Some might say that the most Danish piece of furniture is the chair. The Swan Chair, the Egg Chair, the Wishbone chair. They're all international design classics. You can buy a poster with 100 of the top Danish chairs, and if you go to Designmuseum Danmark there is a hall of chairs you can walk through, the display cases stacked three high. Chairs, chairs, everywhere. But I think the most Danish piece of furniture is the table. It is where traditional Danish cuisine is enjoyed, and sitting around the table, and sitting and sitting and sitting there for hours after a long meal, is where hygge reigns and people are included – or excluded, as the case may be. A dinner invitation in Denmark A dinner invitation to someone's home is an honor in Denmark, and people often dress better for it than they might dress for work. Ladies put on a pretty ruffled blouse, men might wear a suit jacket or at least a shirt with buttons. And everyone arrives precisely on time. There's no such thing as fashionably late in Denmark; that's not the Danish dinner party customs. For a dinner party like this, the host or hostess will set an elaborate table. There will be cloth napkins in napkin rings, probably some candles, maybe a few carefully chosen flowers as a centerpiece, not so many that you can't see the person on the other side of the table. And there will be different glasses for different drinks. Water glasses, wine glasses, and often tiny little glasses for toasting with aquavit. Setting a beautiful table is a Danish art form. Bring out the Royal Copenhagen dishes Dinner parties are usually a very good time to bring out the Royal Copenhagen dishes. You can't talk about Danish tables without talking about Royal Copenhagen, that blue and white porcelain first produced in 1775.  At the time, porcelain was a real marvel. It's hard to believe now, we're all so used to looking at antique shops full of unwanted dishes and kitchy porcelain figurines, but at the time, porcelain was the stuff of kings.  If you think Royal Copenhagen porcelain is just for tourists and ladies of a certain age, think again. It is hugely popular among young people. I work part time in a shop and I sell a lot of Royal Copenhagen porcelain to women in their 20s. Two great business decisions from Royal Copenhagen That's because of two great business decisions. First of all, Royal Copenhagen, which is now owned by a Finnish company, keeps updating its patterns. The hand-painted dishes you buy now are not the hand-painted dishes grandma used to have with their little bitty lacy patterns, although you can still buy those if you want them.  But the most popular patterns now are bigger and bolder, still in the same cobalt blue. And you can put them in the dishwasher. Breakage guarantee means you actually use your dishes Secondly, in a strategy that should be studied by marketing students, they have a breakage guarantee. If a piece of your fancy porcelain breaks within two years of purchase, you get a new one for free. This is to encourage people to actually eat off their plates, and use their coffee cups for coffee, instead of stashing them in a glass cupboard where people will look at them and dust them but never use them. If you're Danish and are welcoming a new colleague to the country, or maybe the international spouse of a Danish friend, a piece of Royal Copenhagen to start their collection is a nice gift. A team of co-workers did this for my housewarming when I first got here. I still have it.

We have noticed over the years that we can throw details of current affairs at Chris Quintana and he never ducks nor flinches. And so shall it be as Mary welcomes back Chris to talk about so many things. What does it mean to be “rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic?” Focusing on silly plastic lounge chairs instead of lifeboats? We will ask him about that, along with what exactly Don Lemon was thinking he would encounter when he entered that church; what the protestors think it means to use a concealed carry for running toward trouble; and why Minnesota? We ask Chris what that first amendment means to these peculiar circumstances. We also look at the church’s level of discernment when it comes to charismatic excesses as they relate to the Bethel/Shawn Bolz big tale of gullibility. Also: with another Super Bowl comes another round of “He Gets Us” adverts; and finally, the dreaded mid terms. Are there ever any real winners in any given election cycle? What are we hoping for vs what we will likely get? Count on Pastor Chris to have more than one complete thought on pretty much anything.

Good news, bad news, and absolutely unhinged funny news — it's all packed into today's funny podcast, and somehow nobody got punched in the face (statistically speaking).According to actual science (which we barely trust but love anyway), February is the safest month for your face. Cold weather means fewer bar fights, fewer parking lot brawls, and fewer reasons to square up with a stranger named Kyle. Meanwhile, May and July are basically sponsored by fists, fireworks, and poor decision-making. So congratulations — your nose survives another day.But don't relax too much. While punches are down, chair-related violence is UP. The crew breaks down a wild story out of Australia where a guy gets tossed from a strip club, grabs a restaurant chair, and absolutely demolishes his own friend instead of the bouncer. Olympic-level accuracy. Zero situational awareness. Internet hall-of-fame stuff.Then things take a medical turn. Doctors in France discover a World War I artillery shell inside a patient's body, forcing a hospital evacuation and a bomb squad call. No, that is not a typo. Yes, this happened recently. And yes, that man will probably never be trusted around antiques again.As if that wasn't enough, we meet Skip — a real human who voluntarily locked himself in one room for an entire year to “reset his life.” He's livestreaming 24/7, learning Spanish, trying to do one pull-up, and battling YouTube ads like the rest of us. The Rizz Show actually talks to him LIVE, creating the first-ever “live-on-live-on-radio” situation that no one asked for but everyone enjoyed.We also spiral into prostate exams, doctor awkwardness, the terror of chaperones named Gail, and why medical ceiling art is criminally underrated. It's health talk, but make it deeply uncomfortable.This funny podcast delivers daily humor, weird news, accidental science, and stories that start normal and end with someone saying “WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?” If you like comedy podcasts that feel like a group chat escaped into a studio — welcome home.This is The Rizzuto Show doing what it does best: talking about nonsense like it matters, and somehow making it worse.Australian man is hit with flying chair thrown by his friend outside strip clubFrenchman hospitalized after inserting WWI munition up his rearMan Has Locked Himself in a Room for 365 Days to Improve His Health — and Is Now Livestreaming His 'Isolation Year' 24/7See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I share how unexpectedly energized I've been by diving into TikTok for the first time, using it as a creative outlet for design inspiration, trend commentary, and playful content creation, before answering a listener's question about whether French bistro–style X-back dining chairs are a fad (they're not—I love them and consider them a timeless, practical choice, especially for families). I then pivot to pop culture and unpack my long-anticipated but ultimately disappointing experience watching Netflix's Secret Mall Apartment, a documentary about artists secretly building a hidden space inside a Rhode Island mall; while I was fascinated by the premise and the broader ideas around reclaiming unused space, I felt misled by the title, underwhelmed by the focus on artistic philosophy over logistics, and unconvinced by staged reenactments—making it a watch I don't regret, but definitely won't revisit.

The National Iwi Chairs Forum has unanimously backed a High Court challenge from Hauraki iwi Ngāti Manuhiri against the Governments Marine and Coastal Area Act passed last year. The Act makes it harder for Māori groups to win customary title; a move the government says restores the legislation to its "original intent". The forum is meeting at Waitangi this week and will tomorrow meet with Prime Minister Christopher Luxon. Māori News journalist Pokere Paewai spoke to Lisa Owen from Waitangi.

In this special Hoopsville episode, Dave McHugh chats with both NCAA Division III National Committee Chairs with six weeks left to go in the regular season. Conversation includes reaction to the first year of NPI and expectations moving forward, the joint championships on the men's side and impact of both tournaments in DIII, and officiating especially in the national tournaments. This is the first of several conversations we will have with the national chairs this season and was designed to be one that set the base for future, more in-depth, conversations. If you have a question you would like answered by either chair the next time we interview them, be sure to email hoopsville@d3sports.com. The committee chairs are Cam Full, Athletics Director at St. Norbert, for the men and Kristin Hughes, Athletics Director at Smith, for the women.

Trump didn't just give a speech at Davos — he blew up the board. Within minutes of his remarks, EU leaders paused their own trade deal, called an emergency meeting, and began scrambling to respond to what may become one of the most iconic geopolitical moments of this era: empty chairs behind President Trump as he unveiled his proposed Board of Peace. After $300+ billion in U.S. taxpayer money spent defending Europe, Trump put a simple question to the world:

A hundred episodes later, the energy feels different, in the best way. We unpack a year that stretched us and grounded us: restaurant openings that set a new bar for Bentonville, a brewery moving in next door to the new campus, and community events that turned goodwill into real impact. Along the way we laugh through the chaos, Bobby's empty chair, a fire alarm mid-haircut, and a not-so-secret “VIP stash” moment; because the inside jokes only work when the community outside the studio is growing with us.Food shaped the year's rhythm. Compton delivered big-city polish with local soul, Mezzaluna continued to shine, and Great Harvest reminded us how far courage can go when first-time guests bring passion and pastry. We spotlight expansions at MJ's and Peddler's Pub, and look ahead with Flyway Brewery coming just a stone's throw from our front door. It's a sign of a city maturing: better rooms, deeper menus, and owners who treat hospitality like craft. We talk frankly about location challenges, closures that still sting, and the lessons they leave behind for builders and operators.Bourbon kept the stories flowing. From special-pick Eagle Rare to a Weller full proof that sparked a legendary cabinet caper, we relive the sips that earned reverence and the blends that belong in the penalty box. Those pours became rituals: reasons to gather, reflect, and plan the next road trip to the bourbon trail. Gentsgiving hit a new peak, powered by generous people and tight logistics, and proved that humor, clarity, and heart can move a room to give more than they planned.We also get personal. A Razorback-red watch gifted to a dad in a tough year, kids dropping by for ice cream and causes, and a cohost determined to show up for every recording in 2026. That's the fuel for season three: add Jim to the regular lineup, film on-site at local institutions, and keep telling stories where Bentonville, bourbon, and business meet. If you're new here, welcome to the table.

Leadership inside a professional community rarely looks like leadership on an organizational chart. It's quieter, more relational, shaped by volunteers who balance full workloads with the desire to support their peers. In this episode, recorded live at EACUBO 2025, Howard Teibel talks with Romayne Botti and Sara Thorndike about the transition from one chair to the next and what it reveals about how the association continues to adapt.Romayne describes a period marked by post-pandemic uncertainty: members juggling expanded responsibilities, vacancies that never got refilled, and a growing appetite for learning that happens in shorter bursts rather than at multi-day workshops. Sara reflects on the importance of saying yes—and the equally important discipline of saying no—while recognizing how opportunities inside the association helped her find her footing as a leader. Both speak candidly about the connections they've built through EACUBO, the decisions that have reshaped how professional development is delivered, and the need for flexibility as the industry recalibrates.Howard guides the conversation toward the deeper value of this work: the ability to learn from peers, to test leadership instincts in a supportive environment, and to experience the kind of candor that is often hard to find inside one's own institution. The result is a conversation about continuity and change, and about the sustained effort required to steward a community through evolving expectations while staying rooted in its purpose.

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PPM PATREON TO HEAR "MUZAK CHAIRS... II" TODAY IN ITS ENTIRETY:patreon.com/ParaPowerMappingSPOILER WARNINGS FOR SEASON I OF THE CHAIR COMPANY:Klonny's egregious, no stone unturned effort to convince his Mom that Tim Robinson's recent, workplace conspira-comedy is a massive cipher that, with the proper decrypting guidance of the true noid savant, reveals the deep political history of Les Wexner's personal fiefdom outside Columbus, Ohio, the bougie Shangri-La slash organized criminal company town of New Albany, and Epstein's pivotal role in its development. Among many other sus Ohio and Wexner parallels.Only music is the "Red Ball Market Global" hold music. Do not sue me, Fisher Robay retail development big boss Jeff Levjman (we know who you are... And more importantly, who you're supposed to represent).°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°Please support the show by subscribing to the Premium Feed here on Patreon. PPM is entirely listener funded, strictly zero sponsorships or ad space, and I would like to keep it that way, guard my independence and autonomy like some precious secret, take them to the grave. I do need to survive and make enough moolah to invest back in the show, though (there's a lot of improvements that I would like to make on the microphone, studio, and fidelity fronts, not to mention get myself outfitted to produce mini-docs and wade into the 'Tube game). At present, approx 650 of you are subscribed to one of the paid membership tiers, allowing me to make sheer subsistence wages. There are an additional 1400 plus who follow the show on Patreon but aren't currently subbed. If even half of you folks who haven't yet pulled the trigger were to be enticed and joined, it would be a huge boost and would not only ease financial burdens for me but would make it a helluva lot easier for me to take some new strides in presenting you with even more polished, professional material week in and out. Food for thought.Thanks so much for tuning in and sharing PPM around, either way. I'm in your debt.

SUBSCRIBE TO ACCESS "MUZAK CHAIRS II" IN ITS MIND-BOGGLING ENTIRETY!SPOILER WARNINGS FOR SEASON I OF THE CHAIR COMPANY:File this one under:Fisher Roby head honcho Jeff Levjman and music A&R scammer Stacy Crystals being clear substitutes for Jeff Epstein & Leslie Wexner, down to nominative symmetries. Jeff Levjman having an Ashkenazic Yiddish name; Stacy Crystals (immensely valuable jewels) = Leslie Wexner (Wexner derived from "weksler", which means "moneychanger" or "banker"). Under the Silver Lake similarities in Stacy Crystals' schemes. "Just to see Mickey. We had a special pass to cut the kids" -> evoking Aquino's Tinkerbell pics, Maxwell w/ Donald Duck doing kids charity work in the UK, Epstein and Piglet, etc... An unexplained "Mighty Mouse" codeword or nickname in a sus email Epstein sent between two of his Gmail accounts. The Chair Co. sequence where Ron ends up at Asher's house in back-to-back scenes (one dream, one corporeal) after falling unconscious while chasing after Baby, who he learns is actually named Minnie Mouse and belongs to this discomfiting dude Asher, only to later discover that Ron has inadvertently returned the dog to its abusive owner... A scene with a jumpscare inside Asher's shed with a "brand new shape" glowing in some light array on the ground that evokes Wexner and his Dybbuk, "the churning", shpilkes, etc. Jeff Levjman's stag night in Sedona with Danny Donovan et al clearly seeming like a riff on Epstein's ties to Santa Fe and Zorro Dude Ranch. Stacy Crystals' bilking of the bourgeoisie built upon the unfulfilling alienation of capitalism which also smacks of the fantasies that Epstein curated for his associates...Dalton School impropriety allegations, pimp coats, Donald Barr. Noam Chomsky rec letters. Epstein talking up how his rep has increased since #MeToo, self-styling as a cancellation consultant over email with Joi Ito. Lawrence Krauss. Ron's theory that Tecca is smuggling poppy stalks and thebaine into the country in voids where the chair appendices are supposed to go evoking a whole host of Iran-Contra connections involving Wexner, Epstein, Delaware, and Ohio. Summit Aviation, Ohioan Cessna dealers, DuPonts, a crash in Nicaragua. Steve Hoffenberg. Epstein's ties to Adnan Khashoggi, Douglas Leese, and Stan Pottinger. The Arthur Shapiro Contract Hit in Columbus. Southern Air Transport - a CIA proprietary airline that was once co-owned by the same shell company that owned Airs America & Asia and which was heavily involved in Iran-Contra drugs-for-guns smuggling. Epstein and Wexner's role in its relocation to Rickenbacker in Columbus. All of this evoking the possible Hungarian connection and Tecca's thebaine. Oliver North. Felix Rodriguez. Donald Gregg. Bush. Another Cessna shot down by Sandinistas, this time Southern Air's (which would relocate to Ohio and handle The Limited's cargo in a few years). The Arthur Shapiro Murder File and Wexner, DeBartolo, Shapiro's law firm partners, city council president Jerry Hammond, the Major Chord Jazz Club, Jack Kessler, Frank Walsh, DeBartolo, and the Genovese-LaRocca Pittsburgh Crime Fam appearing all over it. MAST Industries, Marty Trust, and Sri Lankan textile slave labor. Gov. Voinovich. Local journo Bob Fitrakis's various exposes. Actual sexual blackmail appearing in Chair Co. Episode 5, the insane True Detective esque oner at Oliver Probblo's apartment, where Ron is forced to kiss a woman on camera after walking in on an affair. The bugs. PROMIS. Palantir. Carbyne/Reporty. Actual Ohioan pharma companies that may be inspirations for Brucell. The Delaware City officer that chases Ron down during the '50s Cop Hop at City Hall possibly alluding to Wexner's influence and off-duty employment of a racist-af policeman from Gahanna, Franklin Co. Sheriff Deputies, and an ex SpecOps guy. Major comparisons between the ecological greenwashing of Fisher Robay and Wexner/Kessler's New Albany Company. New Urbanism. And much much more.FULL NOTES ON PATREON

The Prime Minister has told a select committee he is aware of the pressure farmers are facing because of the government's plan to reimpose inheritance tax on them. However, despite close questioning from his own MPs, he made no commitment to change. Sir Kier Starmer was in front of the Liaison Committee which is made up of all the Chairs of the House of Commons Select Committees, who head up investigations into government departments. The countryside charity the CPRE, says it's concerned that most new housing is being built on green-field sites. It fears the government will create urban sprawl as it tries to fulfil its manifesto pledge to build 1.5 million new homes over the course of the next parliament.All week on Farming Today we're talking about the rural heritage buildings that make up our countryside, everything from old farm barns to country mansions. All of these buildings will need maintenance and repair, but there's only one centre in the UK teaching NVQ Level 3 qualifications, in Heritage Construction skills. We visit the Tywi Centre in Carmarthenshire,.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: I handed in my resignation this past Monday. During the conversation, my manager confided in me that this coming Wednesday, 25% of the workforce is being laid off. For context, this is the second round of layoffs. The first round happened a year ago and was a disaster. It was announced via an internal video the night before, but the CEO forgot to mention that the affected employees had already been notified privately. This caused mass panic; thinking they were next, many experienced engineers immediately brushed up their resumes and jumped ship voluntarily. Even my skip-level manager was in the dark. Shortly after that chaos, we were acquired by an American Private Equity firm. Morale has been at an all-time low ever since, and the writing has been on the wall all year. Now I am in the awkward position of serving my three-month notice period while walking through the ruins of my company. I am the “lucky one” who quit voluntarily two days before the hammer dropped to join a different company for a massive raise and promotion, while my colleagues are about to lose their jobs. How do I navigate the next 90 days? How do I interact with the survivors who are likely furious and overworked, knowing I'm already checking out? Sincerely, Rearranging Deckchairs on the Titanic Hello! I have a bad manager, like really bad. She gets the whole team together to say “so and so is getting laid off tomorrow, or in a month, don't say anything”. She openly shares employee compensation in 1-1's, gossips about her boss and team members and takes feedback as personal attacks. Would you believe me if I said that no one trusts her? What should I do? I want to contact HR but I have never talked to HR before in my career. I know I can't tell her because engineers who have offered feedback on team dynamics, or general professionalism, get yelled in 1-1's. Is this something worth taking to HR or do I just live with it until… I get a new job? If I do say something what do I say? Do I bring up the distrust she has created amongst the team or do I keep it to the poor judgement and unprofessionalism? Do you want to write the letter for me? Yes!? Thanks!

This is an interview on my show (formerly titled "2 Chairs & A Microphone") I did a while back with Rob about his amazing career, his life and the movie he made with his son Nick, “Being Charlie. “ Rob was so proud and excited to have made this film with his son. Rob was a great artist, and more importantly, a great human being. A true social activist, he loved people and cared deeply about mankind. He was a tireless spokesperson for the downtrodden and made huge contributions to better the world. He is going to be sorely missed. RIP.

The time has finally come for episode 258 of NEW RELEASE … so of course Ashley and Drew are talking Stranger Things. We're back, baby. » Fast Forward » to (26:30) if you don't care about Plur1bus or Chairs or LA or Jay/George or Austin Butler. We had a lot to catch up on before the main event. However, once we're in the upside down, we're there to stay. We go deep on what the show means to us and whether an emotional payoff that's been almost 10 years in the making is likely to come. Oooof, we're only halfway through the final season, but already we got the life changing events of episode 4. Join us till the end.

Children's Stories with Ms. Rebecca: Folding Chairs by First Presbyterian Church San Antonio

Send us a textThe night starts with a pour that looks like burnished copper and tastes like old-world craft: a Belgian imperial Christmas ale with caramel, marzipan, peach, and that signature Belgian yeast bite at 12% ABV. We talk through why it works—fermentation-driven spice, a dry finish that reins in sweetness, and the way a tulip glass unlocks aroma—before pulling back the curtain on our plan to bring cameras into the mix. Chairs were assembled, cables wrangled, and we share how we'll keep the vibe loose while making the show easier to watch and navigate.Then the tone shifts—first to a cringe-funny story about texting the wrong Greg and showing up to the wrong house for the game, then to a somber neighborhood headline about a resident found deceased and a trail of theft that followed. It's raw, unsettling, and it sparks an honest look at community responsibility and how quickly rumors snowball. We don't linger in the heavy forever; a volley of dad jokes and a spicy “would you” segment snaps us back to levity, the kind that makes winter nights feel human.Round two in the glasses is a different beast: an imperial stout loaded with maple, almond, and amburana wood chips. Black as midnight, thick on the pour, and smoky-sweet on the palate, it feels tailor-made for a snowy campfire. We compare notes on temperature, glass vs can, and why amburana leans into warm wood, baking spice, and cigar-box aromas. Untappd loves it; we call it a shareable sipper. Along the way we hit beer value, small-batch hunting, WhirlyBall as unexpectedly great team building, and the vanishing Christmas bonus. If you like winter beer reviews, small-town stories, and a few unruly laughs, this one's for you.Enjoy the ride, tell us which beer wins your night—Belgian spice or imperial smoke—and tap follow. Share the show with a friend who loves big winter beers, and drop a quick rating or review to help more listeners find us.Support the showwww.anotherreasontodrink.com

For fourteen years, one family has lived with a presence that refuses to be left behind. It started when his wife worked in a funeral home—strange shadows, invisible footsteps, the sense of being watched. But marriage didn't end the activity. It accelerated it. Wherever they moved, whatever city, whatever house… it came with them. Doors open on their own. Chairs are rearranged before dawn. Children refuse to sleep in their rooms. A dark figure appears in hallways, inches from their faces, tilting its head as if studying them. In photographs, a black mass stands beside newborn babies. In the dead of night, something sits on the bed, presses down the mattress, and touches her with hands that aren't there.
