Amir Moosavi discusses the profound impact of the Iran-Iraq War – the longest two-state war of the 20th century – on the literature of both nations. Through his book "Dust That Never Settles: Literary Afterlives of the Iran-Iraq War," he explores in this conversation the official state-sanctioned narratives that emerged during and after the war, comparing them with the more nuanced, critical, and often experimental literary responses from writers in Iraq and Iran, including those in the diaspora. The conversation also highlights how these diverse literary works grapple with the war's legacy, from its human and environmental costs to its enduring presence in collective memory. 0:00 The Enduring Legacy of the Iran-Iraq War1:03 Introducing Amir Moosavi's Book3:39 A Historical Primer on the Iran-Iraq War7:16 Shifting Narratives: Qadisiyyat Saddam and Operation Karbala11:49 Bridging Arabic and Persian Literary Worlds15:51 Understanding State Literature and Propaganda20:11 Examples of State Literature and Narrative Shifts29:36 Post-War Writers: Challenging Official Narratives35:26 Warfront Depictions and the Quest for Truth38:31 Artistic Communities and Collective Memory40:41 The Meaning Behind "Dust That Never Settles"43:18 Ecological Damage in War Literature48:22 Misconceptions and Nuances in War Literature50:39 Diaspora Authors and Freedom of Expression Amir Moosavi is an assistant Professor in the Department of English at Rutgers University- Newark.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has been making headlines after postponing her highly anticipated Las Vegas residency due to health challenges, a move that instantly sparked concern and a wave of support from fans across the globe. According to her own statement shared on social media and widely reported on ITV News and Country Living, Dolly revealed she needed to undergo a series of unspecified medical procedures, joking that it was time for her 100,000-mile checkup—though she assured fans with her trademark wit that it was not her usual trip to the plastic surgeon. The original slate of six sold-out performances at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, which would have marked her first extended Vegas run in over three decades, was scheduled for December 2025. These shows have now been rescheduled for September 2026, with Parton making it clear tickets would be honored or refunded for those who can't make the new dates.The news of her postponement came right after she missed a major event at Dollywood, her iconic Tennessee theme park, due to a flare-up of kidney stones. WHNT News 19 and several entertainment outlets emphasized there was no specific diagnosis given beyond the need for recovery time, and Dolly herself reassured her devoted following that she is not quitting show business. She cited advice from her doctors and a personal sense that she should slow down temporarily, but with her usual optimism, she promised, "God hasn't said anything about stopping yet," highlighting her intention to keep working on her many projects from Nashville. Speculation about her future quickly appeared on social media, but Dolly dampened any rumors of retirement, insisting she has big adventures ahead—a message that trended widely on X and Instagram as fans poured in thousands of get-well messages and memes celebrating her resilience.Beyond her current health focus, Dolly continues to expand her business portfolio. Features in Forbes and IMDb have spotlighted her towering $450 million net worth and highlighted the growth of her “Doggy Parton” pet line, new Duncan Hines baking mixes, and her ever-popular Dollywood properties. In August, she received special attention from the Guinness Book of World Records with an "icon" certificate, putting her in league with Beyoncé and Sir Paul McCartney. Even during this pause from live performance, Dolly's brand and legendary catalog remain at the heart of country music, philanthropy, and entrepreneurship, her career far from finished—as she says, just resting up for the next act.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has dominated headlines this week in a flurry of news and business activity, though much of the attention has centered around her recent health scare and absence from Dollywood. On September 17, Dolly was forced to cancel her long-anticipated public appearance at Dollywood due to a kidney stone that led to an infection, a setback the star shared candidly in a heartfelt video to fans. She explained that her doctor had advised her to stay home and recover, missing the unveiling of the new Night Flight Expedition ride—one she excitedly described as Dollywood's most expensive attraction ever. Dolly was quick to reassure everyone that she's on the mend and had high hopes to get back in front of her audiences soon, adding her familiar blend of optimism and wit. According to Parade and Taste of Country, the cancellation was widely discussed on social media, where a clip of Dolly's message circulated and fans poured out their well-wishes. Her presence in spirit was palpable—no surprise given her history of unwavering fan engagement and transparency during difficult times.Beyond the immediate health update, Dolly's name has been trending with other significant mentions. Just days ago, Marathon County announced the launch of a new Imagination Library program tied to Dolly's foundation, cementing her long-standing legacy in children's literacy. This expansion comes as Dolly's total donated books to children climbs well past 100 million—a biographical milestone that is almost without parallel in celebrity philanthropy. AOL and Business Insider have been busy chronicling Dolly's staggering financial empire, recently updating estimations of her net worth at about $450 million and breaking down her business interests, from Dollywood and Splash Country to her home goods lines and “Doggy Parton” pet apparel, all of which continue to bolster her profile as one of the world's savviest entertainers and entrepreneurs.Public appearances remain limited, given her recent bereavement—Dolly's husband of six decades, Carl Dean, passed away in March. Media outlets, including Parade, have reflected on her resilience and loneliness in the wake of his loss, with family members sharing rare, never-before-seen photos that have contributed to the outpouring of support and nostalgia across Dolly's official social media channels. Notably, tribute shows and symphonic tributes in her honor are still running strong in venues from Indianapolis to the UK, emphasizing her enduring cultural significance.On the business front, Dolly's theme parks and branded lines show no signs of slowing, despite rumors of fiscal tightening in the regional entertainment market. The major headline remains her absence at Dollywood—her signature public stage—and her assurance that she'll bounce back soon. There is no credible confirmation of other rumors or speculative business moves beyond what has been released publicly. If one thing rings true from the past week, it's that Dolly Parton's impact continues to span entertainment, philanthropy, and business, unfaltering even as she recovers behind the scenes.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Book Title: The Blazing World: A New History of Revolutionary England, 1603-1689 Author: Jonathan HealeyHeadline: The Gunpowder Plot's Enduring Legacy The 1605 Gunpowder Plot, an attempt by a small group of Catholics to destroy James I and Parliament, deeply shaped English politics. It fueled anti-Catholic paranoia, associating Catholicism with tyranny, foreign powers like Spain and France, and arbitrary government. This fear of a "popish plot" became a recurrent theme for the next 80 years, influencing decisions up to James II's reign. 1653 OLIVER CROMWELL

Cristiano Ronaldo BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Cristiano Ronaldo has launched into September 2025 making headlines yet again both on and off the pitch. At forty years old, Ronaldo's quest for an unprecedented sixth World Cup appearance couldn't have started better—he scored twice in Portugal's resounding five-nil away victory over Armenia in their first 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier. With those two goals, he extended his world record as the top men's international scorer to 140, and one of them—a thunderbolt from nearly 25 yards—sent social media buzzing with highlights and praise. The Associated Press and ESPN both note that his enduring motivation and drive is setting benchmarks rarely matched in the sport, with football commentators emphasizing the significance of this campaign likely being Ronaldo's last shot at the one major trophy that still eludes him, as Lionel Messi famously lifted the World Cup in 2022.His performance in Armenia received the usual avalanche of online support. Ronaldo shared jubilant photos and a three-word victorious message on Instagram and X, triggering global fan reactions and a notable comment from former Brazilian midfielder Jose Neto, who declared Ronaldo the greatest of all time. Portuguese manager Roberto Martinez heaped praise for Ronaldo's leadership and the team's “exemplary attitude,” hailing the start as nearly perfect. Behind the scenes, Ronaldo also paid a subtle tribute to his late friend Diogo Jota following one of his goals, a gesture that resonated widely with fans online.Away from football, Ronaldo continues to expand his business and media profile. Earlier in the week, he starred in a high-profile tourism campaign for “Saudi, Welcome to Arabia,” featured front and center in a sweeping film designed to highlight Saudi Arabia's expanding global ambitions. The campaign launched across Asia and Europe, with Ronaldo taking viewers through a montage of high-stakes sports and cultural scenes in the kingdom. This multimedia rollout underscores both his brand power and ongoing integration into Saudi sporting and lifestyle ventures.Not all the attention was strictly positive. A viral moment surfaced when Ronaldo appeared to shove a fan who got too close in Yerevan, caught on phone cameras and widely circulated, sparking debate online but quickly overshadowed by his record-breaking performance. Adding to the intrigue, Ronaldo dropped a cryptic social post about his future, fueling speculation but offering no confirmed news regarding any major change in plans—just typical Ronaldo mystique.As the world watches his every move, the major sports outlets agree: Cristiano's relentless pursuit of records at 40 keeps him at the heart of global football conversation, while his business and brand ventures just keep growing. Next up is Portugal's crucial qualifier against Hungary, where the story continues—could another record await?Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Were the Martian canals real? For decades, some of the world's most respected astronomers and newspapers answered with a resounding YES. But how did a simple misunderstanding spiral into a global belief in an advanced, dying civilization on the Red Planet? This episode unwraps the incredible story of the turn-of-the-century Martian craze, a period when fact and fiction blurred, and humanity collectively looked to the stars, convinced someone was looking back. We explore how this mania began, who its biggest champions were, and how the idea of intelligent Martians shaped science and culture forever.This deep dive into the history of our obsession with Mars is guided by acclaimed author David Baron, whose book "The Martians: The True Story of an Alien Craze That Captured Turn-of-the-Century America" chronicles this fascinating era. We begin with the story's surprising European origins, specifically with Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli and his 1877 observations of "canali" on the Martian surface. A critical mistranslation of Giovanni Schiaparelli canali (Italian for "channels") into "canals" in English ignited the public imagination with the possibility of artificial structures. This idea was popularized by French astronomer and author Camille Flammarion, but it was an American who would become the theory's most fervent and influential advocate: Percival Lowell.Born into a wealthy Boston family, Percival Lowell dedicated his fortune and his life to proving the existence of an intelligent Martian race. We detail the astonishingly complex Percival Lowell Mars theory, which proposed that Mars was an old, drying planet and its inhabitants had built a planet-wide irrigation system—the Martian canals—to channel water from the polar ice caps to their desert cities. To prove it, Lowell founded the iconic Lowell Observatory in Arizona and even funded a massive expedition to Chile to capture the first-ever photographs of the canals, which he presented as undeniable proof. This led to a major rift in the scientific community, dividing astronomers into "canalists" and "anti-canalists."The belief in Martians wasn't just confined to scientific circles; it exploded into a full-blown cultural phenomenon. We discuss the immense impact of H.G. Wells War of the Worlds, a "scientific romance" that terrified and thrilled readers. Baron reveals how American newspapers, in a bout of Yellow Press sensationalism, pirated and serialized the story, localizing the invasion to New York and Boston and presenting it almost as a news report—a tactic Orson Welles would later famously use for his 1938 radio broadcast. The fervor grew so intense that in 1924, the U.S. military was convinced to enforce national radio silence to listen for signals from the Red Planet. So, what was the final nail in the coffin for the Martian canals? Baron explains how astronomer Eugène Michel Antoniadi's crystal-clear observations in 1909 and, ultimately, NASA's Mariner 4 spacecraft flyby in the 1960s, finally disproved the theory, revealing a cratered, lifeless landscape where canals were once drawn. This entire episode serves as a powerful look into the turn-of-the-century Martian craze and how it left an indelible mark on science fiction, inspiring figures like Robert H. Goddard and Carl Sagan and shaping our dreams of outer space to this day.About Our Guest:David Baron is an author and science journalist who specializes in telling gripping historical tales about the history of astronomy. He is the author of the new book, "The Martians: The True Story of an Alien Craze That Captured Turn-of-the-Century America," as well as the award-winning "American Eclipse," which is being adapted into a Broadway musical.Timestamps:(00:00) Introduction: The Martian Saga(03:01) The 1906 New York Times Headline: "There is Life on Mars"(04:47) European Origins: Schiaparelli, Flammarion, and the "Canali" Mistranslation(09:09) Percival Lowell: The American Champion of the Martian Cause(14:52) The Great Debate: Canalists vs. Anti-Canalists(19:26) The Hunt for Proof: Lowell's Astrophotography and The Chilean Expedition(23:26) Percival Lowell's Grand Theory of Martian Civilization(26:54) H.G.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has been making headlines once again, and even at 79, her influence feels as vibrant and omnipresent as ever. The biggest recent story is her highly anticipated return to Las Vegas, with a six-show residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in December 2025, marking her first extended Vegas run in over three decades. According to AOL, Dolly expressed palpable excitement, promising a hit-laden spectacle and offering up special VIP experiences for superfans, including photo ops and exclusive merchandise. She confirmed the residency through both press releases and a characteristically sparkly Instagram post, sending her signature rhinestone-laced message right to followers' feeds.In the arena of live performance, Dolly remains unstoppable. On July 30, Right Angle Entertainment and Paul T. Couch announced the national tour of Dolly Parton's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol will kick off November 15 in Owensboro, Kentucky before playing more than 20 cities. Featuring new songs and her distinct Appalachian aesthetic, the musical reimagines Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge as a Depression-era mining magnate in Tennessee—an idea that could further cement Parton's role as an ambassador for Smoky Mountain culture. Dolly herself chimed in, saying she “poured her heart into the music” and hopes families across America will feel the love, laughter, and mountain magic packed into every scene, as reported by the RiverPark Center.Dolly's presence on social media—a combination of lavish portraits and uplifting platitudes—has created a strangely emotional undercurrent among fans. On July 28, Parade and HELLO! Magazine note, Dolly's team posted a glamour shot with an inspirational caption, but fans, still reeling from the March loss of her husband Carl Dean, panicked in the comments, fearing the worst. The last few months have rendered every new Parton post a moment of both relief and trepidation.Touching tributes also remain at the forefront. Just days ago, Dolly posted a poignant message on Instagram thanking fans for their heartfelt condolences after Carl Dean's death, described lovingly as “the star of my life story.” The ballad she released in his memory—If You Hadn't Been There—offered a rare, vulnerable glimpse into her personal grief and creative pause. She's acknowledged publicly that her songwriting has slowed, explaining on the Khloé in Wonderland podcast that the emotional toll has left her “just putting it all on hold,” but she hopes to return to it when she's able.Finally, nostalgia continues to fuel her connection with fans. A throwback post of “Coat of Many Colors” went viral, sparking a fresh wave of emotion for this song's core message: resilience, humility, and pride in one's roots. From glittering strip lights in Vegas to heartfelt tributes and every rhinestone in between, Dolly persists in making news—proving that, even through loss, her legacy's only growing.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

The Greater Portland Crab Caper-The Crabbe Family: Eastern Prom's Enduring Legacy & The Fisher Family: Western Prom's Steadfast Guardians (Updated)Today, we're deepening the lore around the Crabbe and Fisher families, intertwining their distinct identities with the historical fabric of Portland, particularly through the lens of the Munjoy Hill and Bramhall Reservoirs and their ultimate demise. This will lay the groundwork for the central conflict, "The Crab Caper."Family Name & Symbolism: "The Crab Caper"The name "Crabbe" perfectly embodies their essence. The crab, with its hard shell and sideways movement, symbolizes their tenacity, their guarded nature, and perhaps an ethical ambiguity. Their deep connection to the marine world is undeniable, but it's a connection born of exploitation rather than stewardship.Location: The Eastern Promenade, Munjoy HillTheir placement on Munjoy Hill, the "other side" of the city from the Fishers, immediately establishes a geographical and ideological divide. The Eastern Prom's history of hardworking families, fishermen, and shipbuilders provides a rugged, insular backdrop, contrasting sharply with the Western Prom's perceived grandeur. This is where the Crabbes forged their empire through sheer will and cunning.Marine Industry Focus:Initial Wealth: Modern Business: Today, their legacy manifests in a highly efficient, perhaps legally dubious, commercial fishing conglomerate or a marine logistics company. Their shadowy ties to modern shipping lanes and even offshore wind development hint at how their less-than-ethical practices continue to give them an advantage in contemporary ventures. They are the silent operators, the ones who know how to bend rules and exploit loopholes.Personality & Traits (Antagonists):Ruthless & Ambitious: Their primary drivers are profit and power. They are fiercely territorial, protecting their family name and their dominion over the Eastern Prom with an iron fist.Secretive: Like the hidden depths of the Munjoy Hill Reservoir, the Crabbe family harbors deep, unspoken secrets. These secrets are intrinsically tied to their past, perhaps involving illicit gains from the 1893 reservoir burst, or shady deals made during times of public vulnerability. This secrecy is a key element of their enduring power.Old Money, but "Newer" Grit: Potential Link to Munjoy Hill Reservoir & Hidden Network:The Munjoy Hill Reservoir, built in the 1880s, tragically burst in 1893. An ancestor of the Crabbes could have been deeply involved in the subsequent repairs or even benefited from the disaster itself, perhaps through illicit profits or opportunistic land acquisition. This established their connection to the Eastern Prom's infrastructure.Family Name & Symbolism:The name "Fisher" immediately evokes tradition, sustainability, and an ethical approach to the ocean. It represents integrity, patience, and a deep, respectful connection to the sea, contrasting sharply with the Crabbes' exploitative nature. They are the guardians of Portland's maritime soul.Location: The Western PromenadeTheir residence on the Western Promenade positions them among Portland's older, more established families. Their connections trace back to the city's early mercantile and shipping elite, with grand, historic houses overlooking the harbor, symbolizing their long-standing, respected presence.#TheFishers,#WesternPromHeroes,#PortlandProtagonists,#MaritimeHeritage,#EthicalSeafood,#GrandpaBillsGoodGuys#GuardiansOfTheBay,#FisherMansionSecrets,#UncoveringPortland,#SubterraneanQuest,#BramhallUnveiled,The Crabbe Family: Eastern Prom's Enduring LegacyThe Fisher Family: Western Prom's Steadfast GuardiansThe Rivalry: A Tale of Two Sides of PortlandTitles & Hashtags for the Families & Rivalry

In this episode, Ishreen delves into the leadership lessons drawn from the historical figure Na'ila bint al-Furafisa, exploring her relevance to today's chief people officers, HR directors, and inclusion leaders. Ishreen highlights three key areas of leadership: crisis management, strategic communication, and maintaining integrity. By examining Naila's courageous actions during a time of crisis, her powerful use of symbolic communication, and her unwavering commitment to her values, Ishreen offers actionable insights for modern leaders facing challenges in diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) initiatives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Leaders should take decisive action during challenging times, demonstrating courage and commitment to their core values, even when faced with significant pressures or threats to inclusion initiatives. Crafting narratives that resonate emotionally with stakeholders is crucial. It's not enough to present data; leaders must connect on a deeper level to inspire action and support for inclusion efforts. Maintaining integrity is essential, especially when faced with compromises that could dilute core values. Leaders should stand firm in their principles, even when it is difficult. Investing in mentorship opportunities for underrepresented voices is vital for fostering growth and ensuring diverse perspectives are included in leadership. Documenting the impact of inclusion initiatives and creating a sense of distributed ownership helps embed belonging into the organisation, making it resilient to changes in leadership or budget constraints. BEST MOMENTS "The legacy of change needs to be driven by you. So that's why we've created a step change for UK industry to help business leaders make a real difference." "It's that idea of taking decisive action when things get tough. It's about actually doing something to protect them, even when it's hard." "Na'ila's example suggests that sometimes holding firm to your principles, even when it's hard, is the most powerful thing you can do." "It's not just about presenting data. It's about framing a narrative that really connects with people." "What aspects of Na'ila's story resonate most deeply with your own leadership journey? And how can you apply these principles to your work?"

AI has gotten a lot better, and I've been open about using it to help me transcribe and organize otherwise impenetrable interviews. Every week I feed it the podcast and ask it to write a story and every week the machine fails to make heads or tails of what we're getting at with this show. I'm kinda proud of that. This week, I told it to ignore Todd and just write a story based on me. Then I hit enter without uploading the transcript. (I'll do Todd next week).

In this special episode, we ignite a fiery reflection on the indelible legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.—a fearless American Baptist minister, activist, and political visionary who reshaped the moral fabric of our nation. From 1955 to his untimely assassination in 1968, Dr. King stood on the front lines of justice, wielding nonviolent resistance as his weapon against the brutality of Jim Crow laws and systemic oppression.Dr. King's “I Have a Dream” speech shook the very foundation of inequality, inspiring millions to believe in a future of hope and unity. But his teachings went beyond grand stages—they cut to the core of human dignity and the fight for equality. In this episode, we reflect on his timeless words and dig into an unforgettable moment: Coach Nick Saban's poignant reference to Dr. King's “Sweeper Speech,” a powerful reminder that greatness is found in how we approach every task, no matter how small.This episode confronts the harsh reality of hatred that still plagues our world today. It's a raw and urgent call to action—a reminder that love, respect, and unity start in our homes and in our hearts. Hatred is not born; it is taught. And we hold the responsibility to unteach it.Join us as we explore the lessons of Dr. King—not just as history, but as a rallying cry to keep pushing forward. The work isn't finished. His dream lives on, and it's up to all of us to keep the fire burning.https://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

VP of Marketing Steven Clarke Joins QSR editorial director Danny Klein to discuss the 35th anniversary of Golden Krust, a brand that remains to this day a family-run operation that started from a single location in the Bronx, New York, before expanding nationwide. After immigrating to New York from Jamaica in the 1980s, Lowell F. Hawthorne and his 10 siblings founded Golden Krust in 1989. Clarke is carrying on that legacy, looking ahead to growth, and balancing modernizing the brand while also paying tribute to what's made it such an icon since day one.

Curt Meine is a Senior Fellow at the Aldo Leopold Foundation and one of the world's foremost experts on the life, work, and legacy of conservation icon Aldo Leopold. Curt is the author of the biography “Aldo Leopold: His Life and Work,” and he also works as a conservation biologist, a professor, a senior fellow with the Center for Humans and Nature, and much more. - Since the very beginning of Mountain & Prairie, Aldo Leopold has been one of the most referenced, admired, and influential conservation thinkers whose name and ideas have been referenced over and over on the podcast. Whether I'm talking to people in agriculture or entertainment, writing or athletics, history or politics, there always seems to be a thread of thinking that connects many Mountain and Prairie guests to the Land Ethic of Aldo Leopold. - So, I was long overdue in devoting an episode exclusively to Leopold, and I was thrilled to have the opportunity to chat with Curt, one of our most admired and trusted Leopold scholars. Whether you are brand new to the work of Leopold or you've read A Sand County Almanac a hundred times, I think you'll learn a lot from this episode. Curt has a real gift for discussing the details of Leopold's life in an amazingly engaging way, while also helping us to understand Leopold's legacy in the context of the broad history of North American conservation. - We start the conversation with an overview of Leopold's early years and upbringing, and his eventual enrollment in the Yale School of Forestry. We discuss Leopold's formative years in the American Southwest, how his outside-the-box ideas about wildlife sometimes clashed with the status quo, and his eventual move back to Wisconsin. We talk a lot about Leopold's personality and how it compares to other conservation icons, how his work was received both in his lifetime and after his death, his surprising challenges finding a publisher for A Sand County Almanac, and that book's long-lasting influence. We also discuss criticisms of Leopold's work, some of his ideas that may not hold up as well today as they did in their time, and Leopold's abundant curiosity and willingness to change his mind. We also discuss books, the very important work of the Aldo Leopold Foundation, and much more. - Be sure to check out the episode notes for a full list of topics and links to everything. And also, I want to thank my friend, the great conservationist and all-around amazing human Doug Duren for so generously introducing me to the team at The Aldo Leopold Foundation and being such a steadfast champion of Leoplod's legacy.
