Last Days of Pompeii by Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton audiobook. Last Days of Pompeii is a novel written by Edward Bulwer-Lytton in 1834. Once a very widely read book and now relatively neglected, it culminates in the cataclysmic destruction of the city of Pompeii by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The novel uses its characters to contrast the decadent culture of first-century Rome with both older cultures and coming trends. The protagonist, Glaucus, represents the Greeks who have been subordinated by Rome, and his nemesis Arbaces the still older culture of Egypt. Olinthus is the chief representative of the nascent Christian religion, which is presented favorably but not uncritically. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Beware of CDST's "Ideas for March -- A Little Side Caesar" Show ... it's a real head grabber, as we plunge into month no. 3 with some classic Edward G., reflect on what it is to ride with naked abandon into the Goldeneye or the storm, dine on square eggs and Hot Kabobs at The Green Acres café and attend Wave practice with Bruno and Billy at the Meadowlands. On the way, we'll run some numbers and do some heavy math in advance of Tournament seedings, consider who's in the pole position for NBA and NHL playoffs, and after doing this math take a much need lesson in empathy from Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath. It's a veritable feast for your eyes and ears that'll get rid of the overhang of post-partem Super Bowl stupor. Brought you by Law Offices of Brandon S. Chabner and ChabDog Sports Blog.

Les cultures de riz pluvial au Sénégal accuseraient une baisse de 50% des rendements d'ici à 2100. Si rien ne change, c'est le scénario qui se profile, d'après une étude du Cirad, (Centre de coopération internationale en recherche agronomique pour le développement) de l'IRD et de l'ISRA, Institut Sénégalais de Recherches Agricoles. Ses auteurs recommandent l'adaptation des variétés et des pratiques culturales. C'est un produit de base : un Sénégalais consomme entre 70 et 80 kilos de riz par an. Sur cette moyenne, 12 kilos de riz pluvial –donc non irrigué- sont produits au Sénégal dans des exploitations familiales. Mais d'après les projections du Giec, le groupe d'experts intergouvernemental sur l'évolution du climat, cette culture est menacée. « Dans le pire des scénarios, les rendements seront divisés par deux, donc cela sera pratiquement impossible de cultiver du riz pluvial au Sénégal dans les zones où il est actuellement cultivé, explique Edward Gérardeaux agronome et chercheur au Cirad. D'une part, si l'on continue à émettre autant de CO2, on va avoir une telle augmentation de température que la culture va souffrir de stérilité au moment de la floraison, et le cycle va être tellement raccourci que la culture n'aura pas le temps de remplir ses grains. Ensuite la pluviométrie va baisser. » Quelles stratégies adopter ? Même si la hausse du CO2 dans l'atmosphère devrait – au contraire – « booster la croissance des plantes » et augmenter les rendements, « les effets positifs ne pourront pas contrebalancer les pertes dues à la chaleur » selon l'étude. Mais les chercheurs du Cirad avancent des recommandations proposant notamment une adaptation variétale, autrement dit choisir des variétés de riz plus résistantes à la chaleur, et plus économes en eau. Et en parallèle, une adaptation des techniques de culture. « À travers des modifications du calendrier des dates de cultures, des dates de semis, ou à travers des aménagements qui peuvent être faits sur les parcelles, d'utilisation de mulch, c'est-à-dire de paillage, des résidus de récoltes qu'on va laisser sur la parcelle, qui va réduire l'évaporation, qui va permettre une meilleure infiltration des pluies, qui va permettre que la culture ait plus d'eau disponible », détaille Edward Gérardeaux. D'après le chercheur, et selon les projections du Giec, d'autres cultures au Sénégal, comme le mil, le maïs ou le sorgho, pourraient également être impactées par les effets des changements climatiques.

While Batman and Superman previously set records with the sales of their debut comics, Spider-Man has officially taken the crown, thanks to a recent sale by Heritage Auctions. Amazing Fantasy #15 is the first issue in which Spider-Man, Marvel's most iconic superhero, appeared in comics. A copy of the original issue was sold this week for a whopping $3.6 million, making it the most expensive single comic issue of all time. The 1962 Marvel Comics issue breaks a record that was set by DC's Superman debut earlier this year. An issue of Action Comics #1, which debuted in 1938, previously sold for $3.25 million, which was the biggest sale at the time. The issue of Amazing Fantasy #15 that broke the sales record this week is one of the highest-graded issues of that comic in the entire world. That specific issue is graded CGC 9.6, meaning it's in near mint condition. It is one of only four issues to receive that grading. There are no copies graded CGC 9.8, the next-highest grading on the scale.14th September 2021 – 20th anniversary of Gamecube released in Japan - https://www.kotaku.com.au/2021/09/the-nintendo-gamecube-turns-twenty-today/On September 14, 2001, the GameCube first went on sale for the first time in Japan. Two months later, on November 18, the console was released in North America. Facing off against the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox, the GameCube was the first Nintendo console to use optical discs — though, the console wasn't designed to play DVDs or CDs like its rivals could. While the console was no all-inclusive living room entertainment hub, the GameCube did the video gaming part extremely well and boasted a solid library, including Super Smash Bros. Melee, Metroid Prime, Pikmin, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Chibi-Robo!, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, among many others, such as third party exclusives like Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader as well as Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, which was a Metal Gear Solid remake co-developed by Silicon Knights that featured new cutscenes by filmmaker Ryuhei Kitamura of Godzilla: Final Wars fame. One of the most last legacies of the GameCube has been its controller. This is a controller design so good — so perfect — that Smash pros were getting their old ones repaired and that Nintendo even re-released it just for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for Nintendo Switch. Nintendo launched the Wii in 2006 and a year later, the previous gen console was discontinued. It wasn't the success that Nintendo hoped, but it occupies an important place in game console history.16th September 2021 – 100th anniversary of Sir Norman Brearley's first scheduled air service - https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-16/brearley-commemorative-flight/100463236 A century after an accomplished young pilot made his mark on aviation history, 55 people have boarded 23 planes for a flight to commemorate his daring feat. The fleet departed Geraldton today as part of a tour following the route of Australia's first scheduled air service, which left the city for Derby on December 5, 1921, under the leadership of Major Norman Brearley. Later knighted for his services to aviation, Major Brearly had returned from the aerial battlefields of World War I with a swag of awards for bravery. He had survived being shot down in no man's land during the war and crawling back to English lines with bullet holes in both lungs. But the experience did little to dampen his enthusiasm for flying, and after the war he won a contract to launch the first scheduled air service in the country. The service was to change the lives of remote West Australians who had previously relied on boat and rail for mail and passenger transport.17th September 2021 – Home computing pioneer Sir Clive Sinclair dies passes away at 81 - https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/sep/16/home-computing-pioneer-sir-clive-sinclair-dies-aged-81 Sir Clive Sinclair, the inventor and entrepreneur who was instrumental in bringing home computers to the masses. Sinclair invented the pocket calculator but was best known for popularising the home computer, bringing it to British high-street stores at relatively affordable prices. Many modern-day titans of the games industry got their start on one of his ZX models. For a certain generation of gamer, the computer of choice was either the ZX Spectrum 48K or its rival, the Commodore 64. Elon Musk, the Tesla and SpaceX chief, commented on Twitter on an article calling Sir Clive the father of the ZX Spectrum: “RIP, Sir Sinclair. I loved that computer.” In the early 1970s he designed a series of calculators designed to be small and light enough to fit in the pocket at a time when most existing models were the size of an old-fashioned shop till. “He wanted to make things small and cheap so people could access them,” his daughter said. His first home computer, the ZX80, named after the year it appeared, revolutionised the market, although it was a far cry from today's models. At £79.95 in kit form and £99.95 assembled, it was about one-fifth of the price of other home computers at the time. It sold 50,000, units while its successor, the ZX81, which replaced it, cost £69.95 and sold 250,000. Many games industry veterans got their start typing programs into its touch-based keyboard and became hooked on games such as as 3D Monster Maze and Mazogs. Sinclair became a household name as his products flew off the shelves and was awarded a knighthood in 1983. But he would also become synonymous with one of his less successful inventions – the Sinclair C5 – which would cost him financially. He died from an illness related to cancer that he had for over a decade, in London.Remembrances14th September 1712 – Giovanni Domenico Cassini - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giovanni_Domenico_CassiniAn Italian (naturalised French) mathematician, astronomer and engineer. Cassini was born in Perinaldo, near Imperia, at that time in the County of Nice, part of the Savoyard state. Cassini is known for his work on astronomy and engineering. He discovered four satellites of the planet Saturn and noted the division of the rings of Saturn; the Cassini Division was named after him. Giovanni Domenico Cassini was also the first of his family to begin work on the project of creating a topographic map of France. The Cassini space probe, launched in 1997, was named after him and became the fourth to visit the planet Saturn and the first to orbit the planet. Cassini observed and published surface markings on Mars (earlier seen by Christiaan Huygens but not published), determined the rotation periods of Mars and Jupiter, and discovered four satellites of Saturn: Iapetus and Rhea in 1671 and 1672, and Tethys and Dione (1684).Cassini was the first to observe these four moons, which he called Sidera Lodoicea (the stars of Louis), including Iapetus, whose anomalous variations in brightness he correctly ascribed as being due to the presence of dark material on one hemisphere (now called Cassini Regio in his honour). In addition he discovered the Cassini Division in the rings of Saturn (1675). He shares with Robert Hooke credit for the discovery of the Great Red Spot on Jupiter (ca. 1665). Around 1690, Cassini was the first to observe differential rotation within Jupiter's atmosphere.Cassini initially held the Earth to be the centre of the Solar System, though later observations compelled him to accept the model of the Solar System proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus, and eventually that of Tycho Brahe. "In 1659 he presented a model of the planetary system that was in accord with the hypothesis of Nicolaus Copernicus. In 1661 he developed a method, inspired by Kepler's work, of mapping successive phases of solar eclipses; and in 1662 he published new tables of the sun, based on his observations at San Petronio." Cassini also rejected Newton's theory of gravity, after measurements he conducted which wrongly suggested that the Earth was elongated at its poles. More than forty years of controversy about the subject were closed in favour of Newton's theory after the measurements of the French Geodesic Mission (1736 to 1744) and the Lapponian expedition in 1737 led by Pierre Louis Moreau de Maupertuis Cassini was also the first to make successful measurements of longitude by the method suggested by Galileo, using eclipses of the Galilean satellites as a clock.Attracted to the heavens in his youth, his first interest was in astrology. While young he read widely on the subject of astrology, and soon was very knowledgeable about it; this extensive knowledge of astrology led to his first appointment as an astronomer. Later in life he focused almost exclusively on astronomy and all but denounced astrology as he became increasingly involved in the Scientific Revolution.In 1653, Cassini, wishing to employ the use of a meridian line, sketched a plan for a new and larger meridian line but one that would be difficult to build. His calculations were precise; the construction succeeded perfectly; and its success gave Cassini a brilliant reputation for working with engineering and structural works.In the 1670s, Cassini began work on a project to create a topographic map of France, using Gemma Frisius's technique of triangulation. The project was continued by his son Jacques Cassini and eventually finished by his grandson César-François Cassini de Thury and published as the Carte de Cassini in 1789 or 1793. It was the first topographic map of an entire country.Famous Birthdays14th September 1921 – Paul Poberezny - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_PobereznyAmerican aviator, entrepreneur, and aircraft designer. He founded the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) in 1953, and spent the greater part of his life promoting homebuilt aircraft. Poberezny is widely considered as the first person to have popularized the tradition of aircraft homebuilding in the United States. Through his work founding EAA and the organization's annual convention in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, he had the reputation of helping inspire millions of people to get involved in grassroots aviation. Many attribute his legacy with the growth and sustainment of the US general aviation industry in the later part of the 20th century and into the early 21st. For the last two decades of his tenure as chairman of the EAA from 1989–2009, he worked closely with his son, aerobatic pilot and former EAA president Tom Poberezny, to expand the organization and create several new programs within it, including an aviation education program for youth and the EAA Museum, among other initiatives. Poberezny was inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in 1999, received the Wright Brothers Memorial Trophy in 2002, and was ranked fourth on Flying's list of the 51 Heroes of Aviation; he was the highest-ranked living person on the list at the time of its release. Poberezny founded the Experimental Aircraft Association out of his Hales Corners, Wisconsin home in 1953. It started as predominately an aircraft homebuilding organization in his basement, but later went on to capture all aspects of general aviation internationally.Poberezny flew over 500 aircraft types, including over 170 home-built planes throughout his life. He was introduced to aviation in 1936 at the age of 16 with the gift of a donated damaged WACO Primary Glider that he rebuilt and taught himself to fly. A high school teacher owned the glider and offered to pay Poberezny to repair it. He hauled it to his father's garage, borrowed books on building/repairing airplanes, and completed the restoration soon after. A friend used his car to tow the glider into the air with Poberezny at the controls; it rose to around a hundred feet when he released the tow rope and coasted to a gentle landing in a bed of alfalfa. A year later, Poberezny soloed at age 17 in a 1935 Porterfield and soon co-owned an American Eagle biplane.After returning home from World War II, Poberezny could not afford to buy his own aircraft, so he decided to build one himself. In 1955, he wrote a series of articles for the publication Mechanix Illustrated, where he described how an individual could buy a set of plans and build an airplane at home. In the magazine were also photos of himself fabricating the Baby Ace, an amateur-built aircraft (and the first to be marketed as a "homebuilt") that he bought the rights to for US$200 a few years prior. The articles became extremely popular and gave the concept of homebuilding worldwide acclaim.He designed, modified, and built several home-built aircraft, and had more than 30,000 hours of flight time in his career. Aircraft that he designed and built include:Acro Sport I & II"Little Audrey"Poberezny P-5 Pober SportPober Jr AcePober PixiePober Super AceHe was born in Leavenworth County, KansasEvents of Interest14th September 1914 – HMAS AE1, the Royal Australian Navy's first submarine, is lost at sea with all hands near East New Britain, Papua New Guinea. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMAS_AE1#Deployment_and_loss At 07:00 on 14 September, AE1 departed Blanche Bay, Rabaul, to patrol off Cape Gazelle with HMAS Parramatta. When she had not returned by 20:00, several ships were dispatched to search for her. No trace of the submarine was found, and she was listed as lost with all hands. The disappearance was Australia's first major loss of World War I. After the discovery of the submarine in December 2017, Rear Admiral Peter Briggs, retired, said the likely cause of its loss was a diving accident. He added: The submarine appears to have struck the bottom with sufficient force to dislodge the fin from its footing, forcing it to hinge forward on its leading edge, impacting the casing. On 14 September 2018, a team of researchers headed by the National Maritime Museum director Kevin Sumption concluded their investigation into the sinking of AE1. They concluded that a ventilation valve, which was likely open to make the tropical conditions a little more bearable while the submarine was cruising on the surface near the Duke of York Islands, was insecure when the submarine dived, causing a flood of the submarine's engine room and total loss of control of the AE1. The submarine subsequently sank below 100 metres and imploded, killing everyone on board instantly.14th September 2007 – The Dark Hour premiered in Spain - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0484273/ On this day in 2007 (in Spain), The Dark Hour enjoyed its theatrical release. The SciFi/Horror starred Omar Muñoz and Pepo Oliva, and here's the plot summary : "The eight year old boy Jesús has been living in a crumbling underground facility since he was born with eight survivors of an apocalyptic war: the leader Maria and her lover Pablo; the gays Lucas and Mateo; the astronomer Magdalena and the teenager Ana; the soldier Pedro and the lonely Judas. They are permanently under surveillance, threatened by the contaminated mutants The Strangers and once a day they have to lock themselves in their rooms without heating to protect against the dangerous ghosts The Invisibles that attack in the Cold Hour. They cannot go to the surface, destroyed by a nuclear war. When they need supplies, medications and ammunition, they organize expeditions to a store. When the menace of The Invisibles affects the safety of the group of survivors, they need to reach the surface."IntroArtist – Goblins from MarsSong Title – Super Mario - Overworld Theme (GFM Trap Remix)Song Link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNMe6kF0j0&index=4&list=PLHmTsVREU3Ar1AJWkimkl6Pux3R5PB-QJFollow us onFacebook- Page - https://www.facebook.com/NerdsAmalgamated/- Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/440485136816406/Twitter - https://twitter.com/NAmalgamatedSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/6Nux69rftdBeeEXwD8GXrSiTunes - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/top-shelf-nerds/id1347661094Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/nerds_amalgamated/Email - Nerds.Amalgamated@gmail.comSupport via Podhero- https://podhero.com/podcast/449127/nerds-amalgamated See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In our discussion of the Film Noir Classic Double Indemnity we talk Nazis, German Expressionism, women in the workplace, censorship, femme fatales, anti-heroes, wigs, a turning point of American culture, and drive through bars. Y'know, the regular stuff. Double Indemnity is a 1944 American psychological thriller film noir directed by Billy Wilder, co-written by Wilder and Raymond Chandler, and produced by Buddy DeSylva and Joseph Sistrom. The screenplay was based on James M. Cain's 1943 novel of the same name, which originally appeared as an eight-part serial in Liberty magazine, beginning in February 1936. The film stars Fred MacMurray as an insurance salesman, Barbara Stanwyck as a provocative housewife who wishes her husband were dead, and Edward G. Robinson as a claims adjuster whose job is to find phony claims. The term "double indemnity" refers to a clause in certain life insurance policies that doubles the payout in rare cases when the death is accidental.

Gen. David McMurtrie Gregg (1833–1917) was one of the ablest and most successful commanders of cavalry in any Civil War army. Pennsylvania-born, West Point–educated, and deeply experienced in cavalry operations prior to the conflict, his career personified that of the typical cavalry officer in the mid-nineteenth-century American army. Gregg achieved distinction on many battlefields, including those during the Peninsula, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Bristoe, Overland, and Petersburg campaigns, ultimately gaining the rank of brevet major general as leader of the Second Division, Cavalry Corps, Army of the Potomac. The highlight of his service occurred on July 3, 1863, the climactic third day at Gettysburg, when he led his own command as well as the brigade of Brig. Gen. George Armstrong Custer in repulsing an attempt by thousands of Confederate cavalry under the legendary J. E. B. Stuart in attacking the right flank and rear of the Union Army while Pickett's charge struck its front and center. Historians credit Gregg with helping preserve the security of his army at a critical point, making Union victory inevitable. Unlike glory-hunters such as Custer and Stuart, Gregg was a quietly competent veteran who never promoted himself or sought personal recognition for his service. Rarely has a military commander of such distinction been denied a biographer's tribute. Gregg's time is long overdue. Edward G. Longacre is a retired historian for the U.S. Department of Defense and the award-winning author of numerous books on the Civil War.

In the last 5-10 years Turkey-Canada relations have been shaped by Armenian lobby activity, Canadians' choice of Turkey as a favourite tourist destination and Turkish diplomats' use of Gülenist social and cultural networks, Bruce Mabley, a Canadian former diplomat to Turkey, told Edward G.

Mabley maintained that there are no major conflicts between the two countries. “On a scale of 1 to 10 Canadian Turkish relations in last 5 years I would put it at around 7,” Mabley said.

Double Indemnity is a 1944 film noir from director Billy Wilder. The writing process for this flick proved to be quite the double-teaming, with Wilder partnering with hardboiled author Raymond Chandler to pen the thriller. The story is based on the 1943 novella by James M. Cain. The central story is a noir classic: a sultry femme fatale teams up with a dupe working as an insurance salesman to kill her husband. Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanywck as the main murderous duo. But can they get away with murder with a dogged claims adjuster portrayed by Edward G. Robinson on the case?Áine and Kevin are here to dole out a lump sum of compliments to this excellent noir, and discuss what makes this film a double dose of cynicism and heartbreak. And beware! This review contains spoilers!Follow us on the usual social media suspects:FacebookTwitterInstagramAnd send us mysterious and intriguing missives at mysterytomepodcast@gmail.com.Want to watch the flick and toss us a kickback at the same time?

Rabbi Kivelevitz questions Rabbi Kolakowski as to the number of cases where he has heard the imprisoned person claim that he was completely innocent.To Kivelevitz's surprise, Kolokowski responds that only one inmate that he has served, has stated that that the crime he was purported to have committed was a complete fiction.Kolakowski recounts the background and his interactions with a well known Rabbi who was convicted in 2009 of transporting a minor in foreign commerce for the purpose of engaging in criminal sexual activity and for engaging in sexual conduct with a minor.The pair recount a number of famous Jewish heroes ,patriarchs and martyrs who have been falsely accused, imprisoned and subject to suffering.(Avraham Avinu ,Yosef HaTzadik ,Rav Schneur Zalman of Liadi, Colonel Alfred Dreyfus,Leo Frank)Y.K.'s Not quite Innocent/Not really guilty Movie and TV recommendations are Edward G. Ulmer's noir-classic, Detour ,Vincent Price's first star turn, The Invisible Man Returns, and the first season Simpsons episode Krusty Gets Busted .A.K.'s list of wrongly accused and imprisoned films are drawn primarily from the work of Alfred Hitchcock, who uses the inscrutable oppressive hand of fate as a theme throughout his career. A.K. suggests strongly to savor, The 39 Steps, Saboteur, I Confess,The Wrong Man, and especially the films that were the apex of Hitchcock's career, North By Northwest, and The Birds. Another treat that features a man imprisoned wrongly ,is Preston Sturges' hilarious ,moving, masterpiece, Sullivan's Travels, with its strikingly poignant climax that was a milestone for a dignified representation of African-Americans on screen.For listeners who want to hear a ballad on the theme of the authorities rush to judge and convict and unfair treatment of people of color ,A.K. offers Bob Dylan's, The Hurricane.Kolakowski is the Facility Chaplaincy Program Director at the The State Correctional Institution (SCI) at Waymart, Pennsylvania. The institution is a medium security prison facility housing 1,100 inmates and a 120 bed Forensic Treatment Center, which provides inpatient psychiatric treatment in a secure setting for adult male offenders.Kolakowski is the first Rabbi in the history of the Commonwealth to serve as head chaplain in a state prison.Prior to his present position, he served pulpits and chaplaincy positions in Virginia and Upstate New York.The Rabbi has emerged as a talented speaker in areas of religion, politics, spirituality, popular culture, history, and interfaith affairs. He has created an extremely popular YouTube channel with thousands of followers.Kolakowski unashamedly recounts his personal history. While his mother was raised in a Modern Orthodox home in Queens, his father is a devout Roman Catholic. He had a bris in an Orthodox synagogue but was also baptized in a Catholic church.His maternal grandparents encouraged him to have a bar mitzvah in their Orthodox Shul which spurred the young Kolakowski to adopt a frum lifestyle.At eighteen, he spent a year in a Yeshiva in Yerushalayim, whose environs drew him into Hasidic practice and philosophy .Kolakowski went on to study for and receive semichah at Yeshiva Or Kedoshim Biala in Brooklyn. He recognized the need to obtain a B.A. in psychology from Lander College for Men .Hearing the call to become a communal leader, he matriculated to Touro College for a postgraduate certificate in Advanced Rabbinics and Synagogue Management in conjunction with the National Council of Young Israel and the Young Israel Council of Rabbis.Rabbi Kolakowski's English translation of sefer Seder HaYom by the late Biala Rebbe was published in 2006 in Israel to wide acclaim.He can be reached at josephkolakowski@gmail.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

RIP Brian Dennehy. The late, great, rotund actor makes a guest appearance on this first season episode, and he's really the only good thing about it. It's a straight up rip-off of John Huston's Key Largo, but without Bogie, Becall, and Edward G.

The final chapter of Episode 2 Chapter 3 takes you up to the night of June 30, 1863, the eve of the Battle of Gettysburg. Where Are The Armies Now? General Hooker spent June 26 moving his army across the Potomac. By nightfall, everyone was in Maryland except John Sedgwick’s Sixth Corps and a portion of the cavalry. Frederick, Maryland, Hooker decided, would become the army’s point of concentration. The first wing of the Union Army to cross the Potomac, were the three corps under the command of Major General John F Reynolds. Contrary to their orders, Confederate Cavalry commanders, Beverly Robertson and Grumble Jones failed to report this movement to JEB Stuart. Back in Washington, Lincoln began showing signs of doubt in Hooker, according to Navy Secretary Gideon Welles, when he said, “Hooker may commit the same fault as McClellan and lose his chance.” But Lincoln quickly added a sign of hope when he said, “We shall soon see, but it appears to me he can’t help but win.”...

Details, credits, errata: Episode 13: Swords AND Sandals? In This Economy? is written by Sam Thielman and Alissa Wilkinson. Our special guest is Caitlin Mae Burke, supervising producer of Field of Vision’s IF/Then Shorts initiative; she is the first honest-to-goodness movie producer we’ve had on the show and she was fantastic.She forced us to watch The Ten Commandments (1956), Cecil B. DeMille’s nearly four-hour Biblical extravaganza starring Charlton Heston as Moses, Yul Brynner as Pharoah, Vincent Price, Edward G. Robinson, Anne Baxter, Yvonne DeCarlo, and the rest of the population of the planet as supernumerary slaves, Israelites, Egyptian soldiers, and so on. It won an Oscar for special effects and features some of the hammiest acting from Heston you’ve ever seen in your life but is otherwise not without its charms and Sam retains a soft spot for Vincent Price.Our episode art on the website is The Crossing of the Red Sea, a fresco of uncertain attribution, narrowed down to three 15th-century painters: Domenico Ghirlandaio, Biagio d'Antonio or Cosimo Rosselli. It resides at the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City and is in the public domain; the photo of the painting is generously made available through Wikimedia Commons. The Egyptian soldiers are in traditional Italian military gear, and you can see a hailstorm showing Egypt who’s boss in the upper right while Mt. Sinai looms on the upper left. The “pillar of cloud” described in the Bible—cloud by day, fire by night, which guided the Israelites through the desert for forty years, using a generous definition of the word “through,” is realized by the painter or painters as a literal pillar on the water, which, I have to say, would be pretty scary to see, so you can understand why the Egyptians seem worried beyond mere drowning.Our theme song is Louis Armstrong and His Hot 5’s Muskrat Ramble, made freely available by the Boston Public Library and audio engineering shop George Blood, LP through the Internet Archive.

In episode #14, Tanya interviews Camille about her decades of work in exploring the consciousness of love. Camille has embodied many roles in her career - as a hospice nurse, a filmmaker, mindfulness and emotional intelligence leader and Family Constellation facilitator, but at the heart of it all is the ability to be truly present with what is. Camille shares her path of being called into various career expressions leading into experiences of emotional intimacy, and what it really means to be with another person, to be transformed by love. Their conversation goes into the true meaning of presence in the face of life and death, moving into our vulnerability, and the impact of family, societal and ancestral systems in our healing. On love: “We do it all out of love. It can either be blind love or enlightened love. Blind love means we're doing things unconsciously. When you do this work, you can transition those elements of blind love in your system, in your life, into enlightened love. And when you do that, you understand, and then you really belong. And so does everyone else and everything else. You actually become a force of love in your own system. ” Camille Adair Episode Transcript [00:00:01] Restoring the Culture is hosted by Tanya Taylor, Rubinstein Story mentor, and Camille Adair, family constellation facilitator. In this podcast, these long term friends explore how stories serve our lives. Their inquiry meanders into the realms of science, theater, health and consciousness, moving the individual and global narratives forward as they draw upon their relationship as the laboratory for their experiments. In truth, so many of us feel isolated and alone in our deepest longing. Each one of us is necessary rediscovering the truth of our human story and listening to what is calling us forward so that we can restoring the culture together. [00:00:53] Hi, everybody, this is Tonya Taylor Rubenstein here with my dear friend Camille Adair. And we are here on restoring the culture today. And I'm so excited about this episode because I get to interview Camille. [00:01:10] About the evolution of her work. Her work in the world. [00:01:18] As so many things, an ancestral family, constellation, facilitator, nurse. [00:01:28] Camille, I'm going to let you talk about all the things you've done. Emotional intelligence work. It's it's so complex and so multilayered. But I'm so excited because I benefited from your work might. My daughter has benefited from your work. My husband has benefited from your work. [00:01:45] My clients all over the world, writing books in shows have benefited from your work. So it it means so much to me. You and who you are and your work in the world to me is inseparable from your heart and your soul as a person. [00:02:06] So I'm super psyched to talk to you today. [00:02:09] My thank you so much. That's that's such a very beautiful welcome into the conversation. And you've definitely been on this path with me for for quite a number of years. So when I think about my work in the world, I immediately go back to the years I spent working with dying people in hospice. And I've thought about their contribution to the work I do now. And and I think I was really exposed to different states of consciousness when I was with the dying and that. Wired. Something in me that led me to sort of these other modalities that I've incorporated into my work. But when I go back to it, there is it really is about a state of being. So it's you know, we can talk about all these things, emotional intelligence and mindfulness and constellation work. But I think that for me, underneath all of that, there's a fundamental state of consciousness. That is different than mind awareness. That is a profound dropping into something deeper, that is beyond words that I am tethered to that no matter what what I do. [00:03:32] So I do think that they were in a way, I was their hospice nurse and they were my teachers. [00:03:38] They were my train hers for the total of the work that I'd be doing in this life. And I have because I started in my mid thirties, I was so young. [00:03:46] Can we talk about that a little bit? For those who don't know, I I just jotted this down because you were very young. And I know that once you told me, if I'm remembering correctly, that when you began to train as a nurse, you were called to either hospice work or pediatrics like babies. Right. What is that? I want it. [00:04:09] Yeah, it was. Yeah. I wanted to either, you know, be there for birth or be there for death. I knew that. [00:04:14] Yeah. So can you talk about just that Genesis and the call and you, you are considered young, you were considered quite young to go into hospice work. [00:04:24] I was and I yeah. So I, I remember being a nursing student and I did some you know, I had mandatory clinical hours in the Labor Labor and delivery department at the local hospital. And I've known quite a number of midwives in my time and considered being a midwife when I was having my own babies, you know, over 30 years ago. And. But I just I just sort of knew, like, no, this isn't quite the place. The energy is very similar. But I felt really called to be with dying people. [00:05:03] I think part of that is that there's so much celebration around birth. Right. I mean, it's such a happy time. And it's not that I didn't want to be around happy times, but I think on some soul level, something I can't even really articulate. There was a part of me that needed to go to the deepest taboo subject in our culture, which is death, and get close to it. Because I just I think intuitively knew there was so much wisdom and so much about living that we were cut off from. [00:05:39] If I could go into those depths and into those shadow places and be there with those people. And I did it got to the point actually where. [00:05:50] It was almost a sort of a form of burnout, at one point I was more comfortable being with dying people than I was being with people who were oriented to being alive. Because it felt more real, it felt more genuine. You know, people who are dying are taking stock of the most important things in their lives. And it's a process of synthesis and review and deep contemplation. And. [00:06:16] And that really spoke to, I think, the truth of who I am. [00:06:20] And so at some point I had to take a break because I just I needed to get myself back into feeling excited about a future for myself. [00:06:30] I really just sort of the future dropped away and I was really living in the moment with these people. [00:06:36] And then you made a film about death and dying, too. I do. Solace, which is an amazing documentary. If people haven't watched that, I encourage them to look it up since they can see it online. But you had some amazing luminaries and there. Right, Steve and I try a la vine style of action that are Barbra and Larry Dossey. [00:06:56] Can you talk about really, you know, what that film did for you personally? Because the work is out there and stands alone. But what did it do for you? And how did what you learned from those people, not just the luminaries, but the hospice patients you were following? [00:07:18] How did that walk you into the next part of your own evolution? [00:07:23] I think the fact that I trusted the call, you know, I was not a documentary filmmaker. I was I was seeing a patient of my abiquiu. And I remember feeling literally feeling like a camera on my shoulder was almost this old fashioned feel of a camera, you know, and. And I just I knew I was supposed to make a documentary film because I wanted to show some of the things, the beautiful things I was seeing that people didn't get a chance to see, sort of like bringing death out of the closet. I think because I trusted that voice and because I did the hard work of all that it took to make that movie and then to make eleven additional teaching videos that followed that. I had an experience early on in that first, you know, I would say the first couple of years it felt like I was pushing this big boulder uphill. And then at one point it was literally like there was a river for a reversal of energy. The momentum changed. [00:08:24] And all of a sudden, it was like all of this support just started coming in from the most unexpected places. And it literally felt like something. Just as I was getting tired, something started pushing me from behind. And then I had an amazing dream where I was given a gift and a dream. And I was told by a voice, this great voice that said, this is your gift for making solace. [00:08:48] You get one tossed about this one. Yeah, I did. I did the Tadcaster Yosfiah podcast. I asked you a question based. That's right. [00:08:55] But just that it was it felt like such a profound thing that I think it gave me permission to walk into even deeper waters if there could be deeper waters than death. I think that prepared me. [00:09:11] What were the deeper waters? [00:09:13] Well, I think. I think facing our own I think, you know, the next part of it was facing, you know, you know, the reality of what it means to be alive, I think is actually sometimes a harder thing for us to face than death to be truly alive. Right. [00:09:31] Means to face yourself, means to be open to feeling your feelings, means to to get to some kind of a state of consciousness, really, where you see that you are not just your thoughts and your feelings. [00:09:44] And I think getting to that place can be sort of you can go into some existential realms that are easy places to be. Right. And and I went there and I mean, I've always said, you know, especially the last few years, if I can just live as a human woman before I die, that will be the miracle. Death isn't the miracle. Living in our living is our human selves and being able to love and be loved. That's the miracle I think you and I. [00:10:17] That's such a part of what we share in our friendship. Because I think we both have that same shared quest. And lately I've been saying enlightenment doesn't mean much to me these days without embodiment. That's right. Out and real met without its right feet connected to the dirt, walking, feeling our bodies. It's our frailty, right? Our vulnerability. [00:10:44] Exactly. All of that. I mean, that's really what we're here to do. And yet we have found all kinds of ways to avoid that. [00:10:53] Can you talk about what aliveness looks like specifically for you these days? What what are your upper limits around? What are you still wanting to move into to have a sense of your full aliveness? What's that progression been and where is it going? [00:11:11] I think for me, the aliveness really has to do with being. Being with my own experience and and to allow my heart, its full expression, to allow my body, its full expression, what I'm finding as I do that more and more is that the results of that are completely unexpected and still in some ways unknown. [00:11:39] Right. It's sort of like, you know, you use you do something or you have an experience of something. [00:11:45] And then all of a sudden there's a ripple effect and you're like, oh, there's that ripple effect. And so, you know, there are ripple effects and there's just no way for us to track all the ripple effects. I think I think if if I could look at, you know, the tag line on my Web site is re learning human connection, I actually think. My why I'm here. And the big through line for all of this is that technology is love is our greatest technology. We have this incredible human nervous system that is our wiring and the technology of our bodies and our, you know, our gut and heart intelligence and all of this that are like the vehicle for how we have this interplay with love. And I think love is the next frontier, it's the new frontier, I think it's what we're we're gonna become explorers of love. And I do believe that that is. [00:12:44] How we're going to move into sort of the next phase of life on Earth. [00:12:51] I think it's our call. [00:12:54] And I think I'm just starting to get to know love. I think love is a huge energy and I think I'm learning about what it means to be in a state of love with love and to be changed by love because it is not easy to be changed by love. And so we can ask ourselves, what are we being changed by? Are we being changed by fear? Are we being changed by greed or power? Are we being changed by love? I think being changed by love can be terrifying. [00:13:29] Right. Those other things are the things that, you know, the the leaders and models of the world right now. [00:13:35] That's where that's what they were taught. They didn't know differently. That's what they were taught. That's the legacy that was passed on to them. [00:13:43] And it feels like annihilation to the ego. That's very hard to latch to that sense of being the leader and means that one has to really keep that ego sort of puffed up and intact. [00:13:57] That's the old paradigm, right? Vulnerable and transparent as love asks us to be. It's a different face of leadership, right? [00:14:06] It is a different face, and even when I go back to like the work I did with hospice patients, it was then that I started to learn how to build a field of love. [00:14:16] I learned that from them. And I'm continuing on that journey still. And I think that's what I'm learned here, to learn and to teach and to practice is how to build a force field of love as our greatest technology and our greatest catalyst forward. And I think I'm I'm doing that more and more. You know, I have people that are coming, you know, in2 do work with me who have been practicing certain things. [00:14:50] And so I don't feel at all like a lone wolf in this. I feel like I have some incredible colleagues and partners. And you're one of them. And you know about how how it is that we not only talk about this stuff and talk about it in terms of like a work offering, but how are we living it? [00:15:07] And I've spent quite a bit of time in personal practice building this this field, because as a nurse, I actually believe this is the new paradigm of mental health. [00:15:20] You know, when we talk about mental health, what we really hear is mental illness, right? That's right. We don't really have any kind of. [00:15:32] You know, a territory that we're used to exploring under the umbrella of mental health in the same way that we do spiritual health or physical health, mental health just makes us really think really mostly about mental illness. Right. You work with mental health. You do that because there's mental illness. And I I believe that a lot of mental illness is a result of not living into us, into who we are as a species. [00:16:00] I think we have forgotten how we're wired. I think we've forgotten what we're made for and what makes us well. [00:16:09] And so, you know, when I talk about building a force field of love, it would be easy for that to sound like it's way far afield. [00:16:18] I actually feel like we're going to be seeing mainstream research moving in this direction. [00:16:24] I see it everywhere right now. [00:16:27] And just in every form, like you said, so many of us are in this field doing this work and it's like, oh, yes, radical love in this form, too. Oh, yes. Radical love outside this form. Oh, yes. Radical love in activism. Oh, yes. Radical love in my own sematic killing. Radical love, you know, in whatever in the forms and no forms. Now so that's so different to me that it's like love is coming on some level out of the closet in a deeper way or not. It just feels right. Put into the forms of a socially acceptable to feel this wild love when you have a baby. Wild love when you fall in love with a romantic partner. That usually then changes when the shadow comes up. But this is like love in all forms. What's the what's the shift to the commitment of. [00:17:23] Radical, deep, abiding love and all form and no form when the commitment is to the field of love first. [00:17:31] Well, and I think I think we have our work cut out for us because I think most people. In their live lives as human. Animals and human beings and spiritual beings. Most people have not experienced. [00:17:54] A full expression of love, and I think there's so much wounding and hiding around that that we're not even aware of. And it's almost like we need to be rewired. And so a lot of the practices that I do are really tending to my own system. And how can I prepare my system to really start to work with other people? Because most people have such barriers to intimacy that when you like if I were to talk about love and leadership or love in or as part of organizational health, that is such a stretch. And even if somebody wanted me to come in, it no longer works anymore. [00:18:34] Unless people are willing and able to do the work. The hard work is facing their intimacy issues. And most people have such big intimacy issues because we don't know how and we don't know how to do it and feel safe. And there are ways of, you know, we went through the nineteen sixties and early 70s when, you know, sort of like that was the the time of free love. [00:18:58] And I would say that that was a movement towards something, but it also really traumatized death. A lot of people. Right. And it sort of gave free love, you know, because if you think about just those two terms. Right. Free and free. And it wasn't always law and it wasn't love. Exactly. So now maybe what I'm talking about is truly free. Love is what I think I am leaning into. [00:19:24] Well, and that the free love. Right. That has some kind of safety of containment. [00:19:30] It has completely safety. All about that. Absolutely. [00:19:35] And I think, you know, and a lot of people have abused intimacy in a lot of people have abused love and anger and power. And so I think for us to be able to face up to those shadow places, it's such a great liberation. I can say from personal experience, it's literally like new universes have opened up to me, inside of me and around me in terms of what's possible, in terms of my own consciousness. [00:20:08] Camille, could you talk about specific practices when you're talking about this? Sure. Talk about rewiring the nervous system, because I do want to get to your ancestral family constellation. Yeah, so amazing. But I think that might be helpful for our listeners to hear, like, what are your practices then and now and how are they evolving? [00:20:30] So I started out about. I don't know, over a decade ago, learning about a mindfulness practice and so that and I before that, I trained to be an emotional intelligence assessor. [00:20:45] I've now sort of put those two things together and combined them with some of what I offer in my family constellation training into this sort of model of systemic relational health. [00:20:57] So it's looking at systems, whether the system is. The individual person or their family or their community or their work environment. We can work with all different kinds of systems and looking at the influences of relational health and how to work with those things that are outside of conscious awareness. [00:21:17] So I would say it was the mindfulness and emotional intelligence after the death and dying work that really started to bring in this ability to be in the body with my emotions to, you know, to take a look at these states of overwhelm that I was experiencing as a nurse and get beneath it and try and find really what's the root feeling here? [00:21:39] What's motivating me and what's motivating my thoughts and my thinking. Because so often, I mean, I when I'm on social media or I'm even just out in the world, I'm blown away at how people talk about their thoughts, but they don't talk about their feelings. [00:21:55] And I think that that's because it's a way. It's it's a way for us to avoid our vulnerability is like how how how skilled are we in our thinking? [00:22:05] Right. But really, what we're being called to do is to talk about the feeling behind that. Right. Because that's where we have shared our shared humanity. That's where we can engage compassion for ourselves and for others. [00:22:17] But when we're just talking about our ideas and our opinions and our beliefs, you know, we basically are in this like, ultra polarized place in the world right now that I think takes us away from our humanity without the emotional and the body and peace. Right. What's going on in the body? So part of my practices has been for a long time. [00:22:42] The Shenzen Young has a method that I learned from his previous partner, Shelly Young, and she's a very skilled therapist. [00:22:54] And she teach. She has in her psychotherapy practice, she really uses a lot of the MDR coupled with this mindfulness practice. And you basically label through your senses, Sieff here feel on the inside and on the outside. [00:23:09] So that's how does this how does. You know, the fabric feel on my body? You know, what is the temperature of the air on my face? What are the thoughts going through my head? What's going on in my belly? You know, what's the feeling that's coming up? You know, when I have that thought, you know what if something tastes like. Smell like. [00:23:31] So it's really using the senses as a way of labeling. And there's been a lot of research now with this technique that when you do this practice of labeling you actually it sounds reductionistic. [00:23:44] But actually what happens is the opposite is that you become actually more of your full quantum being because of that, because you actually see by being able to label those things, you get more in touch with your witness self and you get to see that all of those things are a condition of having a body and a mind and a heart and all of these things that they're passing, they're constantly changing and passing in the practices to have no judgment. And when you do that practice long enough without judging it, it's it's almost like. [00:24:17] You know, you really you really enter into the domain of your true self by being able to inhabit that place, there's freedom there and freedom and again, in some sacred containment. [00:24:30] That's exactly right. That's right. [00:24:33] And as somebody who has struggled so much with ADHD, my freedom comes and containment. If it's all out there and it's just expression. Right. Or it's all given the same weight without being able to feel some agency and and containment around those things, it's just overwhelmed. [00:24:54] And there's so much quantum liberation. Yes. Right. And being able to just use those kind of simple tools. And they're so powerful. [00:25:04] They're so powerful. I mean, they really change the brain. They also bring us into the present moment. So it's also a practice of learning how to focus and learning how. [00:25:15] I heard a term that I liked from a friend years ago, and she called it free attention and she said so few people have free attention. And I thought, that's really true. I mean, how many people really know how to listen? Like, that's a sign of having free attention, being able to be really present for yourself or another person. And people pick up on that. That is not a small thing we know when we're in the presence of someone whose system can meet our system. I think it's one of the biggest gifts that we ever have. So the second part of my practice is the emotional intelligence work. And it's really difficult starting out in teaching this. It's really hard for people to think of a certain feeling where to identify how they feel. Oftentimes we get sort of flooded with this overwhelm or feeling busy. But we can't drop downs. [00:26:06] We use a lot of metaphors to try and get bring in an image of where someone is right now based on something. And then from there, we start linking it up to feeling words. And that can become part of positive psychology, because if you can then identify how you feel. Well, it calms the amygdala in the brain. So just the naming of how we feel doesn't matter how it is, right? It can be completely. You could be blissed out or too stressed out. It's the brain doesn't judge that. [00:26:38] It's just that when you don't know how you feel. [00:26:41] We you know, we end up having the amygdala is triggered and we stay and fight or flight. [00:26:47] So you called the amygdala. You calm the brain. You call the nervous system. And that's actually just a tool. That's a practice. And and then a more recent practice is being called. Co presence sing by some people. I think that it may. I haven't done any of Stephen Busby's trainings or work, but the people that I have done practice with have I think that some of it may have origins there, but it's also very much like my constellation work. And so I've been kind of referring to it as like. It's almost like a co constellation practice, and you can either be with another person right now and spend more time on Zoome than in person. But it's really powerful and zoom. And just looking at another person and holding presence with them and reporting what's happening in your body. And sometimes you can go for long stretches without saying anything. You can talk about what's happening emotionally. You can talk about. You can talk about whatever you want. But the practice is really to hold that and what will start to happen when you because there's a lot of research around this idea of CO. [00:28:04] Right. When we're with another our our nervous system, it's another nervous system. [00:28:09] Things happen that don't happen when we're alone. And it's very healing. [00:28:15] And so I'm sort of in my own incubator with a group of people right now. And we're working on this. And there's a lot of cross pollination in terms of some of the people that are in my practice group. [00:28:29] You know, there are people that are leaders internationally in IFRS. [00:28:37] There's another, you know, another colleague and friend of mine who's a constellation facilitator. So we're sort of like bringing these threads together and saying, oh, isn't it interesting? [00:28:49] We found this species that really knows that there is something about the intelligence of love that is the next thing. And and how do we how do we walk this out together? Because what we've found is that it's so disorienting. And again, what is going to change you are if you let love change you. It's not an easy thing. Rumi knew that, right. All you have to do is go back and read Rumi and it's like, oh, that's the process of transformation in the alchemical bath. [00:29:23] They talk about that, right? [00:29:25] You come into the inner marriage. We have the inner marriage by individuation. But there is a different kind of intermarriage. [00:29:32] And that happens when you do the practice with another or more than two people in terms of how it deepens. I think the alchemical process, that's what happens in analysis. [00:29:45] Right? You have the analyst and the analysis sound. And, you know, Carl Jung has all those, you know, Drew, on those pictures of alchemy about when you're in the alchemical bath together, you are both changed. [00:29:57] So this is the new paradigm. This is the new model is that it's not practitioner and client to any longer. [00:30:03] It's that you come in together and you're both changed, you know, and that that upsets our power dynamics quite a bit. Isn't it wonderful? It's wonderful. [00:30:15] I mean, this is now what we're being called to you. And I talk about this all the time. And as you've been talking the last several months about the present saying work you've been doing, it has reminded me a lot of early acting theater work I did with one teacher in particular who understood had done a lot of spiritual work himself. And a lot of I've been trained years ago out at the White Institute as a past life regression therapist. What not. But he was on to something very cosmic because he believed theater could be used as an awakening process. And we were doing something in Group Weekly that was the presence saying practice and we changed partners. And of course, it's also rooted in Tantra. [00:30:59] That's right. There are there definitely is a contract there. There are definitely elements of Tantra. And here again, how to do that and that it's not sexual. No. [00:31:08] Though it was about intimacy. That way it gets twisted. Not that it can't be taken in that direction, but that it was about changing partners, not in a sexual way, in about getting used to intimacy. [00:31:20] A, we were being called to bring that into our theater work and into our solo performance work. [00:31:26] So I you know, I love and everything we're talking about. Power dynamics are being up ended now as we're all here bringing our gifts together in these collaborative threads and totally new ways. [00:31:42] Exactly. It's pretty exciting. And it's also a big mystery, like we don't know. [00:31:49] Now, this is a big paradigm. The new all of the new emerging paradigms that it's so much of a mystery. We're living in two. I do want to before we. And have you at least for a few moments. Because to be your ancestral constellation, work is so uniquely powerful. And I've worked with other facilitators. This comes out of, you know, Burt Helen Jr's work, the the German facilitator who created this methodology. I know he was inspired by it from the Zulu tribe and work he'd done. [00:32:25] But I'd love for you to talk a little bit about the core essence of this work and perhaps why it's so relevant. I would say honestly to everyone, yeah, you're right. It is in the world today doing ancestral work. Why is it so relevant, so important? And anything you want to say about what you've discovered, about how and why it works? [00:32:56] I think the thing that's most relevant for me just really put in those those simple Potente terms is that it gives us a different way of understanding, cause and effect. [00:33:10] I think we've been misled about cause and effect, and I think that we are caught in the trap of cause and effect that keeps us from being empowered. And when we when we can understand the principles that guide. [00:33:27] Constellation work, and we understand that what has happened in the past can be carried forward into future generations and it can be motivating us in ways that we have absolutely no idea that it really is. Again, that's happening out of love. [00:33:46] Any disturbance that manifests as addiction, that manifests as, you know, mental health issues, challenges, mental illness issues around money, issues, around power, issues around intimacy. [00:34:04] All of those things we are a walking, talking, breathing manifestation of the ancestors who came before us. [00:34:12] And so the more we can get back in touch with them and the more we can learn from the knowing field what it is that's being asked of us. That's really when we start to wake up to who we really are and what we're here to do. And that's not something that you're going to see in someone's resume. [00:34:32] Right. [00:34:33] That's that's not a business plan or a vision statement that really is being willing to step into these sessions that reveal things to us. And I think once we do that, we start to understand the principles. We actually see that. [00:34:54] There is also a way for us to start living our lives as future ancestors by those principles so that we don't damage sort of like carry the damage further, right. [00:35:05] That it's like so critical to understand. [00:35:08] And there's like a reckoning that actually requires a certain amount of weighted. [00:35:16] Beingness and witnessing like there's reckoning. And I don't think we're good at reckoning in our culture. I think we're really good at spiritual bypass. I think we're really good at seeing glamor and not beauty. And there's so much beauty in the knowing field. And when we look at our family systems and we can start to see why. [00:35:37] Why? Out of love. [00:35:39] We have called attention to so many things that have been ignored, that so many things that just need to be seen. They just need to be seen and acknowledged so that everything can belong because in family constellation work, the guiding principle is that everything has the right to belong in a system. [00:35:59] It's just so beautiful and so true. Yeah. On their site. And to call back this thing that Ryan exiled in the living and the dead inside of us and the family systems. It changes everything. It changes everything. What is. [00:36:16] And we do it out of love. We do it all out of love. It can either be blind love or enlightened love. Blind love means we're doing things unconsciously. Yeah. When you do this work, you can transition those elements of blind love in your system, in your life into enlightened love. And when you do that, you understand. Then you really belong. And so does everyone else and everything else. And you actually become a force of love in your own system. [00:36:47] Love will call everything to itself. Everything like it's so. Absolutely everything. Everything. It's the great attractor. Yeah. So if we hear the word love and have any any kind of a misconception that it has anything to do with a hallmark expression, we couldn't be more wrong. Exactly. Everything. Everything. [00:37:07] The deepest shadows, the Greivis Pains and those that we are most have been most pained by, offended by that at all, ultimately is looking for being witnessed, seen and a and that there is possibility of a resolution. To me, that's the miracle of constellation work. And I feel like we could spend it entire, you know, podcast on sharing miraculous stories about what happens when we do this work. [00:37:40] And maybe we should just share your stories, have a story swap that based on. [00:37:45] I'd be fun because on miracles and on speaking with the dead and what happens, I'd love to share some stories about retrieving some of my ancestors. And you have amazing stories, but that it is so radical to truly show up and love. And one thing I wanted to share, as in this time when we've had these conversations about, you know, racial justice and all these things that are showing up, there's this incredible book called My Grandmother's Hands, and it's about. It's our ancestral retrieval. Each of us that will change systemic racism. And when white people haven't done theirs, it's it's encouraging us all to do them white, black, whatever race or whatever. That from that point, we resolve things in a so mattick expression in our bodies from calling back all these fragmented places. So, I mean, it's so huge, the possibility to me and to me, it's coming more to the forefront in terms of yes. And is in individuals and family systems, but also in terms of these big picture collective issues that work that are all arising now. And I said so one of the things I love about you and your work and the intention of who you are, because to me, you know, you embody the medicine of this time in this work. [00:39:18] Thank you so much. That's really touched my heart when you just said that. Thank you. It's an honor. It's really an honor. And I've had I've had amazing teachers and I have amazing ancestors. And I have stuff in my ancestral past also that, you know, that isn't easy. And yet I was made for this because I came from them. Yeah. So in this unique expression as Camille, it isn't just because of me. It is. I mean, sometimes I have this feeling of I do this this this technique called lineage weaving. [00:39:56] And I remember going back on my father's line and it was number five in Ireland. And I remember when I got to him, it was like four was really solid. [00:40:06] In Ireland, you know, I had my back. It it held the male line very well. But five almost pushed me out of my chair. [00:40:16] There was so much support, so much enthusiasm, so much for removing Edward G. And so, yeah, it's we are a collection of the past. [00:40:27] And that's and that's our restoring. Right. Especially in Western culture where we've become so narcissistic, even in our wounds. This is all my problem. I'm just a terrible trauma Tisza alcoholic. I'm a terrible victim. We're not just this one organism. We're now dead to everything. And that there are actually ways to retrieve in a somatic way, on a soul level, on an emotional level, on an embodied level, these different layers. It's like excavation. Right. And then the retrieval. [00:41:02] And I think, you know, it really lends itself to what we need in these times, which is more conscious, aging and conscious dying. And I had I did a a session with someone recently, and I remember saying because there was this sense that our ancestors were like out here right up in the ether's or kind of above. And they said, what would it be like to imagine your ancestors below ground as the roots of a tree pulling up the nourishment through the soil? Right. Because, I mean, the bones of our ancestors are buried underground. [00:41:35] Well, not all that dirt underneath our feet. It's the desert. We're walking on the dark while they're supporting us. [00:41:43] Right. And what is it like that root system then can pull the nutrients up into the trunk and each one of us is a trunk, you know, and in this in this person's situation, you know, it was like, imagine, you know, what if your two children were the two parent big branches of your tree. And then everything in your trunk coming up through the roots was going out to them and then their children are the leaves catching the light right there, the photosynthesis, and doesn't begin to hold them back down, even to you in the ancestors. So there's a two way feedback loop that is real. I've been experiencing this, you know, for many, many years. [00:42:22] What a what a sweet way to spend the morning with you. Thank you. [00:42:27] Thank you for coming on and sharing it. I really mean it. We need to do some story swaps in our next session. Great sessions sharing because I'm like, we need to share miraculous stories because we're so, not so special. [00:42:42] No, we're not. We're two women being willing to be human. But the specialness comes from the commitment. Not that it's inaccessible to everyone. [00:42:54] It is. Well, it's our birthright and it is. [00:42:56] So thank you for sharing about some of your amazing work today. Thank you for asking the questions. [00:43:01] And with me, big to be continued and to all our listeners. Thanks for being here, as always with us, with your presence. [00:43:13] Thank you for joining Camille and Tanya for this episode of Restoring the Culture.

Chatting With Sherri welcomes back multi-talented photographer; Ian L. Sitren! Ian L Sitren is a multi-talented photographer. He creates amazing pictures of athletes, models, actors and aircraft! "As a little boy I used to build military aircraft models and hang them from the ceiling in my room. Now I get to photograph them and fly in historic and military airplanes from World War II and many others.” "My project about the Yiddish Theatre has it’s beginning with my own family. Uncle Izzy as he was known in our family, was one of the pioneers of the Yiddish Theatre along 2nd Avenue in New York City along with the famous Maurice Schwartz. The impact of the Yiddish Theatre through the Century and today reaches from Edward G. Robinson, Irving Berlin, and even Marlon Brando and so very much more. Indeed without the Yiddish Theatre even “Apocalypse Now” may never have been the motion picture it became." "Photo excursions started out a few years ago with me just looking for interesting shoot locations. Then a couple of my friends wanted to come along so they became road trips for the purpose of finding the odd and unusual. One of the guys in our group does paintings from his photographs and is now in galleries here in Southern California and Montana and has been in number of prestigious art shows. Another of our group has also been successful in art shows with his photographs, here and abroad. Art Patron Magazine last year did a story about our photo excursions."

Book Vs Movie Double Indemnity The Novella by James M. Cain & Film Noir Classic from Billy Wilder We are heading back to the Film Noir well with writer James M. Cain and the classic novella & later movie Double Indemnity. The Margos talk about the life of Mr. Cain (who also wrote Mildred Pierce) and find out the true story behind his fictional account of two lovers trying to get away with the perfect murder. The novella originally was published in 1936 in serial form with Liberty magazine in 1936 and is based on the real-life crime duo Ruth Snyder and Judd Gray. Snyder wanted her husband dead and asked her lover, Gray, to help her and then split the insurance money. After several attempts, they finally succeeded in killing Albert Snyder. Alas, they were caught right away and both went to the electric chair. The movie, directed by one of the most revered filmmakers of the 20th Century--Billy Wilder, was released in 1944 and is considered a classic. (You will usually find on the TMC Network!) There are quite a few changes between the novella and film and the author preferred their storyline to his own! Between the novella and film--which did the Margos like better? In this ep the Margos discuss: The background of James M. Cain The true story behind Ruth Synder and Judd Gray Behind-the-scenes gossip from the film making The much-hated wig worn by Barbara Stanwyck The cast which includes: Fred MacMurray (Walter Neff,) Barbara Stanwyk (Phyllis Dietrichson,) Edward G.

As 1863 began, the Union Army of the Potomac found itself in a general malaise. Its failed attempt at another push towards Richmond, known as the “Mud March,” had served as the nail in the coffin of army commander Ambrose E Burnside. When Joseph Hooker took his place as commander of the Army of the Potomac, the changes he implemented helped boost the morale and confidence of his troops. But Hooker squandered that goodwill by bungling the Chancellorsville Campaign, in the early days of May 1863. While many believed that drunkenness or the artillery round that knocked him out for a short time were the probable causes of such bungling, Hooker himself told Major General Abner Doubleday, while on the road to Gettysburg, “I was not hurt by a shell and I was not drunk. For once I lost confidence in Hooker, and that is all there was to it.” After Chancellorsville, while Hooker was looking for ways to redeem himself, Robert E. Lee was setting the wheels in motion for his second invasion of the north. Meanwhile, every day citizens in a bustling country town called Gettysburg, were going about their daily business while reading about the war in any or all of the town’s three newspapers. War had not left them untouched, however. They had sent their ablest young men off to fight for the Union cause and constant threats of invasion had plagued them since they first sent their local militia, the “Gettysburg Independent Blues”, to fight to preserve the Union, in 1861. By the Fourth of July of 1863, this small town of 2400 would be left with the daunting tasking of cleaning up the carnage and healing many times their number in wounded who wore both blue and gray. By mid-June, two great armies, totaling somewhere around 150,000 men, with tens of thousands of horses and mules, miles of wagons and, in one of those armies, human beings that were owned by other human beings, marched north into Pennsylvania. On the last day of June, a Tuesday, the lead elements of these two armies would be poised for the commencement of the greatest, bloodiest battle ever fought in the Western Hemisphere, but very few had any notion of that as they closed their eyes to sleep that night.

I talked to the wonderful Dayna DeCarlo and Lisa Sanita on their project to get Bill Angelos manuscript made into a book. Bill had access to The Cagney's in their upstate New York home for six weeks. He was going to write a movie on James Cagney life. He got amazing interviews from Jimmy and Jimmys seldom heard wife Bill. They did it. They edited, broke it into chapters and its an amazing documentation of Jimmys early life. The book is Conversations with Cagney: The Early Years By Bill Angelos. I think you'll be surprised to hear who Jimmy wanted to star as himself. He talks his early days in vaudeville. Ending up in California. He talks George Raft, Bogie, Edward G Robinson and a bit of gossip about Edward G's wife Gladys. Find out why Bill D became person non grata at James home. It's a fun read. Whats extra great is that they actually met Jimmy. He was as sweet and down to earth as you imagined him to be. I'm proud to be a Cagnerd. Special props to Stone Wallace for his contribution to the book. I love Stone. His book on George Raft is a goodie.Much thanks to Lisa and Dayna for coming on the show. You can hear their love and admiration for him shining through. I'd love to have them on again. I had a great time talking to them. Mostly Thanks to the listeners. You all are great.GracexoxoIf you'd like to become a Cagnerd just look for The James Cagney page on Facebook.

I was looking at the cute brass plant labels on the Target website the other day - I was trying to find the link to that adorable garden tote I was telling you about and I thought about the evolution of a gardener when it comes to using plant tags. First you start out needing the labels - is that dill? What does basil look like again? Then you label only the newcomers or the look alike parsley or cilantro - who can tell without smell? Sometimes a new gardener will visit. Or you’ll have people tour your garden. Folks appreciate knowing what they are looking at. Pretty soon, you realize you’re labeling as a kindness to your garden guests. If you’re like me, no matter how long you’ve been gardening, cute or clever plant labels are always a lovely find. Brevities #OTD Today is National Licorice Day. The botanical name for licorice means “sweet root” and in Dutch name, it's zoethout, (“Zoot-Howt”) which means “sweet wood.” The secret to the flavor (which is 50 times sweeter than sugar) is hidden in the very long roots and rhizomes of the plant. Thus, children who grew up chewing on licorice root would suck out the sweet sugars and spit out the pulp. The licorice plant is actually a perennial shrub in the legume or pea family. Don’t confuse it with the annual trailing dusky licorice plant that gets popped in containers. The glycyrrhetinic acid in licorice causes the body to hold salt and water. Throughout history, armies would give licorice to soldiers and horses when water was in short supply. Licorice is used as a remedy for coughing - Hippocrates used it that way. It regulates digestion - Napoleon used it for tummy troubles. #OTD It’s the birthday of Zina Pitcher (April 12, 1797, in Sandy Hill, New York – April 5, 1872, in Detroit). He managed to pack a lot of living and incredible relationships into his 75 year life. He established the Detroit public school system. He taught at West Point. He was Michigan’s most prominent doctor and became a president of the American Medical Association He was mayor of Detroit; twice. He was a tireless member of the Board of Regents of the University of Michigan and was praised as the longest serving and hardest working of the 12 original regents. As regent, it was Pitcher’s vision that made him an early advocate of acquiring John J. Audobon’s“The Birds of America”for the U-M Library. An amateur botanist, Pitcher had discovered plant species, including a thistle - now called Pitcher’s Thistle (Carduus Pitcheri or Cirsium Pitcheri) in his honor. The white-to-pale-pink flowering thistle is familiar to beachcombers throughout the Great Lakes. While he was a regent, his love of horticulture came in handy when it was time to hire professors. The name Asa Gray floated to the top of their list. Gray was mentored by the nation’s top botanist: John Torrey. When Gray arrived in Michigan, his first stop was at Pitcher’s home in Detroit. Accepting the job, Gray needed to push back his start date by one year to finish his studies in Europe. This would give the University time to get building facilities on campus. In the meantime, the regents asked Gray to buy books for the school while he was abroad. How fun! Gray shopped his bachelor buttons off; shipping over 3,700 books back to Ann Arbor. Sadly, when his year in Europe was over, Gray never made it to Michigan. Harvard stole him away. But his ties to the University and all those books he bought helped create the school library and a fine reputation to attract young scholars. Today, the street, Zina Pitcher Place in Ann Arbor is named in his honor OTD, 1810, Thomas Nuttal, just 24 years old, left Philadelphia by coach.He had recently immigrated from England, and Professor Benjamin Smith Barton of the University of Philadelphia wanted him to spend the next two years studying the flora of the Northwest. Given a salary of $8 per month plus expenses, Nuttal set about collecting and writing detailed accounts of the flora he discovered. By July 29, he jumped in a birch bark canoe with Aaron Greely, the deputy surveyor of the territory of Michigan, and they paddled to Mackinac Island arriving two weeks later on August 12. Nuttal spent several days on Mackinac - He was the first true botanist to explore at the flora of Michigan, and certainly of Mackinac Island. He documented about sixty species - about twenty were previously unknown. One the new Mackinac discoveries was the dwarf lake iris(Iris lucustris), which became the state wildflower of Michigan. Unearthed Words #OTD On this day in 1748 William Kent (Books By This Author)died. A pioneer of the English landscape garden, it was William Kent who said, Nature abhors a straight line. All gardening is landscape painting. Garden as though you will live forever. A garden is to be a world unto itself, it had better make room for the darker shades of feeling as well as the sunny ones. William Kent wrote a cute little ditty about the origin of the Inigo Jones gateway and how it came to be moved to Chiswick. The story goes that in 1621, the arch was created for Beaufort House. When his friend Hans Sloane was demolishing the house, Lord Burlingtonspied the arch and wanted it for himself. Ho! Gate, how came ye here? I came fro’ Chelsea the last yere Inigo Jones there put me together Then was I dropping by wind and weather Sir Hannes Sloane Let me alone But Burlington brought me hither This architecton-ical Gate Inigo Jon-ical Was late Hans Slon-ical And now Burlington-ical Today's book recommendation If you are interested in other early naturalists of Michigan, there is a terrific book by Dr. Edward G. Voss entitled “Botanical Beachcombers and Explorers: Pioneers of the 19th Century in the Upper Great Lakes,” published in 1978 by University of Michigan Herbarium. Today's Garden Chore You can grow plants with hints of licorice scent in your garden by growing: Anise(it tastes just like licorice) and Little Adder Anise or Hysso is a charming plant with beautiful flowers. In fact, when there’s no licorice available, anise oil can be used as a substitute. Purple Ruffles basil is fun to grow, offers rich color contrast, and adds a hint of licorice to the sweet basil flavor. Another herb, fennel, has a mild licorice flavor. You can think slice fennel and add it to salads. The stems can be made into a pesto. Something new to try this season. Finally, chervil offers that licorice or aniseed flavor and is perfect for damp, cool spots in the garden. It is best in spring and fall. Something Sweet Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart In the early 1840s, a boy with a badly broken arm had been brought to Detroit from northern Michigan. Untreated, his condition had grown so grave that the doctor he saw prepared to amputate. At the last minute, when the boy was strapped down for surgery, Dr. Zina Pitcher was consulted. After a careful examination, he asked if he might try to save the arm. Pitcher’s intervention succeeded. The boy, Peter White, grew up to be a regent of U-M himself, and long afterward, he saw to it that Zina Pitcher’s grave in Detroit was planted with blossoming flowers every spring. Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."
The society we live in today is the safest and most prosperous society that has ever existed on the planet. The likelihood of dying due to illness, murder, or starvation have dramatically plummeted in the last 100 years. More people are being lifted out of abject poverty now than ever before, while the everyday technologies we hold in our hands grant us the full extent of human knowledge and entertainment with just the tap of a finger. Yet, there’s a problem. Anxiety, depression, PTSD, adolescent suicide, and many other mental health ailments have skyrocketed in the last decade. In this age of prosperity, humans are feeling more disconnected from themselves and their communities, more detached from the natural world, and are having incredible difficulty finding a sense of meaning in their lives. This week on the Evolve Move Play Podcast we are very excited to have with us John Vervaeke, a cognitive psychologist/scientist at the University of Toronto who has made it his mission to understand and remedy the meaning crisis; and it just so happens that the way we look at our movement practice may play a key role in developing our ability to transcend the bullshit and find the meaning we are striving for in life. So grab a pad and pen, sit back, and get ready to take a trip into the realm of our cognitive psychology to see how the very mechanisms that make us susceptible to bullshit also provide us the ability to transcend ourselves, tap into flow states, and maybe even find enlightenment while we're at it.

I’m Theo Mayer - the Chief Technologist for the Commission and your host. Welcome to the show. [MUSIC] Preface You know---- Our way-back machine not only travels in time, but also in space so as we roll back 100 years, but are also going up to 10 thousand feet to get a high level view of what happened in 1917 and a glance into the future for what to expect for this upcoming year --- in the war the changed the world! [SOUND EFFECT] World War One THEN 100 Year Ago This Week [MUSIC TRANSITION] Looking back across 1917 from way up here, we can see: Wilson being sworn in as the President who promises to keep us out of the war, but events early in the year, pressure from the allies, aggressive and presumptuous actions by Germany, builds up by spring to a declaration of war. We see a massive rush to mobilize for war. We see our allies struggling with ever more massive and devastating loss of treasure and men - standing on the brink of devastation - and we see the eastern allie - Russia - go through two revolutions in one year - the first - which collapses the Tsarist government - the second - late in the year -- when Lenin and the bolsheviks take over and effectively drop Russia out of the war, This is to Germany’s great delight, anticipating the freeing up of massive resources -- with which Germany can deal the allies - a knock-out punch - in an upcoming spring. Let’s zoom down for a bit closer look at 1917 In late January, early February Germany resumes unrestricted submarine warfare - reneging on promises made to Wilson after the 1915 sinking of the Lusitania. The US severs diplomatic ties with Germany. In an attempt to draw the US into the fight, Britain passes along a secret telegram showing an offer by Germany to Mexico promising great rewards including Texas and New Mexico - if Mexico will toss in with Germany - and help take down the US. This does not sit well. By March with Germany attacking shipping everywhere - the Wilson asks congress to put Navy armaments and sailors aboard US merchant ships. Congress doesn’t go for it - so he issues an executive order to the same effect. While over in Russia - Revolution #1 - and Tsar Nicholas II abdicates.. By the end of march, Germany’s blatant aggression against the US gets Wilson’s cabinet to vote unanimously in favor of declaring war. April is big… On the 2nd Wilson delivers a war address to congress, and four days later - on April 6th -- congress votes to go to war. Over in Europe - French Commander in Chief General Robert Nivelle cranks up a strategic plan that is so flawed and costly in french soldiers lives --- it sets up a French army mutiny ---- NIvelle gets the boot - and the French forces come back online. In May America cranks up the war machine in a big way! Wilson appoints George Creel to head the Committee on Public Information.. Creating a historic government propaganda machine. Congress also passes the selective service act and all men between 18 and 32 have to register. Meanwhile - John J. Pershing is appointed to head of the American Expeditionary Force and goes over to France to assess the situation. June - To deal with strong war opposition at home - congress passes the US Espionage Act - A massive attacks on “freedom of speech” that makes {QUOTE) all false statements intended to interfere with the military forces of the country or to promote the success of its enemies (UNQUOTE) illegal. In other words - if you speak up against the draft or the war - you are going to prison. And people do. Same month, the first US troop arrive in France - but not yet to fight - they are there to prepare the way for our army. In July Pershing makes a request for an army of a million men - then just a few weeks later --- revises his request upwards to 3 million. On the fighting front, July, August and september see the first use of Mustard Gas on the battlefield --- and campaigns in the Belgic regions of Ypres and Passchendaele. America is busy building and equipping the largest fighting force of its young history. Money is raised, Industries are nationalized, units are mobilized, the population is galvanized by Mr. Creel and his minions. October marks a disastrous war effort for the italians at the battle of Caporetto --- and in November - Revolution #2 - the bolsheviks take over under Lenin and end the battle on the Eastern Front. November also sees the expanded use of a new war machine in the battlefield - the Tank! And at the end of the year - the Brits bring home a little holiday surprise as they finally turn around their struggle with the ottoman empire and defeat the Turks, taking Jerusalem in December. Wow - Ok… now we’re gonna zoom back up and look forward at 1918 from overview. Germany’s kaiserslacht, is their big offensive - hoping to deal the allies a death blow… it includes five major offensives over the spring and early summer; The allies lose ground - then gain it back with help of Americans who are coming online Things turn around --- and over the fall, the central powers admit defeat -- one by one so that in November, an armistice is declared… The fighting stops and now some of WWI’s most fascinating stories emerge - as the aftermath of the war, the negotiations, and America’s war cranked economy try to settle on and into a new world order. Wilson’s fourteen points It all actually starts this week. On January 8, 1918 President Woodrow Wilson addresses the U.S. Congress with what would later become known as his "Fourteen Points" the fundamental to America's War Aims. Inconceivably … up until now, there has been no explicit statement of war aims by any of the nation’s who engaged in this mad destruction. At his request, a team, led by Walter Lippmann --- and longtime Wilson advisor Colonel House generate a memorandum called “The War Aims and the Peace Terms it Suggests.” from which Wilson crafts one of his most important and influential speeches of his administration - the Fourteen Points. The first six enumerate the causes of world war, and urge: The elimination of secret treaties in favor of open agreements Free navigation of the seas Removal of all economic barriers and established equal trade between nations The reduction of armaments The adjustment of colonial claims and the self-determination of colonized populations in regard to their own sovereignty The evacuation of all Russian territory by the German armies The next seven proceed to rearrange the map of Europe, effectively eradicating the old imperial borders of specific territories and creating independent states. This included: the evacuation of Belgium, the release of French territory, (particularly Alsace-Lorraine), the readjustment of the frontiers of Italy into “clearly recognizable lines of nationality,” the autonomy of Austria-Hungary, the release of occupied territories in the Balkan states, the establishment of political and economic independence along “historically established lines of allegiance,” as well as access to the sea - for the Serbs Assured sovereignty of Turkey from the Ottoman empire, as well as the right of other nationalities to develop autonomy The establishment of an independent Polish state, with access to the sea And, finally, his fourteenth point -- the creation of a world organization that would provide a system of collective security for all nations - the foundations of the League of Nations. An auspicious beginning for 1918, establishing a world changing doctrine in what TRULY IS the war that changed the world! [poignant audio hit] All year, we will be bringing you with us,. on an incredible journey through these amazing times for our national and our global heritage.

A century in the making For 2018 we are introducing a new segment - It’s called: A century in the making - America’s WW1 Memorial in Washington DC. As our regular listeners know, we are building a national WWI Memorial at Pershing Park in the capitol. It’s a big project. It’s complicated. It’s hard. It’s been a long time coming. So over the coming weeks, we are going to be bringing you along on an insider’s journey that explores this grand undertaking and adventure. The centerpiece of the memorial - located in this urban park - just two blocks from the White House - is planned as a massive bronze bas-relief sculpture that tells the story of both the human and the national experience of the war that changed the world. Joe Weishaar - our brilliant young visionary, who won the international design competition for this memorial -- brought in an incredibly talented artist and sculptor onto his team - Sabin Howard… a traditionally trained - modern classicist sculptor - Sabin has taken on the challenge of telling the American WWI story at scale, in bronze, and for posterity. Sabin Howard - Meeting Richard Taylor So we are going to kick off this series with an interesting story about how Sabin - the traditionalist - has gotten hooked up with Richard Taylor - a tech visionary who has helped Directors Peter Jackson and James Cameron manifest their visions for Lord of the Rings and Avatar…. Welcome, Sabin! Sabin, You are a traditionally trained sculptor - a Modern Classicist - you work with the human form - in a very traditional way - but for this project you are combining classic sculpture with some very high tech. How did that happen, and how are you using cutting edge technology in creating this master work for America? [SABIN INTERVIEW PART I] That was the first installment of “A century in the making - America’s WW1 Memorial in Washington DC” Next week, Sabin will tell us how he is integrating his traditional sketch and clay sculpture process with 3D imaging, programmable milling and additive manufacturing technologies to literally cut years into months for the test / iterate / and retest process in creating a maquette - a 9 foot manifestation of the sculpture. Only YOU can build this memorial “A century in the making” has another part to it that is unique for our weekly podcast. You are more involved in this project than you may realize. Congress - who authorized this memorial - made it the LAW that the National WWI memorial has to be built with individual and corporate funding - no government funding allowed! Only you can build this memorial -- So I’m going to be asking you to go to WW1CC.org/memorial --- to help honor the memory of those who shaped the world we enjoy today -- with their honest and genuine commitment to our American ideals --- and their personal sacrifice of effort and blood - Now Wer’e not asking you to jump into a bunker with mud and lice ---- all we are asking you to do is to go to wwicc.org/memorial or just pick up your cell phone - heck- it’s probably in you hand right now! Go to your texting app and text the letters ww1 to the number 91999. You can give any amount - Give once or “subscribe to the project” with a monthly gift === because you see - this really IS America’s WWI Memorial.

This is the grand evolution of the Armored car, and every side in the conflict tried to create an effective machine. but the British beat everyone to the punch with their Landship, premiering the Mark I in September, 1916. Until then - this was a new secret weapon! The machines were called "tanks" in a ruse describing the big metal things as "water carriers," supposedly for use on the Mesopotamian Front. So in conversation -- the engineers referred to them as "water tanks" or, simply, "tanks." Interestingly, the British Landships Committee even decided to change its name for the same secretive reason, renaming itself the Tank Supply Committee. By the time the machines rolled over the fields of Cambrai in the winter of 1917, not only did the tanks get stuck - but so did the name… no one went for the name land ships - they were simply known then and are still today --- as Tanks -- this week’s word for Speaking WW1. See the podcast notes to learn more! link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_tank Education Interview with Dr. Libby O’Connell In our Education section -- As we tell every week in our closing - bringing the lessons of WWI into the classroom is one of the Commission’s prime goals - and here to tell us more about the Commission’s education program is Commissioner Dr. Libby O’Connell.

He is here to tell us more about the history of chaplains in the armed forces and their special role during World War One. Welcome, Dr. Boyd! Dr. Boyd, just to start us off -- What IS a chaplain and what is their role in the military? In WW1- we suddenly had an army - and it was made up of a very diverse group of soldiers - Was any attention given to the increasing diversity of the troops? There are many stories about the chaplains of World War 1-- does any one in particular stand out to you? Do you have a favorite? Thank you so much for joining us.

In articles and posts-- from our rapidly growing website at ww1cc.org -this week, this week there is an article about the American Medical Women’s Association (AMWA) - Now they have created a remarkable new online exhibit, "American Women Physicians in World War I". When the United States entered the war in 1917, women physicians numbered less than 5% of all doctors. Many were eager for the chance to serve their country. But when the Army Surgeon General sent out a call for physicians to serve in the Medical Corps, the women who applied were rejected. Women physician leaders across the country protested this decision and petitioned the government, but the War Department didn’t budge. Despite the stance of the Government, women physicians found ways to participate. Some became civilian contract surgeons in the U.S. Army or served with the French Army. Others volunteered with humanitarian relief organizations. Learn about this amazing story and women physician’s contributions and legacy in WWI by reading the article or by visiting the online exhibit using the links in the podcast notes.

The exhibition has been touring the country for the last year and is on view at the Frist through January 21st. The exhibit includes 140 works in all kinds of media, including the monumentally large John Singer Sargeant piece -- Gassed.

[Katherine Akey] Hi Theo! Follow up to the Halifax Explosion Happy New Year, everyone! We’re glad to be back. Before we broke for the holidays in December, we talked a fair amount about the disastrous Halifax explosion of 1917. Recently, we shared an article on our Facebook page with some interesting contemporary news about that very incident. The article outlines the discovery by a Canadian arborist of some odd material lodged in a large pine tree near Halifax -- debris from the explosion 100 years ago. Shards of unidentified flying objects got lodged into the city’s canopy when the explosion occurred and to this day, lumber mills as far as the southern United States still don’t dare touch logs from Halifax, knowing some hidden metal artifact could wreck their machinery. Read more about the history hidden in the trees around Halifax by visiting the article at the link in the podcast notes. link:http://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/a-century-after-the-halifax-explosion-grim-reminders-can-still-be-found-in-trees/ The Poilu Censorship Workaround Lastly this week, I wanted to share a really amazing article from the Centenaire website, the official national centennial organization in France. The story comes from the Municipal Archives of Marseille, where one archivist discovered a sneaky and smart strategy to get around the heavy censoring of wartime letters. Jean Bouyala, who went on after the war to become a prominent surgeon, was one of several Poilus who found a way to write secret messages on their letters. It sounds bizarre, but by writing first using their saliva, then having the letter’s recipient brush black ink over the page, the saliva stanzas become legible, a darker black writing in the midst of the ink wash on the page. This way, the Poilu were able to send home messages that would otherwise have been blocked by the censor. A link to the article is in the podcast notes along with photographs of the magic-ink letters. Saliva-- the key to clandestine correspondence! And that’s it this week for the Buzz!

When Paine arrived in Philadelphia from England in 1774, the city was thriving as America’s largest port. But the seasonal dangers of the rivers dividing the region were becoming an obstacle to the city’s continued growth. Philadelphia needed a practical connection between the rich grain of Pennsylvania’s backcountry farms and its port on the Delaware. The iron bridge was Paine’s solution. The bridge was part of Paine’s answer to the central political challenge of the new nation: how to sustain a republic as large and as geographically fragmented as the United States. The iron construction was Paine’s brilliant response to the age-old challenge of bridge technology: how to build a structure strong enough to withstand the constant battering of water, ice, and wind. The convergence of political and technological design in Paine’s plan was Enlightenment genius. And Paine drew other giants of the period as patrons: Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and for a time his great ideological opponent, Edmund Burke. Paine’s dream ultimately was a casualty of the vicious political crosscurrents of revolution and the American penchant for bridges of cheap, plentiful wood. But his innovative iron design became the model for bridge construction in Britain as it led the world into the industrial revolution. Edward G. Gray is a professor of history at Florida State University and the author of several important works in early American history.

Philadelphia: A Railroad History describes the remarkable development of the railroad industry in Philadelphia and the intense competition that pitted the Pennsylvania Railroad against the Reading Railroad, and those two titans against the formidable Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to dominate the regional market. The book details the impact of the rail industry on four local firms—Baldwin Locomotive, the Cramp Shipyard, Midvale Steel and the Budd Company—and on the Philadelphia waterfront and its port. And it concludes with speculation on the impact, challenges and opportunities presented by Conrail’s acquisition by CSX and Norfolk Southern. Philadelphia: A Railroad History also highlights the key roles of the city’s industrial giants during this colorful era, including Steven Girard, Matthias Baldwin, William Sellers, Franklin Gowen, John W. Garrett, George Roberts and Edward G. Budd. Edward Duffy is a graduate of La Salle and Temple Universities. He has worked for Philadelphia’s Department of Commerce, its Planning Commission, its Port Corporation, and the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation. Edward Duffy’s interest in railroads dates from his role as liaison between the City of Philadelphia and various rail reorganization agencies in the early 1970s that resulted in the creation of Conrail in 1976.

In this episode of Flower Seize the Hour, a podcast occasionally and tenuously devoted to discussing the Smashing Pumpkins, hosts Tim, Stubbs, Greg, and Matt address the Smashing Pumpkins' first record, Gish. This is episode one, and is called episode one despite being actually recorded after episodes three, four, five, and six. To explain, the original episode one contained some technical, but mostly substantive, flaws, and this, therefore, is a replacement. And if the listener still finds this replacement episode one unsatisfying, then the listener can only imagine how bad the original sounded. In any event, in this episode one the hosts are joined by Noah, an international rock n’ roll expert, and later on by guest Edward G. Bauer, a local jazz aficionado. If the listener sticks around long enough, he or she will be treated to the sweet sounds of scat and be-bop juxtaposed to the sounds of early 90’s alternative rock. Oh, and some Scientology hot stove.
