May is Cemetery Appreciation Month, and Jennie and Dianne are celebrating by sharing three Ordinary Extraordinary stories buried beneath the soil of three Colorado cemeteries. Hear the tragic tale of a young woman who lost her life to 'consumption' in a rural community, the complex and incomplete story of a woman institutionalized at the Colorado State Hospital for the Insane, and the gold prospector who left his family behind forcing his widow to seek justice on his behalf several years after his passing. Sometimes the most compelling stories are the ones buried in plain sight. As you walk through your own local cemeteries this month, look beyond the headstones and imagine the lives that once were. You might just uncover an Ordinary Extraordinary story waiting to be told.View this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ox2JHkyC-L0Need an Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast tee, hoodie or mug?

This episode looks at On the Waterfront, the celebrated 1954 American film directed by Elia Kazan and written by Budd Schulberg. The film stars Marlon Brando as the ex-prize fighter turned New Jersey longshoreman Terry Malloy. Malloy struggles to stand up to mob-affiliated union boss Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb) after Malloy is lured into setting up a fellow dockworker whom Friendly has murdered to prevent him from testifying before the Waterfront Crime Commission about violence and corruption at the docks. The pressure on Malloy rises as he falls in love with Edie Doyle (Eva Marie Saint), the murdered dockworker's sister, and as Edie, along with local priest Father Pete Barry (Karl Malden), urge Malloy to do the right thing. Malloy ultimately testifies against Friendly and challenges Friendly's leadership at great personal risk. While the film is about a courageous fight against a corrupt power structure and injustice, it is also influenced by director Elia Kazan's own controversial decision to act as an informant against fellow directors, writers, and actors during the McCarthy-era Red Scare.Timestamps:0:00 Introduction2:20 Corruption on the docks9:18 Boxing: I could have been a contender17:07 The priest on the waterfront23:44 Testifying before waterfront crime commission32:10 Informants34:48 Elia Kazan and the House Un-American Activities Committee47:04 The film's relevance today48:39 Some people who stood up to HUAC50:40 Separating the art and the artistFurther reading:Demeri, Michelle J., “The ‘Watchdog' Agency: Fighting Organized Crime on the Waterfront in New York and New Jersey,” 38 New Eng.

Intentional torts require a volitional act by the defendant and a specific intent to cause harm or offensive contact, or knowledge with substantial certainty that such a consequence will result. This purposeful interference distinguishes them from the unintentional nature of negligence and the focus on the act itself in strict liability.Harmful contact in battery refers to contact that results in physical injury or pain to the plaintiff. Offensive contact, on the other hand, is contact that would offend a reasonable person's sense of personal dignity, even if it does not cause physical harm.A key element required for assault, but not for battery, is that the plaintiff must have a reasonable apprehension of an imminent harmful or offensive contact at the time the defendant acts. In battery, the plaintiff need not be aware of the contact when it occurs.Confinement for false imprisonment involves intentionally restraining the plaintiff to a bounded area through physical barriers, force, threats, or failure to provide a means of escape when there is a duty to do so. Moral pressure or future threats are generally considered insufficient to constitute confinement.Intentional infliction of emotional distress requires extreme and outrageous conduct that exceeds all bounds tolerated by a civilized society and intentionally or recklessly causes severe emotional distress. The threshold for outrageousness may be lowered if the defendant is in a position of power or if the plaintiff is known to be particularly vulnerable.For trespass to land, the intent requirement applies only to the act of entering the land or causing a physical invasion. Knowledge that the land belongs to another is not necessary; even a mistaken belief of ownership does not negate the intent to enter.The key distinction between trespass to chattels and conversion lies in the degree of interference with the plaintiff's personal property. Trespass to chattels involves a less significant interference resulting in dispossession or minor harm, while conversion involves a substantial interference requiring the defendant to pay the full market value of the chattel.The doctrine of transferred intent states that if a defendant intends to commit one of five intentional torts (battery, assault, false imprisonment, trespass to land, trespass to chattels) against one person but instead commits a different one of these torts or affects a different person, the intent transfers. This holds the defendant liable despite the misdirected action.The two broad categories of defenses to intentional torts discussed are consent-based defenses and protective privileges. An example of a consent-based defense is express consent to medical treatment, and an example of a protective privilege is self-defense against an imminent threat of unlawful force.Under the majority rule, deadly force is permissible in self-defense only when the defendant reasonably believes they are facing an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm. The force used must be proportionate to the threat.

Creativity is as intrinsic to our species as any of our basic instincts, says Debbie Millman, designer and curator. But for millions of people in the United States, the ability to create has been thwarted. This basic human need, as important as love and shelter, Millman says, isn't available for people serving time at the nearly 2,000 correctional facilities across America. In this discussion, moderated by Millman, a group of artists and activists share how they're working to bring creative outlets to people who are incarcerated. Turns out ushering creativity into these dark and lonely spaces not only increases hope for the incarcerated, it makes our country safer. Common, a hip hop artist and actor, launched the nonprofits Imagine Justice and the Common Ground Foundation. Hank Willis Thomas is a conceptual artist who co-founded For Freedoms. Claudia Peña is an artist and founding co-director of the Center for Justice at UCLA. Michael Murphy is an architect, artist, educator, and writer. This talk was recorded at the 2024 Aspen Ideas Festival. aspenideas.org
This week, Mercury sails the turbulent Piscean seas, connecting with Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and the North Node, on the way to a high-flying Pisces New Moon. The Sun crosses paths with Jupiter in Gemini and wishes for a little peace and quiet. Venus stations for her 40-day retrograde period. And a listener question about minor aspects; What makes them so minor? Plus: Restringing your guitar, extreme haircuts, and a square + a semi-square: does that sound minor to you?

A reality check is in order. [2:58] Mercury sextiles Uranus (Feb. 27, 1:38 am PST), 23º35' Pisces-Taurus. New ideas arise in conversation or in your environment. [3:50] Moon Report! The Pisces New Moon (Feb. 27, 4:45 pm PST, 09º40' Pisces) features a stellium of planets in Pisces and a square from Jupiter to the New Moon point. Look for tension between peace and quiet, and endless noise and distraction. The Sabian symbol for this New Moon degree, 10 Pisces, is An aviator in the clouds. Themes to work with during this New Moon: spirituality, collaborating on a creative project, forgiveness, and emotional and physical healing. [7:25] This is the New Moon in a lunar phase family cycle (LPFC) that unfolds over the next three years. The First Quarter Moon in this LPFC is on Nov. 27, 2025, the Full Moon on Aug. 27, 2026, and the Last Quarter Moon on May 28, 2027. [9:18] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon periods. On Feb. 24 (7:28 pm PST), the Moon in Capricorn sextiles Neptune. It's VOC for 2 hours, 12 minutes, then enters Aquarius (9:40 pm PST). [10:52] On Feb. 26 (2:04 pm PST), the Moon in Aquarius squares.

Retrograde periods for all planets favor inner work over outer action in the matters that are ruled by the retrograde planet. With Venus retrograde, avoid major purchases, permanent relationship changes, and physical changes that can be hard to reverse. [16:20] Mercury conjoins Neptune (March 2, 8:22 am PST) at 28º57' Pisces, on the Sabian symbol, 29 Pisces, A prism. Be a little careful what you feed your mind, because it will become part of you.

The Sun's Sabian symbol is 13 Pisces, A sword in a museum, and Jupiter's Sabian symbol is 13 Gemini, A great musician at his piano. Good opportunities can present themselves to you around this date, but use a little bit of caution before we say yes.

We continue our conversation on what it means to be a New Afrikan with Brotha Gha'is Muntaqim, home after 40+ years, although after all is said and done he's survived the ravages of genocidal captivity in CDCr for 60 years, and comes home with 4-stage cancer among other ailments, and Kan't stop, Won't stop, Will not be stopped fortitude! We will be focusing on this historical and political issue of medical abuse, neglect and genocide plaguing our people behind razor wire, and why We should understand its implications and what We can do to support our People coming home.
First week of “Black” History Month. We'll be commemorating through the lens and narrative of New Afrikan History 365, talking about Carter G. Woodson, father of Black History Week and the importance, and intention, of his seminal book, “The Mis-education of the Negro.” We will also hear from Prime Minister Balagoon, speaking on the Honorable Marcus Garvey, Pan African, considered the Father of the New African Nation, Founder of the UNIA (Universal Negro Improvement Association), and creator of the Pan-African RBG flag (Red- for the blood spilled, Black- for the People, Green- for the land)…
Il y a cinq ans jour pour jour, le 23 janvier 2020, la Chine annonçait à Wuhan le premier confinement à cause d'une maladie à coronavirus, alors un virus inconnu, qui sera baptisée plus tard Covid-19. On ne fait mention nulle part en Chine de cet anniversaire. Mais à Wuhan, les stigmates demeurent. Avec notre correspondante à Wuhan, Clea Broadhurst avec la collaboration de Chi XiangyuanLa vie a repris son cours à Wuhan, dans la province du Hubei, au centre de la Chine. Mais, interrogés sur le premier confinement dû au Covid-19, les habitants se souviennent, parfois dans la douleur, « des mois les plus difficiles de [leur] vie », comme nous le dit Tang.« Au début, ce n'était pas grand-chose, mais plus les rumeurs se répandaient, plus elles devenaient exagérées et on se sentait tous à cran, se remémore l'homme, qui tient un petit magasin près du marché de fruits de mer Huanan. Dire que le marché est à l'origine de toutes ces infections, c'est complètement absurde. Des rumeurs circulaient même sur le fait que les gens d'ici mangeaient des chauves-souris ! Aucune preuve, juste leur imagination débordante. » Ils sont nombreux, parmi les passants interrogés par RFI, à dire que le marché de la ville a été blâmé à tort.À l'époque, ce qui comptait pour eux, c'était de survivre, explique Yue, un chauffeur de taxi. « À Wuhan, causer des ennuis, c'est comme demander la mort, se souvient-il. L'approche était la suivante : "Mieux vaut arrêter à tort que laisser passer quelqu'un." Sur TikTok, on regardait des vidéos de Pékin ou de Shanghai où des gens disaient : "Je veux sortir, je viens d'outre-mer, je veux juste faire un jogging", et la police restait là, à essayer de les raisonner. Mais des vidéos similaires à Wuhan ? Non. Si vous osiez faire quelque chose comme ça, c'était chercher les ennuis. »Le nombre de victimes est une incertitude qui demeure, souligne Li, qui affirme ne pas savoir « combien de personnes sont mortes, car il n'y a pas eu de bilan officiel. Les critères pour les statistiques étaient très stricts. Par exemple, on ne comptait que les personnes officiellement diagnostiquées et décédées à l'hôpital. Et encore, il fallait mourir dans un service spécifique ou dans une zone désignée pour être pris en compte. Les crématoriums fonctionnaient 24 heures sur 24, sans interruption. Wuhan comptait quatre crématoriums, qui fonctionnaient tous sans interruption. S'ils brûlaient un corps toutes les demi-heures… je vous laisse faire le calcul ».Aujourd'hui, les habitants de Wuhan veulent tourner la page, oublier à quel point leur ville a pu être silencieuse. Pour Dang, cela a aussi révélé la persévérance des habitants : « Tout le monde était uni dans la lutte contre la pandémie. Les personnes âgées, les jeunes, on faisait tous preuve de patience. L'esprit d'entraide, les bonnes actions sans se soucier du profit personnel se sont renforcés. C'est toujours le cas aujourd'hui. »Wuhan tente de reprendre du poil de la bête, voulant à tout prix laisser derrière elles les stigmates de cette période douloureuse.À lire aussiChine: cinq ans après l'annonce du premier mort du Covid-19 à Wuhan, les stigmates demeurent

Strand, an actor and model from Los Angeles, offers a first-person account of the Capitol events and unpacks how he ended up on the FBI's ‘Most Wanted' list. He also discusses the aftermath, his new book Patriot Plea, and why he believes Americans must stand up and engage politically.
