Saints fought back from 2-0 down at half-time against Ayr United to win 4-2 and extend their lead at the top of the Championship to three points, once again. With more bodies than usual in the opposition box, Saints looked as dangerous as they have all season. So, with Morton the opponents on Saturday - and at the end of the week that news emerged of Josh McPake's pre-contract move to Hearts - will the Perth side keep faith with the changes that served them so well at Somerset Park?

“La nonna di tutta l'Europa”: così qualcuno ha definito Madame Leprince de Beaumont, che nel 1756 fissò su pagina la forma ancora oggi più nota de La Bella e la Bestia. Si tratta di una storia molto più antica rispetto alle scritture a cavallo tra Sei e Settecento, nata nella tradizione orale, che prende poi forma in diverse varianti letterarie. Un elemento costante è proprio quello del mostruoso. Nel nuovo episodio di Monstrumana, il podcast sui ‘mostri umani' della letteratura, ricostruiamo la genealogia di questa fiaba analizzando nel dettaglio la versione di Beaumont, che utilizza il mostruoso come dispositivo educativo rivolto soprattutto alle giovani dell'Ancien Régime, fino ad arrivare alle riscritture moderne di Angela Carter, “La corte di Mr. Lyon” e “La sposa della tigre”, soffermandoci sugli elementi di continuità e su quelli di rottura. Ché come ogni fiaba (e ogni mostro) insegna: tutto può trasformarsi.

The Basilica of St. Mary Institute for Faith and Culture Presents: Beauty and the Beast, an Exploration of the Power of Beauty Part 1 of 5 With Fr. James Searby This first episode of Beauty and the Beast opens with one of the most unforgettable scenes in The Shawshank Redemption, where a single piece of music breaks open a prison and reminds hardened men that their souls are still alive. From there, we explore what beauty actually does to the human heart, why it stirs hope, and how it can lift us beyond the walls of our own routine and cynicism. Drawing on art history, architecture, philosophy, childhood wonder, and everyday encounters with beauty, Fr. James Searby lays out the story of how our culture drifted from a world shaped by transcendent beauty into a landscape that often feels flat and utilitarian. More importantly, he shows why beauty matters now more than ever, and how it can become an entry point for renewal, depth, and authentic encounter with God. This episode sets the foundation for the whole series, inviting you to slow down, look again, and rediscover the freedom and hope that beauty awakens in every soul.
The Basilica of St. Mary Institute for Faith and Culture Presents: Beauty and the Beast, an Exploration of the Power of Beauty, Part 2 With Fr. James Searby In this second episode of Beauty and the Beast, we step deeper into the story itself and uncover why this simple tale carries so much spiritual and human truth. Fr. James Searby explores the opening arc of the Beast, not as a children's plot point, but as a mirror of our own culture's drift into subjectivism, hurry, and the loss of virtue. Drawing from the older French versions of the tale, the golden age of Disney storytelling, and the wisdom of Aquinas, Balthasar, Plato, John Paul II, Simone Weil, and more, he shows how beauty forms the soul and why its absence slowly makes us less human. Belle's contemplative posture in a frantic village becomes a lesson in resisting the rush of modern life, while the Beast's curse reveals what happens when we turn inward and forget who we are. This episode opens up the rose, the mirror, the meaning of enchantment, and the hard truth that love and beauty both require us to slow down and see reality again. It's a thoughtful, richly layered conversation that will change the way you watch the film and the way you understand your own hunger for what is beautiful, noble, and true.
The Basilica of St. Mary Institute for Faith and Culture Presents: Beauty and the Beast, an Exploration of the Power of Beauty, Part 3 With Fr. James Searby In this third episode of Beauty and the Beast, Fr. James Searby takes us into the heart of why beauty matters so deeply, not only artistically, but spiritually and morally. This class looks at the collision between a culture shaped by modern narcissism and a Christian vision where beauty, truth, and goodness are real, objective, and radiant. Using the story of Beauty and the Beast as a lens, he explores how our hurried, self-referential age blinds us to beauty and slowly disconnects us from what makes us human. From the sacramental meaning of the body to the power of the Eucharist, from Freud's mirror to Milton's Satan, from Gaston's hollow charm to the Beast's slow awakening, this episode traces how distraction and self-creation deform the soul, and how beauty becomes the doorway back to reality. With help from Aquinas, Balthasar, Scruton, Simone Weil, John Paul II, and classic stories like The Sound of Music, Babette's Feast, and This Beautiful Fantastic, we learn how to train the eye, the heart, and the imagination to recognize real beauty again. This episode is both an unflinching diagnosis of our cultural moment and a hopeful call to rediscover the contemplative life that heals, restores, and opens us to God.
The Basilica of St. Mary Institute for Faith and Culture Presents: Beauty and the Beast, an Exploration of the Power of Beauty, Part 4 With Fr. James Searby In this fourth class of Beauty and the Beast, we explore beauty as communion, the way beauty draws us out of isolation and into relationship. Through Maurice's tenderness, Belle's self-giving, and the gradual healing of the Beast's house, Fr. James Searby shows how beauty creates openness, vulnerability, and shared life. Drawing on Scruton, Simone Weil, Martha Graham, theatre, liturgy, and the communal nature of art, this episode traces how beauty breaks self-enclosure, makes space for others, and restores what fear and hurry have disordered. It also looks at the danger of cultural elitism in the arts and why beauty belongs to everyone, not to a select few. At its heart, this class reveals how beauty invites us into a deeper communion with God and one another, preparing the way for next week's theme of beauty as contemplation.
The Basilica of St. Mary Institute for Faith and Culture Presents: Beauty and the Beast, an Exploration of the Power of Beauty, Part 5 of 5 With Fr. James Searby In this final class of Beauty and the Beast, we look at the tale's two feasts to understand beauty as a path back to communion, meaning, and sacramentality. The tavern scene becomes a picture of the ego- loud, empty, and isolating, while "Be Our Guest" reveals what self-giving love looks like when a community pours itself out in joy. From there, Fr. James Searby explores the vocation of the artist, the vulnerability of real creativity, and the way beauty acts almost like a sacramental, opening the soul to grace. This class traces the larger cultural story as well, from the Baroque renewal of the Church to the rise of modernity and postmodernity, and finally to our quiet rediscovery of wonder today. Using the fairy tale as a map, the episode shows how the loss of beauty disfigures a culture and how its return restores the human heart. At its center is the conviction that beauty heals, reveals, and reunites, and that when we allow ourselves to receive it, the beast in all of us begins to become whole again.

"You took away everything I had. Everything I ever was!" After an explosive mid-season 2-parter, X-Position returns with a pair of stand-alone episodes picking right back up with the familiar character-focused format. And while another three episodes remain, these installments will actually round out the character spotlights that have come to define the show's second season. "A Rogue's Tale" functions as something of an origin for its titular character, as ghosts of the past come back to inform events in the present. It's a crunchy, lore-heavy episode no doubt satisfying for longtime X-Men fans, featuring a deep dive into Rogue's tortured past, tutelage under Mystique, and a prominent role for Ms. Marvel all reframed to fit the context of this animated universe. It smartly puts Professor Xavier's disappearance to use as a plot point, making clear that the central conflict is only made possible by his absence. Less satisfying is its conclusion, which essentially confines an innocent woman to solitary confinement and calls it a day. While far from being presented as a happy ending, it's unclear where the show ultimately lands on the existential question of how Carol Danvers' disembodied consciousness should be regarded - resulting in some muddled messaging ethically. On the other side of the coin, "Beauty and the Beast" takes a closer look at Dr. Henry McCoy's interior life, a topic that is naturally of heightened interest given how little time viewers have spent with him relative to other characters. Aside from a quick scene of Hank reminiscing over some family photos, this episode is differentiated from the season's other character studies in that it is largely unconcerned with mining its protagonist's past. The approach makes sense given Beast's relatively stable upbringing. Despite his "heteromorphic" appearance, Beast has largely been presented as the character most at ease with his mutation and public image - whether as a mutant, accomplished scientist, or pardoned felon. Hitting Hank where it hurts the most means discrediting his accolades and good nature - and most pointedly, dashing a promise of love that he has long denied himself - solely on the basis of him being a highly visible mutant. All put to great effect by the militant anti-mutant Graydon Creed. It gives Beast the rare opportunity to cut lose while Wolverine employs the art of subterfuge in a satisfying role reversal, capped off with Creed's ironic comeuppance. X-TRA: Another version of these episodes might have seen their otherwise disparate plots woven together by way of a common element: none of other than Mystique. While Rogue's upbringing by Mystique is the driving force in "A Rogue's Tale," we also have one side of Graydon Creed's parentage revealed in "Beauty and the Beast." Sabretooth is confirmed to be Creed's father, but his mother in fact being Mystique remains a mystery for another day. Despite this familial connection, the latter is actually the only episode of the season in which Rogue does not appear.

“She's the most beautiful girl in town. That makes her the best, and don't I deserve the best?” Remember that line from Gaston in Beauty and the Beast?

Show respect with your words, actions, and entertainment decisions. Your sons will see that. 4.

DEXTER SAVES LUMEN!! Dexter Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Dexter Season 5, Episodes 1 & 2 Reaction: • DEXTER SEASON 5 Episode 1 & 2 REACTION!! M... Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ Andrew & John continue their journey with the Dark Passenger as they RETURN to give their Dexter Season 5 Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Spoiler Review! Andrew Gordon & John Humphrey react to Dexter Season 5, Episodes 3 (“Practically Perfect”) & 4 (“Beauty and the Beast”), continuing the gripping journey of Showtime's iconic crime thriller series starring Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under, Gamer). After the emotional devastation of Season 4's finale, Dexter Morgan must navigate grief, guilt, and his ever-present “dark passenger” while finding a disturbing new sense of purpose. In these episodes, Dexter forms a fragile and fateful connection with Lumen Pierce, played by Julia Stiles (10 Things I Hate About You, The Bourne Ultimatum), a survivor of brutal trauma whose appearance threatens to unravel Dexter's controlled world. As he juggles single fatherhood, his secret life as a vigilante killer, and a dangerous new ally, the stakes grow higher than ever. The stellar ensemble includes Jennifer Carpenter (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Limitless) as Debra Morgan, Desmond Harrington (Gossip Girl, The Dark Knight Rises) as Detective Quinn, Lauren Vélez (Oz, Ugly Betty) as Lieutenant Maria LaGuerta, C.S. Lee (Chuck, The League) as Masuka, and David Zayas (Gotham, The Expendables) as Angel Batista. Iconic and highly searched moments include Dexter and Lumen's first tense encounter, Debra's mounting frustration with the police department, Dexter's “perfect kill room” setup, and the creeping moral bond forming between killer and victim. These episodes mark a crucial turning point in Dexter's evolution — blending emotional depth with shocking violence, and setting up one of the series' most compelling arcs. Dark, haunting, and unexpectedly human, Season 5 continues to explore what happens when redemption and revenge blur into one.

Hello there!! Welcome to Alberts bookshelf. We hope you enjoy listening to Beauty and the Beast one of Alberts favourite books.Thanks for Listening.
We all love a good love story, whether it's a timeless novel like Pride and Prejudice, or a Disney classic like Beauty and the Beast. But as enchanting as these fictional tales may be, there's one love story that's as powerful as it is true—and that's the tale of Ruth and Boaz! Pastor John Munro explores the beautiful lessons to be found in this biblical love story.
Show Notes This week it's a love story as old as time along with just a dash of Stockholm Syndrome as we watch Beauty and the Beast. Regarded by many (including one of us) as peak Disney, this film has it all - a girl who looks down on all her neighbors, a boy who looks down on all of his neighbors, and a beast who looks down on everyone - the perfect set-up for love. A lot of the discussion this week is on the time-vortex that is an enchanted castle, along with where are all the French people in this movie set in France?

Gomer lives! As does the deep dive into Aristotle's Poetics. This time, it's Beauty and the Beast. Enjoy! Thank you to Saint Kolbe Studios (https://saintkolbestudios.com/) for producing this episode of Catching Foxes!
Join me (Anna Stone) and guest host Emma Kirst as we discuss my number 1 pick of the season, 1991's Beauty and the Beast.

This week on Toon'd In!, Jim Cummings welcomes the legendary and endlessly creative Don Hahn! As the producer behind some of Disney's most beloved classics — Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, and The Hunchback of Notre Dame — Don has helped shape the very heart of modern animation, and now he's here to share the magic behind the magic.In this fascinating and inspiring episode, Don takes us inside the golden age of Disney Renaissance storytelling, offering a rare peek behind the curtain at how some of the most iconic films ever made came to life. From the challenges of pioneering new animation techniques to the emotional storytelling that made audiences around the world laugh, cry, and believe in fairy tales again — it's a masterclass in creativity and collaboration.Jim and Don dive deep into the art of storytelling, the evolution of animation, and the people and passion that bring timeless tales to the screen. With heartfelt memories, behind-the-scenes gems, and a few laughs along the way, this episode celebrates the magic that happens when imagination meets artistry.
Show Notes We're heading south of the equator with Miss Bianca and the inimitable Bernard in the Rescuers Down Under. This movie deserves more than it got (thanks Katzenberg). The story of young Cody and his one child crusade against poachers needing the RAS to come help him is beautiful and well told. The big thing that could have made it better was an indigenous protagonist (again, thanks Katzenberg). But Miss Bianca, Bernard the hero, Jake the strapping but kind guide, Wilber, and McCleach are all fantastic and the animation is stunning. RIP every actor in the film, but thank you for your excellent work.
