're not going to be seen as disassembly as much of a distraction from studies. You know what. I'm saying right. Yeah also japan's a huge place for video games in the first place but some non overload that you know. I mean playstation nintendo report from there. I mean gosh. What's that store of their super potato. Visit a super potato potato spot. Yeah so many video games. Including i think a lot of our stuff from member practically. That's what i was thinking. The richard gaming. They have all kinds of stuff. Yeah so super tatum. If you're in japan that out check out. I guess i guess they have one coming up in orlando by nil. In japan. they have the super mario world already. Oh yeah that that too. So i mean japan's kind of hot for video games in the first place. I can't say it's a huge surprise though if mike called some interference with their strict education culture. Maybe think the thing is too is. The survey was talking about video games and gaming gaming way more popular than like console and pc gaming way more people are playing on their phones. Like you both my parents. Every night they play games on their ipads and stuff. Yeah which i find interesting. Because i parse creed don't enjoy mobile gaming as much as i do. Pc gaming or console gaming however mobile gaming as a huge ship. Place for casual gaming. Yeah because you know you can do it. You know in bed. You can do it on the bus you in school when no one's looking You know you working from home. It's just you know just the simple does whip out your phone play candy crush or whatever. Then that's that you know so. There's probably a huge increase in casual gaming there. We don't have that data to know for certain. But that would be my guess. I mean i think he's just gaming in general like i said you know gaming like that's come that's become mainstream now look for before making millions of dollars playing college. The and stuff. Oh yeah and it's just it's just like i said i think it's finally become. It's i think it's seen as more of a legitimate art form at this point you know. Yeah definitely i back in the day people like. Oh you're playing video games they have funded you know clicking your coins and jumping on turtles but now it's like you know you see the they have out now. They're like really deep. It enriching late narrative experiences. Like it's crazy. Yeah no. I mean at one time. The only way you'd make money and video games was by creating video games when you can still do that but now you can make money. I mean it takes a lot of our. Don't get me wrong but you can make money on switch as like a game strimmer contact creator playing the games you know Just all sorts of ways to do it now and.

Basically she second in command at veterans benefits administration so veterans benefits administration. Va that's your va. Va home loan disability compensation of oak rehab life insurance transition assistance and speaking of transition assistance marguerita has a lot of different advancements in military to civilian transition and also suicide prevention to include. What we're talking about today and that is the. Va solid start program so margarita. It is so good to have you. I just want you to want you to take a few minutes and introduce yourself but is so great to have you here. Welcome to we served now. What inky so much. It's really my pleasure to be here. Thank you for inviting me to be on this podcast And i guess what. I areas like to tell people as i've been in the va for twenty five years It's my passion to serve veterans in in various different roles throughout my career. i'm also mom of inactivity serving marine And also the mom of a college student Dad was a navy veteran brother served in the army so Military family close very close to my heart this mission so really happy to be here and talk about the solid start program haas of also weived definitely excited to have you and again on this show. We do our best to answer the questions that veterans and their family members are already asking and one of those questions is what is the. Va solid start programming. And that's question. Maybe we can just lead off with that. What is the. Va solid start program. Absolutely i'm happy to just dive right into that. so solid. The solid start program is really part of the military to civilian transition journey. That really looks at the fact. That transition does not end when you get the d. to fourteen at the end of your military service in fact those of you who have served you know this right. That's really when everything starts to actually happen and no amount of preparation With the military can really prepare you for what what your situation is gonna be like after we heard this from veterans so this program really seeks to connect with veterans in that first year after separation starting at about three months and then we follow up beginning six months in a year and it really is an opportunity for us to start out with. How is it going for you. How's your transition going. How're you doing what's going on in your life. What are you worrying about. And really letting the veteran drive the conversation about what he or she needs the moment how it's going and then our agents are very well trained to pick up on those cues from that conversation and provide that veteran with specific resources in guidance on how to continue their transition in the most successful manner. Possible that is that is huge. I remember. I remember when i got out at the end of two thousand fourteen. It was a kind of a drinking from the fire hose. Except i didn't even know what i was supposed to be drinking. You know it's like hey here's a bunch of benefits you might be eligible for good luck and so it's funny so we started this podcast in the summer of two thousand eighteen and it wasn't until i started this podcast and started doing some research that i learned about more benefits. I could've taken advantage of when i first got out. You know four years prior and so the fact that this this solid start program is tackling that specific issue. I think is great. So what what. Problems specifically is the program trying to solve will it is really a suicide prevention initiative and it came from the fact that we heard from veterans. That sort of felt like all the services and support sorta stopped When they separated from the military and because it was like drinking from a fire hose. They really didn't know where to go to do And who to connect to and it was really difficult for. Va to connect with veterans who were not engaging with our with our systems already so we entered into this agreement with department of defense and homeland. Security is coastguard is under homeland security to get data feet of all the military members when they were separating so that we can start those phone calls so that we can call everybody and by the way we do call everybody that we have information for that includes regardless of character discharge We will call these veterans and we will make sure that they get connected to services and resources that are that are specific to their needs so again suicide prevention. We recognize that. There is a a real. There's a reality about transition stress Which is very different than what you might think about with clinical rate with post traumatic stress disorder. Which is a clinical diagnoses Comes with its own required treatment in the mental health arena. But this is just It's stress around. All the life changes that happened with transition. And what you said you know sometimes they. You're hearing so much about so many benefits while you're in the process of separating that when you get out you might not realize that you didn't take advantage of all of them right right. That is so true. That is so true. So so the the tap program transition assistance program or the army's version i think is a cap or something. It is this part of that is essential that the tap program still exist. How does it factor into all that. They're they're connected. They're two separate things but connectors so the transition. Assistance program does still exist Dod really owns and operates. Don on any of the military services of course puts their own branding on their part of the program via has an entire day where we come in and we teach about. Va benefits was really great. We were able to get it to a full day. Always didn't always look like that but even in that full day where we teach it's really It's a classroom experience right so you're Before covid you were in a room with twenty twenty five other service members and as much as we try to make it engaging and make sure that the servicemember can tie all the benefits to their own personal situation using interactive workbook. All of those things. It still was a classroom experience. A not individual not one on one We do still have benefit visor. Available for one on one support with and they. They advertise that during the class. Now when we went into the code environment we go to virtual So we we are still pretty much in the virtual environment. We've we've started working on getting a little bit more in person presence with tap classes but of course as you can imagine Safety is the number one concern And so we think about this way. Transition assistance program is about teaching. You what you might need to know and getting you prepared in the right mindset for transition. Solid start is like okay. Now we're gonna talk to you after this happened after you got out of the military to see. How are you doing ended. All that stuff makes sense. What questions do you still have. And it's one on one so rather than having to listen to what everybody has to listen to if you already have a job and that's not your concern or you're already in college and using your education benefits that's not your concern but maybe you need to get into a medical appointment. You don't know how to navigate. That will work with you on justice. If that's what you need is maybe you have issues with your children. You need some some other resources. We have access to information about state department of veterans affairs benefits that can sometimes filling gaps were. Va can't Provide a service to really is personalized the comments we hear from veterans. I know you've been seeking feedback from veterans. As well is that they're surprised that va's calling and they're so thankful for it because they were maybe not sure who to call her how to ask about a particular benefit so it's been really interesting seeing the positive reaction from our veteran community. Absolutely and you know. I think that you know this is my opinion. You based on my own experience and the experience of know friends and other veterans who gone through the transition systems program. There are getting ready to get that to you to fourteen right. So all of those briefings. I shouldn't say all but a lot of those briefings are at least in the transitioning servicemembers. Mind it's it's a check the block it's like all right. Let me just get through this thing. So i can go home. Take off this uniform for the final time and get on with my life so the fact that you're contacting them throughout that first year i think they're going to be a whole lot more receptive to hearing. What the benefits are. Because it's not like you're not keeping them from you know from going home you know. You're not you're not saying. Hey you have to be here. This is your place of duty right now. So you mentioned covid nineteen and a lot of things have gone. virtual has there been any other impacts to the program. I know the program still pretty new but have there been any other impacts of the program as a result of the pandemic like are you behind or ahead or anything like that. A solid start actually was in a great position to react effectively to the covid nineteen situation. All of our agents were telework ready and all of our equipment works from telework standpoint. So they haven't skipped a beat they are not behind. They are on target When we first created the program we weren't sure what kind of response we were gonna get so when we created the program We we have to have a performance measure right so we said well. How many people do we really going to answer. The phone won't va calls. You know think about yourself right if your cell phone rings and you don't recognize the number what's the chance you're gonna answer it. Probably not your let it. Go to voicemail right. And if that person's important deli new message so we kinda thought we might get that sort of a reaction so we kinda started. Set the bar low. We said fifteen percent our goal was fifteen one. Five fifteen percent of veterans we reached out to we would be able to actually engage with. They would answer the phone and engage with our with our representatives. It's been just phenomenal. The actual result actually have your with me the december twenty twenty report since we began the program. We have reached over. Eighty seven thousand veterans and the fiscal year. Twenty twenty today fifty seven point. Five percent have responded and engaged. Yeah i know it's it's been just an incredible Response and we also prioritize veterans. Who we know from the information from dod if a veteran had mental health appointment In that last year of service before they left the military prioritize them and we also know that for that population. We need to make sure we get them connected into. Va healthcare and with that sub population. The percents even higher seventy three point. Six percent have responded to our agents and our end have engaged with them on the phone. Wow that is really really great. How surprised were you at the at the numbers when he finally saw them. In the beginning. I was very surprised. And then you know we had a town hall with are Representatives the ones who are actually making the call and it was really interesting. Many of them are veterans themselves. Some of them are you were military spouses. And some of them even used to work in the tap program and and they're so passionate about their work and they're always submitting new ideas about how to improve the program here in the anecdotes That they shared with me about what some of these veterans were telling them and how grateful they were for this phone call. One thing we do is we did put it on the caller. Id so in most with most cellular services You you'll it'll save veterans affairs on your phone so you kind of notes the. Va calling so kind of helps to increase the the response rate but yeah. It's it's been an amazing response for veteran for so happy that this program is reaching them in making impact. Yeah definitely that's great. That's great so. Va solid start. It's for those who are basically brand new to the civilian world right so for those of us like myself and a lot of our listeners who are not newly separated what resources are available for us for helping us understand available that that we can take advantage of so a couple things you're right. Solid start is for those that are recently separated so for veterans of any era. Were here for you as well. And you know i always. I'm always very sensitive to that that you know if you Or vietnam era veteran. We care about you. We want you to call us if you if you never got connected to your benefits. Please call us and we will walk you through. There's a main toll free number which is one eight hundred eight two seven one thousand and that is our main call centre. Those agents are trained across the entire portfolio benefits as well and they will help you identify. What eligibilities you might have In the benefit side and they can even connect you to healthcare If you if you haven't signed up for your healthcare so they can. They can kind of connect you regardless of when you got out of the military And if you are a veteran that just got out in the last year and you haven't gotten your solid start call. I say the information we get from dod his last information we had about the servicemember. Sometimes people change their phone number They changed their email address. We do try and reach out by email First before we make that first phone call so call us. And if you're in that last in the first year after separation just asked to be transferred to the solid start program very cool very cool and you just taught me something with this eight hundred numbers at eight hundred eighty two seven one thousand right cracked. Okay so i could you know after we finish this conversation i could off here. I could call that number and find out the benefits that i'm eligible for. Maybe i'm not taking advantage of. Yes and really. What what they're gonna do is they're going to ask you some questions. What type of benefit are you thinking about. you know. and because we haven't education call center so if you said hey. I'm really wondering if i'm if i'm eligible for the gi bill. They'll transferred to gi bill experts. Right if you say well. i'm really kind of thinking. What kind of employment types of benefits or what about disability benefits So you know they'll help you with those benefits. It's a little bit different than solid. Start in that There are more got react to what you're needing in the moment whereas are solid start agents are trained to sort of prompt And get information out of the veteran to help navigate the whole suite of benefits they might be entitled to and i also wanna say your state department of veterans affairs. They have offices in in different states. We have regional offices. One day hopefully will be able to meet in person again. But in addition there's the veterans service organizations in. They're out there to help. There's a lot of resources but yes feel free to call us. Anybody listening to podcasts. Give us a call one. Eight hundred eighty two seven one thousand and we'll try and get you connected to your benefits above love it and so speaking of benefits and this is it's kind of a curiosity question. I guess what is the most overlooked benefit that veterans typically. Don't take advantage. There's a couple and we actually make it a point to focus on these in the beginning They're time sensitive so one thing for example is life insurance benefits. There is a time limit on when you can convert your service group. Life insurance to veteran group life insurance. And if you don't do in that timeline you kind of miss the opportunity It's about a year and a half out from from when you leave the military so We tell them always about life insurance and that's always kind of a tricky thing right. Nobody ever wants to think about end of life. Especially you know you. A young twenty five year old veteran and twenty six year old. And they're thinking while life insurance okay. You know if they're single and they don't have a a spouse children they might not be thinking about it so we want to make sure they understand the value of having that life insurance policy and so that they make an informed decision potentially to take advantage of it another one is dental care the eligibility for dental care which is time limited in a lot of veterans miss out on that because they don't fully understand it so there's a couple of the ones that we know are are critical sensitive And honestly we've heard some some of our veterans who say they didn't file for disability benefits. Because they didn't feel like they should take that benefit away from another veteran so we do spend some time explaining that they don't take benefit from another veteran. It's a it's a mandatory benefit. Were any veteran. Who's eligible for the benefit and it also opens up the door for healthcare. And you know if you're young and strong now but but you know that you had injuries orthopedic injuries for example. But you're okay and you can kind of deal with the pain right now. Well one day you're going to need healthcare it might worsen You know this is. This is not a handout. It is an investment in that veteran. Making sure that they can stay strong and half the care that they need to to For the rest of their life if needed sure sure so that is some really really great information. But it's not every day that i get to to the principal. Deputy undersecretary for benefits at the veterans benefits administration or being translated. Second command right. So i have a couple of questions that they're they're along the lines of transition but not solid start specific right sure all right so one thing that i'm incredibly passionate about is helping veterans rediscovery since of purpose and meaning after the military and so finding that sense of purpose in that sense of meaning after military service is. It's really the single most challenging part of a chat challenging part of the transition and so one question. I wanted to ask you is how does the. Va help with this aspect of post military life. It's interesting that you bring that up because our research also validates that is one of the biggest challenges. In fact we did. We just started last year. A post-separation study of veterans. Who went through the top programme while they were in uniform to kind of see the retrospective look right. Because it's one thing we can really high marks in the classroom right there. The ninety six percent are highly satisfied with our tap class. But what we wanna do is wait to your veteran in the naski. Look back on and say okay now. How well prepared did you feel you were and we also bounce that against data to see are they employed you know are they using our benefits and we ask them for information about how they're doing so in that study we found the open comments that we got from veterans were very much around that loss of sense of camaraderie. That loss of sort of feeling that you're part of a community unit cohesion that you had the military you don't have that in communities today And just that that loss of sense of purpose and mission so we're just now starting to lean in to explore how the can help with that. We can't solve the problem ourselves right because we're not going to be that sense of community for them but we can connect them and we've been engaging with a lot of organizations nonprofits and via so organizations that provide that connectivity that sense of community in that sense of mission And we're starting those conversations to say. How do we infuse that into the solid. Start program so that we can start connecting veterans in a different way to give them that sense of community. they're looking for. It's really going to involve have to involve a partnership model via. Can't do this alone. Sure sure on love the fact that that the va is realizing this and is like you said leaning into that so now this is a this next question for you is potentially a touchy question. But i don't need to tell you that. A lot of veterans are like. I don't like the va about experience for those veterans who have had that experience or they're just like man. I've heard so many bad things. I don't even wanna try it you know. It's probably not worth the hassle. What what would you say to them if they were if they were asking like. Okay what should i do. Should i do anything. What would you say to them right now. A couple of things first of all. I wanna say avenues. Cells and good news typically unfortunately does not get the same kind of traction. There are so many good news stories out there. And if you look for them you'll see them. I would say comback triumphs again. It's not the same. va that. It was a few years ago. We have come such a long way in the healthcare system with the hospitals in the end the outpatient clinics in our regional offices are outreach is is so much different and we understand better how to improve the experience for our veterans. So i would say it's been a couple of years maybe had a bad experience comeback to us get another chance and if your experience is not absolutely stellar fabulous edit. It doesn't make you turn around your opinion of va. Reach out to us. And i would say in the healthcare system. We have Advocates in every medical center. Go talk to the patient advocate. Tell them about your experience. Let us change something. If there's something specific that's not quite right. Sitting in our via regional office asked to speak to the leadership team. We have lead dan so hard on getting feedback from veterans and making changes across the entire enterprise. It's it's just not the same. Please try again in comeback. That's what i would say. Sure sure so of just just anecdotally right so my family. And i we live in alabama and so my closest a regional center is in birmingham. And so you know i. I've been there a lot over the past few years. And when i compare the service and the facilities and everything like that to a to a more local hospital more local medical facility. It is night and day difference. I mean bring. Va clinic is just top of the line. So it it is really an and again. I know everyone is different but it even from. When i used to go to the va we lived in texas to go into the va. Here it is. There's so many positive changes that have been made in at so honestly i'm really really happy with with the facilities and the care receive and everything like that so glad to hear that. Yeah absolutely absolutely so what's a big takeaway here right. So what does something. All veterans and newly separated veterans or. Otherwise what should they really remember from our conversation. Today i would say remember that. Va is here for you We probably have a benefit or a service that you might not have been aware of And we wanna be there. We want to be partners in your military civilian transition. We want to be partners in your life and help you with any issues that you might have. We're not the answer for everything But we also have connections with community resources and just reach out to us if if you need anything don't try and go it alone and again if if you had a bad experience in the past comeback to us i promise you it should be a much better experience now and like i said if there's anything you encounter that that you have an issue with let us know we're here to be part of it. I mean my personal story. My brother who is an army veteran wouldn't go to the. Va for the longest time. I finally got him to go and he's been so thrilled he was. He calls me up and he's like says they're offering me services that i didn't even ask for. They're they're doing this. They're doing that. And i said yes. That's what we call wraparound services when you come into a va. We are not just looking at the problem that you presented with. We're gonna ask you how else we can help you. And he's been so impressed with that. He wishes he would start in the. Va system a long time ago. It really is We've really made some great advances. So please come see as awesome awesome so here on the show. We like to give our listeners. Some practical next step. So when this podcast finishes playing what should they. Do you know the context of our conversation today. What should they do because today's question is. Hey what's the. Va solid start program. And obviously you've answered that more than we could ever imagine and in so having you on the show has been just absolutely outstanding but what should their next steps be right after listening to this podcast. I would say if you're curious about the benefits and services we offer You might try to going to our website. Www dot va dot gov easy to remember And when you go to. Va dot gov. You'll see sort of things grouped into logical sort of life domain issue. So you'll be able to kind of navigating see. Wow you know what is what does the. Va half for me.

Historically Thinking
"twenty report" Discussed on Historically Thinking
"Over a century scottish common sense philosophy had a major impact on the american colleges starting in the very late colonial period and moving on all the way into the late nineteenth century in some senses with these arguments for mental discipline so obviously the scottish common sense. Philosophy is a product of the scottish enlightenment and so forth but along with this this idea of faculty psychology faculty psychology associated with scottish commonsense. Philosophy again is going back to this. Mental discipline Argument is that the about kind of mind that human beings possess and the idea that the mind has certain faculties The sensibilities the will The imagination Memory and so forth and that a college education should be chiefly about The greatest training for these individual faculties and so this becomes a very common argument beginning in eighteen. Twenty eight with the so-called gail reports which was an attempt on the part of the faculty of yale university in the administration of yale university to tamp down the arguments against the classical humanities and so they came up with this notion. Well they're not the first ones to offer. But they popularized this notion that latin and greek need to be retained as does mathematics as well because they offer the best training to the largest number of these and again as i attempt to argue over the course of the book. This is a skills based argument. That doesn't focus on content. At all that actually ultimately undercuts the humanistic tradition in part because the humanistic tradition focuses so much attention on content on masterworks.

A Way to Garden with Margaret Roach
Seed Shopping With Nate Kleinman
"So to give people the history of experimental farm network. I'll share the link to our chat last year so they can dig a little deeper The transcript of that show so we don't repeat ourselves but very briefly. It's more than a seed catalog. I mean really. it's much more than a seed catalogs. So what's the quick elevator pitch on what you do so we started in twenty thirteen and our purpose is to facilitate collaboration on sustainable ag research and especially plant breeding we are really focused on developing perennial staple crops. To help with fighting climate change things like perennial grains perennial oilseeds Perennial vegetables and The seed company side is what funds are work. We don't really reach out. Seek grants and much in the way of donations. Were really focused on being a sustainable nonprofit cooperative through seed sales so we really rely on Exclusively on on selling seeds and We do a number of other projects as well. We we work on remain creation projects returning seeds to the people from whom they came originally We do we do quite a bit of Food justice work and we At the beginning of the pandemic we started an organization called the cooperative gardens commission which worked all of last year to provide free seeds to folks and to help facilitate resource sharing to get people the resources they need to grow food themselves and that continues the collective that that is running cooperative gardens commission is still still going we just released twenty twenty report a forty four page document on our website coop gardens dot com and Yeah pfm just really started our seed catalog the other day not that you're busy or anything. So they'll give the links to all of that all of those different things as i said so. I know i shouldn't have any interaction. Probably even if mentioned that green fleshed winter squash. Because i think it's already sold out. But when i saw you post a photo of it on instagram awhile. Back split into in there. It wasn't kind of looked like a butternut but it was green inside. And i thought what in the world and i think it helps from like guatemala or something but it just spoke to me about and that's why i got back in touch with you. It has spoken about like all these oddities and wonders of genetics. And that you have these growers breeders selectors curator sort of care people caring for all his genetics and So tell us about some of the other wonders of the world that are in the catalog this year. Thank you yeah. We're very excited about that. When we really just wanted to get it out there. And i can't say i expected it to sell out in the first day i be popular but that that exceeded all my expectations and is truly beautiful. Beautiful squash This year we are. We are released. I think one hundred and forty six things that we have never had in the catalog before Some of them. Nobody had in any catalog before. So we're really excited about that We have we have quite a few in the in the grains category this year including number of upland rices or lowland rice that will grow in dry areas and in northern areas. We have a rice from poland and other couple from japan. One from russia and We're just thrilled to be offering these because rice's Rice's really great crap and it's actually something that homesteaders can grow on a on a relatively small scale. It's still produce of calories themselves

COVID-19 in China: Researchers found an antibody prevalence rate of 4.43% in Wuhan
"A thirty four year old ophthalmologist from wuhan. China posted a message in his. We chat group alerting fellow doctors that a new disease had emerged in his hospital. A year later the pandemic rages on eunice. Yoon joins us now from beijing. Then while yunus how you doing. Hey jail We're doing relatively okay here The pandemic as you mentioned has been raging on overseas but here in china things are relatively back to normal. I'm here at a restaurant. Sports bar which i spoke to the owner and he said that back in january he could have actually thrown a baseball through this restaurant because it was so empty today. He said that seating capacities at about fifty percent. It's looking actually quite full. Now you mentioned that ophthalmologist. The ophthalmologist name was li wenliang. He's very famous here now because he was the one who had alerted other doctors in a we chat group of a mystery virus that had emerged in his hospital. He later was silenced. By police he then caught the virus himself and then he eventually died and of course that virus is the one that is now known as covid nineteen be economy though and businesses generally have been much much better since the beginning of the year. The economy is on track to Folks post some of the strongest growth compared to a lot of other major economies in twenty twenty one about eight percent but still life is not totally back to normal. And tell you that. Because just today i found out that my new year's eve plans have been cancelled and a lot of that is because we keep getting these mini outbreaks here in beijing. So we have twenty reported cases and one point two million people have been tested in the city and then on top of that. There's still a lot of controversy as you can imagine over the origins of the virus. And what exactly happened in hon. So yesterday the chinese cdc had said that the antibody prevalence rate for wuhan was four point. Four three percents so some experts were looking into that figure and saying that that suggests that in wuhan about half a million people which is about ten times more than the reported cases heavy infection or were exposed to covid as a lot of questions here and then this week. Another story that that people was that a local journalist was sentenced to four years of prison time because of her reporting and wuhan so obviously the authorities. Here don't want. The those types of reports should be conflicting with the narrative that they want to continue to perpetuate a here in china as well as overseas.

Amd took its highest amount of share sits q. Two of twenty eleven. This comes as an md has been experiencing still our financial results pointing to amazing growth and also follows intel's reset disappointing earnings report. Particularly when it comes to intel's desktop pc process ourselves looks like amd's doing pretty well. We think about that. I think that's awesome. I think competition is always a good thing. I'm not a particular fan boy of either company. Though the past few years i've been pulling for. Amd despite having an entire processor. But i've got a used server. Cpu not a normal desktops. Ep so really. I think it's great that amd's catching up again. I'm a fan of the underdog typically for good story right. Yeah definitely. I mean both. Amd until have issues. I'm not gonna lie. Yeah but i think this is great for. amd the great that they've been able to catch up with their processors intel needs get back in the game they've been having trouble with their Processes over the past few years trying to get by ten nanometer process. Amd's seven nanometer. Now okay. so it's like intel's have trouble gained lowered work okay. Well i'm sure they'll be able to figure something out all right. So speaking of that. Intel launches iris maximum. Gp's entry level laptops intel's finally stepping back into the dp business after two decades shipping. Their gpu in oem laptops. They've lost her irish exc- max. Graphic solution is designed to complement intel's x lp integrated graphics into the tiger lake.

So this is really meant to be position as game solution but more of a mobile content creation solution helping in applications such as handbrake to pixel image up sampling software other productivity increase tasks still. The susceptive compete with nvidia. His latest generation entry level solution. Mx extra fifty baby steps. You now baby steps. I think it's good. They're getting into that at least the contact creation. Dps yeah that'll make some money from that you know Contact creators want to have that. Gps helps speed up the rendering process. Yeah for sure. Yeah crazy like how much you know. You're seen as far as content wise as far as like rendering like you know Special effects three d images all kinds of stuff on to. Yeah it's pretty wild well even with just regular video editing like you don't need that powerful of a graphics card to render to to speed it up you know just any dedicated. Gpu yeah that's going to speed up the rendering process for the youtube videos or wherever you go to upload videos. Yeah for sure. I mean. I know i've i i remember like years ago. I was up like youtube all day. You know i'm sure by now. It's probably caught up. Yeah so even though intel's not competing what's the gaming. Gps yeah you know they're going to compete with the likes of like Gatx Was at ten thirty. I think it was something like that. Okay but that's Example of what they compete with. I think you know hard. I mean it's lower in cars. Obviously these different products that are needed for situations. Yeah so apple's secret button.

Marketplace Morning Report with David Brancaccio
Why Hong Kong's protesting youth are so angry
"Hundreds of protesters are staging a sit in outside. The school of a teenager who was shot by police during violent clashes on Tuesday. The student was the first demonstrator in Hong Kong to be shot with a live round in almost four months of protests he said to be in stable condition today the resentment though among young people is partly fuelled by growing economic comic inequality as the BBC's charisma twenty reports in a night market on the streets of Kowloon. I need a group of young students. I had about their phys for the future. CIA Won't be changed my family's life because in Hong Kong. They have to work hard to pay the hydrates of full ties. Now I cannot do it. Even when I graduated from the university I will live with these issues aren't why young people are taking to the streets but it has fueled their resentment kind of a system. Bayfield has neglected them. John Waco is a lecturer at Hong Kong Polytechnic University. He's published a report on job. Prospects and wages ages for young people in Hong Kong over the last thirty years in that period of time starting salaries for fresh graduates have largely stayed the same while property prices prices have gone up tenfold. Our economy is dominated by a handful of powerful families. We looked to IM- wes gene high tech industry. Young people want to get into the high tech industry. They're not a lot of good chances for them. There's perhaps no better illustration of Hong Kong's housing crisis than if you wander through a public housing estate. This is one of the most expensive cities in the world. Take on a flat more than half of Hong. Kong's households can't afford to do that. These public housing estates were meant to be the solution but there's simply simply not enough of them. Stanley one has joined me here to tell me why that's the case as the former chairman of Hong Kong's Task Force on land supply. He was tasked with solving elving the housing crisis. He says there's more than enough land in Hong Kong. Developers hold most of it but have no incentives to build public housing. If they develop into residential housing on a private basis they fared ten times as much for public rental housing they would and lower the prophet roughly about five times mm smoking all of this has contributed to the highest inequality rate in Hong Kong in forty five years. The government now recognizes it needs to fix things but it may be too little too late
