Dinosaurs. Lasers. Futuristic armour. Evil aliens. What more could you possibly want?This week on The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow, Dangerous Dave heads back to 1988 to celebrate one of the most gloriously bonkers toy lines of the decade — Dino-Riders!We begin with What Happened Way Back When?, revisiting the music, movies and television of 1988, including Guns N' Roses, Belinda Carlisle, Die Hard, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Beetlejuice, Red Dwarf and The Wonder Years. Then Retro Headlines remembers some of the major stories making news in Britain and America.
Gaius and Germanicus: On a rainy late summer night in 92 AD Londinium, the hosts convene in their newly expanded wine bar by the River Thames, built so retired centurions of the eighth legion—such as Strabo, who served twenty-seven years—can rest and put their feet up. Gaius apologizes for his tardiness, delayed by a commercial dispute with a Gaulishmerchant demanding extra money for a shipment of Greek wine brought across the choppy English Channel; a poor bargainer, Gaius resolves to pay whatever it takes to secure the wine for the centurions by Sunday, and shares his day planting fragrant sumacs and tall purple-flowered ironweeds as pollinators. From this first-century frame, the hosts turn to the collapse of American strategy: the Persian Empire (modern Iran) no longer fears the American "imperator," as shown by Iran inviting Iraq—a country generously supported by the United States for years—to ship at least five backed-up tankers of oil through the Strait of Hormuzuntouched, and by Pakistani army chief General Munir's travel to Tehran to meet the IRGC. Russia and China are in constant communication with Iran; Germanicus traces Russia's interest to the nineteenth century, the 1908 spheres-of-influence division, and the 1942 invasion, arguing the American "feckless war" has stitched the Eurasian continent together and frozen the US out. Where the post-9/11 US "bestrode the Middle East like a colossus" and Iran sought breathing room through the JCPOA, now Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan court Tehran, the Gulf states seek accommodations in the new order, and the US has been reduced to nothing more than Israel's direct defender.

The bail hearing of a Pretoria man accused of the murder of his wife in front of their two children, has taken an emotional turn after the State presented social media posts allegedly written by one of the children following the death of their mother. The woman was allegedly shot and killed in March this year her home in Valhalla, Centurion. The State says the posts highlight the trauma suffered by the children. The Pretoria Magistrates' Court has postponed the matter to 27 August to rule on whether further evidence, including alleged recordings of threats, can be played in court. Nonhlanhla Ntshingila reports.

Luke 7:1-9 New International Version The Faith of the Centurion 7 When Jesus had finished saying all this to the people who were listening, he entered Capernaum. 2 There a centurion’s servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5 because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” 6 So Jesus went with them. He was not far from the house when the centurion sent friends to say to him: “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. 7 That is why I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. But say the word, and my servant will be healed. 8 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” 9 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Annual subscribers receive a free Points Path Alerts subscription OR a 30% discount on Points Path Pro. Airline lounge access keeps getting more expensive—and Ed and Richard are wondering who is actually paying these prices. This week on Miles To Go, they break down American Airlines' latest Admirals Club changes, including higher membership prices and a revamped Executive Card. With individual lounge membership now costing hundreds of dollars and family access climbing even higher, the guys debate whether the airline credit card is now the only logical way to buy into the ecosystem. That leads to a broader discussion about whether airport lounges deserve as much weight as they get when travelers evaluate premium credit cards. Crowding, long lines, limited space, and inconsistent food all make Ed question how much real value lounge access adds. Richard also shares a surprise about JetBlue Mint: even on an expensive transcontinental Mint ticket, lounge access still isn't included unless you're flying transatlantic. Then the conversation shifts to a brand-new luxury resort cancellation controversy, where a well-known YouTuber arrived only to find his reservation had been canceled at the last minute. Finally, Richard gives an update on his Frontier GoWild Pass—and admits that, despite owning it, he still hasn't actually managed to use it.

Using the Bible and Roman sources, Pastor teaches us about Centurions. In Sunday's message we met the Centurion, Cornelius. (See teaching here https://youtu.be/yjK_CB20Fk0) Acts 10:1-2 Cornelius was a centurion in the Italian Regiment. What we know about Centurions Backbone of the Roman Army Tested and dependable leaders Commanded 80-100 soldiers - 6 Centurions to a Cohort (600) and 10 Cohorts to a Legion (6000) Mentioned more that 20 times in the New Testament - Luke 7:1-10, Matthew 8:5-13, Matthew 27:54, Mark 15:39, Luke 23:47, Acts 10:1-7, Acts 21:32, Acts 22:25-29, Acts 23:17, Acts 23:23, Acts 24:23, Acts 27:1ff Viewed in very positive terms in the New Testament - Pastor speculates that these centurions shared their stories with each other and that knowing the stories influenced their actions toward believers Pastor closes with the proclamation of the centurion at the foot of Jesus' cross who said as Jesus died, "Surely he was the Son of God!"

Day 1 of our story Today's story takes place in Caesarea - Acts 10:1-8. Cornelius, a Roman soldier, a Centurion, lives there. (Pastor shares pictures of this city, still visible today!) Cornelius was one who worshiped the God of Israel but was not a full convert. He and his family were devout and God-fearing. Then he receives a vision of an angel. The angel tells him to bring a man from Joppa named Simon known as Peter. We see Cornelius respond immediately to what the angel told him to do. Day 2 Story moves location to Joppa where Cornelius' servant and one of his soldiers are headed - Acts 10:9-23a. Meanwhile, Peter goes up on the roof of the house he is at and goes into a trance and sees the heavens open and a sheet with all kinds of 4-footed animals, reptiles and birds. (Unclean animals according to the Torah) Then a voice tells him to eat them, but Peter says, I've never eaten anything impure or unclean. I've obeyed the Torah! The response from heaven, three times was, "Do not call anything pure that God has made clean." And the sheet was taken back into heaven. While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the vision, the men Cornelius sent found him. The Spirit tells Peter to go downstairs to the men that were sent. They tell Peter about the vision Cornelius had seen and Peter invites them in. Day 3 Now our story goes on the road- Act 10:23b. Peter and some witness head, with Cornelius' servant and soldier, to Caesarea. Day 4 They arrive in Caesarea - Acts 10:24-48. (Pastor shares more pics of the area) Cornelius has a crowd of people gathered at his home to hear Peter when he arrives. Peter knows he's on God's mission: "You are aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with or visit a Gentile. But God has shown me I should not call anyone impure or unclean." Cornelius retells his vision and says now they are in the presence of God to hear everything Peter has to tell them. Peter responds that he now realizes how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation those who know the Good News of Jesus Christ, Lord of ALL. He recounts the Gospel story of Jesus, He tells of the Savior's Good News and all that believe in Him receive forgiveness of sins through His name. Then suddenly the Holy Spirit fell on all of them, including the Gentiles. They were baptized in Jesus' name and ask Peter to say for a few more days. What do we learn from this story? Then + Now God's Agenda - God sets the agenda for His people, for individuals and for human history. God is fulfilling the New Covenant - That the day would come when the NATIONS would come to God. These are new covenant times! God Shows No Partiality - it is easy to be in our own groups and only see people like us and avoid people who don't fit our mold. But Jesus died for ALL. We are called to reach the world - therefore no partiality - God wants them all. Jesus is LORD - He is the New Covenant. Will we acknowledge His Lordship? He is the judge of the living and the dead. He is the Messiah, the Savior of the Nations, the Anointed Son of God who gave His life for all, rose, ascended and is coming back. Spirit Guided Life - God is not in a box, He sets the agenda, not us. Everything needs to be the way He deems it! Pastor closes with the questions: Are you listening to God's Agenda for your life? Do Jesus and the Scriptures inform your daily living and actions? Do you sense and heed the Holy Spirit's promptings? This week's READING ASSIGNMENT: Acts chapter 10 - 11. Now What?

This Week on the Toy Power Podcast; even though we are Celebrating our 10th Year of Podcasting; we unfortunately exhausted all our energy on the Previous SDCC Reveals & Announcements Ep. So we are giving you a ReIssue episode instead from the Vault. (Originally Posted as Ep #143 - from October 2019). Original blurb: It’s a very special ep as we’re joined by not one, but two of favourite guests in Davey Damaged and Scotty so that’s right – it’s a Homer episode! Trent takes us through a vintage retrospective look at The Addams family by Playmates. Perfectly timed for Halloween, we wonder what could have been with this short-lived line and look to the future of the franchise as a new movie approaches. What characters didn’t get made, which ones make the camera glow and where does MC Hammer fit into it all? We make the jump to Show and Tell as Davey tries to trump us all with a purchase so large, we doubt it will actually fit in his toy room! There’s some DC, MOTU and even Final Fantasy options to choose from. Frank gives a lovely tribute showing that sometimes, the value of a toy; lays in more than its sticker price. Then it’s Quiz time and with Davey onboard, anything is possible. To say this episode goes off the rails is putting it mildly – but on the plus side we learnt that Trent can’t hold his liquor, Ben thinks photos record sound, Space Jam was an event and Rick Moranis is Trent’s muse. So hold on for this crazy ride that also serves as a farewell for one of the team…Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this inspiring episode of the Pearls of Wisdom Jewelry Podcast, Guy sits down with Nathan Regan, owner of Burnell's Fine Jewelry & Design in Wichita, Kansas. Founded in 1979 by Jerry Burnell, the store has evolved from a respected local jeweler into an award-winning retail powerhouse under Nathan's leadership. After starting as a bench jeweler in 2006 and later becoming a partner, Nathan eventually acquired full ownership and has continued pushing the business to new heights. Burnell's Fine Jewelry & Design The conversation dives into Burnell's remarkable achievement of winning the 2025 William (Wag) Wagner Business Excellence Award, a recognition given through the Edge Retail Academy program for exceptional performance, growth, and leadership. Nathan shares how years of deliberate planning, coaching, and data-driven decision-making helped the store achieve extraordinary results, including significant increases in sales and profitability. He also discusses the importance of mentorship and support from industry organizations such as IJO, RJO, JCK, and Centurion. One of the most compelling parts of the episode is Nathan's honest perspective on the natural vs. lab-grown diamond conversation. Rather than treating jewelry as a commodity, Burnell's focuses on storytelling, emotional connection, and creating unforgettable customer experiences. Nathan introduces his powerful "Platinum Rule": Treat people the way you want them to treat your mother, a philosophy that has become the foundation of the store's culture and long-term customer loyalty. This episode is packed with real-world retail insights, leadership lessons, and encouragement for every jeweler and business owner. If you're looking for practical strategies and a refreshing reminder that kindness, authenticity, and continuous improvement can drive extraordinary success, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Tune in and discover how Burnell's is proving that great businesses are built one meaningful customer experience at a time!

Die Stad Tshwane is bekommerd oor die skerp styging in inhegtenisnemings vir dronkbestuur. Polisie-woordvoerder Puleng Motholo sê meer as 58 motoriste is die naweek aangekeer vir bestuur onder die invloed van alkohol tydens padveiligheidsoperasies in Centurion, Mamelodi, Mabopane, Bronkhorstspruit, Sinoville en Pretoria-Noord. Sy sê dit beklemtoon 'n blatante minagting van die wet deur mense wat min omgee vir padveiligheid en die katastrofiese gevolge wat hulle roekelose gedrag inhou:

Lesley Groff, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime assistant, was questioned by House Oversight lawmakers about Epstein's use of American Express to book travel for multiple women or girls. CBS reported that Epstein used Amex's Centurion travel service and a Black Card to arrange hundreds of itineraries, many involving women or girls from Eastern Europe, and that Groff was a key point of contact in those bookings. Groff told lawmakers she did not believe she ever arranged travel for anyone under 18 and said she understood the women to be “traveling assistants” who worked for Epstein. She also denied knowing that any of the travel was connected to sexual activity involving Epstein or anyone in his network.Lawmakers pressed Groff on records that appeared to show “decoy flights,” including a 2016 email where she asked Amex to hold a fake Rome-to-London itinerary for a redacted person who would actually be traveling to Miami to see Epstein. Groff said the woman wanted to hide the real trip from her parents, not obtain a visa, while her attorney pushed back on the idea that the booking was visa-related. In another 2012 exchange, an Amex employee flagged that holding a refundable itinerary for visa purposes was against company policy, but Groff later told lawmakers she was simply arranging a ticket and hotel reservation for someone who needed a visa. American Express declined to comment on Groff's testimony, but previously said it regretted having Epstein as a customer and terminated his account after federal charges were filed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein's longtime assistant grilled by U.S. lawmakers over Amex travel booked for women or girls - CBS News
Every conversion is a supernatural event, but some conversions are accompanied by specific supernatural phenomena. The conversion of Cornelius the Centurion in Acts 10 is one of those. We see Cornelius having visions and seeing angels, and Peter the apostle falling into a trance and receiving divine instructions on how to reach Cornelius with the gospel. This story challenges our prejudices about people different from us and also about how God works in His world. The big question is: is God doing anything like this today? As well as commenting on Acts 10, David shares supernatural stories from the Middle East and from England that demonstrate that God is still moving in supernatural ways to encounter ordinary people with His loving presence.

Mark 15:39: A centurion's confession invites us to consider the beauty and power of the cross, finding in the apostles witness a multifaceted depiction of God's saving work.

Gospel Reading: Matthew 8:5-13At that time, as Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, beseeching him and saying, "Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, in terrible distress." And he said to him, "I will come and heal him." But the centurion answered him, "Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes, and to another, 'Come,' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do this,' and he does it." When Jesus heard him, he marveled, and said to those who followed him, "Truly, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such faith. I tell you, many will come from east and west and sit at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness; there men will weep and gnash their teeth." And to the centurion Jesus said, "Go; be it done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed at that very moment.
By Brian McGuire - Like the centurion, we must approach Christ with humility and in faith, acknowledging His authority.

In a sun-drenched Londinium wine bar overlooking the calm Thames, Gaius and Germanicus engage in a spirited debate before an audience of retired centurions from the Eighth Legion. The discussion centers on the "Roman way of war"—characterized by relentless engineering, abundant resources, and the demand for total victory—contrasted against the declining American military reputation. Germanicus identifies seven historical pillars of American power, such as total mobilization and superior technology, which he argues have eroded over the last fifty years. Citing failures in Korea, Vietnam, and more recently in Ukraine and Iran, the speakers suggest that the United States has transitioned from a "redeemer nation" into a state struggling with ineffective, marginal conflicts. The centurions, professional combatants who once fought alongside former gladiators, listen intently as Gaius compares the Roman spirit to the aggressive naval strategies of the Second World War.

We write our futures with what we choose to believe, so let's choose to believe in Jesus and His power to transform our lives. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses centurions—Roman military officers who decided to align their lives with Jesus of Nazareth. These men weren't connected to the Jewish religion, but because of their unlikely faith, God was able to move through them and transform history. Pastor Allen teaches from the books of Matthew, Luke, and Acts to encourage us to be like the centurions: trust in Jesus wholeheartedly, obey boldly, and don't be surprised when God moves in new and unexpected ways.
Gaius & Germanicus debate in the Londinium wine bar, 92 AD. In our gathering, Gaius and Germanicus address the unfolding chaos of the 21st-century empire for you, veteran centurions. The Emperor is increasingly viewed as unfit by the global commentariat, delivering contradictory messages that leave allies and adversaries confused. Germanicusargues the Emperor allowed himself to be led into a failed war in Persia by Mr. Netanyahu, a conflict that lacks strategic objective and risks a consequential defeat. This "ceremonial" military, though dazzling in appearance, mimics the "mini-me" force of Israel, capable only of destroying cities rather than achieving decisive victory. The American public, sensing this failure through the Emperor's erratic social media posts, recognizes the nation is no longer the superpower it once was — as in the Roman tradition, an emperor who loses an army is quickly discarded.
