A young newbie and Michael needs to show her the ropes but Michael is becoming disillusioned and alarmed about the prison crisis - death by a thousand cuts. Rihanna, her new boots too shiny and the prison keys heavy on her belt, hasn't a clue about what lies ahead and that life on the inside is just as tough for the officers as it is for the prisoners.Michael .....

In this episode of Talk of Fame, Kylie Montigney talks with  Bibi Hakim. Bibi is a passionate advocate for mental health and gender equality, with an impressive background in political science and public administration from the University of Ottawa, where she focused on international relations and mental health policy. She previously served as a Legislative Assistant in the Parliament of Canada, where she worked closely with Members of Parliament, analyzing bills, legislative amendments, and committee reports on international trade, science and technology, government operations, and more. Her commitment to global advocacy led her to the United Nations Population Fund's Asia-Pacific Regional Office in Thailand. There, Bibi championed initiatives to eliminate gender-based violence, promote gender equality, and strengthen international mental health advocacy. She played a key role in regional consultations for the UN Commission on the Status of Women and developed a monitoring and evaluation platform used across UNFPA regional and country offices. Bibi is also the founder of Project Breaking Barriers, a campus-based initiative that creates safe spaces for students to decompress and learn mental wellness practices. Her efforts sparked faculty-wide recognition, leading to the creation of a scholarship supporting students facing mental health and financial struggles. Her advocacy work has reached the federal level—Bibi authored a policy proposal calling for accessible, affordable, and inclusive mental health services. This proposal was adopted by three major political parties during the 2021 election and helped pave the way for the establishment of Canada's first federal Minister of Mental Health and Addictions. Bibi is also a proud recipient of the Duke of Edinburgh's Gold, Silver, Bronze, and commemorative Diamond Awards. Listen in as we discuss Bibi's journey advocating for Mental Health. You'll be inspired by her dedication to inspiring others through advocating for people with depression & anxiety.Follow Me:Instagram:@Officialkyliemontigney@TalkoffamepodFacebook:OfficialkyliemontigneyTalkoffameTwitter:@Kyliemontigney4About Me:Hi, I'm Kylie!

If we need proof that textiles can rewrite human history, then it lies with the bog bodies of northern Europe. Textile archaeologists are revealing a whole new past about people who, in some cases, are older than Tutankhamen, but much less celebrated. Across northern Europe there are hundreds of bog bodies, who long ago were buried in marshlands and were preserved down the centuries by acidic conditions and lack of oxygen. We will never know all their secrets, but slowly we are discovering more about who they were, and how they lived. It is their textiles that bring us closer to them and tell us, not just about their skills, but also how they thought and designed cloth and clothing.    In Denmark more than a hundred marsh bodies have been found - some in extraordinary states of preservation. They date from the late Bronze and early Iron Ages, and are between 1,500 and 3,000 years old. But what some of them are wearing can take us back much further than that, into a time when humans first started to cover their bodies with clothing. For this episode, Jo travelled to the National Museum of Denmark, in Copenhagen, to explore the textiles of two of the world's most famous bog bodies.   For more information about this episode and pictures of the people and places mentioned in this episode please go to https://hapticandhue.com/tales-of-textiles-series-7/.   And if you would like to find out about Friends of Haptic & Hue with an extra podcast every month hosted by Jo Andrews and Bill Taylor – here's the link: https://hapticandhue.com/join/

While we often look to the past for an example of a better world, our counterparts living in the ancient world did the same, viewing even their time as a fallen one, ruled by greed. Greek and Roman authors such as Hesiod and Ovid detailed the decay of the world from original perfection in the myth of the Golden, Silver, Bronze, and Iron Ages, and the philosophy of Plato, in his Statesman dialogue, leans upon the myth of the ages in its metaphysics. If we seek to understand the myth of the ages through mythology and philosophy, we find practical advice for hopeful living in our own lives, even in a world that feels fallen and broken.Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”Support the channel by subscribing, liking, and commenting to join the conversation!Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mythosandlogos00:00 Introduction00:12 Roman Mosaic Depicting Anaximander with Sundial00:20 Hesiod's Works and Days from Biblioteca Marciana00:55 The Creation by James Tissot01:16 The First Transformation01:32 Ovid's Metamorphoses from the European Library of Information and Culture02:00 Ovid, Metamorphoses, Book I03:13 Booroobin Sunshine Coast Australia by Jordan Condon, licensed under Creative Commons03:31 Star Map by Elizabeth Shurtleff03:40 The Golden Age04:01 The Golden Age by Lucas Cranach the Elder04:15 The Golden Age by Frans Francken the Younger et. al.04:26 Spring by Jean-Jacques Le Veau after Charles Dominique Joseph Eisen04:50 Funerary Stele of Demokleides, photographed by Furius, licensed under Creative Commons04:54 Hesiod, Works and Days05:11 Nothing Gold Can Stay05:15 Titan Struck by Lightning by François Dumont05:36 Winter by Jean-Jacques Le Veau after Charles Dominique Joseph Eisen05:50 Agricultural Calendar by Master of the Geneva Boccaccio08:58 Title Page to 1539 Edition of Hesiod's Works and Days06:20 The Souls of Acheron by Adolf Hirémy-Hirschl06:34 Achilles' Sacrifice of Trojan Prisoners from the François Tomb07:09 The Iron Age by Jan Collaert II et. al.07:22 The Iron Age by Jean-Jacques Le Veau after Charles Dominique Joseph Eisen07:32 The Age of Iron by Paolo Fiammingo07:40 Illustration from Griffith's Guide to the Iron Trade of Great Britain07:59 The Close of the Silver Age by Lucas Cranach the Elder08:19 Justice by Raphael08:26 Truth at the Bottom of a Well by Jean-Léon Gérome09:06 The Changing Ages09:16 Two Young Men Hunting a Deer by the Dokimasia Painter09:26 Artemis Kaurotrophos from Archaeological Museum of Brauron09:40 Page of the Codex Oxoniensis Clarkianus 39, Dialogue Politikos10:16 Saturnus by Jan Van Vianen10:28 Jupiter on his Eagle Enthroned in the Clouds by Stradanus10:55 The Age of Bronze by Paolo Fiammingo11:42 The Course of Empire by Thomas Cole12:18 The Golden Age by Hendrick van der Borcht the Elder12:36 The Stars Above12:58 The Golden Age by Abraham Bloemaert13:22 The Age of Gold by Jacopo Zucchi13:38 Booroobin Sunshine Coast Australia photographed by Jordan Condon, licensed under Creative Commons13:55 Astronomy Amateur by Halfblue, licensed under Creative Commons14:29 The Age of Gold by José Manuel Félix Magdalena, licensed under Creative CommonsAll works of art are in the public domain unless otherwise noted.Ambiment - The Ambient by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license.

Wenn ein Säulenheiliger der österreichischen Kunst museal präsentiert wird, dann sind wir natürlich zur Stelle. Fritz Wotruba, umbestritten ein bedeutender Bildhauer, wird im Belvedere aktuell mutig präsentiert. Eine Ausstellungsarchitektur, die dem Werk sehr selbstbewusst gegenübertritt. Sehr subjektiv wird hier jede/r für sich entscheiden müssen, ob sie/er das mag. Wir bezeichnen uns ja ganz gerne als Dinosaurier und manchmal weniger offen für Neues, als dies vielleicht gut wäre. Aber wir machen aus unseren Herzen keine Schlangengruben und ich weise gerne darauf hin, dass es sich ja bei unseren Ausführungen um unsere persönlichen Meinungen handelt. Nun, neugierig geworden? Dann hört doch rein in die aktuelle Episode des Podcast. Und jedenfalls bitte die Ausstellung ansehen. Im Belverdere 21 kommt es eigentlich immer zu spannenden Symbiosen zwischen der Kunst und dem Raum. Viel Spaß...

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with John Cox, bell ringer at Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral in the Cascade neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. Sometime early on Sunday, August 31, 2025, thieves got away with three bronze bells, and Mr. Cox and others are trying to track down the bells before they're melted down for scrap. The parish at Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral dates to the 1890s, and the current building was constructed in the 1930s. The bells are much more recent, but would be very difficult to replace - given they were made in Russia as part of an acoustically matched set of seven bells (four of which remain at the cathedal), and because the Russian invasion of Ukraine makes importing anything practically impossible. If you have any information about the bells stolen from Saint Spiridon Orthodox Cathedral, please call the Seattle Police Department. Thank you to Jean Sherrard for his assistance with this episode. CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org. The radio station broadcasts from studios at historic Magnuson Park – located in the former Master-at-Arms' quarters in the old Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle.

This week on Bronze and Modern Gods we're breaking down the hottest comic news and hidden gems heating up the market!

This week, as students in North America are returning to campus and settling into the rhythms of the fall semester, some of them are going to open their copies of Homer's epic poems of the Trojan War, the Iliad and Odyssey. They will read of the Trojan commander Hector's poignant farewell to his wife Andromache, of the Greek warrior Achilles' terrible rage, of Odysseus' long journey home, and of his wife in Ithaca, Penelope, who has endured his absence for some twenty years. For many students, these will be powerful stories—windows into an ancient world of honor and virtue and hubris—but for all that, distant stories. When read from the air-conditioned dorm room or plush campus library, the dust and blood and bronze of the Trojan War are abstract. But what happens when these same texts are read by young men and women who do know the weight of putting on armor, who have themselves kissed loved ones goodbye before departing for battle? Who must walk away from their own infant children in order to defend the country? What happens when the students who stand before Homer's text are not just dispassionately analyzing the soul of the warrior but are warriors themselves? Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver speaks in this episode with Ido Hevroni, a professor of literature at Shalem College in Jerusalem. For over a decade, Hevroni has guided Shalem students through Homer's epics, watching them grapple with these eternal questions of personal pride and public duty, private love and public defense, glory and sacrifice. But now, after October 7, his students find themselves in active combat, and he finds that it is Homer who is helping to explain their own experience back to themselves. And it is their experience in the tanks and tunnels of Gaza that is teaching them to read Homer with new eyes. Hevroni recently wrote about teaching the Odyssey in the pages of Mosaic, and that essay was published in honor of Ido's own teacher, Amy Apfel Kass, z”l, whose yortsayt on the fifth of Elul falls on the day that this conversation was originally broadcast. This discussion, too, is dedicated to her memory.

The power of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) as a tool for both managing health expenses and building your retirement savings is often overlooked. On this episode, I'm sharing the basics of HSAs, highlighting their triple tax-free advantage, and explaining why they might be one of the best ways to maximize your retirement savings, even compared to more familiar accounts like IRAs and 401(k)s. I also unpack some important upcoming changes to HSAs thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, set to take effect in 2026. These changes expand HSA eligibility, especially for those on healthcare exchange plans and direct primary care memberships. Whether you're new to HSAs or looking to fine-tune your retirement strategy, my practical tips—like how to track reimbursements, invest your HSA funds wisely, and ensure you're making the most of every retirement planning opportunity.  You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [00:00] HSA contributions and eligible expenses. [03:33] HSA eligibility and individual plans. [07:27] HSA vs. 401(k) savings benefits. [12:10] HSAs and tax-free retirement reimbursements. [14:57] HSA contributions and Medicare Timing. [16:44] Top HSA provider tips. What is an HSA and Who Qualifies? Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are often overlooked as powerful retirement planning vehicles. They are tax-advantaged accounts that allow individuals with high deductible health plans (HDHPs) to save and pay for qualified medical expenses. To be eligible, you must be enrolled in a qualifying HDHP; not all plans make the cut, so check with your insurer or employer to confirm eligibility. For 2025, annual contribution limits are $4,300 for individuals and $8,550 for families, with an additional $1,000 catch-up allowed for those age 55 and over. Both you and your employer can contribute, but the total combined contribution cannot exceed these limits. Triple Tax Advantage: The Unique HSA Benefit HSAs are the only accounts that offer a triple tax advantage: Pre-tax contributions: Contributions reduce your taxable income for the year, helping you save on federal and (in most cases) state income taxes. Tax-free growth: Money in your HSA can be invested, and all interest, dividends, and capital gains are tax-free while in the account. Tax-free withdrawals: Withdrawals used for qualified medical expenses remain tax-free, even in retirement. This makes HSAs one of the most tax-efficient savings vehicles available. HSAs as a Retirement Strategy While the primary purpose of an HSA is to cover medical expenses, its value extends far beyond that, especially for forward-thinking retirement planners. Many people cover their current medical out-of-pocket expenses with regular cash flow, allowing their HSA investments to grow tax-free for years, even decades. Upon reaching age 65, you are allowed to withdraw funds for non-medical expenses without penalty (although you will owe income tax, much like a traditional IRA). For medical expenses—including Medicare Part B, D, and Medicare Advantage premiums—withdrawals remain tax-free. However, Medigap policy premiums are not eligible for tax-free reimbursement from your HSA. A strategic approach can involve tracking your unreimbursed eligible medical expenses over the years. You can reimburse yourself in retirement with HSA funds for past qualified expenses, effectively turning your HSA into a tax-free retirement “bonus.” New HSA Legislation on the Horizon Looking ahead to 2026, recent legislative changes will further expand HSA eligibility and flexibility.  Expanded Access for Health Care Exchange Plans: Before 2026, only certain HDHPs on the healthcare exchange allowed HSA contributions. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act will enable individuals enrolled in any Bronze-tier plan through the health care exchange to qualify for HSA contributions, potentially making over 7 million more people eligible. Direct Primary Care Compatibility: Membership in direct primary care plans—where patients pay a monthly fee for enhanced access to primary care services—will now be compatible with HSA eligibility, subject to fee limits ($150/month for individuals, $300/month for families, indexed to inflation). Previously, participating in such plans disqualified individuals from contributing to HSAs. Common HSA Mistakes and Best Practices Investing your HSA balance (beyond a buffer for immediate health costs) can help you harness the benefits of compound growth over time. Compare fees and investment options among HSA providers to maximize long-term gains. Be mindful when approaching Medicare eligibility. HSA contributions must stop six months before you enroll in Medicare Part A, due to retroactive coverage.

The NBA released the full schedule for the upcoming season and each member of the show picked three games they have "circled" on the schedule.  Bruce leads us off with an opening night matchup between the Thunder and Rockets and the return of the NBA on NBC on October 21st. 2:25 ... World B chooses Warriors/Lakers on opening night, also on NBC. 3:36 ... Ross chooses Bucks/Pacers and Myles Turner's return to Indiana as a member of the Bucks. 4:20 ... Bruce is intrigued by the first meeting between the Magic and Knicks on November 12th. 5:09 ... World B looks forward to Spurs/Mavericks on October 22nd in a matchup with Cooper Flagg and Victor Wembanyama. 6:28 ... Ross looks forward to Kevin Durant's return to Phoenix on November 24th. 7:37 ... Bruce is excited about the first matchup between the Pacers and Celtics on December 22nd. 8:39 ... World B looks forward to the Christmas Day matchup with the Cavaliers and Knicks at the Garden.  These are the likely top two teams in the east. 10:08 ... March 21st marks the Bucks visit to Phoenix as Ross looks forward to his yearly reunion with Giannis Antetokounmpo on his once a year visit to Ross' hometown. 11:09 ... The NBA and the Players Association are backing additional limitations on prop bets in the wake of gambling investigations involving Malik Beasley and Terry Rozier.  The crew examines all the angles of basketball wagering and wonders if it's possible to put the genie back in the bottle now that sports gambling has become so mainstream.  Everyone agrees that the integrity of the game can be adversely affected by gambling and the league needs to act responsibly to protect the image of the league. 21:11 ... Each panelist discusses one significant move that was made by their favorite team in the off-season.  Bruce picks the Celtics signing of Chris Boucher, the 8 year veteran who comes to Boston from Toronto. 22:33 ... World B feels the Knicks hiring of new head coach Mike Brown was a major move for the franchise.  He compares the hiring to the Yankees hiring of Joe Torre back in 1996. 25:00 ... Ross loves the Cole Anthony signing for his Milwaukee Bucks and adds that the acquisition of Amir Coffey will also be a major boost for the Bucks. 26:52 ... The Lakers will honor former coach Pat Riley with a statue on February 22nd.  The crew wonders why the Heat didn't honor him first, but all were thankful that the sculptor who did the Dwyane Wade statue in Miami isn't doing this one. 30:09 ... Bruce recounts some of the stories Lakers legend Michael Cooper told about Riles two weeks ago when he appeared on 48 Minutes.  One of the best concerned how Riley buried secret words in each player's video splits that the coach later quizzed them on. 32:33 ... Final Thoughts .... Bruce is saddened by the fact that it seems certain that Al Horford will never play another game for the Celtics.  If Big Al goes to Golden State, it's highly unlikely the Celtics will retire his #42. 34:58 ... World B talked about Major League Baseball's consideration of a realignment plan to keep the fans interested in the sport.  Adam Silver has also tried some things in the NBA with the in-season tournament an play in games.    World B praises Silver for his efforts. 38:00 ... Ross' final thought was to discuss some trades the Suns chose not to make when they dealt Kevin Durant.   Miami made an offer that the Suns turned down and everyone shared their thoughts on why Phoenix made a better deal with Houston.  Phoenix also could have made a deal where they acquired an unprotected #1 pick from New Orleans next season in the Durant deal and everyone feels like the Suns will regret not doing it. 43:06 ... Bruce shouts out to Shawn Bradley, who was paralyzed in a bike accident but appeared in public at a Big 3 game over the weekend in Dallas.  It was one of the only times he's apeared in public since his bike crash in 2021.   TRT 44:25

Generals in Bronze: Interviewing the Commanders of the Civil War by William B. Styple (Part 4/4) 1863 GETTYSBURG Revealing interviews with the commanders of the Civil War. In the decades that followed the American Civil War, Artist James E. Kelly (1855-1933) conducted in-depth interviews with over forty Union Generals in an effort to accurately portray them in their greatest moment of glory. Kelly explained: "I had always felt a great lact of certain personal details. I made up my mind to ask from living officers every question I would have asked Washington or his generals had they posed for me, such as: What they considered the principal incidents in their career and particulars about costumes and surroundings." During one interview session with Gen. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, Kelly asked about the charge at Fort Damnation. Gen. Chamberlain acquiesced, but then added, "I don't see how you can show this in a picture." "Just tell me the facts," Kelly responded, "and I'll attend to the picture." And by recording those stirring facts, Kelly left us not only his wonderful art, but a truly unique picture of the lives of the great figures of the American Civil War.1 863 GETTYSBURG
