MY JOB Name : John Deery Occupation : Communications coach and founder of The Public Speaking Course Background : A trained actor, John Deery has used his communication skills to help people overcome their greatest fear. Death, divorce and moving house are often cited as the greatest trials of life, but, for some, a deserved fourth on that list is the terror of public speaking. Fear of public speaking is a common form of anxiety, and can range from slight nervousness to paralysing fear and panic. As American writer and humorist, Mark Twain observed: “There are two types of public speakers — those who get nervous and those who are liars.” Statistically, over 75% of people suffer from ‘glossophobia’ — a fear of public speaking that manifests as high levels of anxiety and nerves. “Most people are not natural communicators or born public speakers,” explains John Deery. “Many people are fearful, nervous and self-conscious in front of an audience.” He points out the ‘little voice’ in their head is constantly over-thinking: ‘What will they think of me? What if I go blank and forget what I am saying? What happens if I make a mistake?’ That constant voice of fear whispers that people will think you are boring. “That voice says people will laugh at you, that you’re not good enough, that you don’t deserve to be there, that your speech will be a disaster and you will be fully exposed for what you truly are — an imposter.” Those who fail to face their fear of speaking in public are putting themselves at a professional disadvantage, with their incomes likely to be impaired up to 10% and promotion prospects shrinking by 15%, according to research from Columbia University. While research shows the fear of public speaking affects as many as three in four of the population, just 8% of people have taken deliberate measures to overcome it. “Humans are hardwired to be cautious about public speaking. We are social animals who evolved to rely on the group and so to avoid anything that might reduce our standing within it, like speaking out of turn. "The good news is that modern psychology has given us tools to override our programming and while some of the techniques we deploy on The Public Speaking Course are specific to the individual, many can be applied to every public speaking situation.” Mr Deery also cautions a fear of public speaking affects the student population, reducing the likelihood of college graduation by 10%. “I am very big on education and have worked with young people to overcome what would often be shyness at that younger age. I think more needs to be done in schools and universities to address this fear — I’ve seen many people who are frightened to attend a job interview because they don’t know how to behave or respond.” Hiding behind tech or social media and not wanting to physically or vocally engage is a problem that was further exacerbated by covid: “People stay exclusively with email or text in order to shy away from having a conversation. The previous habit of adding a phone number at the end of an email is no longer the case,” he adds. Clear, concise communication and the ability to stand up and speak without fear will help to get your message across, whether that be in a professional work environment or in a personal capacity, is key to overcoming this fear, he says. "I have worked with individuals and companies all over the world — Europe, the USA, Australia, Asia — and it is a fear that goes right across all cultures and ethnicities — a human condition crossing all geographical borders. "Having helped people from all walks of life: graduates starting out, CEOs, business owners, entrepreneurs, doctors, lawyers, teachers and politicians, the terror of standing alone on stage to address large and small numbers is universal." “That fear crosses all boundaries — age, gender, nationality — with the majority in that 35 to 45 age group, generally a time in life when they are starting to advance in their careers and will need to speak at business gatherings or conferences.” He has also worked with a variety of companies and organisations, including PricewaterhouseCoopers, Unilever, BT, Pulsant, HSBC, Apple, Microsoft, NHS, Samsung and KPMG. Fear of public speaking has held back many a career progression, simply because those individuals knew such a promotion would require the ability to address a group or conference — and so they did not take that job opportunity. Mr Deery began his career as an actor working in theatre, television and film. Shortly after leaving the Drama Studio in London, he joined the BBC Radio Drama Repertory Company and appeared in hundreds of radio broadcasts. He has used his presenting skills for many large companies and corporations, including being the main presenter for BT for five years, travelling all over the UK to present their latest technology to boards, business customers and strategic partners. On the back of that work, Mr Deery was asked to develop a one-day course teaching employees to speak and present in public for some of the UK’s leading companies. Thus began his current passion to help people overcome their greatest fear. In terms of helping to improve one’s ability to confront this universal fear, he offers a number of tips. “If you can, always check out where you are speaking beforehand — break the ‘fear’ of the room. Before you begin, take slow, conscious breaths — in through the nose and out through the mouth. Your exhale should last twice as long as your inhale — this will calm you down in any situation.” Staying present and being in the now assists that calm: “Remember you are telling a story — focus on the beginning, middle and end. Make eye contact with your audience where possible, just for a split second, taking in all areas of the room.” Using your body to take up space yields another physical advantage: “Don’t apologise for being there — just be fully present, no matter what happens during your talk. And, if the worst does happen, if you make a mistake or go blank — acknowledge it and move on.” thepublicspeakingcourse.comjili hacker 。

PHOENIX — Devin Booker scored 29 points and the Phoenix Suns weathered the loss of Kevin Durant to an ankle injury to beat the San Antonio Spurs 104-93 on Tuesday night. Durant left the game with 3:51 to play in the second quarter and did not return. He headed to the locker room under his own power, and the Suns later said he hurt an ankle without providing any specifics. He finished with 13 points. Though Oklahoma City won West Group B in the NBA Cup, the Suns were hoping to earn a wild-card berth into the quarterfinals. But they were eliminated when Dallas beat Memphis. Booker surpassed 15,000 career points with his first basket of the night. He trails only Walter Davis (15,666) on Phoenix’s scoring list.

Peloton Interactive Inc. stock underperforms Monday when compared to competitorsAdvertisement 2 This advertisement has not loaded yet.Imphal: Normal life was badly affected in the Imphal Valley comprising five Manipur districts on Saturday due to a 24-hour shutdown called by the Joint Action Committee (JAC) in protest against the killing of a village defence volunteer. The Joint Action Committee (JAC) called the 24-hour shutdown, which ended on Saturday evening, to protest the killing of a village defence volunteer, and the arrest of six others on December 14. Police earlier said that village volunteer Laishram Prem was killed and six others were arrested after an encounter with the Manipur police commandos near Salungpham High School in Thoubal district. Police claimed that the six persons they arrested and the slain were members of the banned outfit PREPAK who were allegedly involved in extortion activities. Some arms and ammunition, including those earlier looted from police armouries, were recovered from their possession, the official said. In view of the shutdown, markets, including the usually bustling Paona and Thangal Keithel markets in Imphal, were deserted as shopkeepers closed their establishments. Educational institutions, including schools and colleges, also remained shut, and most vehicles remained off the roads across the valley, comprising five districts. Members of the ‘Meira Paibis’ (women vigilantes) took to the streets to enforce the shutdown. Local clubs, civil society organisations (CSOs), and the Women’s Wing of the Coordinating Committee on Manipur Integrity (COCOMI) also supported the shutdown. No major incident in connection with the shutdown was reported in any of the five valley districts. In Bishnupur district, bandh supporters vandalised a few vehicles that were plying on the roads. The JAC has decided not to claim Laishram Prem’s body until their demands are fulfilled. The JAC has been demanding strict action against police officials allegedly involved in the death of the village volunteer and the unconditional release of six village volunteers arrested on December 14.

Democrats are facing backlash for their take on the recent murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. As the head of the country’s largest insurance firm, Thompson's murder, by a suspect police believe bore animosity toward the healthcare industry, sparked some controversial reactions. Some on the Left said his murder brought them “joy” because he represented the “greedy” corporations they believe have oppressed millions of Americans. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) condemned the violence but expressed that “you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands.” Warren indicated during an MSNBC interview that she agreed people are angry “with good reason” at the insurance industry. "The visceral response from people across this country who feel cheated, ripped off, and threatened by the vile practices of their insurance companies should be a warning to everyone in the healthcare system," Warren told the Huffington Post when pressed on social media posts celebrating Thompson’s murder. Warren faced criticism on X for her position, with one user saying the senator “believes that the disgusting act of a crazy communist reflects the hatred of the entire nation for insurance companies.” Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) also condemned the healthcare industry during a response to Thompson’s death. "I think what the outpouring of anger at the healthcare industry tells us is that millions of people understand that healthcare is a human right and that you cannot have people in the insurance industry rejecting needed healthcare for people while they make billions of dollars in profit," Sanders told the same outlet. Both senators have been rebuked by people who believe they are excusing Thompson’s murder. “We already knew this, but Warren and Sanders have no business being in elected office. They have essentially excused the murder of a healthcare executive, laying the groundwork for additional violence. Disqualifying,” one user said on X. Taylor Lorenz, a journalist who formerly worked for the Washington Post, was also reprimanded after she initially said on Monday that Thompson’s murder sparked “joy” for her. Lorenz’s comments came as she lamented during a Piers Morgan Uncensored interview the “tens of thousands of Americans that [Thompson] murdered” and those who “died because greedy health insurance executives like this one push a policy of denying care to the most vulnerable people.” Thompson’s death “feels like justice in this system when somebody responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans suffers the same fate as tens of thousands of Americans," Lorenz added. Host Piers Morgan asked Lorenz: “How can this make you joyful? This guy is a husband, he’s a father, and he’s been gunned down in the middle of Manhattan.” A report from Network Contagion Research Institute found that six of the top ten most-engaged posts on X about Thompson's murder on the day it occurred “either expressed explicit or implicit support for the killing or denigrated the victim.” “If we had universal healthcare like Bernie Sanders proposed, no one would be shooting insurance CEOs,” one user said . “This needs to be the new norm,” another user wrote, “EAT THE RICH.” Alex Goldenberg, a top adviser at the institute, said that the murder is “being framed as some opening blow in a broader class war, which is very concerning as it heightens the threat environment for similar actors to engage in similar acts of violence,” in comments to the New York Times. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), a conservative voice in Congress, also expressed concern on Tuesday that Thompson’s murder had turned his suspected killer, Luigi Mangione, into a “hero” and launched a left-wing “political movement.” "I've been watching this unfold, and I believe it's the beginning of a political movement," Greene said during an interview with Real America's Voice. "What I'm more concerned about is we've seen the Left push for socialized medicine for years, you know?" "Bernie Sanders had Medicare For All," she continued. "I hope this doesn't turn into where they take this guy they're praising ... and make him some sort of hero that they all worship and then pick up the mantra and go after other people." Other conservative commentators, including Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh, have criticized the "radical left-wing" for its stance on Thompson's murder in warnings that political violence "may be coming back." Circumstantial evidence surrounding Thompson’s murder indicated that the gunman bore ill will toward the health insurance industry. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER Bullet casings left behind by the shooter at the crime scene had the words “depose,” “deny,” and “delay” written on them. The words are likely a reference to the similar "three Ds of insurance,” “deny,” “delay,” and “defend,” which are tactics used by insurance companies to avoid paying claims. The words also mirror the title of a book that denounces healthcare insurers, which became an Amazon bestseller following the shooting. Mangione suffered from chronic back pain and is believed to have undergone spinal fusion surgery last July. At the time of his arrest at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s on Monday, Mangione was found with a handwritten document that criticized healthcare companies for putting profits above care, expressed ill will toward corporate America, and included a passage saying, "Frankly, these parasites had it coming.”Fianna Fail and Fine Gael eye independent TDs as option to secure Dail majorityThe mayor of the Canadian township of Emo (pop: 1,204), which borders the US state of Minnesota, has to personally pay an LGBTQ group $5,000 for injury to their self-respect. And that’s on top of the $10,000 that the town has to fork over. According to official documents , the drama started in 2020 when Borderland Pride, a Canadian non-profit group, requested that the town officials officially recognize Pride Month in June of that year. The town had done so in previous years, but reportedly decided to amend their proclamations policy – which had yet to be adopted when this latest request came through. So the group’s request was rejected in a 3-2 council vote that year. It’s not like this particular policy amendment was high priority, particularly at the height of the Covid fiasco, since they barely had any requests anyway. This one group alone represented half of all of the town’s requests for declarations, proclamations, or flag displays from April 2019 to April 2020. Their request for the town to fly the rainbow flag for a week, and to send the group photos of it with the town’s officials for use on social media, reportedly wasn’t considered since the town didn’t even have a flagpole. So here comes a complaint by the group to the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal – which was decided on November 20, 2024. The role of such tribunals across Canada is to deal exclusively with complaints about discrimination on the basis of prohibited factors like race, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, and criminal convictions. Because if actual courts had to deal with things like this, they’d be clogged up like a frat house toilet after Frosh Week. If the complainant can prove that there was at least a 50 percent chance of discrimination on one of these bases, then it can order cash awards and other remedies. So step right up! Take a spin! Win cash and prizes! In the case of Borderland Pride against the Township of Emo, the tribunal accepted at face value that the council didn’t consider hanging the flag because of its lack of a flagpole. It did however note that the flag could have been “displayed” somewhere else other than on a flagpole. But it stopped short of ordering the mayor to walk around with it like a Superman cape. The tribunal also accepted that two of the three council votes against issuing the Pride Month proclamation occurred in good faith and were merely the result of not wanting to adopt any proclamations before the new policy governing them was put into place. It was only the mayor’s “no” vote that was problematic. During the council meeting in question, after discussing what they should do with the Pride flag display request in the absence of a flagpole, but before the vote against the Pride Month proclamation, Mayor Harold McQuaker said, “There’s no flag being flown for the other side of the coin...there’s no flags being flown for the straight people.” Uh oh, here’s comes the forbidden-thinking patrol! The tribunal ruled that the mayor’s comment was “dismissive of Borderland Pride’s flag request and demonstrated a lack of understanding of the importance to Borderland Pride and other members of the LGBTQ2 community of the Pride flag” and constitutes discrimination. Suddenly, because of the mayor’s pro-heterosexual comments, it must mean that he hates gays. So it’s decided that “on the preponderance of evidence,” the rejection of the Pride proclamation was, more likely than not, the end-result of the mayor’s homophobia, and couldn’t be because he aligned with the other two Council “no” votes on the need for the policy amendment to deal with it first. “I don’t hate anybody,” he said. “We just don’t have a flagpole at our town hall,” McQuaker recently told the Toronto Sun. But cognitive deviance is cognitive deviance, and like a colon polyp, best to nip it in the bud so there’s zero risk of it ever potentially developing into systemic cancer. So here come the experts to tell the tribunal about how malignant this mayor’s thinking already is. According to Dr. Emily Saewyc, an LGBTQ specialist who testified at the hearing, research suggests that “anti-LGBTQ rhetoric by President Trump, Vice-President Pence, and members of Trump’s cabinet during his presidency visibly increased the amount of hate and violence” towards these minorities. Or, you know, maybe people are just fed up with having special interest agenda shoved down their throats in make-work projects for activists at a time when citizens of all stripes are facing common and federating hardships. She then attempted to draw a parallel with the “homophobic and hateful social media posts about Borderland Pride and the LGBTQ2 community” after the vote – as though people would have been cheering the LGBTQ cause had the mayor not been such a bigot and supported Pride Month. Right, because the key to people embracing wokeism is just to firehose even more of it into the public domain. Guess she hasn’t heard about the impact on brands like Bud Light and Jaguar after going woke. Or the public outcry after the Paris Olympics opening ceremony featuring what many interpreted as being a tranny wreck version of the Last Supper. Borderland Pride wanted the tribunal to allow it to choose a week for the Township to have 2020 Pride Month now, and to force it to hold Pride Month every June going forward. It refused. But it did order Mayor McQuaker to attend a sort of re-education camp. Within 30 days, he has to provide Borderland Pride with proof that he’s completed the province’s human rights training course. McQuaker has basically told the tribunal to shove it, refusing to pay or take the course, calling it “extortion,” according to the Toronto Sun . All of this is the sort of blueprint that demonstrates exactly how special interest agendas end up hijacking the most basic aspects of daily life, through relentless activist browbeating that has a chilling effect on anyone who fails to passionately cater to their sacred cows.

No. 1 UCLA vs. Long Beach State women’s basketball matchup is rife with history

Special election dates set for vacant state Senate seat in Orange and Los Angeles countiesSocial media users are misrepresenting a Vermont Supreme Court ruling, claiming that it gives schools permission to vaccinate children even if their parents do not consent. The ruling addressed a lawsuit filed by Dario and Shujen Politella against Windham Southeast School District and state officials over the mistaken vaccination of their child against COVID-19 in 2021, when he was 6 years old. A lower court had dismissed the original complaint, as well as an amended version. An appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court was filed on Nov. 19. But the ruling by Vermont's high court is not as far-reaching as some online have claimed. In reality, it concluded that anyone protected under the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, or PREP, Act is immune to state lawsuits. Here's a closer look at the facts. CLAIM: The Vermont Supreme Court ruled that schools can vaccinate children against their parents' wishes. THE FACTS: The claim stems from a July 26 ruling by the Vermont Supreme Court, which found that anyone protected by the PREP Act is immune to state lawsuits, including the officials named in the Politella's suit. The ruling does not authorize schools to vaccinate children at their discretion. According to the lawsuit, the Politella's son — referred to as L.P. — was given one dose of the Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine at a vaccination clinic held at Academy School in Brattleboro even though his father, Dario, told the school's assistant principal a few days before that his son was not to receive a vaccination. In what officials described as a mistake, L.P. was removed from class and had a “handwritten label” put on his shirt with the name and date of birth of another student, L.K., who had already been vaccinated that day. L.P. was then vaccinated. Ultimately, the Vermont Supreme Court ruled that officials involved in the case could not be sued. “We conclude that the PREP Act immunizes every defendant in this case and this fact alone is enough to dismiss the case,” the Vermont Supreme Court's ruling reads. “We conclude that when the federal PREP Act immunizes a defendant, the PREP Act bars all state-law claims against that defendant as a matter of law.” The PREP Act, enacted by Congress in 2005, authorizes the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to issue a declaration in the event of a public health emergency providing immunity from liability for activities related to medical countermeasures, such as the administration of a vaccine, except in cases of “willful misconduct" that result in “death or serious physical injury.” A declaration against COVID-19 was issued on March 17, 2020. It is set to expire on Dec. 31. Federals suits claiming willful misconduct are filed in Washington. Social media users described the Vermont Supreme Court's ruling as having consequences beyond what it actually says. “The Vermont Supreme Court has ruled that schools can force-vaccinate children for Covid against the wishes of their parents,” reads one X post that had been liked and shared approximately 16,600 times as of Tuesday. “The high court ruled on a case involving a 6-year-old boy who was forced to take a Covid mRNA injection by his school. However, his family had explicitly stated that they didn't want their child to receive the ‘vaccines.’” Other users alleged that the ruling gives schools permission to give students any vaccine without parental consent, not just ones for COVID-19. Rod Smolla, president of the Vermont Law and Graduate School and an expert on constitutional law, told The Associated Press that the ruling “merely holds that the federal statute at issue, the PREP Act, preempts state lawsuits in cases in which officials mistakenly administer a vaccination without consent.” “Nothing in the Vermont Supreme Court opinion states that school officials can vaccinate a child against the instructions of the parent,” he wrote in an email. Asked whether the claims spreading online have any merit, Ronald Ferrara, an attorney representing the Politellas, told the AP that although the ruling doesn't say schools can vaccinate students regardless of parental consent, officials could interpret it to mean that they could get away with doing so under the PREP Act, at least when it comes to COVID-19 vaccines. He explained that the U.S. Supreme Court appeal seeks to clarify whether the Vermont Supreme Court interpreted the PREP Act beyond what Congress intended. “The Politella’s fundamental liberty interest to decide whether their son should receive elective medical treatment was denied by agents of the State and School,” he wrote in an email to the AP. “The Vermont Court misconstrues the scope of PREP Act immunity (which is conditioned upon informed consent for medical treatments unapproved by FDA), to cover this denial of rights and its underlying battery.” Ferrara added that he was not aware of the claims spreading online, but that he “can understand how lay people may conflate the court's mistaken grant of immunity for misconduct as tantamount to blessing such misconduct.” John Klar, who also represents the Politellas, went a step further, telling the AP that the Vermont Supreme Court ruling means that “as a matter of law” schools can get away with vaccinating students without parental consent and that parents can only sue on the federal level if death or serious bodily injury results. Get local news delivered to your inbox!NEW YORK (AP) — Chad Chronister, Donald Trump’s pick to run the Drug Enforcement Administration, said Tuesday he was withdrawing his name from consideration, becoming the second person selected by the president-elect to bow out quickly after being nominated for a position requiring Senate confirmation. Sheriff Chronister, the top law enforcement officer in Hillsborough County, Florida, said in a post on X that he was backing away from the opportunity, which he called “the honor of a lifetime.” “Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, I’ve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration,” Chronister wrote. He did not elaborate, and Trump’s transition team did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. Chronister follows former Republican congressman , Trump’s first pick to serve as attorney general, in withdrawing his name for a post in the administration. Gaetz withdrew following scrutiny over that cast doubt on his ability to be confirmed as the nation’s chief federal law enforcement officer. Trump’s pick of Chronister for the DEA job drew backlash from conservatives, who raised concerns over his actions during the COVID-19 pandemic and his saying that his office “does not engage in federal immigration enforcement activities.” In March 2020, Chronister arrested the pastor of a megachurch who held services with hundreds of people and violated a safer-at-home order in place aimed at limiting the spread of the Covid virus. “Shame on this pastor, their legal staff and the leaders of this staff for forcing us to do our job. That’s not what we wanted to do during a declared state of emergency,” Chronister said at the time. “We are hopeful that this will be a wakeup call.” U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky, was among those airing public complaints, saying Chronister should be “disqualified” for the arrest. Others flagged comments Chronister made in a video about Florida’s immigration laws that he released in 2023 that circulated again online after Trump named him last weekend. Related Articles In the video, Chronister praised the “rich diversity” of his community and called it “a place where people from all walks of life come together.” He said it was important to note his office “does not engage in federal immigration enforcement activities. We do not target individuals based on their immigration status. That’s the authority of federal agencies.” Trump has made a sweeping crackdown on immigration a central focus of his campaign and his aims for his coming administration.

Canada again supports UN motion critical of Israel, citing two-state solution

Chad Chronister, Donald Trump’s pick to run the DEA, withdraws name from considerationSANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers were hit by another family tragedy with the announcement that star left tackle Trent Williams' wife gave birth to a stillborn son late last week. Sondra Williams announced on Instagram on Sunday that she gave birth to Trenton O’Brien Williams Jr. on Nov. 24. Williams also wrote that she was initially pregnant with twins and lost the other child earlier in the pregnancy. “I can’t even begin to describe how I felt leaving the hospital without you,” she wrote. “Nor how it feels being home celebrating Thanksgiving without my baby in my arms. My heart is broken and my arms are empty. But I know you’ll always be near watching over me and your sisters. And for that, my heart smiles with gratitude. Thank God for allowing us to bond for 35 weeks and for me to birth you so I could hold you in my arms. I’m at peace knowing you will never have to suffer.” Williams wrote that her son was diagnosed with Trisomy 13, a genetic condition also known as Patau syndrome that affects how the face, brain and heart develop, along with several other internal organs. Trent Williams spent time last week at the hospital and grieving with his family, including the couple's three young daughters. “He was there at the hospital with her and got to meet him and say bye,” coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday. "Then he had to cremate him on Friday. So he’s been dealing with that and he’s working through it. But we’re all just trying to be here for him through it all.” This is the second tragedy to hit the Niners in recent weeks. Cornerback Charvarius Ward's 1-year-old daughter , Amani Joy, died on Oct. 28. She had born prematurely with Down syndrome and had open-heart surgery in April 2023. Ward spent a few weeks away from the team and returned to the field for the first time on Sunday. Williams has missed the last two games with an ankle injury but Shanahan said he is hoping to be able to the return as soon as he's healthy. “It’s hard as a coach. It’s hard as a friend. It’s hard as a family member. It’s hard for everybody," Shanahan said. ”But we spend a lot of time with each other. That’s what’s cool about a football team. Whatever you go through, the good or the bad, we go through it together. I do like that they have a group of guys they can go to, a group of guys that can see them every day. You can never escape that full grief and stuff. But I do think it’s nice for those guys to have another avenue to get out on the football field, to get around teammates and things like that."
