Podcasts about for martha

In this second (and final) installment of our two-part coverage of "Adore," we go through A DOOR and ask the questions: Do Dusty and Pistol Pete live in the same world as "Ramona"?! Is "Shame" a secret sock hop song that would make a great pop-punk cover?! And did "Blank Page" throw a seed into the future, later blossoming as "Birch Grove"?! We also discuss how Cruel Intentions was the Moody Teen's American Pie, how "prettily" the epic "For Martha" unfolds, and an empowered, "owning-it" view of "Annie-Dog." We then delve into what WandaVision and Billy have in common and, believe it or not, The Cure comes up again. All that plus our quick thoughts on the Japanese Bonus track (and "Ava Adore" b-side) "Once In A While" and the infamous, omitted, Rick Rubin-produced track, "Let Me Give The World To You." Be a sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shame if you missed this one, Sheila! Follow us on the socials!

Dr. Martha Muñoz is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Yale University. Martha is an evolutionary biologist who is working to better understand how and why evolution proceeds unevenly across the tree of life. Some features and branches or organisms are evolving really quickly, while others remain inert or nearly inert for millions of years. Her research is uncovering the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. For Martha, nature is a wonderful source of peace and inspiration for her research. When she’s not working, she enjoys exploring the outdoors, hiking, seeing amazing views, and observing wildlife. She also spends her free time reading, going to museums, and visiting her family in New York City. She received her B.A. in biology from Boston University. Afterwards, Martha worked as a Fulbright Research Scholar at the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, Spain. She was awarded her Ph.D. in Organismic & Evolutionary Biology from Harvard University. Next, Martha conducted postdoctoral research in the Research School of Biology at The Australian National University and subsequently the Department of Biology at Duke University. Prior to accepting her current position at Yale University, Martha served on the faculty in the Department of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech. Martha has received numerous awards and honors, including the Boston University Department of Biology’s Distinguished Alumni ‘Rising Star’ Award, and a Young Investigator Award from the American Society of Naturalists. She was also named a ‘Scientist to Watch’ by The Scientist Magazine in 2019. In our interview, Martha will tell us more about her life and science.

On his way to Jerusalem, Jesus often encountered people who simply did not understand what he or the kingdom was all about. In chapter 10, we read about two such individuals. One is a lawyer (an expert in the law of Moses). The other is a woman named Martha. Even though their life situations are very different, both are dealing with obstacles that are keeping them from really embracing the message of Jesus. The lawyer is looking for ways to excuse his lack of compassion for certain groups of people. Martha is trying to find her identity in her performance.The remedy that Jesus offers to each is different. For the lawyer, he tells a parable that removes the boundaries the lawyer has placed on his compassion and challenges him to “go and do” likewise. For Martha, it’s just the opposite. Jesus invites her to “stop doing and listen.” If you were to ask Jesus which example applies to you (the lawyer or Martha) his answer would probably be “Yes.” Sometimes, we need to be challenged to “go and do,” and sometimes we need to be challenged to simply “stop doing and listen” to the words of Jesus.Support the show (http://www.clarksburgchurch.com)

Always thinking of herself the "default girl", Martha Carrigan considers her life as one that has followed the straight and narrow - the expected route. But, to us - and, likely to those that hear her story - Martha's journey is far from ordinary. She helped start a high school. She is the CEO of career-building platform, Big Shoes Network. She has been hit by a car (multiple times...). Safe to say...far from average. Yet, like many of us, Martha shares a passion for people, and has allowed that defined purpose to guide her career. She never thought she'd be an entrepreneur, but her desire to help others has manifested itself in a thriving company that impacts thousands in the Midwest. For Martha, the analogy of spackling is very apropos when crafting a theme to represent her life - using her unique skills to fill gaps, assisting in the advancement of causes and people she believes in. This is her story. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/helium-books/support

Martha Sharkey is the Founder and CEO of TODAY is a Good Day. Their mission is to provide personal, spiritual, and financial support to families of premature babies during their time in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).For Martha and her husband, Paul, this is a very personal mission. In July 2010, they learned that their journey to starting a family had begun. Shortly thereafter, they learned they were expecting twins! Unfortunately, their journey took a dark turn when Martha delivered Mary Gladys and Claire Josephine on November 14th, 2010, a full 16 weeks premature. Unfortunately, Mary Gladys passed away on November 28th, at just 14 days old. However, Claire Josephine has survived and will be celebrating her 9th birthday this year! (On a side-note, our founder, Ryan Martin had the privilege of meeting Claire Josephine at another podcast interview and she is a wonderful little girl) On their journey, Martha and Paul learned that while the neonatologists and other medical staff are amazing and knowledgeable, they need to take a clinical and therefore, somewhat removed approach. They realized that NICU parents need an extra layer of emotional support and this led to TODAY is a Good Day.

As the holiday season is fast approaching anyone who experiencing a breakup, separation or a divorce are possibly dreading this time of the year. Martha offers some practical tips and ideas to get you through not only the holiday season but also any other time of the year that can bring an uprising of emotions. This advice will help you to not only handle your reactions but help in your recovery. Martha’s own marriage ended at the beginning of the holiday season. The hardest part of the breakup was that her ex-husband was not moving out of their apartment for some time. They had decided they would be civil and kind to each other and try and do Christmas as a coupe. This was the worst Christmas, as they were trying to work through the sadness and heartbreak, when this time of the year was supposed to be full of happiness, family and joy. For a couple of Christmas after that Martha stayed in her apartment, as this time bought back all the feelings of pain of the ending of the marriage. Finding a good support system in the form of a therapist helped Martha. It was draining trying to project this image of the perfect wife, the perfect marriage. When she finally was honest with her self and became vulnerable and started telling friends, co-workers and family and not bottling all her emotions up inside of her she began the healing process. Martha started to do things that she felt she couldn’t do when she was in the marriage, She travel to the places she wanted go to and started some of her own traditions. It took a few Christmas to get into the swing of things and the number one thing she had to do was to learn how to manage her expectations at this time of the year. So often when relationships end and it comes to the holidays you can be down on yourself, saying things like why can’t I be happy, why can’t I have this togetherness, why can’t I have the perfect holiday. But if you take a step back and realise that maybe things are going to be a bit more subdued for a while and that’s ok. It’s a matter of having things that are simple and things that you love, if you expect that things are going to be small and simple, then your not going to be disappointed. Martha believes you also have to be careful of your selective memories. Often at this time of the year you can cherry pick all the good and amazing things that happened when you were with your partner during the holiday season. You forget the rest of the story, some of the things that weren’t that good. So often you like to paint the picture that when you were with your partner everything was great and it probably wasn’t, so you have to be honest with yourself and don’t compare yourself and what is happening now with past experiences. During this holiday season put yourself first for a change, do what you want, forget the expectations and traditions that have previously been part of your life. Now is the time to create your own traditions and do what you like and take care of yourself. This is an opportunity to change your outlook into more of a positive one. Instead of seeing this holiday season as a sad and traumatic time you have now been given this gift for you find out what you want to do and how you want to celebrate it.  When you are in a relationship you tend to do things as a unit, what is good for the unit, what’s good for your partner, what’s good for the couple. But you have to be careful that you don’t loose yourself and identify when you are in a relationship. When you get out of a relationship you often don’t remember how to putt your self first and find what interests you. Self-care is so important to the recovery process and doing these things that make you happy don’t have to be expensive or elaborate.  In life we have to have a balance with everything and the holidays are no different. If you find that the holidays are triggering things for you and the holidays are making it difficult for you to function and you feel that you are getting stuck. Martha encourages you to work with a therapist or join a divorce support group or single support group, that you can lean on and help you through this difficult process after your breakup. There can be many days that will trigger your memories such as your wedding day. Martha offered a way to get through this particular day by thinking of something that happened during that day that you liked a good memory and incorporate that into that day each year. For Martha the good memory of her wedding day was the Greek restaurant that they went to and each year on her anniversary Martha either cooks herself an amazing Greek meal or goes out to a Greek restaurant. So now her anniversary is no longer a day where she mourns the ending of her marriage but a day where she gets to eat amazing Greek food.

Jon and Jason discuss some major songs in the Billy Corgan catalogue this week, including “For Martha” (a heartfelt song about his mother’s passing), “For Your Love” (some would say his best unreleased song), and “Frail and Bedazzled” (a fan favorite from their b-sides album, Pisces Iscariot). They also try to figure out what exactly’s going on in the Zeitgeist track, “For God and Country.”

Martha Ashwell worked as a childcare officer, administrator and support tutor in university education and a counselor.  She is also a member of the long-established writer's group, Manchester Irish Writers.   Her memoir, Celia's Secret: A Journey towards Reconciliation, helped her to analyze and evaluate her life experiences to work through a process of reconciliation.  Broken relationships.   Her story shares the impact family secrets can have on your life.   Are you struggling with the dynamics of a family secret or with broken relationships?   Never give up hope of reconciliation.    If you are determined to resolve a broken relationship, it is possible to move through a process of reconciliation and have the satisfaction of knowing that you have done everything that is humanly possible to heal the relationship. The process involves: reflecting, analyzing, understanding and forgiving. For Martha, as a Christian, it also involves God’s loving hand in the process. We can have a profound love for one another despite great pain and loss.   Listen to her stimulating interview about a subject many may not want to discuss but it is necessary 

This week on "A Way with Words": Creative communication in a noisy world! Writing a clever 140-character tweet isn't easy. But you know what's even more impressive? Working all 26 letters of the alphabet into just one sentence! The term for that type of sentence is pangram. Naturally, there's a whole Twitter feed featuring accidental pangrams from all over. And: More people are giving themselves coffee names to avoid confusion when ordering that cup to go. After all, what barista is going to misspell Elvis? And what's the difference between a purse, a handbag, and a pocketbook? Martha and Grant root around for an answer. Plus: center vs. centre, capital vs. lowercase letters, the origin of sommelier, and an alternative to showering when travelling in an RV.FULL DETAILSThe disgruntled consumer who tweeted My "prize" in my Cracker Jack box...whoever does quality control needs to get fired accidentally did something miraculous. This message includes all 26 letters of the alphabet, making it a pangram. The twitter feed @PangramTweets shares random pangrams from around the internet.A wine expert with a bachelor's degree in linguistics and a minor in French wonders about the origin of the term sommelier. It shares a root with sumpter, meaning "pack animal." Sommelier used to refer generally to the person in charge of the provisions carried by a pack animal, and later came to specify the person who oversees the provisions in a wine cellar."The object we call a book is not the real book, but its potential, like a musical score or seed," writes Rebecca Solnit in The Faraway Nearby. As Solnit observes, it's true that a book is just an inert object on a shelf that takes on a new life when opened: "A book is a heart that only beats in the chest of another."Many people pronounce the word groceries as if it were spelled grosheries.

The answer may depend less on your location and more on your age.There's no difference in meaning between center and centre, but there is an interesting story behind the change in spelling.
