With just a sleeping bag and a bivvybag, bivvying allows you to immerse yourself in the landscape and enjoy sunsets, sunrises and the stars. In this episode of highlights from our Cicerone Live event, we hear all about bivvying on hillsides and hilltops in the UK from Cicerone author and bivvying enthusiast Ronald Turnbull. Ronald has enjoyed many nights sleeping out on hilltops and hillsides in the UK and completed his 100th hilltop bivvy earlier this year. He tells us the history of bivvying and stories of his hilltop experiences offers before offering advice on dealing with condensation and how to make bivvying a comfortable experience. Ronald has also dealt with plenty of cold nights out on the hills in wintery weather and pouring rain, and offers advice on how to avoid that experience, or chase it if you fancy some 'enjoyable misery'!Find out more about Ronald's new edition of 'The Book of the Bivvy' on the Cicerone website: https://www.cicerone.co.uk/the-book-of-the-bivvy-third.Search for @CiceronePress on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and join our Facebook community group, Cicerone Connect.

When the pandemic suspended theater as he knew it, Odyssey Works Artistic director Abraham Burickson decided to harness technology to create a new kind of togetherness -- not just a ‘sorry second' to ‘real life.'‘ The Book of Separation,' is a customized participatory virtual experience built for an audience of two. It's about togetherness, but Burickson says it also asks: “How do we want to be together? What does it mean to be together? What's this new world that we're going to make? Is it a new world or are we going to just recreate what we had before with all of its positives and negatives. That's really the question at the core of this piece.” Links: Odyssey Works, The Book of Separation Tickets. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One of the best K-Band group in this era finally came back with this bittersweet record to close up their 'The Book' series .

If Genesis is 'The Book of Beginnings,' we could entitle Exodus as 'The Birth of a Nation' -the nation of Israel. We saw the beginnings of this nation in Genesis. Now we see it as a full-fledged nation. In the first 15 chapters we read of their slavery in Egypt and their deliverance from Egypt. The rest of the book deals with the giving of the Law, a little bit of their time in the wilderness and the plan God gave for building His tabernacle.

"Whoever supposes that His gentleness is separate from His decree of Fate does so out of shortsightedness" Hikam 106 page 191 of 'The Book of Wisdoms' Allahs compassion and gentleness will never be seperate from any decree, judgement or action of His. This is an absolute undisputed fundamental fact. The Shaykh explains the rationality behind this as well as providing many evidences from the Quraan and Sunnah in support of this.

85% of the active population in the world is disengaged from their work. The dramatic impact on health and well-being, as-well-as the global economy is colossal. Employees and employers are getting stuck in transactional relations.

Together they explore the root cause of this issue and how bringing noble purpose into our lives, our enterprises, and the society we live in will alter things for the better.

Erin McDowell, New York Times contributing baker, author and food stylist, joins us to discuss The Book on Pie: Everything You Need to Know to Bake Perfect Pies. She starts with the basics of pie-baking and includes expert tips for decorating and styling. The book also offers a wide range of recipes for all the different kinds of pies: fruit, custard, cream, chiffon, cold set, savory, and mini... the perfect thing to hunker down for winter.   Pumpkin Pie MAKES: ONE 9-INCH/23-CM PIE DIFFICULTY: MEDIUM   Because pumpkin pie had never been one of my favorites, I set out to make a recipe I truly loved for this book, and I ended up with several contenders! This one is the most classic; see the variation below for a slightly creamier version that is also delicious. I like it best topped with whipped cream, or a pile of fat toasted marshmallows (see below).   170 g / 3 large eggs 106 g / 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar 99 g / 1/2 cup granulated sugar 5 g / 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 439 g / 2 cups canned pumpkin puree 6 g / 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3 g / 1 teaspoon ground ginger 2 g / 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves Scant 1 g / 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 2 g / 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt 115 g / 1/2 cup half-and-half One 9-inch / 23-cm pie crust (see below), parbaked, brushed with egg wash, and cooled completely (see page 43)   1.       Preheat the oven to 375°F / 190°C with a rack in the center (preferably with a Baking Steel or stone on it). 2.       In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla together until well combined. Add the pumpkin puree, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and salt and whisk until well combined. Add the half-and-half and whisk well to combine. 3.       Place the parbaked crust on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Pour the filling into the crust. Transfer to the oven and bake until the custard appears set around the edges (it may still be a bit jiggly in the center—that’s OK), 35 to 40 minutes. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. 4.       When ready to serve, spread or pipe the whipped cream onto the surface of the pie. Slice and serve.   VARIATION PUMPKIN MASCARPONE PIE: Replace the half-and-half with 226 g / 8 ounces mascarpone cheese; whisk well to combine.   MAKE AHEAD AND STORAGE The pie can be made up to 24 hours ahead and refrigerated until ready to serve. Add the whipped cream topping just before serving.   RECOMMENDED CRUSTS · Cardamom Lemon Pie Dough (page 52) · Oatmeal Press-In Cookie Crust (page 64) · Pumpkin Spice Pie Dough (page 52)   RECOMMENDED FINISHES Mile-High Batch of Classic Whipped Cream or Mascarpone Whipped Cream (page 111)   OTHER OPTIONS Skip the whipped cream and top with Meringue Topping (page 118), or serve with Whipped Cream Sauce (page 112)   All-Buttah Pie Dough MAKES: ONE 9-INCH / 23-CM CRUST DIFFICULTY: MEDIUM   This is my go-to pie dough: all buttah, all the time. Butter can be harder for beginners to work with, because it has a lower melting point than fats such as shortening, but the flavor can’t be beat. And once you know how to handle the dough, it’s easy. The key? Colder is always better when pie dough is involved. When in doubt, toss everything (the ingredients, the bowl, and maybe even the half-mixed dough) into the fridge before proceeding. The recipe can easily be increased to make up to a quadruple batch of dough (see Making Big Batches using a Stand Mixer, page 30).   150 g / 11/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 g / 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt 113 g / 4 ounces / 8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch / 13-mm cubes 60 g / 1/4 cup ice water, plus more as needed   1.       Prepare the dough using your desired mixing method (see page 27). 2.       Form the dough into a disk and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using. This dough is best baked at 425°F / 220°C. Parbake (see page 43), blind-bake (see page 46), or fill and bake as directed in the recipe of your choice.   VARIATION CHOCOLATE ALL-BUTTAH PIE DOUGH: Replace 30 g / 1/4 cup of the all-purpose flour with 28 g / 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (any kind, but dark or black cocoa powder makes a particularly intense crust; see Resources, page 345). Take care not to overbake the crust—look for a dry, matte appearance all over.   MAKE AHEAD AND STORAGE The tightly wrapped disk of dough can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Wrapped in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil, the dough can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before using.   (Excerpted from THE BOOK ON PIE © 2020 by Erin Jeanne McDowell. Photography © 2020 by Mark Weinberg.

Somewhere along the line, many of us learn that voicing our needs directly - asking people for what we want - is to invite ridicule, shame or otherwise ask to be hurt. Our learning to undo that - to find out what we really long for, and to give voice to it - is a necessary, difficult and life-giving path to taking up our full size and place in the world. And it's also absolutely necessary for a life of dignified, mutual relationships with others.  A conversation about discovering and speaking our truest longings to others - with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace. This is Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace (http://www.wearethirdspace.org/) in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep into big questions of human living. Find us on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/turningtowardslife/) to watch live and join in the lively conversation on this episode. We’re also on YouTube, and as a podcast on Apple, Google and Spotify. You can find videos of every episode, and more about the project on the Turning Towards Life website (http://turningtowards.life/) .

In an unexpected turn of events for the podcast my guest (Simon Ashton from Phoenix Leaders) mentions context before me.  We get into a lot of areas as this episode is the second longest one to date.  Simon described this off air as 'a bloody big topic' and I agree with him.  Decisions are massively influenced by what goes on inside our heads and by things that are happening or going on around us.  Therefore, this podcast has a number of different areas that we focus on.  The full list of all the key ideas/topics is covered in the Show Notes below with associated links to resources or definitions.   At about 1 hour and 3 minutes there is a bit of mild swearing so if you are listening with little ears around you may want to turn the volume down at that point.     What I really enjoyed about this podcast is the conversational flow of it.  When I listened back in the edit I once again enjoyed being part of the conversation.   If you want to get hold of Simon you can find him

Anjeza Angie Gega is an Artist, Speaker, Author and a Humanitarian. Anjeza Angie Gega was born in Tirana, Albania. The Daughter of a science teacher and a mechanic father, both of whom were artistically talented but couldn't pursue it because of political control and limitations. Against all odds, relying on her passions, inherited artistic talents, and an outspoken attitude of “I will do what feels right”, Anjeza Angie Gega decided to listen to her desires more than her fears. Reading, Dancing, Singing, Studying, Acting, Creating and embracing extracurricular physical activities were the highlight of her childhood while coping with the economic status of her family. Never crying about her past nor complaining about the present, she constantly kept her eyes into the future. Anjeza is a professional singer, actress, dancer, and author that aims to make an emotional and financial positive difference in the world. Her professional world trips, since a very early age, reinforced an early maturity and objective view of the world, which then inspired this quote book that aims to wake up some hope, strength, enlightenment, inspiration, and self-realization. Anjeza Angie Gega holds two degrees, one in Broadcasting and another in Communication. She also studied Psychology in the affiliated UK Sheffield University located in Greece. After interning to become a part time journalist while being an artist, she realized that TV media was too politically corrupt and controlled for her to be part of it. She chose a different path, a path that will take her away from suppression of truth, into a circle where making a difference came from a genuine resource of love. Bringing truth is strongly echoed in many of her quotes. She doesn't write to impress, but rather to identify, admit mistakes, find strength, suggest better choices, and overcome negativity by embracing light. “I am far from perfect. I haven't conquered life. I haven't magically become permanently smart and never mistaken after bad choices. I still fall, crawl, cry, smile... but most importantly I try again... I stand up. Many of these quotes are not preaching... but alerting others and my conscience as well... Mind for some reason believes faster the information that comes from outside.

In her sermon on Sunday, Feb. 23, 2020 at Valley Presbyterian Church, Rev. Jenny Warner explored the Bible as "The Book of Transformation." Recognizing that we often want to enshrine the words of Scripture as set in stone, Pastor Jenny suggested instead that we can see them as a living conversation, a relationship into which we are invited and in which we become transformed. www.valleypreschurch.org

Terry from Mage: the Podcast joins BK to discuss the Wu Keng from The Book of Crafts.  Girding themselves against the forbidden knowledge of Lord Ku of the Thousand Tears, the duo consider whether a group of unwitting Infernalists make for player-characters, and the types of chronicles possible with this Craft and their demonic patrons. The episode begins with a chat about Terry's recent publication 'Ascension's Landscape' and some his decision-making around describing 'the world of darkness', and communicating it to players.  Economies of scale play a massive part in chronicles, and it's a topic that needs further exploration.

At Valley Presbyterian Church on Sunday, Feb. 16, 2020, Rev. Jenny Warner preached on 'The Book of Growth,' looking at how the Bible invites us to grow. What if some of the "problems" we have with the Bible are actually invitations to embrace complexity and mature? How does the Bible move us towards non-binary thinking and deeper into saying "yes" to God as a mystery of grace and love? We explored these ideas through Paul's letter to the Corinthians. www.valleypreschurch.org

Valley Presbyterian Church kicked off a new sermon series for the month of February, focused on understanding the Bible from different perspectives, Over the next month, we'll explore the complex, beautiful, messy and sacred text from this work, each week considering the Bible from a different vantage point. This past Sunday, Feb. 2, 2020, we started by evaluating the Bible through the lens of Jesus. We heard the story of Simeon and Anna, and Rev. Jenny Warner preached on 'The Book of Jesus.'

As the Civil War fractured Washington D.C., socialite Rose O'Neal Greenhow coordinated a vital spy ring to funnel information to the Confederates. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe one of the war's most unlikely spies, and her determination to aid the South. We'll also fragment the queen's birthday and puzzle over a paid game of pinball. Intro: German officer Ernst Jünger likened the sounds of World War I shelling to "being menaced by a man swinging a heavy hammer." Bowdoin College compiled a list of odd how-to titles. NOTE: After this episode was originally released, some listeners objected to our handling of Greenhow's story, saying that we were treating her too sympathetically when she was defending the institution of slavery. They're entirely right about that -- I had focused on her personal story without being sensitive to its larger implications. I'm very sorry for that oversight. We're presenting the story here as it originally ran, and we'll discuss listeners' reactions to it in Episode 279. -- Greg Sources for our feature: Ann Blackman, Wild Rose: Rose O'Neale Greenhow, Civil War Spy, 2006.

Hello and welcome to the Baha’i Blogcast with me your host, Rainn Wilson. In this series of podcasts I interview members of the Baha’i Faith and friends from all over the world about their hearts, and minds, and souls, their spiritual journeys, what they’re interested in, and what makes them tick. In this episode, I'm at my home in LA with Derik Smith, a professor in the Department of Literature at Claremont McKenna College in California, and his work focuses on African American literary culture, with a particular interest in poetry. We talk about African American poet and Baha'i, Robert Hayden, plus we look at the concept of black people being likened to the "pupil of the eye" in the Baha'i Writings. We also discuss racism, the prison system, constructive resilience, and the role each one of us can play in ensuring individual and social transformation and justice. I hope you enjoy the conversation! Dr. Smith also teaches and writes about representations of blackness in American film and musical culture. His 2018 monograph, 'Robert Hayden In Verse: New Histories of African American Poetry and the Black Arts Era', recently won the College Language Association's annual book award. His current scholarship focuses on the poetics of rap, and the rise of the genre during the final decades of the twentieth century, as well as the connection between critical race studies and the Baha’i Faith. Smith regularly teaches courses in American prisons and nurtures activist interests in prison studies and pedagogy. He and his family live in Southern California, USA. To find out more about Derik Smith and some of the things we covered in this episode, check out the following links: * Read Derek's essay 'Centering the “Pupil of the Eye”: Blackness, Modernity, and the Revelation of Baha’u’llah' (https://bit.ly/35aHafr) found in The Journal of Baha'i Studies (https://bit.ly/35cS1pe), Volume 29, Number 1 Spring-Summer 2019. * We discuss the following quote: "Thou art like unto the pupil of the eye which is dark in color, yet it is the fount of light and the revealer of the contingent world". –Abdu’l-Baha * We mention the following books: i.

Hello and welcome to the Baha’i Blogcast with me your host, Rainn Wilson. In this series of podcasts I interview members of the Baha’i Faith and friends from all over the world about their hearts, and minds, and souls, their spiritual journeys, what they’re interested in, and what makes them tick. In this episode I'm sitting in a cabin in the woods with Michael Karlberg, as we take part in a Baha'i-inspired retreat for youth in White Salmon, Washington called Windstock. Michael is a professor of Communication Studies at Western Washington University, and he's the author of 'Beyond a Culture of Contest', a book I often reference in my podcast. He tells me how he used to make acoustic guitars and how he became a Baha'i, and we talk about the power of media and how we need to rethink some of the fundamental assumptions we have about the world and how it's moving forward. We discuss nonviolent social change through constructive and peaceful resilience, and the challenges of taking collective action. Michael shares how the Baha'i Faith is a radical movement which addresses change on both the individual and social level, and he explains the ways in which the Baha'is are working towards this. I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did!

The chapters include a question mark, poems, rituals, instructions, and obscure allusions and cryptograms. The subject of each chapter is generally determined by its number and its corresponding Qabalistic meaning. Around 1921, Crowley wrote a short commentary about each chapter, assisting the reader in the Qabalistic interpretation.

Hello and welcome to the Baha’i Blogcast with me your host, Rainn Wilson. In this series of podcasts I interview members of the Baha’i Faith and friends from all over the world about their hearts, and minds, and souls, their spiritual journeys, what they’re interested in, and what makes them tick. In this episode I'm in Chelsea, England with Moojan Momen - medical doctor by day, academic by night! Moojan has authored dozens of books and papers on a variety of topics ranging from things like 'The Baha'i Faith and Hinduism', to 'The God of Baha'u'llah'. Moojan tells me what led him to research and writing, and he also shares his thoughts on what makes the Baha'i Faith unique.
