When the Word Takes Root: Lessons from St. John Chrysostom Today's Homily occurs on the Feast of St. John Chrysostom . . . . . . and connects the Gospel parable of the Sower with the saint's life and mission. The parable illustrates that the Word of God is abundantly sown, yet its fruitfulness depends on the disposition of the hearer . . . whether hardened, shallow, distracted, or open and rich soil. St. John Chrysostom is presented as an example of “good soil”: rooted deeply in prayer, scripture, and surrender before bearing abundant fruit through eloquent preaching, pastoral reform, and courageous witness. His fearless proclamation, even against imperial power and corrupt clergy, led to exile and suffering, yet his words continued to strengthen the Church. Remembered as the “Golden Mouth,” his lasting fruitfulness demonstrates that true preaching flows from a heart firmly rooted in Christ. The Homily concludes by reminding the faithful that Christ, the Divine Sower, continues to sow himself in the Eucharist, and each believer is called to cultivate soil that allows his Word to take deep root and bear lasting fruit.

Wikipedia isn't just an online encyclopedia—it's the backbone of the internet. From Google search results to AI training models, it shapes the information billions of people see every single day.

We discuss how powerful figures can manipulate narratives, how controversial topics from grooming gangs to Kyle Rittenhouse get rewritten, why certain murders are buried, and how anyone who challenges the system—whether it's Charlie Kirk, Elon Musk, or even independent journalists—gets targeted. Ashley reveals how Wikipedia editors attack reputations, censor stories that don't fit the narrative, and even transform encyclopedic entries into propaganda tools. We dig into the billion-dollar industry of paid Wikipedia editing, the war against outlets like the Daily Mail, and the frightening way this information monopoly is now feeding artificial intelligence systems that will shape the future.

Herzlich willkommen zu Ihrem morgendlichen Newsletter! Drei sehr unterschiedliche Themen, die doch eines gemeinsam haben: Sie zeigen, wie Ideen und Werkzeuge unsere Gesellschaft prägen – und gefährden können. Im ersten Beitrag erfahren Sie, wie der Mord an Charlie Kirk Diskussionen über Radikalisierung an US-Unis und Erinnerungen an die Kulturrevolution in China auslöst. Unser zweiter Artikel beleuchtet, warum Wikipedia trotz ideologischer Verzerrungen weiterhin das meistgenutzte Nachschlagewerk bleibt. Und schließlich geht es im dritten Beitrag um das Waschbrett – vom vergessenen Alltagshelfer zur Metapher für Neugier und Verantwortung.

Tyska orden är en av de klassiska kristna riddarordnar som bildades under korstågen till Mellanöstern. Trots detta är det främst ordens korståg och erövringar i Baltikum – i områden som idag utgör Estland och Lettland – som gjort den mest känd.Tyska orden utgjorde i flera hundra år en mäktig kraft i regionen och bidrog till att ge Baltikum en västeuropeisk prägel. Riddarna förde långa och blodiga krig, bland annat vid Peipussjön år 1242 och i det berömda slaget vid Tannenberg år 1410.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden diskuterar Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved Tyska ordens historia. Orden blev framför allt betydelsefull som ett skydd mot öster i dåtidens Baltikum. Dess framväxt och etablering var en del av de medeltida korstågen i norra Europa. Kopplingarna till det svenska rikets expansion österut, i det som idag är Finland, är tydliga.Tyska orden kom också länge att spela en central roll inom Hansan. Flera viktiga handelsstäder i de östra delarna av Östersjön – även på Gotland – kontrollerades och skyddades av orden.När ordensstaten till slut kollapsade under 1500-talet skapades ett maktvakuum. Detta utnyttjades bland annat av det svenska riket, som inledde sin östliga expansion i dåtidens Livland, motsvarande dagens Estland. Den svenska stormaktstiden inleddes på allvar med övertagandet av Reval.Bild: Slaget vid Tannenberg var en avgörande strid mellan Tyska orden och en allians av polska och litauiska styrkor. Det markerade början på slutet för Tyska ordens dominans i Östeuropa. Slaget vid Tannenberg den 15 juli 1410, ur Berner Chronik av Diebold Schilling den äldre, ca 1483. Källa: Diebold Schilling d.

We'll be visiting 8 lost cities over the next couple of weeks! This week we'll journey to an ancient city of mythic proportions that most thought to be fictional until it was actually discovered in the mid 1800s: Troy of Homer's Iliad fame. Next we'll make our way to southern Pakistan to explore the ruins of the completely unknown and yet stunningly advanced city of Mohenjo Daro. Then we'll hop the pond to the jungles of Guatemala to get lost in the sprawling Maya capital city of El Mirador. And finally, we'll revisit Pompeii, an ancient Roman time capsule completely preserved in volcanic ash. Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: The British Museum "The search for the lost city of Troy"BBC "Did the Trojan War actually happen?BBC "Pakistan's lost city of 40,000 people"National Geographic "Recovering the lost city of Mohenjo Daro"Smithsonian Magazine "El Mirador, the Lost City of the Maya"Wikipedia "El Mirador"History Fix Episode 18 "Pompeii"Shoot me a message!

Avgusta smo bili priča raciji na antifašističnem taboru na Peršmanovi domačiji, ki velja za simbol narodnoosvobodilnega boja na avstrijskem Koroškem. To seveda ni edini primer pritiska na slovensko manjšino, a je dejanje, ki spominja na temne čase, v katerih so bili koroški Slovenci tarče raznarodovalnih teženj. Slovenska manjšina na avstrijskem Koroškem ima namreč dolgo zgodovino boja za lastni obstoj, ki sega najmanj do začetka 19. stoletja, ko je na tem območju živelo več kot 130 tisoč Slovencev. Večinska kultura v deželi Koroški je bila nemška, pripadniki nemške etnične skupnosti pa so manjšino razumeli kot nevarnost, kar je prispevalo k porastu sovražnosti. Položaj slovenske manjšine na avstrijskem Koroškem so nam predstavili dr. Božo Repe z Oddelka za zgodovino na Filozofski fakulteti Univerze v Ljubljani, dr. Teodor Domej, slovenski zgodovinar na avstrijskem Koroškem, in dr. Marjan Linasi, muzejski svetnik v Koroškem pokrajinskem muzeju. Zaradi teh pritiskov in ekonomske ter politične nemoči so se koroški Slovenci znašli v zelo kritičnem položaju. Dogodki, kot so na primer koroški plebiscit, priključitev Avstrije k Nemčiji in porast nacizma, so skupnost močno prizadeli. Tudi sistem, ki ni spoštoval pravic manjšin ali je celo aktivno spodbujal asimilacijo slovenskega prebivalstva, je prispeval k hudemu krčenju skupnosti. Kompleksno dogajanje so nam pomagali bolje razumeti gosti tokratnih Sledi časa: dr. Božo Repe z Oddelka za zgodovino na Filozofski fakulteti v Ljubljani, dr.

När Augustus grep makten under den utdragna maktkampen i spåren av mordet Julius Caesars genomlevde Rom en djup identitetskris. Republiken hade kollapsat, och ett nytt imperium växte fram – styrt av en man som vägrade titulera sig kung, men ändå utövade envälde i praktiken. För att befästa sin ställning och skapa den långvariga freden – Pax Romana – insåg Augustus att han behövde kontrollera mer än armén och senaten; han måste också forma romarnas värderingar, livsstil och kultur. Men han lyckades inte kontrollera sin egen dotter Julia.I det sjätte och avslutande avsnittet i Historia Nu:s sexdelade serie om Romarriket samtalar Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Ett av de tydligaste uttrycken för detta var Augustus försök att kontrollera det privata livet – särskilt äktenskap, sexualitet och kvinnlig dygd. Genom lagar som Lex Iulia de maritandis ordinibus (18 f.Kr.) och Lex Iulia de adulteriis coercendis (17 f.Kr.) ville Augustus återupprätta så kallade romerska dygder. Gifta medborgare – särskilt från överklassen – förväntades föda fler barn och leva moraliskt. Ogifta kunde drabbas av ekonomiska straff, och äktenskapsbrott blev ett offentligt brott. Kvinnor hamnade i fokus för regleringen: lojalitet, trohet och moderskap framhölls som ideal. Ironiskt nog drabbades hans egen dotter Julia – landsförvisad år 2 f.Kr. för påstått omoraliskt leverne – vilket innebar ett officiellt bakslag för hans moralism.Samtidigt kultiverade han en ny kulturell identitet genom att skydda och uppmuntra den latinska poesin – det som kom att kallas "det gyllene århundradet". Poeter som Horatius, Vergilius och, inledningsvis, Ovidius var nära kopplade till hans hov. Aeneiden av Vergilius blev ett epokgörande nationalepos som förenade myt, historia och Augustusrötter och kopplade honom till guden Venus genom Aeneas släktlinje. Ovidius, vars verk som Metamorfoser och Ars Amatoria klantades med kärlek och förförelse, förvisades till Svarta havets kust år 8 e.Kr. – i ett tydligt tecken på kulturens spänning under Augustus regim.En av hans mest konkreta kvarlevor är byggnadsverk. Augustus återuppbyggde gamla tempel, lät uppföra nya offentliga byggnader och förskönade stadens infrastruktur – allt vitalt för att skapa ett värdigt Rom. I Res Gestae Divi Augusti sammanfattar han sin insats: “Jag tog över en stad av tegel och lämnade en av marmor.” Monument som Ara Pacis och Mars Ultors tempel på Forum Augustum manifesterade hans roll som fredsstiftare och Caesars arvtagare – och fyllde stadsrummet med arkitektonisk symbolik, arbetstillfällen och belöningar för lojalitet. Det nya Rom – mjukgatad i marmor – blev ett monument över hans makt.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

In the 1920s, a Russian biologist studying onion roots made a surprising discovery: underground, down in the darkness, it seemed like the cells inside the onion roots were making their own … light. The “onion root experiment” went on to become something of a cult classic in science, and eventually the biologically-made light was dubbed “biophotons.” In the ensuing century, biophoton discoveries moved from onion roots to bacteria, frog embryos, and humans. Today, scientist Nirosha Murugan is on a career-defining journey to learn more about the light. As she and her colleagues study this mysterious phenomenon, they find themselves racing from question to question, wondering what gives off light, where it might be coming from, and what, if anything, it could tell us about life, disease, and even death. EPISODE CREDITS: Hosted by - Molly WebsterReported by - Molly WebsterProduced by - Sarah Qariwith help from - Molly WebsterFact-checking by - Natalie MiddletonEPISODE CITATIONS:Videos -The “Life Flash” video!

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross dives deep into why Reddit has emerged as the most powerful organic marketing platform heading into 2025. From transforming million-dollar buying decisions to influencing AI language models like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews, Reddit isn't just a content site — it's a market-shaping force. Ross unpacks exactly how and why Reddit has become a SERP-dominating player, how brands can harness its authenticity-fueled power, and introduces his signature Reddit marketing framework: R.O.S.S (Reddit Operating System of Scale). Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The Power of a Single Reddit Thread - Deals are won or lost based on one Reddit post - Reddit is no longer just memes — it's shaping corporate decisions 2. The Rise of Reddit in Organic Search - Reddit ranked 2nd after Wikipedia for Google search traffic in late 2024 - Outperformed YouTube in search visibility - Took over bottom-of-funnel consideration traffic from platforms like G2 and Capterra 3. Why Traditional SEO is Failing - Marketers ruined trust in content with affiliate-driven blog posts - Reddit now draws 600M+ monthly visits from Google - 1,328% YoY growth in Reddit's search visibility 4. Google's Algorithm Shift & Reddit's Role - Reddit's authentic content aligns with Google's user-first approach - Google's $60M data licensing deal with Reddit (2024) - New "Forums" search tab prioritizing Reddit threads 5. Reddit vs Traditional Media & Review Sites - Reddit ranks for 5.7M+ transactional keywords - Competes with giants like Wirecutter and New York Times for product discovery - 5.1M overlapping keywords with major publishers 6. Reddit's Impact on AI Training - Reddit content now foundational for LLMs (Large Language Models) - Google, OpenAI, and others using Reddit content to train AI - AI outputs now reflect sentiment from Reddit conversations 7. How Reddit Influences AI Answers - Brand reputation on Reddit can directly influence AI-generated recommendations - Reddit as a real-time, user-driven knowledge base for AI Resources & Tools:

MIT just dropped a bomb: 95% of corporate AI initiatives are failing. Not struggling. Failing. And Sandy Carter knows exactly why. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, I sit down with Sandy, currently Chief Business Officer at Unstoppable Domains, former VP at Amazon Web Services, and the person who turned IBM's "social business" concept nobody understood into a $200 billion market. Sandy's written seven books, been named to every power list that matters (CNN's Top 10 Most Powerful Women in Tech, Forbes 50 Over 50), but what caught my attention is her philosophy: "AI First, Human Always." While everyone's either selling AI snake oil or running scared, Sandy's figured out something crucial. Companies aren't failing at AI because the technology doesn't work.

När Julius Caesar mördades den 15 mars 44 f.Kr. förväntade sig många att den romerska republiken skulle återupprättas. I verkligheten bevarades och vidareutvecklades många av hans reformer av hans adoptivson Augustus. Kejsardömet var ett faktum.Caesar och Augustus lade de grunden till kejsardömet efter århundraden av republik. Octavianus, senare Augustus, inledde sin karriär med blod på sina händer. När regimen stabiliserats fick vi Pax Romana – cirka 200 år av fred där litteratur och konst blomstrade med poeter som Vergilius, Horatius och Ovidius.I det femte avsnittet i Historia Nu:s sexdelade serie om Romarriket samtalar Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Flera av Caesars reformer var så framgångsrika att de överlevde hans död och sattes i system under kejsartiden. Ett tydligt exempel är den Julianska kalendern, infördes 45 f.Kr. och baserades på solåret med 365 dagar och skottdag vart fjärde år. Den ersatte den tidigare månbaserade kalendern och användes i över 1 600 år – kalendern vi använder idag har sin grund här, och juli är uppkallad efter honom.En annan viktig princip var en utvidgning av medborgarskapet till provinser som Gallien och Spanien, särskilt för dem som tjänat militären. Denna inkluderande strategi banade väg för en enhetlig identitet i riket, och nådde sin kulmen i Caracallas edikt år 212 e.Kr., som gav fullt medborgarskap till alla fria män i imperiet.Augustus, född Gaius Octavius och adopterad av Caesar, fullbordade övergången från republik till kejsardöme. Efter Actium‑segern 31 f.Kr. och att ha antagit titeln Augustus år 27 f.Kr., behöll han republiken som sken men styrde i praktiken enväldigt. Han erhöll imperium maius (överhög befälsrätt) och tribunicia potestas (rätt att sammankalla folkförsamlingen och lägga in veto), samt införde regelbundna folkräkningar.Augustus organiserade ett professionellt ämbetsmannasystem med kompetenta guvernörer, reformerade skattesystemet och stabiliserade myntet. Augustus byggde ett rikstäckande vägnät och postsystem, vilket förbättrade kommunikation och handel.Militärt omorganiserade han armén: legionerna minskades till 28, soldater fick fast tjänstgöringstid och pension. Han skapade pretoriangardet och använde klientstater som buffertzoner, vilket minskade behovet av militärt ständigt närvarande styrka.Augustus genomförde också sociala och religiösa reformer för att återuppliva romerska dygder: morallagar som gynnade äktenskap och barnafödande hos överklassen, återställde tempel, högtider och stärkte kejsarkulten – kejsaren hyllades som nästan gudomlig.Hans storslagna stadsförnyelse illustreras av uttrycket “Jag fann en stad av tegel – lämnade den i marmor.” Forum, tempel och monument byggdes rikstäckande. Dessutom inrättade han brandkår och polis (vigiles) i Rom.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

fWotD Episode 3059: Homer Simpson Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Friday, 19 September 2025, is Homer Simpson.Homer Jay Simpson is the main protagonist of the American animated television series The Simpsons. Part of the titular family, Homer made his television debut in the short "Good Night" on The Tracey Ullman Show on April 19, 1987. Cartoonist Matt Groening created and designed Homer while waiting in the lobby of James L. Brooks's office. Initially called to pitch a series of shorts based on his comic strip Life in Hell, Groening instead developed a new set of characters. After two years on The Tracey Ullman Show, the Simpson family received their own series, which premiered on Fox on December 17, 1989.Homer is the patriarch of the family; he is married to Marge, with whom he has three children, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. As the family's primary provider, Homer primarily works as a safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. He embodies numerous American working-class stereotypes: he is overweight, balding, immature, unintelligent, outspoken, aggressive, lazy, ignorant, unprofessional, and deeply fond of beer, junk food, and television. Despite these flaws, Homer is fundamentally a good-hearted man and fiercely protective of his family, especially during critical moments.In the shorts and early episodes of The Simpsons, Dan Castellaneta voiced Homer with a loose impression of Walter Matthau. However, starting with the second season of the full-length series, Homer's voice evolved into a more robust tone to better convey a broader range of emotions. Homer has also appeared in various Simpsons-related media, including video games, The Simpsons Movie (2007), The Simpsons Ride, commercials, and comic books, and has inspired a wide range of merchandise. His iconic catchphrase, the annoyed grunt "D'oh!", has been recognized in linguistics, appearing in The New Oxford Dictionary of English since 1998 and the Oxford English Dictionary since 2001.Homer is regarded as one of the most iconic and influential television characters of all time and is widely recognized as an American cultural icon. In 2007, Entertainment Weekly ranked Homer ninth on their list of the "50 Greatest TV Icons", and in 2010, placed him first on their list of the "Top 100 Characters of the Past Twenty Years". The Sunday Times referred to him as "the greatest comic creation of [modern] time", while TV Guide, in 2002, called him the second-greatest cartoon character (after Bugs Bunny). Castellaneta has received four Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance, along with a special-achievement Annie Award. In 2000, Homer and the family were honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:07 UTC on Friday, 19 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Homer Simpson on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Ivy.

rWotD Episode 3060: Disk buffer Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Friday, 19 September 2025, is Disk buffer.In computer storage, a disk buffer (often ambiguously called a disk cache or a cache buffer) is the embedded memory in a hard disk drive (HDD) or solid-state drive (SSD) acting as a buffer between the rest of the computer and the physical hard disk platter or flash memory that is used for storage. Modern hard disk drives come with 8 to 256 MiB of such memory, and solid-state drives come with up to 4 GB of cache memory.Since the late 1980s, nearly all disks sold have embedded microcontrollers and either an ATA, Serial ATA, SCSI, or Fibre Channel interface. The drive circuitry usually has a small amount of memory, used to store the data going to and coming from the disk platters.The disk buffer is physically distinct from and is used differently from the page cache typically kept by the operating system in the computer's main memory. The disk buffer is controlled by the microcontroller in the hard disk drive, and the page cache is controlled by the computer to which that disk is attached. The disk buffer is usually quite small, ranging between 8 MB and 4 GB, and the page cache is generally all unused main memory. While data in the page cache is reused multiple times, the data in the disk buffer is rarely reused. In this sense, the terms disk cache and cache buffer are misnomers; the embedded controller's memory is more appropriately called disk buffer.Note that disk array controllers, as opposed to disk controllers, usually have normal cache memory of around 0.5–8 GiB.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:15 UTC on Friday, 19 September 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Disk buffer on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Niamh.

The Heritage Foundation says it will "identify and target" Wikipedia editors over alleged bias. What does that mean for Wikipedia's future?

Blake and David examine several major developments affecting the accounting profession, including the proposed HIRE Act that would impose a 25% excise tax on offshore labor payments to accounting firms. They also look at how AI is transforming hiring practices at major firms like PwC, which is cutting graduate recruitment due to advancing technology and explore practical AI implementation strategies for accounting firms, moving beyond basic chatbots to integrated workflows. The show wraps up with a story about fraud at The Epoch Times - a $67 million money laundering scheme - and the ongoing costs of bad social media tax advice. SponsorsOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayRelay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/relay TeamUp - http://accountingpodcast.promo/teamupChapters(00:00) - Introduction and Personal Updates (00:48) - AI in Accounting: Challenges and Opportunities (04:57) - The Higher Act: Taxing Offshore Labor (05:23) - Feel-Good Story: The Oldest Marching Band Member (10:23) - Impact of AI on Job Market (26:33) - Gambling Scandal and AI in Government (36:22) - Expense Management Simplified (38:29) - Supreme Court and Tariffs Update (42:37) - Red Lobster's Downfall: A Case Study (45:37) - The Role of AI in Accounting Firms (01:03:04) - Epic Times CFO Charged with Money Laundering (01:08:38) - Conclusion and Announcements  Show NotesNew Moreno Bill Would Crack Down on Outsourcing, Fund American Workers - Senator Bernie Moreno https://www.moreno.senate.gov/press-releases/new-moreno-bill-would-crack-down-on-outsourcing-fund-american-workers/HIRE Act - A BILL https://www.moreno.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/The-HIRE-Act.pdfMoreno Bill to Crackdown on Foreign Outsourcing Blocked by Senate Democrats - Senator Bernie Moreno https://www.moreno.senate.gov/press-releases/moreno-bill-to-crackdown-on-foreign-outsourcing-blocked-by-senate-democrats/Offshoring is Screwed If This HIRE Act Thing Goes Anywhere But Let's Not Get Too Excited Yet - Going Concern https://www.goingconcern.com/offshoring-is-screwed-if-this-hire-act-thing-goes-anywhere-but-lets-not-get-too-excited-yet/PwC's U.K. chief admits he's cutting back entry-level jobs and taking a 'watch and wait' approach to see how AI changes work | Fortune https://fortune.com/2025/09/08/pwc-uk-chief-cutting-entry-level-junior-gen-z-jobs-ai-economic-headwinds-like-amazon-salesforce/AI takes entry-level jobs as Big Four slash graduate hiring https://bmmagazine.co.uk/news/big-four-cut-graduate-jobs-ai/PwC Cuts Graduate Hiring as AI Reshapes Entry-Level Careers - TechStory https://techstory.in/pwc-cuts-graduate-hiring-as-ai-reshapes-entry-level-careers/IRS assesses $162 million in penalties over false tax credit claims tied to social media | Internal Revenue Service https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-assesses-162-million-in-penalties-over-false-tax-credit-claims-tied-to-social-mediaSocial media claims cost taxpayers $162M, IRS says.

Shmuel Bak (Samuel Bak), the internationally renowned artist and Holocaust survivor, presented in a lengthy conversation with his friend, The Yiddish Voice co-host Sholem Beinfeld. Excerpts from Pucker Gallery's page about Bak: Samuel Bak was born in Vilna, Poland in 1933, at a crucial moment in modern history. From 1940 to 1944, Vilna was under Soviet, then German occupation. Bak's artistic talent was first recognized during an exhibition of his work in the Ghetto of Vilna when he was nine years old. While he and his mother survived, his father and four grandparents all perished at the hands of the Nazis. At the end of the war, he fled with his mother to the Landsberg Displaced Persons Camp, where he enrolled in painting lessons at the Blocherer School in Munich. In 1948, they immigrated to the newly established state of Israel. He studied at the Bezalel Art School in Jerusalem and completed his mandatory service in the Israeli army. In 1956, he went to Paris to continue his education at the École des Beaux Arts.... Bak has exhibited extensively in major museums, galleries, and universities throughout Europe, Israel, and the United States. He lived and worked in Tel Aviv, Paris, Rome, New York, and Lausanne before settling in Massachusetts in 1993 and becoming an American citizen. Bak has been the subject of articles, scholarly works, and over twenty books, most notably a 400-page monograph entitled Between Worlds. In 2001, he published his touching memoir, Painted in Words, which has been translated into four languages, and a biography entitled Art & Life: The Story of Samuel Bak was published in 2023.

A firecracker that initially fizzled with audiences but has increasingly crackled with succeeding generations of film lovers, Sweet Smell of Success today boasts a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Defying genre expectations, it has been described in the media as a film noir, a crime thriller, a comedy, a satire, a character study, and a drama. By any measure, this poison pen letter to the glitzy world of big city show business is bracing and entertaining. It features pungent dialogue, a ripping jazz score, balls-out performances from enthusiastically unlikeable characters played by Burt Lancaster and Tony Curtis, and top-notch location work in 1950s New York City strikingly shot in black and white. Can our panel of young film-lovers relate to this bygone world of martini-drinking, cigarette-smoking, woman-exploiting men on the make? Or will the not-so-sweet smell drive them away?

Cheap Sex: The Transformation of Men, Marriage, and Monogamy By: Mark Regnerus Published: 2017 280 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? A data-driven look at the modern dating and “hook-up” culture. As you can tell from the title, he argues that sex has become cheap, not so much in dollars and cents, but in the level of commitment it requires. He points to three reasons for this change: the pill, porn, and dating apps.  What's the author's angle? As I was reading this book, I was trying to remember where I had heard the name Regnerus before. It took me a while to get around to looking him up in Wikipedia, at which point I was reminded of the “New Family Structures Study”. He was the lead author on this study which claimed that children raised by a parent who had been in a same-sex relationship had worse outcomes than those raised by heterosexual parents. If you guessed, based on this, that he's a conservative, then you would be correct. However, that didn't really come through very much while reading the book.  Who should read this book? If you want data to back up the online arguments you've been making. Or if you're looking for a better understanding of the underlying reasons for the continued decline in fertility.  What Black Swans does it reveal? Most of the trends he described are continuing to worsen. Sex just continues to get cheaper. As bad as it is already, it's not crazy to imagine that VR, AI, and sex bots might really cause the bottom to drop out. Specific thoughts: Differing views of sex

När Julius Caesar korsade floden Rubicon år 49 f.Kr i strid med Romersk lag. inleddes ett inbördeskrig som blev kulmen på konflikten mellan två av republikens mest briljanta gestalter: generalen och populisten Caesar och retorikern och traditionalisten Cicero. Deras relation speglade republiken i sönderfall, där ideal ställdes mot ambition.Både Caesar och Cicero ville rikets storhet, men de hade helt olika visioner. Cicero ville rädda republiken genom lagen och vältaligheten, medan Caesar ville omforma den via personlig makt och folkligt stöd. Deras drama formade hela Roms framtid.Detta är fjärde av sex avsnitt i podden Historia Nu:s serie om Romarriket, där programledaren Urban Lindstedt samtalar med professor Ida Östenberg professor i antikhistoria vid Göteborgs universitet.Marcus Tullius Cicero, född 106 f.Kr. i Arpinum, föddes i enkla förhållanden men nådde senaten genom sin retorik och övertygelsen att rättsstaten var central för republiken. Julius Caesar, född sex år efter Cicero i en patricierfamilj utan större inflytande, steg via militära segrar, allianser i det första triumviratet och folkligt stöd till medborgarens absoluta topp.Deras väg korsades med både samarbete och konflikt. Cicero beundrade Caesars intellekt men fruktade hans maktambitioner. Caesar såg Ciceros inflytande över opinionen och närmade sig honom mer taktiskt än ideologiskt. Under inbördeskriget försökte Caesar vinna Cicero som allierad, men Cicero valde lojalt republikens institutioner och stödde Pompejus.Cicero stod för mos maiorum – de förfädersbundna traditionerna och en maktbalans kontrollerad av senaten. Caesar använde populistiska medel – direkt folkstöd och arméstyrka – för att kringgå senaten, vilket ledde till att han samlade diktatorisk makt. Efter att ha besegrat Pompejus blev Caesar diktator på livstid 44 f.Kr., och Cicero förlorade gradvis sitt politiska inflytande. Han höll sina berömda Philippicae-tal mot Marcus Antonius, men det var redan för sent: republiken var döende.Cicero mördades brutalt 43 f.Kr. på order av Antonius, medan Caesar tidigare fallit offer för en mordkomplott i senaten. Deras död symboliserade republikens slut. Kort därefter inleddes kejsartiden under Augustus – Caesars adoptivson – och republikens ideal blev historia.Även om de stod på motsatta sidor av historiens vind, har både Caesar och Cicero lämnat ett bestående avtryck. Caesar blev urbilden för den starke ledaren. Cicero inspirerade generationer av jurister och filosofer – särskilt under renässansen och upplysningen – och är en ständig påminnelse om balansen mellan frihet och makt.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna.

Paige Tills didn't set out to be a marketer. After starting in international relations and higher ed, she pivoted into business development at #samsales - where she built her way into marketing and ultimately grew into the role of VP of Marketing. Paige has built her role from the ground up, shaping the company's content engine, experimenting with paid and organic channels, and scaling what started as one newsletter into a multi-channel brand presence.In this conversation, we dive into Paige's journey, her lessons learned on newsletters, social, ads, webinars, YouTube, and AI, and what it takes to market with personality, precision, and scrappiness.Here's what we cover:Saying yes to pivots and building a career in unexpected placesHow #samsales scaled from one newsletter to a full content ecosystemZero-click content and why click-through isn't always the goalLinkedIn ads, thought-leader campaigns, and what not to do with targetingYouTube lessons: shorts, long-form, and CTAs that actually workWhy founder-led brands win - and what to do if you don't have oneMaking webinars engaging without the slide deck snoozefestEarly AI + LLM experiments: traffic, Wikipedia, and Reddit potentialThe role of personal storytelling and motherhood moments on LinkedInKey Links:Guest: Paige Tills: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paige-tills/Host: Jane Serra: https://www.linkedin.com/in/janeserra/––Like WIB2BM?

Det romerska imperiets snabba expansion satte press på republikens institutioner. Soldaternas växande lojalitet mot sina generaler snarare än mot staten gjorde hela samhället instabilt.Gaius Marius och Lucius Cornelius Sulla utlöste genom sin personliga rivalitet och maktkamp det första romerska inbördeskriget – en konflikt som bidrog till republikens erosion och banade väg för ett diktatoriskt styre, med brutala utrensningar som följd.I det tredje avsnittet av podden Historia Nu:s serie om Romarriket samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Ida Östenberg, professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Göteborgs universitet.Marius och Sulla representerade två diametralt olika politiska världar. Marius, mannen från Arpinum, reformerade armén så att även egendomslösa kunde värvas. Det försköt lojaliteten från staten till den enskilda generalen. Sulla, aristokratins man, gick brutalt till väga – han marscherade mot Rom och införde proskriptioner som rensade ut politiska motståndare.Gaius Marius gjorde sig först känd genom segrar över de germanska stammarna kimbrer och teutoner i slutet av 100-talet f.Kr. Genom att öppna armén för egendomslösa skapade han legioner lojala mot honom personligen – inte mot senaten. Han fick folkets stöd (populares) och valdes till konsul hela sju gånger – en unik bedrift.Lucius Cornelius Sulla, från den patriciska aristokratin, representerade optimaterna. När han som konsul år 88 f.Kr. fick överbefälet i öst mot kung Mithridates VI, drogs detta tillbaka genom senaten efter påtryckningar från Marius. Sulla svarade med att marschera mot Rom – något tidigare otänkbart – och tvingade Marius i exil. Det markerade inbördeskrigets början.Efter Sullas östresa återvände Marius tillsammans med Cinna, tog kontroll över Rom och inledde blodiga utrensningar. Marius dog kort därefter, 86 f.Kr., men Cinna fortsatte styret. När Sulla återvände 83 f.Kr. med sina veteraner utkämpades flera avgörande slag, bland annat vid Sacriportus och Collineporten (82 f.Kr.), där Marius den yngre besegrades och tog sitt liv.Som ensam makthavare utropade sig Sulla till diktator. Hans regim präglades av proskriptioner – offentliga listor över personer dömda till döden eller fredlöshet. Tusentals mördades och senaten rensades. Sulla återgav aristokratin makten och inskränkte folktribunernas inflytande. Även om han senare abdikerade hade han förändrat Roms politiska landskap för alltid.Under republikens förfall spelade slaveriet en central roll. Miljontals slavar – fångade i krig, födda i fångenskap eller sålda i desperation – bar upp det romerska samhället. Samtidigt som Marius, Sulla och senare Caesar kämpade om makten, vilade hela imperiets ekonomi på omfattande tvångsarbete.Omslag: Bröderna Tiberius och Gaius Gracchus var romerska folktribuner som verkade för omfattande jord- och samhällsreformer till förmån för de fattiga klasserna. En skulpterad framställning från 1800‑talet föreställande de två bröderna Gracchus, utförd av Jean‑Baptiste Claude Eugène Guillaume. Idag uppställd vid Musée d'Orsay i Paris. Wikipedia.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit smokeempodcast.substack.comInvestigative journalist Michael Tracey is hard to pin down, maybe because he doesn't play for one team. A journo in the old-fashioned “stick-poking” mode, Michael started debating Sarah on his own introduction before she was half-way through. Fair enough! We go on to discuss Charlie Kirk — whom Tracey sees as a “mouthpiece” for the administration — and then go deep on the Epstein Files, which Tracey tore into, in part, because no one else was. You might be surprised at the gap between the wild fantasy spun online and the facts on the ground. We disagree on a lot (who doesn't?), but Tracey has done some of the most honest journalism on Epstein — a case everyone talks about, and few people know. He's also stood up for free speech, something that's getting crushed as the right discovers their own powers of cancel culture.Also discussed:* Wikipedia suuuucks* Why Michael thinks Kirk is not a martyr* Pro tip: Don't bring up that Ann Coulter story from Michael's college years in your intro … * Charlie Kirk the podcaster vs. Charlie Kirk the campus debater* OK, well since the Ann Coulter story was already brought up, here it is …* What happens when your ACLU lawyer is drunk* The Jewish mafia of Ohio* Epstein Survivors, Inc.* The accusers in the Epstein saga are … complicated* Was Epstein murdered in prison? It's not impossible!Plus, Nancy on the erotic power of 16-year-old girls, Sarah on vigilante justice-by-internet, Michael explains Nintendo Switch 2, and much more!Marjorie Taylor Greene gets Michael thrown out of a press conference that Ro Khanna invited him to.

In this episode of Game Changers for Government Contractors, Michael LeJeune is joined by Jenny Karn and Rhi Ruff of Lumino to explore the surprising role Wikipedia plays in your government contracting success. Far from being “just an online encyclopedia,” Wikipedia feeds into Google, Siri, Alexa, social media verification, and even AI tools like ChatGPT. That means what's written on Wikipedia could be shaping how contracting officers, teaming partners, and potential buyers see your company. Whether you know it or not. Jenny and Rhi explain how Wikipedia pages are created, why accuracy matters, and how contractors can monitor and correct misinformation. They also share practical tips for developing a Wikipedia strategy that supports your broader media and AI presence. ----- Frustrated with your government contracting journey?

The novel has a convoluted plot about two distant cousins both named Allan Armadale. The father of one had murdered the father of the other (the two fathers are also named Allan Armadale). The story starts with a deathbed confession by the murderer in the form of a letter to be given to his baby son when he grows up. Many years are skipped over.
