Podcasts about ellora

In today's episode, I'm joined by Ms. Ellie Penner, an art historian whose work has taken her across the globe—from studying Himalayan art forms in Nepal and Ladakh to exploring ancient sculptures at Ajanta and Ellora, and observing masterpieces in the museums of the U.S. But beyond her deep love for centuries-old art, Ellie is an adventurer at heart. Raised in Colorado, she's an outdoors enthusiast who jumps at any chance to head into the mountains.And that's exactly what she did—on a 32-day, 483-milethru-hike on the breathtaking Colorado Trail, accompanied by two of her best friends. What followed was a trail full of stories: hitchhiking into nearby towns, camping under the stars, weathering hailstorms, naming each other with quirky trail nicknames, dodging wildlife, and pushing through sore,blistered feet—all while laughing nonstop.This episode is full of warmth, adventure, and some seriously hilarious moments. I don't consider myself a hiker, but after talking to Ellie, I found myself itching to plan a trip like this with my best friends. Come along for the ride—you'll laugh as much as I did.Tune in and get inspired—whether you're an art lover, anaspiring hiker, or just here for the wild stories.---------------------------------------------Follow Ellie on Instagram ---------------------------------------------To buy yourself a copy of the travel journal, click here: Travel Journal (currently shipping within India only)---------------------------------------------To support our team and donate generously, please click ⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT ⁠⁠⁠⁠.Like our work?

Returning champion Ellora Coupe joins us to talk about the recent report that Her Own Space has published about the place of women in the retrofit sector, which is heartening, insightful, and damning in equal measure. A great piece of work that everyone interested in the sector should heed.Perhaps more importantly, she's with us to promote the incoming launch of its professional sister network Her Retrofit Space, a network for professional women working in the retrofit sector. It's a network that she's created to fill an obvious cultural deficit and in her words "empower professional women to drive retrofit". It sounds brilliant.Finally, a deserving heads-up for Graphenstone as the first signed-up partner for Her Retrofit Space.

In this episode, Ellora La Shier, graduate of the EBB Childbirth Class, shares about her struggle with six years of unexplained infertility and how it impacted her eventual birth story. Listen in as Ellora describes the frustration of unexplained infertility, suffering through years of increasingly painful periods, and the relief of finally receiving a diagnosis of endometriosis. Despite facing numerous challenges and undergoing various treatments, including intrauterine insemination (IUI), Ellora remained determined and resilient.   Finally, after years, Ellora underwent surgery to remove the abnormal tissue caused by endometriosis. Following surgery, she and her husband were overjoyed to discover that they quickly became pregnant. Although this pregnancy marked the end of a long and challenging infertility journey, Ellora still had to process the many years of healthcare dismissal and her complicated relationship with pain, and how this would impact her eventual unmedicated birth. Ellora's story highlights the importance of perseverance, self-advocacy, and finding supportive healthcare providers in navigating the complexities of infertility and reproductive health.   Resources Find evidence-based information about infertility here.   EBB Resources: Watch the video of this podcast episode on the EBB YouTube channel here!  Join the EBB Pro Membership and get access to contact hours, a doula mentorship, live trainings, and a PDF Library with exclusive handouts (including a 2-page handout on breech) by joining here.

ABERTURA SEGUNDA-FEIRA, 22 DE JANEIRO DE 2024. EU SOU LEO LOPES  E ESTÁ NO AR A EDIÇÃO NÚMERO 49 DO CASTNEWS COM AS PRINCIPAIS NOTÍCIAS SOBRE O MERCADO DE PODCASTS NO BRASIL E NO MUNDO. NOTÍCIAS 1 – E hoje a gente começa falando dos resultados da última pesquisa Uso de Apps no Brasil, realizada em novembro e dezembro de 2023 pela Panorama. A Panorama é uma parceria entre o site de notícias Mobile Time e a empresa de pesquisas on-line Opinion Box, que é 100% focada em pesquisas sobre o comportamento do consumidor brasileiro. De acordo com o relatório, 66% dos brasileiros com smartphones assinam algum serviço de streaming de áudio ou vídeo. Esse número teve um grande boom de crescimento de 2019 pra cá, principalmente considerando que antes da pandemia da Covid-19, eram só 45%. Os serviços de música passaram de 26% em 2019 para 43% em 2023, com o Spotify liderando, sendo utilizado por 62% dos assinantes. Além disso, 44% dos escutados pela pesquisa ouvem podcasts nos seus smartphones, sendo que 36% deles faz isso através do Spotify. Outros dados revelados pelo estudo, foram sobre as preferências dos usuários em aplicativos. 98% dos brasileiros com smartphones já instalaram algum aplicativo, sendo que 78% deles nunca pagou pelo download de nada. O modelo preferido pela maioria dos usuários é o “freemium”: aquele com download gratuito, sem publicidade, mas com recursos premium pagos. Agora, se o olhar for especificamente pras classes D e E, o modelo preferido é o gratuito com publicidade. Em qualquer um dos casos, o público não demonstrou um grande incômodo com a publicidade em áudio. 2 – Na segunda-feira passada, a Central 3 e a plataforma APOIA.se anunciaram o projeto Mais Vozes. A campanha é uma ação afirmativa, ou seja, que busca reparar as desigualdades sociais que existem dentro da podosfera. Existem outras campanhas que promovem a diversidade de vozes aqui no Brasil, como por exemplo a hashtag #OPodcastÉDelas, o AMPLIFIKADOS, enfim, mas é sempre bom que essas portas sejam abertas pra mais pessoas interessadas em compartilhar as suas visões. O Mais Vozes vai premiar pelo menos 2 projetos de pessoas que já tenham uma ideia para produzir um podcast, ou que já tenham um programa. A busca é por podcasters, jornalistas e produtores independentes que precisam de uma forcinha pra começar ou então pra evoluir o seu podcast. Entre os prêmios para os projetos selecionados estão: recurso financeiro de R$2 mil, equipamentos de gravação, vinhetas originais, entre outros. A iniciativa é voltada para mulheres cis, pessoas trans, não-brancas, PCD's ou que façam parte de uma minoria ou maioria marginalizada. Além disso, apesar do programa focar nas regiões Norte e Nordeste, criadores de conteúdo de outros locais também podem se inscrever. Mais informações, você encontra lá no portal do Castnews em castnews.com.br . AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 3 – O Spotify retomou o Radar Podcasters Brasil, o programa que destaca vozes promissoras na podosfera brasileira. O destaque desse mês, é o podcast “fiz o que pude”, da influenciadora Ellora Haonne, que vai ficar por 30 dias na capa da playlist. No programa, a Ellora compartilha desabafos sobre os desafios da vida adulta, promovendo a responsabilidade sem que a gente seja autocrítico em excesso. No Radar Podcasters, ao longo de 2024, um total de 12 produtores vão ser destacados. Além do ‘fiz o que pude', outros quatro episódios também já foram apresentados na playlist: Sou um fracasso, do podcast Um Porcento Mais da Gi Baldino; Viciada em reclamar, do podcast Gostosas também choram, da lela brandão; Ana Luiza McLaren, do Steal The Look; e Retrospectiva Animada 2023, do Canal Nostalgia do Castanhari. O objetivo do programa é reconhecer talentos, inspirar os ouvintes a descobrirem novas vozes e construir novos públicos para os criadores de conteúdo. Se a playlist ajudar alguns podcasters independentes a romper a bolha, já tá bom demais. 4 – A Descript anunciou na semana passada o “Edit for Clarity”, um novo recurso da plataforma baseado em inteligência artificial. A ferramenta permite que criadores removam facilmente palavras de preenchimento, como “hmmm”, “é…”, “ahn” (os clássicos marcadores de discurso que dão uma trabalheira na edição) e outras lenga-lengas que não contribuem pro conteúdo do podcast. Na página da edição em texto, o podcaster pode utilizar o Ask IA pra selecionar o Edit for Clarity. Aí, uma vez selecionado, a inteligência artificial vai identificar todas essas palavras, remover, e gerar uma nova versão do conteúdo. Essa nova versão vai apresentar as palavras removidas com um traço em cima, e o podcaster pode – ou não – aceitar a versão, clicando no botão “aplicar no roteiro”. Se o robô tiver recortado demais ou de menos, o produtor pode revisar o documento e refazer manualmente. O Edit for Clarity já está disponível no site da Descript. E MAIS: 5 – Segundo um estudo da YouGov, em 2023, 10% dos ouvintes de podcasts no Reino Unido passaram mais de seis horas semanais consumindo conteúdo, o que representa um aumento de 5% desde 2019. O relatório analisou os hábitos dos “Podheads” (os ouvintes declarados de podcast) e revelou que o gênero mais popular é comédia, seguido de música, esportes e educação. Milagre a gente não ver true crime no pódio, né? Mas é isso aí mesmo, lá no Reino Unido o pessoal ouve menos true crime. Música e educação, nos últimos anos, tiveram aumento de mais de 10%. Cerca de 42% dos ouvintes afirmaram que ouvem podcasts para fins educativos, enquanto 37% dos entrevistados ouvem podcasts pra se manterem informados. Outro ponto interessante da pesquisa foi sobre a relação dos ouvintes com os anúncios: quase metade dos consumidores de podcast disseram que ouvem anúncios, e a maioria deles não liga de ouvir. 17% dos entrevistados defenderam que os anúncios não parecem intrusivos e são, muitas vezes, até interessantes. O relatório da YouGov deixou claro que os podcasts continuam tendo um papel muito importante na vida dos britânicos, o que abre oportunidades tanto pros produtores de conteúdo quanto pros anunciantes. 6 – Na última semana o Castnews também traduziu a íntegra de um artigo escrito pelo Tom Webster, da Sounds Profitable, que destaca uma perspectiva importante sobre o podcasting: a ideia de “tempo ganho ouvindo podcasts” ao invés de “tempo gasto“. O artigo se baseia em dados do estudo Podcast Movement em Denver, falando que apesar de 40% dos ouvintes ouvirem mais podcasts do que há um ano atrás, quase 20% passa menos tempo consumindo os podcasts, de fato. O principal motivo disso, como citado pelo Tom, é a falta de tempo. Ele aproveita o artigo pra usar a metáfora da “pedra grande e areia fina”, pra ilustrar como tem sido o gerenciamento de tempo do público de podcasts. Os podcasts fazem parte da areia fina; que é um conteúdo que pode ser consumido durante as brechas do dia-a-dia – e é isso mesmo, quantas vezes ao longo do Castnews a gente já falou que os ouvintes escutam podcast enquanto se deslocam pro trabalho? Enquanto lavam louça? Essa flexibilidade é um dos pontos positivos do podcast. Enfim, o Tom Webster também comparou essa abordagem com o Duolingo, que transformou aprender línguas estrangeiras em pequenas tarefas práticas no dia a dia. O artigo é grande, não teria como a gente comentar todo o conteúdo dele aqui, mas vale muito a pena ler na íntegra e tirar suas próprias conclusões, mas uma coisa é certa: podcast é uma ferramenta muito poderosa, e que se usada do jeito certo, não é gasto de tempo. É investimento. 7 – E nas dicas de produção da semana, a equipe do Castnews puxou vários conteúdos importantes: Qual a duração ideal de um episódio de podcast? Quais as melhores práticas pra um podcast de entrevista? Tem como crescer na podosfera colaborando com outros criadores de conteúdo? As respostas são: depende, sim, e sim. Primeiro, porque cada podcast tem que ter a duração que tem que ter. Nem mais, nem menos. Quer saber o que isso significa? Então acessa o nosso portal em castnews.com.br e já aproveita pra ler também as dicas pra crescer o seu podcast através da colaboração, e os insights do Guy Raz pra podcasts de entrevista. Não perde não, que todos esses conteúdos são bem legais e também bastante úteis. HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA:  8 – O curta-metragem “Dragged Holidays,” produzido por um trio brasileiro, levou o prêmio no concurso internacional Holiday Contest, organizado pela Curious Refuge. A produção foi feita pelo podcaster Rafael Arinelli, criador e apresentador do podcast Cinem(ação), pelo Beto Padreca, criador e apresentador do Miolos Fritos, e a diretora de arte Paula Fernandes (não confundir com a cantora de sertanejo, porque são pessoas diferentes). O filme narra a história de uma Drag queen famosa que recebe um convite da mãe para jantar na noite de Natal, o que leva a personagem a refletir sobre sua vida e os seus maiores desafios. A proposta do concurso era criar um curta metragem de 3 minutos com o tema de Natal, usando ferramentas de IA e músicas da Epidemic Sound, enquanto a voz era livre para ser utilizada de qualquer forma que os produtores quisessem. Essa é a primeira vez que uma equipe brasileira ganha esse prêmio da Curious Refuge, e o Rafael fez questão de agradecer e falar sobre como foi importante ter recebido ajuda da comunidade de podcasts na divulgação do material. Quem quiser assistir ao curta pode conferir ele, na íntegra, no YouTube. SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 9 – A Native Instruments lançou o iZotope VEA, um assistente de aprimoramento de voz com tecnologia de inteligência artificial, projetado para podcasters e criadores de conteúdo. O VEA analisa e aprimora o áudio, dando maior clareza, níveis mais consistentes e redução de ruído de fundo nas captações de voz. O objetivo é ajudar os podcasters a se sentirem mais confiantes e entregarem um som mais aprimorado. São três controles diferentes ajustados pela tecnologia de IA da iZotope: o controle Shape, que garante um som profissional sem ajustes de equalização, o controle Boost, que aumenta o volume e compressão para melhorar a presença vocal, e o controle Clean, que elimina ruídos de fundo, mantendo a qualidade da fala. O plugin já está disponível e pode ser integrado a várias plataformas de áudio digital e editores não-lineares. 10 – E na última semana foi lançado o podcast Peraí, amiga!, comandado pelas hosts Ane Vaz e Fey Marques. O projeto foi ao ar dia 18 de janeiro, com o episódio de inauguração “A tal da Vila”. A discussão girou em torno do conceito da “Vila” na bolha materna, falando sobre a importância das amizades na vida da mulher e como essas relações se adaptam com a chegada da maternidade. Como a própria descrição do programa já diz, o Peraí, amiga! é feito por 2 amigas, 5 crianças, um cachorro, 3 empresas, algumas taças de vinho, e a sua participação. O programa é editado pela minha empresa, a Rádiofobia Podcast e Multimídia – inclusive sou eu na voz da vinheta de abertura -, então eu já posso te dar um spoilerzinho: a Ane e a Fey vão trazer muitas conversas genuínas sobre a vida, maternidade, amizade, empreendedorismo e saúde. As gravações estão a mil por hora, a gente já tem vários episódios programas prontos pra serem publicados toda quinta-feira no feed. Então não deixa de conferir o humor, o acolhimento e o conhecimento da Ane e da Fey no Peraí, amiga!, toda quinta-feira no seu agregador de podcast preferido. RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL:  11 – E na recomendação nacional dessa semana, a gente vai falar de um podcast que vai muito além do entretenimento. É um espaço terapêutico, onde o host cria uma experiência terapêutica, que guia os ouvintes através das complexidades humanas com empatia e compreensão. É o podcast Cartas de um Terapeuta, apresentado pelo Alexandre Coimbra Amaral e produzido pela Abrace Podcasts. Nos episódios, são lidas as cartas e compartilhadas as histórias de pessoas reais, o que cria um espaço seguro pra reflexão, discussão e autodescoberta. É uma produção muito bonita, muito sensível e respeitosa. Então se você tá disposto a se emocionar, aprender mais sobre si mesmo e de quebra apoiar o trabalho de um profissional muito bom que é o Alexandre, já assina o Cartas de um Terapeuta no seu agregador de podcast favorito e ouça novos episódios toda semana.

Autre Moi - Caves Of Ellora [Continuum I] Buy on Beatport - https://bit.ly/PSM005

Paris có đến hai bảo tàng lớn nhất nước Pháp dành riêng cho nghệ thuật châu Á : bảo tàng quốc gia Guimet và bảo tàng Cernuschi. Nằm ở quận 8, bảo tàng Cernuschi, trực thuộc thành phố, còn là bảo tàng lớn thứ năm dành cho nghệ thuật Trung Quốc tại châu Âu. Quá trình hình thành bảo tàng được tái hiện qua triển lãm Retour d'Asie. Henri Cernuschi, un collectionneur au temps du japonisme (Từ châu Á trở về. Henri Cernuschi, nhà sưu tập thời trào lưu Nhật Bản) từ ngày 06/10/2023 đến 04/02/2024. Từ khi mở cửa đón công chúng năm 1898, bảo tàng Cernuschi, mang tên nhà sưu tập, vị mạnh thường quân người Pháp gốc Ý, hiện có gần 15.000 đồ vật liên quan đến Trung Quốc, Việt Nam, Nhật Bản và Hàn Quốc. Henri Cernuschi (1821-1896) là ai ? Tại sao lại là “giai đoạn trào lưu Nhật Bản” ? RFI Tiếng Việt đặt câu hỏi với giám đốc bảo tàng Eric Lefebvre, tại lễ khai trương triển lãm ngày 05/10/2023.“Henri Cernuschi là người có cuộc sống muôn mặt, một cuộc đời đầy phiêu lưu và sự kiện. Ông sống ở Milan (Ý) thời trẻ và trải qua một giai đoạn vô cùng quan trọng : Năm 1848, ông tham gia phong trào cách mạng để lập nền Cộng Hòa ở Milan và tham gia nhóm lãnh đạo phong trào phản đối quân đội Áo. Sau đó, Cernuschi cũng rất năng động trong thời kỳ Cộng Hòa ngắn ngủi ở Roma. Phong trào cách mạng thất bại, ông đến Pháp bắt đầu một cuộc đời mới. Ông là nhà thầu trong rất nhiều lĩnh vực và cuối cùng giầu lên nhờ lĩnh vực tài chính. Dù vậy, ông vẫn luôn đam mê với tư tưởng chính trị, đến mức vào cuối Đế Chế 2 và khi nền Đệ Tam Cộng Hòa ra đời ở Pháp, ông nhập quốc tịch Pháp, dù sau đó, ông bị ám ảnh về những sự kiện bi thương giai đoạn Công Xã Paris. Sau Công Xã, lúc 50 tuổi, Cernuschi bắt đầu hành trình đến châu Á. Tại sao lại vượt Đại Tây Dương, băng qua Mỹ và Thái Bình Dương để đến châu Á ? Cần sống lại bối cảnh thời đó. Cả một bầu không khí mới mẻ, thịnh hành lúc đó, mà người ta gọi là “trào lưu Nhật Bản”. Ai cũng biết là giới nghệ sĩ, trí thức Pháp trong nửa sau thế kỷ 19 bị ảnh hưởng bởi xu hướng này. Qua đồ gốm sứ, các nghệ sĩ Pháp phát hiện ra tranh vẽ Nhật Bản nổi tiếng. Loại hình nghệ thuật này ảnh hưởng rất lớn đến các nghệ sĩ theo trường phái Ấn Tượng. Ở nửa sau thế kỷ 19, rất nhiều nhà trí thức và nghệ sĩ bắt đầu chu du đến châu Á. Cernuschi cũng vậy. Ông đến Nhật Bản trước tiên, sau đó đến Trung Quốc, Indonesia, Sri Lanka và Ấn Độ”.Cernuschi : Doanh nhân Pháp mang tâm hồn châu ÁỞ tuổi 50, Henri Cernuschi chu du thế giới với nhà báo Théodore Duret, cũng là một người Cộng Hòa. Chuyến đi kéo dài 16 tháng, từ tháng 07/1871 đến tháng 01/1873, đưa họ đi từ Liverpool (Anh) vượt Đại Tây Dương đến New York, đi xuyên Hoa Kỳ sang bờ Tây để từ San Francisco vượt Thái Bình Dương và đến Yokohama, Nhật Bản vào tháng 10/1871. Sau gần ba tháng ở Nhật Bản (Tokyo, Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto và Nara), họ đến Hoa lục (Bắc Kinh, Nội Mông, Hàng Châu, Thiên Tân, Nam Kinh), Hồng Kông, đảo Java (Jakarta, Bandung và Yogyakarta), Sri Lanka, đến Ấn Độ (Madurai, Calcutta, Agra, Rajastan, Ellora) và từ Mumbay về Liverpool (Anh).Hành trình của Cernuschi được thể hiện một cách sinh động, kết hợp âm thanh, hình ảnh, đồ vật trưng bày, cùng với lời bình của một hướng dẫn viên trong vòng một tiếng rưỡi để khách tham quan không bị nhàm chán. Giám đốc Eric Lefebvre cho biết tiếp :“Chúng tôi kỉ niệm một sự kiện quan trọng. Tròn 150 năm Henri Cernuschi kết thúc chuyến chu du châu Á, cho nên đây là dịp để tái hiện lại chuyến đi và để hiểu thêm về bộ sưu tập đặc biệt. Chỉ trong tầm16 tháng, ông sưu tập khoảng 5.000 đồ vật, sau đó chia sẻ với công chúng Pháp trên đại lộ Champs-Elysée vào năm sau và cuối cùng là xây tòa nhà này chỉ để dành trưng bày bộ sưu tập. Đó là điều rất đặc biệt mà chúng tôi kỉ niệm ở bảo tàng”.Nhật Bản được Henri Cernuschi chọn làm điểm khởi đầu chuyến chu du bởi quần đảo mở cửa giao thương với thế giới ngay từ năm 1854, xã hội chuyển mình mạnh mẽ nhờ những biện pháp cải cách dưới thời Minh Trị (Meiji). Henri Cernuschi còn đi trước thời đại khi ông sưu tập đồ đồng sau khi khám phá ra quy mô và trình độ đúc đồng của các nghệ nhân Nhật Bản trong khi giới nghệ sĩ châu Âu vẫn đang say sưa với sơn mài và gốm sứ.Trong bộ sưu tập của ông có bức tượng Phật Amida cao lớn, sau này trở thành một trong những vật chủ đạo hình thành bảo tàng và hiện được trưng bày ở tầng hai. Bức tượng phản ánh kĩ năng điêu luyện của các nhà đúc đồng Nhật Bản, cũng như sự quan tâm của Cernuschi đến nghệ thuật Phật giáo. Rất nhiều đồ vật, tranh, sách liên quan đến Phật giáo được ông bổ sung trong bộ sưu tập sau này.Khi đến Bắc Kinh, tiếp xúc với những người buôn đồ cổ ở phố Lưu Li Xưởng (Liulichang), Cernuschi quan tâm đến quá trình phát triển nghệ thuật đúc đồng của Trung Quốc. Không có đủ hiện vật để bắt đầu từ nguồn cội, dù ông có một đồ vật có từ thế kỷ II-TCN, nhà sưu tập Pháp nhấn mạnh đến cách sưu tập của người Trung Quốc, những ký tự được khắc trên đồ đồng hoặc tài liệu liên quan đến đồ đồng cổ dù ông không hiểu chữ Hoa.1.800 đồ vật trong Bộ sưu tập Việt Nam Bốn gian phòng triển lãm mới chỉ trưng bày được một phần rất nhỏ hiện vật được lưu trong kho của bảo tàng. Henri Cernuschi không đến Việt Nam nhưng bộ sưu tập Việt Nam trong bảo tàng có đến 1.800 đồ vật, chiếm 10% số đồ vật của bảo tàng, trải dài 2500 năm, từ thế kỷ V-TCN. Theo giám đốc Eric Lefebvre, bộ sưu tập Việt Nam không ngừng được mở rộng.“Henri Cernuschi không thăm được hết các nước châu Á. Bộ sưu tập của ông chủ yếu liên quan đến Nhật Bản và Trung Quốc. Sau khi ông qua đời, bảo tàng tiếp tục hoạt động và mở rộng các bộ sưu tập. Đặc biệt là trong những năm 1920-1930, bộ sưu tập Việt Nam được hình thành, chủ yếu liên quan đến Việt Nam cổ đại nhờ những công trình khảo cổ được tiến hành ở Việt Nam trong giai đoạn đó.Trước hết là những tác phẩm có từ thời văn minh Đông Sơn, cho thấy sự xuất hiện thời kỳ đồ đồng ở Việt Nam và những tác phẩm giai đoạn này. Tiếp theo chúng tôi cũng có những tác phẩm thời Giao Chỉ. Cuối cùng, công việc trong những năm gần đây của chúng tôi là kết nối giữa cổ đạivới hiện đại. Chúng tôi thắt chặt quan hệ với đồng nghiệp Việt Nam, các bảo tàng ở Việt Nam cũng như các nghệ sĩ Việt”.Theo trang web của bảo tàng, khoảng 100 đồ vật đầu tiên bằng đá, đồng và gốm liên quan đến Việt Nam được mua ngay năm 1927 từ doanh nhân Victor Demange ở Hà Nội và đam mê khảo cổ. Đến năm 1933, bảo tàng nhận được khoảng 50 đồ vật có niên đại thế kỷ X đến thể kỷ XV từ bộ sưu tập của doanh nhân Bỉ Clément Huet. Đến năm 1955, một chiếc vạc ba chân trong bộ sưu tập của Albert Pouyanne, thanh tra công chính Đông Dương trong thập niên 1920, được đưa vào bảo tàng.Sau đó, bộ sưu tập Việt Nam của bảo tàng Cernuschi được bổ sung từ ba chương trình khảo cổ trong những năm 1934-1939 của nhà khảo cổ Thụy Điển Olov Janse (1892-1985) kết hợp với Trường Viễn Đông Bác Cổ (EFEO). Hai chương trình đầu tiên (từ tháng 10/1934 - 05/1935 và từ tháng 10/1936 - 01/1938) do Hiệp hội Các Bảo tàng của thành phố Paris, các bảo tàng quốc gia và bộ Giáo Dục Pháp đồng tài trợ. Đồ vật tìm được được chia chủ yếu cho các Bảo tàng Cernuschi và Bảo tàng Guimet ở Pháp, Bảo tàng Louis Finot ở Hà Nội (nay là Bảo tàng Lịch sử Việt Nam).Đồ đồng và gốm sứ là hai lĩnh vực chủ đạo trong bộ sưu tập Việt Nam. Tuy nhiên, những năm gần đây, bảo tàng Cernuschi hướng đến nhiều lĩnh vực khác, theo giải thích của giám đốc Eric Lefebvre :“Hiện giờ chúng tôi quan tâm đến nghệ thuật Việt Nam trong nhiều lĩnh vực. Dĩ nhiên chúng tôi vẫn quan tâm đến nghệ thuật cổ của Việt Nam nhưng tập trung nhiều hơn vào nghệ thuật hiện đại, đặc biệt là đến những nghệ sĩ đã sống giữa Việt Nam và Pháp.Chúng tôi cũng được trao tặng rất nhiều. Món quà đặc biệt gần đây nhất là từ gia đình họa sĩ Mai Thứ, đã giúp mảng hội họa hiện đại của bảo tàng phong phú hơn. Đó là những tác phẩm được vẽ trên lụa, những bản thảo trên giấy mới được tặng lại cho bảo tàng. Để giới thiệu những bộ sưu tập này tới công chúng, chúng tôi thường tổ chức các buổi treo tranh bởi vì những tác phẩm này thường rất dễ hỏng nếu liên tục trưng bày. Ví dụ vào tháng 12/2023, chúng tôi sẽ triển lãm về phụ nữ Việt Nam trong nghệ thuật hiện đại. Sẽ có rất nhiều tranh của Nguyễn Phan Chánh, vì nghệ sĩ là gương mặt chính của đợt treo tranh kéo dài từ cuối năm 2023 đến những tuần đầu năm 2024.Năm 2024, chúng tôi sẽ tổ chức một triển lãm lớn dành riêng cho ba họa sĩ Việt Nam là Lê Phổ, Mai Thứ và Vũ Cao Đàm”.

Paris có đến hai bảo tàng lớn nhất nước Pháp dành riêng cho nghệ thuật châu Á : bảo tàng quốc gia Guimet và bảo tàng Cernuschi. Nằm ở quận 8, bảo tàng Cernuschi, trực thuộc thành phố, còn là bảo tàng lớn thứ năm dành cho nghệ thuật Trung Quốc tại châu Âu. Quá trình hình thành bảo tàng được tái hiện qua triển lãm Retour d'Asie. Henri Cernuschi, un collectionneur au temps du japonisme (Từ châu Á trở về. Henri Cernuschi, nhà sưu tập thời trào lưu Nhật Bản) từ ngày 06/10/2023 đến 04/02/2024. Từ khi mở cửa đón công chúng năm 1898, bảo tàng Cernuschi, mang tên nhà sưu tập, vị mạnh thường quân người Pháp gốc Ý, hiện có gần 15.000 đồ vật liên quan đến Trung Quốc, Việt Nam, Nhật Bản và Hàn Quốc. Henri Cernuschi (1821-1896) là ai ? Tại sao lại là “giai đoạn trào lưu Nhật Bản” ? RFI Tiếng Việt đặt câu hỏi với giám đốc bảo tàng Eric Lefebvre, tại lễ khai trương triển lãm ngày 05/10/2023.“Henri Cernuschi là người có cuộc sống muôn mặt, một cuộc đời đầy phiêu lưu và sự kiện. Ông sống ở Milan (Ý) thời trẻ và trải qua một giai đoạn vô cùng quan trọng : Năm 1848, ông tham gia phong trào cách mạng để lập nền Cộng Hòa ở Milan và tham gia nhóm lãnh đạo phong trào phản đối quân đội Áo. Sau đó, Cernuschi cũng rất năng động trong thời kỳ Cộng Hòa ngắn ngủi ở Roma. Phong trào cách mạng thất bại, ông đến Pháp bắt đầu một cuộc đời mới. Ông là nhà thầu trong rất nhiều lĩnh vực và cuối cùng giầu lên nhờ lĩnh vực tài chính. Dù vậy, ông vẫn luôn đam mê với tư tưởng chính trị, đến mức vào cuối Đế Chế 2 và khi nền Đệ Tam Cộng Hòa ra đời ở Pháp, ông nhập quốc tịch Pháp, dù sau đó, ông bị ám ảnh về những sự kiện bi thương giai đoạn Công Xã Paris. Sau Công Xã, lúc 50 tuổi, Cernuschi bắt đầu hành trình đến châu Á. Tại sao lại vượt Đại Tây Dương, băng qua Mỹ và Thái Bình Dương để đến châu Á ? Cần sống lại bối cảnh thời đó. Cả một bầu không khí mới mẻ, thịnh hành lúc đó, mà người ta gọi là “trào lưu Nhật Bản”. Ai cũng biết là giới nghệ sĩ, trí thức Pháp trong nửa sau thế kỷ 19 bị ảnh hưởng bởi xu hướng này. Qua đồ gốm sứ, các nghệ sĩ Pháp phát hiện ra tranh vẽ Nhật Bản nổi tiếng. Loại hình nghệ thuật này ảnh hưởng rất lớn đến các nghệ sĩ theo trường phái Ấn Tượng. Ở nửa sau thế kỷ 19, rất nhiều nhà trí thức và nghệ sĩ bắt đầu chu du đến châu Á. Cernuschi cũng vậy. Ông đến Nhật Bản trước tiên, sau đó đến Trung Quốc, Indonesia, Sri Lanka và Ấn Độ”.Cernuschi : Doanh nhân Pháp mang tâm hồn châu ÁỞ tuổi 50, Henri Cernuschi chu du thế giới với nhà báo Théodore Duret, cũng là một người Cộng Hòa. Chuyến đi kéo dài 16 tháng, từ tháng 07/1871 đến tháng 01/1873, đưa họ đi từ Liverpool (Anh) vượt Đại Tây Dương đến New York, đi xuyên Hoa Kỳ sang bờ Tây để từ San Francisco vượt Thái Bình Dương và đến Yokohama, Nhật Bản vào tháng 10/1871. Sau gần ba tháng ở Nhật Bản (Tokyo, Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto và Nara), họ đến Hoa lục (Bắc Kinh, Nội Mông, Hàng Châu, Thiên Tân, Nam Kinh), Hồng Kông, đảo Java (Jakarta, Bandung và Yogyakarta), Sri Lanka, đến Ấn Độ (Madurai, Calcutta, Agra, Rajastan, Ellora) và từ Mumbay về Liverpool (Anh).Hành trình của Cernuschi được thể hiện một cách sinh động, kết hợp âm thanh, hình ảnh, đồ vật trưng bày, cùng với lời bình của một hướng dẫn viên trong vòng một tiếng rưỡi để khách tham quan không bị nhàm chán. Giám đốc Eric Lefebvre cho biết tiếp :“Chúng tôi kỉ niệm một sự kiện quan trọng. Tròn 150 năm Henri Cernuschi kết thúc chuyến chu du châu Á, cho nên đây là dịp để tái hiện lại chuyến đi và để hiểu thêm về bộ sưu tập đặc biệt.

This episode is about delving deep into our ancient past to look at the possibility of the Jedi actually existing. Yeah I know, the Jedi are fictional characters but if you look at our past, be it hieroglyphs, ancient tablets, old stories, statues, buildings and artifacts you will see that numerous civilizations from all over the world spanning thousands of years have talked about or depicted certain individuals or even whole groups of people as gods. So the question then becomes who were these gods? Were these gods real or just products of superstition and myth? If they were real, were these gods human or some other type of entity? Show your support.

Ann O'Delia Diss Debar was a medium and a fortune teller who was once described by the famous performer Harry Houdini as, quote, “one of the most extraordinary fake mediums and mystery swindlers the world has ever known.” She made her name -- well, her many names -- as a spiritualist with occult powers, but she was 100 percent fraud. And from 1870 to 1910, she bilked people for millions of dollars around the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is a special, between-the-seasons episode of the New Bazaar.Right now, the white-to-black wealth ratio in the United States is roughly 6 to 1. Which means that when you add up all the wealth that someone can own—their cash, the value of their house, their investments in the stock market, and so on—the average White American has six times the wealth of the average Black American. That figure alone should be disturbing enough. But making it even worse is that this wealth ratio of 6 to 1 is about the same as it was back in the 1950s, seven decades ago. Some of the reasons for this long-term persistence of a big racial wealth gap are probably familiar to anyone who knows even just a little about American history. Not just the history of slavery, but also what came next: Jim Crow and segregation, the numerous racist laws and policies that were passed, and the history of racial violence—all of which made it impossible for Black Americans to accumulate as much wealth, and to get the same return on their wealth, as White Americans. Maybe less understood is another cause. If you consider the immediate aftermath of emancipation and the Civil War as a starting point, Black Americans simply began with much less wealth from which to build more wealth—and that initial difference has continued to have a big lingering effect even a century and a half later. These are just some of the conclusions in a new working paper from today's guest, Ellora Derenoncourt, and from her co-authors Chi Hyun Kim, Moritz Kuhn, Moritz Schularick. Ellora is an economist at Princeton University, where she is also founder of the Program for Research on Inequality. On this episode of New Bazaar, Cardiff speaks with Ellora about this fascinating paper and about some of her other related work.

This week, The Musafir Stories speaks to Sagar Senapati from Travel Safar aur Hum as we explore the historical town of Aurangabad.Today's destination: Aurangabad, MaharashtraNearest Airport: Aurangabad Airport (IXU)Nearest Railway Station: Aurangabad Railway Station (AWB)Prerequisites - N/APacking - Pack lightTime of the year - October to FebruaryLength of the itinerary: 2-3 daysItinerary Highlights: Sagar starts off the journey by taking an overnight bus to Aurangabad from Mumbai. The historic town is at a distance of about 300kms from Mumbai. Sagar spends the first day exploring the Ajanta caves. Along with Ellora, these cave temples are the first UNESCO world heritage site from India. Ajanta caves are about 4 hours away from Aurangabad. The caves contain intricate sculptures and frescos and are an exemplary form of buddhist architecture. Ellora on the other hand is a mix of Hindu, Buddhist and Jain rock cut caves and temples, the most popular being the Kailashnath temple or Cave 16. The next day's itinerary starts off with the Grishneshwar temple, one of the 12 jyotirlings of Hinduism. The temple is believed to be almost 1000 years old. The temple was reconstructed after previous Mughal destruction by queen Ahilyabai Holkar On the way from Ellora to Aurangabad, Sagar makes his next stop at the tomb of Aurangzeb, a very modest structure given he was one of the last powerful Mughal emperors. From here, Sagar visits the Devagiri fort, believed to be one of the most impregnable forts in India. The other structures within the complex include Chand Minar, similar to the Qutub minar The final destination on the itinerary is the Bibi ka Maqbara, a mausoleum built by Aurangzeb for his first wife, Dilras Banu Begum. The monument resembles the Taj Mahal but is on a much smaller scale. Make sure to enjoy a sunset at the maqbara to cap off your visit. Other places close by include Aurangabad caves, Panchakki and Shivaji Maharaj Museum. Also dont forget to try out the paan at the popular outlet Tara paan center and Paithani sarees.

Quando o sexo oral numa mulher deixa de ser prazeroso e passa a ser só desconforto? Quanto tempo deve durar o sexo oral? Quais são as regiões e os movimentos que dão mais prazer? O Prazer, Feminino deixa a teoria e vai logo para uma aulinha com dicas práticas sobre como fazer sexo oral bom numa mulher. Marcela McGowan e Karol Conka junto com a bailarina Brunna Gonçalves e as influencers Alexandra Gurgel e Ellora Haonne contam o lado delicioso e o lado constrangedor dessa modalidade sexual.

Depois de mais de dois anos confinadas às nossas casas, a liberdade nunca nos pareceu tão deliciosa - e merecida. Mas o quanto ainda lidamos com barreiras à ideia de sermos verdadeiramente livres, com limites internos que nos impedem de ocupar lugares e levar as nossas vidas pelos caminhos que sempre desejamos? Longe de nós desconsideramos o contexto do país, claro, mas é curioso como ainda colocamos a liberdade em manter a vida nos mesmos padrões de sempre, sem romper com laços e conceitos que, muitas vezes, podem nos fazer mal. Liberdade e o conhecimento sobre si andam de mãos dadas e essas duas ideias, juntas, podem nos levar por caminhos nunca antes desbravados, sejam profissionais ou pessoais. Afinal, nunca teremos todas as informações sobre nós mesmas entregues de bandeja - nós vamos, sim, precisar olhar para cada uma dessas pequenas muralhas que nos impedem de ser livres e encontrar maneiras de ultrapassá-las. Bom dia, Obvious! Hoje, Marcela Ceribelli, CEO e diretora criativa da Obvious, conversa a convite do C6 Bank e da Mastercard, com a influenciadora e nômade digital Ellora Raone sobre a liberdade para estar onde quiser.

Literatura e RPG são praticamente irmãos. Ambos se baseiam muito na criação de mundos, personagens, ambientação e narrativa para justificar a sua existência e, claro, o entretenimento da pessoa que está envolvida com a leitura ou o jogo. Isso é tão verdade que não raramente vemos jogadoras e jogadores de RPG se baseando em obras da literatura para montar suas aventuras, como também temos cada vez mais histórias baseadas em campanhas de RPG sendo transformadas em livros. A literatura tem o poder de levar um leitor assíduo para os jogos de interpretação de papéis, assim como o jogador de RPG também se enriquece ao consumir livros como fonte de inspiração. E um tema tão importante quanto esse merece ser debatido com alguém que tenha vasto conhecimento em ambas as áreas. Temos o orgulho de ter conosco, nesse episódio, o escritor de A Batalha do Apocalipse, Filhos do Éden e Santo Guerreiro, além RPGsita apaixonado, Eduardo Spohr! - Para conhecer melhor o trabalho do Eduardo Spohr, acesse o site oficial: eduardospohr.com.br - Se está interessado em saber mais sobre o livro do Thiago Pe, Arlock - um conto de Ellora, acesse: arlock.com.br Você pode ouvir o áudio completo em agregadores como Apple Podcast, Deezer, Anchor, Overcast e Spotify, e também em nosso site oficial: http://www.d12q.com.br Trilha sonora: Big Blues by Audionautix http://audionautix.com Royalty Free Music from Bensound

We discuss the history of the Bhanja dynasty, written history of which dates back to 598 AD. The erstwhile capital of the Bhanja dynasty - Kiching, as well as Haripur and later Baripada. Akshita talks about the prominent rulers of the dynasty including His Highness Sriram Chandra Deo, the philosopher King and Maharani Sumitra Devi. Mayurbhanj is known as the land of arts and culture due to its abundance of diversity in craft inspired by its local community. We hope you can come experience this beautiful land with the same sense of wonder and amazement as we do everyday.The Belgadia palace was initially built as a place for foreign visitors, dignitaries and investors. It currently serves as the royal residence as well as a boutique heritage property. We discuss the idea of Belgadia palace to be a platform for the community and to do so in a sustainable and effective way, supporting local artists and art forms. The architecture of the Belgadia palace is also very unique with Greek and Roman influence. The interiors have been curated from previous palaces and include high ceilings, antique furniture, colourful rooms and suites, with wooden staircase, full-length arch windows, dark teak wood furniture, and chandeliers dangling from wooden ceilings.A few visiting dignitaries have included Irish theosophist Dr. Annie Besant, the first Chief Minister of Odisha Harekrushna Mahatab, award winning Indian artist Hemendranath Mazumdar and the Royal family of Nepal among others.Things to do in Mayurbhanj include The Simlipal National Park, Barehipani Falls, Sami Brukhya, Sitakund waterfall, Baldiha Dam, a visit to Sabai and Dokra handicraft villages Jagannath and Khiching Temple, events such as Rath Yatra (July), Chhau* Festival (April) (*a semi classical dance combining martials arts and folk dance)The Mayurbhanj cuisine in the palaces featured a motley underdog sturdy Indian vegetables such as pumpkin, brinjal, potato and a wide variety of local gourds and their flowers, roots, stems and tubers.One iconic dish that has trickled down to present day Orissa is a dish that originated in the royals kingdom—mudhi mansa. This dish provided a filling combination of carbs and protein and was used by kings to feed battle-weary soldiers in order to provide them with strength.

GIVEAWAY Alert: Answer 3 questions linked below and stand a chance to win - https://forms.gle/J2h6mmtLQV3vsMrE9This week, The Musafir Stories speaks with a returning guest, Anirudh Kanisetti, as we discuss Ellora and his debut book, Lords of the Deccan!Today's destination: Ellora, MaharashtraNearest Airport: Aurangabad Airport, IXUNearest Railway Station: Aurangabad Railway station, AWBPrerequisites - N/APacking - Pack light, carry extra liquids as it can get hot during the dayTime of the year - Year round, except summersLength of the itinerary: 3-5 daysItinerary Highlights: Anirudh starts by explaining the orientation of the Deccan region, surrounded by the Vindhyas to the north, Western and eastern ghats to the west and east respectively and the Tamil country to the south. Anirudh also talks about the historical significance of the palace, a brief history of the rulers over time as well as the natural history of the DeccanWe narrow down on the Ellora cave temples, a set of over a hundred cave temples that date back to the 7th century built by Buddhists, Hindus and Jain patrons. 34 of those temples are now open to the public and offer a view into the architectural and engineering brilliance of that time. We discuss about the dominant Rashtrakuta empire who ruled the sub-continent during this time, were believed to be vassals/feudatories of the Chalukyan dynasty and had humble beginnings. Anirudh speaks about the magnificent Cave 16 or Kailashnath temple, believed to be inspired by the Kailash mountain, the abode of Lord Shiva. We speak about the backstory of how the temple is believed to have been constructed from a monolith and is the largest such structure during its time. The temple was constructed by excavating 2 million cubic feet of basalt rock, probably formed during the cretaceous era which led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. Anirudh gives wonderful descriptions of the architecture of the temple, some prominent sculptures as well as the sheer engineering and architectural brilliance of the builders. We cap off the episode by discussing other important temples of the complex, including Buddist and Jain caves/temples.

In recent years, decreasing federal minimum wage, low unionization rates and growing outsourcing trends have had some important effects on wage growth in the US low wage sector. As major firms throughout the world come under scrutiny for their failure to compensate their workers fairly, it is becoming increasingly necessary to better understand what motivates companies to mirror other larger firms' wage changes. In this episode, Ellora Derenoncourt explains that when it comes to wage changes, just a few large employers in the labor market can have substantial ripple effects. Using the examples of firms like Amazon, Walmart and Target, she looks at why some companies feel compelled to follow in the footsteps of larger actors.

कहने को तो विदिशा मध्य प्रदेश का एक छोटा सा शहर है लेकिन यहाँ दो ढाई हज़ार साल पहले तक के ऐसे अविशेष मिलते हैं जो ये बताते हैं कि जगह छोटी भले ही हो लेकिन है गहरी। सम्राट अशोक के समय से पहले के अवशेष हों या यहाँ के म्यूजियम में रखी यक्ष की मूर्ति सभी इसके समृद्ध इतिहास की गवाही देते हैं। और सबसे अहम तो है बीज मंडल या विजय मंदिर जिसमें आपको नए संसद भवन की झलक भी देखने को मिलती है। Vault of history: Vidisha The small town of Vidisha in Madhya Pradesh has the distinction of having a continuous history that's more than two millennia old. From the times of Ashoka to present day it has an unbroken chain of evidence that suggests it was an important trade route in the past. Even today it's Vijay temple or Beej Mandir is in the news for its uncanny resemblance to the new parliament building that's being built in New Delhi.

Many people I interview set off down one path and then change their direction. Listen to Anil describe growing up with his extended family in Chikhli, Maharastra, working in his uncle's shop aged 9 and thinking he wanted to be like the salesmen who visited.   After training in commerce and marketing he realised one day that he wanted to do something that answered the question 'Am I helping nature?'  The two World Heritage sites he mentions near him are the Ellora and Ajanta caves.  

Ser nômade não é nenhuma novidade, remontando desde antes das civilizações, quando éramos caçadores e coletores que migravam pelas terras de acordo com a sazonalidade da disponibilidade de alimento. No entanto, com a agricultura, lógica industrial e capitalista, acabamos por escolher nos assentar. Nas últimas décadas, facilitado pela tecnologia, tem-se visto uma crescente em pessoas que se veem retomando o ancestral estilo de vida nômade. Algumas pessoas recorrem a esse estilo de vida por um misto de necessidade e vontade - como muito bem representado no filme ganhador do Oscar de 2021, "Nomadland", em que pessoas encurraladas pelo sistema imobiliário e de trabalho norte-americano acabaram por se encontrar. Outras, por opção - a partir de uma vontade sem um imperativo econômico em especial. E, nesse contexto, estamos aqui. Somos uma geração de pessoas que se vê em um novo contexto tecnológico, com novas formas de trabalho e um sonho na cabeça. Convidamos Ellora Haonne para a gente bater um papo sobre essa "nova" (mas na verdade velha) forma de viver.

Ellora stops by the studio to talk about Marvel super heroes.

It is release week for some of our favorite people, and we're here to celebrate with them! Join us for a wild conversation about the books Jen refers to as “the brightest bananas on the tree” — each of us has selected a truly wild ride of a book, and we're going to share them with you! We also talk about their fabulous new release, now Sarah's favorite CLo book, The Soulmate Equation. Preorder it at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Bookshop.org, or signed from Vroman's bookstore! Our next read along is out of print (but available in audio!), so you will have to do a bit of a used bookstore hunt to get it! Get Anne Stuart's truly eye-widening Tangled Lies at your local library or via a used bookseller near you. We recommend checking Amazon, eBay & Thrift Books. Thank you, as always, for listening! Please follow us on your favorite podcasting app, and if you are up for leaving a rating or review there, we would be very grateful!Show NotesIf you'd like to order signed copies of The Soulmate Equation, check out Vroman's Bookstore or the other book shops on CLo's virtual book tour. Tonight, 5/19/2021, Christina and Lauren are celebrating the launch of The Soulmate Equation with Sarah, Xio Axelrod, and Rachel Epstein. If you want to dive into the Theranos story, Lo recommends the book Bad Blood by John Carreyrou, and the New York Times has a list of recommended things to read and watch. 23 & Me and other DNA Ancestry tests can tell you some things: whether or not you think cilantro tastes like soap, and about the size of our hair follicles, but as of right now, science can't tell you much about your fated mate, I mean soulmate.Questions about the future of technology and how it intersects with humanity make for great television in shows like Black Mirror, The One, and Casual.I don't know, maybe you've heard about there being a fundamental incompatibility between science and religion, but others are pretty sure we can work it out.If you're not a sportsball fan, Michael Jordan is a kind of a big deal. Aphrodisia was a short-lived Kensington imprint that focused on erotica and erotic romance, it ran from 2006 to 2014. Jen asked if it was Ellora's Cave, which was another powerhouse erotic romance publisher that shuttered in 2014. A satyr is a magical creature from Greek mythology, so we're not sure if they 1) have two dicks and 2) if they are covered in soft fur. You're going to have to use your own imagination.We all hope that Nicholas the satyr is a little sexier that Mr. Tumnus from the movie version of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.Slate had a woman asking for advice about her pandemic threesome with two brothers, and you can tell a romance reader didn't write that advice, because probably they could work that out. Jen alerted Jenny Nordbak immediately, of course. Are you also looking for monster fucking romances? If you need a quick review on alpha traits, listen to our episode from season two.Knotting isn't just for A/B/O, it's also in romance. Same with mPreg romances and DP (which no one has made a list of!), in case you need a primer. Lo is looking for a romance that she thinks is called Passionate Ink about an octopus shifter tattoo artist...Maybe? Christina wants your favorite mPreg romance recommendation. We'll also take marriage of convenience recs and secret scar recs if you're in the mood.More about the word "quim" and how it was used in that Avengers movie. Next up, Tangled Lies by Anne Stuart. Buy it used because it's not avaible as an eBook.

Świątynie to nieodłączny element krajobrazu i kultury Indii. Widzieliśmy je w Puri, Bhubaneswar i Konarak (w stanie Orisa), w Maduraj, Tańdźawur, Kanchipuram i Kanyakumari (w stanie Tamilnadu).Resztki świątyń, domów i grobowców odnaleźliśmy na największym na świecie polu ruin - w Hampi w stanie Karnataka, a w stanie Maharasztra podziwialiśmy kompleksy świątyń wykutych w skałach (Ajanta i Ellora).Podróż zaczęliśmy i zakończyliśmy w megamiastach: Kolkacie i Mumbaju. Zajrzeliśmy do największego slumsu w Indiach, drugiego co do wielkości w Azji i trzeciego na świecie – Dharavi.Gościem Jerzego Jopa była Danuta Rasała.

A general synopsis of Mud Flood theory is that within the last 100-1000 years, civilization was reset and humanity lost much of its knowledge and many advanced technologies. This reset was caused by a huge flood that covered the land in a few feet worth of sediment. A few theorists equate this flood with the great flood of the Bible; if this theory is true, it would throw the Bible’s timeline off by more than a thousand years.

It’s getting colder out there, so we’re getting hot in here! We’ve got the fabulous Katee Robert with us to talk about ménage romance and why she writes them so well. We get to the bottom of why it always gets shoved into the taboo corner of romance, the fantasy of the trope, and why we like it so very much. Also, we topple the TBR (as usual)!Thank you, as always, for listening! If you are up for leaving a rating or review for the podcast on your podcasting app, we would be very grateful! Slight change of schedule to accommodate a fun thing we’re up to…next week, just in time for your Thanksgiving sloth, we’re announcing our best books of 2020! The following week, we’re reading Sally Thorne’s The Hating Game! Get it at Amazon, B&N, Kobo, Apple or at your local indie via bookshop.org.Show NotesWelcome Katee Robert! You can’t just make wikipedia pages about yourself. High fantasy has real meaning. When talking about romance, M and F (and NB for nonbinary) are used to inform readers about the gender identity of the main characters. This is an imperfect shorthand, but at this point in our understanding of sex and gender, it seems like the most respectful way to acknowledge that there is a huge range of sexual identities that exist for people of all genders. For example, if we call a book with two women “a lesbian romance” it might not take into account that one character is bisexual, which adds to bi-erasure. So if a romance is labeled M/F, we know there is a man and a woman in a romantic relationship, but that leaves room for the sexual identity of the characters to be fully explored in the book. In romance with more than two people, the order of the letters matters. A book that is MFM would mean that the two men do not have a sexual relationship with each other, while FMM or MMF means that they do. There is nothing taboo about polyamory. Jen liked the progression of menage in Elle Kennedy’s Out of Uniform series. The series starts with a non-swords crossing threesome, Hot and Bothered. The observing one was Heat of the Night (available in the Hot and Heavy anthology), where Ryan watches Annabelle have sex with his roommate. But as the series progresses, there is contact between the SEALs in Feeling Hot and a fully formed menage relationship in Hotter Than Ever. Ellora’s Cave and Samhain were two of the original (and now shuttered) indie publishers that specialized in erotic romance and/or taboo romance. That article in Harpers about how men don’t have friends. The Anita Blake series went through a lot of changes, so just go with Katee’s method and start with #9, Obsidian Butterfly.Katee will be back to talk about morality chain in 2021. Next week, we’ll be airing our Best of 2020 episode, and then the first week of December, we’ll be discussing The Hating Game.

RPG, sigla para Role-Playing Game (ou jogo de interpretação de papéis) é um termo popular no âmbito nerd, mas você sabe exatamente do que se trata? Nesse episódio do Dodecaedro Quinado, feiticeiro Joreg, ladrão Thiago Pe e paladino Glenyo irão apresentar aos ouvintes o conceito de RPG, explicar - talvez não da forma mais didática - como o jogo funciona, dar dicas preciosas, contar algumas de suas aventuras nas mesas de RPG e, principalmente, demonstrar o apreço que possuem por essa apaixonante vertente da cultura nerd.

In this episode of Highway On My Podcast, Rocky, Mayur, Abhinandan and Prashant drive off to Abhinandan’s home state of Uttarakhand. Abhinandan starts off by expressing his disappointment at how Dehradun has become cluttered with traffic and urbanisation. The team then visits the Indian Military Academy, one of the most efficiently functioning institutions in the country. They describe how a sense of “nation first” is instilled in young cadets here — and how nobody lays out a party like the army does! Rocky also explains why first-year cadets can’t ride bicycles to commute from one place to another. The team leaves the academy behind to visit places that hold nostalgic value for Abhinandan and Rocky. First up, they remember a Bhaang Ki Chutney they sampled in Dehradun, where weed is abundant. Abhinandan takes listeners to his alma mater, the Doon School, before the team heads to Ellora’s bakery in Dehradun to have lemon tarts and lemon custard. Hopping on to another food favourite, the group goes to Kumar’s, next to the Ghanta Ghar, where Mayur remembers the unconventional Lauki ke Laddoo. Driving towards Mussoorie, the team halts at Rose Restaurant on Rajpur Road where a gentleman serves delicious Pakodas. In Mussoorie, they debate what makes the Lovely Omelette Centre famous across India. The discussion spans ghosts, and softies, hot chocolate and Kalimpong Lollipops at the Chic Chocolate cafe. Heading to the neighbouring area of Landour, Prashant brings up the Devdar Woods restaurant, one of his favourite places in the region, with its coziness, scrumptious wood-fired pizzas, and fantastic coffee. Moving on to Haridwar, the team looks out for Mathura Walon Ki Pracheen Dukaan, a place famous for its pumpkin preparations. They attend the evening aarti at Haridwar, with its mystical atmosphere on the banks of the river as the sun sets. They then head to Kathgodam, the last train station in this region, where they visit Lee’s restaurant. They also discuss boating in Nainital, the Patal Bhuvaneshwar caves, and sift through Rocky’s list of secret places across Uttarakhand.All this and more, only on Highway On My Podcast.

Many studies have come out suggesting a disproportionate burden of illness and death among racial and ethnic minority groups during this Covid-19 crisis. And certainly one cannot attribute this phenomenon simply to the virus itself, but much due to the underlying structural fractures of the American society in its treatment of racial and ethnic minorities for years and decades. In this interview, Dr. Ellora Derenoncourt of UC Berkley and Princeton provides a detailed historical analysis on racial and economic inequality since the days of the Great Migration and discusses possible post-Covid policy measures to address those critical concerns. Her fascinating research on the Great Migration shows that the beautiful idea of "moving to opportunity" for black families no longer holds true, as the Great Migration cities have typically responded to the influx of black migrants with increasing segregation and spending on policing. The dynamic response from local residents and governments paint a gloomy picture on whether migration can actually lead to better outcomes for black households. We also dive deep into another strand of her research – the effect of federal minimum wage on the black-white earnings gap. Because many minorities work retail jobs, the increase in minimum wage might simply encourage employers to adopt automation and replace the workers. Therefore, the adoption of minimum wage may further incentivize companies to automate away jobs and increase the racial earnings gap. Lastly, Ellora talks about how WWII is analogous to our current crisis, as consumer production was also slowed to benefit the war effort then, similar to the current economic freeze. What policy prescriptions should we yield from this analysis? Is it safe to expect a post-pandemic boom similar to that of the postwar era? Is this analogy complicated by the fact that there is no war effort toward which we are redirecting economic output that could serve to stimulate the economy? We discuss how the government can incorporate racial and social considerations when enacting fiscal policies and the wider impacts of our decisions today on inequality. Ellora Derenoncourt is an incoming assistant professor in the Department of Economics and the Goldman School of Public Policy at University of California, Berkeley. Her research interests lie in labor economics, economic history, and inequality.

Praveen Mohan is known for his groundbreaking research on ancient history, archeology, and extraterrestrial theory. Traveling widely around the world, his initial work on ancient mysteries began in Peru, posting his findings online about Nazca lines and Machu Picchu. In the first half of 2014, he began posting videos about ancient megalithic structures of India. His YouTube videos about Ellora caves and ancient machining technology have been aired on TV shows and documentaries. His findings are radical and show deep insight into understanding ancient texts and symbology. He recently discovered India's oldest sundial, explaining how to decode Hindu symbols step by step. He has also proved the presence of Europeans and Africans in ancient India. In the latter half of 2014 and 2015 Praveen began exploring ancient mounds of America. He has argued that since these mounds can be understood from air, they must have been made for extraterrestrials. During this time, he began researching the theory that the moundbuilders were giants, who stood over 7 feet tall. He has also explored some of the baffling modern structures including Cave of Kelpius and Pyramids in Pennsylvania. His work on Georgio Guidestones was featured in Alex Jones Channel in 2015. He is also known for debunking various myths including gravity hill at Pittsburgh and the hanging pillar at Lepakshi Temple. Praveen Mohan is also popular among paranormal researchers in the United States. His footage about Robert the Doll, and Green Man's Tunnel have been aired on Multiple TV shows and documentaries. In June 2016, Praveen published his first book titled 'Coral Castle:Everything You Know Is Wrong', which is still the best rated book on the subject. In September 2016, he made his first appearance at Ancient Aliens Tv Show in history channel. Even though his footage has been widely used before on many TV shows and documentaries, this was the first time he personally appeared on air. Praveen keeps his personal life secretive, never discussing it on camera. On Ancient Aliens show however, he revealed that he grew up in a strict hindu family, which helped him to read Indian scriptures extensively. During his interview with Author Ed Grondine, Ed revealed that Praveen's hometown was Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Little is known about how he manages to travel around the world independently. Even though he replies to most of his fans, he never reveals anything about his personal life. In october 2016, Praveen revealed that he was doing a long term expedition in India exploring ancient structures, and showed a glimpse of remote caves which have not been visited in the last few centuries. After 6 months of inactivity, he has begun posting new videos, revealing many startling secrets hidden in Indian temples and caves. He has also raised awareness about unprotected ancient temples and has asked people to come forward to help them get protected. Praveen currently has over 100,000 subscribers and nearly 30 million views on YouTube.

  Episode 002 | March 20, 2020 Enabling Rural Communities to Participate in Crowdsourcing, with Dr. Vivek Seshadri Crowdsourcing platforms and the gig economy have been around for a while. But are they equally accessible to all communities? Dr. Vivek Seshadri, a researcher at Microsoft Research India, doesn’t think so, and is trying to change this. On this podcast, Vivek talks about what motivated him to focus on research that can help underserved communities, and in particular, about Project Karya, a new platform to provide digital work to rural communities. The word “Karya” literally means “work” in a number of India languages. Vivek primarily works with the Technology for Emerging Markets group at Microsoft Research India. He received his bachelor's degree in Computer Science from IIT Madras, and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University where he worked on problems related to Computer Architecture and Systems. After his Ph.D., Vivek decided to work on problems that directly impact people, particularly in developing economies like India.

(Music plays) Host: Welcome to the Microsoft Research India podcast, where we explore cutting-edge research that’s impacting technology and society. I’m your host, Sridhar Vedantham. Crowdsourcing platforms and the gig economy have been around for a while. But are they equally accessible to all communities? Dr. Vivek Seshadri, a researcher at Microsoft Research India, doesn’t think so, and is trying to change this. On this podcast, Vivek talks about what motivated him to focus on research that can help underserved communities, and in particular, about Project Karya, a new platform to provide digital work to rural communities.

After his Ph.D., Vivek decided to work on problems that directly impact people, particularly in developing economies like India. (Music plays) HOST: Vivek, welcome to the podcast. Vivek: Thanks, Sridhar. This is the first time I am doing anything like this, so I am really excited and a little bit nervous. Host: Oh, I don't think there's anything to be nervous about really here. You guys are used to speaking in public all the time. So, I'm sure it'll be fine. Vivek, you are a computer scientist and you did your PhD in Computer Science in Systems, right? What made you gravitate towards research that helps underserved communities, typically the kind of research that one associates with the ICTD space? Vivek: So, Sridhar, when I finished my PhD in 2016, I sort of had two decisions to make- should I stay in the US or should I move back to India? Should I stay in the same area that I am doing research in or should I move to a different field? Both these questions were sort of answered when I visited MSR and had interactions with people like Bill Thies. The kind of research that they were doing impressed me and also influenced me to make the decision to come back to India and work on similar problems that directly impact people. Host: That's interesting. So this is something that was brought upon by meeting people in the lab here rather than something that was there in your mind all along. Vivek: Absolutely. Actually, when I started my PhD, I wanted to come back and become professor in places like IIT or IISc. And when I moved back, I was actually introduced to MSR by one of my friends who actually visited MSR before me. And I just thought I'll pay a visit. And the conversations that I had with people here, sort of made my decision absolutely easy. Host: And the rest is history, as they say. Vivek: Absolutely. It’s been three years since I moved here and I couldn't be happier. Host: Great. So Vivek, walk us through this project called Karya, which I know you have been associated with for quite a while. What exactly is project Karya and what are your goals with that project? Vivek: So, there are two trends that enables or motivates the need for a project like Karya. The first trend is that there is a digital revolution in the world today, where improvements in technologies like Machine Learning are allowing people to interact with devices using natural language. The second trend is specific to India where we are trying to push towards a digital future which is creating a lot of tasks like audio transcription, document digitization, etc. Both these trends are going to result in a huge amount of what we call digital work. And the goal for project Karya is to take this digital work and make it accessible to people from rural communities who typically have very low incomes today and are predominantly stuck with physical labor. We believe completing these digital tasks and getting paid for them will be a valuable source of supplemental income for people from rural communities. Host: Crowdsourcing and crowdsourcing platforms have been around for quite a while now. And they are also well-established methods of gig work. So what's the need for another approach or a different framework like Karya? Vivek: That's a great question. If you look at crowdsourcing platforms today, there are a number of challenges that actually prevent them from being accessible to people from rural communities. Specifically, let me describe to you three challenges. The first one is, most of these platforms contain tasks only in English. And all their task descriptions, everything, is in English which is completely inaccessible to rural communities. Secondly, if you go to rural India today, the notion of digital work is completely alien to them. In fact, when we went to rural communities in our first visit and told them we will actually pay some money for completing some set of digital tasks, they looked at us in disbelief. Like they actually didn't believe that we are going to pay them until we actually did. So, there is this huge issue of awareness. And finally, there is a logistical challenge here. Most crowdsourcing platforms will assume that the end-user has a computer and constant access to internet. This is actually a luxury in many rural communities in India even today. Host: So, does Karya enable people to use their existing skillsets and knowledge to earn supplemental or extra income? Vivek: So, Sridhar, like I mentioned, there are two sources of digital work that we are looking at currently. One is creating label data sets for models like automatic speech recognition, and other language-based machine learning models. The second source of digital work that we are looking at is things like speech transcription or document digitization, which the government is very extremely interested in. Now depending on what type of task we are going to do, people may have to be able to read in their regional language or type in their regional language. Now, when it comes to reading, we find that most people from rural communities are adept at reading in their regional language. When it comes to typing, as you can imagine there are not many good keyboards that will allow you to type in your local language. This is something that most people in rural communities have never done before. In fact, even though, most people in rural communities are not familiar with English, they actually use a very crude form of transliteration to actually communicate in their regional languages. That's what we observed- most people used WhatsApp and when communicating with each other they actually use transliteration in English and not type in their native language. Host: So, you are saying that there is a large number of people who are actually typing in the English script, but the language that they are representing is their own vernacular. Vivek: Exactly. And the transliteration is very crude. They know what sounds each English alphabet corresponds to and they just put together a bunch of characters next to each other and it's almost like they have created a whole new script for their local language. Host: Right. Vivek: But something like that wouldn't actually be useful for us. We would want them to type in their local language. For instance, let’s take an example of document digitization. The idea there is, the government has a whole of government records which contain hand-written words in their local language. It could be names of people, it could be addresses, etc. When I want to digitize these documents, I may actually want someone to type out the names that they see in the document in the local language. Now, there, I would actually want them to use the native script. And not, some crude form of transliteration. Host: Sure. Vivek: So, in this particular case, we actually used a keyboard that was developed by IIT Bombay called Swarachakra. And our users actually learnt to use that keyboard within a very short span of time and they were able to perform extremely well in the task that we had assigned them. Host: So, it sounds like there is a lot of work that is readily available. What is required is to actually deliver it and make it possible for people to leverage that work in order to earn extra income. Vivek: Absolutely. Actually, the government of India has its own crowdsourcing platform, where they outsource text digitization like I mentioned to anyone in India who wants to do it. Unfortunately, even that platform is not accessible to rural communities. If I go to rural India and ask anyone about that platform, they wouldn't know anything about it. So, in some sense, there is work that is readily available, but there is this huge gap in access. Host: And the gap in access is because these platforms work on their traditional paradigm of needing a desktop computer with an internet connection? Vivek: Exactly. In fact, the platform that the Government of India has, it’s a website that you have to access and you need internet connection to receive tasks and complete tasks. And our goal is to sort of eliminate that requirement. In fact, the goal of project Karya is to enable anyone with just a smartphone to be able to perform digital tasks on their phone. (Music plays) Host: I know you've already conducted some experiments with Karya. And you've also published a paper in Chi in 2019. Can you walk us through some of the results of the experiments that you've conducted? Vivek: So, one of the biggest challenges in creating a platform like Karya is the perceived lack of trust in rural labor. When we actually spoke to many potential work providers on whether they would be willing to outsource their work to rural workers, one of the first questions that they ask is if they can trust the quality of labor that we get from rural workers. So, in the Chi paper, what we wanted to sort of evaluate was the accuracy and effectiveness with which workers from rural India can actually complete a specific type of digital task. So, in that particular paper, we actually looked at text digitization, where the task is as simple as the user is shown an image of an hand-written text and all they had to do was type out whatever word they see in the particular image. And of course, they will be given thousands of images that they have to digitize over a period of two weeks. And what we actually found in the paper was that workers from rural India actually did fantastically well. In fact, in a crowdsource setting, they outperformed a professional transcription firm to which we gave the same data set. So, that was very interesting for us. Host: That’s really interesting. Do you have any insights into why that might have happened or, how this community of people that you engaged with were able to outperform professional services? Vivek: So, with respect to the performance of the transcription firm itself, we could only guess, because it was a black box for us. We just gave them the data set and asked them to provide the results and the results that we got were not that good. But we can definitely guess why workers from rural communities did so well. First of all, the additional income that workers from rural communities are getting out of completing these tasks is significant. So, for them there is actually a fear that they may not get paid if they don’t complete the tasks accurately. So, from that point of view, most users paid extreme attention to completing the tasks accurately. And these workers also found it a lot of fun. Like I mentioned before, most of their current work is typically physical labor, be it farming, many of them are actually unemployed. So, for them, this is actually a fun activity that they can do together with their friends where they also get some money. So, from their point of view, it was both fun and it gave them very very valuable supplemental income. I think both these were significant factors in the rural workers performing really well in the task that we gave them. Host: Your Chi paper was based on text digitization by members of rural communities. But have you looked at other types of tasks that can be completed through Karya? Vivek: Yes. Actually, as we were working on the platform, we realized that there is a real need for speech data sets in various languages in India. In fact, in our very lab, Kalika Bali, who is a researcher, is working on this project called Ellora, whose goal it is, is to create voice technologies for all the languages in India. One of the fundamental bottlenecks in achieving this is labeled speech data sets. A labeled speech data set is essentially a data set that contains various audio recordings, and the transcripts that correspond to those recordings. We actually found a mechanism to use Karya to collect such a data set for various languages. In fact, we have an ongoing study where we are collecting hundreds of hours of speech data for languages for which there is almost no data today. Host: So, when you give out these speech collection tasks, what is the actual process, how does it actually work? Vivek: So, at the lowest level, the task is essentially for the user to read out, record themselves reading out a sentence. However, to make the task more fun, we actually made them read out stories. Some empowering stories, some stories about history of our country, some stories about popular figures like Buddha, and users really liked reading out stories as opposed to reading out random bits of sentences. Host: So, we've been talking about Karya as a project in which we are helping or building a new paradigm in crowdsourcing. What are the actual components that go into Karya as a system? Vivek: So, Sridhar, if you look at any crowdsourcing platform that is out there today there are two major components. One is the server that actually contains all the tasks that have to be completed, that is the component that work providers interact with to submit the task that they want to get completed. The second component is actually the client that the workers will use to actually complete the tasks. In a typical crowdsourcing platform where internet connection is assumed, the client will directly talk to the server, get the tasks and the responses are also directly submitted to the server. Host: Right. Vivek: Now, like I mentioned, most rural communities in India do not have internet connectivity. In fact, two of the three locations that we have worked with have absolutely no connectivity. Which means a platform that assumes internet connectivity is going to exclude those people from participating in the platform and get paid for completing valuable tasks. Host: So, how do you bridge that? Vivek: So, the way we bridge this gap is by introducing this third component that we are calling a Karya Box. Now, the Karya Box is essentially a device that we will place in the village where we want to work with people. And you can think of the box as a local crowdsourcing server for that particular village. Host: Okay. Vivek: So, the Karya Box will essentially act as a local crowdsourcing server in the village where we have placed it. Users in the village can directly interact with the box through the Wi-Fi access point that the box will expose. So, anyone with a smartphone can just connect to the Karya box Wi-Fi and then interact with the box to get tasks and submit their responses as well. Now the question is, how does the box communicate with our server? Host: Yeah. Vivek: So, in most villages which do not have connectivity what we observe is there are definitely people who go to nearby cities for work or even to get digital content that they can get back to the village. What we need to do is to employ someone like that who can carry the box to a location where is internet connectivity, periodically, maybe once a day or even once a week. And at that instant, when the box gets connectivity to the server it can exchange, both the responses that have been submitted already by the rural workers and also get any new tasks for the village, if any. Host: That seems to be a smart and inexpensive way to get around the lack of connectivity issue. Vivek: Absolutely. Actually, I can tell you a story around this. Host: Oh, please, we love stories. Vivek: When we did our recent study, we actually deployed the box in the village. That village actually has really good connectivity. So, we were actually expecting the box to be in regular contact with our server. But due to various reasons, there was an internet shutdown in the village for the first one week after we deployed the box. But there you go. Our system actually worked because it does not assume that the box regularly talks to the server. Host: I am assuming and correct me if I'm wrong, that a lot of the people who are interacting with the system, the Karya app especially on the phone, right, they'd be doing something of this nature for the first time. How did people typically find working with the Karya app and were there significant hurdles, were there issues in the communities that you went and did your experiments with? Vivek: So, like I mentioned before, most people actually found doing this kind of an activity a lot of fun. So, from that point of view, there was not much boredom even though the tasks were extremely repetitive. Now imagine, looking at words screen after screen and typing them out or sentences screen after screen and reading them out. This is probably a very mundane task for people in urban communities. But for people in rural communities, where they don't get to do this kind of thing very often or even interact with a smartphone very often, they actually found it a lot of fun. In fact, many people actually found some sense of pride in actually completing tasks in their local language. (Music plays) Host: It seems like this kind of digital work has the potential over time to provide people with livelihoods and enhance existing incomes. Do you think there is a potential downside to digital work or a potential downside to the online gig economy? Vivek: Definitely, there is a limitation, similar to any other gig economy, like your, cab-hailing services where it's a physical gig work that you are doing, or delivering food, it's again a physical gig economy. As more people join the platform, the amount of work that is going to be available for every individual person is going to go down. So in that sense, one should not think of even the digital gig economy as a sustainable source of livelihood. So from that point of view, one of the limitations is the excitement that workers in rural communities have for such kinds of tasks. These tasks are much easier to complete than the task that they are involved in right now. And they also pay much higher than the task that they are doing right now. So there is definitely the possibility that some of them may think this is a much more lucrative job that will provide a full-time income for them. But we have to warn them in advance, saying, this is not the case. Host: So expectation setting is going to be key. Vivek: Expectation setting is, in fact, a huge part of what we need to do when we actually scale out the platform. In fact, even for the small studies that we conducted in these villages where studies were for a period of two weeks, during which time people may earn let's say 3000 rupees, their question at the end of the study is, "When are you going to come back?" Right? So, that sort of enthusiasm is both encouraging and scary. Because, if you don't have a sustainable source of work that you can provide to these villagers, it can end up in disappointment. Host: Was there anything that surprised you when you were working with and when you were talking to various communities during the experiments with Karya? Vivek: Yes. Actually, two things stood out for us. The first thing is, how inclusive the notion of digital work can be when it comes to employing people from diverse backgrounds. What we observed was, women who were typically not allowed to get out of their house in rural communities for various reasons were able to participate on our platform and actually earn income for the first time in their lives. People with physical disabilities were able to participate on our platform. Host: That must have felt extremely empowering for them. Vivek: Absolutely. And the second thing that we observed is like I mentioned before, this sense of pride that they had when they were completing tasks in their local language. Like I mentioned before, this is not something that they get to do often. In fact, in one of our studies where the task involved was recording themselves reading out stories, many people actually went over and did the tasks all over again, just so that they can read the stories to their kids or to the community. This is something that was completely surprising to us. Now imagine if someone in an urban community would actually be willing to do that. Host: Yeah. That's good food for thought. So it certainly seems like your experiments with Karya show that it's got a huge amount of promise and potential. Over time, where to you see or where do you hope to see Karya? Vivek: So Sridhar, like I mentioned, as language technologies keep improving the need for creating these technologies for various Indian languages is only going to increase. There are going to be many startups which would want data sets for creating the models that they want in local languages. We believe, with our insights and solutions that we have built for creating a crowdsourcing platform for rural communities, Karya can be the platform that these organizations, both private startups or even the government, can come to, to get their valuable task competed. Host: Vivek, this has been an extremely interesting conversation. Thank you for your time. Vivek: Thanks a lot, Sridhar for giving me this opportunity to both talk about the project and also do my first podcast. Host: My pleasure.

Nesta edição de da atração Sidequest, sobre coisas que não são RPG mas o tangenciam de alguma forma, trouxemos um romance de fantasia medieval vencedor do prêmio Watty Award de 2018, o Arlock: um Conto de Ellora, escrito por Thiago Pe e lançado pela editora Vicenza.

Ett skogsbad guidat av Petra Ellora Cau Wetterholm. Den här meditationen är ett utdrag från vårt avsnitt med Petra.

Petra Ellora Cau Wetterholm arbetar som legitimerad psykolog och är certifierad meditation- och mindfulness-ledare. Petra är även grundare av Shinrin-Yoku Sweden, som är den japanska formen av skogsbad. Vi pratar om hur meditation och natur hänger ihop. Petra delar med sig av sina insikter från att varit Zen-buddhist och hur hon sedan upptäckte hur märkbart naturen hjälpte henne att återhämta sig. Hon berättar om Shinrin-Yoku som handlar om att vara i en naturlig miljö och öppna alla sina sinnen utan någon agenda. Och att det togs fram i Japan som ett motmedel för att människor dog utav arbetsrelaterad stress (Karoshi). Vi pratar om att det inte finns några problem i naturen. Att forskning på skogsbad visar på två huvudeffekter: minskad stress och att immunförsvaret stärks. Om att meditation och skogsbad båda hjälper oss att avtäcka det som redan finns inom oss. Och Axel delar med sig av sin och Gustavs andliga naturupplevelse i Lofoten. Petra avslutar vårt samtal med att guida en meditation som är ett skogsbad ute i naturen.

Para algumas pessoas, isso nem existe. Mas felizmente cada vez mais os bissexuais ganham o espaço e visibilidade que merecem. No programa de hoje, compartilhamos com você diversificadas vivências bissexuais e discutimos porque tantas pessoas tem dificuldade em entender que é ok gente gostar de gente. Existem alguns conceitos de gênero problemáticos que eu, Priscila, usei, quando fiz a gravação, mas aos poucos os entrevistados os desconstroem e a minha ignorância no assunto dá origem a muitas leituras ricas. Espero que perdoem meu desconhecimento quanto a assuntos de gênero, também estou aprendendo, e achem esse podcast um aprendizado válido. Esse programa não seria possível sem o depoimento dessas pessoas sensacionais.

Early medieval India saw the rise of an empire based in the Deccan plateau: the Rashtrakutas.  Despite their significant power and influence, their story is little-known and under-appreciated.  From their most remarkable king, Amoghavarsha the author, to their architectural masterpiece at the caves of Ellora, we will remedy this shocking omission. The Kailashanatha Temple, carved from the Deccan rock, is a true wonder, and Anirudh Kanisetti, historian and host of the Echoes of India, brings its magic to life. We also talk about Indian math, Sanskrit poetry, and chicken kolhapuri, a spicy Deccan specialty. Sources: Keay, John. India: a History Lonely Planet Guide to India Mani, Chandra Mauli.

A modern woman for modern times, Delwyn Jenkins has plenty of first-hand experience with today’s fast-paced publishing industry. As a writer of erotic romance, which she usefully distinguishes from erotica, erotic fiction and porn, Delwyn has been published by Momentum Books, Ellora’s Cave and Evernight Books. As an e-book author, Delwyn has plenty of insight into digital publishing and the highs and lows of writing in the digital age. With a wicked wit and a talent for the quick comeback, Delwyn is hugely entertaining and we loved having her In the Book Cave.

His YouTube videos about Ellora caves and ancient machining technology have been aired on TV shows and documentaries. His findings are radical and show deep insight into understanding ancient texts and symbology. He recently discovered India's oldest sundial, explaining how to decode Hindu symbols step by step.In September 2016, he made his first appearance at Ancient Aliens TV Show in history channel. Even though his footage has been widely used before on many TV shows and documentaries, this was the first time he personally appeared on air. Praveen keeps his personal life secretive, never discussing it on camera. On Ancient Aliens show however, he revealed that he grew up in a strict Hindu family, which helped him to read Indian scriptures extensively. During his interview with Author Ed Grondine, Ed revealed that Praveen's hometown was Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Little is known about how he manages to travel around the world independently. Even though he replies to most of his fans, he never reveals anything about his personal life. In October 2016, Praveen revealed that he was doing a long-term expedition in India exploring ancient structures, and showed a glimpse of remote caves which have not been visited in the last few centuries. After 6 months of inactivity, he has begun posting new videos, revealing many startling secrets hidden in Indian temples and caves. He has also raised awareness about unprotected ancient temples and has asked people to come forward to help them get protected. Praveen currently has over 100,000 subscribers and nearly 30 million views on YouTube.

Ellora and her dad read “I Really Like Slop” by Mo Willems and talk about why we like it at the end.

Welcome to the Roundtable Roundup, our monthly podcast (first Thursday of the month) where we invite a guest or two to join us live to discuss the previous month's news and views from the self-publishing and indie industry.

When you're hyper-focused on results, it's easy to view PR and marketing as a purely numbers-driven game. However, the creative arts - writing, photography, video and more - play a central role in contributing to those numbers by helping companies tell their stories and reach their desired audience. On this week's Hacks and Flacks, we talk to two people who understand the art and science of visual mediums. When she's not working as a biomedical engineer for Boston's MC10, photographer Ellora Sen-Gupta can most likely be found snapping photos and contributing to creative projects as part of Boston's budding Instagram photography community, including @PortraitMeet. March Director of Video Services Brendan Reilly is also a member of that group, and in this episode, he and Ellora talk about their techniques for applying creativity to corporate visual content, tips on how to get the best out of subjects who aren't comfortable in front of the camera, and why companies can't afford to cut corners on skill or technical competency when it comes to working with photographers or videographers.

Listen to the interview here!Tell me a little about yourself and your writing.I’m an odd bird who found a home with writing paranormal. Yep. I said it. I think admitting it is really the first step to total acceptance.Tell me about the story that you've created a soundtrack/playlist for. I’ll talk a little about DEMONIC DESIRES (from Ellora’s Cave) and the soundtrack I listened to for it. DEMONIC DESIRES centers around a group of demons, right hand men to Lucifer, who broke ranks and saved lives rather than taking them. It’s the first book in the stories of the Lost Warriors redemption. The opening scene is a really dark, twisted sex one. My playlist needed to reflect this so I went with Danzig’s Underbelly of The Beast to kick it off. The story then takes a lighter note, introducing you to the characters out of their normal element. I brought in a good deal of Celtic flare for this because the heroine is a warrior from Valhalla. What is your playlist? Why did you choose these particular songs?I’ll give you a snippet of the list because there over 3500 items in it with 230 hours of play time… and this is JUST for DEMONIC DESIRES. I make a new list for every book. Danzig-Underbelly of The BeastRob Zombie- Living Dead Girl (Naked Exorcism Remix)Rob Zombie-DragulaProdigy—Smack My Bitch UpProdigy—FirestarterMarilyn Manson—The Beautiful PeopleMarilyn Manson—The Dope ShowMarilyn Manson—Man That You FearNine Inch Nails—Head Like a HoleNine Inch Nails—Terrible LieNine Inch Nails—CloserSmashing Pumpkins—Tonight, TonightQueensryche - Silent LucidityStained - It’s Been AwhileSilverchair- Wait Til TomorrowFaith No More – EpicBilly Idol-- Eyes Without A FaceStabbing Westward - Waking Up Beside You (Remix)Gregorian-- Se Eu Fosse Um Dia O Teu OlharGregorian-- Meditazione- Christus Factus EstDanzig—CantspeakMassive Attack & Mos Def-I Against IPigeonhed - Battle Flag (Lo-Fidelity Allstars Remix)Alice in Chains-- Man In The BoxRed Hot Chili Peppers-- Blood Sugar Sex MagikSantana-- Put Your Lights OnEverlast-- Babylon FeelingAFI-- The Leaving Song Pt IILive-- I AloneDisturbed-- Down With The SicknessRob Zombie -- The Lords Of SalemBlue Oyster Cult—Don’t Fear The ReaperLimp Bizkit-- Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle)Mazzy Star - Fade Into YouKatie Melua—Just like HeavenThe Cranberries—ZombieThe Cranberries—Ode to My FamilyTriniti – NocturneTriniti-- Glen Of ImaalEnya—Only TimeINXS—AfterglowINXS—Never Tear Us ApartBlack Lab—Learn to CrawlBack Lab—Keep Myself AwakeLed Zeppelin—KashmirHeart—Magic ManThree Doors Down—When I’m GoneStyx—RenegadeAndy Gibb—Shadow DancingThe Corrs-- Brid Og Ni MhailleTrapt—EchoWhen in Rome—The PromiseTwisted Sister—We’re Not Gonna Take ItJay-z & Linkin Park - Numb/EncoreAlanis Morissette – UninvitedBlack Sabbath — ParanoidBlack Sabbath — Iron ManBerlin - Take My Breath AwayDHT- Listen To Your Heart (Edmee's Unplugged Vocal Edit) What does music mean to you? To your writing?I don’t watch many movies or much in the way of TV. Music has always been a love of mine. I can still remember the day MTV came on air for the first time. I was six and it totally wiped the floor with Sesame Street. I watched faithfully from that day forward until they started on the reality shows. I had to put up a white flag then. Let the record state that I miss Martha Quinn. Oh, and MTV actually playing music. To me, music is another form of escapism. It can set the mood for you or it can fix the mood you’re in. It’s what you make of it. I love all music, from classical to the rhythmic beating of Native American drums. You name it, I like it—Rock, Classical, Dark Metal, MallCore, Pop, Country, Jazz, Rap/Hip-hop, Foreign (I’m a huge lover of the Italian music scene), Oldies. What kind of music do you like to write to?I’ll make the playlist as I write. If I know I’m entering a really dark scene, I’ll incorporate that vibe into the playlist. When I’m coming out of it, I lighten the mood. I do have one rule, if a Bee Gees song cannot be incorporated into the mix then I’m doing something wrong. Yes. I do have playlists with AC/DC and The Bee Gees sharing airtime. If this story was made into a movie, who would you want to do the soundtrack?I’d like to see Rob Zombie team up with The Cranberries (who can tell me where they are and if they’re still putting out records… I’d love to buy them). I think the collaboration would be odd but I’m betting it would work. Anything else you'd like to say about music and writing/creating?I have a lot of respect for anyone who can create music. It’s their story, put out there for the world to hear.To learn more about Mandy, visit her website.Next week, I interview author Paul Liadis, AKA The Struggling Writer.
