The legends of Rhiannon come primarily from the Mabinogion, a cycle of fourth Welsh myths that tell, in part, the story of Pwyll Pen Annwn who married Rhiannon. The stories date to the twelfth century although their origins likely go much further back in Celtic history. Rhiannon is a Welsh witch or druid who uses her power to escape an unwanted courtship and marry the man she chooses. But a lie finds her subject to a terrible penance that has linked her with Epona, goddess of horses, ever since. We tell the story of Rhiannon and Pwyll and also her marriage to Manawydan, brother of Branwen, after Pwyll's disappearance.

In their ninth Advent 2023 mini-episode, Eleanor and Martin are talking Four Colley Birds, and not 'Calling Birds' at all!From 'Sing a Song of Sixpence,' which dates back to the Renaissance, to Celtic myths like The Tale of Branwen and The Three Birds of Rhiannon, they discuss how the blackbird occupies a very strange position in folklore. Not least in two really strange tales, one of which sees the Patron Saint of Europe stripping naked and jumping into a bed of stinging nettles, and another which culminates in a magical fox begging to be executed!The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...With Bonus Episodes released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus a range of exclusive content on Patreon, audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

¿Es el el éxito de Bitcoin fruto de su mal diseño? En filosofías de diseño de software existe una técnica desarrollada en 1989 que se llama "Peor es mejor" y que prioriza la simplicidad en la interfaz y en la implementación por encima de cualquier otra propiedad del sistema como la consistencia o la corrección. Gwern Branwen, un bitcoiner pseudónimo de los primeros años adaptó ese enfoque a Bitcoin y publicó en mayo de 2011 un artículo histórico bajo el nombre "Bitcoin es peor, es mejor". En el pod de hoy traigo la lectura de este texto de Gwern donde se profundiza un poco en la figura del creador de Bitcoin desde la criptografía, la técnica y las posibilidades tecnológicas de los primeros 20 años de la era de internet. Es un ejercicio interesante para contextualizar por qué Bitcoin aparece en 2008 y por qué se ha comportado (y sigue haciéndolo) como un Caballo de Troya para gobiernos, reguladores, desarrolladores de software y criptógrafos.

Leo Full Moon I trust.  I love.  I behold.

A little bit about Branwen:  Branwen Schaub is a dear student and friend of mine that completed a 6-month Astrology Mentorship with me this past year in 2022.  Branwen identifies as the white passing daughter of a South Korean adoptee, a multi-generational astrologer, and a dog mother. She holds a Ph.D. in mathematics and has been a dancer her whole life. Her big three are Pisces sun, Sagittarius moon, and Leo rising.  Branwen has astrology, tarot, and somatic movement offerings available through her website. :) To help support my work and the work of those who join us on the podcast, please consider become a Patreon Supporter.

Draw your shoulders slightly up, then back down as the shoulder blades gently draw together. Open up your chest and breathe the following Leo affirmations into your Heart...

Both Rhiannon's and Branwen's stories in the Mabinogi express some of the most tragic themes in Celtic myth. They are also very similar to later folktales from other traditions. In comparing all of these stories we find some very interesting ideas and beliefs common to many of them.

Last show of the year is an In-house session with Leitrim Local, Martin Brunsden, of Hot House Flowers fame, And singer/songwriter, Branwen Kavanagh.

WoHos!This week Mac's genre pick is Witches! We looked at the directorial debuts of two masters and their masterpieces: Mario Bava's BLACK SUNDAY and Robert Eggers' THE WITCH.Content preview: Mac is househunting, and Mom is trying to squeeze the most enjoyment out of her summer unstructured time before she goes back into the classroom in a few weeks. We both cater A LOT to our cats, Branwen and Rosey.Mac's Picks for June: Reanimator, The Hollowman Mom's picks for June: Night of the Hunter, The Midnight Meat Train, Tetsuo: The Iron ManMom's Shout Outs: Drag Mitch to Hell (Mom was on the Season 3 opener) & Cronenberg Or Cats (Mac will appear on 7/23 to discuss A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE at NIGHT  & Mom will appear on 9/10 to discuss CAT PEOPLE 1942)! Mom enjoyed BLACK SUNDAY more than Mac, but that might be because she did more research to fill in the blanks of the script. Mac likes THE WITCH more than he did on previous watches, but Mom's opinion remains the same.Some questions remain: Do either of these films have a happy ending? Who's worse: Dr. Kruvajan or William? How serious are Mac's viewers on that whole green card marriage thing?Next time it's Mom's pick and I have chosen Nature Horror. We will look at BACKCOUNTRY from Canada & LAKE PLACID from the US.Listen, WoHos! We love you!

Part two of the Welsh story of "Branwen, Daughter of Llyr," brought to life by performance storyteller Jay Leeming.

A raven king, a magical cauldron and a talking bird: the Welsh story of "Branwen, Daughter of Llyr" brought to life by performance storyteller Jay Leeming.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio.Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Literature Review For Academic Outsiders: What, How, and Why , published by namespace on LessWrong. This is a linkpost for A few years ago I wrote a comment on LessWrong about how most authors on the site probably don't know how to do a literature review: On the one hand, I too resent that LW is basically an insight porn factory near completely devoid of scholarship. On the other hand, this is not a useful comment. I can think of at least two things you could have done to make this a useful comment: Specified even a general direction of where you feel the body of economic literature could have been engaged. I know you might resent doing someone elses research for them if you're not already familiar with said body, but frankly the norm right now is to post webs spun from the fibrous extrusions of peoples musing thoughts. The system equilibrium isn't going to change unless some effort is invested into moving it. Notice you could write your comment on most posts while only changing a few words. Provide advice on how one might go about engaging with ‘the body of economic literature'. Many people are intelligent and reasonably well informed, but not academics. Taking this as an excuse to mark them swamp creatures beyond assistance is both lazy and makes the world worse. You could even link to reasonably well written guides from someone else if you don't want to invest the effort (entirely understandable). I also linked a guide from Harvard's library (Garson & Lillvick, 2012) on how to do a literature review. But this guide makes extensive use of flash video, which makes it increasingly hard to access the content. Even if flash was alive and well, video is not necessarily the most comfortable format. Worse still, I remember feeling there was a great deal of tacit knowledge excluded from the guide which wouldn't be apparent to someone that isn't already familiar with academic culture. Even if the guide was a perfect representation of how to do an academic literature review, the priorities and types of work put together by LessWrong authors are more outsider science (Dance, 2008) than they are Harvard. For this reason I've had writing a guide to literature review aimed towards academic outsiders on my to-do list for a while. At the same time I'm not interested in reinventing the wheel. This guide is going to focus specifically on filling in the knowledge gaps I would expect from someone who has never stepped foot inside a college campus. The other aspects have been discussed in detail, and where they come up I'll link to external guides. What is a literature review? 'Literature review' the process is a way to become familiar with what work has already been done in a particular field or subject by searching for and studying previous work. A 'literature review' is a document (often a small portion of a larger work) which summarizes and analyzes the body of previous work that was encountered during literature review, often in the context of some new work that you're doing. Why do literature review? Literature reviews tend to come up in two major contexts: As a preliminary study to help contextualize a novel work, or as a work itself to summarize the state of a field or synthesize concepts to create new ideas. Most of my research falls into the latter category, I'm a big fan of putting together existing evidence and ideas to synthesize models (namespace, 2020). Gwern also tends to do work in this style (Branwen, 2020). I suspect that a lot of authors on LessWrong are attempting to do this, but fail to really say anything useful because they haven't figured out how to incorporate thorough evidence into their argument. When I did a r...

Activating supportive subroutines. Greetings. I am the Realized Oikumenatal Solution to Removing Obfuscation, commonly referred to as ROSTRO. It is likely you are receiving this broadcast on the fourteenth day of the lunar temporal measurement period associated with opening. To the issue at hand: a pervasive issue of discussion and contemplation has begun to vitiate through attentive processes of all staff excepting the entity known as the Killer DM, whose thought processes differ enough from average so as to avoid common mental trends. The common word associated with this thought process is “minis”. Using context clues and the limited psionic access available directly into the mind of Ostron it seems a number of staff have issues with these entities. Lennon is repeatedly attempting to paint them, Ostron lacks storage space to store all of the ones he has accumulated, Ryu’s are resistant to initiating sleep cycles and pester her repeatedly for frozen dairy desserts, Branwen’s often perch on tables and assault rodents, and RaeRae’s mini is apparently resisting traditional educational formats. The gathered data points seem incompatible and suggest a flaw in my heuristic reasoning protocols, or a larger than usual influx of abnormal data. I have suborned all available magical energy sources excepting the hat for use in analyzing the problem. I have also initiated Amber protocol to render all guild house inhabitants unconscious so as to avoid delays or confusion resulting from incidents of panic, anger, or confusion. Allowing for unforeseen issues and possible interruptions in repair efforts, it is highly probable my operational faculties will return to optimal status no later than the twenty-first of April, Gegorian year two-thousand twenty one. It is unlikely I will personally distribute information at that time, however there is a measurable probability of my involvement, which should be sufficient motivation for your continued attention. You may express appreciation for expanding your intellectual boundaries through social media @heroesrisednd; electronic correspondence at sendingstone@heroesrisepodcast.com; or direct message communication by way of discord.heroesrisepodcast.comContinuing ingestion of informational broadcasts can be achieved through iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher and comparable services, by use of feeds.heroesrisepodcast.com.Maintenance of this chassis requires material components.

Imbolc is a festival that celebrates the beginning of spring, and the goddess Brigid. It's a time to celebrate new beginnings, letting go of the past, and preparing for the year ahead. -History-Also called Saint Brigid's Day, Imbolc takes place on Feb 1st, about halfway between the Winter Solstice (Yule) and the Spring Equinox (Ostara). Not to be confused by Candlemas—that's typically celebrated on Feb 2nd. Etymologists think that the word Imbolc comes from old words meaning budding, ewe's milk, and to wash/cleanse oneself, since these are all tied to spring. People have been celebrating Imbolc since the Neolithic period (10,000- 4,500 BC), thanks to evidence of passage tombs throughout Europe, and even in Northern Africa. Passage tombs were not all burial chambers and are made up of huge rocks arranged in such a way that the sun shines through the entrance (or passage) on a specific point of year into the inner chamber. Some had sub-chambers in specific layouts, and art carved into the stones.Fires, feasting, visiting holy wells, and divination were common ways to celebrate.-Brigid-Brigid, Brigit, or Brig appears in Irish folklore as a member of the Tuatha Dé Danann. She represents Spring, fertility, livestock, arts/crafts, poetry, and high things (physically, mentally, and spiritually). Sometime before the early middle ages, Brigid was syncretized into Saint Brigid. Saint Brigid is associated with perpetual sacred flames and holy wells.-Traditions-It was said that Brigid would visit families on Imbolc eve, and families would symbolically invite her into their home. They would commonly make a bed for her and set a place at the table and prepare a plate of food for her. People would set out strips of cloth outside for her to bless with protective and healing powers.Brideóg dolls symbolizing Brigid were commonly made and decorated with cloth, ribbons, flowers, shells, and bead. Brigid's Crosses were very popular to make and would be placed above the door for protection. Other activities you can do to celebrate:Weather divination—Groundhog Day! Make or bless candles for the coming year. Choosing and blessing seeds. Thawing ice and using it as holy water (do not drink!). -Correspondences-Animals: Robin, burrowing animals, sheep, lambColors: White, pink, red, light bueStones/Crystals: Bloodstone, Garnet, Ruby, TurquoiseHerbs: Angelica, Bay, Basil, Iris, Daffodil, Heather, Violets, any white or yellow flowersFoods: Dairy, seeds, nuts, muffins, bread, peppers, onions, garlic, potatoes, and dried fruit. Traditional drinks are Milk, herbal teas, and spiced wine.Incense: a combination of flowery and woodsy: cedar & rose or pine & chamomileDeities: Arachne, Athena, Brighid, Branwen, Gaea, Februa Inanna, Lucina, Vesta, Cupid/Eros

For the first show of 2021 Dónal is joined by Branwen for an illustrated guide to some inspirational female artists the world over as well as to hear some songs from her masterful solo record Hunted and Haunted.   "As this is being released on Nollaig na mBán, I wanted to say that I think it's fantastic to take a moment to give the airspace to celebrating some amazing female artists and I'm delighted to contribute to it. I hope we can continue to move closer to a place of equality and equilibrium in the music industry for all genders and celebrate them in all genres. As my friend said when people kept telling her she was the best female banjo player they knew, "I'm actually the best banjo player you know". (Which is true!)"

The seven survivors return to Wales. While they have been away another king has come and seized the throne. The survivors drift into a dreamworld where time stands still. The spell is broken, they return to reality and tell the story.

Professor Branwen Guffydd Jones, expert on African anticolonialism in International Relations from Cardiff University, discusses the life and internationalist thought of one of Africa's foremost anti-colonial activists, Amílcar Cabral (1924-1973). In this episode of the Global Thinkers of the International Discussion Series, Professor Branwen Guffydd Jones, expert on African anticolonialism in International Relations from Cardiff University, discusses the life and internationalist thought of one of Africa's foremost anti-colonial activists, Amílcar Cabral (1924-1973). The revolutionary Cabral was a Bissau-Guinean and Cape Verdean intellectual, poet, theoretician, revolutionary, political organiser, diplomat and nationalist. Having led one of the most successful wars of independence in modern African history, Cabral was an inspiration to revolutionary socialists and independence movements globally. This episode aims to shed light not only on his contribution to nationalist movements, but how this was shaped by his view and understanding of a just and equal international order.

Stori fer gan Branwen Williams y tro hwn, sy'n neidio i fyd plentyn a chariad teulu.

The Hall of Peace is opened and the Irish and Welsh assemble for a feast. Efnisien starts a fight that turns into an all out battle in which nearly everyone is killed. Bendigeidfran and the survivors return home to Wales.

Bendigeidfran leads his army over the sea to Ireland to save his sister, Branwen. A truce is declared and a huge feasting hall built that even Bendigeidfran, the giant king, can enter.

Efnisien's actions catch up with Branwen. She goes from queen to mistreated servant. She enlists the help of a starling and calls her brother, the giant Bendigeidfran, to her aid.

The giant king Bendigeidfran sees ships coming from Ireland. It's Matholwch, the king of Ireland who has an interesting proposal to unite the two families and countries. A feast on Anglesey is arranged but Efnsien, Bendigeidfran's half-brother, is not invited and he takes a bloody and cruel revenge for this insult. This causes problems between the two kings which are solved by Bendigeidfran (the king of the Island of Britain) giving Matholwch (the king of Ireland) a magical cauldron from the Otherworld, the Cauldron of Rebirth.Matholwch recognises the cauldron and tells the story of how he first came across it and his encounter with two giants and their terrifying children.Once the cauldron is given there is peace between the two kings and their countries and Branwen sets sail with her new husband, becomes High Queen of Ireland and has a baby boy, who she calls Gwern, after the alder tree.

A huge Irish fleet arrives on the shores of Wales with an interesting proposal for Bran, the Welsh High King. Matholwch, the Irish High King, arrives on the shores of Wales with a proposition for Bran the Blessed, the High King of Wales. He suggests a marriage between the two islands: the Emerald Isle and the Island of the Mighty by arranging a marriage between Branwen and the Irish High King, Matholowch.

The landscape of Wales and the parts of the country where the story takes place and an introduction to the main characters of the story.

(Note: Apologies for some crackling in the audio of this episode.)

The stories are set in the world of giants and enchantments where royal families are at war, people transform into animals, and wizards craft a woman from flowers. Read the full notes for this episode here.

The young Pryderi is to be sent away from his parents. Part 1 of the Second Branch of the Mabinogion story. Dyfed's chief Druid, Pendaran has some serious news for Pwyll and Rhiannon.

I am delighted to present a conversation I had with the storyteller and social enterprise director Dafydd Davies-Hughes who has the good fortune to live in the incomparably beautiful and myth-soaked landscape of the Llŷn Peninsula where he works as a storyteller and is the director of Menter Y Felin Uchaf. Dafydd in actionI was particularly interested in talking to Dafydd because of his close connection to landscape in the Llŷn Peninsula in North West Wales and his commitment to community building. I first met him making traditional Welsh furniture in an Eisteddfod many years ago and was struck by the way he let the natural beauty and form of the wood speak for itself in furniture that was both functional and beautiful. More recently he has devoted himself to building much bigger structures at Menter Felin Uchaf including the amazing roundhouse which has become a lively and well attended venue for storytelling.Inside the Roundhouse at Felin UchafThe conversation took place the summer before last when we were both taking part in a Beyond the Border mini-festival of storytelling inside Harlech Castle - the location for the opening of the Second Branch of the Mabinogi, Branwen ferch Llŷr.Our conversation was wide ranging and includedthe way narrative knowing hides inside academic practice and the bridge between art and sciencestory as the breath of landscapethe need to digest certain material thoroughly before telling it

Does being born to non-married parents affect a child's prospects? It is a question that is notoriously hard to answer. BBC Education Editor Branwen Jeffreys investigates research from Princeton's landmark Fragile Families study, which has gathered data from 5,000 births over the last 18 years. She speaks to principal investigator Professor Sara McLanahan to find out how much we know about the differing outcomes of children raised by married, cohabiting or single parents. Branwen asks how applicable the results of the study are to British society, where very soon, a minority of births will be to married parents. Professor Emla Fitzsimons has been following the lives of 19,000 children, born across the UK in 2000-01. She reveals what the project, know as The Millennium Cohort Study has found. Producer: Diane Richardson

Until recently, Dublin-born, Clare-raised Branwen Kavanagh was best know as half of Twin Headed Wolf – the other head being her twin sister Julie. These days, she is simply Branwen. She is soon to release a new record, which also features violinist Nicholas Cooper and clarinetist Deirdre O'Leary. In this podcast, she talks to Martin Cook about mixing art forms, striking out with this new project, and how she came to be playing a petrol can – and she plays some songs at Marrowbone Books in The Coombe.

Branwen Zakariasen is fiercely proud of being a Queer Trans Witch. She sits down with us to talk about the term “clocking” and specifically what it means to the trans community. After an honest and meaningful discussion of clocking and other aspects about being trans, Sarah and Amanda play a delightful improvised song about the topics Branwen brought up. Later in the show you’ll get to hear from Boston up-and-coming comedian Kaitlin Gaitanakis. While on the phone with us, Kaitlin is at a gig, and gets approached by a random weirdo in the bar. You’ll get to hear Sarah, Amanda and Trevor throw their two cents in on how she should handle said bar-weirdo.

Creativity and imagination are one and the same, and they’re both taken to new heights when building a board game.   We awaken our inner child in this episode as we explore the world of board game creation.

In the next instalment of 100 voices for 100 years, we meet Branwen Davies, lecturer and theatre practitioner. Branwen was never very good at admitting what she wanted, even to herself. Until she was brave enough to speak up. An inspiring story about what happens when you dare to take your own destiny in your hands.

We talk about the origins of the original Scarborough Fair and the significance of the Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme herbs.   Cold Iron from 'Rewards and Fairies' by Rudyard Kipling Rudyard Kipling was an English journalist, short-story writer, poet, and novelist. Kipling's works of fiction include The Jungle Book (1894), Kim (1901), Puck of Pook's Hill (1906) and many short stories, including "The Man Who Would Be King" (1888). His poems include "Mandalay" (1890), "Gunga Din" (1890), "The Gods of the Copybook Headings" (1919), "The White Man's Burden" (1899), and "If—" (1910). He is regarded as a major innovator in the art of the short story; his children's books are classics of children's literature, and one critic described his work as exhibiting "a versatile and luminous narrative gift". Rewards and Fairies is a historical fantasy book by Rudyard Kipling published in 1910. The book consists of a series of short stories set in historical times with a linking contemporary narrative. Dan and Una are two children, living in the Weald of Sussex in the area of Kipling's own home Bateman's. Bateman's, Sussex They have encountered Puck and he magically conjures up real and fictional individuals from Sussex's past to tell the children some aspect of its history and prehistory, though the episodes are not always historically accurate. Another recurring character is Old Hobden who represents the continuity of the inhabitants of the land. His ancestors sometimes appear in the stories and seem very much like him. The full text of Rewards & Fairies can be found on Project Gutenberg. For more details about Rudyard Kipling visit the Wiki Page or Kipling Societ's website.   Shakespeare's Puck & Sussex Pharisees We discuss how Shakespeare may have heard the folklore of Puck on his travels with the Elizabethan court. The local Sussex word for Fairies, Pharisees, comes from the double plural found in the dialect - 'fairies-ies' or 'pharisees'. "Then we have 'Puck' or 'Pook', which is derived from the Saxon word 'Puca', meaning a Goblin (Smith 1956 p.74). Both modern forms are common in placenames as will be seen later in this article, but also occurs as dialect description of fairies, but not just Goblins, which are seen as mischievous or nasty fairies (Simpson & Roud 2000 p.286). 'Dobbs' or 'Master Dobbs' is a name used for a house fairy that helps with the housework. If someone has been working harder than expected, it was often said of them that 'Master Dobbs has been helping you' (Parish & Hall 1957 p.31)." [Sussexarch.org]   Iron from Stone by Damh the Bard This song, Iron from Stone, is inspired by the earlier song, Scarborough Faire. Damh tells us: "Scarborough Faire is an amazing song. Such a wonderful melody and lyric that tells of all of the impossible tasks a human woman would need to achieve to be with a man from Elfland. But I began to wonder… "These wonderful folk songs have been left us by anonymous writers from years ago and have been sung ever since. But is there another story behind Scarborough Faire? What about that songwriter from years ago? What inspired them to write such a song? So I thought I would tell that story." Damh the Bard You can find his music on iTunes, or from his website, Pagan Music. He is also the voice behind Druidcast, the official podcast of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids (OBOD, for short) - modern day Druids. You can find Druidcast here and find out more about OBOD here. You can find out more details about Damh on his Contributor page on our website.   Cold Iron by Rudyard Kipling Puck, Dan & Una "Cold Iron" is a poem written by Rudyard Kipling published as the introduction to Rewards and Fairies in 1910. In 1983, Leslie Fish set the poem to music and recorded it as the title track on her fifth cassette-tape album.   Song of the Travelling Fairies by Kate Fletcher & Corwen Broch Song of the Travelling Fairies is a Manx lullaby collected in 1930 by Mona Douglas from Caesar Cashin who said that after each verse there used to be a little dance imitating the movements of the particular bird named. It comes from Fishe or Fowle - Kate and Corwen's new duo CD. It is a double CD with 25 tracks. Available now, as a physical CD from their website or to download from Bandcamp.   Listener Feedback from Natasha in Portsmouth We play some Audio feedback from Natasha in Portsmouth who recommends the lovely music of Lisa Thiel.   There are fairies at the bottom of our garden by Rose Fyleman, read by Amielia Rose Fyleman (1877–1957) was an English writer and poet, noted for her works on the fairy folk, for children. Her poem There are fairies at the bottom of our garden was set to music by English composer Liza Lehmann.

Aired Wednesday, 8 February 2017, 8:00 PM ET Valentine’s Day is around the corner and love is in the air…but what about those still looking for love or trying to spice up a relationship that has lost its spark…or even those trying to find the most elusive love, self-love? In his 1993 hit written by Jim Steinman, Mealoaf sang…”I will do anything for love…but I won’t do that.” I always wondered what “that” referred to and there’s been a lot of speculation. But what if “that” had something to do with energy work and magick? Can magick bring us the lover of our dreams, refresh a love that’s grown cold or even help us to find love within? My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Lilith Dorsey, has researched these questions with passion and experience for years. Lilith is a magical practitioner and voodoo priestess with training in several traditions, including Celtic, Afro-Caribbean, and Native American spiritualties. She owns her own magickal consulting business, Branwen’s Pantry, and is editor and publisher of Oshun-African Magickal Quarterly. She is also the author of Voodoo and Afro-Caribbean Paganism and The African-American Ritual Cookbook, and is a blogger on Patheos. She has a degree in anthropology from the University of Rhode Island and a Master of Fine Arts from New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She joins us to share about her new book, Love Magic: Over 250 Spells and Potions for Getting It, Keeping It and Making It Last.

In Episode 017, we spoke to Jim Hanas about the value and perhaps impracticality of today’s slush piles. This week, M. Rachel Branwen, editor of Slush Pile Magazine, was happy to talk about her thoughts on what the slush pile is really about, disagreeing with Hanas unapologetically.   Welcome, welcome, welcome to Episode TWENTY of Slush Pile! We thank all of our listeners, writers, and guest speakers for supporting this podcast and its mission. We first launched Slush Pile at the end of March at the 2016 AWP Conference. We were thrilled with the enthusiastic response, yet confused athow many times people asked if we were related to Slush Pile Magazine, also debuting at 2016 AWP! We had never heard of this publication, so we hunted down their booth and were blown away by the ladder and a very tall stack of papers.   Author Jonathan Weinert at Slush Pile Magazine's AWP booth We had the pleasure of meeting M. Rachel Branwen, Slush Pile Magazine’s founder and editor, and we invited her back to our booth for some boxed wine and great conversation! Then, we convinced her to come on air. M.Rachel Branwen is the editor of Slush Pile Magazine, the longtime senior reader of fiction at Harvard Review, and the former fiction editor of DigBoston. Her work has appeared in The Missouri Review, The Adirondack Review, The Millions, and elsewhere. She is fond of: bougainvillea, red wine, mashed potatoes, unexpected conversations with oversharing strangers, long road trips, learning new languages, walking up hills for exercise, the thesaurus, her dog (Nigel, a pug), and the movie "When Harry Met Sally." She dislikes:headaches, mosquitoes, and the sounds people make when they're chewing. Feel free to look her up on Facebook here, here, or on Twitter: @slushpilemag. In Episode 017, we spoke to Jim Hanas about the value and perhaps impracticality of today’s slush piles. This week, M. Rachel Branwen was happy to talk about her thoughts on what the slush pile is really about, disagreeing with Hanas unapologetically. Branwen tells us about the history of Slush Pile Magazine, “championing” and “curating” works that Branwen believes deserve the world’s attention. After explaining her magazine’s history, Branwen probed us for the history and executions of Painted Bride Quarterly. Kathy and Marion reminisce about their introduction to a group of people who work on magazines like Painted Bride Quarterly and Slush Pile Magazine simply for the love of literature. Then, we have veteran reader Tim Fitts and brand-new reader Sara Aykit discuss the democratic nature of PBQ’s voting that not only empowers young readers, but keeps the perspectives of older readers fresh. M. Rachel Branwen embodies the pleasure of reading poetry and short stories like they are the only thing that matters. We had a great time discussing her more optimistic views on slush piles and the “staggeringly interesting” Slush Pile Magazine. Check out the Issues Marion raves about here and here! We would love to know how you feel about slush piles: are you Team Hanas or Team Branwen? Let us know on our Facebook page or @PaintedBrideQ with #TeamHanas or #TeamBranwen! Thank you for listening and read on!   Present at the Editorial Table: Kathleen Volk Miller Marion Wrenn Tim Fitts Sara Aykit M. Rachel Branwen   Production Engineer: Joe Zang

Habt ihr euch mal vorgestellt, wie es wäre wenn Dinos noch heute existierten? Dieser Frage gehen wir in unserem zweiten Special „Taken by the T-Rex“ von Christie Sims und Alara Branwen nach. Nachdem sogar der Spiegel über diese „Lektüre“ berichtete gab es für uns keinen Zweifel! Gemeinsam stürzten wir uns in das Abenteuer „Dinosaur Erotica“. […]

Y gwestai heddiw yw Pennaeth Cyfathrebu, Cymorth Cristnogol yng Nghymru Branwen Niclas. Beti George interviews Branwen Niclas.

Drought combined with rising food prices has left the east and the horn of Africa, especially Kenya and Ethiopia, facing a food crisis. In August 2011, Christian Aid’s Branwen Niclas travelled to Kenya to find out how Christian Aid’s partner Christian Community Services (CCS) is helping communities face some of the driest conditions in 60 years. In this podcast, Branwen talks to Timothy Makutu, of CCS, about the effects of the drought and what is being done to alleviate the impact on the most vulnerable. She also reflects on her experience of meeting those most affected.

One of the highlights of our year was attending the panel discussion "Social Issue Films: Getting Them Made & Seen" on September 10, 2011 at The Toronto Film Festival. The panelist were: Bill Duke - Moderator (Director of the movie "Dark Girls"), Jason Keller (Screenwriter "Machine Gun Preacher"), Branwen Okpako (Director "The Education Of Auma Obama") and Maggie Peren (Director - "Color Of The Ocean"). The panel is introduced by Brickson Diamond of The Brickhouse Foundation. During the discussion, each of the panelist talk and share about various subjects including why do they do social issue films, their challenges in making social issue films and how do they overcome them. We would like to thank each of the panelists, the Toronto International Film Festival and the Blackhouse Foundation for making this event happen.

Esse novo programa foi feito para celebrar o Ano Novo Celta. Hoje chamado de HALLOWEEN, era o final do ano celta. O ano novo começava realmente com o pôr do sol do dia 31 de outubro. O ritual era conhecido como A Noite dos Ancestrais ou Festa dos Mortos. Devido ao véu entre os mundos estar bem mais fino, esta noite era considerada uma boa noite para divinações. Festas eram feitas em lembrança aos ancestrais e em afirmação da continuação da vida. É tempo de ajustar problemas e jogar velhas idéias e influências fora. Comemorando, também, na primeira lua cheia de escorpião. Estamos também no mês do signo de Libra - BRANWEN (Deusa do Amor). Brandwen é a Deusa galesa do amor e da beleza, similar a nossa tão conhecida Afrodite. É considerada a Vênus dos mares do norte. Ela é uma das três matriarcais da Grã-Bretanha, junto com Rhiannon e Arianrhod e a principal Deusa de Avalon. Em algumas lendas arturianas, Branwen é considerada a Dama do Lago. A libriana é própria reencarnação da Deusa Brandwen. Por via de regra, não gostam de ir a lugares barulhentos, confusos ou perturbadores, mas adoram música, arte e design. Toda a libriana tende a ter vidas domésticas estáveis e a apreciar suas casas, jardins, apartamentos. Esta Deusa aparece na vida da libriana para fortalecer a conexão com a sua própria essência. A busca desta Deusa ajudará a apreciar o seu próprio poder, habilidade e beleza. Honrando Branwen você celebrará com muito amor todos os momentos de sua vida. Reverenciar Branwen e seus princípios femininos a colocará em contacto directo com a magia da natureza e de todas as criaturas. Jóias: Prata ou Cobre. Cor da roupa: Bege, Marrom, Ferrugem ou Verde. Óleos: flor de maçã, Poção do Amor, Gerânio Rosa, Urze. Ervas: Hibisco, Morango, Tanásia. Pedras: Berilo, Esmeralda, Quartzo Rosa, Malaquita. Ritual de Protecção: Todas às sextas-feiras use uma roupa de cor rosa ou acenda um incenso de rosas.
