I have been reminded over and over again in recent weeks of the preciousness of life as numerous dear friends and family members face loss of loved ones and their own life-altering health crises. This got me to thinking about how much my mentors have shaped my life. So with this latest episode I inaugurate a new Countermelody series entitled “Honor Your Mentors.” I have already posted numerous times on the podcast about my beloved teacher John Wustman. This coming July my friend and colleague Chanda VanderHart's monumental book Accompaniment in America: Contextualizing Collaborative Piano, co-authored with Kathleen Kelly and Elvia Puccinelli, will be published by Routledge. Chanda has put together an astonishing digital archive featuring a wealth of material related to the book: https://accompanimentinamerica.website/index.html Included in this material is an interview I did with Chanda about Mr. Wustman. Chanda has given me permission to include that interview on my podcast. This is supplemented by a sampling of (mostly) studio recordings of John featuring, among others, Régine Crespin, Carlo Bergonzi, Brigitte Fassbaender, Luciano Pavarotti, and Irina Arkhipova: truly an astonishing feast for the ears! Additionally, I was enormously saddened last week to read of the death of Joan Caplan, my first serious voice teacher in New York, and a phenomenal singer in her own right. Joan also remained a close friend through the years. In recent years she had been living at the Actors Fund Home in Englewood, New Jersey. I was able to visit her there last summer and had intended to go see her again later this month. Alas, that can no longer happen, but I will also be featuring Joan in an upcoming episode in the “Honor Your Mentors” series. In her memory today, I present her in a scintillating recording of Orsini's Brindisi from Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia. Finally, though I'm sure no one needs to be reminded of this, please, my dears, tell all those you love how much they mean to you; don't wait until their funerals to give them their flowers! Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Hanno appena 22 anni, ma Gabriele Procida e Matteo Spagnolo giocano già nella nazionale italiana di pallacanestro, sono stati selezionati per la NBA, il campionato americano di basket, e, soprattutto, da due anni sono compagni di squadra nell'Alba Berlin, lo storico club della capitale tedesca. Coi due giovani cestisti, uno originario di Brindisi e l'altro di Como, abbiamo parlato di pallacanestro ma anche della loro vita da italiani a Berlino e dei loro sogni per il futuro. Von Francesco Marzano.

Be Bold & Do the Works Jesus Did!John 14:12-13 “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”This is one of my favorite verses in the Bible.  it is one that I read, and when I heard it, I immediately believed it.  Some verses are like this in the Bible.  When you read the Bible, some things are easy to take in, and others are difficult.  These easy and difficult things are different for everyone.  We all have different experiences when we read the Bible because we have all had different experiences throughout our lives.  There is a quote by Steven R. Covey that I really like.  Steven R. Covey said, “We see the world, not as it is, but as we are.”  This is true for the Bible as well.  We look at and interpret the things we read in the Bible with our own unique lens.  For instance, if we had people letting us down our whole lives, we may read the parts of the Bible that talk about trust and struggle to believe we can trust God because we haven't been able to trust anyone on earth.  If we have grown up in a very unloving environment, we may struggle with the parts of the Bible that talk about unconditional love. Other things may come easier to us.  For me, I instantly loved this verse.  I know the Bible is God's Word and that God chose His words very carefully.  Sometimes, when we are reading the Bible, there may be a question in our minds about why they used this word vs. that word.  One thing I have learned from doing Bible studies is that there is always a reason why certain words were chosen.  Also, if you have done Bible studies, you have had the benefit of hearing all about the original Greek or Hebrew words that were used in the original translation and what those words meant.  Sometimes, when translated, we don't have an exact word to mean what they were saying. I find Bible studies fascinating because you gain so much more insight into what the verses are really saying.  Anyway, back to the verse.  I heard this verse or read this verse, and I believed Jesus' word to us.  I have never really been one to struggle with trust.  I grew up in a loving family; I had great friends growing up, I am blessed to be able to say I was not let down by those I know and cared about often growing up.  Therefore, I trust them pretty easily.But what if you don't trust easily?  What if you look at that verse and say there is no way we could perform the works Jesus did? Jesus was God; of course, He performed miracles.  Also, the apostles were right there with Him for 3 years during His ministry. Of course, they could do miracles too.  We can all usually agree that Jesus did miracles when He walked the earth, and we can also usually agree that the apostles were sent out, and they performed miracles, too.  We run into trouble by trying to believe we can do signs and wonders in today's world.  Who are we?  We are not holy enough; we are not worthy of that power and authority.  I agree with both of those statements and yet Jesus still says we will do the works that He did and even greater works than He did. How is this possible?It is possible through the Holy Spirit.  Did you ever realize or notice that no single miracle was recorded in the Gospels before Jesus was baptized?  Jesus was fully human and fully God the entire time He walked the earth.  There was nothing stopping Jesus from performing miracles during the first 30 years of His life.  However, He chose to wait until after He was baptized and received the Holy Spirit to start performing miracles.  This is something I recently found out and found fascinating.  It was unsurprising to me that Jesus did miracles in the Bible; he is God, after all.  I didn't know that Jesus didn't use his divinity to perform miracles.  He used the Holy Spirit, working through Him to perform the miracles.  He chose to put his divinity aside and act from his human nature, with the help of the Holy Spirit, because it would be greater glory for God.  St. Lawrence of Brindisi explains it like this:"Christ came into the world to do battle against Satan, to do away with idolatry, and to turn the world to faith and piety and the worship of the true God.  He could have accomplished this by using the weapons of his might and coming as he will come to judge, in glory and majesty… But in order that his victory might be the more glorious, he willed to fight Satan in our weak flesh. It is as if an unarmed man, right-hand bound, were to fight with his left hand alone against a powerful enemy; if he emerged victorious, his victory would be regarded as all the more glorious. So Christ conquered Satan with the right hand of his divinity bound, and used against him only the left hand of his weak humanity.”Is this new to you, too?  Did you know that God performed these miracles and defeated satan without using his divinity?  He relied on the power of the Holy Spirit working through Him.  Do you know why this changes everything?  It changes everything because Jesus also gave us the Holy Spirit to dwell within us.  If you are baptized, then you will have the Holy Spirit living inside of you.  If you have the Holy Spirit living inside of you, then you have the power to defeat Satan and to perform works as Jesus did.  Another one of my favorite verses is Romans 8:11: “ The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you…” I wish we all knew how much power we actually have inside our frail human bodies.This verse can be scary to many people.  Wait, if I can perform works like Jesus did, does that mean I have to travel worldwide and be a missionary like the disciples were?  No, you don't have to travel anywhere if you don't feel called to do that.  They talked about ministering to your sphere of influence in my class.  You can start small.  Be an example to your family, your friends, and your co-workers.  Let's read the verse again, “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”If you could believe and adopt this verse as your own personal truth, how much greater would your life be?  How great would it be to do works like Jesus did?  How great would it be to be able to heal a loved one?  Did you know there are people doing this every day?  Did you know there are lots of people who have read this verse, decided to believe it, and are now living out a supernatural lifestyle with the power of the Holy Spirit?  The last line of the verse says, “If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”  How awesome of a promise is that?  God has so much more for us, and we aren't asking for it.  We aren't going to God to ask Him what He has for us.  Why are we choosing to live a normal life when God is offering us a supernatural one of signs and wonders?  You might be thinking, that is great for you, Catherine.  I am glad you believe this verse, and you want that life, but I am happy with mine as is.  If this is what you are thinking, I challenge you over this next week or so to bring this to prayer.  I challenge you to be brave enough to talk to God about it.  Tell Him how you feel about this verse and ask Him if He has anything to say to you about it.  When we do signs and wonders, we build up people's faith.  Don't you think this world needs some faith-building right now?  Look at the day of Pentecost; 3,000 were baptized on that day.  I know this verse can be scary.  I know the thought of us healing or performing miracles is strange to most of us.  I know it is way outside of our comfort zone.  I also know God is calling us all to it.  I also know that this world needs people willing to step outside their comfort zone.  God needs people who will step out in faith, knowing they have the Holy Spirit inside them and that He will guide them.  If this verse is something that you struggle with, write it down and look at it often over the next month.  Bring it to God and ask Him to show you how this applies to your life.  Ask God what He wants you to do with this verse.  Be brave and bold. If you ask the Holy Spirit for help, He will help you.  Just start small.  Step out in faith and ask a loved one if they want you to pray for them.  If you spend time with God, He will guide you on this journey.  He will lead you to where you need to go.  We must be brave enough to say three small words, “Use me, Lord.”  Can you be brave enough to say those words?  Can we be Christ's hands and feet here on earth?  Remember, we have a good, good Father.  He is going to ease you into this lifestyle.  He will meet you where you are and build your faith along the way.  Trust Him and give Him permission to work in your life; give Him permission to use you, and He will.  Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today.  Lord, we ask you to send your angels to prepare the way for everyone listening to hear this message today.  We pray you give us the courage to believe this verse and to step out in faith, knowing you have given us the power of the Holy Spirit to help us do your work here on earth.  Lord, the world needs you more than ever, and if we can bring you to others, please show us how.  Show us what you want each of us to do.  Reveal to us what this verse means for each of us in our lives.  We love you, Lord; you are incredible.  We are so grateful you gave us the Holy Spirit.  Lord, you are the almighty one, the king of kings and the Lord of Lords.  You are the light of the world.  We ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name. Amen!Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.  I look forward to spending time with you again tomorrow.  Remember, Jesus loves you, and so do I.  Have a blessed weekend!Today's Word from the Lord was received in September 2024 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group. If you have any questions about the prayer group, these words, or how to join us for a meeting, please email CatholicCharismaticPrayerGroup@gmail.com. Today's Word from the Lord is, “When I told you to walk the extra mile with the soldiers, their sacred duty was to only have a person walk a mile. If you walk another mile, they don't know what to do. It throws them off their game. Respond in love, and they will not know what to do, except understand where my word is coming and the special gifts that I have given to you.” www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

La Xylella Phastidiosa è un parassita che che fa rinsecchire gli ulivi trasformandone i tronchi in un ammasso di legna avvizzita.  Secondo le stime del settore, circa la metà del raccolto di olive degli ultimi anni è andato perduto per sempre a causa proprio di questa infezione. Fermarne la diffusione è quindi un imperativo del nostro tempo, e l'Unione Europea ci sta già provando in molti modi. Uno di questi è il finanziamento al progetto che vi raccontiamo oggi: il progetto REDOX. La sua ambizione è vedere dal cielo quello che da terra, da pochi centimetri di distanza, non è possibile vedere.  Ne abbiamo parlato con Manuela Matarrese, Responsabile del progetto nel Distretto Tecnologico Aerospaziale di Brindisi.

MILANO (ITALPRESS) - "Gli argomenti ce li regalano la cronaca e l'attualità. Noi siamo attenti a quello che accade e a quello che ci arriva come richieste da parte del pubblico dagli ascolti della settimana precedente, e così prepariamo la scaletta. Ogni programma si rivolge a una fascia di pubblico a seconda dell'ora, ci sono diversi parametri, ma qualsiasi programma deve incontrare le esigenze di chi è a casa, è il telespettatore che comanda sempre". Lo ha detto Giuseppe Brindisi, giornalista e conduttore di Zona Bianca su Rete 4, intervistato da Marco Klinger, per Medicina Top, format tv dell'agenzia di stampa Italpress: "A volte mi accorgo che la serata funziona, a volte penso di aver fatto una puntata perfetta e invece gli ascolti non hanno premiato come avremmo voluto - ha spiegato - Ma dipende da diversi fattori, da come sei stato bravo a preparare la puntata, se hai scelto gli argomenti giusti... Devi capire a chi ti stai rivolgendo in quel momento, devi parlare ai telespettatori. L'informazione arriva e determina il successo o meno della trasmissione se riesci a parlare lo stesso linguaggio degli spettatori". fsc/gsl

CATANIA (ITALPRESS) - L'operazione Taken Down, condotta dalla Polizia Postale di Catania e dalle forze di Polizia straniere, su disposizione della Procura etnea, è stata definita dal procuratore di Catania, Francesco Curcio, "unica nel suo genere" per la scoperta di una parte dell'organizzazione criminale che aveva le sue basi in Italia e in Olanda. I profitti sono stati calcolati in circa 3 miliardi di euro annui per un danno di circa 10 miliardi di euro di danni ai provider. I server sono stati sequestrati anche a Hong Kong e in Romania. "Un'operazione complessa - sottolinea il procuratore Curcio - perché bisognava ricostruire attraverso un'indagine cibernetica, telematica e informatica tutti i vari passaggi. Quindi come gli indagati siano riusciti a inserirsi nei sistemi protetti dei vari provider televisivi e di come abbiano stoccato i dati che venivano illecitamente 'piratati' e come venivano distribuiti nel territorio con un'organizzazione piramidale. Parallelamente si è ricostruito un flusso di denaro che accompagnava questa attività, perché parliamo di decine di milioni di utenti che pagavano ciascuno un abbonamento di 10 euro al mese, quindi risparmiando un bel pò di soldini rispetto a utenti onesti che si rivolgono alle persone per bene".

A saltare in aria è una corazzata policalibro ancorata in rada, la "Benedetto Brin", che in meno di un'ora affonda portando con sé oltre metà dell'equipaggio. Sulle dinamiche della tragedia si dibatterà per anni, tra la tesi di un accidentale impatto con una mina sino alla teoria del complotto riguardante il presunto sabotaggio da parte di spie austriache o di traditori italiani al soldo di Vienna. La triste realtà verrà a galla solo molti anni dopo con una tragica ammissione di colpa da parte della stessa Marina. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Gianluigi Cosi"Hanno vinto i bambini"“Hanno vinto i bambini” di Gianluigi Cosi filastrocche e canzoni d'autore con le illustrazioni di Enzo De Giorgi.Le filastrocche di Gianluigi affrontano tanti argomenti: dalla sostenibilità ambientale con “Difendiamo la terra”, alla sensibilità dei bambini con “I bambini sentono tutto”, alla mamma con “Chiamo la mamma”, al rapporto nonno-nipote, alla sicurezza stradale, al riciclo e tanto altro; sono tutte dense di insegnamenti, fortemente educative, veicolo principale della parola verso la comprensione della realtà.Scrive Mavi Ferramosca nella prefazione: «L'autore ci accompagna nell'ultima sezione con delle canzoni ad una familiarità con la rima, conducendo il lettore a comprendere che conta sia la parola che la metrica ed insieme permettono di “giocare divertendosi”.Il ritmo è presente in noi, nel nostro corpo, da quando siamo nel ventre materno attraverso il respiro e il battito del cuore quindi la nostra propensione al ritmo è innata.Gianluigi Cosi permette al lettore di “cantare senza musica”, come diceva Pessoa, attraverso filastrocche non sempre musicate e di cantare con la musica ascoltando e leggendo le canzoni. L'autore esprime pensieri ed emozioni mettendo musica nelle parole, come nella canzone “I bambini di Kiev” sulle vicende della guerra russo-ucraina ovvero in “Ninna nanna silenziosa”.Giocare con le parole per i bambini è di fondamentale importanza nello sviluppo di abilità collegate all'uso creativo della lingua, fa leva su quella che viene definita “lucidità innata del bambino” secondo Ardissino.Le filastrocche e le rime sono finestre verso la creatività, possono risvegliare quello che secondo Guilford è il pensiero divergente.Lo stesso Gianni Rodari che l'autore nomina nella dedica iniziale credeva nel valore formativo della poesia per la mente infantile, per la sensibilità dei bambini e per la loro iniziazione letteraria.» Gianluigi Cosi è nato a Brindisi, il 24 marzo 1976, dove attualmente vive e lavora.Cantautore e scrittore scrive canzoni e ha partecipato a vari concorsi canori. E' fondatore de “I Rinoplastici” una tribute band dedicata a Rino Gaetano. Inoltre, porta in giro con la sua fedele chitarra, uno spettacolo dal titolo “Ci vuole un fiore” cantando Endrigo e leggendo Rodari che considera suo maestro ispiratore.Con Il Raggio Verde ha pubblicato “Betta Caretta”, “Camilla Clorofilla e il bosco che brilla”, “Iole Girasole e i prati in fiore”, e la raccolta di poesie “Nessuno bacia Biancaneve”. IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Tutto inizia l'8 settembre del 1943, con le truppe italiane lasciate allo sbando dall'armistizio sottoscritto con gli anglo-americani dal governo del re: un re che lascia Roma e se ne va al sud, a Brindisi, di fatto sotto la protezione degli ex-nemici e non ci fa una gran figura. I nazisti, nel dubbio, rastrellano tutti i militari italiani e offrono loro l'atroce alternativa: combattete con noi o vi deportiamo in campo di concentramento. Più di 600.000 rifiutano: per molti motivi, ma in fondo perché gli italiani sanno essere dei bastian contrari, proprio come Giovanni Guareschi, che dirà di sé: “non sono un indipendente, bensì un anarchico, un uomo libero ma sovversivo”.

Series: Guard the TreasureTitle: How to Keep the Faith in Uncertain TimesScripture: 2 Timothy 1:1-18 NIVBottom line: We keep the faith in uncertain times by standing tall, suffering well, following the pattern of sound teaching, and guarding the deposit together. INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER OUTLINESDISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDINTRODUCTION“There was no doubt that Timothy could do this. He was a prime candidate because, in Oswald Chambers's words again, ‘All through history God has chosen and used nobodies, because their unusual dependence on him made possible the unique display of his power and grace. He chose and used somebodies only when they renounced dependence on their natural abilities and resources.'God is looking for a few good "nobodies" —people who know they cannot succeed in serving him in their own strength.” -Hughes, P. 195CONTEXTSerious uncertainties exist:Timothy's struggles in Ephesus continueNow Paul is imprisoned with execution imminentFeels like the future of the Church hangs in the balanceWe live in uncertain times as well:Threat of WW III (Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, Sudan, Nigeria)Threat of Enemy attack on US (EMP, power grid, southern border, bio warfare, terrorism)Threat of civil war over the culture war (Blue vs Red states)Threat of corrupt leaders at the highest levelsThreat of the basics (college; jobs; retirement; healthcare; inflation; energy indedependence)SERMON In light of these uncertain times, we can keep the faith despite the fears if we'll embrace Paul's 4 commands to Timothy also living in uncertain times. These 4 commands include:Stand tall. (“Don't be ashamed”)Suffer with me.Follow the Pattern of Sound teaching.Guard the Deposit.Paul believes in the power of the Gospel made possible by grace through faith in the power of the Holy Spirit. We must depend on Him. We embrace being a nobody by depending on Christ alone. If we're a somebody, we must do the same or lose the faith. CONCLUSION“As a young preacher from Zimbabwe so memorably expressed it:‘I'm part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have the Holy Spirit's power.The die has been cast. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made; I'm a disciple of His! I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still...I won't give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, paid up, and preached up for the cause of Christ. I am a disciple of Jesus.'” -Hughes, p. 194Bottom line: We keep the faith in uncertain times by standing tall, suffering well, following the pattern of sound teaching, and guarding the deposit together. What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.PrayNOTES“This was not something Timothy was to work out for himself or was entitled to enlarge. It was divine revelation committed to his care.? In the fifth century St. Leo gave Timothy's charge classic expression:What is meant by the deposit? That which is committed to you, not that which is invented by you; that which you have received, not that which you have devised; a thing not of wit, but of learning; not of private assumption, but of public tradition; a thing brought to you, not brought forth of you; wherein you must not be an author, but a keeper; not a leader but a follower. Keep the deposit.”1 Tim, p. 176Kent HughesOther imagesMamertine dungeonNot ashamedGuard the gospel/depositDepositPowerLoveSelf-discipline FlameGiftTearsGrandmotherMotherPrisonHoly SpiritTo Claude.ai I wrote, “We know that in 2 Timothy of the New Testament Paul called for Timothy to come to him in Rome. About how long would that trip have taken?”It replied:The journey from Timothy's location (likely Ephesus or somewhere in Asia Minor) to Rome during the time of Paul and the early church would have been quite arduous and time-consuming. Here's an estimate of how long it may have taken:- The total distance from Ephesus to Rome was around 1,500-1,600 miles (2,400-2,600 km).- Travel in ancient times was done mostly by walking, riding animals like horses/donkeys, or sailing by ship when possible.- Land travel speeds averaged around 15-20 miles per day on foot or by animal.- Sea travel by ship could cover 50-100 miles per day depending on winds and currents.So if Timothy traveled only by land, walking and riding animals, the journey would have taken around 3-4 months to reach Rome from Asia Minor, covering 15-20 miles per day.However, it's more likely he combined land and sea travel, which could significantly reduce the time:- A ship from Ephesus across the Aegean Sea to Athens was around 5-7 days.- From Athens overland to the port of Brindisi in Italy was around 2 weeks.- A ship from Brindisi up the Italian peninsula to Rome was 5-7 more days.Using this combined route, the total journey could have taken around 1-1.5 months with favorable winds and no delays. Of course, bad weather, shipwrecks, or other issues could have extended this considerably in ancient travel conditions.So in summary, Paul summoning Timothy from Asia Minor to Rome would likely have required at least 1-2 months of very difficult travel in the 1st century AD.QUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWho is God?What has he done/is he doing/is he going to do?Who am I?

Seppure sia uno dei materiali più diffusi nella crosta terrestre e si trovi ovunque, la raffinazione del silicio è in gran parte concentrata in Cina e comunque fuori dai confini dell’UE che, non a caso, lo annovera tra le materie prime strategiche. In questo contesto il riciclo dei pannelli fotovoltaici può assumere un ruolo molto importante, perché questi ultimi sono una fonte di silicio già molto puro, adatto per applicazioni evolute. Ed è proprio su questa base che l’ENEA ha messo a punto un processo a basso impatto ambientale, per recuperare il silicio da pannelli fotovoltaici a fine vita e trasformarlo in un nano-materiale innovativo, utile per lo sviluppo delle cosiddette batterie litio-silicio. Ce ne parla Maria Lucia Protopapa, Ricercatrice del Laboratorio Materiali Funzionali e Tecnologie per Applicazioni Sostenibili del Centro Ricerche ENEA di Brindisi.

It all made sense.Phileas Fogg was a respectable gentleman, and he, Inspector Fix, wanted to get there ward for catching him.He soon discovered that Phileas Fogg was on the Mongolia, a ship that sailed from Brindisi, in Italy, to Bombay, in India.Our detective decided to look carefully at all the people getting on and off the Mongolia.On Wednesday, 9 October, Inspector Fix saw Phileas Fogg and his manservant as they arrived in the Suez Canal.'So,there's our thief.' he whispered. 'All I need to do now is to tell Scotland Yard and wait for a warrant for his arrest, and then the reward is mine.'Fix decided to speak to Fogg's manservant.'Egypt is a beautiful country,' began the Inspector.'Yes,that's true, but we are travelling so quickly,' replied Passepartout.'Why are you travelling so quickly? Surely you can't see Egypt in only a few days.''My master wants to travel around the world in eighty days.' he said, looking at the detective's confused face. 'I know, it's complete madness.'"Well,your master is... an unusual man, but I imagine he must be very rich to try to do a journey like that in such a short time.''To tell you the truth, he has the money he needs. But... I really must leave. We have a boat to catch. Good day, Mr...?''Fix,my name is Ins.., Mr. Fix. And I believe that we are possibly going the same way. Are you also going to Bombay?''Yes,we are. Sorry, not to introduce myself. My name's Jean Passepartout. I'm sure we'll see each other again.'Passepartout touched his hat and waved goodbye.His conversation with Passepartout made Inspector Fix feel even more certain that Phileas Fogg was the thief.'I must stop him,' he thought.But how? Without the warrant for his arrest it was impossible, and he could escape again.He was worried.Phileas Fogg, on the other hand, was carefully planning his journey.He kept detailed notes of the date, the length of each part of the journey, the time and the places they stopped in.On 10 October, the ship left Suez for the next stop -Bombay.The sea was rough, but Phileas Fogg was not worried and soon found people on theship to play cards with.On 20 October, they arrived in Bombay.Phileas Fogg and his manservant left the ship and went to the station to catch the train to Calcutta.On their way there Passepartout began to think about his master's bet.He felt worried.Yes,it was true, they were two days early, but anything could still happen.The train left Bombay on time.Three days later, the train stopped at a small village.Passepartout heard the train driver shout, 'Everyone must get off. The railway line ends here!'The railway line from Bombay to Calcutta was not yet finished.The passengers had to travel to the next station, Allahabad,on their own.People who often traveled between the two towns were quick to find a way to continue their journey.Among the different types of transport, there were little carts pulled by cows and ponies, and rickshaws pulled by bicycles or the men from the village.Passepartou twas worried about how to get to the next station, but Phileas Fogg immediately found a man with an elephant and after a short discussion, the man sold him the elephant for a very high price, and the two travelers were soon on their way to the next station with a guide and the elephant, called Kiouni.At about nine o'clock that night, our adventurers came to a big forest of palm trees where they had to stop to let Kiouni rest and eat the leaves from the trees.For a few days they slept in huts in the middle of the jungle.Sometimes they heard the cries of the monkeys and the sound of the tigers.Their journey was going well until the elephant suddenly stopped.

Full Text of ReadingsFriday of the Fifteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 393The Saint of the day is Saint Lawrence of BrindisiSaint Lawrence of Brindisi’s Story At first glance, perhaps the most remarkable quality of Lawrence of Brindisi is his outstanding gift of languages. In addition to a thorough knowledge of his native Italian, he had complete reading and speaking ability in Latin, Hebrew, Greek, German, Bohemian, Spanish, and French. Lawrence was born on July 22, 1559, and died exactly 60 years later on his birthday in 1619. His parents William and Elizabeth Russo gave him the name of Julius Caesar, Caesare in Italian. After the early death of his parents, he was educated by his uncle at the College of St. Mark in Venice. When he was just 16, he entered the Capuchin Franciscan Order in Venice and received the name of Lawrence. He completed his studies of philosophy and theology at the University of Padua and was ordained a priest at 23. With his facility for languages Lawrence was able to study the Bible in its original texts. At the request of Pope Clement VIII, he spent much time preaching to the Jews in Italy. So excellent was his knowledge of Hebrew, the rabbis felt sure he was a Jew who had become a Christian. Lawrence's sensitivity to the needs of people—a character trait perhaps unexpected in such a talented scholar—began to surface. He was elected major superior of the Capuchin Franciscan province of Tuscany at the age of 31. He had the combination of brilliance, human compassion, and administrative skill needed to carry out his duties. In rapid succession he was promoted by his fellow Capuchins and was elected minister general of the Capuchins in 1602. In this position he was responsible for great growth and geographical expansion of the Order. Lawrence was appointed papal emissary and peacemaker, a job which took him to a number of foreign countries. An effort to achieve peace in his native kingdom of Naples took him on a journey to Lisbon to visit the king of Spain. Serious illness in Lisbon took his life in 1619. In 1956, the Capuchins completed a 15-volume edition of Lawrence’s writings. Eleven of these 15 contain his sermons, each of which relies chiefly on scriptural quotations to illustrate his teaching. Reflection His constant devotion to Scripture, coupled with great sensitivity to the needs of people, present a lifestyle which appeals to Christians today. Lawrence had a balance in his life that blended self-discipline with a keen appreciation for the needs of those whom he was called to serve. Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Welcome to the first of a miniseries from the struggling Acholi Quarter; a part of Kampala in Uganda that is getting help from a foundation called 22STARS. The story actually starts a few years earlier, when I got to know a Dutch/German woman, Stella Romana Airoldi on a Nomad Cruise. In case you don't know Nomad Cruise is like a conference for digital nomads on a cruise ship. On this one in the Mediterranean from Malaga to Athens, Stella was given a talk about a social enterprise and foundation called 22STARS – together with a Ugandan woman, Susan Laker. Susan and other Ugandan women are making jewellery out of colourful recycled paper and Stella is helping them sell it around the world. This talk and meeting Stella and Susan on the Nomad Cruise made me think, that I had to go to Uganda and see this with my own eyes. So, in this episode I'll take you along as I drive down a dirt road in the Acholi Quarter, a slum area in the outskirts of Kampala. I'm in the car with Nicholas Basalirwa from 22STARS, and there's a young woman on the street that looks just like Susan. She says hi to me in the car and I say, “are you Susan?” But the woman says “no, I'm her daughter” – and it surprised me that Susan could have a grown-up daughter. 22STARS JEWELLERY AND FOUNDATION Let me give you a bit of background. 22STARS started back in 2009 when Stella was 23 years old, and Susan was just two years older. Stella was studying international law and came to Uganda to do research for her thesis. Here, another Ugandan woman, Aidah Wafula, who's a social worker at an HIV/Aids Information Center in Kampala introduced her to Susan, who, at the time, didn't speak any English. But still, Stella could see hear her extreme willpower and sense her big heart, and Stella wanted to help any way she could. So, in the following few years Stella sent money annually to support Susan`s business, and with that support, Susan took the opportunity to go back to school. And she was able to put food on the table for her three children. Before she met Stella, they were working in the stone quarry, but now they were able to go to school. At the end of 2012, Stella returned to Kampala and was extremely impressed when Susan spoke to her in English and showed her what she had learned. Susan expressed the need to market and sell jewellery from the other women in her community, so that they also would be able to pay for the education of their children. And the very same day the 22STARS Jewellery business was created. WOMEN MAKING PAPER JEWELLERY As I get out of the car, I see a handful of women sitting on the sidewalk making the beautiful handmade paper jewellery. And they smile at me and give me a real Ugandan welcome – in the form of a happy outcry.  We're standing next to the women on the sidewalk or as Susan calls it “the factory of the beads.” They make beads, and turn them into jewellery, Christmas ornaments, and baskets. They are made out of recycled papers. Susan tells me how they measure them, they cut, roll, varnish and assemble them. Susan explains: “We assemble them in different fashions, and we roll them in different shapes. We also cut them in different centimetres or meters or others in millimetres.” Susan shows me some beautiful necklaces, and I'm impressed that it's all made out of paper. Make sure to go to theradiovagabond.com and see the picture I've taken. It's absolutely stunning. Each piece of jewellery is hand-crafted from 100% recycled paper by one of forty 22STARS empowered women. They buy old posters, bottle labels and magazines, then the women cut the paper in triangle shapes of various sizes, roll them up, glue them and varnish them. Every bead is waterproof, shiny, and hard. Once the beads are ready the designing starts. The necklace she's showing me should go for 50,000 Ugandan Shilling – that's around 13 USD or 12 EUR, but because they are desperate, they sell it for as low as 3,000 which is less than one Dollar or Euro. “They want to end living from hand to mouth and to have food on the table for the children. Some of them already slept with empty stomach, so they cannot resist. And if somebody says, I want these for 2000, or 1000, they'll just go for it. No one values the time and the energy that has been put into making it. Really this should go for 50,000 Ugandan shillings, but because we don't have the market, we give it out for 3000 or even 1000. So, we just do it but not willingly.” Think about this when you're at a local market in a developing country and are bargaining for a good price on local craft that has taken hours to make. In order to be less dependent on selling them on local markets here in Kampala, Stella also finds markets for the jewellery outside of Uganda. So far, they sell the jewellery in more than ten countries worldwide and are constantly looking for new people to become a wholesaler in other markets. If you're interested go to 22stars.com and reach out to Stella. LETTER FROM A LISTENER I've received a message from Nick Bolton. He's a 53-year-old guy from the UK that is about to embark on his own nomad journey. When he wrote this he was listening to my episode from Senegal. He writes: Hi Palle, Just wanted to share what an inspiring podcast you've created. To me, you're currently in Senegal so I guess there are parallel universes when you're a vagabond. I start my own full time vagabond journey in January by moving to Dubai as a base then travelling the world. Your podcast inspired that. In the meantime, this year is a year of mini adventures cycling from Brindisi to the UK and trekking in the Himalayas. I hope one day our paths cross on the Vagabond paths. PS - I lived on a boat for 3 years called Vagabond! Thank you so much for reaching out, Nick. I can't wait to follow your vagabonding journey. And I'm sure we're going to meet somewhere in the world at some point. On that note, I can recommend that you go to Bansko Nomad Fest in Bulgaria in June 2023. It's a great place to meet a lot of like-minded nomads. I'll be there for a full month and also doing a talk on how to start a podcast. PANDEMIC WAS TOUGH HERE A lot of people, they mistakenly think that the pandemic only affects tourism, but it affects everything, but Susan tells me that the Pandemic also affected everything here. “Since the lockdown, we have suffered with no market, nothing at all.  Everybody was affected. The schoolchildren, the parents, people living in the community. We were all packed in this small area. We don't have big houses and we don't have a fridge to store our food or anything. We don't have any garden and we live as refugees We survive on stone quarrying and these beads. We live from hand to mouth; this is how we feed, and people were not coming to our community to support us. We had no access to go to the bigger towns or the village to bring food and split them here in small quantity and sell them to the needy. So, people suffered.” The government promised that they would give food, but that was not nearly enough. Some families have as many as 17 people, and the food given to them was only enough for one or two days. There's they had no breakfast, no lunch, only a late, late dinner. And that was it. But thankfully 22STARS was able to do a lot to help them through this tough time. “We are so grateful. And thankfully with 22STARS we were able to put up a fundraising and we got food, donated several times, beans, rice, soap, clean water. We also got our children studying. We had to hire teachers. They bought us masks, they bought us all the equipment we needed. We were given laptops, projectors. We were also given solar system and a generator in in case there was no power. So, our children were kept well, thanks to donors and sponsors.” We also got blankets and mattresses donated. And this time when our children were returning back to school, we were given school scholastics, like books, bags, school shoes, which really helped a lot.” One of the main areas of work for 22STARS Foundation is education. The organization provides scholarships for children who come from disadvantaged backgrounds, enabling them to access quality education that would otherwise be out of reach. KIDS STAYED IN SCHOOL “I'm so thankful that none the children sponsored by 22STAS, dropped out of school because we were able to keep counselling them, providing them with education and different skills. We got them computers to keep them busy and avoid them from moving up and down the street looking for food, like most of the other children, who go pick scrap to sell and make a living. But thankfully our project supported with all the things that we were able to pass through this COVID 19 situation.” As the women are giving me yet another outcry of gratitude, Susan takes me into a small classroom with around 25 children around a table with maybe ten laptops. All the children are in yellow T-shirts where it says “22STARS. Education is Key”. The teacher, Joel Watimon, is a university student and has been volunteering as teacher for 20 months. See the pictures on TheRadioVagabond.com/267-Uganda. PROVIDING MICRO LOANS As Joel is starting his class, teaching basic computer skills, Susan takes me into the room next door where a lot of grown-ups are presenting their business ideas to Nicolas from 22STARS to get small business loans Because 22STARS Foundation provides microloans to local people in Uganda as a means of supporting them in starting or growing their small businesses. Susan explains that these loans are typically small amounts of money that can be used to purchase inventory, equipment, or other resources that will help the business to become more profitable. “Here are our ladies who are beneficiaries from the small business loan. This is this sixth time these ladies got the loan, and this has brought a lot of impact in their life. Their lives have changed. They have transformed from crushing stones and running on the street with the beads, trying to earn money to feed their families. But now, with the small business loan, given, most of them were able to find a permanent premises where they do operate their businesses through.” The microloan program works by providing loans to qualified applicants, who are often women that may have limited access to traditional financial institutions. The loans are provided at a low interest rate, and borrowers are given a specific period of time in which to repay the loan. To qualify for a microloan from 22STARS Foundation, applicants must meet certain criteria, such as demonstrating a viable business plan and showing that they have the capacity to repay the loan. Once approved, the loan is disbursed directly to the borrower, who is then responsible for using the funds to grow their business. ”Some of them are selling food, some of them are having the hairdressing salons, some of them are having shops. And with this they are able to support their family, buying scholastics for school, putting food on the table, clothes and paying their medication.” Along with providing financial support, 22STARS Foundation also offers business training and mentoring to help borrowers make the most of their loans. This includes support in developing marketing strategies, financial planning, and other skills that are essential for running a successful business. “They already had some business, but they didn't have capital. They already had some small skills of business, and the scale was so little that they didn't know how to do the business. So, we had we brought in Nicholas, and he taught the ladies how to handle businesses, how to save money, how to pay back the loan, how to budget, how to plan, and how to use the capital and the loan. He counsels them, talks to them, tell them why he was giving them such amount of the money. Nicholas comes again and makes sure we do the follow up. He also asks where were the challenges? How did it go? And if we finish all of that, we are given another money to continue again. The microloan program provided by 22STARS Foundation has helped many local people in Uganda to start or grow their businesses, providing a means of economic empowerment and helping to lift families out of poverty. In a break, I ask Nicholas what they are doing today in the room with the micro-business owners. “Basically, this is a session of feedback, what they think the changes they have to make in the next loan programme, what difficulties they are having and helping them try to find solutions in general to see how we can make the programme sustainable for everyone.” I also speak to one of the small business owners and one of the beneficiaries in the room: Mr. Becker. He has a small retail shop. He tells me that the program has helped his business a lot. “I'm very happy because it has made it possible for my business expand as I needed some extra capital for stock in my shop. With the loan it's been possible, and I'm doing well.” By supporting small business owners, the microloan program helps to create jobs, generate income, and promote economic growth in the local community. And later Susan will take me for a walk around to see the many small businesses that exits with help from the small loan program. MORE TO COME FROM ACHOLI QUATER That's what we have time for in this episode, but I have two more episodes from my visit to the Acholi Quarter in Kampala, Uganda. In the next one, I take a walk in the area with Susan and Nicholas from 22STARS. And they're showing me some of the small local businesses that are benefitting from the microloans. And then an episode where we focus on Susan's own story. And that will blow your mind. What that woman has been through and how she's been able to do what she has is unbelievable.
