t needs to be worked on or finished or just enjoyed and it's welcoming it's not a difficulty it's not some past trauma that you need to sort out it's a welcoming thing and the sitting room we associate with ease and with socialization and with families so it's all that area so without asking i mean to do interpret a dream properly we could take a good 20 minutes i get that now i understand that but on the top level and perhaps you're you're telling yourself that you need more time to just rest and socialize and you know welcome people and that side of life so i don't know how that sits with you yeah i can give my interpretations but they'll sit with you are they wrong do you know i get you and that's that's but it is just an area that fascinates us let's go to a listener's one if that's okay now and i've heard this one a few times i've been having consistent dreams for the past while of my teeth falling out i wake up every morning all flustered and checking that they are still intact can that mean anything yes it's a very common dream believe it or not it's it's new there's two dreams that are right neck and neck for the most common in Ireland so far as i have experienced and that's one of them the teeth falling out and it's um teeth first of all when you have something in the dream you say what does it do so teeth they're first survival because we eat with teeth and therefore indicating how we are are we smiling how is our mood or are we snarling they can even be uh fighting you know we can bite if necessary so they're really really precious if you don't have teeth you've lost an awful lot you know so when we're looking at them falling out there's big insecurity about an area of our lives so we need to know more about the dream where was the person when the teeth were falling out were they eating were they putting on makeup where they you know and that will give us an indication as to what part of their life needs the healing or they're delving into and help on excellent right so uh if it were socializing maybe they have difficulty socializing or it could be about appearance or whatever now i'm not saying that but that's where the context that's where the context comes from okay blend i keep dreaming that i'm at a funeral and it's either that of my brother or daughter i can see all the events of the wake and funeral now thankfully neither have any illnesses so why would i be replete why would i be repeatedly having this uh dream okay the first time that somebody dreams about a close somebody closer than dying they get terrified and wonder is it a premonition dream but if it's a premonition dream you know that you have those type of dreams you understand the difference they feel different to a sorting out dream you know so when we dream that somebody has died we think of that person and the person is only in the dream to help us to understand ourselves so we think of two or three traits of that person and what is it let's say it's the daughter and their daughter is energetic and studious let's just say those things too well then you look at yourself and you say what part of me am i concerned of because there's a fear that this energy or our wisdom or our studying is dying off it's not getting the attention that it needs or if it's the the it's interesting that it's a male and a female in our life and sometimes she's worried about her female side sometimes her male side so you look at it and you know you take the traits of the person and say am i doing let's say it's anger okay you associate the person with anger am i angry too much do i have to look at that am i misdirecting my anger or do i need to actually acknowledge my anger so it's always is it too much or too little and you can look at yourself after that right i've had a dream a few times now about a ball chasing me and i presume this could be replaced by a dog or whatever else it might be i try as hard as i can to run away from this ball and to get to safety i'm breathless and when i think i'm safe the ball comes along and crushes me against a fence i then wake up and obviously they feel distressed what could this possibly mean well the ball is a huge big angry animal and we don't have much defense against a ball so this is something that's huge in the person's life that they really want to face they're running away from it and running away from it doesn't work because they end up crushed they need to turn around and actually face the the difficulty now when we talk about a ball it's male so without being able to delve into it with the person it could be um a male in her about saying her in in their life either present or past sometimes we're dreaming about something that's happened way back and the person might even still be alive but it's still bothering us it's still knocking on the door to be resolved so if i was working with that person they would delve into more and more and find out exactly what is that ball representing but it's something that she's our he is very frightened of and knows is very real and needs to actually process and heal and work through yeah and you can get more information about allison at allisonburnhealing.com as well by the way i'll remind you that towards the end mostly when you engage with someone and you dig through it and it might not land with the first interpretation that you give and then you tease the conversation out more with the person it does it invariably can you make the connection between a dream and something in in their life uh because we the mind is so complex it doesn't always deliver things to us on a plate all i can tell you is my experience and i haven't yet touch word worked with somebody that we couldn't find what was the core issue of the dream and we might have two or three different ones different meanings but the core one is the important one drowning a few people talk about dreaming of drowning drowning is a very difficult one water in general you see when we're talking about dreams i can say what things mean in general but it might mean something different to the person so yeah it's very specific yeah if we're doing general water can represent emotions and life you know life giving water and spirituality so it's the person is drowning in them now i can't imagine them drowning in either of the other two but the emotions could be a difficult one so again we'd have to find out where was the person did the water just come like a tsunami was it a lake was it they're bad you know to find out what part of their life they feel that they're drowning in the emotions of the emotions of too much if you think of water like tears like it's it's too much yeah and i presume to again and this is why it's complex and it is great to get sort of these insights but we do understand fully that you need to chat it depends on our interpretation of what drowning means as well it's so we're dreaming about drowning for me it could be the panic of a lack of air but for another person drowning could be the pressure of the water or something so presumably then it could have a different meaning so you'd need to find out what drowning in their you know the the conscious of subconscious actually means to them here's another interesting one i'd love to know why i dream that i can't lock i can't lock the back door no matter how hard i try the back doors simply won't lock and i'm also constantly dreaming that my car has been stolen i would love to know if there's any meaning to these dreams okay so this person is having a bit of a hard time really because the two things and to be feel safe and secure in your house you want your doors locked and you need your car if you can't find your car you're in trouble so this person is the subconscious mind is saying we really need to look at the basics of life the survival of life and what are my values you know you go right down to the core issues what are my values do they match the people that i'm with most of the time and if not why not and what can i do about it it's it's a very urgent dream in the sense that it's it's safety she can't lock the back door he can't lock the back door but i'm really sorry that we can't tell venture without more information i'd have to ask all sorts of things about the time of day the colors what they were doing before trying to lock the door where they had left the car all those things build into what it is it's no it's no help to say to somebody i you're worried about something sure that's no help at all we would you know in a dream interpretation proper we would go in and find out what and then do healing on my mother very sad to hear this this is not some other died three and a half years ago and they've got a recurring dream now of the mom dying in the dream and the role waiting for her to die but she's talking to us all in the dream so that she has sadly passed away but they're waiting for her to die they're all standing around but the mother's very lucid and speaking in in the dream well there's different things that this could be and again if we had the person we be chatting but it could be that they're still processing and there is no time limit on grief they could be simply still processing the loss of their mother or it could be that the mother is actually coming to talk to them in their dreams and that can happen when we're asleep this kind of this idea that we have that we only what we can see as real and everything else is rule you know that kind of idea that's gone with the resistance is gone so the they talk about the the veil between the spirit world and the physical world the spirits are find it easier to get through to us when we're asleep so it could well be his or her mom coming to give information to talk or simply just to to communicate to say I'm here so and with that we can't discount that because we simply do not understand no one understands about how our mind works especially when we have completely no control over it and then the thought of dying that all of a sudden this thing would cease you know that consciousness could cease that's almost harder to imagine than the the alternative if you know what to mean that this this consciousness separate from the physical being all of a sudden could like listeners try and think of not thinking it's impossible yet we presume and we've no evidence to suggest otherwise one way or other we presume that that goes that stops ceases completely immediately that's I find that almost unimaginable that my consciousness would no longer exist after I die and I don't mean that in a crossing over be it religious or otherwise but it's purely technically speaking and as I say there's no evidence to suggest otherwise other than a computer that reads signals from a brain right that's the only actual evidence on this earth to suggest otherwise I just cannot believe my consciousness ceasing if you were in my world you would definitely believe it goes on because one of the things I work with is past life trauma where and I know this isn't acceptable to everybody but I do believe it from working with many people that we live a life most of the time we sort it out and we start fresh in a new life but sometimes there's something that's hanging on from it that we didn't get to process properly and in this life we can go back and sort it out in that life and then this life is easier it's it's if it's interfering with this life so I do know what you're saying and I certainly agree with you now we'll get to a couple of relationship ones I'm dreaming my husband has had an affair it's right in front of me does it or could it mean anything okay well and 999 times at a thousand it's not an affair because our our subconscious does not talk straightforward it's always symbols so when you're talking about your husband you're talking about your own male side we all have a female and a male side and you'd be looking at okay the male side is the side that gets up get things done makes decisions powers through and the female side is the nurture care artistic side so that person is feeling that person's male side is feeling neglected and needs to have more done now this this happens I often get this dream with people when they have just had a baby with women when they've just had a baby and their their whole life is the nurturing side because it has to be and then their their male side will kind of say hey don't forget about me and that's possibly something that's going on with that person again more details we get more from another one on relationships I've been having dreams that my significant other is cheating on me in my dreams even worse though is that it's with one of my best friends from work who he's cheating with it's really upsetting and I'm wondering if my subconscious is trying to tell me something it's trying to tell you something but it might not be trying to tell you what you think you might be trying to tell you I wouldn't go arguing with the best friend or the husband because it is extremely unlikely that that's what's coming through in the dream it's much more likely that again we have to look at the male and the female sides and just like I said the male side is feeling dissatisfied in some way and trying to get sustenance from the female side now this sounds a bit gobbledygook I know what it does but let's say that the male side is feeling unfulfilled for whatever reason and instead of being able to say okay well now I'm going to change my life so that I'm now looking after the you know fairly balanced male and female that it has to get around a both way and sneak into the female side now really we would need the person to find out but is it possible also that say in a social setting that the three of them are out and they all get on well there's no flirting going on but that this person sees that they get on on a certain level if they've got something in common let's say that was happening in in the day is it also possible though that that might be interpreted a different way when we dream at night so in other words if a night out and you are jealous but you spotted that that your mind might interpret that a different way I know you're what you're talking about the male and female sides but also can it be something as simple though as as your mind trying to work out an emotion from during the day oh yes it could but it's more likely to be the more complicated because if you are dreaming and it's a simple processing chances are you're not going to remember that as clearly as you're dreaming and you're upset and it's the two people close to you and you're you're all you know in a tizzy about it so yes it is possible and it could be also the case but I'd be more interested in the more complicated one what does it mean if you keep dreaming about your ex right it could be two things one that you simply haven't let go and that you need to either address that with them move on do a cutting of ties or whatever it is or or stroke and it can be that the qualities that your ex have are the qualities that you need to look at do remember I was talking about earlier if you have somebody in the dream is the traits so think and I would only go down to say three qualities that they have pick out the three qualities and then have a look so let's say they were kind you look at yourself am I kind do I need to be more kind and particularly to myself it's easy for us to be kind to other people it's a harder thing to be kind to to ourselves and you do that with the other things too like let's say trustworthy am I trustworthy do I need to be more trustworthy but most particularly to myself if I tell myself I'm going to let's say is right do I stick to that can I be kind of trust myself only time for one or two more I dream of entering my parents bedroom but I find two different people in the room and I wake up then in a panic what's this trying to tell me okay so again could be many many things but at the top level it would be when we're children we absorb the values and the ethics that the parents teach us and the religion and everything and then as as old children adults are even very very old adults where our life is going in such a direction that we are safe to question is it actually right and the question may be yes I do accept what they talk me you know the basics of life or no now I'm thinking for myself I think this is right rather than that is right so it's a case of and you know the way people talk about pulling the rug from under you I'm not talking about that but this is looking at the rug that's under you looking at the very basis of your beliefs and your your morals and your ethics and seeing what's acceptable and what is time to change yeah okay and just a very last one because it might be bothering a listener I dream my niece has died and I'm not sure if it's because her mom and dad split up and the relationship is a bit difficult and I do fear losing my relationship with my niece so presumably they're on one side and they're concerned of access and stuff yeah yeah and that dream is nearly self-explanatory because a death in the dream is very often the end of a period the death of a phase of life and that is actually so if the couple have separated it is the death of that child's life as it was and that's where the listener is concerned for the child but it is quite it's what I would call as a self-explanatory dream that's what she the he or she is concerned with so that's what they need to actually work on if they can you know get in contact with the child and ensure as much as possible all right too short short question is what if you don't dream lots of people go you know they like go out of this dream last night they go what dreams as if it's some sort of a okay there's two possibilities there one is that the person is very good at processing things as they happen and very experienced and they don't have a store of things when they go asleep that they have to kind of flick through and sort out and the other side of it is maybe there's so much in denial that they can't go there and we can't say for somebody else which one it is do we sleep in do we dream all night or is it an REM deep sleep light sleep yeah phases we dream on average three to five times a night but that could be several dreams that in a few minutes you know yeah because sometimes you wonder does it all happen in real time etc or do you wake up as soon as the dream finishes or is that just the last anyway that's another rabbit hole we could go down there was one final lucid dreaming I sometimes feel I can fall back to sleep and pick up where I left off in a dream do you know what I mean or that I can say all right I want this dream to go in that direction it doesn't happen too often um but what is lucid dreaming a thing lucid dreaming it's one of the tools that we have and if you can tip into it it's great because one of the reasons we dream is to modify what's going to happen you know the way sportsmen mentally visualize winning well we can do something like that in the dream we can visualize that the things that we're dreaming about are going extremely well for ourselves what's really really good is and there are meditations to help you to slip into lucid dreaming if that's what you'd like to do if that's your cup of tea if that's your thing all right allison people can get more information about allison's work who is a holistic

travel route 32 from letter kennedy dublin when you book online and travel for less expressway bringing you the time at it is 11 30 now an awareness campaign is being launched to make the Irish public aware of one of the most dangerous forms of cancer on world pancreatic cancer day experts are highlighting some of the symptoms associated with the disease including tome pains jaundice and new onset diabetes and older adults pancreatic cancer survivors and families of patients who have died are coming together to get the message out to get checked by a doctor as soon as you spot any of those symptoms symptoms one of those survivors is pamela dc who joins us on the program now pamela good morning to you thank you so much for joining us good morning how are you i'm doing fine pamela so what what is it do you do you think we need to know maybe it might help just to talk through your story a little bit because it is probably somewhat typical you were first diagnosed in in 2018 with pancreatic cancer was there anything in the the lead up to that that was an indicator um i suppose because of today being world pancreatic cancer day we just trying to get the word out basically that before i suppose pancreatic cancer was normally diagnosed in people in the age profile you know category of 60 plus both and that was a traditional way but now it's increasingly affecting younger demographic so this shift is trying to push us towards just highlighting the importance of um awareness and early detection amongst individuals of all ages um before my diagnosis i was extremely tired i knew there was something wrong with me but i couldn't pinpoint what was actually up i had gone to the doctor originally with and got my blood done because i said maybe you know in the summertime i was really busy with work and i volunteer with the my local rna line life boat station and i was to do stuff at the weekends and it was busy summer and i was pretty down to just getting older but then come september the like i had caught back on i suppose the weekend activities but the tiredness was becoming a big issue for me yeah before i could get up and do anything else so that was the one symptom for me i didn't you know um the tummy pain and the digestive problems or lack of weight or uh onset diabetes i didn't have any of those symptoms it was really the tiredness that kept pushing me to go and take care of you know that's really important because i think sometimes with the best win in the world when we talk about um awareness there's a whole list of symptoms and i don't think often it's messaged well enough that some all or none may be present if you know what i mean because some might go well i'm tired and weakness but i don't have weight loss and you know i don't have dark colored urine you know because we can sort of self triage if you know what i mean so it's any of the symptoms and i'll run through the main symptoms in a moment that we need to in and of itself take note of um well i suppose all the symptoms that you will call out it's just to be aware of them and have them in the back of your mind they might be anything sinister but it's just by us trying to highlight it you know if you hear of someone saying you know it's my my thing is always go with your gut i knew my gut that was something not right but because i had no ongoing symptoms you know i my bloods were clear and so there was nothing for me to worry about but i just knew over a space of like this is the couple of months and i had gone to the doctor a few times and um i was given you know medication because for an upset stomach but then my my upset tummy wasn't for two or three weeks it was kind of here or there yeah so my advice would be you're living in your body you know if there's a change in you know your bodily functions or if there's change in tiredness or you just can't cope maybe with things and everything seems to be getting you down if that's not normal for you and it's ongoing for a couple of weeks would go and see a medical practitioner and just have a chest and see where you go from there there is no currently there is no screening in place should there be is it the type of cancer where it would be practical to do so Pamela in your experience i i i suppose when i got diagnosed i wouldn't have known any of the symptoms pancreas cancer i didn't know much about it all i knew was that anyone that i had ever heard of my life who was diagnosed pancreas cancer none of them survived so i remember today i got my diagnosis which was the 7th of december 2018 i said to myself straight away that's it game over and i had all my scans and all my tests done during the week but like i had been to the doctor a few times i had my bloods done i had everything done in that line and they all came back here so i think there is nothing that will show it up i just knew by my tiredness that's the one thing that kept me going back to the gp and just in relation to the treatment um wipple surgery uh what is that if i've pronounced it correctly you have um wipple surgery is the at present the only life-saving surgery for pancreas cancer but unfortunately the cancer has spread through the pancreas by the time it's diagnosed it's a very hard one so for me luckily i developed jaundice okay at the at the beginning of the i saw the first week of december that's what pumped me to go to the doctor again but jaundice doesn't normally present until the cancer has progressed through your pancreas so um it's just my surgery then was 11 and a half hour surgery so it's a big procedure and it's basically a rewiring of my digestive system so in that surgery they removed piece of my stomach piece of my small intestine the head of my pancreas my spleen my gallbladder and the bile duct and all my lymph nodes associations around that area to make sure that i was cancer-free basically on that surgery day wow okay that's huge operation indeed but thankfully it it was a success for you you had that surgery on the 15th of august 2019 which was almost a year after first being diagnosed and and thank for now you're cancer-free for four years Pamela yes i have ongoing scans every six months i go back to my oncologist for scans and i you know i'm there's stuff that you know it's what my surgery has been life-saving but also life-changing it isn't an easy surgery by any chance and i have people ring me up to ask me you know about the surgery and everything before they go through it and there's no point in me telling somebody that it's a really easy procedure because it isn't it took me the best part of three years to get to the stage where i am now after that surgery i go step forward and inevitably to be a step or two back like i said if the you start at your starting point and you see the end in sight if you can go direct to the end you'll do very well but for me i found the scenic route it was the route that i took and it was long and meandering and it's it's a very hard one but i am so grateful to be here at the end of the day okay Pamela and i'm delighted that you're here and i'm able to speak to you and it just emphasizes the importance of as difficult as it can be getting diagnosed as early as possible Pamela i'll say goodbye to you and i'll list out the symptoms and other notes for our listeners but for now thank you very much and thanks for helping us to spread awareness on today which is national pancreatic cancer awareness day and continued good health to you Pamela no problem thanks very much and just one thing that i will say is that if any miss i close you know any person who gets the misfortunate diagnosis of having cancer my one thing is don't ever compare yourself to anyone else it's your own journey and everyone's journey is different stay away from googling do not compare yourself to anybody put your faith in your trust in the doctors because they know what they're at and please god your outcome would be the same as mine all right Pamela sound advice thank you so very much indeed so the symptoms of pancreatic cancer to look out for some or all or non might be present as well but belly pain that spreads to the sides or back a loss of appetite and weight loss yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes called jaundice which is really the indicator for Pamela that got her on the road to diagnosis light colored or floating stools dark colored urine itching new diagnosis of diabetes or diabetes that's getting harder to control pain and swelling in a normal leg which might be caused by a blood cut tiredness and weakness certain things that may risk your chance of getting pancreatic cancer age it's more common in older people but not exclusively smoking being overweight diabetes chronic pancreatous family history of pancreatic cancer which is not common workplace chemicals exposed to radiation aluminium acrylamide in the workplace more research they say is needed to prove this though and a family history of these conditions also increases the risk of hereditary pancreatous which is rare and a few others as well so stage one and this is where it's difficult it means the cancer is at a very early stage the tumours around two centimetres in size or less and found within the pancreas and there's no sign that it's in the lymph nodes or that it has spread outside the pancreas stage two the tumour is more than two centimetres in size it's now found outside the pancreas in nearby tissues like the bile duct and or the small bowel there's no sign of cancer in the nearby lymph nodes in stage three the cancer is spread outside the pancreas to nearby tissues it's also in the lymph nodes and may have spread to other body organs and this is why it can be so dangerous that's through the lymphatic system or your blood stream and stage four a the cancer is spread to nearby organs and vessels and includes the stomach spleen large bowel or large blood vessels and it's also in the lymph nodes and finally stage four b the cancer is spread to the liver and all the lungs and your doctor may refer to stage four as advanced cancer or metastatic cancer so as I say not to be fearful or worried but just to be careful as I say the likelihood is is that thankfully if you have some of those symptoms it's likely to be something else but don't leave it a chance and get it checked out and as Pamela said and it comes up time and time again from people you do have to trust you got watch the show live now on youtube facebook and at highland radio dot com

where it's gone i'll come back to the weather uh in a moment now it's popped up here for me thank good right i can tell you that turning cloud without breaks of rain developing in the west during the morning or early afternoon bright spells and showers will follow as rain clears eastwards by early evening temperatures six to eight degrees okay um clancy joins us on the program now clancy again sorry to keep you holding there um right okay uh you're asking did anyone watch your program on assisted suicide i think it's called assisted is the assisted dying is the preferred terminology um did you watch it clancy with interest yeah so that's very good i watched it early because my intention is to go down that road someday hopefully not for a good way yet but uh i have ms and it's just greatly getting worse now and losing power yeah the phone line's just dropping out there sorry you were just saying it's not your fault it's all fault clancy you're saying your your your symptoms are getting worse yes i get more solid and slowly slowly getting worse of last part of my legs now all together and um i just a little let it go so far and i'm going to have to go i think the end for the assisted suicide so you'll travel for it clancy yes oh well i i've had there were four of us at the one time here in jazderek but the ms around the one time and unfortunately the three have passed away and i seen what they went through and i have no intentions of going down that road have you discussed this with people around you clancy or has it come up in conversation oh yes i have surely yes i've told a lot of ones some people say them foolish most don't say them okay go ahead they all agree to it uh like you wouldn't want to see anybody suffering with ms if you knew what was coming yeah but i mean i've i've known but it's it's it's i see it's not forever it's some people with ms will not want to go down this route others will this is certainly you know it's a very personal decision i find it very difficult to argue one way or other because i'm not living your life clancy so i am completely unqualified to be able to say whether or not this is a path you should choose or not and and i think sometimes people who aren't in that position are too quick to jump in with an opinion do you get where i'm coming from clancy like it's you that that's living this it's you that has to make its decision or your decision doesn't really matter what greg yes i know what you're saying all right greg but as you say that's my decision and i what don't want to stay to go through what i see now people going through uh get out the quick way i think and have you thought about at what point you make this decision um sorry was that have you thought about like you know when would you decide to do it like if you said right when this ability of mine goes then i'm i'm going to go and down the route of assisted dying do you know what i mean you talked about you're okay now you've managed up to now but at what point do you think you would consider assisted dying well i just have to wait excuse me i'll have to wait and see just how it works out and how how bad it can get and i don't want to go completely down or getting full-time care and stuff like that i do have care now in the morning when the morning with us that i manage the rest of the day myself then and uh as long as i can do that i'll be happy enough to do it but when that decides to go i decide to go then too so really it's when you lose your independence that seems to be the benchmark for when you think enough is enough yep that is right yep if you can't look after yourself a certain amount and feed yourself and stuff like that i've i've seen it with other people and i know what it's like and there's no way i want to go down that road can i ask you what age category you what you know what decade of your life you're in um clancy um 67 i think you're in your late 60 whole care gets you and do you have uh again i don't want to be i'm not asking any private questions to just ignore them if you don't want to answer clancy but do you have close family that you've had to discuss this with or have you had this conversation with them or maybe you don't have close family oh i have i have four daughters right and what do they think well they seem to be happy enough they're not they're not known them says i want to mention they don't say oh no no you're doing that you know they sort of say it's up to yourself whatever you want to do so uh that's that's the way it is and that's what i will do and do you know have you researched what options are open to you how you do it where you would not not literally the the act of how you do it but where you would travel to or how all that works i mean is that information readily available yes i had downloaded a video there of uh three people think it was went went for the euthanasia i showed the whole thing right up to the end they had they had a salary good but they can't remember exactly where they went but they had a good bit to go um and they were further have their family with them i didn't think that was possible but they had their family around them one of the getting us uh getting through the euthanasia you know yeah so i would be happy enough to do that okay yeah of course but that makes it a little bit more difficult to suppose for the family but i mean you are obviously you've got the support of your daughters like do you think clancy if you wanted to you should be able to do that now no i wouldn't do it now you know i'm happy enough now as i am i've still got power in the arms and all the rest i have a motive about the scooter i can go about on here i can go to castle there or anywhere i want to go so i'm still fairly independent that way and i say i don't need much care in the morning you know so i'm happy enough to stay if i could stay the way i am i'd just stay as long as whatever right you seem just i mean you seem a complete piece with your decision if you know what to mean that it's it's not for me now i wouldn't do it now but i know when when i feel the time is right i've no doubt that that's that's what i'm going to do yes that's right whenever i start to lose power completely i can't feed myself and carry on as i got that today i say enough is enough does religion does religion play a factor in your life at all clancy or do you do you take any guidance from from religion at all no no i haven't people because i know what they would say yeah you can't do that you shouldn't do that to tell you and i know what to say about that so i haven't haven't discussed that with anybody priest or clergyman or anything else so right okay clancy listen i i wish you as good a health as as is possible with the awful condition that you have and it's in it's how do you sign off on a conversation like this clancy it's that you're at peace you're at peace with your decision so you know what what can i say i respect it because it's you that's living that life i'm not living that life so i i i just listen to you and learn from it that's that's all i can do yeah well that's hard to know was to say it's hard to know when you as you say sign off here but as day as long as i can as long as my health stays the way it is now but it gets worse that's it okay clancy listen best wishes to you i hope it's not for a very long time is the best i can say and i hope you understand it's meant in in the nicest possible way thanks very much clancy okay there's clancy what do you think i'll wait 60 25 000 that may well be one of the topics we discussed with the friday panel which we bring to you tomorrow morning from nine uh there's loads more coming up on the show to end off the week the working week it's not really the working week but you know what i mean the monday to friday working week uh so that's what we say goodbye for today for me greg hughes carol i know who researched and produced the show and uh shall i work in on the program too we'll be back with you as i say tomorrow


CHAPTER XX. OF THE TRAIL TO YESTERDAY by Charles Alden Selzer. This LibriVox recording is in the public domain. INTO THE UNKNOWN. After a time Sheila rose from the bunk on which she had been sitting and stood in the center of the floor looking down at her father. The coda had not moved. He stood also, watching Langford, his face pale and grim, and he did not speak until Sheila had addressed him twice. What are you going to do now, she said, Dolly? It is for you to say, you know.  Do? He smiled bitterly at her. What would you do? I have waited ten years for this day. It must go on to the end. The end? Yes, the end, he said gravely. He, the coda pointed to the prostrate figure, must sign a written confession. And then he will return to answer for his crime.  Oh, she said at last it will be too horrible. My friends in the East, they will. Your friends, he said with some bitterness. Could your friends say more than my friends said when they thought that I had murdered my own father in cold blood and then run away? But I am innocent, she pleaded. I was innocent, he returned, with a grave smile. Yes, but I cannot help you, you know, for I wasn't there when you were accused. But you are here and you can help me. Don't you see, she said, coming close to him? Don't you see that the disgrace will not fall on him but on me? I will make him sign the confession she offered. You can hold it over him. He will make restitution of your property. But do not force him to go back east. Let him go somewhere, anywhere, but let him live. For, after all, he is my father, the only one I ever knew. But my vengeance, he said, the bitterness of his smile softening as he looked down at her. Your vengeance, she came closer to him, looking up into his face. Are we to judge to condemn? Will not the power which led us three together, the power which you are pleased to call fate, the power that plays the trail which you have followed from the yesterday of your life, will not this power judge him, punish him? Please, she pleaded it, please, for my sake, for? For her voice broke, and she came forward and placed her hands on his shoulders. For your wife's sake? He looked down at her for an instant, the hard lines of his face breaking into gentle, sympathetic curves. Then his arms went around her, and she leaned softly against him, her head against his shoulder, while she wept softly. An hour later, standing side by side in the open doorway of the cabin, Sheila and Dakota watched in silence, while Langford, having signed the confession dictated by Dakota, mounted his pony, and rode slowly up the river trail toward Lisette. He slowly passed the timber clump near the cabin, and with bowed head, traveled up the long slope which led to the rise upon which, in another time, Sheila had caught her last glimpse of the parson. It was in the cold, bleak moment of the morning, when darkness had not yet gone, and dawn, not come, and Langford looked strangely desolate out there on the trail alone, alone with thoughts more desolate than his surroundings. Sheila shivered and snuggled closer to Dakota. He looked down at her with a sympathetic smile. It is so lonesome, she said. Where, he asked, out there where he is going. Dakota did not answer. For a long time they watched the huddled form of the rider. They saw him approach the crest of the rise, reach it. Then, from the mountains in the eastern distance, came a shaft of light, striking the summit of the rise where the rider bestowed his pony, throwing both in the bold relief. For a moment the rider halted the pony, turned, clenched back an instant, and was gone.


Hey, this is Brett and this 2022 Ram 2500 Crew Cab Short Box Big Horn is stock number 13687Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. You're new and used heavy-duty truck and Ram headquarters. This 2022 Ram 2500 has the 6.7-liter Cummins diesel engine. It's paired up with the 6-speed 68 RFE automatic transmission. This truck has been fully-safety and inspected by our service shop, Prostate of Wisconsin Inspection Process, has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, and it is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around in this video, inside, underneath, start it up and take a look under the hood to give you the most accurate representation possible. Delmonico red pearl coat is a color, and I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities, turn them on now because it is your best way to check out the quality condition options and cleanliness of the truck before seeing it in person. This one is pretty much perfect. It has only 918 miles on it, and as you go down the driver's side you can see that the doors are absolutely perfect. Paint is very shiny and reflective, no dents or dings in the front fender, and if you like the video you can subscribe to my YouTube channel, which is youtube.com size Summit Auto. Click the bell notifications, you'll get updates on the videos I do each and every day, as well as access to one of the largest catalogs of vehicle walkarounds on YouTube. This one comes with the steel wheels, with the chrome covers, and it has Firestone Transforce HD tires, these are LT27570R18s, and they are like new, still can see a little bit of the wear knobs on there, like I said, only 800 miles on this truck. So frame and underbody is absolutely perfect. Coming around the front you get the chrome front bumper, the toe hooks up there as well. No major dents or dings on there, grille is in excellent condition as well, and the hood is absolutely perfect. Passenger side front fender, no dents or dings on there, and the passenger side front wheel, actually wheel cover, no scuffs or scrapes. Delmonico Reds got just a little bit of pearl flake to it, really a good looking color especially in the sunlight. And as you go down this side of this 2022 Ram 2500, once again take note of how clean that body is, how reflective and mirror-like that paint is. I take these HD videos, so if you are far away or even if you're close by, you just cannot make the trip down, but you're still interested in purchasing the truck. You can see the truck here, the truck end of confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here, so when you do get here there's absolutely no surprises. You can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. If this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesmen know that you saw the video that it was helpful and that Brett sent you back wheel, excellent shape, back tires just as new as the front ones and the frame and underbody, looks like it just rolled off the assembly line at the plant. It also has stickers on the frame, it also has a sticker on the exhaust like new under there. Comes with some KYX painted step bars, passenger side box, no dents or dings in there and coming around to the back, rear bumper, absolutely perfect, comes with the full towing package which includes a receiver hitch four pin and seven pin wiring. Tailgate is in excellent shape as well, it does have a backup camera on there. The chrome logos, the bed looks like it's never been used and you do get some nice side box tie downs. Maybe got a couple little scuffs right there but very, very clean back here.  Down the rest is side of the truck once again, doors are absolutely perfect, has the heated fold up tome or is built in directional signals they fold up like that. They manually fold in. So inside the big horn package gives you the gray and black cloth interior, no rips or tears on the seats. You get the 40, 20, 40 split bench seating in the front, factory floor mats, auto headlamps, power windows, locks, mirrors. You get the cloth bolster, wood grain trim and before I forget I'm going to show you the VIN sticker as well as the tire and loading information sticker, otherwise I will forget. There is that. Back seats are just as clean as the front seats, no rips or tears back here. It does have the latch child safety system for any child car seats you may have, fixed glass rear window, there are those latch anchors.  Side curtain airbags and child safety locks on the back doors inside and bottoms of the doors all look perfect. We'll hop inside, check out the miles, the radio and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. Like I said, only 918 miles on this truck, digital speedometer, compass display, instrument cluster is very clean, multifunction steering wheel, you get cruise controls and gear selector on the right, Bluetooth and information center controls on the left, comes with these six speed 68 RFE automatic transmission, push button four wheel drive, push button start comes with the Uconnect 5 radio, AMFM and Sirius XM radio capabilities and this is also where your backup camera shows up and you can see that they've made those HD crystal clear so you can get hooked up to your boner camper or trailer the first time every time and then you can even zoom in on the receiver hitch to make that process even easier.  Three cup holders on that center console and you get your glove box, passenger side format and seat are in excellent condition, this truck's never been smoked in, smells very clean inside and the headliner is in great shape, you get map lights right there and we'll start it up and take a look under the hood. Lights right up, no check engine lights or anything like that. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today and hopefully from this HD video you've been able to verify the quality condition options and of course cleanliness of this truck all the way around with only 918 miles, not too much that could go wrong but that's why we do the videos, you want to make sure right? Under the hood we have the 6.7 liter Cummins diesel engine maze, very clean, runs very smooth. Once again this truck has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop as a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off and this truck is 100% ready to go, there's the emissions sticker. And I would highly recommend this truck from a quality and condition standpoint, I'd chip this one to California, Texas, New York, Florida, whoever is going to get this truck is going to absolutely love it like a new truck for a used truck price.

One of the challenges that I that I really found is that oh my god we've created so much content how are we going to get people to see it? I am at the LinkedIn headquarters in the Empire State Building and I'm here with Tim Ellis the CMO of the NFL that's right the National Football League. Nice to be here. Yeah nice to have you here Tim. It's great yeah. Yeah last time I saw you we were in kind together and that was what June and it's September now. So Tim Ellis what's top of mind at the NFL? You know one of the reflections I had when I first came on board was that you know we we can't think of the marketing for the NFL as just being during the season or during our big tent full events is that we have to think about it year-round. We have to continue to build our audiences and we have to sort of find a way to engage people particularly younger people throughout the year and to feed them content and to work with influencers and so forth to just keep it keep the momentum going and one of the things that I saw this year which was super exciting was that during the off season somewhere around the summer where we normally see a dip right in fandom because we we track fandom throughout the year. We normally see a dip and then it comes back up when the season starts we saw no dip right so we saw it we saw it continue sustained it and then when the season started it was a nice big uptick so that's that's important and that was exciting. You were talking about all this cool thing all the cool things that you're doing with social media and your ecosystem 750 million people tell me a little bit about what's going on there. Well you know I took a very close look at social media and the influencers and I found that you know for the most part we were really leveraging our own earned and own channels and they represent about 50 million people which is pretty big yeah most companies would be very happy with 50 million base but then I said well let's let's take a look at the players and let's look at the clubs and let's look at colleges and let's look at all these different you know parts of the NFL ecosystem and and see what that might amount to and before you know it we were at about a count of 750 million right so suddenly you begin to see the potential if you can just find a way to tap into that and to build it and to leverage it and to coordinate properly it's you know it's unlimited potential yeah right so that's what we've have been doing a big part of that is basically working with players as influencers so a lot of what we've been doing is working with the players understanding what are their interests and hobbies and so forth and then we put them together with other influencers and then we serve them up content so they can use it on their on their own channels and it's been very successful in building up their fan bases right building up their audiences you and actually the CMO Kenny Mitchell are both on our DNI council so first of all thank you so much for for being absolutely so important yeah and you were talking about some cool things that you're doing with snap you want to talk about that it's our hundredth season for the NFL if you didn't know that so you know you have that beautiful hundredth logo in all of our stadiums and you know in all the different areas where we have events and so we've developed this AR technology together with snap or they developed I can't say we did but they developed it you lock in on the app with on the on that hundredth logo and then all we just unlock all this great content wow and people are having a blast you know the the amount of content that we have created is ridiculous for this hundredth you know anniversary and so one of the challenges that I that I really found is that oh my god we've created so much content how are we going to get people to see it right I mean like it's it's not just a matter like sending them to one place to take a look at it you really have to find opportunities to constantly feed it and to sort of get people engaged in and talk about it in order to to be successful yeah okay so there's a lot in there right so there's teams there's skills there's technology there's partners like how do you how do you actually think about your team and in trying to put your arms around this content and get it out there in the right way you know the teams the marketing team that's an interesting one I um when I saw what the NFL had to do in terms of like you know engaging in summons this is even re-engaging certain parts of their audience I realized that you know building a modern marketing team today is not what it was even five years ago right I'm finding myself I need experts in music right I need experts in fashion I need people who really understand the gaming world right to bring them in so it's different today it's not just like getting that you know that that person who has an MBA from Wharton to bring them in and maybe has some some time working for PNG or some one of the other big great brands it's about understanding how to build all these strengths in order to be truly successful with a you know a wide breadth of your audience and I wish I had more time to dig in with that and we're going to come back to you soon but before we go what is the best career tip you've ever received or given somebody told me when I back in the early 90s when I was working for a good to be Silverstein just really believing in the power of creative yes of course you have to think about the business you have to think about you know your audiences and and how to communicate to them but you also have to think about what's going to be best for the creative right and that sometimes means you know if the idea stage right and and how that comes to life and is it really a good idea or you know do you just need to put it aside and start all over again which is sometime very stressful particularly if you're on the account side if you're not a creative person how do you really help you have to really put yourself in the shoes of that creative person understand their world and then do everything in your power to help that creative product I thank you so much for stopping by I know it's been a busy week here for you thank you so much for inviting me I always I was love this yeah fantastic it was always fun to see you and thank you all for tuning in to Top of Mind


Hello and welcome to CMC Markets and this quick look at the week ahead beginning the 24th of July Certainly coming off an interesting past few days. It's been a rather mixed We've just come off the back of a rather mixed week for European markets We've yet again hit new record highs for US markets as the earnings season continues to progress we've got a number of Important earnings updates coming out this coming week Namely from Google alphabet on Monday and then later in the week. We also have Amazon and We have Facebook so with the Nasdaq at record highs is their potential for a little bit of froth to come off that particular Market certainly I think the political intrigue in Washington is adding a new dimension To what markets are thinking certainly it's had a significant effect on the dollar Despite the fact that we've had two very dovish press conferences from not only the European Central Bank But also the Bank of Japan yet despite this the dollar has continued to decline So I think let's let's let's look forward to this week's FOMC meeting While I add any clarity to the overall picture or outlook for the dollar I don't think it will ultimately. I think nothing much has changed from those comments made by Janet Yellen At the Humphrey Hawkins testimony just a few days ago and Ultimately, I think any decision in the summer from the Federal Reserve is highly unlikely I don't even think that we'll get any new indications as to whether or not the Federal Reserve will look at tapering its balance sheet in September We're probably likely to get more clarity on that the Jackson Hole and your central banks symposium In August and I think that's really a I think that's what really markets We'll be focusing on over the course of the next few weeks Given mr.. Draghi's comments last week, which were very very dovish in terms of when the ECB might look at tapering It's monetary policy despite the fact that he was very dovish He said that inflation still remained some way away core inflation remains some way away of coming off Reaching its target of 2% The markets simply didn't believe what the ECB president had to say He said that they would potentially look at tapering in the fall Could that be September or would it be later? Would it be October or November? Nevertheless, the markets are pricing in the quite likely probability But we will see some form of pairing back of stimulus as we head into 2018 whether we see that in the first quarter or the second quarter. I don't think the markets too concerned I think they're more concerned about what's going on with the dollar The pound is also suffering quite substantially on the back of the resurgent euro And it's unlikely. I think that the economic data that we've got coming out this week We'll probably change that much in terms of the progress of the euro appears to be on a tear We've got two GDP numbers second quarter GDP numbers one out of the UK And we're expecting to see a minor improvement on the Q1 numbers that we saw 0.2 to 0.3. We've also got second quarter GDP out of the United States and there again expected to See an improvement from the 1.4 percent we saw in the first quarter coming in at 2.6 We've also got French and German PMIs flash PMIs for July So if the economic recovery and economic robustness that we've seen in the first part of this year Continues into July then ultimately I think that's another reason really I think why the euro continues to remain buoyant certainly with respect to Bundy yields We're now well-esconced above 0.5 percent and there's potential for us to potentially go even higher there so Again, I think it's all eyes on the euro and let's have a quick look at this euro dollar chart because I think this chart in Particular will give us some decent indications as to what the next levels are we broken above the 2016 highs that's displayed by this line here around about 1.16 15 1.16 20 Which really takes us out to the highs that we saw in them in around about August 2015 But the the level that I'm really looking for is a 200 weight moving average, which is 118 I think that really I think is the next target for euro dollar As long as we stay above around about 1.15 then I think the line of least resistance now for the euro Is for a push higher and that's really going to present problems for the european central bank, so expect to hear And I think a number of dovish messages coming out from the ECB as they try to temper this rise Unfortunately for the ECB. I think the euro's fate in terms of the dollar is out of their hands I think a lot of people have lost faith in the US dollar You've got the political uncertainty in Washington the investigation into Donald Trump's finances by Robert Muller the special counsel He's appointed to look into The Russia situation and ultimately I think with the dollar breaking some very key support levels And also approaching some key support levels, which is no better illustrated with this dollar Swiss chart here Which is broken below the 200 week moving average We could see for the dollar the clients towards the 2016 lows at 94 40 and potentially even lower What does that mean for the pound well the pounds had a very difficult week had some decent economic data I think with respect to the pound particularly against the dollar and the uptrend still remains intact As long as we stay around I think around about 128 and a half still think we're on course for 133 On the basis that this pattern that we that I highlighted earlier this year in around about April still has scope To play out which means I think the pressure valve I think for the pound will be euro sterling and we're certainly seeing that play out in the way that it's behaving here We've broken above this 89 20 level and I think now there is potential for us to revisit Those highs that we saw around about September October, which was around about 90 25 90 26 if we break above that then we've been looking at last year's highs or around about 93 One other thing to keep an eye out for next week is the start of UK banks earnings Looking at Lloyd's Q2 numbers and Barclays Q2 numbers If you cast your mind back to earlier this year, they posted some very good numbers the pair of them On their annual numbers as well as their first quarter numbers So hopefully we'll see some decent numbers there though I would point out with respect to Barclays investment banking revenues could well be hit on At the back of the slightly lower volumes and slightly flatter your curve that we saw recorded or we saw take effect With respect to JP Morgan's earnings numbers and Goldman Sachs I think the narrowing of the yield curve there and slightly lower volatility hurt their businesses And I would expect to see the same thing manifest itself with respect to Barclays results So that's it for this week. Have a good week trading. This is Michael Houston talking to you from CMC markets

Ond yna'r gweithio i'r gweithio i'r gweithio? o'r Gwstai Gawrmands o'r... I mean, it's not so much battles, but it's definitely a lot of advocacy. We have to do a lot of engagement with member states that are less comfortable with strong civil society engagement. Sometimes we have an NGO that wants to speak and what they want to say is particularly uncomfortable for a government to hear. So we have to do a lot of... It's not really a battle, but it's more just trying to keep the peace, trying to make sure that things are done in a respectful way, trying to make sure that everything, all the civil society engagement here is constructive. Because sometimes you can come and make a lot of noise, but not really get heard. And I think that's what we've been trying to make sure doesn't happen. So, yeah, it's definitely not a battle because, like you say, this place is increasingly civil society friendly, but we do have to continuously be watching to make sure that that space doesn't get closed, yeah. Can you shortly introduce us to the NGOC, like what's its mission, can you talk about the membership? Yeah, so the Vienna NGO committee, it's actually, this year is its 40th anniversary, so it was founded in 1983. And its role is to represent civil society and to open spaces for civil society here at CND, and also to just to help civil society understand how things work here at CND. So we're really kind of like the link between the two, and we don't try to speak on behalf of civil society. Our job is to make the space, and then the NGOs can use that space themselves. So we've got 360 members from 100 countries all around the world, and they range from harm reduction NGOs to drug law reform NGOs to prevention, treatment, recovery, criminal justice NGOs. There's a huge, huge range of different perspectives, and the NGOC's job is to make sure that they all can get into this building, that they can speak at the plenary and host side events, and that they understand how to advocate, how to use the CND for their own work. What are the remaining barriers to break down for civil society here at the UN, especially CND? I would say, I think one of the biggest barriers is that there are still some member states that are very uneasy about our engagement here. So I think there's still a lot of advocacy we have to do to win some governments over. Even in the last few weeks, we know there's been pretty hard debates here in Vienna about civil society engagement. I think the other battle is we have the space, but I think half a battle now is going the next step. How do we turn this advocacy that we do here in Vienna into real change at the national level, and how do we take what we do here and take it home with us? How does each NGO go back to their home country and use the CND to change what they're doing? That's obviously, in some places, that's very challenging. What are the main issues this year at the CND, especially with regard to advocacy? I think the main issue so far has been looking to next year, because next year we have the high-level meeting, the mid-term review, as it's called in 2024. So I think a lot of the energy so far has been just going to make sure that civil society is included in that whole process, and we are, and we're very thankful for that. I think the other issues, this is the first CND where we have hundreds and hundreds of civil society participants physically here in Vienna, first time since March 2020. So I think there's also some adjusting back to that way of working, because a lot of things like the side events have been online for the last two years. So yeah, just welcoming everyone back and also just readjusting to what needs to happen when there's this many NGOs at a meeting. A lot of people are talking about the changing narrative here. If you listen to the speeches, how do you feel about that? Yeah, it has. What's interesting is when someone, I was talking to a former chair actually of the NGOC, Michelle Peron, and he hasn't been here since 2014. And it's then that people can really see how much this place has changed. When you come every year, sometimes you don't notice the steps in that progress, but when you compare what we've been hearing today from the governments and from the other speakers, and you compare that to five years ago, 10 years ago, it's a world different. So there's been huge progress, and I think civil society has a huge role to play or had a huge role to play in that. It's moving forward, but obviously not as fast as a lot of people would like. What would you recommend to your successor? Yeah, I think there's so much like, we just have to carry on fighting the good fight. I think the key thing is building those relationships with the key people here, key member states, key policy makers, UNODC officials. When you're representing the Vienna NGO Committee, you're really representing, or you're trying to open space on behalf of the whole of civil society.  Thank you so much for the interview and thank you for your work because I think it really did make a difference. Thank you very much.


Crosstown Concourse is a mixed-use, living-in-art space, occupying the revitalized Sears-Robuck Distribution Center in Memphis, Tennessee. Following the 1927 construction of the 1.5 million square foot distribution center, Sears-Robuck immediately became a major economic engine in the city and was the region's largest employer by 1965. Unfortunately, due to decades of urban disinvestment and suburban expansion, the structure was abandoned in 1993. In 2010, a local startup arts organization conducted a study that assessed the feasibility of relocating the organization's headquarters to the building and facilitating a gradual revival, after hundreds of meetings with local civic leaders, institutions and neighbors. A group of founding partners came together to implement their vision for a vertical, mixed-use village. The partners emphasized the importance of an environmentally conscious, community-driven development that would focus on social transformation and inclusivity. They set about establishing a collective space where health, arts and educational organizations could thrive. This once-delapidated structure now holds 41 office and retail tenants, 265 apartment units, a charter high school, a YMCA, a performing arts theater, artist residency studios and has brought more than 700 employees to the neighborhood. After its grand opening in August of 2017, Crosstown Concourse earned LEED Platinum status and achieved full occupancy in less than a year.


First quarter was scoreless, but two minutes into the second. We got a touchdown here for Fauston. Beautiful on that run. Two-point try was good. Then with 6 and 1 half left in the second quarterback, Krister Anderson keeps this one and goes 73 yards of the house. This time, the two-point try was successful. 14-nothing Fauston and Sewing Pine River drive. Brandon Wolski's toss gets loose and Sunquist pounces on it, giving the Greyhounds great field position. They would take advantage. You saw Anderson rush for a touchdown earlier. This time he hits Jackson-Paulson for 33 yards in the score. Fauston leads 21-nothing. They would go on to win this one big at 46-to-6 to improve the 1-and-1 on the season.
