Full Text of ReadingsSecond Sunday of Advent Lectionary: 5The Saint of the day is Blessed Adolph KolpingBlessed Adolph Kolping's Story The rise of the factory system in 19th-century Germany brought many single men into cities where they faced new challenges to their faith. Father Adolph Kolping began a ministry to them, hoping that they would not be lost to the Catholic faith, as was happening to workers elsewhere in industrialized Europe. Born in the village of Kerpen, Adolph became a shoemaker at an early age because of his family's economic situation. Ordained in 1845, he ministered to young workers in Cologne, establishing a choir, which by 1849 had grown into the Young Workmen's Society. A branch of this began in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1856. Nine years later there were over 400 Gesellenvereine—workman's societies—around the world. Today this group has over 450,000 members in 54 countries across the globe. More commonly called the Kolping Society, it emphasizes the sanctification of family life and the dignity of labor. Father Kolping worked to improve conditions for workers and greatly assisted those in need. He and St. John Bosco in Turin had similar interests in working with young men in big cities. He told his followers, “The needs of the times will teach you what to do.” Father Kolping once said, “The first thing that a person finds in life and the last to which he holds out his hand, and the most precious that he possesses, even if he does not realize it, is family life.” Blessed Adolph Kolping and Blessed John Duns Scotus are buried in Cologne's Minoritenkirche, originally served by the Conventual Franciscans. The Kolping Society's international headquarters are located across from this church. Kolping members journeyed to Rome from Europe, America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania, for Father Kolping's beatification in 1991, the 100th anniversary of Pope Leo XIII's revolutionary encyclical “Rerum Novarum”—“On the Social Order.” Father Kolping's personal witness and apostolate helped prepare for that encyclical. His liturgical feast is celebrated on December 4. Reflection Some people thought that Father Kolping was wasting his time and talents on young working men in industrialized cities. In some countries, the Catholic Church was seen by many workers as the ally of owners and the enemy of workers. Men like Adolph Kolping showed that was not true.

The unsung hero of our show, we learn about Todd's unique experiences, his love for the distinct scent of black powder, and get his take on our fragrance of the day — JusBox's Black Powder. Does he find the edgy scent as rebellious as Kurt Cobain and Nirvana, which the fragrance intriguingly references? We dissect the offbeat notes of "Black Powder," probing how its scent transforms over time. From our favorite craft beers to the bustling cityscape of Seattle, our impressions of the fragrance are peppered with anecdotes, making for an engaging exploration. But we're not just about the fun and games. We tread into debate territory, questioning the use of Kurt Cobain's legacy for commercial interests. Will "Black Powder" make it to our skip, sample, or buy it list? You'll have to listen to find out!Finally, prepare to be transported down memory lane as Ryan and Todd share hilarious and heartwarming tales of their fragrance-filled escapades. From classic favorite scents like Issey Miyake and Kenneth Cole Black, to a cherished gift of Creed Aventus, their repertoire spans both affordable and aspirational.

À la suite de la Première Guerre mondiale, le traité de Versailles, adopté en 1919, impose la démilitarisation de la Rhénanie. Pour vérifier l'effectivité de cette mesure, la région est découpée en trois secteurs, occupées par les armées alliées pour une durée allant de 5 à 15 ans. Les zones concernées se trouvent à l'ouest du Rhin, mais comprennent aussi des têtes de pont sur la rive droite du fleuve. Elles sont centrées sur Cologne, Mayence et Coblence. Mais les militaires chargés de délimiter ces secteurs circulaires, sur la carte, commettent une erreur. En effet, les zones française et américaine auraient dû se toucher, de sorte qu'aucun secteur ne soit laissé en dehors de l'administration militaire alliée. Toutes les apparences d'un État souverain Or, ce n'est pas ce qui se passe. Un étroit couloir, mesurant moins de 800 mètres de large en son point le plus étroit, se trouve libre de toute occupation. Cet étroit corridor, coincé entre les zones française et américaine, va devenir l'État libre du Goulot. On lui donne ce nom en raison de sa forme qui, en effet, rappelle celle du goulot d'une bouteille. C'est le maire de Lorch, la ville la plus importante du territoire, et qui en devient la capitale, qui annonce, par un télégramme aux Alliés, la formation de ce micro État. Il comporte environ 17.000 habitants, qui vivent dans les villes de Lorch et de Caub, et dans plusieurs villages. Le nouveau pays se dote de certains des symboles de la souveraineté. Une nouvelle monnaie est en effet créée, le thaler de l'État libre, qui n'a cours que dans ce petit pays, qui émet aussi des passeports. Mais les Français ne l'entendent pas de cette oreille. Décidés à faire rentrer ces récalcitrants dans le rang, ils isolent le minuscule État. Aussi les vivres entrent-ils par contrebande dans le territoire. L'expérience prend fin en février 1923, à la suite de l'occupation de la Ruhr par les troupes françaises, qui devait contraindrez l'Allemagne à payer les réparations prévues par le traité de Versailles.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - The archbishop of Beijing is visiting Hong Kong this week in a trip that marks a historic first since the Chinese Communist Party severed diplomatic relations with the Vatican 70 years ago. Archbishop Li Shan is the president of the Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association, the state-managed Catholic organization in mainland China controlled by the CCP's United Front Work Department. The Beijing bishop's five-day visit to the Diocese of Hong Kong is at the invitation of Cardinal Stephen Chow, the city's bishop, who has said that he sees Hong Kong as “a bridge Church” with the mainland. Li was ordained archbishop of Beijing in 2007 with the approval of Pope Benedict XVI after being named to the post by Chinese authorities months prior. He was the first bishop to be consecrated in China following the publication of Benedict XVI's 2007 letter to Catholics in China. Earlier this year, Li prayed for the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Holy See and the People's Republic of China “as soon as possible” during a Mass at the diocesan seminary. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256004/beijing-archbishop-becomes-first-to-visit-hong-kong-since-chinese-revolution A court of appeal dismissed all charges of “hate speech” and “ethnic agitation” against Finnish lawmaker Päivi Räsänen on Tuesday in what has been hailed as a victory for free speech. The Finnish member of Parliament had been charged in 2021 after publicly sharing in 2019 her biblical, religious views on marriage as between one man and one woman. Though Räsänen, 63, was unanimously acquitted by a Finnish District Court in 2022, prosecutors appealed her acquittal to the Helsinki Court of Appeal. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256001/hate-speech-charges-dismissed-for-finnish-lawmaker-who-defended-traditional-marriage The president of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), Archbishop Timothy Broglio, on Tuesday called on Israel to pursue negotiations in its war with Hamas terrorists. When asked about Israel's military actions in the Gaza Strip and civilian casualties suffered since the outbreak of the war, Broglio said it is an issue he feels “very strongly about” and said that Israel should “find a way to negotiate.” https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256006/us-catholic-bishops-president-calls-on-israel-to-negotiate-with-hamas Today, the Church celebrates Saint Albert the Great, a Doctor of the Church and the patron saint of scientists. The native German joined the newly formed Order of Preachers (Dominicans) in the early 13th century. He earned a doctorate from the University of Paris and taught theology there and in Cologne, Germany. Albert became known as “Great” because of his intellectual abilities. He was a respected philosopher, scientist, theologian and teacher, and was well-versed in Arabic culture. One of his students, who later became a great friend and built upon his Scholastic method, was Saint Thomas Aquinas. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/st-albert-the-great-656

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Thirty-second Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 493The Saint of the day is Saint Albert the GreatSaint Albert the Great's Story Albert the Great was a 13th-century German Dominican who decisively influenced the Church's stance toward Aristotelian philosophy brought to Europe by the spread of Islam. Students of philosophy know him as the master of Thomas Aquinas. Albert's attempt to understand Aristotle's writings established the climate in which Thomas Aquinas developed his synthesis of Greek wisdom and Christian theology. But Albert deserves recognition on his own merits as a curious, honest, and diligent scholar. He was the eldest son of a powerful and wealthy German lord of military rank. He was educated in the liberal arts. Despite fierce family opposition, he entered the Dominican novitiate. His boundless interests prompted him to write a compendium of all knowledge: natural science, logic, rhetoric, mathematics, astronomy, ethics, economics, politics, and metaphysics. His explanation of learning took 20 years to complete. “Our intention,” he said, “is to make all the aforesaid parts of knowledge intelligible to the Latins.” He achieved his goal while serving as an educator at Paris and Cologne, as Dominican provincial, and even as bishop of Regensburg for a short time. He defended the mendicant orders and preached the Crusade in Germany and Bohemia. Albert, a Doctor of the Church, is the patron of scientists and philosophers. Reflection An information glut faces us Christians today in all branches of learning. One needs only to read current Catholic periodicals to experience the varied reactions to the findings of the social sciences, for example, in regard to Christian institutions, Christian life-styles, and Christian theology. Ultimately, in canonizing Albert, the Church seems to point to his openness to truth, wherever it may be found, as his claim to holiness. His characteristic curiosity prompted Albert to mine deeply for wisdom within a philosophy his Church warmed to with great difficulty.

We cozied up with YSL's MYSLF, Austin Butler's new spray and its familiar, green apple aroma. But that's not all we chatted about. We also wondered about the potential of hypoallergenic fragrances for our friends with allergies and shared our personal experiences with Creed of Aventus. This conversation also led us to revisit our memories of fragrance encounters and the joy of sharing them with others. And in a surprising twist, we dove into the world of video games, drawing interesting parallels between the competitive environment and real-life scenarios. We also reflected on the cost of luxury with the high-priced YSL fragrance. And before we called it a day, we had to investigate the 'Panty Dropper' fragrance to see if it lives up to its bold name. Support the showLeave us a voicemail

Full Text of ReadingsWednesday of the Thirty-first Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 487The Saint of the day is Blessed John Duns ScotusBlessed John Duns Scotus' Story A humble man, John Duns Scotus has been one of the most influential Franciscans through the centuries. Born at Duns in the county of Berwick, Scotland, John was descended from a wealthy farming family. In later years, he was identified as John Duns Scotus to indicate the land of his birth; Scotia is the Latin name for Scotland. John received the habit of the Friars Minor at Dumfries, where his uncle Elias Duns was superior. After novitiate, John studied at Oxford and Paris and was ordained in 1291. More studies in Paris followed until 1297, when he returned to lecture at Oxford and Cambridge. Four years later, he returned to Paris to teach and complete the requirements for the doctorate. In an age when many people adopted whole systems of thought without qualification, John pointed out the richness of the Augustinian-Franciscan tradition, appreciated the wisdom of Aquinas, Aristotle, and the Muslim philosophers—and still managed to be an independent thinker. That quality was proven in 1303, when King Philip the Fair tried to enlist the University of Paris on his side in a dispute with Pope Boniface VIII. John Duns Scotus dissented, and was given three days to leave France. In Scotus's time, some philosophers held that people are basically determined by forces outside themselves. Free will is an illusion, they argued. An ever-practical man, Scotus said that if he started beating someone who denied free will, the person would immediately tell him to stop. But if Scotus didn't really have a free will, how could he stop? John had a knack for finding illustrations his students could remember! After a short stay in Oxford, Scotus returned to Paris, where he received the doctorate in 1305. He continued teaching there and in 1307 so ably defended the Immaculate Conception of Mary that the university officially adopted his position. That same year the minister general assigned him to the Franciscan school in Cologne where John died in 1308. He is buried in the Franciscan church near the famous Cologne cathedral. Drawing on the work of John Duns Scotus, Pope Pius IX solemnly defined the Immaculate Conception of Mary in 1854. John Duns Scotus, the “Subtle Doctor,” was beatified in 1993. Reflection Father Charles Balic, O.F.M., the foremost 20th-century authority on Scotus, has written: “The whole of Scotus's theology is dominated by the notion of love. The characteristic note of this love is its absolute freedom. As love becomes more perfect and intense, freedom becomes more noble and integral both in God and in man” (New Catholic Encyclopedia, Vol. 4, p. 1105). Learn more about John Duns Scotus!

As you might have heard, FC Bayern München went to Dortmund and took their hosts BVB apart...but that's the way the Klassiker seems to go in recent years. Nik and Terry dig into that and other stories, including a tempestuous week for Mainz 05 that ended with a win, Cologne's persisting troubles, coming changes at the top for Werder Bremen and more. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/talking-fussball/support

The question of psychopathy and psychopaths in the workplace is something that we have discussed before on the Brain for Business podcast. Yet it remains a fascinating and worthwhile topic, most particularly when considered in terms of power and leadership outcomes.To explore this further I am delighted to be joined by Dr Iris Kranefeld where we discuss a recent paper published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences.Key highlights include:Position power acts as a trait-relevant cue for psychopathy in leaders.When power is high, psychopathic meanness negatively relates to team performance.Under high power, team performance mediates the relation of meanness and effectiveness.The article discussed in the podcast is available here: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0191886922004214About IrisIris is a graduate of University of Bonn from where she has a PhD in work and organisational psychology. Since July 2023, Iris has been a senior consultant with the Cologne Institute for Management Consulting / Kölner Institut für Managementberatung in Germany. A key focus of Iris' research is the “dark triad” of personality traits, most particularly psychopathy and how it plays out in the workplace.You can find out more about Iris' work at these sites:Researchgate - https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Iris-Kranefeld-2LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/iris-kranefeld/?locale=en_USCologne Institute of Management Consulting - https://www.ki-management.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Ever marveled at the morbid curiosity humans have for things that are described as 'rough'? We dive headfirst into this puzzling phenomenon, using the world of fragrances as our playground. Brace yourself for an audacious review of a scent that left us with less than pleasant memories and felt more like a crash at Space Mountain than a Pirates of the Caribbean ride. We also offer our two scents on Tom Ford's Noir de Noir, exploring its gender-bending attributes and recommending a more manly alternative. Buckle up as we venture into the controversial corners of the fragrance world. We probe into whether there's a market for a Pirates of the Caribbean candle and make a bold promise - we will test Gwyneth Paltrow's scandalous 'This Smells Like My Vagina' fragrance in a future episode. Hold your breath (not literally), as we entertain the idea of an orgasm-inspired fragrance. Don't forget to chime in with your thoughts because we cannot wait to hear them. So, are you ready to spray it up? Keep smelling great and catch you at the next whiff!Support the showLeave us a voicemail

Here it is, the second solo and bilingual episode! This is a short summary of my two marathons (Berlin and Cologne). (The French part starts around 21:20./La section française commence à 21:20 environ.) Listening back to the French version, I think it's kind of funny how much my Quebec accent comes back the more I get agitated bitching about what I didn't like, haha./En réécoutant la version française, mon accent québécois qui revient en force à mesure que je chiâle sur ce que j'ai pas aimé m'a bien fait sourire, haha.BTW, I had the chapters auto-generated, and the chapter descriptions of the French version are in English. No idea why, sorry about that.Enjoy!Twitter - Instagram - Website

Episode Notes Taylor Swift wasn't the only major pop star responsible for a tourism boom this summer. Beyonce's Renaissance Tour helped lift hotel bookings across the U.S. and Europe, writes Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill. O'Neill cites Cardiff, Wales, Cologne, Germany and Houston, Texas, as cities where hotel bookings surged during stops on Beyonce's tour. Hotels in her hometown of Houston generated $18 million in revenue on the nights of her concerts, a 45% jump from the same weekend last year.   However, O'Neill notes some cities — including London, Boston, and Las Vegas — didn't register a noticeable bump. He adds shows on weeknights during the school year were much less likely to drive travel demand.  Next, Airbnb has been accused of violating a temporary restraining order in a New York City building, reports Executive Editor Dennis Schaal.  The owner had placed the building on New York City's so-called banned building list, which blocks short-term rentals.  However, the contempt motion alleges that guests were seen in the apartment on October 17 and that the listing was still on Airbnb. Schaal writes the building owner asked the judge to impose penalties for an alleged violation related to a short-term rental listing. A hearing is scheduled for October 30 in a New York State court.  Finally, prominent airline industry executives will gather for the Skift Aviation Forum in Fort Worth, Texas on November 1. Edward Russell, editor of Skift publication Airline Weekly, lists five topics he's looking forward to discussing at the Forum.   Russell writes that, despite constant warnings about economic downturns, the global airline industry is continuing to make progress in its recovery. While he notes that corporate travel in the U.S. has plateaued in its rebound, international travel has continued to boom. Transatlantic demand set records this summer, and many industry figures expect transpacific to surge as well.

SynopsisOn today's date in 1992, one of the strangest — and some would say most strikingly original — violin concertos of the late 20th century had its premiere performance in Cologne, Germany. It was written by Transylvanian-born Hungarian composer György Ligeti.Ligeti became famous in the West when some of his music appeared in the 1968 Stanley Kubrick film 2001: A Space Odyssey. Kubrick used Ligeti's music to evoke the eerie and empty vastness of outer space. And, in fact, Ligeti was fascinated by the sounds traditional orchestral instruments make when pressed to the extreme limits of their range — their own sonic “outer limits.” There's some of that in Ligeti's 1992 Violin Concerto, plus a dash of the traditionally melancholic Hungarian strain familiar from the music of Ligeti's famous compatriot Béla Bartók. Finally, tossed in for good measure, is Ligeti's puckish fondness for thumbing his nose at life, the universe and traditional concert hall decorum.As if to counterbalance his melancholic strain, or perhaps just express it in a more surprising way, there's a good deal of the clown in Ligeti, who includes a chorus of ocarinas in the score of his Violin Concerto.Music Played in Today's ProgramGyörgy Ligeti (1923-2006) Violin Concerto - Saschko Gavrilov, violin; Ensemble InterContemporain; Pierre Boulez, cond.
