Lisa Niver is a PADI Divemaster with over 30 years of underwater adventures. She spent seven years on cruise ships and has been diving with sharks from Bora Bora, French Polynesia to Jardines de la Reina in Cuba, dry suit diving in Juneau, Alaska, wreck diving to 130ft in Vanuatu on the SS President Coolidge, a volunteer diver at the Long Beach Aquarium, diving with bull sharks at Shark School in Mexico and writing about coral restoration and Lion Fish hunting in Bonaire. She has traveled to more than 100 countries on six continents. Niver is an award-winning travel expert who founded We Said Go Travel in 2010 and now writes for WIRED, Teen Vogue, USA Today 10Best among many others. Her memoir, Brave-ish, One Breakup, Six Continents, and Feeling Fearless After 50, will be available in 2023. She is a KTLA TV travel expert and her YouTube videos on diving, travel, and more have over 1.5 million views. See her videos, articles, awards, and interviews here: https://lisaniver.com/one-page/.
This may be the best overall seminar program that the show has presented. History, adventure, marine life, diving physiology, underwater photography, local dive spots, foreign travel, marine conservation and more. The speakers know their topics and love to share them with you. Seminars are very popular with show-goers. Seminars, presentations and workshops run throughout the show.
MY TALK: DIVING OFF THE COVID RUST–
Starting to dive and socialize again requires the travel “F” word — being FLEXIBLE! After years of traumas and challenges on the COVID coaster, you or your dive group might need to remember how to be courageous and step back out into the world. Get back underwater — learn the tips and tricks I’ve perfected from my 30+ years reinventing myself. Find a buddy, follow your bubbles and never give up!
For the authors, that legacy embodies the book’s central message: that even in the face of unbearable loss, compassion, presence and community can help transform grief into an enduring act of care.
This is where the Holocaust story begins – not in the gas chambers of Auschwitz, but earlier, with the Nazi regime’s Aktion T4 program, a state-sponsored campaign to murder people with disabilities.
For the Jewish community, this threat is particularly severe because Jewish life is built around proximity, continuity and intergenerational relationships.
Long before shakshuka became a brunch staple and Israeli restaurants multiplied across the city, Admony was introducing New Yorkers to the flavors she had grown up with in Israel.
Several surveys showed that there is substance to the claim that a degree of Jewish “strengthening” is evident in the Israeli public. However, all the studies so far have dealt with adult society.
This may be Israel’s blind spot. The system is exceptionally good at creating biomedical startups but not equally optimized for turning the strongest of them into enduring global companies.
We may not remember every conversation or every accomplishment, but we remember how people made us feel. In the end, it is those ordinary acts of kindness that stay with us the longest.
It is possible that a record four Jewish candidates will be on a debate stage, vying to become the Democratic nominee for the 2028 presidential election.
While I understand and sympathize with the issues confronting Conservative rabbis and synagogues in the United States concerning intermarriage, allowing Conservative rabbis to officiate at intermarriages will not solve that problem.
The classic case of a “nonapology” apology is when the allegedly contrite offender says something to the effect of “I’m so sorry that you’re upset.” Note that the speaker doesn’t actually acknowledge doing anything wrong.
Without noticing it, my body has gone from a shiny new Audi to a dented rent-a-wreck. I went from “Let me get it” to “Just give me two minutes to catch my breath.”
AIPAC’s leaders face fundamental strategic questions unlike those they have confronted in the modern era.… Their ability to adapt to these new circumstances will define not only their future, but that of the U.S.-Israel relationship in this uncertain era.
