Tea's origins are widely believed to be in China, with the tea plant, Camellia Sinensis, native to the southwest of the country, particularly the Yunnan province. It's an aromatic beverage prepared by pouring hot or boiling water over cured or fresh leaves of Camellia Sinensis. While tea has been initially considered as a “beverage” it is no longer considered just a “beverage” by itself but rather a drink with medicinal value. The speaker will introduce the history, tea manufacturing process, the types of genuine tea varieties, and the distinction between these genuine teas and “non-tea” types. Speaker: Dr. Sampath Walgama Sampath is originally from Sri Lanka (Ceylon), a country famous for the quality teas it produces. He graduated from University of Colombo, Sri Lanka specializing in Environmental Science and pursued his studies at the University of Queensland, Australia to obtain a PhD in Agriculture with a focus in Entomology. He worked at Sri Lanka's Tea Research Institute as an Entomologist, gaining overall knowledge of Tea Science. Sampath migrated to Canada in 2010 to do a Postdoctoral Program at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (Lethbridge). He made Lethbridge home and continued at the Lethbridge College as an agriculture Instructor. He then moved North to Fort Vermilion for a Research Manager position at the Mackenzie Applied Research Association (MARA). He is enthusiastic about tea and despite the fact he doesn't have an opportunity to work on tea, he continues to study, learn and talk about tea because of his passion and enthusiasm.

Welcome to Cryptic Chronicles. Today I am joined by legendary author Jonathan Dyer (links below). In this episode, we're stepping into the violent, shadowy world of Gregory Scarpa Sr.—the Colombo family enforcer known as The Grim Reaper. Scarpa was a man who lived a double life: a ruthless Mafia killer who also served as a longtime FBI informant, blurring the line between crime and justice for nearly three decades. To help unravel this paradox, I'm joined by Jonathan Dyer, author of the new book Greg Scarpa: Legendary Evil, which dives deep into the chilling story of one of organized crime's most dangerous figures and the corruption that shielded him.

As we approach the end of the season, Margaret shifts the focus of her discussions on equanimity from a largely pragmatic perspective to a deeper exploration of its role in Buddhist practice. Drawing on the work of Anne Murphy from the Department of Buddhist Studies in Colombo, Sri Lanka, she introduces us to the concept of the "Ten Kinds of Equanimity" as outlined in the Visuddhimagga by Bhikkhu Buddhaghosa. Each kind offers unique insights into how equanimity can enrich our spiritual journey, helping us embrace both the trials of daily life and the sacredness of our meditative practices. In this episode, listeners are introduced to the first few types of equanimity, including the "six factored equanimity," which connects our experiences with the five senses, and equanimity as an enlightenment factor among others. Margaret provides a captivating overview of these concepts, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own experiences and how they relate to the teachings. The episode sets the stage for an enriching month ahead, where each type of equanimity will be explored in greater depth, empowering us to foster a serene mind in a world filled with upheaval. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or new to Buddhist teachings, this episode offers a wealth of wisdom and practical insights for anyone seeking peace and clarity amid the storm. Join Margaret and embark on this transformative journey of understanding equanimity—an essential tool for navigating the complexities of contemporary life with grace and resilience. Tune in, and may you find balance, happiness, and ease as you walk this path with us.

Gregory Scarpa, known as “The Grim Reaper,” was a feared capo in the Colombo crime family and one of the most violent figures in the American Mafia. Rising to prominence in Brooklyn during the 1950s, Scarpa became infamous for his ruthless efficiency as a hitman—credited with dozens, if not hundreds, of murders. He ran rackets involving extortion, loan sharking, gambling, and narcotics, while maintaining a reputation as a stylish and brazen enforcer. His willingness to use extreme violence made him indispensable during the Colombo family's bloody internal wars, where he played a decisive role in eliminating rivals and consolidating power for his faction.Scarpa's criminal empire, however, was shadowed by his double life as a longtime FBI informant. Beginning in the early 1960s, he secretly collaborated with federal agents, reportedly even participating in the search for missing civil rights workers in Mississippi during the “Mississippi Burning” case. His relationship with the Bureau deepened in the 1980s under FBI agent Lindley DeVecchio, a partnership that sparked controversy amid claims the FBI allowed Scarpa to operate with impunity in exchange for intelligence. In 1986, he contracted HIV through a tainted blood transfusion, and by the early 1990s, he was terminally ill. Scarpa pleaded guilty to multiple murders in 1993 and died in prison in 1994 from AIDS-related complications—leaving behind a legacy as both one of the Mafia's deadliest killers and one of the FBI's most compromised informants.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.theguardian.com/world/2007/oct/31/usa.international

John Basile talks about Cape Cod jazz greats.

En este místico viaje a través de Berlín, los ángeles, testigos silenciosos, contemplan la ciudad desde torreones y monumentos, la cámara salta y planea sobre los transeúntes, sobre los coches, ellos escuchan sus pensamientos e intentan confortar a los más infelices con su presencia invisible. El reflexivo film de Wenders exalta la celebración de la vida, el amor al prójimo y a uno mismo, como cantaba Walt Whitman en sus poemas. Wenders filmó sin un guion al uso, partía de poemas de Peter Handke, de versos iba recreando imágenes, de ahí la extrañeza que se pueda sentir, sobre todo en la primera parte, etérea y abstracta, con dos heraldos de la bondad que se reúnen en un coche para hacer recuento de sus notas, uno de ellos confiesa que está algo cansado de no poder sentir, desear, de una biblioteca luminosa, catedral de los libros, paraíso poblado de ángeles y mortales, lecturas que se confunden con la música de Jürgen Knieper. Los textos de Handke verbalizados por Homero, el anciano en busca de la plaza donde un día sintió algo parecido a la felicidad, la Postdamer Platz, se sienta en un sillón desvencijado, en medio de un solar baldío. El personaje de Peter Falk, un Colombo con su gabardina, hace de sí mismo, está trabajando en un film sobre la barbarie de la segunda guerra mundial, Wenders añadirá imágenes de archivo mostrando el terror de los bombardeos en Berlín. En la segunda parte el ritmo toma brío, Damiel ya pone los pies en la tierra el personaje de Bruno Ganz, prefiere renunciar a la inmortalidad, encarnarse y sentir el tacto de una trapecista en soledad, Solveig Dommartin, compañera en ese momento del director. Si en Paris Texas la unión entre Travis y la madre de su hijo ya es imposible, las alas del deseo de un ángel transformado en hombre si alcanzan a tocar la piel de su adorada contorsionista, a quien observa ahora desde abajo mientras levita como él solía hacer. Esta noche vendemos la armadura en una tienda de empeños… Raúl Gallego, Zacarías Cotán, y Chari Medina.

August 17, 2025  This Sunday, Pastor Dishan Wickramaratne invites us to reflect on a core question of discipleship: Can God depend on you? Drawing from the Gospel of Luke, we will explore what it truly means to build our lives upon the firm foundation of obedience to Christ—rather than merely listening to His words. Pastor Dishan serves as the Senior Pastor of People's Church Assembly of God in Colombo, Sri Lanka About this Sermon Series: Being part of a family gives you a sense of belonging. And getting to know a family shows you their unique ways of doing things. Being part of God's family is similar. There are rhythms of how we move through our week and lives. Join us in this series as we give you a three-part strategy of how to get the most out of being part of God's family!

Mit Father Benedict Jayamanna OCist, dem Superior des Klosters "Stella Maris" in der Nähe von Colombo, Sri Lanka. Pater Benedict Jayamanna wuchs als Buddhist auf und war Lehrer der buddhistischen Philosophie, bevor er den christlichen Glauben kennenlernte und zum katholischen Glauben konvertierte. Heute lebt er als Zisterziensermönch inmitten des buddhistisch geprägten Sri Lanka in einem katholischen Kloster. Über seinen besonderen Lebensweg und die Herausforderungen für Christen in Sri Lanka berichtet er in dieser Sendung.

TOPIC 1 EDITORIAL: STADIUM TRAIN I love this plan for an express passenger train to get people into Christchurch for events at the new One New Zealand Stadium, which is due to open in April next year. But I'll love it even more if the councils around here chip-in to pay for a new railway station at the corner of Moorhouse Avenue and Colombo Street, which the rail company behind the plan is describing as a “key ingredient”. Because, otherwise, there's a 4.3 kilometre journey by road from the current station at Tower Junction - which could take about 22 minutes by car. Private outfit Mainland Rail has come up with the idea to get nearly 6,000 people into Christchurch from Rolleston and Rangiora (and even possibly Ashburton). It's saying an express service from Rolleston would get people into the centre of town in 20 minutes. It would be about 25 minutes from Rangiora. It's worked out how it can work-in with the KiwiRail freight train schedules and it's already bought second-hand carriages to run the service. But it's the new railway station on the corner of Moorhouse and Colombo that needs sorting out. And, with the likes of Selwyn and Waimakariri councils not putting any money at all into the stadium itself, this is the opportunity - at last - for them to have some skin in the game. Especially, considering that this service is all about getting people from their areas into town for the big matches and concerts. Maybe even Ashburton council could get involved. ECAN, as well - considering it's been pushing the idea of commuter rail services in the Greater Christchurch area. I know there will probably be no shortage of people who think that, if a private company wants to set-up this service, then it should cover all of the costs. Including the costs of a new train station. But I don't see it that way, at all. Because some sort of drop-off point for train passengers at that spot on the Colombo/Moorhouse corner would be brilliant - and not just for people using the stadium trains. There'll be others too who think it should be KiwiRail paying for it. But you can forget about Kiwirail coming up with the money anytime soon. If at all. So, if this thing is going to fly, then it's time for our local councils to step up. Who wouldn't want to see tourists getting on and off the Tranz Alpine service to the West Coast in the centre of town? Instead of that toy town train station at the back of Tower Junction. And if we are really serious about getting people in Rangiora and Rolleston to even entertain the idea of taking a train to work instead of driving, then we need to offer them something better than a train to Addington. This idea has the potential to be the start of something bigger and I think it's brilliantSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

First up, Ralph welcomes the co-founders of Doctors Against Genocide, Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle and Dr. Nidal Jboor, to discuss their dedication to succeeding where global governments have failed in confronting genocide—particularly the acute genocide in Gaza. Then, Ralph speaks to Marcus Sims, who turns felled and fallen trees into sustainable-harvested lumber with his company Treincarnation. Finally, Ralph has co-written an open letter to Barack Obama, urging him to step up and do his part to fight against Donald Trump.Dr. Karameh Hawash-Kuemmerle is a clinical pediatric neurologist who specializes in traumatic brain injury and epilepsy at Boston Children's Hospital. Dr. Nidal Jboor is a doctor of internal medicine and geriatrics working in Michigan. They are co-founders of Doctors Against Genocide.We think: as American people, we are good people. We don't stand for these crimes. We don't accept that any child, any mother, any father, any elderly in the world will be starved to death—no matter where they are, no matter who they are, no matter who is committing this crime. And we are especially appalled to know that all these crimes are being done in our name, with our tax money. They are cutting the funding from our basic programs here, from our neighborhoods, to send more billions to mass slaughter children. So that's why we're going to DC. We're going to talk to the people who are enabling this. We think they already failed their constituents, they failed their country, they are putting our country on the wrong side of history.Dr. Nidal JboorAnyone who did not call this a genocide yet—and did not demand full accountability for genocide, both for the United States and for Israel—is enabling and allowing this crime to continue further.Dr. Nidal JboorWe are committed to having our eyes open whenever and wherever there is a genocide or there are war crimes, crimes against humanity—no matter who commits them. And it's very important for us to stand with the victims, with the community that is suffering, and never take the side or give a platform for the perpetrators.Dr. Karameh KuemmerleOur focus on the situation in Gaza comes from the simple fact that our country is complicit. And because of that, we actually have the moral obligation and the practical obligation to speak up. So it is not because we think that other genocides are not happening or are not important. We actually think every genocide should never happen. It's anti-human to commit genocide. And we always ask our colleagues to come to us to help uplift the voices of the communities of genocide and hopefully we will have more bandwidth to do a lot more. But the situation in Gaza is unique because there is almost a collusion of all these powerful players to complete this genocide in Gaza and basically oppress every resistance to it. There are many things that make what is happening in Gaza unique—for example, the inability to leave, using food as a weapon, having complete siege on the population, having a major superpower supported by another major superpower bombing a population of two million people in a very small area, constantly, nonstop for two years.Dr. Karameh KuemmerleAll professions have their own specialized civic duties…And I want to tell the listeners that the people who are peace-loving all over the world vastly outnumber, vastly outnumber the warmongers and the cruel and vicious interests that have taken advantage of the situation.Ralph NaderMarcus Sims is the owner of Treincarnation, which creates sustainably-harvested lumber and builds custom furniture from trees felled by storms or removed to make way for development.I think there's a lot of support for what I'm doing, but my work is contrasted to the industrial lumber system, which is “chop them down and cut them up,” a lot of it done by huge machines. So it takes a lot more attention and care to do the kind of work that I'm doing. And of course the finances—as you know, finances play a big part in any kind of industry and how they can manage to make money. So I'm certainly making a living, a good living with what I'm doing. I don't know exactly how we can get from the current system into one that was probably used in the past, where the intelligence of human beings is more engaged and we're not slaves to industrial processes.Marcus SimsNews 7/25/25* This week, Israel shelled the Holy Family Church in Gaza. During the last months of his life, Pope Francis was in constant communication with this church and its pastor, Father Gabriel Romanelli, calling them every single night. Three people were killed in this strike and Father Romanelli was injured, as were other congregants. In a speech after the strike, Pope Leo called for an immediate ceasefire and decried the “barbarity of war,” Reuters reports. He added, "I appeal to the international community to observe humanitarian law and respect the obligation to protect civilians as well as the prohibition of collective punishment, of indiscriminate use of force and forced displacement of the population.” According to the National Catholic Reporter, Pope Leo XIV spoke with Palestinian president Mahmood Abbas following this attack and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu called to “express Israel's regret for what he called an accidental attack.”2. In Belgium, the Hind Rajab Foundation – named for the five-year-old girl in Gaza killed along with six of her family members and the paramedics coming to her rescue – reports, “Belgian federal police have arrested and interrogated two Israeli soldiers credibly accused of war crimes in Gaza. The action came in response to an urgent legal complaint filed by the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) earlier this week.” The soldiers, who had come to Belgium to attend the Tomorrowland music festival were, “formally interrogated and released. The Belgian Federal Prosecutor's Office has confirmed that a criminal investigation is now underway.”3. In a shameful, undemocratic move, the Executive Committee of the National Education Association has voted to reject the member-approved resolution to boycott materials promulgated by the ADL, Axios reports. This helps keep the ADL entrenched as the arbiter of what is and is not antisemitism, a charge they have weaponized and used as a cudgel again and again to silence any criticism of the state of Israel.4. In New York, disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo continues to campaign in his increasingly long-shot independent bid for Mayor of New York City. Recently, Cuomo held a campaign breakfast attended by 450 at the Hampton Synagogue, where he said, “I would wager that in the primary, more than 50% of the Jewish people voted for Mamdani.” If true, this would be a stunning victory not only for Zohran himself but for the pro-Palestine movement, which has been maligned in bad faith as antisemitic. Cuomo added that many younger Jewish voters are, “pro-Palestinian, and they don't consider it being anti-Israel.” This from the Forward.5. Another intra-ethnic cleavage is emerging among voters in New York City – this time, Italian-Americans. While Mamdani visited Uganda, the country of his birth, anti-Zohran Italians rallied in front of his Assembly district office in Queens. The New York Times reports this protest, “ostensibly led by the Italian American Civil Rights League, a group that took its name from but had no apparent ties to a defunct organization founded by [Mafia boss] Joseph A. Colombo Sr,...until recently, when Mr. Colombo's grandson, Anthony E. Colombo Jr….joined the group's board in May.” As the Times notes, this protest was held in response to a, “recently resurfaced social media photo from 2020 showing Mr. Mamdani giving the middle finger to a Columbus statue.” However, a large group of pro-Zohran Italian-American counterprotestors rallied across the street, carrying signs that read “Paisans for Zohran!” and “You Eat Jar Sauce!”6. In Minneapolis, many are drawing parallels between Mamdani and insurgent Democratic Socialist candidate Omar Fateh, who won the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party's endorsement for the mayoralty over incumbent Jacob Frey. Fateh, a state senator, won “at least 60% of the Minneapolis DFL delegate vote Saturday…in the party's first endorsement of a mayoral candidate in 16 years,” per the Minnesota Star Tribune. This endorsement gives Fateh a major boost in his campaign and indicates that the Zohran phenomenon is not confined to New York City.7. Last week, Paramount – one of the largest media conglomerates and parent company of CBS – canceled The Late Show with Stephen Colbert less than 48 hours after Colbert called CBS News's $16 million settlement with Trump a, “big fat bribe,” implying it would help curry favor with the administration regarding the proposed merger between Paramount and Skydance. Incensed, the Writers Guild of America East issued a statement calling on New York State Attorney General Letitia James, to, “launch an investigation into potential wrongdoing at Paramount…[and for]…our elected leaders to hold those responsible to account…demand answers about why this beloved program was canceled and to assure the public that Colbert and his writers were not censored due to their views or the whims of the President.”8. At the same time, CNN reports Paramount's “owner-in-waiting,” David Ellison is in talks to acquire Bari Weiss's publication The Free Press. According to the Financial Times, Weiss is seeking over $200 million for the purchase. However, this goes further than a potential acquisition. Puck reports that if brought in, Weiss would serve as an “ideological guide” for CBS News. This, paired with the recent piece in the Hollywood Reporter stating that Skydance “promised to eliminate all diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives,” at Paramount, gives a fuller picture of the “anti-woke” direction CBS would take under the new leadership. With news Thursday that federal regulators have approved the merger, it seems fair to conclude that these moves mollified the president.9. Turning to Latin America, AP reports the U.S., Venezuela and El Salvador have successfully concluded an intricate tripartite prisoner exchange. This deal includes the release of 10 Americans jailed in Venezuela and 252 Venezuelans held in El Salvador's notorious and dystopian CECOT prison complex. The freed Americans include some who were accused of participating in a U.S.-backed coup attempt against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro in 2024 and one who was convicted of a triple homicide in Madrid, according to EL PAÍS. All parties seem satisfied with this agreement, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying “Every wrongfully detained American in Venezuela is now free and back in our homeland,” while President Maduro pronounced the occasion “a day of blessings and good news…the perfect day for Venezuela.”10. Finally, prominent British tech writer Ed Zitron is out with “The Hater's Guide To The AI Bubble.” In this piece, Zitron – a noted critic of AI writ large – details tech companies' expenditures on AI as compared to the revenues, and the numbers are stark. Microsoft has reaped $13 billion, with $10 billion from OpenAI, sold at “a heavily discounted rate that essentially only covers costs for operating the servers," while expenditures total $80 billion. Amazon AI revenues In 2025 amount to $5 billion, while capital expenditures total $105 billion. Google AI revenue stands at $7.7 billion, with capital expenditures standing at $75 billion. Meta AI revenue in 2025 is a paltry $2-3 billion. Their capital expenditures: $72 billion. Perhaps most deliciously, while Tesla has spent around $11 billion on AI in 2025, the company “Does Not Appear To Make Money From Generative AI” at all. Hopefully these numbers serve as a wakeup call for companies to stop dumping money down the AI drain, since clearly the immense adverse impact on the environment is not dissuading them.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

The Frank and Jill Show 7-25-25: Mike Colombo - Lynn Venhaus by

Amanda Colombo"Una locanda rosso lampone"Garzanti Editorewww.garzanti.itSulle sponde del lago Maggiore una locanda spicca per il colore inusuale della sua facciata. Un rosso talmente caldo che, unito al profumo di lampone che emana, crea un'atmosfera magica. Ad attenderli sulla soglia, gli ospiti trovano Ortensia, cuoca e lettrice famelica, che si esprime solo attraverso citazioni di libri letti e mai dimenticati, presi in prestito dalla biblioteca di Verbania. È il luogo in cui Ortensia ha conosciuto Lidia, ora proprietaria di Rosso Lampone, che con pazienza e cura le ha permesso di evadere da un triste passato familiare. Insieme, sono riuscite a trasformare la locanda nella destinazione perfetta per chi vuole cambiare vita. È quello che Cesare, Pietro e Altea sperano che accada. Qui capiscono che, per costruire ponti con l'altro, è prima necessario imparare a conoscere sé stessi. Cesare, uno scrittore di mezza età, si è innamorato per la prima volta, ma non riesce a comunicarlo. Pietro mette alla prova le sue capacità di padre e di marito. Altea vuole riuscire a fidarsi delle persone, anche quelle dalle quali la madre le direbbe di tenersi lontana. Ortensia e Lidia hanno una sola settimana per aiutarli a lavorare sulle paure che li ostacolano. Una settimana al termine della quale ognuno di loro possa fare spazio in valigia alla versione migliore di sé. E perché questo avvenga, anche Rosso Lampone ha qualcosa da dire ai suoi ospiti: una serie di regole ben precise per abitare le sue stanze, all'apparenza difficili da accettare, ma capaci di svelare quanto prezioso sia il tempo. Perché è indubbio che stiamo sprecando quello necessario per vivere in modo autentico noi stessi e gli altri. Amanda Colombo, autrice di Meno male che ci siete voi, tradotto anche in Germania, torna in libreria con una storia felice che traccia un cammino verso ciò che si dovrebbe sempre recuperare: il coraggio di riscoprirsi. Amanda Colombo è laureata in Filosofia con indirizzo in Comunicazioni sociali. Nel 1999 ha sposato il suo libraio di fiducia e oggi gestisce con lui la libreria di famiglia a Legnano. I libri sono la sua casa. Con Garzanti ha pubblicato anche Meno male che ci siete voi (2023), suo romanzo d'esordio.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Michael Franzese, the former Colombo crime family capo who once served time in the same cell where Jeffrey Epstein died, told NewsNation that physically, it would have been “impossible” for Epstein to hang himself in that space. Franzese emphasized the lack of structural elements such as ceiling fixtures or a high bed to facilitate hanging—elements he believes were necessary but absent in that cellHe also expressed deep skepticism about the reported missteps of jail staff and malfunctioning cameras that night. Drawing from his own prison experience, where guard watches were rigorous and surveillance unbroken, Franzese said he “just can't buy” the idea that corrections officers slept through checks or that cameras conveniently failed—all details that form the backbone of the official suicide narrative. to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Suicide in Jeffrey Epstein's jail cell is 'impossible,' says mobster

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into fascinating connections between Earth's atmospheric conditions and its magnetic field, alongside intriguing insights into Mercury and the mysteries of the Sun's corona.Link Between Earth's Oxygen and Magnetic FieldA groundbreaking study published in Science Advances reveals a correlation between the fluctuations of Earth's magnetic field and atmospheric oxygen levels over the last 540 million years. Researchers suggest that processes within the Earth might influence habitability on the surface, highlighting the magnetic field's role in protecting our atmosphere from cosmic rays and solar wind. This correlation raises questions about the underlying processes linking these two critical elements for life on Earth.Unraveling Mercury's SecretsNew findings indicate that Mercury's crust and internal structure are unlike any other planet in our solar system. Laboratory simulations are aiding the European-Japanese BepiColombo mission, set to orbit Mercury in November 2026. Researchers are investigating why Mercury's core constitutes 60% of its volume, exploring theories about its metal-rich composition and volcanic history. The study emphasizes the need for more data to understand Mercury's unique characteristics and geological processes.The Ongoing Mystery of the Sun's CoronaDespite advancements in solar research, the heating of the Sun's corona remains a significant puzzle. Observations from NASA's IRIS mission and other spacecraft are shedding light on potential mechanisms, including magnetic reconnection and plasma waves. These studies are revealing the complexity of the solar atmosphere and could help scientists understand how energy is transferred from the Sun's surface to its outer layers.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesScience Advanceshttps://www.science.org/journal/sciadvNASA IRIS Missionhttps://iris.lmsal.com/European Space Agencyhttps://www.esa.int/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 77 for broadcast on 27 June 202501:00 Link between Earth's oxygen and magnetic field12:15 Unraveling Mercury's secrets22:30 The ongoing mystery of the Sun's corona30:00 Science report: Changing seasonal rhythms and their impact on ecosystems

In late August 1979, the FBI's Brooklyn-Queens Metropolitan Resident Agency (the BQ) received a significant tip from a top-echelon informant within the Genovese crime family. This informant, known as "Bob," reported that Paul Castellano, head of the Gambino crime family, had mentioned an upcoming major meeting at Gurney's Inn in Montauk, New York. The anticipated attendees included prominent figures such as Frank "Funzi" Tieri of the Genovese family, Carmine "The Snake" Persico of the Colombo family, and Tampa's organized crime leader, Santo Trafficante Jr. Recognizing the potential significance of this gathering—the most consequential since the 1957 Apalachin summit—the FBI swiftly mobilized. Agents, including undercover operatives, were dispatched to Gurney's Inn, posing as tourists to monitor arrivals and activities. Specialized personnel were prepared to install surveillance equipment to capture conversations during the meeting. Despite the extensive preparations, the anticipated meeting never occurred. The reasons remain uncertain; possibilities include the informant providing inaccurate information, the mobsters altering their plans, or suspicions about increased surveillance leading to a change in venue. This outcome was reminiscent of the 1957 Apalachin meeting, where law enforcement's unexpected presence led to the mobsters' dispersal. While the immediate operation at Gurney's Inn did not yield the expected results, it underscored the FBI's evolving strategies in combating organized crime. The bureau's readiness to deploy advanced surveillance techniques and coordinate large-scale operations marked a shift towards more proactive and sophisticated approaches. This evolution contributed to significant successes in subsequent years, including the Mafia Commission Trial of 1986 and the conviction of John Gotti in 1992. This episode about the FBI's almost-successful attempt to bug a major mob meeting at Gurney's Inn illustrates the challenges law enforcement faced in infiltrating organized crime and highlights the pivotal role such operations played in modernizing the FBI's methodologies. Joining us in this episode, we have: Daniel Edward Rosen, a staff reporter from the New York Sun, whose work has appeared in Esquire, the New York Observer, City Journal, New York Magazine, and the New York Times. See his original article: https://www.nysun.com/article/how-the-fbis-mad-dash-to-wiretap-the-mob-at-a-montauk-hotel-nearly-50-years-ago-helped-modernize-todays-agencyFrank DiMatteo joins us to provide color commentary based upon his experiences growing up embedded in one of the most infamous mob crews in the history of the American Cosa Nostra. Frank is the son of Ricky DiMatteo, a member of the legendary Gallo Crew of the Colombo Crime Family in New York City. He is also an author of several books in his own right including Growing Up Mafia, Mafia Hit Man, Lord High Executioner, The Cigar, Carmine the Snake, Red Hook, as well as the publisher of Mob Candy.

Las había visto en películas, pero no imaginaba, quizás por ser tan ingenua, que ellas en verdad existieron y realizaron el servicio de correo postal aéreo. La colombofilia: deporte actual que se dedica al adiestramiento, cría y cuidados de la paloma mensajera, les da el título de atletas del espacio por la rapidez con la que realizan sus misiones. A lo largo de la historia, las palomas mensajeras jugaron un papel muy importante en los conflictos bélicos al llevar información, en muchos casos, tan oportuna que se salvaron miles de vidas.Cuando se descubrió que las palomas jugaban un papel muy importante en las guerras, los enemigos comenzaron a entrenar halcones para interceptar a las palomas y no dejarlas llegar hasta su destino. Es el caso de la «paloma Mary», quien debía llevar un mensaje desde Alemania hasta la ciudad Británica de Exeter. En el viaje, Mary fue alcanzada por los halcones y hubo una guerra de pájaros en el aire, dejando a la desdichada con un ala malherida; sin embargo, finalmente logró llegar a su destino. El año 1945 la «paloma Mary» fue condecorada con la medalla de honor «Dikin» por su hazaña.En ocasión del bautismo de Jesús, los autores de los evangelios concuerdan con el hecho de que algo descendió del cielo como una paloma. Si ellos vieron una paloma real, no es tan difícil pensar que el cielo había enviado al Espíritu Santo en forma de paloma, después de todo, toda la naturaleza obedece a su Creador. Sin embargo, si solo fuera una figura para poder registrar lo que vieron, sin duda que vieron las alas del Espíritu Santo.Los medios por los cuales enviamos mensajes en la actualidad son muy eficaces e instantáneos, pero no están exentos de fallas técnicas. Todos hemos sido testigos de lo que ocurre cuando el sistema de red mundial se cae.La buena noticia es que la mensajería que el cielo usa, nunca será interceptada por ningún halcón. El enemigo jamás podrá hacer que nuestras oraciones no lleguen hasta el trono de la gracia. Puedes estar segura de que el Espíritu Santo está siempre disponible para llevar en sus alas tus cargas y preocupaciones. ¿Te gustaría enviar un mensaje ahora mismo?

A YOUNG British woman is in a Sri Lankan jail, accused of trying to smuggle a disturbing new drug called kush into the country.   Kush comes from West Africa, where it's reportedly the cause of about a dozen overdose deaths a week in Sierra Leone. It's made of synthetic cannabis, opioids—and, reportedly, ground human bone. The accused woman, 21-year-old Charlotte May of South London, was stopped at the airport in Colombo, Sri Lanka with 100 pounds of kush in her luggage with a street value of about $3.3 million. May claims she doesn't know how it got into her bags. We make no judgment on Ms. May; it's possible she was an unwitting drug mule. What's disturbing about this story is that human bones are reportedly incorporated into this drug, and that it's apparently being shipped around the world. We also discuss a recent case from South Africa, where a woman and two accomplices were sentenced to life in prison this week for selling her then-6-year-old daughter for $1,100 last year to a traditional healer who wanted to harvest the girl's skin and eyes—green, a relative rarity in South Africa—for ritual purposes. The world is returning to pre-Christian paganism at the same time it's drawing closer to World War 3. Early this week, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz declared that the US, UK, and Germany has removed all restrictions on how weapons supplied to Ukraine can be used in NATO's proxy war with Russia. This has not been confirmed by the United States or United Kingdom, and even Germany's own Defense Ministry has not confirmed the change in how its missiles can be used. However, it seems that Europe's Big Three—Germany, France, and the UK—are bound and determined to provoke open war with Russia, and top drag the United States into it whether the American people want it or not.  In our view, this is the work of principalities and powers behind the scenes trying to set the stage for the emergence of a false savior, the Antichrist. Also: Emanuel Macron publicly emasculated by his wife; rewilding the Western US costing cattle ranchers; and happy birthday to Pat Boone and Clint Eastwood.

In this gripping episode of Gangland Wire, retired Intelligence Detective Gary Jenkins welcomes back veteran crime journalist and mob historian Larry McShane to discuss his latest book, Little Vic and the Great Mafia War. Together, they dive deep into the violent and chaotic period known as the Third Colombo War—a brutal internal conflict that nearly tore the Colombo crime family apart. Larry offers exclusive insights from his research, including rare interviews with Andrew Arena, one of the five sons of Victor "Little Vic" Orena, the acting boss at the center of the war. These firsthand accounts reveal the deeply personal toll the Mafia war inflicted on the Arena family and expose the raw emotions behind the headlines. Gary and Larry revisit the key flashpoints of the conflict, including the botched assassination attempt on Orena. On June 20, 1991, A five-man hit team waited in a car outside the Long Island home of Victor Orena, the acting crime boss of the Colombo crime family. Orena recognized the vehicle—and managed to escape with his lifethe bloody street warfare that followed. We explore the complex dynamics between longtime boss Carmine Persico, rising star John Gotti, and powerful enforcer Greg Scarpa—whose shadowy relationship with the FBI cast a dark cloud over the entire war. The conversation also tackles the shifting nature of mob alliances, how loyalty turned lethal, and how the RICO prosecutions of the early 1990s reshaped the Mafia's grip on New York. As the war's body count climbed, so too did its consequences—both for the Colombo family and the broader underworld. Don't miss this deep-dive into one of the most explosive chapters in Mafia history. And be sure to pick up Larry McShane's Little Vic and the Great Mafia War for an even more detailed look at the treachery, violence, and fallout of the Colombo civil war.

Federico y Andrés Amorós han analizado la corrida de Pedraza de Yeltes con "toracos" que dieron una media peso de más de 600 kilos. En la tarde del pasado miércoles se celebró en la Monumental de Las Ventas el cuarto festejo de San Isidro 2025 en la previa del día del patrón de Madrid en un ambiente festivo y con multitud de jóvenes en los tendidos que se refugiaron en cuanto comenzó a llover con fuerza. Con un cartel internacional compuesto por el español Román, el venezolano Jesús Enrique Colombo y el mexicano Isaac Fonseca en la plaza madrileña se lidiaron "toracos" de Pedraza de Yeltes que dieron una media de 622 kilos de peso. En Al Alimón, la sección taurina de Es la Mañana de Federico de esRadio, Jiménez Losantos y Andrés Amorós han comentado esta "tarde de tormenta típica" con "rayos y truenos y diluvio". El cronista ha dicho que "los toros de Pedraza son muy altos" y "salieron, complicaditos, salvo el último que fue muy bueno". "Estuvo en primer lugar Román muy valiente y dio la vuelta al ruedo" y, luego, "Colombo puso todo lo que pudo".San Isidro 2025: seis tripletes, catorce dobletes y televisada por TeleMadridJavier Romero Jordano En tercer y sexto lugar toreó "este torero mexicano que es tan tan valiente, Isaac Fonseca". Salió "a jugársela" y, aunque en el primer foro estuvo "regular", en el último, que se llamaba Brigadier y que tenía "casi 700 kg", triunfó. "El toro no paró de embestir y él, que es chaparrito como dicen, se puso de rodillas y el toro iba de maravilla. Claro, la gente bramando y luego de pie hizo una faena ardorosa, ardiente, valiente, con coraje y un toro tremendo", ha explicado. Fonseca "tiene lo que hay que tener" y ayer al torear "un toro muy bueno, la cosa fue pues emocionantísima". "Pinchó antes de la estocada" porque "el exceso de emoción, al tirarse se dio y salió con sangre en la frente. No se sabe si era del toro o si se había dado con el pomo de la espada". A la segunda lo cazó y le dieron a él una oreja y al toro la vuelta al ruedo", ha contado Amorós que cree que "la cuestión es: si lo hubiera matado a la primera le hubieran dado dos orejas". "Lo que no es discutible es una cosa que es que es un mito de los taurinos. ¿Cómo pueden embestir un toro con esos kilos? Pues embiste cuando tiene casta, fuerza y nobleza. Lo de las hechuras no es seguro en absoluto. Entonces este toro tenía casi 700 kg, casta, fuerza, motor, que es lo que han de tener todos los toros", ha añadido.Isaac Fonseca: "Ahora mismo el toreo está para muy pocos toreros que ganen dinero"J. RomeroEn San Isidro, a Las Ventas Andrés Amorós ha dicho que hoy día de San Isidro hay que ir a Las Ventas y cree que "se llenará la plaza" porque "habrá un ambiente festivo". "A los madrileños que les gusta también esto y habrá algunos que se vistan de chulapos", ha indicad. Se lidian toros de Valdefresno, de Salamanca, que suelen salir "nobles". El cartel lo encabeza Paco Ureña que "es un torero muy valiente, muy clásico y muy querido en Madrid". También torea David Galván, "que ahora ha entrado en Madrid y que lo que tiene es personalidad" y "confirmar la alternativa a un chico de Madrid que se llama Alejandro Chicharro".

Ch. 8 - Unmeasured Time from Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner THE ENTIRE ISLAND OF Ceylon has only eight million inhabitants, and as I stood idly waiting for a bus or walked through the streets of Colombo, the capital city, I no longer felt the constant psychic assault that I had been aware of in India. The most obvious difference, however, was that Ceylon was a Buddhist country. Even the most casual conversation easily turned to a common appreciation of the Dharma. There are probably no more Ceylonese who actually practice the heart of Buddha's teachings than there are real practitioners of any religion anywhere, but everyone I met at least understood the value of his teachings and was willing to support those who really did wish to pursue them. ... by Eric Lerner 2025 46 minutes 54 seconds Listen to Streaming Audio Your browser does not support the audio element.

In this eye-opening episode of Keeping It Real, Jillian sits down with former Mafia capo Michael Franzese, a man who lived deep inside the world of organized crime and walked away—something almost unheard of. We dive into his fascinating life story, from his rise in the Colombo crime family to his decision to leave the Mafia behind and find redemption.But here's where it gets even more interesting: are the tactics of the government really that different from those of the Mafia? Michael shares his firsthand experience with the inner workings of both, exposing corruption, backroom deals, and power plays that eerily mirror what happens in the political world. From tax schemes and money laundering to loyalty, fear tactics, and backstabbing, we break down the shocking parallels between organized crime and modern government. We also explore the world of sports gambling—one of the Mafia's biggest money-makers—and how its influence has evolved with legalization, corporate interests, and political involvement.This is a must-listen episode for anyone who wants an unfiltered look at how power really works—whether in the streets or in Washington, D.C. Don't miss this raw, unfiltered conversation with one of the most compelling figures in organized crime history.
