This week, we're airing a powerful rerun of an episode from Focus on Israel that's more relevant than ever in today's turbulent climate. The greatest threat facing Israel and the world today is the Islamic Republic of Iran, a danger that could escalate exponentially if Iran succeeds in developing nuclear weapons. In this episode, we explore the chilling parallels between Ahmadinejad's venomous rhetoric against Israel and the Jewish people and the horrors of the past, drawing unsettling comparisons to the tirades of Hitler. Could the world be on the brink of another Holocaust? Tune in to this timely and crucial discussion on Proclaiming Justice.

In June 2009, millions of Iranians took to the streets to protest against what they considered a rigged presidential election.The hardline incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad won 62% of the vote. All three defeated candidates disputed the results.The protests gave rise to the 'Green Movement', named after its signature colour, which opposed Ahmadinejad.Journalist Maziar Bahari was accused of being a Western spy and spent 118 days being interrogated in Iran's Evin Prison. He tells Dan Hardoon about the torture he endured.(Photo: Maziar Bahari in 2015. Credit: Slaven Vlasic/Getty Images)

EL ISLAM ESPERA VOLVER A SU MESÍAS   En 2005, el presidente iraní Mahmoud Ahmadinejad fue llamado ante el Consejo de Seguridad de las Naciones Unidas para explicar su determinación de desarrollar armas nucleares. Terminó su discurso con esta oración a Alá: “Te ruego que aceleres el surgimiento de tu último depositario, el prometido, ese ser humano perfecto y puro, el que llenará este mundo de justicia y paz”. El “prometido” en la oración de Ahmadinejad era una referencia al Duodécimo Imam, una figura en la enseñanza chiíta que es paralela a la figura de Al-Mahdi en la enseñanza sunita. En esencia, ambos títulos se refieren al mesías islámico que aún está por llegar. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/xos-french-diguez/message

Heads of state from all over the world gathered in New York last week to take part in the UN General Assembly, an event that often puts geopolitical rivals in the same room. Jon Stewart calls the play-by-play on some of the most infamous recent matchups - Bush vs. Chavez, Obama vs. Ahmadinejad, Gaddafi vs. everyone - and gets insight into the UN's take on things from Sam Bee. Jordan Klepper then hits the assembly floor to mix it up with diplomats before Trevor Noah shares an inside look at France and Australia's awkward submarine face-off. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“The Curious Case of Ahmadinejad” - Part 30 of the Roqe Media series, The Contemporary History of Iran. Is there are more mercurial figure in the modern history of Iran than Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - the man who served as the president of the Islamic Republic from 2005 to 2013? The conservative politician is either seen as a supervillain, or a superstar, depending on your perspective, ideology, and maybe even your place in the world. But his tenure was undeniably controversial and chaotic. So, how do we explain Ahmadinejad, and how will he be treated in history books? Professor of Iranian History and Founding Director of the Institute for Iranian Studies at the University of St. Andrews, Dr. Ali Ansari, author of the book, “Iran under Ahmadinejad: The Politics of Confrontation,” joins Jian Ghomeshi from Fife, Scotland, to try to untangle the ascendance and legacy of the one of the more colourful and odd figures in Iranian politics.

*) Death toll rises to 67 from Israeli attacks against Palestinians Israeli forces continue to bomb the Gaza enclave, killing at least 67 people, including 17 children, since the start of recent hostilities. Israel's attacks on Gaza follow weeks of violence during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan against Palestinians in occupied East Jerusalem. One of the major catalysts behind Palestinian protests in recent weeks were the threatened expulsions in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of occupied East Jerusalem, which Israeli settlers are trying to take over via a court case. *) Afghan forces launch operation to recapture Taliban-held district Afghan security forces have mounted an operation to recapture a key district that the Taliban seized just before a three-day ceasefire. Taliban insurgents killed and captured Afghan soldiers, forcing troops to retreat from Nerkh district, which is close to the capital Kabul.

Les Iraniens célèbrent ce samedi leur Nouvel An, Norouz. Une fête gâchée par le Covid-19, mais aussi par la situation économique désastreuse. La monnaie a fortement chuté par rapport aux devises étrangères. L’inflation a explosé, la population a donc dû réduire ses achats les plus élémentaires pour les fêtes et la colère gronde. De notre envoyée spéciale à Téhéran, Une file immense s’est formée à l’extérieur du marché Qezel Qaleh en plein centre de Téhéran. Ici on fait la queue devant un camion frigorifique pour acheter du poulet congelé. Leila, coiffée d’un voile coloré, a du mal à garder son calme. « Pour un mauvais poulet congelé à 17 000 tomans le kilo, on attend depuis une heure ! Vous croyez que ça me fait plaisir d’avoir laissé mon travail et ma vie pour faire la queue juste avant le Nouvel An ? » Pour ce Nouvel An, pas de poisson traditionnel sur les tables iraniennes. Avec l’explosion des prix, la population peut tout juste acheter du poulet, à moins d’un euro le kilo. Et s’il y a du monde sur ce marché, c’est que les prix sont deux fois moins chers qu’ailleurs, ils sont subventionnés par l’État. « L'économie est en ruine » Une dispute éclate dans la file d’attente. Qui est responsable de la flambée des prix en Iran ? Pour Keramat Saidi, fervent défenseur du régime, c’est tout vu. Ce sont les Occidentaux. « C’est à cause des grandes puissances, la République islamique n’y est pour rien. Ça fait 40 ans qu’on subit des sanctions », soutient-il. Mais la plupart les autres clients ne sont pas d’accord. Ils accusent les dirigeants iraniens de mauvaise gestion comme Shanaz, 60 ans. « Les sanctions américaines n’ont rien à voir avec du poulet qui est produit ici ! Les loyers sont en hausse, il y a des problèmes financiers, l’économie est en ruine. Ce sont les mollahs pourris qui nous gâchent la vie ! », s'exclame-t-elle. L'espoir d'un changement qui s'est envolé Sepideh, une institutrice à la retraite, s’est déplacée difficilement, pour acheter du poulet, elle trouve la situation humiliante. « C’est la misère. Pour les personnes âgées est-ce que c’est décent de venir faire la queue ? Pour notre malheur, ici, nous ne vivons pas bien, et on ne peut pas partir à l’étranger », déplore Sepideh. Ces Iraniens ne croient pas à un quelconque changement. Des élections présidentielles ont lieu dans trois mois en Iran, mais à quoi bon voter s’interroge Shanaz. « Ça nous apporterait quoi de voter ? Ahmadinejad qu’est-ce qu’il a fait ? Et Rohani ? Qu’est-ce qu’ils ont fait pour nous ? Ça a toujours été comme ça. Nous sommes tous dans une situation difficile, et en colère. Quand pourrons-nous protester ? Jusqu’à quand doit-on subir ça ? 42 ans, ce n’est pas assez ?! », s'emporte Shanaz. Quarante-deux ans après la révolution islamique, ces Iraniens dénoncent une situation catastrophique dans le pays. Le passage à la nouvelle année n’est pas vraiment porteur d’espoir.

"Staff at the US special mission in Benghazi woke on 11 September to the sight of a Libyan policeman, deployed to guard them, filming the compound from a neighbouring rooftop." "Two days earlier, the ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, had received a veiled warning." "According to one of his cables, one of his diplomats had a meeting with two Islamist militia leaders in which they complained that the US was supporting a secular leader, Mahmoud Jibril, in a vote for prime minister due on 12 September." "If Jibril won, they warned, they would "no longer guarantee security". The consulate was already relying on one of the militias, the February 17th Martyrs Brigade, for armed protection." Both the Muhammed Jamal network and Ansar al-Shariah are al-Qaeda affiliates. Therefore it was THREE al-Qaeda units that sent 150 men to carry out a carefully planned AND REHEARSED attack that lasted eight hours. All such attacks are rehearsed. They build scale models and rehearse. Then full scale somewhere - Maybe just lines on the ground. When the attack began, multiple people on the ground described the scale to Washington and the Pentagon. Everyone knew immediately that this was the real thing. So they decided to do nothing and let everybody die. The survivors have been ignored or belittled. Patricia Smith "It began around nightfall on Sept. 11 with around 150 bearded gunmen, some wearing the Afghan-style tunics favored by Islamic militants, sealing off the streets leading to the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi." "They set up roadblocks with pick-up trucks mounted with heavy machine guns... "The guard said he saw no protesters." "He heard a few shouts of 'God is great,' then a barrage of automatic weapons fire and rocket-propelled grenades began, along with barrages from heavy machine guns mounted on trucks." "The attack came from the front and the side. A neighbor whose house is on side of the consulate compound said militants with their faces wrapped in scarves attacking." "The effectiveness of the roadblocks was later revealed in the State Department's account of the evacuation. It described how the rescue force came under heavy fire and grenade attacks as they tried to leave the consulate area." "They evacuated staffers to a security compound across town, where they continued to come under fire. A precision mortar hit the compound's building at 4 a.m., killing two other Americans." "A Libyan security guard who tried to defend the compound but was wounded in the attack told CBS News correspondent Charlie D'Agata it had the marks of a planned attack." "'It was a set up,' he said. 'They were armed with automatic weapons. Some had their faces covered and wore flak jackets. It felt like there were hundreds of hundreds of them.'" Why didn’t they get help? Libya is in Africom – Combatant Commander has a CIF – Comander’s In Extremis Force. 10th Group – (EUCOM) was covering. When they call came in they were in Croatia at a training range. 15 minutes in a Chinook and they were at Zagreb where everything was already on a C-17 Globemaster. Zagreb to Benghazi – 1 hr 50 minutes. For a still unknown reason, an order was given to unload the C-17 and reload everything into two C-130 Hercules which then flew the CIF to Sigonella in Italy. THE SOC ordered them into action, Leon Panetta turned them to Sigonella. He later said he wanted them to go to a staging area. The whole point of CIF an SF is that they work without it if needed. That’s what makes them special. Laser designator? The Democrats and Press (Same thing) just call everything another conspiracy theory and dismiss it. Everyone needed Obama to have a 2nd That was the only way to keep the gravy train rolling. 9/16/2012 Rice 9/25/2012 Obama on Arab Spring - May 9 2016 (keep here) Ben Rhodes – Echo Chamber Bolton on Rhodes 10/22/12 – Obama to Romney – Cold War’s been over 5/2/2013 – Al Qaeda known within 24 hours – When did Rice lie?

In 2012, the Presidents of Venezuela and Iran met at the Miraflores Palace in Caracas. The bromance between Hugo Chávez and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad alarmed Washington, since Venezuela and Iran were (and still are) sworn enemies of the U.S. So Chávez had fun joking that Ahmadinejad had come to help him “fire large missiles” at America.

The podcast about non-academic careers and all the opportunities available to you...beyond your research degree! In our first episode Kelly Preece, Researcher Development Manager talks to Dr. Morgane Colleau and Cameron Hird who work in research support in the University of Exeter Professional Services.   Music from https://filmmusic.io 'Cheery Monday' by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com) License: CC BY (https://creativecommons.org/licenses   Podcast transcript   1 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:23,000 Hello and welcome to the Beyond your Research Degree podcast by the University of Exeter, Doctoral 2 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:30,000 Welcome to Episode one I'm Kelly Preece, research development manager in the doctoral college at the University of Exeter. 3 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,000 And I'll be your host today. 4 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:38,000 I'm delighted to be joined by my colleagues Morgane and Cameron, who both also work in professional services at the University of Exeter. 5 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:45,000 Morgane and Cameron, are going to talk to us today about that transition from being researchers to working behind the scenes in higher education and 6 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:52,000 particularly in research support and how they bring their skills and experience as a researchers into their current roles. 7 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:59,000 So good afternoon, everyone. So my name is Morgane and I'm a research development manager in the EU International Team. 8 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,000 And my role is set within research services. 9 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:08,000 And I thought today what I would do is to give you a little bit of information about my academic background 10 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:15,000 and then the professional route or routes that I've taken since completing my PhD in January 2016. 11 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:21,000 I've learnt a few things along the way, so I'm hoping that some of the things will be helpful to you. 12 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:28,000 So I first came to the University of Exeter as an Erasmus student for the third year of my undergraduate degree, 13 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,000 which means that I was only meant to be in the country for a year. It's now been eleven years. 14 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:44,000 So something went dramatically wrong. So what happened is I did enjoy my Erasmus year and I really enjoyed the research environments 15 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:50,000 that the University of Exeter could offer coming from a French higher education institution. 16 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,000 This is quite different, starting with the facilities and the resources that we have here. 17 00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:02,000 So say, for example, library access 24/7 and a huge amount of online resources that you have is not something 18 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:07,000 that in French higher education institution we wouldn't necessarily be able to access. 19 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:15,000 So after my residency, I decided to stay. And I did a part time master's in Middle East politics. 20 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:22,000 And I did it part time because at the time my English may have been reasonably good, but I find it really difficult to conceptualise in English. 21 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:27,000 So I find essay writing in a secondary language, quite a challenge. 22 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:33,000 And I also wanted to spend as much time as possible in the Middle East because that was my areas of fieldwork. 23 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,000 And then I stayed again for PhD this time, 24 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:46,000 which I also completed part time and I completed part time because I combined my PhD studies with a lot of professional opportunities are underway. 25 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:53,000 So I got involved with a lot of teaching in both the politics department and the Institute of Arabic and Islamic Studies. 26 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,000 I worked in consultancy and that was through opportunities with academics that I connected with. 27 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:06,000 Which was really good first hand experience in a world outside academia, but still informing policymakers directly. 28 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,000 And I worked in welfare support roles, so I worked a lot with undergraduate students living in halls of residence. 29 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,000 So as I said, altogether, completing a PhD part time. 30 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:23,000 And it took me about six years, I finally defended and completed in January 2016. 31 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:29,000 And so I had a slide prepared, which was about my existential crisis throughout. 32 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:34,000 my PhD with questions such as why? Why am I doing a PhD 33 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,000 I may have agreed to complete the beast and also had a bit of the imposter syndrome. 34 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:46,000 What do I actually know? And the thing about me is I went to my Viva with it, a bit of that imposter syndrome as well. 35 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000 So on the one hand, I was quite confident and I knew quite a bit about my topic. 36 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,000 I had researched Iranian nuclear policy during the Ahmadinejad presidency for six years. 37 00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:00,000 I lived in the Kurdistan region of Iraq. I interviewed Iranian officials extensively outside Iran. 38 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:10,000 But yet I didn't have that voice of authority or their feeling that I could actually speak and represent the Iranian regime very well as well. 39 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:18,000 So that was one thing that I had to juggle with throughout my PhD 40 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,000 And then the question was, well, what am I going to do now that I've completed? 41 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:30,000 Do I want to stay in academia? And deep down, I knew I didn't want to stay in academia, but that didn't really tell me what actually could I do. 42 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:37,000 And also, would I be a little bit of a failure if I didn't stay in academia or didn't try to stay in academia? 43 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:42,000 And at the time, I think I never really reflected on my range of transferable skills. 44 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:50,000 So I really hadn't reflected on what it is that I could actually offer to employers and what it is that I actually enjoy doing as well. 45 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:56,000 So there was an existential crisis of questions throughout the PhD and then post PhD 46 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:02,000 So I then went into my first role at the University of Exeter. 47 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:08,000 More out of curiosity. So I was a programme administrator for two professional. 48 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,000 Programmes in clinical psychology. So I sat within the doctor college. 49 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,000 And so this is completely different from my area of work because I left Middle East politics after I left academia 50 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:26,000 I went for a road that was probably on a much lower pay scale and spine point that I could have hoped for, having completed my PhD 51 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,000 But I really went into it out of curiosity. Why not? 52 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,000 I'm drawn to professional doctoral programmes it's a different route from what I've done. 53 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,000 I would be working with the NHS. I would be interested in this. 54 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,000 And I really enjoyed that role. Stayed there for two years. 55 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:50,000 And I think that is when I regained confidence and I started to become a lot more aware of my transferable skills. 56 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:56,000 So things that I could handle that maybe some of my counterparts find it a bit more difficult. 57 00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:02,000 I had a huge workload capacity compared to others. I was able to engage really well with academics. 58 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:07,000 I had an understanding of the PGR environment because I had just completed my thesis. 59 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:14,000 I was able to organise and project manage a wide range of targets and projects and so forth. 60 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:18,000 So I stay in this role for two years. I then I decided it is time for a change. 61 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000 I am still going to be staying at the University of Exeter. 62 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,000 And I moved sideways and I did an unusual thing where I went from one interview after the other 63 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:33,000 and at the end of them decided to combine three part time roles amounting to 1 FTE 64 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:41,000 So I had one 0.6 role, 60 percent F.T. in the doctoral college where I was the P.A. to the dean and the associate dean of the doctoral college. 65 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:49,000 I also worked for the quality development team. So that was a 60 percent FTE role, but actually with two types of responsibilities. 66 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:55,000 And then I had two 20 percent FTE roles on very large scale research projects. 67 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,000 So one was an EU grant and the other one was a Wellcome Trust. 68 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:04,000 So I work really closely with two senior academics on their project teams and that was fun. 69 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:11,000 But it is really unusual for someone I think at the University of Exeter to combine a variety of roles, not less. 70 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:17,000 Three amounting to 1 FTE And that's something I think served me well because that was noticed at interview stage. 71 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:27,000 And to this day, that is something I sell as evidence of my capacity to work in a variety of structures and team and services and systems. 72 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,000 But at that point, I thought, I need to wake up because this is actually not this very challenging enough. 73 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,000 So it is time now to stop moving sideways and try to move up. 74 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,000 It a bit more. And so that's what I've done. And this is how I ended up in my third role at the 75 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:51,000 The university, we could say where I was an impact and partnership development officer in a degree apprenticeship team in IIB. 76 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,000 So IIB stands for Innovation, Impact and Business, and that's the commercial team of the University of Exeter. 77 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,000 So what was great there is, again, I learnt new skills. So commercial engagement for me was really new 78 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:07,000 I had never been a relationship manager for an external company. 79 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:13,000 I was this time around the sole point of contact for engineering companies at the University of Exeter. 80 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000 So, again, really far away from my field of study in Middle East politics. 81 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:26,000 But there I discover that is really not for me because I'm not in a university because of my interest in commercial engagement. 82 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,000 Actually, I like working at a university because of the research focus. 83 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:38,000 So after six months, I left that role and I went for another higher grade role, which I got. 84 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:45,000 And this is how I am currently a research development manager. So over seven months, I managed to move twice and two grades up. 85 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:50,000 And I think now I'm probably operating at the right level, which is quite nice. 86 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,000 It will be another few years before I can aspire to a higher grade role. 87 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:59,000 So what is great about research of manager role? And a lot of us are PhD 88 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,000 holders in research services or a lot of us have left academia. 89 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:08,000 It's an area of work that seems to be attracting a lot of people with PhDs 90 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:14,000 I provide I work one to one with very senior academics, but also more junior academics. 91 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:20,000 And I support them with a research grant proposals that want to secure a new grant or an international grant. 92 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:26,000 I provide them with post awards support. So I discuss the research project ideas with them. 93 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:32,000 I advise them on ideas, few of ideal funding opportunities for them. 94 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:41,000 I do a lot of their budget. I do all the legal work that is involved negotiating with the EU European Commission, dealing with collaborators. 95 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:47,000 I then also induct them once they are successful to the terms and conditions of their grounds. 96 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000 And what is nice for me is that this is as close to academia as I ever wish to be again. 97 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:57,000 So I still have a foot in my field because actually I support social sciences quite a bit now. 98 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:02,000 I have a fit, but then I'm not carrying the weight of research myself, so I'm quite enjoying that. 99 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:07,000 I think I've become more aware as well of the skills that I develop throughout my PhD and 100 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,000 Definitely using those on a day to day basis. 101 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:18,000 So things like analysis and problem solving, interpersonal and leadership skills and being able to network and collaborate with others. 102 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:23,000 project management, being able to peer review an application, that's not always easy. 103 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:29,000 Provide feedback to a higher up academic. And then this is a road that brings great professional development opportunities. 104 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:36,000 So I'm able to manage now. I'm able sometimes to support younger academics with self leadership skills. 105 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:44,000 So in terms of how to supervise students sometimes as well, we have conversations and then I also do I additional qualifications. 106 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:52,000 So I'm also able to pursue professional development opportunities and recognition. 107 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,000 So sorry, I have to change page. So this is not good for the recording. 108 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:04,000 If we could. So then I just wanted to reflect on what's happened along the way because I have moved around quite a lot. 109 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,000 I think what has been helpful for me is working with a mentor. 110 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:16,000 So I identified a mentor that had also transitioned outside academia that is about 20 years older than me and was very comfortable with. 111 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,000 I'm a PhD holder. I left academia and here are the skills that I can offer. 112 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,000 That's a really safe space to have confidential conversations with. 113 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:31,000 And it's a good opportunity as well to explore things. And then you can reflect back on with your mentor. 114 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:38,000 So that helps. I also enrolled on the Aurora programme. So the Aurora, our programme is run by the Leadership Foundation. 115 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:44,000 And this is a women only focus programme. And it's really about focussing on our leadership skills. 116 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:51,000 And that was an opportunity for me at the time to really focus on myself and my sense of agency as opposed to what I wasn't. 117 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:58,000 I'm not an academic, but actually what else can I offer? Now was quite nice to switch from negative to positive. 118 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:04,000 It is at the time I decided, no, I'm going to move up and I'm going to do everything I can to try to get a higher grade job. 119 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:11,000 And I also met other women or other very different various stages. And it was nice and comforting to hear about her experiences. 120 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:15,000 I attended as many training courses as possible with the university. 121 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:21,000 And we have great I mean, I think our people development team do put on a great range of training courses. 122 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:27,000 So, again, good way of developing yourself skills, but becoming more aware as well of yourself, your working style. 123 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,000 What do you have to offer? 124 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:36,000 And as I say, I also pursuing professional qualifications through the ILM programme, which is a focus on leadership and management. 125 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:42,000 So that has helped me along the way in gaining that confidence over the last four years. 126 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,000 And so if I had two key takeaways for me, the PhD was a difficult journey. 127 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:52,000 And everyone I completed my PhD with was also in the same boat and also struggled, I think. 128 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:57,000 And and academia is not an easy choice. And it can be challenging, particularly people around. 129 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:05,000 You don't understand. Why would you not want to stay in academia? I think finding an aspiring career path can also be testing. 130 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:12,000 And for me, was definitely a need to review process of I'll go a bit everywhere until I find what resonates. 131 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000 What I've learnt is that it's worth taking risks. 132 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:21,000 So I did jump in my career and role that, I mean, was only a six month opportunity to start with. 133 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,000 But I decided that I wanted to explore and see if it worked for me. 134 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:31,000 So I think that is sometimes worth doing for me, was worth trying different paths to find myself. 135 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:39,000 I think what worked for me as well was to identify role models. So I've been really inspired by women that I work with. 136 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,000 And when I would see them at meetings, I would be like, this is what I want to be like in a few years time. 137 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:52,000 That is an inspiring career path. I think it was also what some people along the way to become a bit more reflective of, actually. 138 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:57,000 What did I achieve during my PhD? What skills did I develop? 139 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:04,000 What am I quite good at? And also trying to sell a bit more and better what I did alongside my studies. 140 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,000 So not every PhD student who would have had a consulting experience. 141 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,000 Not every PhD student would have lived in a war zone and so forth. 142 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,000 So, you know, what else can I sell to me for? 143 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:22,000 To this day, my PhD still holds value. So not much in terms of actual academic advancements, 144 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:29,000 but I think it is it adds to my credibility when working with academics on reviewing their proposals, for example. 145 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,000 I think it does give me a bit more credibility. I think it served me well. 146 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:39,000 I think it's helped me in terms of scientific thinking and or my leadership skills and to this day. 147 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:49,000 So three, four years after completing my PhD. Finally, the sense of failure or the fear of failure has completely disappeared. 148 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:55,000 So there are no regrets. And it's quite a nice place to be in because I wasn't in that position two years ago. 149 00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:07,000 So there's been a nice journey in that sense. Good afternoon, everyone. 150 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:15,000 My name is Cameron Hurd, and I actually currently manage animal cultures in our aquarium here at the University of Exeter. 151 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,000 So I work on the technical services. 152 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:26,000 So I'm in a bit of a weird situation because I've been in this role full time now for a year, but I'm still finishing off looking at my PhD. 153 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,000 So that will be submitted in about three months time. 154 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:39,000 So that just shows that there is the opportunity to be able to go off and start doing jobs while you're continuing the PhD. 155 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:48,000 So my PhD was in marine biology subject here. I was looking at the impacts of pharmaceuticals release from wastewater on marine animals. 156 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,000 And during my PhD, I was really enjoying it and things like that. 157 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:57,000 But more and more questioning, what do I want to do after my PhD? 158 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,000 Right. From the age of six, I decided that I wanted to be a marine biologist. 159 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,000 What a six year old thinks and marine biologist is a very different reality. 160 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:12,000 So you think you'll be swimming with whales and dolphins when you're that age? Actually, the reality is, is a very different sort of role 161 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:20,000 So I knew I wanted to stick with that. But the purely academic route, I just wasn't sure that was what is working for me. 162 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000 So I moved away from this. 163 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:29,000 traditional PhD, head to academiatype route for many reasons. 164 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:39,000 Some of them with things like job security say things like postdocs were limited to six months a year, two years at most sort of thing. 165 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,000 I was looking at sort of more of work life balance and things like that throughout my career. 166 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:47,000 Today, I often found that I was working all the time, even in my spare time. 167 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:52,000 I was working and I wanted to sort of break away from that a little bit. 168 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,000 Both I wanted to have some flexibility. in where i was working. 169 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,000 So my personal situation is that my partner is based in Exeter, 170 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:07,000 so I can't necessarily move for job because I have to think of her role as well and as her being the chief income earner, 171 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:12,000 her job has to some extent take priority over mine. So I needed more flexibility and things like that. 172 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:20,000 Standard academic career is a bit more flexible. You often expected to move for the new position that you might be taking. 173 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:29,000 So what my current role actually involves is day to day I'm managing an entire area of the aquarium. 174 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,000 So I support a research group. I support eight members of that research group. 175 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,000 I help out with the experimental work. I look after the animals. 176 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:46,000 So that ranges from so low ranking jobs, like cleaning, feeding, transferring animals up to a higher rung, 177 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:57,000 jobs like creating new genetic crosses to producing brand new protocols for the culture of these animals. 178 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:04,000 So I work predominantly with marine worms, but I also work with things like jelly fish and other species like that. 179 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:11,000 So this was quite a nice role because it allowed me to have that crossover between I'm still doing some research type activities. 180 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:16,000 I'm still actually producing data that I can publish papers with. 181 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:22,000 But it's just not quite the same pressures as sort of a full time academic to. 182 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:31,000 So one thing that I took away from this was actually I felt like I was going in at a lower level, a lower rung, but I felt like I should be. 183 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:36,000 I know I took a lot of people off during the PhD and they say, ah, after I finished my PhD 184 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,000 I wanted to be earning as much money and I won't be getting below that. 185 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:46,000 And oh, I feel like my PhD should give me a much more professional job afterwards. 186 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:52,000 But what I found with this was that actually sometimes you got to start yourself a bit lower off, a bit lower down. 187 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:59,000 So I didn't mind the fact that I was going into some of the more menial tasks like cleaning out animals and things like that, because actually, 188 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:06,000 once you're in those positions, you've got a foothold and then you've really got a chance to advertise yourself, show that you can do things. 189 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:14,000 You can do so much more than that. So that was quite important thing to notice. 190 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:20,000 And actually, there were many transferable skills from my first day, as well as a PhF student. 191 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:25,000 You were essentially your project manager, that you're managing your own project. 192 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000 You're coming up with ideas, you're putting them into practise and things like that. 193 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,000 Say, actually, there are many skills you can take away from that and you can take into any profession, 194 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:39,000 whether it's academic, whether it's non-academic. What I actually found was quite difficult as I was nearing the end of my PhD in 195 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:45,000 terms of looking for employment was a lot of people will look at you and they'll view, 196 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,000 especially if you've been through a career such as mine, 197 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:56,000 where I went straight from school straight into my degree and then straight from my undergraduate degree straight to PhD. 198 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,000 So I didn't have any breaks in between any working between people then viewing 199 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:05,000 my applications for things as though I was overqualified but under experienced 200 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:12,000 And although I did various part time jobs throughout my PhD. Things like teaching, outreach work, all sorts of things like that. 201 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:17,000 I found that actually for the types of jobs that I was applying for, whether they were technical jobs, 202 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:25,000 whether they were working in things like ecology, conservation, anything like that, they were looking for more experience. 203 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,000 So actually, if someone wants to tell me one piece of advice, what would I think? 204 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,000 What would I give to someone else in a similar situation? 205 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:39,000 I'd say if you've got an idea in mind, try and get some experience in it before you're getting to that point that you're looking for jobs, 206 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:44,000 because although you may feel like actually you could do that job brilliantly to appeal to an employer, 207 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:50,000 you need to have both the experience and the qualifications and not just one not the other. 208 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,000 So what I found was that there were many transferable skills. 209 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:00,000 So as I would to say, you're asking for this, but I can do this. And that's how it relates. 210 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,000 So things like project management skills, things at managing projects, 211 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:13,000 which you do with your employer budgets and things like using the initiative, you might be coming up with you new experiments, things like that, 212 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:19,000 during a PhD that showing that you're using initiative to communicate to people throughout your PhD where they're on a small scale, 213 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:24,000 whether you're talking to professionals, whether you're talking to the lay person, 214 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:32,000 there are all different transferable skills that you can pass on to your post academic life. 215 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,000 So unusually, the way my job panned out. 216 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,000 Although I am sort of balancing PhD, finishing off and full time employment, 217 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:47,000 it's allowed me to keep my foot in both camps because I'm still involved in the research. 218 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:55,000 But I'm still little, say, able to do other things slightly, I guess less taxing on my mind type jobs, 219 00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:02,000 things that just allow you a bit of a break after your PhD. And actually, in the year that I've been doing this sort of role, 220 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,000 I've now had a complete change in job role and having an assistant coming in 221 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:11,000 to help me out within the next few months and lined up for a new job role, 222 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:18,000 a 50 percent pay increase. And then I'll be earning what I might have hoped to earn straight after payday anyway. 223 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:23,000 So there really are all these progression routes and they're really, really helpful. 224 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,000 So I would just say it's been a really enjoyable process, actually. 225 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:33,000 Just moving slightly away off one side from academia, but equally giving myself the option to come back. 226 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:43,000 And in a way, I'm sort of coming full circle, but just able to test the waters with what I think is best for me. 227 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,000 Thank you to Morgane and Cameron for sharing their experience with us. 228 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:53,000 There's some really useful tips in there about taking some time to reflect both during and after you've completed 229 00:22:53,000 --> 00:23:00,000 your research degree to really think about what's important to you in terms of your work and your work life balance, 230 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:05,000 but also the kinds of skills you developed and the kinds of roles you might want to go into. 231 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:09,000 I was really interested to hear both Cameron and Morgane talking about going in at 232 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:14,000 slightly lower level jobs than they perhaps would have wanted after a PhD 233 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,000 but progressing through those into more senior roles really very quickly due 234 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,000 to the experiences and skills they gained throughout their research degree. 235 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:28,000 You can find links to information about both Morgane and Cameron, their research, their current roles, 236 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:35,000 and the various different training and development opportunities they mentioned in the show notes. 237 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:50,805 And that's it for this episode. Join us next time when we'll be talking to another researcher about their career beyond their research degree.    

Faithful & Fearless: Lesson 4/Days 9 and 10 Esther 3:7-15 While Haman and Ahasuerus are drinking it up, God’s people – actually all of Susa – are in confusion. Terror and fear are spreading across all of Persia. This evil edict schedules the genocide of the Jews and is being carried from province to province. Haman isn’t the first to make plans against God’s people. The situation may look terribly hopeless, but God is making a way. All through history men have plotted to kill the Jews. What’s interesting, is that while racism exists between all ethnicities and that racism may well show up in evil and destructive ways, annihilation is the repeated plot of evil people through time against the Jews – not just enslaving, or persecuting, or killing off – but total annihilation. Haman is just one tool in a long line that Satan has used since the beginning to cut off God’s people. Hitler didn’t just want to kill Jews, he set out to exterminate them. The situation may look terribly hopeless, but God is making a way   The former and current presidents of Iran (modern Persia) have literally called for its people to curse Israel and have vowed to exterminate all Jews and “wipe Israel off the map” (Ahmadinejad, president of Iran, 2005.) Isn’t this exactly how evil men behave? And yet, God’s unchanging word is clear: “The wicked plot against the righteous...but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming.” We may not feel the panic of persecution today, but we need to. As throughout time, “Cast your burden on the Lord,” David wrote in Psalm 55, “and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved.” We may not feel the panic of persecution today, but we need to. We need to feel the burden, the fear, the desperation because God’s people – Jew and Christian alike –  are being persecuted* this very day around the world. We must not brush off the reality with apathy like King Ahasuerus did any more than we would personally plot do destroy God’s people. This is not to say that we live with that burden on us, not at all! We have to feel it, be aware of it, and faithfully give it to God who is ready to take our burdens. There is only one remedy, one relief, one redeemer for all of this, and that tale is even older than the Garden. It’s our Savior and God – Jesus the Messiah. The week I wrote this study over 100 Christians were slaughtered in their homes and churches in Nigeria. The week before that, hundreds more believers in China were killed, jailed, or punished for meeting as Christians. By the time you read this, thousands more will have been tortured, jailed, or killed. God’s people are targets for destruction. Persecution and plotting against God’s people is a tale as old as time. It’s as old as the Garden and Satan’s plot to overthrow Heaven itself. There is only one remedy, one relief, one redeemer for all of this and that tale is even older than the Garden. It’s our Savior and God – Jesus the Messiah. Although God’s name is never mentioned in Esther, he is present. Although God is not heard, he is speaking as He commands His angels to move on our behalf. God was moving and active – like his own Word – revealing the truth and preparing the way for salvation. In the midst of the confusion in Susa God was orchestrating all people and events so that His people would be saved. God is doing that today. He’s active in the world on behalf of the persecuted believers in Nigeria, China, and Syria. Our part is to be active as well not apathetic. Helen Keller said, “Science may have found a cure for most evils, but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all – the apathy of human beings.” (My Religion, p162) We cannot condemn Haman or any evil if we are not willing to confess the apathy in our own hearts. Confess that today. Repent and pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for the hearts of all who love God and claim to follow Jesus Christ to truly love and follow Him faithfully and fearlessly. ~ Jennifer Richmond *https://www.opendoorsusa.org/christian-persecution/

Our first guests look at soiltary confinement through the lens of Sarah Shourd's play The Box, at Z-Space through July 30. Sarah is joined by Jerry Elster, consultant: Jerry Elster is the Healing Justice Coordinator for American Friends Service Committee (AFSC). He is also a formerly incarcerated person. He has a in forensic psychology. He is pursuing a doctorate in forensic psychology. He has worked in the field of Mentoring, Substance Abuse Counseling, Restorative Justice, and Advocacy. He serves on the advisory board for Oakland & the World, a venture to aid formerly incarcerated people and those facing employment challenges to gain cooperative economic advancement by becoming owners of their own businesses. He is a member of All of Us or None, a movement-led organization that advocates for the rights of prisoners and their families. Jerry's trials have taught him how essential it is for people to speak and be heard in their own voices. He believes that, people without a voice are a people without hope. His goal is for human and civil rights for everyone regardless of origin or prior arrest history: http://www.afsc.org/content/jerry-elster Sarah Shourd is an author, prisoner rights advocate, Contributing Editor at Solitary Watch, and a Visiting Scholar at UC Berkeley—currently based in Oakland, California. Sarah was held as a political hostage by the Iranian government from 2009-2010. Sarah was held incommunicado in solitary confinement for 410 days before being released, without a trial or any evidence shown against her, by President Ahmadinejad on “compassionate grounds,” a move designed to ease international pressure against the Iranian government: We close with a conversation with Chaz Shermil & Kimba Daniels, cast in Katori Hall's Hurt Village, up through Sunday at Ubuntu Theatre Project in Oakland. 

In Iran, It is not just Ahmadinejad who slams homosexuals, many people also deny homosexuality or know very little about it. So how does one family cope when they realise their daughter is gay? This is the story of the collective struggle of a supportive and close-knit family, who are trying to find a solution for this "crisis", each in their own way.

After 8 years of Ahmadinejad, Iran's clerical leaders have tried minimize controversy in tomorrow's presidential election. But political opposition may rise to the surface.

The rise - and legacy - of outgoing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. How did this provincial politician with a PhD in traffic management came to take on Iran's ruling clerics?

In The Politics of Nationalism in Modern Iran (Cambridge University Press, 2012), Ali Ansari traces the nationalist movement in Iran from the Tobacco Revolt of 1891 up to the current government led by president Ahmadinejad. Ansari explains how the events of the early 20th century led to the more well known events of Iran's recent history, providing detailed insight into the key people that have been a part of Iran's nationalist movement. The book explains the internal struggles that the movement has faced in the past century, along with the outside influences that effected its development. Ansari describes how Ahmadinejad has used nationalism to his advantage, and what he sees as the future for political participation in Iran.

On today's show, a look at the parallels between the Purim Story in ancient Persia and what is going on today in modern-day Iran and Israel...What is the same, and what is different... VERY different, including highlights of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to AIPAC in America this week...Purim revisited?...Never again!!! Plus...The beauty of Purim in Israel...The Purim Holiday like you've never, ever experienced it in the diaspora...This should make you yearn to return home to Israel from exile... Also...Wealth in Israel...Multiple surprising reports about the meteoric growth of wealth in the tiny Jewish State... All this and more on The Marty Roberts Show

This is a supplemental episode of our podcast series, “The Podcast for Social Research.” In this episode, we have an informal conversation between one of our fellows, Soraya Batmanghelichi and myself (Ajay) about the situation within Iran after the controversial 2009 re-election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. In this conversation, we discuss the current political situation in Iran, a bit of history, the status of the “Green Movement” and the women's movement in Iran today, and the role of new (and old) technologies in all of these. There's even a bit about the strange, contemporary, and co-producing transmission and feedback of discontent between the Green Movement, the Arab Spring, and even Occupy Wall Street. Occasionally, you'll hear us talk strangely around, under, and sometimes completely edited out concerning certain subjects that were deemed potentially too sensitive. We hope you understand. For more info please see our website. 

When Iran makes the news it is often that country's flamboyant and provocative president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who finds himself under the spotlight. But the man who wields real power in Iran is not Ahmadinejad, nor was it any of his predecessors as president. Instead it is the man who has served as the head of the country's religious structure since 1989, the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.The Ayatollah owes his rise to power to two men - his predecessor as Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and the previous president, Hashemi Rafsanjani. Ayatollah Khamenei has been a cleric for most of his life, beginning as a religious scholar in the city of Mashhad at the tender age of 11. He served several terms in jail as a result of his religious convictions during the secular dictatorship of the Shah. His rise to power began with the revolution of 1979 that turned Iran into the Islamic Republic. Khamenei became, first president, a post with relatively little power, and his election as Supreme Leader after the death of Khomenei was a surprise to all. Many believe this was engineered by Rafsanjani to allow Rafsanjani himself to remain in control.But Khamenei has gradually made himself the most powerful man in Iran - and he's done so by recruiting the Revolutionary Guard to his side. There are those who say that far from a religious dictatorship, Iran is in fact a military dictatorship. But Ali Khamenei is 72 and with 70 per cent of the Iranian population having been born since the revolution, it's not clear that the post of Supreme Leader will survive his death.Producer TIM MANSEL Presenter JAMES REYNOLDS.

The rescue of 33 miners in northwestern Chile is going well.  We hear how it was put together, what the miners face in the future and much more. Also, Ahmadinejad gets a hero's welcome from Hezbollah supporters in Lebanon. On Reporter's Notebook, does "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" have a future?

In Geneva tomorrow, the United States will sit down for direct negotiations with Iran for the first time in three decades. The US, France, Britain, China, Russia and Germany will push for greater transparency on Iran's nuclear program, and threaten sanctions if President Ahmadinejad refuses to cooperate. What can the West hope to achieve at the talks? Will Russia and China agree to stepping up the pressure on Iran? Also,  earthquakes and tsunamis strike Samoa, and pitching the Olympics. The Obamas take Chicago's case to Copenhagen. Sara Terry guest hosts.

Barack Obama is attempting to regain control of the debate on healthcare reform. His proposals drew criticism from conservatives at a series of town hall meetings in August, and Republican senators, once considered potential partners in bi-partisanship, have openly attacked the plan. Guest host Sara Terry considers the prospects for reform, the President's strategy in his speech to Congress next week, and whose support he'll need to win. Also, Iran's parliament approves President Ahmadinejad's cabinet, and a look back at Teddy Kennedy -- in his own words.

Iran's President Ahmadinejad has been sworn in for a second term. We look at the political, economic and diplomatic obstacles he'll face in the next four years. Also, a high-profile assignment has Bill Clinton back on the world stage. What are the implications for Kim Jong Il, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton?

Forget about being labeled as "soft on crime," states all over the country are cutting back on prisons. A 20-year crackdown has led to a $100 billion financial shortfall.  Are there cheaper alternatives that still protect public safety? Will the crisis lead to reform? Also, Iran's Supreme Leader endorses Ahmadinejad, and the remains of a American combat casualty have been identified--18 years later.

Women's Magazine  will look at the struggle of Women in Iran.    We will talk with York University Sociologist, Haideh Moghissi about the Iranian women's struggle for Equality in the aftermath of the 1979 revolution, the challenges they have faced and the strategies they have devised to reform the discriminatory laws against women.   And we will talk to  Malihe Razazan of KPFA's voices of the Middle East and North Africa  about  women's roles in the ongoing mass protests challenging the outcome of June 12th presidential election that handed president Ahmadinejad a second term. And we will hear Jovelyn's World, the Women's Community Calendar and information about the upcoming LSB election. The post Women´s Magazine – June 29, 2009 appeared first on KPFA.

In Iran, recent weeks have seen a surprisingly hard fought election campaign. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad faces a strong challenge from reformist Mir-Hossein Mousavi, who's broken with convention by campaigning with his outspoken wife at his side. Will urban women and youth tip the scales towards Mousavi, or will hardliners and the rural poor help re-elect Ahmadinejad? How will the outcome affect politics in the region and relationships with the West? Also, President Obama calls Green Bay a model for healthcare reform, and evidence emerges about what went wrong for Air France Flight 447 over the Atlantic more than a week ago. Sara Terry guest hosts.

The Obama White House has created an energy "czar," an urban affairs "czar," an economic "czar" and a health "czar."  There's been talk of a car "czar." Today, the President said he's appointing a "czar" to deal with cyber-security. We look at the problem and ask if a new "czar" is the best way to find a solution. Also, GM's possible deal with Canadian auto parts maker Magna, and politics and potatoes in Ahmadinejad's Iran.

durée : 00:57:55 - Les Grandes Traversées - Débat. Avoir aujourd'hui 30 ans en Iran, c'est avoir l'âge de révolution. Est-ce une génération endormie que ces jeunes qui ont dragué pour la première fois sous Khatami mais doivent composer avec le retour des interdits voulu par Ahmadinejad ?

Dave analyzes Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's UN speech and Iranian reaction and tries to find the hidden meaning

Dave finds an eerie parallel between the thinking of a certain Iranian leader and a familiar American policy

Presidents Bush and Ahmadinejad at the same place at the same time. We look at the United Nations 62nd General Assembly session. On Reporter's Notebook, is the US ready for a comeback of nuclear power? 

The United Nations has cracked down and Iran has snapped back. Will sanctions have any effect? Plus, the US military reaches another grim milestone in Iraq, and the assault on the middle class of America and why one author says the Democrats should pay attention. Sara Terry guest hosts.
