> Greetings All!
> I hope this email finds you well.
> I wanted to advise all of you that in additional to the NFB live 
> streaming options for listening to convention for those who can't 
> attend, which you can find at https://www.nfb.org/livestream we at 195 
> The Globe are providing additional streaming options for those who 
> would like to listen on a mobile device or smart speaker.
> What does this mean? It simply means that we are relaying what is 
> broadcast on the English stream to you, so you can hear it on a smart 
> speaker or mobile device of your choice.
> So during the times of the board of director's meeting, the general 
> sessions and banquet, you can ask google, alexa or any smart speaker 
> you have to play 195 The Globe on Tunein, and it will work. And yes, 
> Alexa works this time! Grin.
> In addition, you can search for 195 The Globe on the google play or 
> ITunes stores and download our app for listening purposes, and to see 
> what else we offer in the way of programming.
> For anyone wanting to use our app, I'll be providing a brief VoiceOver 
> demonstration on The Blind Side's first hour with Chris Nusbaum, which 
> can be heard Tuesday night at 8 PM eastern, then again Thursday 
> morning at 11 AM eastern at http://www.195theglobe.com/listen
>
> In addition, a downloadable link to this mp3 demo will be provided to 
> you for those who can't listen.
> One thing that I will provide for those unable to attend at the 
> beginning of each general session stream is that I will read you the 
> agenda for that particular session before it begins, so you know 
> what's being covered when.
>
> Lastly, I'd like to thank President Riccobono and the NFB for allowing 
> the globe to provide this additional resource to you so you have more 
> ways to listen to the happenings in Vegas. What happens in Vegas won't 
> stay in Vegas now!
