On episode 228, we discussed Bulgaria, clotheslines, and aprons. Enjoy!

In this episode of Behaviour Speak, I speak with Zornitsa Ivanova, the first board certified behaviour analyst living and working in Bulgaria. Zornitsa shares her journey from special education and child psychology into applied behaviour analysis (ABA), and what it has been like introducing evidence-based autism intervention in a country where the field barely existed a decade ago. From translating ABA resources into Bulgarian to helping train the next generation of practitioners, Zornitsa is helping build the foundation for behaviour analysis in Eastern Europe. If you're interested in global behaviour analysis, autism services, or the international expansion of ABA, this conversation offers a fascinating look at what it takes to grow a field from the ground up. This episode is presented by our founding academic partner, the Doctor of Education in the field of Applied Behaviour Analysis program at Western University's Faculty of Education.  Watch the video: https://youtu.be/MDgZN7MROEY Program Information: https://www.edu.uwo.ca/graduate-education/edd/applied-behaviour-analysis.html How to apply: https://www.edu.uwo.ca/graduate-education/apply.html Program brochure: https://www.edu.uwo.ca/graduate-education/edd/foe120_edd_aba_r1.png   Continuing Education Credits (https://www.cbiconsultants.com/shop) BACB: 0.5 Ethics IBAO:  0.5 Cultural QABA: 0.5 General CBA/CPD:    0.5 Cultural Diversity   Follow us!

refurbed, the leading online marketplace for refurbished products in Ireland, has surpassed €3 billion in cumulative Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) and expanded into 12 new European markets, doubling its footprint and marking a major milestone in the mainstream adoption of refurbished products. The company reached €3 billion in the total value of goods sold through its marketplace less than 12 months after passing €2 billion, reflecting year-on-year GMV growth of over 40%. The milestone follows a €50 million investment round in November 2025 and profitability achieved earlier that year, providing a strong foundation for continued expansion across Europe. "Refurbished is no longer a niche – it's becoming the default for many customers across Europe." said Peter Windischhofer, co-founder and CEO of refurbed. "We've proven that a circular business model can scale profitably. Surpassing €3 billion in GMV and expanding into 12 new markets shows that." To date, refurbed has sold 10 million products across their European markets and over 50% of its customers have returned for additional purchases. Since entering the Irish market five years ago, refurbed has sold more than 400,000 products to over 200,000 customers, contributing over €146 million in GMV. Through the purchase of refurbished devices, Irish customers have saved almost 17 million kilograms of CO?, more than 5 billion litres of water and nearly 60,000 kilograms of electronic waste. Pan-European expansion at scale The company's new markets include Spain, France, the UK, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Bulgaria and Luxembourg, bringing refurbed's addressable market to approximately 486 million consumers. Leading brands available on the platform include Dyson and Kärcher in home and garden, alongside Apple, Samsung and Google in consumer electronics. "This expansion is a deliberate next step," Windischhofer adds. "After reaching profitability and securing fresh investment, we are deploying capital where we see clear demand, strong supply infrastructure and long-term value creation. We scale where our model works – and we know it works." €3 Billion GMV: Refurbishment moves into the mainstream The acceleration from €2 billion to €3 billion in under a year highlights growing consumer trust in refurbished products and increasing competitive strength against new product sales. Premium supply is expanding rapidly, with the premium product share of order volume increasing by +113% and the premium share of GMV rising by +90% since the category launched in 2025. "We are witnessing a clear, structural shift in consumer behaviour," says Kilian Kaminski, co-founder of refurbed. "Smart and sustainable growth is no longer a trade-off. The circular economy is becoming mainstream, and Europe has the opportunity to lead globally by proving that profitability and sustainability go hand in hand." To date, refurbed has contributed to saving 445,000 tonnes of CO2 by offering refurbished instead of new products to consumers. See more stories here.

In the early 1990s, a strange and controversial excavation project began in the small Bulgarian village of Tsarichina, just northwest of Sofia. What came to be known as the Tsarichina Hole quickly became one of the most mysterious and unsettling events in Eastern Europe's modern paranormal history. The Bulgarian military, without explanation, cordoned off the area and began digging a massive shaft that reportedly stretched over 100 feet deep. Rumors spread rapidly that the military was searching for lost treasure, alien artifacts, or even the remains of an ancient non-human entity. Witnesses claimed to have seen unusual lights, heard unsettling sounds, and felt an oppressive energy around the site. When the project was suddenly abandoned in 1992 without official explanation, locals and researchers alike were left to speculate on what had really been uncovered beneath the ground. Was the Tsarichina Hole a failed treasure hunt, a concealed archaeological discovery, or undeniable evidence of contact with extraterrestrial intelligence? The secrecy surrounding the excavation has fueled decades of theories, connecting the site to UFOs, psychic communication, interdimensional portals, and Bulgaria's hidden history. In this video, we dive deep into the legend of the Tsarichina Hole, separating fact from speculation while analyzing eyewitness accounts, military reports, and paranormal claims. We'll explore the possibility of ancient relics buried beneath Tsarichina, discuss why Bulgarian authorities may have gone to such lengths to seal off the area, and consider how this strange event fits into the broader landscape of UFO sightings, alien encounters, and unexplained phenomena across the world. Whether you believe the Tsarichina Hole was a simple military dig gone wrong, or that it hides one of the greatest secrets ever discovered on Earth, this mystery remains a powerful reminder of how much we still don't know about our planet's past. If you enjoy content about paranormal mysteries, unsolved cases, UFO encounters, alien artifacts, and ancient civilizations, then make sure to watch until the end and subscribe for more deep dives into the strange and unexplained. The truth about the Tsarichina Hole may still be buried underground, but the story continues to haunt researchers, believers, and skeptics to this day.

În acest dialog, părintele Teologos şi părintele Damian urmăresc, pas cu pas, cum s-au acumulat tensiunile dintre Constantinopol și Roma în secolul al IX-lea: iconoclasmul, jocurile de culise imperiale, cazul Ignatie-Fotie şi miza misiunii în Bulgaria. În centrul discuției stă Sinodul 8 Ecumenic, prezentat ca moment de clarificare şi pace, dar și ca răspuns la adaosul Filioque. Firul istoric rămâne viu şi astăzi, pentru că arată cum adevărul se confirmă în timp. Vizionare plăcută!Pentru Pomelnice și Donații accesați: https://www.chilieathonita.ro/pomelnice-si-donatii/Pentru mai multe articole (texte, traduceri, podcasturi) vedeți https://www.chilieathonita.ro/

The sharpest cuts came after the federal EV tax credit expired, with the Hyundai IONIQ 5 leading the slide at a 13.8% drop of over $7,000, followed by the Chevrolet Equinox EV at nearly $4,000 off — six models in total posted drops above 5%. FORD TEASES EUROPE CAR RETURN AFTER FIESTA, FOCUSFord CEO Jim Farley used the Q4 2025 earnings call to signal "exciting plans" for passenger cars in Europe, framing the comeback as a selective, profitable return to specific segments rather than a volume land grab. Two new EVs built on Renault's Ampere platform are expected in the subcompact segment from the Ford–Renault partnership, with new passenger cars set to start arriving in 2027 under a new dedicated Europe passenger-car leadership role. UBER EXPANDS EV RIDES ACROSS EIGHT UK CITIESUber has rolled out its EV ride option to eight more UK cities — Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Belfast and Merseyside — at standard UberX prices, after falling short of its pledge to run an all-electric London fleet by end-2025. Only 40% of London miles are now covered by EVs, with UK General Manager Andrew Brem citing charging access as "the biggest barrier," prompting Uber to announce driver support measures including discounted home and public charging in partnership with Pod Point. BMW TALKS PRICE FLOOR TO DODGE EU MINI DUTYBMW and the European Commission are in advanced talks to replace the EU's 20.7% countervailing duty on China-made Mini BEVs with a minimum import price agreement, according to Handelsblatt — covering the Mini Cooper Electric and Mini Aceman, both built at BMW's Zhangjiagang joint venture with Great Wall Motor. The approach would mirror the "price undertaking" the EU accepted from Volkswagen Anhui in early February, which freed the Cupra Tavascan from countervailing duties in exchange for a confidential price floor, volume cap and EU investment commitments. EU CITY BUS SALES HIT 60% ZERO-EMISSIONSix in ten new city buses registered across the EU in 2025 were zero-emission — 56% battery-electric and 4% fuel cell — a dramatic jump from just 12% when the Clean Vehicles Directive was adopted in 2019. Five member states hit 100% zero-emission city bus sales in 2025 (Bulgaria, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia and Slovenia), and Transport & Environment says a fully zero-emission EU city bus market is achievable as early as 2028.​MG2 SET FOR 2027 UK LAUNCH AT £20,000MG will enter the electric supermini segment in 2027 with the all-new MG2, targeting a starting price of around £20,000 (~$25,200), to take on rivals including the Renault 5, Citroën e-C3, Fiat Grande Panda and the incoming VW ID. Polo. The car will use the newer E3 architecture from the MG4 Urban, run front-wheel drive with a torsion-beam rear axle for cost efficiency, and feature a 12.8-inch touchscreen with physical climate controls — a reveal is expected in the second half of 2026. MG CONFIRMS MGS9 PHEV SEVEN-SEATER FOR UKMG will launch the MGS9 plug-in hybrid SUV in the UK later in 2026 as its new flagship, offering three full adult-sized rows and targeting rivals such as the Peugeot 5008, Kia Sorento and Skoda Kodiaq at a value-led price point. The model already holds a five-star Euro NCAP rating and could reach UK showrooms as early as summer 2026, extending MG's line-up to 11 models. AUSTRALIA NVES DATA SHOWS HYBRIDS DO THE HEAVY LIFTAustralia's National Vehicle Emissions Standard published its first half-year performance data (July–December 2025), showing EVs made up roughly 12% of new vehicles supplied, with about two-thirds of manufacturers — including BYD and Polestar — meeting their fleet-wide emissions targets. Petrol- and hybrid-focused brands such as Mazda and Hyundai fell short and face penalties if they don't improve, while the data reveals that near-term emissions gains are leaning more on efficient hybrids than on full EVs. LECTRON ADAPTERS WIN UL 2252 SAFETY CERTIFICATIONLectron has earned UL 2252 safety certification across its full range of EV charging adapters — covering J3400, CCS1 and J1772 in both AC and DC variants — with its two DC adapters handling up to 500 amps at 1,000 volts for peak power of 500 kW, and built-in thermal sensors that trigger derating if heat rises during fast charging. The certification comes as the North American charging landscape remains split between NACS and CCS1 on DC networks and J1772 on AC infrastructure, making a certified bridging adapter an increasingly essential tool for EV drivers navigating the transition.

As Germany conquered countries in WWII, in many nations, they found willing volunteers to help them identify Jews to send to concentration camps. However, not every country did. Finland, Bulgaria, and Albania engaged in a spirited defense of their Jewish communities in the face of Nazi oppression.  However, no country did more to save its Jewish population than Denmark.

Interviu cu istoricii Armand Goșu și Cosmin Popa, la 4 ani de război în g4media. „Nu exclud un scenariu care să reaprindă conflictul diplomatic între București și Kiev” / „Putin construiește un regim fascist într-un cămin de bătrâni” / „A crescut ostilitatea față de Europa” / „Războiul are efecte morale devastatoare asupra rușilor”. Sunt câteva idei desprinse din interviu. Articolul complet pe  g4media.ro PressOne trece în revistă 4 ani de război în Ucraina: Ce știm sigur - și aproape sigur - despre ajutorul militar pe care România l-a acordat Kievului până acum. După 4 ani de război în Ucraina, provocat de invazia militară a Rusiei, declanșată pe 24 februarie 2022, România continuă să facă o ciudată excepție printre țările NATO și UE, în ceea ce privește transparentizarea clară a ajutoarelor militare acordate până acum Kievul. În ciuda secretomaniei afișate de București, există câteva certitudini legate de ajutorul militar concret pe care România l-a acordat până acum Ucrainei Cea mai importantă donație pentru armata ucraineană făcută de România: un întreg sistem antiaerian Patriot PAC 3, de ultimă generație România mai oferă sprijin în ceea ce privește pregătirea piloților ucraineni pe avioanele F-16 PressOne vorbeste si despre Ciudata „suveică” România-Bulgaria în materie de exporturi de armament care ajung, prin ricoșeu, în Ucraina Această pseudo-„ambiguitate strategică” a fost parafată în perioada președinției lui Klaus Iohannis, când toate cifrele clare, legate de cantitatea și tipul de ajutor militar acordat Kievului au fost secretizate în CSAT. Venirea la Cotroceni a lui Nicușor Dan nu a schimbat această paradigmă. Emblematică rămâne, din acest punct de vedere, declarația făcută de noul ministru al Apărării, Radu Miruță, care a explicat de ce „nu e bine” să se știe cât armament a dat România Ucrainei. Ajutorul pentru Ucraina a depășit miliardul de euro, dar autoritățile de la București nu spun ce anume „s-a dat” în acest ajutor ............................................................................................................................................................................. Serviciile de informații trebuie restructurate fundamental. România a pierdut războiul hibrid cu Rusia - spune Corneliu Bjola, profesor al Universității Oxford din Marea Britanie într-un interviu pentru spotmedia.ro Seful grupului de cercetare “Oxford Digital Diplomacy”, consideră că Nicușor Dan a fost tratat cu superioritate în SUA de către oficialii americani, expunându-se gratuit într-o încercare dificilă de a reface relațiile privilegiate cu Washingtonul, în contextul în care SUA se retrag din Europa. ...................................................................................................................................................................... Comisia de Deontologie din cadrul Colegiului Psihologilor din România și Poliția Capitalei s-au autosesizat în cazul Ion Duvac, în urma dezvăluirilor făcute de PressOne. Poliția Capitalei face apel către toate persoanele „care consideră că au fost victime ale unor astfel de comportamente (n.red. hărțuire) să se adreseze poliției, în vederea formulării unei plângeri” scrie PressOne. Investigația arată cum Ion Duvac, doctor în psihologie și membru în Comisia de Deontologie și Disciplină a Colegiului Psihologilor din România, își hărțuiește sexual pacientele prin propuneri sexuale explicite și cere poze cu părțile intime ale femeilor, încă de la prima ședință, potrivit unei înregistrări ajunse în posesia redacției. În aceeași înregistrare, Duvac afirmă că nu e prima dată când face acest lucru.  ............................................................................................................................................................................................. Bolojan amenință cu revocarea miniștrii și secretarii de stat, dacă România pierde bani din PNRR Premierul Ilie Bolojan a avertizat că miniștrii și secretarii de stat riscă revocarea din funcție dacă România va pierde fonduri din Planul Național de Redresare și Reziliență (PNRR), subliniind că răspunderea pentru neîndeplinirea angajamentelor va fi politică, dar și administrativă. Declarațiile au fost făcute, luni, în cadrul reuniunii Comitetului Interministerial de Coordonare a PNRR, desfășurată sub coordonarea prim-ministrului și a ministrului Investițiilor și Proiectelor Europene, Dragoș Pîslaru.

For review:1. The next round of talks between the United States and Iran will be Thursday in Geneva, Oman's foreign minister said.2. American refueler and cargo planes were spotted at Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv on Monday, amid a massive US buildup of military forces ahead of a potential attack on Iran.There was no comment from Israeli authorities regarding the American military deployment at Israel's main civilian airport.3. Bulgaria's Sofia International Airport briefly suspended civilian air operations twice over the weekend while a fleet of American military aircraft staged at the facility, fueling speculation that Washington is positioning forces ahead of a potential strike on Iran.4. US President Donald Trump hits back amid a series of reports that his top general has been warning him against the consequences of a prolonged military campaign against Iran. 5. Another round of talks aimed at ending the war in Ukraine could be held at end of this week, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's chief of staff told Ukrainian media on Monday."I think at the end of the week, this week," Kyrylo Budanov told reporters when asked about the next round of talks.6. The Air Force today announced a new agreement with Northrop Grumman to “ramp” production of the in-development B-21 Raider, using $4.5 billion in reconciliation funding to help deliver the bomber by 2027.7. The US Army briefly published and then removed new official images of its Long Range Hypersonic Weapon (LRHW), offering rare updated views of the system as it nears operational fielding.8. The US Marine Corps has confirmed it will not field the Sig Sauer M7 assault rifle, steering away from a potential adoption in partnership with the US Army.This decision leaves the service operating its M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle (IAR) due to its proven effectiveness in amphibious deployments.

El T-55 estaba preparado para una eventual guerra de respuesta a la OTAN y era el standard en el Pacto de Varsovia, por lo que pudimos verlo en todos los ejércitos del Bloque del Este. En Budapest o Praga se hicieron omnipresentes en las intervenciones ordenadas por Moscú. Y últimamente se están viendo en el conflicto de Ucrania, utilizados como artillería autopropulsada.

In this episode, I talk with George Strezov about how imagination, world-building, and instinct shape the way he writes music. We dig into growing up in Bulgaria, discovering film and game music through RPGs and early PC games, and why “vibe” often matters more than rules or theory. George shares how he thinks about atmosphere, writing to picture, and creating music that places the listener inside a world rather than explaining it. This is a conversation about how music works on a felt level — how it creates space, meaning, and immersion — and what happens when you trust instinct over formulas.

Our gifts and talents are a powerful way to share God's love with others. Today's guest, artist Eva Timothy, shares from her life experience that when we humbly reach out to God through prayer, with the desire to glorify Him, He will help those gifts shine. As women, we contain multitudes, each of us at different life stages and varied life circumstances. Our loving Heavenly Father knows where we're at and what we can give, which is precisely why our individual traits, gifts, and talents are exactly what God needs from us. We don't need to start a new hobby or change our personality. When we channel our unique gifts through the lens of God's love then, like the loaves and fishes, our efforts and talents are multiplied, bringing more light and hope to the world around us.  Eva is an award-winning fine art photographer. She was one of the first Latter-day Saint converts in Bulgaria following the fall of the Berlin Wall. Over her life, she has developed a lifelong passion for light—both as a physical medium and as a symbol of divine inspiration. Eva blends artistry, enthusiasm, and spirituality to explore how creativity shapes our lives, encouraging us all to nurture our creative gifts and to look for the light.

Problema nu este că suntem în recesiune tehnică, ci că vânzările de apartamente scad, iar acest lucru se duce din ce în ce mai mult în toată economia: banii stau blocaţi, activitatea economică scade, iar bugetul se va trezi cu o mare problemă (Ziiarul Financiar) - Bani pierduți. România a luat jumătate din banii gratis prin PNRR și un sfert din fondurile europene de coeziune (Cotidianul) Cum poate Nicușor Dan să transforme participarea la Consiliul Pǎcii de la Washington într-un atu strategic (Adevărul) Participarea președintelui Nicușor Dan la Consiliului Pǎcii de la Washington marchează un punct de cotitură pentru administrația de la Cotroceni, însă succesul acestui demers depinde de transformarea unei decizii tardive într-o ofensivă diplomatică regională, spune analistul Gabriel Done.  „Anunțul recent al președintelui Nicușor Dan, conform căruia România va participa la primul summit al Consiliului pentru Pace (BoP) în calitate de observator, reflectă o decizie cu potențial strategic, dar luată într-un context de sincronizare imperfectă cu partenerii săi europeni. În timp ce Bulgaria va participa ca membru, iar Cipru își asumă participarea în calitate de observator în numele Președinției rotative a UE, România rămâne în afara cercului central al deciziilor, ceea ce pune în evidență o inadecvare în alinierea cu principalele capitale partenere”, spune expertul. Această decizie, chiar dacă tardivă, poate fi interpretată pozitiv, adaugă Done pentru Adevărul. România are acum oportunitatea de a folosi BoP pentru a-și legitima mandatul internațional asumat de președintele Dan și a-și reconstrui profilul în politica externă. „Contextul intern a forțat însă această acțiune: opoziția, în special formațiunea AUR, a preluat agenda politică externă, lăsând atât Palatul Cotroceni, cât și guvernul, într-o poziție defensivă, în off-side. Aceasta a creat un climat în care președintele Dan trebuie să acționeze pro-activ, pentru a-și reafirma relevanța și a calma vocile interne critice.” Fără dar și poate, decizia Palatului Cotroceni de a participa, chiar și ca observator, are semne bune, deoarece „oferă României o fereastră pentru influență într-un format internațional complicat, dar și pentru a demonstra voință de colaborare transatlantică.” Cu toate acestea, succesul acestei decizii depinde de capacitatea președintelui Dan de a dubla participarea cu o politică regională coerentă. „Trebuie să inițieze dialoguri strategice cu Bulgaria, Turcia și Cipru, imediat după alinierea cu Italia, pentru a evita percepția de izolare și lipsă de consistență”, explică expertul. Problema nu este că suntem în recesiune tehnică, ci că vânzările de apartamente scad, iar acest lucru se duce din ce în ce mai mult în toată economia: banii stau blocaţi, activitatea economică scade, iar bugetul se va trezi cu o mare problemă (Ziiarul Financiar) Problema nu este că am intrat în recesiune tehnică, ci că această tendinţă de reducere a cheltuielilor, a consumului, a continuat şi în luna ianuarie, continuă în februarie și nu ştiu dacă se va schimba situaţia în martie, chiar cu creşterea cheltuielilor cu florile, ciocolată, prăjituri, mese la restaurant şi, bineînţeles, mărţişoare şi cadouri. Dacă s-au pierdut primele trei luni din an de consum, degeaba vom avea o creştere a investiţiilor, aşa cum spune peste tot premierul Bolojan că se schimbă paradigma, adică economia trece de la consum la investiţii. Investiţiile, dacă se vor realiza, nu se realizează peste noapte, nu au efect imediat, se văd în statistică mult mai încolo. Noi avem nevoie acum, nu peste un an, de câteva măsuri pe termen scurt care să revigoreze consumul, de la consumul de alimente, produse nealimentare, bunuri de folosinţă îndelungată, maşini, până la vânzările de apartamente. Aproape toată lumea stă pe bani, aproape toată ecomomia stă pe bani şi se uită la ei cum stau în depozitele bancare sau prin sertare. Dacă banii stau, nu avem niciun fel de creştere economică, iar de la recesiune, fie ea şi tehnică, nu mai este decât un pas până la o criză economică, scrie jurnalistul Cristian Hostiuc în Ziarul Financiar. Până când va intra în vigoare pachetul de relansare economică, care este foarte greoi din perspectivă legislativă, economia se va duce în jos, iar în momentul în care investitorii vor vedea că avem scădere economică, nu vor mai face nicio investiţie, în ciuda pachetului de relansare economică. Toate companiile se uită în acest moment şi cu mai mare prudenţă la a face noi investiţii, la a face noi angajări, chiar şi la a veni în România. Toată această gâlceavă publică din cadrul coaliţiei de guvernare, toată această retorică a PSD care este principalul partid de guvernare, la adresa premierului Bolojan îi determină pe investitori să fie şi mai prudenţi. Pentru ei nu contează sistemul de taxe, care oricum este în continuare foarte bun versus alte ţări, ci au multe semne de întrebare legate de viitorul politic şi economic al României. Bani pierduți. România a luat jumătate din banii gratis prin PNRR și un sfert din fondurile europene de coeziune (Cotidianul) Cotidianul a obținut cele mai noi date de la Ministerul Proiectelor și Fondurilor Europene privind absorbția banilor de la UE. Bilanțul nu le face tocmai cinste miniștrilor și premierilor din ultimii cinci ani. România a reușit să atragă doar 26% din fondurile de coeziune puse la dispoziție în 2021. În privința PNRR stă și mai prost. UE ne roagă cu bani gratis, dar România nu e capabilă să-i absoarbă. Autoritățile promit să atragă în 2026 ce nu au reușit în cinci ani. În decembrie 2026 vine bilanțul final. Va fi PNRR un succes sau un eșec răsunător?

Full Text of Readings Memorial of Saints Cyril, Monk, and Methodius, Bishop Lectionary: 334 The Saint of the day is Saints Cyril and Methodius Saints Cyril and Methodius' Stories Because their father was an officer in a part of Greece inhabited by many Slavs, these two Greek brothers ultimately became missionaries, teachers, and patrons of the Slavic peoples. After a brilliant course of studies, Cyril (called Constantine until he became a monk shortly before his death) refused the governorship of a district such as his brother had accepted among the Slavic-speaking population. Cyril withdrew to a monastery where his brother Methodius had become a monk after some years in a governmental post. A decisive change in their lives occurred when the Duke of Moravia asked the Eastern Emperor Michael for political independence from German rule and ecclesiastical autonomy (having their own clergy and liturgy). Cyril and Methodius undertook the missionary task. Cyril's first work was to invent an alphabet, still used in some Eastern liturgies. His followers probably formed the Cyrillic alphabet. Together they translated the Gospels, the psalter, Paul's letters and the liturgical books into Slavonic, and composed a Slavonic liturgy, highly irregular then. That and their free use of the vernacular in preaching led to opposition from the German clergy. The bishop refused to consecrate Slavic bishops and priests, and Cyril was forced to appeal to Rome. On the visit to Rome, he and Methodius had the joy of seeing their new liturgy approved by Pope Adrian II. Cyril, long an invalid, died in Rome 50 days after taking the monastic habit. Methodius continued mission work for 16 more years. He was papal legate for all the Slavic peoples, consecrated a bishop and then given an ancient see (now in the Czech Republic). When much of their former territory was removed from their jurisdiction, the Bavarian bishops retaliated with a violent storm of accusation against Methodius. As a result, Emperor Louis the German exiled Methodius for three years. Pope John VIII secured his release. Because the Frankish clergy, still smarting, continued their accusations, Methodius had to go to Rome to defend himself against charges of heresy and uphold his use of the Slavonic liturgy. He was again vindicated. Legend has it that in a feverish period of activity, Methodius translated the whole Bible into Slavonic in eight months. He died on Tuesday of Holy Week, surrounded by his disciples, in his cathedral church. Opposition continued after his death, and the work of the brothers in Moravia was brought to an end and their disciples scattered. But the expulsions had the beneficial effect of spreading the spiritual, liturgical, and cultural work of the brothers to Bulgaria, Bohemia and southern Poland. Patrons of Moravia, and specially venerated by Catholic Czechs, Slovaks, Croatians, Orthodox Serbians and Bulgarians, Saints Cyril and Methodius are eminently fitted to guard the long-desired unity of East and West. In 1980, Pope John Paul II named them additional co-patrons of Europe. Reflection Holiness means reacting to human life with God's love: human life as it is, crisscrossed with the political and the cultural, the beautiful and the ugly, the selfish and the saintly. For Saints Cyril and Methodius much of their daily cross had to do with the language of the liturgy. They are not saints because they got the liturgy into Slavonic, but because they did so with the courage and humility of Christ. Dear Saints Cyril and Methodius: Pray for us!Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Miro Tcholakov is back on California Wine Country with Dan Berger and Daedalus Howell, and Melissa Galliani is also in the studio today.  He operates Miro Cellars and is also winemaker for Trentadue Wines. Miro has been on CWC before, on this episode back on September 9, 2020. and his last appearance was this episode on April 5, 2024. Miro has brought a Chardonnay, the only Chardonnay he makes now. The vineyard belongs to the De Loach family. It was given “incomplete” malolactic fermentation, so it doesn't have too much “popcorny” flavor. This wine won a gold medal at the SF Chronicle competition. Miro grew up in Bulgaria. Sometimes he refers to it as “way back east.” After college in Bulgaria, he came to the US on a student visa. He had good grades in biology and, also needed to do two years of military service. His degree was agronomy engineering, specialized in viticulture. Then in 1990 he won access to an exchange program to the US. He chose viticulture and he was the only one of the six who went to the west coast. He worked a standard harvest internship at Dry Creek Vineyards. The night before he was supposed to leave, they asked him to stay, to cover for an injured colleague. He rose through the ranks and nine years later he took a full time winemaker job at Trentadue. When he was growing up in Bulgaria, his grandfather made wine. They made about 1000 bottles of wine per year. CWC is brought to you by Deodora Estate Vineyards. Visit Deodora to discover 72 acres in the Petaluma Gap that are producing exceptional Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Riesling. Sip the difference!  Pinot Noir too Next they taste the Pinot Noir. Miro doesn't usually make Pinot Noir. He was known for making Petite Syrah and Zinfandel, but he wanted to try it just to say he can do that too. He gives credit to the work in the vineyard. “I am in opportunistic buyer…” of Pinot Noir grapes. It won a double gold medal from the SF Chronicle competition. Daedalus tastes dry cherry, old books, dustiness. Miro thinks maybe it's from the oak or the terroir. It's supple and round. It might handle about five or six years of aging. Daedalus' judgement: “Super drinkable, dangerously drinkable.” Later the discussion turns to the wine market and everyone’s opinion of how this downturn looks from their point of view. Aurelio Aguilar who is twenty-six, speaks for his generation. He suggests that winemakers have an important opportunity to get young people familiar with experiences like wine tasting. Then Miro tells his story of how the cave woman invented wine. Next they taste the Grenache named after his daughter, Cuvée Sasha. He started making it when she was born, 23 years ago, and for the last 10 years the grapes have come from the same vineyard on the shore of Lake Mendocino. Grenache is a good wine for any occasion, sort of like Pinot but spicier, and can have a hidden bite of tannin when younger. It’s fruity but can also be earthy. It is easy to pair with anything, Miro suggests grilled salmon or tuna. It can benefit from chilling, too. Melissa suggests bringing Grenache as a hostess gift, for it novelty and quality. Affordable Luxury “You can make high quality wines at a reasonable price. It’s possible. I’ve been doing it for twenty-three years.”

Six members of a secretive mountain commune in Bulgaria are found dead at two separate locations a week apart, and nobody can agree on whether it was murder, suicide, or something far worse.PRINT VERSION: https://weirddarkness.com/petrohan/WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

What if the secret to building a thriving business wasn't an MBA, a venture capital check, or even a business plan — but simply the courage to say yes before you're ready? Today's guest is Eri Lozdjan, founder of Maven Lane, a premium direct-to-consumer furniture brand that's redefining what it means to bring quality, story, and soul to the spaces where we live our lives. Eri's journey is anything but conventional. He arrived in the United States from Bulgaria at age five, speaking no English, with his young mother and nothing but a relentless drive to figure it out. From working HVAC jobs as a teenager, to producing a New York Fashion Week runway show, to building a furniture brand that sells out its first inventory run in weeks — Eri is proof that the most unlikely paths can lead to the most extraordinary destinations. In this episode, Eri pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build something meaningful from the ground up — and why staying true to your vision, even when the money is tempting you otherwise, is the ultimate competitive advantage. Here's a taste of what you'll walk away with: Why saying yes before you're ready is the single greatest career accelerator — and how Eri used it to go from knowing nothing about furniture to building a brand people call life-changing The complacency trap that derails even the most successful entrepreneurs — and the simple mindset shift Eri uses to stay sharp no matter how well things are going How a late-night dream gave Eri the name, the logo, and the soul of Maven Lane — and what it teaches us about trusting our instincts The phone call from a stranger that gave Eri the confidence to go all in — and why that one conversation changed everything about how he saw his business Why "nobody cares" is actually the most liberating career advice you'll ever receive — and how embracing it can unlock a level of ownership and accountability most people never find This is a conversation about grit, creativity, identity, and the quiet power of just getting to tomorrow. You're not going to want to miss it.

Those who hope to honor God and advance Jesus' Kingdom face powerful opposition from spiritual, physical, and psychological enemies. Successful launching and long term fruitfulness depends on recognizing and, in dependence on the Holy Spirit, waging war against those enemies.

Sean McMeekin discusses Molotov's 1940 Berlin visit, noting Stalin's brazen demands for influence in Bulgaria and Turkey caused talks to collapse, prompting Hitler to plan Operation Barbarossa, while Roosevelt began lifting moral embargoes anticipating a German-Soviet clash.1931 STALIN AND BERIA

"Saint Peter was a humble, devout and peace-loving man, unlike his father, Tsar Symeon the Warrior (d. 927), during whose reign there had been perpetual warfare. By contrast, Peter's long reign was peaceful, and notable for the restoration of good relations with Byzantium and with the West. Peter married Maria, the grand-daughter of the Emperor Romanus Lecapenus, who recognized him as basileus (tsar or king), and he obtained independence from Constantinople for the Bulgarian Church with its own Patriarch. He had a great love for Saint John of Rila (19 Oct.), whom he would often consult, and he kept in touch with renowned ascetics of the time like Saint Paul of Latros (15 Dec.). The King acted energetically against the Bogomil heresy, an offshoot of Manicheism, by which some of his people, lacking sufficient instruction in the faith, were being misled. He called a council in order to condemn the heresy and reassert Christian principles. Nevertheless, the infection was to remain active for many years in Bulgaria. Following the invasion of the north of his Kingdom by Prince Svyatoslav of Kiev in 969, Peter abdicated and became a monk. He died in the following year, having consecrated his final days to God alone." (Synaxarion)   A note on the Bogomils: The Bogomils flourished in the Eastern Europe as an organized church from the 10th to the 15th century. In theology they were dualistic, incorporating some Manichean and Gnostic ideas from the Paulicians. They were nationalistic and gained much support through their opposition to Byzantine dominance over the Slavic peoples. They disappeared as an organized body around the fifteenth century, but elements of their beliefs persisted in popular thinking for many centuries afterward.

FILE 4. MOLOTOV IN BERLIN AND THE TRIPARTITE PACT. GUEST AUTHOR SEAN MCMEEKIN. The discussion focuses on Molotov's November 1940 visit to Berlin, where Hitler invited the Soviets to join the Tripartite Pact against the "Anglo-Saxon" powers,. Negotiations collapsed because Stalin demanded unacceptable control over Bulgaria and the Bosphorus, prompting Hitler to proceed with invasion plans while FDR quietly began lifting moral embargoes on the Soviets.1945
